Chapter 20: Review
Chapter 20: Review
"You mean, that Reiner Ian Gray found Antoine?"
In Prester City, dozens of miles away from Luna Nova Magical Academy, in an extremely luxurious office, a man whose hair was slicked back put down his tobacco pipe and stared at Sanderson with sharp eyes. It made this thin guy couldn't help but shudder all over.
"Yes, Master Piram, they seem to have reached an agreement. I have asked someone to keep an eye on the old street these past two days. Antoine is indeed producing something."
Sanderson didn't dare to look directly into the eyes of the boss, replied timidly, and then asked in a low voice.
"The Ian Gray family..."
"I don't need you to remind me."
Piram glanced at Sanderson and said.
"Go and find out what they are working on first. It's best to get a sample back."
"Yes, master."
Sanderson nodded repeatedly, not daring to disobey.
"You can leave now."
At a wave of Piram's hand, Sanderson quickly left, not daring to stay a second longer.
The office door was closed and Piram spat out a smoke ring, looking at the opened letter on the desk.
The sender of the letter was Hailar Ian Gray, the second son of the Ian Gray family.
The letter roughly explained the current situation of the Ian Gray family. Only then did Piram know what happened to this wealthy family, and why Reiner Ian Gray, the young master of the Ian Gray family entered the Luna Nova Magical Academy.
It was with Hailar's help in the past that Piram obtained the first pot of gold, and then he could succeed in having the current wealth and status, so he respected Hailar..
Hailar learned that his disappointing younger brother had come to Luna Nova Magical Academy, so he hoped that Piram could educate this inexperienced noble and young master about the truth of the world.
While feeling that the Ian Gray family could even be this harsh to their family members, Piram had a legitimate reason to deal with Antoine.
"I'm sorry, Master Reiner, it seems that I have to cause you some troubles."
Speaking to himself, Piram looked at a picture frame on the table again.
In the frame, it was originally a group photo of three people, but the head of one of them has been blacked out, which looked quite frightening.
"As for Antoine, it's time for you to pay the price."
Piram clenched his fists, the sound of knuckles cracking reverberated in the office, and a little electric arc flashed through the air.

At the Rainbow Tower thousands of miles away, reviewer Grimm hesitated and watched the clock on the wall ticked away little by little.
There was still half an hour before the deadline for the paper review. He must write and submit the review opinions of the paper before that. Otherwise, it would be considered negligence; not only his points would be deducted, but he would also have to run into the trouble of qualification review.
But Grimm had been thinking about his review comment for three days.
He wanted to write countless times, but he gave up his thoughts repeatedly whenever he picked the pen.
"Forget it, if something really goes wrong, just pass it to the higher-level reviewer."
In the end, Grimm gritted his teeth and began to write his review opinions on parchment.
"The paper has successfully discovered a brand new gas with special properties through the modification of common experiments. At the same time, based on this, the paper raised several questions about the combustion reaction process of the fire element..."
Grimm first summarized the entire paper of Reiner with his own understanding, and then commented on the experiment itself. Since the experiment in the paper was very detailed and the points to be considered were basically all considered, Grimm didn't spend too much time on this part.
Then it came to the comment section.
Grimm thought for a while, swallowed, and the quill was dipped in ink before continuing to write.
"Based on the above reasons, I think this paper is quite groundbreaking and rigorous. For the first time, the substances before and after the experiment were quantitatively weighed. The research ideas are quite worth learning. At the same time, the experimental design is rigorous and expanded. It has demonstrated the various properties of this new gas..."
Writing to this point, Grimm paused. The next discussion about the combustion reaction was the most important. He took a deep breath and continued writing.
"...Several questions about the combustion reaction in the experiment are of great value for discussion, but unfortunately, they did not explore in depth. This is the lack of the thesis, but the spirit of questioning and inquiry demonstrated in it is worthy of recognition. The problem is enough to attract the attention of all alchemists..."
After writing the last comment, Grimm sighed and finally wrote the review score.
"The paper is approved, and it is recommended to award one hundred academic points."
......
In the other office of the Rainbow Tower, Kanon had already finished his paper review comment and was re-checking his comment at this time.
"...The experimental method designed in this paper is avant-garde and enlightening. The format of the paper is rigorous and the logic is clear. However, due to the author's lack of understanding of the new theories, there are obvious errors in the conclusion. The content is only suitable for reference only. The paper is approved and it is recommended to reward ten academic points.".
Putting aside the review comments, Kanon took a sip of coffee.
Originally, according to common sense, this kind of paper with the wrong conclusion should not be passed, but considering that Professor Fleming's paper has not been published, it was quite rare to be able to write something like this, so Kanon decided to pass the paper and give the author a little encouragement.
And he really liked the neat format of this paper, and even had the idea of writing papers in this format in the future.
Shaking the bell, Kanon put the paper review comments into the teleportation magic circle on the table. A green flame burned and soon swallowed the parchment.
......
Just two floors above the office in Kanon, the reviewer Angeli had just completed his review comments. This paper was too shocking, he was so excited and shocked that he immediately sent a letter to his old friend who ran an academic journal.
Approaching the final submission time, he glanced at the review comments he had written.
"...The experimental method of this paper is innovative. It is the first time that the quantitative analysis was used to monitor the whole process of the experiment. It has a visual display of the changes in the mass of objects before and after the experiment. At the same time, the gas generated in the experiment had extremely special properties and broad application prospects. Finally, in the experiment, reasonable doubts were raised about the traditional fire element combustion reaction. Due to the limitation of knowledge, I cannot answer these questions, but I believe that these doubts will lead the alchemy study towards a brand-new development direction. According to this, the paper is approved, and it is recommended to award 200 academic points."
Two hundred academic points were already a very high reward. In the field of alchemy, usually, only those who discovered new elements could barely reach this number, and it depended on the practical value of the new elements.
But Angeli felt that this paper did have this value, so he nodded and put the paper into the teleportation magic circle
