I Made Scientific Magic

Chapter 44 Cardinal Adwell (for further reading)

"Hell... This is hell!" "Great Lord, please save your believers..."

After the doomsday-like scene, the entire Haigang Town was in chaos, and the militia guards organized temporarily were unable to maintain order at all. In the streets and alleys, figures running in a hurry could be seen everywhere.

The raging fire that ignited from the pier continued to expand along the direction of the wind, seeming to include the entire harbor town.

"Move away the things that ignited the fire and create an area that is sufficiently open. Where is the firefighting team? Let me act!" the temporary guard captain Tiris shouted hoarsely, wanting to use the previous Lord 'Adrian' The taught method of isolation stopped the spreading fire.

It's a pity that the morale of the entire guard team has almost collapsed. Many people threw away their weapons and fled towards the outside of Haigang Town like crazy, ignoring his orders at all.

Seeing the raging flames getting closer, Tiris was in despair.

At this moment, a voice as loud as thunder resounded in my ears.

"Praise [Ella] - the kingdom of heaven is coming!"

At this moment, the extremely chaotic Haigang Town seemed to have stopped in time. All the people who were fleeing in a panic stopped, stopped in unison, and looked up at the night sky.

The dust cloud that originally shrouded the city was torn to pieces under the action of some powerful force, and then, dazzling white light fell from the sky and sprinkled every corner of Harbor Town.

Under the sweeping white light, everyone felt that their tired bodies were reinvigorated, and the despair and fear in their hearts were quickly fading away.

A man whose leg was broken by falling rocks during the disaster was surprised to find that his broken leg had recovered, and his face suddenly showed extremely fanatical piety.

Covering half of the city, the raging fire known as the flames of hell and the incarnation of the devil, was also quickly extinguished under such power, and disappeared without a trace.

Afterwards, the pure and flawless white light gradually converged and turned into a phantom of a holy and noble goddess. She looked down at all living beings, with stars shining in her eyes, full of mystery and majesty.

"Lord, you have not abandoned your most devout believer after all!"

"The devil... the devil is dead... the great Lord of the Stars [Ella], thank you for your salvation..."

"Lord, I will repent of my sins..."

Tens of thousands of townspeople in Haigang Town knelt on the ground, praying unceasingly, expressing their gratitude to the Lord's grace, and many of them passionately kissed the land to show their piety.

Among all the people present, the only one who could maintain some sanity was Tiris.

After being illuminated by the white light, fanatical piety rose in his heart, but he didn't kneel down on the spot, as if some kind of magical power stopped his actions.

At some point, a middle-aged man in a red-gold robe and an iron mask appeared beside him.

"Lord Cardinal!" Tiris immediately recognized the identity of the comer from the other party's clothing, and saluted very respectfully.

"Where's Anrioke? Why did Seaport Town become like this?" Adwell asked directly, looking around at the townspeople who were kneeling on the ground and praying devoutly. "If I'm not mistaken, the witch hunt ceremony should start at noon tomorrow."

As early as two days ago, the holy city had received a request for help from Anrioke. The archbishop of Nordland led an elite guard that was nearly wiped out in the process of rounding up several wizards. The drop technique also failed to keep the opponent.

According to the procedure of the trial court, no matter how tricky an official wizard is, it is not worth letting him take action personally, but An Ruike specifically mentioned in the letter that the other party looks very young, and he will probably become a threat to the Holy See in the future.

What's even more frightening is that this wizard can use a very peculiar kind of hellfire. If it spreads, it may burn down a town in a short time, but Anrioke has no way to deal with it.

It was with this in mind that he decided to go to Haigang Town in person in order to be safe. After he noticed the fluctuations caused by the burst of divine power on the way, he even left the accompanying priest and rushed over alone as fast as possible. .

It's a pity that it's still a step late.

"The thing is like this, my lord cardinal, just earlier tonight, two followers of the devil broke into Harbor Town and set the granary on fire..." Tiris narrated the whole story as concisely as possible over again.

When he heard that the one who destroyed the harbor wharf was the wizard that Anrioke was chasing, Adwell's expression suddenly became serious.

A great wizard actually hides his power, pretending to lurk in the territory of Nordland, and without thinking, he knows that the other party must be planning some kind of conspiracy to overthrow the empire and the Holy See.

Thinking of this, Adwell saw the sailing battleship sailing into the mist through the sight of the projection of God, across the ruins of the harbor pier and the vast sea.

After roughly calculating the distance, Adwell quickly gave up the idea of ​​doing it, even if he used the strongest magic he had mastered, it was not enough to pose a threat to a great wizard at such a long distance.

"You did a good job this time, at least you didn't cause the empire to suffer greater losses."

From Adwell's point of view, it is already a matter of great honor to uncover a deeply hidden great wizard at the cost of only half of the harbor town.

Before, he thought that An Ruoke was a waste, and he was so embarrassed by an official wizard. He was planning to remove the identity of the archbishop of the opponent after this incident, but now it seems that it is a crime of non-war. An Ruoke's defeat It is entirely because the enemy is too powerful.

Moreover, the casualties in Seaport Town were far lower than he expected. Adwell originally thought that in such a big disaster, at least half of the tens of thousands of townspeople would be killed or injured, but judging from the number of souls taken into the Holy Land, only There were less than 5,000 people, including 3,000 black armored guards.

This is nothing short of a miracle...

"This is all Lord Yadean's order." Tiris didn't mean to take credit at all, and his face was full of resentment. "However, Lord Yade'an has followed Bishop Anrioke into the port, and now I'm afraid it's already..."

"It's a pity!" Adwell said regretfully, he was able to quell the chaos in Harbor Town in a short period of time, and organize the militia guards to quickly evacuate the townspeople. This is definitely a rare commanding talent.

"Has Anrioke collected any information about that great wizard in so many days?" Adwell asked again.

Tillis hesitated for a moment. These things were not something he, the captain of the guard, could touch. Fortunately, Merk, the lord of Harbor Town, had already rushed over. learned the information that Anrioke had given him before.

However, after Adwell took the parchment scroll and flipped through it for a few times, his expression quickly froze.

Karl... the illegitimate son of Viscount Stirland, a nobleman of the empire, who is only seventeen years old this year, disappeared half a year ago, and the wizard Kolu who was captured by them had arrived in the Territory of Stirland at the same time.

It is speculated that this wizard named Karl may be one of Krull's apprentices.

"Which idiot collected all this information?" Adwell scolded extremely dissatisfied.

This is complete nonsense, a formal wizard who has just received a new apprentice for less than half a year, can use magic that destroys half of the harbor town?

The intelligence personnel in the Nordland Territory may have gone crazy...

The lord of Haigang Town was too trembling to answer.

Adwell ignored Merck again, but took out the golden tome that was not on his waist and turned to the latest page, using his finger as a pen to engrave the new information on it.
