449 The Past Week In Allyn (2/2)
Lark did not take in Morris's words easily. ”I'm afraid this isn't convincing enough, sir. Mr. Ulysses won the thirty-first Holm Crown prize ring with his paper on measuring electron charge, and Mr. Lucien Evans's discovery is of the same great value, isn't it?
”… In some of the letters, some arcanists believe that it was you who prevented Mr. Lucien Evans from winning Holm Crown prize one more time, sir, since he has already won the prize three times. They are suspecting that you see giving the award to Mr. Evans again as a waste of money and resources. Facing these rumors, do you wish to clarify yourself, Mr. Morris?”
”This is a totally absurd and groundless accusation. Openness, fairness, and impartiality have always been our principles when deciding the winners. Evans was also present during the discussion. He didn't have any problem.” Morris sounded offended, and then he paused a bit. ”Time's up. I will answer no more questions. And I will not attend such absurd interviews anymore, unless you show more 'sincerity' when making the appointment.”
Blake wondered why Morris sounded a bit self-conscious.
”… Alright, that's all for our review of last Wednesday. Now, let's take a look at what happened last Thursday.
”… Frictions took place again between the Congress's patrolling magic steamboat and the Saint Truth's airship. As we're getting closer to locating the mysterious dimension, the number of frictions is continuously increasing. We must be prepared.
”After the downfall of the ancient Magic Empire, countless sorcerers suffered day and night under the brutal hegemony of the Church and were almost erased from the ground. Fortunately, the establishment of the Congress reversed the trend. Therefore, the confrontation is irreconcilable. Every sorcerer should bear this in mind. Any attempts trying to ingratiate himself with both sides are beyond foolish.
”We shall retreat no more. Behind our back is Allyn!”
…
”… Leading almost a hundred elementalists and necromancers, Mr. Donald, the member of the Highest Council, the president of the Will of Elements, recently paid a visit to the royal elf court and the Druid Elders of Stroop forest. Elder Malfurion offered Mr. Donald and his companies a warm welcome. Both sides exchanged opinions on recent situations and issues and reached an agreement. Together they attended the grand ceremony Spring Sowing, which took place in the manor close to Stroop forest and where Jinkela No. 822 first revealed its veil in front of people.
”The Lord of Storm, member of the Highest Council, has submitted his paper on his experimentation using helium atomic beams to bombard a thin foil of metal. Some particles in this experiment scattered further than others. Based on this finding, the Lord of Storm has overturned the atom structure model proposed by Her Excellency Hathaway, in which electrons are believed to be inlaid in the atomic nucleus. According to His Excellency Fernando, the inner structure of an atom should resemble the celestial bodies motion system suggested by Mr. Douglas, the president of the Congress, that is, electrons spinning around the atomic nucleus like planets around the sun. The macroworld has overlapped with the micro!”
Blake suddenly sat up straight out of astonishment.
The tiny atom's inner structure was similar to the system of the entire universe! How amazing and wonderful this world was! Fernando's theory again brought out the aesthetics of science! Blake could not help wondering if there was a universe within each atom and whether if there were also life forms living there. He knew that the theory of Magic Fairy was once very popular in the ancient Magic Empire.
The truth of the world was beyond fascinating!
”… On the other hand, His Excellency Edwyn Brook, the Emperor of Control, member of the Highest Council, has also put forward that since the electrons are charged, when they spin around a nucleus, they should radiate out electromagnetic waves. Due to this loss of energy, the structure can never exist with stability…”
Blake put some thoughts into it and then nodded, as it did conform to the classic electromagnetism theory. He was a bit disappointed.
”… The Lord of Storm also said that this is so far just a rough model, and improvements have to be made for sure. But most elementalists believe that even the current rough model has already qualified the Lord of Storm for being the next winner of Holm Crown prize in the following year.”

”Saturday, reliable source confirmed that the Emperor of Control, who returned a year and a half ago, has finished his project of improving the magic circle for accurately measuring light quantum. Meanwhile, Mr. Lauren, member of Arcana Review Board and the winner of Ice & Snow Medal and Silver Moon Medal, has also told us that the same achievement has been made by him after three years of effort. Soon he will fight back against Mr. Evans's light quantum hypothesis using the experiment result…
”According to our survey, arcanists who advocate the wave theory are getting very excited, while many arcanists on the side of the particle theory are worrying about what will be coming to them and have refused to further respond to our questions.”
