Chapter 609

"At any time... General." The white-robed, golden-haired young man had a gentle face, his eyes slightly lowered, the corners of his mouth slightly raised in a smile that wasn't quite a smile. His voice was so gentle and magnetic, full of charm; this voice seemed to be able to cleanse a person's soul.

Hearing this voice, the main general couldn't help but shudder, and then his whole body relaxed quickly, except for the anger in his eyes, which didn't decrease in the slightest but instead intensified.

"Then... please, Holy Son, open the holy war!"

"Hmm." The white-robed, golden-haired young man nodded, stood up, and walked outside.

Before long, the Holy Son came to the Class Mage regiment with gentleness. The Class Mage regiment consisted of the kingdom's most elite mages and were also devout believers of the Holy King.

"Everyone, let us open the Holy Gate!"

The Holy Son's voice seemed to have magic, making the members of the Class Mage regiment who heard it shudder, and then they relaxed completely. But what remained unchanged in their eyes was the anger at the enemy for humiliating the Holy King.

"Everyone, let us respond to the Holy Son's magic power! Open the Holy Gate! Summon the Holy Fire! Let the Holy Fire announce the beginning of the holy war!"

"This is our glory!!!"

The Class Mage regiment commander shouted passionately, immediately winning the response of all the mages.

Glory! Glory! Glory!

Holy war! Holy war! Holy war!

After stopping the sound with a specific gesture, the Class Mage regiment commander came to the Holy Son again, knelt down respectfully, and requested with etiquette.

"Now... please, Holy Son, lead us to open the holy war!"

"Hmm... begin."

In the distance, on the city wall of Colin Fortress, Yan Liu took out his binoculars to observe, but he didn't seem to see anything. He vaguely saw some mages chanting magic, which seemed to be a tradition of the Holy Kingdom—to use magic to give soldiers magical blessings, so that the soldiers could exert greater combat strength.

As for whether it would be some kind of joint magic, the kind with huge power, Yan Liu didn't think about it at all, because from ancient times to the present, no joint magic had ever appeared. Joint magic first required the minds to be connected. Unless they used special ancient secret treasures to control a group of people to cast magic together, only then would joint magic be possible with the same spell. Of course, this was just a possibility.

A few people practicing together might be possible, but a 10,000-person magic chant?

Ah, they might be able to achieve joint magic with great power, but it was simply impossible!

If there were people, there would be distracting thoughts.

This world was also full of suspicion and betrayal. True trust certainly existed, but it was very rare.

"The time is almost up."

The Holy Son felt the massive magic power accumulating in his body. A gentle smile appeared on his face, and he quickly took out the Void Staff from his spatial ring, preparing to use this ancient secret treasure to cast ultra-long-distance spatial magic.

Casting ultra-long-distance spatial magic required massive magic power.

The source of the massive magic power was this entire Class Mage regiment. Although they couldn't achieve mind-to-mind connection, they could stand in a special triangular formation, transmitting their own magic power to the person in front, and then the person in front would continue to transmit it to the person in front of them, finally passing it layer by layer. All this magic power gathered in one person's body—the Holy Son!

With the Void Staff floating and rotating in front of him, the Holy Son spread his arms wide, as if embracing the void, continuously inputting the massive magic power in his body into the Void Staff.

"Open! Holy war! Let the great Holy Fire descend upon those heretics and punish them with righteousness!"

... (Requesting flowers) ...

Massive magic power shot into the sky through the Void Staff as a white light!

When the white light reached a certain level, the accumulated power suddenly exploded. The entire space rippled like the surface of a lake, and soon, the space became as smooth as a mirror, from which one could gradually see a clear scene on the other side.

On the city wall of Colin Fortress.

"This is..."

Yan Liu and the other Evernight Legion soldiers were dumbfounded. It was the first time they had seen a mirror magic that required a Class Mage regiment to release. Were these mages just eating for free? The answer was naturally negative.

... 0 ...

As the spatial mirror became clearer, Yan Liu also vaguely saw what was being displayed in the mirror. It seemed to be a kingdom, and the flag flying was the Holy Kingdom.

"Not good!"

Suddenly, a sense of danger warning quickly surfaced in his heart, and at this moment, the mirror became completely clear.

"Scatter, take cover, quick, take cover!"

"The enemy's artillery fire is coming!"

Yan Liu had once been fortunate enough to go with Lord Xuan Lord Xuan Wuji to see a demonstration of the power of magic crystal cannons. He remembered that scene very, very clearly. A magic crystal cannon that had accumulated energy could pierce a small mountain with one shot, which could be called the full-strength blow of an eighth-rank peak expert. And a penetrating magic-guided strike often meant even greater power!

At this moment, he suddenly understood that the one who hadn't woken up was actually him.

Yan Liu's shouting made the surrounding soldiers even more confused. Artillery fire? Where? It wouldn't be in that mirror, would it?

"Everyone take cover, it's a magic crystal cannon!?"

"What!"

It was actually the Empire's most terrifying weapon, the magic crystal cannon. Terror arose directly in everyone's hearts.

On the other side, the Holy Kingdom located in the center of the Western Regions.

Above the main gate of the Royal Capital, a spatial mirror displaying the Colin Fortress was incredibly clear. On the city wall, dozens of magic crystal giant cannons gathered a large amount of magic power. The technicians around the red-hot cannon barrels felt fear, fearing that in the next second, these magic crystal giant cannons would explode.

But they had no choice but to stand here forcibly, feeling the scorching high temperature constantly coming from the cannon barrels.

"Fire!!!"

With the commander’s order, all the technicians controlling the magic crystal giant cannons prayed and pulled the trigger. In an instant, only a thunderous roar from the magic crystal giant cannons was heard, and the violent air wave directly blew the surrounding technicians several meters away. One by one, pure magic cannonballs rose into the sky and then drilled into the spatial mirror.

However, there were also one or two cases where the magic crystal giant cannons failed to fire cannonballs and exploded on the spot. The two or three technicians on the side were vaporized on the spot.

Above the Colin Fortress, magic cannonballs fell like rain around the fortress. As soon as they hit the ground, the magic cannonballs revealed their ferocity. The violent explosion directly vaporized everything within three meters, and the remaining power blew things away.

Fortunately, the Colin Fortress was originally piled up with very solid giant stones, and it was also poured with subsequent inscriptions and special materials. Even the terrible power of the magic cannonballs only caused large pits to appear on its body, and the surrounding giant stones were full of cracks.

But this was only the power of one magic cannonball. There were as many as dozens of them falling in the sky, causing explosions on the ground in front of and behind the Colin Fortress, and falling into the pile of Eternal Night soldiers, instantly leaving no bones behind.

Boom! Boom! Boom! The magic cannonballs were still ravaging and destroying.

"Ah ah ah... my leg! Save me!"

"Ah, is this Dazhuang’s head?"

"Don't... don't!"

"My God!"

At this moment, all the soldiers of the Eternal Night Legion seemed to be experiencing the most terrible purgatory in the world, watching their companions on the opposite side being vaporized by a white light cannonball, leaving no bones behind. Even the lucky soldiers had their entire upper or lower bodies vaporized. By the time their consciousness reacted, the remaining power of the explosion had already blown them away, and they couldn't even shed blood.

Only the incomplete body remained, falling powerlessly to the side, waiting for death to come slowly with dull eyes.

Screaming, fear, terror, helplessness, and other negative emotions spread among the remaining soldiers. Each of them was full of fear, having never experienced such a terrible thing.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The sound of the explosion almost covered the screams. Under the magic cannonballs of such power, the pavilions on the city wall had already collapsed, and even the city wall of the Colin Fortress was close to being shattered, especially the part near the city gate, which was taken care of by the magic cannonballs most frequently, livingly hitting a huge gap. The high-temperature wall body with white smoke around it and the broken stones on the ground all proved the power of the magic cannonballs.

When the last magic cannonball fell, the spatial mirror in the sky disappeared, and the Holy Kingdom army blew the horn of attack.

Behind the broken walls of the fortress, Eternal Night soldiers walked out in horror one after another. They couldn't believe what had just happened. Their companions had disappeared without a trace before their eyes, but the enemy in front of them had indeed broken through their fortress and torn through their psychological defense.

All this has become an indisputable fact.

Facing such terrifying shelling methods, they looked down at the weapons in their hands, did they lose the courage to raise their weapons and fight?

"Kill!"

A soldier who had just experienced the death of a loved one, with pain and hatred filling his heart, raised the slashing knife in his hand and rushed out, but after running a few steps, he found that his companions behind him didn't follow?

Why?

"What are you stunned for? The enemy is already up, do you want to be killed voluntarily!"

A question full of hateful anger woke up several people.

Right, they survived. Do they want to stand here and wait for the enemy to come up and kill them?

But after experiencing the scene just now, only terror remained in their hearts. If the other party did this again, they couldn't guarantee whether they could survive.

"My brother is dead. He died in front of me. He pushed me out of the explosion range. I watched him being blown up by the cannonball, and only a pair of hands were left..." The soldier said painfully, gritting his teeth, his eyes trying to hold back the tears, his fists clenched in unwillingness and pain, his nails deeply embedded in his skin, but this was not as painful as the pain in his heart.

"I want to avenge him! I want to avenge the dead comrades, they are all my brothers."

"If you are stunned here waiting for death, you are no longer my brothers, I don't have such cowardly brothers!"

Not many people woke up from the horror scene. They also felt like a lifetime away. A second ago, they were bragging and farting together, but now they were separated by life and death. If they gave up themselves, then who would avenge their comrades?
