Late at night, the city of fire oil.
Following the divine revelation, Monroe and Ivina secretly arrived in the courtyard of a civilian mansion, preparing to cooperate with Her Majesty's actions to rescue Lord Judge Joshua and destroy this magical city from within!
The spies from the church like them have gathered here, a total of one hundred and fifteen people.
"Cynthia?"
Monroe recognized this holy lady at a glance.
He had met Cynthia several times in the Wizarding Academy, but he never thought that she would be the new church saint.
"Everyone, the empire has now reached its most critical moment!" Cynthia's voice was not loud, but it accurately reached the ears of everyone present.
"Those wizards and minions of the devil have occupied the territory of the empire, killing nobles wantonly, causing the royal family to kill each other, using powerful magic to destroy the church's crusade. Here they spread the knowledge of the devil, and corrupt the hearts of the common people with money and desire. faith..."
"This is a harbinger of the end!"
"And you are the humerus of the empire, the most devout believers of the Lord. The fate of this continent now rests on you and me..."
Cynthia did not give a lengthy pre-war speech. After boosting morale, she arranged everyone's tasks.
It is to create chaos in all parts of the City of Fire and Oil as much as possible. It is very simple but extremely dangerous. Monroe and others know very well that most of the power of the Wizards Council is now concentrated in the City of Fire and Oil, and it can only be described as a narrow escape.
But the moment they were called to the kingdom, everyone present was ready to sacrifice.
Death is nothing to be afraid of, it is just a matter of returning to the Lord’s Kingdom of Heaven, where we can enjoy eternal peace and glory!
Cynthia's eyes swept around everyone, and finally focused on Monroe.
He is the only fanatical believer among everyone, and his strength is not weak.
"Take it, I need you to do another thing." Cynthia stretched out her hand, and a diamond-shaped cube fell out of her palm and fell into Monroe's hand.
Munro was flattered and took the bright crystal, and immediately spoke categorically. "Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty, I will use my life to fulfill your instructions!"
Cynthia opened her lips lightly and explained the method and tasks of using the crystal, and then asked everyone to start taking action.
The hundreds of people gathered in the courtyard immediately dispersed, and Cynthia's figure began to surge like water. The elements that made up the body were broken up and reorganized, and finally transformed into Farrell's appearance.
This is not just as simple as disguising, she can also draw the opponent's soul power at any time to simulate Farrell's magic fluctuations.
In a way, she is Farrell now!
Cynthia took a moment to adapt, then raised her finger to transmit several electromagnetic wave communications.
…
"It's emergency electromagnetic communication. The empire's legions crossed the border from the west and south to invade the kingdom. The number is about 50,000..." "There is also the Steel City of Welsel. They said that the army of the church suddenly appeared under the city..." "How is this possible? The church's legions actually surpassed the surveillance of the airship and appeared inside the kingdom..."
The continuous electromagnetic wave signals made the wizards responsible for receiving communications look horrified.
At this moment, it seemed that the entire kingdom's border cities were under attack. Even the steel city of Welsel, located in the center of the kingdom's eastern border, reported that it had been attacked by the Church Legion.
"What should we do now?" Peirce, who had just become a correspondent, suddenly panicked.
He knew very well that the City of Fire Oil only had more than 30,000 troops, and according to intelligence, the number of the empire's invading legions was probably more than 300,000, and they were spread across the entire border of the kingdom. They had no way to support them one by one.
"Hurry and report to all the Speakers!"
An experienced correspondent responded immediately, but before they could send someone to communicate, a voice came over.
"Don't panic, our communication magic has probably been cracked."
Several wizards present turned their heads and shouted in surprise when they saw Linn pushing the door open.
"Master Lin En?" "Professor Lin En?"
Seeing the arrival of this magic star, Peirce and others couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief. Although the crisis has not been resolved yet, they still feel extremely relieved.
They have all seen Master Lin En's new magic [Skyfall]. No matter how many invading enemies there are, it is meaningless under such terrifying power!
"Why are you so sure?" Aurora's figure slowly emerged from the side. Such a high-frequency electromagnetic wave signal, of course she and Harrov could sense it in the city of kerosene, so they hurried over to confirm.
"Because of time!" Linn said confidently.
Although the propagation speed of electromagnetic waves is equal to the speed of light, due to the problem of propagation range, they use airships as base stations for relay communications.
This will cause a problem of sequence speed. Assuming that the various armies of the empire launch an attack at the same time, the communication information should arrive from near to far. According to the decoding and broadcast speed of the correspondent, the interval will be ten to fifteen seconds. about.
And they had received all the messages for help in almost two to three seconds!
The only possibility is that all the messages were sent by one person, and the other party knew that they were communicating through electromagnetic waves, but did not understand the composition of the communication base station, which left such a flaw.
In addition, he had just demonstrated hydrogen explosion magic that could directly wipe out a city not long ago. How could the empire dare to launch a war on such a scale so easily?
Under Lin En's explanation, Aurora nodded and quickly agreed with the guess, but the worry in her heart did not diminish at all.
Because the news about the electromagnetic wave may have spread throughout the kingdom now, and someone may have already set out to provide support.
Lin En was also quite helpless about this.
Since electromagnetic communication magic has just been researched, it uses the most basic information encryption method, using binary Morse code as the blueprint. The codebook is rotated once a week, so normally it should not be cracked.
After all, although the cardinals and legendary priests of the church possess very powerful power, their scientific and cultural level is limited, and they may not even understand what electromagnetic waves are.
The problem may lie with the correspondents who have the ability to decipher the code.
The art of extracting memories from the brain is not only the specialty of psychic wizards, but a few cardinals also have similar abilities.
In addition, all the great wizards also know how to decipher and send it, so that they can make emergency contact when necessary.
Fortunately, he still had some emergency measures.
Lin En closed his eyes, his index and middle fingers trembled slightly, and a unique electromagnetic wave was emitted.
[Supreme order, everyone returns to their posts and defends the city! 】
All alchemy devices that receive electromagnetic waves are set up with a magic. After sensing this unique electromagnetic wave, it will be copied and forwarded spontaneously, without the need for human control, and will spread throughout the kingdom in a very short time.
Compared with other commands, the highest command priority is unparalleled. This is why Linn set up an insurance to prevent unexpected situations. He is the only one who knows the frequency of this electromagnetic wave.
At this moment, a burst of fire and explosions appeared outside the window.
Lin En looked out the window attentively. Sure enough, the other party sent these messages asking for help just to disrupt their position, and it was best to force them to divide their troops.
"It seems that the church is more urgent than we thought..." Aurora said with a solemn expression.
She originally thought that even if the other party wanted to take action, they would delay it for a few days. After all, the news of the evil god's rebellion in the north had only reached the City of Fire and Oil today. Logically speaking, the council would need at least a day or two to prepare before mobilizing the army. support.
This was also a time difference they deliberately made. By the time the other party thought they were about to send troops for reinforcements, Vittorio had actually solved the matter long ago.
I just didn't expect that the church didn't wait a day and started taking action today.
"Where do you think their target will be?" Aurora suddenly asked. The church must have a motive for launching such a big battle and releasing an evil god in the northern part of the kingdom.
"That's probably the only place!" Lin En replied in a deep voice.
…
With the help of the identity of the great wizard Farrell, Cynthia successfully entered the residence of the Wizards Council.
Joshua's detention place was set up in a secret, spacious basement, and the entrance was in an ordinary warehouse.
This was a storage room specially built by the lords of the City of Fire Oil to preserve their wealth, but now it has become a prison.
If it hadn't been for extracting some information from Farrell's memory, I probably wouldn't have thought that there was a secret room here.
The wizard guarding here quickly bowed and saluted after seeing Cynthia. "Master Farrell, why are you here? We just heard an explosion in the city. Did something happen?"
"It's the imperial spies who have sneaked into the city who are causing disturbances." Cynthia explained in Farrell's usual tone. "President Vittorio asked me to come over to help prevent church personnel from taking advantage of the chaos to rescue the church's presiding judge..."
There was nothing questionable about the reasons given by Cynthia, plus Farrell had served as the warden for a few days before. After verifying his identity, he was released into the basement.
"Who is responsible for guarding here today?" Cynthia asked.
"It's Master Sanchez. He should be in the research room now. You can wait a moment. We have sent someone to notify him." The wizard replied succinctly.
This basement is very wide. Considering that a great wizard cannot stay here for several days doing nothing, a magic research room was specially expanded.
During the conversation, a heavy steel door appeared in front of the two of them.
"There's no need to wait for him any longer!" Cynthia stopped walking and suddenly responded. Then she raised her hand, and a burst of bright starlight appeared around her. Then, in the wizard's horrified and disbelieving eyes, , slammed hard at the door in front of him.
Accompanied by a violent roar that resounded throughout the world, the steel door, which was strong and heavy and blessed with a large amount of protective magic, burst open under the power of the legendary level!
The flying debris scattered in all directions, and the entire surface shook faintly.
"Lord Farrell? You, what are you doing..." A wizard swallowed hard and said with a trembling voice.
Cynthia turned her head and glanced at him indifferently. Under the powerful psychic impact, the wizard who led the way died in an instant, and then walked straight into the prison.
Behind that door is a space covering an area of about one hundred square meters. In the center is the presiding judge Joshua, who has been imprisoned for several months!
His arms had been cut off, and the 'blood' slowly seeping out from the wounds was draining his vitality bit by bit. His whole body was tightly bound by fluorescent alchemical chains. He lowered his head as if he had lost consciousness.
Cynthia's face showed strong anger. Joshua was the messenger of God she personally selected. After completing the ritual, he was also part of her power to a certain extent, but he was treated like this by the wizards. .
Joshua also seemed to sense something. He slowly raised his head and opened his eyes. Although Cynthia stepped here as Farrell, he who possessed part of the 'God's Power' naturally recognized the person in front of him at a glance. The person is the incarnation of the Lord.
However, there was no trace of joy on Joshua's face. Instead, he spoke eagerly to remind him.
"Get out of here, my lord!"
"This is a..."
trap!
Before Joshua could finish his words, fierce eternal flames spurted out from his body and the gaps in the floor tiles under his feet.
At the same moment, the walls around the prison were also opened, and crisscrossing laser beams shot out, forming large nets that encompassed the entire prison.
There was no blind spot or room to hide. The surging flames and laser beams instantly covered Cynthia.
Harrov and Aurora, who had just arrived at the prison, saw the scene of rapid fire spurting out from inside, and suddenly looked at Lin En in confusion.
"Someone triggered the trap." Lin En answered solemnly.
After researching the magic and energy body and finding the way to be promoted to legend, the church's presiding judge naturally has no value anymore.
The reason why he is still kept is because the imperial spy who was captured recently seems to be exploring the place where Joshua is being held. After discussing with Vittorio, he and Vittorio both thought that they might be able to use it, so they set up this prison. became a trap, and Joshua inside was the bait...
Even the great wizard in charge of guarding was not qualified to cross this door. Unless Vittorio personally led people in, they would have to enjoy the gifts they specially prepared.
