Chapter 337: Impossible, My Three Laws of Fire Cannot Be Wrong!
Many shared Sanchez's thoughts at that moment. They'd been watching the entire spectacle unfold, witnessing the unbelievable and outright paradoxical. It wasn't surprising they began to doubt, wondering if this might be some powerful visual illusion.
After all, fire couldn't possibly burn lightning, much less turn a water curtain into fuel...
"This is undoubtedly a form of flame," Lynn stated without hesitation.
"So, does that mean hell really exists?" Raphael asked incredulously.
He immediately recalled the rumors within the wizarding world. This magical luminary controlled flames from the deepest pits of hell, capable of consuming and incinerating everything.
Raphael had previously scoffed at this notion, but now, he found himself teetering on the edge of belief because, other than hellfire, he couldn't think of any other description.
"Hell is just a fabrication of the Holy Church. I never thought you'd buy into that," Lynn chuckled, pausing briefly before continuing.
"Of course, it's not what you think. I call it the Eternal Blaze, a flame crafted by magic!"
"But this isn't magic at all! It completely violates my 'Three Laws of Fire,' this type of flame cannot exist!" one grand wizard couldn't resist loudly objecting.
Lynn looked strangely at him while Raphael hurriedly introduced the dissenter.
"This is Master Adela, with profound expertise in elemental studies!"
"Ah, the master who proposed the theory of fire elements?" Lynn suddenly realized. He had briefly encountered Adela at a previous gathering of grand wizards but hadn't engaged in deep conversation.
"That's me!" Adela nodded proudly. He had studied fire elements for decades, summarizing various characteristics and laws concerning fire.
Among them was the Three Laws of Fire - temperature (the speed of elemental movement), combustibles, and sufficient oxygen... All fires couldn't exist outside these elements...
Fire elements existed within every combustible, but they were smaller than regular elements, beyond the perception of wizards unless prompted by high temperatures and oxygen.
Adela enthusiastically explained his theory of fire elements to Lynn, a conclusion drawn from rigorous research and numerous experiments!
It was through this study that he triumphed in the debate two decades ago on what flames truly were, defeating the 'Combustion Theory' and 'Flame Magic Theory,' earning himself a Silver Moon Medal!
"This is impossible! Stones cannot serve as fuel. This shouldn't be right, and without oxygen, why can it still burn..." Adela muttered, completely puzzled, almost teetering on the brink of madness.
Raphael and others looked at Adela with deep sympathy. They understood he had devoted most of his life to fire element studies, and suddenly finding his theories wrong was a devastating blow...
However, it was at this moment Lynn spoke up. "Actually, your Three Laws of Fire are quite accurate."
Adela paused, a mixture of shock and confusion, wondering if he had misheard.
Before he could inquire, Lynn continued explaining. "But I need to correct a few points, like oxygen indeed being a condition for complete combustion, but not a necessary one!"
"More accurately, all that's needed is an oxidizer!"
Upon hearing this, the audience furrowed their brows.
Complete condition versus necessary condition - these novel terms seemed somewhat alien to them, but they could barely grasp their meaning. However, this oxidizer was puzzling.
An oxidizer gains electrons in oxidation-reduction reactions, like trichlorofluoromethane, a strong oxidizer and fluorinating agent, directly substituting the role of oxygen. That's why in a vacuum, it can ignite substances (fuel)!
But there were few elements capable of serving as oxidizers, and most were compounds...
Considering Raphael and others had limited knowledge, Lynn refrained from an extensive explanation. Otherwise, he'd have to start by explaining what oxidation-reduction reactions were before delving into atomic structures...
After a moment's contemplation, Lynn briefly summarized, "In simple terms, certain elements can replace oxygen as the ignition condition. Therefore, even in an oxygen-free environment, combustion can continue..."
