Another Illusion Magic domain verifies the committee member to pick the evaluation result of nun to be more succinct: „This paper confirmed the human body spontaneity electric current and existence and are related with the illusion of brain electromagnetic wave, are this/should domain groundbreaking and unprecedented achievement, because simultaneously is unable to infer other Illusion Magic domains strictly, and oneself lack the decisiveness and logically well-knit various evidence, controversial and discussion, is hard to judge the development level, suggested to reward Arcane overall 25, Arcane 0.3 hundred.” 另外一位幻术领域审核委员采尼的评定结果则要简洁很多:“这篇论文证实了人体自生电流和脑部电磁波的存在并与幻觉有关,属于该领域开创性和突破性的成果,同时由于无法严格地推导到其他幻术领域,且自身缺乏决定性、逻辑严密的多方面证据,极具争议性和讨论性,难以判断重要程度,建议奖励奥术积分二十五个,奥术点三百个。” „Unifies two committee member quite consistent evaluation results, Lucien? The appraisal of Evans this paper is: Belongs to the brain wave and human body class Alchemy material and groundbreaking and breakthrough result of illusion domain, has discussion, has certain development level, temporarily is unable to popularize to infer other Illusion Magic domains. The entire chapter paper logic is clear, the experimental design is rigorous, the magic analysis is accurate, but many great places are unclear, rewards Arcane overall 28, Arcane 0.3 hundred.” “结合两位委员比较一致的评定结果,路西恩?伊文斯这篇论文的评价是:属于脑波、人体类炼金物质、幻觉领域的开创性、突破性成果,极具讨论性,有一定的重要程度,暂时无法普及推导到其他幻术领域。整篇论文逻辑清晰,实验设计严谨,魔法分析准确,但很多重要地方含糊不清,奖励奥术积分二十八个,奥术点三百个。” Sees such verification conclusion, Lucien cannot bear show the smile, although the committee members of Illusion Magic domain as if do not like such paper, the given Arcane bonus is somewhat low, but the first -and-a-half original papers can attain the appraisals of three second ranks, was very good. However strict, this was the direction to look right, the groundbreaking and had discussion also to have naturally, the unprecedentedness related application and concrete magic structure of brain wave in the Illusion Magic aspect, integrated the Arcane system from the strict sense some Illusion Magic. 看到这样的审核结论,路西恩忍不住露出微笑,虽然幻术领域的委员们似乎不太喜欢这样的论文,给的奥术积分奖励偏低,但自己第一篇半原创性论文就能拿到三个第二级别的评价,算是非常不错了。不过严格来讲,这属于方向找对了,开创性和极具讨论性也就自然而然拥有了,突破性则是将脑波在幻术方面的应用与具体的魔法结构联系到了一起,把部分幻术从严格意义上纳入了奥术体系。 Eric sees the Lucien smiling face not to see the haze, this shakes the head saying: „The committee members of Illusion Magic domain too kept old-fashioned, does not like you and Ms. Isabella such paper. Even if appraises according to the standard strictly, the given bonus is still most low within range. Normal, your paper at least can attain 40 to 50 Arcane overalls minimum, Ms. Isabella's that 80.” 埃里克见路西恩笑容不见阴霾,这才摇了摇头道:“幻术领域的委员们太古板保守了,不喜欢你和伊莎贝拉女士这样的论文。即使严格按照标准评价,给的积分奖励也是范围内的最低。正常来说,你这篇论文至少能拿到四十到五十个奥术积分,伊莎贝拉女士的那篇则起码八十。” „How many Arcane overalls does Ms. Isabella attain finally?” Lucien has the preparation, has not been angry, committee member likes to cause the bonus to have the deviation personally almost to be certain, so long as the appraisal words of different rank do not present „confusion” on the line, the Arcane overall came from the quotation in any case mainly. “伊莎贝拉女士最后拿到多少奥术积分？”路西恩对此有心理准备,倒没怎么生气,委员的个人喜好造成积分奖励有偏差几乎是一定的,只要不同级别的评价单词不出现“混淆”就行,反正奥术积分主要来自于引用。 Eric is deep in the Sorcerers control division human relations, understands a lot, at the same time maintains the serious old-fashioned expression. At the same time lowers the sound saying: „50. Really excessively, if Ms. Isabella is not high rank Sorcerers, they likely give lowly 40.” 埃里克在魔法师管理部人脉关系深厚,了解很多事情,一边保持严肃古板的表情。一边压低声音道:“五十个。真是过分,如果伊莎贝拉女士不是高阶魔法师,他们很可能给最低的四十。” Isabella belongs to tall tower, is six levels of Arcanist and seventh rank magician. Excels at the astrology and physiognomy and Illusion Magic two factions. But concerned about without corresponding domain highest honor but is unable to become tall tower to have the core member of right to vote. Also cannot be selected into Arcane to verify the committee, her student is Lucien has seen Rachel. 伊莎贝拉属于高塔,是六级奥术师、七环魔法师。擅长星相、幻术两个派系。可一直碍于没有相应领域的最高荣誉而无法成为高塔有表决权的核心成员。也未能被选入奥术审核委员会,她的学生是路西恩见过的蕾切尔。 „Looking at it like this, Ms. Isabella wants to attain the sorcerer laurel crown a little difficulty.” Lucien speaking thoughtlessly comments. “这样看来,伊莎贝拉女士想要拿到巫师桂冠有点难度啊。”路西恩随口评价道。 Eric's light gray eyes are staring at Lucien earnestly. Discovered that he really has no idea after the sorcerer laurel crown said: „Therefore the winner of sorcerer laurel crown has been less than several other award items, moreover majority is sorcerer's the member of family/home. The achievement that they win basically was follows in the ancient times the small range innovations or the applications of various magic empire three big faction theories.” 埃里克浅灰色的双眼认真地盯着路西恩。发现他真对巫师桂冠没什么想法后才道:“所以巫师桂冠的获得者一直都少于其他几个奖项,而且大部分是巫师之家的成员。他们获奖的成果基本都是沿袭古代魔法帝国三大派系各种理论的小范围创新或应用。” „The experiment of this time Ms. Isabella is rigorous, various aspect evidence and magic evidences are complete, the logical inferential reasoning does not have the mistake strictly, if sorcerer's family/home does not issue the laurel crown to her and Rachel, perhaps sorcerer laurel crown highest honor will become the joke, will not attach great importance to by other Arcanist.” “不过这次伊莎贝拉女士的实验非常严谨,各方面证据和魔法佐证齐全,逻辑推导也严密没有错误,如果巫师之家不将桂冠颁发给她和蕾切尔,恐怕巫师桂冠这个最高荣誉就会成为笑话,再也不会被其他奥术师重视。” Sometimes, the promulgation is also one type „politics” on consideration, Lucien shakes the head funnily, later must take the laurel crown, what aspect should from? Should better not to deviate oneself current research direction. 有的时候,颁奖也是一种“政治”上的考量啊,路西恩好笑地摇了摇头,以后自己要拿桂冠,该从什么方面着手呢？最好不偏离自己当前的研究方向。 Is money-mad and collection hobby Lucien, occasionally meets the thought to diverge thinks of similar issue, is only not quite serious. 一直是个财迷和收集癖的路西恩,偶尔会思维发散地想到类似问题,只是不太严重。 ............ ………… Goes home, Lucien just gave the steward to hang the ceremonial hat on the pin rail, has the guest visit. 回到家中,路西恩刚将礼帽交给管家雷欧挂在衣帽架上,就有客人来访。 „Mr. Drummond?” report/give report who Lucien hears the servant, is a little for a while blurry, oneself do not know what Mr. Drummond. “德鲁蒙德先生？”路西恩听到仆人的禀报,一时有点迷糊,自己不认识什么德鲁蒙德先生啊。 Rushes to say in side in a low voice: „Master, is the editor-in-chief of «Arcane» periodical.” 雷欧赶忙在旁边低声道:“老爷,是《奥术》期刊的主编。” Right, the editor-in-chief of «Arcane» periodical! Lucien joins the palms in greeting a racket, who remembering Drummond is. Devotes to regarding each in " Arcane » periodical publishes paper Arcanist, great person who he must engrave on mind, only then Lucien this type does not worry that now the paper will not have the fellow who the place will send to forget. 对,《奥术》期刊的主编！路西恩合掌一拍,想起了德鲁蒙德是谁。对于每一位有志于在《奥术》期刊上发表论文的奥术师来讲,他都是必须铭记在心的大人物,只有路西恩这种现在不愁论文没地方发的家伙才会遗忘。 „What does he ask me to make? Does how you know his?” The Lucien doubts asked. Drummond is seven levels of Arcanist and eight rank magician, the editor-in-chief of «Arcane» periodical, had won the Arcane scepter prize, with Arcane position, the magic strength has other day of badly distance, does he visit unexpectedly personally? “他来找我做什么？雷欧,你怎么知道他的？”路西恩疑惑地问道。德鲁蒙德可是七级奥术师、八环魔法师,《奥术》期刊的主编,曾经拿过奥术权杖奖,与自己无论是奥术地位,还是魔法实力都有天差地别的距离,他竟然亲自上门？ Replied like overwhelming majority stewards meticulously: „Master, when I Ivanovszki is the assistant, most needs to remember is each place complex human relations, therefore after the Allyn hardship, had inquired to Mr. Lazar the great person who 200 need to pay attention, can provide the answer to you momentarily.” 雷欧像绝大部分管家那样一丝不苟地回答:“老爷,我给伊万诺夫斯基做助手时,最需要记住的就是每个地方复杂的人脉关系,因此到了阿林厄后,已经向拉扎尔先生打听了两百个需要关注的大人物,随时能向您提供答案。” „Very good.” Lucien praises satisfied, this is the good steward, then sets out to greet Drummond to out of the door. “很好。”路西恩满意地赞扬,这才是好管家啊,然后起身到门外迎接德鲁蒙德。 Drummond wears the dark-colored waistcoat and western-style clothes, wears same color Top Hat, holds the black cane, the whole person is thin, black eyes sharp like eagle. 德鲁蒙德穿着深色马甲和西服,戴着同色高礼帽,持着黑色手杖,整个人清癯严肃,黑色双眼锐利如同老鹰。 „Lord of Storm your excellency had instructed the issue in my force field, is rare has your excellency of achievement in many Arcane domains, Evans you can become his student, I was very happy for you.” Drummond has not kept up appearances, meets borrows the Lord of Storm matter to pull closer relations of both sides. “风暴主宰阁下曾经指导过我力场方面的问题,是少见的在很多奥术领域都有成就的阁下,伊文斯你能成为他的学生,我很替你高兴。”德鲁蒙德没有摆谱,一见面就借风暴主宰的事情拉近双方的关系。 Lucien has saluted, replied humorously: „Every morning must experience teacher thought storm of time, the time always seems long.” 路西恩行过礼,幽默地回答:“每天上午都要经历一次老师的思维风暴,时间总是显得漫长。” Drummond gawked staring, but understands immediately strange phrase „thought storm” is what meaning, therefore said with a smile gently: „Without many people are willing when discussing Arcane and magic issue treats in Lord of Storm side your excellency.” 德鲁蒙德愣了愣,但马上就明白了奇怪词组“思维风暴”是什么意思,于是轻轻笑道:“没多少人愿意在讨论奥术和魔法问题时待在风暴主宰阁下身边。” Two people exchanged greetings, while walked into the living room. Lucien inquired politely: „Mr. Drummond, is honored you to visit very much. To be honest, hears the name time, I have not thought completely can be you, should I go to " Arcane » periodical headquarters visits your.” 两人一边寒暄,一边走入客厅。路西恩礼貌地询问:“德鲁蒙德先生,很荣幸您来拜访。老实说,听到名字的时候,我完全没想到会是您,本该我去《奥术》期刊总部拜访您的。” Drummond takes the cane selected forward: „I from verifying the committee obtain the news, knows how you in affected hormone secretion to have the unprecedented achievement, moreover introduced the Illusion Magic domain the electromagnetic theory, therefore borrowed to come to see your paper, was really one has the article of discussion value, carved with our «Arcane» periodical next issue of subject with very much. Right. The hormone is Ms. Isabella's name to the human body class Alchemy material.” 德鲁蒙德拿着的手杖向前点了点:“我从审核委员会得到消息,知道您在如何影响激素分泌方面有了突破性的成果,而且将电磁理论引入了幻术领域,所以将你的论文借来看了看,果然是一篇非常具有讨论价值的文章,与我们《奥术》期刊下一期的主题很锲和。对了。激素是伊莎贝拉女士对人体类炼金物质的命名。” „Originally is the preparation you sends the treaty draft letter to Evans. But after I remember previous time you to be surpassed by our periodical staff within the job duty draws back the manuscript, we through Raventi, the Gaston two gentlemen expressed the apology, the sincerity seems insufficient, therefore I visit you directly. First, expressed the apology to that matter. That staff had been dismissed. Second, facing facing your treaty draft.” “本来是准备向伊文斯你发约稿函的。但我想起上次你被我们期刊工作人员超过职权范围地退稿后,我们只是通过拉文第、加斯东两位先生表达了歉意,诚意显得不足,因此我直接来拜访你。一是对那件事情表示道歉。那位工作人员已经被开除了。二是面对面向你约稿。” «Arcane» is the world's most famous the most authoritative periodical, its editor-in-chief unexpectedly direct visit treaty draft! Perhaps such treatment is verifies the committee members unable to enjoy ordinary, in competes for Legendary Sorcerer and big Arcanist paper with " Magic » periodical. Has this situation to happen. Naturally, Drummond mainly because of the influence of previous incident, has to make the full stance. 《奥术》是魔法世界最著名最权威的期刊,它的主编竟然直接上门约稿！这样的待遇恐怕是普通审核委员都无法享受的,只有在与《魔法》期刊争夺传奇魔法师、大奥术师的论文时。才有这种情况发生。当然,德鲁蒙德主要是因为上次事件的影响,不得不做足姿态。 „The previous apology I had accepted, Mr. Drummond you do not need such grandly.” Lucien and Drummond sit down in the living room respectively, then the doubts asked: „Next issue of subject? Does " Arcane » periodical have the subject?” “上次的道歉我已经接受了,德鲁蒙德先生您没必要这么隆重。”路西恩和德鲁蒙德在客厅分别坐下,接着疑惑地问道:“下一期的主题？《奥术》期刊有主题？” Before ravelling, Lucien not matter that because „being grateful” complies with publish, after all «Ordinary Arcanist Monthly publication» Mr. Woods is oneself old friend. 在没弄明白情况前,路西恩并未因为“感激涕零”就答应登载的事情,毕竟《普通奥术师月刊》的伍兹先生是自己的老朋友。 „Isabella's paper after verification, stirred the enormous controversy. Recently one week, many high rank Arcanist wrote the paper, or made the experiment testing, either refuted according to the theory, therefore next issue of «Arcane» above, except for ten most front papers of other domains, other quotas assigned to this matter, was the subject of this phase of discussion, to achieve the best effect. Evans your article is to Isabella's most effective supplement and proof, hopes that can on publishes in our «Arcane».” Drummond said sincerely. “伊莎贝拉的论文通过审核后,引起了极大争议。最近一个礼拜,不少高阶奥术师都就此写了论文,或做实验论证,或根据理论反驳,所以下一期的《奥术》上面,除了十篇其他领域的最前沿论文,其余名额都分配给了这件事情,算是这一期讨论的主题,以达到最好的效果。伊文斯你的文章是对伊莎贝拉的最有力补充和证明,希望能够在我们《奥术》上登载。”德鲁蒙德诚恳地说道。 Since Lucien in some situation after the front described latest achievement and direction of Arcane research, this words and expressions were widely used gradually. 自从路西恩在某个场合用前沿来形容奥术研究的最新成果和方向后,这个词语就渐渐得到了广泛使用。 Achieves the best effect? After Lucien hears the view that Drummond has not concealed, quick understands is how a matter. 达到最好的效果？路西恩听到德鲁蒙德没有掩饰的说法后,很快就明白了是怎么一回事。 Should be most Highest Council most members does not satisfy the Illusion Magic and other faction long-term dissociation beyond the Arcane system, brings sorcerer's family/home „sorcerer” with the Arcanist barrier, after Isabella's paper was confirmed that they plan to take this opportunity, builds an atmosphere that helps Isabella, brings the pressure on the conservative faction sorcerers. So long as Isabella can win the competition, is the great victory of Arcane, is equivalent to sorcerer's family/home to acknowledge in disguised form some Illusion Magic can be integrated into the Arcane system. 应该是最高评议团的大部分成员不满意幻术等派系长期游离在奥术体系之外,带来巫师之家的“巫师”与奥术师们的隔阂,所以当伊莎贝拉的论文被证实后,他们打算借这个机会,营造一个有利于伊莎贝拉的氛围,给保守派巫师施加压力。只要伊莎贝拉能拿到桂冠,就是奥术的重大胜利,相当于巫师之家变相承认部分幻术能够被纳入奥术体系。 Naturally, the premise is Isabella's paper is rigorous enough and important, itself has the qualifications to win the sorcerer competition, otherwise was Arcanist loses face. 当然,前提是伊莎贝拉的论文足够严谨和重要,本身就具备资格拿下巫师桂冠,否则就是奥术师们丢脸了。 Lucien both hands close up alternately, tone heavy said/tunnel: „Mr. Drummond, «Ordinary Arcanist Periodical» Mr. Woods helps me be many, therefore I have promised him, my paper first publishes in their periodical. The commitment is a serious matter, I am very awkward.” 路西恩双手交叉合拢,语气沉重地道:“德鲁蒙德先生,《普通奥术师期刊》的伍兹先生帮过我很多忙,所以我答应过他,我的论文优先在他们期刊上发表。承诺是一件严肃的事情,我很为难。” At this time, Lucien naturally must seize the chance to knock an advantage, oneself had Lord of Storm to be the backing in any case. 这种时候,路西恩当然要趁机敲点好处,反正自己有风暴主宰做后盾。 „Evans, Arcane verified the committee to discuss a matter recently, is the periodicals of different weight/quantity, the paper publishes after the quotation overall that the above obtains obviously is the same, like this fair it is an enormous inequality. Therefore, they plan to introduce the influence factor the concept, the periodical correspondence different influence factors of different weight/quantity, later when the paper that in the periodical publishes, obtains the quotation overall must be multiplied by the influence factor of this/should periodical and takes entire.” “伊文斯,最近奥术审核委员会在讨论一件事情,明明是不同分量的期刊,论文发表在上面之后得到的引用积分却相同,这样的公平本身就是一种极大的不公平。因此,他们打算引入影响因数的概念,不同分量的期刊对应不同的影响因数,以后在期刊上发表的论文,获得引用积分时都要乘以该期刊的影响因数并取整。” Drummond has the expectation to say early: „The result of preliminary discussion a time is five years evaluates influence factor, unifies all papers the reward Arcane overall mean values, quotation, paper quantity that and other parameters of this periodical published over the past five years...... is not lower than one, is not higher than three. The «Ordinary Arcanist Monthly publication» recent years manages very well, I think that their influence factors will be quite high.” 德鲁蒙德早有预料般道:“初步讨论的结果是五年评定一次影响因数,结合这份期刊过去五年登载的所有论文的奖励奥术积分平均数、引用次数、论文数量等参数……不低于一,也不高于三。《普通奥术师月刊》最近几年办得很好,我想他们的影响因数会比较高。” Such algorithm and Lucien familiar complete different, after all when here were many each paper verification reward Arcane overall, no matter what, a better periodical will definitely be in demand, this may relate to the growth of Arcane overall, but the promotion of Arcane rank corresponds the Congress treatment and subsidy. 这样的算法与路西恩熟悉的完全不一样,毕竟这里多了每份论文审核时的奖励奥术积分,但不管怎么样,越好的期刊肯定会越来越炙手可热,这可关系到奥术积分的增长,而奥术等级的提升又对应议会的待遇和补贴。 Sees Lucien to ponder, Drummond continues saying: „I think that Mr. Woods will definitely agree Evans you give us to publish this paper. To thank your support, we prepare to Evans your can directly on publish the quota of paper in «Arcane», but the arrangement of time number needs us to decide.” 见路西恩沉思起来,德鲁蒙德继续道:“我想伍兹先生肯定会同意伊文斯你将这篇论文交给我们登载的。而为了感谢你的支持,我们准备给伊文斯你一个可以直接在《奥术》上登载论文的名额,只是期数的安排需要我们决定。” This at least Arcane verifies the treatment that the board member can obtain! 这是至少奥术审核委员会委员才能获得的待遇！ Lucien not artificial, after all this matter is very possible is most Highest Council will, therefore the smile said: „Since Mr. Woods will not oppose, I do not have the opinion.” 路西恩没有矫情,毕竟这件事很可能是最高评议团的意志,于是微笑道:“既然伍兹先生不会反对,那我没有意见。” Also exchanged greetings several, Drummond said goodbye pitifully: „If not meet Isabella this paper, if not Evans your research results is not very rigorous, but also without many evidences, I thinks that this issue of subject on this/should centered on your paper. Like this you are very likely to become in the recent hundred years second to take two award items before high rank Arcanist.” 又寒暄了几句,德鲁蒙德略带可惜地告辞:“如果不是遇上伊莎贝拉这篇论文,如果不是伊文斯你的研究成果还不够严谨,还没有更多的佐证,我想这一期的主题就该是以你的论文为重点了。这样你很可能成为最近百年内第二位在高阶前拿下两个奖项的奥术师。” „Evans you are very young, some are the opportunities, from the high rank also distance, achieves this achievement to be not implausible, you your excellency is still studying with Lord of Storm especially.” “不过伊文斯你还很年轻,有的是机会,距离高阶也还有一段距离,达成这个成就并不是没有可能,尤其你还在跟着风暴主宰阁下学习。” „Ok, I first said goodbye, some «Arcane» periodical also a lot processing.” “好了,我先告辞,《奥术》期刊还有很多事情处理。” Packed off Drummond, Lucien shook the head, returning to the study room to continue itself to analyze five points of magics the efforts.( To be continued......) 送走了德鲁蒙德,路西恩摇了摇头,回到书房继续自己解析五环魔法的努力。(未完待续……)
