Chapter 471: Chapter 450: How Could You Possibly Comprehend Master Lynn’s Wisdom? (2-in-1)_2
The arrangent order of this elental periodic table is not random; it’s determined by the number of protons in the structure of the elents.
For example, among the elents they discovered and confird, the atomic number of hydrogen is one, that of helium is two, and lithium and beryllium are three and four, respectively. Then, suddenly, carbon jumps to six, and the sequences for nitrogen and oxygen are just right at seven and eight, with precisely five missing!
Lynn believed that the sequence of five (protons in the nucleus) must exist; it was just that they hadn’t discovered it yet!
The rest of the elents were also ‘predicted’ in this way!
As for their mass, it was determined by using gravity as a ruler and then applying the thod of microscopic deformation amplification, which magnified the slight differences by hundreds of tis to derive their masses.
“Master Lynn once said that you don’t necessarily need a ruler to asure sothing’s length, and you don’t need a beam scale to asure its mass!” Philip explained Master Dean Lynn’s ingenious ideas to the Wizards present in a simple yet profound way.
Monroe, with his limited ‘educational level,’ was utterly befuddled, but he dared not talk back, as the Wizards beside him had already started to praise enthusiastically.
“Using gravity as a scale and spaceti as the curtain, truly befitting of the Star of Magic, to co up with such a thod!” Lucas said with considerable admiration.
“Since the arrangent of the elents is determined by their internal structure, the council must have already clarified the structure of the elents, right?” a strikingly beautiful witch suddenly asked.
Lucas and the others also turned their gazes to Philip. In their minds, elents were the most basic substances that made up the world, the fundantal building blocks of everything.
However, this notion had already been shattered during their previous physics class. In their research on magnetic fields and electric fields, the Wizard teaching them introduced a substance smaller than the basic elents, which was the electric charge!
Furthermore, electric charges were widely present within elents and should be considered one of the fundantal substances comprising the elents.
“Of course!” Philip nodded with no small amount of pride, managing to whet everyone’s appetite but then switched the topic and continued, “The research on the internal structure of elents is currently the Council’s most cutting-edge magic theory and is still in the process of being perfected. Only council mbers are qualified to participate in it for the ti being!”
“Then how can one enter the council and beco a mber?” the glamorous witch asked again.
“Well, naturally, you have to pass an assessnt. Every mber is an elite, selected through evaluation!” Philip maintained his posture, implying that becoming a mber wasn’t an easy feat.
They were the core mbers of the council, with the right to vote on all major matters.
Now, in tis of war, these Wizards from outside the empire’s borders would have to go through a lengthy assessnt period to beco mbers.
At this point, Philip paused, aiming to inspire the foreign Wizards’ fighting spirit, to share their magical research’s achievents, and then he spoke again.
“Actually, there’s a shortcut to becoming a mber, and that’s to attain sufficiently high rit!”
“Like Master Lynn, for instance. He proposed the law of universal gravitation for Force Field Magic and received the council’s highest honor—the Corona dal, imdiately earning several Speakers’ nominations!”
Philip went on and on, and then comforted the crowd, saying that a magic prodigy like Dean Lynn was rare, and actually, one didn’t need to get a Corona dal to beco a mber. A Silver Moon dal, or even three Morning Star dals, would guarantee a nomination!
…
A chemistry class quickly ended amidst Philip’s boasting, with half the lesson spent regaling the Wizards from the empire with soone’s great achievents.
Starting from verifying the law of free fall with two spheres, to asuring the circumference of planets with the angle of the projection of icicles, he conveyed an attitude that with hard work, you too could be the next Star of Magic!
“Absurd, this is utterly absurd!” Monroe couldn’t help but blurt out indignantly as soon as he returned to the faction’s residence.
Those Wizards were actually saying that the continent they stood on was round and continuously rotating!
Had their minds been emptied by witchcraft?
How could they co up with such ludicrous statents!
If the continent were a sphere, then how would the people living at the bottom of the sphere manage to live without falling off headfirst?
Ivina also pondered this question. In the week she had been at Wizard College, every class she attended seed both novel and bizarre.
For example, the physics class included experints like free fall in a vacuum, spectrum splitting with a prism, and artificially creating rainbows, among others.
What surprised Ivina the most was that many of these so-called experints didn’t require the use of magic at all, the simplest being the creation of a rainbow, which only required a simple mist device and the right angle.
According to the Wizard who taught the class, the developnt of magical studies was actually the process of exploring the truths of the world, and magic was just a way for Wizards to more easily transform the laws governing the movent of all things into power!
But all these novel experints combined were still not as shocking as this planet theory!
Anyone hearing that the land beneath their feet was not flat but spherical would find it unbelievable!
According to the scriptures, the whole world was created by the benevolent Creator out of the void, with all the Morning Stars, including the Sun and Moon, revolving around the continent beneath their feet.
This was common knowledge within the entire empire!
Yet the world according to the Wizards was completely different; the land beneath their feet was not only spherical, but the Sun was actually the center of the entire system, with the other planets revolving around it, driven by gravitational forces.
The Wizard teaching the class also presented nurous ‘evidences.’
For instance, the phenonon of a lunar eclipse was the outline of the planet below blocking out the Moon, and when traveling by ship, if one used magic to observe a distant towering lighthouse, one would invariably see the top of the tower first, then the body of the tower, and so on…
The so-called Star of Magic, Lynn, even conducted a clever pendulum experint to demonstrate that the planet was rotating, and he used a tall tower and ice pillars raised above the sea to successfully calculate the circumference of the planet!
A full forty-three thousand two hundred kiloters!
Most crucially, they had just finished learning the laws of trigonotry and the formulas for calculating the circumference and area of a sphere in their math class. This ant that using these principles, she could easily calculate it herself!
With brilliant logical reasoning, rigorous math operations, and various pieces of evidence, Ivina suddenly didn’t know which side was correct.
Years of common knowledge told her the continent could not possibly be round, yet logical deduction seed to lean toward the other possibility.
After all, that star chart was simply too beautiful, with the Sun at the center, drawing the other planets with its absolute mass, orderly and regular, everything naturally in place.
Ivina turned her head to look at Monroe, wanting to find soone to share her inner confusion with, but she quickly stopped herself, knowing well that Monroe hadn’t been paying real attention to any of the classes, and it was already a struggle for him to wait until returning to their residence before starting to complain!
The Star of Magic, the ssenger of Doomsday, Lynn…
In her mind, Ivina thought about the most important target of this mission. Ever since she entered Fire Oil City, she heard this na ntioned almost every day.
She was tired of hearing the legendary deeds of Lynn, whether it was various powerful alchemical creations or new theories of magic, everything seed to be related to this Star of Magic.
As Ivina was pondering, Monroe suddenly stopped beside her, took out a glowing Crystal Ball from his bosom, and spoke joyfully.
“We’ve got contact from the Church! Ivina, keep watch for , I need to report the situation here to His Holiness, the Pope…”
