Spike the Lich stretched out his staff, and on the handle of the staff, the dark crystal that condensed the power of the necromancy seemed to be collecting silver moonlight, and suddenly glowed with a sparkling light.

The night breeze blew under the bright moonlight, rolling up the dead leaves in the sky.

At Gross's behalf, the tall and burly Stuart walked head-on towards the lich, while Gross, Radia, and Tob the dwarf bent over and hid in the bushes in the woods.

Miss Mage turned her head, and less than half a minute had passed since Gross had told him his plan, and the battle between Choco and the Lich had taken a turn for the worse in the field, and the Lich had launched a fierce counterattack.

The air of gray silence pervaded.

Pale bone claws poked out of the mound of rubble to grab Chocó's ankles—the handsome wild mage gritted his teeth and sprang through the woods.

The Lich's spell casting is closer to the orthodox mage's turret play, while Chocco's tactics are relatively nimble.

This is a process of competition for endurance and consumption.

Regardless of the level of strength, level, and strength of the equipment, Spike the Lich has the absolute upper hand - he is not in a hurry, and even has the leisure to think about what to do with these humans.

Stewart was coming his way.

Spike the Lich didn't pay much attention to it, he just glanced at it casually, but when the man pulled out his two-handed greatsword behind his back, he couldn't help but be stunned-

The dark and broad sword body seemed inconspicuous, but a special feeling in it inexplicably surged into his heart.

In the history of previous games, the player teamed up with Stuart the Black Barrier to kill Spike the Lich, and Stuart's weapon, the Shield Sword, was a stunt that perfectly restrained the Lich in a head-to-head battle.

"Stewart is in the past."

"What about us?"

"Hurry up."

Creeping forward is quite suitable for the dwarven warrior Tob, but it is somewhat difficult for Miss Mage, and Gross feels pity for a moment when he sees that the girl's fair-skinned and delicate little face has been stained with a lot of dust and broken branches and leaves.

"Radia."

"Huh?"

"You just hide behind this birch, and when the battle begins, you aim at the lich and keep throwing fireballs."

"That's ...... All right? ”

Seeing the fierce battle between Spike the Lich and Chocco, Miss Mage Ladya was obviously not confident in the effect of the fireball spell, and Gross's explanation sounded more like a not-so-clever consolation—

Of course, Gross won't say it explicitly, because of Chocó's joining, her existence is only mixed with experience. Compared to Chocco, the "stallion mage", this Miss Crane is closer to his own person.

Two pairs of eyes look at each other.

Tob the dwarf, dragging his two little short legs, like a nimble groundhog, had crawled a long distance.

"Do you have any other spells?"

Gross asked.

The girl's current battle level is LV16, and as far as he knows, in addition to the records on the spell book, the only spell she can master is [Ring of Fire Resistance]-

On such an occasion at the moment, such a distance, it is not suitable to be used.

The girl seemed to be lost in thought, and in her spell book, the other one-ring spells were not more lethal than the [Fireball Technique] - Gross patted her shoulder lightly, and crept forward:

"So, Radia, play free!"

He looked back.

This time, the girl nodded firmly.

She still remembered her teacher's teachings that in battle, the meaning of a mage's existence is not only output.

Stewart starts the charge, the target is locked, Spike the Lich!

At this time, seeing the arrival of reinforcements, the wild mage Choko could no longer care about fully revealing his strength, and he waved the "Blessing of the Forest Whisperer" and threw out three high-temperature fireballs at once.

Fireball bursts.

It's not just as simple as the superposition of the three basic fireball spells, with the cooperation of each other's angles, it can seal most of the enemy's dodge positions, even if the lich Spike has the strength of the first order of awakening, he must divide a lot of spirit to deal with it-

The battle between mages is full of intrigue and games, sometimes it seems to be a simple fireball, but it can be an incendiary bomb, especially the mutated high-temperature fireball released by Chocco is even more unusual.

Seeing Choco cast the [Electro Thunder] level of the awakening level spell before, the lich Spike had already put away his thoughts, although he understood that this young mage was just barely casting a spell beyond the level, but it was difficult to guarantee that he would not use any strange methods.

The Staff of the Cursed is raised, the dark crystal at the head of the staff is tilted downward, and Spike the Lich summons a skeletal warrior who, unlike Adam the Brave, was meant to be one of the Lich's consumables.

Being outnumbered is a characteristic of classes like lich and necromancer, although most of the time, in the face of enemies of the same level of strength, it is useless to have a large number of unreliable trash fish.

But it's also cannon fodder!

This skeleton warrior is only at the level of the middle rank, which is a little stronger than ordinary skeleton soldiers, but it is also extremely limited.

Just in the middle of Stewart's charge.

Bang –

The pale skeleton was hit headlong by Stewart, and the man just struck lightly with his two-handed sword, and the skeleton warrior was instantly torn apart, and the head, leg bones, and spine were divided into several parts, flying high, and falling in a parabola into the potholed and scattered mounds of earth.

But this moment, it had changed the trajectory of Stewart's original charge somewhat, and Spike the Lich took an easy step forward, just in time to staggered past him-

At the other end is a straight pine tree more than five meters tall.

On this night, it was the only tree in the field that was still in good condition.

Under the moonlight, the woodland seemed to have been thoroughly ploughed by a farmer's plow, and countless clods of earth were turned open from the ground, revealing a dark brown humus layer underneath, and in the midst of it, scattered white bones could be seen everywhere.

In short, the previously quiet and beautiful scenery has become a messy picture.

Stewart stopped his charge and turned around, his eyes instantly turning red at the thought that the lich was the culprit who caused his wife and daughter to be infected with the plague—

The greatsword was raised in the air, and the soles of his feet accelerated, and he slashed at Spike the Lich with a sword.

Spike the Lich was suppressing the wild mage Jocco, he waved his staff in one hand, and the other bone palm, and at some point a small black ball had gathered in his palm—

The size of a fist, it looked like it was condensed from the black mist from before.

[Decay] is the concentrated embodiment of the law of power.
