Lord of Arcane

Chapter 865 Extreme Micro Manipulation Counterspell
Unrestricted warfare is not something only humans on Earth can think of. Even in this magical world, the possibility of Unrestricted Warfare is higher than on Earth.

After all, every high-level mage or grand arcanist who is alive and comparable to nuclear weapons has his own emotions, and once they are in place, anything can happen.

On Earth, it is more inclined to collective decision-making and relatively rational, especially for big killers like nuclear weapons, or certain war behaviors that exceed the normal bottom line.

Generally, there will be a collective to make decisions together, even if it is only in a formal sense.

This avoids arbitrariness and suddenness, and actually reduces a lot of conflicts.

Of course, in this magical world, as long as the human grand arcanist or elf high-level mage who is the body of the "nuclear weapon" remains rational, there will be basically no unexpected accidents.

If he really wanted to, then Xia Duo had nothing to do. For the current him, he also said that it was completely force majeure, and there was no way to calculate it, and there was no need to calculate it.

If he even took the high mage's reaction and even the countermeasures, and he was accurate and dealt with it properly, then what would those great arcanists think?

Xia Duo didn't think about those unrealistic things at all. At this moment, he only had one goal in his eyes, which was to keep all the dozen or so elf mages.

As for the future, as many elf mages as can be taken away, there are not many opportunities to kill elves in an open and honest manner.

……

In Mind Link, Xia Duo constantly gave new instructions based on the real-time positions of each team on the battlefield.

——Mage Rodit, [Protection -2-4], the target has been updated.

——Master Dart, [Protection -2-4], the target has been updated.

……

A number of high-level mages who later led a team of mid-level mages quickly began to jointly perform [Protection-2-4] in the resonance spell book, a prohibition spell equivalent to an 8th ring, specially used to block send.

In addition to where the elf mages were, the target also covered a large area centered on them, even including Wyatt and others!

But it doesn't matter!
Almost at the moment when the prohibition spell came, the dozen or so high-ranking mages who had come to the vicinity long ago and were held still by Xia Duo also independently countered the spells of the elf mages under Xia Duo's order.

Although Xia Duo didn't know much about elven magic, he had no problem trying to counteract one or two, especially in [Projected Plane: Underdark], where he had specially received various assassination trainings against elven mages.

Although spell confrontation does not play a major role in the training, and they are all assisted in assassination, but there is always something, and it is not difficult to make various plans for Nai color magic version with Xia Duo's magic attainments.

This is also one of Xia Duo's confidence in participating in this joint operation of the Seven Towers, or the official term "Plane War".

After all, Netheril is quite sensitive when it comes to shadow assassins.

At this time, although there are only a dozen high-level mages, this is already the limit of Xia Duo's command.

Different from other teams who openly and jointly cast spells, at most it is the difficulty of information processing, and there is not much difference between actual command and playing the game by dragging the mouse.

But these more than a dozen high-level mages are all "true executors" selected by Xia Duo based on the strength of everyone's execution of his instructions before. In game terms, each of them needs Xia Duo's extreme micromanagement.

Even if you just take a step forward, or observe the state of the magic net from a certain angle, you must consider it very carefully.

In particular, Xia Duo needs these more than a dozen high-level mages to counter and interfere with the spellcasting of the elf mages in a discrete state, and to achieve an overall joint state.

It is a bit similar to the forced joint spellcasting before, but the dozen or so high-level mages are indeed independent, and there is no need to forcibly pinch the same source of spells, and the fault tolerance rate will be much higher.

But even so, this matter occupied a large part of Xia Duo's consciousness.

This part is not suitable for subconscious processing, after all, it is the first line of fighting.

Although there is almost no delay in the spiritual link, it will definitely take time to feed back information from the front line, to think about countermeasures on his side, to feed back instructions, and to execute instructions at the front line.

The specific instructions must be conveyed by the superficial consciousness. After all, the other party cannot accept the subconscious information. In order to reduce the time for subconscious and superficial consciousness transformation, Xia Duo will use the superficial consciousness to process almost all of them.

In addition, the more than ten high-level mages themselves were almost thorough in their execution, so they could barely keep up with the occasional changes when the elf mages cast spells.

—— Essus, move forward 4, the casting elements 1-ΞΩΟΣ, 2-ΛΙΠ, 3-ΩΨ, 4-Π, the abnormal point in the front left of the target.

——Frost, Forward 2, the casting element has been updated, and the target has been updated.

……

In this world covered by the magic net, any spell cast, even by an arcanist using the miniature magic net after his own arcane fire, will definitely affect the normal outside environment of the magic net.

And the influence is mutual, affecting the magic net of the outside world can also affect the casting of spells, which is also the origin of [Spell Counter]!

Compared with the simple and crude method of forcibly suppressing the magic net [Dispelling Spell], [Spell Counter] is undoubtedly more technical, it is simply the art of spellcasting.

Because it is not a specific spell, but an adaptable way of dealing with different spells, which reveals the caster's deep understanding of the principles of spells, the nature of the magic net, and superb spellcasting ability.

It is almost impossible for ordinary mages to use [spell counter] to fight against spells.

However, Xia Duo is not an ordinary mage, regardless of his level, at least he is also an arcanist who is proficient in the principles of magic, and this alone surpasses countless ordinary mages.

Not to mention, there are many projection planes and even knowledge on the earth, giving him a knowledge reserve and a depth of thinking far beyond that of ordinary mages.

At this moment, under the guidance of Xia Duo, only a dozen high-level mages have suppressed the elf mages. Of course, this is under the premise that Wyatt and others are still stubbornly resisting, and the large-scale prohibition technique is coming.

Contrary to Xia Duo's expectations, even at this time, the elf mages still retreated without thinking about it, which really puzzled him.

But the matter has come to this point, as if the arrow is on the string and has to be launched, not to mention this situation, for the time being, it is still beneficial to Xia Duo.

All he can do now is to increase his suppression.

No matter what the elves have in mind, or what backhands they say, it will be empty for Xia Duo if they don't show it. He can't be afraid just because these elves are hiding some backhands.

Even if he was there in person, he wouldn't be able to, not to mention that he was only commanding from a distance now, even less.
