Chapter 582 -505 Anthony: No One Understands Maxwell Better Than I Do!_2
Philip’s heart inclined even more towards the particle theory of light, unable to comprehend why the other party would suddenly make such a crazy move—perhaps the truth lay within this letter.
Lynn subsequently took the tightly sealed letter, unsealed it with a small magic spell on the envelope, and began to read.
In this letter, Anthony detailed their recent studies on electric and magnetic fields, stating that he had solved the fourth equation of Maxwell’s equations and derived from it an astonishing fact—light is an electromagnetic wave with a unique frequency.
And he had successfully created light using this method!
“No wonder…” Lynn smiled, imagining the mixture of collapse and elation Anthony must have felt at that moment; now that it was clear that light was an electromagnetic wave, the sudden shift to embracing wave theory made sense.
Additionally, in the letter, Anthony heavily flattered his own efforts, stating that these research outcomes were based on his Maxwell’s Equations and calculus formulations, and subtly hinted that he had discovered a new model to explain the internal structure of elements, which might be slightly different from the previously proposed Star Orbital Model…
Lynn, of course, realized this ‘slight difference’ might be vast. Anthony’s purpose in writing, evidently, was to gauge his reaction.
He possibly feared opposition or even using influence to suppress the new theory, hence he wanted to ask for Lynn’s opinion first.
Lynn chuckled and shook his head. After pondering for a moment, he penned a reply letter, affirming Anthony’s research achievements in the electromagnetic domain and expressing support for introducing a more novel atomic model to explain microscopic phenomena.
He carefully added at the end, “Light and electricity indeed possess certain wave-like properties, but their particle characteristics should not be ignored” as a hint.
Curious, Philip stealthily glanced at the contents of the letter, and as his pupils contracted, he caught sight of Lynn’s final sentence, causing his mind to tremble.
Could it be that the Dean also supported wave theory?
On the other side, Lynn had already placed the letter in the envelope and tied it to the carrier eagle’s leg.
Seeing this, Philip hurriedly took his leave but remained perturbed as he left the room and immediately wanted to use Electromagnetic Communication Magic to discuss the issue with some of his friends.
However, this time the spell failed…
Philip suddenly opened his eyes, his face turning pale as he realized he could no longer sense charges and magnetic fields.
“It’s all over…” Philip muttered to himself, realizing he had also contracted the ‘wave plague’!
…
Several hours later, in a luxurious manor in Fire Oil City.
At the center of a swirling controversy, the two great Wizards, Anthony and Jeffrey, were gathered.
“Do you think Speaker Lynn will approve of our wave theory?” Jeffrey asked anxiously.
In his view, the greatest obstacle to wave theory undoubtedly lay with this star of magic!
Thanks to Anthony proposing the photoelectric effect, tying these two concepts together, and someone’s burst of inspiration to remodel the internal structure of elements based on wave theory, this conflicted severely with some of Speaker Lynn’s proposed theories in magical studies.
Jeffrey felt quite helpless about this and even doubted whether allowing Anthony to join the Light Wave faction was the right choice.
Given that the council was considering awarding Lynn a second Corona Medal to commend his exceptional contributions in elemental and optics fields,
At such a critical time, their intervention, declaring some of the star of magic’s research concepts incorrect, would irk anyone.
Jeffrey had no doubts that Chairman Lynn only needed one word to kill the Wave Theory he had painstakingly developed, as his influence in the field of magic was simply too great!
Laws of free fall, universal gravitation, speed of light calculations, Coriolis force… It could be said that the rapid development of magical studies in recent years was wholly reliant on the various magical theories proposed by this star of magic, and these theories had almost never been wrong before!
“It should be,” Anthony hesitated as he replied, his theory of light and electricity being derived from Maxwell’s equations.

Since light is an electromagnetic wave, this, Lynn, who had given him the formula, should have thought of it too.
While he said this, Anthony’s heart was somewhat uncertain; after all, getting an authority in magical studies to admit their research was wrong and to give up easily obtainable glory was not an easy task.
Just as he was worried, a sharp cry rang out over the manor, and Anthony looked up to see his messenger had returned.
“Quick, look!” Jeffrey was also very eager, and as soon as the Gard hawk had landed, he hurriedly asked Anthony to check the letter.
Anthony was quick too. After decrypting the guard magic placed on it, he opened the letter and after a while, his expression gradually relaxed from solemn.
“How is it?” Jeffrey asked.
“It’s settled!” With one sentence, Anthony calmed Jeffrey’s restless heart, then carelessly handed the letter over.
Jeffrey took it, scanning it carefully. When he saw the final sentence ‘light and electricity indeed have wave-like properties,’ a slight smile appeared on his face.
As for the latter part of the sentence, Jeffrey didn’t pay much attention to it; one couldn’t expect the star of magic to admit his elemental model was wrong in the letter, could they? He must find some way to step down, right?
Indeed, for Chairman Lynn to so candidly acknowledge the Wave Theory was entirely beyond Jeffrey’s expectations!
“I told you before, Chairman Lynn is very open-minded and not one to stubbornly stick to his own views, tripping up those who oppose his theories behind the scenes,” Anthony said with a smile.
He remembered that this star of magic had repeatedly publicly expressed his welcome for anyone to refute his magical theories with rigorous experimental results.
Jeffrey grimaced slightly. Pleasantries are easy to say, but his Wave Theory had run into many obstacles at the council, with most of the councilors being staunch supporters of the particle theory. If it weren’t for Anthony suddenly switching sides, his situation would only be more difficult!
“Master Jeffrey!” An apprentice gently knocked and came in, interrupting their conversation, then respectfully reported, “We just received a notice from the council that this year’s academic conference will be held half a month early.”
“It seems the council can hardly wait!” Anthony raised his eyebrows, but that made sense. With more than half the Thunder Mages losing their charge-sensing ability, the chairmen couldn’t help but be anxious.
Jeffrey nodded slightly, it was time to end this long-standing dispute.
What wave plague, he thought it should rightly be called ‘Particle Imbalance Syndrome’!
…
Two weeks passed in the blink of an eye, and since the shocking news that Anthony, a key figure in particle theory, had suddenly switched to Wave Theory, the public opinion in the Magic Kingdom had strangely calmed.
This was naturally because the council had intensified its scrutiny of newspaper editorial policies, at least the kind of blatant mud-slinging that had occurred before could no longer be openly published in major newspapers. To publish points related to optics and electrics, one needed rigorous logical deduction or experimental proof.
This led to a drop in newspaper sales, causing editors at major news agencies to sigh in distress.
However, this calm was clearly only superficial. The dispute continued in the shadows, with both major theories gathering strength, preparing to completely refute the opponent at this year’s academic conference…
Amid these undercurrents, September quietly arrived, and tens of thousands of wizards from across the continent flocked to the capital, ready to attend the grandest academic event in history!
