"Then, if I can create a safe and harmless energy source that is independent from magic, and can be safely manipulated by a mortal, is it worth promoting to become a mage?"

"You must mean electricity magic," the Dean pondered. "If you are able to do so, then it will be useful. However, think about it -- is it worth it? If you ask me, I'm not very optimistic."

To a mage, whatever mortals do represents inefficiency, so most qualified mages will not pay attention to whatever mortals give them. What mages really need are ether crystals, as well as obtaining resources from other worlds.

However, Adam doesn't think that way. Magic and technology should have the same goal, so the development of technology should not be lagging behind magic.

The humans back on Earth are weak with a limited life span, as well as possessing the inability to directly transform their knowledge into technology, which means that technology would develop at a slow rate. However, human imagination knows no bounds, and there are many unfinished prototypes for terrifying, world-ending weapons, all of which are impossible to produce.

For example, Adam could recall prototypes for an electromagnetic gun, positive electron guns, plasma guns.

In the Mage World, Adam predicts that mages can already achieve this. For example, with gravity magic, he predicts that mages are able to summon artificial black holes.

However, Adam had nothing to argue with the Dean. If he had no evidence to prove his theories, then it is all superficial.

The Dean smiled and encouraged Adam, "Of course, if you are able to do it, I'll support you wholeheartedly. The Tower won't be stingy with their rewards either."

After bidding the Dean farewell, Adam announced to his assistants, "You are all granted a few days of rest. After five days, we will begin a new experiment."

The high-intensity experiments conducted over the last few months has effectively tired everyone out, but nobody had the heart to leave. Frank scooted over to Adam and asked aloud, "What happened just now?"

Everyone was concerned with what happened moments ago. They really wanted to know what Adam is about to research.

Adam thought for a while -- the core theory could not be published at the moment, but letting them see the effect would boost their confidence greatly, so he walked out of the lab for the first time in several months.

As soon as he walked out, he found that Elliott was approaching. Ever since the apprentice bar incident, Adam has not seen his friend. On the flip side, Elliott knew Adam was conducting important experiments, and didn't want to bother him.

"Adam, my friend!" Elliott exclaimed, running towards Adam with open arms.

Adam formed a new psychic barrier, surrounding his psychic barrier with electricity, and a magnetic field revolved around Adam.

Elliott abruptly stopped in front of Adam.

"Man," Elliot sighed. "We haven't seen each other in so long, can't we be a little more intimate?" he pouted. He then curiously poked at Adam's barrier and looked at him.

"This is my new mage 'armor'," Adam simply said.

"Have you given up on electricity magic? You aren't a lost cause after all," Elliott smiled with relief, thinking that Adam had given up on the dead-end that is electricity magic.

"No," Adam shook his head. "This is the result of my research -- the magnetic field."

The devil peeked from behind Adam and turned into a human form, hugging Elliott, "Elliott, you must know that my master was almost promoted to a qualified mage just moments ago, and he suppressed it!"

Elliot sneered and playfully slapped the devil, "Garfield, you're still as talkative as ever -- besides, that's ridiculous! There is no way Adam would promote this easily, right James?"

Elliott's face fell upon seeing James shake his head, and James explained, "No, Elliott. It's true. Adam suppressed the promotion all on his own. The Dean himself confirmed it."

James' emotions were all over the place. He wasted his life just to become a qualified mage, but Adam, who was only a quarter of his age, voluntarily gave up the opportunity to become a mage.

"My friend, you..."

Elliot stared at Adam in shock, words being unable to form in his mouth. He had just manufactured a new toxin, feeling affirmed in his path. He was full of joy and wanted to share the joy with his friends, but now, he learnt that Adam has the ability to become a qualified mage!

"My theories aren't even perfect, so I didn't expect a promotion so soon," Adam admitted.

Elliott sighed in frustration, not wanting to speak. Adam being a genius should be no surprise to him.

Once Adam led everyone outside, he showed off his new magic in front of everyone.

He stretched his arms outwards, and electricity crackled out of his body, and a magnetic field spread within a radius of 100 metres with him as the centre.

Due to his incomplete theory, Adam is still unable to freely retract and expand the magnetic field. He wasn't able to fully control the magnetic field either, but it was enough to shock everyone.

Within the field, everyone within the magnetic field couldn't control their bodies, and all of their perceptive abilities were thrown into chaos.

"Help, what's going on?!" some apprentices shouted in panic. Only Elliott and some other people were able to resist this with their magic.

Adam dissipated the field and everyone looked at Adam with frightened eyes.

Adam ignored them, conjuring the magnetic field again and stomped on the ground. Countless metal particles rose from the ground and immediately formed various metal weapons. With a single swipe of his hand, the metal weapons were displayed in front of the apprentices.

Everyone looked at the weapons suspended before them in fear, raising their psychic barriers. They had no doubt that these weapons could kill them.
