Chapter 532

~10 min read 1,874 words

Dionysius Spencer stood on the observation deck of the command room, looking at the twinkling lights of the enemy camp on the distant horizon, and spoke calmly: "Start."

The voice was not high, but it clearly reached the ears of every Wizard through the magic array spread throughout the camp.

There was no impassioned pre-war mobilization, no heart-stirring slogans.

Only one word.

But everyone understood the weight of this word.

The defensive lines composed of cannon fodder units such as elemental creatures, constructs, and summoned objects surged out of the camp like a tide, spreading out layer by layer on the outermost periphery of the defensive circle.

Under the command of the Wizards, they silently lined up in formation, guarding against the impact that could come at any time.

And inside the camp, in all the fortresses, every Wizard was in position.

From Level 3 Wizards to Level 6 elites, from the logistics department to the combat department, no matter what field they specialized in, at this moment, a small transmission magic array the size of a palm, engraved with precise patterns, was placed in front of them.

This is the "mental power power supply node" of the super-wide-area transmutation array.

"Start transmission."

With the second order from the command room, the entire camp lit up.

That was a pale blue halo visible to the naked eye, triggered by the aggregation of excessive energy when countless mental powers poured into the magic array at the same time.

A Level 5 Wizard closed his eyes, pressed his hands on the transmission magic array, and let his mental power pour out like a floodgate opening.

Even those Wizards who had not fully recovered gritted their teeth in the nutrient pods, injecting all their remaining power into the magic array.

At the same moment, the entire plane moved.

Looking down from high altitude, one could see this desolate abandoned plane, its surface from gray-white plains to craggy mountains, from dried-up riverbeds to dead basins—countless different locations, at the same instant, lit up with faint light.

Those lights were scattered and isolated at first, like sparse fireflies in the dark.

But soon, they began to spread, connect, and intertwine.

One light connected to another.

The halo of one area merged into the halo of another area.

In just a few breaths, the entire continent, from south to north, from east to west, every inch of land was covered by a faint golden light that seemed to exist or not.

That is the light of the transmutation array.

Super-wide-area transmutation array—activated.

"Alchemist array, take over control." Dionysius's voice sounded again.

Deep in the camp, in a huge space specially opened up, more than 20,000 Wizards specializing in alchemy sat cross-legged.

In front of them were more precise and larger control magic arrays, and above their heads was real-time information about the material distribution of the entire plane gathered through countless nodes.

Leading them were dozens of Level 7 Wizards proficient in alchemy.

Their eyes had now completely turned into the pale gold unique to the transmutation array, and deep in their pupils, the material structure map of the entire plane was rapidly flowing, analyzing, and marking.

"Target: Coalition camp." The leading Level 7 Alchemist spoke, his voice calm, "Transmutation array—

unfold."

The pale golden light surged toward the coalition camp.

And so, the earth came alive.

On the periphery of the coalition camp, those solid rock barriers suddenly began to twist.

The hard rock was like kneaded clay, denting and squeezing inward.

The land inside the camp collapsed without warning, revealing huge pits that were bottomless.

The cannon fodder units that couldn't react in time screamed as they fell, and were then completely swallowed by the rock layers that suddenly closed at the bottom of the pits.

Even in the sky, countless huge spikes made of dust and rock began to condense, like inverted stalactites, pointing densely at the coalition camp, and the next second they poured down like a rainstorm!

What's more, five thick stone pillars gradually stretched out from the land around the coalition.

And when the stone pillars gradually rose, the Wizards in the coalition camp realized in horror that those were not stone pillars at all, but giant hands made of rock!

These genuine giant hands suddenly closed, gripping fiercely on the coalition camp's defensive barrier, trying to crush it!

The entire earth was at war with the coalition.

The first to react on the coalition side was the Tower of Silence.

Facing this sudden offensive, the high-level officials of the Tower of Silence did not panic at all.

And their response could be described as simple and crude.

That magnetic field confinement layer, which had been floating behind the Tower of Silence camp and reinforced day and night by countless high-tier Wizards, suddenly dissipated.

It was those Level 7 Wizards who were originally responsible for maintaining the magnetic field who stood up together and removed the energy supply to the confinement layer.

At the same time, they formed seals with their hands and pushed fiercely toward that white ball of light with a diameter of a thousand meters—

"Go."

The huge white ball of light, like a released prisoner, slowly floated up from its original fixed position.

Then, it became faster and faster.

It streaked across the sky, dragging a glaring white light trail, like a second falling sun, smashing straight toward the direction of the Nuolun Workshop camp!

Carrying the two trillion tons of antimatter inside.

Dionysius stood at the highest point of the command room, looking at the white ball of light that was getting closer and closer, the expression on his face did not change at all.

"Execute the contingency plan." His voice remained calm, "Phase one."

Within the Alchemist Legion, thousands of Level 6 Wizards who had been on standby exerted their strength at the same time.

Under the manipulation of alchemical power, invisible power spread out, sweeping across the entire battlefield.

And so, the air was evacuated.

In the entire area from the Nuolun Workshop camp to that white ball of light, all gas molecules, all floating dust, all tiny matter invisible to the naked eye were pushed to both sides by a force that was extremely barbaric in an instant.

Forming an absolutely vacuum channel with a width of over ten kilometers.

Without air, there is no contact.

Without contact, there is no annihilation.

At the same time, other alchemists, led by Level 7 Wizards, slowed down their offensive against the enemy camp.

Instead, they gathered the power of the super-wide-area transmutation array, like invisible tentacles, fiercely piercing into the interior of the magnetic field confinement layer of that white ball of light!

The core ability of alchemy—material remodeling.

As long as those antimatter can be converted into ordinary matter before they come into contact with any normal matter, this crisis can be eliminated into nothingness.

"Analyzing antimatter structure—"

"Transmutation array infiltrating—"

"Target magnetic field confinement layer interference is severe, infiltration progress—three percent, seven percent, ten percent"

However, just as the power of the transmutation array was about to touch the antimatter body—

Deep in the Tower of Silence camp, the corners of the mouths of those few Level 7 Wizards responsible for controlling it curled into a sneer at the same time.

"Thought we weren't guarding against this?"

The backup plan they left inside the confinement layer was activated.

At the last moment when the confinement layer dissipated, a rock with a diameter of over a hundred meters was directly projected into the very center of the antimatter light ball by a teleportation spell hidden within the magnetic field!

Inside the light ball, the balance between antimatter and normal matter, which had been isolated by the magnetic field, was completely broken by this rock that suddenly broke in.

Contact.

Then—

Annihilation.

Boom!!!!

That instant, the world lost its voice.

The sound was too grand, too shocking, already exceeding the limit that the human ear could receive, turning into a shockwave capable of directly shaking the earth.

A pure white pillar of light with a diameter of over a hundred kilometers shot up from the location of the antimatter light ball, pierced through the atmosphere, and stabbed straight into the void outside the plane!

The shockwave brought by the pillar of light even blew away the gray clouds that had been lingering in the entire sky.

From the Nuolun Workshop to the coalition camp, from this end of the horizon to that end, everything turned into glaring white in an instant!

Immediately following was the real crisis.

The intrusion of that rock did not cause all the antimatter to annihilate at once. It only detonated the small part that came into contact with it.

And the terrifying energy released by that small part of annihilation instantly tore apart the magnetic field layer that had lost stable confinement, blowing more antimatter fragments away, like blooming flowers of death.

Those fragments, each one was antimatter of varying sizes.

They were blown away, and then—

Came into contact with the air.

Came into contact with dust.

Came into contact with light.

Came into contact with everything.

Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!!!

Explosions too dense to count bloomed crazily over the entire battlefield!

The annihilation of every antimatter fragment was a small solar eruption.

And those antimatter fragments that were in clusters would be blown away again the moment they exploded, causing the scope of influence to expand again!

Their brightness, their temperature, the destructive energy they released, intertwined and superimposed, and then resonated.

Finally, they converged into a doomsday frenzy that covered the sky of nearly half the plane, as if it were going to burn everything!

Huge mushroom clouds rose one after another in the void, and were quickly torn apart by the shockwave of the next round of explosions.

Fire and light became "omnipresent."

The sky was burning, the earth was melting, and even space itself began to show fine cracks like spider webs under that continuous high-intensity energy impact!

"Defense!"

Inside the Nuolun Workshop camp, Dionysius's voice carried a hint of urgency for the first time.

The super-wide-area transmutation array was running at full power!

On the earth, endless rock and soil were grabbed and condensed by invisible power.

Above the camp, all around, and even underground, solid shields that were thick to the point of being unbelievable were constructed layer upon layer!

One layer of rock shell was evaporated by the shockwave of annihilation, and the next layer was rapidly generated under the action of the transmutation array!

A gap was blown open in the defense in one direction, and more matter immediately surged from the ground to block that gap tightly!

At the same time, another part of the transmutation array's power began to crazily "transfer" the explosions.

That destructive energy that was about to affect the core area of the camp was forcibly "guided" to the other end of the plane, to those desolate areas where no one was stationed.

And so, the distant earth was collapsing, the distant mountains were melting, and everything in the distance was being wantonly ravaged by the explosion energy that was continuously transmitted.
