After looking at Lucis, Eric continued to read the content behind the audit results: "Mr. Jeffrey's evaluation was: 'Enchanting experimental design' rigorously explores and constructs magic. Although limited to his own knowledge and ability There are still many shortcomings in the magic of its construction, but what this paper shows is not how good this apprentice-level magic is, but that high-frequency sound waves can also be used in this way and can also be used as tools for positioning and exploration. Let us There is a new direction in the research of sound waves, this is a paper with groundbreaking contributions ...
‘Because of the simplicity of its discussion’, the importance of this paper is not enough because it does not delve into the bat ’s organ structure and positioning principle, and the foreseeable lack of subsequent development of this principle. Of course, as a magician without a formal arcane level, he has done very well. At the same time, this paper also shows that ordinary creatures also have magical abilities, which is also worthy of our research and exploration. It cannot be limited to the aspects of running, jumping, agility, discoloration, strength, etc. that can be seen intuitively, but should be Look deeper. .
Another satisfying point is that the thesis author ’s way of thinking is a true arcane thinking mode: keen observation, bold assumptions, experimental exclusion, rigorous analysis, reasonable inference, and application. I was surprised he didn't have an arcane level. .
‘Integrate all aspects’ recommends rewarding four arcane points and four arcane points. "
Alas.
"Combined with the evaluation results of the two members of the committee, Lucis Evans' evaluation of this thesis is: 'Innovative contributions' is not important enough, the experiments are clear and rigorous, and they are of value for discussion and research. Four arcane points, Five arcane points., "
Compared with "Garfield" first, the "Jeffrey" looks very embarrassed, but after years of elaboration, his final killing and burial result is still surprisingly similar to "Garfield", obviously fully recognized The value of Lucian's thesis.
His elaboration at the time of the division also allowed Eric and Lazar to roughly understand the subject of Lucian's arcane thesis and new magic.
"Through studying the organs of bats, explore the role of high-frequency sound waves in positioning and exploration. Although Evans you inherited ancient magic, this is your strength, but I also often study bats. Unfortunately, I am studying its gliding ability. Forgetting other aspects, I really regret it. "As a second-ring magician, trying to analyze the most important" flying "in the third-ring magic, Lazar observed most of the creatures that can fly, so He grinned bitterly at Lucian.
At the same time, he had no doubt that Lucien could write this arcane thesis. After all, this was the direction that ancient magicians were good at, so he sincerely embraced Lucien: "Congratulations, Evans, you are me A magician who has so many arcane points on the first day I've seen it. When you make up for the arcane and magic base in a while, you will definitely get the official arcane level 0 "
A lot of high-level arcane masters, even if there are no new research results, may have hundreds of arcane points in one day because of the previously accumulated papers, so seven arcane points in a day are not appalling.
"By the way, how can the three words bat and high-frequency sound waves, positioning, and exploration be related?" After releasing Lucian, Lazar asked curiously, and Eric next to him stopped reaching into the iron cage. Hand, looking back at Lucien, wanting to hear why he was evaluated as having "awesome keen observation ..."
As Lucien considered the language, Lazar added a sneer: "Your thesis has been reviewed. Don't worry about us plagiarizing the results, and if Mr. Eric is interested, maybe he will go 'Ordinary' The Arcane Library 'looks up your paper and writes a new one based on it, allowing you to get cited Arcane points. "
"It's actually very simple, Lazar, have you seen bats flying in the dark night or in the cave? Especially in the cave, so dark and so many bats, they can fly as they want without hitting their companions and stone walls. . "Lucian said with a smile.
In front of two people with arcane levels, this passage is already very illustrative. Eric subconsciously took care of the rich and poor hair around him: "Some results of arcane research are simple to say, but not sharp. I ca n’t find it without the arcaneist's inquiry-style thinking. I think I may have missed many opportunities to publish highly-rated papers without even knowing it. "
He still has a lot of doubts about whether this arcane research paper and the new magic were done by Lucien himself, because this is likely to be a unique magic invented by a magician of the ancient magic empire based on bats. Lucien just learned After the principle was written, it was written in the format of an existing arcane essay, but since the magician did not jump out of the grave to testify, who would care about this?
Lazar sighed: "I consider raising various creatures in my home and carefully observe their small living habits. Maybe in the future, you can get a lot of arcane points and High rating. Hey, Lucian, you already have seven arcane points! "
Since Lucian didn't hide, Lazar felt that he was indeed a friend worthy of contact, so he did not call him Evans casually.
"Since it has been evaluated as a pioneering contribution in the field of sonic applications, if your paper is submitted to the appropriate journal, Evans will definitely be included. When the arcanists who saw your paper studied and explored for some time, Subsequent citation points will be your main source of increasing arcane level. "
"About two or three months later, their papers should be published one after another. Ha ha, if you have n’t passed our arcane assessment to obtain basic arcane points within three months, you will be the first to have more than one thousand Arcanist with no official Arcanist level. "
Eric thought of such a thing, a suspicious smile appeared on his face, apparently very interesting.
When hearing Eric's words, Lucian asked exactly the previous topic: "My paper is limited to a small aspect of the field of sonic applications, and I am afraid that it will be cited a few times. Mr. Eric, do you think Which journal should I choose? "
伊 "Evans, you can clearly realize that this is very good, and I'm worried that you will have too much hope." Lazar said beside him.
Eric nodded: "And after your paper has been cited a lot, the Arcanist who will later study this field will gradually cite the previous paper instead of your original paper, so the citation points will slowly decline and tend to An intermittent, scarce but stable state. "
"Of course, to get more citations, of course, choose journals with high influence and frequently cited papers. Arcane and Magic are the most famous and influential journals in the entire magic world, but They have long been monopolized by large and high-level arcanists. Unless the papers are groundbreaking, breakthrough, and important, the low-level arcanists cannot be included in them at all. Evans, you should not consider them. "
"The remaining journals are forty-two, including the journals of the eleven major factions, seven journals sponsored by the magic council branch, three indexed journals, eighteen journals in small fields, and three specifically for the early-stage Olympics. Comprehensive journals for wizards. As for the periodicals and newspapers sponsored by a few magicians and distributed in a small range, they are for entertainment and mutual communication. Although there are many, they have not been approved by the review committee. References do not earn arcane points. "
Listening to Eric's words, Lucian couldn't help but think: "The magic council has not yet launched an algorithm for the influence of journals? But with so few journals, it is not necessary to calculate the influence, everyone has intuitive Feel. "
"Types of journals such as" Elements "and" Journal of Holm "are also influential and can be widely cited in their respective factions or their own magic council branch, but the requirements are equally strict, and the periodicals of the magic council branch are mainly targeted at the The personnel in the branch, Evans ’direction of your arcane thesis is too niche, not important enough, and it is directly under the headquarters of the parliament, so it is difficult to be published, and it is not worth the risk from a probability perspective. The deacon carefully analyzed Lucian.
Baluchian nodded slightly: "Mr. Erich, do you suggest I choose a journal in a small field?"
"" Sonic "is the most authoritative journal in this field. Its influence is not high but it is not low. Although" Ordinary Arcanist Monthly "is not an authority in this field, it is a comprehensive journal for middle and lower-level Arcanists. The power is higher than "Sonic." Both of them have higher requirements for inclusion. Lucian has great hope for your thesis, but also has a lot of risks. "
Eric paused: "If you submit to the two comprehensive journals dedicated to ordinary arcanists," Arcane Research "and" Magic Research Monthly ", I am sure that your paper will be included in Evans. But they have the worst influence. "
"As for how to choose whether it is adventurous or safe, it depends on Evans what you mean."
Baluchian said sincerely: "Thank you Mr. Eric for so much of your explanation."
"This is my role as the deacon of the" Magic Management Department "." Eric is still the dead face, with a little suspected smile, "There are two or three minutes to six o'clock, Evans, you go back tonight to think about it. Submit your paper tomorrow to catch up with the date of publication. "
Lazar echoed: "I think it is best to choose" Sonic ", after all, it is an authoritative journal in this field."
"Oh, I will carefully weigh the risk is still safe." Lucian passed the Arcane badge to Eric, and let him help to activate.
Eric received the Arcane Badge and was about to put it in the iron cage, but found that there was still a blank document in it, so he took it out in doubt and opened it curiously.
"Mr. Eric, what kind of documents?" Lazar saw Eric seem to be a little dazed, and asked out of the question.
Holding this document, Eric turned to look at Lucien, and took a deep breath: "Evans, this is the contract letter of the" Ordinary Arcanist Monthly ", they promised that if you submit the paper Post them and it will surely be featured in the first fifteen articles in the journal.
He is already a third-level arcanist, but he has never seen an appointment letter. There are many rejection letters that cannot be posted!
