Everyone present was at least a senior-rank sorcerer. Even though Lucien's description was simple, abstract, and vague, it did not stop them from recognizing the value of this direction. It was a breakthrough that could further integrate the school of Illusion into the current arcana system, and it was of great significance.
Thompson and Lacey Carter suddenly felt that it was unreal. It was the first time that Lucien had participated in the regular meeting, and he had already made such a shocking discovery in the fields of Illusion and Electromagnetism. He was indeed a genius. As far as they could remember, only a few grand arcanists had similar experiences. Also, was Lucien's specialty in Astrology, Illusion, and Electromagnetism?
"After Roland accepted the Energy Essence Theory, he guessed that human thinking activities were actually the result of the dual effects of energy currents and magnetic fields. Unfortunately, he had too many research directions, and there were too many loopholes in the Energy Essence Theory. In order to deal with the criticisms of the Energy Essence Theory, he didn't have the time to study his electromagnetic field theory." The Lord of Storm introduced the progress in this direction to the students in a flat tone. It was obvious that the Lord of Storm was mocking Lucien for missing an opportunity to perfect the current arcana system.
The Energy Essence Theory was not the key point. The key point was that when a theory had not been verified by direct evidence, experiments, and magic, and when there were so many loopholes in it that could not be justified, it would be extremely stupid to blindly persist in it.
After the introduction, the Lord of Storm looked at Lucien and said, "Tell us the process of your discovery in detail. We can make bold assumptions, but we have to verify them carefully."
When they were talking about arcana, Fernando was not humorous or obscene at all. His face was serious, and his voice was neither fast nor slow. He did not believe that there were indeed special electromagnetic waves in the human brain that could affect people's emotions and actions. Therefore, he asked Lucien to explain in detail.
Now that Fernando was in charge of the meeting, he was not worried that Ashikana and the other students would plagiarize Lucien's achievement. As for himself, both his reputation in arcana and his wealth were close to the peak. He paid more attention to the exploration of nature, the discovery of laws, and the understanding of the world. He rarely cared about the false reputation of arcana and magic achievements.
"At first, it was because I obtained part of the Book of Necromancy. Through comparison, I discovered that part of the structure of 'Charm Person' was related to the soul, but I didn't know what the rest of it was used for. Out of curiosity and exploration, I studied this part of the structure for a long time, and by chance, I compared it with the structure of Mechanized Mind and found some similarities. So, I boldly improved the Charm Human Spell, and I did not expect it to be successful. "
Lucien talked frankly and confidently, reversing the order of his modification of Charm Person. Instead of strengthening part of the structure with theoretical guidance, he tried to modify it by relying on the similar structure of other spells. However, there were too many precedents in the history of magic research to count. Neither Fernando, the grand arcanist nor the senior-rank sorcerers doubted Lucien's words.
"My experiment was blind and lucky, but since the magic worked and achieved its purpose, it meant that the structure of the magic was not blind and lucky. There must be some law behind it. However, I still could not understand what it represented and reflected, so I've been trying to understand this magic. It was not until I touched the theory of electromagnetic waves that I found the similarities between them …"
Fernando did not interrupt Lucien's speech, which was rare for him. Instead, he nodded slightly to show that he agreed with Lucien's way of thinking and signaled him to continue. Many sorcerers, after creating new spells by chance or coincidence, thought that the success of the magic was also due to luck. Therefore, they did not try to find out the reason and law behind the success of the magic. Therefore, they missed a lot of valuable discoveries.
"… My research in this field has always been intermittent and messy. I once discovered the existence of weak electric currents in the human body, and I also discovered several special electromagnetic waves emitted by the human brain, but I didn't understand their meaning at all. Until I was stimulated by the King of Nightmares' realistic dreams, inspired by his words about the difference between reality and dreams, touched by Archmage Roland's description that the human body is composed of energy, and electromagnetic waves are external manifestations, and shocked by the research results of sorceress Isabella that Ms. Ashikana mentioned. Only then did I roughly understand the hidden rules behind this improved spell."
"When people encounter different things, their brain will emit different special electromagnetic waves, which will stimulate the body to secrete the alchemical substance that Ms. Isabella discovered, and thus generate emotions and feelings."
Lucien stuttered, as if he had just sorted out the idea.
Fernando asked carefully, "If there are electric currents in the human body and special electromagnetic waves, then have you found the magnetic field of the human brain?"
"No. Maybe the requirements of the experiment are too high, and the interference is too strong." Lucien shook his head.
Fernando continued asking, "How many special electromagnetic waves are there? What kind of alchemical substance are they used to stimulate? What kind of emotions and hallucinations?"
"Through the analysis of part of the magic of illusion, I found a few special electromagnetic waves in several frequency bands, but I don't know what kind of alchemical substance they are used to secrete. However, after adjusting the intensity of the electromagnetic waves, I can clearly see …" Lucien roughly explained the changes of emotions and hallucinations caused by different brain waves.
Fernando kept a serious face and kept asking questions about Lucien's research results. Lucien felt that he could not answer many of the questions. Fortunately, he had told Lucien in advance that he had just sorted out his ideas, so he did not expose himself.
After a lot of questions, Fernando finally calmed down and commented, "There are many emotions and feelings, and it's hard to control the secretion of alchemical substances by stimulating the brain waves. You still lack a lot of things in your research, and many questions are still hypotheses. You still have a long way to go in this field. However, arcana research needs to be discussed. You need to write a paper and submit it as soon as possible. If you don't mind, you can show us how to cast 'Charm Human' on two different targets. "
"Let me try! Let me try! "Alferris suddenly jumped up from the ground. It liked the mind and the mind the most.
Thompson looked at it helplessly, "Alferris, this is' Charm Human ', not' Charm Dragon '…"
"I forgot …" Alferris looked at them innocently and wagged its tail. It did not have the self-awareness of being a dragon at all.
After Lucien finished casting 'Charm Human' on two different targets, Fernando slightly nodded and said, "Your magic is more advanced than your theory. However, with the improved magic as the evidence, you'll be much less attacked. You should know that some sorcerers who are good at Illusion are very conservative, and they still maintain the tradition of the ancient magic empire. Although they admit and study arcana theories, they are not willing to accept that arcana theories can explain Illusion magic. These sorcerers, on the other hand, are very powerful and have a lot of apprentices. They are the mainstream of Illusionists. "
Every groundbreaking theory was more or less subject to criticism, and Lucien was not surprised. It was the same in both worlds.
After a series of questions from Fernando, Ashikana's expression softened a lot. Obviously, she found that Lucien did similar research before, but he just straightened out his ideas. He did not become good at Illusion and Electromagnetism all of a sudden. Ashikana smiled and said, "Evans, maybe you can share the Laurel of Sorcerer with Isabella with this research, as long as those stubborn guys in Family of Sorcerer are willing to accept it."
"There are still a lot of loopholes in my theory. It's very difficult to win the Laurel of Sorcerer. Unlike Ms. Isabella, who has long-term observation, complete experiments, and collected alchemy materials, it's very hard." Lucien answered in an optimistic manner.
Hearing the Laurel of Sorcerer, Alferris suddenly turned its head around and stared at Lucien with its slightly transparent amber eyes. Then it suddenly stretched out its two front paws and put them on Lucien's body. Its bright red tongue licked Lucien's right hand in a very affectionate way. This scared Lucien so much that he directly activated the Absorption Wall.
"Can I add my name to your paper?" Alferris shook its tail that was inlaid with crystal-like scales, and its voice was very sincere.
Is this guy a dragon or a dog? Lucien thought to himself helplessly. Fernando was indeed a grand arcanist who was known for his perverted ability. However, it seemed that Alferris was enjoying himself.
Fernando coughed and said, "Sit down, Alferris. Chloe, tell me about your recent research."
Alferris reluctantly took back its tongue and paws and hurriedly added, "I'm good at mind, spirit, and soul magic. I've reached the senior-rank, and I'm also very good at close combat. I can also be used as an experiment material. I can wear all kinds of clothes, play with you, your students, and your children, help you write papers, solve mathematical problems, do experiments, and even help you send letters and flowers to the ladies …"
When Alferris finished its long-winded speech, Chloe first looked at Lucien and said, "Evans, the description in Mr. Lauren's letter about the human body being made up of energy is not rigorous, and there is no evidence to prove it. Even if the human brain can send out electromagnetic waves, it doesn't mean that it has to be based on the Theory of Energy Essence. The structure of the human brain is very complicated. Maybe it's the complicated structure that gives birth to the electric current and magnetic field in the human body. Don't believe in the Theory of Energy Essence so easily. "
"I follow the principle of seeking truth from facts. I won't believe in any ideas without evidence and reasonable inference." Lucien expressed his attitude.
Crowley nodded lightly and began to talk about the results of his in-depth research on the second law of thermodynamics from the perspective of statistics and probability. At the same time, he explained that during this period of time, he had mainly focused on debating the energy essence theory and the atomic foundation theory with others — he himself held the atomic concept.
When he talked about these debates, he looked a bit depressed. It seemed that the fierce debate had made him feel a bit mentally painful.
"Chloe, forget about the debate and focus on your research." Fernando did not ask questions or correct mistakes one after another like Ashikana and Lucien did when they were talking. Instead, he gave a short comment.
"Yes, sir." Chloe was quite happy that his research was not criticized, and his depression faded a lot.
After that, Thompson talked about his bottleneck in high-temperature research, and Alferris talked about how it felt to be an experimental material.
"Lucien, come here every morning to do experiments on thermal radiation with me. In the afternoon, study and prepare to advance to the fifth circle." Fernando finally said.
…
When they left the thirty-third floor of the magic tower, Alferris waved its paw and said goodbye to Lucien "reluctantly". Alferris forgot the promise it made to Ashikana and was dragged to the lab by her.
Lucien did not go to the Sorcerer Administrative Department to renew his badge. He planned to do it when he finished writing the paper.
As soon as he got home, Leo greeted him, "Master, a Mr. Arthur Doyle is waiting for you in the living room. He seems to have a private invitation from His Highness."
