"Nonsense, it should be 6,875 kilometers!"

…

Because the calculated value was so large, similar discussions soon spread across Greenrill. After repeated arguments and debates, the data on the planet's circumference, diameter, and radius soon appeared on paper.

The surface area of ​​the planet was a terrifying number that was beyond everyone's expectations: 594 million square kilometers! Many people did not realize until this moment that the planet under their feet was so vast!

Ali's mind even had a thought that the world is so big and he wants to go see it.

According to the circumference data just calculated, driving the best alchemy ship in the wizard land, under the most ideal circumstances, it only takes three months to circle the circle! However, when he brought up this idea, he caused laughter from everyone.

The vastness and danger of the ocean were beyond the imagination of someone like Alex who had no sailing experience.

Even the most experienced sailors could die on their way to sea for fishing if they encountered strong winds and waves, not to mention those ferocious sea beasts.

"What if we use an airship?" Alex was not defeated by everyone's ridicule. Instead, he came up with a new idea. Since crossing the sea is very dangerous, maybe they could start from the air.

After hearing Alex's words, the people with mocking and joking expressions on their faces suddenly fell silent, because they suddenly felt that although Alex's proposal was crazy, it was undeniably feasible.

Flying around the entire planet is definitely an extremely magnificent feat, worthy of being recorded in the history of magic!

"Maybe we can fly in the opposite direction. Doesn't the Magic Daily say that the continent beneath our feet is constantly rotating from west to east? Then as long as we start from the east and fly west, wouldn't we be able to come back in a day?" The tall and thin wizard said proudly, but he didn't notice that the people around him were looking at him as if he were a fool.

If it was that easy, they would have already run from the east side of Greenriel to the west side of Greenriel the moment they jumped up! After pondering for a while, an alchemist shook his head and said coldly, "I think it's impossible to accomplish such a magnificent feat even with an airship. If you can't determine the direction to go, it won't be long before you get lost in the sea, and you might even be attacked by a dragon, feathered serpent, or bird demon."

However, this time, many people came out to support Alex's grand idea. For example, they suggested that a few magic crystal cannons could be installed on the airship to resist the invasion of flying monsters, or that the direction and position could be determined by the guidance of the stars...

While everyone was discussing the matter, Alex himself was deflated because he suddenly thought that how could a commoner like himself get an alchemical airship of his own.

In the city square not far away, Raphael looked at the wizards who were arguing fiercely over the correctness of the data, and even fighting because of conflicting theories, and said with great emotion.

"Greenriel, it's been a long time since it's been this lively!"

Ever since Lin En came to this ancient wizard city, it seemed as if he had injected new vitality into the city, refreshing their understanding of the world every day and even allowing some civilians to participate in academic discussions.

This was the first time he had seen wizards and commoners discussing a certain magical theory together! …

The noise in Greenriel City lasted for a long time, until two days later, when the returning airship appeared above the city, and the atmosphere reached its peak.

Tens of thousands of people gathered in the streets and squares, waiting for the airship to land with great excitement.

Lydia, the first one to get off the airship, waved happily when she saw the dense crowds of people coming to greet them in the city square.

Darren and other halflings also shouted excitedly.

"Lydia, I knew you could do it!" "Lydia, you are the pride of the Halflings! Our hero!"

Soon, the voices came from all corners of the square. Although halflings were a minority in the entire wizarding land, there were still several thousand of them together. They squeezed to the front with their physical advantages and shouted Lydia's name in unison.

"A halfling who can't do magic? How did she get on the airship?" Several wizards from Greenriel, who had rushed over from the small town on the west side of the wizarding land, frowned when they saw Lydia getting off the airship.

Why do we have to bring along an ignorant halfling who can't learn magic at such a sacred moment as measuring the circumference of the planet?

Upon hearing this, Darren and the others immediately became unhappy and said indignantly, "What do you know? Lydia is now Master Lin's apprentice. All the core components of this airship were made by Lydia herself. No one knows how to fly an airship better than her!"

Several wizards were a little bit unbelievable. In the history of Wizarding Land, no school had ever accepted halflings as apprentices. After all, it was an indisputable fact that halflings had no magical talent. Some wizards of plastic arts even contemptuously called halflings a group rejected by magic.

This also leads to the Halflings being unwelcome in some cities in the Wizarding Land.

And Lin En, who came from the Sea of ​​Mist, was willing to recruit a halfling as an apprentice and let him participate in the production process of such a sophisticated alchemical creation as the airship. This surprised several people, and they even wondered darkly whether the adult had any special hobbies.

"Can't wizards also join the Iyeta School and become Master Lynn's apprentice?" Alex said excitedly. Those civilians who also longed to become wizards also looked at Darren eagerly.

"Of course, Lydia is the best example!" Darren said proudly, and then thought about it and added, "But you have to be a very, very smart person!"

Very, very smart? Alex hesitated for a moment, thinking that he might not be able to meet this standard, but he still looked at Lin En who had just walked down from the airship with a glimmer of hope.

The first time he saw Lynn, Alex felt that she was young, too young!

Maybe not even twenty years old.

But it was this wizard who was a few years younger than himself who came up with the great idea of ​​measuring planetary data, put it into action, and achieved impressive results.

At this moment, Lynn was having a pleasant conversation with the legendary wizard Harof. Even though he was too far away to hear their conversation, Alex could guess that they must be discussing more profound magical philosophies.

However, all this was just his fantasy. In fact, Lynn was telling Harrof about the love-hate relationship between Newton and Apple...
