"The only eternal thing in the world is death, endless death. Alexander's voice was mixed with incantations, echoing across the hillside with a strange hum. "Siegel, join me in death, your soul will be the best sacrifice!"
Sacrifice? Why did Alexander use that word? Where there is a sacrifice there is a sacrifice and there is a sacrifice target, so who is the one who comes to receive the sacrifice? Siegel struggled to get up from the ground, and pretended to be seriously injured. Although he still has the protection of high-level invisibility techniques, in the face of various area-covering spells, invisibility itself has no protective ability.
The lich suddenly screamed, the sound almost piercing Siegel's eardrums. Countless phantoms of the revenant flew out of the lich's body with screams, men and women, old and young, but they all had the appearance of decaying corpses. The spirits rushed in all directions with their teeth and claws, and several of them sensed the breath of a living person in Siegel's body and pounced on him. Siegel's death-proof enchantment spell takes effect, turning into a bright white transparent shield that blocks them.
Siegel's fingertips danced with black flames, and even invisible forces could not stop its light. Out of the flames flew a flock of firebirds, about the size of hummingbirds, capable of hovering in the air, moving forward and backward even more flexibly than hummingbirds. This is an improved form of the fire elemental minion, and Siegel has modified the spell by mimicking Baron's form. "Rush up, my friend!"
The black flame hummingbird rushed towards the lich from all angles, and the lich decided to use the power of the elemental protection spell to absorb the damage from it, and to exchange damage for damage, focusing on directing the flying ghosts in the sky to rush towards Siegel. "This is not a banshee howl. Squid boy, this is a ghost scourge!"
Alexander's body constantly exuded a breath of negative energy, strengthening the power of the ghosts in the sky. It's clear that their claws are starting to get a gray mist, and they can dig up a lot of elemental energy when scratching on their spell shields. The ghosts gather more and more, and their bodies shift from ethereal to physical. The impact on the surrounding material is increasing.
The firebird ignited the lich's body, shrinking all the bones in his body. Despite Alexander's screams of pain, the flames were not fatal. Instead, Siegel's protective spells were stripped away layer by layer, and each of the ghost's claw strikes had the effect of disenchanting it.
Seagal saw the negative energy aura that was constantly gathering on Alexander's two bones, and knew that the battle had reached the most critical moment. He knew that even if he summoned the Elemental Legion, he would lose to this group of ghosts because he constantly dismantled the magic, and only by virtue of his ability to control the elements. Those spells that are close to you are more likely to last.
The best way to deal with undead creatures is positive energy, which is called healing. Priests who believe in good gods can easily use positive energy, but it is a bit more troublesome for mages. When Siegel invented cloning, he specialized in the transformation between life and death, so although cloning is a necromantic spell, it has the ability to resurrect. As he once said to the necromancer Shelley, even negative energy can be transformed into positive energy with healing powers.
"The only eternal thing in the world is change. Even death is not constant!" Siegel raised his wand and fueled the ice crystals of the curse and the power of death—the core of the spell condensed with the power of Alexander, the Lion King. Cast the "Strike Necromancy" spell. This spell is a very basic spell, as simple as the Light Spell and the Mage's Hand Opening and Closing the Door, but it is an extremely rare positive energy ray spell in a mage spell. Siegel had conceived of modifying the spell to heal living creatures, but while it failed, it was eventually transformed into a positive glow enchantment with great restraint on necromancy.
Like a lighthouse, white light swirls around. The irradiated ghost let out a shrill scream, and the smoke-like body quickly dissipated, like a snow cube dropped on a soldering iron. The darkness was dispelled, the entire hillside was illuminated as if it were the middle of a summer day with a clear sky, and all the living creatures, in fact, Siegel alone, felt warm. Spirits lifted.
"Pastor Dawn, when did you convert......" The lich looked at everything in front of him and couldn't understand it at all, how could he become a priest who used Siegel to perform divine magic? Although everything can be exchanged and transformed is a saying that mages often talk about, but large-scale positive energy magic has always been the patent of the god priest, and mages can only have a similar effect if they open the door to the other world and connect to places like Heavenly Mountain. Siegel's actions have upended Alexander's mindset and urged him to decide the winner as soon as possible.
Fighting an archmage and fighting a priest of the dawn were two different concepts for Alexander, a lich. What worries it the most is that this priest who has mastered positive energy also has the spell-casting ability of an archmage! The lich's physical strength is much higher than that of a ghost, but that's when the priest uses the emblem to dispel the undead. When the positive energy shines on it, it will also have the feeling of being on fire. This pain not only acts on the body, but also directly acts on the soul fire, constantly eroding the existence of the lich.
Siegel's spells are unique and unique in the Thunder Wall Continent, but he is not alone in the multiverse. On a large road called Middle-earth, there is a white-robed wizard who is proficient in swordsmanship and staffing, and who is very good at all kinds of glowing and fiery spells, and he once used similar spells to drive away the ghosts and necromancers and their evil wyvern mounts. Siegel thought he had invented the spell, but it was actually the twenty-sided dice that captured the spark of wisdom and brought it to his mind.
Alexander forced the spirits to rush at Siegel, even if they were dead. For a moment, the black-gray ghost swarm formed a fast-moving whirlpool, and the cover in front and behind rushed towards Siegel like moths to a fire. The young archmage could only gather the light from his wand and turn it from a sphere of light that spread out in all directions into a beam of light to confront the ghostly vortex head-on.
At the same time, he was distracted and quietly unleashed a high-level demonic weapon on Stardust again. From the original fireburst and amulet, it has become sacred and destroys the enemy against the dead. Due to the aura of a high-level demonic weapon on the long sword before, although the effect has changed after being cast again. But if you don't pay attention, you won't be able to spot it. Siegel knew that Alexander must have been able to recognize the effects of the spell before, and if he hadn't observed the action of casting a high-level demonic weapon again, would he have recognized it again?
Alexander really didn't pay attention, his eyes were drawn by the positive energy, and he didn't see the casting of the spell of the high-level magic weapon. The moment Siegel raised his staff against the wraith, the lich moved. He took advantage of any door, instantly came to Siegel, and grabbed Siegel with both hands!
The ability to assimilate magical defenses was activated at the same time, so the protective spell on Siegel didn't react to the lich's claws. The lich let out a triumphant laugh, its claws had touched Siegel's clothes, and the negative energy was activated along with various curses! No living creature could survive multiple curses and damage, and if it didn't die immediately, it would be severely injured and incapacitated to fight.
The young archmage didn't seem to react at all, and he didn't even make any gestures to shrink and dodge. At the moment when the negative energy exploded. Siegel transforms himself into a skeletal form.
The Nexus skeleton, covered in elemental aggregate energy lines, stood opposite the lich, staring directly at the bare lich skull and his azure soul fire with tattooed eye sockets. Siegel's skeletal form used to rely on plasma energy, but now it relies on elemental aggregates to maintain it, and although it does not emit any negative energy aura, negative energy is still a healing and strengthening effect for him. As for those curses, how many of them can be applied to the necromancy, which hinder the body, destroy organs, affect the mind, and forcibly change form, all of them are meaningless.
Holding aloft a staff that radiates positive energy, the other hand gripping the sword of the Holy and Necromantic Breaker. A fully tattooed skeleton slashes at the opposite lich. Mages have long speculated that Siegel has mastered a necromancy spell, but it is believed that any spell must require a spell, a gesture, and most importantly, a casting time. No one could have imagined that he could change form in an instant. And it is also on the premise of using positive energy.
Alexander has quite a few protective spells on him, but most of them are aimed at elemental abilities. Siegel is known to be very powerful in elemental manipulation, and his Elemental Legion is even more powerful. Moreover, in Myr, in order to resist the attacks of the musket array, Alexander changed most of the protection spells against entities to deal with ranged attacks, after all, this can improve the protection ability. Siegel was carrying a long sword all the time. However, the lich's body structure is inherently resistant to swords, and Alexander was eager to fight in close quarters, not considering swords as a mortal threat at all.
The sacred, necromantic sword slashed into the lich's shoulder under Siegel's onslaught, slicing through the bones and digging deep into the ribs. Stuck there. Alexander wanted to break free, where would Siegel give him that chance!, he turned his staff in a different direction, and focused his energy on the lich. As for the ghosts in the sky, let them catch them! Whether it's a negative energy claw strike or a spell disarming, relying on the skeleton form is low enough, and as long as the lich is destroyed, it's not a problem.
Under the illumination of positive energy rays, Alexander's whole body seemed to be poured with sulfuric acid, and his bones became brittle and soft. Siegel continued to pull the sword sideways, drawing it from the lich's shoulder blade on the other side. Alexander's body turned into two knots, and the skull fell to the ground with a thud, grunting and rolling three times.
Unable to move the lich at his beckon, the heavenly ghost acted on its own will and began a frantic escape, away from the battlefield as fast as possible. Siegel kicked the lich's lower body to the side, shining with the light of his wand.
Alexander's skull was still moving, and the soul fire was still burning in his skull. The lich's "vitality" is extremely tenacious, not to mention that this is an archmage turned lich. Seeing that the lich's body could no longer move, Siegel stepped forward and stepped on the lich's skull, flipping it over.
Although you can still chant spells, but you don't have the materials to cast spells or cast gestures, the difficulty of casting spells will increase, and the casting speed will become very slow. Alexander knew very well that in this case all spells would be counteracted by Siegel at a faster rate, so he simply stopped resisting.
"It's useless for you to kill me, I'll be resurrected again and then continue to attack you. Alexander said with a sneer: "Your methods this time will be guarded against by me next time." Can you win once or twice, and can you win forever?"
"Looks like you don't know anything about cloning. Siegel tapped Alexander's skull with his sword and said, "It's not just the lich who can be resurrected, you're behind the ages." No matter how many times you come, I'll kill you. This is an encounter, and next time I'll have the support of Mir Core. Besides, do you really think I can't find your life box?"
