"Congratulations, Mr.
Evans, you are the only low-level arcanist I know of who has passed the first two arcane papers."
Lucy's polite congratulations made Lucien's slightly ridiculous mood disappear, yes, in fact, it is a fortunate thing to be able to pass the review of the Arcane Review Committee, if it were not for the fact that the paper also attached his own experimental report on the re-determination of the atomic weight of some elements, maybe the gentleman in charge of the review would have typed the paper back when he saw that he had questioned several recognized correct atomic weights, and that would be the worst situation.
Now that the paper has passed the review, it's time to find a way to make it take center on your own.
This requires that the arcanist be able to discover new elements from the myriad of magical minerals according to his own description, and at the same time describe that aluminum-like elements can be found by spectral analysis, and silicon-like elements can be purified by alchemy reactions, and even the possible surnames of minerals have some hypotheses.
And if such an arcanist wants to appear, he must buy magic minerals for experiments, and at the same time, let more arcanists see that the larger the base of this paper, the more likely there are more arcanists to re-examine the strange magic ores in their hands according to the paper's guesses.
With such influence, the only ones who are willing to publish articles on elemental theory are Arcane Elemental Alchemy and Holm Magic Newspaper Camelot Arcane Theory, etc., and a little worse are the ordinary Arcanist Monthly.
As for the Arcane Discussion Newspaper and the Magic Research Monthly, they were not in Lucian's consideration, and their influence was too low.
Excluding the few journals that do not publish papers by people other than magicians who are not invited to do so, the only ones that Lucien can choose from are Arcane Elemental Alchemy and Ordinary Arcanist Monthly.
The best option was Arcane, but the hope was extremely slim, but Lucien was never one to give up without even trying, so he got up and took his leave: "Thank you, Lady Lucy, for your congratulations. ” After exiting the office, Lucien chatted with Cindy and Donna in the lobby of the Wizard Management Department, and inquired about the location of the Arcane Periodical Headquarters on the tenth floor, and then took the elevator in the hall of the Magic Tower to get there.
In the yellow-green light mask, the silver-gray disc slowly rose, and Lucien tried his best to watch calmly and vaguely expectantly as the figures of the magicians and apprentices coming and going in the hall became smaller and smaller.
As the elevator crossed the ninth floor, Lucien pressed his right hand into the yellow-green light, and it bloomed into a silver-gray disc.
After absorbing the fine light, the silver-gray disc suddenly shook slightly as it connected with the central hole in the fourth layer, and stopped, while the yellow-green light mask slowly cracked open a door-like opening.
Stepping out of the elevator, Lucien easily found the hall with the silver word "Arcane" written on it, following Cindy's description.
The hall is paved with bright floor tiles, which is magnificent, bright and quiet and elegant.
Walking up to a man and a woman in charge of the reception, Lucien politely asked, "Hello, I would like to know which gentleman I need to find if I submit to the Arcane Journal."
The man who had been talking to the beautiful lady carefully looked at the arcane and magic badge on Lucian's chest, his smile disappeared, and he asked solemnly, "May I ask this gentleman, is it your arcane paper, or your teacher's or friend's arcane paper?"
Both men and women wore arcane insignia with two silver stars on a black background, as well as nameplates with arcane words and their respective names written on them, but there were no magic insignia, and it seemed that everything here was dominated by arcane.
"Mr.
Gavin, it's my own paper that I want to submit to the Arcane Journal."
Lucien glanced at the man's nameplate, he had a name that was more popular than himself.
Gavin's expression became more serious, and he said in a businesslike manner: "I'm sorry, sir, the Arcane Journal does not accept submissions from low-level Arcanists. ” "Is it, why can't I find this in the rules of the Arcane Journal," Lucien was dismissed by him in a word, and brought up the regulations on the surface more seriously.
Gavin was a little annoyed, does this magician really don't know, or if he doesn't know this is an unwritten but true rule, can your paper compete with those high-level arcanists, or even the grand arcanists "It is true that some of the papers of the intermediate-level and low-level arcanists have been published in our journal, but they are all directly requested after they have been assessed as of great significance during the review.
There has never been an example of a low-level arcanist submitting a contribution to us and being included.
The lady, also named Heidi, was worried that Lucien was the kind of stubborn and rigid magician who was more honest to the end, so she explained it a little politely.
Her fears were soon "confirmed", and Lucien reluctantly said: "There was no precedent before, it does not mean that there is no now, and there will be no in the future."
As long as it doesn't violate the rules, why don't you accept my submission.
If the manuscript is rejected by Mr.
Arcanist after submission, it is because the standard of my own paper is not enough, and it is rejected in accordance with the regulations, and I have no opinion. ” "Mr.
Magician, you give me the Arcane Papers, and I'll send them to the Arcanist's Office for Review.
Today is the fourth day of the month, and there are not many new papers except for the papers that were confirmed for the next issue last month, and I think the results of the review will be available soon.
Gavin spoke faster, his annoyance palpant, as if he wanted to get rid of the madman's uncommunicative magician as soon as possible.
Lucien handed him the paper in his hand, "Please, Mr.
Gavin." ” Gavin took Lucian's paper and entered a corridor in the back, and when he reached a place where no one was around, he began to read it carefully.
The idea in his mind was that if he couldn't be sure of the value of the paper, he would really send it to the office of the reviewing arcanists and let them evaluate it, and if he could confirm it, there would be no need to disturb a few high-level arcanist gentlemen, lest he be scolded.
When he first looked at it, Gavin was still very serious, because the periodic surname law described was so obvious, and the quality of those surnames was similar to terrifying, but looking at it, he sneered: "How can the atomic weight of the Temilik element still be wrong, and only a few years ago, a few high-level arcanists used several different methods to re-measure the value that was corrected.
If such a paper can also pass the review of the review committee, it must be two gentlemen who gave it to their newly recruited students for review."
The Temirik element is a strange element that makes up the soul.
Without looking any further, Gavin came back directly and returned the paper to Lucian: "This gentleman, the auditor scolds me harshly.
Because your paper is full of errors and omissions, and it has no value for inclusion at all, he even doubts how you passed the committee's review."
Lucien bared his teeth, unable to find any signs of continuing to persevere, so he returned to the first floor with the paper, and then commissioned a messenger with a head and a hawk body to deliver the submission letter containing the paper to the headquarters of the Lentat Elemental Journal.
As Gavin had said, the journals were not busy reviewing at the beginning of the month, and on the third day after they were sent, the letter returned by the Elemental Journals was delivered to Lucian's Garden Villa at Douglas School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
It happened to be Saturday afternoon, and Lucien saw the letter coming, and after casually assigning a few questions, he ignored the distorted expressions of Reilia and Heidi and walked aside to open the envelope.
"Dear Mr.
Lucien Evans, Your paper has some discussion value, but early next month there will be an annual conference on elemental and alchemical magic in Lentat, where the Elemental Will and the Royal Magic Court of Holm will be held, and we have confirmed that all the papers presented at the conference will be included, so we are sorry not to publish your paper.

All the Elements and Alchemist's Friends Elemental Journal January 6, 817 Lucien looked at the letter silently: "It seems that this is the legendary rejection letter, to put it mildly, if you really want to publish it, you can propose to arrange the paper in the next issue."
However, such a refusal is indeed polite and not too hurtful. ” Thinking of the successive setbacks he suffered after the New Year, Lucien carefully examined his main star of destiny and found that it was still vague, neither better nor worse: "The fortune has not changed, could it be that after arriving in Alinge, due to various reasons, I couldn't write to Natasha and John, so my character became negative."
After laughing at himself, Lucien was not too affected by the fact that he assigned a practice paper to Annick, Sprint and other apprentices, and then went to the headquarters of the Magic Council to submit the article to the alchemy journal.
This time, the review speed was much slower, and it was only after nearly two weeks that Lucien could not find a new element when Lucien had purchased a full two hundred arcane points of magic ore that matched his description and failed to find a new element.
It's a pity that it's still a rejection letter, and the tone is not elemental polite, directly pointing out the problem of the atomic weight in it, and asking Lucian not to throw it again.
Lucien, who was holding the rejection letter, was a little nervous, if he couldn't publish it in the journal at the end of this month, he would have to wait for the end of next month, and the feedback from the arcanists would have to be postponed for another one or two months, and the longer it was, the more dangerous it became.
However, Lucien calmly rode in a carriage to the Aringe-based monthly Arcanist Magazine, where he submitted his paper directly to its "review department".
To Lucien's surprise, four days later, instead of a rejection letter or an acceptance notice, he received an invitation from a fourth-level arcanist named Woods.
Ordinary Arcanist Monthly Headquarters, in a brightly lit office.
"Actually, I'm one of the reviewers of your bat experiment paper, Evans, and I sent the letter of request."
Woods, with his golden mustache, leaned back in his chair and looked at Lucien with his hands clasped and a smile.
Lucien, who was on the other side of the desk, took his black top hat and said sincerely, "Thank you, Mr.
Woods, for your very high opinion, otherwise it would be difficult for my thesis to be read by His Excellency the Grand Arcanist." ” "That would be a loss for the entire Magical Council.
Lord Stormmaster has constructed the prototypes of three magical forms: the Eye of Lightning, Fernando's Lightning Furnace, and the Invisible Crematorium, which are very magical and the latter two are also extremely powerful.
It's just that the spell model is still very complicated now, and it takes seven or eight rings to construct and release, and he is slowly trying to simplify it. ” Due to the fact that the papers published in the monthly Arcanist were cited by the Grand Arcanist and had excellent results, Woods, who made the decision to evaluate and request the manuscript, received great praise and reward, and had a good opinion of Lucian.
Lucien said modestly, "This is all the inspiration of His Excellency the Grand Arcanist.
By the way, Mr.
Woods, you have invited me to come over to discuss the publication of my present paper."
"Yes, I've read Evans' paper on you, it's very interesting and it's worth discussing.
Without these bold speculations, it would have been a compelling paper. ” Woods pointed to the paper spread out in front of him, and implicitly said that he did not agree with some of the atomic weight corrections, so he was not very optimistic about other predictions, "Even so, I think it has the value of inclusion and can open up the thinking of ordinary arcanists, but today is the twenty-second day, and the issue of papers released at the end of the month is already full, if Evans you don't mind, I want to arrange it for the next issue, do you agree?"
He apparently decided to publish the paper because of his affection for Lucian, and invited Lucien to tell him in person so that he could know why and understand who he needed to be grateful for.
There is no guarantee that when Lucien grows up, he will not be accepted as a student by His Excellency the Storm Juggernaut who has an impression of him, although there is little hope, but it is worth investing a small amount of unimportant resources.
The next issue Lucien hesitated.
