Chapter 299 -149- Divine Glory

Beigang Mage Tower, the core of the magic energy center.

In the huge control cube, the president of the Beigang Branch of the Mercenary Association, wearing a mage's robe, was trembling and his face was pale.

Around him, the six auxiliary Fanxing mages had red eyes and painful expressions, looking like they were overloaded with magic power.

And more than a quarter of the thirty-two mage apprentices who formed the hexagram on the periphery were foaming at the mouth, falling into coma, falling to the ground and twitching...

The aqua blue magic tide rotates around the Rubik's Cube, spreading to all sides with President Layton as the center.

The magic control network connecting all spellcasters has long been crumbling.

Every distant sound of artillery will cause the magic shield connecting the entire Beigang to tremble violently, becoming more and more illusory.

The control cube was flickering on and off, as if it would completely stop functioning at any time.

Suddenly, there was another series of gunshots, and the entire magic shield was hit hard again.

The weakest one among the six auxiliary mages finally couldn't hold on any longer and spurted out a mouthful of blood, then slowly collapsed.

For a time, the pressure on the remaining magic maintainers further increased dramatically!

"Lord Leiden, we can't do it anymore...we...can't hold on anymore..."

A Star Mage said with difficulty.

"Lord Leiden, shrink...reduce the range, the shield...is reaching its limit..."

Another auxiliary mage who was barely able to maintain his sanity also said shaky.

As for the remaining mages, although they are not unconscious yet, they are unable to speak and can only rely on their last instincts to maintain the operation of their magic power.

"No! Hold on! The shield must not be broken!"

Controlling the center of the Rubik's Cube, President Layton gritted his teeth and spoke with difficulty.

As the core of control, he was under far greater pressure than other spellcasters, but it was precisely because of this that Leiden could best feel the intensity of the artillery fire from the Principality's coalition forces.

The artillery bombardment of North Port by the Principality's coalition forces has almost reached a frenzied level.

He knew very well that if the entire magic shield was shrunk at this time, even if it could protect Beigang's city defense, the entire Beigang would suffer great damage.

It was obvious that the third prince didn't care what Beigang would become. He just wanted to capture her as soon as possible. He just wanted to capture the Castel Territory as soon as possible!

As the core of the spell defense system, Leiden knows this very well.

Leighton did not want to see the massive damage to Northport.

As a mage who has lived in Beigang for more than thirty years, in Leiden's heart, Beigang has long become his second home.

Accepting Castel's employment to maintain the operation of the entire defense magic was not only due to the professional needs of the mercenary, but also his own inner impulse.

As a transcendent person in Northport, he wanted to do something.

"President Leiden! Please... look around!"

Fanxing Mage behind him repeated it again with difficulty.

Leiden glanced around, taking in the sight of the spellcasters whose magic power was exhausted.

Beside him, the mages were exhausted, and two Fanxing mages slowly collapsed one after another, and nearly half of the apprentices around him fell into coma.

Although he didn't want to admit it, when Leiden saw the shaky appearance of the mage and apprentices, and felt the magic power in his body that could get out of control at any time, he had to admit a reality:

That is Beigang... There is really no way to maintain the defensive magic covering the entire city.

"That's all, narrow the scope and end the protection of the entire urban area..."

"If your lordship finally asks, just say it was my decision."

Layton sighed softly and said.

There is no way, there are still too few mid- to high-level mages in Castel.

Maintaining such a large-scale defensive magic should be something only Blazing Sun can do. It would be too difficult for Silver Moon like him.

If there are other senior second-level mages besides him who can replace and maintain it, perhaps the entire Beigang's magic defense can last for a while.

But right now...it's really the limit.

All he could do was to avoid the worst-case scenario and give up the protection of Beigang City.

This is not a happy choice.

But Leiden had no choice.

However, just when he ordered to adjust the magic defense system and shrink the entire Beigang magic shield, a familiar voice came from behind:

"No, the shield cannot be contracted, and the entire Northport shield can continue to operate."

Leiden was stunned for a moment, then turned around with difficulty, only to see that the lord of the North, the little earl of Castel, had entered the control cube at some point.

"Uncle...your lord, count?"

Layton was about to say something, but was stopped by the girl who entered the control cube.

Charlotte came to Layton's side and said:

"Lord Leiden, thank you for your hard work. Next... let me maintain the operation of the shield."

"Change...for you?"

Layton was stunned.

He gritted his teeth and said:

"My Lord Earl, thank you for your kindness, but... please leave here quickly."

"Controlling the operation of the Rubik's Cube... not everyone can bear it. Although you are already Silver Moon,... it's still too early..."

"Now the entire magic shield is on the verge of reaching its limit, and the magic power is close to going berserk. You will not be able to keep the shield alive by doing this, and you will also put yourself in danger!"

President Leiden persuaded seriously, wanting Charlotte to leave here quickly.

However, Charlotte had already passed him and took the initiative to stand under the magic vortex of the central control core.

She raised her head, faced President Leiden, and smiled slightly:

"Mr. Leiden, you are right. It is indeed difficult to maintain the magic defense system of the entire North Port..."

"But how do you know if you don't try?"

Try...try?

Leiden was stunned.

But then, he saw the girl came to the bottom of the control cube and knelt down gently.

She closed her eyes lightly, clasped her hands together, and looked pious, with a sacred and solemn expression:

"Merciful God."

"The evil power engulfs the North and erodes your believers..."

"Please give me strength to help me protect the people from disasters. Please give me the supreme grace and bless your people!"

"..."

This... pray to God?

President Leiden was stunned again.

As the president of the Mercenary Association of the North, he had certainly heard some rumors about Charlotte de Castel, especially her suspected identity as the Holy Maiden of the Holy Court.

However, although he had heard it, Leiden had never seen a god respond to believers and take the initiative to participate in the secular disputes of mankind.

But the next moment, Leiden's expression froze.

At the moment when the girl finished praying, a bright light suddenly bloomed on her body, and the sacred light soared into the sky, covering the entire control cube!
