Greetings, Mister Principal - Chapter 125

After Reiner closed the diary, he let out a sigh. He didn’t expect Fina’s father to have such a secret.

He hesitated a little, wondering if he should tell Fina these things.

Reiner can understand Fina’s father’s thinking a little bit. He didn’t want Fina to be treated differently by other kids. He wanted her to grow up like an ordinary child, but to be honest, the town of Sur was not a suitable place.

Fina persevered, and eventually became a calm mage apprentice, but perhaps another person would lose their mind and even begin to retaliate against the society after growing up in such an environment.

Shaking his head, Reiner glanced at the rest of the diary. They were basically notes about the experiment. There were very few diaries about Fina’s father’s own life. Only occasionally, Fina’s letters would occupy a lot of space in the diary.

Reiner read the contents of the experimental notes carefully, but the more he looked at it, the more shocking he became.

During the ten years when magic resources were not available, Fina’s father made a mathematical derivation of the relationship between the magnetic field and the electric field, and he almost succeeded!

Fina’s father summed up four formulas, which corresponded to the four equations summed up by His Excellency Surrey Newington and Clark Holland, but it was a pity that he could only calculate on paper. Moreover, because he could not obtain the latest academic studies in time, and some phenomena and conclusions still remained on the mistakes made more than ten years ago, so the four formulas had varying degrees of flaws.

Reiner guessed that Fina’s father probably did not receive any feedback from the world.

But the form of these four formulas was very close to the Newington-Holland equation, and it was discovered seven years earlier than the two of them! (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

Those two high-level mages used the most sophisticated instruments and the most powerful calculation method to obtain the equations. But Fina’s father discovered the equations seven years earlier than them by relying only on simple pen calculations. This is incredible!

Recalling the contents of the diary, Reiner was surprised. Could it be that the Clark that often appeared in the diary was Clark Holland?

Fina’s father and the seventh-ring high-level mage Clark Holland were once classmates? And judging from the diary, his performance back in the academy was as good as that of His Excellency Holland?

Clark Holland was exceptionally talented. This was a well-known fact. After graduating from the Rainbow Tower Advanced Magic Academy, he was favored by high-level mages and was able to enter the Newington Institute to work. For the next few years, his level was constantly increased at almost one level per year. And he was now a seventh-ring high-level mage.

And if Fina’s father, who was as talented as His Excellency Holland, had not been forced to abandon the study for these reasons, his achievements today would have probably been equal to that of His Excellency Holland, or at least he would’ve been able to become a middle-level mage.

But now this man who once dreamed to be a high-level mage and who chose to live in the mountains and forests for his daughter became a pile of ashes in the flames.

Reiner couldn’t help but sigh again.

On the earth, he himself originally had the hope of further studies, but because of his father’s serious illness, he had to choose to work as a high school teacher in a remote hometown. Now Fina’s father’s experience reminded him of himself.

Thinking of this, Reiner made a decision. He couldn’t let Fina’s father be buried in this ignorant and backward town. At least, he needed to let the world know that there was once a mage who took a solid step towards the distant and unknown world at the foot of this desolate and lonely mountain.

Reiner continued to read and tried to find more research materials that Fina’s father had conducted. He found that since Fina left here to study at Luna Nova Magical Academy, Fina’s father began to conduct some basic experiments, trying to find a cure for the strange disease that Fina used to have.

Based on his four flawed equations, he designed magic and experimented with all kinds of substances that he could come into contact with.

Most electromagnetic-related magic required a level 5 or higher level of magic. Because Fina’s father had no plans to continue learning, his level of magic only stayed at the second ring, but he had rich mathematical knowledge about the structure of magic circles. Relying on his own little attempts, he succeeded in creating an electromagnetic array that was driven by standard magic stones and could be used by low-level mages.

Then the experiment that happened later may be an accident. Fina’s father used a self-made electromagnetic array to accelerate some particles that had been found to be charged but accidentally collided with another group of particles, resulting in the mixing of the two particles.

Originally this experiment should have ended in failure, but Fina’s father discovered that the mixed particles continued to move under the acceleration of the electromagnetic field, and left three traces on the target receiving board!

The magic on the receiving board could give feedback to the charged particles or rays, showing traces. Two of the three traces should be the original trajectories of the two particles, while the third one could not be explained. Then through precise calculations, Fina’s father obtained the ratio of the charge to the mass of the particle represented by this new trajectory.

It was a pity here that, due to errors in the four equations describing the electromagnetic field set up by Fina’s father, his calculation results also had major errors. At first, he thought it was a new element, but its mass was too small, and it seemed that unless two particles collided in the electromagnetic array, it was difficult to separate them, so he only called this kind of particle “negatively charged particles”.

Soon, Fina’s father found a way to stably produce such negatively charged particles. He used this to repeat the scene of the experiment at that time and found that the collision of such particles could deflect particles that were otherwise uncharged in the electromagnetic circles.

Fina’s father conducted several experiments, and he found that the mass of these elements, which was deduced according to several equations he deduced, was exactly the mass of the elements that had been measured.

But there were exceptions.

He measured several elements and found that there was not just one trace after the impact.

For example, Netron, the gas element that was considered to be phlogiston-saturated air in the phlogiston theory, appeared two traces close to each other and one trace a little farther away in Fina’s father’s magic circle.

Fina’s father first studied the particles represented by the two traces of similar distances and found that the properties of the two element particles were almost the same, except for their masses. He thought this might be an error in the experiment, and he had not had time to verify it.

However, the element particles represented by another trace farther away, in Fina’s father’s research, actually showed completely different properties from the elements of Netron.

This element was a kind of gas, colorless and odorless. It was not prone to have alchemy reactions to various substances. Its density was greater than that of air. When it was energized, it presented a purple-red light.

This was likely to be a brand new element!
