In another office not far from Gallon's office, several mages were looking at the jury member who was twitching on the ground. This was Colon Francois, a fourth-ring mage. He had a magic ring pinned to the collar of his mage robe. Silver Moon Badge, this is the symbol of the pure-blood faction.
The Pure Blood Sect is inherited from ancient magic. It is an organization left by blood mages among modern mages. These mages advocate the purity of blood and believe that teaching magic to non-magic families is a sacrilegious act. Occasionally, extreme Pure Blood Sect mages will do so. They are punished for committing crimes, but because most pure-blood families have a long history and are relatively peaceful, the Parliament acquiesces to the existence of these people.
Corresponding to the pure-blood party is the mystical party, a group of people who believe that magic should remain mysterious to be powerful. These are not mentioned for the time being.
I saw the normally young and energetic jury member in front of me. At this moment, the magic power in his body was flowing backwards, bursting blood vessels one after another in his body. No one dared to rush forward to rescue him, because the violent magic power was very likely to It affects oneself and triggers a series of dangers.
"Get out of the way."
Until Fleming hurried over, he stretched out a hand and grabbed Cologne's shoulder, and Peiran's magic power was immediately poured into it, trying to suppress the surging turbulence.
But it was too late. Unlike the storm that had not yet started in Gallona, there was a tsunami that had already formed in the mage's body at this moment. Even if Fleming tried his best, it would be difficult to stop it.
"ah-"
With a scream, countless blood flowers bloomed on Cologne's body, staining the wool carpet and the entire office red. He finally stopped shaking and lay on the ground, as if there was no sound.
Fleming slowly stood up and sighed.
"I tried my best but could barely save his life. It's a pity."
The magic power has left an indelible mark on Cologne's body. In terms of appearance, this originally handsome young man will probably have to wear a hood to hide his distorted face. From a magic point of view, his face has been disturbed by magic power. The body that has been destroyed will probably never be able to use magic again.
In other words, a fourth-ring mage ended his magical career.
"Send him to the hospital and notify his teachers and family."
After receiving the order, several mages immediately lifted the dying Cologne and sent him to the hospital. Fleming looked around the office and found no trace of malicious spells, and finally rested his eyes on the table.
It was a half-read, blood-stained paper.
Fleming came to the table, turned the pages of the paper using the simple spell of mage's hand instead of using his hands, and saw the title of the paper.
"Properties of the two new elements "Ocles" and "Hydra" obtained by electrolysis of water and analysis of their compounds, as well as several conjectures about combustion theory", author: Rainer Ian Gray.
Rainer Iain Gray!
Fleming still remembered the last paper that questioned the combustion theory. Unexpectedly, less than a month later, the other party submitted a new paper.
And the title looks so scary.
He actually decomposed water, one of the four basic elements. Following the combustion theory, will he try to shake the cornerstone of the entire alchemical system this time
Fleming did not open the paper rashly, because he had already vaguely realized that his student Gallon almost suffered a cognitive breakdown because of reading this paper, and the unlucky Cologne Francois just now, It must have been that the content of the paper disturbed my already solidified cognition, and that was why I ended up in that situation.
Thinking of this, Fleming discovered another problem. According to convention, each paper should be reviewed by three reviewers. Now that two of them have been found, is the third one also in danger of cognitive collapse
"Go and find out who the reviewer assigned to this paper is and ask him to stop reviewing it immediately."
Fleming commanded the swaying crystal worms, hoping to prevent another tragedy from happening again.
The obviously larger crystal worm flickered, and after a while it spoke angrily.
"The reviewers assigned to this paper are Gallon Arrasso, Colon Francois, and Bister Ravel."
"Bister Ravel? Take me to his office."
Fleming's behavior made the mages watching in the corridor feel a little strange. They didn't know what happened, but they still consciously made way for the sixth-ring mage to pass.
Fortunately, this mage tower is basically occupied by mages related to the alchemy department. Bister Ravel's office is on the fifth floor downstairs.
This lucky guy was still taking a break to enjoy black tea. The dangerous paper was sitting beside his desk and had not yet been opened. When Fleming pushed the door open and entered, Bicester almost spit out his breath.
"Uh, sir, I'm not, I didn't..."
He tried to argue, thinking that Fleming was here to check on the police.
You know, Bister only submitted the written application documents to join the Mercury Balance two days ago. This is his third application.
The Mercury Scale has a high status in the minds of mages who specialize in the alchemy department, because the Mercury Scale is the organization founded by Mr. Hohenheim. Although Mr. Hohenheim is no longer the leader due to his identity, he can become a member of the Mercury Scale. Becoming a member is still the biggest dream of these alchemists.
So at first, Bist thought that Fleming had recognized him and came to inspect. When he secretly screamed that it was terrible, he found that the alchemist master's attention did not seem to be on him.
"Have you not started reviewing the paper today?"
Fleming asked. Since Bister seemed to be fine, he must not have started reviewing the paper.
"Well, I plan to start as soon as I finish this cup of tea, my lord."
Bist was stunned, and the feeling of being caught being lazy came to his heart, making him want to find a hole in the ground and crawl into it.
"That's good."
Unexpectedly, Fleming nodded slightly, and then picked up a paper on his desk with a mage's hand.
"The review process of this paper has been terminated and will be handed over to the higher-level review committee. I have submitted an application to the review committee and you can check it later."
It is against the rules to take away unreviewed papers at will, so Fleming has written a simple application during the process of going here, which also transfers the authority to review papers from the three junior reviewers to the superiors. Level one.
In fact, Fleming is still preparing to pass it to a higher level, because he now feels that perhaps only high-level mages can read this paper completely without causing cognitive collapse. If necessary, he will use mercury With the authority of the balance, I request the assistance of that hon.
After Fleming finished explaining, he hurriedly left, leaving Bicester with a baffled face, messy in the wind.
