Since the periodic table has been in use for more than two years, its irrefutable regularity has always hinted to the magicians who use it and study it that the atom is not so simple, otherwise why would it show periodic laws, so when Morris, Lavendi, Gaston and other high-level leaders began to slowly point out the problem, and vaguely led to the error of the atomic theory, most of the middle and high-level arcanists gradually became confused.

After Hathaway used the discovery of the same element in the "closed training" to deal a heavy blow to the atomism she had established, there were very few middle- and high-level arcanists who refused to doubt the errors of the atomism in the elemental will, and low-level arcanists, magic apprentices, etc., easily accepted it.

It is easier for mages outside of the elemental will to transform into a less solid position.

This is an era of terrifying development, not only the Magic Council is exploring more and more, but the Southern Church, the Northern Church, the Druids, etc. are all growing rapidly, and whoever is left behind may disappear in one or two hundred years, so after seeing the situation of changing views, the sense of urgency made the Supreme Council no longer wait, and decided that the October issue of "Arcane" will be the first to publish Lucian's paper "The Discovery of a New Particle", in order to kick off the exploration of the microscopic world!

As for the few arcanists who still refuse to suspect the error of atomic theory, it is not taken into account.

"It's cruel, but it's also realistic. Outside of the Wizard's Management Department, Lucien said to Lazar.

Lazar was a determined elemental mage, and his bright optimistic smile became very dim, almost bitter: "I remember Lucian's phrase that you often joke about. The wheels of history are rolling forward, crushing everything that stands in its way, but not so long ago, they were all known as excellent arcanists with potential and who know how to endure hardships, how did they become outcasts of fate in just one month?"

The "Atomic Research Institute" is Lucian's "territory", and the task of changing the ideological views of the magicians and magic apprentices in the institute naturally has to be completed by him.

Fortunately, as the discoverer of the periodic law of the elements, the first arcane artist to question the meaning behind the law, Lucian's attitude has long indirectly affected his friends, plus the cathode ray was discovered by the atomic research institute, and many experiments were completed by them. Moreover, most of the theories are still being used and understood by low-level arcanists. Things are going very well.

So two weeks earlier, Lucien had read the paper to them and demonstrated the experiment again, and everyone accepted that there were even smaller particles. The fact that atoms are not necessarily indivisible.

"That's the cruelty of fate. However, they themselves are also using the periodic table. There is foreshadowing ahead. The impact should only make them realize that the world is broken rather than collapsed, and even if it is difficult to advance further, there is still a glimmer of hope. It cannot be ruled out that they will one day overcome themselves and re-accept the changed atomism. Lucien understood that Lazar was cheerful, enthusiastic, well-traveled, and had many friends within the Elemental Will, and that one of the dozen or so Arcanists who could not accept that the atomic theory had been questioned had a good relationship with him this time, so he comforted him.

Lazar laughed: "No need to be comforted, Lucien, I just feel it for a moment, in fact, on the road of magic, there are many people who stop moving forward for various reasons, and even die, every year. They are much better than the magicians who have died of decay or cursed in the laboratory. ”

As he spoke, Lazar coughed and learned the words of the "Inquisitor": "The magicians tried to spy on the realm of the gods, and violated the prohibition, so they will be inexplicably exhausted, died violently, or were cursed, which is the price of blasphemy!"

"No, this is what the God of Truth fears of us! The closer we get to the truth of the world, the more mad He becomes, the more mad He curses us. To be cursed by Him is to show that we are on the right path, and that one day we will unmask His hypocrisy!" Lucien smiled when he saw that Lazar could still joke.

These two lines of dialogue are classic lines from the recently popular opera "Cerrod" in Alinge, which is wildly loved by magicians, and similar dialogues can be heard everywhere - "Cerrod" is a fictional magician who has a great talent for arcane and magic, has proposed many essential laws and improved many powerful magic, but is later betrayed by his beloved lover and burned to death by the church. This dialogue appears in the "Inquisition".

And the author of this opera is naturally the great arcanist Oliver, who has a strong literary temperament.

Roque watched them "stage" the opera from the side, and said "helplessly": "If you like the opera, you can perform it yourself." Lucien, don't you have a great talent for music? Lord Oliver's script is great, but the musicians who adapted it into opera have not been good enough, for example, the story of "Cerrod" is very moving, but the melody is hardly a classic. Anyway, don't delay me in updating my Arcane Emblem, I can't wait to see how far I can get to the middle rank!"

He nagged and passed between the two, and Annick, Heidi, and the other apprentices also glanced at Lucien with a little guilt, and then immediately followed excitedly to the offices of the different deacons, who were about to become official arcanists!

- Previously, they were working while preparing for the promotion to official magician, but it wasn't Lucien who reminded them and almost forgot to update the badge.

"Actually, perhaps, I'm already in the middle rank?" Lazar came back to his senses, uncontrollably excited, turning and walking towards Eric's office.

Although many experiments on cathode rays have been completed this month, his paper has been sharply reduced to one, but there should be citation points!

Lucien smiled and shook his head, and also walked into Eric's office, it was because he casually said that he was coming to renew the badge and buy the latest issue of Arcane, that the entire Atomic Research Institute members were sent out en masse.

"You're only five arcane points away from reaching level three, Lazar, the discovery of cathode rays really makes you 'all-you-can-eat'. Eric sighed and joked Lazar in Allinge's slang "all-you-can-eat."

Before that, Lazar was already smiling brightly. Excited, but at this time, he tapped his lips, shook his head, and said, "There are still five arcane points left, I don't know when the Dao will be able to get ......"

Seeing Lucien come in, Eric did not continue to sit as before, but got up and shook hands: "I heard that many members of the Magic Research Committee are not optimistic about the 'Atomic Research Institute', and don't think that Evans You can make any big achievements in three years, but I can't imagine that after only one or two months of establishment, you have discovered a new ray, which has been highly praised by the review committee." ”

"The 'Atomic Institute' may have a better future than we expected. It's a pity that my main research direction is not elemental. Otherwise, they would like to resign from their positions as deacons and join the institute. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Eric, for your attention, at least for three years we will not have to worry about the results, and we can study in the direction we envisaged. Can you update the badge for me?" Lucien handed Eric his five silver star Arcane Badge.

A suspicious smile appeared on Eric's stiff face: "The results of the evaluation of the influencing factor have come out, and "Arcane" and "Magic" are the highest 3.0. Arcanists who have the ability to get their papers listed in both journals will increase their rank quickly. Evans: You have several papers published in Arcane. I believe that there will be no less in the future. Maybe in two or three years, you will be able to become a level 6 arcanist and advance to a higher level, which is much faster than your magic level. ”

While saying. He rang the bell as he placed Lucian's arcane insignia in the small cage.

"Oh, today is the number one, the date when the Factor of Influence is officially implemented, and what are the other journals?" Lucien only knew about Arcane, Magic, Elemental, and Ordinary Arcanist Monthly.

Eric took out a document that had just been issued not long ago: "Except for "Arcane" and "Magic", there is no 3.0, the journals of the seven factions such as "Electromagnetism", "Force Field" and "Element" are 2.5, the journals of the four factions of "Light and Darkness", "Illusion", "Transfiguration" and "Summoning", the journals sponsored by the five branches of the Magic Council, and the journals of six small fields such as "Golem" and "Ice and Snow" are 2.0. ”

"The Journal of Northland Magic, the Monthly Branch of the Magical Council of the Solal Islands, and the journals of nine sub-domains, such as "Sonic Wave", and the "Monthly Journal of General Arcanists" are 1.5, and the journals of four sub-fields such as "Blessing" and "Curse", and five general journals such as "Arcane Discussion" are 1.0. ”

In the past few years, due to the increase in the number of magicians, the review committee approved the addition of a small field journal, three comprehensive journals.

Lucien, who has become a badge of the reviewers, knows more than Eric about the criteria for evaluation, which is to encourage the study of arcane and magic, so that magicians do not indulge in the theories of ancient inheritance, and even if those theories are correct, they should delve into the reasons why the theories are correct or establish a complete system that is easy to learn.

Suddenly, the small cage lit up with a bright silver, but before the silver stopped, the milky white light mixed in.

"What's going on?" Eric frowned in confusion, wasn't he simply updating the badge?

Lazar twitched the corners of his mouth, every time there was a Lucien, something was wrong......

The light died down, and there were not only arcane badges in the small cage, but three more things, a badge with a backside up, two documents, and a book with a dark black cover.

"Arcane Journal?" Today's Arcane Journal is a little late, Eric thought it would be postponed until tomorrow, but he didn't expect it to be sent directly through the teleportation array in the tower, which is really weird.

So, he was the first to pick up the Arcane journal and found that there was an extra line of silver-white words with a medium font on the cover of countless silver-white lines:

"The door to the microcosm is opening to us.

- Lucien Evans? X”

Eric turned his head to look at Lucien in surprise, the cover inscription of "Arcane" has only appeared more than thirty times so far, each time it is a theory that changes the times or an unusually significant discovery, and then the Great Arcanist and the legendary magician outline the inscription of the territory to explain the meaning, as a scene in the historical record, this time it will actually be written by Lucian Evans?!

"Actually, I'd like to write, 'Arcanists, do you want to ascend to the throne of the Arcane?' (To be continued......)
