The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

Chapter 1226 - 364: Light Can Be Dissected!

Light can be dissected!

Before the students present could digest this colossal and astonishing piece of information, the miraculous spectacle unfolded right before everyone's eyes!

A pure white light passed through the prism, instantly splitting into a magnificent colorful band, precisely casting onto the wall at one side of the podium!

"By Saint Sis!"

"How, how was this done?!"

The lower-year preparatory students exclaimed with disbelief, assuming that the Prince had subtly cast some exquisite illusion technique.

However, some senior apprentices and mages gazed intently, with their keen eyes clearly seeing—the prism was merely ordinary glass, containing no trace of magic power, nor was it any mysterious magic item.

As for the magic Prince Colin used earlier, it was merely a standard Lighting Technique, without any additional spells.

Luo Yan smiled inwardly, fully aware of the reactions of the students below the stage and not at all surprised by their response.

He had noticed this issue back in Withered Wood Port.

Mechanical God, though bringing the age of enlightenment with steam engines and telescopes to this world, did not explain to the people why telescopes could see far or how to see further, nor why steam engines run or how they could run faster.

The people of this world have not undergone the lengthy process of natural scientific discoveries, and the presence of Extraordinary Power greatly distracted the smart minds. Hence, human civilization on this planet, despite possessing industrial-age technical heritage, and even surpassing industrial age "Magic Energy Technology," remains confined in the early Renaissance, still shackled by theology and monarchical power.

Now—

He planned to make up for this lesson for the buds of the Empire!

"Different colors of light have different 'refractive indices' in the same medium, which I... accidentally discovered back on Gana Continent."

Luo Yan casually introduced a new term, then glanced toward a distant, faintly visible Mage Tower outside the window.

"This also explains why, when we improved telescopes by adding more lenses, images of stars at extreme observation distances were always blurry, with edges possessing colorful halos... because different colors of light cannot perfectly converge at the same point."

After a brief pause, he continued.

"As long as we understand this, we can effortlessly design telescopes that see further and clearer."

Luo Yan did not tell these magic apprentices how to solve this problem, but he believed that as long as they understood the principles, solving it would be easy.

Otherwise, if he told them everything, wouldn't it lose some of the fun of exploration and discovery?

Before the students could fully comprehend the new term "refractive index," he gestured to the assistant, signaling them to bring up the intricately prepared props, and continued demonstrating a series of experiments including light refraction, pinhole imaging, using the assorted props to manipulate light and shadow.

The classroom echoed with continuous exclamations, whether it was the newly entered preparatory students or the assistants who had been here for years, all were wide-eyed.

Especially those specializing in the Illusionism School, who were thoroughly amazed by this method of manipulating light and shadow "without relying on any magic power."

Although they couldn't understand what significance these technologies held or how they could be applied in combat, it was undoubtedly a fierce impact on their worldview!

It turned out light and shadow could be controlled not only through magic power.

It turned out simple tools could achieve feats not inferior to Extraordinary Power!

After successfully capturing everyone's attention, Luo Yan gestured for the assistant nearby to clear the props off the podium.

His gaze slowly swept across the room, from the most focused faces in the front row to the blurred figures tiptoeing in the hallway, a smile appeared on his face.

Few chose to leave.

It seems the lecture was quite successful.

Of course, thanks to the Prince's identity, if it were someone else standing here, probably no one would have the patience to listen to non-magical subjects like this.

As he saw the apprentices digesting the large volume of information, Luo Yan slowed his speech, letting the casual tone turn solemn and powerful.

"...Although I am a Transcendent, I must say that what Extraordinary Power can achieve, mortal power can also attain."

"Moreover, mortals' hands can create things never imagined by Transcendents, as long as you dare to hypothesize, to prove... It is entirely possible."

Sitting in the lecture hall, Kurs disdainfully curled his lips, feeling that the Prince was comfortably speaking without worrying about the pain.

The elite of the Empire do not need to worry about soul level.

Not only do they naturally possess top-tier talent, even in the afterlife they have the chance to become the strongest, without having to pay much.

As for mortals...

Aren't they nothing but grass in the field, sheep in the pen?

Kurs did not doubt that their only value in life was serving elites like him, and they fell to such circumstances merely due to their own lack of effort.

Of course—

Not everyone thought like him, for example, Finn sitting beside him, whose eyes gleamed brightly.
