For Felix's visit, the Ilya Academy of Magic has made full preparations, replacing all kinds of things that can be exchanged, keeping the campus clean at all times, once again emphasizing that students must wear magic robes, etc., and must greet this lord with the best image.

The great magician, who had come on a personal basis but clearly had a political mission, arrived as scheduled, and was surrounded by a group of people led by the headmaster, Hans, who visited the entire college, especially the library donated in the name of the Federation.

The Magical Federation's investment in Banner is not insignificant, and the Ilha Academy of Magic has received the most benefits.

Taking this library as an example, the building itself and most of the books donated by the Federation were worth more than 100,000 gold francs in that year, and the most precious gift was a magical gem named "Pearl of the South".

Magic gems have always been extremely rare among magical items, the most typical example is the magic crystal - it can store a certain amount of mental power but is very limited, and is generally used to make a wand so that the wielder can recover a little in battle.

And this gemstone, called the "Pearl of the South", is scientifically called Chaos Luminous Stone.

Like Roman Sagan's pearl of the night, most of these rare gems are relics from the classical magic era, and humans today can't even know whether they are natural or artificial, and if so, what materials and principles were used to create them.

Unlike the earth, the civilization of this world is not always advancing, and the magical achievements of the classical period cannot be said to be higher than the modern era, at least a large amount of precious and practical knowledge has been buried, which is a very regrettable thing, not to mention that before the classical period, there were at least three ancient magical periods that can be confirmed but not fully documented.

Because of this, "Magical History" can be listed as one of the six major categories of the modern magic system, along with "Sorcery" and "Magic Pattern".

The history of this world is not just memories and records, and often a major archaeological discovery can greatly improve modern magic. And the "archaeologists" among magicians, although many of them are old people who walk tremblingly, must not be underestimated, and often have to beware of them suddenly touching a magical object that even they themselves do not know the function of, and come to burn a jade.

The function of Chaos Luminous Stone is to provide a steady and continuous light at night.

Unlike other luminous stones, it does not need to be placed in the sun at intervals to "recharge".

The darker it is, the more obvious its "illumination function" becomes, as if it is able to draw energy from the darkness, which is where the word "chaos" comes from, and similarly, its principles and materials cannot be explained by modern magical theories.

But that doesn't stop it from making a great gift.

The Chaos Luminous Stone was originally an asset of the Magic Federation, and was donated to the Ilya Academy of Magic by the Federation along with the library decades ago, and now it is placed in the vault on the top floor of the library, even if the headmaster wants to see it, it has to go through layers of approval.

This gemstone, which does not seem to have much practical use, symbolizes the friendship between the Federation and the Academy.

Today, the Academy took it out of its closed vault and placed it in the exhibition room to welcome Felix's visit.

……

Inside the exhibition hall on the ground floor of the library.

Felix walked twice around the luminous stone inside the glass enclosure and exclaimed:

"I am afraid that we have not inherited even a single bit of the splendor of ancient magic, and I am both sorry and excited to think of this, because it proves that there is still infinite room for magic to be explored."

"His Excellency Felix's words are thought-provoking, and perhaps we should write it on the walls of the library." Headmaster Hans laughed, and the crowd behind him immediately chimed in.

"It's a pity that the photo camera is at the headquarters of the federation, otherwise it would be very meaningful to take a photo on this occasion." Ackermann, who was the most sociable, said with a smile.

"I'm afraid you haven't seen a camera yet, and that big guy can't take a picture of all of us just yet." As the only one in the audience who had ever seen a photogram, Felix explained to everyone.

"I heard that the federation still doesn't have the technology to crack the camera?"

"Yes." Felix sighed: "For more than two years, we have cracked many of the excellent designs of that thing, but the real core technology has not made any progress at all, and His Excellency Isenger Haierlan, as well as Silce Mora and others are also at a loss. ”

"I didn't expect that even the heirs of Sir Schiller Mora couldn't unlock the secret of the gramograph, it seems that the Tulum Kingdom really got some opportunity."

"Technology is the purest thing, what can be done is what can be done, what can't is not good, and it has little to do with the country." Felix didn't know what to think of, and said with some emotion.

"Speaking of technology."

Ackerman raised a smile: "Since Your Excellency Felix is here, we can't let you go, and we must give us a lot of guidance on the magic teaching and research of this school." ”

"Let's talk and learn together." After all, coming with a mission, Felix somewhat restrained his withdrawn and impersonal character, "I just arrived in Ilya yesterday, and I heard that your school has made progress in the research of the Burning Demon Pattern Group in energy conversion?" ”

"Haha, I did find that it would be better if I could get the guidance and advice of His Excellency Felix."

At the end of the visit, it was just around noon, and the college prepared a relatively simple lunch for Felix, accompanied only by the president, Hans and Ackermann, and in the evening, there was a grand dinner, which was also attended by Colin and other ordinary professors.

After lunch, it was the scheduled exchange time, after all, the visit was carried out in the name of academic exchanges.

Felix didn't come alone, he was accompanied by six of the Federation's magicians.

……

In the research room, a large oval wooden table is crowded with people.

Felix put down a few materials and nodded:

"I don't have a deep research on the subject of the Burning Demon Pattern Group, so I don't dare to point fingers, but at present, there is no problem with this final report, and I believe that the author has already done relevant experiments, as long as the paper comes out, it will not be difficult to cause a sensation...... I wonder if this Professor Snape is here? ”

"Mr. Snape didn't come, but he would be at the dinner party that night."

"I looked at his resume, he was really young and promising."

No matter how good Cohen Snape is, after all, he was only a student of Cambrigis before, and he is not yet able to be understood by a magician of the level of Fiklis.

"In addition to this project, Professor Snape has also submitted another project on the high-energy collapse of the water element, which has also passed the preliminary review." Ackerman smiled: "But this is just a small discovery, and in front of you, Lord Felix, there is a suspicion that the class is getting an axe." ”

"Two projects at the same time?" Felix wasn't much surprised, but he was still curious: "Academics naturally need to be communicated, can you let me take a look?" ”

"Of course."

Ackerman took the final materials that had been prepared from the sea of books and paper and put them in front of Felix.

Felix picked up the material and began to read it carefully.

Regardless of the purpose of the visit, when it comes to academics, especially his own area of expertise, Felix can quickly become distracted.

Reading a final document is not a matter of minutes, and at this time, everyone began to communicate with each other as well.

However, it was not long ago.

Everyone saw Felix put the materials in his hand back on the table, his face heavy.

If you look closely, you can also see that his hand inadvertently clutches the paper, crumpling the marks.

Everyone stopped communicating, and focused their eyes on Felix, who didn't look good.

"Your Excellency Ackerman, the humility of your school is truly eye-opening......"

Felix said in a deep voice, "You call this a small discovery?!" ”
