Arcane Age

The happy time always passes quickly, and the busy study life begins again, but now the students of Violet are full of fighting spirit, and the whole college has an atmosphere of high spirits and hard work.

In this atmosphere, the 18th issue of "Journal of Violet" was soon released. This academic newspaper, which was first founded nine months ago with only eight pages, has gradually been expanded to a full sixty-four pages, and the content has also been expanded. It is so rich that it has become a comprehensive magic newspaper. Magicians majoring in any school can find valuable content that they care about in this journal.

However, the 18th issue of "Acta Violet" has attracted unprecedented attention, because starting from this issue, publishing papers in "Acta Violet" will directly earn arcane points, and arcane points are the same as "Arcanist" "This is a career full of glory.

Early in the morning, there was a long queue in front of the library door. In the past, every issue of "Journal of Violet" appeared here first, allowing students to borrow it.

The library only opens at the ninth magic hour in the morning, but it is still only the seventh magic hour in the morning. The late autumn sun is no longer so dazzling, and the warm and humid air on the Western Golden Sea seems to be much cooler.

"I heard that every article in this issue of "Journal of Violet" has an arcane point evaluation directly behind it. As long as you meet the ten arcane point standards required for a one-star arcanist, you can register directly at the Morning Star Tower. , to become a glorious arcanist!" A tall, burly man excitedly talked to the classmates standing in front of him. They were all freshmen who had just entered school in September this year and were still in the magic apprenticeship stage.

"Hanks, this is your first time outside the library so early. I'm really surprised." The boy standing in front of him was thin. He was wearing a white shirt and was holding a large book seriously. Looking at it: "To be able to publish a paper in the Violet Journal, you must at least be an official magician. You are still far away!"

"Cruise, don't you have a dream? Last time, fifteen arcane masters were conferred in the Morning Star Tower, but except for Principal Xiwei and Professor Christine, the others were not from our Violet! But this time it is not the case. It’s the same, our Violet Academy will give birth to new arcane masters, and they may even be students!” The burly man named Hanks retorted unhappily.

"Your inference is not wrong. In the past 17 issues of "Journal of Violet", 35.2% of the papers were published by students. However, it is not clear what the weight of the journal is and how difficult it is to obtain ten arcane points. ." Cruise closed the thick "Basic Magic Theory" in his hand, turned around and glanced at the long queue spreading behind him: "What a spectacular scene, there are already 852 people in the queue!"

"What a perverted vision, you should be a marksman!" Hanks shouted.

"Your beast intuition is very keen. My ancestor was once the most famous marksman in Newfoundland. He once hunted a sixth-level magical creature with his own hands." Cruise showed a bright smile: "Dynamic vision is a gift from our ancestors. My gift, but a magician is obviously cooler than a marksman, isn't he?"

"Hahaha, you are right. My father is the most traditional knight. Our family has been serving the Earl Steiger family for nine consecutive generations. However, I actually relied on Principal Xiwei's "One Month to Teach You to Become a Knight". "Magic Apprentice" understood the zero-ring spell, which caused an uproar among us." Hanks was obviously resonated.

"I very much agree with Principal Xiwei's words, 'Arcana will eventually change the world.' Magic is gradually becoming more popular. This is a new direction of human evolution. We are born in this golden age, and maybe we will be lucky enough in the future. Leave your name in the history books!" Cruise shrugged, his eyes full of hope for the future.

It was finally time for the library to open, and a long flow of people, already exceeding a thousand people, began to pour in. Almost everyone went straight to the area of ​​"Journal of Violet" to start the borrowing process.

"Haha, it's freshly baked and still hot!" Hanks squeezed out from the crowd and raised the colorful newspaper in his hand with a happy face: "Come and take a look, I can't wait!"

Cruise shook his head and pointed to the "Keep Quiet" sign on the edge of the aisle.

Hanks quickly covered his mouth and sat down in the seat next to Cruise. The cover of the new issue of Violet Journal was divided into upper and lower parts. The upper part showed the furious thunder and the golden lightning tearing through the sky, while the lower part showed Some of them are strange meters, instruments and coils.

The bold title on the cover is so eye-catching: "New Properties of Lightning in the Steady State," by Meryl.

"Teacher Meryl's cover paper! I guess she is the next Arcanist!" Hanks said excitedly to Cruise using the "message technique".

"Of course, this is the cover paper!" Cruise responded with the same "messaging technique" and he had already opened the second page.

"Teacher Xiwei made a lot of pioneering explorations into the phenomena of electricity and magnetism, two old magic systems, in the article "Electromagnetic Induction - Expansion of New Fields of the School of Elements", which inspired me a lot. I have always been All lightning spells cannot be mastered accurately even by the caster himself. No one can know how much damage the 'Lightning Spear' he projects can cause..."

"To this end, I used a variety of methods to try to create a stable power supply and selected a variety of materials. The following are the experimental ideas, processes, and results at each stage..."

"Eventually, I created a stable, low-voltage power source that corresponded to a pool of elements, which I called a 'battery'..."

"I define the unit of electricity as caplaya, referred to as 'card', symbol C..."

"I define the unit of voltage as voltera, referred to as 'volt', symbol V..."

"I define the unit of electric current as Ajaccio, abbreviated as 'A', symbol A..."

"What an incredible article. A new field opened up by Principal Seavey. Instructor Meryl independently completed the construction of the entire magnificent palace. This paper should not be published in a journal at all. I think it is fully qualified to be published in " "Arcane"!" Cruise raised his head with an excited expression on his face and shouted excitedly, completely forgetting to use "Messaging".

"That's right! You're right, bro!" His words quickly resonated, but the person who responded was not Hanks sitting next to him, but another tall boy in the distance, who turned around , waved happily to Cruise.

Almost in an instant, the originally quiet library turned into a noisy ocean. You must know that although Mentor Meryl has always been the recognized mentor of all Violet people, she is still under the eyes of everyone at the age of less than seventeen. inner. Now, Teacher Meryl's article is so excellent and constructive, but it has not been published in "Arcane". This is really unfair!

"Quiet!" The librarian's words instantly silenced the entire hall: "Please don't make any noise, or please get out!"

Cruise sat down and turned directly to the final score of the paper.

"A very outstanding work and experiment, completely different from the experiment of traditional ideas. Miss Meryl independently completed in-depth exploration of the field of electricity and defined a large number of new units. The mystery of lightning in a steady state has been opened to us. This paper will earn 300 arcane points. Congratulations to Mentor Meryl for being promoted to a four-star arcanist!"

Three hundred arcane points, a four-star arcanist!

You must know that among the first batch of arcanists who published papers in the first issue of "Arcane", there was also a magic master from the Royal Academy of Magic of France who only received 150 arcane points, and in the end was only a three-star arcanist!

But the 300 arcane points gained by tutor Meryl for this paper pushed her directly to the position of a four-star arcanist, the same level as Professor Christine.

Can a paper in "Journal of Violet" also receive such a huge amount of arcane points? In an instant, Cruise's anger at not being able to publish the paper in Arcane disappeared.

He could even think of the profound meaning behind this paper. Principal Xiwei and the people in charge of the journal wanted to use this huge amount of arcane points to completely ignite the enthusiasm of the Violet people for research, development, and innovation!

Cruise no longer had the desire to read every paper in its entirety. He quickly flipped through the entire "Journal of Violet". Almost all papers were awarded arcane points, of course, most of them ranged from 0.5-5. It's rare to get ten arcane points in one essay and become an arcane master directly.

Among these lucky and successful people, Cruise saw famous names one after another, such as Professor Morris, the fat and funny Faawe instructor, the manager of the Arcane Garden, Master Linden, and Professor Mrs. Winschel of Emotional Magic, as well as Student Council President Esmeralda and "Violet Nova" - Therese!

Esmeralda gained a total of twenty arcane points with her article "Research on Marine Biology in the Deep Sea Plane - Bloodline Transformation Experiment" and was directly promoted to a one-star arcanist. Even Jude, who was the second author, Also gained five arcane points.

"Violet Nova" Therese also obtained fifteen arcane points with the article "New Interpretations of Spell Combinations - An Exploration of Elementary Protection Spells", helping him to be promoted to a one-star arcanist.

In this issue of "Violet Journal", a total of twelve people have obtained more than ten arcane points. As long as they go to the Morning Star Tower, they can register and receive their own arcane badges and become a glorious arcanist!

Among these twelve people, there are three exchange students from the French Royal Academy of Magic. In fact, the half-year exchange period has ended. Most of the magicians from Paali have boarded the Violet and embarked on their return journey, but there are also some More than a dozen people stayed.

They learned more here, and it seemed that Violet was a better choice than returning to Paali.

To everyone's surprise, Princess Lucia also stayed. Her attitude was very firm, and many people tried to persuade her but could not change her decision.

With the release of this issue of "Journal of Violet", it can be said that Esmeralda and Therese are even more famous.

The other ten newly promoted arcanists are either Violet's professors and mentors, or high-level magicians. It is not surprising that they become arcanists.

But Esmeralda and Therese are still just students, and they have just been promoted to magicians not long ago, but they can become one-star arcanists when they are only first-level magicians!

I don’t know how many people have taken classes with the Student Council President and Violet Nova, read books in a study room, been in the same group in a magic experiment...

They are the people living around them, but they use their efforts and wisdom to let everyone see the miracle!

Those students who failed to publish articles in the Journal of Violet are highly motivated and ready to continue to submit articles after conducting sufficiently in-depth research. They are full of confidence in the future and firmly believe that one day they can be like Esmeralda and Trey. Ze shines like this.

The students who had published articles in "Journal of Violet" but only gained 0.5 to 5 arcane points were not discouraged. They saw the glimmer of hope and firmly believed that they were on the right path. !

Even with Esmeralda's calmness, after seeing that she had actually obtained twenty arcane points and became a one-star arcanist with this paper, she still jumped up in the laboratory with excitement.

"What a pity. I only have five arcane points. How can I get the remaining half?" Jude stretched out his left hand and looked at his five fingers blankly.

"Don't count on me anymore. I've given you enough help!" Esmeralda immediately regained her composure. She folded her hands in front of her chest: "You need to find a research topic yourself and then conduct experiments. This is important for you." It is not difficult for you, my Jude the Magician!”

"Okay, I listen to you, you are always right!" Jude slumped on the sofa, assumed the most comfortable posture, and stared at the ceiling blankly: "New topics, valuable new topics Topic, what should I choose?”

"Choose the field in which you are best and most interested. Only with enough hobbies and enthusiasm can you burst out enough sparks of wisdom!" Esmeralda gave advice.

"What's your favorite field? Let me think about it!" Jude fell into deep thought. After a long time, he suddenly jumped three feet high and shouted excitedly: "I have it!"

"What do you have?" Esmeralda turned around from the desk helplessly and asked.

"I have found the research field that I like and am good at the most!" Jude came to his sister's side, bent down and said with a smile.

"What is it?" Esmeralda smoothed her hair and asked casually.

"Through my practical research, I found that once a man and a woman fall in love, they only see each other, and the other person in their eyes will be more beautiful and handsome. Is this just a psychological and emotional effect? ​​Or are there other reasons? This is A very worthy research topic, belonging to the field of emotional magic, I think Mrs. Winschel will give me some help." Jude blinked.

"I'm really convinced!" Esmeralda stood up and pushed her brother away who was close to him: "Go and study the secrets of your love. Don't disturb my study!"
