Twenty Sided Dice

Chapter 275: dragged into the water

?

Wraiths raged among the elf troops, and the ancient tree of war was helpless. Possessed elves and normal elves can't tell the difference, unless they can always pay attention to the battlefield and judge according to the movements of the wraiths flying and swooping. But in this chaotic time, even the so-called well-trained elves are no better than orcs, and who has the time to pay attention to those? The superb martial arts and swift archery made cannibalism more violent and cruel.

In an instant, the elves lost one-fifth of their manpower, and the casualties continued to expand. Fortunately, the elf priest responded in a timely manner and cast a large area of ​​magic, covering the entire camp with the light of healing. Wraiths are undead, and they are partly composed of negative energy, and the positive energy of healing spells can cause damage to them. Soon, blue smoke appeared from the Wraith, like snow gradually melting in the warm spring sunshine. Under the anger, the resentful spirit concentrated on the area where the priest was located, trying to disturb their spellcasting with various negative emotions, so as to gain the initiative on the battlefield.

The priest of the Moon Temple loudly praised the name of the god, and the holy emblem shone with dazzling light, withstood the impact of the resentful spirit.

The only thing that is fortunate is that most of the ancient war trees belong to plants, which have good resistance to the possession of resentful spirits. If they are also chaotic for the first time, the damage caused will be devastating. The Wraith didn't try to control the tree at first, after all, flesh and blood were more attractive to the undead. But with the addition of the elf priest, the closer it was to the ground, the more difficult it would be to move, so the resentful spirits began to rush towards the tree.

Compared with the huge body of the ancient war tree, a single resentful spirit does not cause obvious harm, but a large number of concentrated resentful spirits can even be controlled by a giant dragon, and the ancient tree will not be spared. As the first ancient war tree no longer accepted the orders of the elves, and launched an attack with a huge fist, the elves priest immediately ordered the other ancient trees to gather immediately. And send special priests to focus on protection. The enchantment to protect against evil was expanded to the maximum, and at the same time, the gathered ancient war trees were ordered to take root immediately and not move. Any ancient tree of war that wants to get back on its feet must be possessed. It must be extinguished immediately.

The elf mages responded the most quickly, and they were the first time after the priest cast the protective spell. Teleport into a protected area with any door spell. Afterwards, the mages discovered that the necromantic spell was very ineffective, and even the force field energy missiles, which are usually best used to deal with ghost monsters, did not seem to be able to cause obvious damage, resulting in a timely and effective counterattack.

Is it only possible to rely on the priest's healing technique?

In order to stop the chaotic battlefield situation, a mage cast a soothing spell on the elf troops, intended to calm the tension and fear. Unexpectedly, this spell actually slowed down the surrounding resentful spirits, from a high-speed dive like an eagle's swooping to a balloon-like slow ups and downs. With just a few eye contact, the elf mage and priest immediately changed tactics. They work together in a tacit understanding, some use appease, some continue to fight the undead, and a small number of people start to try other spiritual spells to see if they have any effect on the grievances.

The undead were originally immune to mind control, and under normal circumstances, no one would have thought that such a method could be used. Resentful spirits are special, and the resentment of death occupies most of the body. The elf was lucky again, and found this solution by accident. They stabilized their positions, began to gather soldiers, and took advantage of the large number of wraiths and their slow speed to carry out spell strikes.

Siegel also left the hub control room at this time. Before leaving, erase the traces you left here: a small elemental disorder caused by the flame soul crystal can achieve this purpose. Before other mages come here, go down the spiral staircase to the bottom floor and walk towards the exit.

The glowing phenomenon of the Crimson Arrow Tower attracted the attention of many people in the hub castle. But this light was not obvious inside the mage tower, and no one noticed it at first. The mages, especially the official mages of the Knox Common Association, discovered the problem after a while from the abnormal fluctuations in the energy of the surrounding elements, and then hurried to the control hub. Siegel had already left at this time, and followed the secret passage out of the range of the Mage Tower, hiding among the residents of the Hub Fort.

Before he left, he used magic to change his appearance, and he didn't look much different from the refugees who could be seen everywhere. Looking back at the crimson spire, Wendy's shadow flashed in my heart. Siegel sighed lightly. He put away all the magic items on his body and slowly moved towards the west gate of the city.

The elves of Waterdeep gradually got rid of the harassment of the wraith. They formed a stable front, supporting and encouraging each other. Let the resentful spirit find no way to possess it for a while. The elves kept praying to the Moon God and melted the ghost's body with holy power. At this time, the red magic tower stopped attracting and controlling the resentful spirits, so these undeads scattered, and some of them came to Waterdeep City to carry out raging operations.

The relieved elves were full of rage, and their spellcasters were certain that the attack was carried out by a human mage with the help of a magic tower. Looking at the devastated camp, looking at the corpses in the dust, they had no other choice.

The elven mages then attacked Waterdeep. They summoned thundercloud storms and sky fire meteors and blasted them in the direction of the Three Peaks Pagoda. The protection spell of the Association of Mages responded immediately, rebounding all the lightning and meteors that came down. Upon seeing this, the elf mage kept reciting the spell, redirected the magic that flew towards the elf back, and smashed it on the temporary wall of Waterdeep City.

At the same time, the ancient war tree stood up and began to advance in the direction of Waterdeep. They stopped when they came out of the catapult's range, planted their roots firmly on the ground, took a deep breath, and prepared for a super long-distance throw. Whenever any spellcaster or air unit appears, they will be struck by them.

Under the attack of magic, the defenders of Waterdeep City fled, and a few heroic knights insisted on the city's head, trying to control the trebuchet to launch a counterattack. The ancient tree of war made them understand the consequences of being too conspicuous on the battlefield before they died. After being directly hit by the javelin used to slay the dragon, the knight's whole body exploded under the impact, turning into a red rain. on the ground.

The mage of the Three Peaks Pagoda looked at the thunderclouds and bolides falling from the top of his head in surprise, and the apprentices scrambled to hide in the mage tower in fear. Those who have become official mages are not worried, most of them know the strength of the Union's magic protection power.

Sure enough, the thunder cloud and the meteor were blocked by the protective array, and only the rumbling sound came over. If the magic circle is fully activated, even the last sound cannot come in.

These nasty sprites. Really bold, actually attacking the Federation? The mages talked a lot, guessing what kind of counterattack the Federation would take next. They looked at the Three Peaks Pagoda with expectant eyes. Wait for the magic tower to gather the power of the elements.

But the tower did not respond at all, as if it was asleep.

inside the tower. Kasper* forced himself to calm down, even if the anger in his heart was like a volcano about to erupt, he could not lose his mind. Just yesterday, "The Lion King" Alexander received an urgent letter from the Mage Association, asking him to go to the Xuecheng to mediate the conflict between the two princes of the Star Kingdom. After he left, he handed over the affairs of the federation to Casper for the time being.

Traveler William is still in the kingdom of the dwarves, and he is defeated in front of the Adamantite Gate. But finally was allowed to enter the top of Mora. It has been many days now, and William has not appeared again, only to know from his letter that everything is fine.

Casper seized this opportunity and issued an order to start embezzling the Mage Association, and the members of the Association were ready to act. At this critical period, someone used the Scarlet Red Pagoda to summon a resentful spirit, which suddenly pushed the Federation to the forefront. If it is simply summoned, it will not affect the plan, but these resentful spirits will attack the elves.

The elves' counterattacks were swift and decisive, even after they saw the Union's protective enchantment that could reflect spells. It didn't even mean to stop. Now when it is time for the Mages Association to decide its attitude, if it just keeps on giving in, it will definitely be a heavy blow to Casper's reputation. Don't say that the original plan was to close the teleportation array. Fighting in the name of independence and taking the first step to conquer the mainland, if he doesn't fight back, there will be doubts about whether he can stand upright in front of other mages today.

And no matter who caused the resentment, as long as the elf mages are allowed to attack without counterattack, the members of the Knox Common Association will have opinions. Casper believes in his ability to control, and the Common Association will continue to support and obey him as always, but what about those people in the original Master Association?

He needs time to slowly influence these people in a closed environment. Even with the help of magic. Wants to control their loyalty while retaining their normal spellcasting abilities. It's not a simple matter. In the process, any grievances in the mind will affect the effect of the spell. If the control spell is cast rudely. Simply using the strength of the spell to convince everyone will only get a group of puppets who can't cast spells, and it will not be able to strengthen the common meeting at all, so it is meaningless.

The timing was so coincidental that Casper had to wonder if the Master of Prophecy in the Academy had set a trap. It stands to reason that the plan of the Red God is like the most brilliant chess player, even other gods are unable to see through it, let alone make such an accurate counterattack. Liel, the most recognized prophetic mage, can only make vague predictions on important events, and he generally does not interfere.

Unless... there are traitors within the Knox Commons.

This possibility is also very low, but it seems most likely at the moment. All the control cores of the Crimson Spire were designed and manufactured by him, and only a few people knew the secret language for manipulating the emotional circle and the resentful spirit control circle. Unless there is a master who is higher than him, it is possible to crack the layers of protection of the control crystal.

There are not many such people, and each of them is very dangerous. It is also very simple to confirm, just look at the status of the control crystal on each tower. If the core that controls the secret language is intact, it means that no external force has cracked it, and it can only be done by someone who knows the secret language.

At this time, another bolide smashed down, leaving a rumbling sound, and the thunder also continuously cast dazzling rays of light in the magic circle. If there is no response, the wizards of the elves will soon organize a new offensive, using sound waves and light energy spells to strike - since sound and light are not completely blocked, there is an opportunity for protection.

Master Kasper stood at the window and saw those people who were staying in the open space outside the Three Peaks Pagoda. They all looked up at the tower, and the meaning in their eyes was clear.

He was faced with a dilemma, no matter how far from his original plan. Kasper took a deep breath~www.readwn.com~ his eyes became firm again. If this is a trial and a test, then you must be able to find a way to overcome adversity and embrace the final victory.

He clenched his fists, the magical barrier of the Three Peaks Pagoda was fully operational, a large number of elements gathered on the tower, and large-scale strategic magic was brewing. The mages of the federation cheered, and then stared intently at the spectacle. Few people can see a magical barrier of this scale, let alone feel its operation process up close. This is an extremely rare learning opportunity that no one will give up.

When the attention of all the mages was attracted by this magic circle, Kasper closed the cross-sea teleportation circle, isolating all the possibility of using magic to enter the Three Peaks Pagoda. Now all the Federation mages are under house arrest, and he is confident that he can control their minds during this rare period of time. (To be continued)

ps: It is very tiring to write in this style, and many words are not easy to use. What is "the wood show will be destroyed by the forest wind", what is "the first bird hit by the gun" or even "the first rafter will rot first". Would you feel very inconsistent if you appeared in this style of writing?

In the end, it can only be used to "let them understand the consequences of being too conspicuous on the battlefield before they die."

There are many more situations like this, but the pen power is not enough. what. what.
