"So the legendary wizard named Isaac was hit in the head by an apple and discovered the existence of gravity?" Harrov asked curiously.

"Yes, it is said that Lord Isaac was only an official wizard at that time. After an academic discussion on the movement of the stars, he suspected that there must be an invisible force pulling the planets in the galaxy to revolve around the sun until they stopped moving.

When he went under the apple tree and was hit by a falling apple, he suddenly woke up..." Lin En explained with a headache.

I don’t know what went wrong. On the way back from the airship, Harrov suddenly became very interested in the fictional legendary wizards of the [Arcane Society]. As a last resort, Linn had to tamper with the portraits of some famous people.

The story is so easy to fool.

But Harrov obviously didn't know this, and was immersed in the celebrity stories told by Lynn.

What surprised him the most was that when the legendary wizards of the [Arcane Society] developed many magical theories, they were still just apprentices, formal wizards, or even ordinary people who didn't know magic. However, based on those sparse and ordinary phenomena,

Rely on the mysterious mathematics, amazing intuition and extraordinary imagination to discover the truth contained in it.

For example, Isaac discovered the phenomenon of gravity because of a falling apple, or Kepler judged that the planet under his feet was a sphere based on the phenomenon of lunar eclipses.

Maybe this is genius!

Harrov couldn't help but think that it was only after he became a great wizard that he discovered the existence of gravity because of his increased magic power and computing power. When he released magic, he caused a disturbance in a certain space.

Compared with the experiences of those legendary wizards, Harrov couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.

But at the same time, Harrov also noticed a very important point, that is Mathematical Olympiad!

Whether it is the three laws of the stars that Lin En mentioned, or the law of universal gravitation, or even the calculation of planet data, they can all be displayed intuitively in the form of arcane mathematics.

Many complicated explanations have been simplified and can be calculated as long as there are formulas.

Haroff calls it Olympiad thinking!

This is undoubtedly something that the land of wizards lacks, and it may also be the reason why the [Arcane Society] can make rapid progress in the academic research of magic.

Thinking of this, Harrov asked Lin En to summarize some basic Mathematical Olympiad knowledge into a book. He was going to apply to the parliament to make Mathematical Olympiad a mainstream subject for various schools of thought to study.

Lin En naturally agreed happily. He had long wanted to unify all the messy operation symbols in the wizard's land, so that every time he looked through the magic book, he would have to spend a lot of time to figure out what each symbol represented.

What are you wearing?

The most disgusting thing is that sometimes each school has different operation symbols for the same formula. For example, there are several π representing pi, which makes his head big.

"Now that we have calculated all the data of the planet under our feet, can you tell me what the gravitational constant is?" Harrov asked curiously.

Lin En's previous pendulum experiments and planetary data calculations were undoubtedly preparations for this most important thing!

"Master Harrov, I'm afraid you need to wait a few more days. If you want to calculate the gravitational constant, there is still a very important thing missing. By then we will all be able to intuitively 'see' the consequences of the distortion of gravity and space.

Influence." Lin En explained freely.

"Oh?" Harrov immediately became interested.

Gravity is an invisible and intangible force. He can only compare it to water waves to understand the changes in space. However, Lin En said that there is a way for them to 'see' the effect of gravity. How can this not let them

He was curious.

"Is there anything we can do to help?" Harrov asked quickly.

"I'm looking for some raw materials for experiments." Lin En roughly described the appearance and properties of quartz stone and feldspar.

The method he used to calculate the gravitational constant was naturally the famous Cavendish torsion balance!

If you want to replicate this experiment, you need to use light and several mirrors to reflect the light!

After all, the influence of gravity is very weak. Only by using light projection to amplify the subtle disturbances can the changes be perfectly presented.

Quartz stone and feldspar are the two raw materials for making glass.

Of course, it is not impossible to melt the sand directly at high temperature, but in addition to silica, the sand will inevitably be doped with many impurities, which will affect the quality of the finished product.

In addition, fluxes such as limestone and soda ash are also needed. These two things are easy to obtain. Limestone is everywhere near the port of Ietta, and soda ash can be synthesized by yourself.

…

The council's actions were faster than Linn imagined. The day after he returned to Greenriel City, Harrov sent people to transport quartz sand and feldspar weighing several tons with dozens of camel beasts.

They were transported over and piled high in front of the temporary residence, attracting crowds of people to watch.

"Your Excellency Lin En, if the quantity is not enough, I will ask someone to get another batch tomorrow." Korol said in a very respectful tone.

As both Harov's disciples, Korol did not dare to underestimate this young wizard who had become famous in the Wizarding Land, and he was not dissatisfied because he gained Harov's appreciation. After all, Theresa's fate

It's just a warning.

"Enough, this is definitely enough!" Lin En looked at the quartz sand and feldspar piled up into two small hills, and the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily. With so many raw materials, he could open a glass factory without any problem!

After rejecting the other party's offer of help, Linn asked Lydia, Darren and other halflings to get some ingredients and returned to the house.

The glass making process is not complicated, it only requires high temperature to dissolve it. The melting point of quartz sand is 1750 degrees, but adding soda ash and limestone lowers the melting point a lot. Using magic to create this level of high temperature is very important to Lin En.

The words are still no problem.

Under the curious gazes of Lydia and others, the decomposed granular quartz sand gradually melted under the action of fire magic, turning into a red liquid shape that continued to flow in the palm of the hand, and then put it into the circle that had been prepared earlier.

inside the mold.

After the glass was completely formed, Linn attached tin foil to one side and finally poured in mercury.

Mercury is a liquid metal that can dissolve tin and make it stick tightly to the glass plate. When it is completely solidified, a smooth and flawless glass mirror that can clearly reflect the human figure will appear in front of everyone.
