Act XLVII. It's that name again
Rewind a few days to the time when Reiner sent his latest paper to the judging committee.
This paper, like hundreds of other papers submitted at the same time, was backed up after repeated reviews and then assigned to the three mages.
And one of them, it just so happens to be Galleon.
On this day, as he was enjoying his coffee, there was a clanging of teleportation circles on the table, and a paper appeared in the circle, Garon picked up the stack of parchment, looked at it, and almost didn't sit down in his chair.
The title of the paper is "Analysis of the properties and compounds of two new elements "Ocles" and "Hydra" obtained by electrolysis of water, as well as several conjectures about the combustion theory. Ian Gray!
Garon's hand holding the paper trembled a little, and he looked at the title of the paper again, this time, he finally couldn't hold back his wavering mood anymore, and the paper fell from his hand and scattered to the ground, and Garon, watching all this happen, was stunned for a long time, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
What should come is always coming.
He stood, picked up the papers, arranged them in order, and before he began to read them, he looked at the title again, he knew every word of the title, but when put together, it was like the most vicious curse, scratching his spirit.
Garon thought for a moment, and he summoned a crystallized worm.
"Write down my words, and if I die of magic in the process of reading this paper, then my inheritance will be donated to the mercury scale."
He had prepared his will in advance, because subconsciously, he felt that this paper would have a huge impact on his soul.
The crystal worm recorded Garon's words before slowly drifting away, and the room was quiet again, and Garon slowly opened the paper.
The format of the paper is as neat and pleasing to the eye as the previous one, but the words inside are like the sharpest blades, piercing Galleon's heart.
Electrolytic Fagallons have heard of it, and it is Cornwall. His Excellency Penzance recently discovered a method of separating matter, based on which he published a paper on the successful separation of caustic alkali and the extraction of an extremely reactive metallic element "Kayla".
In this paper, Reiner also used electrolysis, but the object of electrolysis was none other than water, which is known as one of the "four basic elements"!
As we all know, in the theory of modern alchemy system, the four elements of wind, water, fire, and earth are the smallest units of matter and cannot be decomposed again.
If Reiner's previous paper was challenging the combustion theory, then this paper is undoubtedly challenging the entire modern alchemy system!
Over the past three hundred years, countless alchemists have tried to decompose the basic elements in various ways, but almost all of them have failed, the entities of the earth element and the fire element have not yet been found, the water element has stood still under various methods, and the wind element is fickle, and no one can shake the existence of these four basic elements.
But Reiner wrote clearly on parchment that he had broken down the water by electrolysis.
Garon looked intently at the description of the experiment, clear and coherent, and if it weren't for the excessive desecration of magic in the content of the experiment, he would simply be tempted to applaud.
After he finished the experiment with electrolyzed water, the next chapter was on the measurement of the properties of the two new elements.
When Garon saw that "Ocles" and "Hydra" were completely burned in a volume ratio of one to two, generating water, he only felt a wave of dizziness in front of him, it was obviously afternoon, but the world around him seemed to fall into the night, countless stars were bright and extinguished, and in the middle of the night sky, the stars belonging to Garon were crumbling, as if they would fall in the next moment!
At this time, a hand grabbed Garon, causing him to wake up suddenly, everything was fleeting, he was like having a long dream, and a wave of magic from the palm of his shoulder continued to circulate in Garon's body, neutralizing his disordered magic, which stabilized Garon and freed him from the magic backlash.
"Hoo ......"
Garon breathed a long sigh of relief, and then looked at the person who had helped him.
"Teacher Fleming, how could you?"
That man was his own teacher, Fleming. Ernst, the old man was dressed in a gray robe as always, he pointed to the crystal worm that appeared on the side and did not know when, and then said.
"This crystallized worm found me and repeated your words, and I'll see what the hell is going on."
Fleming explained, looking Garon up and down.
"You should have a very strong foundation, how can this happen?"
If it weren't for Fleming arriving in time to suppress the turbulence in Garon's body, then I'm afraid Garon would have been devoured by the violent magic power by now, and even his head had been blown off.
"Teacher, I'm ......"
Garon's voice was weak, after the change just now, his promotion path would be delayed for at least another half a year, he glanced at the paper on the table, not knowing how to explain.
"Is it because of this paper?"
Fleming looked at the half-read paper on the table and reached for it, but Garon immediately stopped him.
"Wait, teacher, there is a problem with this paper......"
I'm afraid even Garon himself doesn't want to admit that the reason why he doesn't want Fleming to read this paper is because he is worried that his teacher will be like him, and his cognition will collapse when he reads the paper, and his magic will backlash!
"Questions?"
Fleming was even more puzzled when he heard Garon's words, ignoring Fleming's refusal to read the title of the paper.
At this moment, all the mages who were in this tower felt a slight fluctuation in their magical power.
Such fluctuations in mana were uncommon for a young mage, but Fleming immediately sensed the source of the throbbing.
In the early days of modern magic, there were many ancient mages who were reluctant to accept new theories, and after seeing first-hand theories that defied common sense be proven.
The cognition collapsed, the magic returned, and finally the whole body of the magic turbulence tore it apart, exploded and died.
And in this building, almost all of the jury members are jury, in other words, some jurors have fallen because of cognitive collapse.
How many years has it been since something like this happened!?
The last person who caused the jury's cognitive breakdown was named Isaris. Alberton, who proposed the three laws of law mechanics, led to the death of three judges who reviewed his paper due to cognitive collapse, and as for himself, he is now the only legendary mage to advance to the creation of law spells, one of the Seven Fools of the High Council, and the leader of the Weavers.
This situation has occurred again after many years, and this time, who is it?
