Chapter 572

The changes in the cognitive world came to a full stop . Except for the additional special magic models and symbols, it seemed no different from the past . However, if one were to observe it more carefully, they would discover the curves at the edge of the world and around the stars . Also, the light spots of elements everywhere were much clearer . The protons and neutrons were restrained by an uncanny force, and the electrons around them were in the shape of a cloud . When they were observed, however, they were immediately reduced into particles .

As the background, the other three fundamental forces had minor changes, too . The electromagnetic waves and light were connected to ‘wind’, and the uncanny force that restrained the atomic nucleus glimmered with ‘water’ .

The internal members of the atom gathered in groups into different magic symbols, turning into the models of ‘Atomic Fission’ and ‘Eternal Blaze’, two legendary spells . The two models joined with even more complicated symbols into a dizzying cubic pattern .

“Is this the legendary class based on ‘new alchemy’?” Lucien observed with interest . Because he hadn’t really entered the realm of quantum mechanics yet, there were no corresponding legendary spells, and it was still the ‘fission’ and ‘fusion’ like before .

The fundamental legendary magic was the most basic skill of a legendary class . They were shorter and easier to release, and they were much more powerful than the non-fundamental legendary magics . For a legendary class, there could only be two fundamental magics at first, but as they dug deeper into the field, the number of such magics might grow .

For example, the advanced fundamental magics of ‘Demigod-lich Howling’ were ‘Demigod-lich Howling’ and ‘Life Ritual’, and those of the Lord of Storm were ‘Furious Storm’ and ‘Storm Barrier’ .

Lucien’s legendary class based on ‘new alchemy’ was unique in that neither of the two fundamental legendary magics depended on his demiplane . However, ‘Eternal Blaze’ could only be performed at least in the level three of legendary .

Lucien found two pieces of powerful paper made of elvish rinds, the materials to make advanced scrolls . Then, he copied the new legendary class and its two fundamental legendary magics to it .

Bright, refreshing green light appeared, restraining and recording the mysterious cubic pattern . Of course, due to the nature of the materials, they could do nothing more than recording .

“How should I call the new legendary class?” Lucien pushed his monocle . Not bothering to think, he simply picked the most straightforward name .

As his quill fell on the paper, a few more words were added on one side of the paper .

“Atom Controller”!

As for the two fundamental magics, due to the limited time, Lucien still named them as before: “Atomic Fission’ and ‘Eternal Blaze’

As for the other legendary class based on the general theory of relativity, Lucien decided to keep it as his trump card and only discuss with his teacher about the fundamental magics included in the legendary class .

“This new legendary class will be named as ‘Observer of Time and Space’… The two fundamental magics will be named as ‘Gravity Collapse’ and ‘Space Staff’ . ” Lucien named them according to their features . It was a pity that it was not the legendary class he was going to advance into . However, after the quantum system was established, it would have its own view of time and space, too .

After putting the paper into his storage, Lucien finally discovered that he had advanced into the ninth circle without him knowing and that he had an addition spell of ‘Time Stop’ . Frowning, he thought, “The higher one’s level is, the more weird the so-called ‘feedback of the real world’ feels…”

“Also, the vast and transcendent space was never recorded by any other legendary sorcerers . They also described that something was looking down upon them from somewhere far away and intangible . I also had the feeling, but there was an additional ‘illusionary space’ . The feedback of the real world seems to be its interaction…”

Unable to figure out what was going on, Lucien dropped his confusion and opened the door, only to encounter Fernando who had been teleported to his front .

“Let’s talk in ‘News of the World’ . ” Too impatient to satisfy his curiosity, Fernando brought Lucien to the broadcast room after a blink and asked Samantha, “Get prepared . Continue the livestream of ‘News of the World’ . Lucien will be the host!”

“Alright . ” Samantha looked at Lucien and the Lord of Storm curiously and turned on the broadcast magic circles without any delay .

The arcanists in the room stared at them in excitement, eager to know the theoretical support of the unusual phenomenon of gravity projection, which could recover their stricken confidence .

Seizing the moment, Fernando asked Lucien, “What new theories have you got?”

Thinking for a moment, he added, “Are they disruptive?”

Lucien’s lips twitched . “Master, I told you before that I was trying to include gravity in the special theory of relativity and extrapolate it to a more general frame of reference . I was still making preparations, but what happened today forced me to finish it in advance . Based on this system, there will be an explanation closer to the truth regarding the nature of gravity . ”

“An explanation regarding the nature of gravity…” Fernando seemed relieved . “As long as your explanation is not that a supreme being created gravity, it will be fine . What about the changes that followed?”

Lucien confessed the excuses he prepared . “I stayed in the Atom Institution to run the experiments in search of neutrons . I was too excited after the half-solidification of my cognitive world and thereby completed the experiments, ascertaining the existence of neutrons . Therefore, the legendary class of ‘new alchemy’ was fed back, allowing my cognitive world to evolve that way . ”

“That’s too coincidental! You may trick the outsiders, but not me!” Fernando roared in a low voice . He suspected that Lucien had always known how to find neutrons, except that he never did the experiments because he had other purposes, say, obtaining more reference credits with new alchemy . “You completed it at such a moment because you wanted your legendary class to lean towards the new alchemy instead of gravity and the theory of relativity?”

Lucien smiled rather embarrassedly, “Yes . The field of atoms is my foundation and my future direction . ”

After accepting Lucien’s explanation, Fernando held back his urge of roaring . “Give me your paper . You go and prepare your speech . ”

Lucien nodded and gave his paper to his teacher, before he sat across Samantha .

At this moment, Hellen, in her white magic robe, also arrived at the broadcast room .

“Why are you here?” Fernando glared at Hellen, not caring about the courtesy for a lady at all .

Hellen nodded and greeted him . “Oliver came . He is much better than me in space blockage . So, he is opening the Land of Truth . I’m here to see Evans’ paper . ”

She talked in secret messaging, in case the arcanists in the room were panicked .

Fernando raised the paper that he had yet to open, and they saw the long title:

‘A Relativistic Interpretation and Geometric Description of Gravity and a System of Relativity Under a More General Frame of Reference’ .

“The theory of relativity…” Hellen recalled that Lucien claimed that gravity would be included in the system . She did not expect that it would be completed so soon . ”

The two of them began to read the paper attentively .

Samantha, on the other hand, smiled and spoke to the magic circle before her . “Just now, our radio station was heisted by Benedict III, whose lies may have caused a certain range of panic . We apologize to all the sorcerers for our mistake . In the next moment, Mr . Lucien Evans will clarify what happened earlier to everyone . ”

All the arcanists in the room held their breath .

……

Inside the villa, Blake, who was still dwelling in the consecutive weather changes, suddenly heard the pleasant voice . He then realized that Miss Lark had resumed the livestream .

“What’s the Congress’ explanation on the matter? What will Mr . Evans say?”

Nervous and hopeful, he squatted next to the radio and listened to Lucien’s voice wholeheartedly: “What happened just now was the Church’s scheme . There’s nothing worth talking about . ”

Lucien was unaware of what was hidden in the conversation or the president’s actual circumstances . So, he merely dropped the subject .

However, Blake, as well as other arcanists before the radio, found it too unsatisfactory and unacceptable .

Raventi, in the headquarters of the Will of Elements, finally got Annonis’ answer and learnt that somebody’s cognitive world half-solidified . He was immediately relieved . Thankfully, it was not a disaster .

After he learnt the explanation about the matter, the president’s confusion about gravity returned to his head again, making him wonder the true nature of gravity . At this moment, Lucien’s clarification made him frown . It was too ambiguous . Was there really something wrong?

“There’s nothing worth talking about, because Benedict III’s questions do not necessarily depend on the First Cause . I have my own understanding about the nature of gravity . ”

What?

Raventi, Annonis, Blake and other sorcerers listening before the radio looked at the black box in shock, as if they were trying to directly see Lucien through it .

Inside the broadcast room, Samantha and the other arcanists were astounded, too . They only hoped that Lucien had done slightly deeper studies on gravity and did not expect that he would answer the ultimate question that overwhelmed Douglas just now . That was one of the greatest enigmas in the field of gravity!

Hellen furrowed her eyebrows . The equivalence principle and the general theory of relativity were easy to understand for her, but the geometric description later stunned her .

In confusion, she said to Fernando, “I know every word and every symbol, but I don’t know what they mean when they are connected…”

Fernando had trouble understanding it himself . “This is an application of Evans Geometry and the related tools of analysis . If you haven’t studied ‘Nature’ in the past three years, I fear that you will find it hard to understand the paper . ”

He had studied ‘Nature’ to check his student’s papers . That was why he could manage to follow the paper .

“You should know that I’ve been trying to melt the theory of gravity into the relativistic system and fix the problem that it cannot be extrapolated to all frames of reference . As a matter of fact, I completed the paper on the special theory of relativity a year ago, and I have been working on the problem since . It was a rather difficult journey, particularly when I realized that the previous geometric system could not describe the theory . It was not until I accidentally discovered that Evans Geometry and the related tools that I worked on could support the theoretical system perfect that I made a groundbreaking breakthrough . ”

Lucien’s unhurried speech eased the nervous arcanists such as Blake, who thought that he might have really found the nature of gravity .

“…When the theory based on the new geometry was about to take shape, I hit the bottleneck again as I couldn’t find the answers to many problems . It was not until I heard the conversation fabricated by Benedict III that I was inspired and perfected the final formulas . I have to thank my teacher Fernando, the Congress of Magic, and Benedict III, for helping me obtain the general theory of relativity and the explanation on the nature of gravity . ”

Most of the arcanists in the room were amused by Lucien’s words . Blake and other people smiled, too . Their previous confusion and loss were entirely gone .

Far away from Allyn, Kritonia listened to the electromagnetic signals that Benedict III intercepted and looked at him, who was flickering, in worry .

“Excellent . Well said . ” Benedict III said emotionless .
