Although Natasha didn't quite understand why Lucien was suddenly so serious, his views on the law of cause and effect and his firm attitude still made the inexplicable discomfort in her heart melt away like ice and snow meeting the sun. Everything was doomed.
Well, a world that cannot be changed at all is the most hopeless and lifeless world.
Feeling the warmth of being held and listening to the solemn and solemn voice, Natasha, who has a cheerful and optimistic personality, quickly returned to her true colors and no longer dwelled on this topic. She smiled and said: "Are you going to compose an opera for me?"
"How do you know?" Lucien asked in surprise.
Natasha chuckled and said: "I have very sharp eyes. When I was in your study in the afternoon, I spotted a manuscript on the bookshelf, "Valkyrie". I think it was given to me."
She was not modest at all about the title "Valkyrie" and took it for granted that it should be her.
Lucien sighed softly: "I originally planned to invite the opera troupe to perform on my birthday to commemorate the first anniversary of our confession to each other. But during this year, for Salde's affairs, for the Magic Council and our future,
I have never had any extra time to write, and the script is more difficult than I imagined, especially the music. Only one-third of it is completed today."
Although this was based on works on Earth, it was basically a completely new long-form creation, which caused Lucien to encounter many difficulties.
Natasha smiled unconcernedly and said: "It doesn't matter, we can wait until next year, the year after tomorrow, and many, many years. Speaking of opera, I plan to sponsor the Rentat Musicians Association, encourage the development of music, and reshape a music city
.”
She is a person who truly loves music. Since she cannot return to Aalto for the time being, let Lentat become a holy place for music.
"If I have free time, I will guide the musicians of Rentat." At this time, Lucien had the confidence to say this. Although the creation of "Valkyrie" this time was difficult, it allowed him to truly apply the music he had learned.
With a comprehensive knowledge, he is no longer an ordinary musician who can only write piano pieces and arrange some movements. He is almost at the level of Teacher Victor.
Such rapid progress is due to the learning of a lot of advanced music knowledge in the soul library, as well as to the improvement of thinking speed brought about by my own efforts and the strengthening of my soul.
On the boulevard at night, the cool breeze was refreshing. Natasha took a deep breath and said humorously: "Then first, on behalf of the musicians of the Holm Kingdom, I would like to thank you, Master. If you don't mind, I would like to let your Uncle Joel enter the association."
, conveying Aalto’s music trends and latest developments here.”
Relying on the smuggled "Music Review" and "Symphony Herald" can obviously only show the top things and cannot allow musicians to learn the real basics.
"Of course I don't mind, as long as Uncle Joel is willing." In the past few years of correspondence, Lucien learned from Natasha that after the initial excitement of aristocratic life, Joel restarted the study of music, very hard.
·Not at all like a middle-aged man.
Natasha glanced at Lucien, her silver-purple eyes concealing a smile: "I brought up this topic just to ask you, when are you going to meet your Uncle Joel and the others? The church has been evacuated, there should be nothing else
It's dangerous. The intelligence officers secretly protecting them also reported that under the influence of the mysterious voice and the enjoyment provided by the convenient alchemical items around them, their views on magicians and clergy have changed significantly, and there should be no extreme changes.
"Reaction: Moreover, they probably still miss you in their hearts. In order to know your news, they often stay up late and listen to the 'World Reality' channel that they don't understand at all."
Listening to Natasha's simple description, Lucien's heart was suddenly filled with emotion and warmth. He had only been in this world for more than eight years, but it felt like he had lived a lifetime and experienced countless things, so he said in a low voice: "I have been in this world for just over eight years. Just go."
"Be happy, you should be happy about this kind of thing." Natasha playfully made an encouraging gesture and changed the subject, "Mr. Great Musician, have you come up with any revolutionary musical ideas in the past few years? You have always been a It’s really unaccustomed to a work that is known for being subversive and has not had any innovation or change for several years.”
Lucien looked at her with a smile: "Why not? I connected music creation with mathematics."
"Eh? Music creation and mathematics? How can these be related?" Natasha said in surprise. Music is something full of free and unrestrained thoughts, while mathematics is the most rigorous and restrictive field. How can they be put together? And It’s not a divisive or conceptual thing like the Law of Equals, it’s a creation!
Lucien chuckled and said: "So it is subversive. It abandons various traditional structural factors, such as theme, musical logic, musical motivation, phrases, sections, etc., and integrates substantive elements such as rhythm, dynamics, and note density. , timbre, etc. as parameters, use mathematical permutation and combination to form a sequence, and then create according to such regulations."
"This seems too cold... but it's very interesting. I wonder how it will work?" Natasha knew that this would not be mainstream, and she had the courage to try it. Plus Lucien's status in her mind, she naturally had no objections.
After speaking, she sighed again: "This is really the thinking of an arcanist!"
"Go back and let you enjoy some short works." This is a sequence of music works when Lucien changes his mind and relaxes his brain. It can also be used in electronic music in the future.
"Okay, if it sounds good, you can stay up tonight!" Natasha said enthusiastically.
Lucien deliberately distorted her meaning and joked: "Staying up late? What do you seem to be avoiding?"
"No way? Am I the one escaping!"
The next day, after seeing Natasha off, Lucien returned to the Atomic Research Institute briskly. Many experiments needed to be verified.
"Lucien, you look good!" Lazar looked like he understood, holding a journal in his hand.
""Arcana" was released in advance?" Lucien looked at the cover and saw that it looked very similar. However, during the meeting of the Supreme Council, they only requested that the cover of the journal publish the news that he had become a Grand Arcanist, and did not require them to be released so far in advance.
Heidi was still worried about the many tasks yesterday, and said sadly: "Teacher, this is a special issue of "Arcana". Because the discovery of neutrons confirmed the new alchemy, they wanted to celebrate this theoretical system that changed the era. , specially made this special issue, which contains more than one year’s papers, including the confirmation of various predictions of new alchemy and some related experiments.”
"...... There are also some questions about the imperfections of the new alchemy." Annick said after a moment of silence.
Splinter was a little angry: "The teacher has long said that New Alchemy is just a framework, and many problems have not yet been solved. Why do they still collect the problems in the special issue? Why can't they wait until the regular issue is released next month? I always feel like I am questioning your new alchemy, teacher."
"What's the point? Any theory is perfected and solidified by conservative questioning. If there is no questioning, I will feel uneasy. Besides, there are indeed many problems that the new alchemy cannot solve, such as the inability to accurately describe the atomic structure with multiple electrons.
, for example, it can only predict the frequency of the spectral line, but cannot do anything about its intensity, width, etc." Lucien understands the limitations of the current model of New Alchemy, and his mentality is very authentic.
Katrina nodded: "Teacher, these questions you mentioned are in the journal."
Lucien reached out to take "Arcane" and found that the bright silver lines on the dark black cover formed several rows of text. The top was two words: "Arcane", and the next three rows were "July 824, to celebrate the new year."
This publication is specially issued for the establishment of Alchemy and congratulations to Lord Lucien Evans for receiving the title of Grand Arcanist."
On the title page is the supplementary opinion of the paper written by Douglas: "There is no doubt that the new alchemy has achieved a brilliant victory, greatly changed our era, and will always be remembered by arcanists. I recommend a supplementary award of 10,000 arcane points.
Five thousand, five hundred thousand arcane points."
Behind him are the opinions of the two original review committee members. Laventi and Prado co-wrote a sentence: "Now, we can fully add the praise in the previous review opinions to His Excellency Lucien Evans.
.”
Finally, there are words written by Drummond, the editor-in-chief of "Arcana" journal, on behalf of the entire journal: "Since this period of time, the new alchemy has been like an unstoppable flood that has swept through the entire Magic Council, every phenomenon discovered, every
The experimental results are very consistent with its predictions."
"It has become the highest code in the fields of elements and alchemy. It is the key to the mystery that opens the door to creation, making alchemy no longer a delusion without theoretical guidance. So I seem to have seen a golden age. This is not only the ability to truly create gold, but also create
It is an age of material things, but also an age where arcana and magic are flourishing, changing rapidly, and talents are emerging.”
"Half a million arcane points... That's really good." Lucien praised. The arcane points were of no use to him, but the arcane points could be exchanged for legendary magic and legendary level rituals (one hundred
Ten thousand arcane points and one legendary magic) This is Jintale's irreplaceable advantage.
In the formal content, the first half contains papers that have been published before, such as Yurisian’s discovery and explanation of the phenomenon of spectral line splitting under strong magnetic fields, etc., while the second half focuses on the doubts about new alchemy that have not been taken seriously before.
Including the problem of outer electron arrangement raised by Fernando, the problem of imposing quantized energy levels and orbits raised by Hathaway, the problem raised by Kraus that can only explain one electronic structure...almost all elements and alchemy
Leaders in the field, after expressing their value and support for the new alchemy, cautiously raised various questions.
Looking at the many problems, Lucien smiled and looked at Splinter, who was still a little aggrieved, and said: "What's the use of being angry? That's what you should do to put forward your own ideas to solve these problems. I hope you all really start."
The study of arcana begins with answering these questions. It doesn’t matter if you are wrong. What I am afraid of is that you don’t have the courage to join the discussion. You are active and unrestrained in thinking, and you may really be able to provide us with ideas that we have never thought of to solve the problem.”
"Yes, teacher!" After hearing the teacher's encouragement, Splinter was the first to answer, his unruly eyes full of fighting spirit.
Annick, Heidi and others also became excited and joined the discussions and arguments about the new alchemy among the great arcanists, legendary magicians, and high-level arcanists. It was exciting just thinking about it.
In the evening, Lucien appeared in the Rentat aristocratic district, looked at John's brightly lit villa, took a deep breath, and strode outside the door.
