Chapter 284: The Legendary Thunder Magic!

"Miners... those miners bewitched by devils have invaded!"

Panic-stricken cries echoed throughout the capital. Ever since Duke Rickman led his forces to defeat Count Joyce two weeks ago, rumors ran rampant within the capital.

There were whispers that these miners had been enchanted, turned into mindless, frenzied undead, while the tens of thousands within the count's domain had been used as sacrifices to summon dark deities.

Nobles and merchants hastily gathered guards, frantically packed their belongings to flee. Civilians without means of resistance cowered in fear at home, hoping the kingdom's royal guards would expel the invading miners.

But the capital had the Church, with its immensely powerful Archbishop, the revered Lord of Stars, and the Goddess of the Moon. They would not forsake their devout followers!

Chaos rapidly spread within the capital, the drizzle turning into a torrential downpour. Lightning streaked across the sky, mingling with the sounds of gunfire, akin to a fervent symphony...

Although the flintlock guns wielded by Raydell and others were enchanted to be waterproof, some were inevitably affected; about one-sixth of the firearms couldn't discharge.

Fortunately, armed with the defense blueprint of the capital provided by Prince Hatar, combined with some traitorous insiders, their resistance progressed smoothly. Before the rebel forces could gather, they were systematically dismantled. Raydell then led his group towards their final target—the palace!

The sudden turn of events within the capital didn't affect those within the soundproof enchantment like Nos. However, the downpour that suddenly descended was felt by everyone.

Yet, at this moment, nobody cared. Nos allowed the icy raindrops to trickle into his collar, his gaze fixed on the battle raging at the heart of the mansion.

Anluke was enveloped in an invisible magic barrier, repelling the glistening rain, a towering guardian spirit glowing brightly before him, intercepting the incoming lightning. However, in the next instant, it was blasted away by a surge of magic.

Considering the possibility of attacks from any direction by another powerful wizard, Anluke refrained from using his full strength, merely defending against the opponent's magic. Yet, he grew increasingly uneasy because Anthony before him was too feeble.

Merely possessing the power of a grand wizard, far less than the intelligence gathered beforehand...

"If this is all you're capable of, it ends here!" Anluke held nothing back. Radiant magic enveloped him, rusty chains extending from the void, the Six-Ring Magic—God's Chains—breaking through Anthony's defenses, swiftly restraining him.

It was the Sixth Circle magic—Divine Punishment Chains! Representing judgment upon sinners from the infernal realm, it could suppress magical and divine powers, rendering the bound like a powerless husk.

"Teacher!" Fayz shouted in terror, eager to rush out, yet Johnny and the others firmly held her back.

Earlier, Lynn explicitly instructed them never to leave the premises no matter what happened, retreating to the mansion's underground bunker immediately after Anthony made a move.

However, their concern for Anthony's safety prevented them from strictly following Lynn's orders...

"Is this your limit?" Anthony's expression remained unchanged, his body sizzling like butter under a hot knife.

Thankfully, his mission had been accomplished! Anthony's body, soon severed by the Divine Punishment Chains, didn't spill blood but fractured rapidly like a mirror.

Nos's pupils contracted; the grand wizard before him was merely a magical projection...

Simultaneously, intricate runes appeared on the mansion's tiles, drawing energy from the stored grounding stones underground, forming a powerful electrical field on the surface, synchronizing with the lightning in the sky...

It was a trap!

Nos finally comprehended the source of his unease. Activating his magic, a circular defensive spell emerged around him. Yet, realizing it now proved too late!

The moment the electrical field formed, the guiding spell was completed!

In an instant, colossal lightning bolts crashed down from the clouds, intertwining with the magical runes, creating an intense electrical field.

The raging currents were tightly confined within the mansion, substantial arcs covering the entire area at speeds of dozens of kilometers per second. The falling rain was instantly electrolyzed. Every soul within the estate was engulfed in less than a fraction of a second.

Everything happened so swiftly that Nos and the others were still reveling in Archbishop's victory over Grand Wizard Anthony, only to be met with blinding lightning.

The protective spells on their bodies instantly ruptured. The billions of volts of high-voltage lightning seeped into their bodies, dissolving muscle cells into a putrid mess, the air reeking of burnt flesh.

Inside the main house, similarly shielded by magic, Fayz and the others, at the moment the lightning struck, shut their eyes tightly. Yet, after several tense seconds, they found themselves unscathed, standing in place.

"Is this... a Faraday Cage?" Fayz remained stunned for a while, suddenly realizing this. Despite the seemingly haphazard copper wires entwined around them, it functioned as a miniature Faraday Cage. Hence, even the most terrifying currents couldn't harm them.

Before she could fully comprehend the wonders of the Faraday Cage, Johnny detected an abnormal rise in the concentration of hydrogen and oxygen in the air, urgently shouting, "Don't linger here, quickly, to the bunker, this place is about to explode!"

The power of several billion volts of high-voltage lightning was terrifying enough. Yet, the force of the thunder would electrolyze rainwater into hydrogen and oxygen.

When the hydrogen-oxygen concentration reached a certain level, under the intense heat of tens of thousands of degrees caused by the lightning, it would trigger a new round of explosions. This process would loop continuously, releasing massive amounts of energy, akin to enduring a five-ring magic spell, Elemental Torrent, every second!

This was Lynn's trump card prepared for Anluke—the legendary thunder magic wielded through celestial phenomena and alchemical arrays, usable only with the aid of thunder elements: the Thunder Series Legendary Magic!
