Meet the principal

Going back a few days, it was when Reiner sent his latest paper to the review committee.

This paper, like hundreds of other papers submitted at the same time, was backed up after repeated review, and then assigned to the hands of three mages.

And one of them happened to be Galleons.

On this day, while he was enjoying the fragrant coffee, the teleportation circle on the table jingled, and a paper appeared in the circle. Garen picked up the stack of parchment, looked at it carefully, and almost jumped out of his chair. Sit up and down.

The title of the paper is "Properties of the two new elements "Ocles" and "Hydra" obtained by electrolysis of water and analysis of their compounds, as well as several conjectures about the combustion theory", and the author is actually that Reiner .Iain Gray!

Gallon's hand holding the paper was trembling. He looked at the title of the paper again. This time, he finally couldn't hold back his wavering mood. The paper fell from his hand and scattered to the ground. Gallon, on the other hand, was sluggish. I watched all this happen, and after a long time, I breathed a sigh of relief.

What is coming will always come.

He stood up, picked up the papers, and arranged them in order. Before starting to review, he looked at the title again. He knew every word of the title, but when put together, it was like the most vicious curse. Tickling his spirit.

Garen thought for a moment and summoned a crystal worm.

"Record my words. If I die due to magic backlash while reading this paper, then all my inheritance will be donated to the mercury scale."

He prepared his will in advance because subconsciously, he felt that this paper would have a huge impact on his soul.

The crystal worm recorded Galen's words and then slowly floated away. The room became quiet again, and Galen slowly opened the paper.

The format of the paper is as neat and beautiful as the previous one, and it is pleasing to the eye, but the words inside are like the sharpest blade, constantly piercing Gallon's heart.

I have heard of electrolytic gallon, which is a method of separating substances newly discovered by Lord Cornwall Penzance. He published a paper on this, successfully separated caustic alkali, and extracted an extremely reactive substance. The metal element "Keira".

In Reiner's paper, he also used electrolysis, but the object of electrolysis was none other than water, one of the "four basic elements"!

As we all know, in the theory of the modern alchemical system, the four elements of wind, water, fire, and earth are the smallest units of matter and are basic elements that cannot be broken down again.

If Reiner's previous paper challenged the combustion theory, then this paper is undoubtedly challenging the entire modern alchemical system!

Over the past three hundred years, countless alchemist masters have tried various methods to decompose the basic elements, but almost all of them ended in failure. The entities of the earth element and the fire element have not yet been found, and the water element has remained intact despite various methods. , the wind element is fickle, and no one can shake the existence of these four basic elements.

But Reiner clearly wrote on the parchment that he used electrolysis to decompose water.

Garen stared at the description of the experimental process, which was clear and organized. If it weren't for the fact that the content of the experiment was too blasphemous to magic, then he would have been unable to help but applaud.

He finished reading the experimental process of electrolyzing water, and the next chapter was about the measurement of various properties of the two new elements.

When Garen saw "Ocles" and "Hydra" completely burning at a volume ratio of one to two, producing water, he only felt dizzy before his eyes. It was clearly afternoon, but the world around him seemed to be trapped in a slump. In the dark night, countless stars flicker and fade. In the middle of the night sky, the star belonging to Galleon is crumbling, as if it will fall in the next moment!

At this time, a hand grabbed Garen, causing him to wake up suddenly.

Everything passed in an instant, as if he had had a long dream. A magic power from the palm on his shoulder continued to circulate in Garen's body, neutralizing his chaotic magic power, and then stabilized Garen and made him Get out of the magic backlash.

"call......"

Garen let out a long sigh of relief and then looked at the person who helped him.

"Teacher Fleming, how could you?"

That person was his teacher, Fleming Ernst. The old man was wearing a gray robe as always. He pointed at the crystal worm that appeared at an unknown time and said.

"This crystal worm found me and repeated what you said, so I came to see what was going on."

Fleming explained, looking Galleon up and down.

"Your foundation should be very solid. How could this happen?"

It was obvious that Garen's cognition just suffered a huge impact, which caused the backlash of his magic power. If Fleming hadn't arrived in time and suppressed the turbulence in Garen's body, I'm afraid Garen would have been consumed by the violent magic power by now. Devoured, and even had his head blown off.

"Teacher, I..."

Garen's voice was weak. After the changes just now, his promotion path would be delayed for at least another half year. He glanced at the paper on the table and didn't know how to explain it.

"Is it because of this paper?"

Fleming looked at the half-read paper on the table and reached out to take it, but Gallon immediately stopped him.

"Wait a minute, teacher, there's something wrong with this paper..."

I am afraid that even Galen himself is unwilling to admit that the reason why he did not want Fleming to read this paper was because he was worried that his teacher would be like him, and his cognition would collapse while reading the paper, and his magic power would backfire!

"has a problem?"

Fleming was even more confused when he heard Gallon's words. He ignored Fleming's obstruction and wanted to read the title of the paper.

At this time, all the mages in this tower felt a slight fluctuation of magic power.

Such fluctuations in magic power were unusual for a young mage, but Fleming immediately noticed the source of this throbbing.

In the early days of the vigorous development of modern magic, there were many ancient mages who were unwilling to accept new theories. Such a situation would occur after witnessing the proof of theories that violated common sense.

Cognition collapsed, magic power backfired, and finally the turbulent magic power in his body tore him apart, and he exploded to death.

And in this building, almost all the review committee members are members. In other words, some review members have died due to cognitive collapse.

How many years has this happened? ! ?

The last person who caused the cognitive collapse of the review committee was named Isaris Eberton. He proposed the three laws of law system mechanics, which caused the three review members who reviewed his paper to die due to cognitive collapse. As for himself, Now he is the only legendary mage who has advanced with the Law of Creation spells, one of the Seven Fools of the High Council, and the leader of the Spellweavers.

This situation occurs again after many years. Who is it this time?
