After the completion of the light speed measurement experiment, this year's academic seminar finally came to an end, but the method of using gear distance measurement is still talked about.
Immediately afterwards came the award ceremony held in the Sky Territory. The three nominees, Fulla, Glenn and Yolande, all successfully received the Morning Star Medal.
Lin En also won a Silver Moon Medal again with this experiment of measuring the speed of light!
It's just that for this award ceremony, the wizards were very divided.
Most wizards think that the beam measurement method proposed by Linn can only be described as a wizard!
Although this experiment alone is far from meeting the requirements for obtaining the Silver Moon Medal, it is not a big deal to be a little more tolerant to geniuses.
Not to mention that the other party has already won the Corona Medal, so he won't make anyone jealous.
However, there are also some wizards who have criticized the Magic Star for receiving the Silver Moon Medal. Although Linn's experiment was very exciting and even amazing, the final result was only a measurement of the speed of light.
This kind of medal is usually only awarded to those who have made outstanding contributions to the Wizarding Land, developed legendary magic, or made important additions to the existing magic system.
From their point of view, measuring the speed of light obviously does not correspond to any of them. It can be said that the Parliament made a very bad start this time...
As the center of the torrent, Linn did not focus on gaining praise or rebutting slander. He continued to study the basic elements. Occasionally, he was pulled out by Raphael and others to get acquainted with the great wizards stranded in the Wizard City. For a moment.
Lin En did not refuse the communication between the great wizards. These people were all outstanding wizards. Among them were great wizards who had won many Morning Star Medals and even the Silver Moon Medal. In a sense, they were from another world. Newton and Einstein were also the backbone of the development of magic.
On the third day after the academic seminar, all the MPs stranded in Greenrial City received invitations from the Parliament. Linn was no exception. He knew that the purpose of this meeting was mostly to discuss the next steps. The Holy See invaded...
However, just before Linn went out, the halfling Darren, who should be far away in Iyeta at the moment, ran over in a panic with others.
"Master Dean, it's not good, it's not good!"
"What's wrong? Darren?" Linn frowned, already having a guess in his mind.
"It's intelligence from the Kingdom of [Hadrata]... Just yesterday morning, those imperial troops suddenly crossed the border!" Darren gasped and handed over a sealed letter.
This was much faster than he expected... Lin En opened the envelope directly as he pondered. After reading it, his expression suddenly became very solemn.
…
One day ago, at the border of the Kingdom of Hadratah, two huge airships were suspended in the sky at a height of 1,000 meters on routine patrol.
As a glorious airship pilot, Hami has dreamed of flying freely in the sky like a bird since he was a child.
However, as he has no magic talent, he knows very well that it is an unrealistic fantasy. A hoe and a piece of farmland are his foreseeable future. If he is lucky, he might be able to buy a camel beast, so that he can farm while farming. Save some effort.
But since the new dean arrived at Iyeta two years ago, everything has changed!
Hami put down his hoe and joined the newly opened glass workshop, because he could earn half a year's salary there in one month. Then he heard that the dean planned to recruit some civilians and train them to become airship pilots.
Hami couldn't believe his ears when he received the news. In his opinion, these airships, which were larger than a house but could rise into the sky, were the greatest magical creations of wizards.
It is already a great gift to allow them to spend money to experience it.
Can civilians like them who don't know magic also control such magical magical creations?
However, he was confused, so Hami immediately quit his job in the workshop and joined the driver's training.
In addition to figuring out how to control this behemoth and understanding a magical alchemical instrument that always points in the north and south directions, you also need to learn arithmetic and arcana knowledge.
For example, how to estimate the distance between the airship and the target through appropriate reference objects and some 'simple' formulas, and this is only the most basic investigation subject.
Poor Hammy has been hoeing for most of his life, so he is naturally confused when it comes to learning. According to some rumors, even some wizards find this thing called Mathematical Olympiad difficult...
These efforts obviously brought him extremely generous rewards. The monthly reward he received increased from ten silver coins to twenty. He didn't need to work in the factory day and night, which made him always happy. Dreams come true in another way!
So when he heard that Dean Lin En was going to select some airship pilots to carry out dangerous missions, Hami chose to participate without hesitation.
Part of it is to repay the dean's kindness, and the other part is because during the mission, the remuneration is doubled. If they are accidentally sacrificed, their family will receive a pension of ten magic gold coins, and they will also receive the most in the future. With good care, you can even go to civilian schools for free.
Hami and the other pilots undoubtedly carried out the mission with a certain death mentality. However, after wandering around the border of the kingdom for more than a month, their tense minds gradually relaxed, and they even felt that the wizard was right. Not too exaggerated.
They are currently at an altitude of thousands of meters. They only need to see the empire's cross-border troops from a distance, use telescopes to spy on the information, and then return to Iyetta to report. What danger could there be...
However, in the past month, patrolling back and forth in the same area made Hami feel bored. Although he liked the feeling of flying in the sky, he was always in the same place and became a little bored after flying for a long time.
Hami imagined in his mind that it would be great if he could fly to the other side of the world and take a look...
"Wait, Hammy, what do you see over there?" The deputy next to him suddenly shouted loudly as if he had discovered something.
Hami immediately turned his head and looked over. In the high sky in the distance, there seemed to be a golden cloud floating towards them.
Why does it look so strange...
Hami used the telescope set up on the airship to observe, and then his pupils tightened. These were not clouds, but a large group of monsters with eagle-like heads and fire lion-like back bodies. The bright golden eagle feathers were reflected in the sunlight. Under the illumination, a gilded golden halo appears, which looks like a moving cloud from a distance...
Those are the Griffins, the Imperial Order of Griffins!
