Chapter 536 -483: The War Plan of the Nuclear Empire?

Harrov’s words set off a flurry of discussion among those present, as they speculated about the current state of the Holy City.

Ever since the Wizard had occupied the kingdom, the council had not ceased to place spies within the empire’s borders.

Thanks to the powerful disguising abilities of the wizards from the Shaping Science School, even though the church’s priests and bishops were constantly hunting Spellcasters, they had still managed to establish a firm footing in key cities and brought back many critical pieces of intelligence.

But the Holy City was an exception!

It was protected by a powerful Divine Arts, which could detect magic power reactions and only allowed the followers of that false god to enter, making for a high level of security.

It must be said that in this respect, the church had a significant advantage over them, or perhaps it was easier to detect on the opponent’s side.

According to Lynn’s speculation, the so-called Divine Energy was likely a special kind of magic power, bearing the mark of the false god. As for assessing faith, he hadn’t completely figured it out yet but if it were similar to the magic web, the detection was not difficult—for example, he could easily sense which wizard had a spiritual connection with the magic web.

However, it wasn’t so easy for the council to catch the church’s spies. The personnel entering and leaving Fire Oil City were a mixed bunch, including traders, poor refugees from the empire, daily supply caravans of raw ore, and wizards newly joining the council—it was impossible to search the memories of every individual.

In addition, the magic frequency of each wizard was different, so they could only establish a magic barrier within Fire Oil City to detect Divine Arts as a second-best solution.

“It looks like the church wants to avoid long-range nuclear strikes with this,” Vittorio said thoughtfully after hearing the descriptions from several pilots; a special force field Divine Arts had been set up on the outskirts of the Holy City.

This meant they couldn’t use electromagnetic projection technology to deliver Lynn’s developed magic “Sky Vaulting” directly into the core of the Holy City and obliterate the entire city.

“Can your ‘Atomic Breath’ pierce the Holy City’s defenses?” Aurora, still pale, couldn’t help asking.

In terms of the scope of destruction, “Atomic Breath” was far less than one percent of “Sky Vaulting,” but its concentrated power was relatively greater.

Their numerous encounters with the avatars of Alade had already proven with facts that as long as sufficient energy was released, they could break through the projection of the Divine Kingdom.

“Whether it’s a sure thing or not, that’s something we can only find out when we get there,” Lynn didn’t boast nor did he blindly believe that the power of a nuclear explosion could destroy everything.

If it were Divine Arts from the Holy Maiden or some high-level church official, he could break it with no problem, but if Alade herself had cast the spell, then the outcome was unknown.

“Regardless, the church fears our power!” Harrov suddenly said with a laugh, and with just one sentence, the atmosphere in the council rose!

In the past, it was always the church’s various organized crusades that went to subjugate the Magic Kingdom. Although they had consistently achieved great victories with the various new weapons developed by Lynn, the star of magic, and even organized a counterattack that penetrated deep into the empire’s heartland, capturing Fire Oil City, they still couldn’t conceal the fact that the council had always been on the defensive.

But now it was different. According to reports from pilots and spies from various regions, the empire had begun to contract its forces, and the church’s core strength was even hiding within the shell of the Holy City—this precisely showed the enemy’s fear!

The dynamics of attack and defense were changing today!

“Since that place is under the protection of a false god, we might as well start with the other key cities of the empire, to dismantle the church’s faith,” Alade proposed, quickly drawing agreement from the other council members.

There was even an extremist wizard who suggested using the Big Nuclear Explosion Technique to cleanse the empire’s major cities, in retaliation for their attacks on Fire Oil City.

“Do you know how many people are under the church’s rule? There are thirty duchies and over eighty earldoms in the empire, with over a hundred cities each having populations of over one hundred thousand, not to mention the innumerable villages and towns. It’s simply impossible for the council alone to carry out a blood purge of the entire empire,” Lynn directly refused the proposal to nuke the empire.

It was a bit unrealistic; even after months of mining and extracting uranium ore, they had only accumulated around two hundred kilograms of Uranium-235, enough for thirteen critical mass nuclear explosions when delivered by warplanes.

As for tritium and deuterium, those elements were required as an energy source for ascending to the ranks of legends and couldn’t be used casually.

If it were any ancient dynasty, just surviving thirteen nuclear explosions would cause a direct collapse, but the church would never surrender!

This would only further solidify what the bishops propagated—that wizards were the harbingers of doomsday!

“Don’t forget that the church once actively released an Evil God within the empire’s territory,” Lynn reminded them once more.

The greater the fear of doomsday, the stronger the faith of some would become. After all, facing an unstoppable force, all that ordinary poor folk could do was pray for divine salvation.

Not to mention this would also provoke hatred; the reputation of wizards within the empire had long been tainted by the church’s propaganda. Lynn had no intention of ruling through fear.

In his view, it was better to use these resources to deal with that false god. Once Alade was dead, the entire Divine Arts system she had created would crumble!

As he spoke, Lynn suddenly changed his tone. “However, Master Alade does have a point. That is, we can find ways to dissolve the faith in the hearts of the empire’s citizens and weaken the power of that false god!”
