Early the next morning, in the laboratory on the north side of the teaching tower, Reiner and Charlotte had already begun to prepare for the experiment.

Reiner placed a few standard magic stones into a circle that measured the mass of the relative elements, and the lines of the magic shimmered, and this circle made and encapsulated by the alchemy workshop of the Rainbow Tower could easily measure several common elements.

The first determination of the mass of the element by the mage relied on alchemy reaction and analysis, by reacting a certain mass of the element with other elements, by the mass of the compound to compare and analyze, and finally to obtain the relative mass of the element, this method requires a lot of experiments and accurate measurement calculations.

Later, this approach evolved, and eventually, the academic community now uses one-twelfth of the mass of the elements in Carbonne as a benchmark to determine the relative elemental masses of the vast majority of known elements and compounds.

However, there is also an obvious problem with this method, that is, it is unable to distinguish between elemental elements and compounds.

Water, for example, was considered a fundamental element until Reiner's paper on electrolyzed water, with an elemental mass of 18.02361, which is located after the Carburn element and before the Magnis element, according to Lord Stenion's theory of elemental mass ordering.

But Cornwall. Penzance's electrolysis discovered two new elements, among which the Sodeon element has an elemental mass of 22.89867, which is smaller than the Magnis element, so he cut into the middle.

Then Reiner discovered that water is made up of two elements, and this order naturally changed again.

After the water was electrolyzed, the mages quickly developed a matrix of assays based on Hydra and Ocles, with some slight variations in the relative mass of the elements.

Naturally, Lord Stanion was aware of the limitations of his theory, and not all known elements could find a place in his table, but he could not find a better way to perfect it.

At this moment, Reiner is facing three circles that use different benchmarks to measure the relative elemental mass, and through the combination of these circles, a relatively accurate elemental mass can be obtained.

"Charlotte, give me a little bit of the Burren element, the one in the lab."

Reiner instructed that the way to measure the relative elemental mass is very simple, that is, put the element you want to measure into the active circle, and then you can get some values through extremely small reaction analysis, and then get the relative elemental mass.

This is very simple, but since activating the circle requires a ring of mage-level mana or three standard magic stones, it is generally not possible for apprentices to practice.

Xia Luo took a bottle of Burren element, this element is extremely difficult to obtain, and most of the Burren elements obtained by alchemy reaction have impurities, so the pure Burren element needs to be stored in a vessel with magic power, which is expensive, Reiner let Xia Luo take it to experiment at will, which can be said to be very generous.

Took a little Burren element and put it into the measuring circle, a faint light flickered, and from the circle came a surge of magic power, in the untraceable world, the Burren element is reacting with other substances in the circle, and its subtle mass changes have not escaped the monitoring of the intricate circle, and soon, a series of numbers are output from the measuring circle, and Reiner hurriedly recorded it.

"10.88927, and Xia Luo you measured 10.88931 only five decimal places have an error, which can be regarded as reasonable, but ......"

Reiner glanced at the open book next to him, and the recognized relative elemental mass of the Brenne element was 10.91046, which was a large error from Reiner's result.

They repeated the experiment twice, and then used two other measurement arrays, and the results were closer to the original data than the official values.

Charlotte glanced at Reiner, hoping for an answer.

"Let's try again."

Reiner said, but Charlotte was even more confused.

"The results of repeated experiments should only linger around this data, are we having a problem at some point?"

"There is no problem with the measurement method and process, and there is not much error in the quality of other elements you test with these measurement arrays, so the troubleshooting of the instrument can only be regarded as a problem with the element itself."

Reiner said in thought as he pulled out two small labeled bottles from his storage bag containing silver-gray powder.

"This is also a Burren element, but I asked Mr. Osborne from Prest to buy it for me yesterday, Charlotte, what do you think is the difference between these two Burlen elements?"

Handing the bottle to Charlotte, Reiner asked.

"Uh......"

Charlotte took a closer look at the Burren element, and both bottles contained similar silver-gray powder, one of which was slightly darker, and the other was larger.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Reiner, I don't see the difference."

Hearing Charlotte's answer, Reiner smiled, placed it with the bottle in the lab, and replied.

"It's the place of origin."

He turned the bottle and showed the label to Xia Luo.

It can be found that the origin of the Burren element in the laboratory is the Sorenface mine in the northern Midland Federation, and the other two bottles, one from Bumi in the Antojar half-plane and one from the Philen mine in the Gladya half-plane, are located in different star fields, far apart, and a certain distance from the main plane.

When Reiner asked Mr. Osborne for help yesterday, the other party was very surprised and didn't understand Reiner's intentions, but Mr. Osborne didn't ask too much, and sent someone to send Reiner's needs overnight, which can be said to be very refreshing.

"If the origin is different, will the Bolen element be different?"

Xia Luo tilted her head and asked, in her opinion, the elements were the most basic substances, and they were not fruits or animals, which would be different from different regions.

"I'm just experimenting with a conjecture."

Reiner shook his head, he hadn't done any experiments, and he couldn't confirm his thoughts.

"You said yesterday that maybe the elements themselves are different, and even the same element will appear of different types, right?"

"But this is just a complete hypothesis, and there are no experimental phenomena that can prove it."

Xia Luo didn't quite believe what she said, and that conjecture was just a supplement like a joke, but she didn't expect Reiner to attach so much importance to it.

"So how about we control the variables now and use these three Bleren elements from different regions to test this conjecture?"

Reiner said, taking some of the Chamberlen elements from the two vials he had brought with him and placing them in the measuring circle.

There was a flash of light, and he quickly got the reading.

"The relative elemental mass of the Brenton element from the Antojar half-plane is ...... 10.90596！ ”
