Chapter 231: Spell Bombardment
Outside the entrance to this tower is a wide platform with hundreds of steps built under the platform, and the view is wide, and you can see the small half of the wizarding academy from the top of the tower.
Wren stood in the middle of the corpses of the demon cavalry, looking up at countless undead as if it were raining down from the sky.
The number of undead is so large that it almost fills the field of vision.
In the floating city of Naxus overhead, in that huge entrance, the undead swarmed out, as if directly connected to the abyssal underworld, and the undead were endless.
It's like the end of the world!
Fortunately, the enemy's goal was to breach the Wezeland Tower, and the undead were concentrated in the interior of the wizarding academy around the tower, and they rushed straight to the tower as soon as they landed, and did not kill the inhabitants of the floating city and cause a massacre.
It is clear that there is someone behind the army of the undead who is in command, and there is no unorganized and indiscriminate attack.
Bang bang bang......
The sound of the undead falling to the ground continued.
A bloated body smashed down towards Wren's position, as if it was going to smash Wren to death.
It was more than three meters tall, obese, as if it was made of pieces of corpses, covered with stitches, two fat arms with a rudimentary heavy weapon, a third arm growing out of its back, carrying a bloodstained knife, a barrel-like belly showing bloody intestines, a hideous face, huge eyes protruding from the sockets, making people have nightmares at night.
This is the proud creation of the Lord of the Necromancy, called Abomination.
Nearly every Death Knight and Necromancer under his command will use corpses to create Abomination in their own combat service.
The strength of the abomination is directly proportional to its body, and the abomination that is more than three meters tall is no less than that of a high-level transcendent.
A necromancer wind pressed down from the sky.
At the moment of abomination, Wren suddenly took a dozen steps backwards to avoid being hit.
Heavy abomination smashed a hole in the ground, a strange laugh came out of his mouth, and the three arms brandished their weapons and were about to attack, but Wren had already launched a charge back in front of him.
The figure flashed in.
A dark golden hammer of lightning slammed into the chest of Abomination.
The thick corpse actually had a strong defense, but under Wren's war hammer, it instantly sunk in, and the power exploded, and the back of the abomination exploded, and the third arm was blown to pieces.
A huge hole in blood appeared in the chest of the abomination, transparent from front to back.
The body collapsed with a bang.
Killing the abomination with a single blow, Wren turned around and saw that in just a few seconds, hundreds of skeleton warriors had fallen from the steps below the base of the tower.
They were among the lowest creatures of the undead, with mutilated skeletons, tattered clothes, some in black armor, and rusty weapons in their arms, rushing up the steps.
The bones collided, making a clattering sound, and the movements were wobbly and somewhat funny.
The strength of these skeleton warriors is very low, and they have no intelligence, only slightly stronger than ordinary people, they are generally humans who have been dead for many years and are summoned from the graveyard by the force of death, and there are many of them.
In a group of skeleton warriors, there is usually a leader called the Skeleton General.
Wren spotted it at a glance, the skeleton in full armor and holding a two-handed greatsword, the ghost fire in its eyes noticeably brighter.
The strength of the Skeleton General is equivalent to that of a mid-level transcendent.
"Guard the entrance to the tower. ”
Wren turned around and commanded, and the Ultramarines formed a strong steel defense line on the platform at the entrance.
At the same time, a ball of silver-white light appeared on his hand, crackling, and in the blink of an eye, it swelled to the size of a skull.
A second and a half later, the electric explosion orb shot out.
Balls of lightning pierced through a group of skeleton warriors, and lightning burst outward, burning the undead in their path to ashes before smashing onto the skeleton general's armor.
Bang.
The skeleton general, which was more than two meters tall, exploded directly, and dozens of lightning bolts swept around, almost emptying all the skeleton warriors on the ground.
Wren nodded slightly in satisfaction.
After the teacher's teaching, he initially mastered the skills of casting spells quickly, although he could not exert the maximum power of the electric explosion orb, but it was enough to clean up these low-level undead creatures.
Several waves of undead descended.
Wren bombarded with electric explosion orbs, throwing out lightning balls one after another, as if he didn't use soul power, frantically pouring spells.
Indeed, the power consumed by casting spells is far from keeping up with the speed of soul absorption.
In less than half a minute, the battery has risen by another twenty bars, and it is already halfway to the upgrade.
Having just blown a wave of necrophils to pieces, Wren looked back to see a portal open on the top of the stairs, and a white-haired Speaker Cadegar walked out.
He was relieved to see that the entrance to the tower was intact and guarded by Ultramarines.
"Wren, I'm glad to have you. ”
Ledgar said happily that the Death Lord's "Frost is hungry" frightened many wizards of Wezeland, causing chaos and a very short time, and there was no time to allocate the men to guard the entrance.
The Floating City was cut off from power by Ruin, rendering the Wezeland Emblem ineffective.
By the time the legendary wizards calmed the crowd and opened the portal themselves without the help of badges, a lot of time had already been wasted.
In particular, the two farthest entrances to the square may have been breached.
Before coming, Cadegar prepared for the worst.
His portal continued, and people kept coming out, led by Osilia and then by two other legendary wizards.
After the three legendary spellcasters came out, they immediately cast spells one after another, and each opened the portal.
One wizard after another came through the door, all of them elite wizards from Wezeland, soon more than thirty, and the nobles of Mordu joined them, and Wren saw Sonas, Marquis of Gileus, coming out of the portal with a great axe.
With so many transcendents, it's easy to hold the entrance to a tower.
"Speaker Cadegard, there is still an entrance...... "Wren hurriedly reminded that the first two entrances were guarded, and the last one he hadn't been to and didn't know the situation.
Cadegar nodded, "Speaker Medra has already taken someone with him." ”
"That's good. Wren was relieved, and the four Speakers each happened to be guarding the entrance to a tower.
The pressure on him suddenly became much less, and he stepped back.
Cadegar divided the wizards into three groups, each led by a Legend, who took turns casting spells to destroy their enemies.
Wave after wave of undead fell from the sky and charged towards the entrance of the tower, however, as soon as they came within distance, one spell after another descended, and they were all large-scale lethal spells.
Fireball, Firestorm;
Ring of Frost, Hurricane;
Acid Rain Storms, Torrent ......
Colorful spells, indiscriminate saturation attacks, and supplemented by various control spells, many undead were blasted into scum by energy before they even landed.
One by one, souls that could not be seen by the naked eye, flew towards Wren like moths to fire.
Wren didn't have to do anything, just watched the battery skyrocket.
Three minutes later.
The power rose to full capacity, and the soul shook and began to rise.
But there were still souls flying in and being absorbed, converted into electricity, and Wren's head began to swell.
He skillfully opened the interface of the mobile phone and put the excess power into the elements.
There are several things he can improve on at the moment.
The lightning arc and the electrostatic field are two arcane elements, and the activated metal and toxin resistance obtained by fusing the demon soul of the mutant ooze monster are only first-level physical elements that can be improved.
Especially the activated metal, this supernatural element will inevitably consume a lot of soul power.
Wren prioritizes the distribution of soul power to two lightning spells.
He watched the battle as he felt his soul rise.
"No, it's weird. ”
Wren's brow furrowed, and he noticed something unusual.
In addition to the first wave of airborne raids of the evil spirit cavalry, spider demons and abominations, the people who landed behind were all low-level undead, mainly skeleton warriors, evil corpse dogs, and zombies, although there were many of them, but they did not have high combat effectiveness, and they were cannon fodder in the Scourge Legion, and a fireball technique could kill a large area, and it was impossible to attack the tower.
These low-level undead statues are deliberately sent to death.
Wren looked at Speaker Cadegar, and the legendary high-level arcanist also noticed it, and said, "They drain our soul power with low-level undead. ”
He shouted, "Everyone should pay attention to conserving soul power, this battle will last for a long time." ”
The Scourge wants to fight a protracted war.
Wren thought to himself, observing the wizards with the eye of his soul.
These spellcasters are not like themselves, they can transform their soul power by absorbing their souls, and after a few minutes of spell bombardment, their soul power has already dropped a bit.
There are a few mid-level wizards who are not good at spellcasting, and their soul power is less than half of it.
Even if there is a soul recovery potion, they can't hold on for too long, and if they encounter a powerful enemy, I'm afraid that after a few spells in a row, the soul power will bottom out.
Only a few legendary wizards are in a better situation, they have strong soul power and are not afraid of consumption.
The Scourge has been rampant with Ehrenus for hundreds of years, and there must be more than just these means.
Wren couldn't help but be a little worried.
In the sky, the battle of the three Holy Soul level transcendents was even more intense.
Ansivodaus was one against two, like a king in control of the flames, and dragged the Death Lord and Colstead hard, and even forced them out of the confines of the Floating City, preventing them from causing more damage.
The terrifying flames of the Holy Soul Wizard and the endless frost of the Death Lord were like two heavens of ice and fire, sweeping the sky of most of the Demon Capital, constantly colliding fiercely, and the rumbling sound was endless.
Countless people on the ground were so frightened by this scene that they screamed and ran, desperately looking for a place to hide.
A few more minutes passed.
When Wren raised both the lightning arc and the electrostatic field to the third ring, the number of undead who fell suddenly decreased, and the sky became empty.
The wizards stopped, looking up at the floating city of Naxus.
The dark entrance was silent for a few moments, and then one figure after another flew out.
Half of them were dressed as spellcasters in robes and staffs, and they were all necromancers and lichs blessed with flying magic!
The other half of the body was covered in closed rune armor, and the body was tall and muscular, wrapped in the breath of death.
They're Death Knights!
Wren's pupils shrank, and the enemy's main force finally appeared.
At a cursory glance, there were more than 100 necromancers and lichs, including at least eight legends, and the number of death knights was even higher, nearly 300.
Because there were so many, he didn't have time to count how many were legendary death knights.
"They are the lords of sigils. Cadegar said in a deep voice.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone saw that the necromancers and lichs flew down, but instead of attacking the Wezeland Tower, they scattered in all directions, falling into the floating city.
The same goes for the Death Knights, who leap down and smash into distant buildings and streets, killing them.
There are not only wizards in the floating city, but also about 100,000 residents.
Most of them are ordinary people, who are simply powerless to fight against evil enemies and have nowhere to run.
A scream came from afar, and every second someone was harvesting their souls.
"Speaker, what should I do?"
The wizards looked at Cadegar, anxiously awaiting his decision.
The people who can live in the floating city are either rich or expensive, and they are more or less related to the academy, usually the parents, family, relatives and friends of the wizards, and they can't watch them being slaughtered.
Cadegar was in a dilemma.
He could understand the mood of the wizards, but it was a trap, and if the wizards left to save their family and friends, causing the tower to fall, then everyone would be doomed.
"Your Excellency Speaker......" A wizard couldn't help but plead, "My whole family is in the Floating City, and I can't die without help." ”
"Me too, I have to save them, Speaker Kadegar, I'm sorry. Another wizard spoke up, his face guilty, but he left with determination.
Cadegar tried to stop him, but in the end he couldn't make a move.
Seeing this scene, many wizards were shaken.
With the enemy's killing speed, it doesn't take half an hour to kill more than ninety percent of the ordinary people in the floating city, even if the tower is saved, but the people are dead, what's the point?
Someone took the lead, and soon more wizards left, including a legend.
Not only this tower entrance, but also wizards flew out in the direction of the other three entrances, and obviously, the same thing happened.
"You ......," Cadegarard felt powerless.
Wren also sighed that this was the enemy's conspiracy, which was almost incomprehensible.
It's almost, not really completely unsolvable, because the situation hasn't really reached a desperate point yet.
Wren did not hesitate and said, "Speaker Kadegar, you can rest assured to stop those executioners, this entrance is guarded by me, and as long as I am alive, I will never let any undead enter the tower." ”
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but look at Wren.
"Are you sure you can hold it?" said Speaker Kadegar, with some suspicion.
Wren's gaze swept over the Ultramarines and said confidently, "As long as one or two legends are left, I promise there will be no problem." ”
"Good!"
Cadegar chose to trust Wren and ordered, "Osiria, Marquis of Girius, you stay and fight with Wren, and the others go out with me." ”
"Yes, Your Excellency. The wizards immediately dispersed.
Kadegar also saw a direction to open the portal, just now a rune master fell, it should not be far away.
At the same time, a large number of wizards left the entrances of several other towers.
As soon as the wizards walked on their front feet, the floating city of Naxus in the sky immediately reacted, the entrance expanded again, and countless undead creatures fell down again.
This time, their numbers were even larger, exponentially multiplied, and they were no longer all low-level undead, among them were a large number of powerful high-level undead.
Wren held the hammer of thunder and lightning, stood on the steps under the tower, and said with some impatience:
"Come on!"
