As Lynn, the illustrious star of magic, arrived, the assembly of wizards gathered around made way, especially the familiar grand wizards like Raphael, who eagerly stepped forward to greet him.
"Master Lynn, our star of magic, any progress in your recent research on elental construction and new elents?" Raphael inquired with a wide grin.
"I've had so minor breakthroughs," Lynn replied casually. "I'm aiming to harness this new elent for spellcasting, but there's one crucial obstacle I haven't overco yet."
He had delved into research for three days and was only a step away. His attendance at this gathering was to harness the collective power of the wizards to achieve this!
"Developing new magic isn't sothing rushed!" Raphael reassured with a smile. "Your electromagnetic separation of elents was brilliant, extracting two new elents from the devil stone. That alone rits a Morning Star dal."
When the devil stone was brought to the council, several grand wizards imdiately tested it. They discovered this peculiar elent couldn't be decomposed by the Advanced Material Deconstruction spell. Even the council couldn't replicate or mimic it.
This revelation ignited the entire wizard community, escalating the council's interest in this new elent.
Whoever could detach new elents from the devil stone and analyze their properties would have the honor of naming the new elents—a feat worthy of history books, even more prestigious than a Morning Star dal!
However, just as they were about to comnce research, news arrived that Lynn, the star of the wizarding realm, had used electromagnetic separation to extract two elents from the devil stone, nad Uranium and Radium, and conducted initial data tests.
Upon hearing this, Raphael and others were flabbergasted.
"Just one day, how is that even possible?"
Are we left with no room to maneuver?
So, when they learned that Master Lynn hadn't made significant breakthroughs in the research on new elents, the wizards present breathed a sigh of relief. Their biggest concern was their research coinciding with the star magician's. That would render their efforts in vain.
"Master Raphael, it seems your recent research has made so progress," Lynn naturally noticed Raphael's pleased expression, indicating a new discovery.
"Indeed, while it may not match your elent separation technique, I believe it's enough to stir up so new trends..." Raphael said, sowhat smugly.
Earning a Morning Star dal with one's research was a breeze. Perhaps even a windfall, solving the problem of insufficient research funding.
"Well, congratulations!" Lynn congratulated with a smile.
"It's rely luck," Raphael waved modestly, not elaborating further but teasingly holding back, intending to steal the spotlight during the discussion.
Amidst mutual praise and eager discussions, Lynn maneuvered through the crowd to the front rows—the exclusive seats for grand wizards, undoubtedly securing the first spot!
"Everyone, let's quiet down for a mont," Harof, presiding over the eting, cleared his throat. His booming voice resonated throughout the eting hall.
The bustling atmosphere gradually subsided. The wizards turned their attention to Harof, anticipating the agenda ahead.
"It's been a week since our last discussion on elental divisibility, and about three to four days since the discovery of new elents. I assu you all have so results by now," Harof surveyed the room and continued, "This isn't a formal academic conference. Anyone can freely express their thoughts, even untested academic theories or educated guesses are welco..."
Seven days were still a bit short. Constructing a comprehensive theory in this ti was challenging. Hence, Harof lowered the expectations for this symposium, encouraging everyone to speak freely. Even so speculation might serve as inspiration for others.
If it weren't for the urgent need to find breakthroughs in these aspects, Harof wouldn't have been this eager.
He had received confidential reports suggesting movent within the Holy Church. Another war seed imminent. They had already leaked too much information about new weapons; this ti, the other side would surely be prepared.
Harof sighed inwardly, but he didn't let his worries show. He swiftly called upon a junior wizard to present their theory.
It was also a way of taking care of the newcors, providing more opportunities for lower-ranked junior wizards. Because the research topic was limited to the internal structure of elents and new elents, so overlap in research findings was unavoidable.
With the power of grand wizards, deeper research was often possible, and they could offer supplentary information later. But if it were the other way around, most junior wizards might not even get a chance to speak.
A young witch in her twenties ascended the platform. After bowing to the council and the grand wizards, she nervously began, "Esteed council mbers, my research revolves around the properties of Uranium. Through experints, I've discovered that this new elent reacts with boiling water and steam, producing a dark brown crystal with potent toxicity. When broken down into powder, it even poses a risk of spontaneous combustion..."
As she spoke, the witch displayed the peculiar crystalline substance wrapped in cloth and repeated the experint before the audience.
The wizards in the assembly looked at the experint, discussing among themselves. Many weren't surprised by the toxicity of Uranium compounds; several had already experinted with it. That might be why this substance was nad the devil stone.
Wearing sothing so highly toxic regularly would undoubtedly have an effect.
After the witch finished, applause erupted in the assembly. Though her findings were basic and nothing particularly exceptional, considering the limited ti, verifying these aspects was already comndable.
Moreover, the devil stone brought by Yoland was only about the size of half a fist, divided into more than twenty parts.
Every grand wizard remaining in the capital received a sample, and the remaining pieces were given to several officially recognized wizards with strong research talents.
Each sample varied in size; the higher the rank, the larger the sample received. For instance, Lynn's sample wasn't much smaller than the portions received by several council mbers, while the officially recognized wizards received samples no larger than the size of a pinky finger...
