Chapter 505: Anthony: No one knows Maxwell better than I do!
Lynn froze and relieved himself from the conjecture of the 'spell casting obstacle', and asked with a little worry. "What does the council think now? Did they think of a way to stop the riot? ”
Philip shook his head helplessly, in fact, the council was in chaos now, and the sudden loss of the ability to perceive an element like this had never happened in the history of magic.
It is said that Speaker Vittorio summoned a lot of people and examined them physically and mentally, but nothing new was found for the time being.
The only thing that is certain is that all of these people have questioned the nature of optoelectronics, and many have even directly participated in the discussion of the wave-particle controversy and published several papers in newspapers.
Philip paused, then continued. "Now, many wizards who support the particle theory have suggested that the wave theory be banned in order to stop the spread of 'spellcasting disorder'......"
The councillors are also considering this suggestion, after all, the impact of this dispute is too great, and this strange 'spell casting barrier' has made many wizards feel terrified, and even several speakers have expressed concern about it.
Although the main force of the church has long since collapsed, Ella, who has fled the territory, is always a great threat.
And the thunder spell is now a very critical force in the entire magic system, and it has a great advantage in the transmission of information, and the derived electromagnetic field is also an important factor in restraining nuclear forces!
"So a couple of speakers asked me to ask for your advice." Philip said cautiously.
"No, it must not be done! Tell them that I am unequivocally against banning the Volatility Doctrine! Lynn vetoed directly. We are not a church, and we cannot stop the normal study of demons ......"
"And...... It's too late to ban now! ”
After nearly two months of disputes, coupled with the operation of the two schools pulling each other's heads to endorse each other, nearly seventy percent of the great wizards and the schools they led were involved, plus those who were originally watching the excitement, but in the end they were inexplicably suffering from the thunder wizards and the terrifying spell-casting obstacles', which made this dispute even more known.
Even if they ban the Fluctuation Theory on the surface, they can't stop the wizards from conducting research in private, so it's better to let them argue generously, and the collision of ideas will also help break the convention.
However, Lynn also asked Philip to return to Parliament, asking them to manipulate public opinion to control the intensity of the dispute a little, so as not to cause large-scale bloodshed.
This is not impossible, and there have been many conflicts in the history of magic due to academic disputes.
For example, more than 20 years ago, the controversy over the origin of the fire element almost caused the two opposing schools to merge, and in the end, it was the great wizard Arad who defeated the opponent in a heads-up with the newly developed six-ring magic [Fire Elemental Storm], and forced the opponent to be 'convinced'.
Even in the previous life, the controversy over the wave-particle nature of light caused a group of bigwigs in the textbooks to spray each other for three hundred years!
The reason for this is that the contradiction between the two theories is almost irreconcilable if it is justified by common sense.
What is a wave?
It is a perturbation of a physical quantity or physical quantity that propagates in a specific form in space.
To put it more simply, in the eyes of wizards, this thing is a continuous and inseparable existence.
And particles are the smallest components of matter that can exist in a free state, one by one!
Because of this, because you can't say that something is continuous and scattered, the brain simply can't imagine that kind of existence, just as you can't say that a cat is both alive and dead......
But the microcosm is so abrasive, and you need to completely discard the so-called common sense of the macrocosm in order to get a glimpse of the mysteries.
Lynn shook her head and couldn't help but look at the manuscript on the table.
During this time, he has also carried out preliminary research and experiments in the microscopic field, and he was thinking of finding an opportunity to publish some papers first, but now the inexplicable 'spell casting disorder' made him hesitate.
If these research results on quantum superposition and entanglement states are released, the impact will not only be as simple as lightning wizards, and maybe a large number of elemental wizards will directly lose their ability to cast spells.
That's the real magic crisis!
Lynn was thinking when a sturdy Garder falcon suddenly flew in through the wide open window, stranded on her desk with a white letter hanging from her feet.
Lynn recognized it as a communication eagle at a glance.
Although temporary communication base stations composed of patrol airships have spread all over the continent and achieved nationwide emergency communications within 15 minutes, some secret information is not convenient to be transmitted in this way, and many schools still retain the tradition of captive communication eagles for communication.
Philip, who was on the side, noticed that the beautiful feather on the right side of the Garde falcon was engraved with a lightning mark.
"This sign should be Master Anthony's, right?" Philip said with great interest that in recent days, the founder of the 'electrotherapy induction method', the proposer of the photoelectric effect, can be said to be famous.
As the leader of the light particle theory, he actually turned his head and believed in the wave theory, which made many wizards who watched the excitement dumbfounded.
Philip's mind is also more inclined to the theory of light particles, and he really can't understand why the other party suddenly made such a crazy move, maybe the truth is in this letter.
Lynn then took the sealed letter, and after passing the little magic on the envelope, she began to read it.
In this letter, Anthony elaborated on their research on electric and magnetic fields during this time, and said that he had solved the fourth equation of Maxwell's equations, and deduced from it an astonishing fact that light is an electromagnetic wave with a unique frequency.
And successfully used this method to create light!
"No wonder ......" Lynn smiled, he could imagine Anthony's emotions of collapse and surprise at that time, since he understood that light is electromagnetic waves, it is not difficult to understand that he suddenly chose to embrace wave science.
In addition, in the letter, Anthony also made a lot of sycophants, saying that these research results were based on his Maxwell's equations and calculus formulas, and then euphemistically said that he had discovered a new model to explain the internal structure of the elements, which may be very subtle from the star orbital formula he had proposed earlier......
Of course, Lynn knew that this subtle difference was mostly a world of difference, and Anthony's purpose in writing the letter was obviously to test his tone.
It is estimated that he is worried that he will oppose it, and even use his influence to block it, so let's ask my opinion first.
Lynn shook his head amusedly, and after thinking for a moment, he wrote a reply letter, affirming Anthony's research achievements in the field of electromagnetism and expressing his support for the other party's proposal of a more novel atomic model to explain microscopic phenomena.
At the end, he added the implication that "light and electricity do have certain wave properties, but the particle characteristics they exhibit cannot be ignored".
Philip, who was extremely curious, quietly glanced at the contents of the letter, and then his pupils constricted, just in time to see the last sentence that Lynn was writing, and his heart was suddenly shaken.
Could it be that the dean also supports the fluctuation theory?
On the other side, Lynn had already put the envelope away and tied it to the feet of the communication eagle.
Seeing this, Philip hurriedly said goodbye and left, but after walking out of the room, he was still a little uneasy, and even if he wanted to use electromagnetic communication magic, he discussed it with a few of his friends.
However, this time the spell failed......
Philip opened his eyes suddenly, his face pale for a moment, and he suddenly realized that he could no longer perceive electric charges and magnetic fields.
"It's over......" Philip muttered to himself, and he had contracted the 'Fluctuating Plague'!
……
A few hours later, the city of oil, inside a luxurious manor.
The two great wizards at the center of the whirlpool of public opinion, Anthony and Jeffrey, are gathered here.
"Do you think Speaker Lynn will approve of our wave theory?" Jeffrey asked, slightly uneasy.
In his opinion, the biggest obstacle to the Wave Theory is undoubtedly this magic star!
Thanks to the photoelectric effect proposed by Anthony, the two things are tied together, and someone has a whim to rework the model of the internal structure of the elements with the theory of waves, which is in serious conflict with some of the magical theories proposed by Speaker Lynn.
In this regard, Jeffrey was also very helpless, and even doubted whether allowing Anthony to join the Light Wave School was the right choice.
The Council has been considering awarding a second Corona Medal to Speaker Lynn in recognition of his outstanding contributions to the field of elements and optics.
At such a critical time, they stepped in and said that part of the magic star's research philosophy was wrong, and who didn't feel angry?
Jeffrey had no doubt that Speaker Lynn only needed one sentence to suppress the Fluctuation Doctrine he had painstakingly developed, and the influence of the other party in the magical realm was too great!
The law of free fall, gravitational force, the speed of light, the geostrophic deflection force...... It can be said that the rapid development of magic science in recent years has completely relied on the various magic theories proposed by this magic star, and these theories have almost never been missed before!
"I guess so." Anthony hesitantly replied that his theory of optoelectronics was derived from Maxwell's equations.
He could think of the fact that light was electromagnetic waves, and Lynn, who told him this formula, should also be able to think of it.
Although he said this, Anthony's heart was also a little bottomless, after all, it was not easy for an authority figure in magic to take the initiative to admit that his research theory was wrong and give up the glory at his fingertips.
As he was worried, a shrill chirp rang out over the manor, and Anthony looked up to see his messenger flying back.
"Take a look!" Jeffrey was also very anxious, and the Gardel eagle had just fallen, so he hurried to let Anthony check the letter.
Anthony's movements were also not slow, and after cracking the vigilance magic arranged on it, he opened the letter, and after reading it for a while, the expression on his face gradually changed from solemn to relaxed.
"How?" Jeffrey asked.
"That's it!" Anthony's words calmed Jeffrey's restless heart, and then he handed the letter over without care.
Jeffrey took it, glanced at it carefully, and when he saw the last sentence, 'Light and electricity do have a certain fluctuating nature', a slight smile appeared on his face.
As for the second half of the sentence, Jeffrey didn't pay much attention to it, he couldn't expect the magic star to take the initiative to admit that his elemental model was wrong in the letter, right? You have to find a staircase to go down, don't you?
In fact, Speaker Lynn's endorsement of the Fluctuation Doctrine was completely beyond Jeffrey's expectations!
"As I said before, Speaker Lynn is very open-minded, not the kind of person who is stubborn and secretly makes stumbling blocks to suppress opposition to doctrine." Anthony said with a smile.
He remembered that the star of magic had publicly stated on several occasions that anyone was welcome to refute his magical theories with the results of rigorous experiments.
Jeffrey smiled bitterly, who wouldn't say polite words, his fluctuation theory has hit a lot of walls in the parliament, most of the members are staunch supporters of the particle school, if it weren't for Anthony's sudden rebellion, the current situation would only be even more difficult!
"Master Jeffrey!" An apprentice knocked lightly on the door and walked in, interrupting the conversation before reporting respectfully. "We have just received a notice from the council that this year's academic symposium will be held half a month in advance."
"Looks like the council can't wait!" Anthony raised an eyebrow, but yes, more than half of the Thunder Wizards lost the ability to sense electric charges, and the Speakers were not in a hurry.
Jeffrey bowed slightly, it was time to end this long-standing dispute.
What a fluctuating plague, he thinks it should be called particle imbalance!
……
Two weeks have passed in a blink of an eye, and since Anthony, a key figure in the particle theory, suddenly switched to the shocking news of the fluctuation theory, the public opinion of the entire magic kingdom has strangely calmed down.
This is naturally due to the fact that the parliament has increased the censorship system of the newspapers, at least the same scolding war as before, can no longer be published in the major newspapers, and if you want to publish arguments about optics and electricity, you must have rigorous logical deduction or experimental argumentation.
As a result, even the sales of newspapers have decreased a lot, which makes the editors of major newspapers sigh for a while.
However, this calm is obviously only superficial, and the secret dispute continues, but both universities are gathering strength to completely refute their opponents at this year's academic symposium......
Under such an undercurrent, September quietly arrived, and tens of thousands of wizards from all over the continent rushed to the royal capital to prepare for the biggest academic event ever!
