[Chapter 455: Hobbes, the God of Magic]
“So, you met Hobbes again?”
Sitting in the ‘main hall’ of the Megatron Helicarrier, the 360-degree panoramic ‘floor-to-ceiling windows’ made of transparent metal materials around make people in the hall feel like they are flying high in the sky.
The space of this main hall is quite open, so it is no problem for two Cybertronians to duel here, and there is even enough space to arrange the audience seats.
To put it bluntly, this place is specially prepared for David, the King of Winter, so that he can meet with his subordinates and discuss things here.
After David really set foot on the Megatron, this place was more used as a place to enjoy the scenery, until today when Laura brought her companions to find it together (Flash helped to open the door).
After listening to Laura’s description, David also became curious: “Hobbes’ temperament and personality have changed significantly?”
“Yes!” Laura thought of Hobbs’s firm statement that no one could leave, but she took her teammates to use the emergency anti-transmission device to escape. She didn’t know what Hobbs’ expression would be at that time. It was a pity that she didn’t see it with her own eyes: “My partners and I were not in good condition at that time, so we didn’t fight to find out more.”
“When you are in a bad condition and facing an unknown enemy, it is the right choice to retreat immediately.” David looked at the other people. Kara was standing by the ‘glass wall’ with Alice, Catherine and Elsa, watching the scenery outside – in addition to seeing the clouds and the land in the distance, you can also see part of the hull of this aerial carrier.
For these people, such a huge warship flying in the sky is a very magical creation. Several people were stunned, and their eyes, which were not small to begin with, became bigger.
Retracting his gaze, David became interested in Hobbs.
From Laura’s description, it is likely that Hobbs was “possessed” by a Sarkhan. What exactly happened? Who was the Sarkhan who possessed Hobbs?
David thought that this question would be difficult to answer in a short time.
Unexpectedly, he soon saw the answer.
“Hobbs?”
“Really!”
“I really didn’t expect this…”
Elsa, Alice and Catherine were full of question marks, wondering why they could see the giant projection of Hobbs here. Laura and
Kara, who knew the inside story, were surprised by the overlap of the two identities.
David stood in the hall of Megatron, watching the Winter Army, which had been rushing south and finally encountered trouble when it fought all the way to the gate of the temple. In front of the magic released by the huge “Hobbs”, the Tilan Knights and the Winter Legion finally couldn’t kill at will.
“It turns out that the guide behind Hobbs is the God of Magic. No wonder he said those words so arrogantly at the beginning.”
According to the information David has, the “manipulator” behind the God of Magic is the Sarkhan with the top combat power in the lunar outpost.
It is said that this Sakan man obtained powerful magic power from other worlds. After confirming that the planet Brunnia has arcane energy, this Sakan man took on the burden of rectifying and controlling Brunnia’s magic power. The
God of Magic was born.
Under the control of the God of Magic, Brunnia’s magic power was restrained, and magic was also strictly controlled, which limited the powerful and convenient ability of magic.
David had previously considered this issue. Attacking the temple might lead to the God of Magic, so he would think about the right person to “take over” the authority left by the God of Magic when necessary.
But he didn’t expect that the God of Magic actually ran into Hobbes’ body.
“You said that Hobbes is in the desert of the Anera continent?”
“Yes.”
David looked at the huge projection that could release various spells with a wave of his hand, causing the Winter Army to fall into trouble, and casually opened a golden portal.
The other side of the portal was not Winter City or the Anera continent, but the battlefield under the aerospace mothership.
David took a step forward without any extra movements, and the sky still rained down large swathes of holy light.
Under the light that was obviously different from the sun, the Winter Legion and the Dilan Knights, who were in a bitter battle, recovered to their peak state.
However, David did not order his soldiers to continue to attack the temple “protected” by the God of Magic, but ordered Sutton to withdraw his troops.
Although with the strength of the Dilan Knights and the Winter Legion, it may not be impossible to break the defense of the “God of Magic” if they continue to attack, after all, the God of Magic in front of them is not the real God, but a kind of magic performed by many priests in the temple.
As long as they continue to attack, the priests will not be able to hold on!
However, this kind of strong attack will inevitably cause casualties. Now that the resurrection monument has not been built in Winter City, David is not prepared to let his soldiers make fearless sacrifices.
If they have to sacrifice, it’s fine. Now there is a simpler solution, and there is no need to fight to the death with the opposite side.
“The Knights will temporarily station outside the temple and wait for my order.”
Looking at the gorgeous palace group in front of him, David curled his lips with disdain after giving the order: “It turns out that in the previous decisive battle, I wanted to summon the God of Magic on the battlefield.”
Compared to the battlefield where mages need to cooperate with temporary magic arrays, the temple has a ready-made array. Priests and mages only need to stay where they should be and infuse magic power to summon the projection of the God of Magic.
Although the summoned projection of the God of Magic cannot exert its full strength, in the eyes of the high priest of the temple, the powerful force is enough to destroy any enemy.
The temple never thought that opponents like David and Winter City would appear on the Brunnia continent.
Of course, from a deeper level, the conflict between David and the temple is inevitable. Even if the temple does not take action against the Kingdom of Tiran, David will bring a large army to destroy this organization.
Because the God of Magic is a Sakhan who is extremely hostile to the Protoss, the temple itself is a chess piece arranged by the God of Magic on Brunnia, and he happens to be the planetary life targeted by them. There
is no possibility of reconciliation between the two sides. If you count what the temple did to the Kingdom of Tiran, the destruction of the temple is inevitable.
The Winter Army went all the way south until they killed to the “door” of the temple, and the two sides did not communicate at all.
This has never happened in the history of human wars in Brunnia.
In the past, when wars broke out between human kingdoms, no matter what the reason was, who was right? In short, they would not officially start fighting unless they argued with each other for a few days.
Sometimes, the armies of both sides confronted each other for several months, and they argued with each other in various ways, but in the end, they not only did not fight, but also reached a peace agreement. There
has never been a situation like this, where they fought to the death without saying a word.
Even when the Templar Knights were beaten to the point of having no power to fight back when facing the Knights of Tiran, these crazy believers of the Temple did not have the slightest intention of surrendering and begging for mercy.
David did not know what the Temple said to these knights, priests, and mages when the war started, but their determination also strengthened David’s idea: absolutely no one should be left alive!
Before that, he needed to solve the trouble of the God of Magic first.
“Are you going to get rid of the God of Magic first?”
“Yes.”
David gave the order and returned to the Megatron. Laura and Sofia saw that the Winter Army in the holographic image could retreat in an orderly manner, and guessed that it was David who gave the order.
He asked his men to retreat, obviously preparing to eliminate the opponent’s biggest support first. What he was going to do was obvious.
“Are you sure enough?”
“Of course!” David never did anything he was not sure of. He was always a very cautious person: “Although this projection does not represent the full strength of the God of Magic, even if the real body is ten times stronger than the projection, it is not a strong enemy for me.” “But
, there are more gods worshipped in the temple, right?” Sophia was still worried that David would be beaten up: “If you go to trouble the God of Magic, won’t other gods help you?”
“The real bodies of these gods are not all powerful… According to the information I have, they are scattered all over the continent of Anera at this time, and they are not gathered together.”
“What if they have special means of communication?”
“I know what you are worried about!” David raised his hand and touched Sophia’s head: “I didn’t say I would go alone.”
“Ah, then I won’t worry.”
David is indeed strong, far surpassing many companions in Winter City.
But this does not mean that he has to solve everything by himself. So many partners and friends are not called at this time? When should he wait?
At this moment, it is a great opportunity to call friends!
“Steve, Clark, Optimus Prime, they will go with me.”
“I will go too.” Laura will certainly not miss this feast.
“And me.” Kara didn’t want to be ignored, and she felt that her strength was not bad and she could help.
As for the other teammates of Laura, although they also spoke up to avoid being ignored, they could only act as cheerleaders on the side.
Even Elsa, with her current strength, could not participate in this level of battle.
“Go back to Winter City first, and then use the teleportation device to go to the continent of Anera and kill the God of Magic Hobbes!” When David said this, he felt strange, but when he thought of the identity of that person in the DC universe, he suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment: “So that’s the case, so the God of Magic chose Hobbes.”
If David guessed correctly, the God of Magic hoped that Hobbes would win the final victory and successfully obtain the power of Brunia.
In this way, he can seize Hobbes’ body and take this power for himself!
“No wonder Hobbes jumped out immediately after his development went astray… This is an unexpected gain. I wonder if the other leaders have made similar arrangements?”
