084 The Wind Rises and the Clouds Disperse
Spellcasters have two mortal enemies, physical long-range attack professionals and assassins who can escape into the shadows.
Needless to say, the latter is elusive and is an extremely hateful enemy for spellcasters whose reaction speed is relatively slow.
As for the former, everyone is a long-range profession, and the range is similar. Although the caster has magic such as arrow deflection and remote protection, the actions of the physical long-range profession are too sensitive. Single-target magic wants to lock the archer. It is quite difficult for professionals with high mobility, and group magic requires a long time to cast. During this period, with the foot strength of long-range professionals, they have long escaped the effective casting range, and bolder remote professionals will even take advantage of the caster. It is normal to attack and counter-kill while 'reading'.
But even so, if the caster is not impatient and takes every step, then the most dangerous person is the long-range professional. After all, the caster has too many methods, not to mention the attack ability, there are endless magic that hinders movement, and even It can also change the terrain and weather. Qualified spellcasters can use all surrounding factors to deal with enemies. This is a profession that relies heavily on creativity. The more creative spellcasters are, the more incredible their fighting methods will be.
If an ordinary spellcaster is locked by so many archers at the same time, the first reaction will definitely be to use magic such as 'Defend from long-range attacks' or 'Arrow Deflection'. But Liang Lidong knew very well that using these two magics would be tantamount to seeking death... Because in this case, at most, there was only time to cast one magic, and then the arrow rain would come.
Whether it is defense against long-range attacks or deflection of arrows, it can block all long-range attacks below a certain intensity, but the problem is that these two magics have a limit on the number of attacks. With Liang Lidong's current level, he can withstand long-range attacks (current charm x 10) times with an impact not greater than (3 + current intelligence attribute + character level) before the arrow deflection magic expires.
According to the formula, we can know that mages are good at resisting arrows with stronger damage, while warlocks have an advantage in the number of attacks they receive.
Because of Liang Lidong's mediocre attributes, he is relatively in the middle in both aspects, neither high nor low. However, according to the formula, at his current level, if he uses magic to defend against arrows, he can withstand up to 84 long-range attacks. And there are at least a hundred archers below. As long as a wave of arrow rain attacks, he can withstand 84 long-range attacks. Break his magic defense, and then shoot him into a sieve.
So instead of using defensive magic, he threw a magic scroll forward to resist the ring of fire...
This is a defensive fire magic that bounces away surrounding enemies. Although it does not do enough damage, it is considered a good defensive magic among fire magics. When he threw the scroll, the enemy's arrows seemed to be raining down on the sky. General pressed over, and at the same time, the scroll was activated not far in front of him, and then a fire ring suddenly expanded and swept over Liang Lidong's body, pushing him forward at an extremely fast speed.
Just after he was pushed away by the ring of fire, the coordinates in the air where he was just now were covered by at least two hundred arrows.
Because of the levitation technique, Liang Lidong was still descending slowly at this time, but due to the resistance to the ring of fire, he flew sideways very quickly. In order to allow himself to land earlier, he immediately released the levitation technique, and his whole figure looked like It hit the ground like a shooting star.
He rolled several times before he could get rid of most of the momentum on his body, but even so, he still felt that his whole body was shaken to the point of falling apart.
When he reached the ground, he quickly stood up and saw the group of archers turning around very quickly, then drawing arrows and drawing their bows.
Liang Lidong flicked his fingers. With him as the center, white mist quickly appeared in the air. As soon as the mist came out and there was no vision, these archers would have almost no fighting ability.
At this time, a figure jumped down from the second floor of the castle and jumped to Liang Lidong's position very quickly.
Liang Lidong hurriedly retreated, and the man hit the spot where he was just now with a thud. The huge impact even made a big hole. A piece of gravel flew away against Liang Lidong's face, and then a red mark appeared on his face.
This man was very familiar to Liang Lidong. He was the city lord Uther. He was holding a giant sword in his hand and wearing iron armor. He stood up from the pit. His posture seemed like that of a demon emerging from hell.
City Lord Uther is of a higher level than Liang Lidong, so the fog-riding magic does not have a great impact on him. He can barely see about twenty meters in front of him. But the distance between him and Liang Lili at this time was less than seven meters.
Uther put the giant sword on his shoulder. He looked at Liang Lidong and said with great disappointment: "Your Excellency Beta, we are very disappointed. We didn't expect that our relationship is so good, but you still decided to go to the Temple of Life. If so, If you want to find someone, we can help you find someone, why do you have to believe Mark’s promise?”
Liang Lidong took two steps back, clicked his tongue and said, "It seems that the one who made the first move to gather the soldiers is you, the city lord, right?"
"I'm just in case. After all, Your Excellency, your fighting ability is very strong." Uther took two steps forward and said: "Beta Pavilion worker, you have a lot of kindness to our city lord's mansion. Even if we doubt you, we will not What will we do to you? We just want to put you under house arrest to ensure that we ourselves will not be harmed.
Although he was considered a member of the nobility, Liang Lidong generally did not believe that the nobility was actually a member of the nobility, especially when they were already on hostile sides. Liang Lidong said: "I hate house arrest, so I'd better forget it."
"Then I'm sorry. For the sake of the peace of Winterwind City, I have to do something I don't want to do."
As soon as Uther finished speaking, he rushed towards Liang Lidong with his weapon. The black giant sword in his hand was raised high and drew an arc. Finally, the entire giant sword hit the ground, and the shattering vibration was heard. Like waves on the water.
Liang Lidong quickly retreated to avoid Uther's attack, and then the Pseudo-Emperor Falling Sword appeared in his hand.
Uther withdrew the giant sword, turned his body, used the force to swing the giant sword, and then slashed towards Liang Lidong's waist in an arc as fast as thunder. Liang Lidong had no choice but to take a few steps back to avoid the opponent's attack. The giant sword passed in front of him, wrapped in strong wind pressure, making his hair sway wildly like flying grass. He also has a long sword in his hand. It stands to reason that he can take Uther's attack, but in fact Liang Lidong really doesn't want to do such a thing. The opponent's attack power is quite good, and a head-on confrontation will only lead to bad luck.
One hit missed, and the huge inertia of the heavy weapon left Uther in a vulnerable state, unable to parry. Logically speaking, this was an excellent opportunity to attack, but Liang Lidong continued to retreat quickly.
Because Uther was always followed by a woman that no one could see, the city lord's wife...she escaped into her husband's shadow and followed closely, so Uther dared to use such a powerful move with confidence. Others could not see the city lord's wife, but Liang Lidong's Yunlong blue eyes could see through all illusions. He knew very well that if he attacked now, he would be seeking death.
Liang Lidong continued to retreat as fast as the wind. As long as you keep enough distance, no one can find him in this thick fog.
But things were not as simple as imagined. When Liang Lidong retreated, Uther did not pursue him. He rearranged his stance and watched Liang Lidong quickly disappear in the thick fog, and then he grinned lightly.
Huge wind pressure was released from the top of the castle, blowing the thick fog like waves of the sea. Soon the deep fog was blown open a huge hole. In the center of the hole, Liang Lidong looked up at the top of the castle. , there were two spellcasters standing there, Babara and the girl in black robe. These two girls are both fire magicians, and their ability to use wind magic is not very strong, but if they both drive the same magic at the same time, the situation is different, and they use a wide range of wind magic. The lethality only pursues continuity and constant wind power, which is obviously well prepared.
The only weakness of the Mist Riding skill...is that it is affected by powerful wind skills. Liang Lidong looked at Uther, who was slowly walking towards him, and said, "It seems that you have made a lot of considerations and preparations for this day."
