390. Perfection is flawed

"Fight back, fight back!"

"The refractive barrier won't last long! These damn monsters are using bullets and explosives to weaken the power of the barrier! ”

"Kill those steel monsters that shoot pillars of light first! Just kill them and we'll win! ”

Many figures rushed out of the subway entrance, each of which was wrapped in a crystal shell with countless facets.

These crystal shells, made of wind and rock and earth energy, are what wizards call "refractive barriers".

It is listed as one of the top ten classic magic shields because of its ability to refract light beams almost 100%, and is recorded in the textbooks of the Unas Ring.

Unfortunately, such a spell is magic, not wildmagic.

Its initial power is only one ring, and can only be enhanced by magic items or other spells.

In other words, even in the hands of the Nine Rings Battle Wizard, it was only about the power of the Seven Rings at best.

A large number of battle wizards with magical metal armor were joined by their companions to cast a seven-ring level "refractive light barrier", and then rushed out against the rain of bullets and laser beams to clear the way for the wizards behind.

After reaching the ground first, they did not hesitate to tear open the magic scroll and shoot the spell contained in it at the metal giant ape.

It's also embarrassing to say, at this time, the inner and outer spaces are full of metal magic, suppressing the power of most of the magic, and also preventing the Nine Rings Wizard from opening up a secondary plane and enhancing his own strength.

After many wizards discussed it, they found that the only effective means that could be used to counterattack were those magic scrolls provided by the wizard of Hothamus.

And the spell recorded on this magic scroll is none other than Li Nuo's "Thundercloud Technique"!

When a thundercloud rich in more than 100 million points of thunder and lightning energy appeared on the battlefield, the scales of battle suddenly tilted towards the wizards' side.

Violent and ferocious lightning energy raged in the ranks of the Dead Steel Soldiers, flying metal bodies one after another.

Dead Steel Soldiers have extremely high anti-magic properties, they are not destroyed by lightning energy, but!

The ammunition bags they carry, the high-energy ammunition in the ammunition bags, the explosives, shells and other dangerous things piled up behind the front line, but they are not made of anti-magic materials!

Just as the thunderclouds unleashed dense thunderbolts and swept across the front, a series of earth-shattering explosions occurred.

"Crackle... Boom, boom, boom—"

Lightning detonated a powerful explosive, which released a shock wave and a strong wave of heat, and the vibration of the explosion caused a further detonation.

Almost in 10 seconds, the line of defense constructed by the Dead Steel soldiers was broken.

Taking advantage of their blow-up to pieces, the sorcerers who were holding back their bellies frantically cast spells on the metal giant apes that fired laser beams.

The metal wizard who still has the strength to fight is doing his best to prevent the nine-ring wizard from opening the second plane, and he can't spare his hand to help his allies.

It's also thanks to the fact that the metal giant ape is composed of anti-magic materials all over its body, otherwise, they will be torn to pieces by magic as soon as they look at it.

"Something is wrong! Why aren't these metal monsters defeated by our magic! ”

"They seem to have amazing resistance to magical energy!"

"Did you just find out? Idiot! Run! We can't defeat this group of monsters! ”

When one person takes the lead in escaping the battlefield, a group of people will follow.

After confirming that they could not shake the metal monsters, the originally imposing counterattack team scattered in all directions in terror and became the target of the Dead Steel army.

Soon, the counterattack team skipped the white-hot battle phase and went straight into a state of rout.

Under the protection of the Veil of the Otherworld, several shadow fragments blended into the ranks of wizards fleeing from the battlefield, clinging to certain wizards with good combat skills.

Seeing that those wizards were about to leave the battlefield, Li Nuo couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

When the wizard leaves the city area and enters the wilderness, he can use the ritual circle to summon the Shadow Fragments and take the anti-magic materials in the "Shadow Skin".

Turning his gaze and scanning the battlefield, Li Nuo found the embarrassed-looking Merster near the subway entrance.

This guy was standing with a group of leyline wizards, and at this time he was under the cover of high-level leyline wizards, looking for a chance to escape.

When the barrel of the metal ape's laser cannon overheated, Merster and several leyline wizards seized the opportunity to use geotechnical magic to burrow into the soil and narrowly avoid the gunfire.

But before they could celebrate their escape from the ascension, several metal wizards suddenly appeared on their path.

The metal wizards used the hard steel barrier as an obstacle to stop the leyline wizards who were walking through the soil.

Not long after Merst and his companions were out of the predicament, they were dragged into the quagmire of battle by the metal wizards.

To make matters worse, Merster didn't have support, while the metal wizards did, and there were quite a few of them.

After forcing Merst and the others out of the ground, the metal wizard raised his hand and pointed at the nearby dead steel soldiers who turned their guns and aimed at Merster and the others.

The thumping of gunfire was mixed with a terrifying laser beam.

The power of the bullets and shells was still within the reach of Merster and the others, but that beam was fatal.

A leyline wizard failed to summon a refractive light barrier in time to protect himself, and the next second he was ignited by the beam of light, burning to ashes from the inside out, and the cry was extremely miserable.

Even if Merster, as a battle wizard, has experienced battles large and small, he can't help but feel like falling into an ice cave at this time.

"Oh, I'm going to die..."

Merster and his surviving companions held on, anticipating a possible turnaround.

The most likely to come to their aid are the other wizards trapped in the subway.

Merster looked back and saw that the subway entrance had been refilled with laser beams, and it was unlikely that a wizard would rush out anytime soon.

Looking around the battlefield again, there are only three or two teams, including myself, struggling to break through.

The despair in his heart intensified, and Merster's heart was filled with sadness.

"It's over, there's a metal barrier under the ground, and we didn't get out of the ground."

The companion next to him whimpered.

The laser beam pierced through the body of a companion and set it on fire.

As Merst mourned the death of his companion, a voice came into his mind:

"Count silently for 10 seconds. After 10 seconds, cast the Earthwalk directly downwards and I will break through the metal barrier to cover your exit. ”

Merst was in a trance.

He suspected that he was having auditory hallucinations.

How could he have heard Leno Jarvis' voice at this time.

“10,9,8,7…”

The countdown sound in his ears lifted Merst's spirits!

He heard it right, it was indeed Leno Jarvis's voice!

"Come with me, quick! Come with me! ”

Merst yelled at the two remaining companions.

“3,2,1!”

At the end of the countdown, Merst grabbed his companion's arm and performed the "Earth Walking Technique", jumping down like diving.

Their bodies were reduced to fine sand by magic, burrowing into the crevices of the soil, and flowing swiftly below.

At some point, an irregular crack appeared in the metal barrier used to prevent the rock and earth wizards from performing the "Earth Walk", and the three of Merst successfully passed through the blockade of the barrier, swimming in the soil and running away from the battlefield.

A metal wizard's curse came from the ground:

"Damn! What people are messing around underground! Why are there holes in our metal barriers? ”

"Stop those rock and earth wizards, don't let them run!"

"When did that hole appear! It's so weird! It wasn't there in the last second, why did it suddenly appear in the next second!? ”

The metal wizards shouted, and a small group of centaurs chased after the three Merst as they walked under the ground.

As long as there is soil, the leyline wizard's escape ability is not ordinarily strong.

The metal wizard who chased after the three of Merst cast several metal barriers in a row, but failed to stop Merst.

Like slippery loaches, the Merst trio were always able to maneuver around the metal barrier.

The metal wizards chasing after them were a small team of six-ring and seven-ring metal wizards, with only five people.

These five metal wizards couldn't catch the three of Merster, and they were very annoyed in their hearts, so they simply opened their firepower, no longer catching them alive, but moved with killing intent.

The five of them joined forces to cast a spell, turning a large area of soil into a torrent of hot metal, and the fiery red liquid metal blocked all the ways of the three of Merst.

This is the metal magic of the Nine Rings, and its name is the same as its spell appearance, which is called "Metal Torrent".

Not only can it trap enemies like a cage, but it can also melt enemies inside the cage with liquid metal melt at an ultra-high temperature.

Now the three of Müstert are absolutely invincible... Metal wizards laugh wildly and watch the fight of trapped beasts from their enemies.

"Bang bang bang!"

Several thunderous explosions exploded near the metal wizard.

Almost at the same time, the bodies of the five metal wizards were shattered by the ferocious non-metal cannonballs!

The metal wizard who was laughing and taunting the Merster trio one second turned into metal fragments scattered in the sky the next.

The hot liquid metal summoned by the five metal wizards turned back into the soil.

The three of Merst didn't have time to figure out what was going on, so they could only speed up their way through the soil.

After running for at least ten kilometers in a row, they had a little respite.

"Who saved us?"

"I don't know..."

Müster, listening to the exchange of his companions, shook his head and said:

"I don't know. Forget it, don't worry about this, get out of the polluted realm as soon as possible, and tell the Ministry of Magic about the situation here is the most important thing. Otherwise, those wizards trapped underground will definitely suffer. ”

After a short rest, the three of them set up a ritual circle to leave the polluted field.

When the circle was activated, the white light flickered, and the figures of the three disappeared without a trace.

On the other side, Li Nuo had already obtained the anti-magic materials in the "Shadow Skin" and was preparing to retreat.

He saw the picture of the three of Merster leaving with his magical vision, and he was a little helpless in his heart.

In order to help them get out of trouble, Li Nuo had no choice but to use a non-metallic mechanical spirit, that is, a sentry mechanical spirit.

Those few non-metallic cannonballs the size of a human head did crush the bodies of metal wizards in one fell swoop, but they couldn't kill them instantly.

After a short period of time, the metal fragments flying in the sky recondensed into five metal wizards.

Li Nuo used the "Veil of the Otherworld (Imitation)" in time to hide the non-metallic cannonball, but the force of the object was mutual, and when the non-metallic cannonball shattered the metal wizard, he also left some fragments.

These fragments were so small that Li Nuo couldn't find them for a while, covering them accurately, but they were later discovered by a metal wizard.

If these five metal wizards had gone to the Erudito Association with the powder left over from the non-metallic cannonballs, they would have been able to analyze the material of the cannonball and the origin of the material.

This undoubtedly left a big loophole for the perfection of Li Nuo's trip.

In the future, if he is approached by the Metal Ancestor Dragon, this kid Merster will definitely take the blame.

"Forget it... I am not alone in using non-metallic minerals from the Suman Islands. There are at least a hundred workshops throughout the archipelago with the same inventory. I could have used a few workshops to mislead the metal wizards into their investigations. As long as the operation is done, I still have a chance to remedy. ”

Li Nuo thought as he set up the ritual circle.

It was very dangerous for him to come and steal the anti-magic materials, and it was very likely that he would face Tulsali directly, so he didn't bring Dinas with him.

Once Dinas was promoted to the Sixth Ring, she could teleport over from the second plane and take herself with her.

According to gross estimates, about half a year later, Li Nuo will be able to enjoy this treatment.

Li Nuo stood in the center of the circle, took one last look at the dark and polluted field of the land, and then activated the circle, turned into white light, and left here.

After Li Nuo left, Tulsali, who was obsessed with cat and mouse, finally used the complex underground pipes to catch all the shadow fragments.

As a metal progenitor, Thalsali shouldn't have spent so much time.

But it had to be careful not to use too much force and tear the Shadow Skin apart.

Once the Shadow Skin is destroyed, its contents will be lost when the storage space is destroyed.

The principle behind this is exactly the same as violently destroying a magic pocket.

In order to ensure that the anti-magic materials are not accidentally destroyed, Thalsali must control all the Shadow Fragments as gently as possible.

However, when Tulsali examined the Shadow Shards one by one, but found no trace of the "Shadow Skin", this made Tulsali suddenly have a bad idea.

After using his psychic connection with the metal wizards to tour the battlefield, Tulsali became furious.

In the heads of all metal wizards, its voice sounded at the same time:

"A bunch of idiots! Rubbish!! You let the wizard escape!! There is a despicable thief hiding among the fleeing wizards!! He took my anti-magic materials!! ”

The metal wizards trembled, and the metal magic on the battlefield came to a standstill for a while.

"Tell me quickly!! Which wizards left the battlefield! Fast! There must be a thief among them! ”

The metal wizards hurriedly responded in their minds:

"I saw two professors from the Hotamus School of Nature leave, but they're just magical clones of them..."

"The two eight-ring wizards of the Thunderbolt Guild have left the battlefield, my lord..."

"There are also three Seven-Ring Flame Bull wizards, I saw them teleport away in a burst of fire..."

As everyone rushed to report, the five metal wizards returned to the battlefield from a distance, and their behavior of leaving the battle line without permission immediately aroused Tulsali's dissatisfaction.

Thanks for the subscription and monthly pass!
