Connor didn't take Tulas' last words to heart, but Gao Fei couldn't let go.
Different from moody demons, many of the demon clan, especially high-level demons, are the kind of old scheming people who are good at playing tricks and manipulating their mentality.
The words spoken by the devil are false and true, and it is difficult to distinguish between true and false.
"Go home before it's too late"...
Is Turas's words a pretense, trying to disturb Kona's mentality, or does it have a deeper meaning?
Gao Fei thought for a while and had no clue. He simply put aside his distracting thoughts and looked at the trophies he had taken from Turas.
Level 7 - Advanced Teleportation, Blasphemy, and Rules.
…
Of these twelve spells, Gao Fei only retains the 6-level "Hell Flame Ray" and the 7-level "Law", and uses "Hell Flame Ray" to replace the original "Scorching Ray", which actually only occupies one spell-stealing slot.
There are three vacancies left.
"Hellfire Ray" is an enhanced version of "Scorching Ray".
Both have a range of 120 feet, and can emit up to three rays at the same time. They can either focus on one target, or attack three different targets separately. There are two main differences:
First of all, the lethality of each shot of "Scorching Ray" is only 4~24 (4d6), while the lethality of "Hell Flame Ray" is 15~90 (15d6), which is equivalent to 3.5 times of the former!
In addition, the "scorching ray" is pure fire magic, causing burning damage to the target; the black flames that make up the "hell flame ray" are genuine hell fire!
In addition to normal high-temperature burning, Hellfire also contains evil energy originating from Baator Hell, and imposes a "necrotic" curse on the subject, similar to necromantic magic.
Creatures burned by "Hell's Flame Ray" will not be able to heal their wounds naturally. They must first use medical magic to remove the "Anecrosis" curse, and then conventional methods can be used to treat the burns.
"Scorching Ray" is one of Goofy's commonly used attack methods. It does not do much damage, but the advantage is that it can bring in sneak attack effects.
"Hell Flame Ray" is also compatible with sneak attack special effects. After replacing "Scorching Ray", it is like replacing a shotgun with a cannon, and it has become Goofy's strongest single attack method at present!
It should be noted that the devils born in the Baator Hell are naturally immune to the fire of hell, so this spell cannot harm devils under normal circumstances.
However, this is not a problem for Goofy.
Because he also has an extremely abnormal legendary specialty, "Curse Fire Mastery"!
Using "cursed fire" instead of "hellfire", the flames change from pure black to black with a silvery luster. The lethality remains unchanged, but it can penetrate the devil's fire resistance and retain the necrotic effect. It is a perfect upgrade!
The second magic that Goofy stole from General Turas, the 7-level "Law", is similar to the "Mantra of Chaos" in all aspects. The only difference is that it only targets hostile creatures of the non-Order camp.
Now that Gao Fei has collected the two mantra magics of "Law" and "Chaos Mantra", the three camps of Chaos, Order, and Neutrality can be used to kill devils, demons, and the masses.
Yes, for mantra magic, neutral camp creatures are the most miserable.
Both "Chaos Mantra" and "Law" can attack neutral creatures.
Gao Fei even tasted a principle of dealing with others - there will be no good end for being a wallflower!
In addition to the "Law" and the "Chaos Mantra", there are two similar mantra magics, the "blasphemous words" that invoke the origin of evil, and the "Holy Word" that invokes the law of the highest good.
If the orientation of good and evil is taken as the horizontal axis, the orientation of chaos and law as the vertical axis, and absolute neutrality is regarded as the origin, a camp coordinate system is constructed. Almost all creatures correspond to a point on the camp coordinate system, and both vertical and horizontal coordinates are indispensable.
"Laws" and "Chaos Mantras" have covered all camp coordinates, and there is no need for Gao Fei to learn the mantra spells related to the orientation of good and evil, so as not to occupy two precious spell-stealing slots.
News of General Turras's death spread quickly.
The demon side, which had already shown signs of defeat, regained its morale and regained its footing, launching a ferocious counterattack under the leadership of Kona.
The "Thorn Regiment" on the opposite side was affected by the bad news of the death of their coach, and their morale was obviously depressed.
Although the devil's army has a complete command system, the deputy general who took over the command of Turas is not as capable as the horned devil general in all aspects.
Seeing that the momentum between the enemy and ourselves had irreparably reversed, the acting commander of the "Thorn Corps" no longer expected to eat up Kona's guards and decisively ordered the entire army to retreat.
Gao Fei did not participate in the subsequent battle.
A "fireball" exploded near the car window, exploding countless rubbles.
One of the stones accidentally passed through the gap in the car window and hit his projection.
When the projection was shattered, Gao Fei's consciousness was forced to return to his true body.
Not so lucky, but it doesn't matter.
The overall situation has been decided, and there is no need for him to intervene on Connor's side.
Gao Fei sat at his desk on the third floor of the castle and once again cast his eyes on the crystal ball on the table.
On the Western Front battlefield, Connor's troops have gained an overwhelming advantage. Next, they must cooperate with Bynes's army to attack Duke Belmonk's main force.
The news of General Turras's defeat seems to have reached His Excellency the Duke.
The Devil's side was cut off by the chariot troops, and the main force was retreating towards the gate of Tyros Fortress.
Obviously, the Duke of Belmonk realized that he could not withstand the attack of the two demon legions in the field, so he had to withdraw into the city and rely on the solid city defense fortress to resist the enemy.
In this case, Bynes's troops should take action quickly, bite the retreating Devil Legion, and provide friendly forces with opportunities to outflank and intercept.
The reality is unexpected.
Through the detection crystal, Gao Fei was surprised to find that the Guards Battalion of Balrog General Bynes actually began to teleport en masse and disappeared from the battlefield without a trace in an instant.
What did Bynes do with the Guards?
With doubts, Gao Fei quickly switched the detection perspective to outside the gate of Tyros Fortress.
Based on normal logic, Bynes led an elite guard composed of more than 300 high-level demons to teleport collectively. The goal could only be to make dangerous moves and block the way into the city before the demon army retreated to Tyros Fortress.
Pass the road!
However, there was no demon at all outside the fortress gate, only the demon troops responsible for city defense were waiting in full formation.
Seeing the well-organized city defense troops, Gao Fei had to admire Belmonk's caution.
As expected of the wily Duke of Demon Flame, he left no opportunity for his opponents to take advantage of.
