——Thank you all, I have been in the top ten of the monthly vote list for a long time today, and the gap is not big at the moment. I continue to ask for support from monthly votes.
In addition, taking into account the recovery of my own update time and the continuity of the plot, the second chapter tonight will be postponed to 11:30. It will be a big chapter of 5,000 words by then, which means that the update tomorrow morning will be advanced to today.
Late update, a total of 9,000 words, equivalent to three chapters.
…………………………………………………………………………
Under the gaze of many arcanists, Laventi, who was standing behind the experimental device, started the topic directly without any nonsense: "In the legends of elves, dragons, humans and other intelligent races, the worlds are very similar at the beginning: lightning.
Thunders, volcanic eruptions, floods. Even the Church we hate the most has similar descriptions in their "Sacred Code". When the debate about whether living matter can be artificially synthesized arose, the 'part' high arcanist of the Elemental Will
Inspired, I came up with an idea: why don't we simulate this kind of environment? Let's see what happens in a similar natural environment."
Although his voice was suppressed as low as possible, everyone could hear his hidden excitement. Felipe nodded thoughtfully: "High temperature, lightning, could there be natural generation of methane, urea and other living substances, which will change the experimental environment?"
Can artificial synthesis be extended to the natural environment? This can further overturn the theory of human vitality and give the church a heavier blow. Was it conceived by the professor or the higher-ups of Elemental Will? From the tone of Lord Laventi, it seems that the experiment was successful?"
While thinking about it, Felipe turned to look at Lucien and found that he had a solemn expression and was watching intently. He seemed to be unclear about the content of the experiment: "It shouldn't be him. If there was such a decisive result, he would have thrown it out long ago.
,How come it’s my turn?”
Other arcanists had similar thoughts. After all, this was the focus of the discussion during this period, and Laventi directly stated that he was inspired by it, so they whispered to each other and discussed in a low voice.
"What living matter will appear?"
"Methane, right? This kind of living substance is found in many places where volcanoes erupt. It's just considered to be produced by the decay of plants buried underground, and is ejected with volcanic eruptions."
"Is this directly eliminating the interference of plants and other living organisms and using the most primitive natural environment?"
The arcanists below were talking a lot, and among the waiters waiting for orders outside the main door, Nicholas and Valente used all their strength to suppress their anger and keep their emotions calm so as not to be sensed by the high-level arcanists.
arrive.
"These damn blasphemous evil magicians are trying to break into the realm of God! Everything is caused by Felipe, the blasphemer! It's all him, he must be purified!"
The two people who relied on special magical items to suppress their magical aura and power seemed like real ordinary people. Under the arrangement of the old mage Fern, they sneaked into Saliva Manor half a day in advance and braved the cold wind of early spring with other waiters.
Wait by the gate.
Only when ordered by the magic apprentices in charge of them can they go in with hot water and towels.
Unexpectedly, before the two of them found the opportunity, they saw Laventi walking onto the platform and heard him introduce the situation of the experiment. They almost couldn't control the burning anger in their hearts and dedicated themselves to the Lord.
"Quiet, please be quiet!" Laventi's loud voice stopped the buzzing whispers in the hall.
Looking around the hall, Laventi continued: "Based on the analysis of gases near volcanic eruptions and the analysis of the elements that constitute living matter, we will introduce completely pure water, hydrogen, methane and ammonia into this experimental device."
"Methane is artificially synthesized by passing carbon-burning gas through hydrogen with the help of a catalyst... and the final gas proportion injected was selected from many sets of controlled experiments we conducted at the same time."
Watching Laventi open the alchemy array to artificially prepare ammonia and methane, Tina Demos, Felipe and other arcanists began to wonder what substance he wanted to refine.
Obviously, the experiment of artificially synthesizing methane can be valued as one of the series of evidences that overturn the theory of human vitality, but Laventi behaved as if he had prepared something in a magic laboratory, which was not worth mentioning at all.
In a quiet but doubtful atmosphere, Laventi was unhurried and synthesized the gas in clear steps.
"Methane is really made from non-living substances. It is no longer just produced by rotting corpses and some bacterial life..." After a while, I witnessed Laventi calmly mixing the newly prepared gas with hydrogen in proportion and introducing it.
Behind the glass bottle in the upper left corner of the experimental device, many necromancers couldn't help but sigh inwardly. In just over a week, many of their past concepts had been ruthlessly overturned.
Before importing it, Laventi not only used a magic circle to verify that there were no other gases in it, but also asked Pesol, Felipe and others to complete the identification using their own identification techniques to ensure the authenticity of the experimental results.
Such a rigorous attitude made the arcanists more and more curious about the results, and then Laventi directly poured the pure water generated by the combustion of hydrogen and oxygen into the glass bottle in the lower left corner.
"Now the experimental environment and experimental materials have been prepared. They are all common things in the natural environment. Next, let's start the formal experiment." Laventi opened the magic circle and let a continuous electricity appear in the glass bottle in the upper left corner.
Sparks, "This is simulated lightning."
"This is a simulation of the high temperature and flooding of a volcanic eruption." Raven introduced first while activating the alchemy array around the glass bottle in the lower right corner.
Then he opened the conduit valve to connect the entire experimental device. The pure water in the glass bottle in the lower right corner evaporated at high temperature, entered the glass bottle in the upper left corner through the conduit, met the mixed gas, and was shrouded in "lightning" that kept appearing.
, and after a period of time, the naturally condensed water returns to the water-filled glass bottle through the lower conduit and other experimental devices.
Seeing the cycle complete, Laventi exited the platform and activated the surrounding protective magic circle: "This will take about a week. I will open the magic circle and ask all the arcanists to place their own unique magic marks around it.
Prevent human interference in the experiment during this period."
"It will take about a week? What exactly is this going to do?" The arcanists did not understand the significance of this experiment at all. Timothy, who was wearing gold-rimmed glasses and was elegant, said humorously: "Could a baby be born in it?
?So it takes a long time to get pregnant?”
None of the necromancers paid attention to such obviously joking remarks. Refining the human body is extremely complicated. Even if the issue of the soul is not mentioned, more complex living substances are not so easy to produce! This experiment is too simple and difficult.
Imagine what advanced products could appear!
Laventi nodded seriously: "Yes, it will take about a week. During this time, we happened to be discussing the issue of alchemy substances that help plants grow. The rooms on the four floors above the main house and the several buildings behind are enough for everyone, and
Please supervise the independent and objective operation of this magic."
Confused, Pesol, Rogelio and others used the communication technique to consult the nearby undead master, and then agreed to Laventi's request. They themselves were also very curious about what this experiment that simulated the primitive environment could prove.
Ecthelion and Elestine, who were sitting next to Lucien, were very interested in nature and primitive things, but they knew little about magic experiments and couldn't guess what this experiment that simulated the primitive natural environment was trying to do.
Therefore, curiosity overcame disgust, and he turned to Lucien and asked: "Mr. Evans, what did your high-level arcanist of Elemental Will design this experiment to prove?"
"According to what Mr. Laventi said, it may be to further overthrow the theory of human vitality and prove that simple living substances can also appear in the natural environment." Lucien said that other arcanists had the same guess, but it was enough to fool the two of them.
The Elf Royal Family.
Elestine is used to rubbing her pink lips with her right index finger when thinking. She is more convinced that there is a huge gap between living things and non-living things, but the discussions among magicians in the past few days have made her a little shaken: "
Appearing in a natural environment... seems pretty good."
"Original natural will? Without the intervention of gods?" Ecthelion thought doubtfully with a druid's thinking.
Nicola and Valente outside the main house were very anxious. Their plan was divided into two plans. One was to enter the hall after being ordered and pass around Felipe, then they would do a thunderous strike with a certain death mentality.
, the other is if the old mage Fern cannot create an opportunity for them to pass around Felipe, then wait for the magicians' discussion to end and suddenly attack Felipe when he comes out.
As a result, this meeting lasted for a week! And the longer it went, the easier it was for the two of us to be discovered!
I just hope that Felipe is not arranged to live on the upper floors of the main house but in other buildings, so that when evening comes, he will also leave the hall.
The old mage Fern, who was sitting in the front seat in the center of the hall, touched the gray beard on his lips with a solemn expression. If the opportunity does not appear naturally, then create one yourself, but it seems that it is too late today.
Laventi waited until the discussion among the arcanists gradually stopped and said: "This time the research with the druids is progressing smoothly. Among them, the three alchemical substances proposed by Lucien Evans have been confirmed and can effectively help food.
Increased production. This is of immeasurable importance to all human nations."
"Now the experiment has entered the observation stage without the influence of the druids' natural magic. It will take about four to five months. Therefore, we will discuss in advance what other alchemical substances are useful and how to simplify their alchemical reactions for the convenience of everyone.
Scale preparation and popularization. Next, Evans will share with everyone the process of his discovery."
Warm applause rang out. At least in the minds of most arcanists, if Lucien had not accidentally synthesized urea, Felipe would never have thought of overturning the theory of human vitality. Although his results were not conclusive, they were not at all conclusive.
No doubt worthy of respect.
The few necromancers who understand that the world is chaotic and find it difficult to meditate effectively glanced at Lucien who walked up to the platform with a bit of resentment, but they had no urge to kill him. After all, it was Felipe who overturned the theory of human vitality, etc.
Only after I had the opportunity to teach him a lesson would it be someone else's turn.
Lucien cleared his throat and talked about the experience of this experiment in a gentle voice. The control experiments were confirmed by Elestine and other elves and Theodore and other magicians. There were no problems - although they tampered with them.
Part of the data was obtained, but Lucien changed it back based on reasoning.
After explaining the process of arcane research, just when everyone was clapping and thinking that Lucien would come down, Lucien made a downward gesture to signal the arcane masters to be quiet.
Amid everyone's doubtful gazes, Lucien spoke with a serious expression: "Through my arcane thesis and everyone's experiments, I think everyone has noticed that these elements that are proven to help plant growth must be contained in elements that can help plants grow.
Alchemical substances dissolved in water can be absorbed by plants."
"Isn't this obvious? Plants mainly rely on water and sunlight, so they can only be absorbed by it when dissolved in water. I think most arcanists will think of this after the previous few experiments failed, but Mr. Evans, you have advanced it
." An arcanist who was affected by the theory of human vitality and was good at both elemental magic said with slight dissatisfaction.
An elusive smile appeared on Lucien's delicate face: "Since it is obvious, then I want to ask everyone, why can it be absorbed only when it is dissolved in water? Why can't those particulate matter suspended in water? Plants do
Relying on water and sunlight, but there is no direct experiment to prove that water is just used as a transportation tool! Why is there such a big difference between an alchemical substance before and after it is dissolved in water? Regarding the last point, fellow arcanists
Similar phenomena should have been noticed in other magic experiments, but why?"
The series of reasons made the arcanists feel a little dizzy, but when they carefully recalled the magic experiments they had done, they found that there were indeed similar phenomena, such as the huge difference in conductivity between salt crystals and salt solutions. However, these phenomena are too common.
It has become common and is regarded as common sense, and no one thinks about why.
After asking these questions, Lucien stepped off the platform and gave time to the arcanists for discussion.
"Evans, you're doing this again. I remember that after the periodic table of elements was confirmed, you also asked a series of why, just like Speaker Douglas's habit." Larry's chubby round face showed an emotional smile, "You
Your sensitivity to problems is amazing, and this is what I need to learn from you."
Before Lucien could be polite, Timothy pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses and said jokingly: "Evans, I think there are a few nicknames that suit you, such as 'Questioning Evans', such as 'Question'
'er', what do you think?"
"It doesn't sound good, and the first nickname also includes a name." Lucien shook his head and walked through them, heading towards the center.
Timothy smiled and said: "What do you think is a better description, Evans?"
"A hundred thousand whys..." Lucien sat down expressionlessly.
…………
In the demiplane space, the Storm Lord chuckled softly: "There are so many problems." At the same time, he turned his head and glanced at Douglas, the Speaker of the Magic Council.
Feeling the storm master's gaze, Douglas withdrew his gaze from the experimental device. Just now he was simulating the possible results of this experiment in his own meditation environment and did not pay attention to what happened next, so he returned a questioning look.
"One hundred thousand whys." The Storm Lord called in a low voice.
Douglas asked strangely: "What?"
…………
Thanks to Lucien's questions, the arcanist had a direction for the discussion. From time to time, people came to the stage to speak, and used other alchemy platforms to complete experiments. Occasionally, someone put forward a hypothesis, which was falsified. Time passed very quickly.
After that, Lucien and Felipe were arranged in the upper room of the main house, and the waiters were all served by a small number of magic apprentices, so that Nicholas and Valente had no chance to sneak in. This made the old mage Fern
I almost wanted to do it myself, but unfortunately he was in another house.
During the day, Nicholas and Valente occasionally had the opportunity to enter the hall, but Felipe and Lucien sat carefully among the many arcanists, drinking water that they had prepared before, and did not give them to them at all.
The chance of poisoning and attacking people made them very disappointed. However, not being "discovered" by high-level arcanists made them bolder and felt that special magical items were very effective.
Seeing that seven days were about to pass without any chance, the old mage Fern became impatient. When Felipe returned to Hyder City, he, the elemental mage, would be unable to help! (To be continued. Please search for Piaotian Literature, novels are better.
