Greetings, Mister Principal - Chapter 140

Sullivan walked through the corridor in a hurry.

He had just gotten off the airship. Due to a previous accident at the city of Ernest’s airport, the access to the airport was severely affected. The airship Sullivan was on, floated in the sky for about an hour before being allowed to land.

Sullivan held his measurement data in his hand. After collecting this data, he was finally able to correlate and verify the isotope phenomenon in Reiner Ian Gray’s paper. The result was obvious. He found this deviation in relative elemental mass in several elements, and Reiner Ian Gray’s thesis was correct.

However, Sullivan had no way of judging the part of the periodic table. He had some knowledge on the law of elements, but it was worthless in front of His Excellency Steinen’s paper. Reiner’s paper presented an objection to His Excellency Steinen’s method of ordering relative elemental masses, which was justified in light of isotopic phenomena.

This made Sullivan feel confused. He originally wanted to find his senior Kailavin Napishtim who had worked on separating elements, but found that the other party had already passed away, leaving only a piece of natural Redir ore and a box that could shield the energy released from it on a large scale.

From Sullivan’s investigation, this box had an electromagnetic magic circle attached to it and was made of several heavy metals. Although Sullivan didn’t know how Kailavin Napishtim figured out such a method, he was able to confirm that this box could indeed block those energies after some testing.

Because it was completely impossible to know the research ideas of Kailavin Napishtim, Sullivan had no way to analyze the thing he was currently holding, thus his search had come to a dead end.

In desperation, he could only come to Ernest, hoping to get help from the Excellencies from Mercury Balance. Reiner Ian Gray’s thesis involved a field that Sullivan could not evaluate, probably only the High-level mages were qualified to review his paper.

When Sullivan came to the hotel designated by Mercury Balance, he couldn’t find the High-level mages at all. After asking the mage in charge of the reception, he learned that most of the excellencies are attending a meeting in the center of Ernest, so Sullivan could only rush to the center of Ernest by horse-drawn carriage.

Had it not been for the fact that unlicensed mages were not allowed to fly at will in Ernest, Sullivan might have jumped up and flew at low altitude. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

Sullivan was quickly approaching the unusually shaped building, but he was thinking about other things in his heart.

Previously, he always had a hunch that the development of magic would become more and more rapid in the future. If he could not keep up with the pace of the development of the world, he would only be reduced to an outdated scholar in the tower, and his chances of advancement would get further and further away from him. Whether it was the previous paper of Ian Gray, or this paper on the periodic table of the elements in his hand, they all made Sullivan’s hunch become even stronger.

And at the center of all this, whether it was a coincidence or other reasons, was Reiner Ian Gray.

Sullivan was familiar with history, and all of this was not uncommon in history.

One of the founders of modern magic, His Excellency Herman Bragg proposed the basic theory of modern magic at the age of 26. In the same year, his three publicly published articles revealed step by step the power of modern magic compared to ancient magic, which caused many mages to argue for a while. He was regarded as a rare genius in a century.

And who would have thought that just a few years prior, this legendary mage was kicked out by his teacher because he had impregnated his teacher’s daughter?

Sullivan had always been reluctant to admit that this world belonged to a gifted person, but now, looking at the paper in his hand, Sullivan had a deep self-doubt.

He didn’t even notice when the carriage arrived at his destination. It was only when the coachman reminded him that he stepped out.

He paid the fare and walked quickly into the conference center. After inquiring at the front desk, he came to the door of the ninth conference room.

Many high-level mages’ students were gathered here. Someone recognized Sullivan and greeted him.

“Sullivan, why are you here? The people who came to this meeting room today were all really special.”

The other party was a student of His Excellency Eagles Ferdo and had worked with Sullivan several times.

“What do you mean, did someone else come before me?”

Sullivan heard the meaning of the other person’s words and asked with a frown.

“Yeah, Reiner Ian Gray, the youngest winner of the Hohenheim Golden Cup in history. He followed His Excellency Demetrius into the conference room.”

The other party replied, causing Sullivan to be so shocked that all the papers in his hand fell to the ground.

“How come?! Why did he come over?”

Many emotions suddenly rushed to Sullivan’s heart. It seemed that the footsteps of this Reiner Ian Gray had far exceeded his imagination.

But before Sullivan could recover from this shocking fact, all of the mages suddenly felt a magic energy fluctuation in the conference room.

That it was a surging of magic energy could be clearly sensed, and the amount of it was beyond imagination.

There was only one possibility in such a situation.

“Feedback from the world…”

Sullivan muttered to himself, feeling lost.

…

The conference room was silent.

High-level mages were all digesting the experimental phenomena they had just witnessed. Who would have thought that in this meeting that was supposed to discuss the nature of light, the arrival of an apprentice would directly lead to the discovery of two new elements and a proof of the law of the elements.

Reiner’s periodic table satisfied all of the needs for mages in discovering elements. It was not only a list of existing elements, but also a map that could predict new elements to guide a mage’s exploration.

At the same time, Reiner’s research also revealed deeper questions. What are elements? What should be the model of the elements. In what form do the electrons exist in the elements. What is the reason for the difference in the number of nuclear charges? What is the relationship between the nuclear charge number and the relative element mass, and between the relative element mass and the various properties of the element?

One question was answered, and more questions followed.

As Reiner said to His Excellency Lizmo before, human knowledge was a circle. The greater the knowledge, the larger the circle, but at the same time, the more contact with the unknown parts of the outside world. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

Only when one stands on the peak can one see the taller mountains in the distance.

“I think this periodic table of elements can be regarded as a milestone discovery.”

President Demetrius admired. He sighed softly, as if it was for this era, and also for the humble and nameless father behind these two papers.

“Just like the many brilliant magic civilizations created by the ancient mages, and the modern magic foundation formulated by His Excellency Herman Bragg back then, I think this periodic table is not just a result of a regular summary of the nature, but the end of the old era and a prelude to a new era. From now on, a mages’ research will no longer only focus on the surface of the material, but will go deeper into the micro world and reach the end of the micro.”

He said, his voice was low and deep, echoing in the heart of every High-level mage
