"Are you guys teasing me just because I didn't study much? How does a mirage pose any threat to the city?" Mo Fan's eyes widened, looking at the group with grim looks on their faces.
Wasn't a mirage just a normal phenomenon in a desert? According to science, it was an optical phenomenon in which light rays bent due to refraction, producing a displaced image of distant objects. The easiest way to explain it was through the scenario when someone was trying to catch a fish in a clear stream. If the person tried to grab at the fish, they would realize that their hands were always some distance away from reaching the fish. It was due to the refraction of light occurring at the surface of the water.
The same principles applied to a mirage. Mo Fan admitted that he was not that knowledgeable in the World of Magic, but he still a science-side student!
