Chapter 194: Unleashing the Power of Electricity and Magnetism!

"What kind of magic is this?" Faced with the speeding scarlet light, Ougust's spectral essence felt a hint of impending doom...

There was no time left for casting those legendary spells that required buildup. After Lynn raised his hand, Ougust barely had a 0.03-second window to react!

In that split moment, Ougust managed only one spell. Guided by his rich combat experience, he instinctively chose to redirect the force field! Though a mere fourth-ring protective spell, empowered by 'divine power,' it unleashed a might surpassing its original level, causing spatial curvature around him, attempting to divert the attack elsewhere.

Yet, he was up against an ultra-fast electromagnetic rail cannon!

The sheer velocity itself possessed the power to warp time and space. However, Ougust's hasty defense had some effect; the iron sphere, initially aimed at his heart, deviated slightly, piercing through his abdomen, shattering half of his body into fragments.

The reduced crimson iron ball then ruthlessly demolished the wall behind, hurtling towards the sky, vanishing without a trace...

By the time Raphael and the others recovered from the dizzying mental assault and the tormenting pain in their eardrums, they found only ruins before them...

"He can't be dead, can he?" Yulande involuntarily swallowed.

"I'm afraid not," Lynn shook his head. He had no doubt that if it were a true twentyfold supersonic electromagnetic rail cannon, Ougust would have been reduced to dust. Yet, regrettably, this was a magic projection created by the 'True Mirror.'

The 'True Mirror' was an illusionary legendary magic of the illusionist school. Lynn had just instructed the genius brain to construct this spell within the realm of magic and then projected it. It was akin to Kashimo's usage of the Falling Stars.

The distinction lay in Lynn's thorough theoretical foundation, unlike Kashimo's mere fantasies. Moreover, the 'True Mirror' being a legendary magic could exert about half the power of the original.

However, killing Ougust with this proved to be not so simple. Lynn even suspected that even if he destroyed the physical body, the opponent could continue the fight in a spiritual form.

As expected, after a brief silence, Ougust's voice resounded once again.

"This is quite a nice gift..."

Simultaneously, massive rubble from the collapsed ground levitated, controlled by some force, hurtling towards the group.

Lynn raised his hand again, a ripple in space appearing, sending the shattered debris flying. However, the mark shimmering on his forehead dimmed. He had exhausted the last shred of magic granted by Aurora, and the legendary spell slot in his mind shattered.

Amidst violent coughs, Ougust, drenched in blood, struggled to stand. His face masked with shadows and rage, his injuries now rapidly healing, yet the newly grown limbs looked somewhat grotesque.

"I must admit, your performance continues to astonish me, Lynn..." Ougust's gaze remained fixed on the young sorcerer before him.

Since the days of the 'Dual Sphere Experiment,' leveraging the influence of the Magic Daily, he had noticed this overly ambitious young sorcerer gaining prominence in the Wizarding World.

A sub-twenty-year-old third-ring sorcerer, brimming with talent akin to Ougust's own in his youth, seemed an ideal backup for his second body.

However, as the youth's reputation soared, proposing even the Theory of Universal Gravity, Ougust's greedy desire turned into slight apprehension.

Ougust faintly suspected that this young sorcerer, much like himself, was once a powerful wizard, seizing a young and talented body to achieve his current accomplishments.

"Your magic is indeed formidable. Yet, in this domain, I am an invincible entity!" Ougust's voice was cold. In mere seconds, his broken body had completely regenerated, and his aura was even more imposing than before, as the divine realm now enshrouded most of Grelnir.

Despite his words, Ougust dared not approach recklessly. The electromagnetic rail cannon's speed was simply too swift. Only at a distance of over a hundred meters did he have the assurance to divert the attack elsewhere at the moment of impact.

"I believe our battle has concluded," Lynn shook his head. His minute of delay was over. "If you have something to say, perhaps you should explain it to the Councilors."

Surprisingly, up to this moment, Ougust thought Lynn was still attempting to deceive him, a faint smirk playing on his lips. "Allow me to inform you, at the speed of a legendary sorcerer, it doesn't take even an hour to travel from Grelnir to Kogar Mountain. Why do you think they lingered in the Mages' Stone Mine for half a month without any news? They might have already been swept away by..."

"Swept away by spatial turbulence?"

A burst of enraged shouting suddenly interrupted Ougust's words. Subsequently, the wall on the right side of the Corona Tower was forcefully shattered.

"It's you, and only you I hadn't anticipated, Ougust!" Amidst the swirling dust, Harof looked at the remarkably young sorcerer with profound disappointment.

After checking Fayz's injuries, he had guessed that this assault might not be as simple as it appeared. Yet, the anomaly within the Mages' Stone Mine couldn't be ignored, prompting him to suggest leading the team there, hoping those hiding in the shadows would reveal themselves.

However, he had unwittingly pushed Ougust into the position of acting Speaker.

About three to four seconds later, two more figures appeared in the Corona Tower, both legendary sorcerers: Aurora and Victorio. The three formed a semi-circular formation, vaguely surrounding Ougust in the middle.

Victorio didn't glance at Ougust but turned to Lynn, showing keen interest as he inquired, "Was it you who shattered the Corona Tower with magic just now? I sensed the power of lightning and magnetic fields..."

Though they arrived late and hadn't witnessed Lynn casting the spell, they had seen a flash of scarlet light breaking through the Corona Tower, hurtling towards the sky at an unimaginable speed.

"Yes," Lynn nodded, explaining, "This magic is still in a theoretical stage, a collaborative effort between me and some scholars within the Society of Mystical Arts."

"Thanks to Lady Aurora's assistance, I could glimpse its power this time."
