Chapter 237: Anthony: Are you Lynn Maxwell?
"This is the answer to electricity and magnetism—I call it the Maxwell equations!" Lynn's indifferent voice echoed beyond time and space.
Anthony's gaze firmly locked onto the complex series of mathematical formulas in front of him. Without annotations or explanations, he couldn't discern the meaning behind each symbol.
Yet, the intricate mathematical equations and Lynn's words convinced him that profound electromagnetic theories were embedded within.
"Maxwell's equations..." Anthony murmured softly. He understood that there's no such thing as a free lunch; it was time for him to give back!
However, Anthony couldn't fathom what knowledge he possessed that could rival the ultimate answer in electromagnetic magic.
Was it a formula converting magical power into lightning? Or a study of thunder magic's insights? Or perhaps alchemical runes that could manipulate lightning and magnetism...
Anthony fell into deep confusion. How could he present something so shallow?
The other thing he valued most was the entire wizarding community, but he knew right away that the "Society of Mystical Arts" only recruited elites and wouldn't regard his apprentices.
After pondering for a while, Anthony seemed to suddenly realize something. His eyes gleamed with determination as he prostrated before Lynn, his voice trembling. "Your selfless guidance—I have no way to repay it. Please allow me to become your disciple and learn the mysteries of electromagnetic magic alongside you!"
Lynn was dumbfounded. He dangled the Maxwell equations as bait, hoping to exchange them for Anthony's research findings on thunder magic. After all, Anthony had developed the Hexa-Ring Thunder Magic, and surely, he had unique insights into the principles of magical and electromagnetic conversion.
But he never expected Anthony, an old dog, to propose becoming his student.
Unbeknownst to Lynn, after Anthony had seen Faraday cages, understood the principles of thunder generation, and examined planetary magnetic fields, he had lost all confidence in his research results.
Apart from an equal exchange, the only way Anthony could think of to continue receiving explanations from Lynn was through a master-disciple relationship!Diiscover new stories at nove/lbin(.)c/om
Regarding age... Anthony wouldn't judge by appearances. He was aware that some immensely powerful witches typically used unicorn blood and essence of magewood to brew a special alchemical potion to maintain their optimal appearance.
So, Anthony speculated that the other party was most likely an artful grand wizard, perhaps even a legendary wizard who enjoyed acting younger than their actual age...
It seemed possible now.
However, this didn't mean he could instantly make someone grasp certain knowledge; at most, it accelerated the process.
Knowing and mastering were two different things!
This method was akin to forcibly stuffing the contents of a book into someone's mind. To truly understand, it required slow learning and research.
...
About ten minutes later, Anthony's consciousness broke free from the magical domain. Several scholars and wizards who had been waiting nearby immediately surrounded him.
"Teacher... how are you? Are you alright?" Flora asked with great concern. Shortly after activating that ring, Anthony's expression started changing drastically, and his body seemed to tremble, looking quite unwell.
"I'm fine, no, I'm extremely well!" Anthony stood up from his seat, his face filled with excitement. At this moment, he didn't resemble an old man with graying hair; his entire being seemed infused with new vigor.
Flora and the others were taken aback by Anthony's excessive reaction. Following that, they sensed a strong surge of magical power emanating from him.
Arcs of electricity began manifesting around Anthony, and metallic objects in the chamber trembled as if drawn by some force, rapidly flying toward him.
Amidst intense thunderclaps, iron spoons, ornaments, sword edges began distorting and dissolving under temperatures of tens of thousands of degrees and the influence of magnetic fields...
Anthony's magical energy surged, escalating continuously, surpassing his previous levels, reaching a new plateau...
