I Created Scientific Magic

Chapter 41: Chapter 38 This time, I’m afraid I’ll have to apologize to you (Please follow)

“Multiple-Frost Blades!”

In a street to the north of the harbor town, Johnny spread his hands, and the dense diamond-shaped blades of ice quickly appeared in the void, flying towards the obstructing guards like locusts.

Accompanied by a series of wails, several guards who failed to dodge were killed on the spot, but more soldiers wielding shields had already surrounded them from behind.

Johnny clenched his silver teeth, drew his sword to parry a guard’s long spear, took the opportunity to charge forward, and with a spin of his blade, he severed the opponent’s neck, spraying blood everywhere. At the same time, another guard swung his long knife at Johnny.

The sharp gleam of the blade appeared before his eyes, but continuous fighting for half an hour had already exhausted the young girl’s physical strength and magic power; he no longer had the ability to turn back and block the incoming long knife.

Fortunately, at that moment, a fierce camel beast charged out, instantly knocking the guard to the ground, and then Bai Ge, sitting on the camel, immediately blew the wooden whistle in his hand.

The flock of gray crows hovering over the harbor town immediately seemed to be guided, throwing themselves at those shield soldiers like mad.

Sharp claws and beaks scratched and tore at unprotected faces and necks, but after all, they were just birds the size of a palm, and no matter how hard they tried, it was difficult to inflict fatal damage.

Taking advantage of this gap, the two of them had already turned to another direction, with Bai Ge’s face growing paler and his hands weakly propped on a camel, relying on it to carry him forward.

Johnny glanced at him with concern and let out a silent sigh.

“It seems I have to say sorry to you this time, Bai Ge!”

“I didn’t expect that not only did we fail to rescue Carl, but we’ve also fallen into the Church’s trap…”

Johnny conjured a fireball to temporarily repel the pursuing guards, and regret was already taking hold of his heart.

He was not annoyed about the act of rescuing Lynn, but he regretted dragging Bai Ge into this.

A few days ago, upon learning that the Church had captured a devil believer and planned to execute him after the Sabbath, Johnny had the idea of staging a jailbreak.

But just by his own power, it was indeed too weak; there was no chance of success. Bai Ge’s spiritual magic was very useful in this situation, as it could control creatures to scout for information, create chaos, or distract the enemy.

With this in mind, Johnny had planned the entire rescue operation, first having Bai Ge send gray crows with kindling to set fire to critical places like the granary to attract the attention of the guards and create chaos, and then break into the prison to rescue the person.

However, once the action truly began, Johnny realized how badly he had underestimated the situation. The guards of the harbor town were already waiting in full readiness and reacted very quickly.

They had run headfirst into a trap set by the Church…

“No, it’s me… I chose to come,” Bai Ge said through clenched teeth, as he trembled in fear atop the camel beast.

He was extremely afraid of death, but he was also clear that it was Lynn who had voluntarily sacrificed himself to cover their retreat, allowing them to escape the castle by a fluke.

So when Bai Ge learned that Johnny planned to risk a rescue for Lynn, he resolutely followed.

The two young witches looked at each other, seeing the determination in each other’s eyes. Johnny’s grip on the sword tightened again, and he encouraged,

“Their assault has begun to weaken; we may still have a chance to escape.”

Bai Ge nodded, tears swirling in her eyes but still she brought the wooden flute to her lips and blew into it once more.

The originally overwhelming flock of grey crows that had covered the sky had dwindled to around a hundred after several rounds of assault, barely enough to fulfill the task of scouting for information—they could no longer even distract the enemy.

Almost all the pressure of face-to-face combat had fallen upon Johnny’s shoulders.

As if her prayers had been heard, the number of guards encircling them was gradually decreasing, and their aggression had noticeably lessened; no one was trying to charge at them in a do-or-die manner anymore.

However, Johnny’s expression grew heavier and heavier—according to Bai Ge’s scouting information, they were surrounded by soldiers with only one path left open.

If they deviated from this path, they would be greeted by continuous shield walls and formations of swords, through which even the most explosive Fireball Technique could hardly break.

Was the enemy toying with them, or were they planning a concerted encirclement?

Johnny didn’t know, but she was aware that if they stopped, they would die—running might still offer a glimmer of hope, however faint that hope might be.

At least… at least she had to get Bai Ge out.

As the girl was thinking this, Bai Ge, riding on the camel creature, suddenly began to tremble violently, and she cried out in terror, “It’s Anluoke, the Archbishop of the Nordland Territory, he’s here himself, right… right on our right!”

Johnny paused for a moment, then turned her head to see a dazzling white light rushing towards them at high speed.

This was the Second Circle Divine Arts—”Holy Light Shock.”

“Frost Curtain!” Johnny only had time to raise her right hand to create a crystal wall of ice in front of her, but the horrifying white light was already upon her!

The hastily cast First Circle protective magic spell proved particularly fragile against the formidable power of the Divine Arts, bursting apart in just a second or two. The immense force of the impact immediately sent Johnny and Bai Ge, who was seated on the camel creature, flying.

Johnny hit the ground hard, pain shooting through her heart, a trickle of fresh blood flowing from the corner of her mouth, but she didn’t have time to care about the pain in her body. She clumsily clambered up from the ground, positioning herself in front of Bai Ge, her eyes fixed intently on the direction from which the white light had come.

A series of steady footsteps approached from afar, and amid the scattered ice crystals and dust, the figure of an old man dressed in a gold-embroidered robe flanked by a group of priests appeared before them.

Merely standing there, he exuded an indescribable sense of oppression…

Johnny’s pupils shrank. Although the person’s appearance had greatly changed and the age didn’t match, she recognized him instantly from his status, attire, and Bai Ge’s indication.

The man before them was the Archbishop… Anluoke!

Visions of the chase in Wuer Town were still vivid in her mind—their adversary’s strength and terror were indescribable, utterly beyond the capability of a few Wizard Apprentices to confront.

What plunged Johnny deeper into despair was the appearance of several figures on their left; the one in the lead was a young man with a solemn face, who from his attire seemed to be a priest from some church.

The forces from both sides quickly formed a ring, trapping the two of them in the middle.

At this moment, Johnny and Bai Ge were like birds trapped in a cage, their possibility of escape completely cut off!
