The hand was usually firm and strong, and it could accurately dissect a dead body into different parts and complete any difficult spell gestures. However, at this moment, it was trembling as if it had lost control of itself, even though it was just turning a thin page.
"Ridiculous! Despicable! How can this kind of paper be published in the bulletin?! " A cold wind was blowing, and a deep and hoarse voice sounded, as if it contained endless anger and hatred, "Lucien Evans X, the Will of Elements, those bastards who don't know anything about life, how dare they question the structure of a human body? If I see them, I'll teach them a lesson! "
Menshak had forgotten that the bulletin was just a newspaper that shared the results of each research team. There was no review or standard.
"No, I have to do the experiment right now and expose this despicable lie!" Menshak suddenly stood up. His facial muscles and skin made of human bodies could not suppress the black smoke coming out of the white bones underneath.
Similar scenes happened in most of the research teams. Larry choked on his milk and coughed violently. Timothy pushed his glasses up, but he used too much strength and his glasses fell on his forehead. Ulysses spat out the bread in his mouth onto the report.
However, after the shock, the arcanists who were good at elemental magic all finished their breakfast and went to do the experiment. The necromancers, on the other hand, had different reactions. Some tore up the bulletin in anger, some walked around anxiously but did not dare to do the experiment, some tried to suppress their emotions to inform the leaders of the Hand of Paleness, and some wanted to teach Lucien a lesson with hatred …
…
In the magic lab, there was a loud noise, followed by the sound of metal objects falling to the ground. Menshak was floating in the air as if he was frozen. The red flame in his eyes was so dim that it almost went out. He stared blankly at the experiment utensils and white solid particles on the ground, and his right hand was holding the magic test tube that he had just crushed. The glass shards that had been processed by special magic pierced into his palm, but they still could not arouse any reaction from him.
After a long time, Menshak murmured to himself, "No, no! There must be something wrong with my experiment. How can the Life Force Theory be wrong?! It doesn't make sense! It doesn't make sense! It doesn't make sense! It doesn't make sense! "
"But how can this experiment use non-living substances to synthesize carbamide? It doesn't have any life force in it! "
Menshak questioned and argued as if he was suffering from schizophrenia. It was as if he was weeping softly, and it took him a long time to calm down.
After another period of time, the flame of life in Menshak's eyes slowly recovered. He said with lingering fear, "If my cognitive world collapsed, I would've lost control of my spiritual power, and my body and soul would've been blown apart … Thankfully, I'm not too conservative. I remember that Mr. Rogelio once said that, strictly speaking, carbamide is not a living substance."
"However, is the Life Force Theory really correct?"
The fact that Menshak could be assigned to this research project meant that his arcana level was not bad. After the initial shock subsided, he subconsciously doubted the basic theory of necromancy. Similar things had happened more than once in the Congress of Magic.
However, the moment he doubted the Life Force Theory, Menshak felt the Soul Flame in his phylactery shake violently, as if it was about to be extinguished.
"No, no, I can't meditate during this time. I have to stay calm." Menshak knew that it was caused by the inner conflict that he himself could not discover. He could only rely on time or stronger evidence to resolve it. Of course, when the time came, whether the Life Force Theory would win the battle, or whether it would defeat him and reconstruct his cognitive world, or whether it would be too difficult for him to meditate or even completely destroy him, it was hard to tell.
He did not need to breathe, but he habitually took a deep breath. "If I can't defeat myself, then I'll go and defeat Lucien Evans. If I can't move forward, then he can't live either!"
Because of Rogelio's precaution and the lack of impact of carbamide, the most conservative necromancers in the research groups did not lose control of their spiritual power and their heads did not explode. However, most of them angrily declared that if anything serious happened to them, they would not let go of Lucien Evans.
In the room next to Raventi's, Lucien was discussing the effect of the three alchemical substances with the two elves who had postponed their return date. His Host Star of Destiny indicated that he was in danger.
Lucien went to the bathroom and used the Morning Light Crystal to cast the Astrology spell. The conclusion he got was that there were many dangers ahead, but there was a smooth path that could help him avoid most of them.
"How many days will it take for Felipe to submit his paper?"
Lucien thought as he walked back to the living room. He was surprised to see that Arcelion and Iristine were both reading the report in front of them. Their eyes were filled with confusion, and it seemed that they were not in a good mood.
"What happened during the ten minutes I was using the Astrology spell?" Lucien tried to greet them. "Your Highness? Her Royal Highness? "
Arcelion raised his head, and his beautiful face was filled with hatred and disgust, "Mr. Evans, you can synthesize carbamide? You overthrew the Life Force Theory? "
"You know the school of Necromancy?" asked Lucien in surprise. The two elves could read arcana papers?
"Our guards got the news from the Grand Elder." "Arcelion," he replied automatically, observing courtesy.
Iristine, on the other hand, said angrily, "Human beings, cows, sheep, magic beasts, and plants are all gifted with vitality by nature. How can you synthesize living substances with some gas and some minerals?"
"It depends on how you define living substances …" Lucien finally understood that in the view of some druids, all living things were made of living substances, and they had nothing to do with non-living substances. However, it seemed that this view was not the core of how they sensed and used the will of nature, so there was no danger of cognitive contradiction.
"No matter how you define it, Mr. Evans, you're an evil, fearless demon!" Iristine said angrily. Her last good impression of Lucien had turned into the most negative one.
"There's still a 'demon', well, two 'demons' waiting for you." Lucien was not in the mood to argue with the two elves about arcana.
… …
Pesor threw the report on the desk, and the two soul flames in the eye sockets of his white skull flickered violently. "Lucien Evans has submitted the experiment of synthesizing carbamide!"
Pesor, Tina-Timos, and the other two members of the Arcana Review Board were relatively open-minded in the school of Necromancy. Therefore, the Lord of the Undead, as a grand arcanist, did not hide the professor's information from them. He told them in advance so that they could be mentally prepared.
Since it was the Lord of the Undead, who had the highest authority among all necromancers, and the four members had good arcana ideas, it did not take them long to accept the result of the experiment. They also tried to reverse the result by fine-tuning some of the magic effects.
Standing in front of Pesor, Rogerio's face was extremely gloomy, "I think it's because of the attack on Felipe and Lucien Evans. Maybe he already knew that we're close to success, so he asked his student to do this experiment in advance to see if we can find out what's going on. By then, even if we don't have a decisive result, Lucien Evans will be the one who will be hated. If there is, he can even add his disciple's name and share the arcana credits. Pesor, Tina-Timos, didn't you see that Lucien Evans hid the experiment in the paper? "
After hearing the news, Rogelio hurried to Sariva with Felipe.
"Meneses is not doing well. We have to solve this problem as soon as possible." Tina-Timos looked at the other senior members of the Hand of Paleness in the room.
Meneses was another member of the Arcana Review Board, and he was an authority in the field of human body refinement.
Rogerio smiled bitterly, "In Heidler, Aurelio was also very irritable. He didn't look like a necromancer at all. It seemed that he wanted to kill Lucien Evans."
Aurelio was another senior member of the Hand of Paleness. He was a member of the Affair Committee, a level six arcanist, and a seventh-circle necromancer. He had great potential, and he once studied in Demigod-lich's Demiplane Magic Tower.
"Felipe, how's your research going? If there's no progress, make all the data available to the public. We'll join the research and try to get a decisive result as soon as possible. " Pesor looked at Felipe seriously, who was wearing the Immortal Crown again. Felipe still looked pale and sickly, and he was still wearing his signature long black coat.
Felipe answered with his usual gloomy face, "Mr. Pesor, I've made a major breakthrough. In three days, I can synthesize a kind of fatty acid artificially."
"I hope you're telling the truth, or I won't care what kind of secret relationship you have." As the vice president of the Hand of Paleness, Pesor had the right to warn Felipe.
Felipe bowed seriously, "Gentlemen, I'll leave now. I need to focus on the experiment."
After getting permission, Felipe walked out of the room and went downstairs. The corner of his mouth was slightly lifted.
"How's the investigation going?" Pesor asked Rogelio.
Rogelio shook his head seriously, "Even the Astrologer in the Tower didn't make much progress. It seemed that the prophecy was interfered by some powerful force, and the force was not something we're familiar with. Otherwise, the result would not be so vague."
"There are more secrets in this world than we thought," Pesor sighed. "The law of the world is also the same. One year ago, no one would have thought that the Life Force Theory, which was as stable as the earth, would become like this."
…
The next morning, the papers of two senior-rank arcanists appeared on the first page of the briefing.
The Argument on the Nature of Urea — Meneses.
The Significance and Drawbacks of Synthetic Urea — Aurelio.
Since Lucien's paper did not mention the Life Force Theory at all, they could not find anything to attack. Therefore, they simply stopped talking about the results of the project and pointed out the problems directly.
This kind of action was within the scope of discussion that the grand arcanists acquiesced to. Therefore, the debate between the arcanists who were good at elemental magic and the arcanists who were good at necromancy magic was raised, and the original purpose was forgotten. Malfurion and the other druids also did not pay attention to the increase of the food production but focused on the big debate.
A huge wave was raised in Sariva town. The briefing for several days was full of smoke and smoke.
However, Lucien, who caused all this, made a statement that he did not know much about the Life Force Theory, so he would not participate in the debate. The necromancers were overjoyed. They thought that Lucien was backing out because he was scared. Therefore, the debate became more and more heated.
…
"Lucien Evans, you blasphemous heretic! You liar! You liar! I'm going to put him on trial! " In the study of Philibell, the Grand Cardinal of Holm parish, Vaharall, the Inquisitor, couldn't help but roar after reading the briefing a few days ago.
To encourage discussion, the Church's spies in the Congress of Magic had sent out the complete briefing, but it was delayed by one day.
The Life Force Theory was one of the foundations of the Divine Life Theory. Therefore, after reading Lucien's paper, Vaharall was very angry. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
