Act 133. Visit the High Mage
When Reiner arrived at the hotel, most of the rooms were already full, but he didn't have a lot of requirements, so he was quickly assigned a standard single room.
"How can light be a particle, and are all those diffraction and interference phenomena fake?"
"Lord Stenion's Elemental Table is so subtle that I think that's the right answer."
"Sullivan isn't coming until tomorrow? He's not the kind of guy who gets late, what's going on? ”
"This recent flurry of discoveries has worried me a little, as if something that I used to believe in is starting to waver."
In the lobby of the hotel, many mages were talking about their own topics, shouting and shouting.
After Reiner checked in, instead of going to his room, he found the mage who was in charge of reception in the hall.
"Hello, where is His Excellency Dmitry?"
He asked, wanting to get the paper to the high-level mage for review as soon as possible.
"Your Excellency Dmitry is not...... Uh, the Hohenheim Gold Cup? You're Reiner. Ian Gray? ”
The mage in charge of the reception was a little impatient, but when he saw the ring between Reiner's fingers, his face immediately changed.
"It is here, I don't know if you can take me to see His Excellency Dmitry, or tell me where to find him, I have important documents that he needs to confirm."
"Wait, you wait......"
That mage only had one link, presumably a student of a middle-level mage who had been sent to take on such a job, and he was a little flustered, and hurriedly took out the itinerary to check it.
"Well, Lord Dmitry should be attending the High Mage's seminar right now, at the Norton Convention Center in the heart of Ernest City, I think you can ...... Hey? ”
He looked up, only to find that Reiner was gone.
"Damn, I forgot to sign it!"
Annoyed, he muttered to himself.
......
Reiner walked out of the hotel, hailed a horse-drawn carriage, and rushed straight to the center of Ernest City, the Norton Convention Center is a three-story building, which is more small and fat than the towering buildings around it, and contains dozens of small meeting rooms and two large meeting rooms, which can accommodate thousands of people for large conferences.
According to the guidance of the people at the front desk of the convention center, Reiner came to the ninth conference room.
The conference room was small and could only accommodate about twenty people, but at the moment, there were more than forty people waiting outside the room.
The mages were dressed in different ways from the fourth to the sixth ring, some of them looked indifferent, others were more nervous, and some were pacing back and forth, waiting in the hall at the door of the conference room, glancing at the closed door from time to time.
The mages were more silent than the mages in the hall of the hotel, almost all of them were silent, their attention drawn to what was happening in the room.
Someone noticed Reiner's arrival, but no one spoke, as if as soon as he spoke, a certain emotion would flood out.
Reiner found a place to wait, and it was clear that the High Mages were discussing academic issues in the conference room, and it was supposed to be their students and assistants waiting outside.
About ten minutes later, the door to the conference room opened.
Everyone subconsciously held their breath until the first high-level mage walked out of the door.
It was a gentleman with one-sided glasses, not a master robe, but a well-fitting suit dress, he was handsome and handsome, and he looked no more than thirty years old, but the nine gold trims on the cuffs of the suit made people look away.
"I have always believed that since there are phenomena that cannot be explained by the wave theory, then there is no conclusion."
He said to the person behind him, it was a middle-aged man with messy long hair, a scruffy beard, and an eclectic man, this mage Reiner knew, it was the nine-ring mage of the mercury scale, Eagles. Field, proposed the concept of elements and the mass of elements.
"I can give you back that you say it to you, Ludwig."
Another mage walked out behind the two of them and spoke to the mage in the suit.
Ludwig?
It occurred to Reiner that this fashionably dressed mage must be Ludwig who discovered the photoelectric effect. Stein, because he is young and handsome, also has the title of playboy among mages.
"Clark, I think we can find a place to discuss this in private."
Ludwig was not excited by the other party's provocation, but said lightly, confidently and elegantly.
The high-ranking mages came out one after another, and their respective students and disciples greeted them, and Reiner noticed that the legendary mages seemed to be not among them, and at the same time, it seemed that only Cornwall was there. Lord Penzance was alone, but Reiner didn't have time to greet him for the time being, and instead greeted President Dmitry, who had two mages by his side.
The leader of the mercury balance was dictating the minutes of the meeting to his students, and since the thoughts of the high-level mages were very trendy, some collisions might lead to conclusions that were completely contrary to cognition, which were very dangerous for mages with a weak foundation, and could easily cause cognitive collapse.
Therefore, these students usually wait outside the meeting room, and in between meetings, the senior mages will dictate some ideas and ideas for them to record and organize.
“...... I think the current generated by light hitting a sheet metal can be ...... in the following ways."
President Dmitry gushed on and on, while his two students took notes at a rapid pace, and Reiner waited for President Dmitry's account to finish before he stepped forward to greet him.
"Hello, Your Excellency Dmitry."
Reiner saluted, and both of Dmitry's students knew Reiner's appearance, so they didn't stop him.
"Oh, Reiner, how did you get here, I thought you'd arrive later."
Dmitry was a little surprised, although in Reiner's letter, he learned that this apprentice who had repeatedly performed miracles seemed to have made some new discoveries, but he didn't expect Reiner to come here directly to find him.
As a high-level mage, Dmitry did not hesitate to devote resources to some promising newcomers, and he attached great importance to Reiner, so he waved his hand to his two students, motioned for them to stand back, and then stood in front of Reiner.
"What surprises will you bring me this time?"
"A new element, Lord Dmitry, to be precise, this new element is not my discovery, but since its discoverer is deceased, I have put together a paper in his place."
Reiner said, causing Dmitry to raise an eyebrow, the discovery of the new element requires knowledge and perseverance, and more importantly, a bit of luck, although Reiner said that this is not his discovery, but it seems too lucky to be able to encounter this kind of thing.
However, this doubt has not been dispelled, and Reiner's next sentence directly changed Dmitry's expression.
"In addition, according to the table of elements of Lord Stenion, I have deduced a list of elements that can predict the existence of new elements, which has been submitted to the paper review committee before, but has not yet received the results of the review, but while waiting for the results, the discovery of this new element coincides with my prediction, so I have added some notes to this list of elements, this list of elements, I call it the periodic table."
