This is the third time that Ryan has come to Mori, a town that connects the north and south of the continent, and the scene in front of him has changed again, and the black fog in the sky has covered up the area within a radius of dozens of kilometers, covering everything up.

"We tried to drive the cattle and sheep into the dark area, but all of them died without exception, according to the examination of our military chaplain, it should be that the soul was directly stripped out of the body, and the bodies of those dead cattle and sheep were also infected with the terrible plague, but fortunately we were well prepared, so we did not make a self-inflicted oolong. Orlando said helplessly: "The biggest headache now is that we can't collect information inside, and we can't bypass here to attack Seke City, which will completely expose our flanks." ”

Ryan nodded, he was standing side by side with Orlando and others on a high hillside at the moment observing the enemy's situation, for the problem Orlando said, Ryan didn't have a particularly good way to solve it for a while, so he didn't speak, just kept observing the surrounding environment, hoping to find some clues.

Clifford, the archmage from Mochizuki City, suddenly spoke: "What if we directly use magic to attack from a distance, can we destroy the opponent's defense system?"

"We have also studied this, but since this area of dozens of kilometers is shrouded in black fog, it is difficult for us to determine the true location of the city of bones, if we only use level 8 magic, there is a high chance that we will not be able to hit the target, and it will cost mana in vain. Orlando replied.

"Can you only use the forbidden spell?" Clifford said, turning his gaze to Ryan beside him.

"Forbidden spells don't necessarily work. Ryan shook his head and said, "The second time I came here, this dark canopy of the Undead Legion was not really finished, and I used Freya's moonlight brooch to hide my tracks, so I could see everything up close. But in retrospect, the caves I saw at the time were only mixed with a lot of illusions. ”

"Illusion?" Clifford repeated Ryan's words strangely.

"yes. Ryan circled his hand in front of him, encompassing the entire area shrouded in the dark canopy, and then he spoke, "Feel the resentment in there, it's too much of a great deal to use such a heavy evil power to cover our ears and eyes, isn't it? I'd rather use such a huge grudge to create more high-level undead creatures, such as the existence of banshee ghosts, this kind of high-level goods are extremely threatening to our ordinary warriors on the battlefield, think about it, when the enemy and the enemy are fighting, a banshee bursts into the crowd with a howl of death, what a terrifying lethality, and we have very little way to deal with this, unless we don't care about our own colleagues and preemptively use mass destruction magic to clear the field. ”

Orlando and the others nodded slowly, they had to admit that Ryan's words were very reasonable, but no matter how much they said now, it was all speculation, and there were too many possibilities. Faras thought for a moment and said, "So, Ryan, is there a way for you to forcibly tear through the black mist? ”

Ryan smiled at his wife, and he explained, "This question, in fact, I have already answered, even if I have the means to temporarily break through those black fogs, but you are sure that what appears in front of us, must be true? ”

"It's not going to work, it's not going to work, what should I do? Farath said sullenly: "This crusade, our time is very tight, if we spend too much time here, then ......"

"Don't worry, Fani, there will be a way. Ryan comforted Faras.

"Why don't you let me try?" Red, who had been standing next to him and had been silent, suddenly spoke.

"Well, your light magic is the nemesis of these dark forces, and maybe it can really ......," said Faraz, clapping her hands.

"No, wait a minute......" Ryan interrupted Farrath's words, he turned his gaze to Orlando, and asked meaningfully, "General Orlando, can you elaborate on the previous incident, which is the one that drove the cattle and sheep in." ”

"No problem, but I guess it's better to let Commander Cross say it, he was in charge of garrisoning here before, and he commanded the entire temptation. After Orlando finished speaking, he made a gesture into the distance, and a man in his 40s immediately ran quickly.

"This is Commander Cross. Orlando first introduced the identity of the shrewd and capable man in front of him, and then said to Cross: "Commander Cross, please give us a detailed introduction to the situation at that time!"

"Yes, General Orlando!" Cross led the way by saluting General Orlando, and then to the others present, and when he had done that, he put his hands behind his back and began to describe the situation in a loud voice. The words of this Commander Cross are very capable, there is no superfluous nonsense, and he will not add his own subjective judgment, he is completely describing a fact, which makes Ryan and the others present very satisfied.

After the Cross Commander finished speaking, Ryan nodded, praised it, and then began to ask for some details, and when the Cross Commander gave an answer, Ryan's brows began to wrinkle, Faras was the first to notice the change in Ryan, and she quickly asked, "What, Ryan, is there a problem?"

"Yes. Ryan nodded and replied, "According to the records of our human beings, including the information of the elves, I clearly remember that this 'dark canopy' can affect the will of living creatures entering this area to weaken their combat power, but it has never had a function similar to the 'Finger of Death', nor does it have the function of spreading plagues. ”

"Maybe it's a new effect?" said Faraz.

"No, it's unlikely. Ryan shook his head and said, "Based on the results of our experiments, what is the best conclusion to be drawn?"

"Don't go into the dark canopy, it's better to attack with long-range attacks. Faraz said disapplauded.

"However, because of the darkness of the sky, we can't tell the location of the City of Bones in detail, can we? It would make it difficult for the siege machine and level 8 magic to work, so the only way to do that is ......," Ryan said.

"Forbidden Curse Attack!" Orlando, Clifford, Farrath, Red, and the others shouted in unison.

"If I'm not mistaken, under that black mist, there should be a super giant magic array, when I release the forbidden spell to attack this area, that super giant magic array will be in operation, such a large space, I deduce that the super giant magic array should be a forbidden magic spell!" Ryan thought for a moment and continued: " When the attack begins, it is likely that the forbidden spell magic of this magic array will also be activated, colliding with my forbidden spell to cancel it out, and then the uncontrollable energy will directly flatten this radius of hundreds of kilometers, and our army will probably be completely annihilated. Of course, it is also possible that there is another ending, such as the huge impact force after the collision of the two forbidden spells, there is nowhere to vent, and finally tear apart the spatial barrier, resulting in the appearance of a short void passage......

"Yes, the power of the forbidden spell itself is extremely terrifying, once it gets out of control, it will affect the extremely vast area around it, this distance will definitely exceed the safe distance of our garrison troops, and then our 100,000 elites will not even have a chance to evacuate! Orlando nodded and said, "Fortunately, Ryan, you sensed the enemy's conspiracy, otherwise this crusade would have turned into a complete tragedy." ”

"But what are we going to do then? Are we just going to vacation here?" said Farath indignantly, "Or go back to the imperial capital directly?"

"Don't worry, my dear. Ryan smiled and pressed Farath's shoulder to comfort her, and then said to everyone with a confident smile, "Now that we know about their plot, we've won a game, and the next thing is just to think of a safe way to break the game, it's not too difficult, isn't it?"

"Drawing a forbidden spell into a magic array? This is really an unbelievable skill, it is simply unheard of! I have to admit that we humans have too little theoretical knowledge about the use of forbidden spells, how can we crack it?" Clifford asked.

"Actually, in the form of a magic array, we can complete any magic, but the more powerful the spell, the greater the energy consumed, and the wider the area of the final magic array. Ryan said as he spoke, and there was a look of adoration in his eyes, which was something he had never done before: "What I admire the most is my teacher, Master Victor, who actually thought of using the technique of superimposing magic arrays to compress the cumbersome and complex magic arrays into a smaller space, this is simply an epoch-making feat It! ”

"Well, I'm a little off topic. Ryan smiled embarrassedly and continued to return to the previous topic: "Let's take the magic array in front of us that we can't see for the time being, since it appears in the form of a magic array, there must be various ways to gather energy, transmit and so on, but its area is too wide, which gives us enough room for imagination." ”
