The flames pouring down from the night sky are a long river of scorching heat that consumes life.
Even a high-ranking mage like Nelem noticed when Forsman opened a series of plane portals, but he never expected that Forsman could actually perform such a large-scale arcane spell.
In an instant, the mages and mystical knights displayed their magical powers and tried their best to protect their lives, forcefully resist, escape and dodge, and counterattack.
I hope I can survive in this purgatory.
And Fusman's bombing offensive actually covered a radius of more than three hundred feet. Orange-red magma flow spurted out, and fireballs the size of a human head flew in succession for free. "Meteor Explosion" and "Sun Flame"
"Throwing a spear" is like sleet with the attribute of fire, splashing on the earth.
In just one offensive that lasted for six or seven seconds, there were thousands of casualties below. Many soldiers could not even talk about fighting, and they had no time to escape. The armor on their bodies melted like pieces of paper, and their flesh and bones were all gone in an instant.
The ground was patted into a smear of white putty.
Whether it was a "shelter" hut created by arcane magic or a carefully crafted magic tent, it was melted into magical embers by the extreme heat in the blink of an eye.
The central area of the military camp was turned into a pool of molten magma by Fusman's firepower in just a few clicks, emitting a red fire that stung the eyes of people in the distance and made them burst into tears.
The people among them are so cruel.
Of course, most of the spellcasters used teleportation spells in time to escape from this hell on earth. Nelem and the main group of mages dispersed one after another to avoid being launched by Fusman's concentrated attack.
But Fusman's offensive did not continue. He slowly breathed out from high in the air, and the breath he exhaled was filled with bright red flames. The fire elemental plane portals behind him were extinguished one by one.
"It seems that my current limit is to open sixteen doors to the Fire Nation at the same time, but I didn't expect that the pressure would be so great. It seems that I am still very far away from the legendary level."
The communication between the arcane matrix and the arcane ring level, the majestic arcane energy flows through the body. If it were an ordinary person, his body would have been torn into pieces by this power. Even Fusman, at this moment, was almost in a state of shock.
I can't move a finger.
Immediately, two high mages teleported to his side to protect him and asked: "Legion Commander, the night attack has achieved results, do we want to evacuate?"
"You launch another wave of attacks. They think they can reduce losses by spreading out, but instead they allow us to concentrate our superior forces to defeat them one by one." Forsman has always made such bold tactical judgments on the battlefield in the past, instead of relying on holding on to the defensive fortifications and following them.
Enemy confrontation.
"Understood!" As a loyal subordinate, the mages around Fusman have long been accustomed to his fighting style, and orders are issued along with communication spells.
Soon, a battle of spells took place on both the north and south sides of the military camp. Various "serial lightnings", "frozen spheres", and "missile storms" that were enhanced by super-magic effects created a dazzling splendor.
As if there is a tacit understanding, both sides try to output the spell as close to the farthest range as possible. This can be regarded as the habit of mage battles nowadays. No one is willing to rush into the medium and short-range fire net. As for sending soldiers to charge into the battle, that is even more important.
Don't even think about it, there are simply not enough lives to consume the spells in each other's scrolls and wands.
Ordinarily, at this time, a surprise attack force should be sent out. With the support of various high-mobility spells, they should rush in from the flanks and destroy the output array of the enemy spellcasters. However, both warring parties are not fools, and they are also on guard against each other's actions.
"Carriage! Drag all the Phantom Colt carriages that are not damaged and use them as bunkers! Let me operate the city-breaking heavy crossbows. They only fired one round of arrows. They must be too late to reload! Hurry, hurry! Run for me.
!”
The mage supervising the battle on the ground directly swung his staff to hit people with charred ash on his face. He also used communication spells from time to time to communicate with others to maintain control of the enemy's location.
A spell blasted into the air, blasting the dirt from the ground into the air two stories high. Large pieces of dirt immediately fell like rain. The soldiers set up tower shields, with mysterious knights behind them to provide support and observation. Dozens of people formed a team.
Cover the mage behind to ensure they have the opportunity to cast spells and recite spells.
While high in the air, Nelem had noticed something unusual about Forsman. He led a group of middle and high-level mages under his command and began to cast spells crazily from a certain distance.
Necromancy spells that specifically target the fragile constitution of mages counterattack with negative energy currents like billowing black winds. There are also "petrification spells" and "dissociation spells" that require a tough save to resist, and they can't be resisted under fire.
Light and lightning flashed in and out.
The two high-ranking mages beside Fusman covered him and avoided teleportation, and could not hurt Fusman himself at all.
"Okay." Forsman, who had recovered from a short period of in-depth meditation, opened his eyes again, like a lion overlooking his prey. This time he put away the clay tablet and raised his hand to unfold his unique "Flame Transformation Shield."
", absorbing and transforming all the arcane power coming towards you in one breath.
"No! Get out of the way!" Nelem hated Fusman's spell in his heart. Although he had destroyed it once before with the "Mage Disintegration Technique", he needed someone to cooperate to ensure that he and Fusman were close to each other.
, otherwise the range of the "Mage Disintegration" would not be able to destroy the flame shield that can transform the spell.
Fortunately, the warning was timely, and this time the "Yangyan Throwing Spear" summoned by Fusman raised his hand fell into the air, making him cautious.
Nelum looked at the blackened crown on Forsman's head that looked like it had just been taken out of the stove. He was surprised. He knew that this was once worn on the head of "The Fire Demon" Siddons, and was used to interact with the fire element.
The "Crown of Ashes" that keeps the planes connected is a magical object made by the "Fire Demon" after he captured an elemental king from the plane of fire and completely stripped out his essence.
Back then, "Fire Demon" Siddons wore this "Crown of Ashes" and turned the indigenous settlement into a sea of dancing fire. The scene at that time was much vaster and more tragic than today.
"Damn it, if I hadn't been kicked out of the communication crystal tower by you guys, I would still have a few powerful magic items!"
Nelem cursed like this, but he knew in his heart that even if he was still in the communication crystal tower, the few treasures he brought out would probably not be as good as this "Crown of Ashes".
"The Balrog" Sidons was already a legendary mage when he made the "Crown of Ashes", and he himself was very good at making strange objects. When wearing this "Crown of Ashes", any spell with the element of fire will
, no need to concentrate, automatically obtains the ultimate effect. At the same time, it is constantly immune to fire damage, because wearing this crown is equivalent to the arrival of a fire element king into reality. Not to mention that the "Mage Disintegration Technique" cannot shake this strange object at all.
.
In addition, second-level and lower fire spells, such as "Burning Hands", "Scorching Ray" and other classic spells, do not need to consume spell slots and can be used as long as you want. Not to mention the "Crown of Ashes" itself and the fire element slot
plane, you can open the portal to the fire elemental plane at any time.
It is true that only one "Immune Fire" can restrain most of the spells of this "Son of Fire Demon" to a great extent, but it is too much to kill thousands of people at once!
Nelem suppressed the roar in his heart. Fortunately, during these days, he had people urgently make a batch of "extreme cold enchantment" scrolls and wands. This special method of dealing with fire spells allowed the vast majority of spellcasters in the army to save their lives.
.
As for ordinary soldiers, the worst they can do is to spend money to recruit them from Black Rock Province. Anyway, in the fertile land, colonists come every year, and if one group dies, there will be another group!
However, when Nelem was still thinking about whether to use "Banshee's Wail" or "Force Field Whip" to deal with Forsman, the other party seemed to suddenly show anger and glared at him inexplicably. Then he didn't know who his opponent was.
What he said, the light and shadow of the teleportation spell flashed in succession, and he suddenly escaped without a trace!
"This... you can come when you want and leave when you want?!" Nelem was so angry that he stamped his feet in mid-air.
…
As a burst of dense and orderly green light swept across, the city gate in the southeast of Huowu City collapsed. As if being hit by a special "dissociation spell", a circle of wall buildings around the city gate shattered into cubes.
, scattered on the ground, like countless children's building block toys.
"The mission is completed, leave now!" The high mage under Nelem looked at the corpses of the legionnaires not far away, and was filled with joy.
Ever since I was reminded by Xuan Weizi that Fusman had led a group of elite mages to raid Nelem's army, the flaw in the Imperial Legion's ability to control Fire Dance City was immediately exposed.
The high mage first secretly contacted some of his former subordinates in the outer city, asking them to incite people to cause trouble in the isolated city, attack the Imperial Legion, and lure the other party to transfer their personnel, while he waited for opportunities to destroy the city's fortifications.
Destruction is always easier than construction, especially since there are a large number of arcane spells hidden inside and outside the city gate. As long as these spells storing arcane power are directed to collide with each other, the entire city gate's architectural structure can collapse. Compared with using
"Dispel magic" removes the spell blessing bit by bit, and then uses the evocation and conjuration systems to bombard it. This method is much faster.
Moreover, this kind of trick would be impossible to detect if one were not stationed in Fire Dance City all year round and responsible for maintaining the city wall spells. Moreover, it is related to the important matters of city defense, and only a very few high-ranking mages, including Nelem, know about it. Even Fusman himself
Not even sure!
As a result, there is a gap in Huowu City. Even if the imperial army steps up to repair it, it is destined to be a vulnerable link. There will be no time to add "copper wall and iron wall" and other spells, so that the city-breaking ballistae and the siege golem can be fired upon collision.
So when Forsman heard the news that the city wall was destroyed, he teleported and rushed back to Huowu City, his face was extremely ugly.
"It's this kind of trick again!" Forsman looked at the cube of masonry fragments and cursed: "The superficial behavior always hides the true intention. This is definitely Dr. Olenso's trick!"
Fen Byron was also on the side at this moment. He had urgently ordered the mobilization of legion mages to rebuild the city wall. He heard him say: "The legion commander means that Olanso has not left Fire Dance City?"
"Otherwise? Why else could I carry out such destruction while I was leaving Huowu City?" Fusman said firmly: "There is a traitor in the Governor's Mansion! Check! After I leave, look at whose communication,
There is something suspicious about your whereabouts!”
"There is one person."
"Who?!" Forsman's voice roared like flames.
"Dakiba is the bard of the 'Piper'." Finn Byron said: "He had been missing for several days. After the legion commander decided to leave the city for a raid, he seemed to have left the governor's mansion."
"Where is he now?" Forsman asked.
Fen Byron frowned: "He does not have a fixed residence in Huowu City. He just blackmails wealthy businessmen in the inner city and occupies other people's homes."
Forsman clenched his fists and cracked his joints, and said: "It's probably him! The 'Pied Piper' is always willing to make trouble bigger. What we are going to do will threaten the loan shark master behind them!
They cannot tolerate an independent country in the New World that integrates land, resources, production and trade!"
"I have ordered the search for Dakiba." Finn Byron put down a "SMS" wand and said: "But this person is insignificant. Once caught, he will be killed. The focus now is still on how to deal with Nelem and O
Lanso.”
Fusman's cheek twitched, turned around and scanned Fire Dance City, and said: "If that Olanso learned the news from Dakiba, it means that his background is also unusual. Didn't you investigate him before?
?Any clues?"
Fenbyron shook his head and said: "This person does not have any prominent identity or background. It is like he appeared in Woodpile Town out of thin air. Olanso is not a rare and rare name, so there is no corresponding connection."
"Is it possible that it was specially placed in Woodpile Town?" Forsman asked.
"I'm not sure." Finn Byron said, "But I think we can handle the fact that he is a psychic."
"How does it work?"
"Release the news that Olanso is a high-level psychic, and reveal it to the Eye of Mystery and the Ether Society." Fenbyron said: "The emergence of such an ancient and rare spellcaster, a high-level figure, will definitely attract people.
A lot of people are paying attention. We don’t have to deal with him personally. Some mages who are greedy for more knowledge will naturally use various means to spy on this Olanso."
Fusman nodded, then thought of something, and said: "Then the Olanso who is now in Woodpile Town...could it be a simulacrum clone?"
"If that's the case, I'm afraid more people will go to Chaihei Town to find out what's going on." Finn Byron said.
"I'll do as you say." Fusman immediately made up his mind and said, "Also, prepare my arcane armor."
Finn Byron was taken aback and said: "Legion Commander, that arcane armor hasn't been adjusted yet, and wasn't the previous raid a great success?"
"No, all this is not enough, I want Nelem to pay the price!" Fusman said: "This time I just killed and injured a large number of soldiers, and it cannot shake Nelem's foundation at all. Those who want to kill him will kill him.
All the sons and daughters of officials and power! Count every one of them, and I will crush them all to death!"
