Chapter 364: The Arrival of the True God!
A bronze gate materialized out of thin air within a courtyard engulfed by an eternal blaze, as if it had existed since ancient times. The immense presence sent shivers through Raphael and the others dozens of meters away.
The flames burning all around surged greedily, attempting to devour the gates to the heavenly realm. However, they seemed affected by an unknown force, distorting noticeably as they neared the entrance.
Lynn, struggling to control the surging sea of flames, quickly realized that it wasn't the fire but the entire space that was twisting!
The colossal gate stood like a star, altering the fabric of space and time around it. Accompanied by bell-like sounds, the bronze gate cracked open slightly, an overwhelming pressure solidifying in the void, and ethereal hymns resonating in everyone's ears.
Lynn's expression grew grave. Just a gateway to the heavens exhibited the power to distort space-time and resist fourth-level laser spells. He couldn't fathom the might of a true god's arrival.
Yet, his most powerful magics, laser and eternal flames, couldn't dismantle this gateway.
It was time for a desperate gamble!
Understanding that leverage was their only hope, Lynn saw potential in the undying flames that had absorbed substantial energy from the divine realm's projections. These flames, now part of the inferno scattered across the courtyard, formed a terrifying yet uncontrolled electric field...
Harnessing such chaotic yet potent power was no easy feat, but with the computational support of dozens of wizards, the impossible became possible!
Lynn raised a hand, summoning a solid iron sphere in the void, followed by flickering electric arcs enveloping him.Though the electromagnetic railgun had the drawback of a lengthy charging time, its sheer destructive force surpassed even that of the laser beam!
Yet, it needed to reach forty times the speed of sound to rupture the spacetime whirlpool around the gates of heaven!
Lynn staked everything on this single strike!
His magical reserves depleted from the battle, Lynn relied solely on the magic stored within the magical network!
As the plundered electrons swiftly congregated, the railgun's charging speed couldn't match the gate's opening pace.
Edweil sensed the dreadful magical fluctuations within the sea of fire but, hindered by the inferno, couldn't intervene. All his power was invested in supporting the heavenly gate's descent.
As long as the two realms opened a channel sufficient for the true god's arrival, all resistance from the enemy would be futile...
Suddenly, Edweil's face paled, his head snapping in a different direction.
He sensed someone severing the field formed by the divine realm's projections from the outside!
Unlike Lynn's laser, which cut in a physically tangible manner, this was spatial destruction!
The entire space trembled violently as dark lines swiftly spread within the flaming divine realm, disintegrating everything in their path. It was the deepest darkness formed from light unable to reflect due to being trapped in a spatial vortex...
This was the legendary Force Field magic - the "Blade of Spacetime"!
The newcomer was the legendary councilor, Harof!
In an instant, the invisible spatial blade struck the gates of heaven, causing the realm projected by the gods to collapse!
The once solid gate had faded slightly, yet it was already halfway open!
"Go back!" A heavy voice echoed in the courtyard. Complex runes manifested in the void, entwining around the bronze gate like chains, attempting to forcibly seal the opening. But in the next moment, Victorio, the "Magical Artificer," went from a calm demeanor to urgency, shouting, "I'm almost losing control, Harof! Hurry, destroy it!"
The energy contained within the gates of heaven far exceeded their expectations. Clearly, the gods had noticed this connection between the realms and were channeling their power through it.
Harof dared not delay, exerting all his might to utterly shred this so-called gate of heaven.
The intertwining forces caused severe spatial turmoil, intensifying the raging sea of fire around them.
Meanwhile, Lynn's spell had reached completion.
The Super Electromagnetic Railgun!
The iron sphere, confined by magnetic forces, suddenly accelerated. Enveloped in thunderous light, it transformed into a streak of crimson, hurtling forth. At forty times the speed of sound, amidst the anticipation, shock, and tension of onlookers, the scarlet sphere viciously collided with the bronze gates.
BOOM!
An intense explosion erupted on the gates, cracking the surface and causing the ground to fissure. The shockwave pushed the fiery sea back several meters. A scorching wave surged through the air, searing everyone's skin as if in the midst of flames.
All eyes fixed on the gates of heaven. A long crack appeared on the gate's surface, covering a third of the door - the exact spot hit by the electromagnetic cannon!
But the damage was limited. The bronze gate remained standing, the alchemic runes binding its surface had disintegrated, and a pale hand emerged from within.
Chills ran down everyone's spine, including Harof and Victorio. Despite their presence as legendary figures, facing this goddess directly, they couldn't summon even an ounce of confidence.
"Lord, your most devout followers beseech your judgment!" Pulson exclaimed fervently.
Edweil, standing nearby, wore a smile. However, his expression froze as a flaming atomic 'sword' pierced through their bodies from behind.
Having expended most of his power maintaining the gates of heaven's descent, the divine spells protecting Edweil weakened, barely resisting the onslaught of the eternal flames.
Lynn, using the last vestiges of his strength, manipulated the flames near Edweil, launching a lethal assault!
As long as the caster was killed, the power fueling the spells would dissipate.
The realm constructed by the divine projections had already shattered in the preceding battle, meaning the opponent could no longer use 'divine words' to avert death...
The flames rapidly engulfed Edweil, devouring every iota of strength within him within a mere second...
