Chapter 54: Kill the Mother Worm
Seeing the knight's gesture, Orlando immediately flipped over and took out a spell scroll.
Seeing the spell scroll that Orlando took out, Bai Qi suddenly smiled, it is difficult for ordinary mages to distinguish the difference between the third-level spell scroll and the second-level spell scroll, but Bai Qi, who is a real mage, is different, he can see the different materials of the third-level spell scroll at a glance.
Orlando quickly unfolded the scroll, guiding the spell model in the scroll to form a spell, and an orange-red fireball appeared in front of him, and with a wave of his hand, the fireball flew towards the mother worm with a whistling speed.
There are two types of spell scrolls, one that can be used by any profession as long as they meet certain intelligence requirements, and the other that can only be used by those of the same profession.
The former is called a fool's scroll by space soldiers, and it is very demanding to make, and can only be made by alchemists above the intermediate level, so it is not sold even in the interstellar auction house, but only in the system shop. Of course, the price is also high, two to three times the price of regular reels.
Although the latter scroll is cheaper, it has a relatively narrow scope of application, and the mage's scroll can only be used by the mage, and the priest's scroll can only be used by the priest.
Moreover, it doesn't mean that you can use a scroll right away, you must also go through special scroll casting learning and training before you can use it, that is, you get a first-level spell scroll that you have never seen before, even if you are a second-level mage, you can't use it normally.
For scroll skill mages, to use a scroll of a certain spell, you only need to go to the Arcane Academy and spend a certain number of evolution crystals and survival points to master.
And for a true mage like Bai Qi, he needs to practice to master. Fortunately, the laboratory in the Mage Tower can simulate the use of advanced spells, so you don't have to actually buy spell scrolls to practice. In that case, it's just the cost of practice. It's enough to bankrupt any mage.
Scrolls allow low-level mages to cast high-level spells in advance, but they are not infinite, mages without special training can only use spell scrolls two levels in advance, while casters with scroll casting mastery skills can use spell scrolls four levels earlier.
And Bai Qi, who only has a first-level mage level, uses a third-level spell scroll four times in advance, because he has trained the real scroll spell casting mastery skills in the mage tower.
Generally speaking, the caster will start with this skill whenever they have the conditions.
……
An orange-red fireball slammed into the mother's chest, and the fiery fire elemental sprayed everywhere. Turns the mother worm into a giant fireball.
This time, the female worm was finally unable to use the psychic shield, and he squeaked and turned around, intending to escape.
Seeing this scene, the space soldiers immediately cheered.
The knight looked at Xuan Yuanzi of the Sword Cultivator, Xuan Yuanzi smiled slightly, and glanced at the mage under him, who also took out a scroll, and after activating it, a same fireball technique shot towards the ass of the female worm who was fleeing.
Bang. At this moment, the mother worm completely turned into a large moving fireball.
The fire element sprayed by the Fireball Technique didn't last long, only about twenty seconds, but it was just over twenty seconds. It's enough to burn a person half-cooked.
However, until the flames of the two fireballs were extinguished, the mother worm could not be killed. It was still struggling to escape under the auspices of retardation.
This time it was the Freedom League's turn to strike, and another fireball exploded on the back of the mother worm. Set its entire back on fire.
The female worm carried a raging fire on her back and ran for dozens of meters. With a wail, it was so soft that it was on the ground, and in a low popping sound, the position where the female worm's back was burned, a large hole was cracked in the solid carapace, and green body fluids gushed out, but they could not extinguish the flames directly formed by the fire element.
Seeing this scene, all the space soldiers couldn't help but let out a burst of cheers, only the leaders of the four major teams had ugly faces, and the knights even had murderous aura in their eyes when they looked at Guderian.
If you only look at the results of the battle, people who don't know are afraid that nearly a hundred female insect guards are more powerful than female insects, but in fact they are diametrically opposite.
In fact, if it weren't for Bai Qi's proper strategy, the mother worm could easily let this team of more than 200 people wipe out ten times.
For example, if Bai Qi hadn't adopted the method of focusing on caster control, supplemented by long-range attacks, but using the usual practice of space soldiers, using MT to besiege in close quarters, when the mother worm activated the mental power shield for the first time, it would be able to sweep the melee fighters, and the next thing would be to destroy the group.
Under the command of the knight team, when dealing with the weaker female worm guards, not only did they lose nearly a third of the melee fighters, but also wasted a large number of third-level scrolls used by the caster to save their lives, making this challenge mission a great loss even if it was successfully completed.
And under the command of Bai Qi, against the stronger mother worm, he has achieved an impressive record of zero casualties! And the cost of the third-level spell scroll is only one-tenth of the previous one.
With this contrast, many of the three looked at the Cavaliers team with three points of contempt and three points of resentment.
In fact, Bai Qi also secretly shouted luck in his heart, if he hadn't listened to Captain Hank's persuasion and chose to take a real mage as a part-time job, and had a deep understanding of the mage profession, he would not have been able to obtain this miraculous result in this battle.
The elemental flame was quickly extinguished, and a black card appeared above the corpse of the female worm.
At the moment when the mother worm died completely, the worker insects that had been hanging neatly on the cave wall suddenly became chaotic and agitated like a swarm of headless flies.
However, the restlessness of these ineffective workers did not attract the attention of the space warriors.
Each space soldier stared at the black card suspended above the corpse of the mother worm, and their eyes showed greed.
Bai Qi stared at this card for a moment, and couldn't help but sigh, the black card, even for the top team in the space, is something that can be encountered but not sought, who doesn't want it? However, Bai Qi also knew that if he wanted to get this card, it was a fool's dream, and the four major teams couldn't tell the difference, so it was his turn.
Since it's impossible to get, don't think about it.
Just now, the knight occasionally swept his gaze with undisguised murderous intent, and at this time, thinking about snatching the black card again, wouldn't he be looking for death? It's better to keep a low profile and return to the federal army as soon as possible.
The knight acted really domineering, he did not hesitate to order his men to collect the cards, and even the cards that were collected by others in the previous battle were ordered by the crusaders to hand them over, and they were distributed uniformly after they returned. (To be continued......)
