Volume Four, Entering the Army, Chapter Eleven, The Battle of the Fortress
This is a huge underground cave, dark and silent. Even in broad daylight, when you look down from the entrance of the cave, it is pitch black, as if the mysterious darkness in the cave can swallow up the light.
A mage tower was suspended in the middle of the cave, motionless. Countless strands of gloomy mist-like black air surrounded it. Under the shroud of black mist, not even a trace of light from the outside world could penetrate.
At this time, everything in the mage tower was bright. In a hall on the ground floor, a group of mages were gathered together, discussing intensely.
"Well... the combination of corrosion and damage amplification may have a good effect..."
"If you add the loss of life due to aging, it would be even more perfect..."
"If you attach this compound curse to the Spear of Dark Flame, it will be a real destructive magic. The Dark Flame eats and burns the soul, corrosion causes the wound to rot and decay rapidly, aging loses vitality, and the deepening damage accelerates the effects of all magic..."
"How about adding curse and corruption? Corruption can destroy the resistance function..."
…
After Nilac briefly mentioned the corrosive effect of Xuan Yin Qi, the mages full of research spirit started a heated discussion. How can undead magic also achieve that effect?
One after another, fantastic ideas were put forward, and then proved to be unfeasible by the experimental results, and then discussed again and experimented again... Although they have not yet reached the final result they wanted, the process gave them endless fun and experimentation.
Several accessories have also been produced, all of which are powerful or sinister compound undead magic.
In the process of discussion, Nilac also gained a lot. Not only did he learn these compound magics, but more importantly, during the experiment, he learned how to improve magic, how to compound magic, and even learned
Some means of magic superposition.
The secret of magic experiments lies in the process.
Mastering the results of the experiment will only produce one result; mastering the process of the experiment will produce thousands of results.
If before entering the Mage Tower, Nilac still despised ordinary magic because of the power of Xuanyin Corpse Refining Technique, now, he has been addicted to the palace of magic, fascinated by its endless mysterious changes.
"There is no useless magic, it just depends on how you match it and how you innovate!"
From the simplest skeleton enslavement, you can progress to cultivating bone dragons; from summoning skeleton warriors, you can progress to summoning skeleton archers, summoning skeleton mages, and even summoning powerful advanced skeletons such as skeleton generals and skeleton kings...
If the dark flames are attached to the skeleton warriors, they will become terrifying creatures; if they are attached to the bone spears, they will become powerful magic; if they are attached to the bone spears to increase the damage, they will become more sinister...
Nilac also saw with his own eyes that after a mage superimposed the curse corrosion five times, a small wound quickly expanded into a rotten blood corpse.
Since corrosion can stack, what about the Curse of Severe Pain? The Curse of Aging?...etc.?
Nilac participated in the discussion of magic with passion, unaware of the passage of time.
………………
On this day, Nilak was participating in a magic experiment. A group of people were feverishly debugging mental power fluctuations and controlling the magic output...
Suddenly, a loud siren sounded from outside, and then the warning bell in the tower also rang.
"Attention, the mage group. Attention, the mage group. There is an enemy attack. All members of the mage group, please take their positions..." The voice of the old tower master spread through the entire tower through amplification magic.
The mages were startled at first, and then cursed twice, but they had to temporarily put down their magic experiments and walked into the war room together.
The whole war room is a huge magic circle. In the middle of the magic circle, there is a huge magic spar. The tower owner and five other old magicians are surrounding the spar. Hundreds of mages who are walking in one after another sit down.
.
The tower owner gave an order, and the mage tower made a roaring sound and slowly rose from the ground. Then, the room lit up, and a picture appeared on the surrounding walls. It was exactly the scene around the mage tower. Through the picture control, you can clearly see
Saw the enemy situation outside the city.
Not only this mage tower, but also twelve other mage towers rose at the same time. Among them, one mage tower was particularly tall. With it as the center, the thirteen mage towers formed a mysterious magic formation. In the tower, everyone
The magicians are slowly transferring magic power into the magic array. Through the magic array, the magic power is gathered into the huge magic crystal. Through the mysterious connection between the thirteen magician towers, countless majestic undead magic powers are gathered.
Stand up and form the strongest line of defense.
Marshal Agassiz led his army on an expedition and took away almost all the troops in the fortress, but he did not touch even half of the strength of the mage towers. As long as these thirteen mage towers exist, and as long as there are no problems with the tens of thousands of mages in the towers, Toulouse Fortress
Not afraid of any enemy attack.
The griffin knights in the dark sky, the steel knights on the ground, the silver sword knights exuding silver-white holy light, the bright priests as bright as the sun, and the infantry regiment charging at the front...
On the wall of the fortress, the undead empire army of less than 10,000 people looked at the approaching light empire army, but there was no trace of panic, as if the enemy they faced did not exist.
Suddenly, the spire of the mage tower lit up, and a black fog rose around the fortress. This was the result of the resentment of countless wars over thousands of years. The first line of defense for the fortress - the undead sky. In the black fog, all undead creatures would
Absorbing grievances will greatly increase their strength; non-undead creatures will be corroded by the curse of grievances, their strength will be reduced, and it will be difficult to recover.
The Bright Priests did not hesitate at all, and sang blessings and prayers together. The holy light in the sky shrouded hundreds of thousands of infantry regiments, which not only drove away the curse in the canopy of the dead, but also brought them the powerful power of faith. The infantry regiments were bathed in the holy light.
Light, began to charge towards the fortress.
The mage tower lit up again, and in the black mist, endless undead creatures, skeleton warriors, zombie warriors, ghosts, vampires, death knights appeared in the sky... Countless undead creatures and skeleton archers suddenly appeared on the city walls.
, zombie mages, vampires, death knights...even a large group of black bone dragons appeared in the sky...
Needless to say, the undead creatures swarmed toward the infantry group crazily. The swords and guns with a touch of holy power killed two skeleton warriors at once, and suddenly a black blade stabbed into the infantry soldier's body. It was an advanced skeleton warrior, and then, another
Countless swords and guns chopped the advanced skeleton into pieces, but immediately another infantryman was stabbed to death by the dense undead creature's random swords...
In the Empire of Light, these infantry are just cannon fodder. Only the heavy armored infantry have a slightly higher status. However, the heavy armored infantry are no better than ordinary spearmen and swordsmen. In the sea of zombies and skeletons, they are cumbersome and have difficulty moving forward.
Like a living target, although it is not afraid of attacks from skeleton warriors, it will be attacked from time to time by ghosts, vampires, and even advanced undead creatures such as death knights...
The war was raging, and the infantry regiment paid a huge price and slowly pressed into the city wall. Undead creatures continued to appear in the black mist, and the infantry regiment gradually fell into siege...
Blood and flesh quickly dissolved into the loose battlefield soil, and the canopy of the undead became thicker and thicker.
