I Created Scientific Magic

In the midst of everyone's questioning voices, Lynn did not rush to explain but instead replied with a question of his own.

"You all should know that light can be reflected, right?"

The wizards in the auditorium nodded their heads, as reflection is a basic property of light, which is also the principle behind most Polarization Magic applications.

"The colors we see are actually the result of light shining on an object and then being reflected into our eyes, where it is recognized by the photoreceptor cells," Lynn began to explain. "And human sensory cells can only distinguish three colors: red, green, and blue. Because the visible sunlight spectrum is evenly mixed, it appears colorless to our eyes..."

"Wait, Master Lynn, if that's the case, wouldn't everything look the same color under the same light?" Sanchez couldn't help but interject.

"Of course not, because some of the light is absorbed by the object. What we see is only the reflected part of the visible light..." Lynn spoke up.

To be more precise, it is after the light reflected by the object enters the human eye and is converted into an electrical signal on the retina, which is then transmitted to the brain through the optic nerve. The so-called color is just humanity's definition of the visual effect of a particular frequency band in the visible light spectrum...

On this account, after mastering the electromagnetic force, he had verified it in Iyeta and naturally had full confidence.

Lynn's words echoed throughout the auditorium, and the arguments and discussions below grew louder.

"This theory is... astounding!" Rafael looked at Lynn and couldn't help but say, "Does that mean that this world is actually devoid of color?"

Previously, they believed that elements inherently had certain colors and that objects composed of these elements would display corresponding color spectrums, with light only allowing them to see these colors that existed inherently, or one could say, were attached to the surfaces of elements.

However, Lynn's explanation was completely opposite; all colors came from light, and what they saw was the light rejected by objects. Could the absorbed light not be visible? Your next chapter awaits on My Virtual Library Empire

Does that mean a red object isn't red at all but reflects all the red light, while absorbing light of other colors?

Theoretically, if one could find a way to "see" the "light elements" inside an object, wouldn't it display a mix of other colors?

Rafael struggled to grasp Lynn's words; it was challenging to imagine a world where colors were reversed.

"Indeed, without light, there would be no color," Lynn nodded, affirming Rafael's words.

"This is simply absurd!" A grand wizard dressed in purple stood up abruptly, slamming the table and vociferously objecting. "So everything we see is inverted? A black object that absorbs all light is actually very bright, but we just can't see it?"

"No, that's not correct. If all the light is absorbed and not reflected, then naturally it can't shine," Lynn shrugged and then continued to speak.

"Moreover, you can all think about this. If you are in a sealed space at night, can you see color then? Hence, color indeed exists by relying on light."

At these words, Rafael and others paused for a moment, while Sanchez furrowed his brow, feeling that Lynn's argument was unreliable.

"Master Lynn, magic requires rigorous proof, not wild guesses! In the absence of light, we can't see anything at all; does that mean they don't exist?" Glenn summoned his courage to argue from his high platform, being the most reluctant to believe this line of reasoning.

After all, it concerned whether or not he could receive the Morning Star Medal. If it was proven that primary colors were not an intrinsic property of light but a phenomenon caused by physiological reasons, the importance of his research findings would drastically decline.

However, as Glenn's courage gradually waned when debating with a grand wizard, especially the most sought-after star of magic in the Wizard Land, cold sweat began to bead on his forehead.

His close friend beside him also quietly tugged at his sleeve, signaling for Glenn not to rashly confront the magical star. After all, the latter wouldn't even need to do much; a slight indication of disapproval, and their days to come would become difficult.

Lynn paid no mind to Glenn's somewhat sharp questioning, and with a smile, he said, "A very good rebuttal. You are not wrong; every magical theory needs to be verified with experiments!"

"Now, please seal up all the windows and doors of this auditorium... Let not a single ray of light come through!"

As Lynn's words fell, the wizards near the windows simultaneously cast spells, sealing up all the doors and windows. The once brightly lit conference site of the academic seminar immediately plunged into profound darkness, leaving only the light cascading down from the top of the tower above their heads, providing a faint luminescence.

"Who has a mirror on them?" Lynn once again spoke up to ask.

"I have one!" Glenn stepped forward, pulling out a round mirror from his chest; he had been conducting experiments related to light lately, so a mirror was, of course, a constant companion.

"Excellent!" Lynn nodded, then called over Johnny to stand directly in front of the high platform and used the round mirror to reflect the light falling from above onto the girl.

In the midst of darkness, Johnny's figure was strikingly conspicuous, dressed in a radiant red gown, the hem swaying gently, like flames.

"Do you know what color clothing she is wearing?" Lynn asked.

"It's red, of course!" Glenn answered.

"Isn't that obvious to anyone?" Rafael scoffed, not understanding why Lynn was asking such a foolish question.

"Please remember your judgment now! The clothes are red; be sure not to forget!" Lynn said with a meaningful look.

Rafael was speechless; could the dress turn blue afterwards?

He was curious to see what exactly Lynn was up to!

Lynn then turned his gaze to the girl in the red dress, smiling as he spoke. "Your skin is very fair, and very beautiful..."

Johnny had not expected the dean to compliment her looks in public, and amidst the ambiguous gazes of the surrounding wizards, she appeared somewhat embarrassed and uneasy.

This is perfect for the experiment... Lynn quietly swallowed the latter half of his thought.

"Next, we will need your... light dissociation device!" Lynn walked up and patted Glenn's shoulder, calling him over to say.

"What should I do, Master Lynn?" Glenn asked nervously, holding his invention.

"First, split the light as you did just now..." Lynn explained the steps to Glenn in detail, making sure he understood before announcing that the experiment could begin!
