Chapter 320: A Bold Move... Encompassing a Half-City Vacuum Field!

Raphael, upon landing from the sky, uttered words that left everyone present stunned.

"This experiment might be challenging to proceed further."

"Noble Master, what exactly happened? Could it be the refraction angle of light?" Nancy anxiously inquired, despite confirming meticulously that each mirror was placed according to the blueprint.

Before Raphael could respond, Glenn sighed. "Perhaps the light has weakened?"

"Yes!" Raphael nodded. "I just confirmed from above; the beam you created, after reflecting off the seventy-third mirror, has weakened to the point of being unrecognizable to the naked eye."

"It's decaying so rapidly?!" Glenn's face turned pale. If the light could penetrate three or four hundred mirrors, there might have been a way to compensate by enlisting more wizards to create a more potent beam.

However, with just seventy-three mirrors traversed, merely a fraction of the distance, at this rate of decay, they'd need to amplify the beam tenfold or even a hundredfold. How could that be possible?

"Lord Lynn, I believe you might know what's happening," Raphael turned to Lynn, seeking an explanation.

All eyes turned to the star of magic, recalling Lynn's earlier evaluation of this experiment.

Feasible, yet unfeasible...

Lynn didn't beat around the bush this time, explaining, "Extending the path of light through reflection is feasible, but mirrors, while reflecting, inevitably lose a portion of energy each time."

"So, should we reduce the number of mirrors and increase the distance of each reflection?" one wizard swiftly proposed.

"No, that won't work at all," Glenn sighed. "Light can't propagate over extended distances."

He had experimented with this before, which is why he had reduced the distance between two mirrors to about a hundred meters.

"That's because elements present in the air also reflect and absorb light, and light itself doesn't propagate in parallel but disperses in all directions, which is why we see brightness..." Lynn continued explaining.

In other words, as long as light is visible, it means it has dispersed, reflecting into their eyes. Raphael immediately grasped Lynn's point, but then countered suddenly.

"That should be the case. So how does sunlight traverse millions of kilometers to reach this eternal star?"

With Raphael's reminder, many wizards noticed the 'flaw' in Lynn's words. If light were continuously decaying, sunlight couldn't possibly reach here!

The diviners had calculated the distance between the eternal star and the sun, an incredibly astounding figure, even the closest point being tens of millions of kilometers away!

"Beyond our planet, in the vastness of space, elements are exceedingly rare, and light doesn't lose energy in a vacuum. After reaching this star, it's merely scattered and absorbed by elements; it doesn't disappear..." Lynn shook their head.

Lynn's explanation dissolved the doubts, but consecutive difficulties left Glenn and others utterly perplexed.

With this, the issue of light intensity decaying with distance seemed unsolvable. Glenn contemplated intensely, unable to figure out how to make light visible after crossing a hundred kilometers.

Would they have to admit defeat?

Glenn felt extremely reluctant. He had prepared so much, presented such a grand scheme, only to fail in the end...

Just then, a thunderous voice echoed like a bell in everyone's ears. "Then make these obstructing elements vanish, create a sufficiently large vacuum area, simulating the environment of the universe. Wouldn't that work?"

All eyes turned toward the direction of the voice, discovering several legendary council members heading their way. Surprisingly, it was Harof speaking!

"Lord Harof!" Glenn was pleasantly surprised.

Indeed, by creating a vacuum field covering the distance of light propagation, it could significantly reduce the weakening of light intensity.

Only legendary wizards like Harof could propose such an absurd yet remarkably effective solution!

Following Harof's suggestion, the wizards gathered there began offering suggestions to Glenn.

For instance, a thousand mirrors were way too many; they could easily increase the distance of each reflection to a kilometer, requiring just a hundred mirrors!

Even Anthony stepped forward, deeply interested in this experiment of measuring light speed, proposing to use thunder magic to create an even more powerful light source...

Amidst the chatter, one problem after another was resolved, creating an atmosphere of passionate magical research that Lynn found remarkably comforting.

Though some were merely spectators, even waiting for a spectacle, there were quite a few wizards focused solely on magical research, aiming to understand the speed of light.

Glenn, too, regained his composure, modifying the position and angle of each mirror on the blueprint, reducing their number to a hundred, preparing for another experiment with a more potent light source!

"Those not involved, step back. All great wizards, stay!" Harof solemnly declared. Such extensive elimination of elements, even for a legend like him, was impossible alone. It required the collective effort of everyone.

Preparations took another hour before finally being declared complete.

Anthony took the lead, flickering thunderlight appearing in his palm, growing brighter and more intense. Both civilians and wizards squinted; the light had become too dazzling to behold...

"Let's begin!" Harof's voice, slightly intensified, resonated across every corner of the city.

Simultaneously, twenty great wizards and three legends cast their spells. Elements around them were swiftly expelled by vast magical force. In just three seconds, a vacuum field encompassing nearly half the city silently took shape!

"What a grand move..." Lynn sighed. The wizards' creativity and practical abilities far exceeded their expectations. Yet, swiftly refocusing, they raised their hand, expanding their domain, completing the part of the vacuum route they were responsible for.
