Chapter Seventy-Five: Britain's Counterattack
After a long time, the Divine Punishment Knights who were hidden in the shadows slowly stood up, and Tom, who took the lead, was still expressionless, but he was already thinking about what to do next, "From the mage's actions just now, we can know that he does have some kind of means to perceive the outside world, and fortunately, he was alert and used the scroll before him, otherwise he would definitely be discovered." ”
"A simple mage will not pose much danger to his own group of people, but if he cooperates with fifty Templar Knights, it will be different, even if all the people on his side, each of them is overwhelmed by a level, but fifty people together can still entangle themselves!
However, according to the content of their conversation, Tom knew that this mage just happened to pass by and helped the group of Templars, and his purpose was this special necromancer, obviously this is a magic addict addicted to spells! Years of experience have taught him that there is no need for this kind of person to be his enemy.
More than 200 Templars stood in unison under the South Gate, shining in the sunlight with a piercing eye! This magnificent sight cannot be seen at any time, and the effect of such a spectacular experience is more than just beautiful.
People in other countries and other cities may not know about the death of more than a hundred sacrifices in the Temple of Life, but this matter has long spread in Zemas, which has also caused some loss of prestige in the Temple of Life, although no one blames the Temple of Life for this, because sacrifice is not a fighting profession in the first place, but it was only overshadowed by the abominable necromancer when rescuing the wounded, but it also sent a signal to the outside world that the Temple of Life seems to be not suitable for fighting.
At this time, the appearance of the Templar quickly broke the rumors, and the high morale, fierce look, and the fact that he came all the way unharmed, all proved that the last time the Temple of Life was just careless, and did not send the Templar Knights to protect his sacrifice.
At the same time, the Harpermen's League also saw the wind and rudder the new newspaper, what kind of life temple is jealous and hateful! Send 200 Templar Knights to hang the spirit mage! Newspapers with this kind of headline are selling like crazy again! The eyes of the whole world are focused on Zemmas in Britain, as if watching a live broadcast, and the Harpists League acts as the medium for that live broadcast!
In the face of this situation, whether it was the supreme leader of the Temple of Life of Zemas, the chief priest, or the chief knight of the temple, they all secretly breathed a sigh of relief, both of them knew that for the temple, believers are fundamental, after all, anything can be forced, but faith cannot!
So in terms of destroying this necromancer who can devour the power of life, the two of them and Yulia thought of a place, that is, they will do their best to destroy this necromancer, otherwise if this necromancer really spreads on the mainland, then the Temple of Life will be really sad!
In a villa near the South City Gate, at this time it is no longer an ordinary villa, but was requisitioned by the royal family and upgraded to an emergency command post!
In the center of the living room is a three-dimensional model like a sand table, obviously this is a simulated map prepared for war! And the current Supreme Executive Merlin is arranging the task, "Everyone, since the people have arrived, then let's talk about their plans, on the battlefield, the passive defense side will always be the losing side, so if there is really any accident, let the necromancers invade the city, I think you also know what the consequences will be, the civilians and slaves in the city, whether for us or for you, It's all very important!"
Merlin's implication is that we need the productivity of civilians and slaves, and you temples need the power of their faith, so it's time to help!
"So," Merlin planted a few pocket-sized pennants in his hand in the cemetery outside the South Gate. First of all, divide half of the Templars, and let our Steam Mecha Guards and Mage Guards cooperate with this half of the Templars to directly destroy this source and cut off the necromancer's crowd tactics from the root!"
"One more," Merlin planted a small black flag on the main city, and then drew a huge circle within the scope of the main city, "We all know that there is a limit to the distance that the necromancer can control the necromancer's actions, and if the distance is too far, the necromancer will be uncontrollable, so this necromancer must wander around the main city as the center, and every time the necromancer gives an order to the necromancer, there will be psionic energy fluctuations! I'm sure I'll be able to find the necromancer!"
"And this task can only be entrusted to the remaining Templar Knights, if we find his traces, we will send a signal according to the plan, and then either I, or God Randolph, one of us will go there and deal with the necromancer with the knights!"
"As for guarding the main city and preventing that necromancer from taking advantage of the emptiness behind us to sneak up on us, the two of us will be left to the remaining servants of the gods and the Sun Temple!
The Sun Divine Envoy, who had been silent, suddenly said, "Your mage guards also stay to cooperate with our Sun Temple defense, in the face of those high-law resistance necromancers, the mage guards will also get rid of those knights' hind legs!"
Merlin, as a mage, did not show any dissatisfaction with such unkind remarks from the Sun God Envoy, because he knew that the people in the Sun Temple were like that, looking at anyone as if they were a head shorter than him, and again, judging from the previous information, he was right, when the spell lost its due effect, then the mage could only become a foil, and he had to contain some people to protect them!
"Please rest assured Mr. Randolph, we have found the reason for those necromantic high law resistance, and of course, the reason why they can devour the life force, we have also found it!"
"Really?" In the face of Merlin's bombshell, it was obvious that the people of both temples were a little surprised.
"According to our research, there are some magical creatures in the bodies of these necromancers, I call them [***] necromancers! Simply put, it is a very tiny life, so small that we can't see it with the naked eye, but it has all the characteristics of a necromancy, such as a certain number of these tiny lives can resurrect a corpse and become a moving necromancer!"
"And the reason why they have high-intensity magic resistance is because these [***] necromants can devour the psionic energy in the spell to strengthen themselves, and the maintenance of the spell without psionic energy is naturally dissipated, and it devours the psionic energy to make itself stronger, increasing and decreasing, which causes the characteristics of not being afraid of spells. ”
"So as long as we don't use spells on them directly, but let the spells have physical effects, such as creating a large-scale barrier through spells to block their way, and then heating the surrounding temperature through fire spells, and at the same time extracting moisture from the air, so that the spells do not directly contact the necromancy, but they can also make the [***] necromancers in the corpse die through this indirect means, and the corpses lose the so-called magic resistance, and finally ordinary spells can directly ignite them!"
"Is this also the reason why the Divine Technique of Life can devour us?"
Merlin shook his head, "Divine magic is different from magic, it is not powerful enough to devour divine magic, just because it is alive, your magic has an effect on human beings, and it is the same for them! Merlin said with some regret, "I'm sorry we just discovered these characteristics, if we had sooner, those venerable priestesses would not have died!"
"It's the same now!" At the mention of the priestesses, Angelina closed her eyes slightly, obviously remembering her dead companions, "Knowing what this damn necromancer is all about, we Templars will be able to avenge our dead sisters!"
After hearing Merlin's explanation, the Sun God Envoy also nodded, "I don't have any problems either!"
When the two people left, Merlin breathed a sigh of relief, and slowly took out a piece of parchment from his arms, the creases on it were faintly visible, no need to think, in the entire world of Ferron, Don Quixote was the only one who could make parchment of this shape, and this parchment recorded why those necromancers had such a high magic resistance and the ability to devour life, and of course, his statement, he had nothing to do with this matter! In fact, it was all researched by Don Quixote!
In fact, Don Quixote was able to discover the secret of necromancy, not that he was much smarter than Merlin, but that he was from Earth and he was obviously much stronger than Merlin in divergent thinking, Merlin, like Arthas, was a very traditional mage, so Merlin only knew that these necromancy were high in resistance and could make spells ineffective, but he didn't know, and he didn't think about why!
And even if he were allowed to perceive those so-called [***] necromancy, he wouldn't know what they were, just like asking someone who hadn't studied biology to look at germs, he wouldn't understand what those things were!
"This Don Quixote is really a genius," Merlin sighed after a while, "it was no more than two days from the appearance of the Necronomicon to the time he discovered the secret, and I really want to know what he has in his head."
"You really played everyone around, everyone thought you were a necromancer, everyone thought that you must still be in the vicinity of the cemetery in the south of the city to continue to release necromancers, and then look for opportunities to create greater chaos, all the forces were sent out of the city to arrest you, but no matter how much they wanted to break their heads, they couldn't guess that you were in the main city of Zemas, and you were not a necromancer at all, just an ordinary person without any mana!"
In the face of the ridicule of the man in black, Mitheus looked very calm, and leisurely put on a very strange style of armor, the armor was engraved with mysterious lines, which looked like a magic array, but it violated the theory that Don Quixote once said that the magic array must be closed, because the lines on the armor had multiple parallel single lines on the legs, arms, etc., as if they were suddenly cut off by the waist!
"Those who stay, I will let them see what is called real purgatory on earth!"
"Oh?" Huey Hale chuckled, "Have you really thought of a solution? I'll see if there is anything more amazing you can do? something more magical than using an "inaudible voice" to control the dead!"
"Isn't it even more amazing? There are enough corpses around the main city, so I think you'll be able to see it right away. But," said Mitheus, who put his helmet on his head, and at this time Mitheus looked like a fully armed miniature version of a steam mecha, "To be honest, I still envy you people who have mastered power, at least, you don't have to worry about being hurt by inaudible sound waves, that feeling is unbearable no matter how many times I come!"
