Chapter 608: Spell Blocks
The sky is as bright as day, and the thunderbolts fall to the rhythm of the most intense drums. Siegel forced and crushed Rieel's defensive array with the three elements, and now it was time to harvest.
The Great Prophet no longer has any protective spells on his body, so he can only take out a defensive talisman to resist. But under Siegel's indiscriminate bombardment, the power of the talisman seemed to be a drop in the bucket, and even the force field barrier could not last for five seconds. Not to mention the threat not only from the lightning overhead, but also from the ever-spreading power of ice, as well as the rocks and ice edges that squeezed in with the movement of the ground.
"It looks like Riele is going to lose, he's already lost the lead. The dwarf slammed his fist and said excitedly: "This time I really have seen a lot, and elemental magic can be used like this!"
"Forget it, you just see it, and you don't need it. The dwarf shook his head and retorted. He is good at using the power of runes to manipulate earth elements, move rocks, dig tunnels, etc., but there is still a long way to go before he can form a "living earth" like Siegel did. In addition to the fact that the elemental power that can be mobilized is far from enough, the skill is the real hard injury. These things seem simple, but when they are done, they hide many secrets that no one knows.
"I'll have to ask Siegel how he did it. The dwarf looked at Siegel who was manipulating the thunderclouds, and his eyes couldn't help but be envious. "I knew he was so powerful, so I asked earlier. ”
"Shhhh The half-dragon man frowned, his wings and tail tucked away, trying to make himself as unobtrusive as possible. His senses were much sharper than the other two, having spotted the changes on the battlefield.
Siegel also stopped, took the vial of potion from his belt and drank it down. Using the wild cast mode can cause a grand spectacle, but it can also cause serious attrition. In addition to physical energy, the first thing he needs to recover is his body's keen perception of the elements.
Riel propped up a transparent ball of light, shielding it from lightning and ice. Complex text circulates on the surface of the photosphere. The vast majority of symbols do not come from the mortal world. Even Siegel, who had already mastered the Celestial Language, could only read and understand a very small part of it. Obviously, Liel did not have the power of a saint, but this ball of light exuded an atmosphere of holy power.
It was this ball of light that blocked Siegel's offense and bought Leel time. Siegel tentatively used elemental spells, but found that they had little effect, whether it was an acid ball or a fire arrow. It's like an egg hitting a rock, and it doesn't have any effect.
However, Riele also seemed to be unable to attack, and the ball of light also cut off his power. In this "eggshell", Liel slowly made up for his original protective spells, and made targeted adjustments according to the changes in the situation on the field. He was unhurried and was clearly very confident in the defensive capabilities of the ball of light.
Siegel was not idle, casually throwing a few circle parts on the ground, and using the earth element to control the remaining power of the earth and bury them. He did it while he was doing it. While saying to the three people in front of the magic tower, "Hey, you guys hurry up and hide, I can't take care of you!"
"The magic tower is temporarily closed, and we can't get in. We'll hide in at every chance, don't worry about us!" said the dwarf, knowing how serious a problem it was to drag his feet in battle.
Riele used a few scrolls to quickly complete the protective spells on his body. He untied the ball of light and came to a distance of ten meters from Siegel. "You've turned this place upside down. All the flowers and plants that had been planted so hard were dead. However, those guys couldn't get through the gates of the magic tower. That's good news. ”
Siegel didn't agree. If Riele tried to blackmail him with three inhuman mages, it would only reveal more flaws. As long as Siegel maintains the determination and ability to catch these flaws, he can make Liel throw a trap and thus protect the three of them. The hostages and the battle situation are always a complex relationship that is entangled with each other, and either side retreats slightly. will lose the opportunity.
"Oh, you don't have to be so careful?" Riele smiled and said to Siegel, "Apparently the Holy One of Murder is not in this overturned square, and the door of the Magic Tower is not open. This means that he cannot get out of the inside of the tower where he is hiding. The warm-up is over, let's show some real skills!"
Siegel understood what Riele meant, and the two of them finished their battle of strength, and now entered the skill link. Relying solely on destructive spells, neither of them can take the other, so they must weaken the opponent with other spells.
It's no longer a simple and repetitive matter of firing the Four Veins Divine Arrow, but it requires a broader and more flexible way of casting spells. Blindness, deafness, nausea, vertigo, petrification, paralysis, nausea, shock, trembling, fear, ecstasy, confusion, and energy drainion, the two mages change their tricks and cover up their tactics, attacking and defending while trying not to let the other party discover their tactics. What kind of spell power can be resisted with the protective spell on the body, and will this resistance expose the structure of the protection system? Whether the other party's gestures and spells are true or false, will he change his choice halfway?
There were no brilliant lights and shadows, no explosions and roars, only invisible magical fluctuations stirring between the two. The two of them were building a dam with branches, and the magic spells stacked on top of each other had to be balanced, otherwise they would soon be overwhelmed by the flood. The one who failed to ensure the balance would naturally bear the brunt of the problem, facing the magical energy that the two men had built up together.
At this time, a huge beam cannot be stuffed in, only the fine, small branches can do this. Both men seize their time to grab the most advantageous position, throwing the more difficult spells at each other, and using simple, stable, and efficient spells themselves. They all had sweat on their foreheads, and the difficulty of doing such a thing was comparable to playing chess in a five-dimensional world. If Siegel hadn't possessed the big-picture and nuanced analytical abilities given by dice, he would have been defeated long ago.
He made progress as he learned, and slowly began to gain some experience. Although it is not enough to make up for the gap in experience for a while, as long as you persist long enough, you can still maintain a close match. He also doesn't have the luxury of blocking all the spells that have accumulated up, and if necessary, he also lets some non-lethal spells unload. His own protective spells are not ornaments, and a certain degree of disadvantage is acceptable.
Liele was a little anxious. He watched Siegel improve and watched the opponent grow. "Damn the dice, they actually gave him such a high level of understanding! He's definitely going to outrun me!"
When abandoning divine power, there is a limit to the power that Riele has preserved, otherwise it is not considered to have abandoned his identity as a god. Although this limit is enough to deal with Sage-level battles, it is likely that Siegel will not stop at Sage. Others don't know, but as the god of knowledge, Liele understands it very well in his heart, legendary spells plus sage physique. It is very likely to ignite the initial divine fire. This divine fire is very faint, even fleeting, but at that moment, Siegel will have the opportunity to exert the power beyond the limit, the irresistible power of the rules.
Riele had no choice but to settle the winner as quickly as possible. He suddenly let out a loud cry and took three steps back. Where he had been standing, there was a heavily armed Riele, who continued to stack magic spells. And the newly appeared **** clone began to chant another mantra.
This change took Siegel by surprise. The spells in my hand were all wrong. Most mages will learn the technique of distraction and dual-use, and Siegel even has the ability to be distracted and used for three purposes, but he has never seen it before.
"You can't separate a spell that has the same spellcasting ability. Siegel calmed himself down and took the unexpected situation in stride. There will be many more times when the tide of the battle changes, and if you panic every time, the battle will be doomed.
After reciting the incantation, three magic missiles flew towards Siegel. The young archmage laughed dumbly, this spell would be completely blocked if it hit the shield. Nothing will work. Not three, even ten thousand?" he continued to pile up spells on the damned. And keep learning and improving in the process.
The phantom of the shield flickered, blocking two of the three missiles. The remaining one slammed into Siegel's body, leaving a burn mark on the mage robe on his chest. The power of a single magic missile is like being punched hard by an ordinary person, which is nothing to Siegel's strong knight's body. But this is the first time that Riele has penetrated Siegel's protection, and the damage caused actively and practically.
A smile tugged at the corner of the archprophet's mouth, but his hand was still unstoppable. He didn't expect to rely on the doppelganger's spells to win. But you can also force out one or two of Siegel's hole cards and slowly build up an advantage.
"The situation is not good, how did it become two to one, I have to help!" The dwarf was about to cast a spell, but was pulled by the half-dragon man: "Are you crazy?" If you dare to get involved in the spell field, it will cause a chain reaction!"
"What spell field? it's calm!" the dwarf Ke Ke was puzzled.
"You guy, you can only make things, and the magic sense is really bad!" The half-dragon man sighed: "You just stand here honestly, don't use any spells, I'll figure it out!"
He pressed his back against the wall of the magic tower and carefully pulled a crossbow from the space bag. "I was my first crossbow, three hundred years old. ”
"Can this still be fired? I see the handles are a little cracked. The dwarf shook his head in disdain, "I have a better crossbow here, but it doesn't fit the size of you dragonmen." ”
"Stop talking nonsense, it's useless. The half-dragon man said, "You must use a weapon that has no magic fluctuations at all, or you will wait to be torn apart by the spell!" ”
The dwarf hummed, took the crossbow, and muttered, "I haven't done this work in five hundred years." But his approach doesn't seem rusty.
Keko thought for a moment and pulled some crossbows out of his pocket. "It's for the Archer Golem, it's a little bigger, but it's all arrows made of adamantite gold. It's unenchanted, it should suffice your requirements. ”
The trio split up and offered their wisdom and knowledge to the old crossbow. Siegel received a few more missiles in the process, but his body did not sway at all.
"See how long you can last!" Riele snorted.
"I wish I could shoot!" the half-dragon man took his crossbow and took turns aiming with one and both eyes. He held his breath, his muscles tense, like a novice on his first adventure.
With a humming sound, the bolt glided in a graceful arc and flew straight towards the naked Liele. (To be continued.) )
