Chapter 156: Arcane Barrier
Lin Li rubbed his eyes vigorously, wanting to see more clearly.
It's really not my own eyes.
It's gone, it's all gone...... Whether it was the colorful light on the elemental shield or the four fireballs swirling on the source fire shield, they all disappeared without a trace all of a sudden...... "This is too fake...... isn't it" Lin Li looked at Medellin in a daze, his eyes were already a little straight for a while.
Medellin is a figure close to the legendary level, and the two shields of the elemental source fire he holds up at the same time can almost ignore all archmage-level attacks, and Lin Li even feels that even if a character like Anduin Odwin personally strikes, he may not be able to break these two shields in an instant.
But everything in front of me is so real.
Indeed, someone broke these two shields in an instant.
And that person is Lin Li himself...... Lin Li was completely insane, he couldn't believe that all this was true.
That's the Source Fire Shield, a specialized shield that can only be possessed after breaking through the Great Wizard Realm, directly using the power of the elemental origin, its defensive power is so strong that it is almost perverted, not to mention that in addition to the Source Fire Shield, Medellin is also covered with a layer of elemental shield.
Breaking these two shields at the same time almost means that in the moment just now, he even has the opportunity to threaten a person who is close to the legendary level.
There is no doubt that it is the dragon's eye gem in his hand that allows him to break through the two shields.
"Is this true?"
"Damn, nonsense......" The old man scolded angrily, he was really scared just now, Medellin never thought that what was hidden in this dragon's eye gem was such a perverted spell.
"How is this possible...... Although he had already vaguely guessed something, at this time, hearing Medellin admit it himself, Lin Li still couldn't help but gasp: "Just now, it really broke through your two shields?" ”
"No, you can't say that." Medellin shook his head, his expression a little hesitant: "The situation just now, it may be more appropriate to describe it as an interruption......"
"Why the outage?"
"The reasons for this are complicated, and if you want to figure it out, you first have to know one thing."
Lin Li couldn't help but be stunned: "What's the matter?" ”
"That's it...... Damn, you're so lucky! The old man scolded angrily, and then continued: "Do you know what kind of spell is contained in this dragon's eye gem?" ”
"I don't know ......"
"If I'm not mistaken, this spell should be called the Arcane Barrier, a level 15 spell that has been lost for 1,200 years......"
“……”
"Guess how powerful it is."
"How can I guess......" Lin Li shook his head numbly, he suddenly found that in this day, he had more time shaking his head than in the previous month combined.
The old man smiled, and then continued: "This spell is strong, it can cut off the magic power in an instant, to some extent, it has some similarities with the magic feedback, but the magic feedback is achieved through suppression, while interrupting the casting, it can also bring a certain degree of forbidden magic effect, while the arcane barrier is achieved by cutting off the magic power, it will not produce the forbidden magic effect, and can only temporarily cut off the flow of magic power." ”
"Isn't that another magic feedback?"
"Wrong!" Medellin shook his head: "There is one of the most obvious differences between these two spells, that is, the mana feedback can interrupt the spell chanting, while the arcane barrier can at most extend the spell casting time, and its real use is for channeling spells and semi-channeling spells. ”
Lin Li nodded, this time he understood.
The so-called channeling spells refer to those spells that need to maintain the output of magic power during the casting process, such as a total of twelve arcane missiles, in the process of releasing these twelve arcane missiles, you need to always maintain the casting state, once interrupted, you can't release all twelve arcane missiles.
Semi-guided spells, on the other hand, refer to those like elemental shields, which do not need to be in a casting state, nor do they need to be guided by mental power, and when using semi-guided spells, the caster needs to continue to provide mana, and if the mana output is interrupted, the elemental shield will naturally not exist.
"Does that mean that I can interrupt anyone's magic at will in future battles, so as to achieve the effect of breaking the magic shield?"
"No, no, no...... You're wrong again. Medellin shook his head again.
"Huh?"
"Arcane barriers are not used like this, first of all, you have to figure out that the arcane barrier is not a magic feedback, its duration is too short, and it will not produce a forbidden effect, after the magic power is interrupted, it only takes a moment to recover, what can you do in this moment? Don't talk about chanting spells, you may not be able to cast even an instantaneous spell. ”
"Does this arcane barrier make sense, then?"
"In the Dark Ages, the Arcane Barrier was a spell that every member of the Magic Legion had to master, don't underestimate this momentary interruption, in the original war, but few people dared to cast a channeling spell in front of the members of the Magic Legion, do you know why? It's because of the existence of the Arcane Barrier! ”
"Is that an exaggeration?" Lin Li frowned, to be honest, he really didn't believe it, if it was really like what Medellin said, this effect could only last for a moment, then what was the point of interrupting the channeling spell?
"Idiot!" Medellin glared at him fiercely, "Don't you know that the interruption of spell casting will bring about a magic backlash?" ”
Being scolded by Medellin like this, Lin Li suddenly remembered that forcibly interrupting the spell casting would bring about a magic backlash, especially some guided spells, because it was necessary to always maintain a state of concentration on casting, and once it was interrupted, it was likely to bring mental chaos effects.
The battle between magicians is changing rapidly, and there is absolutely no room for the slightest mistake, and it only takes one magic backlash to immediately turn the victory and defeat upside down, not to mention that it may also produce a mental chaos effect, which is much more powerful than a magic backlash, which can lead to a loss of control of magic at least and schizophrenia at worst.
"So, boy...... You're really lucky this time, put this thing away properly, and if you use it properly, you might even have a chance to defeat the Archmage. At the end of the conversation, Medellín summed it up with this sentence.
"Yes." Lin Li nodded, and carefully put the dragon's eye gem into his pocket.
"Knowing that you have this thing, Lao Tzu is much more relieved......" Medellin said as he opened the closed door, and when he came out of the spell testing hall, Medellin's old face was already full of gloating smiles: "At least Dalyan, you don't need to worry anymore, his favorite thing to use is channeling spells, and when the time comes, ...... You can use this gem to give him a big surprise, damn, Lao Tzu has been unhappy with this idiot for a long time, if he really comes to trouble you, you must not give me face, you can beat as hard as you can, Lao Tzu wants to see if he has the face to stay in Orlana after being beaten by a magician......"
“……”
I don't know if Dalyan can stay or not, but there is one person who really can't stay anymore.
His name is Madias...... In the past ten days, Lin Li has been running to the All-Knowing Tower every day, although he didn't go today, but he was also so busy that he didn't even notice that his words about entertaining Matthias in the guild hall that day had gradually spread in the Orlana Magic Guild...... "Tell you a secret ......"
"What's the secret?"
"Does Matthias of the Out of the City Guild know? I've heard people say that he seems to be impotent! ”
"Holy! So exciting? ”
"Yes, yes, it's really pitiful Lord Verheim, I finally gave birth to a son, and it's actually an impotence ......"
"Hey, what a tragedy in the world......"
"I've only told you this secret, you must help me keep it, and I must never tell anyone else!"
"Yes, no problem."
............ "Tell you a secret ......"
"What's the secret?"
"Does Matthias of the Out of the City Guild know? I've heard people say that he seems to like only men and not women! ”
"Holy! So exciting? ”
"Yes, yes, it's really pitiful Lord Verheim, who finally gave birth to a son, but he only likes men and not women......"
"Hey, what a tragedy in the world......"
"I've only told you this secret, I promised others to keep it a secret, you must not tell anyone else!"
"Yes, no problem."
………… Rumors are actually the same as the plague, which is always spreading faster and faster, getting worse and worse, from impotence to only liking men and not women, to stenching all over the willows, such a complex evolution process only took four or five days, and it seems that there is a trend of getting worse and worse...... As for the real surname of the rumor, no one wants to care anymore.
In fact, everyone knows that this is false, but for them, it doesn't matter whether the rumor is true or not, the important thing is that in the process of spreading the rumor, they can get some satisfaction and pleasure.
So, Madias was so unlucky...... "Damn! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Madias's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, he was desperately smashing things to vent, and everything in the room that could be smashed had been almost smashed by him, but the anger in Madias's heart was burning more and more...... If it were possible, he would have wanted to take that Garros hillbilly at once, torture him for ten days and ten nights by the most cruel means, and let him die in endless agony after shedding his last drop of blood!
It's all because of this damn guy that he has become a laughing stock in everyone's mouths, listen to what they are talking about...... Although Matthias has been recuperating from his injuries recently, the jokes circulating in the guild have reached his ears without missing a word, and listening to other people's discussions every day, Matthias only feels as uncomfortable as a needle prick.
With this kind of talk, he can't live a day.
That Garros hillbilly, must pay for everything he has done!
Matthias slammed open the door, dragging his two wounded legs, which had not yet fully recovered, and was about to go find the damn guy, but as soon as the door opened, Matthias saw a figure in a black robe standing outside the door.
"Madias, what are you doing?"
"Mentor Horen, I ...... I ......" Matthias froze for a moment, stammering "me" a few times, before finally "I" came out with a sentence: "I want to go out for a walk......"
"Let's go?" Huo Lun glanced at him, and a sneer appeared on his square face: "I'm afraid I'm going to find that Garros magician named Ferrey, right?" ”
was exposed by Horen's words, Madias was somewhat weak-hearted, all along, Horen's mentor brought him an unfathomable feeling, Madias was afraid of him, and respected him very much.
"Okay, if you want to go, you can go......"
"Huh?" Madias was stunned.
"But let me tell you, Matthias, if you break your limbs again this time, don't expect me to come up with another intermittent potion to save you, let alone expect me to help you out, you'd better figure it out."
"But...... Mentor Hollen ......"
"But what?" Huo Lun glanced at him, his square face was still calm, and he couldn't tell what kind of mood he was.
"But I can't bear it!"
"So what?" Huo Lun sneered, and his eyes were fixed on Madias: "You can't bear this breath, what can you do with him?" Do you think that you are really someone's opponent? ”
"I ...... I was just careless last time...... "Although Horen's gaze made him a little nervous, Matthias still didn't back down.
In the past ten days lying on the hospital bed, he has thought about it again and again, and the key to the original battle has gradually been explored by him.
In this world, it is absolutely impossible for anyone to withstand a burning fireball bombardment without a magic shield, even if it is a legendary mage, this is not something that ** strength can withstand at all, unless...... Unless the guy named Ferrey has some kind of magical equipment on him...... Matthias could even guess that the use of this magic equipment was probably to produce an effect similar to a magic shield, and the burning fireball he blasted out at that time must have been blocked by this magic equipment.
This is quite important...... It's the magic gear that's blocking the flaming fireball, not the guy's own strength.
Matthias believes that he will not be mistaken, the strength of that Garros hillbilly will definitely not exceed level seven, even if he has made a new breakthrough in the past ten days, his current strength will never exceed level ten, as long as he finds out the true strength of the opponent, with the strength of his twelfth level magician, how can he make the original mistake again?
It is precisely because of this that Madias has never understood why Mentor Horen has to let himself endure.
Patience and Patience...... I don't know how long I have to endure it...... "carelessness?" Hahaha...... "Madias's words fell into his ears, but Horren seemed to have heard some funny joke, and laughed so much that he couldn't even straighten his waist, and after laughing alone for a long time, Horn said to Matthias with a sarcastic face: "You should thank you for your carelessness......"
"Mentor Horen, why is that?" Madias laughed a little weakly.
"Why?" Horn glanced at him, and the smile on his face was still full of sarcasm: "Madias, you can't really be so naïve, right?" Do you really think that the Garros magician named Ferret only has the strength of level seven? ”
"Isn't it?"
"Matthias, you're so naïve that I want to laugh......" Hollen smiled sarcastically, and when Matthias was a little weak when he kept laughing, he shrugged his shoulders and said a little indifferently: "Okay, okay, Matthias, just think he's a seventh-level magician, but so what?" Do you think that Medellín will let you hurt his disciples? ”
When he said this, not to mention Madias, even Horen himself couldn't help but be a little discouraged, and there was one thing he didn't tell Madias, because he was afraid that it would completely freak him out by saying this.
Behind that so-called seventh-level magician, there was not only a Medellin, but also a legendary mage named Anduin...... After returning from the Nightmare Mountains that day, Horen didn't tell anyone, and forbade the two trial mages who went with him to discuss the events of that day again, and in order to paralyze Medellin, he even pretended to forget about it, but in Horen's heart, he remembered everything clearly, and those who hurt Barthrol must pay the price!
Horren was just forbearing...... Hollen knew he had made a mistake.
This mistake is the same as that of Madias, who underestimated the Garros magician named Ferre.
At that time, Horren felt that this was just a seventh-level magician, and there was no need to use any conspiracy, and he even felt that even if Medellin was in front of him, he would definitely not fall out with him because of a low-level magician, so that when he was on the Nightmare Mountains, Horren didn't even bother to use any conspiracy, just symbolizing his surname and charging him with hurting his colleagues, so he planned to forcibly take him to the guild dungeon.
He never imagined that this Ferre would be able to attract Anduin's help, and from the subsequent development, the relationship between the two was so terrifying that it even surpassed the scope of master and apprentice.
For this reason, Holren reflected for a long, long time.
Anduin's existence made Horen feel constrained, he couldn't deal with that Ferre directly, even if he did, he definitely couldn't let Anduin know that this matter was related to him.
After returning from the Nightmare Mountains that day, Anduin asked Medellín to bring a word.
"If you move Ferrey's finger, I'll cut off Barthall's hand."
Horren knew that Anduin did have this strength, and he didn't dare to provoke Anduin until he had his father's support, so he could only pretend that nothing had happened.
But that doesn't mean he forgot about it, in fact, Horren didn't forget anything, he just hid his thoughts deeper.
Horren soon had an idea, because he suddenly remembered that the guy named Ferre had not only injured Barthroel, but also his disciple Madias!
Madias is not an ordinary person, as long as he wants to, he can make a big article on his identity to ...... "Forget it...... Matthias, if you really want to say this, you should be honest with me, and not be clever enough to be good at that Ferré. After Horen finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of Matthias's room, this matter, he already had a complete plan, as long as Matthias is not smart, he can quickly make that Ferre unlucky, as for what the plan is, there is no need to tell Matthias, in the end he is just a pawn, and the pawn does not need to know too much
