Chapter 359: A Trivial Change
In an environment like the sea, where there is sea water everywhere, most of the large-area lethal spells are not very effective, whether it is [Earthquake], [Meteorite], [Fire Rain] or [Thundercloud Storm], it is difficult to maintain the power of their legendary spells, and they are not even as powerful as some ordinary spells.
And the [Dead Cloud] containing negative energy, the [Poisonous Gas Mass] with poisonous gas, this kind of magic can be greatly reduced after being diluted by the negative energy and poisonous gas in it by seawater, and the toxin that could have killed a person is now only barely paralyzed.
The true scientific names of these two spells should actually be called [Dead Cloud] and [Poison Cloud], and [Dead Cloud] and [Poison Gas] are just the names that are circulated in the mouths of shamans. (The real reason is that someone made a typing mistake and made a special reason to modify it.) )
The ubiquity of the sea weakens most of the magic, but there are also some spells that can be greatly amplified in such environments, such as water magic and ice magic.
For example, the legendary spell that Alice is casting now - the Great Vortex Technique, which can only be used in places with abundant liquid, it can make a vortex of different sizes according to the strength of the caster, and the corresponding power of this magic is the power of this magic, if there is anything comparable to the horror caused by the vortex in the sea, it may only be the submarine volcanic eruption [Volcano] that boils the entire sea into a pot of porridge.
[Volcano] This magic Alice is not impossible to use, but not to mention whether it will cause the troops belonging to her side to be affected by the pond fish, and more importantly, the mantle here is to make the phenomenon of [volcanic eruption], which is still difficult for Alice to do alone.
When Alice's mind was divergent, thinking about these things and not, in the ranks of the fishmen in front of her, the current began to rotate clockwise, and the huge force began to rotate with some fishmen, because it was in the middle of the sea, it was difficult for those suspended fishmen to remove the power contained in the current.
Because Alice's strength and level are higher than that legendary plesiosaur, the power of the large vortex technique used is also much stronger, and the entire vortex is almost the size of a square composed of eight basketball courts, enveloping nearly 50,000 or so fishmen around, and after it is formed, it will continue to kill the surrounding fishmen.
Faced with such a situation, the shamans of the fishmen would certainly not let it go, and they sent a third of the fishman shamans, led by three legendary fishmen, to complete the spell of stopping before that huge vortex could form.
【Legendary Countermeasures】
This spell that had been used by Dorongo to make Alice unable to cast anything to do appeared in front of Alice as if time had turned back, and the swirling water began to calm down, leaving only a large area of dizzy fish people who were spinning.
"Sure enough, they have too many spellcasters. ”
Alice stopped the next spell she was preparing with a helpless expression on her face.
Although the proportion of casters in the merfolk and kraken population is very high, the fish-man shamans on the other side who are stacked with huge bases are still a little difficult, and they can still spare their spare strength to stop Alice's attack.
"yes, it's a little too much, the fish-man race...... It's really annoying!"
With the words of the mermaid princess, ice blue magic began to appear in the mermaid's ranks, building frost armor on the bodies of those sea beasts, although not hard, but enough to resist the attack of the mermaid's rudimentary weapons.
"yes, it's really annoying. ”
Now that the strength of the fish-man army has been tested, all that remains is to consider the countermeasures that need to be used, and now that it is difficult to kill with one blow, the situation will inevitably slide into the abyss of protracted war, which happens to be the advantage of the large number of fishmen.
"Frost armor, indeed, is a good way to do it. ”
Looking at the cold glittering armor that the mermaids put on the sea beasts under her command, Alice couldn't help but admire, which was not only admiring the scope of this magic, but also admiring the mermaid princess's tactical concept.
In the battle with the fishmen, as long as they hold on for every extra second, these powerful sea beasts can kill more fishmen, and the number of sea beasts they are in now is more than 100,000, plus the number of sea beasts under the Kraken and other races who are fighting with the fishmen in the distance, the number of people belonging to the allies can even reach millions.
There is a gap of nearly a hundred times between millions and hundreds of millions, that is to say, each soldier belonging to the Allied Army must kill more than 100 fishmen on average before it can be called evenly matched, and only then can this battlefield maintain balance
But not all Allied fighters can fight against so many and kill so many fishmen, such as sealmen and other non-combative populations, when facing fishmen, it is good to be able to deal with one or two, and such populations account for more than 50% of the Allied forces.
Just a magic spell made Alice understand the thoughts and tactics of the young mermaid princess in front of her, she planned to improve the combat effectiveness of those ordinary soldiers who occupied the largest number of allied forces, under the effect of magic, she could only defeat one or two fishmen before, but now she was able to defeat three or four, starting from the smallest place to change the situation of the entire battlefield.
"Kemiri, I need your help, if I want to win. ”
The mermaid princess's tactics inspired Alice and gave her some new ideas, but these ideas are difficult to execute on such a battlefield alone, and the maelstrom technique just now also verified this, she needs some help, some help from the mermaid sacrifice.
"How much do you want. ”
"Not much, just give me a hundred mermaid casters. ”
"A hundred? Okay, I'll give it to you. ”
The mermaid princess pondered for a few seconds, and finally nodded in agreement with Alice's request, she beckoned a maid to convey her order, and a few minutes later, a team of richly dressed mermaid priests walked out of the procession and came to the open space to the left of the carriage.
One hundred mermaid sacrifices have already accounted for one-fifth of the number of all mermaid sacrifices, if it is in peacetime war, with the power of these hundred spellcasters, it can completely crush any tribe in the Baltic Sea, but in this decisive battle related to the fate of the three major forces, the number of one hundred is only an insignificant addition, and can only be used as a straw and cannot become a weighing stone.
These mermaid sacrifices have no resistance to accepting Alice as the leader, because they know Alice, and they also know Alice's terrifying battle record, the origin of the name of the [Calamity Girl].
Alice waved her hand and came to the side of the hundred mermaids, she needed to understand the strength of these mermaids, what spells they could cast, how much magic power they had in their bodies, and how many spells they could use in a row.
While Alice was communicating with the 100 mermaid sacrifices, the mermaid princess was not idle, she let her generals control the army to join the battlefield and converge in the direction of the kraken and the allies, and on the other hand, she also led the remaining 400 or so mermaid sacrifices to start preparing for a new round of magic.
"Well, it's time for us to play. ”
Looking at the mermaid sacrifices, they kicked off the battle with a [Bloodthirsty Thaumaturgy], and the sea beast troops wearing ice armor collided with those fishmen who were frantically fighting, and pieces of blood-colored flowers appeared in the water, and then withered and disappeared.
The sound of dense gnawing came from the armor worn on the body, and every time the sea beast shook its body, it could throw five or six fish-men off its body, and every time it opened its big mouth full of sharp teeth, it could tear two or three fish-men, their sharp claws didn't need to aim at all in such an environment, as long as they shook slightly, it was like cutting tofu, cutting the surrounding fish-men who couldn't dodge into pieces.
Just like a cake eaten by a sudden big mouth, the fish-people who were originally huddled together were attacked by the mermaids, and in an instant, their losses reached thousands, and the crazy sea beasts directly tore a gap in the dense formation of the fish-men.
"Charge?"
A middle-aged general wearing armor walked up to the mermaid princess and asked in a low voice.
This general is a rare male among the merfolk clan, and his position in the army is that of a commander who has completed specific tactical designs, and his status is only lower than that of the mermaid princess.
The charge in his mouth is not the simplest charge, but sends troops like Kraken's swordfish to charge, cut, and slaughter the fishmen's army.
"No, there are too many fishmen, and it's just a waste of troops to throw in them now. ”
As soon as the mermaid princess's words fell, the small gap that had been eaten out quickly closed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and more fishmen rushed out of it, frantically attacking these enemies who had entered her army lineup.
Up and down, left and right, front and back, countless mouths gnawed on the armor made of solid ice, and it didn't matter if they broke a bite of their teeth, as long as they bit a crack in these armors, it was their victory, and one fish-man bit out a crack, and ten fish-men could bite out a hole in the entire armor.
For these sea beasts in armor, in such an environment full of enemies on all sides, a hole in the armor is enough to bring death.
"Don't stop, keep going, don't give them a chance. ”
The mermaid princess commanded loudly, and half of the merfolk sacrifices under her command were trying their best to repair the frozen armor, and the ice blue light appeared on the armor, absorbing the abundant blood and water around it, repairing.
Compared to those fishmen, who numbered hundreds of millions, every combat power on the Allied side was extremely precious, and every minute they held on could kill a few, dozens, dozens of more enemies.
There are casualties in war, and not all sea beasts are so lucky, maybe they were hit by the vital point, maybe they encountered the strongest of the fishmen, or maybe they were one step slower to release the sacrifice of the spell, and the ice armor was broken one step first, and these sea beasts became the first victims of the mermaid army.
However, just when the fish people were still gnawing on the corpses that only had white bones left, and were reluctant to leave, a pale light appeared on the white bones, and in the next moment, a deafening explosion came.
The dozen or so corpses just now had all disappeared, along with hundreds of fish people surrounding the corpses.
This is the product of Alice's first collaboration with those mermaid priests, and it only costs a small amount of magic to use a spell, and it is only a test attack, but it seems that the results obtained are actually good.
【Corpse Explosion】
A spell that uses negative energy to detonate a corpse, which can be detonated as a grenade-like weapon, and after detonation, the flesh and bone fragments that burst out can pierce the surrounding enemies.
Although such spells were also affected in environments such as the sea, the target of their attacks was not the rhinoceros people on land who were armed to the teeth by Alice and had very tough skin, but a group of fishmen who were not close and had no defense.
"Sure enough, it's still a little bit worse, next time I should try the [Poison Explosion Technique]. ”
[Poison Explosion] is a more complex magic than [Corpse Explosion], in addition to powerful kinetic attacks, it also attaches toxins to those flesh and bone fragments, increasing secondary damage to the target.
"Your Highness Alice, don't be so troublesome, the power of the [Corpse Explosion Technique] is enough to kill the fish-man, and the [Poison Explosion Technique] will just waste more magic power and more time. ”
A mermaid priest on the side heard Alice's self-talk and couldn't help but persuade him.
As soon as she opened her mouth, she regretted it, the one in front of her was not the gentle and kind mermaid princess Kemiri who usually led them, but the [Calamity Girl] who killed Dorengo, slaughtered the vampire clan, and destroyed the previous generation of Baltic Sea Lords.
The mermaid sacrifice who reacted around quickly left the mermaid's surroundings, and looked at her with a mixture of pity, pity, and pity.
If it weren't for the sea, the dense cold sweat must have covered her forehead, and the tightly closed eyes also showed that the mermaid was waiting for the punishment that was about to appear for the bold words just now.
But to the surprise of all the mermaid sacrifices, what this daring man was waiting for was not Alice's thunderous punishment, but an apology with a slightly embarrassed tone.
"Well, too, I didn't think it through. ”
Alice waved her hand and said in a disgruntled tone.
"Don't look at me with such surprise, I'm not a brutal person, I'm still on the battlefield, don't think too much about these things that you don't have, go and prepare for the next magic." ”
"Yes...... Yes!"
Alice's voice woke up the merfolk in shock, and they panicked and took the materials from their bosoms to cast spells, and once again came out of their mouths with mysterious and incomprehensible spells.
For spellcasters, materials, spells and magic are all restrictions that restrict the caster from casting spells, even if they reach the stage of Alice, reach the level of gods, when casting some difficult magic, they still need to use materials, chant spells, and use treasures to supplement magic power.
If you just use ordinary magic, or even legendary level magic, you can use it at will in terms of the magic contained in Alice's lich body, but according to Alice's estimate, if it involves magic at the god level, the magic power required will exceed the recovery speed of Alice's body, that is to say, because of the increase in level, infinity has become limited again.
