Chapter 227: The Airship Visible Only to the Clever Ones!

"Where's this airship you're talking about? Where is it?" Ebur looked up, seeing nothing but the blue sky and white clouds. He teased, inquiring mockingly.

"Lord Lynn said that only clever people can see it when it flies!" Owen scratched his head, speaking softly.

Ebur choked, glaring at Owen with irritation, suspecting if he was playing a prank, inventing something non-existent just to fool him.

Just then, a muffled sound echoed from the front, causing a slight tremor on the ground.

Ebur turned hastily, noticing something unusual in the vast grassland ahead, as if something heavy had pressed it down.

As the illusionary magic dispersed, a colossal entity, almost five or six stories high, materialized before his eyes.

It was a shade of bluish-green, adorned with intricate alchemical patterns across its surface. Below, the cockpit resembled a grand ship, tethered to a massive elliptical balloon by sturdy chains, exuding an imposing presence.

Ebur involuntarily gasped. Was this the aerial skyship?!

Could it be that the rumored land of wizards truly existed?

This enormous and impressive airship before him undeniably shattered Ebur's perceptions, making him realize that Owen's words might not have been a lie or deception.

As the hatch of the cockpit lowered, several robed wizards disembarked, one of them using Mage Hand to lift several heavy crates.

While Ebur was taken aback, the attendants were already accustomed to such sights, swiftly assisting in transporting the glassware from the crates into the building.

Loude noticed that there were more hands this time than before, not just seven formal wizards but over ten halflings, even Lydia, Darren, and others had joined in.

However, this was expected. It was rumored that Lord Lynn was preparing a very powerful alchemical apparatus, requiring a significant number of hands.

Amid his contemplation, Loude didn't dare to remain idle. He joined the others on the airship and carefully helped in carrying down a metal 'box' that stood over a meter tall.

"What's this?" Ebur, seeing everyone's cautiousness, couldn't help but ask in curiosity.

"It's called an alchemical internal combustion engine, a creation blending technology and magic, serving as a power source... Of course, it can also be used for auxiliary power generation!" Lynn's figure appeared out of thin air beside them, startling Ebur.

But soon, Ebur's attention was drawn to Lynn's words.

Auxiliary power generation? Could it be some sort of alchemical apparatus capable of wielding thunderous magic?

"Lynn, weren't you at the academy this morning?" Lydia looked astonished at Lynn's sudden appearance, almost doubting her own eyes.

Just eleven hours ago, Lynn bid her farewell within Iyeta Academy.

Could it be that the dean could move faster than the airship...

"You can think of it as me using a kind of magical art." Lynn chuckled, explaining, and then led everyone into the hastily constructed magical laboratory. Ebur hastened to follow suit.

Inside the magical laboratory, a group of wizards huddled around a huge magnet, debating among themselves...

"Any discoveries?" Lynn asked casually. Magnetite was one of Hadralata Kingdom's specialties.

This type of mineral that could attract iron objects without any magical assistance was considered a stone of divine power by the church, hence strictly controlled. It took a fair amount of effort for Loude to procure such a large chunk of magnetite.

"Dean, this kind of stone is incredibly magical. It attracts metallic objects without needing magic. Furthermore, two magnetic stones can either attract or repel each other..." Orlando, intrigued by this magical mineral, explained eagerly.

"This thing can generate a magnetic field, which is why it attracts those metal objects..." Lynn chuckled while explaining. He had read some magical books about electromagnetic effects in the land of wizards, but there were very few wizards studying this stuff.

After all, there was no magnetite in the land of wizards, so the only samples available were the lightning in the sky and the biological electrical currents...

"Magnetic field?" Orlando paused.

The last thing referred to as a 'field' was the gravitational field, according to Lynn's proposed theory of universal gravitationa force that caused attraction between any objects.

But this magnetic stone only attracted specific things...

"Dean, is this also a manifestation of gravitational phenomena?" a male wizard from the Iyeta school hurriedly asked.

"No, magnetism is magnetism, gravity is gravity..." Lynn shook his head, seeing the immense curiosity among them. He began explaining.

"As we know, everything is made up of elements, and within these elements, electrons are constantly spinning and rotating around the atomic nucleus. Both of these movements create magnetism.

The special thing about a magnet is that it has its own magnetic moment. The elements inside it are arranged in a specific pattern, forming a powerful magnetic field..."

As Lynn elucidated the principles, they were all perplexed, only able to understand simply that the arrangement of elements inside the magnet could spontaneously generate some kind of magica naturally formed alchemical creation, possessing miraculous power.

"Why is it only iron that gets attracted?" Orlando asked, puzzled.

Lynn smiled but didn't answer directly. He picked up an iron sword and placed it on the cut magnet. Immediately, they clung tightly together.

After about five seconds, Lynn forcefully pulled the iron sword away and placed it near an iron block.

The iron block trembled slightly and then spontaneously jumped up, adhering to the sword.

This miraculous scene astonished everyone present.

Lydia, wearing an expression of curiosity, remembered a few months ago when Lynn had explained frictional electricity, the principle of attracting small pieces of paper. But these seemed different.

Dean, just now, didn't even rub the iron sword?

"Dean Lynn, what's happening here? Is it some kind of magical energy conduction?" Orlando was utterly confused, only able to rely on his knowledge of magic to explain this peculiar phenomenon.

For instance, the magic stored in the magnetite was transferred to this iron sword.

Because magical energy can flow within specific substances, this was also the principle behind some enchantment magic.
