Chapter 587: Development of the Emergency
The original contamination in Opfer should have been cleaned up.

But now, beneath the ruins, the power of the Mother Goddess surged again, as if She was just the ebb and flow of the sea.

Now, the brief ebb tide is over.

Originally, Gregory's fate should have been that his body would begin to devour and twist each other, until it disappeared from the scene in the form of no longer existing in the main material plane, but the Mother Goddess once again favored him.

"Cough cough cough" Gregory was given human form again, but the whole process was not so smooth. He retched for a long time and finally spit out his fingers and a small piece of scalp.

"Ugh - I must wash my hair more often in the future. I swear!" Especially since he had long greasy hair, which stuck to his throat and mouth during the process of spitting out hair, making people feel extremely nauseous.

After assembling it for himself, Gregory held back his tears, ignored the dirt beneath him, and lay directly on the ground. This was a tradition left by the high-ranking members of the cult, and it was said that this ritual could bring one closest to Mother Earth.

After the bombing, there were really no large living or dead materials that could be fully utilized and sacrificed, so Gregory, as probably the only survivor here, began to seek other ways to please Mother Earth.

"I have it, I'll sacrifice myself!" Gregory laughed from the bottom of his heart like a child who found a toy.

"Calling the First Flame Tower. Calling the First Flame Tower. If you hear me, please answer."

The Magic Guild realized that something was wrong.

The headquarters of the Imperial branch, which had moved from the imperial capital to Württemberg, was in chaos. They received complaints from all over the place, and more and more reports were finally compiled.

Today, two important nodes were offline. After troubleshooting all technical problems, the guild reported the situation to the Senate.

In the Empire, the Forest Tower and the Mystic Tower received the news at the same time. Master Kober was furious, and he scolded the branch leader:
"It has been nearly four hours since the Imperial Army began its operation! Why are you reporting such a big thing only now? Have you forgotten about Oward?"

The chairman's forehead was covered with sweat, and his thick lips began to tremble: "We are always worried that the node is temporarily offline due to a technical failure.
"The Opfer Guild mentioned at the end that a battle would take place, and with the chief of the First Flame Tower in charge, we thought the Senate knew about it.
"How could there be an accident?" His last sentence was full of anxiety and confusion.

We can't blame this stupid guild chairman entirely. He has never seen anything like it and can't imagine what kind of situation the chief of one of the thirteen magic towers can't handle.

"Now it seems that the worst possible scenario, which is also the one that the clues point to the most, is that something has gone wrong with the First Flame Tower." Kober's face was gloomy.

In addition to the two tower chiefs who received the news, together with Rorschach, the three jointly handled the Opfer incident and asked Istani's magic tower to reinforce the First Flame Tower.

The three great wizards arrived at the nearest teleportation node one after another, and then Feuerbach opened the portal, asking Rorschach and Kober to arrive quickly.

Not far away, Richard originally planned to let the troops leave. The transfer and firing preparation of the railway artillery also required a long time and a lot of work, so he waited patiently for about an hour.

"What's wrong, General?" Franz was about to board the train when he noticed that Richard's face suddenly changed.

"Pollution. The evil aura is making a comeback and is spreading rapidly!"

There was no time to ask Franz to pass on the message now. He directly used the magic loudspeaker to shout to his subordinates: "Stop! Stop moving! Quickly deploy the artillery and prepare the number one bomb!"

What they had used up were the No. 2 bombs with high-performance gunpowder as the warhead, and they still had four No. 1 bombs left as spares.

Richard immediately re-erected the cannon and even cast a spell to assist and speed up their progress.

"Do we still want to attack Opfer? There might be friendly forces approaching the city area, and we might accidentally injure them."

"I'd rather kill someone by mistake than to follow orders." Richard was very determined, but unfortunately the reload speed was very slow. The space-time rift opened without any warning, and the "three giants" of old, middle-aged and young floated out from it, two red and one dark green wizard robes spread out in the wind. Rorschach asked his friends, "Richard, it's you. What happened?"

He was the one who sensed the user of the spell cloud, and the concentration and technique of the magic power had undoubtedly transformed him into a good brother who was comparable to high-level spellcasters.

Therefore, he proposed to the two great wizards to contact and seek help from a fourth high-level combat force.

"Rorschach!" Richard didn't bother to ask who was behind him, nor did he have time to introduce himself. He quickly told the story of Opfer and the current resurgence of pollution.

"The Imperial Army on the front line will definitely not have time to evacuate. The polluted environment and magic power are spreading rapidly. I will use these four shells to temporarily block the spread and buy time for the friendly forces to retreat."

Feuerbach and Rorschach took a quick look and guessed the principle of the special shells. However, their loading was obviously not that fast, and even with Richard's help, it would probably take nearly half an hour.

After so long, most of the soldiers on the Imperial Army's front lines could not escape their fate.

"If it's useful, we can help launch it," Cobb suggested.

"You fire?" Before Richard agreed, the chiefs of the Tower of Arcane and the Tower of Forest took the same action. They used the [Mage's Hand] or other magic to pull up several tons of shells out of thin air, then opened cracks and drilled into the portal.

The suffocating shells were quietly suspended behind them. Once they appeared on the front line, all the soldiers were shocked.

They continued to cast spells, charging two super shells and launching them at an extremely fast speed in full view of everyone.

After a while, two colorful explosion shock waves burst out from the second round.

"Let's come too." Rorschach waved his hand, and the remaining two were all wrapped in his etheric membrane and became smaller, and Richard gave them [Guided Shot].

Richard reminded: "Objects wrapped in the etheric membrane can no longer be enchanted."

"That's someone else's etheric membrane." Rorschach just asked his friend to determine the coordinates and provide guidance. Then he pulled up a series of alternating electric currents in the air, and the air was instantly filled with the smell of after a heavy rain.

The lightning and thunder moved to form alternating rails. Rorschach used the [Flying Arrow Technique] to provide the two shrunken shells with initial velocity. These iron-cased shells instantly passed through the lightning rails and were accelerated to an astonishing speed.

When they were about to reach Opfer, the aftermath of the magic tsunami created by the first two shells was still there, and the rapidly changing magic environment caused the etheric membrane to gradually become ineffective. The two shells were released to their original size while slowing down.

The third and fourth hemispheric shock waves appeared.

"Using string magic, it can barely work in an extreme magic environment. You will teleport to the front line with me now. Richard, you take the old wizard in the green robe to supervise the evacuation of the imperial soldiers on the front line. The other wizard and I will deal with the subsequent pollution and see if we can completely purify it."

"Okay. Everyone, prepare to evacuate, move to the supply station, and stand by upon arrival." After Richard gave instructions to his troops, he also opened a portal to the front line.

The magic power on the other side of the portal was still raging, so the portal itself was constantly churning. The two of them didn't care about anything else and relied on their physical endurance to force their way through.

Before leaving, Rorschach glanced back and nodded slightly to Franz, who was speechless at the beginning.

"Brother." Franz felt very oppressed, not only from the tense developments, but also from the sudden appearance of three great wizards, even though one of them was his brother.
