Douglas's demiplane was very different from the Lord of the Undead's' Resting Land ', Fernando's' Thunder Hell ', and Hathaway's' Element Paradise '. When Lucien and Norman, who was a member of the Affair Committee, stepped into it together, they did not feel that they had entered a demiplane at all, as if this place was part of the main material world, where everything was running according to the same rules. Everything was ordinary but contained profound mysteries.
Although every legendary sorcerer's demiplane had different features because of their cognitive world and their preferences, it was no surprise that each of them had their own unique features. Douglas's demiplane, on the other hand, was surrounded by tall green mountains, dense black forests and clear lakes that were as transparent as mirrors, and the magic tower was surrounded by carpet-like lawns. It was no different from the main material world at all, as if it were a place of great scenery.
"Our teacher's dream is to know the truth of the world. So, the closer the demiplane is to the main material world, the better it is for him." Norman, who looked young and handsome, explained with a smile.
Lucien nodded slightly and looked around the boundless demiplane again. "No wonder Mr. President named his demiplane 'Linsorde'."
'Linsorde', in the language of the ancient Sylvanas Magic Empire, meant 'the truth of the world'. Therefore, Douglas's demiplane was also called 'Land of Truth' and 'Mirror World'.
Passing through the gate of the magic tower that was guarded by two mithril golems, Norman led Lucien into a small living room, where two guests, a man and a woman, were already sitting.
In the living room, there was a bright red carpet on the floor, and a sofa, a tea table, and a few rows of bookshelves were placed randomly. It was messy but rather comfortable. There were no strict rules. It seemed to be a private place where Douglas entertained his close friends and juniors instead of a common banquet hall.
"Our teacher, the Lord of Storm, and Mr. Prophet are still doing the final tests. We'll wait for a moment." Norman explained with a smile when he saw that there was only a man and a woman in the living room. Then, he introduced them to Lucien. "These two are Teacher's students. Coincidentally, they didn't go out, and they don't have any research that they can't put down for the time being. Therefore, they specially rushed over to witness this historic moment. If teacher's artificial planet can fly around the world and be observed by the Celestial Tower on the ground, teacher's celestial body movement system will receive strong proof and won't be questioned like it is now. "
Speaking of this, Norman was a little excited and agitated. He felt wronged because his teacher had been doubted for hundreds of years and almost forgot to continue the introduction. Fortunately, he recovered in time and pointed at the middle-aged man with gray hair. "This is Artil, the student who has been following our teacher for the longest time. He specializes in Astrology, Force Field, Transformation, and Light-darkness."
Artil's face was thin. His cheekbones were protruding, his eyes were narrow, and his lips were thin. He was wearing the badge of a level eight arcanist and a ninth-circle archmage, but he was not a member of any committee, nor a member of the Highest Council.
He slightly nodded and said in a flat but slightly sarcastic tone, "I'm not the student who has been following our teacher for the longest time. There's another guy who is older than me and has been following our teacher for a longer time."
Hearing this, Norman and the other woman were quite embarrassed. They didn't know how to respond. Lucien, on the other hand, suddenly realized that Artil was referring to Mr. Brook, the Emperor of Control and the Poem of the Goddess. It was said that Mr. Brook and President Douglas became estranged because of the argument about the wave and particle of light.
For Norman and Artil, who were "young" and had never experienced what Brook had done, what Brook had done was only recorded in ancient books and legends in poems and stories. They had never experienced it themselves, so it was hard for them to feel extreme disgust and hatred toward Brook. Artil, on the other hand, probably had studied under Douglas for a long time. In his eyes, what Brook had done was a blatant betrayal, a shameless behavior, and a behavior that deserved to be despised. No wonder he had no respect for Brook.
Seeing that Lucien was still smiling and didn't ask any questions because of Artil's "impoliteness", Norman hurriedly pointed at the other young woman and said, "This is Luciana, also one of our teacher's students. She specializes in Elements, Astrology, Force Field, Summoning, and Transformation. She also has a deep understanding of mathematics. She should have a lot in common with you, Evans."
"I've just finished reading Nature, and I'm very interested in your and Mr. Levski's new geometry system. I'm going to do further research on it, hoping to gradually complete and enrich the two new geometry systems." Luciana, who had a special bloodline, had hair as red as fire, which set off her smooth and delicate skin. She was of medium height and looked very exotic. It seemed that she was less than twenty-five years old. However, the badges on her chest, which indicated that she was a level seven arcanist, an eighth-circle sorcerer, and a member of Arcana Review Board, strongly refuted the conclusion of Lucien's observation.
Before Lucien answered, Artil smiled and said, "Luciana, what's the point of studying this new geometry system that has no practical arcana or magic significance? Time is precious to everyone. Although we all have a long life, the world is so vast and mysterious. Even if we spend hundreds of years, we may not be able to get any closer to the truth. So we can't afford to waste time. If our teacher's artificial planet experiment succeeds, it will be a great breakthrough in the school of Astrology and Force Field. There will be plenty of things for you to study. "
Artil was completely indifferent to the new geometry system.
Norman nodded slightly, as if he agreed with Artil's words. However, he could not bring himself to criticize Lucien's new geometry system in front of him like Artil did, and he also criticized Luciana for wasting her time and effort.
"It's my hobby, and it's also a way for me to relax myself," Luciana retorted coldly. She just liked to study things that were full of mathematical beauty. In fact, she did not think that the two new geometry systems had any practical arcana or magic value.
"I don't think I need to introduce him, right? He's Lucien Evans, the most famous genius arcanist in the Congress in recent years. His talents in elements, thermodynamics, and mathematics are unparalleled. "Norman hurriedly changed the topic and introduced Lucien to his two classmates.
Artil pointed at the sofa and said, "Evans, have a seat. Before our teacher comes down, we can talk about arcana and magic. Although I don't know much about elements, I know that the electron you just discovered is the cause of lightning. Hey, isn't the school of electromagnetism based on waves? "
When they were not talking about the things that he despised, he was quite normal.
"In fact, the school of electromagnetism has always believed that electric current is the external manifestation of the movement of electric charges, but it has never been related to microscopic particles," said Lucien bluntly. He took a sip of the lemon black tea served by the servant.
"No matter what, particles are the essence and foundation of the world!" Said Artil enthusiastically, "As long as our teacher's artificial planet experiment succeeds, Brook will never be able to question our teacher's celestial motion system again. There must be some other reasons why planets can't be discovered! In such a way, my teacher's experiment on the speed of light will prove that Ether does not exist as a medium. Without a medium, the wave theory of light will be like a skyscraper whose foundation has been dug out. It will not be able to rule the brains of the arcanists in the Congress anymore. "
"Light and spiritual power are particles, so they must be particles!"
Norman frowned and disagreed with Artil's fantasy. "Let's not talk about the fact that our teacher's experiment hasn't succeeded yet. Even if it succeeds, it can only be a strong proof, not a complete proof. Maybe there are other theories that include Aether to explain this experiment. The diffraction of light and the bright spots in Brook's shadow can't be explained by the particle theory for the time being. We can't be too optimistic."
"Norman, I see. You actually support the wave theory, don't you?" Artil was furious. "Why can't you say that the diffraction of light is only a strong proof, not a complete proof? Maybe there are other explanations that include the particle theory?"
Norman was a bit annoyed. "Haven't all the theories and explanations in the past decades been proven false? Artil, open your eyes that are blinded by jealousy and hatred. See how many arcanists in the Congress still support the particle theory. If you want to overthrow the wave theory, explain the diffraction with the particle theory first! "
"Jealousy? I'm jealous? "Artil pointed at himself in anger and disbelief." I'm jealous of that bastard Brook? I just believe in my own judgment! "
Luciana also joined the fight, "I'm sorry that you look down on me, Norman. I'm one of the few arcanists who support the particle theory. A theory that even its own foundation can't be proven. Humph, it doesn't make sense just because there are more people who believe in it! "
"Indeed. In the past, when many theories were overthrown, the truth was in the hands of a few people. But the particle theory can't even explain the experimental phenomena. How can the arcanists believe in it?" Norman subconsciously showed his true inclination.
"You traitor!" Artil's narrow eyes were wide open because of anger.
"I'm just holding on to the truth!" Norman answered without hesitation.
The three students of Douglas were in a fierce quarrel because of the wave theory and the particle theory. Lucien was completely forgotten.
Lucien wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. He was a bit worried that they would fight and hurt him. When he saw the flushed faces of Artil and Norman, he thought to himself, "It's really dangerous to argue about the wave theory and the particle theory in the Congress of Magic …"
"Norman, you're still working on the problem of the initial impetus? You're too arrogant. How dare you work on a problem that even our teacher can't solve? "
"Humph, it's my hobby to work on something. And our teacher also pays a lot of attention to this problem. It's related to the final result of his theoretical system. Artil, don't think that I don't know that you're also working on it secretly! Take a look at yourself in the mirror first! "
The quarrel was getting more and more intense. Almost at the same time, the three of them turned to Lucien.
"Evans, what do you think about the wave theory and the particle theory?"
"Evans, I heard that the artificial planet experiment was proposed by you to help our teacher prove that 'Ether' doesn't exist?"
"I believe that every arcanist who is good at elemental magic is a firm supporter of the particle theory."
Lucien felt that he was being attacked without doing anything. When he was about to answer carefully, Douglas, Fernando, and the Prophet of Tower walked downstairs.
