Chapter 8: The Second Encounter Between Arcane and Divine Art
After purchasing the Wizard Robes, Xiao Li's Faith now becomes: -56/10000.
Along with the purchase of wizard robes, everyone was given a wooden staff.
"Please be solemn and quiet, and don't speak during the ceremony!" emphasized the priest who sold the wizard's robes.
"This is the proper etiquette to face Lord Casador!" Lao Zhou bowed to the priest, and then walked with Xiao Li along the flow of people towards the surface of the glacier.
"It feels a little strange to wear a wizard's robe to the surrender ceremony!" Xiao Li waved his wooden staff, making a majestic appearance, as if he was a wizard.
"I'm guessing. Zhou Qiang frowned, didn't continue, and changed the topic: "I think there is a problem with the distribution of faith points! We work hard to do tasks, but that damn priest makes a lot of money! Who is determining the distribution and flow of faith points?"
"Of course it's Lord Casador!" Xiao Li said nonchalantly.
Of course, Xiao Li has his own opinion on wearing wizard robes.
Casador had just escaped from captivity, and of course it was impossible for him to have so much power at once..... Combined with the introduction of the mission, a new wave of invaders has arrived, and Xiao Li guessed that Casador must be using ordinary people like them to scare those arcanists who don't know about the gods under the guise of wearing wizard robes!
Of course, Xiao Li is very interested in Zhou Qiang's thoughts, the faith value itself is the foundation of the faith guidance system, if you want to kill Casador, it is not so much to let Xiao Carp cultivate to a certain level by himself, and then kill Casador head-on, it is better to pin his hopes on destroying the faith guidance system.
Xiao Li thought for a moment, and then said: "But Lord Casador is so busy, it is definitely impossible for him to do everything himself.... Do you mean to say that these stewards of the priests are corrupting?"
"It's not corruption, they don't have the courage yet!" Zhou Qiang chuckled: "It's just that he uses the authority in his hand to make a little difference in the flow of faith points!"
Zhou Qiang's eyes shone brightly: "They did this to give me an idea! If they can earn faith points through trading, we can too! Earn faith points through hard work such as cultivating fields and copying scriptures, at best, they will not starve to death, if you want to make a big profit, you still have to rely on business! Are you interested?"
"Of course!"
Xiao Li and Zhou Qiang chatted while walking, in fact, Xiao Li felt that Zhou Qiang was a little dissatisfied with the current belief value system. But limited to the situation of strength and identity, Zhou Qiang could only be a little dissatisfied with the priests in the upper echelons, and did not dare to have any complaints about Casador.
.............
On the glacial battlefield.
Once again, the same tactics were played.
This is a scientific research ship, and the scientific expedition team of a certain country accidentally came to this iceberg, and the ancient historical traces of this iceberg made these scientists extremely excited.
They carried bags and packets of instruments to the depths of the glacier, trying to find out what had happened in the years that had taken place.
"Whew~"
The gigantic Frost Giants rose from the glacier, their axes in hand, and they charged with great force.
In just a few days, the combat power of these frost giants has been greatly improved.
The edges of the Great Axe reflected a dazzling light, and whether it was weapons or armor, the Frost Giant's equipment performance had risen by a large margin, which was obviously the work of those forgers.
This is not the first time that these scientific expeditions have encountered such an unexpected situation, and they seem to be well-trained, much more organized than those tourists at that time.
The personnel in charge of vigilance and garrison opened the arcane dark curtain for protection, and the scientific research personnel did not love to fight, and evacuated to the scientific research ship behind them in an orderly manner.
The Frost Giants did little damage, and as soon as they appeared, they were stopped by the Arcane Veil.
Casador obviously couldn't let the cake slip away, and a dozen frost wizards rose into the air, a huge wall of ice blocking the path of the expedition's evacuation.
Someone in the expedition team set up a fire-breathing equipment, and the red fire dragon slammed into the ice wall, cracks appeared in the smooth section of the ice wall, and the ice surface was rapidly melting.
The fighters on both sides are very professional, and they are very calm in their back-and-forth with each other.
"Attack!"
The leading wizard blew the whistle.
The Frost Wizards immediately divided into two teams, one team controlled the ice wall from a distance and blocked the escape of the expedition team, and the other team rushed forward, and the wizards gathered the frost divine power on the Frost Giant's giant axe.
Enchanted sorcery was unleashed, condensing a huge divine power and slashing at the arcane curtain with great power.
The dark curtain began to vibrate, and even began to crack, the dark curtain released by the temporary equipment was not stable, and the power of frost invaded the dark curtain, and these small pieces of cold power merged into the crack like a spider's web, and the dark curtain was further destroyed.
Soon, the dark curtain was corroded by the cold power of the cobwebs and completely shattered.
"Oh no! The curtain shattered so quickly!"
"We don't have enough energy in our hands to release the Dark Curtain again! there's no way to stop the advance of these frost monsters!"
"Instead of sitting back and waiting, it's better to take the initiative!"
Several researchers saw the form, threw away the excess equipment, and pulled the staff from their bodies.
"Fight back!"
In fact, in the world where arcane art is prevalent, the arcane level has become the basic standard for measuring a person's social status, and only when they reach a certain arcane level can they join scientific research institutes or government agencies.
"Petrification Immobilization!"
These researchers were obviously specially trained, and their movements were like flowing water, and the first wave of immobilization unleashed the frost giant to the ground, and the powerful arcane energy reversed the material properties in an instant, and the frost giant's leg was petrified and fixed on the ground.
Another wave of personnel substituted from behind, while those who had released immobilization in front stepped back to rest a little.
The release of arcane arts requires precise calculations and is extremely draining.
"Strong Acid Corrosion!"
"Arcane Burst!"
Large expanses of concentrated acid are released, which is to corrode the Frost Giant's armor, and eventually the Arcane converges to blast the Frost Giant into pieces.
"Cobweb!"
"Petrification Immobilization!"
This is the Arcane Legion's standard configuration of control spells and attack spells, and the personnel who had just rested for a moment rushed up again and continued to unleash the immobilization technique.
Petrification Immobilization, Strong Acid Corrosion, and Arcane Burst are the most standard and easiest to release Arcane, and releasing Arcane itself is an extremely difficult thing, especially on the battlefield It is even more difficult to release Arcane, if the Arcane Release fails, it will be counterattacked, and in such a panicked situation, such a counterattack can be organized, and the Arcane quality of this scientific researcher can be seen.
This time, the target of the petrification spell was those flying in the sky, and the arcanists first used the spider web technique to reduce the movement of the frost wizards, and then released the petrification fixation technique to drag the frost wizards to the hand.
Compared to the flexible spell casting of the Arcanists, this group of frost wizards was much slower, hurriedly unleashing protective spells, but they were entangled in spider webs.
The frost wizard, unable to get rid of the cobwebs, was immediately petrified and his feet were petrified.
Then came the ferocious Acid Corrosion and Arcane Blasts, these Frost Wizards were not a combination of Arcanists at all, but only caused some panic, and these Frost Wizards and Frost Giants were eliminated by the Arcanists in a matter of moments.
Although the Arcanists consume a lot, they do little damage.
These arcanists are not in love with their opponents after they have eliminated them, they are well-moved and skillful, and they do not hesitate to retreat after melting the ice wall with a flamethrower.
"Frost is coming!~"
Casador in the distance finally couldn't help but make a move, and the Frost God Domain was released, and the cold and frost greatly reduced the ability of these arcanists, and the arcanists were trapped again.
In the distance, larger creatures in wizarding robes flew over.
"Knock! knock... Boom!"
The sound of the iceberg shaking, this is Casador running towards here, his huge body fell on the glacier and caused the glacier to shake hugely, every foot seemed to step on the iceberg, each foot formed a huge crack in the iceberg, but in an instant, the ice surface on the ground that was broken like a spider's web quickly condensed under the extreme cold.
A god the size of a mountain, with a cloud above his head, this is Casador, the Sage of Frost, who raised an axe the size of a mountain and smashed it into the ice!
The powerful divine power tumbled and stirred, forming a huge whirlwind.
Dense clouds of frost wizards flying up from afar also approached, wearing the delicate robes of the frost wizards, holding wooden staffs in their hands, dancing and praying.
The Arcanists had gone through the battle they had just fought and were no longer capable of organizing a large-scale counterattack.
"Retreat!"
Several mid-level Arcanists unleashed shields and invisibility on themselves in an attempt to escape the Frost Domain.
But Casador's power seems to be stronger than the last time, his divine domain is more condensed, and his divine power is more powerful, and the ice slag swept by the whirlwind has formed a colloidal state in the entire divine domain. The stealth technique didn't work at all, and the protective shield could only barely resist the scratches of the frost, unable to resist the biting chill.
"Frost Spirit, obey my call!"
Casador's voice seemed to fall from the nine heavens, and the dead frost giants rose to life in the realm, their massive bodies standing in front of the Arcanist, blocking out the sunlight and forming a huge shadow.
The Arcanists in the shadows trembled, they were just ordinary scientists, and the battle they had just fought was already the limit of their abilities.
The heavens are crowded with sorcerers, the monsters that are constantly resurrecting from the glaciers on the ground, and the mountains in the distance...... The enemy was too strong, and these determined arcanists began to lose their will to fight.
