Throne of Magical Arcana

Magic Council Headquarters, in a study on the thirty-third floor.

Lucien held a letter signed "Oliver Constantine" and said: "...from the fifth ring, every increase in magical power is a process of cognitive world beginning to interact with the soul, and slowly substantive, and To become a legendary magician, the cognitive world must be semi-solidified, forming a field between virtual and real..."

After reading this, Lucien looked up at his teacher in astonishment, but Fernando still had his eyes closed and contemplative, not at all shocked by Oliver's letter revealing some mysteries about the legend, nor did he scold himself for hearing something wrong. The secret to listen to.

Although Lucien's "Book of Astrology and Elements" records the ritual of being promoted to a legend, but because he has not yet reached a high level, he does not have enough soul strength and mental power to read this part, and he is not qualified to use "higher arcane magic". and Magic Library” to check the records in this area, so I don’t know how to advance to the legend, what changes will occur in the body, soul, and spiritual world, and now the great arcanist “Hand of Annihilation” Oliver is as simple as that Speak out like a daily chat.

Of course, his real correspondent is a grand arcanist, and these are not secrets at all.

"Keep reading. Don't you have the ambition and confidence to become a legend?" Fernando said flatly without opening his eyes.

This is the advantage of having a great arcanist as a teacher. He can get in touch with a lot of secret knowledge and lay a solid foundation for future development.

While thinking about it, Lucien continued to read: "Fernando, you also understand that the closer the cognitive world is to the real world, the easier it is to semi-solidify, which can reduce the overall difficulty of being promoted to legend. Considering Florence's Her proficiency and talent in arcane arts may be one of her main obstacles in the future, so I have been conducting research on the semi-solidification of the cognitive world."

"With the deepening of the research, I found that after excluding the different components of the cognitive world based on different arcane theories, in the meditation environment, there is an obvious contradiction between the spatial structure and the real world... Maybe the mathematical basis of our description of space is wrong... we need to start over from the ground up with our math and science parts, and in that regard, I have some opinions..."

Oliver's mathematical ability seems to be inferior to his own arcane level in other fields, and there is no commendable opinion yet. Regarding this, Fernando refuted them one by one without mercy, and then used this letter to test the school and guide his way Sean's mathematical knowledge.

"You are not stupid in mathematical analysis." Fernando said blankly, and then commented with a smile, "Although Oliver is very romantic, he has many lovers, even his own female students. But it was true love for Florence, as in the opera."

Teacher, don't be so rude, okay? Lucien couldn't help but slander. There is always a feeling that Fernando is a double-faced person. When discussing arcane and magic, he is serious and harsh, irritable and eager, like a ball of fire that will strike at any time. The roaring storm makes people tremble, but when it is transferred to other aspects, it becomes old and unscrupulous, humorous and wretched. It doesn't mind the casual attitude of the students at all. No wonder it has the nickname of old pervert.

Seeing that Lucien had no answer, Fernando shook his head and smiled self-consciously: "But if this continues, Florence's grievances will become more and more serious, and there will be conflicts between them one day, maybe when Florent Sha found a little lover to take revenge. Tsk tsk, Oliver's face must be very good-looking, the hand of annihilation, the hand of annihilation, I don't know if it will destroy Florence directly?"

This is simply a gossip old man, Lucien wiped off the cold sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, especially when it came to the irresponsible guess of "whether Oliver will kill Florence himself", Fernando was obviously happy , It really is an old pervert!

"Teacher, this should be impossible. Who dares to touch the wife of a great arcanist." Lucien tried to get Fernando to end his operatic speculation.

Fernando gave Lucien a disdainful look: "That's not necessarily the case. There will always be young people who are crazy and not afraid of death! When I was young, I was much crazier than Oliver. Hey, I'm old now, and I don't have that kind of thought anymore. What? Nothing compares to exploring the mysteries of the world."

Shaking his head again, Fernando ordered, "The next one."

Finally back on track, Lucien quickly entered a state of concentration.

After reading one letter after another, Fernando continued to take Lucien to do thermal radiation experiments, collect more data, and prepare for finding laws and deriving formulas later.

In the study room of the garden villa.

Lucien opened a letter received today, which was sent by Viscount Harrison, a senior illusionist.

"...I saw your paper Evans, and I have to say, I was a little disappointed. You gave up your advantages in the fields of elements and astrology, and blindly intervened in the unfamiliar fields of electromagnetic waves, hormones, and hallucinations. The paper and Isabel It seems that it is not deep enough, and there are many more far-fetched and unprovable things than her."

"Of course, I admire your sharp thinking in arcane arts. You have made pioneering and breakthrough results even in fields that you are not good at. Maybe I should accept that some illusions are the result of the effects of electromagnetic waves and alchemical substances. Already... Several of your experiments are quite wonderful, and the transformation of "charming humans" is especially amazing. Maybe after you have a deep understanding and mastered the connotation of illusion, you can make greater contributions in the field of illusion..."

After that, Harrison chattered about his basic understanding of illusion, wasting more than 20 pages of paper, but also helped Lucien solve some illusion magic problems.

"...The debate about whether Isabella can win the wizard crown is getting more and more intense. The Wizard House has decided to gather us high-ranking magicians to discuss next month. I wonder if her contribution will be recognized. It's a pity that your thesis is still under review. There is no decisive result, otherwise if they decide to compromise, I can propose that you share the laurels with Isabella, making you one of the two most outstanding arcanists in the past century."

"Okay, keep in touch with each other in the future, everyone is a magician who is close to the nobles."

The House of Wizards follows the conservative and rigid style of the ancient magic empire. It waits until the end of the year to review the achievements of the three major factions in the past year. Those who are qualified will be awarded wizard crowns, and those who are not will be given up. Unlike the Holm Crown Award, etc., As long as there is an achievement that is important enough to leave a footprint in the history of magic, it will quickly enter the review and discussion stage, and awards can often be awarded within a short period of time—unless the achievement cannot be proven, it will wait until a few years later when stronger evidence appears issued when.

But this time, the House of Wizards hastily summoned high-ranking magicians for a discussion next month only a dozen days after the thesis came out, which obviously violated its own style of doing things, and it seemed that it was under a lot of pressure.

Putting down the letter, Lucien took out the white paper and laid it out, picked up the quill, dipped it in ink, and prepared to write the letter.

Of course, the first letter was sent to a distant princess, but after his mood changed, Lucien suddenly didn't know how to start writing, feeling a little expectant and uneasy.

"You can't be too blunt, you have to slowly cultivate the atmosphere, find out Natasha's thoughts, and you can't talk about arcane and magic research issues, she can't understand at all, she must find it boring, and she will lose communication after a long time It's fun, and it's easy to expose some arcane secrets..." Lucien calmly analyzed various issues, and he must not be like the boys in the jokes in his previous life, discussing extremely complicated and boring discussions with girls in correspondence professional issues.

"But my main life is arcane and magic research, don't talk about this, what should I write?" Lucien flicked his fingers and fell into a difficult problem, but he quickly thought of a way, "Let's not talk about arcane and magic research However, you can write about the interesting people and interesting things you met in your research. This is life. In addition, there are discussions on music, descriptions of various aspects of the Kingdom of Holm, and Prince Patrick and the old man. News from the King."

After clarifying his thoughts, Lucien began to write:

"...The one who became my teacher was Lord Fernando, the Master of Storms. He is a very contradictory person. When he encounters arcane and magic problems, he is very irritable, strict, and very demanding. At the same time, his temper becomes very bad. Even if I This quiet and prudent person has also been roared several times, he really has a terrifying feeling of a storm, but in other places, he seems very casual, and his humor has no limit..."

In order not to leave any excuses, Lucien didn't use the adjective obscene.

"When reading letters from legendary magicians, you can vaguely see their personalities from their words and sentence habits. For example, your elder, Her Excellency Hathaway, is a lady who is not good at expressing herself and is insensitive to words. In the discussion of arcane and magic, I can feel her firm and sharp side through those plain sentences..."

"Your Excellency Douglas seems to be a very generous old man, who basically doesn't lose his temper. The only problem is that there are a lot of 'why'...Your Excellency Brooke is very particular about his words, very rigorous, and he describes things quite well. It can be seen that he has a certain degree of literature. At the same time, he is a very stubborn old-fashioned gentleman who doesn't like fancy things..."

"...When discussing matters other than arcane and magic, Lord Oliver speaks passionately, poetically, and has excellent dramatic talent. Just through his letters, he can imagine a handsome, handsome, and charming mature man. , It's a pity that he is too flirtatious, indulges his lust, and has no resistance to female sex..."

"...Your Excellency Helen Paris uses concise words, and never discusses matters other than arcane arts and magic. She is like a cold machine, but after listening to the teacher, after getting familiar with her, she is actually a lively and talkative lady, but I put all my energy into exploring the essence of the world, even if I write a letter, I don’t bother to talk about other things..."

"His Excellency Vicente Miranda, Lord of the Souls, has very little correspondence with the teacher. From the only two letters, we can only see the unkempt side of his life, because the back of the letter paper of these two letters is stained with a lot of corpse oil. Wrinkled as if it had just been dug out of a cemetery...it's such a nasty thing...'

...

After writing the letter to Natasha, Lucien immediately felt relieved, and wrote letters to K, Rock, Larry, Timothy, Ulysses and other friends of different acquaintances, informing them that he had returned , At the same time, he also wrote a reply letter to Viscount Harrison, expounding some superficial content in dream analysis and behavioral psychology.

…………

A few days later, Lucien, who had been visited and replied to by friends one after another, came to Fernando's study according to the fixed time.

"Good morning, teacher." Lucien greeted politely.

Fernando snarled a little: "No, I'm not good at all! Why do I want to do this thermal radiation experiment, I'd rather not have tried anything!"

Lucien's heart tightened, is the data enough? In the past few days, I have entered the critical stage of analyzing the magic of the five rings, and I haven't been able to devote myself to sorting out the data.

After the third update, ask for a monthly ticket~
