A few days later.
The silver-gray tower went straight into the sky, with smooth lines all over, shimmering with a cold metallic luster, which had an inexplicable flavor compared to most of the high-end slightly gloomy and gloomy mage towers, and seemed to be quite harmonious with the vast starry sky, which was obviously different from all the current architectural styles.
"As expected of a great musician, the Magic Tower also has a bit of art and fantasy." A few years later, Roque, who was already a three-ring magician, still jumped out in the same way.
As an arcanist who is good at astrology, it is inevitable that the magic tower will be built higher as an astrological platform, but this shape and color are strange in Alin'e's many unique magic towers, and it doesn't seem to match Lucian's quiet and calm temperament, but thinking that he is still a musician, the magician invited to the banquet is also relieved.
Louise, who had a delicate appearance, admired this magic tower very much, at least closer to her aesthetics than the black tower and the eerie castle, so she smiled and said, "Mr. Evans, you seem to be quite good at architectural design, and you must give me advice when I renovate the garden villa one day."
Even if Lucian has always said that she doesn't need to be so polite, she still calls Mr. Evans meticulously, and after becoming the famous radio anchor "Nightingale", she is not short of money in the second ring magician stage, so she did not treat herself badly to buy a garden villa in the urban area of Alinge, where every inch of land is at a premium.
"I don't know if Evans, did you name this magic tower?" Samantha had an indifferent expression, as if asking casually.
Normally, unless it is a half-plane or a place like the council headquarters, no magician will be idle to name the magic tower, except for the artist.
Lucian smiled and stepped on the steps: "Anyway, I call it 'Tower of Babel'."
"Babel......" Lazar, Heather and others repeated this pronunciation in confusion and could not find a matching word.
K just wanted to ask, but when he saw Lucian's smile and silence, he immediately understood that he didn't want to reveal it, it should be his own little secret.
"Welcome back, my master, welcome, distinguished guests, I am the brave, loyal, and honest Pinocchio." The crisp voice of alchemical life sounded.
Lucian pointed to the silver-gray metal door that slowly opened: "This is Tarling's 'Pinocchio'."
Lazar and the others, who still didn't understand the meaning of the name, smiled and shook their heads, greeted Pinocchio one by one, and then walked into the hall and saw a metal statue in the shape of a wheel in the center of the hall.
"This is the 'wheel of history'." Lucian introduced the statue with a bad taste.
This humor is no different from the world, and Roque was the first to laugh: "Lucian, you are really ambitious, but how can the future great arcanist who can propose the 'New Alchemy' not have ambition and confidence, whether it is the Southern Church or the Northern Church, they will all be crushed by the wheel of history!"
"History is tortuous and repeated, but it will eventually move forward." Lucian changed the description and said in a relaxed mood. With this magic tower, I can be regarded as having the first true home in another world. Here, cooperating with the magic tower by himself is enough to defend against the attack of a nine-ring person.
Samantha nodded slightly: "Evans, you are more sober than I imagined, I thought that after you proposed 'New Alchemy' and led the magicians to truly come into contact with the mysteries of matter, they would become a little prouder."
During this time, although the special supplement "New Alchemy" of the "Arcane" journal has not yet been released, magicians like Samantha have already read this "era-changing" masterpiece.
After reading it, Samantha, Rachel, Larry, Ulysses, and others were heartfelt admiration and frustration. They used to regard Lucian as a difficult opponent among magicians of the same generation to catch up, and while admiring him, they still regarded him as a target and a driving force to move forward, but as soon as "New Alchemy" came out, they suddenly understood that Lucian was no longer on the same level as them, he belonged to the level of legendary magicians such as Douglas, Brooke, Hathaway, and Klaus, and they didn't even let them see their backs.
This made them feel powerless and depressed for a while.
"To despise one's own enemy is to despise one's own life." Lucian glanced at Samantha and smiled, "And I'm not as genius as you think, I have long said that the atomic realm is a completely new field, and any discovery here may be related to the mystery of matter. In this field, there is no authority for the time being, there is no difference in magical strength, as long as the experimental conditions are sufficient, amazing discoveries may be obtained, and I am just one step ahead of you, you may not be able to catch up, young and not conservative is the greatest capital."
Samantha looked at Lucian's deep and calm eyes and felt that he was serious, not polite modesty, so she showed a smile: "It's a pity that I'm not good at elemental realms."
Larry, K, Lazar and others nodded thoughtfully, in the past, when they heard Lucian say this, there was still a taste of encouragement, but now, the "New Alchemy" has been put in front of them, this is indeed a realm belonging to "gods"!
Lucian pointed to the sky: "The macroscopic world is equally important."
"Teacher, can you take a look at your laboratory?" Before Samantha could answer, Heidi asked first, full of curiosity.
Lucian did not refuse, and took them to the basement floor by elevator, passing through the spare energy room, the restraint room, and the underground magic garden, and arrived at the vast laboratory.
Everyone had seen most of the magic circles and alchemy devices, but in the center of the laboratory, the two silver semi-circular metal boxes placed in the strong magnetic vacuum magic circle made them a little confused.
And these two metal boxes engraved with magic patterns seem to have similarities in shape to the entire magic tower, and they also exude an inexplicable smell.
"This is an electromagnetic cyclotron...... If you want to build it, you can exchange it for the design I submitted." Lucian probably explained the principle and tempted them without a trace.
Although this magic tower far exceeded the budget had a special inclination of the council, and many advanced materials were cheap to the level of medium materials, Lucian still spent three years of savings and the rewards of "New Alchemy" to make it much easier to upgrade the magic tower in the future, so it is currently in need of arcane points to supplement.
This made Lucian have to sigh that his promotion was too fast, even if there were many money-making projects and many arcane point rewards, but there was still a big gap compared to those high-level magicians who had lived for hundreds of years, especially his magic tower was the best for everything, and there were more than ordinary high-end and current needs.
"What is this?" Larry looked at the electromagnetic cyclotron excitedly, and then pointed to the sealed box connected to the transmitter and asked, which seemed to contain many magic circles in the thermal field.
Lucian pointed to the observation device and recording magic circle on it: "This is an auxiliary alchemy device I designed, called the Cloud Room."
"Cloud room?" K's honest face showed obvious doubts.
Lucian smiled and said: "After turning on the alchemy device, saturated steam will appear inside, as long as there are charged particles passing through, ionization will occur, and liquid beads will condense with the trajectory of charged particles as the core, thus forming distinct traces to help us observe and record the trajectory of the particles."
"Why didn't I think of this!" Ulysses, who was also good at heat, slapped the back of his left hand, the particles were too small to clearly observe and record, which was a big problem in the research of the atomic field.
Louise and Heidi said at the same time: "Can you take a look?"
Lucian nodded, turned on the alchemy device, turned on the electromagnetic cyclotron, and then asked them to observe the situation inside through the magic circle.
The space was dim, as if there was nothing, and suddenly, the white airflow appeared out of thin air, and the trajectory was extremely wonderful, and in strong contrast, it was so beautiful that it was shocking.
The laboratory suddenly lost any sound.
…………
After visiting the laboratory, Lucian took them into the banquet hall and waited until high-level magicians such as Ravendi, Gaston, and Isabella arrived to officially start the celebration banquet.
In a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, Lucian played seven or eight piano pieces in a row, and also played two violin melodies, which made the guests feast.
After the prelude to the banquet, everyone began to talk casually, Lucian looked at the full hall of guests, and suddenly felt inexplicably lonely, some of which missed Alto's friends.
Looking for an opportunity, Lucian slipped onto the balcony and turned on the electromagnetic messaging.
"Good evening, congratulations on the completion of your magic tower." Natasha's smiling voice came not long after Lucian opened it.
Lucian also smiled and said: "Good afternoon, we are celebrating a banquet."
"It's a pity that I can't participate, I can only say congratulations, hehe, fallen angels, the Pope is really creative." After talking to Lucian for a long time, Natasha also learned a lot of new vocabulary.
Lucian said solemnly: "I am just studying particles in the microscopic realm and have no other purpose, but does this result mean that the God of truth gave authority to all things themselves after creating the world, and was only responsible for spiritual sustenance?"
For a better future, Lucian has been slowly changing Natasha's religious views.
"So, you mean that God is in our hearts, and the church is lying?" Natasha didn't seem to care much about the authenticity, as long as Lucian didn't really say blasphemous words, she wouldn't get serious.
Lucian said without hesitation: "Of course, do you think Ms. Meredith is also evil?"
Natasha laughed lowly: "Okay, that's not the point, the point is that after mentioning that you are a fallen angel, I suddenly want to see you wear an angel costume in an opera, preferably a pair of wings."
"I remember that angels' costumes were very neutral......" Lucian pierced her little thoughts.
Natasha laughed twice guiltily: "By the way, why is the quality of my phone call with Granny Hathaway not as good as it is now?"
"Because there are still many problems to be solved on the communication planet, Speaker Douglas has been deeply troubled in recent years." So the plan for artificial planets to form constellations is far behind expectations.
Natasha tsked: "Then the quality of our call...... Feelingly, do you know what the problem is?"
"Hey." Lucian smiled and did not answer.
Natasha also did not ask questions sensibly, but sighed: "That mysterious space has appeared, and my teacher has been summoned there by the Pope. When I think of the legendary battlefield, my blood boils, but unfortunately I don't have the strength to join, but the Pope has also issued an order to prepare the nobles of the Sky Knight and above.
"If one day comes, I will lead them in as the commander of the nobles of Vaorit."
At this time, either the Grand Duke or she must have someone come forward, otherwise they will not be able to convince the public.
"Actually, I want to go see it too." Lucian implicitly cared about the authenticity.
Natasha laughed and said: "Forget it, no one in the legend has a grudge against me, and the Holy Spirit Pastor and Epic Knight of the church will do it as soon as they see you, you will really get into trouble!"
After chatting for a while, Lucian, as the host, could not snub the guests, so he asked John about their situation and took the initiative to stop the call.
As soon as Lucian turned around, he saw Samantha looking at him from a distance on the other side, holding steamed fish in his hand - this was Lucian's improved food and was eagerly loved by the guests.
"Although I can't hear what you're saying, the expression on your face tells me that you're not the kind of person who studies arcane and magic to the point of dullness. That girl is so happy." Samantha came over, sighed slightly disappointed, and then turned away without hesitation.
In the Magic Council, the proportion of single magicians is higher than that of the general group, but marriage is still the mainstream, but some magicians have lived for a long time, and their previous wives have died, and they have also lost their desire due to transformation into lichs, etc., so they have returned to singleness, and both husband and wife are strong.
The Grand Arcanists are the group with the lowest marriage rate, Douglas is single, Fernando is single, Hathaway is single, Helen is single, Mrs. Vicente died early (it is rumored that his dream is to resurrect his wife, the real resurrection), Mrs. Brooke fell in the church and was assassinated, and only Oliver is still happy.

Night plateau, underground cave.
The Great Elder Augustus was concentrating on praying to the god of steam, and as the years passed, the Night Plateau became more and more dangerous, and he didn't know when he would be guided.
It has been changed.
