I Pioneered Scientific Magic-Chapter 277: Overcoming the Final Obstacle to Control the Kingdom!

The peculiar experiment with light dispersion piqued everyone's curiosity. They had never known that light could be composed of so many colors.

Is it only artificial light that possesses such characteristics? "Whether it's this artificial light or sunlight, they are indeed the same, belonging to polychromatic light," explained Lynn to the curious Elok and others.

The principle of a prism's spectral separation, in essence, lies in the different refractive indices of light colors within glass. Thus, when passing through a prism, each color of light is deviated in a particular direction, forming a gradient spectrum...

The apprentice wizards listened thoughtfully; Lynn's explanation was straightforward and easy to understand. Even those like Raydell, who didn't know magic, could grasp it.

"Wait, I seem to have seen something like this before..." Ham stared intently at the rainbow-colored light reflected from the prism, his face showing a pensive expression, then suddenly exclaimed, "Yes, just like... a rainbow?"

As Ham spoke, more and more people realized it too. Although the rainbow phenomenon wasn't extremely common, many had seen it before.

"Could there be mirrors in the sky?" Lydia raised her hand, asking before Lynn could respond.

This time, without waiting for Lynn's reply, Phillip explained, "It should be the refraction and reflection phenomena of water, right?"

The air was filled with a lot of water vapor, a fact well known to every wizard. Water surfaces also had the ability to refract and reflect light, so Phillip quickly understood its principle.

"Correct!" Lynn nodded, then handed the prism in his hand to Lydia. "As for the other characteristics of light, I leave it to you to explore."

Lydia excitedly took the prism and placed it under the light, continuously rotating it. The light inside the prism constantly flowed and reflected, changing in size and color.

Elok and others looked eagerly at Lynn. The headmaster had just handed the only piece of prism to Lydia. What were they supposed to do? This was too biased!

"Don't be so biased! Glass isn't hard to make, and you all know the formula. I taught it in chemistry class. If you want it, make one yourself. Studying the sunlight spectrum can be considered your fieldwork while you're out!" Lynn shrugged and casually said.

At the mention of fieldwork, Elok and his companions' faces instantly drooped, trying hard to recall the chemistry class Lynn had taught them recently.

What was the main component of glass again? Was it silicon dioxide?

"I've heard that within the city of Greenreel, many wizards are studying the mysteries of light. Even the councilors are very interested. You guys have quite a few opponents!" Lynn added.

Although the wizarding world had been busy with war matters lately, the council still paid a lot of attention to academic research. After all, it was the foundation of all magical powers.

With the gradual popularization of glass products, more and more wizards discovered its usefulness in research. For instance, the simplest concave-convex mirror could magnify or shrink objects in their eyes.

This meant that wizards could perceive things not only through magical senses but also visually observe the microscopic world that was previously invisible! 𝑓𝓇𝘦𝘦𝔀𝓮𝒷𝘯𝓸𝓋𝓮𝘭.𝓬𝓸𝘮

Lynn had no doubt that after this war, the 'magical' theories throughout the wizarding world would experience a leap in development! Hearing that many wizards, even the legendary councilors, were researching this, the apprentices instantly felt hopeless.

Meanwhile, Lydia was contemplating how to extract more theoretical knowledge from the headmaster than doing her own research. This would be much faster...

"Oh, Professor Phillip, how's the electromagnetic cannon you were researching?" Lynn suddenly remembered, turning to them and inquiring.

"We've understood the principle and even created a model. But in terms of power, it's a bit unsatisfactory. We can only shoot a hundred-gram projectile at a speed of a hundred meters per second," Phillip said somewhat helplessly.

The generator they had made could light a bulb, but it was too weak for the electromagnetic cannon. Without sufficient power, it was less useful than a cannon.

Lynn wasn't surprised by this. The generator would need several iterations to meet the electromagnetic cannon's requirements. Thinking for a moment, Lynn had someone bring a basket of black stones and an engraved plate.

"These are thunderstones and some magic runes representing electromagnetism. You can study how to use them!" Lynn explained.

Since the old methods weren't working, it was better to switch to a new approach!

These two things were results of Anthony's research for almost half his life. The thunderstone was like a natural battery, a super-powered one at that, while these electromagnetic runes were crucial for converting magic into electrical currents!

Upon hearing this, Phillip and the others suddenly felt enlightened.

This way, they could store excess electricity during normal days and then figure out how to extract it when needed for the electromagnetic cannon. They could even use thunderstones as the material for the rail, coat it with a layer of mithril outside, and carve electromagnetic runes...

In just a short ten seconds or so, many methods to improve the electromagnetic cannon flooded Phillip's mind. Many problems that had previously troubled him were easily solved!

With that in mind, Phillip hurriedly took his leave, taking along a few colleagues and the basket of thunderstones to conduct research.

The large light bulb in the castle illuminated the entire night, both a test and an intentional move by Lynn.

As a result, early the next day, rumors about electric lights spread rapidly throughout the Count's domain. Subsequently, these rumors became more exaggerated, with some solemnly claiming to have seen the wizard fly into the sky, pluck lightning and a gigantic rainbow from the clouds, and store them in a sphere and a gem!

Lynn didn't harshly refute these rumors. Instead, the firearms squad, training outside every day, was given a new task: creating artificial rainbows using the mist technique in the square. Lynn also taught this method to every curious child wanting to learn.

Changing perceptions often happened subtly. Lynn intended to show these people that wizards weren't scary, and the knowledge they shared wasn't a trap of the devil but an explanation of the laws governing everything. Even ordinary people could understand and apply it!

The next issue was how to overcome the final obstacle to controlling the kingdom—the Church's Archbishop, Anluke!
