Chapter 185: VS Gloria
(Thanks to Nightmare Shark for the monthly pass!)
"Doesn't seem to be your wishful thinking, Charlotte. Across from Charlotte, Gloria's gothic makeup face had a proud smile, "How? Wellett is stronger than you think, right?"
"Well, that's all. When she said this, Charlotte, who was not ashamed, subconsciously folded the cuffs cut by the stabbing sword for a while.
Gloria's violet eyes had a hidden smile, and she didn't say anything, but praised Elle she had just defeated.
"Really? I think the Book of Etroac is amazing. What should I say? It is really one of the root artifacts created by His Majesty Lu Sien, the Lord of Time! People can't help but look forward to what kind of demeanor the Eye of Time will have that he has always carried with him. ”
"Ah! that's the end of the gossip. Gloria always seemed to be talking to herself, she just said, not expecting an answer at all, "Anyway, after today, I have time to study the mysterious power of the Book of Atroac. ”
The implication is to kill Charlotte and capture Elle.
- That's even more unashamed than I am!
Charlotte laughed angrily, "Ha! Don't be afraid to flash your tongue when you say big things! ”
That seems to be exactly what Gloria meant, surrounded by bones, Gloria holds her head high like the goddess of death, full of dark charm.
She knew that Charlotte was not a powerful enemy that could be defeated with one or two spells, so the first thing she did was to weaken her opponent.
The first striker, Gloria, opted for the Necromantic Decay Ray, a seven-ring spell that isn't lethal, but it randomly spawns a negative status every ten seconds. Those states include slowdown, exhaustion, fatigue, dizziness, etc., and if you are not careful, the balance of power will quickly collapse due to the effect of this spell.
This ray spell composed of negative energy attacks extremely fast, and Gloria, who was still talking to Charlotte just now, suddenly cast a spell under the cover of the bones around her. The painstaking efforts to guard against the Monoculus's observation abilities worked so well that Charlotte was shot in the chest before she could dodge.
Without a targeted defense, the regular spell shield only reduced the energy of this spell part, and after that, the cold energy of the decay ray still persistently hit Charlotte's chest.
Charlotte shivered for a while, and the cold negative energy invaded her whole body with a unique trajectory, in order to save spirit and magic energy, Charlotte did not use the analysis spell, and this time she suddenly gave the initiative to others.
But fortunately, the shield somewhat reduced its energy, so that the decay ray did not explode at the first moment of hit, and Charlotte immediately decided to use a high-level disarming spell on herself. In the process, Gloria's second spell followed.
This time it seemed to be a lightning chain, and Ziz's lightning turned into chains and swept up towards Charlotte. Charlotte, who had just cracked the Decay Ray, didn't want to continue countering the spell, which would only lead him into an endless defensive circle. In spell warfare, once you fall into the rhythm of the enemy, it will be even more difficult to turn the situation back.
In order to regain the advantage, Charlotte relied on her blessed agility to roll to the side.
Boom –
The end of the lightning chain struck Charlotte, and this time, the mage's shield served as a good defense. Charlotte was only stumbled by that energy, and in the process, his spell was ready to be completed.
Charlotte's choice of spells was also not an offensive spell, but a protective anti-magic ray. As the name suggests, this ray-based spell creates an anti-magic force field upon hitting the target, and the target in the field loses all magical abilities.
Dealing with Gloria, who is surrounded and protected by bones, this is the most appropriate spell at the moment. Only by cracking her bones can Charlotte take the initiative.
However, this spell collided with a blood-red ray in mid-air, and the two instantly turned into nothingness.
Gloria also had her own wishful thinking, and she continued to attack with the protection of the Sea of Bones, with the idea that even if she exchanged injuries, she would never suffer. After the lightning chain consumes Charlotte's shield, she uses a vascular mutation spell to kill Charlotte, who has lost her shield protection.
But she didn't expect that Charlotte didn't choose an offensive spell either, but used the disarming spell of the anti-magic force field to launch the first round of attacks. The two spells annihilated each other, allowing Charlotte to narrowly escape.
Charlotte broke out in a cold sweat, if he had just chosen an offensive spell, he would have been covered in bloodless alien tubes by now, and then he would have been drained from those tubes and died.
In less than a minute, Gloria cast three spells in a row, but each round of spell attacks was laying the groundwork for the next round of attacks.
On top of that, the Sea of Bones possessed by the Darkest Holy not only served as a protective thing, but also concealed Gloria's spell casting, making it impossible for Charlotte to judge her options.
Charlotte realizes that it will be difficult to achieve victory when she is suppressed by her smug illusions and space-time spells.
The golden rune civilization in the depths of the crimson eyes was uncertain, and Charlotte took the initiative to turn on the observation ability of the magic eye, and once again operated the magic eye at a high load. But this time, unlike at the beginning, he didn't use mnestics to find flaws in the spell model, but only used the magic eye to observe the spells cast by Gloria.
In regular spell warfare, it's more about guessing the opponent's psychology or incorporating the enemy into your own offensive rhythm to ensure an advantage. In other words, in a close spell battle, you simply don't have time to wait for the opponent to finish casting a spell before cracking it. It's not a turn-based game, and if you do, it's like looking for death.
However, Charlotte can use the observation ability of the magic eye to save a large part of the time, because the casting process of the spell can be roughly divided into three steps: building a model, guiding the magic energy, and casting the spell release, and the observation ability of the magic eye can intervene in the stage between building the model and guiding the magic energy in advance, so although there will still be a slight delay, the advantage of being able to effectively cast spells against the opponent is far greater than that delay.
For example, now, when Charlotte judged that Gloria had used a huge range of eight-ring withering spells this round, Charlotte chose the most targeted spell reversal.
The withering technique can instantly evaporate the water in the bodies of creatures with insufficient physique within the casting range, and in the case of losing the protection of the spell, with Charlotte's mere three-ring physique, there is no need to think about it, and it is absolutely certain to die.
However, its effect is not a direct attack like the destruction system, but an energy blast similar to a negative state. In other words, the spell reversal of the Seven Rings is the best way to deal with it at this moment.
Charlotte pointed at herself, preemptively casting the spell before the wither could take effect. When the withering spell erupted, Charlotte's spell flashed, and in an instant, Gloria in the sea of bones let out an exclamation.
Spell reversal!
Because of the most correct response, the effects of the withering spell were devoured to Gloria's body, and the sea of bones surrounding her suddenly collapsed as she was washed away by this energy. With just one spell, Charlotte, who was defending instead of attacking, managed to turn the tide.
Now, both have lost their ability to defend themselves, and the situation is back to the beginning of the scales.
Even Gloria, who had suddenly undergone a big change, did not hesitate, and in the next moment, the two sides coincidentally struck again.
Fierce spell battles are back, and it's up to them to get their opponents into their own attack rhythm first!
