Chapter 9 Persuasion

After Lazar and others left, the bustling hall suddenly became deserted. Lucien ordered Leo to close the door and turn on the protective magic circle. He returned to the study and began to write a paper.

The night was quiet, and Arlinge at high altitude was especially quiet and empty. In such a peaceful and far-reaching atmosphere, Lucien's thinking became clear, and he wrote a topic on ordinary white paper that had not been treated with magic: "The Human Body's Self-Generated Electricity and the Brain

Experiments on emitting special electromagnetic waves and their application in illusion."

There is very little information on brain waves in the Soul Library. It should be said that the earth is still at a shallow level in similar research. Lucien had to enrich the paper and improve the reliability of the paper through the analysis and feedback of several illusions.

, belongs to the type of looking for evidence with direction and conclusion.

Therefore, Lucien had a very difficult time writing this paper. If the previous papers were based on the differences and specific experiments in the magical world to modify the papers on the earth, then this paper is about collecting information, experimenting on his own, and doing his own experiments.

The argument is a semi-original result. It took two or three hours of deletion, deletion, and revision to sort out the general content.

With a gentle breath, Lucien did not directly write the compiled content into a rigorously formatted paper. Instead, he put away the paper and prepared to bring it to his teacher Fernando for evaluation in the morning, and then revise it based on his opinions. Since he has a great arcana

Teacher, you definitely can’t waste “resources” in vain.

After closing his eyes for a few minutes and enjoying the coolness of the night breeze and the tranquility of "everyone is sleeping and I am awake alone" at night, and "alone from the world and independent", Lucien once again took out a stack of white paper, picked up the magic quill and wrote "Atoms"

"Institute" application.

Writing this application gave Lucien a huge headache. Because any specific research direction may expose his shocking views on atomic issues. Atoms are not the most basic and indivisible substances. They have a magical internal structure! Without exposing this view

Several research directions seem to have nothing to do with atoms, and are closer to discharges and magnetic fields. It is definitely not possible to apply in the name of the Institute of Atomic Research, which is really a dilemma.

So Lucien had to give a broad and vague explanation of the significance, purpose, and general direction of research of the "Atomic Research Institute".

When he re-read the application after completing it, Lucien sighed sincerely: "It's not that easy to cheat for funds. If the application for the 'Atomic Research Institute' cannot be approved, then switch to other more specific research directions.

We do not use the name 'Atomic Research Institute'. But in this way, the research of each project is short-term and cannot be maintained for a long time."

As a person who has great interest and ambition in defrauding funds, Lucien has broken away from the vulgarity and low-level taste of ordinary arcanists. He wants to establish a long-term organization for defrauding funds. This will not only save a lot of energy, but also

Your own expenses on experiments will be reduced to a minimum, and the income from the "Mineral and Harvest Company" can be accumulated to prepare for the future. Whether it is the magic ritual to advance to a high level or the construction of a magic tower after high level,

The refining and purchasing of magic items and the rituals constructed with all kinds of wonderful magic are all a waste of money.

"Show the application from the Atomic Research Institute to the teacher. If I can get his support, things will be much simpler. If necessary, I can reveal some real research ideas..." Lucien thought with a slightly burning look in his eyes.

Although it is more likely to be met with roars and criticisms, in order to defraud funds, I can only bite the bullet and try it!

After a while, Lucien regained his composure and began to analyze the selected five-ring magic "Fernando's Lightning Furnace".

Because he did not expect that his soul and mental power could reach the fifth-ring standard so quickly, Lucien has never tried to analyze the fifth-ring magic. Even the third-ring and fourth-ring magic still have a large part that he has not yet started, so he has to

Instead of focusing most of your energy on this for the time being, raise your magic level first and then go back to mastering other lower-level magics.

…………

The next day, Lucien arrived at the Magic Council headquarters early.

"Good morning, Mr. Evans." Two big black eyes appeared on the door, and Tarling Prosper greeted him warmly.

Lucien replied politely: "Good morning, Prosper, how have you been lately? I forgot to say hello to you yesterday."

"It's still the same. I have to tolerate the magicians coming in and out of my body every day. Yesterday, haha..." Prospell definitely refused to admit that he didn't dare to appear in front of the Storm Lord. "Mr. Evans, I heard that

Are you almost reaching the fifth ring? I like magicians who advance so quickly. When you become a high-level magician and start building a magic tower, don’t forget our agreement. A female tower spirit is gentle, patient, and meticulous.

Much better than me!"

When did we have an agreement... Lucien casually muttered a few words to the enthusiastic Prosper, tightened his collar, and quickly stepped into the magic tower.

It was still early, and the parliament headquarters was deserted. Lucien arrived at Fernando's study on the 33rd floor without meeting anyone.

Storm Lord Fernando was still wearing his favorite bright red ancient-style robe, sitting behind the desk and reading a letter.

"Lucien, if there is nothing else, please read these letters for me first, and then write a reply according to my dictation. After doing this, we will go to the laboratory to measure the thermal radiation data of different substances at different temperatures." Fernando did not.

Praise Lucien for arriving early and giving direct instructions.

Lucien quickly replied: "Teacher, I roughly wrote the paper last night. Please give me your guidance."

"The efficiency is not slow." Fernando nodded and took the white paper in Lucien's hand. He did not just read it casually because it was a paper written by an intermediate magician. Instead, he read it carefully and used it from time to time.

Magic verification.

Seeing Fernando's brows slowly frowning, Lucien suddenly felt frightened.

"The logical relationship is vague and far-fetched. How can you convince the review committee with a paper like yours?!"

The expected fault finally appeared, but luckily it wasn't a roar, and Lucien quickly acted like he was listening.

After criticizing Lucien's paper almost from beginning to end, making Lucien feel that the paper was "worthless", Fernando put away his slightly high-pitched voice and nodded lightly: "Of course, compared to most

Some arcanists are either rigid or have shocking errors in their papers. Your paper is quite interesting, groundbreaking and groundbreaking, and there are not many omissions. Please correct the mistakes or straighten out the logical order and submit it to

The review committee. By the way, don’t add the teacher’s name to the paper like other magician disciples do, I don’t want my name to appear on such an imprecise paper.”

"Yes, teacher." Lucien quietly wiped away the non-existent sweat. Although Fernando didn't roar just now, the many loopholes he pointed out so sharply still made him shed a cold sweat. He had the illusion of being hit by a violent storm.

Why didn't I find these errors when I reviewed it myself? The first semi-original paper was indeed full of problems.

Seeing that Fernando was about to pick up the letter again, Lucien hurriedly said: "Teacher, I plan to apply for an arcane research project. Please take a look."

"Arcane research project. Can you allocate your energy?" Fernando took the application and asked casually, and then said a little funny, "Atomic Research Institute? This is really a big research project. Well." The main purpose of this research institute is

The direction is to study the relationship between the periodic rules of elements and atoms, to explore why atoms of different elements exhibit various properties in addition to the differences in atomic weight and volume, and to try to integrate elements with electromagnetism, light and darkness and other magic at the atomic level... In general

Specifically speaking, in order to promote the development of elemental magic and the improvement of the arcane system, we specially apply for the establishment of this research institute and hope that the committee will approve it..."

Fernando read out Lucien's application report word for word. Faced with this obviously "irregular" thing, he did not treat it with the rigor of arcane and magic research, and showed a humorous smile on his face: "Need

A large and complete high-end laboratory? Need so many rare materials? Need a large amount of arcane point subsidies? Young people, this is not the way to cheat arcane research funds. This kind of high-sounding, large and empty application, the Magic Research Committee

It is definitely impossible to approve it, and you are very ambitious and seem to intend to maintain the 'Atomic Research Institute' for a long time?"

"Actually, if you just apply for a little support and have a specific research project, the Magic Research Committee might approve it for my sake."

Lucien organized his long-thought-out speech: "Teacher, I think the current parliament has a certain degree of short-sightedness in the approval of arcane research projects. The development of arcana is changing with each passing day, and many new fields have emerged. They are broad and vague.

It is difficult to propose specific research directions from the beginning, but we cannot give up research on them, nor can we only rely on the private research of high-level arcanists. We need the council to provide resources to allow more arcanists to invest.

these areas."

"The Atomic Research Institute is a useful attempt. After the periodic laws of elements were discovered, I believe more and more arcane masters have realized that there is still a long way to go in the study of atoms."

When speaking, Lucien's expression was serious and compassionate.

"Why do I feel like participating in the House of Nobles and the Municipal Council..." Fernando chuckled, exposing Lucien's "intentions", and then said with a smile on his face: "Lucien, tell me about your understanding of atoms.

Well, if you want me to support you, you must at least show that you are worthy of support."

Sure enough, acting can't deceive such an old monster. He pointed out the core of the problem directly. It seemed that he had to throw out some useful information. Lucien's thoughts changed quickly and he considered the words: "Teacher, since I discovered that there are elements between elements.

After discovering the periodic law, I was thinking about the meaning behind the law, but I couldn't find a breakthrough direction. Then by chance, I suddenly thought, why do atoms of different elements show different properties?"

Fernando smiled and listened quietly without interrupting.

Lucien continued: "As the most basic component of matter, according to simple philosophical viewpoints and arcane theoretical understanding, atoms should be very similar and very simple, with at most a few aspects of different properties, and then

Different compositional forms constitute a variety of colorful substances. But now, atoms have shown numerous alchemical and force field properties, which violates the view that the basic composition should be simple and limited in type."

"So, if we want to continue our research, should we temporarily abandon the deep-rooted knowledge brought to us by "Atomic Theory"?"

"Atoms may not be the most basic component of matter!" (To be continued...)
