Chapter 575

Hearing what Benedict III said, Kritonia said after a brief silence, “Your Holiness, I will assist ‘Original Fire’ in secret as a way to answer for my sins when I was tricked by Sard . I hope that the Church could send someone to rescue the main members of my family . ”

‘Original Fire’ was the legendary class of ‘Night Executioner’ . The South Church preferred to address the night watchers by their nicknames, and the outsiders preferred their class name .

“I have already felt your repentance . I believe that the Lord will be happy about that, too . When the situation is less intense, I’ll ask Vaharall to sent night watchers to help your family . By then, I will grant you the title of duke again with a fief near the Holy City . ” Said Benedict III peacefully .

Kritonia was a level-three legendary expert, but he was too eye-catching, and Rentato was watched over by Hathaway, Davey, Winston and other legendary experts in turns . Not far away, it was Allyn, the main base of the Congress of Magic . It was more difficult for him to save anyone than it was for the regular night watchers . He even suspected that Natasha imprisoned the main members of his family exactly to allure him to save them . Chances were that the most dangerous traps had been set up there, and he would be collectively attacked by a lot of legendary sorcerers . Therefore, he had to ask for the help of other forces and wait out the enemy’s wariness .

So, having got the pope’s promise, Kritonia smiled . “Your benevolence is remarkable . ”

“With you working together with ‘Night Executioner’, I can already see Lucien Evans’ ending . However, he will definitely be thoroughly protected by the Congress of Magic . You must be careful . A living legendary expert is much more important than a dead one . ” Benedict III expressed his concerns for Kritonia and then remarked with mixed feelings, “There probably won’t be any greater achievement in this operation . You will hide in the northland for now . I’ll ask the Night Executioner to contact you . ”

He, on the other hand, intended to return to the Holy City and completely ban magic radios for a while .

Until today, although he had recognized the radio stations’ guidance in thinking, he did not expect it to be powerful . If the ordinary believers listened to it all the time, they would deviate from their faith and fall into hell .

However, Benedict III knew that it could not be banned forever . The nobles, after being less restrained, would definitely chase after the luxury entertainment . Therefore, he was thinking to establish the Church’s own radio station and set up divine power circles to monitor electromagnetic signals .

Kritonia grew solemn . “Yes, Your Holiness . ”

The shadow in his hands were gone, replaced by vague spots of light .

Looking at the spots, Kritonia sighed . Before, legendary knights were highly autonomous about missions and commands, and he wouldn’t have needed to do anything to eliminate a eighth-circle sorcerer . However, when one step went wrong, all the steps that followed went wrong…

“I have to establish my own brightness on this path…” Kritonia turned around and left .

……

Inside the villa at the suburb of Allyn…

As a member of the Atom Institution, Blake understood the value of neutrons perfectly . It meant that the internal model of atoms constructed by the new alchemy was fundamentally valid, and that the sorcerers who were good at elements would embrace a golden age . It was like Mr . Blake turned the school of electromagnetics from an insignificant field into one of the four most powerful schools within the Congress of Magic after he founded the classic electromagnetic system .

“The discovery of neutrons fortifies the existence of particles . After a legendary sorcerer modifies the meditation of photons based on that, my spiritual particle and my soul will soar… As a matter of fact, there’s already hope that I will advance into the third-circle very soon . ” Blake thought to himself excitedly .

After Raventi, Gaston, Chloe and Lacie Carter proposed the random molecular movement of liquid and explained the nature of the phenomenon, the question of whether atoms existed had been determined, which made the sorcerers of the school of elements such as Blake improve more or less .

Ding, ding, ding . Something was ringing in his pocket . Blake hurried to take out the mobile communication item and pressed the button at the center .

“Hey, Blake, did you listen to Mr . Evans’ speech just now?” Alfalia asked, her voice shivering .

Blake replied, equally unable to control his feelings . “I did . It’s truly a night of miracles tonight! Two revolutionary theoretical systems have been established!”

“Don’t be so rash . Although the relativistic system can be proved by phenomena, it only means that the conclusion is correct and does not suggest that the procedures to reach the conclusion are so, until the Arcana Review Board examines it . Of course, I personally would like to believe in the explanation about the nature of gravity . ” Alfalia tried to make herself sound calm, but she still expressed her admiration in the end .

In his excitement, Blake became straightforward and talkative . He chuckled, “I’m very suspicious that the good sirs of the Arcana Review Board can understand the paper . It may require the grand arcanists to review . ”

“I think so, too . Mr . Evans’ basic introduction was already incomprehensible to me… Hu, I can’t wait to confirm the existence of neutrons myself tomorrow…” Alfalia retained the basic rationally and knew she had to confirm the experiment in person . Because of her level, she did not have the advanced facilities such as cyclotron in her house .

Reminded by her, Blake also looked at the Allyn magic tower passionately . “I don’t think I can sleep tonight… After neutrons are proved, there will be three pillars in the field of arcana: Brook’s electromagnetism, Evans’ relativistic system that includes Mr . President’s theories, and the new alchemy…”

“Yes . We need to call him His Excellency Evans now, though . ” Alfalia smiled .

Blake replied, his voice drifting, “Yes, His Excellency Evans!”

……

Because they were on a high floor in the magic tower, Lucien and Samantha soon noticed the weather changes in Rentato .

“Disorder of elements, shadow of atom model… Is it Raventi, Donald or Morris?” Fernando dropped the paper and walked to the window .

In Rentato, they were the only three archmages in the field of elements whose cognitive world bordered on half-solidification .

Lucien also stood next to his teacher and smiled, “Whoever it is, it is a success of the Congress . ”

That being said, Lucien secretly hoped that it was Raventi or Morris .

“It’s also your success . The existence of neutrons must’ve been proved . ” Hellen’s voice was brisk but not indifferent, as if she were embracing a snow in warm clothes .

She believed that whether it was Raventi, Donald or Morris, they must’ve tested it many times in person before they accepted the existence of neutrons and changed their cognitive world with it .

Now that two grand arcanists were talking, Samantha could only congratulate him with her eyes . The discovery of neutrons and the confirmation of the new alchemy would mean another Holm Crown Ring, but it did not matter . What mattered was that Lucien Evans would be given the glorious title of grand arcanist after tomorrow!

“Congratulations, Mr . Evans . ” Samantha said to herself quietly .

After the weather changes stopped, Fernando said to Lucien, “Come to Hellen’s library with me . ”

Lucien nodded and followed the two grand arcanists into Hellen’s library . Then he saw Oliver who was trying to break the blockage .

He nodded in greetings . “Congratulations, Lucien, a new grand arcanist!”

Then, he said with a smile of relief, “Your explanation has ended the panic . Also, I’ve sensed that Mr . President is trying to open the demiplane from inside . It’s obvious that he did not seclude himself voluntarily, and there must’ve been other problems with the conversation . With the assistance of the other few legends, perhaps, it will only take a day and a half to cancel the blockage of the Land of Truth . ”

Hearing that the president was alive, and the demiplane was blocked by the Church, Lucien heaved a long sight in relief . Hellen and Fernando were more or less pacified, too .

“Perhaps, your general theory of relativity will help Douglas find his path to becoming a demigod, but I fear that he’ll have to start reading ‘Nature’ . ” After Fernando was relaxed, he immediately began to joke around . Then, he said before Lucien replied, “The discovery of neutrons proves the correctness of the new alchemy . Although there may be parts that require modification and improvement, it won’t stop you from being acknowledged as a grand arcanist or obtaining a legendary item of the Congress . ”

Every paradigm-shifting theoretical system meant the title of grand arcanist . So, the reward of legendary items seemed to be specifically for the grand arcanists .

“Can I choose one tomorrow?” Lucien revealed his obsession with money .

Fernando shook his head . “The Highest Council reached a consensus a long time ago that you would be given the title of grand arcanist for the new alchemy as long as neutrons were discovered . After Hellen proves your experiment, the treasury of the Congress will be opened for your selection . You sabotaged Benedict III’s scheme and revealed the value of the new alchemy . I fear that he will send legendary experts to deal with you . So, if you get a legendary item sooner, your safety can be better ensured . ”

“Okay . ” Lucien would certainly not turn down such an offer .

Fernando went on . “Your general theory of relativity will be reviewed by me and other arcanists who can understand it . It will be another paradigm-shifting achievement if there’s nothing wrong, and it can also be traded for a legendary item . However, I suggest you choose the ritual of ‘Origin of Magic’ instead of an item . ”

He was thinking to invite the Prophet and other Tower arcanists who were adept at mathematics to review it together with himself and Douglas .

“What’s that ritual?” Lucien had never heard of the ritual before . It seemed to be only limited to the Highest Council .

Fernando nodded his head . “You will naturally enter the Highest Council after you become a grand arcanist . So, it doesn’t hurt to tell you in advance . This ritual of ‘Origin of Magic’ provides assistance for the ritual of legendary advancement . It requires the guidance of spiritual power of six legendary sorcerers, in cooperation with rare materials that are as precious as what legendary items are made of, and it is designed for the ninth-circle archmages whose spiritual power is not enough to make a breakthrough . Every such ritual will reduce the inventory of the Congress by one fifth . ”

“Your cognitive world has half solidified, and you have a legendary class that is close to 100% match and legendary magic models that are engraved to your cognitive world . There will be high hopes for you to make an advancement with this ritual after you advance into the ninth circle . After you become a legendary sorcerer, it will be terribly difficult to kill you, and you won’t have to be chained to Allyn or Rentato without being able to go anywhere . ”

“You can stabilize your achievements with this incident . In two to three years, after you advance into the ninth circle, you will need the magic ritual to help you . ”

Because Lucien had been advancing fast and did not have a solid foundation, Fernando believed that it wouldn’t be safe for his student to try to advance into legendary until at least ten years after he advanced into the ninth circle . Many accidents might happen during such a long period .

Lucien grimaced . “Master, I am already in the ninth circle . ”

Huh? Fernando thought that his ears had deceived him . Hellen and Oliver turned around and looked at him, too .
