Chapter 664: Chapter 550: Lynn’s Deification Ceremony!_2

Hearing this, Lynn had no choice but to give up, and then he discussed the matters related to the promotion period with the others.

Although it was not the best time now, according to Lynn’s prediction, the master of necromancy would probably not join the early battles.

After all, a god leaving the realm of gods meant facing dangers and the possibility of falling, so it was unlikely that the opponent would rashly plunge into this world and engage in a divine battle.

Moreover, with the difference in the flow of time between the two worlds, this would provide ample time for his promotion!

Aurora even suggested that Lynn should retreat to the capital first, to avoid being affected by the war during the promotion, which could influence the success or failure of his ascension.

“No, let’s do it in the Northern City of Lordeser,” Lynn shook his head.

The Northern City was located less than fifty kilometers behind this valley and was one of the most strictly guarded areas. Nearly seventy percent of the council’s forces were in this region. If even this place fell, it would mean that the situation had become irretrievable.

After making the decision, Lynn discussed with the others for a long time, and the time for the promotion was set for three days later!

The days passed in the blink of an eye, and just as Lynn had expected, there was still no movement at the Space-Time Gate.

To protect his promotion ceremony in Lordeser, Harrov had dispatched Rafael, who had rested for a period of time, and others to come over.

This was a relatively easy task, after all, the valley had already been turned into an inescapable net, and it was improbable that the enemy would bypass it. However, several reliable people were still needed for protection, to avoid being disturbed.

Harrov and the others were either needed to keep an eye on the space-time nodes or had other tasks at hand, and could not spare the time.

“Councilman Lynn, Lord Vittorio has sent a message saying that he has placed the metal sphere you gave him, shall we start the promotion ceremony now?” Rafael asked, both solemnly and expectantly.

“The sooner the better, let’s begin!” Lynn nodded, stood at the center of the array, and began to connect with the magic power stations scattered across the continent, using the real-time effects of soul entanglement.

The Soul Division Technique was a very strange magic, when a caster used this technique to separate a part of their soul, it did not mean they lost that portion of the soul, nor could it be replenished or healed by magic potions or other means.

Because the main soul and the divided soul still had a subtle connection, constantly in a strange state of being dispersed yet united.

If the incarnation containing magic power were destroyed, in the absence of interference or soul-damaging attacks, that part of the soul would return to the original body.

This connection seemed somewhat similar to the quantum entanglement effect.

Lynn couldn’t help speculating that the soul, or rather consciousness, must also possess some high-dimensional attributes. The Soul Division Technique merely separated the soul on a three-dimensional level, but their connection remained tight on a higher-dimensional level.

No wonder Era, despite having limited understanding of the microstate of elements, could reach into the high-dimensional domain; it was very likely that she started from the soul!

Lynn suddenly understood, but now was clearly not the time to think about these things. After clearing these disordered thoughts, he directly expanded his domain.

The vast amount of magic power quickly surged around, taking each of the magic power stations as the center.

Since Lynn had given prior notice, the wizards who sensed this change did not panic, nor did it cause any disturbance.

However, as the domain expanded rapidly, the consumption of magic power also increased exponentially.

Lynn did some quick calculations and realized that even with hundreds of magic power stations as reserves, expanding his domain to encompass the entire planet, or even penetrating deep underground, was almost impossible.

Therefore, he could only assimilate this continent first!

Thinking this, Lynn knew that assimilating all the elements within a continent would likely take at least a week.

Even so, it was only the first step in the promotion!

…

Just as Lynn was conducting the godhood ceremony, the space-time node nestled in the valley was suddenly reactivated!

The nine Wizards guarding the Space-Time Gate immediately sent out the news via electromagnetic waves and attempted to close the reactivated gate once more.

Locks inscribed with runes that bound the space-time vortex were stretched taut. Despite the combined efforts of the nine powerful Wizards, they burst open after barely holding for tens of minutes.

“Retreat, there’s no need to seal it anymore!” Vittorio said gravely.

Although he knew it was unlikely they could prevent the invasion of the undead, he didn’t expect the collapse to come so swiftly.

Realizing the incoming enemies might far exceed their expectations, Vittorio led the nine Wizards to retreat outside the valley. The forthcoming artillery fire would not discern friend from foe.

The army, having received the electromagnetic transmission, had also rapidly assembled. By the time Vittorio drew back, the First Army Group was already in formation.

Besides the hundreds of thousands of soldiers who had been trained for over a year and were skilled in firearms, the ranks also included over a hundred of the greatest Wizards and more than fifteen thousand official Wizards!

Thousands of artillery pieces were also revolving their barrels towards the Space-Time Gate in the valley, while airships and fighter planes were also ready and awaiting the enemy’s approach.

Looking at this vast armament, Vittorio couldn’t help but feel a twinge of emotion. If the Magic Kingdom had had such military force during the assault on the Empire, the Church might not have had the chance to resist.

But the enemy they had to face this time was clearly more formidable.

Under the intense and vigilant watch of the Wizards, the diameter of the space-time vortex quickly grew beyond five hundred meters and continued to expand at a rapid pace.

An enormous amount of Magic Power was furiously pouring into this world, causing Harrov, Vittorio, and others to frown deeply.

“What exactly are they trying to do with the Space-Time Gate, swallow the entire world?” Alade looked at the vortex, which had nearly reached a kilometer in diameter, his face filled with worry.

He was concerned that at this rate, the whole world would be engulfed.

“It shouldn’t come to that…” Harrov said, frowning. The larger the area of the Space-Time Gate, the more Magic Power it would consume. To encompass the entire world, just how much Magic Power would be needed?

However, recalling the words of the so-called Star Messenger, that the master world had the capacity to capture an entire plane, Harrov was somewhat uncertain again.

Fortunately, the diameter of the Space-Time Gate stopped growing after exceeding two kilometers. Soon after, an oppressive aura began to spread throughout the valley, making everyone feel stifled.

“They’re here!” Vittorio suddenly spoke up as ripples appeared within the churning space-time vortex.

A boundless horde of wraiths, Screaming Demons, and all manner of undead flying monsters emerged from the other side of the Space-Time Gate, nearly obscuring the entire sky.

And on the ground, an innumerable army of Corpse Ghosts, patchwork beasts, and skeletal warriors set foot on this new land. Accompanying them as vanguards from within the Space-Time Gate, a group of Death Knights clad in armor also appeared.

Their eyes flickered with crimson light, their bodies shrouded in heavy armor, and the skeletal steeds they rode neighed and roared. Their hooves, alight with flames, stamped across the ground, instantly withering the once vibrant magic plants and rapidly spreading death.

“This number…” Sanchez at the front lines swallowed hard at the sight of the seemingly endless tide of undead emerging from the Space-Time Gate. Still, he raised his voice using Sound Amplification Magic to shout.

“Attack!”

More than two thousand cannoneers had already loaded their artillery, and with a tremendous roar, the cannon fire plummeted from the sky like rain…

Thousands of airships and an assortment of fighter planes likewise took to the air to meet the overwhelming mass of Screaming Demons and wraiths…
