Although the opponent's counterattack was fierce, in Joshua's view it was just a fight of trapped beasts. After their magic power was exhausted, these people completely lost the ability to fight against them.

As for the huge rift that divided the battlefield, he didn't even need to take any action. Several cardinals worked together and used divine power to create a series of wide and passable high bridges.

Saint Lucia beside her was also watching this scene, but she vaguely sensed something was wrong because Harof and others were casting magic at such a cost. She then raised her head, looked at the scorching sun in the sky, and murmured.

"Did you notice? The sunlight seems to have dimmed!"

Chapter 408: Everything Returns to Nothingness - Sunshine

Got darker?

Joshua frowned and looked up at the sky, indeed sensing a hint of uneasiness.

"It's magic!" Lucia said casually. According to her perception, a strong fluctuation of magic appeared in the sky above the battlefield hundreds of meters away from them, and was spreading towards this side.

She hadn't noticed it before because the frequent spellcasting by those wizards would indeed cause the concentration of magic power in a certain area to increase greatly. So Lucia didn't notice it until the concentration of magic power exceeded the threshold.

But it's obviously too late to react now, Lin En's magic has already been released!

“It’s getting dark!”

This time, it was not just Lucia who felt it. The soldiers charging on the battlefield all felt it clearly, because the area within a radius of several kilometers suddenly changed from day to dusk. Such a strange scene made even the most staunch believers feel a little hesitant.

When everyone looked up, they were shocked to find a huge transparent "mirror" appeared above their heads.

It looked like a translucent inverted pot, blocking out the scorching midday sun.

Lin En raised his hand, and the brightness of the entire battlefield dropped several degrees again. The scorching sunlight from the sky was immediately deflected and focused together after passing through the huge magnifying glass.

"Everything returns to nothing - the sun shines!"

This ancient line popped up in Lin En's mind, and 90% of the magic power sent over this time disappeared, and even the power of the magic net was used to a certain extent!

The next moment, a column of light in the shape of an inverted cone with a diameter of one hundred meters and a nearly infinite height fell from the sky!

The sunlight covering the entire battlefield was compressed into an area of ​​100 meters. The bright light was so strong that it was blinding and it was difficult for everyone present to open their eyes. Then a burst of sharp screams and wails suddenly resounded throughout the battlefield.

"Ahhh!"

The imperial soldiers within the range of the light column were evaporated on the spot due to the high temperature comparable to the surface of a star!

The Divine Punishment Knights, who were protected by divine magic, lived longer, but this was nothing but torture. Their warhorses neighed and fell to the ground. The armor on their bodies was melted into molten iron, sizzling in the scorching heat, and the shirts inside were even burned...

Under the sweep of the beam, the grass and trees withered and collapsed, the ground dried up and cracked, and thousands of imperial legions were instantly set on fire into balls of fire...

All beings are equal in a temperature that exceeds that on the surface of a star. Even giants with high magic resistance have no power to resist and are directly roasted into a charred corpse!

"It's a legendary magic!" Joshua's pupils constricted.

The speed of light was so fast and so rapid that it took only one second for the light beam to focus and sweep out. More than two thousand imperial soldiers died instantly before their eyes!

"In the name of the Lord, arrows of judgment!"

Joshua raised the scepter in his hand and roared loudly. Hundreds of arrows flashing with the light of divine magic appeared in the void, pointing directly at the inverted magnifying glass above his head.

These arrows were all imbued with special magic-breaking powers, and the mirror covering the entire battlefield made it impossible to move or dodge!

A dense rain of arrows flew out, as dazzling as meteors, and soon collided with the huge magnifying glass.

The mirror was much more fragile than Joshua had expected. Without any obstruction, it exploded in an instant, and countless fragments flew everywhere and fell to the ground.

"It seems to be just a decoration!" Joshua breathed a sigh of relief. This was much easier to deal with than he had imagined.

"It's not that simple..." Lucia shook her head. She did not rush to take action, but instead tried her best to sense the position of the caster.

This body has great restrictions on her. Even though she has been "nurturing" it for seven or eight years, the power she can exert is still extremely limited due to the low degree of compatibility.

Sure enough, the next second after Lucia opened her mouth, dozens of large shattered focusing mirrors did not fall down, but floated in the air, changing their shapes and turning into smaller "focusing mirrors".

With Lin En's current computing power, it is simply a fantasy to reorganize the magic in such a short time, but it is different with the help of the magic network and intelligent brain.

The spell model can be completed by the intelligent brain mobilizing the computing power of other wizards in the magic network, and the whole process is compressed into one second!

The Imperial expeditionary army, which had not yet recovered from the terrifying sight of the hundred-meter-long light column, was soon baptized by laser beams!

In an instant, dozens of secondary laser beams spread across the entire battlefield. Although the power was much reduced compared to the previous [Sunshine], the attack range was expanded by more than ten times!

Several imperial soldiers who were lucky enough to avoid the light column were suddenly swept by the laser beam. Before they could react, their bodies were cut in half from top to bottom. Similar scenes were played out everywhere on the battlefield.

Joshua's expression suddenly became extremely ugly.

"Found it!" Lucia looked towards a certain direction in the distant sky, stretched out her right hand, and clenched it tightly.

Lin En, who was hiding in the sky with the help of polarization magic and controlling the focusing magic, began to twist and deform his entire body. If he had a physical body, he would have been crushed by now!

Even so, cracks have begun to appear on the [Ring of Mysticism] which serves as the core, and it will explode in an instant.

"Good perception ability!" Lin En was quite surprised. You know, he is now a magic projection and can be hidden very well in the area with strong magic.

He thought it would take some time for the other party to find him, but he didn't expect it to be so quick.

Before the secret ring he relied on completely exploded, Lin En used his last bit of strength to control a huge refracting mirror, directing the gathered light to the place where the divine magic fluctuations were the strongest.

That was exactly the direction where Lucia was. This saint of the Holy See had already raised her hand before the beam of light fell, and a smooth mirror appeared in front of her. The powerful laser beam was directly reflected back and pierced through Lin's body at an unimaginable speed, directly shattering the secret ring that was the core inside.

It seems that this is the only way out...Lin En thought so, but he also saw clearly the woman who bounced the laser back.

He looked to be about twenty-three or twenty-four years old, wearing a crown and a white holy robe, and his emerald green eyes sparkled like stars.

Combining the information he had collected previously, Lin En immediately guessed the other party's identity. After losing its support, the body made of magic power quickly disintegrated...

Chapter 409: A single person blocks the expeditionary force. This will surely be a battle that will go down in history!

As the caster disappeared, the laser beams that were continuously shooting down from the sky also stopped.

The battlefield was in a mess at this moment, with countless pieces of rubble and mud lying around, and pieces of scorched earth scattered all over the ground. Tens of thousands of soldiers were burned by the light, with black smoke coming out of their bodies. Some had already fainted, while others were still barely holding on, and they had all lost their combat effectiveness.

The Imperial Legion, which had originally prepared for a surprise attack and forced the entire musketeer team to flee, suffered heavy casualties in an instant.

Some soldiers with weak faith even developed a fear and panic of the sunlight. When the warm sunlight shone on their bodies, they screamed in fear.

A burst of floating hymns soon resounded across the tragic battlefield. Under the scorching sun, green rain began to fall from the sky...

The ferocious expression on the face of the wounded who was wailing in pain gradually calmed down after coming into contact with the raindrops. He fell into a deep sleep and the burns on his body slowly subsided.

This is the legendary magic - Rain of Blessing!

Performed by Lucia herself, the range was enough to cover the entire battlefield, and those imperial soldiers who were still alive, whether they had been burned or had broken limbs, were recovering rapidly from their injuries.

Fluorescence also appeared on the bodies of the victims.

The second function of the rain of grace is to receive the souls of the departed into the kingdom of God.

"May their souls obtain eternal protection and enjoy everlasting joy in the Kingdom of God..." Several bishops sang hymns loudly.

Lucia, who was casting divine magic, counted the casualties within a minute. About 4,000 people died under the magic, and tens of thousands were injured...

The only good news is that most of the casualties were ordinary soldiers, and the Divine Punishment Knights were wearing reflective silver armor and had multiple protections, which could resist the power of lasers to a large extent. However, under the previous [Sunshine], they suffered more than a thousand casualties.

"Your Highness Lucia, do we need to continue the pursuit?" Joshua asked, looking at the messy battlefield in front of him.

"Let's take care of the wounded first." Lucia shook her head. Although she cured these people's injuries, the morale of the Imperial Legion had been severely damaged.

And in just a short while, the scattered musketeers had calmed down and evacuated out of sight in an orderly manner.

Continuing the pursuit would obviously not achieve any good results.

"Do you have any information about this wizard?" Lucy suddenly stretched out her hand, and a curtain of water suddenly appeared in front of her.

In the water curtain was a young brown-haired wizard.

"If I'm not mistaken, his name should be Lin En, and he's a great wizard! He is called the Magic Star by those believers of the evil god. It is rumored that all the strange things that emerged in the wizard's land seem to be related to him..." Joshua said solemnly.

After Edwyre led the punitive army to defeat the kingdom, they increased their attention to intelligence. Although most of the spies they sent out were discovered by the other side, they also obtained a lot of useful intelligence.

It is rumored that all the changes that occurred in the wizarding land, including muskets, cannons, airships and the running iron box, were the work of this magic star.

The reward for the other party’s head within the Vatican has exceeded one million!

Lucia secretly memorized the name, and then with a thought, a musket flew over from a distance and landed in her hand.

She was still very interested in the new weapons displayed by these wizards, but the Sunshine that Lin En had just fired was obviously very targeted, melting all the armored vehicles and artillery in the positions on the battlefield into a pool of molten iron.

The only thing they got was this thing called a musket...

At the same time, taking advantage of the chaos of the Imperial Legion, Harof, who had fled several kilometers away, was relieved to see that the other side had no intention of chasing him. It seemed that they were safe for the time being.

"Is this the four-ring magic that Master Lin En mentioned?" The expression on Sanchez's face was a little strange. Although he had been running away before, he had also paid attention to the battle situation behind him.

In fact, as long as they are not blind, anyone can see the huge light column with a diameter of one hundred meters. Its power can only be described as terrifying!

Even the legendary magic is only this good...

They don’t know the outcome of the battle yet, but they think the other side must have suffered heavy casualties, and the Holy See will not be able to take care of them in the short term.

"This is indeed within the scope of fourth-ring magic." Harof shook his head. He was also surprised at the power of the spell, but he could see that it was not a power that Lin En himself possessed, but rather a power that utilized the principles of refraction and focusing of light.

That mirror magic was like a lever, leveraging the power of the star above their heads...

In other words, it was not Lin En who released this legendary magic, but the sun above their heads!

It's summer now, that's why magic is so powerful!

After Harov's explanation, Sanchez finally understood, but he still admired Lynn's imagination and creativity in magic.

……

Being praised by everyone, Lin En regained consciousness.

It was not easy to control an incarnation to complete such a huge spell from a distance of hundreds of kilometers. The loss of mental power was so serious that his brain felt swollen.

"Dean Lin, are you okay?" Raphael asked anxiously.

They were just discussing whether or not to send an airship to provide emergency assistance, when Lin En suddenly raised his hand to stop him from talking, then he closed his eyes and sat there without moving.

"Fortunately, I'm fine!" Lin En rubbed his temple, looked at Raphael and others, and announced the good news. "Speaker Harrov and the others should be safe now!"

Hearing this, all the wizards present breathed a sigh of relief, and Pierce asked curiously, "So you were trying to contact Speaker Harrov just now?"

"No, I went there myself."
