Chapter 185: The Mad Doomsday Cultists

The Silent Domain, Magic Shielding, Advanced Elemental Resistance...

At noon the next day, outside a vast estate, hundreds of wizards were scattered across its various corners, casting spells together. A sturdy magical barrier suddenly enveloped the entire estate, creating a barrier isolating it from the outside world.

This was to prevent the upcoming battle from affecting the surroundings, avoiding unnecessary chaos and trouble. After all, this area belonged to the city, and besides the wizards, there were many non-magic civilians.

Lynn, Orlando, Kevin, Yulande, and others were fully prepared, quietly awaiting the signal to attack.

According to the previous agreement, all members involved in this operation, including the city guards, councilors, and civilian wizards, were divided into four teams.

The first team, led by Ougust and three high-level wizards, would launch a frontal attack, swiftly breaking in to capture the core members of the Doomsday cult.

The second and third teams would attack from the other two entrances of the estate, completely blocking any possibility of the Doomsday cultists escaping in those directions.

As for the last team staying outside, they were to prevent any sudden situations and were responsible for apprehending the incapacitated cultists, clearing the remnants, and tending to the injured.

Lynn was part of the third team, a total of nineteen members led by his old acquaintance, the grand wizard Raphael. Not a large number, but all were second or third-tier wizards, no weaklings among them.

Facing such a grand setup, some young civilian wizards showed no hint of fear but rather seemed eager.

"The upcoming battle, you all better be vigilant. According to the city guard's report, these Doomsday cultists are beyond madness. They won't show any mercy. Any carelessness can be fatal!" Raphael said sternly, then turned to Lynn to continue.

"Lynn, theoretical magic and practical combat sometimes don't match. During the fight, prioritize your safety; don't let your guard down."

In Raphael's eyes, theoretical wizards like Lynn usually had slightly weaker combat abilities.

After all, human energy was limited. Lynn had exceptional knowledge of elements, arcane arts, and celestial bodies. It wasn't reasonable to expect him to possess extensive combat experience.

Instances of powerful wizards being killed by minor spells due to negligence were plentiful.

Kevin, Orlando, and the others nearby wore odd expressions at these words. These wizards from the Iyeta school were well aware of Lynn's background. He had come all the way from the Seckas Empire under the church's rule.

According to Loude's account, before Lynn crossed the sea to the land of wizards, he destroyed half a town, killing thousands of armored guards...

With Raphael's reminder, Lynn nodded in agreement. In fact, if possible, he wished to be assigned to the fourth team for logistical support, but unfortunately, Ougust didn't give him that opportunity.

Also... Lynn glanced sideways. In the mental link mode, he swept a glance toward five o'clock behind him. The legendary sorceress Aurora had followed him for a whole night and half a day, always staying within ten meters, not even exempting him when he went to the restroom deliberately.

As a result, a ridiculous idea vaguely surfaced in Lynn's mind. Could it be that she had no way to leave him? Otherwise, who would idle around following someone all the time, not letting go even during meals, sleep, or bathroom breaks? Could this Aurora have some extremely unique personal preference?

While pondering, a sudden explosion resounded from inside the estate. Everyone's expressions changed. That was the signal for action!

"Let's go!"

Raphael shouted, leading everyone straight into the estate.

Inside the estate now lay chaos, flames soaring, thick smoke billowing, explosions mingled with screams continually echoing. The scene was pure pandemonium.

"What the hell is happening?"

"Enemy attack!!" "Quick, inform the Ambassador..."

These continuous shouts reverberated within the estate. The first wave of attacks seemed incredibly smooth, and Lynn's group hardly encountered any decent resistance as they charged into the front hall.

Considering many Doomsday cultists were bewitched wizards, they didn't show lethal intent, using imprisonment and unconsciousness spells to subdue individuals, leaving the rest to the logistical team.

However, the chaotic scene didn't last long. As they advanced, the resistance they encountered became fiercer. The Doomsday cultists, now realizing the situation, unleashed their madness to the fullest, displaying fearlessness in their actions.

Flame Burst, Multiple Fireballs...

Just as Lynn and his group passed through a corridor, they were met with a barrage of scorching fireballs.

"Let me handle this!" Yulande stepped forward quickly, extending her hand.

Blizzard Storm.

In the void, the constantly moving water molecules seemed to be summoned, gathering and condensing into sharp ice pieces, rushing forward like a whirlpool. A frost storm instantly covered the entire corridor, extinguishing the fireballs before they could approach.

Raphael, who had been observing without intervening, believed this operation against the Doomsday cultists was an excellent opportunity for the formally trained wizards lacking combat experience, his responsibility being their safety.

However, just as this thought flashed in his mind, Raphael felt an ominous warning. After the ice and flames dissipated, the scene in the hall appeared before them.

Ten or so Doomsday cultist wizards had a fanatical look. In front of them was a menacing advanced magic crystal cannon, substantial magical energy condensing at its half-meter-wide muzzle...

Were these people insane? Raphael gasped. Using a magic crystal cannon in such a confined space was courting death.

In that moment, the brief charging had been completed. A dazzling blue light burst forth, aiming directly at Lynn and his group.

"Get down!" Raphael roared, simultaneously unleashing his strongest protective magic.

Sighing Wall.

In an instant, a colossal wall of steel rose before them, blocking the terrifying energy beam released by the magic crystal cannon.

The sturdy Sighing Wall, however, was torn apart like soft mud in front of the charging magic crystal cannon, and then the blue light exploded violently.

"Boom!"

Amidst the earth-shattering roar, the entire estate trembled. A terrifying shockwave spread, sweeping up billows of dust. Except for Raphael, everyone present was sent flying by the intense shockwave...
