Chapter 149: Angel Feathers
The area of the explosion was not wide, but all the sand golems within the explosion range were blown to pieces, leaving only a pile of fine sand in place.
However, before the surrounding sand golems could fill the vacant space, monsters with wolf heads and human bodies crawled out of the sand.
"Anubis! ”
Looking at the wolf-headed man crawling out of the sand, Najib couldn't help but frown.
If you want to be a good wizard, you must have a wealth of knowledge, and as a genius wizard who has entered the Quartet level for three years at the age of twenty-seven, Najib's knowledge of miscellaneous science can be said to be unmatched among his peers.
Of course, this is only what he admits to himself.
Anubis, a human with a wolf's head and a human with divine authority, the god of death worshiped by the people in the desert region, has the ability to control the life and death of all living things, even the life and death of the earth are within his control, and the desertification of the land is the embodiment of his power.
Of course, all this is just a fabrication, and there are only two or three gods in this world who have really shown their power.
However, since the image of the legendary god is used as the prototype of the puppet, the person behind the operation of these puppets is someone who is familiar with the mythology of the desert region. If a human being is possessed by demons, all the consciousness that belongs to humans will disappear, leaving only the shell of a human being. However, the person behind the curtain still retains his consciousness, which shows that he is not possessed by the demons.
Although he didn't want to believe that there were humans who would collude with demons, the facts that happened now made Najib have to believe it.
This attack, as mentioned above, is not a natural disaster caused by the demons, but a man-made disaster caused by humans themselves.
"What's wrong? ”
Seeing that Najib had been staring at the newly appeared sand puppet, the woman in the emerald green dress couldn't help but ask.
"No, it's nothing, it's just that seeing that these puppets can still be reborn, it looks like they're going to fight a protracted war. ”
Najib shook her head slightly, not saying what was going on in her thoughts. After all, if you know that a human has betrayed your race, it will take a big blow to the momentum of your side.
"Why, isn't it true that Lord Najib, who is not afraid of heaven and earth, is afraid of these puppets who don't even have their own consciousness?"
Leo glanced at Naji with a sneer, and held out his right hand out of the city. Above the index finger of his right hand, a magnificent-looking sapphire was shining with a fascinating light.
"A bath of ice crystals. ”
Countless tiny ice picks condensed in mid-air, quickly falling towards the sand golems on the ground, and the sand golems turned into fine sand and fell, and more wolf-headed human monsters crawled up.
"Yo, doesn't our Lord Leo think he's very powerful?
"There's no moisture, there's no way to freeze the sand. Les, hurry over and help. ”
Leori ignored Najib's tease and beckoned to a short man not far away.
"Okay, senior. ”
Les hurried to the edge of the wall, took a teardrop-like gem from his bosom, held it in his palm, whispered, and then threw it into the air with all his might, crying out, "Pray for rain." ”
Dense dark clouds suddenly gathered in the air, with the city wall as the boundary, and it instantly poured rain outside the city, and the sand was immediately wet, and the body of the sand golem became heavy due to the absorption of water, and the heavy rain washed it, and it was almost impossible to maintain its shape.
"Freezing light. ”
The blue-white light shot out from the gem in Leo's hand and flew towards the sand golem outside the city, and the raindrops falling from the sky turned into ice droplets and fell to the ground as soon as they touched the blue-white light.
At this moment, several wolf-headed men with stone staff outside the city read Najib's words that they could not understand, and a sand shield suddenly rose from the ground, blocking the sand golem in front of it, completely blocking the freezing light released by Leo.
"What are you doing, aren't you making a shield for them to defend against our attacks?"
Looking at the frozen sand shield that completely blocked the sight of himself and the others, Najib's face instantly darkened.
"How did I know they would suddenly come like this, besides, it's just an obstacle that has no mana to maintain, just break it. Cato, it's better for you, it's still you for sabotage. ”
Glaring at Najib angrily, Leo turned to look at the man on his back.
"Forget it, I'd better do it! Cato's fire spells aren't suitable for breaking ice. ”
Naji stopped Cato with a wave of his hand, walked over to the edge of the battlement, raised his staff, and prepared to cast the spell.
A black ball of energy suddenly pierced the frozen sand shield and flew towards Najib.
"Be careful. ”
Cato immediately lunged at Najib and threw him to the ground.
The ball of energy struck the wall stack next to Najib and them, exploding violently, sending shattered stones flying in all directions.
Najib stood up and looked over where they had stood, only to see that several tall stacks of walls had disappeared, and where they had been standing, large areas of land had decayed and desertified, and were slowly spreading around.
"Damn, it's a curse, it's really a demon. ”
Najib stretched out his right hand, and a small ball of light shot out from the tip of the staff, hitting the place where it was sandified, and a black gas flew out of the sand and disappeared in an instant.
A small pillar of black light rose from behind the frozen sand shield and flew into the dark clouds, which were instantly dispersed, revealing the still dark sky, and the pouring rain disappeared in an instant.
The moisture on the ground was quickly absorbed, losing the holding of the ice, and the sand shield that stood in front of the city wall collapsed in an instant, piling up into a small sand dune.
One by one, the wolf-headed men emerged from the sand dunes.
I don't know when, the sand puppets outside the city have all changed into the appearance of wolf-headed people, but these wolf-headed people are also a little different. Some are bare-handed, some are holding a stone staff, while others are holding a stone hammer.
Over time, the stones at the foot of the walls were gradually eroded and sandified, and if this continued, it was only a matter of time before the walls collapsed.
"If it's a demon, then it's easy to do. ”
Knowing that it was the summons of the demons outside the city, Najib's mood was much lighter, for these creatures built of magic, the spells of the light system were the most deadly.
Taking out an intricately crafted box from his bosom, Najib slowly opened it, revealing the contents - a white feather, which was the angel's fallen feather.
Angels, messengers of the goddess of light, represent light, goodness, and integrity. Although this is only a fiction of the Wizards of Light Society.
And this feather was given to him by Najib's mentor, and it is an excellent spell casting material composed of pure light mana.
If it weren't for the fact that there were too many sand golems gathered outside the city, and Najib's own mana couldn't unleash spells that covered such a wide area, he wouldn't have used this feather at all.
For the members of the Wizards of Light, the meaning of the angel's falling feather is much more valuable than its actual value.
