Inside the Land of Truth...

Douglas deduced with Lucien’s paper in his hands and compared the results with known experiment data. In the end, he put down the paper and pulled his bow-tie, before he asked in confusion, “What do those equations indicate?”

He had read the paper too many times throughout the previous days. He quite appreciated Lucien’s ideas that were based on the particle nature and the discontinuity, and he was delighted that the many problems in the new alchemy were resolved. However, as time went by, his delight did not grow into satisfaction and happiness. He was not even as excited as he expected.

That was because for sorcerers, fixing one problem often meant a deeper understanding about a certain arcana field, and more specific models or patterns had been found. Lucien’s quantum mechanics, on the other hand, was not so. It was true that results that agreed with actual circumstances could be achieved, and the problems and the quantum numbers recently could be included. However, there was nothing beyond that. It could neither describe the internal structure of atoms accurately nor offer the patterns within. Everybody could only be at a loss after reading it. They knew the results, but they did not know where the results came from.

The matrix was like a gate that guarded the truth of the world. It was mysterious and cold and blocked everybody outside. Although the arcanists in the field of elements and alchemy were overjoyed, nobody else was as excited as they should’ve been after the many problems in the new alchemy were resolved.

“The matrix is not difficult by itself. There are similar mathematical tools in the past, but the calculation can be quite a headache when it is melted into the complicated system of the new alchemy.” Douglas shook his head in amusement. “Everybody has been locked into the maze of matrix by Lucien. He cannot explain the arcana significance behind it even though he modifies it with the existing mathematical tools.”

“However, in any case, we cannot deny the importance of Lucien’s quantum mechanics. We just need time to figure out what is hidden below.”

Instead of continuing the studies on quantum mechanics, he resumed his effort to get a precise solution to Evans equations of gravitational field. He believed that the solution must contain the mysteries of the sky and the celestial bodies.

Even the grand arcanists of his level needed to be focused on arcana. He probably would spare some of their time to study the new alchemy or the electromagnetic field, but he was still mostly dedicated to the force field and astrology, especially after the general theory of relativity gave him the hope of becoming a demigod.

Same as Douglas, most of the arcanists recognized the complexity and ‘unfriendliness’ of the new system after the initial excitement. It was like the most celibate lady that coldly rejected all the men who approached her, not letting them know what she thought.

More and more arcanists began to have a headache when they tried to imagine the internal model of atoms and give actual significance to Lucien’s quantum mechanics.

However, they would one day regret their attempt to search for the actual significance. They would wish that Lucien had never come up with such a thing, because the truth of the world was also a ‘destructive beast’!

In that regard, only several people were different.

After reading the paper, Hathaway calculated for she didn’t know how long in the clean, tidy library. The red tea and cookies before her did not change at all. Then, she was deep in thought, her eyebrows furrowed, as she looked for the arcana significance of the system and why the two values did not comply with the commutative property .

After she failed to find anything for now, she immediately gave up random thinking and decided to resolve the problem of two-electron atoms based on the new system, partly to confirm the correctness of the new system and partly to find the arcana significance from real practice.

Fernando accepted Lucien’s idea and abandoned the attempt to look for a model for the internal structure of atoms. He focused on the exploration of the arcana significance and combined it with his study on the distribution of electrons.

Vicente and Hellen, on the other hand, began their study by exploring the arcana significance of Lucien’s quantum mechanics and the feature that electrons behave as waves.

Inside the Kingdom of Electromagnetism...

After confirming Lucien’s paper, Brook nodded in approval first and then devoted himself to his work, trying to give electrons a wave function. If the problems in new alchemy could be resolved from the perspective of particles, why couldn’t they be resolved from the perspective of waves?

“Did I miss something? Brook asked himself in confusion. The initial wave function was full of problems.

The more he inferred the wave function, the more he felt that Lucien was right that mathematics should be studied first.

In the Theater of Destruction, Oliver was caught in a similar situation.

......

Because he had to wait for Douglas, Fernando, Hathaway and Raventi to give the proof on the matrix, Lucien’s quantum mechanics was in fact published one month late. As a result, the experiment on electron diffraction to be published in April was postponed to May. Otherwise, the arcanists who could not understand the complicated calculations wouldn’t be able to tell the value of quantum mechanics at all.

The issue of March prompted the sorcerers to contemplate on the unknown. Amazed by Lucien’s amazing creation, they barely had any difficulty in accepting the idea. In the meantime, Fernando’s exclusion principle made the sorcerers who were adept at elements and alchemy overjoyed. Lucien, on the other hand, was making preparations to craft a legendary item. He had also constructed ‘Evans’ Hand of Uncertainties’ into his soul.

On April 1, when the College Entrance Exam of Advanced Magic started, Lucien arrived at the Nekso Palace and was led to the treasury of the royal family by Nekso Palace.

“I almost let Alferris know that I was coming to the treasury.” Lucien said to Natasha in amusement. The guy had ‘borrowed’ his silver moon medal ‘Superconductivity’ for ‘appreciation’.

Natasha had seen Alferris once and learnt of its greediness herself. “Hehe. He definitely wouldn’t leave the treasury again! When it saw the Holm Crown Ring on my hand, it asked me whether or not only ladies could receive such a beautiful and precious ring and men like you could only get broken ‘iron ring’. I suspect that it would’ve been married to the wealthy dragons for their wealth if it weren’t a male dragon.’

After teasing the little crystal dragon, Natasha smiled, “Which legendary material do you need?”

Natasha had told Lucien what was inside the treasury and asked him to talk to other legendary experts. Regarding that, Grand Duke of Orvarit could only shake his head with a smile. Such secrets were usually kept confidential by the king or the queen, who would not even tell their spouse.

Looking at Natasha who was wearing a white long dress, Lucien nodded his head. “The Dragon Marrow Stone. Mr. Oliver wants it in preparation for his life extension ritual in the future. He has a stellar core that is perfect to accommodate the special abilities of ‘Observer of Time and Space’.”

The Dragon Marrow Stone was from the graveyard of dragons. The essence of their decayed bodies were congregated into brown, translucent crystals. Together with the scent of death in the graveyard, the stone was given the features of both life and death. It was one of the most precious materials in the school of necromancy.

If the Dragon Marrow Stone came from a primordial dragon, it would be a legendary material and could prolong one’s life by around a thousand years. Of course, those below legendary couldn’t bear it and would die on the spot.

The Stellar Core was the ‘belonging’ of certain collapsed planets. They seemed to be of zero mass, but they could unleash powerful gravity under special circumstances. In the entire Congress of Magic, only Oliver had one of them. Douglas had gotten one, but he had already used it for his unique legendary item.

“Alright.” Natasha opened the treasury and led Lucien to the Dragon Marrow Stone without any hesitation. Although it was an extremely precious material that could extend life, she did not stop at all.

Playing with the half transparent crystal in his hand, Lucien said jokingly, “Are you not afraid that you can’t find a material to extend your longevity?”

Lucien intended to be gentle, but his words somehow became banter when he spoke them out. But of course, Lucien had already grabbed Natasha’s right hand to let her know what he felt.

Natasha declared like a knight, “I believe that I will definitely advance into legendary!”

Then, she added in a low voice, “I will definitely be a legend that is better than you!”

The determination in her last sentence somehow carried the air of grief.

Lucien immediately smiled.

......

On April 8, two days before the wedding...

Inside the Atomic Universe, on the weird planet made of iron, Lucien was crafting his unique legendary inside the magic laboratory that was moved over.

The glittering Stellar Core was placed at the center of the magic circle. It was a clear polyhedron the size of a fist, reflecting dreamy rays on every facet.

At this moment, the Stellar Core had been melted into weird liquids. Magic materials were embedded into it from Lucien’s pushing, making it writhe hard as if it were giving birth to something.

Lucien understood that the most critical moment had come. Therefore, he closed his right hand and illuminated the magic circles at the periphery according to the advancement ritual of ‘Observer of Time and Space’ with his spiritual power.

Everything was enshrouded in vague light. Ripples that emitted the air of time seemed to be spreading out.

Then, the light seemed to be attracted by something and collapsed by the Stellar Core all of a sudden. There was nothing but darkness and depression around. historical

The complicated structure and the indescribable stripes were fed back to Lucien’s brain, which caught him rather unprepared since it was the first time he had crafted any legendary item. Thankfully, he had the complete model of ‘Observer of Time and Space’ inside his cognitive world, and he could still do something.

With a mechanized mind, Lucien calmly powered the model of his legendary class with his spiritual power, allowing it to influence the process of melting.

After the difficult star was passed, Lucien got the hang of it. The spells, the gesture and the connection of spiritual power were completed one procedure after another. In the end, a cluster of silver brilliance burst out from the center of the magic circle, driving away the collapsed darkness!

After the light calmed down again, a ‘silver pocket watch’ appeared inside the broken magic circle. It was the perfect size to be grabbed by ones hand!
