Chapter 98 The first review comment written by Lucien
It's clearing up after the snow, and the warm sunshine shines on your body, bringing you a warm feeling.
Stamping and staring, the heavy footsteps of the steel golem came from the corridor. He pushed open the door, his eyes flashed red, and his voice was as cold as metal: "Master, I have obtained six similar papers previously submitted by the author of the paper, as well as the review
The evaluation opinions of the committee members.”
This is one of the benefits of being a member of the Arcane Review Committee. You can access papers and evaluation results without using arcane points. Otherwise, it would be ridiculous for a member to review a paper and have to spend arcane points to exchange for similar papers for comparison.
, not the attitude of arcane research.
Taking the thick stack of papers, Lucien waved the steel golem to guard the door. Looking through it himself, it was obvious that the author Levsky had deepened and improved his research on "anti-tower geometry".
This recent paper has constructed a brand new geometric system, based on the five axioms of tower geometry, four postulates and the premise that "through a point outside the straight line, at least two straight lines can be drawn parallel to the known straight line"
A new geometric system based on
"I didn't expect that someone had independently proven and derived Loche geometry..." Lucien said to himself.
This geometric system is the first non-Euclidean geometric system that appeared on the earth. It was proposed by Lobachevsky. He made the assumption of "at least two parallel lines" and deduced the new geometric system.
At that time, he was still a widely recognized young mathematician. However, after he proposed this research result, he was greeted with a lifetime of indifference, contempt, slander, and abuse. He was ignored or criticized by authoritative mathematicians.
Even the "King of Mathematics" Gauss remained silent on the basis of his agreement with Roche's geometry, fearing to face the dissatisfaction and opposition of the entire academic community.
In such a desolate situation, Lobachevsky did not give up and worked hard for the survival and development of his new geometric ideas. He also completed a geometric work a year before his death. Unfortunately, he did not wait until his death.
He came to Shuguang and died in depression, pain, and blindness. It was not until more than ten years after his death that he received the attention and research of the academic community because other mathematicians proved the realization of Roche geometry on special curved surfaces, and won belated recognition.
Highly praised.
Such research seems to have little significance for the current development of arcana, nor can it improve the strength of magic. But in fact, when arcana and magic are further explored and entered into the fields of time, space, universe and other fields, current mathematical tools will face
Dilemma, unable to accurately describe and help solve practical problems. At this time, mathematical development is needed to provide new tools.
For example, on the earth, another non-Euclidean geometric system "Riemannian geometry" based on the premise that "no straight line passes through a point outside the straight line and is parallel to a known straight line" is the mathematical basis for the great general theory of relativity to explain space-time problems.
Roche's geometry has been applied in human research on the universe.
If tower geometry (Euclidean geometry) is the intuitive understanding of the world through human experience, then the two non-Euclidean geometric systems are close to the objective reality - in fact, the three geometric systems are only different in curvature.
Lucien sighed, compared to the magical world where cognitive improvement can improve the level of strength. The field of mathematics, which is currently used purely as a tool, is more harsh and conservative on rebellious and subversive theories, just like the evaluation they give
The result is the same:
"A ridiculous reasoning. Ridiculous results were obtained. I think the author should look up out of the window and look at the real world... In my opinion, the paper cannot pass the review."
"...This is a paper full of errors, worthless and cannot pass the review."
"...I think the best way to deal with this kind of whimsical babble that no one can understand is to throw it into the fireplace. This will play its only role. It is obvious that it will not pass the review."
…
While reading, Lucien shook his head. Although he had also encountered situations where the paper was given a lower evaluation, the evaluation standards and the tone of the words were all within common sense. It was because he did not understand the paper or could not verify it.
The "products" of the paper are not like the review results of these papers. They either directly attack and slander, or distort the content of the paper to make accusations. They do not discuss the matter directly. They only start from the premise postulates, deductive reasoning and logical contradictions of the paper itself, which is seriously blasphemous.
responsibilities of the audit committee.
After asking for leave late from Fernando, Lucien carefully read Levsky's new paper from cover to cover and conducted deductive reasoning on his own. Then he picked up a quill and wrote his first evaluation result as a review committee member.
"Bold assumptions, rigorous deductions..."

In the evening, Alinge is dyed with a layer of afterglow against the backdrop of the setting sun and sunset, which is exceptionally beautiful.
In a towering magic tower, an old man with white eyebrows wearing a special gray pointed hat from the "Tower" was frowning and calculating a mathematical problem. Several exquisite and complex magic arrays that occupied most of the desk lit up from time to time to assist him in his calculations.
Operation.
Boom, boom, boom, at this moment, his assistant knocked on the study door.
The old man, who looked to be sixty or seventy years old and had the emblem of an eighth-level arcanist and a seven-ring magician hanging on his chest, was interrupted from thinking and said grumpily: "Come in."
His assistant is a beautiful and serious young lady, wearing a conservative Holm style dress, holding a stack of documents: "Teacher, your secret magic puppet has sent over the papers received today, please distribute them."
The old man rubbed his brows and said, "Show me." If it's not important or difficult, let the students help review it.
The beautiful, indifferent and expressionless young lady moved forward at a moderate pace and placed several papers in front of the old man.
After getting the paper, the old man looked through the topics first. Suddenly, he slammed the table hard and made a banging sound: "Levsky submitted his imagination again. Are all the deacons in the Magician Management Department sleepwalking?"
?He was allowed to submit it. Is the time of our review committee members not valuable? I have to propose to the committee to prohibit this paper from being submitted again!"
"Samantha, please change it according to my previous review results and throw it back!"
…………
At the same time, a villa in the city of Allinge was said to have the most complete variety of flowers in the world.
A graceful and beautiful lady with her hair pulled up threw the paper in her hand to the ground: "Levsky still doesn't give up? He is simply wasting his talent and life! How can one submit such a paper that is wrong at first sight?
the value of?"
After thinking about it, she picked up the paper, pulled out a beautiful quill pen with a special shape, and began to write the review results. She brushed it a few times. She finished it in less than two minutes.
Then he angrily ordered the servant: "Send it back to the review committee."
Let the stubborn, crazy and disgusting Levsky suffer for three more days with hope!
…………
After returning the review results to the committee, Lucien smiled and took out a pen and paper and began to write the paper.
Three days later in the morning, as soon as Lucien stepped into his teacher Fernando's study, he saw Douglas, the kind and kind Speaker of the Magic Council, wearing a black evening gown.
"Good morning, Mr. Speaker." Lucien called in confusion.
Douglas smiled and said: "I was surprised to see me. I came to your teacher to discuss the two theories recently proposed in "Arcana" and "Magic", which are the two theories that refute my experiments."
"At times like this, I really like to communicate face-to-face with Fernando. Listening to him roar these theories makes me feel very good."
Lucien almost couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear. The Speaker also has such a humorous side.
Fernando looked ugly and shook his head: "These worthless papers can also be published in "Arcana" and "Magic". Although their style and level have never been high, they cannot be reduced to this level. What about charged particles?"
The movement of the composed matter relative to the ether will shorten, so there will be a deviation in the measurement. Can he use experiments to confirm this deviation?"
"In comparison, Brooke's paper that directly questions your celestial body movement system is more powerful. After all, the planet is still in your dream."
Douglas showed no sign of anger and smiled and said to Lucien: "About my experiments and these controversies and questions, Lucien. What do you think?"
Why do people ask this question every day? Lucien felt a little helpless, and then he said something he had planned for a long time: "Sir, Speaker, I have a small opinion. The problem of the planet is the core of your theory, and it is also the weakest point.
If you can't find a planet, your theoretical system lacks strong support."
"Do you have a way to find the planet?" Fernando hit his student unceremoniously.
Lucien's expression became serious. He said loudly and forcefully: "Since we can't find a planet, why not build one ourselves?"
"Why don't we build a small planet that orbits the world based on the calculated orbit?"
"If it can operate and be observed, it will be a strong confirmation of the gravitational system!"
This is a proposal that Lucien has been brewing for a long time after he saw Douglas’s letter!
The study suddenly became quiet, with only the sound of wind blowing paper.
…………
In the Magician Management Department, Levsky, wearing an old magic robe, knocked on the door of Eric's office expectantly and anxiously.
"You're here so early?" Eric was not surprised by Levsky's arrival and called stiffly.
Levsky nodded, his face turned pale by the cold wind: "Yesterday was the third day. The review results must have come back, and they should be issued today."
Not long after Eric arrived, he tidied his desk and said, "At about 9:15, the first batch of paper review results will be sent. Please wait a moment."
"Yeah." Levsky sat down for a few minutes, but couldn't stand up calmly. He was pacing back and forth, restless. If he hadn't considered that this was the magician's management department, he would have wanted to take out a low-quality cigarette and smoke one.
Time passed by minute by second, and suddenly, the iron cage lit up with a milky white light.
"Come back?" Levsky asked impatiently and unable to conceal his fear.
Eric picked up a stack of papers inside and looked through them. He suddenly raised his head and said in surprise: "No? There is no paper of yours?"
"Why?" Levsky was confused.
…………
The fifteenth floor of the Magician Management Department, the arcane review committee hall.
Alchemy Life took the three review results and fell into a conflict.
