Chapter 689: Advent II
The emitter of this intense light was an extremely active lightning bolt that appeared behind Rhodes.
As soon as this lightning bolt appeared, it shot straight towards the necromancer in the City of Yin Wind below at a speed that exceeded the limit.
When the lightning took shape, the necromancers below seemed to realize that something was wrong, but before they could make any movements, the lightning bolt crossed all the distances between them in an instant, striking the necromancers below.
After the lightning hit the first necromancer, it didn't dissipate. After inflicting a huge amount of damage on the necromancer, the lightning did not decrease in its activity, and remained in its original state, rushing towards the creature closest to the necromancer in the process of beating.
When lightning strikes the target, it does not use up all the energy in it, but continues to damage a large number of creatures present around it as it pulses, which is the characteristic of the spell itself.
Chain lightning is a spell that is not used to attack a single creature itself, but does damage to a large number of creatures like Rhodes does, and this damage is not low.
The creatures in the City of Yin Wind saw a strong flash of light, and then there was a violent explosion in their ears, and by the time they came back to their senses, the chain of lightning had already taken effect, and they did not have any chance to respond.
In just a split second, the chain of lightning had done all the damage it could, unleashing all the energy it contained, and a large number of creatures had died under the spell.
In an area hit by chain lightning, all that exists, whether it is a necromancer or the undead creatures they control, can only be reduced to a charred corpse.
Under the effect of this fourth-order spell, all the creatures hit by it in the process of chain lightning beating, there is no difference in the ending.
The beating process of the lightning was also completed in an instant, without giving the creatures below any time to react. This is also the absolute advantage of the spell chain lightning.
The rest of the surviving necromancers could only secretly feel glad in their hearts that the attack range of this lightning did not envelop themselves.
And in the sky, Rhodes, who was above the ghost dragon, saw all the effects caused by the chain lightning below.
Noticing the blow of the chain lightning to these necromancers, Rhodes seemed to have discovered something through the things that existed below, and frowned slightly.
Rhodes noticed that because these necromancers were carrying a large number of undead creatures around them, in the process of chain lightning attacks and beating at an extremely fast speed, the surrounding undead creatures also suffered from the chain lightning attack and shared a lot of damage.
Because of this, under the effect of this chain of lightning, there are not as many necromancers who really died as Rhodes imagined, but a large number of undead creatures died in the process.
The chain lightning that belongs to the fourth-order spell, the group damage it can cause is not much worse than the same level of hell flames, whether it is the strike range or the damage it can cause, there is no obvious disadvantage, and even in some cases, the chain lightning can exert a more powerful effect.
Due to the chain of lightning cast, it is possible to cross a great distance, hit the target chosen by the mage, and unleash this unique beat, even dealing massive damage to the remaining target even if there are few targets, and in many cases, this magic is more applicable than the infernal flame of the same tier.
This is also the reason why the former Rod, in the previous battle with the hero Thunderbird, faced with the chain lightning it condensed, did not choose to control the ghost dragon to escape, but relied on the artifact parts to bear it head-on. Even a ghost dragon that belonged to a sixth-order creature could not compare to real lightning in terms of speed.
The drawbacks of the chain lightning spell are equally obvious, as if the mage gets too close to the target, the lightning will jump on him in turn, dealing the same damage, and the mage will only choose to cast the spell if the distance is sufficient.
Due to the undead creatures' share of the chain lightning beats, there were not as many necromancers as Rhodes expected, dying under this spell. Even so, the chain lightning still did not reduce the shock of these necromancers below.
Even the surviving necromancer will feel a little afraid in his heart when he recalls the chain lightning he felt before, and in this state, he naturally can't cast any spell on Rhodes in the sky.
Combined with Rhodes' previous absorption of the cloud of death, the necromancer who existed below seemed to realize that the true strength of this necromancer in the sky far exceeded the limit of what they could deal with, and he was no longer able to deal with it by virtue of the advantage of numbers, so he did not dare to make any moves.
Rhodes saw this scene in his eyes, according to his understanding of necromancers, if there was no more powerful necromancer, as long as he showed the tendency to condense the chain lightning again, he didn't even need to cast this spell, and the necromancers below would scatter and flee without any thoughts of fighting him.
For these necromancers below, how to save their lives in this state in the face of invincible enemies has become their primary goal.
Rhodes noticed that many necromancers on the fringes had begun to evacuate in other directions, and some of the necromancers had chosen to evacuate in the only remaining academy tower in the Windy City.
As Rod observed the necromancers, Rhodes noticed that in the position of the academy tower, there was a figure he was looking for.
Having found out this, Rhodes didn't wait any longer. Under his control, the dragon descended rapidly, eventually landing on the ground when it was still some distance away from the Academy's tower.
The necromancers who existed around had already completely given up this area with the descent of the ghost dragon, and no necromancer dared to intervene in the landing of the ghost dragon in the process.
After jumping off the ghost dragon, ignoring the necromancers around him who were like great enemies, Rhodes also looked to the side and noticed a figure.
