Chapter 288: Tunnel Warfare?
"These undead... Is it crazy?"
Carrying the magic flame staff on his back, Derandon frowned, standing on the tower of the not-so-towering city wall of Dalaran, he was one of the six councils of Dalaran and a proud seventh-order archmage, after becoming an archmage, the magic element transformed his originally weak body, and even his eyesight was almost blessed to the limit of human beings.
But now, in the face of Dalaran who opened the magic enchantment, these undead actually went forward one after another, in a suicidal attack, from the front of Dalaran to attack, charging towards Dalaran's purple magic enchantment, the fragile walking corpse, almost impossible to approach the enchantment five meters away, will be completely torn apart by the strong magic radiation.
Even the most powerful of the vitality, the undead war machine abomination, after forcibly breaking through the tear of the outer space of the enchantment, at most, will pick up the bloody flesh hook and slash at the enchantment twice, and their huge bodies will be crushed into powder by the terrifying magic contained in the enchantment.
Farther away, the cursed mages in black robes gathered together almost instantaneously threw all kinds of magic in the direction of the undead sea's attack.
Although it looked magnificent, and half of the sky was shrouded in the light of various kinds of magic, judging from the fact that the mana enchantment had not changed at all, these necromancers were obviously doing useless work.
Farther away from the mages, rows of hideous and rudimentary natural disaster construction machinery, at a very fast speed, in the direction of Dalaran, throwing boulders, each big stone smashed on the barrier, will make Dalaran's ground shake, but in the face of the excellent physical defense of the barrier, even the catapult that can break through the human city can not make any action.
It only took a few seconds for Derlandon to understand what the undead were up to.
It's nothing more than a drain on the magic of the Eye of Dalaran, but what if a thousand undead pounce on it every second?
The mana they consumed was only one hundredth of the defensive circle within the Council of Six, named the "Violet Enchantment".
Frankly speaking, even if all the hundreds of thousands of undead brought by that guy named Xue Huan were killed under the Violet Enchantment, they would never want to break through the Enchantment in such a barbaric way.
Although the violet enchantment is also known as the double enchantment, its defense against physics and magic is not alternate, but as long as it is opened, this purple shield has both magical and physical defense, and there is no problem of conversion nature at all.
And theoretically speaking, as long as it is an attack that does not exceed the maximum output mana of the Eye of Dalaran, it will not cause problems with the operation of the enchantment, and if you want to exceed the output of the Eye of Dalaran, hehe, at least in the current Azeroth, it is impossible.
The arrogant demons and scourge obviously underestimated the wisdom of human mages, and it would be foolish to say that they tried to use brute force to force a breakthrough through the magical barrier.
But Derlandon, who was inspecting the entire battlefield, knew that the Violet Magic Enchantment was not invincible.
Actually, if this barrier can be opened and turned into a round spell shield, then it will be perfect, but unfortunately this circle can only work on the surface part, it is a circular cover!
Although the mages of Dalaran spent 200 years carving the cone-shaped rock under the ground of Dalaran into a dense and solid circle to protect the weak points. Theoretically, even if several heroes come together with all their might, don't even think about splitting these rocks, which are nearly a hundred times harder than ordinary rocks.
But it still can't change the ground of Dalaran, which is the only weakness of the Violet Enchantment.
Antonidas and the Council of Six have both investigated that the undead army under Xue Huan's command is not only good at frontal combat, but also able to pass under the ground, so most of the battle mages are deployed near the sewers of Dalaran, 24 hours a day, closely monitoring any abnormal movements from below the ground.
This is also the reason why it is rare to see mages in the current Dalaran, wide streets, and at this critical moment, the entire city of mages, all those who are capable of fighting, have been mobilized.
The Violet Enchantment is indestructible, and the only weakness is well concealed.
But why do you still have bad feelings in your heart?
Derlandon stepped down from the tower, and he hurried to the seat of the Council of Six, absolutely superior wisdom warning Derlandon that there was definitely some threat that he ignored.
"But... We already have such an enchantment, where does this faint warning come from?"
Durandon looked up at the sky in a muttered manner, but finally shook his head in nothing, and simply stopped thinking about these things.
And behind the frontal battlefield thousands of kilometers away, Kel'thugad giggled triumphantly, and the Great Lich looked at the brainless undead who were constantly rushing into the magical barrier of Dalaran, and said,
"Master's hand is really a clever move, if we feign to attack and actually surround it, those shrewd mages will definitely see through the problem, but if we keep calling the undead to rush the magic shield, those guys will definitely think that we want to use brute force to destroy this barrier. ”
"It's a pity, it would be nice if Anubarak was here. ”
Xue Huan pursed his lips, there were many potholes dug out of the ground beside him, those were the ghouls he sent to the ground, their claws were sharp, although they were not as good as the spider demon guards who were naturally good at fighting underground, but as long as there was enough time, this trick was also feasible.
As it happens, the last thing he lacks is time.
The two armies confronted each other, and it was obvious that his Cataclysmic Legion was the superior side, so Xue Huan was prepared for both.
One of them is to hollow out all the beneath the surface of Dalaran, then have the ghouls lurking underground to raid Dalaran City, and then forcibly destroy the barrier from within.
The second option is to take advantage of nearby Lake Lordamere.
Old Dalaran was only a kilometer or two away from Lake Lordamire, and if the soil between Lake Dalaran and Lake Lordamire could be directly hollowed out and the lake water could be poured directly into Dalaran, then Xue Huan believed that this magical barrier would be self-defeating.
The foundation of all this is built on time.
He has an endless arsenal of ghouls at his disposal, and all he has to do now is continue to command his Scourge to attack, using the victims of these wars to confuse the self-righteous mages and buy precious time.
