“Dinos, now that your mentor has chosen you, you should know the truth about the Sun and the Holy Spirit.”
"...Yes, esteemed Wizard Freya."
“We hold the key to the Holy Spirit, or rather, every wizard who has successfully stepped onto the Sun holds this key.”
The first sentence shattered all the rumors circulating in the wizarding world that "Sunday has lost its path to the Holy Spirit." However, Dinos was not surprised at all; he simply lowered his head more cautiously.
"However, this key leads not only to the Holy Spirit's power, which is enough to tear planets apart, but also to the 'price' that must be paid to bind the soul of every wizard in order to obtain this power."
"Yes, the Holy Spirits do exist, but they did not leave because they feared their existence would cause damage to the wizarding world. They were simply forced to leave... to protect themselves and to protect the wizarding civilization."
Dinos hesitated, his gaze drifting towards the distant "tidal wave." Noticing his gaze, the Sun Wizard spoke calmly: "Dinos, every wizard possesses their own 'domain,' and as the only 'Holy Spirit Wizard' capable of 'descending,' do you know where Antonio's ninth-level Holy Spirit's 'domain' is?"
Sensing the increasingly irritable "mana" around him, Dinos's expression changed drastically.
Wizarding Civilization: Chapter 820: The Washaway
If we consider wizards as a source of radiation, then the area they create by activating "mana" through their spiritual power is the radiation field.
In order to explore the abilities of wizards, Earth's civilization specifically constructed models and classifications for these powers, which wizards called "domains".
The radiation field of a wizard apprentice is quite weak, and may not be detectable even with instruments. It only becomes more noticeable when the apprentice reaches the third level. At this point, the danger level of their radiation field is not considered serious, and it would take twenty or thirty years to kill them even if they stayed nearby.
The radiation field of a formal wizard is relatively obvious, with a significantly increased range and intensity, and possesses enough lethal energy for ordinary people.
By the time of the Star Wizards, the radiation field had expanded again, reaching a level that distorted light and manifested visually. Any wizard possessed the ability to cause massacres among mortals, and for this reason, they built tall wizard towers to isolate themselves from the surface world.
Based on this, Earth civilization has made possible speculations about the "radiation field" of Holy Spirit-level wizards above the stars.
One possibility is that the Holy Spirit Wizard's radiation field will be completely solidified, no longer limited to vision, but able to interfere with the objective world in material form.
The second possibility is that the Holy Spirit Wizard's radiation field will expand to a great extent, becoming something similar to an ultimate radiation unit.
"Is the result that both are true?"
At the edge of the horizon, the sea, thousands of meters high, had already covered most of the sky near the coastline, and the surrounding light was decreasing at a visible rate.
As a "Holy Spirit Wizard," its radiation field did indeed interfere with reality—"mana." This omnipotent substance transformed from a figment of subjective imagination into an objective substance that could be captured or even extracted. The 1.2g of "mana" that was urgently transported to "Prometheus" at this moment is the best evidence of this.
While interfering with reality, the radiation field of the "Holy Spirit Wizard" far exceeds the limit of the Star Wizard... or rather, the two are not even the same thing.
In the model of Earth's civilization records, even the former second seat of the Tower Alliance, the Sun Wizard Ravul, would not have had a radiation field range exceeding 10,000 meters. And what about the current "Holy Spirit Wizard"?
A planet.
Moreover, it is a planet with a diameter at least ten times that of Earth.
Moreover, this might only be the radius, since this "Holy Spirit Wizard" is currently located on the surface of the planet rather than at its core.
In this world, Lin Yi can connect mortals and wizards because they share the same physiology and physical structure; he can also connect wizards and star wizards because the power they wield is essentially the same. But in any case, Lin Yi will not connect this "Holy Spirit" with wizards.
Even if it borrows the appearance of a "wizard", it cannot change the fact that its inner essence has been tampered with.
“I should call you ‘Holy Spirit’.”
Behind them, all the weapons within the H-84 folding space were fully charged, various energy particles, some deep red and some blazing white, compressed and condensed, pointing directly at the numb figure in front of the "tsunami": "Still 'Wizard's Will'?"
……
"boom--------------!!!"
A burst of intense light erupted at the last juncture between the ocean and the land, lasting for less than three seconds before being engulfed and covered by the seemingly endless seawater that followed. Everyone who had been urgently transferred to "Prometheus" stared blankly at the land below.
The endless blue sea encroached upon the earth, and the surging tide destroyed everything, man-made or not. In less than five minutes, the sea destroyed everything that Earth's civilization had spent nearly three years building on this planet, and it continued its relentless sweep westward across the land...
"High-energy reaction detected in the sky—"
The piercing scream sent a chill down everyone's spine. After witnessing the disappearance of the west coast, no one doubted whether the "Holy Spirit Wizard" below possessed the ability to destroy "Prometheus." To such an individual, this space carrier floating at a height of five thousand meters was probably no different from a mosquito in the eyes of humans.
But if he were to actually take action against this space carrier—
"Wait...the target isn't us...down there—that wizard!"
The next second, a light hundreds of times more intense than a nuclear explosion erupted on the land submerged by the ocean. More than three hundred space-based particle railguns simultaneously hit the target. The temperature of millions of degrees instantly evaporated the seawater within a range of thousands of meters, along with the matter thousands of meters below, but it could not evaporate the figure standing at the center...
Raising his head, the wizard, whose surface was covered by a thin film of light, remained expressionless, only his lips moved slightly as he pointed his finger towards the sky.
At an altitude of 360,000 meters above the Earth's surface, a satellite that had been orbiting in sync with the planet below suddenly stopped, its exposed parts, torn apart by the force of the tearing, ejected as it began to fall uncontrollably downwards.
On the Wizarding Continent, both wizards and mortals witnessed this magnificent "meteor shower".
……
[Terminal control mechanism damaged, loss rate 20%...50%...100%, all units lost signal]
The data stream that was constantly scrolling through his eyes came to an abrupt halt. The shock of more than three hundred signal interruptions in an instant even dimmed the rose of Our Lady on his forehead.
[Overload mode activated.]
The hands, exposed outside the white robe, had crimson veins that resembled blood spreading and expanding little by little, in exchange for the ever-growing energy orbs in their hands.
Code:Psionic hea.vy artillery
A beam of blazing white energy, crackling with electricity, erupted, but this time it was intercepted by the defensive field piled up in front of it before it could even hit its target.
The twenty-four-sided rectangular "plane" formed a dice-like "box," and just as the "Holy Spirit Wizard," his face numb, was about to swing his arm—
"call out----------"
A deep red beam of light pierced straight up, and the thin light membrane on the "wizard's" body finally shattered after a violent tremor. With a look of "bewilderment," the graviton ray directly "dissolved" the wizard's skin, flesh, bones—and heart—at the atomic level, penetrating from behind and disappearing into the edge of space.
"Father!"
Wizarding Civilization: Chapter 821 "Grasping" the Stars (Part 1)
Because the "Holy Spirit Wizard" stopped, Eve quickly got rid of the "box," but she suddenly stopped when she got close to that familiar voice, not because of the illusory outline revealed under the tattered black robe, but because of the voice in her mind.
【Let's go back. 】
"…Father?"
The main god space.
By forcibly transferring Eve out of that world, the main god took her away. With her as the endpoint, all the units invested in that world were recovered. The false information entity, having fulfilled its last "duty," also collapsed during the separation.
"So, relying on such shortcuts really doesn't work after all?"
The combat power of this artificial humanoid, which is based solely on false information formed by the perception of humans on Earth, is only barely at the national level. Its previous performance was entirely due to the combination of various equipment. Otherwise, it would be questionable whether it could even defeat the original Sun Wizard, let alone the Sun Wizard.
With the collapse of the entire H-84 fold space, this disinformation saga has come to an end.
Two years ago, faced with this situation, Lin Yi would have either forcibly intervened in that world and taken matters into his own hands, or simply given up exploring that world—after all, the cost wasn't much, and there didn't seem to be many other options.
but now……
"Although I'm not very familiar with it yet, isn't it the best tool for experiments?"
----------segmentation----------
The Wizarding World.
With the disappearance of their two only "collaborators" through "death" and "disappearance," "Prometheus," which had not yet had time to evacuate the west coast, seemed to be facing its inevitable end.
The hovering space carrier has super-strong armor made of Imperial Arms material, an anti-gravity engine powered by Sakura Stone energy, a super electromagnetic cannon that fully realizes the concept of electromagnetic weapons, and even no less than a thousand Knightmare fighters and various combat bombers.
It is no exaggeration to say that a sky fortress like Ryuba Jiuwu VII I Mioshi Zero Wu possesses the combat power to easily crush any country on Earth before the portal was opened. Even nuclear bombs that are said to be able to take the whole world down with them would be rendered ineffective by various electronic interferences that are more than a generation ahead of their time.
But now?
Exhaling a long, heavy breath, Zhang Longshao shifted his gaze from the now-calmed battlefield and raised his hand to straighten his clothes.
"Commander, what's wrong...?"
"I have no regrets."
It was as if he was explaining to his adjutant, or as if he were talking to himself: "To participate in this event that defines a new era as a soldier, to bring innocent people to the battlefield, and then to bring war to even more innocent people."
"I know that many anti-war activists on Earth call people like us demons, saying we should go to the deepest hell after we die, but I still don't regret it... Do you regret it?"
The adjutant, who was being questioned, paused for a moment, then shook his head vigorously: "No regrets!"
"...Even if we don't do it, our descendants will in the future, but under no circumstances should we hand it over to the enemy."
[High-energy reaction detected. Emergency evasion failed. Contact expected in five seconds.]
"I would rather die as a demon wielding a butcher's knife than let future generations suffer the same fate as I do now, waiting for death under this knife."
With eyes closed, accompanied by the piercing alarm, the powerless await death.
【5】
Apart from a small number of people who are still trying in vain to make amends, most people have chosen to spend the last few seconds of their lives in other ways.
【4】
In a panic, he jumped off "Prometheus"—
【3】
An emotional breakdown and sobbing uncontrollably—
【2】
Kneeling on the ground begging for forgiveness—
【1】
Calmly accept the fate that belongs to the "loser".
"Boom———The little guy is like a phosphorus (five) umbrella handle (7) IIII—————!!!"
There were no accidents, no miracles, and no rescuers who rushed in at the last minute.
Despite losing its heart, the "Holy Spirit Wizard" did not cease its actions due to the interruption of its heart and blood circulation. Instead, with its now-empty heart, it unleashed a spell on the hovering space carrier—accurately hitting its target.
The super-strong metal, capable of withstanding a 120mm armor-piercing shell head-on, was easily torn apart like paper. The enormous sky barrier was split in two along its middle, and the tiny lives clinging to it fell in all directions along with the wreckage of "Prometheus"...
As the "Holy Spirit Wizard" stopped, he seemed to notice something and turned his numb gaze back to the relatively larger piece among the many remains of "Prometheus".
His lips twitched slightly, and the sea of "mana," which had only calmed for less than two seconds, roared silently once more, solidifying again under the "wizard's" will—
[Form Failure]
—Disorganized.
"—"
All of the "Holy Spirit Wizard's" movements suddenly stopped, and after a moment, it looked around at everything.
[Light Residue]
The world before them seemed to slow down tenfold, everything became extremely slow, yet the bodies were still able to move freely. This huge contrast was enough to drive any person with normal senses mad, but it meant nothing to the "Holy Spirit Wizard" who had already covered the entire surface of the wizard planet with the "radiation field".
It does not use the primitive light-capturing organ of "eyes" to observe the world.
Soon, the "Holy Spirit Wizard" found his target in the sea of "Mnana," which was equivalent to his "sensory extension."
At some unknown time, a ring less than ten centimeters in diameter appeared in the space where the false information system collapsed, one end connecting to the wizarding world, the other leading to an unknown destination—
“taliy——”
[Suspension of the transaction]
The flowing air froze, and the "spell" spreading from the mouth couldn't even reach the ears, let alone pry open the "mana".
Admittedly, in this world, "mana" is equivalent to the physical and sensory extension of the "Holy Spirit Wizard." However, if a person's nerves are so dull that it takes several seconds to transmit the command to the brain to perform an action, then no matter how sensitive the senses are, they are destined to be meaningless.
Upon noticing this, the "Holy Spirit Wizard" immediately stopped this pointless action. It spread its limbs as wide as possible, maximizing its contact area with the "mana" in a way that could be described as "primitive".
……
The main god space.
"Generalized rules are not applicable to information operation systems. Rather than first analyzing the rules of a world and then modifying them, it is better to intervene directly with the established rules from the beginning."
Shaking his head, Lin Yi completely gave up on his plan to use the Wizarding World's own rules to disrupt the Wizarding World. Perhaps he could do it someday in the future, but for Lin Yi at present, such an operation was still quite difficult.
In contrast, it is remarkably easy to forcibly intervene in another world by utilizing different external "rules," for example—
Within the main god space, h = (hc/G)^0.5 = 2.18 x 10^-8 kg. Information concept intervention, object: right hand.
In the Wizarding World, h = (hc/G)^0.5 = 2.18 x 10^-48 kg. This involves informational concepts, specifically the Planck unit of mass.
"Then--"
