Chapter 160 153 gruesome
the once pitch-black chamber was now filled with splendid radiance, and all the mages inside knelt on one knee, gazing up at the elder who moved like a divine dragon through the river of golden particles in mid-air.
he was the true master of the six towers, the only holy magus on emerald sea star—a being who had lived for more than two hundred years, you kang!
at that moment, his grayish-white pupils had turned a pure gold. countless golden particles frolicked around his body like sprites, and the golden river carried his aged yet robust form, extending from beneath his feet down into the stone platform, and further down, all the way to the core of the planet.
there, a gigantic eye with a diameter of hundreds of kilometers had fully opened, and its golden pupil was just like you kang's, which had been painted gold.
the stunning middle-aged female mage, master of the fire element mage's tower and great mage bridget, with endless admiration, said to the surrounding mages, "holy magus, truly deserving the title of the most talented mage of the six towers for a millennium. this is an accomplishment never before achieved. he can now harness the power of the magic eye through the earth's ley lines.
on this star, whoever commands the magic eye is a deity! the people from iridium star will no longer be able to be arrogant. the holy magus will bury their chancellor, and thereafter, he will lead us to utterly defeat the iridium star, and with this opportunity, the six towers will completely seize control of all the kingdoms of the northern continent.
we shall no longer be satisfied being mere guests of these kingdoms, but rather, we shall build a kingdom of mages!"
this exciting vision dazzled all the mages present. ever since firearms became standard issue for the armies of the kingdoms of the northern continent, the status of mages had been on the decline, with many even dying on the battlefield. the kingdoms cut back on their offerings to the mage towers and even made crude, demanding requests. naturally, the mages harbored grievances.
with the help of the iridians, significantly weakening the kingdoms, and then displaying the divine powers of the holy magus, everyone on the northern continent would revere the divine power of the six towers. from that point on, only the six towers would wield power on this planet, and all people would become subjects of the six towers.
one mage asked bridget, "tower master, what kind of spectacle will it be when the holy magus, from thousands of miles away, attacks infia?"

bridget was about to speak when you kang, floating along the golden river, spoke, "you shall see for yourselves."
with a wave of his hand, images appeared on the stone platform, showing infia, which was once thriving with sci-fi charm and industrial allure. now, the land was in upheaval, buildings continuously collapsing. the biggest city on emerald sea star, which had been built over several months, was instantly destroyed!
——scene cut——
in the lab, linyin and the iridian experimental personnel were hiding behind a screen of light, looking extremely pale.
what saved linyin was the experimental lab's original shield system designed to protect equipment, which now shielded all the test personnel. but in other places in infia, people did not have anything similar.
"i wonder if the chancellor is okay," linyin thought worriedly.
————cut to another scene————
bai zhongqi lay on the ground, surprised to see an iron-colored shield taller than a person blocking the alloy construction materials that had fallen from the roof.
the moment han jiaxue pushed her away, more huge stones fell from the roof. bai zhongqi, in a panic, blocked them with her arms, but a giant shield floating in the air appeared out of nowhere, shielding him from the disaster in front of him.
bai zhongqi also noticed that the shield seemed to be emitting an almost translucent barrier, completely covering his body and preventing anything from getting close to him.
"what is this thing?"
xu lanzhou's voice came quickly over the communicator: "your majesty, are you alright? my 'shield' suddenly activated, you must be in danger!"
only then did bai zhongqi realize that the shield was xu lanzhou's. he couldn't quite understand how this suddenly appearing shield was related to the shield knight, but he quickly replied, "i'm fine, infia has experienced an earthquake, i'm not sure about the damage yet, immediately prepare for rescue!"
after finishing, he hung up, got up under the large shield, and looked around frantically, calling out han jiaxue's name.
"i... i'm here."
bai zhongqi heard an incredibly weak voice, and everywhere he looked had already turned into ruins. he did not understand why the theoretically earthquake-resistant palace collapsed, and he regretted not asking xiao yu if the palace was equipped with a shield system.
when he saw han jiaxue, his heart broke, and tears welled up uncontrollably.
large stones had completely shattered han jiaxue's legs, and he could even see her limbs that were already disconnected from her body. although han jiaxue's torso and head had also been struck, they were not as devastatingly injured as her legs.
bai zhongqi kindled a glimmer of hope, as the supreme command in his bonebrain urgently spurred into action. he needed medical robots, a medical pod, all available medical equipment. as long as han jiaxue was still breathing, she could be saved!
