Chapter 334 -322: Legendary Magic—Sunshine Everywhere!
The uncontrollable experimental accident had caused significant casualties, but the Wizards gathered around did not retreat. After reinforcing their personal protections, they excitedly discussed that terrifying beam of light…
In the process of researching magic, it often comes with risks. Various accidents are quite normal, so there are not a few Wizards who suffer from severe injuries, blindness, amputations, deafness, or even death due to poisoning or explosions.

However, this does not stop their research and passion for magic.
With the standards of Magic Potion studies in the Wizard Land, as long as one is not dead on the spot, they can generally be saved.
“Such powerful magic…” Rafael observed the destroyed houses and the solid tiles cut open on the ground, commenting with a sigh.
The Wizards present finally understood why Lynn had awarded Glenn the Morning Star Medal. It was not because of his experiment in measuring the speed of light with mirrors, but for this focused magic!
...
Considering the destruction caused by this street, the focused beam of light could easily cut through houses and break the Mage Shield within fifty meters, and within a hundred meters, it could cause fatal injuries to unprotected enemies…
Even if expanded to three hundred meters away, the intense light could still blind or burn a person.
“This is at least fourth-tier magic, no, fifth-tier, right?” Sanchez murmured.
The power of the beam itself is one thing, but the real terror lies in its speed. A hundred kilometers distance is covered in the blink of an eye, rendering avoidance impossible; it’s perfect for a sneak attack, hitting the target every time.
Even in head-on combat, it is akin to holding a weapon with an effective killing range of over a hundred meters. A flurry of slashes, and there would be nowhere to hide!
Glenn was also somewhat in disbelief that his focused magic could be so terrifying.
He had conducted related experiments in the past, but he had never concentrated the beam to such an astonishing degree.
Of course, this was not solely his own merit; Anthony’s deployment of Thunder Magic was indispensable. Glenn alone could not have produced such an intense beam of light.
“It seems that from now on, light element magic can’t just be used as a support!” Aurora said with a smile, her mind already thinking of many ways to use the focused magic.
Her previously established system of Polarization Magic, though very powerful and enigmatic, was often used for support—such as invisibility, visual deception, magic projection, creating blinding light, and so on. Now, it can completely be used as a main combat method!
“Congratulations, Glenn, you will become the first person to be nominated for the Morning Star Medal at this academic symposium!” Rafael congratulated.
Glenn had a bittersweet expression. He did not expect that his much-anticipated experiment to measure the speed of light had achieved no results, while the focused magic, which he had not cared much about initially, had earned him the Morning Star Medal.
However, the destruction of the street and the casualties caused by the experimental accident also gave him a tremendous headache. He would have to pay for these damages, and luckily, no one had died, or he would have been in big trouble.
“Thank you for your guidance, Master Lynn…” Glenn did not forget to thank Lynn, who had timely reminded him.
Before, Glenn had envied and even felt jealous of the widely acclaimed Star of Magic. Now, it was only admiration left.
Lynn’s depth and breadth of knowledge far surpassed Glenn’s imagination. It was obvious from his accurate observation that mirrors could not fully reflect light and the phenomenon of light scattering that Lynn might have conducted similar experiments long ago.
“The idea was your own, I must say that both the light-concentrating magic and the mirror reflection test for measuring the speed of light were quite good,” Lynn said with a smile.
“It’s just a pity the experiment still failed,” Glenn sighed.
Lynn smiled and did not respond, for in fact, there weren’t any significant issues with Glenn’s idea—it was truly possible to roughly measure the speed of light.
Of course, this was predicated on a sufficiently fast reaction time!
According to data from his previous life, light would take approximately three ten-thousandths of a second to travel one hundred kilometers, he wasn’t sure if even legendary wizards could perceive this slight change, and now it seemed they obviously could not!
He had overestimated the reaction capabilities of these wizards…
However, Glenn’s light-concentrating magic had also given him a pleasant surprise.
The convenience of magic was indeed unexpected, and Lynn couldn’t help but think of the super-large “Solar Concentration Mirror” the federation had set up in the uninhabited area in his previous life, the generated high temperatures could instantly melt steel, and if focused at one point, could even reach several times the temperature of a star’s surface…
Lynn felt that he could perhaps fly into the sky and perform a large-scale light-concentrating magic to recreate this aspect, and that would truly be “Sunshine Everywhere”!
Thinking of this, Lynn astonishingly discovered that he seemed to have grasped another legendary spell, but it required specific conditions like the season and weather, and it would only be powerful enough if used at noon in the summer…
Perhaps he could even go a step further and create real laser magic…
While Lynn was contemplating this new magic, a group of wizards were discussing the failed mirror reflection experiment.
In fact, there were not a few wizards who coveted the Silver Moon Medal and had thought up all sorts of bizarre methods to complete the beam measurement. However, a common theme was the creation of a sufficiently long distance to record the time it took for light to traverse it, but reality threw cold water on their endeavors.
This time Glenn’s experiment had already reached the pinnacle in all aspects, even the Legendary Councilmen had lent a hand; they really couldn’t think of a way to simulate an even longer distance to measure the speed of light…
“Master Lynn, is there really a way to measure the speed of light?” Sanchez inquired with bewilderment.
The assembly of wizards all turned their gaze to the star of magic.
“Of course, there is!” Lynn nodded, paused for a moment, and then continued, “Actually, my method is not complicated, without such a grand spectacle…”
This only made Rafael and the others more curious, but Lynn just shook his head, teasingly adding, “The apparatus for the experiment will take some time to prepare, you’ll find out in a few days!”
Rafael and the others were speechless, but there wasn’t much they could do, so they could only guess in their hearts what the ‘not complicated’ method Lynn had mentioned could be.
Harrov wildly speculated, wondering if it could be that some magic was used to slow down the speed of light to fulfill the measurement requirements, or if creating a beam of strong light to shoot toward the moon and then estimating based on the time and distance it took to reach it.
Some wizards even maliciously thought that the star of magic was just putting on an enigmatic front, and it would be amusing if his experiment turned out to be a failure like Glenn’s…
