That's the problem.

God never acknowledged their status as believers.

When the first ray of morning sun broke through the darkness and passed through the window and fell on Zhang Mu's face, who had not slept all night, he raised his bloodshot eyes:

“The only believer in God in Sol Continent is the Pope.

So... the teacher and the seniors... are just conflicts between humans after all."

The sufferings endured by the creatures on the continent of Thor all come from themselves.

It has nothing to do with God.

This answer made him feel that Potter's persistence and risking his life were just a joke.

Rebel against God?

God has done nothing, why rebel against him?

Just because he was there?

After exhaling, Zhang Mu stood up, feeling a little heavy, and planned to go to the front yard to get some fresh air.

"crunch-"

Just after taking a few steps, the study door was suddenly pushed open from the outside.

Palina, wearing a long dress, walked in with a wooden tray. "Lord City Lord, are you going out without having breakfast?"

He smiled as usual: "Professionals don't rely entirely on food to replenish their bodies."

"Just need it?"

Normally, Palina seldom dared to go against Zhang Mu's will, but when it came to eating, she was always strangely stubborn.

He pushed Zhang Mu back into the wooden chair behind the desk and watched him finish his breakfast. Only then, satisfied, did he jump out of the house with the tray in his arms.

Shaking his head with a dumb smile, Zhang Mu got up and rushed out of the city.

……

Time always passes quickly in days without ups and downs.

The cold wind howling in the wilderness gradually warmed up, the gray woods outside the city of Gul turned green, and the clothes worn by the citizens gradually became thinner.

Some more time passed.

The warm word that people use to indicate rising temperatures was replaced by hot. The gray-green forest completely leaned towards the latter, and everyone changed into short-sleeved shirts and shorts.

Summer is here.

A lot has happened in these four months.

First, Zhang Mu took magic potions without considering the cost and spent a lot of time practicing meditation every day, and finally became a senior magician before the war came.

Taking into account the blessing, it is equivalent to a magician and finally stepped into the threshold of high-level professionals.

Although there are definitely more than just wizards coming from the Lagu Kingdom, and the number is definitely plural, but Zhang Mu has the resurrection function on the panel, and he can deal with it with a good plan.

In his imagination, Domit and Soran led the army to block the enemy outside the Silent Forest.

At the same time, report to the royal capital.

With solid evidence, the royal family only needs to send someone to take a look and there will be no more doubts.

Zhang Mu also considered giving up the advantageous city wall and choosing to place the battlefield on the edge of the Quiet Forest.

The city cannot be surrounded by the enemy, otherwise the city of Gur, whose channels for information transmission are blocked, will sooner or later die due to lack of ammunition and food.

It is not a good idea to send someone out a few days in advance to tip off the situation.

Zhang Mu estimated that there were probably high-level professionals like Lagu lurking in Gul City for a long time, and if he sent anyone out, they would not be able to escape the pursuit.

In this case, we might as well place the front line in the Silent Forest to prevent the enemy from setting up a sealing array around Gul City. Zhang Mu can then report to the royal family as soon as the war begins.

In addition, as long as the enemy is trapped in the Silent Forest long enough, and all the migrating monsters return...

They died in an ugly way.

Then, the second phase of the project was successfully completed last month.

Although the workers, who were well-off, were looking forward to the start of the third phase of construction, Zhang Mu announced the suspension of work after completing the construction and artificial forests, and the date would be announced at a later date.

Zhang Mu was not completely sure that he could stop the enemy in the Silent Forest.

For safety reasons, let’s wait until the war is over for the third phase.

One last thing, Joffrey made a big breakthrough in his research.

After countless tests and improvements, he successfully designed the first mature magic rifle that could be mass-produced and put into use.

Considering Zhang Mu's requirement of "mainly targeting low-level professionals and ordinary soldiers", this rifle does not completely abandon kinetic energy killing.

Putting aside the magic shield, the bullets are still quite powerful.

The reason why Zhang Mu made such a request was because "magic technology" was in its infancy.

There is no need to say much about its potential. He believes that in the future everyone in the entire Thor continent can become a magician, and it is not an illusion that all magicians will put down their staffs and raise their pistols.

But this requires exactly the time that Zhang Mu currently lacks the most.

Zhang Mu was not sure how long it would take for magical weapons to develop to the point where they could threaten high-level or even top professionals, but he only knew that it would take years at least.

Anyway, we will definitely not be able to end the war with the Lagu Kingdom in time.

Instead of doing everything at once, it is better to focus on improving one aspect.

As for why they don't just go full steam ahead and produce full-kinetic energy firearms, the reason is simple - to give ordinary soldiers the ability to fight back when they encounter professionals.

Professionals, especially magicians, have mental power that crushes ordinary people.

In this situation, no matter how many soldiers with guns there are, it will be useless if their minds penetrate them. At most, the players can kill a few of them by sneak attack, but in the end, they will still be wiped out.

Joffrey's magic rifle partially solves this problem.

He gave up on attacking magic and magic power storage modules, and instead installed two cores for storing mental power to defend against mental attacks from professionals.

Due to the upper limit of its reserves, it can currently only withstand the mental piercing of the highest-level junior magicians.

enough.

In kingdom-level battles, on arduous and dangerous fronts, you usually encounter professionals at the highest level, which is the beginner level.

Intermediate and advanced ones mostly draw magic circles in the rear to provide fire support to the front.

No matter how high the magician is, it is meaningless to simply defend against mental power.

After Zhang Mu fired the magic rifle himself, he immediately ordered the arsenal, which had expanded production several times, to operate at full capacity.

Not long ago, enough had been produced to equip a legion of 10,000 people, as well as matching bullets, mental power cores, etc.

Today, the workers in the "world" finished counting and packing the items. After Zhang Mu inspected and accepted them, he led Soran to Moza Village early in the morning.

Chapter 213: The Mage——Zhang Mu, the ability to fight against magicians

The war on Sol Continent is very different from that on Blue Star.

Not only was it reflected in the fact that due to church regulations, they were forced to choose the strategy of besieging the city instead of attacking it, which violated common sense in war.

There is also the strange phenomenon that field battles rarely occur and even very few people die.

Most importantly, the Sol Continent army does not need a baggage train when marching.

Well known.

Logistics is a key factor in determining the outcome of a corps or even an entire war.

Whether on Blue Star or Sol Continent, there are countless wars that have been lost due to the looting of food and supplies.

Both sides love to attack logistics troops.

There are many reasons, the main one being that without food the soldiers will go hungry, and if they are hungry they will have no fighting capacity and will mutiny and collapse without a fight.

In addition, the team transporting supplies usually does not move very fast, making it easy to launch a surprise attack.

This is common sense on Blue Star, but it is a little different on Sol Continent.

There is basically no chance of a supply convoy being attacked on Sol Continent.

It’s not that the generals can’t fight.

The reason why everyone gave up the idea of ​​"winning by surprise" all lies in "the world".

The preciousness of the "world" that Zhang Mu obtained in the Quiet Forest needs no further explanation.

As the most powerful magic family in the first empire of the Thor continent, the things they used to store their treasures could not be cheap.

Naturally, there are very few magical families and kingdoms that can possess it.

But if there is no good one, you can still get the near-good one.

Usually when a kingdom launches a war, it will at least equip its main force with a "world" that is large enough to carry military supplies.

Being collected closely by the strongest professionals in the army not only avoids the trouble of logistical disruption but also makes replenishment convenient.

All one person needs to do is travel back and forth between the rear and the front line.

That’s what Zhang Mu did.

In order to lure Joey to Moza Village, he sent the pre-modified guns to the Lagu Kingdom to mislead the enemy into misjudging his own combat power. He directly mobilized the convoy in the city to transport the guns to the village.

This time we have to hide it from all outsiders, so we obviously can't be so blatant.

Early in the morning.

Zhang Mu and Soran crossed the gate of Gur City one after another.

It's not something worth worrying about.

Although many people in Gul City were watching him at this time, the "city lord" would go out of the city every few days to inspect the construction site every few months.

Especially in recent days, perhaps because the project is about to be completed, he has been running more diligently.

I go there almost every day.

So when we went out early this morning, no one thought there was anything unusual.
