I Created Scientific Magic

Lynn's battle plan was very simple, which was to use their firepower advantage to crush or cripple the enemy before the two sides could formally engage!

Never giving the enemy a chance to come close…

"The goal I'm giving you is to end each battle with zero casualties, if possible!" Lynn said decisively.

Zero casualties?

Lowen was utterly dumbfounded; anyone who had ever experienced war would never say something so foolish.

But after carefully considering Lynn's tactics, Lowen suddenly realized that it might not be impossible.

That thing called a cannon, he had seen it at the Alchemy Research Institute. Although its power was not as strong as that of the Magic Crystal Cannons, its range was much greater, and most importantly, it could be mass-produced quickly.

The only trouble was that artillerymen usually needed some basic knowledge of mathematics. They could only start by selecting suitable personnel from the Wizard Apprentices, and they still hadn't completed the assembly until now.

If there were a hundred such cannons, bombarding wildly, without the interference of an enemy cardinal-level opponent, it indeed might be possible to eliminate the opponent outside the visibility range…

Lowen couldn't help feeling that war could actually be fought in such a way.

"But what if the enemy sends Cavalry to flank us from the side?" Lowen asked hastily, after some hesitation, pointing out a potential flaw in the tactic.

Lynn looked at Lowen with a strange gaze and said wordlessly, "What do you think our alchemy armored vehicles are for?"

Right, Lowen suddenly realized they had that trump card. His expression immediately turned excited, imagining the enemy's cavalry charging forward and then being crushed into debris by the swiftly moving alchemy armored vehicles.

"In that case, at least there's no need to worry too much about the frontal battlefield," Lowen said, finally letting go of the anxiety he had been holding.

Previously, upon learning that Wizard Land was going to war with the Church, Lowen had spent sleepless nights worrying. After all, the gap in conventional strength was just too great, but now it seemed that the situation might not be as bad as he thought.

Lynn was not so optimistic because all these assumptions were based on the enemy being a regular army. In this world with Divine Arts and magic, anything could happen.

As he was thinking, Lynn's expression suddenly froze, and he frowned slightly as if sensing something.

"Lord Lynn, what's wrong?" Lowen asked cautiously.

"It's intelligence from the Kingdom of Hadlata," Lynn's eyes glittered.

Back when William's trusted subordinates stayed in Yiyeta, he had planted a spy among these people. Although William was truly capable and these shipbuilders could only be described as fiercely loyal, with their families held hostage,

the so-called loyalty often only means that the price for betrayal isn't high enough. He offered a price they couldn't refuse, and unexpectedly, the time had come for them to play their part.

"Just as I thought, that William isn't the type to sit still; he has already noticed the anomalies in the Mist Sea," Lynn continued.

The anxiety Lowen had just put to rest skyrocketed once more, and he eagerly inquired about the full story, wondering if the war was about to start immediately.

Lynn shook his head, saying that William would probably not report until he had secured a way to locate Wizard Land. Otherwise, based on his actions of smuggling supplies into Wizard Land, dying a hundred times would not be enough!

However, this trouble has dragged on for so long, it's time to deal with it!

...

Meanwhile, in a mansion outside the capital city of Hadarata, Kodi cautiously made his way into this wizard's stronghold.

He was here on a mission for William, but Kodi himself did not hold much hope, as even the attendants within the mansion were under surveillance and could not obtain any information, showing that these wizards were already on guard.

As expected, upon entering the mansion, the male wizard named Orlando did not allow him to wander around but directly took him to the parlor.

Kodi could only steel himself and discuss the issue of profit sharing with the other party. Orlando and the others had already made a concession previously, and just bringing up the old matter again without being directly kicked out was already fortunate.

However, contrary to his expectations, although Orlando and his colleagues were quite passionate in their response, they focused on the discussion of risk and reward equivalency.

Could it be that, as Lord William had said, Wizard Land had fallen into great chaos and they now utterly depended on them?

As Kodi pondered to himself, the color drained from Laud's face. He then spoke straightforwardly, "I need to have a personal discussion with William!"

"But Lord William has recently contracted a serious illness and is not in a position to leave," Kodi shook his head, refusing the idea.

"If he still has the capacity to worry about whether the empire coins he's earning are enough, he must not be sick enough!" Laud said with mockery.

Kodi's expression turned somewhat awkward, but he still managed to compose himself, indicating that he needed to ask for permission before making a decision.

As Kodi left, the expressions of those present in the room became somewhat worried, and Lynn's figure also emerged in the parlor.

"Lord Lynn, do you think William will agree?" Laud asked hesitantly.

"Why wouldn't he? He won't get useful information from anywhere else," Lynn said with a smile.

Probably because he is involved in activities that can't see the light of day, William is extremely careful on a normal basis. For some unknown reasons, he hadn't left his fortress for the past two years.

Even rarely has anyone ever seen his true face; most people only know that the Viscount William from the kingdom is a friendly-looking fat man who runs a fleet trade, and that's all.

More importantly, that place is not far from the Church's headquarters, making it difficult for them to adopt a strategy of force.

"But what if it's a trap?" Laud voiced some unease.

"Of course, it will be a trap. That's why the next part will be your performance, Laud," Lynn said confidently, then patted Laud on the shoulder, continuing.

"You are my right-hand man and don't know magic. Kodi is aware of this information. For safety's sake, William will likely have you go."

A twitch crossed the corners of Laud's mouth, having just left the tiger's den, he was entering the wolf's lair.

However, compared to when he met Anthony before, the fear in Laud's heart was not as intense because he knew that Lynn could always project a portion of power through the "Ring of Secret Arts" at any time.

As long as William was dealt with, he could take over his power, no longer being as dispensable as before, and become the most important right-hand man to Lord Lynn. Laud silently consoled himself in his heart...
