Chapter 508 Review of Two Major Journals
In the editor-in-chief's office of "Southeast" journal, the editor-in-chief of the journal "Southeast" in the southeast corner, a one-ring crystallized wizard, is flipping through articles and classifying these articles.
These articles submitted to "Southeast" will be initially selected, and those that are obviously unqualified or submitted to the wrong journal will be eliminated, and a letter will be sent back to the wizard to indicate the rejection of the article submission.
But after the preliminary selection, we still need to find external review experts. We need to find at least two experts who are in the same magic school and magic sub-field and in the same small field of magic. They will conduct a double-blind review. Finally, after getting the opinions of more than two experts and the opinions of the editorial department, it can be published in the journal.
This is only a requirement of Southeast, and in larger journals, the requirements are even more stringent.
After all, the Southeast Angle Territory is not a particularly high-level wizarding place. At this time, the editor-in-chief of "Southeast" changed his face slightly after reading Locke's article about the power of Mist. "This is..."
"The power of Mist? The contributor is a wizard from the Southeast Corner Region. Although he is currently located in the land of Six Towers, he can indeed submit to "Southeast" and meets the requirements." The editor-in-chief wizard quickly realized the crux of the problem. "The power of Myst was once the top secret of Lilith's cabin. In order to verify the existence of the power of Myst, Lilith's cabin caused a lot of bloodshed and triggered many riots."
"The inhumane experiment even interrupted the upward momentum of Lilith's cabin and received a serious warning from the White Wizard Association."
The editor-in-chief wizard looked at the article in front of him and quickly realized the hidden meaning behind this article.
If this article is true, then this article is definitely not simple.
He is not an expert in this field, so he needs to find experts outside the editorial department to conduct professional reviews and give review opinions to see whether the article is of high enough value or is just a fake.
The editor-in-chief wizard quickly opened the gray fog slate, and after hiding the contributor's name in accordance with the regulations, he sent the two materials to two colleagues in related fields.
Dean Earl Thompson and Harlan Vera, the editor-in-chief, checked the articles they had published in Southeast and the articles published in the association library. There were several articles related to the power of Mist. Therefore, according to the principle of finding reviewers, these two should be asked to evaluate the article about the creation and principle of Mist's power.
The editor-in-chief wizard frowned. "Now we have to wait for the opinions of two experts. If it is true, it would be really serious. I remember that this wizard is also from Lilith's cabin."
"After so many years, I didn't expect that the wizards in Lilith's cabin finally got what they wanted."
On the other side, Locke's submission to the journal office of "Yunze" has also been delivered. In the editor's office of "Yunze", a second-ring editor wizard was looking through the letter. After reading the article submitted by Locke about using the power of Mist to accelerate himself to become a first-ring crystal wizard, he was slightly stunned.
"You must have submitted it wrong, how can a first-level wizard directly submit to "Yunze"? The minimum submission standard for "Yunze" must also be a second-level wizard. By the way, this young man should be an outside wizard, so I don't know this."
Earl Harry, the editor-in-chief of "Yunze", smiled. "But actually the quality of this article is quite high. Judging from the contributor's name, he should be the Yunze Cup champion—"
“He is worthy of being the wizard who can win our Yunze Cup championship.” After Earl Harry investigated Locke’s past resume and saw that Locke was the Yunze Cup champion, he immediately had a three-point favorable impression of Locke out of thin air.
Locke was born in the Southeast Corner Region, and later received funding from the Plutarch family in the Land of Six Towers, and then won the Yunze Cup Breeder Competition Championship in Yunze Wetland.
Winning the championship of this competition has become part of his origin.
As the wizard of Yunze Wetland, Earl Harry will naturally trust Locke more when he sees that he is the Yunze Cup champion and will not think that his article is nonsense.
Earl Harry thought for a moment and wrote his rejection opinion to Locke in a tactful tone. "Dear Wizard Augustine, thank you for your submission."
"But "Yunze" only accepts excellent articles on important discoveries published by wizards with level 2 or above. You can choose "Qingcao Yunze", an important sub-journal of "Yunze", to submit your article. Although it is a sub-journal, it is also a journal with a reputation of zone one."
"Secondly, although the quality of your article is high, you yourself It seems that it is a pity that there are no successful examples of becoming a crystallized wizard, so in order to prevent you from being rejected by "Green Grass Clouds", I hope you can provide actual proof. "
At the same time, in the secret realm of the Poison Valley Wizard, Locke felt the gray fog slate shaking crazily while tracking Nidhogg.
He summoned the Gray Mist Slate and saw a message from Teacher Harlan Vera asking him if he had recently contributed an article to "Southeast".
Harlan Vera sent himself a message - "Although I know that contacting in private violates the principle of blind review, Locke, I still want to know, have you contributed to "Southeast" recently?
Have you succeeded in possessing the power of Mist?
Locke was about to reply, but he heard a roar behind him. When he turned around, he saw that half of the sky behind him had been dyed blood red. A river of blood poured from the sky and poured into Nidhogg's body.
Nidhogg used ritual magic to suppress the sea gold sand in his body. At the same time, his body became as big as a hill again.
Like a giant.
Nidhogg laughed. The laughter was the power of some kind of sonic magical creature, which made Locke's eardrums hurt.
With the blessing of the power of the blood river plane, Nidhogg used the remaining five spider legs to draw towards Locke's neck.
"Is this your ritual magic? It seems to be a status enhancement type, not a scheming type." Seeing that the opponent was forced out of his trump card first, Locke breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time summoned the Hydra, wrapping it around his body.
Mist's power turned into a giant axe, slashing at Nidhogg. At the same time, Locke took out a true seeing crystal from the ring,
Recorded what was happening currently.
"Teacher Harlan Vera, regarding all things about the power of Mist, what you hear is false, and what you see is believing."
At this time, Nidhogg, blessed by ritual magic, and the power of Mist in Locke's hands collided.
Nidhogg roared angrily: "This is the unique ritual magic of the crystallization wizard. You are just a liquefaction wizard, and you absolutely cannot resist this power."
The next moment, two powerful forces collided together.
Locke suddenly felt that a powerful external force, an external force that did not belong to Nidhogg, came on the ax of his Mist power.
The moment the two force fields came into contact, Locke seemed to realize that he was not fighting Nidhogg, but a part of the force of the Blood River Plane behind Nidhogg.
The so-called ritual magic is to borrow other powers through magic rituals to enhance one's own power.
From Locke's current perspective, this can be regarded as a low-level begging version of great magic, because the power of ritual magic does not actually belong to him, but is only borrowed from the outside.
Even, it may cost a lot.
