Chapter 1428 Epoch Change! New God's Encounters 5 (Page 12)

Three chapters in one!

When the three-nation alliance truly exerted its power, the parliaments of the various nations ultimately could not withstand it completely and began to collapse under that even stronger force.

Normally, the high and mighty magicians in the eyes of the common people were now falling from the sky in large numbers, like raindrops.

Suppressed by the forbidden spells of the Three Demon Empires, these mages were unable to effectively mobilize their power.

Having lost their prized magic, these mages were no different from those they considered lowly on the brutal battlefield.

Even with a physical body several times or even dozens of times stronger, when faced with the fire meteors falling from the sky, the huge ice shards rising from the ice surface, and the most straightforward and brutal attacks of the golden giant god of the Tia Empire, one can only last for a hundred percent longer than an ordinary person.

Of all the mages who couldn't hold on, those pierced by ice shards fared relatively well; at least their bodies were preserved to some extent, which was a way of giving them a final shred of dignity.

In comparison, the mages affected by the fire meteor or the golden giant suffered far worse fates, with not even their basic remains preserved. They were truly reduced to ashes and left with no trace of their bodies.

Faced with such a disadvantage, both the archmages who maintained the rhombus structure and those who still wanted to turn the tide in the mirror maze showed the same desolate expression.

"It's over..."

"In the end... we still underestimated the power that the three great empires have developed over the years..."

The archmages were very pessimistic.

However, even more pessimistic things are yet to come.

The 5th Age of the Divine Calendar, year 008653.

Aurora Calendar 2453.

After the parliaments of the various countries gritted their teeth and persevered for another three years, the three-nation alliance finally finished preparing their trump card.

The three imperial mages, who had been launching a fierce attack, all stopped simultaneously, giving the surviving mages in the council of nations a glimmer of hope.

The mages in the council of nations thought that the mages of the three-nation alliance had been maintaining a high level of magical output for too long, and that they could no longer sustain it.

"If this is the case……"

A barely perceptible hint of excitement flickered in the eyes of several archmages.

Unfortunately, their hopes, which had just begun to rise, were ruthlessly extinguished by the opposing side in the next moment.

hum!

As the mages of the Three Kingdoms Alliance once again methodically sketched out unique magical patterns, a large number of symbols that had never appeared before suddenly emerged in the space surrounding the mages of the Council of Nations.

These symbols appeared simple and unadorned, without even emitting any outward fluctuations, yet in an instant they formed a very complete system, trapping the magicians of the council of nations within it like a cage.

This is a considerable undertaking; the area covered by the prison is so vast that it can rival the land area of ​​any nation in the parliaments of various countries.

The moment the cage was fully formed, the expressions of all the magicians in the councils of various countries changed drastically.

"This is... the Withered Demon..."

Before the archmage in the rhombus structure could finish speaking, he felt the surrounding trials begin to wither.

That is not the demise of magic.

The surrounding magic was passively put into an inert state under the influence of the cage's effect, a state that even a great archmage would find difficult to mobilize.

Even archmages have difficulty mobilizing them.

It's easy to imagine what would happen to those mages around who weren't even Grand Magisters.

……

The mages of the various kingdoms' councils, who were already struggling under the suppression of the Three Demon Empires' magic array, have now completely lost all ability to resist.

Without warning, a large number of mages who were barely hovering in the sky suddenly fell from the sky like dumplings being dropped into a pot.

The feeling... was like a light bulb that was already flickering suddenly having its power switched off, instantly losing all its energy supply and going completely black out.

This was an even more powerless state than being suppressed by the magic circle before. Those mages who couldn't sense the magic even felt as if they had just turned back into ordinary people for a moment.

Of course, their feelings now are irrelevant; without the support of magic, they are destined not to survive this war.

"No!"

"help me!"

"I don't want to die!"

"what!"

In an instant, all sorts of wails and cries arose.

Without their magic, the mages at this moment behaved worse than even the most determined ordinary people. The various ugly behaviors they displayed made it impossible to associate them with the elegant mages they had been before.

Indeed... how many people can truly remain calm when faced with the terrifying prospect of life and death?

Moreover, those magicians were previously located tens or even hundreds of millions of kilometers above the sky. Having lost their magic, at this altitude, they wouldn't even need to fall onto the ice; the extreme natural conditions would be enough to kill them.

……

The magicians in the parliaments of the various nations have completely collapsed, and more and more magicians are dying from the loss of their magic power without anyone's intervention.

Fall to death?

For magicians who can soar high and unleash immense power with every gesture, what a niche way to die it is.

Seeing that the enemy opposite them had lost more than half of their men in just a dozen breaths, the mages on the Three Kingdoms Alliance side showed an expression that was both excited and unnatural.

Excited by the enemy's defeat, they would eventually become the masters of this continent.

Even knowing that there were two other competitors in the alliance, it didn't stop these mages from imagining a bright future.

It felt unnatural, of course, because this was the first time they had seen the true effect of the magic circle after designing it, which resembled the effect of withered magic lacquer.

For a moment, the mindset that had been somewhat carried away by the peak of the magic tide was suddenly pulled back by this extreme contrast.

Many mages suddenly realized that if they couldn't solve the problem of the Demon-Slaying Period, when it truly arrived, their fate would probably be no better than that of the mages falling before them.

But soon, the joy of becoming one of the three rulers of the continent of Frantis temporarily dispelled the worries of the magicians of the three kingdoms alliance.

The coming of the withering demon period is a future matter, but that doesn't stop them from enjoying the victory and glory of the present moment.

Even if their future fate is not good, the sense of accomplishment they gain now, and everything they can enjoy in the years to come, is real and tangible.

……

The 5th Age of the Divine Calendar, year 008660.

Aurora Calendar 2460.

After several years of struggle, most of the mages in the council of nations had perished, leaving only a very few powerful mages and the archmages who served as leaders still struggling.

Faced with this scene, the Three Kingdoms Alliance, which had been preparing for action, could no longer hold back. After weakening the effect of the magic array that imitated the withered demon stage, the three empires sent their respective magicians into the array to exterminate all the remaining magicians of the Council of Nations!

From the moment the war began, the three-nation alliance never intended to spare the lives of the enemy's mages; their goal was to eliminate them completely and leave no future troubles!

After several years of turmoil, the mages in the magic circle, though still barely holding on, had long since reached their limits.

Faced with the enemies who had gathered their strength and then stormed in, they naturally had little ability to resist.

Even the few surviving archmages only managed to hold out a little longer under the enemy's siege before being beheaded in resentment and despair.

boom……

A great mage's head, with its eyes wide open, luckily fell onto the ice, and his body followed a moment later, landing not far away.

Compared to other dead mages, this archmage left behind a final trace of his existence.

Looking around, the area spanning billions of kilometers had already been shattered in the great war between the mages.

The frozen sea surface was broken and fragmented, but there was no seawater beneath the broken ice, because the terrifying ice had frozen the seawater to the bottom.

The distant coastlines, also affected by the ice, were shattered into a cliff stretching for countless kilometers due to the freezing effect.

The damage caused by fire meteorites is also not to be underestimated, with huge impact craters, some tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of kilometers in diameter, scattered across the ice surface and coastline.

The ice melts under terrifyingly high temperatures, only to freeze again under replenished low temperatures, creating a unique "hot spring" through repeated cycles.

Needless to say, the land along the coastline was directly melted into huge lava lakes, which then froze into black volcanic rock at low temperatures.

……

The attacks of the Tia Empire's mages were all focused on the golden giant, and the golden giant's attacks were only aimed at the mages flying in the air. So it did not have much impact on the surrounding environment, at most it permanently changed the climate of this area.

Judging from the results, the three-nation alliance won a great victory.

But they weren't completely unharmed either.

Although the Three Kingdoms Alliance is powerful, the mages of the Parliament of All Nations are not to be trifled with. Even if they cannot reverse the course of the war, they can still inflict effective damage on the mages of the Three Kingdoms Alliance.

Therefore, during the battle between the two sides, many mages from the council of the various countries died, and many mages from the three-nation alliance were also killed. The overall casualty ratio was roughly three to one.

At a glance, among the surviving mage corpses on the entire battlefield, besides the majority of members of the councils of various countries, there were also quite a few mage corpses from the Three Kingdoms Alliance.

Even among the mages who were enjoying the joy of victory high in the sky, many of them showed visible injuries.

But none of this stopped them from celebrating.

Meanwhile, with the confirmation that almost all the magicians in the parliaments of the various countries had been wiped out, the atmosphere within the three-nation alliance was also subtly changing.

……

The 5th Age of the Divine Calendar, year 008700.

Aurora Calendar 2500.

The triumphant mages of the Three Kingdoms Alliance returned to the continent of Frantis, riding high on their victory.

The announcement was made from a high and mighty position to the unsuspecting lower-ranking legions who were still fighting for the parliaments of various nations.

The general idea is that those who follow the rules live, and those who resist perish!

The Three Kingdoms Alliance's attitude towards hostile mages was naturally to exterminate them. They were not comfortable taking them in after their surrender, mainly because those mages had the ability to cause them trouble.

The Three Kingdoms alliance did not need to ruthlessly kill the members of these lower-level legions.

In any case, without those mages, these lower-level legions would have no ability to rebel even if they wanted to, as the mages of the Three Kingdoms Alliance could suppress them at any time.

In addition, these lower-level legions are numerous, and they represent the populations of various countries. Of course, it is impossible to kill them all, as that would be detrimental to their subsequent takeover of the territories of various countries.

Upon suddenly learning of their defeat, the lower-ranking legions were all somewhat bewildered and at a loss.
