Meet the principal
Scene 49. Interrupted meeting
Rainbow Tower, Mercury Scale headquarters.
This is a low-key manor. Few people usually pass by, but the silver scale sign hanging on the door makes people awe-inspiring. This is the headquarters of Mercury Scale.
Since flying is not allowed in the Rainbow Tower, of course it was already close to dusk when Fleming arrived in a carriage.
Walking through the corridor of the manor, Fleming showed his identification to the alchemy statue stationed at the door. Then the door opened and he walked into the mansion.
"I know, Lord Saffronge, your position will be arranged in the third row."
"I swear, damn, I will never experiment with that guy again, it's killing me!"
"No, no, I'm not targeting you, Mr. Mitland, we really can't squeeze out another seat."
"What? Something happened to the Francois family? Was it an attack or something else?"
"I hope to hear your views on these theories at this meeting. To be honest, Angelina, I feel a little confused about the future of alchemy now."
"Hey, I brought this drink back from the southern part of the Kingdom of Astor. It tastes very special. You must try it."
...
In the hall of the mansion, people were coming and going, and many people were discussing the 305th annual meeting of the mercury balance that will be held on the shores of Lake Wagner in a week. This is one of the largest academic seminars on the mercury balance, including high-level Many powerful mages, including mages, will be present at the conference. During the three-day conference, you can hear the most cutting-edge reports from various academic masters. It can be said to be a magical event.
Fleming was naturally invited. According to the regulations, he could bring one student to the venue. Fleming's choice was naturally Galleon.
"Lord Ernst, I have read your hypothesis about the fire element. It is very bold. If you can find experimental verification, then I think you will definitely be able to obtain a Hohenheim Gold Cup."
A mage with five lines of gold on his sleeves saw Fleming and came up to him. He was the clerk on duty and was responsible for reception.
The Hohenheim Gold Cup is a reward within the Mercury Scale. It is used to reward mages who have made outstanding achievements in the alchemy system. If nothing goes wrong, this year's Hohenheim Gold Cup should be the discovery of the new element "Keira" through electrolysis. Obtained by Lord Cornwall Penzance, this mage is nothing more than commercial flattery.
Of course, if Fleming could really perfect the combustion theory and even find the element of fire, he would surely be able to win a Hohenheim Gold Cup, but that is obviously too far away.
"Don't say polite words to me, Farast, where is Lord Dmitry?"
Fleming asked.
"Your Excellency Dmitri and the other Excellencies are having a meeting. I think you'd better wait until later..."
He originally wanted Fleming to sit and wait for a while, but the serious expression on his face made the fifth-ring mage named Falast feel the seriousness of the matter. He nodded and answered immediately.
"Please come with me."
They walked through the crowded hall, climbed up to the third floor, and came to the door of a conference room. Falast knocked on the door until the sound of permission to enter came from inside, then he slowly opened the door and let in Fleming entered the conference room and waited at the door.
The conference room was very bright. In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun was shining into this spacious conference room through the large floor-to-ceiling windows. At first sight, Fleming saw Frederic Demeter sitting on the side of the long table. Here, the Nine Ring Mage, the leader of Mercury Scale.
But before he could speak, he noticed the other people in the room and suddenly panicked.
Because those are none other than the high-level mages at the top of the mercury scale.
Maria Einstein, a seventh-level high-level mage, discovered two brand new ones from the ore,
The element with a certain energy leakage property has been promoted to a high level, and she is a rare high-level female mage in Mercury Scale.
Cornwall Penzance, a high-level mage of the Seventh Ring, has made great achievements in the field of alchemy. His latest achievement is the invention of electrolysis, which dissociates the new element "Keira" from caustic alkali. This year's Hohenheim Gold Cup is a powerful One of the candidates.
Robert Lizmo, the eighth-level high-level mage, was the first to discover the mystery of vacuum. He was the first to propose the theory that the volume of air changes with pressure. Twenty-nine items of wind magic are named after him.
Eagles Field, a nine-ring high-level mage, is most famous for proposing the concepts of elements and element quality, which triggered a craze for element discovery that continues to this day.
And Lanchester Stanion, who is at one end of the long table. Although this legendary mage is no longer the leader of Mercury Scale, he still participates in relevant meetings as an authority in the alchemy department.
There are also students of these high-level mages here, but His Excellency Cornish Penzance comes alone.
"Fleming, why are you so panicked?"
Frederick Dmitry asked with concern. He was gentle and calm. Even if Fleming's arrival interrupted the meeting, he had no intention of pursuing it.
"Um, Your Excellency, my student Gallon has received a review paper and I think it is necessary to show it to you."
Fleming was like a humble student at this time, bowing his head slightly and saying.
"Reviewing papers? Why does this kind of thing need to be reviewed by a high-level mage? Are the guys on the paper review committee free of charge?"
Cornwall Penzance asked rhetorically. He was not targeting Fleming. The Academic Paper Review Committee has long established a corresponding mechanism to review papers. Unless it is a new paper by a high-level mage, it is impossible to pass it on to Here, and since the original reviewer of this paper was Fleming's student, it means that this is a paper written by a low-level mage. In Penzance's eyes, a paper of this level is indeed not qualified for them to come here. review.
Of course, sometimes some of you will train your own students and let them be reviewed by high-level mages, so Cornwall also asked one more question.
"Which student's paper is it?"
"No one's student...actually, this is a mage's apprentice's thesis."
Fleming no longer dared to speak, as if every word he spoke would detonate a dynamite.
"Mage's Apprentice? Fleming, are you serious?"
Cornwall raised his eyebrows, and lightning seemed to flash in the air.
"Wait a minute, since Fleming is so panicked, I think this paper may indeed have some value. We didn't set up the paper review mechanism because we wanted to break the shackles. If we stick to these rules, wouldn't we fall into our own trap? A prison?"
Lanchester Stanion spoke, causing everyone else to stop speaking and fall into silence.
This is the majesty of the legendary mage.
"Fleming, bring the paper over and let's take a look."
After hearing the legendary mage's order, Fleming took out the paper in his hand.
Dozens of pages of papers flew up due to an invisible force. Lanchester waved his hand, and paper and pens flew in a corner of the room. He quickly printed out five copies of the paper and flew them into the hands of several high-level mages.
Frederick adjusted his glasses, got the paper, and first saw the title.
"The properties and compound analysis of the two new elements "Ocles" and "Hydra" obtained by electrolysis of water, as well as several conjectures about combustion theory."
"electrolyte?"
There were doubtful voices among the high-ranking mages, but no one continued to speak. Everyone, including Cornwall who protested at the beginning, began to read this paper seriously.
