Chapter 367 The troubled nobles (second update)
"Have you reviewed it yourself?" After looking at it carefully for a while, Fernando asked with a smile.
Lucian couldn't help but understand what he meant, and smiled: "Teacher, there is nothing subversive about this paper, it is just a supplementary paper to electronic discovery. You also know that I discovered that the vase was cursed by the induction of the electron flow, so I verified the special material used to make the vase by studying cathode rays."
Fernando then took the paper and complained casually: "Every time I read your paper, I have to deal with the troubles for you later, can't you write an ordinary paper normally?"
For Fernando, as long as it is not a horrific hypothesis of the level of "energy discontinuity", he is happy to see general subversive views to advance the process of exploring the world, but if he needs to deal with the aftermath of a subversive thesis, his irritable and eager personality will give him a lot of headaches.
Lucian was very happy to have a teacher help deal with the consequences of blowing out the magician's head, and he didn't want to bear this trouble himself at all, so after hearing Fernando's complaint at this time, he smiled and did not make any arguments.
After a long time, he finished reading half of it, and couldn't help but shake his head: "Morris will definitely hate himself, why don't you help him when Belak attacks and trap Afris in advance."
The paper is titled "A New Element Capable of Radiating Electron Streams and Two Other Types of Rays." In Fernando's view, the new element named "uranium" by Lucian is not important, what matters is that its radiation confirms that electrons come from atoms, thus establishing that atoms have an internal structure that illuminates a path to a dark microscopic world, an achievement worthy of the Holm Crown Prize.
"Teacher, that's not the point." Lucian reminded in a low voice.
Fernando raised his head, his red eyes were extremely sharp, and that's not the point?
"In addition to electrons, I don't know why special materials radiate a new element." Lucian tried to make his language vague and "wrong" to avoid revealing more.
"Radiating new elements?" Fernando suspected that he had heard it wrong, that one element could radiate out another?
So he read more and more seriously, looked at it, and his tone became stern: "Have you analyzed the composition of special materials, is this new element itself included in the special material?"
"After analyzing and using the 'Return Technique' and other magic circles to purify a small number of special elements, I found that it still radiates this new element that I named 'helium'. Although the purified material may still contain other undiscovered trace elements, it can be determined that it does not contain this gas or its alchemical substances." Lucian pointed to the last few pages of the paper.
"What secrets are hidden in the changes of the elements? Can they transform each other?" Fernando fell into deep thought, waited for a few minutes, and said in the same tone as always: "You are really shrouded in Lady Luck, and you can get this special material even if you are assassinated. I believe that by the end of the exploration, this will surely allow us to understand the mysteries of the generation and emergence of elements, as well as the mysteries of the birth of matter."
In keeping with the traditions of ancient magical empires, the council likes to invoke the names of various goddesses to describe different things, such as the essence of magic is called "magic goddess" and the harshest cold is called "ice and snow goddess", which is completely different from the gods of different churches such as the god of truth.
"Teacher, I don't want to submit this paper for the time being, and I plan to seal it for a few years like a miracle experiment." Lucian made his own request.
"Why?" Fernando was very puzzled, this paper does not have any subversive views and will not anger other magicians and churches, why not submit it? Wouldn't it be better to let more arcanists devote themselves to the exploration of the microscopic world and the exploration of the essence of matter earlier?
As he spoke, he flipped through the last few pages and saw Lucian's cursed magic ideas based on the "cursed" ray, the contribution of helium to ultra-low temperatures, and the structure of the two magics of "Evans' Cold Ray" and "Ice Goddess's Whip".
"Just to keep these magics a secret?" Fernando is very familiar with the difficulty of the latter two magics, and he is a pioneer in the field of heat, "reducing the lower limit of ultra-low temperature by more than ten degrees...... You can get the Ice and Snow Medal immediately after publishing it, so don't submit it?"
Hearing Fernando's words, Averes looked at the paper with burning eyes, as if he wanted to immediately pick up the quill and add his name to it.
"The principle of the last two ice and snow magic is relatively simple, as long as helium is discovered, someone will soon construct it. I want to use it as my trump card." Lucian said his reason.
Fernando smiled and shook his head: "Do you want to keep this simple magic a secret? It's difficult, Lucian, don't forget that Atlanta also took some of the materials, and the other part is in the Correctional Department, guess when they will find out?"
"Within three or four years." Lucian presented his own judgment.
Fernando smiled and said: "Future five? Has your cognitive world initially materialized?"
"Yes, it is initially substantiated when confirming that electrons are the internal structure of atoms." Lucian didn't dare to mention that it was when the energy was not continuous.
Fortunately, the discovery of electrons and the confirmation of the relationship between electrons and atoms are also a shocking breakthrough in the minds of arcanists, and it is definitely possible to bring about the initial materialization of the cognitive world, so Lucian said again in his heart, "Thank you for your vase, Mr. Belak."
Sure enough, the storm lord was not confused, and nodded slightly: "Then you have the possibility of being promoted to a high level within three or four years, if you don't have enough materials, you can go to my half-plane warehouse to find it. This paper will be temporarily sealed for two years, but I will notify Atlanta, lest he rush to submit the paper at that time, hey, it's okay to publish it two years later, submit it now, Morris will definitely use the excuse that 'discovering electrons' and 'confirming that electrons belong to the internal structure of atoms' are the same before and after the same achievement, and only award you an 'electron' ring."
"But this paper should not be kept secret for a few years, I heard that Timothy and Ulysse are both studying the composition of gases, and it seems that there are still gases in the air that have not yet been discovered."
Hearing the Storm Lord's words, Averice's eyes lit up in an instant, and he looked at Lucian intently, as if he wanted to encourage him to move the half-plane warehouse of the Storm Lord.
Lucian pretended not to see its gaze, although he was also very greedy for money, but he still couldn't be greedy in this kind of thing, if his wealth was enough and the council did not lack materials, it was best to rely on himself.
"In the past few years, let's focus on improving our magic strength first." Fernando finally advised.
…………
Lentat, Nexer Palace.
"We must stop the conflict between the church and the Magic Council!" Bald Duke James said loudly.
The great nobles of the Holm Kingdom who were in Rentat were urgently summoned by King Feltis and Prince Patrick to discuss what happened today.
The Speaker of the House of Lords, Duke Rex of Frenburg, looked at James coldly: "Stop? We try to maintain the balance so that the damn magicians can survive, and they just reward us with such things? I think it is a serious mistake to support them again!"
He wore a white wig, his beard was cleanly shaved, and the deep wrinkles at the corners of his eyes contrasted sharply with his sharp blue eyes, still as brave and powerful as his title "The King's Griffin".
"No matter how enlightened the nobles are, they will not completely abandon the church, and even the most conservative aristocrats should also understand that without the Magic Council, there would be no authority and status we have now!" Duke Russell of Wolfburg did not use vague words to talk about it, but directly put on the table the facts that everyone knew but would not bring up.
Suddenly, the conservative and enlightened nobles stopped arguing, and the palace was strangely quiet.
"Cough, Russell, please pay attention to your wording, our glory and status are the blessing of the Lord, the gift of the Lord, and our own efforts." Seeing King Feltis' eyes narrowed slightly, Chancellor of the Exchequer Haisong quickly spoke to break the silence.
Prince Patrick also said seriously: "This incident is mainly caused by the church, we cannot blindly blame the Magic Council, and similarly, we cannot watch our beautiful and rich territory be destroyed under the war, mediation is what we must do."
When it came to their own territory and the lofty status they had gained under the balance, the nobles slowly reached a consensus, and the few old and confused ultra-conservatives were unable to resist the overall situation and could only leave in anger.
After arranging the mediation tasks of the great nobles, in addition to the attendants, only the king and prince were left in the palace.
The old Feltis took a deep look at Patrick, shook his head, turned to leave, and said slightly blankly as he walked: "Where will the future of the kingdom and the future of the family go?"
The balance is too fragile, and discerning nobles can see this problem, but this is the best choice for them, so they can only pretend to be invisible and try to maintain it.
…………
In the carriage,
The Duke of Frenburg sighed suddenly.
Another nobleman sitting across from him and discussing with him asked suspiciously: "Your Excellency, Speaker?"
"The Magic Council is too powerful, and if we continue to indulge them, we will suffer sooner or later. James and the others are too short-sighted!" Rex looked out the carriage window at the street.
"Then why do you support mediation? Wouldn't it be better to let the church and the magic council go to war?"
Rex shook his head: "It is not in our interest to start an all-out war, we must wait for an appropriate opportunity to unite the church to cripple the magic council in the shortest possible time, and then we will support this crippled magic council to fight against the church. With the Northern Church present, this is our best choice. When the Magic Council develops again, we will repeat the previous method and keep its strength within the controllable range."
…………
"How long can this balance be maintained?" Bald Duke James asked in Russell's carriage.
Russell's eyes deepened: "One day, we will have to choose whether to cripple the Council of Magic or to uproot the power of the Southern Church, as the Northern Church controls the country. Before the demise of the Church of Truth, the Magic Council will definitely not change our status and rights, and such a large balance is easier to maintain, and it is the most difficult to maintain a small balance in one's own country.
"In this way, we won't be able to go up to Heaven Mountain." Count Haisong sighed.
"Paradise Mountain? Hey." James laughed.
…………
A few days later, the dangerous Alinge did not wait for the Truth Cult to go to war.
Lucian received a "call" from Florence: "Lucian, this weekend, I will present you with the Holm Crown Award at the Alinge branch."
It has been changed, ask for a monthly pass~ This chapter will be transitioned, and it will be updated at half past twelve tomorrow and seven o'clock
