In San Ivansburg …
When the meteor streaked across the sky and smashed at Allyn like a storm, Belkovsky, the pontiff of the North Church, sensed it in his heart although he did not see anything. Looking at the ceiling with delicate embossments, he mumbled to himself in shock, "Viken has taken action? They're going to capture the artificial planet? "
He and the Grand Cardinals of the North Church had made a plan a long time ago. They were going to take advantage of the chaos when the South Church captured the artificial planets of the Congress of Magic. They were even planning how to push the matter behind the scenes in case the South Church did nothing and gave the artificial planets more room to develop. However, when it really happened, he did not move at all. He did not even summon the saints and the other Grand Cardinals.
It was because the South Church's action was too quick and decisive that the Congress of Magic did not react at all. Naturally, the chaotic battle that they imagined was not going to happen. At this moment, after they jumped to the orbit through the transmission magic circles that they had set up in advance, they would only see the backs of the Grand Cardinals of the South Church leaving, welcoming the reinforcements of the Congress of Magic that came too late, and bearing the fury of the Congress of Magic on behalf of the South Church!
Who would be willing to take the blame for someone else when there were no benefits?
"The Congress of Magic couldn't have done nothing, could it? However strong Viken is, he wouldn't dare stay outside of Lance for too long. How can he suppress so many top legends and grand arcanists? "Belkovsky slightly frowned, sensing the anomaly of the whole thing.
Under normal circumstances, Viken should've attacked Allyn and stalled the top legends and part of the grand arcanists, but he could not stop all of them. He would've been teleported to the orbit with the other legendary sorcerers and had a great battle with Melmax and the other Grand Cardinals. Although they couldn't stop the South Church from taking away the artificial planet because they were too slow, the chaotic battle that they had been looking forward to would've taken place. However, the sky was absolutely quiet right now! Where were the grand arcanists of the Congress of Magic?
Without the lead of the grand arcanists, the other legends wouldn't have come to the orbit through the projection of the artificial planet, because they were two levels lower than Melmax and would've been crushed. If Melmax still carried the Purging Cross, it was possible that he would've really perished!
The prophecy divine power was immediately performed. Because the thing was still going on, and nobody tried to interfere with or cover the trajectory of fate, Belkovsky immediately understood the situation. The lunatic "Will of Abyss" had arrived at the northland without any sign!
"He cooperated with Viken?" Belkovsky was as amused as if he had heard the notification of his death. He did not believe it at all. There was only one way to cooperate with the Will of Abyss, which was to set up a ritual that could summon him and open the barrier of the plane. Then, if there happened to be enemies around the ritual that needed to be dealt with, he would work hard to kill them.
Therefore, Belkovsky would rather believe that Viken took advantage of the "brainlessness" of the Will of Abyss. But how did he summon it? It was always costly to invite a demigod who did not belong to the main material plane to arrive. But this time, there was no sign at all, and there was no "Paradise on Earth" as a cover on the surface …
Belkovsky thought about Viken's approach to avoid being dealt with in the same way in the future. Suddenly, his "heart of faith" rippled again. The amazing premonition made him blink to the window and look at the sky.
In the gloomy winter afternoon, there seemed to be a bright flash of light in the sky.
Other people might not have noticed it, but Belkovsky, as the strongest top legend, had no trouble at all. He narrowed his eyes. "An artificial planet has exploded?"
"And it's as powerful as legendary!"
"The heretics of the South Church didn't even perform the elimination divine spells? They can't be so stupid, can they? "
He suddenly felt lucky that he did not take action. Otherwise, not only would his efforts have been in vain, but he would've also exposed his purpose and pissed off the Congress of Magic.
Although interests mattered most in the cooperation, chances were that the Congress of Magic would return the favor one day.
… …
On the empty orbit, Saint Kati, Astira, and the rest of them, who were on alert far away, sensed the anomaly of the artificial planet when they sensed the scorching heat of molten gold and fossil. The overwhelming storm of energy swept out like a torrent.
"Not good!"
"How did this happen?"
While they had similar thoughts, the divine items on their bodies were triggered, only to be drowned by the storm of energy.
Fernando and Hathaway's fission reactor was mainly based on the reverse cracking of the spell "atomic fission" and their own studies on the fission reaction. They had a general understanding of the role of neutrons in it, but they did not have enough details and were far from being able to make use of it smoothly. In Lucien's words, the core of their fission reactor was an atomic bomb, and the energy was released slowly with magic. That was why it went out of control all the time and caused a legendary explosion.
After the "Purging Cross" eliminated the magic circles outside and the effect of the isolation reaction was gone, the "failed reactor" installed inside the artificial planet began to function. At this moment, the elimination effect was far from the core, and it was impossible to eliminate the reactor magic circles inside.
When the fission reaction officially began, it would be a natural process instead of a supernatural power and therefore could not be eliminated. The magic circles that could be eliminated were the parts that could release the energy slowly for utilization. Therefore, the explosion after it went out of control was even more thorough and powerful!
The dazzling light swept across everything around with overwhelming energy. The artificial planet at the core was completely vaporized, and all kinds of tricky "curses" were savaging the area.
After the light died down, Melmax, Philip, and the other Grand Cardinals reappeared. Some of them were covered in the "Blessed Realm", and some of them had six pure white wings on their backs.
Melmax, who was standing at the front, held the longsword "Holy Avenger" with both hands. Surrounded by light, he eliminated the invisible curses.
"Thankfully, it's not Eternal Blaze …" He said to Philip in a low voice. There was no telling whether he was in a good mood. "Be careful of the curse. Don't be careless. Although it doesn't seem to be very harmful, the consequences won't be light."
Although "Atomic Fission" could reach level three of legendary according to the level of the spellcaster or the number of casting materials, the artificial planet could only carry out level one of legendary due to the limited magic circles and casting materials. It could not hurt Melmax, a legendary Knight at the peak of legendary, at all.
However, it did not mean that Melmax was not scared. If it had been the "Eternal Blaze" that he had experienced before, he probably would've been heavily wounded again after he recovered from the previous injuries. Or rather, there might've been irrecoverable problems because of the consecutive wounds.
Philip, who was behind him, was rather embarrassed. Had it not been for Melmax's block, he probably would've been heavily wounded. He asked in fury and disbelief, "Why did the magic circle explode after it was eliminated by the 'Purge Cross'?"
He couldn't figure it out at all!
If he hadn't eliminated it with the 'Purge Cross', suppressing the magic circle at the periphery of the artificial planet and dragging it back would've taken him more time, which would've made it more likely that he would run into a legendary sorcerer. However, such an unbelievable situation happened after he used the 'Purge Cross'!
"Perhaps a legendary spell was sealed inside. A legendary spell that had already been activated, so it naturally burst out after you removed the seal." Melmax speculated based on his experience.
"That's impossible. That's a legendary spell, and the artificial planet is not a legendary item. Also, under the elimination effect, all the extraordinary power will be eliminated whether or not it works at all." Philip shook his head in confusion and fury.
"Stop!" In their divine power channel that was similar to the telepathic bond, Saint Kati's voice echoed solemnly, "Don't bother about why it happened. The most important thing right now is what we should do next. Should we continue to capture the artificial planet nearby, or should we evacuate? Time is of the essence. I don't want to fight the grand arcanists! "
They had chosen this artificial planet because there was another one not far away as a backup target.
Philip calmed down. His facial muscles twisted for a while, before he finally shook his head and said, "Evacuate. It's already past the time when the Congress of Magic cannot react, unless His Holiness is willing to continue suppressing it. However, in that case, the Silver Moon and hell will have a chance to besiege His Holiness. If His Holiness is heavily wounded because of that, we will be in a very tricky situation when the Angel King does not respond. "
It was self-evident which was more important, the pope or the artificial planet!
Frustration and fury rose in the hearts of the Grand Cardinals, but there was nothing they could do. Once such an operation lost the suddenness and the time difference, it would basically be a failure, unless they were willing to turn a temporary operation into a full-scale war.
Ivory light glowed, and Melmax and the other Grand Cardinals disappeared from the orbit. They came in haste and left helplessly.
On another artificial planet not far away, silver-white lines lit up, forming a strange magic circle. It made the surroundings look like an illusion, as if it was connected to another world. There was a raging storm, and there was also a harmonious nature.
With the magic circle, Douglas, Fernando and the rest of them arrived with their projections. Then, they connected their demiplanes and transformed their projections into their real bodies.
"They didn't come here. How fast they ran." Seeing that the artificial planet was unusually quiet, Fernando mocked.
Douglas smiled. "They were not projected by the devil of greed. How could they not have sensed the danger? If they had come, at least one of them would've died. "
"I was hoping that they would come here and 'loot' the debris of the artificial planet after a great battle." Said Lucien, somewhat regretfully.
"Why?" Hellen could not immerse herself in arcana and magic studies at this moment, so she asked, which was rare of her.
