Chapter 52

As time went by, there was silence in the conference room. Fleming's forehead was sweating. He had already read this paper, but he didn't dare to read it too carefully. That's why Fleming decided that this kind of paper can only be reviewed by knowledgeable senior jurists, otherwise it would cause an academic disaster.

The students of the high-level mage are sitting in a state of anxiety. They see their teacher reading the paper with extremely attentive eyes. There seems to be a slight water wave in the air, which is the magic buzz.

Cornwall was the first to read it, because he was the creator of electrolysis, so he quickly understood a lot about electrolysis in the paper. When he saw Lena electrifying in ordinary water and finally collecting two kinds of gas, the seven ring mage's hand trembled.

Cornwall was filled with mixed feelings when he saw his paper mentioned in the quotation and thanks section at the end of the paper.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I think I need a laboratory."

He said, trying his best to restrain his agitation.

"We need a lab, I think."

Lanchester later said that he had finished reading this paper. Although it seems so plain, the legendary mage's heart has been turbulent.

Fleming did not dare to speak. He watched several high-level mages lay down their papers one after another, and his face was dignified. He knew that the possible consequences of this paper were not just the cognitive collapse of one or two mages.

In silence, they came to a laboratory on the third floor, which is much more advanced than the laboratory of crescent college, with all kinds of advanced equipment. However, these high-level mages focused on a sink.

"Cornwall, you are most familiar with electrolysis. You operate the experiment."

Frederick looks at Cornwall.

"Well, all right."

Knowing that the boss of the mercury balance was refusing, Cornwall could not object to it, and could only operate the experimental tools.

The method of electrolysis is very simple, it is not difficult for these high-level mages.

But the phenomenon is amazing.

Bubbles appeared at both ends of the electrode and filled the inverted test tube filled with water to drain the running water. They verified the gas in the two test tubes, and the results, including the properties and element mass, were almost the same as those in the paper!

What does that mean?

This means that water can be decomposed and the basic elements will no longer be "basic"!

Cornwall looked at the two tubes and sighed.

He invented electrolysis and was the first mage to find new elements through electrolysis. However, he ignored the most common substance, water. According to the old concept, he thought that water was the basic element and could not be decomposed, so he missed this discovery.

He once broke the old ways, but he also missed this great discovery because he was conservative.

"Magic is a process of constantly bringing forth new ideas. It is inevitable that old theories will be replaced by new ones. You must have thought about this experimental phenomenon."

Lanchester said, his voice is calm and his mind is full of thoughts. It seems that there is a volcano brewing under the ground, which may erupt at any time.

"This paper also makes a bold assumption on the existing combustion theory. Combustion is not a process of fire element transfer, but a process of alchemy reaction between objects and objects with similar properties of oakles. In this process, objects and oakles form oakles compounds. It's really an interesting idea."

Madame Maria smiles. It can be inferred from the combustion process of Hydra and oakles that the element of fire does not exist in the combustion process, and this basic element probably does not exist.

"What about negative mass, Fleming? I remember that's the content of your paper."

Eagles always disagrees with the negative mass hypothesis of Fleming and others. The paper experiment at the moment is a powerful falsification of negative mass, so he looks at Fleming in the corner of the laboratory.

"Excuse me for my ignorance, sir..."

Fleming was speechless. At least from the combustion reaction between Hydra and oakles, there was no room for the existence of fire element. There must be something wrong with his theory, but Fleming could not accept Lena's theory at the moment, so he could only keep silent.

"Although this paragraph is not rigorous, it really reflects the pursuit of mages."

Robert pointed to the argument in the paper that refutes the theory that fire has negative mass.

It says: I believe that magic theory should be concise and elegant. The closer it is to truth, the simpler the expression of formula will be. For example, 1 and 0 represent all things in the world, and theories that need to be explained by adding hypotheses should undoubtedly be flawed or even wrong. We should cut those meaningless hypotheses like a blade through the wheat field If it is not necessary, hypothesis should not be added.

This is recognized by you. In the three hundred years of the development of modern magic, many theories have changed from complicated to simple, which makes them believe that the key to truth should be simple and elegant."According to this inference, if we can find elements with similar properties to oakles, can we classify them into one category?"

Lanchester has been studying the law of elements recently, but there is only one framework, and he has not grasped the actual law. However, the summary of combustion reaction in this paper has inspired him: can we arrange the law of elements through the role of combustion reaction?

Not only in Lanchester's heart, but also in the minds of every high-level mage and every student, countless ideas are constantly emerging. They are at the forefront of the academic circle, and they do not adhere to the old theory. In fact, many of them think that there are many loopholes in the theory of fire element combustion, and they are looking for a more accurate model to describe the process of combustion Basic phenomenon.

After Lehner's paper, they have countless conjectures that need to be verified, and they don't even want to stay here for a second.

"Frederick, man, I think the next time we meet may be at the annual meeting."

Lanchester jokingly said that, in fact, his mage tower is next to Frederick's mage tower, and they can hardly see each other. The meaning of Lanchester's words at this time means that he may have to bury himself in the laboratory until the beginning of the meeting.

"Ha ha, I haven't had such a state of mind for a long time."

Frederick smiles, then turns and looks at Fleming.

"So Fleming, the wizard apprentice who wrote this paper, I think we should invite him to the mercury balance annual meeting in a week's time, don't you think?"

"Yes, yes."

Fleming was stunned and nodded slightly.
