Xerath playing at home completely refreshed Thalia's understanding of him.
In the previous battle, although Xerath's spells were all powerful, and even the aftermath of the spell easily destroyed the towers of Shurima City, Xerath at that time could obviously counterattack.
——While he was preparing the spell, Thalia could control the boulder dug out of the ground and counter it with the cooperation of Nasus.
Whether she takes the initiative to erect a stone curtain for defense or launches pumice stones to harass, Thalia can always fight against it.
But now...
The spell does not require preparation, the magic power seems to be flowing continuously, and it can be suspended in the air and move freely.
Three simple enhancements were enough to make Thalia, who had been trained by Kalya, almost completely lose the ability to fight against it.
There is no problem with Kalya's request. In a battle of this level, all Thalia can do is protect herself.
When the ground flow encountered the unruly bombing from the sky, she really didn't have much to do - in this subspace, there were no stones underground for her to excavate, and all Thalia could do was to dig under her feet.
I reluctantly pieced together a pumice stone for myself and drifted all the way.
However, although she was only passively beaten, Thalia achieved Kalya's strategic goals very well.
The main purpose of bringing Thalia here is to let her attract firepower.
Before Kalya took the initiative to reveal his identity and Nasus did not come over, Xerath's target could only be Thalia. After all, this little girl who escaped halfway was the one he had defeated in Shurima City before.
The main reason, no matter what the purpose, he will not let it go easily.
As for the other people, although Xerath would not let them go, they would always come first, and his first target would naturally be Thalia.
Even if it doesn't take long, Xerath will realize Ryze's difficulty and change the focus of his firepower. At least the initiative in the battle will be in the hands of Kalya.
And things developed just as Kalya expected.
After Thalia received the task of "saving her life", she was immediately targeted by Xerath as the leader of the invaders.
The furious Xerath bombarded Thalia with various spells while roaring at her where Nasus was.
"Where is Nasus? Where is the kobold hiding?" The arcane meteorite rumbled into the rune trees and splashed a large amount of soil. Even if there were rune trees to absorb the arcane aftermath, the subspace was still bombarded by spells.
The tremor continued, "Stop hiding, tell him to come out and see me!"
Thalia really wanted to be like Kalya, using words to interfere with her opponent during the battle, but unfortunately, under the high-pressure state of spell bombardment, it was a luxury for Thalia, who was exhausted to even take a breath, and wanted to use words against Ze
Lars retorted, saying it was completely impossible.
Thalia didn't answer, and Xerath's spells came one after another. Seeing that Thalia had no strength left to resist, a thick ice wall finally rose up in front of her, blocking the arcane impact ball.
"Who is Nasus?" Ino, who has learned the essence of Kalya, started talking nonsense, "Why, you were originally afraid of Vastaya with a dog's head?"
Such a nonsensical response caused an insignificant delay in the movements of Xerath's hands. Taking advantage of this unavoidable opportunity, large ice thorns spread out from the ground, mixed with them, and held up the rune tree.
A barrier was built to block vision and resist spells.
Ino, who has lived in Vazuan for more than three years, is quite familiar with these rune trees, so when she built this defensive barrier, she used Fengyu fir as support, salty oak as protection, and sand vine as the main body, using local materials.
, which made Xerath a little surprised for a moment.
"Ice spell, silver hair, turns out to be a barbarian from the north!" Xerath's tone was a little more dissatisfied, "When has Shurima declined to the point where outsiders need to intervene?"
In Xerath's view, no matter how Shurima declines, it cannot tolerate outsiders' criticism. He has been using various means to kidnap and assassinate the blood of the Shurima royal family, largely because these people have fallen for themselves.
, to lure outsiders into Shurima.
In fact, if the people of Nasramei and Uzeris had not rebelled quickly enough, I am afraid that the port governors of these two cities would not have been able to escape the murderous hands of Xerath.
When it comes to pride, Xerath is serious.
"The glory has long been in the past. The old guy who refuses to see the reality clearly can only show off his words!" Seeing Xerath taking the initiative to start the literary fight, Ino, who is Kalya's proud disciple, naturally did not hesitate.
He clearly demonstrated the results of his three years of study in Vazuan, "Escape from reality and hide in a corner, your Shurima is only as big as the mage tower!"
I have to say that Ino has really learned the essence of poking people's lungs. When she is in front of others, she always looks cold and silent, but when she is really asked to speak, her every move
One sentence can be regarded as real harm.
If he couldn't do it, Xerath would definitely not be willing to be trapped in a corner and just work quietly in South Shurima, a remote place in the traditional sense!
If it were not impossible, Xerath would definitely not be willing to use the achievements left over from the Shuriman Empire and use these rune trees to stabilize the subspace!
He knows much better than Ino what kind of virtue the former Shurima Empire has now. The more proud a person is, the less he can see this!
[Zerath] received [Provocation], and the [Provocation] judgment was successful. [Zerath]'s first attack target was locked at [Northern Barbarian Ino].
In the eyes of Xerath, although these intruders have some small tricks, they are not a threat to him at all. It is only a matter of time to catch them, so he naturally places his main target on Qingyao, who can kill everyone with just one mouth.
It was the real damage done to Ino.
As a result, Ino became the person under great pressure.
After being locked by Xerath, she not only had to face arcane bombardments with a sudden increase in firepower, but what was even worse was that she could clearly feel that the frost magic she used was weakening at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This feeling is quite similar to when she was in the Shadow Realm, that is, the Shadow Realm is rejecting her and rejecting her magic!
Xerath has used the authority of the space manager and is trying to weaken and block the frost magic!
For Ino, this is unmitigated bad news.
However, for Kalya and Ryze, who have been running away in the same embarrassment, the news is not bad at all.
Ryze also used arcane magic. When Xerath changed the nature of subspace, suppressed frost magic, and enhanced arcane magic, Ryze also received a field-enhanced BUFF.
As for Kalya, he has not said a word and just dodges defenses without taking the initiative to attack. The biggest reason is that he has not fully understood the properties of this subspace.
Although he already had a certain understanding of the subspace connected to the Mage Tower in his previous observations, Kalya still didn't understand the means of controlling the subspace at all - even if Xerath built this subspace.
The method of space is indeed an extension of Karya's theory, but this extension is really too far, so there are many things that Karja could not understand for a while.
However, as Xerath changed the properties of the subspace on the battlefield, Kalya soon gained a new understanding.
Even if it is not enough to control the subspace, it is not enough to change some properties of the subspace, but this is still what Kalya needs very much.
For Kalya, who has lost his immortality, head-on combat is definitely not his strong point.
He only has one chance to truly influence the situation of the battle. For this precious opportunity, he must be fully prepared!
……………………
Under the suppression of the subspace, Ino, who took the initiative to provoke, soon showed signs of being unable to hold on.
The effect of her frost magic is getting worse and worse. It is completely impossible to hold her hands together and shout whatever she wants like before. Moreover, the consumption of each magic is astonishing. As a last resort, she can only fight with the tower.
Like Leah, she summoned an ice floe under her feet, used her mobility to barely avoid the targeted heavy fire, and then went all out to deal with the covering fire.
The rune tree jungle had been bombarded by Xerath for a long time, and it could no longer be used as a shelter. The rune trees all over the ground even became an obstacle to Ino's spellcasting. After many years, she once again felt the rune tree's weakening effect on magic.
At this moment, under the cover of Kalya, Ryze, who had been preparing for a long time by unfolding the scroll behind his back, finally completed his first spell.
In the aftermath of the battle, his disguised mage robe had long been torn to pieces, and as the spell preparations were gradually completed, the talismans on his skin became as bright as stars, making people unable to look directly at him. If it hadn't been for Kalya's initiative
Covered with yellow sand, Xerath may have realized something was wrong and switched the firepower.
Now, Ryze finally completed his lengthy spellcasting motion.
I saw astonishing arcane abilities gathering in the palm of his hand, and the azure radiance almost turned into incandescence that could not be looked directly at. When another arcane ball was about to hit Ryze, the bright arcane radiance in his hand
He took the initiative to face Xerath's spell. After the two sides came into contact, the dangerous arcane ball seemed to turn into a harmless balloon, and he easily caught it in his hand.
Then, he threw the arcane ball casually, as if it was just a projectile thrown by a naughty boy, and flew towards Xerath. However, this "projectile" was really special. Wherever it went, Xerath had
All the arcane orbs were absorbed and controlled, and they turned around and attacked Xerath itself.
At the same time, Ryze held his hands empty, and at the boundary of the subspace, two arcane barriers emerged from his body and turned into a huge cage, covering Xerath!
The change in the nature of subspace has greatly enhanced the power of arcane magic, which has also greatly strengthened Ryze who uses arcane magic. Under normal circumstances, Ryze will never be able to use such a spell!
Xerath was shocked when he saw this spell.
However, he soon realized the problem and also understood that the other party's ability to use this spell was largely due to himself.
Therefore, facing Ryze's runic imprisonment, Xerath did not panic at all, but also mobilized amazing arcane power, and continuously began to bombard the weak points of the arcane barrier.
With the continuous collision of spells, Ryze soon became unable to hold on any longer.
The heart of Xerath is a world rune!
Even though Ryze had stored a large amount of magic power for himself through sigils and scrolls, as Xerath directly chose spell collision and focused the battle on the magic power contest, Ryze still fell behind without any surprise.
Downwind.
Can't compare.
It really can't be compared.
In this subspace, Xerath can use the power of the world runes to a certain extent. No one can compete with the world runes in a war of attrition!
At the beginning, Ryze's arcane barrier was just ripples under the bombardment of spells, but in just the blink of an eye, the ripples turned into cracks. Even though Ryze maintained it with all his strength, his eyes became arcane.
Even though the magic is filled with blue, the cracks are still getting bigger and bigger.
Finally, in front of Xerath with full firepower, Xerath broke one side of Ryze's arcane barrier before it could be closed into a runic confinement.
With room to maneuver, Xerath broke through the other side at a faster speed - as the two arcane barriers were damaged, the bright light in Ryze's hand finally turned dim, and the bright blue skin also faintly glowed.
Got some bonuses.
Even if this rune guardian used such amazing magic power to release a spell, after the spell was destroyed, there was a lot of backlash, and the whole person almost entered a state of overload.
Xerath, who had a real sense of crisis due to the previous spell, finally gave up on Ino and Thalia, who were just annoying but had no big impact, and focused entirely on Ryze.
Moreover, because of the previous "taunt exchanges", he also noticed Kalya.
Even though Kalya seems to have been doing nothing and is just mobilizing Huangsha to help others defend, Xerath no longer has any contempt for him.
Maybe this guy who has never taken action is the core of these four people!
Xerath guessed correctly, but not completely.
Just when he was planning to take advantage of Ryze's overload and take down Ryze in one fell swoop, the "masked man" he was secretly wary of took the initiative and stood openly in front of Ryze.
"Is this the descendant of Shurima?" Facing the arcane spheres coming from the sky, Kalya just smiled and waved his hand, "I finally met some capable little guy."
The next moment, in Xerath's astonishment, the arcane spheres in the sky disappeared with the wave of Kalya's hand.
It was not destroyed, it was not detonated in advance due to spell hedging, it was not destroyed due to control failure, but it suddenly disappeared under the control of Xerath.
"Come on, you relatively capable junior." Kalya took off his mask, revealing a face that was quite similar to Azir, "Tell me what you want to do."
