In the following half month, except for the people who were talking about the newborn stars and God's Arrival, Allyn, Renstadt, Lance, and other cities were peaceful and peaceful.
In this strange calm, as if nothing had happened, it was the new year of Year 820 of the Divine Calendar.
After a short holiday, Lucien stepped into the Atom Institution with the gentleman's cane that the Sun Staff had turned into. While thinking about the initial establishment of the Allyn Telephone and Telegram Company and the promotion of alchemical items, Lucien stepped into the Atom Institution.
Before Lucien took off his top hat and hung it on the coat rack, he heard Lazar's uncontrollable trembling voice, "It's … It's an artificial planet?"
"The star that lit up half of the sky that night was created and 'launched' by Mr. Douglas!" Heidi's voice was still as crisp and tender as a little girl's, but at this moment, it was extremely sharp, as if her heart was greatly shocked by the unimaginable great power.
Did Mr. Douglas publish the experiment on Arcana? Lucien realized something. Then, he smiled and greeted Lazar and Heidi, who were both frozen. "Hi, Lazar, Hi, Heidi, happy new year. You're so early."
Since Lazar became a third-circle sorcerer, he had the "awareness" of a middle-rank sorcerer. He would read every issue of Arcana and Magic as soon as possible. In the past, because he could not understand most of the papers on Arcana and Magic, he was not very enthusiastic about buying them. Most of the time, he would borrow them from the arcana library and read them. Therefore, he paid less attention to Element and Common Arcana. But now, because of the publication of these two journals, he would only come this early one or two days every month. Lucien had no doubt about that.
But Heidi, who liked to sleep in, woke up so early, which puzzled Lucien a bit.
"Mr. Evans, Annick has become an official sorcerer!" Heidi subconsciously turned around and answered Lucien's question. She clenched her fists and said, "I'm so excited! I need to get up early to meditate! I need to get up early to study! "
Annick was promoted? Although the communication satellite hadn't been launched yet, and Lucien couldn't communicate with the distant places yet, the various affairs of the Allyn Telephone and Telegraph Company and its subordinate 'Arcana Voice' consumed almost all of Lucien's leisure time. Except for the brief chat during the New Year's dinner, he did not pay any attention to the apprentices who were almost his students at all. He did not even notice that Annick was already on the verge of advancement.
This also reminded Lucien. He began to consider handing over the management of the company to professionals or sorcerers who liked to run the company. After all, the most important thing for him was the improvement of his arcana level and magic power, as well as the improvement of alchemical items.
"When did he advance?" Lucien asked in delight.
Heidi clenched her fists. "Yesterday! During this period of time, he had been busy with his private experiments. He did not even rest during the New Year holidays. Yesterday, he seemed to have made a breakthrough. Without waiting for his spiritual power to accumulate enough, he completed the upgrade with the help of the potion! If I hadn't gone to ask him about it, I wouldn't have been able to discover even a single problem! "
"To be able to advance a few months after the coming-of-age ceremony, Annick is not inferior to other magic apprentices of his age." Lucien nodded in satisfaction. It seemed that Annick had made considerable progress in proving that what was shot out in the photoelectric effect was an electron.
Thinking about this, Lucien suddenly had an idea. Would this place become a kindergarten for the winners of Holm Crown prize or Silver Moon Medal in the future? Would it be recorded in the History of Magic that the Atom Institution, a small place, left many brilliant names, and gave birth to many forerunners who were admired by the future generations?
Although Annick might not be able to win the Holm Crown prize this time because of Lucien's paper on the discovery of natural radiation, it was not impossible for him to continue exploring the frontier of the elemental field in the future!
Heidi waved her fists again. "I won't be any worse than them!"
At this moment, Annick, Sprint, Layria, and the rest of them walked in high spirits, which was rare for them to be so excited.
"Congratulations, Annick. You've become a real sorcerer." Lucien smiled and congratulated Annick.
"What? You've become a real sorcerer?" Sprint blurted out. He had thought that he would be the first one to become a real sorcerer.
Layria and Katrina also looked at Annick with surprise, delight, envy and melancholy. They found it hard to believe that Annick, who was the quietest among them, could become an official sorcerer so quickly.
Being stared at by everyone, Annick's face blushed. He said shyly, "I made some progress in my experiment yesterday, and the meditation environment changed. So I took the potion and tried to build a first-circle spell. I didn't expect that I would succeed on the first try."
Annick had never been stared at like this before. He was so embarrassed that he almost buried his face in the ground.
"You've verified that it's an electron?" asked Lucien in satisfaction.
Annick nodded, "Yes."
"This is the result that might give you a chance to win Holm Crown prize," said Lucien half-jokingly.
Heidi, Layria, Katrina and even Lazar all gasped. Now that they thought about it carefully, it seemed that there might be a chance for Annick to win!
Yesterday, a sorcerer apprentice was going to win Holm Crown prize. This was even more unbelievable than a legend. Even Lucien, who had won the highest honor when he was only nineteen, had been a real sorcerer for almost a year when he became a real sorcerer.
Hearing the gasps and exclamations, Annick felt even more uncomfortable. He shook his head, "It's impossible. This only proves that the electron came from the metal, but it can't prove that the electron came from the metal atoms. For example, maybe the free electron was absorbed when the atoms were combined."
Then he murmured to himself, "And even if there's a chance for me to win the prize, I don't want to."
"Why?" Asked Lucien curiously. So did the rest of the apprentices. There was someone who didn't want to win Holm Crown prize?
Annick said embarrassedly, "I don't like other people's attention. Isn't it nice to study, experiment, explore and improve myself in peace?"
"If you really win the prize one day, and you refuse to take it, you'll get more attention. That's unprecedented." Lucien smiled and dispelled Annick's idea.
"You're right …" Annick was slow to understand.
At this time, Lazar finally came back to himself. He raised the journal Arcana in his hand and shouted, "Everyone, do you still remember the star that was destroyed by God's Arrival when it was just born half a month ago?"
"Yes, what about it?" Sprint's attention was quickly diverted. What happened that night left a deep impression on him!
Layria and Katrina also looked at Lazar curiously. The bright star was still deeply engraved in their minds.
Annick was relieved after he got rid of the attention. Then he looked at Lazar with the same expression on his face.
In Allyn, if any sorcerer who did not know the inside story said that he or she was not shocked by the newborn star, it would be a lie.
When Lazar was about to brag about the great news and express his shock, admiration, and admiration, Heidi interrupted him. "That star was created and launched by Mr. President!"
"What?!"
"That's impossible!"
"Man-made? Human? "
Different exclamations expressed the same disbelief.
"It's true! The first paper on this issue of Arcana is Mr. President's Summary of Simulating the Motion System of Celestial Bodies with an Artificial Planet! " Lazar waved the journal in his hand, unwilling to be left behind. "There's the estimated data, the actual data, the comparison between the two, and the description of the trajectory. It's absolutely true!"
For those who had studied Douglas' theoretical system and made some achievements, it was not difficult for them to build the whole model with the data in the past as long as they had the idea of an artificial planet. Therefore, Douglas did not hide the experiment. Those who could understand it would figure it out very soon, and those who could not would not understand it at all.
Of course, he concealed the specific operation as appropriate, and Lucien's plan was only proposed in a small group of people in order to avoid giving more revelations to the enemy.
"Is … Is he still a human being?" Layria murmured in a low voice. The stars in the sky represented the fate of all intelligent creatures for the sorcerers who were adept at astrology. However, 'fate' could be created artificially?
Sprint, Annick, and Katrina were all in a daze. Their strength and knowledge had soared recently, but their pride was shattered by the astounding achievement.
Lazar, on the other hand, noticed in confusion that Lucien had been smiling without saying anything. Suddenly, he had an idea. "Lucien, you didn't take part in the experiment, did you?"
Immediately, everybody focused their eyes on Lucien's face.
"I gave you some suggestions." Lucien nodded with a smile. As long as he did not reveal who the initiator of the experiment was, there was nothing to hide. After all, the Church's attention would be on the person who completed the experiment.
Lazar clicked his tongue. "I don't know why, but I'm not surprised to hear that you took part in the experiment."
Heidi hurriedly flipped through the paper. As expected, she saw Douglas's words at the end.
"Thank you, Fernando, Bergner, Lucien, Artil, Luciana, Norman, for your help in this experiment …" Luciana read it out loud and clear, "Thank you, Fernando, Bergner, Lucien, Artil, Luciana, Norman …
They had a deeper understanding of Lucien's' inhuman 'nature.
"Let me see what other papers are on this issue of Arcana." Lucien reached out his hand and took the journal. His journal should be in the Arcana Review Board's office.
Glancing at the title, Lucien suddenly saw an article by Artil at the end of the paper. It was a discussion that did not earn him any citation credits: "Does Aether Really Exist?"
Taking a deep breath, Lucien read the short article silently. It was like a declaration of war:
"… The experiment on artificial planets has proved Mr. President's theoretical system, and the experiment on the speed of light based on this system has also proved that Aether does not exist."
"… I'll offer fifty thousand arcana points for other theoretical explanations of this experiment, including the theory of Aether!"
"Arcanists who doubt this experiment and believe in the existence of Aether, please use your wisdom and imagination!"
Lazar, who was reading the article, suddenly cheered, "That's the way it should be! It's time for those who believe in the wave theory to face their mistakes!"
Lazar, Rock, and other elemental sorcerers had always believed in the particle theory.
Hearing Lazar's words, Lucien sensed that a big debate was coming.
