I Created Scientific Magic-Chapter 147 - 134
The flying ship was somewhat faster than anticipated, and on the evening of the third day, a majestic city appeared before Lynn.
It was Wizard City—Greenriel!
This city, nestled among mountains and perfectly circular, resembled an enormous gem embedded within the peaks. Its towering walls were equipped with many high-level Magic Crystal Cannons, which, inexplicably and without human control, swiveled their barrels toward the direction of the flying ship.
Lynn had witnessed the might of these devices before; they could even heavily damage the formidable Eye of Death.
However, he was not there to invade. He had reported his arrival in advance through an alchemist’s array, and with two great wizards on board, Lynn wasn’t worried about being attacked. Instead, he gazed directly at a towering, sharp-topped tower at the city’s center. Bathed in the dying light of the sunset, it sparkled with magical brilliance and was distinctly conspicuous.
"Is this Corona Tower?" Lynn murmured to himself.
Rafael nodded in response, "Yes, this is Corona Tower, the symbol of Wizard City!"
"Master Rafael, may I ask why this tower is named so?" Lynn inquired. Having experienced the events at Yiyeta Harbor, the sight of tall spires left him somewhat wary.
"Actually, its original name was supposed to be Eclipse Tower, or Shadowless Tower, but those names were changed to Corona due to their unfavorable connotations," Rafael explained.
Every year, in mid-July at noon, the shadow of this magical tower completely overlaps with its base, forming a ’Shadowless Tower.’
Of course, on that day, all the buildings in Greenriel do the same, yet the Corona Tower is exceedingly tall and thus most awe-inspiring.
The calendar and timekeeping of Wizard Land are precisely divided based on the length and angle changes of Corona Tower’s shadow under the sunlight, forming a perfect 360 days, split into twelve months, each with exactly thirty days.
"A fine design," Lynn remarked, raising an eyebrow.
In this way, the whole tower serves as a gigantic clock.
As for the phenomenon of the Shadowless Tower, he could guess—it simply occurred on mid-July days when the tower stood directly under the sun’s rays.
As the two conversed, the flying ship passed through Greenriel and landed on the plaza in front of the eastern magic research association, drawing a large crowd of wizards.
After all, everyone else had arrived by horse-drawn carriage, making their arrival distinctly unique.
"Is this the skyship? It’s even larger than what I saw in the newspapers..."
"Very impressive, it would be a good choice for travel if it weren’t too expensive..."
The chattering continued non-stop, and given the extensive coverage by "Magic Daily", Lynn and his skyship were already well-known, although sketches naturally could not compare to the impact of seeing the real thing. The alchemists even discussed the design principles of such alchemical apparatus.
It could fly and hover without wings, could it be using some kind of force field magic?
Thus, as soon as Lynn and his companions disembarked from the ship, they felt countless eyes turn their way, clearly becoming the focus of everyone present.
Compared to the very composed Lynn, Johnny and Ailoke, who were first-time participants at the grand event in Green Ruiel, seemed somewhat uneasy.
Philip adjusted his robe — even when Master Helram used to lead the team, opportunities for the Yiyeta School to make an appearance like this were rare.
At that moment, a tall and burly male Wizard, who had his hair neatly groomed, stepped out from the crowd, smiled, and bowed to August and Rafael before turning his attention to Lynn and the others.
"Mr. Philip, Mr. Lynn, welcome to Green Ruiel. Please come with me!"
"Well, masters, we will meet again tomorrow!" Lynn said goodbye to August and Rafael and then followed the tall Wizard to the Yiyeta School’s designated rest area.
After settling the accommodation issues, Philip hurriedly pulled Lynn aside. "Have you figured out how to deal with those Wizards from the Prophecy School tomorrow?"

"Of course..." Lynn elongated his tone, "not!"
Philip was completely flustered. Seeing Lynn’s composure earlier, he had thought Lynn had everything under control, but it turned out he was completely unprepared.
However, before Philip could get more agitated, Lynn spoke again. "If you can get me the detailed star chart from the Prophecy School, then I’ll be fully confident!"
"That’s easy, just wait, I’ll be right back..." Philip rushed out the door. The Wizards from the Prophecy School had published these research findings in past editions of the Magic Daily, and there were corresponding records in the library, which should not be hard to find.
Lynn took out a piece of parchment from the table and wrote down the famous Kepler’s Third Law and the Law of Universal Gravitation...
Understanding the laws of stellar orbits needed decades or even centuries of uninterrupted observations, and he certainly didn’t have enough time now. Fortunately, the Wizards from the Prophecy School had already done the most complex work for him; he just needed to verify whether the theories were correct.
...
Night fell over Wizard City Green Ruiel.
Lynn came alone to Harrov’s manor, ready to meet this renowned legendary Wizard.
However, when he reached the entrance, he was surprised to find it crowded with people. Over ten Wizards were anxiously waiting at the door, each holding an envelope or manuscript.
Before Lynn could ask any questions, the manor’s gates opened, and a female Wizard, roughly thirty years old and wearing a badge indicating she was a third-ring Wizard, came out.
Almost immediately, the crowd gathered at the gate surged forward.
"Trisha, this data took me ten whole years to compile, and I hope it could assist in Harrov’s research," a tall, thin Wizard pleaded as he handed over a stack of manuscript papers.
The other Wizards were not to be outdone, each pushing forward to present their research findings in hopes of catching Trisha’s attention. They hoped to place their manuscripts on top of the pile, and some even included a few Magic Gold Coins or even a whole bag of money in their papers.
Only then did Lynn realize that those who knew Harrov was researching gravity and planned to approach him from this angle were not just himself.
