In the Royal Magic Tower of Holm.
As soon as Lucien pushed the door open, he saw Morris, Gaston, Florencia, and some other senior members of the Will of Elements. Apart from the arcanists who were out exploring or studying magic, there were about fourteen or fifteen arcanists present.
"Mr. Evans, it's the senior members of the Will of Elements inside. Your safety is not a problem. I'll stay outside." Bellak whispered to Lucien.
Lucien slightly nodded and walked in slowly. He smiled and greeted the sorcerers he knew, "Good morning, Mr. Morris, Mr. Gaston, Ms. Florencia …"
"Welcome, Mr. Evans, the youngest member of the Arcana Review Board in the history of the Congress of Magic, and also the youngest winner of Holm Crown prize …" Morris stood up and introduced Lucien to the other senior members of the Will of Elements. However, when he reached the end of the introduction, he felt so sad that he couldn't even say a word, "Mr. Evans will also win the Immortal Throne prize. He's the second sorcerer in the history of the Will of Elements to win the prize. What a promising young man!"
The first sorcerer who won the Immortal Throne prize was Hathaway. She summed up the basic elements of the human body.
The senior members of the Will of Elements were already used to Morris' bad mood when he mentioned the loss of his wealth, and they were happy to "attack" him in this aspect. Right now, they were all smiling and shaking their heads, and they secretly whispered his nickname, "The Silver-Gray Miser".
Only Florencia was giggling and covering her face. She felt that her teacher was so embarrassing. As the wife of a grand arcanist and a senior-rank sorcerer who was good at fighting, Florencia had never been short of wealth and resources. Therefore, she didn't care much about wealth and resources. However, because of the friendship between her teacher and her teacher, whenever Morris proposed all kinds of suggestions because of his stinginess, Florencia would always stand on his side.
"Lucien, this is President Donald, a member of the Highest Council. He just came back from exploring the alternate dimension." Morris pointed at an old man with gray hair.
Donald was a typical gentleman in the style of the Kingdom of Holm. His clothes were neat, and there was a black top hat and a cane beside him. His light blue eyes were neither cloudy nor sharp, but gentle.
However, as one of the six archmages in the Highest Council, Lucien did not dare to underestimate him. The fact that he was a level-nine arcanist, a ninth-circle sorcerer, and the winner of Holm Crown prize were enough to make him a dazzling figure.
"Good morning, Mr. Donald. I've always been curious about alternate dimensions, so I have great respect for every sorcerer who can explore an alternate dimension. Can you tell me more about the alternate dimension you've explored this time? "Lucien asked politely, trying to get closer to him with the help of curiosity.
Donald's voice was deep and hoarse, as if his throat was hurt or affected by some kind of magic, "You're now a member of Arcana Review Board, and you're qualified to borrow most of the materials from the Congress' Advanced Arcana and Magic Library. Of course, we all know that your ranking on the Cleansing List has been rising rapidly recently, and I'm afraid that you don't have time to read those books and documents."
Florencia chuckled, because Donald, 'Elemental Chaos', was on the 53rd place on the Cleansing List. Lydia, who had the bloodline of the succubus, also smiled and looked at Lucien. Her crimson eyes were filled with interest.
Before Lucien answered, Donald continued, "There are many types of alternate dimensions. However, since we haven't found the one that just came into being, we haven't figured out how they came into being. It might be related to the mystery of the creation of the world. The oldest, most dangerous, and most extensive alternate dimensions are the two places that we call Hell and Abyss. They are divided into different levels like a magic tower. "
"The so-called Mountain Paradise of the Saint Truth is more mysterious. It has most of the features of the alternate dimensions, and all kinds of angels can be summoned as creatures from the alternate dimensions. However, just like the missing planet, we can't find it at all, so we can't explore it."
"Common alternate dimensions are much smaller than the main world. You can find the edge of chaos and darkness. The creatures, minerals, and terrain are also relatively simple. There are the Fire Elemental Dimensions full of fire, the natural paradise of unicorns, the star tombs where real planets are floating in the void, without gravity or light, and the world of human beings with a national structure."
The name of the Fire Elemental Dimension came from the ancient Magic Empire, and the Congress continued to use it.
"So far, the Congress has explored eighty-seven alternate dimensions. Eleven of them are under our control, and the rest are not under our control at all. Some of them are under the control of the local powerful natives, and some are under the control of the South Church and the North Church. Some are under the control of the South Church, the North Church, the Dark Congress, and the churches of other gods. The rest are under our control, such as Hell and Abyss."
"We explore alternate dimensions for two reasons. Firstly, we want to get different kinds of precious resources and materials. Secondly, we want to find the pattern and get closer to the truth of the world by comparing the incomplete alternate dimensions with the main world."
"This time, I went to the star tombs, trying to figure out how they are related to the active stars in the main world, which have gravity and light but can't be found. Unfortunately, I didn't find any clues."
When Donald mentioned the star tombs, Lucien suddenly thought of the science fiction movies he watched in his previous life. The alternate dimensions were vast, desolate, and cold, but the star tombs had no light or gravity.
After Donald satisfied Lucien's curiosity, Morris introduced the rest of the leaders of the Will of Elements one by one. At this time, the door of the meeting room was pushed open again, and the grey-haired Raventi walked in. On his black magic robe, dozens of elemental symbols were arranged into a periodic table.
"All the members in the headquarter are here. Let's start the discussion." Seeing that Raventi sat down in a seat that was far away from him, Morris was immediately in a good mood.
Lucien, on the other hand, slightly nodded to Raventi to express his gratitude. The reason why he was late was that he had to guard the Allyn branch of the Will of Elements and make sure that Lucien would be safe when he jumped through the demiplane.
Raventi didn't care about Lucien's gratitude. In his opinion, it was his duty to fulfill his duty.
"The first thing is about … Holm Crown prize." Morris rubbed his forehead and continued, "Larry's ring, 'Ionization', has been made. Should we wait for Evans' two rings to be awarded together, or in two parts?"
Raventi directly expressed his opinion, "Award them together. Honor and rings are the most important thing, not the banquet and the ceremony. Don't waste our time studying arcana and magic. "
Since it was Mr. Raventi who spoke, Donald, Florencia, Overee, Gaston, and LockLynn all nodded in agreement. There was no need to listen to Raventi's roar on meaningless things.
"I agree with Raventi. The most important thing is that Holm Crown prize symbolizes the highest honor in the field of Elements and Alchemy, not the banquet and the ceremony. I think we should highlight this point. A ring of level four or five … I'm kidding. Alright, let's talk about the naming of Evans' two rings." Morris calmly changed the topic under everyone's angry stares.
These senior-rank arcanists could not afford to lose face by giving a middle-rank ring as the reward.
"It's simple. One of them is electron, particle, or gate, and the other one is origin." Florencia smiled and continued her teacher's words.
At this moment, Lucien could only stay silent and wait for their decision. In order not to irritate Mr. Morris, he decided to wait until next year to submit the paper on radioactive elements. The paper proved that electrons were the internal structure of atoms, and elements could be changed. Theoretically, it showed that one of the greatest dreams of the school of Alchemy could be realized. It was definitely worth a Hall Crown ring. Now, according to the rules of Miracle Experiment, Lucien decided to show it to Fernando, Chloe, and the other arcanists first.
In the ancient Magic Empire, the school of Alchemy was originally the school of Potion and Item Making. However, later on, the sorcerers of this school tried to change the fundamental nature of the matter and turn ordinary things into real gold. They did not need magic to be constant, nor could the gold be maintained for a short period of time. However, they had never succeeded. Gradually, Alchemy became one of their greatest dreams, and the school of Potion and Item Making was simplified into the school of Alchemy.
After some arguments among the ladies, Lucien's two rings were named "Electron" and "Origin".
After that, the leaders of the school started to discuss the important issues of the Will of Elements. As a new member, Lucien remained silent and listened quietly with his hands crossed. He only gave his choice during the voting.
Lucien found that although the Will of Elements seemed to be harmonious on the surface, there were also some internal conflicts. Morris and Donald were not on good terms, and each of them had several close members. Gaston and the other two senior-rank arcanists formed their own faction. Raventi did not care about any of them, and he just scolded whoever was unreasonable.
…
An hour later, the meeting came to an end.
"Lucien, the Hand of Paleness has decided to give you the Immortal Throne. Let me ask you, do you want an amulet, a necklace, or something else?" Morris was always in high spirits when talking about the loss of other people's wealth.
Considering that many sorcerers already had decent items, other than the fact that they could wear at least six rings on their ten fingers and many medals on their chests, the winners would be asked about the type of items they wanted after the award was decided. However, they could only choose from a certain range. For example, the Sorcerer's Laurel had to be an accessory on the head.
Lucien opened the door and asked Morris to leave first. Then he smiled, "Magic robe."
Lucien had the Sun's Corona amulet.
Morris nodded slightly and put on a bitter smile, "I hope that one day I don't have to ask you whether you want a ring or something else."
Lucien and Morris walked forward while chatting casually. Bellak quickly caught up with them and whispered to Lucien, "Mr. Evans, do you want to stay here or go back to Allyn?"
"Go back to Allyn." Lucien smiled, and then he said goodbye to Morris, Gaston, and Florencia.
Florencia looked at Lucien with a smile in her green eyes. She deliberately gnashed her teeth and said to Lucien, "I still want to talk to you about the discovery of the new particle."
"I'm looking forward to learning from you, my lady." Lucien replied humorously, and then he turned around and walked to the gate at the end of the corridor. Raventi also said goodbye to the other sorcerers and was ready to go back to Allyn. He was in charge of the Allyn branch of the Will of Elements.
…
On the other side of the corridor, two sorcerers who seemed to be in their thirties just walked out of the demiplane warehouse.
They looked at each other and saw the deep hatred in each other's eyes.
The black-haired sorcerer pulled the necklace on his neck and whispered something to himself. Then he turned around and walked towards the core of the magic tower. The other sorcerer with blond hair adjusted his collar and sleeves, calculated the distance and time, and hurried to the junction of the two corridors.
The distance was very short. After a dozen steps, he arrived at the corridor where Lucien and the other sorcerers were. He slightly lowered his head and walked towards Lucien who was walking towards him.
When he was about to pass by Lucien, the sorcerer with blond hair lowered his head respectfully, but there was a ferocious smile on his face. In his magic robe, streaks of scorching light came out, and then he exploded together with the powerful alchemy explosives tied around his waist and chest.
Rumble! The explosion of a middle-rank sorcerer and the rows of alchemy explosives was as powerful as a sixth-circle spell!
"Go to hell, demon! Die in despair like me! "The golden-haired Magician's shrill screams echoed in the explosion.
