Early in the morning, on an island near the main island of the rainbow tower.
There is a huge lake in the middle of the island. The rail steam train runs around the whole island. On one side of the lake, there is a simple three story building.
This is the headquarters of the mercury balance. On the other side of the building, there is a villa area with a view of the lake. This is where the senior mages and permanent staff of the mercury balance live.
Frederick Demetri, who is on vacation, has just sent off his daughter, a lovely girl who is a freshman of hongzhita high level Magic Academy.
When the final exam arrived, the little girl was quite nervous. Maybe her father was a famous high-level mage of the ninth Ring Road, which made her even more stressed. She got on the train around the island and went to the school on the main island, hoping to get a good result today.
Dmitri sighed. His daughter Misha was obviously not good at magic. Although she had her own blood, she mastered magic faster than her peers. It was relatively easy for her to get into the rainbow tower high-level Magic Academy. But it was very difficult to move forward with the goal of high-level mages.
Demetri has lived for more than 200 years, and he is not young among the high-level mages. But for the middle level and low-level mages, 200 years may be the history of a family. If Misha can't enter the middle level, maybe many years later, Demetri will face the scene of attending his daughter's funeral.
Shaking his head, he still didn't think about these things. When he returned to the room, he found his wife had woken up.
"Olivia, why did you wake up so early?"
He opened the refrigerator, which was kept at a constant low temperature by the temperature regulating method, took out a bottle of milk and heated it in the pan. On the other side, he used the master's hand to control the pan to cook bacon and fried eggs.
"Has my daughter been sent to school?"
Hermia, Dmitry's wife, looks charming. Her magic rank is three links. She is only a low-level mage. As for the process of their meeting, they are legendary. Now, for 20 years, they have been model couples in the mage world.
"Well, sit down. Breakfast will be ready soon."
After a few minutes, Dmitri controlled the pan, put bacon with fried eggs on his wife's plate, and poured a cup of warm milk.
"Thank you, dear."
Olivia has mild hypoglycemia and often feels sleepy in the morning. Therefore, Dmitri has developed the habit of getting up early and getting everything ready for his wife and daughter.
Anyway, for high-level mages, sleep is not necessary. There is no essential difference between getting up early and getting up late.
"Misha seems to be very worried about the exam, hoping that she can overcome her psychological barriers."
Olivia took a sip of the hot milk. The slightly sweet milk went down her throat and into her stomach, which made her feel a little more energetic.
"Anyway, it's something she needs to go through."
Dmitry said, he also took the coffee, at the same time, the hand of the mage took the newspaper just from the mailbox at the door and opened it.
"Well, the temperature is really high recently. It seems that the mages need artificial rainfall again."
Seeing the report about the weather, Dmitri sighed and turned to the next page.
At this time, he seemed to have a premonition to look at the side of the window, only to see a small black dot is slowly flying towards this side, it is an owl, with black and white patterns, is his old man.
The owl was flying towards the room so quietly that it was about to fly directly into the room.
Bang -
it just hit the glass, its wings spread, and its whole body fitted on the window, which made it look very embarrassed.
Dmitri grabs a handful of cereal and comes to the window. He raises the window, sprinkles it in a bowl and hands it to the owl.
"Next time you have to fly slowly."
In this way, Dmitri picked up the package that fell on the windowsill, opened it and found it was a paper and a letter.
It's from Eagles field.
Dmitri opened the letter first, and the content was very brief. This is Lena Ian Gray's latest paper submitted to the High Council. Field has read it. He thinks the content of this paper is very controversial, so he has to disturb Dmitri, who is still on vacation.
"This paper discusses the speed of light. It's so weird that I think all these years of magic research seems to be based on a wrong benchmark... Is it really that serious?"
Demetriton became serious. There was an irreconcilable contradiction between the speed of light calculated by the Newington Holland equations and the classical motion system. Since the publication of Mr. Alberton's space-time paper, this contradiction has reached its peak, and there was a great confrontation between the wave theory of light and the particle theory of light in the past.
However, in the past, neither waves nor particles would affect most of the basic laws, but now, the speed of light challenges the most fundamental things of all mages."What's the matter, my dear, with work?"
Olivia was silent when she saw Dmitry reading the letter, so she asked.
"It's a letter from eagles. He's showing me this paper, um, the latest paper by Lena Ian gray."
Dmitri waved a pile of parchments in his hand.
"He's got something new?"
Olivia naturally knows that Lena, a new star who often appears in her husband's mouth, even Dmitry once said that Lena may be able to promote the real second Magic Revolution and completely separate ancient magic from modern magic. Therefore, Olivia is naturally surprised to hear that he has a new article.
"To be exact, his paper seems to solve a problem that puzzles the mages. I have to read the paper first... Er, I can read it in the afternoon."
Dmitri suddenly realized that he was on vacation. It was a rare time to be with his family. He shouldn't talk about work.
"It doesn't matter. Go ahead."
However, Olivia gave a little smile, indicating that Dmitri didn't have to think too much about himself.
"If I don't show you, I'm afraid you'll be fidgeting all day."
"Ha ha, how could this happen..."
Dmitry laughed twice, looked at his wife, and finally opened the paper, spread it out and walked to the living room.
The title of the paper is quite meaningful: "on the electrodynamics of moving bodies". It seems that the problem of light speed is discussed from the theory of electromagnetic field. DEMITRI opened his paper and soon immersed himself in it.
And his wife, Olivia, with a little smile, stood up silently to clean up the dishes.
