Crackling... snapping...
Violent lightning continued to gather in the void, and soon, a cumulonimbus rain fell along with the thunderstorm.
The engineering teams that remained in the foreign land looked up at the sky one by one, and were all very surprised. You know, since they entered the time and space gate, the weather in the foreign land has never changed, and rain and thunder have become a rare thing.
Compared to the ordinary workers who were watching the excitement, a few great wizards had solemn expressions, because they detected traces of magic in the thunderstorm...
This was not thunder, but the aftermath of a collision of magic! Just as they thought, the sky above the foreign land had become a battlefield.
This war is invisible and intangible, but equally dangerous, and can even determine the life and death of all living beings in this plane.
The areas of torn space began to become more and more, and even Lin En could not protect himself completely. Soon a tiny crack appeared in the sky above a forest, and several fire demons with flames burning all over their bodies flew out from the crack in space and time. However, before they could show their power, they were crushed to pieces by the rioting elements around them.
Similar scenes soon appeared in other areas of the foreign land. At the most dangerous moment, three space-time cracks appeared in the void at the same time!
Fortunately, this swift offensive did not last long. Although there were more than one gods invading the foreign land, without the exact coordinates, the power they could project was greatly reduced. In addition, Lin En had the advantage of geographical location and the entire divine domain was under his control. He successfully suppressed the other party's attempts again and again...
The scouts that were sent over were also killed the moment they emerged! Ten hours later, the increasingly terrifying thunderstorm in the sky finally stopped, and the confrontation on the high-dimensional level also ended.
Lin En won the victory without a doubt and prevented the opponent from breaking through the alien space defense.
But obviously this does not mean the end. Lin En knows very well that this is most likely just a test, and those gods in the main world will probably not give up so easily.
Thinking of this, Lin En separated an incarnation to return to the Eternal Star to convey the message. As for his original body, he had to stay here to guard against the other party launching another invasion.
…
Half an hour later, in the Magic Kingdom, more than forty great wizards stranded in the royal capital walked into the new magic tower which had only been built a few years ago.
This is the highest conference room in the kingdom. The entire tower is made of solid mithril, with a height of more than 800 meters, reaching into the sky. It is also the core of the royal capital's protective array. The energy supply has also been upgraded from the "old" fusion furnace to the parliament's latest developed positive and negative matter annihilation device!
Even if the Lord of Death came, it would take a lot of effort to completely break the defenses of the royal capital.
The interior of the conference room is very spacious, enough to easily accommodate tens of thousands of people. The decoration is also more advanced than the Sky Realm of the wizarding land back then. What attracts everyone's attention is the magical images projected around the conference room, which are divided into seventy-five screens.
There are bustling streets, people passing by, vast wastelands and solid barriers.
The interior scenes of the kingdom's seventy-four most important cities and the lunar outpost. Only Lin En, who has achieved absolute control over the kingdom and the moon, can do such an incredible thing.
"Speaker Lin!" After entering the conference room, dozens of great wizards saw Lin sitting in the main seat at a glance, and hurriedly saluted respectfully. Even Raphael, who had been promoted to a legendary wizard, was no exception.
Although on the surface, Raphael's current status is at the same level as Lin En, that is only because the parliament has not yet established a higher position.
Every wizard knows who is the real ruler of the current parliament. Many people even privately call Lin En the God of Magic to distinguish him from the other speakers!
In addition to these great wizards who were stranded in the royal capital, the rest of the parliamentarians had also arrived, a total of 879 great wizards and nine legendary wizards!
This is all the foundation that the parliament has accumulated during this period of time after defeating the empire and the church! However, most people are scattered all over the kingdom, and they are attending this important meeting in the form of magic projection. With the help of the power of the magic network, even if they are thousands of miles away on the moon, they can arrive here instantly! After all the parliamentarians arrived, Lin En didn't mean to waste time, so he roughly told them the intelligence from the foreign land.
"Are they going to launch an invasion so soon?" Harov couldn't help but frowned, and immediately realized the seriousness of the matter.
Although their purpose of attacking foreign lands was to build a fortress to attack the main world, and they had long anticipated the confrontation with the gods of the main world, and even considered capturing these gods to serve as a power source for the spacecraft, they did not expect that the other side would come so quickly.
"Can you confirm how many people there are... no, how many gods there are?" Aurora asked solemnly.
"Not sure, but there are at least four gods who have invaded the alien space!" Lin En said thoughtfully.
"At least four gods..." The parliamentarians present couldn't help but gasp. This was undoubtedly very bad news.
If these foreign gods fought each other, they could still defeat them one by one as before, or even capture the gods to build superluminal spacecraft and transform the opponent's combat power into their own, relying on such continuous accumulation to fight the final decisive battle with the main world.
However, this idea was shattered before it even began.
Once the gods of the main world unite, it will become particularly difficult for them to win.
"What about those alien spaceships? How far are they from us?" Vittorio asked immediately. This was also the question that the other wizards wanted to know.
"If we don't speed up or slow down, it will take about three years to reach our galaxy." Lin En stretched out his hand and tapped lightly in the air, and dots of fluorescent light appeared in the center of the conference room.
This is a simple star map, which is stitched together based on the positions of each star they observed. Although it may not be very accurate, it is enough for rough positioning.
Harof immediately saw the red dots flashing in the sky. This was the location of the alien spaceships, which had almost completed four-fifths of their journey.
Those stars that are extremely far away and marked with reddish rings are the coordinates of the locations that establish contact with the quantum communicator captured by Lin En, and are most likely the territory of this alien civilization.
"Only three years left?" Anthony sighed. He had been traveling frequently between the Eternal Star and foreign lands during this period, and his concept of time had become a little confused.
But if you think about it carefully, it did take them a lot of time to research and manufacture light-speed spacecraft and prepare for wars against foreign lands.
Harov and others also frowned. Three years sounds like a long time, but in the foreign land where the time flow rate is seven times faster, it is only five months. Now it can be said that they are facing two wars at the same time.
Whether to solve the troubles in foreign lands first and fight with the gods of the main world, or to prepare for the possible interstellar war first, this is undoubtedly a question that needs to be carefully considered.
The wizards present were quickly divided into two factions. Many wizards believed that since the gods of the main world had already set their sights on the foreign lands, they should solve this problem first and use them as energy for the new spacecraft.
"Solve? How to solve it?" a great wizard said with a sneer.
Now they only have the combat power of one god, Lin En, the Magic Star, and the main ship of the spacecraft that uses divine power can barely be counted as one, but even so it is only equivalent to the combat power of two gods.
And their enemies include at least four gods! You have to know that in the war between gods, even the legendary speakers could not find a chance to intervene. Although the antimatter cannons on the other warships could pose a threat to the gods, they could only provide some firepower support at most.

Raphael had a different idea. After thinking for a moment, he said, "No matter how many gods there are in the main world, they can't easily invade the foreign land without a confirmed coordinate. Maybe we can find a way to deal with them one by one."
This proposal undoubtedly allowed the originally clueless congressmen to see a feasible path. They were not afraid of a single god, not to mention that the arrival of a god meant leaving the original divine domain, and their strength would be greatly reduced.
"I'm afraid it's not that easy!" Lin En shook his head and felt that this suggestion was not reliable, because the gods who invaded the foreign land did not fight alone, but instead seemed to be working together.
As for the fact that leaving the divine realm would lead to a great loss of combat effectiveness, they understood it, and the gods in the main world should be even more clear about it.
In particular, they also killed the Lord of Death, a god with medium divine power. With the example of the Lord of Death, the other party will definitely be more cautious.
Vittorio also nodded. He also disagreed with going to war directly with the main world, because it was almost impossible to win this cross-border war of gods in a short period of time, and it would easily turn into a situation where both sides were enemies.
"Are you sure you can resist the invasion of these gods, Speaker Lin?" Harof asked solemnly.
He also agreed that they should first resist the invasion of the gods from the main world, keep them out, and then deal with the approaching alien fleets.
After eliminating the fear of sub-light-speed spacecraft, in Harov's eyes, the threat posed by these fleets is smaller than the large number of gods in the main world.
"This time, the other party should just be testing us. It may not be so easy next time. Even if we are prepared, it will be very difficult to defend ourselves completely." Lin En shook his head. Seeing the bitter faces of the wizards, he spoke again to comfort them. "But it is not so easy for a god to descend to another world in his true form!"
When the Lord of the Dead came to this universe, he used the sacrifice of a nine-ring legendary great lich as a bargaining chip, and their attack on foreign lands was based on the remaining will and power of the Moon Goddess as a bond, which triggered Ella's divinity and gave them the opportunity to open a rift in time and space.
"It seems that the situation is not too bad." Sanchez couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Using a foreign land as a battlefield, they were not afraid of the arrival of one or two gods. They would only be killed by them and used as energy to make superluminal spacecraft.
The energy required to send multiple powerful gods over at once would be an astronomical figure. As long as they were careful enough, they shouldn't let the other side succeed! "The other alien fleets might also come for friendly exchanges, and they may not be a threat..." said a congressman optimistically.
Lin En raised his eyebrows. This possibility could not be ruled out, but the probability was very low. After all, one of the enemy's fleets was directly annihilated by the Moon Goddess Diana.
"In short, we must be prepared for both situations and cannot pin our hopes entirely on the goodwill of the enemy!" Lynn said without comment.
A peace established under equal deterrence is a truly secure peace.
In fact, in recent years, the alchemists of the parliament have not been idle. They have once again created five galaxy-class spacecraft with a maximum speed of half the speed of light. They are also equipped with curvature engines and only lack energy to break the limit of the speed of light.
Two more interstellar spaceships are under construction, plus the three spaceships that have been built and modified previously, which means that a maximum of ten spaceships are expected to be deployed on the battlefield.
This was undoubtedly good news. They were not unprepared for this war! After arguing about who to attack first, the focus of the parliamentary discussion soon shifted to how to speed up the collection of foreign materials. This plane that was destined to collapse was not worth holding on to. If the situation was not right, evacuation was also an excellent strategy.
Lin En didn't know how the gods of the main world located the foreign lands. It was probably related to the fact that the Moon God came from the main world.
But they certainly don't have the coordinates of the Eternal Star, so even if the foreign land is lost, the other party may not be able to find it.
The space in the universe is much more stable than the other side, the energy consumption required for landing will be greater, and the connection between the two sides can be cut off by closing the space-time gate.
In this way, they are equivalent to having two spatial shields, one from the foreign land and the other from the universe.
Listening to the arguments and discussions of the parliamentarians, Lin En was thinking about another problem. With the current strength of the parliament, it is not enough to confront the main world and the disc (geometry) civilization head-on, let alone face these two threats at the same time! Unlike Harov, Lin En would not underestimate the power of a real interstellar. The time of the invasion of both sides is also very close, so can we find a way to use the intelligence gap to gain leverage...
