However, Lin En still felt that the expected ten years was too long, so he planned to develop some constructive divine arts and personally assist in the construction of some major projects to further shorten the time.
A few hours later, the wizard meeting came to an end. Almost every member of the council was assigned a task. Now was a time of rapid development of the kingdom and there was a shortage of manpower everywhere. Even high-ranking members of the council could not sit idle.
In fact, no one dared to sit there idle, because the changes in the kingdom and the parliament in recent years were so great that if one was not careful, one would be left far behind by the times.
Now the number of great wizards in the kingdom has exceeded two hundred, and the threshold to become a formal member of parliament is gradually increasing. In the past, even if you were a three-ring wizard, you could be nominated as long as you could make enough achievements. Now the minimum threshold is to become a great wizard!
Therefore, those congressmen who have not yet achieved a breakthrough or have failed to achieve a breakthrough are extremely worried, fearing that they will be eliminated.
Tik was one of them. Since he was selected to join the exotic exploration team, his promotion to the great wizard was temporarily delayed. When he submitted his application two days ago, he found out that this year alone, there were 500 three-ring wizards ready to use the computing power of the magic network to complete a breakthrough. Even if one was selected per day, it would take a year and a half for him to be promoted.
Many six-ring wizards have also submitted applications for promotion to legends, because they all know that the number of Speakers cannot be increased indefinitely, otherwise it will violate the original intention of the parliament to establish this position. Who knows, in the future the position of Speaker may need to be held by an eight-ring or even a nine-ring wizard.
All these application letters were gathered together in Lin En's hands. The number of people was unexpectedly large. There was no other good way except to let them line up slowly and use exams to eliminate some of those who did not meet the promotion standards in advance.
Although the computing power of the magic network seems to be sufficient, it has to supply tens of thousands of wizards with power to cast spells, call on a large amount of computing power to assist in promotion, and also reserve a portion to deal with possible threats.
In comparison, Harov and others were much more relaxed. Everything that needed to be arranged had already been arranged, and the only thing they had to do was prepare for tomorrow's moon landing.
Anthony, the least experienced, stayed behind to take charge of the situation to avoid the situation where the parliament was leaderless and suffered heavy casualties in the event of an emergency.
……
A day passed in a flash. Since the moon landing was only announced within the parliament, it did not cause much waves. Only some astrological prophecies and wizards of the astronomical school paid close attention to it.
Yolande was the most enthusiastic and even asked if he could bring a few more people up. It was obvious that he also wanted to see what the moon looked like with his own eyes.
"Not this time. You never know when a fight might break out, and we may not be able to take care of you then." Lin En shook his head and refused bluntly.
It's okay for the legends like Harrov, at least they have the ability to survive in the universe. But Yolande is different. Once he leaves his protection, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on for even a few minutes. Lung explosion is a relatively quick and humane way to die.
Yolande felt quite regretful, but he did not force it. He just watched the speakers fly into the sky in an energy-like manner.
"The moon!" Yolande looked at the bright and twinkling stars in the night sky. According to Speaker Linn, each star represents a star or even an entire galaxy, and there may be kingdoms, churches or wizards on it...
While Yolande and the others were daydreaming, Harof, Aurora and Vittorio had already flown to an altitude of ten thousand meters and penetrated the troposphere, but they still had a long way to go before they could completely fly out of the atmosphere of the Eternal Star.
As the altitude rose rapidly, a hint of fear arose in the hearts of Harof and others. This was not cowardice, but the fear of completely leaving the planet on which they depended for survival and heading into the endless void.
In the vast universe, direction, speed and time seem to have lost their meaning. After flying out of the ionosphere, this feeling becomes more obvious.
Harof was not even sure whether he was flying or how fast he was flying, because Aurora and Vittorio beside him were flying at almost the same speed as him, there was no reference point, and no wind resistance.
The three of them seemed to be floating aimlessly in the void of the universe, and they also gained a better understanding of the concepts of relative speed and relative distance in quantum theory.
"Is this the Eternal Star?" Aurora turned her head and looked at the huge and magnificent planet below, using electromagnetic waves to transmit messages with emotion.
Harof and Vittorio were no exception. Even though they had seen the appearance of planets in the microcosm, they were still astonished by the magnificence and grandeur of the Eternal Star.
The entire planet is azure blue, and most of the area as far as the eye can see is ocean, with islands scattered across it vaguely visible.
In the center of the ocean, there is a continent that occupies one-third of the area in sight. This is the area where the kingdom is located. It is covered by thin clouds. The green part is the forest, the yellow part is the desert, and the white part is the snow...
It turns out that this is the entire picture of the world on which they depend for survival, a unique star of life.
In addition to the continent where the kingdom is located, there are actually several other smaller landmasses on the planet, but they are not on the side that they can see now.
The parliament has recently sent people to explore, and from the latest news, they only found some indigenous people with very low levels of civilization.
Combined with the records in the church documents, thousands of years ago, the people on this continent also survived in the form of tribes. It must be said that the Moon Goddess from foreign lands and the divine system she brought with her greatly improved the level of civilization of the creatures on this planet.
"Okay, let's take a look when we come back. We'll have plenty of time then..." Lin En said with a smile. He had been a spaceship pilot for a period of time in his previous life, and he had seen similar scenes many times, so he was very used to it.
Perhaps because of its magic and its unpolluted nature, the Eternal Star looks much more beautiful than the Earth, with an almost dreamy beauty that makes people intoxicated by it.
"By the way, Speaker Lin, how is Artok?" Vittorio suddenly thought of this colleague who had turned into a quantum form, and kept asking.
Since Lynn has broken through the divine realm and possesses the ability to interfere with higher dimensions, he might be able to rescue Artok.
"Unfortunately, it's too late. I went to the wizard's land a few days ago, and his consciousness had completely dissipated. Even his domain showed signs of collapse." Lin En said helplessly.
If I could have achieved the breakthrough a month or two earlier, maybe the other party could have been saved. Now I'm afraid he is about to be assimilated.
Hearing this, Harof and the others were silent for a while, and they couldn't help but sigh after a long time. However, this result was not beyond their expectations. Even the promotion to legend had many risks, not to mention the deification ceremony.
Trying to control power far beyond your own capabilities is an extremely dangerous thing.
Then there was a long silence. The sad news made the three of them feel a little depressed, and no one spoke during the rest of the journey.
Flying in the vast universe is undoubtedly boring. All the novelty is consumed within a few days, and what remains is endless dark space.
After an unknown amount of time, the planet beneath their feet became smaller and smaller. Aurora became a little impatient and began to vaguely suspect that she had walked into the wrong place. Then Harof suddenly spoke.
"Look, it's the moon, it's coming towards us!"
Several people immediately looked in the direction pointed by Harof. A silver-gray dot was slowly approaching. As the distance got closer, its size gradually increased. Just as they had calculated before, the moon's revolution would just reach in front of them!
“This is…” Lin En, who was also watching this scene, had a solemn expression, because from a higher-dimensional perspective, this was not a planet at all, but a corpse—the dead body of the Moon God!
Chapter 565: Sword cuts the moon, Mobius Barrier!
"What's wrong? Speaker Lin?" Aurora looked at Lin, whose expression suddenly changed, and asked in confusion.
Although no sound can be heard in a vacuum, as legends they are still able to communicate through electromagnetic waves and the language of the soul.
Lynn said nothing but connected them to the magic net.
Harov and the others looked at the speeding moon again, and they felt a chill in their hearts.
They saw a female corpse that was so large that it was unimaginable, shrouded in starlight, and floating in the void of the universe!
The opponent's status is somewhat similar to that of Artok, but the coverage area of the probability cloud is countless times larger, covering the entire moon!
The most striking thing was that there was a huge hole on the chest of the female corpse, almost tearing the entire body in half!
This is undoubtedly Diana, the goddess of the moon!
Lin En understood it instantly. It seemed that when the Moon Goddess Diana first came to this universe, she did not arrive at the Eternal Star, but at the Moon!
The other party first took the time to take control of and assimilate this satellite, and then stepped into the Eternal Star, where they built several portals, preparing to further expand the divine domain to this planet with life.
In fact, he was able to complete the ascension ceremony in a few days thanks to the preparations made by Diana, the goddess of the moon. It took N years to infuse a large amount of magic power into this world, saving him some complicated steps.
Of course, due to Lin En's limited mental power, he is currently only in charge of a continent, not an entire planet or plane like Diana.
"Is this the cause of death of Diana, the Moon Goddess?" Harof said in horror.
The entire moon is the body of the Moon God. In his opinion, these trillions of tons of matter are enough to crush any existence!
The other party actually died just like that, and unlike the Lord of the Undead, he died in his own divine domain!
Who in this universe could do such a horrible thing?
Lin En was also a little surprised. According to his previous speculation, the Moon God was weakened after arriving in this world due to the different rules of the universe, and then he left the divine realm and fell due to unknown danger.
But it seems different now. The opponent has assimilated a satellite and lost at home.
But since Diana died here, how did Ella gain godhood?
Could it be that she has also been to the moon?
As Lin En was thinking, the huge satellite that was getting closer and closer to them suddenly moved.
That's right, the entire moon started moving. It was slowly rotating, with strong starlight appearing on its surface, and it was accelerating towards the few people.
A planet tens of trillions of times larger than oneself is rushing towards oneself. This feeling is indescribable...
Harof, Aurora, and Vittorio all felt their souls shrouded in an indescribable sense of powerlessness rising from within.
"Is she still alive?" Aurora asked in disbelief.
"It's probably just the remnant of consciousness!" Lynn explained.
There is no doubt that the Moon Goddess Diana is dead, or perhaps she is not completely dead. Her godhead, god domain, and god body are all still there, but her godhead has been stripped away and her body has been severely damaged. However, she still retains a certain degree of power.
It was obvious that it was Harof who called out the other party's name of God at close range, so he was sensed!
This is a conditioned reflex...
But even so, facing a planet rushing over, no one dared to ignore it even if it was just a satellite. Lin En raised both hands, a large amount of the most basic hydrogen elements were gathering on his left hand, and his right hand was continuously generating anti-hydrogen atoms.
In just a few moments, the moon was getting closer and closer to them.
This is a planet that is ten thousand times taller than a mountain and wider than the ocean. Under the enormous pressure, the minds of Haro and others were stretched to the extreme.
Three seconds later, Vittorio, unable to bear the terrifying pressure, took the first step!
Harulf and Aurora followed soon after.
【The End - Atomic Breath】
Three terrifying energy waves burst out instantly and flew directly towards the oncoming moon. This was the most powerful magic mastered by Harof and others, a stellar-level power!
The diameter of the light cone increased rapidly from small to large, and the energy wave soon covered a diameter of more than several kilometers, but even so, it only covered less than one thousandth of the lunar surface.
This is the wizard's challenge to God!
The huge cone of light soon hit the starlight covering the surface of the moon, and a ball of dazzling fire suddenly bloomed under the starry sky. Endless energy, accompanied by violent shocks, spread in all directions!
Lin En shook his head, indeed he was not optimistic about this massive attack.
After all, the power... is too dispersed!
As the light cone spreads, the energy density drops rapidly.
If Harof and others could withstand the pressure and act later, they might have a chance to break through the protective barrier of the moon.
Sure enough, just as Lin En thought, after the flames faded, the huge satellite was not damaged at all, and even its speed did not slow down at all. The only effect was to shave off a layer of starlight on the surface.
"This is really..." Harov smiled bitterly, feeling depressed.
Even though they tried their best, they were unable to break through the defenses set up by a dead god. The gap was simply too huge!
At this moment, Lin En took action, and the atoms and anti-electrons gathered and collided together.
This is exactly the super-level magic [Antimatter Sword] that was used in the previous battle with the Lord of the Dead!
The neutrons that make up the blade are one of the hardest substances in the universe, and the annihilation energy is also the most powerful blade!
In almost a moment, the length of this antimatter sword exceeded two kilometers.
Facing the moon that was heading straight for him, Lin En raised his hand and waved it down with a cold look!
The starlight barrier covering the surface of the moon, which had withstood three shots of [End - Atomic Breath], was instantly penetrated like paper by the billions of degrees of high temperature and annihilation energy, and then directly slashed on the desert land behind!
