In anime, especially in the Gundam series of anime depicting futuristic warfare, there is often a scene where a huge space battleship is about to fire its main cannon, and the energy gathers in front of the gun door into a huge ball of light. The enemy exclaimed: "The high-energy reaction ahead, confirmed to be the Mega particle cannon, emergency evasion!"

What Iyun saw now was a bit like in the cartoon, where 178 cardinals sat in a circle around a magic circle the size of a football field, chanting incantations in their mouths, but unfortunately they were too far away to hear what they were chanting.

In the center of the magic array, there was a ball of light that was gathering, and the energy of the ball of light was very large, although Yi Yun was several miles away and looked through a telescope, he could also feel the mana fluctuations around that ball of light.

Yi Yun couldn't help but wonder, "What are they doing here?"

Ah San, who led the way for Yiyun, shook his head, obviously not knowing what these cardinal archbishops were playing.

An ominous premonition rose in Yi Yun's heart, he turned his head and said to the girls who followed him, "Is it possible...... What kind of strategic destruction magic are they unleashing?"

Chen Yuanyuan nodded with a serious face: "It's possible, judging from the energy scale of this spell, the power is indeed extremely huge. ”

Everyone was shocked, but no one could confirm the problem, so they could only watch quietly. This spell lasted really long, 178 cardinal archbishops kept chanting the spell for three whole days, and Yi Yun and the others also watched it for three days, their small merchant ship had actually been discovered by the British fleet, but they were flying the British flag. So the British didn't bother with them, and let them keep watching from a distance. But they couldn't get closer, and several warships raised their flags menacingly at them, forcing them to see only a few miles away.

In the past three days, the ball of light in the magic array has become bigger and bigger, the energy has become more and more turbulent, and the mana has fluctuated, as if it is about to break through the magic array and jump out. Many were already sweating profusely. Several of them turned sallow and crumbling, but they all gritted their teeth and held on.

Yi Yun and they were not in the mood to stay awake with them, but switched shifts with the girls to monitor.

On the morning of the fourth day. Iyun woke up. After washing, we came to the bow of the boat. Changed shifts with Chen Yuanyuan, who was in charge of monitoring the magic array last night: "Sister Yuanyuan, go to sleep, now I will monitor the magic array." ”

Chen Yuanyuan shook his head and said, "I'm not busy going to sleep." It feels like the magic array is about to reach a tipping point, and I want to see what tricks they're up to. ”

Yi Yun turned his head to look, and sure enough, even Yi Yun, a layman who didn't understand magic at all, could see that the magic array had reached a critical point, and the formation lines drawn on the ground had become weaker and weaker, obviously unable to restrain the surging mana anymore, and the cardinal archbishop was already half tired, and the remaining half was chanting a spell in his spirit......

After looking at it for a while, even this half of the people could not hold on, the cardinal archbishops finally stopped chanting the incantation, and the people who had just been tired and lying down now all got up again, and with all their last strength, they lifted up in both directions together, and prayed devoutly to the heavens......

I only heard the sound of energy flowing from the island, and the huge mana ball that had been gathered began to slowly rise into the air, and the cardinals began to have fanatical expressions on their faces, and then an old guy wearing a high hat walked out, looking at his dress, there was no doubt that he was the Pope.

Yi Yun was taken aback, it turned out that the Pope was here in person, this is too outrageous, right?

I saw the Pope raise a scepter and wave it towards the north, and the huge energy ball flew out towards the north with a "whew", its flight speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, it had disappeared into the northern sky, and I don't know where it flew.

"That's it?" Yi Yun was dissatisfied: "We watched here for three days, and we watched it for three days, trying to see what this great magic looked like, why did it disappear in an instant? ”

Chen Yuanyuan was also a little surprised: "I really can't understand it, they used so many people, so much time, and exhausted their energy to send out a large-scale spell, and it was gone in a flash...... Westerners are really incomprehensible. ”

The two were complaining, but they saw Ah San exclaiming: "That...... The direction in which the ball of light flew...... It's Kolkata. ”

"Oh?" Yi Yun and Chen Yuanyuan glanced at each other, and their hearts were shocked at the same time, and they hurriedly said, "Hurry up and sail, let's go to Calcutta to have a look." ”

The small merchant ship hurriedly set sail, but behind them, the British fleet also set sail, and they brought 178 cardinals and popes into the battleship, and also sailed towards Calcutta, because the small merchant ship that Iwan was riding on was very slow, and the British fleet quickly overtook them and sailed to the front.

Iyun urged Ah San to speed up, followed the British fleet, and soon after, arrived in Calcutta.

As soon as they arrived at the seashore of Calcutta, everyone was stunned by the scene in front of them, only to see a sea of fire in front of them, and the whole city of Kolkata was engulfed in majestic fire, and the fire rushed up more than ten feet high, and the billowing black smoke reached into the sky...... They couldn't really see the city because of the smoke and fire obscuring their view, but they could see thousands of charred corpses on the edge of the docks alone...... Everywhere there were charred Indians, men and women, old and young, and even the sea sand seemed to be boiled by the fire, emitting white sand smoke.

In the center of such a purgatory-like fire, there was no way for anyone to survive, even the walls made of stone were burned by the flames, and the human beings were burned to the point that there was not even a trace of ash left.

Kolkata, a megacity of one million people, is also difficult to find a way to live.

Yi Yun was dumbfounded, and Chen Yuanyuan couldn't close his mouth when he opened his mouth wide.

Yi Yun said: "Sure enough, this is the so-called strategic destruction spell - Purgatory. ”

Chen Yuanyuan nodded: "It's terrible...... Launching from a great distance, burning down a city from a long distance, the power is terrifying. ”

Iyun thought to himself: This Nima is comparable to an atomic bomb, isn't it so excessive? This is even more cheating than me doing futuristic technology, what kind of perverted guy designed the game "Knights of the Cute Girl"? No...... The three major game systems are originally game systems made with futuristic technology...... It's not just a matter of game design, it's also about the technological prowess of different countries in 3232 AD. Due to the relatively poor national strength of Fusang, by 3232 A.D., science and technology had fallen behind, so their "Meng Niang's Ambition" was relatively small and weak. And the technology of the Celestial Empire obviously surpasses that of Fusang, so the various skills of the Great Meng Kingdom and the power of the sixth-order monsters are relatively strong, as for the "Knights of the Cute Girl", it is obviously a game developed by the European Union, it seems that in 3232 AD, the scientific and technological level of the European Union is still above the Celestial Empire, no wonder the "Industrial Revolution" is so powerful, and people still have this kind of large-scale magic similar to cheating...... It seems that even if you use the big transfer system left by the founding emperor of the Great Meng Kingdom, it will not be so easy to win the "Knights of the Moe Girl".

At this time, Ah San, who was beside them, screamed miserably, fell to his knees on the deck, and cried: "Ah, father, mother, and sister are all in Calcutta, and ...... Mahatma Gandhi ...... "Almost all the crew members of the ship wept bitterly, it turned out that their homes were in Calcutta, and they all had families at home, and their families would definitely not survive such a big fire, so everyone was very sad."

Yi Yun looked at the fire in his heart, and thought: If the Shanghai Oasis is also burned like this, I will be as crazy as them, many of my sisters are in the Shanghai Oasis, no, this evil magic must be stopped.

It was just when there was a gloomy fog that a British destroyer sailed towards the small merchant ship, and Yi Yun secretly screamed in his heart: It can't be that I was discovered, right?

I saw that the destroyer approached the side of the ship, and several British soldiers jumped up and reprimanded Ah San and the others in English, it turned out that they did not find Yi Yun, but came to demonstrate, and Yi Yun heard them say: "See how powerful we are? In the future, you Indians will obediently listen to us and be our slaves, and if there is any more non-violent non-cooperation movement, we will burn all the cities of India into purgatory." ”

Ah San and the others dared to be angry but did not dare to speak, so they had to let the British soldiers show off their might.

Baidi Tanbo, who was following Yi Yun, glanced at Yi Yun and asked him if he wanted to kill these British soldiers, Yi Yun shook his head and said: "Don't startle the snake, it doesn't make much sense whether these soldiers are killed or not, our goal is to stop the Cardinal from casting a strategic destruction spell, and not to expose our whereabouts." ”

Only then did Baidi Tanbo shrink back into the shadows.

I saw the group of British soldiers laughing and scolding triumphantly on the boat for a while, kicking a few more Indians and slapping a few times on Ah San's face, and then jumping back to their destroyer with a smile, Yi Yun heard them talking as they walked: "Purgatory is really amazing, hahaha......"

"This time, the cardinal archbishop and the pope made a move, and it was really powerful, Calcutta was destroyed by us in an instant, and the Indians would not dare to rebel. ”

"In the future, India will be able to maintain peace and stability for a long time. ”

When Yi Yun heard these words, he thought to himself: Sure enough, that magic is the strategic destruction magic purgatory that Joan of Arc mentioned. ”

He pricked up his ears to listen again, only to hear the British soldiers laugh and say: "Although this magic is powerful, the disadvantage is that it is too difficult to activate, the cardinals will have to rest for at least several months before they can launch it a second time, and if they are launched a few more times, these cardinals will all be exhausted, and they will have to cultivate a new batch of ...... Therefore, the Holy See strictly controls the use of this spell, and will not easily use ...... when facing a national enemy" (To be continued.) )
