Chapter 217

If someone were to drill into that huge tube, one would see the inner walls densely wound with metal coils . There was not a single gap . Close to the top of the tube, there was even a metal coil that had already been burnt up, slowly falling .

Of course, there were many more structures, complicated beyond the realm of human understanding, which was another matter .

According to the artist friend (who was artistically talented but lived a little poorly due to his enthusiasm for DIY projects), this was called a coil-type electromagnetic gun . The initial speed of the projectile was slow . It relied on a long barrel to provide acceleration . But if the barrel was long enough, the power supply sufficient, and the design perfect, it could launch extremely heavy things at frighteningly high speeds .

It would be theoretically possible to shoot a one-ton mass of iron at the speed of the Third Cosmic Velocity without difficulty .

Sui Xiong did not quite understand the standards they referred to . Although he was provided with formulas, he could not even bear to look at calculus, let alone attempt to calculate it . He could only exhaust his ability and do his utmost best .

Because his ability to cast spells was sealed off, he had to turn his own body into the gun barrel . He conducted several small tests underground, more or less estimating the limits of his transformation, on the basis that it remained “controllable . ”

The final product was this outrageously huge super electromagnetic gun .

Its height had not been measured . The part sticking above ground was as large as Mount Everest, if a conservative estimate were to be used . The underground portions were three times larger than that .

Its power supply could not be measured . Sui Xiong’s one attack used up 70 or 80 percent of his energy reserves .

As for the power of the gun? The bullet already exceeded the speed of sound when exiting the barrel . If Sui Xiong didn’t place a small avatar on the shell, using his divine power to maintain a vacuum around it, its lead exterior would turn into molten metal .

Once the avatar was gone, the coil responsible for the acceleration of the shell burnt out almost instantaneously .

As the shell flew out, divine power continued to stir with the surrounding air, making a trail of dazzling white light . Even if it flew far away, the white trail remained undispersed for a long time .

“The temperature is really high!” The God of Justice exclaimed . He examined it curiously before looking at the direction the shell flew .

It flew so fast he could not even see it with his divine ability . He could only dispatch an avatar and hurry towards the direction of the Rainbow Spring to see what would happen .

These past few days, Sui Xiong had been quietly preparing underground . So exactly what move had he come up with this time?

After having his spellcasting abilities sealed by the Master of Mystery, he was still able to use divine power . But compared to the already long-matured system of magic, it was very inconvenient to do so . Under such circumstances, if he made this move, exactly what kind of power would it have?

“This cannon shell is fast enough,” Morani sighed . “How fast is it exactly?”

No one knew, not even Sui Xiong himself .

He only knew that the sight his doppelganger saw was mysterious . Everything behind him turned dark red, while everything in front turned bluish-violet .

Intriguing… ah, intriguing…

Sui Xiong had studied physics in high school, but high school physics could not touch this . He didn’t remember learning it anyway . Once he was in college, all his efforts were used in learning to paint . Anything physics-related relied on the mercy of his teachers in order to pass .

So, although trans-migrators with a greater understanding of physics would be shocked speechless upon seeing such a scene, Sui Xiong only felt that it was intriguing and nice to look at .

Fortunately, there was no one in this world that would jump out and sarcastically say “Uncultured, how terrifying!” so he had no need to worry .

The shell was so fast it pierced the sky in an instant, flying out of the main plane . It then went rampaging through the void, penetrating countless worlds both big and small without losing speed . It steadfastly moved towards the front of the Ring of the World .

“What is that?” In the Rainbow Spring, the Master of Mystery felt some uncertainty as he observed the blazing white train rushing towards them . He wondered, “What does this jellyfish want to do? Is he trying to attack me?”

He was really puzzled . This thing was truly fast . But even if it was as fast as lightning and quick as a meteor, could it actually penetrate the divine barriers around the Rainbow Spring?

No; how could that be possible?

He thought about it over and over again, and could not resist laughing .

“This guy is still too young after all, ah!” He smiled and said to some of his subordinate Gods beside him . “It’s just a scorching hot energy beam strengthened by divine power . Perhaps only young people would find such a thing powerful . ”

“Disperse; it’s simply a mess!”

The God of Art and Culture, the God of Classics, and the others all left . But the God of Spellcasters stayed behind . He asked with some worry, “Your Majesty, regarding the issue of the God of Knowledge…”

“There’s nothing to worry about,” the Master of Mystery smiled as he said . “You made an appearance and fought with the God of Knowledge . We’ll take it, as we’ve made do with the situation . ”

The God of Spellcasters felt puzzled . He had some doubts that were not answered .

“We are not the only ones who want to find trouble with them . ” The body of the Master of Mystery in the Holy Kingdom was that of a tall elemental creature . Its body was made of flowing rainbow lights . There was a cunning expression in its six eyes .

“Someone wants us to fight in the vanguard while they hide behind us to pick up the loot . How can there be such a thing!” He sneered . “All in all, we have already made our move . We have gone from front stage to backstage . We just need to observe quietly and wait for both parties to fight until they’re exhausted . Then we can come out and clean up the mess . ”

The God of Spellcasters nodded his head as though he had some insight, although he did not know what His Majesty knew or what he had planned . But he believed everything had long been within his calculations .

After all, he was a great God with the duty of Wisdom!

Compared to wisdom, the duties of plotting and strategy were both too one-sided and weak to even be mentioned!

“Your Majesty, are we going to keep interfering with the spell-casting abilities of Void Mask and the God of Knowledge?” He suddenly asked . “Now that I am beginning to feel the pressure from the world continuing to increase… If this goes on, will there be any problems?”

“Of course it won’t always be sealed,” the Master of Mystery coolly said . “When this battle is over we will release the seal . If they have not fallen by then . ”

The God of Spellcasting nodded his head, no longer speaking but quietly standing beside the Master of Mystery . He accompanied him to observe that scorching hot energy beam strengthened by divine power, which was rushing towards the Rainbow Spring .

But for some reason, he felt a sense of unease .

After a while, he could not resist turning to look at his king . He only saw the rainbow lights moving calmly on his face, as though there were nothing of importance that could cause this great God to move .

He was a little relieved but still had some uneasiness .

If His Majesty had so much faith, why would he remain there, observing that beam of energy?

He was not willing to ask . He erased the thought immediately .

This was too disrespectful!

In front of the Pantheon temple, the incarnation of the God of Justice gathered near the King of Order and asked something in a low voice that only they could hear . “Hey, old man, what exactly is that?”

The King of Order turned to look at him, his silver face calm as usual .

Then he turned back without answering the question .

The God of Justice ignored the cold shoulder treatment he received, thickened his skin, and continued asking . He was really curious .

Void Mask used all his power to prepare over such a long period of time, turning himself into some weird cannon as a move? Exactly what was going on!?

He kept pestering the King of Order . Eventually, the King couldn’t take it anymore and replied, “Just wait and see for yourself . ”

“Hey! Old fogey! This answer is the same as not answering! You’re a God, a great and supreme existence, and you don’t even know what this is!”

The King of Order replied taciturnly . “I know what it is, but I also don’t know what it is . ”

“Huh?!” The God of Justice was stunned . He didn’t understand what this sentence meant .

“I know its appearance, but I do not understand the principle it is based on . ”

“There is a principle in this world that you do not understand?” the God of Justice asked in disbelief .

“Order, chaos, goodness, evil… I am only one of four Master Gods . Why do you think I know everything?” the King of Order sighed softly . “Yorgaardman, if you’re really so bored, why not research how to break through the limits of great divine power? When you reach my position, there will be many questions answered . ”

The God of Justice pouted, sitting back down discontentedly .

Telling me such things every time something big happens; this d*mned old fogey!

At this point, many Gods in the Pantheon temple were whispering amongst themselves, discussing that blazing white beam of light shooting from the main plane to the Rainbow Spring .

Everyone was wondering the purpose behind such a move . The King of Fire, who wielded the power of flame, became a favorite . At least six or seven Gods asked him if he knew anything about it .

However, the King of Fire knew nothing about that blazing white trail .

This news surprised the Gods and made them even more curious . Theoretically, the King of Fire was able to understand and control all flames in the world, and magical flames were no exception . The scorching beams of energy, even if they were strengthened by divine power, still belonged to the category of “flame . ”

But he could not explain or control that blazing white light . This news contained a very large amount of information .

As per everyone’s anticipation, that blazing white trail of light finally completed its long journey, arriving at its destination . It hit the Rainbow Spring .
