Low Dimensional Game

The crowded and busy Danello City had now become completely quiet. People at the gate and the nearby bazaar all shrank into quiet corners.

After so many years of observing the emergence of such extraordinary power, everyone knew clearly the capabilities of these people. In the eyes of ordinary people, all wizards, priests, Holy Knights and demons were viewed as being as terrible as monsters!

Just after the smoke of the exploratory blow in the battle between Archimonde and Barry dispersed, people saw that a large area of the wall had been damaged. At the moment, more than a dozen alchemists, each wearing silver-white robes, were standing on the wall.

They had come across the sea in a fleet of ships from half a continent away. Their leader was a tall woman with glasses.

Her long hair was tied back in a ponytail, and her eyes were full of intellectual light. It was Marina Bossey, the dean of Akkad Alchemy College. As she put out her hand, a hand formed by mind power immediately seized Jonathan and lifted him up.

“Put him down!” Barry, as head of the arbitral knights, could not let the blasphemer be rescued.

In his anger, he climbed up the city wall, but Archimonde immediately moved towards him. Barry then yelled, “You are clearly asking to die. I will help you with that!”

Barry used a level three divine incantation that was created by the Faith of the Sun. Suddenly, intense light and heat flashed from the sky and was moving straight towards Archimonde.

Archimonde’s body was stiff, but his speed was fast. As steam rose above his head, Archimonde waved, and the temperature immediately dropped to minus ten degrees in an instant. As the walls were all frosted, they collapsed in an instant.

“The Ring of Guardianship!” As Barry used another divine incantation, the alchemy doll immediately set up the mind power force fields.

They used all kinds of divine incantations back and forth. The light of extraordinary power was flashing in the sky and emitting smoke. Within the smoke, people stared at the dark outlines of two figures grappling with each other ten kilometers away. All of them were shocked!

Archimonde’s arms constantly shot out bullets, while his mouth emitted a miniature alchemy canon, which bombarded Barry mercilessly. Both sides used all kinds of means to their limits!

Theirs was a close fight. Archimonde was better with close combat. His steel body could also withstand much more abuse than Barry’s.

At the foot of the wall, the remaining arbitral knights were ready to launch a high level divine incantation combination. As they prepared, a huge sun rose and the light shone on them. This divine incantation combination had already surpassed level four to reach level five!

“The Blazing Sun?” At the moment, Marina looked grave.

Although Marina was a level four wizard and Barry was a level three, they knew that the church could borrow power from the gods, especially when dealing with this kind of large-scale combination of divine incantations. As such, even if one of them was several levels higher than their opponent, they could still be beaten with the added power borrowed from the gods.

“We have Jonathan. Let’s leave. This is the place of the Faith of the Sun!” Archimonde quickly left the battle and followed Marina.

At this moment, the combined divine incantation launch was completed. The huge sun rose high and the burning light shone on the whole city.

People could not even open their eyes under such a strong light. They sensed a burning smell and the ground was very hot. People close to it could even smell burnt hair.

The huge sun was then thrown at the alchemists. Instantly, the wall was torn apart. Even the war base was burnt. Also, the whole ground was melted into a pool of magma! Flames covered a large area, burning the vast sandy beaches outside the city and leaving a huge, barren pit.

The power of the level five divine incantation combination was one of the strongest and most fierce divine incantations of the church. No one thought these alchemists could survive it.

Barry also thought that these people would have died under the power of the blazing sun. After all, the earth was even melted! Surely no one could survive under such a powerful attack!

At this moment, a huge sea monster appeared above the sea. It was a huge giant squid, and riding on the head of it, more than a dozen people could be seen.

This was the giant squid Koukou, and the people on its head were the group of alchemists that were led by Marina, as well as Jonathan and Archimonde. A fleet of ships was approaching them, and when the ships reached them, they all jumped onto the deck of one of them.

“If used well, an illusionary technique can be more powerful than any extraordinary power! This is what I was taught by Catherine, who was a tutor at the wizard tower. She was a wizard who was proficient in illusionary techniques. I always kept her words in mind. Whether it be strong or weak, when used properly, low level magic can play a powerful role!” Marina took Jonathan aboard and healed him, while she spoke to the students beside her.

She had used an illusionary technique to successfully lead the group in escaping from the divine incantation combination. From the initial setup to the later illusion deployment, and all the way to the final projection, a series of delicate operations dazzled all of the students. Even if some of the students didn’t see clearly how Marina did it, they were still shocked by the outcome.

Jonathan’s mouth was bleeding and he felt panicked, but after he saw Marina, he calmed down. However, he sadly said to Marina, “Unfortunately, they can’t come back!”

Marina patted Jonathan on the shoulder. “I’m sorry, I got the news that some of the powerful figures of the Faith of the Sun are coming too. We can’t wait too long, as the arbitral knights are not easy to deal with. These church guys can communicate with the gods, after all. If they call the angels to come, we can’t run away!”

Jonathan totally understood. “I didn’t think you would come in person. I’ve caused you too much trouble, I…”

Jonathan wanted to go on, but Marina stopped him. “Don’t worry. Wait till you’re better. Archimonde, take Jonathan to the lounge!”

Archimonde was transformed by Marina according to the teachings of Lu Zhiyu. With the continuous progress of alchemy, though Marina had not fully understood the essence of alchemy life, she had still been able to carry out such a transformation.

For this to happen, Marina went to sea herself, killed the Children of the Sea, then integrated the deified cells of the spellcasting organ and heart into Archimonde, thus transforming him! Archimonde had also acquired the extraordinary power to control temperature during this process.

Marina chose to use her mind power to deify Archimonde after reaching level four. In this case, Marina and Archimonde became united as one. Marina gambled her entire future on Archimonde. As such, Marina was forging a unique path for future alchemists.

Based on the metal-activated steam engine, Marina had created the first alchemy doll with steam as its driving force. At the same time, she led the development of the steam engine in a special direction, towards a future that was yet unknown.

“Dean, where should we go next?” someone asked Marina.

“Turn around and go to the Yala Continent. We can’t go to Sean City-State Alliance and the academy at the moment. Besides, they are some very interesting changes happening on the Yala Continent!” Marina said.

The fleet changed its course and headed for the deep sea, followed by the giant sea monster Koukou. In this way, Marina journeyed to the Yala Continent once more. But, they were not the only ones who were going there.
