I Created Scientific Magic-Chapter 295 - 282: Occupation of the Royal Capital

Chapter 295: Chapter 282: Occupation of the Royal Capital

In just over ten minutes, North, the fastest in action, had led his men into the main house, where they were greeted by a series of magical attacks.

The brilliance of magic and Divine Arts intertwined within the main house, blazing fireballs, sturdy ice, rising earth walls… Fula, who had been hiding and engaging in guerrilla warfare, changed her previous tactics and began to confront them head-on.

Only then did North and his men discover that these wizards were all wearing a strange ‘armor’. The clothing was thick and wide, wrapped with sturdy iron wire, and they even wore small iron cages on their heads, which looked very ridiculous.

What kind of bizarre witchcraft was this?

Fula and the others’ peculiar fashion choices for a time made the Priests hesitant to approach, leaving them no choice but to hide behind and endow the kingdom’s royal guards with various Divine Arts to test the depth of these wizards.

Over a hundred enhanced royal guards charged into the main house again, and a chorus of shouting came from inside.

...

[Chain Lightning]

The blue-purple lightning constantly flashed in the dim night, its speed at the extreme. Before the shouts of Fula and the others could rise, it had already struck these guards.

The iron armor was an excellent conductor of electricity… The [Chain Lightning] unleashed by more than a dozen wizards soon gave these royal guards a taste of electrotherapy. Then came the intensely hot [Flame Torrent], sending these convulsing, immobile guards to hell.

“Speaking of which, why do we have to wear such ugly things?” Having dealt with the guards who came to meet their end, Fula awkwardly tugged at the cage-like headgear and spoke with a slight complaint.

Moreover, their power was clearly not weaker than that of the Priests, yet their teacher did not allow them to face them head-on. Instead, they were instructed to act as though they were being overpowered and to simply hold their ground here.

“If the Headmaster told us to wear it, then there must be a profound reason,” Johnny said with conviction. “And don’t be too careless, Fula, these people are not easy to deal with.”

Even with Divine Arts’ blessing, an ordinary guard, if directly hit by a powerful spell like the Fireball Technique, may not necessarily be fatal. To ensure the killing of these royal guards, one had to use more powerful second or third level magic.

Johnny knew that the Priests intended to use this method to deplete their magic power.

Outside at that moment, North was burning with impatience. Having organized several attacks that were effortlessly repelled, it was clear he had not misjudged; most of the wizards must be hiding in the main house, and plentiful in number, just relying on them was not enough to take down this ‘fortress’.

After suffering many casualties, North had no choice but to look towards the Cardinal Archbishop Anluoke for help.

Anluoke, who had been observing from the side, finally raised his hand, and a glimmer of light flashed at his fingertips before it gradually expanded into a vast beam of light, shooting toward the main house.

This was the fourth-level Divine Arts—Heavenly Judgment!

Fula, Johnny, and others inside the house immediately felt an ominous premonition, and then saw a massive beam of light rushing toward them.

The white light seemed capable of dissolving everything in its path, the doors and furniture beginning to disintegrate under an inexplicable force…

However, what was an inevitable strike was blocked.

The person who made the move was Anthony!

“Teacher!” Fula exclaimed with surprise, her face full of excitement and elation.

Anthony did not pay attention to Fula, his gaze fixated on Anluoke from the beginning to the end. He was well aware of this church adversary, but it was the first time they truly confronted each other.

“Where is Hattar?” Anluoke suddenly asked.

“Prince His Highness is, of course, attending to more important matters!” Anthony responded offhandedly.

Such a reply vaguely unsettled Anluoke, and moreover, the intelligence had mentioned another called Lynn, suspected to be a great wizard, who had not come forth to face him.

Was it out of arrogance, thinking one person was enough to deal with him, or was it because the other party was not within this mansion…

Complicated thoughts flashed through Anluoke’s mind, but he had no time to ponder, as the flickering of lightning had already emerged around Anthony, and the terrifying electric arcs were coming at him with full force…

…

Meanwhile, outside the city, Lydia and others, having received the signal, took to the skies in a dozen stealth airships, sprinkling the catalyst composed of substances like salt powder and silver iodide into the sky.

“Is this contraption really useful?” Darren muttered.

“It should be useful, right?” Lydia had some confidence, after all, the headmaster had achieved many incredible feats in the past, even though she couldn’t understand how scattering some powder into the sky could cause it to rain…

But no matter what, their mission was already complete. Lydia maneuvered the airship to return, when a clap of thunder suddenly echoed in everyone’s ears.

Darren immediately ran to the edge of the cockpit, stood on a stool and looked down, to notice that the sky had become densely covered with dark clouds, with lightning flashing.

“It’s rain, it’s really raining!” Darren exclaimed in surprise. The others in Lydia’s airship stopped piloting and hurriedly crowded around.

Elsewhere, Ryder, who was waiting, looked at the sky in astonishment. Strong gusts of wind were blowing past and droplets of rain were steadily falling from the sky, landing on their clothes and hair.

It was really raining. Ryder was both astonished and overjoyed; he quickly called for everyone to proceed with the plan.

Unbeknownst to Anluoke and others, their intelligence was different. While their ‘main force’ was still in the southern part of the kingdom, ostensibly making their way to the capital by foot, it was all just a ruse.

Their true elite had already arrived stealthily at the capital aboard airships in several groups, and tonight was the perfect opportunity to seize the capital!

Ryder Personally acting as the vanguard, along with hunters armed with grappling hooks and ropes, silently approached the city beneath the cover of night and the thunder, clumsily threw their hooks, then climbed up holding onto the ropes.

The grating sound of gunfire soon erupted above, and just ten minutes later, the city gates were blasted open. Ham and others waiting outside immediately stormed into the city.

With the elite guard dispatched to Hattar Mansion and with flintlock firearms in hand, Ryder and his men initially encountered little resistance, quickly taking control of a third of the capital.

Many citizens of the capital, immersed in sleep, were also awakened by the successive gunfire. Unlike Hattar Mansion, which was protected by Anluoke’s soundproof divine arts, Ryder and those who invaded the capital had no intention of concealing their actions; their intention was to capture the entire capital as swiftly as possible!
