The Primordial Wizard

"If it hadn't been for Master Ace and Alan's suggestion, maybe I would have been lying on the ground like Tautis, turning into a cold headless corpse, and I would be worse than him. I don't even have a wife and children."

The bachelor Blue let out mixed sighs of gratitude, fear, and sympathy, and his thoughts gradually became firmer, maybe the basic path needs to be changed!

The next day, the shadow crow smashed the glass of Alan's house, waking him up from his sleep. Alan didn't get up, but drowsily chanted the spell "open the window", the glass window opened immediately, and a thick roll The magic paper slammed on his bed, and the crow croaked and flew away.

"The latest issue of the newspaper has arrived."

Allen rubbed his sleepy eyes, unfolded a roll of magic paper and a few words came into view, "Supplement to the High Tower Weekly", a passage came into view.

"The affinity of matter, and consequently the phenomena of nature, seem to depend for the most part on the motions and mechanisms of the minute constituents of objects which we cannot observe.

Bodies differ only by the way in which their common matter is composed... So, according to the repulsion and interaction of the individual constituents of matter, bodies of one name or another are produced. "

Allen rubbed his eyes. This hypothesis looks beautiful, but the four-element hypothesis also looks beautiful, and conjectures that lack experimental evidence are doubtful.

Overnight, the entire high-level territory seemed to have been attacked, and senior wizard apprentices were shot one after another. Even if they did psychological construction, there were many senior wizard apprentices who did not disintegrate the basic spell model in advance like Bruce. Because it was difficult to accept the new theory, the soul secret space was broken and solidified, and the future was completely lost.

"Have the statistics come out?"

Ace suddenly appeared on the top floor of the high platform outside the city and asked Leon who was on duty.

Seeing Ace, Leon subconsciously stood up and bowed at forty-five degrees. This is a habit he has developed as the first political officer for many years.

"Master Ace, the release of this new theory has caused a total of fifty-one senior wizard apprentices' basic spell models to explode, and the soul secret space to shatter to death, and the soul secret space of one hundred and twenty senior wizard apprentices to shatter and solidify. The wizard was hit hard."

Ace sighed after hearing Leon's words.

"Magic has developed to a new stage. Perhaps every theoretical breakthrough in the future will create a large number of headless corpses. The innovation of magic theory may have to step on the corpses of old theories to reach a new level.

How is Betty doing? "

Listening to Ace's words, Leon felt a little uneasy in his heart. He is actually not a serious research wizard. He has little talent and hard work in theory, and more is the unique doom series of spells. Research.

"Betty's current situation has stabilized. Her fire element series spell model has disintegrated, and the soul storage space has suffered some trauma, but fortunately it can be repaired, and it should not affect future development."

Meanwhile, Betty's place.

The pale Betty pulled up her twin ponytails casually, and started her experiment.

"If it is said that the fire element does not exist, then there should be a new explanation for the phenomenon of combustion. Our combustion is all under the condition of air. The four elements say that there is wind to help the fire. If we do not recognize the four elements, it does not mean that Air is not recognized.

Olly once did an experiment, using a U-shaped tube and a glass tube filled with mercury, to prove that air can be compressed and diluted,

The volume of the gas is inversely proportional to the pressure, that is to say, the air itself is a kind of medium, and the combustion phenomenon exists in the air environment, if..."

Betty prepared a sealed bell jar, placed a hot red hot iron plate under the bell jar, and used an air pump to suck out the air in the bell jar.

The neck of the bell uses a fixture to drop the combustible substance onto the hot plate. The combustible substance prepared by Betty is sulfur. The sulfur is poured on the hot plate, but there is only smoke but no fire.

Betty unplugged the vent on the bell jar, and various small sparks appeared, including sulfur-blue flames.

"When the air is evacuated, I call it a vacuum. In a vacuum state, it seems that it cannot burn, but more experiments are needed to be sure."

Betty also experimented with several combustible substances, all of which were similar to sulfur, but when she experimented with black powder, she got a very wonderful result. The gunpowder powder falling on the hot plate in the vacuum burned slowly and did not explode. .

"It's so strange that a wide blue flame, like a sulfur flame, can continue to burn for such a long time. It can burn, but there is no explosion. Why is there such a strange phenomenon?"

Betty frowned, and she continued to test the gunpowder. She covered the gunpowder powder with a sealed glass bell jar and heated the gunpowder with a magnifying glass. All of a sudden it was burned.

"Could it be that the saltpeter crystals used to make gunpowder are mixed with air? Otherwise, how to explain this phenomenon."

Betty lost her elegant ladylike state, she scratched her head unconsciously, her hair had turned into a chicken coop, she thought for a while, and decided to re-prepare saltpeter crystals in a vacuum environment.

This kind of saltpeter crystals can ensure that there is no air, but the result is the same. Gunpowder can still burn in a vacuum environment, but there is no explosion.

"Substances mixed with saltpeter can burn even in places where there is no air. Heating saltpeter can produce sparking vapor similar to air!"

Betty stopped the experiment. She unfolded a roll of magic paper and wrote the title "A New Experiment on the Relationship between Fire and Air" on it.

Betty clarified the purpose, design, process and conclusion of the experiment in detail, and at the end she wrote:

"Air is the universal solvent for all sulphurous bodies; the dissolution proceeds with a great deal of heat, which we call fire; and the dissolution is produced by a substance inherently mixed with air, which is related to the substance fixed in the saltpeter. In this process of dissolving objects, some of them are combined and mixed or dissolved and transformed into air, and float and sink with it.

We may suppose that, by virtue of the presence of something in the air which is also present in the saltpeter, it dissolves the combustible body itself, and that the heat given off is the heat of solution, analogous to the heat given off by the dissolution of such substances as potassium carbonate and sulfuric acid in water. "

Betty wrapped the paper carefully, opened the magic book and clicked a few times. About ten minutes later, a shadow crow flew to the window of Betty's house and slapped the window glass.

Betty released the enchantment magic on the window, and the shadow crow penetrated the glass and appeared directly in the room. It transformed from a shadow into a vivid black feather crow with its mouth wide open.

Betty stuffed the wrapped scroll into the crow's mouth, and watched the crow turn into a shadow and fly to the high platform outside the city with expectant eyes.
