Chapter 322: Legendary Magic - Sunshine Illumination!
An experiment gone awry led to considerable casualties, yet the wizards gathered around didn't disperse. Strengthening their personal shields, they excitedly discussed the horrifying beam that had just manifested...
In the pursuit of magic, risks often accompany the journey. Various accidents are considered a norm. Hence, wizards sustaining severe injuries, blindness, limb severances, deafening shocks, and even deaths due to poison or explosions are not uncommon.
However, this didn't deter their research and passion for magic.
Given the level of wizarding pharmaceuticals, as long as one didn't perish on the spot, most injuries were salvageable.
"What powerful magic..." Raphael commented, observing the demolished structures and the solid bricks sliced through on the ground, expressing his awe.
The wizards present finally understood why Lynn had awarded Glenn the Morning Star Medal. It wasn't solely for his experiment measuring the speed of light using mirrors, but for this focusing magic!
Judging by the destruction along this street, the focused beam could effortlessly slice houses within fifty meters, breach Mage Shields, and cause fatal harm to unprotected enemies within a hundred meters...
Even expanded to three hundred meters, the intense light could blind or burn people.
"This is at least a fourth circle, no, fifth circle magic, isn't it?" Sanchez pondered.
The power of the beam itself was one thing, but its true horror lay in its speed. Traveling a hundred kilometers in an instant, it offered no chance for evasion, making it perfect for precise ambushes.
Even in direct combat, wielding a weapon with an effective range exceeding a hundred meters, it left barely any room for escape!
Glenn, too, found it hard to believe the terror his focusing magic wielded.
He had conducted related experiments before, but never had he concentrated the beam to such alarming extents.
Of course, this wasn't solely his achievement. Anthony's Thunder Magic played an indispensable role. Glenn alone couldn't produce such intense beams.
"It seems light elemental magic can no longer be restricted to mere support!" Aurora chimed in, already contemplating numerous uses for the focusing magic.
While her previously established polarized magic system was formidable and enigmatic, it was mostly used for support—concealment, visual deception, magical projection, inducing blindness through intense light, and the like. Now, it could serve as the primary means in battles!
Perhaps it could be taken further to create true laser magic...
As Lynn contemplated the new magic, the group of wizards discussed the failed mirror reflection experiment.
In truth, numerous wizards aimed to measure light speed, hoping to acquire the Silver Moon Medal. Their ideas were diverse, but all revolved around a central argument—creating a sufficiently long distance and finding a means to record the time taken by light to traverse it. Reality, however, doused their hopes.
Glenn's experiment this time had reached the epitome in all aspects. Even the legendary councilors had intervened, yet they couldn't conceive any method to simulate a longer distance for light speed measurement...
"Master Lynn, is there truly a way to measure light speed?" Sanchez asked, puzzled.
The other wizards present turned their gaze to this magical luminary.
"Of course!" Lynn nodded. After a pause, Lynn continued, "Actually, my method isn't that grand..."
This further piqued Raphael's curiosity, but Lynn shook their head, teasingly adding, "The apparatus for the experiment requires a bit more preparation time. In any case, you'll know in a few days!"
Raphael and the others felt speechless but had no choice but to speculate internally about Lynn's supposedly 'not so complicated' method.
Harof, with an imaginative mind, wondered if it involved using a magic to slow down the speed of light to fulfill the measurement's requirement. Or perhaps creating a powerful light beam directed at the moon, calculating based on the time and distance it traveled.
Some wizards even maliciously thought that this magical luminary was merely playing tricks. If the subsequent experiment turned out like Glenn's failure, it would be quite comical...
