Chapter 409: A Solo Stand Against the Crusade, a Battle Worthy of History!
As the casters vanished, the continuous beams of light raining down from the sky ceased. The battlefield was now a chaotic mess, with countless shattered rocks and mud strewn about. Scorched earth covered the ground, and over ten thousand soldiers bore the marks of light, some already unconscious, others barely holding on, all having lost their fighting spirit.
What was initially a well-prepared surprise attack, turning the entire imperial legion into a fleeing mess, resulted in heavy casualties.
Some soldiers, lacking strong faith, even developed fear and panic towards the sunlight. When the warm rays touched their bodies, they screamed in terror.
Soon, a soaring hymn echoed across the brutal battlefield. Under the scorching sun, a verdant rain began to fall from the sky...
The wounded, wailing in pain, gradually calmed down as the drops of rain touched their faces. Their grimacing expressions turned serene, and they drifted into unconsciousness, their burned injuries slowly healing.
This was the legendary divine spell—the Rain of Blessings! Cast personally by Lucia, it had a range sufficient to cover the entire battlefield. The surviving imperial soldiers, whether burned or mutilated, were rapidly recovering.
Fluorescence also appeared on the bodies of the deceased.
The second effect of the Rain of Blessings was to guide the souls of the departed to the divine realm.
"Their souls shall receive eternal protection, and in the divine realm, they shall forever enjoy joy..." several bishops sang loudly.
Lucia, performing the divine spell, quickly tallied the casualties within a minute. Approximately over four thousand soldiers died under the impact of the magic, and the number of wounded exceeded tens of thousands.
The only good news was that most of the casualties were ordinary soldiers. The divine punishment knights, clad in reflective silver armor and equipped with multiple layers of protection, could largely resist the power of the laser. However, under the previous [Sunlight Illumination], they suffered casualties exceeding a thousand.
"Under the crown of Lucia, should we continue the pursuit?" Joshua asked, looking at the chaotic battlefield.
"First, tend to the wounded." Lucia shook her head. Although she healed the injuries of these people, the morale of the imperial legion had already been severely damaged.
Moreover, in this short time, the scattered musketeers had already regrouped and orderly retreated out of sight.
Continuing the pursuit would obviously yield no favorable results.
"Do you have information on this sorcerer?" Lucia suddenly extended her hand, and a water screen appeared in front of her.
In the water screen was a young sorcerer with brown hair.
...
Praised by everyone, Lynn's consciousness had returned to his body.
Controlling an avatar from hundreds of kilometers away to complete such a massive spell was no easy task. The mental exhaustion was severe, and even his brain faintly felt swollen.
"Lynn Maxwell, are you okay?" Raphael anxiously inquired.
They were just discussing whether to dispatch an airship for rapid reinforcement when Lynn suddenly raised his hand to stop his words. Then, he closed his eyes and sat still, motionless.
"I'm fine. I personally went over there."
Lynn didn't conceal anything, directly recounting what he had seen and heard.
"So, Dean, did you single-handedly force back the Holy See's crusade of tens of thousands?" Elok's face was filled with admiration and disbelief.
You must know that even the president Harof, leading tens of thousands of musketeers, could only retreat in the face of the attack, but the dean managed to severely cripple them using magic.
This was simply incredible...
"It can't be considered forcing them back, at most, I delayed them for a while." Lynn shook his head, truthfully explaining.
However, in the eyes of Raphael and others, even this was already extremely exaggerated. With just an avatar, he managed to stall tens of thousands of crusaders and at least one legendary divine professional. This would undoubtedly be a battle worthy of history!
