Chapter 558: Battlefield Spell Confrontation

The ballista only fired six rounds, the catapult smashed two rounds, and the Treant Corps successfully advanced into its effective range.

They immediately retracted their steps, and the treemen with oversized wooden shields focused on defending against the attack, while the treemen who were protected by them stood firm and pulled out of their stance, and directly smashed the stones in their hands out.

There is no special case of hitting the invisible shield, and due to the fact that there are so many abilities to choose from, each mist enchantment is different.

Like Misty Snowel's Lost Lock, the Mist Enchantment that isolates everything is not impossible, but it means giving up the ability to block teleportation and block flight.

With an in-depth understanding of the Mist Barrier and the Mist Lock, Gavin discovered that the Elven Ancient Mice Lock was in a very special situation, and its power far exceeded that of the Mist Lock imitated by humans using the Mist Barrier, and in the Elven language, it had the meaning of hiding and disappearing.

The ancient mystical locks made by the elves, just like the other dimensions, can shroud and hide the entire city and even the region, including all kinds of isolations, which are not found in the mystical locks made by humans, they are just spell enchantments endowed with special abilities, which should be related to the reason why the ancient mystical locks of the elves are too expensive.

The human Mist Enchantment only needs enough spell casting materials, while the Elven Ancient Mystery Lock usually requires a lot of law magic power from the Supreme Mage, and may even be at the cost of life, and the power is naturally extraordinary.

Ivanaor's mist enchantment is the Nine Rings, and it can only activate three abilities, which are used to prohibit teleportation, flight, and invisibility, and no longer have the ability to isolate the inside and outside.

The isolation inside and outside of the fog enchantment is not the invisible shield mode of the misty snoel, but like its name, it forms a fog wall for physical isolation, and the ground defense is not air defense, and the defect is very large, and the city without a city wall will consider this option, and those with a city wall are generally given priority to abandon the choice.

In other words, it could be attacked by ordinary siege methods from the beginning, but Gavin was unwilling to let the conqueror army pay huge casualties and was unwilling to attach ants to attack the city.

All of a sudden, the sound of bumping against the top of the city was incessant, and several ballistas and catapults were on the spot.

Treants also have the advantages that these catapults do not have, they are creatures, the catapults belong to their skills, their special abilities, linked to the professional level, are blessed by a certain amount of magic correction, coupled with their own skills, the accuracy is scary, especially when smashing the big target such as the slingling rope standing on the head of the city wall, one smash is not daring to say, three or five shots will have a hit, it can still be guaranteed.

Whether it is a ballista or a catapult, it is a relatively delicate instrument, and whenever it injures a more important delicate part, the machine will immediately fall into a state of standstill.

The Treant Slinger was unforgiving, setting fire to the damaged catapults and ballistas in an attempt to destroy them before they could be repaired with spells—complete repairs could not repair shattering things.

Call! Call! Call!

Dozens of red dots rose from the walls of Ivantor and flew towards the Troop of Treants, growing larger and larger, and by the time they reached the top of the Treants, they were already the size of adults.

Third-order fireball technique.

Ivanaor's spellcasters have struck, ready to destroy the Treants with magical cannons.

Compared to ballista crossbow arrows and stone throws, this is their nemesis, most of the living plants have flame vulnerability, and the fire damage falling on them, even if it is not extreme, will be aggravated, and it is even possible to set them on fire and burn them alive.

In the face of their own deadly nemesis, the Treant Corps did not move at all, only the two Treants led by them raised the super-large wooden shield in their hands high.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

On the battlefield, the characteristic explosion roar of the fireball technique when it landed sounded, but the number was significantly less than what had just been seen.

Many people could see that the fireball technique that took effect on the explosion either landed on the treeman's oversized wooden shield or in the surrounding clearing.

The fireball technique that fell to the center of the Treant detachment was like a stone sinking into the sea, and with a pop, it was completely extinguished and disappeared.

Figures flickered and vanished, once again disappearing beneath the vast shadow of the Treants.

These detachments of treants are not made up of treants alone, each of them contains a transcendent spellcaster.

What just invalidated these fireball spells was the Four-Ring Spell Secondary Spell Void Enchantment.

This spell can be centered on the caster, forming a magic barrier with a radius of three or four meters, in which all spells in the three rings and below are disabled, even the fireball spell does not affect the inside of the barrier.

With the weakness of the Treants so obvious, and the Fireball Technique being the most frequently used spell on the battlefield, how could an army of conquerors not be prepared at all?

Thundered!

With a burst of thunder and lightning, the torrential rain was like a pillar, and all the oversized wooden shields in the hands of the tree people that had a tendency to be ignited were all extinguished, and the shield bearers moved the large shields one after another, letting the torrential rain fall on their bodies, drenching them inside and out.

Casting fire magic in a rainstorm will greatly reduce the effect, falling on the treeman, not only is it not easy to ignite, but at the same time, the vulnerable attribute will also be suppressed to a certain extent, which is the reason for the attribute restraint.

The torrential rain had a negative impact on the Ivantall garrison equipment on the city walls, and the crossbow arrows and stones fired began to become soft and weak, because the ropes used to fire the ammunition for the crossbow arrows were soaked with water, and their elasticity was greatly affected.

Of course, this torrential rain could not have fallen out of thin air on the favor of the conqueror's army.

It's the handiwork of a transcendent druid.

The Seven Rings spell manipulates the weather.

The scope of this spell was so wide that not only the entire battlefield was included, but even most of Evanthor was hit by the rainstorm.

Unlike the temporary secondary spell Null Enchantment, this spell was cast twenty minutes ago.

This kind of large-scale spell, especially the spell that affects the weather, requires a long time to be in tune with nature, and it takes a while for the spell to take effect.

Spell magic only helps the caster gather lightning clouds to form rain, not that spell magic is directly converted into rain, if that's the case, the consumption is too great - spells that go against the laws of nature are all highly expensive, half the effort.

If you follow the laws of nature, you will get twice the result with half the effort.

As a result, the final effect of this spell should be linked to the local environment and weather.

You can't expect the same effect on the desert as on the sea.

Ivano belongs to the coastal city, in the summer, the air humidity is very high, a little induced, it will naturally become a heavy rainstorm, if it is replaced by the Enooak Desert, there can be a light rain that lasts for a few minutes, it is considered to give enough face.

Sou! Sou! Sou!

Dozens of more crimson balls of light shot down from Evantso's walls.

This time, the tree people didn't dare to slack off, set up a shield of shields, and locked the red balls of light with the throwing stones.

For the same loss, Ivantis's casters shouldn't eat it twice, and these crimson balls of light are definitely not fireball spells.

It's the seven-ring spell Firestorm.

Avasuo's transcendent spellcaster struck, also in the form of a weak version of the fireball spell, but because its spell level was too high, it could not be vetoed by the spell void enchantment.

This is the suppression from the ranks.

It's like the hands-on effect of a fourteenth-level transcendent mage, which can top dozens of sixth- and seventh-level mid-to-low-level spellcasters to shoot at the same time.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Fireballs collide with slingstones in the air, causing them to explode prematurely, and this physical attack breaking method is effective.

It's just that in the air, hitting this kind of moving target is like hitting a big luck, only three or five are detonated in advance, and most of them still fly to the target.

Less than one-third of them really played a lethal role, and the rest either flew off track, or were blocked by a super-large wooden shield and exploded on it.

The rainstorm took effect, and the power of the firestorm was suppressed to a certain extent, and after dealing thirty or forty points of fire blast damage to the treants within the blast radius, it was flooded by the rain.

If it weren't for this rainstorm, the damage of the flame blast would have at least doubled, and even for the treants, the damage of seventy or eighty points was quite impressive.

"Ballista ready, put."

"Archers prepare, put."

Naturally, the army of conquerors could not allow Ivanaor's mages to bombard wildly, and began to provide fire cover for the Treant Corps.

The chariot has been pushed into the range of the archers, and the ballista and the archers on it are at the same time.

Thousands of arrows covered the head of Ivanthor's city.

The treant slingers raced against time to bombard Ivanaor's ballistas and catapults.

Before the second firestorm fell, the Treants had completed their first raid, destroying all the ballistas and catapults on this section of the wall.

Without the threat of ballistas and catapults, they retreated very quickly and scattered enough.

The Firestorm is down again, and its lethality will be further reduced.

The transcendent spellcaster seemed to see through this, so he didn't cast a second firestorm.

After a little trimming, the Treant Corps pressed up again, along this section of the wall, expanding the results of the battle on both sides.

This is the evil consequence of losing the initiative on the battlefield, and the conqueror's army can fight when it wants to, and retreat if it wants to.

The damage you did last time will be useless in the new round of battles, because in the time you went back to repair, these treants repaired their injuries by rooting and regenerating.

"Mean, shameless, bastard......"

"Ames is a devil who would do such an evil act."

"Withdraw, quickly withdraw the Tree Man Corps, and if it continues to fight, it will cause a large number of casualties among the ordinary citizens of Ivanoso, even if it is pointless to capture Ivanoso."

"But once this is done, it will be the success of Ivan Suo's treacherous plan, and they will have to make an inch of progress in the future, and use this trick in all aspects, we can't tie our hands and feet because we take care of these citizens, right, how can this battle be fought?"

"Too despicable, too shameless......"

The next scene on the walls of Evanthor caused the army of conquerors who saw the situation above to curse from top to bottom, but the other party's methods were even more vicious than they imagined.

Seeing that there was no way to resist the indiscriminate bombardment of the Treant Corps, he directly drove a group of colorless citizens of Evantor to the head of the city, and gathered next to those catapults and ballistas.

Destroying these catapults and ballistas will also kill a large number of citizens of Avansor.

Gavin and the others are here with the banner of justice, and if they don't care about the lives of those citizens of Ivanaor, they are tantamount to putting evil labels on themselves and being in the company of Avatho's necromancers.

"Let the Treants withdraw for the time being." Gavin commanded with a grim face.

"This isn't entirely a bad thing, the more we care about the lives and deaths of the citizens of Evanathro, the less easily they will initiate the transformation ritual and kill the entire inhabitants of Avaxor." Veranika reassured from the side.

"I know, it's just disgusted by the tactics of this group of evil people." Gavin nodded and asked, "Is there any news from Susie?" ”

"I'm about to report this to my lord, but the news from Grace is true, that abandoned warehouse does have a secret passage to the dungeon of Ivanthor, what should we do now?" Veranika replied.

"To do a play, you have to do a full set." Gavin turned his gaze to Catherine and said, "Ma'am, I hope you can personally lead the team to lead the Goliath Warband to raid the Ivantall Dungeon from the side of the secret passage, whether it is a trap or not, and hold off their elite troops for as long as possible, and then leave the road to you to deal with." ”

Breaking in from underground, the Goliath Warbands are not the best choice, as their size is easily limited there.

There is no way for the big goblin giants to drill into it, not all dwarven cities are built as grand and tall as dwarven statue cities, and most of them are still carried out according to the standards of medium-sized humans, between two and a half to three meters.

Goliath is a little reluctant to go deep underneath, let alone the goblin giant.

In fact, the Paladins led by Darnell and the Tampas Believers led by Eldan were the best candidates.

But Ivanath's enemies know where their elite are, and if the Goliath Warband does not appear, but the Transcendent Warband that they didn't know about it, they are afraid that they will be shocked and will launch a lose-lose trap in advance.

As for letting Catherine personally lead the team, of course, she wanted to use her legendary combat power and command ability to ensure that even if it was a trap, the other party would not be able to easily eat them.

"Yes." Catherine readily agreed, "In an hour, I'll attack from the secret passage on time." ”

She had already guessed what Gavin was going to do next, but she just saw through it.

After Catherine teleported away and prepared to sneak attack from the secret passage, the army of conquerors led by Gavin was not idle, and made full use of the forces in his hands to start a new round of spells and tactics with the transcendent mages on the walls of Ivendo.

The focus of the two sides is the section of the wall that had previously destroyed all the city's defenses by the Treant Corps.

After the Treant Corps withdrew, Gavin directly ordered the Lou Chariot to start advancing towards this section of the wall, escorting his army to seize the wall.

Without catapults and ballistas, not to mention ordinary bows and arrows, even if it is a fireball technique, the damage to them is relatively limited, and the twenty property chariots that charge at the front have been specially waterproofed, and have external thickened armor.

Not to mention, it's not just Ivanaor who has spellcasters, the number of spellcasters in the conqueror's army is now quite large.

There are kobold warlocks, elven druids, Thassel battlefield mages, and orthodox mages like the female mages of the House of Royhearn.

As the army of conquerors began to grow in size and reputation, more and more people took the initiative to take refuge, including those who were low-level wandering mages.

Using one's spell-casting ability to exchange more growth resources from those powerful rulers is a shortcut to the growth of these mid- and low-level mages.

Among the many mercenaries on the Dragon Coast, there are many spellcasters, and they are naturally the first recruits for the conqueror's army.

Most of these spellcasters are low-level spellcasters who have not reached the transcendent level, especially the low-level spellcasters who have not yet opened the three-ring spell casting ability, at this time, they are the most embarrassing time, whether it is the spell trick or the power of the spell, they are very unsatisfactory, far less useful than the wielded sword and longbow, and they are very unpopular with the mercenary group.

It's not that those mercenaries are short-sighted and don't know the huge value hidden by the caster, especially those who have cultivated it with their own hands.

But the precarious life of mercenaries makes them only have the ability to focus on the present, and it is difficult to have the energy to think about the future.

Not to mention individuals, even most small mercenary groups do not have the remaining financial resources, and it is better to directly hire ready-made ones to cultivate their own spellcasters.

Under the persecution of the conqueror's army, the spellcasters on the city of Ivantall could only compete with them for spells, especially the few transcendent spellcasters were the main force.

Directly in front of the wall of Ivanaor, they performed the wall of fire technique, trying to destroy and block the chariot of the property market with the wall of fire.

The caster of the conqueror's army directly came up with an ice wall spell that was also a four-ring spell in the original location of the fire wall spell.

The spell effects of both are directly negated, resulting in an effect similar to that of disarming magic.

Not only the Fire Wall Spell and the Ice Wall Technique, but also many same ring spells with opposite attributes have the ability to restrain and cancel each other.

For example, plant growth and plant withering, holy abode and evil dwelling, dark magic and illumination, and so on.

In desperation, the transcendent spellcaster repeated his old trick and tried to destroy the Chariot with a firestorm.

The conqueror's army didn't even pay attention to it, not to mention that the torrential rain continued, even if there was no torrential rain, these fireballs would not want to ignite the Lou Chariot, and the external armor added on it was not wooden, but was made of stone after repeated coating with a layer of mud, which not only increased a certain ability to resist attacks, but also mainly fireproof.

The defeat of the spell confrontation was directly fed back to the advance of the army, and the building chariot was getting closer and closer to the wall of Ivanaso, so close that standing on the chariot, you could directly see the situation on the wall of Ivanaso.

Countless Ivantas ballistamen, under the supervision of a group of undead, are transporting ballistas and catapults from other areas to this side - this complex tool of war, those undead without brains have no way to use it, and can only drive the citizens of Ivanthor.

The city walls are crowded with skeletons, zombies, ghosts, and low-level undead soldiers, ready to meet the army of conquerors.

"The goalkeeper is out."

The army of conquerors has made a new move.

More than a dozen shield-wielding tree men rushed out first, carrying a super large shield, and rushed towards the gate of Ivantor not far away.

Rushing out behind them were two giant elephant tree men, and behind them were dragging the iron rollers weighing hundreds of tons, the only difference was that the iron pillars on the rollers were no longer the rollers.

Rather, it is a giant board cart with sixteen wheels, and the iron pillars of the road are installed vertically on it, directly incarnated as a battering ram.

Dragged by two giant elephant treemen, it rumbled towards the gate of Ivanthor.

The commander of the city defense of Ivan Soo directly numbly claws, and he probably began to scold his mother in his heart.

The other party did not move early, did not move late, but when he transferred some of the ballista and catapult to the siege point of the building-type chariot, it was a little too late to withdraw or continue to transfer to the destination.

While the Ballista and Catapult are ordered to shoot wildly, the caster disregards the consumed cast.

There is still no way to block the opponent's crazy advance, most of the damage is blocked by the shield treeman, and the spells that hinder the advancement or cause greater damage to the treeman are neutralized or lifted, and those who come and go are ignored directly.
