Meet the principal

After chatting with President Dmitry for a few more words, Reiner filled his stomach a little, and then came to the terrace to get some air. {щww{suimеng][lā}

The nights in Ernest are much cooler. The city is built along the river and has abundant water resources. The resulting climate adjustment ability makes the temperature difference between day and night in Ernest smaller. At this time, although it is midsummer It's the season, but the wind on the terrace is mixed with a bit of coolness.

"I wonder if Fina and the others have studied carefully for the exam."

Reiner said to himself that when he decided to stay in Ernest and wait for the meeting to end before returning to school, he sent a letter to Crescent College asking Claire to ensure that those students who took the exam this year could successfully complete it. Magic test, of course. In the letter, he also specifically told Fina to help Claire more.

Counting the days, it was time for the magic test. Reiner couldn't help but recall the time when he took the college entrance examination. He felt a little emotional and drank all the red wine in the glass.

"Mr. Iain Gray, do you have a moment?"

A strange voice came from behind. Reiner turned around and found that it was a male mage with many silver threads in his hair. The cuffs and five gold edges shimmered under the light. He was an intermediate mage.

"Uh, I wonder what the Lord wants to see me for?"

Reiner saluted hurriedly. No matter how he chatted and laughed with high-level mage or even legendary mage, he was still a first-level low-level mage. It was very necessary to maintain respect when facing existences of a higher level than himself.

"No need to be like this, my name is Sullivan, the senior review member of the paper review committee. In fact, I wrote the final review opinion of your first paper."

Man, Sullivan explained to Reiner with a slightly bitter smile.

"And your periodic table paper was also passed on to me."

"Oh, what a coincidence."

Reiner lamented that the evaluation of his first paper was pretty good. At least the paper review committee passed his paper. Otherwise, his second paper on electrolyzed water might not have attracted attention, and his subsequent series of experiences would have significant change.

"I want to explain to you that I am not deliberately backlogging your paper, but I am collecting materials to verify the isotope phenomenon in the paper. You must also know that it takes a certain amount of time to test elements from various demiplanes."

Sullivan said slowly, while observing Reiner's expression,

It was as if the other party was a high-level mage, and he was just a young apprentice who made a mistake.

"I can understand, Mr. Sullivan. It's not because I haven't received a reply to my paper that I went to Mr. Dmitry directly, but because it happened to coincide with the Ernest Conference. You must also understand that I got When you make a new discovery, you immediately want to share it with others.”

Reiner quickly understood what Sullivan meant.

He can now be regarded as the hottest new star in Mercury Scale, and his future is unlimited. Sullivan was worried that his actions would make Reiner feel neglected and suffer retaliation in the future, so he apologized tactfully.

Of course, it was impossible for Reiner to really make things difficult for his seniors like those powerful newcomers, so he gave Sullivan a step down.

"Sir Sullivan, you just said that you collected elements from various demiplanes in order to verify the thesis?"

"Yes, after many measurements with different methods, I did find that isotope phenomena exist in elements. However, I feel a bit ashamed to say that the following part about the laws of elements cannot be verified based on my level. I originally wanted to seek high-level The mages helped me, but I didn’t expect you to be one step ahead of me.”

Sullivan felt relieved when he saw that instead of mentioning anything about his dereliction of duty, Reiner began to care about academic issues. At the same time, he recognized Reiner a little more.

This is indeed a mage with outstanding character.

"I think the phenomenon of isotopes widely exists in various elements, but one thing I can't figure out is why some elements have several isotopes, while others only have one or two. Is there a pattern in this?"

Reiner's words struck Sullivan like a bolt of lightning.

He had never considered this issue before. In fact, in addition to the several elements mentioned in Lehner's paper, Sullivan also collected several additional elements for measurement to rule out special characteristics, which delayed time.

Sullivan did discover that isotope phenomena exist in large numbers among various elements, but he did not count the types of isotopes. It was not until Reiner reminded him that he suddenly began to recall and found that some elements did have much more isotopes.

"This is indeed a question worth studying."

With some emotion, Sullivan nodded in agreement.

He has been engaged in research and paper review in the alchemy department for so many years. Even though he personally conducted experiments to verify the isotope phenomenon, he has never thought about the issues mentioned by Reiner. From this, it seems that this mage is not only a creative thinker but also flexible. What's more important is to have a heart that always maintains a spirit of inquiry.

When he discovers a phenomenon, Reiner not only verifies the phenomenon, but also pays attention to the reasons behind the phenomenon, which is something that many mages lack.

Just like when Lady Maria discovered new elements and advanced, other mages followed suit, but few succeeded. I don't know when, many mages have lost the spirit of exploring the truth, and only think about how to advance to high levels every day. , gain greater strength and longer life.

"Due to my strength, it may be difficult to thoroughly study this issue for a while, but I think you, Lord Sullivan, might try to study it."

Reiner added that exploring the number of isotopes may involve the internal structure of elements, and many people should be involved in it in the near future. He is now trying to wake Sullivan up in advance to sell a favor.

"This...if I have a chance, I will try to study it."

Sullivan nodded slightly. He did not expect that Reiner would directly hand over such a promising and potential subject to him. Among mages, I am afraid that only teachers and students can be so generous. No, even if Masters and apprentices have also severed their relationship due to academic disputes.

Is it true that Reiner is so generous because he is unable to research it, or is this research topic no longer attractive to his eyes?

Indeed, such research based on isotopes is an excellent subject for low-level or even mid-level mages, but for Reiner, who has already written a paper on the periodic table of elements, the level is indeed a bit low.

He is obviously only a first-level mage, but Reiner's vision is already on the same level as those of high-level mage.

As the wheel of history rolled forward, Sullivan felt a deeper sense of urgency despite his luck.
