Chapter 348
"What is something strange?" Lucian asked knowingly, feeling that his acting skills were getting better and better.
However, it was only a few days before he discovered something, or was it beyond Lucian's expectations, he thought it would take at least a month or two, was he arranging it too detailed and accurate?
Roque said a little excitedly: "I think we might have discovered something new, Lucian, it's really great. Hurry up, get to the laboratory, you will know what it is when you see it!"
He himself is a person who thinks freely and unrestrainedly, and at this time he bluntly exploded with foul language.
Such a discovery may not be an outstanding result for Lucian, each of his papers has received a second-level evaluation, either winning a round of praise or setting off a turbulent discussion, in just a few years from one arcane point to a fifth-level arcanist, outstanding among the younger generation, even many magicians who have lived for two or three hundred years do not dare to compare with him in this regard.
But for arcanists and magic apprentices below the intermediate level, a new discovery often means a basic reward of at least ten arcane points, not to mention that the new discovery will surely stimulate many people's enthusiasm for exploration, and the quoted points are a considerable amount of data. Even if a few people share, in two or three months, they may be able to break through the bottleneck and become a second-level arcanist, or even enter the intermediate level in a year or two, laying a solid foundation for improving their magic level.
Why didn't Roque get excited?
"Calm down, Roque, calm down." Lucian interrupted his magic analysis, tightened his magic robe, and followed Roque to the laboratory next door.
"Lucian, I am too discerning, and studying with you, a genius arcanist, is indeed full of surprises. I think in a few months, when I change to the second-level arcane badge and return to school, those idiots in the electromagnetic department will definitely shake their jaws......" Roque chattered endlessly showing the nature of his words, but his thinking was too jumpy, completely forgetting to describe his new discoveries, and his admiration for Lucian was beyond words.
Since it can "create lightning" in the air without much influence, electromagnetic magicians have been subconsciously ignoring the phenomenon of gas discharge.
Lucian curled his lips quietly, although it was not clear whether Roque found cathode rays (electron flow) or plasma phenomena (plasma), but he was too excited, right? Those things must not scare him to death in the future?
However, Roque and Lazar are still very incomplete in their meditation environment, and they are more receptive to new theories than most intermediate and high-level arcanists, and they are very good potential supporters of cognition that the world will not collapse.
Mr. Planck, who was the first on Earth to make the energetic subon hypothesis, once famously said that a new scientific truth cannot be won by convincing its opponents and making it understand, and its victory is mainly due to the fact that its opponents finally die and the new generation familiar with it grows up.
Of course, for the Magic Council, every high-level magician is an important cornerstone that is impossible to have, and being able to get one less headshot is a very big gain.
The renovated laboratory shines with a silver-white metallic sheen, countless cold lines form complex runes, black threads and pipes are arranged in a very artistic way, and hands and claws made of metal or magical corpses are hung from the ceiling, allowing magic apprentices to avoid dangerous operations.
At Lucian's special application, the alchemy platform and magic circle have been added to defend against curses and filth, because many magicians are weakened and died by unknowingly being "cursed" during experiments. At the same time, Lucian knew very well that the magic circles he had repeatedly selected to protect against curses were all composed of lead, otherwise if one day he "died young" due to radioactive damage, the joke would be big.
"Quick, repeat the experiment just now to Lucian." Roque took Lucian to the Discharge Magic Circle and ordered his group of Splinter and Heidi to demonstrate the experiment. Lazar is already waiting here.
The two unstable magic apprentices were not selected by Jerome to participate in the ultra-low temperature matter change experiment that required patience, but now they accidentally discovered something new when they followed Mr. Roque to complete the experimental project assigned by Mr. Evans, so they were very excited and excited, as if they had seen themselves wearing the official Arcanist badge.
Splinter first activated another magic circle, extracting most of the gas in the discharge magic circle, leaving it in a fairly thin state, and then Heidi activated the discharge magic circle, causing it to generate a high voltage.
The gas discharge emitted light, but what was strange was that on the glass opposite the cathode magic circle, a green glow also flashed, and when Heidi stopped the magic circle running, the green glow disappeared accordingly.
"Lucian, you see, nothing is emitted on the surface of the cathode magic circle, and there has been no similar paper before, maybe it is an invisible ray that has never been discovered." Roque looked at Lucian expectantly, a little nervously waiting for his answer.
In the minds of most middle and low-level arcanists, Lucian is already an authority in arcane and should be able to judge something through this phenomenon.
Lazar, Heidi, and Splinter also held their breath at the same time, uneasy.
The scene suddenly became a little frozen, just like Lucian, Tang Pu, Afrith, and others when facing the storm lord.
Sure enough, it was a cathode ray, and Lucian breathed a sigh of relief.
This is a kind of electron flow through which the existence of electrons can be discovered, revealing the divisible and internal structure of atoms, which is a subversive research result of current atomism!
However, there is still a long way to go to prove that cathode rays are electrons and internal particles of atoms, and there are many experiments to be done.
Lucian smiled and shook his head: "Before the experiment is confirmed, it is just a hypothesis, the only thing that can be certain is that no one has discovered this in the past discharge experiments, but we cannot rule out the possibility that rays are the electromagnetic waves and particle flows we are familiar with. We now need to design different experiments to verify it."
"Each of you participates in research, and experiments of your own design can be written into papers and published independently."
As he spoke, Lucian turned on the discharge magic circle, and when the green glow appeared on the opposite glass, he put an obstacle between the two, and suddenly, a corresponding shadow appeared on the glass, confirming the relationship between the glow and the discharge magic circle.
"Okay!" Roque and the others all replied with great excitement, both expectation and gratitude for Lucian's kindness. He actually allowed members of the institute to publish papers independently, unlike other research projects, whether the leader personally designed the experiment or not, whether he supervised the completion or not, he must be the first author of the final paper.
And if cathode rays are rays that have never appeared before, then the relevant experimental papers of themselves and others will definitely be cited, even if they are not as good as the paper that discovered cathode rays themselves, it is a considerable integral.
For the paper on the discovery of cathode rays, they all fully agreed that Lucian was the first author, not only because he was the host of the atomic research institute, but also because he arranged and arranged the entire experiment by himself.
Seeing their eagerness to try, Lucian smiled slightly and said, "I will join you too, Jerome and the others can also take time to experiment in their private time. By the way, I will announce several regulations of the Institute of Atomic Studies: First, if it is my own research idea, design magic experiments, and independently sign when publishing papers, I will not have the cheeky possession; second, members are not allowed to publish the remaining items privately, and must be signed and reviewed, which is clearly stipulated by the council; 3. A regular meeting will be held every Monday to discuss the progress of their experiments and research."
Because it was a specific project, Lucian turned the monthly meeting into a weekly meeting.
After saying a few words, Lucian suddenly felt like a "mentor" and "boss", and laughed dumbly in his heart.
Regarding the regulations proposed by Lucian, Lazar, Roque and others had no objection, but thought that Lucian was really a good person!
…………
Due to the sensation caused by the last issue of "Arcane", even if Lucian's paper has not yet been officially published, many high-level and intermediate arcanists with deep relationships have also learned through their own news channels that the proposer of the formula, Lucian Evans X, has completed the construction of the meaning of the formula's arcane, so they have borrowed this paper one after another.
The city of "Heidler" in the Kingdom of Holm, the headquarters of the Pale Hand.
After being promoted to a high rank, Felipe, who had been concentrating on constructing magic in his soul, put his hands in the pockets of his black trench coat and quietly looked at the quiet light gray outside the magic tower.
"I didn't expect that the organization still hid such a big secret, and it actually discovered the Necromancer, a xenoplane space that the council didn't even know."
Promoted to a high level and unlimited potential, Felipe was quickly included in the core of the Pale Hand, learned about the existence of the Necromancer, and knew that it was a strange world densely populated with the undead, which had a certain projection relationship with the real world, and many of the undead in it still had wisdom, and the name "Necromancer" was translated from their language.
Since connecting to the Necromancer has significant buffs to many necromancers, and it is easier to summon high-level undead, the "Pale Hand" has covered up this secret and carried out unhurried routine exploration.
In the light gray silence, a brightly colored parrot flew over, with a stack of parchment hanging from its neck.
"Mr. Felipe, the paper you want." The parrot stopped on Felipe's outstretched right hand.
Felipe nodded slightly, grabbed a handful of pearl rice grains on the windowsill with his left hand and fed it, and thought silently in his heart: "Has he really finished explaining the formula?"
When the parrot flew away, Felipe opened the paper. When he saw the rank five arcanist in front of Lucian's name, his pale face seemed to be a little worse. Although in the past two years, experiments on artificially synthesized living matter have brought him a lot of arcane points, but there is still a full thousand points away from the threshold of level six, and like Lucian, it is still level five, and it has not significantly surpassed him.
After reading it carefully, Felipe gradually frowned: "Such an assumption, does the professor want to be attacked by the magicians of the Energy Essence Sect?"
Unlike astrology, electromagnetic, force field, heat and other factions that value continuity, the main composition of the cognitive world has nothing to do with the form of energy, so there is no serious sense of cognitive wavering.
In fact, for Felipe, it is very difficult to read papers on thermal radiation, they are all things he is not good at, and he almost can't understand them.
…………
In the Kingdom of Briana, a mustachioed elegant magician was furious as he looked at the paper in his hand.
"Can such a paper pass the review? Are the other members of the audit committee afraid of Fernando behind him? Ridiculous! You actually made such an assumption!" Archmage Roland reprimanded resentfully.
He paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, and quickly sat back behind his desk: "No, I want to write a paper to refute him! Tear his assumptions to pieces!"
When it came to the quill, Roland was suddenly stunned, because Lucian had already emphasized that it was just a hypothesis and did not seem to insist on anything, and if he wanted to refute him, he had to find another formula to explain it, rather than writing from the perspective of energy discontinuity.
As for the other explanation, I have been having a headache for several days and have no direction.
"Forget it, just let his paper be quietly ignored." Roland put down the quill.
Revised.
