Night.

The sky is full of stars, shining brightly.

Gro sat on the bed in the bedroom, having already driven away all the maids and guards in the room, and looked directly at an hourglass on the table next to him, as if he was enchanted.

"Rustling ......"

The fine sand flowed down quickly, and Gro's eyes didn't blink for a few minutes, and he was bloodshot.

Finally......

"Sand ...... The "Salala ......", all the sand streamers above the hourglass, the best time to meditate has come.

"Whew", Gro took a deep breath, calmed his excitement, first picked up the miracle potion given by Richard, dihydrogen monoxide, took a sip, and drank about a third of the dose. Then he opened the ether bottle and sniffed hard.

After doing this, the two flasks were sealed and steady, and as soon as Gro's body was loosened, he lay down on the soft velvet bed, closed his eyes and began to meditate. Of course, in the eyes of the outside world, it is more like a corpse.

One minute, two minutes, three minutes......

Gro felt his body vibrate, his consciousness separated, and he was trying to get out of his body, but the binding force of his body was so strong that it was difficult to get rid of.

Just when Gro was a little anxious in his heart, he felt as if some force from the outside world was approaching, and before he could react, he felt that his consciousness body was grabbed by an external force and quickly pulled towards the outside of the body.

With a "poof", Gro felt as if he had heard something, and the entire consciousness body successfully detached from the body, and suddenly it was light, and it was extremely comfortable.

Gro tentatively looked around, but couldn't see anything, which was normal. In fact, he could sense almost nothing except the energy elements that existed in the distance around him. Aside from returning to the physical body, he was almost unable to control the consciousness body to do anything, at most to control the consciousness body shaking in a small range. Generally speaking, the closer you are to the energy element by shaking, the easier it is to ingest the free energy element.

Today, it seems that because of the use of potions, the range of shaking is much larger than yesterday, which means that he can absorb more free energy elements.

It seems that the dihydrogen monoxide agent is really magical.

Gro thought and began to meditate with all his might, as the other consciousness shook its head and quickly left the room.

......

The courtyard where Richard lived in the Emerald Gold City, in the study.

Richard, who was sitting in his chair, opened his eyes.

"Whew", Richard exhaled a cloudy breath and stood up. After moving his body, he turned and walked out of the study and walked to the side of the laboratory. Preparations have been made to test the so-called free energy elements to prove the correctness of previous conjectures.

In the laboratory, there is a long black wooden table in the middle, on which are placed many instruments. Around the wooden table, against the walls are wooden shelves and cabinets, all of which contain numerous potion bottles and experimental materials for various purposes.

Richard walked to the lab table, first took out the cobalt blue glass and put it away, then found hydrochloric acid, deionized water, platinum coils, and finally took out an alcohol blowtorch.

Generally speaking, it is best to use a Bunsen burner to do a flame color experiment, and the flame temperature can reach 1500 degrees Celsius, and the effect is obvious. However, the Bunsen burner, invented by the German scientist "Bunsen" in the 19th century on the modern earth, needs to use petroleum gas or coal gas as fuel, which is a bit troublesome, and Richard finally chose to use an alcohol blowtorch made of alcohol lamps.

The flame of the alcohol blowtorch is much higher than the flame of about 400 degrees Celsius of the alcohol lamp, which can reach about 1000 degrees Celsius, although it is lower than the Bunsen burner, but it is enough.

With all the lab equipment ready, Richard began the experiment.

Holding the platinum coil in his hand, immersed in hydrochloric acid, and seeing bubbles coming out of the surface of the platinum coil until it disappeared, Richard knew that he had cleared the debris from the platinum coil.

Richard took the alcohol blowtorch to his eyes and lit it, then took the platinum coil from the hydrochloric acid and sent it towards the flames of the alcohol blowtorch.

The platinum coil that had just been taken out was still stained with hydrochloric acid, and when it touched the high-temperature flame of the alcohol blowtorch, it immediately made a "stab" sound, and the liquid evaporated rapidly, and then emitted a faint pungent smell. In this regard, Richard did not care, just stared at the flame, waited until there was no color change, removed the coil, rinsed it with deionized water, and dried it naturally.

At this point, the first step of the experiment is complete, and the next step is the most important and simplest.

Holding the platinum coil, he reached back into the flames of the alcohol blowtorch while Richard controlled a specially reserved and unsmelted free energy element in his body to gush out of his fingertips and follow the coil handle in his hand to the part of the coil in the flames.

It can be seen with the naked eye that the color of the alcohol blowtorch begins to change, and at this time it is no longer the flame color of the alcohol blowtorch, but the flame color of the free energy element.

This is exactly the flame color reaction.

The flame has a color, and part of it is the temperature that plays a role, so there is a saying that the fire is perfect, but there is also a part, it is the elements that are in play.

The reason why fireworks are colorful is that there are many different metallic elements added to them: potassium for a light purple color, sodium for a golden yellow, and lead for a blue-white ......

This principle of flame color reaction is called electron transition.

This is because when certain elements are burned in a flame, the electrons outside the nucleus absorb a certain amount of energy and will transition from the ground state to the excited state with higher energy. After the transition, when the excited electrons return to the ground state, they will release excess energy in the form of spectral lines of a certain wavelength, making the flame take on a special color.

The flame color seen in the experiment of flame color reaction is the spectral line color, and the spectral line of each element is special, and the color emitted is also special. Therefore, the presence of a certain element can be judged according to the flame color, for example, the magenta flame represents the existence of strontium, the jade green flame represents the existence of copper, and the yellow flame represents the existence of sodium.

Through this experiment, if it is found that there is an element that is different from the flame color and spectral lines of all known elements, then it is naturally a new element.

Richard wasn't sure if the flame experiment would work on the guessed element of the superheavy nuclear stabilization island, but at least give it a try. After all, according to theory, the elements of the island of supergravity nuclear stability have a relativistic effect with electrons inside that have exceeded the speed of light. And let the wave function of the Dirac ground state become wave dynamic, producing a series of magical effects.

That being the case, what else is impossible?

Richard thought so, casting his gaze at the flames of the flame-alcohol blowtorch.

The next moment, what appeared in Richard's sight was a red, blood-like flame, which was not the flame color of any of the known elements, but the same color as the light point that had ingested the free energy element.

Red, high-energy reaction, is this the fire element of the so-called fire spell?

Richard thought.

His eyes flashed, and Richard picked up the cobalt blue glass that had taken nearly a day to make and prepared to use it.

The use of cobalt blue glass is mainly to filter the flame color influence of some impurity elements, such as the golden yellow of sodium ions, which can easily overshadow the color of other elements and cause misjudgment.

Through the cobalt glass, Richard looked at the flames of the alcohol blowtorch again, this time a much lighter crimson, but still the elemental color that had never existed.

"Sure enough......" Richard muttered to himself.

It is undeniable that this experimental study does not prove too many things.

Because it is impossible to store too many types of free energy elements in the source, it takes many flame experiments to test the hypothesis. In addition, in order to ensure accuracy, in addition to the flame color test, some other means should be used to detect the properties of the elements.

It's a long-term job.

But in any case, in Richard's view, at least there is a good start for now, at least it shows that the direction of research is not wrong.

Then everything after that is only a matter of time.

"Time ......," Richard muttered to himself again.
