Chapter 1408: Feint to the East

(Completed)

Prophet Hill had no objection to Kui Lu's arrangement.

He just introduced the two sides briefly.

Immediately afterwards, Leila started to contact Khelbourne and quickly created the magic gate.

It took only a moment.

Still in this secret hall.

When an arched magic light gate was created in the void.

One after another, figures quickly walked out of the light gate.

These people obviously had several small teams.

There was a team of all spellcasters, which should naturally be the elite members of the Black Rod Tower.

There were standard heavy armors, and there was an order that was obviously different from the adventurer team. Most of them should be elites directly from the army.

Long ago, Valsareth had already shown his ambition for Waterdeep.

Therefore, the masked lords of Waterdeep did not sit idly by when the battle of Lismayath broke out today.

There is also an elite team made up of various professions, including spellcasters, clergy, elven magic archers, dwarven heavy shield warriors, and even orcs, halflings, and even drow elves.

They are members of the "Moon Star Organization" that Khelbourne created after leaving the Harper!

There are two groups of support for Waterdeep.

One group, led by the legendary adventurer Dunan, has already arrived in Lismayatha and has joined up with Lelin Evans and others.

That group is mainly composed of adventure groups and mercenary groups, and the composition is quite complicated.

At this time, the group led by Khelbourne is much purer.

Either they are the elite teams of the army, or they are all his students and apprentices, or subordinates.

It is precisely because of this purity that Kui Lu can be sure that even if he has to disperse some of his strength to assist the Hill Prophet against the devil's army, it will not be leaked, and there is still strength hidden here.

Isaac was also observing this support team.

Excluding Kavatina and Khelbourne.

Although the average level of the Dark Song Knights and the high-level priests is higher than this support team.

But the absolute advantage in numbers, this support team composed of three teams, the overall strength is definitely better than the Dark Song Knights.

Since the demise of the Kingdom of Namayelita, the belief of Eilistraee has only been a minority among the drow elves.

Although the Dark Song Knights are powerful, tougher and wilder, the shortcomings in terms of numbers and scale are by no means something that can be made up in a short period of time.

"Not only the overall strength, but also the magic power."

Led by Khelbourne, the wizards and warlocks of the Black Rod Tower, there are more than 20 people.

Whether it is to carry out the legendary ceremony, or to go a step further and combine it with the high magic ceremony, this is enough to unfold!

Kuilu's side is much inferior.

As the double elect of Eilistraee and the Goddess of Magic, even if Kuilu should also have the ability of high magic, if it is only the Church of Eilistraee itself, the team she brings, which can't even build a complete nine-ring magic array!

Of course, this kind of comparison is actually meaningless.

Kuilu and Leila have a close relationship. As long as it is necessary, these wizards and warlocks of the Black Rod Tower will not mind cooperating with those drow priests to assist her in ritual casting.

After all...

Isaac's eyes paused for a moment on one of the Black Rod Tower team.

Half-drow warlock, Kyriani-Agriwal.

Back then, when Kuilu changed into Leila and visited the Kingdom of Red, she was accompanied by this person.

This is also an elite member of the Black Rod Tower.

Judging from some legendary adventures, this half-drow warlock should be specially favored by the Silver Moon Goddess and is born with abilities far superior to ordinary warlocks!

Perhaps because of the close relationship between the Silver Moon Goddess and Eilistraee, she also has a very close relationship with the Church of Eilistraee. She is directly involved in the development of the Church of Eilistraee in Dugas.

Because of her close relationship with Kuilu, Isaac has also paid a lot of attention to her, so it is certain that with her cooperation, Kuilu will have no problem in performing rituals or performing real high magic!

"From the perspective that Alustriel has mastered high magic, Leila probably also has it. After all, with the direct help of Khelbourne, she is even closer to this than Alustriel."

"With Leila, Kuilu, and Khelbourne, it is possible to perform the "Majority Ceremony."

"And it's not an ordinary "Majority Ceremony"!"

Isaac's eyes flickered slightly as he speculated in his mind.

The usual "Majority Ceremony" is a high magic ceremony jointly performed by three high mages.

But in his speculation, the more powerful "Majority Ritual", or even the real "Majority Ritual", should be that three high mages, each of whom controls a ritual array, and then further achieve the final parallel connection through high magic rituals.

This is completely different from his "Triple Parallel Ritual" in essence, but it is exactly the same.

This time, if Kuilu and the others really have the preparations for this "Majority Ritual"...

"The three ritual formations, coupled with the leveraging of the High Mage himself, were finally combined together."

"This is Mephistopheles. If you are caught off guard, you are always likely to be suppressed!"

Of course, Mephistopheles must be caught off guard, unable to cast spells to respond to the ritual, and unable to interrupt...

"It's not easy!"

"It's even dangerous!"

After all, Mephistopheles not only has powerful spell-like abilities, but most importantly, he also has the same spell-casting ability as a level 30 mage!

Its legendary magic!

Its "advanced teleportation technique"!

Its "laws" and "blasphemous words"!

There is also the unpredictable spell-casting ability above the spell slot!

If you don't have the right time, just carry out high-magic rituals casually, there is a real possibility of being killed by him, and you can still kill a large area in one go!

Isaac was deducing this in his mind.

Under Kui Lu's arrangement, the support team was quickly divided into two parts.

Some of them immediately followed Prophet Hill and joined in the defense of the dungeon.

The other part, especially the spellcasters in the Black Staff Tower, were all left behind.

From this, it can be seen that his previous deduction has a considerable probability.

Kelben and the others must be prepared to use magic rituals to deal with Mephistopheles!

Thoughts flashed like this. Seeing that Prophet Hill and others had left, Isaac no longer hid anything and looked at Kelben: "Is the Archmage prepared to deal with that one?"

When the opponent is Mephistopheles, this is him, and he does not dare to be careless at all.

If Kelben had a plan and was sure of it, then he would have to cooperate.

But if Kelben is not sure...he will have another way of playing.

"Disaster!"

Kelben was shaking his head.

Although the Black Staff Archmage has never been in the habit of explaining things to others, it depends on the person.

In fact, he also wanted to hear if King Red had any plans?

This person's magic ability is undoubtedly higher than his.

Even his creativity in spells will never be second to him.

So, with others, it’s an explanation, but with this person, it’s a discussion.

Shaking his head slightly, Kelben continued: "First of all, I still haven't been able to find out the essence of the contract between Valsaris and Him.

Since it is difficult to determine whether Valsharis will be completely free and free from any restrictions if he is dealt with, we cannot even attack the drow queen directly. "

This is the most critical issue.

At Kelben's level, it is natural to see that Mephistopheles has been paddling in the past few months.

The Hell Lord is the manifestation of order and must not be able to violate the contract, but his interpretation of the terms of the contract may not be consistent with Valsaris.

Faintly, Kelben could tell that this hell king might have plans to use their hands to legally get rid of the constraints of the contract.

"Not only Valsaris, but Leylin Evanston as well."

"Mephistopheles may want to use Leylin Evans's hand to get rid of the shackles of the contract, but he will not leave his own weakness in Leylin Evans because of this. "

"So, from the current point of view, unless we can find a direction that can be targeted directly from the perspective of the contract through Valsaris, otherwise, we will have to take action forcefully!"

Kelben's words.

Isaac also nodded slightly.

They basically agree with him that at the moment, the only thing that can be prepared in advance is how to target Mephistopheles's weaknesses.

But...this weakness is too little!

Kelburn's voice continued: "But if you want to force a move, you have to talk about Mephistopheles' ability."

"Hell Lord, he is naturally immune to attribute damage and energy absorption, and is not immune to bleeding, blindness, deafness, blood sucking, charm, coercion, heavy blows, petrification, and death effects. He is also naturally immune to fire damage, cold damage, and Toxin damage.

In addition, He also has the effects of freedom of movement, psychic barrier, order shield, and true seeing.

At the same time, his spell resistance is probably over level 50...

But there are too few aspects to target Him. "

A series of immunities, plus permanent "freedom of movement" and "mental barrier".

This is almost immune to all restrictive means except "exile" and "imprisonment".

The only things that can harm Him are lightning, strong acid, sound waves, force fields, dissociation, and sacred damage.

But whether these restriction methods or these damage methods, let alone whether it can break through his spell resistance of over 50, even if it can barely be broken through, there is still a big problem behind this...

Mephistopheles himself has the same spell-casting ability as a level 30 mage!

With such a combination, even Kelben can only truly threaten him by casting spells through rituals.

But ritual casting requires at least a full round of casting time.

With Mephistopheles mastering legendary spells and being able to dispel them at any time, it's hard to say how much of a threat this ritual casting can pose!

In this regard, Kelben also had a number in mind.

In fact, even if Isaac didn't take the initiative to ask him, he would still communicate with Isaac.

He would not think that Leylin Evans and Cavatina alone would be able to block Mephistopheles and create opportunities for them to perform high magic rituals!

"In addition, the threat of his magical abilities cannot be ignored."

"He can use the 'Spell-like ability - Mythic Spellcasting' to perform 'laws' and 'blasphemy'. People whose life energy level is lower than level 25 will not be able to use 'anti-death enchantment' unless they have a 'death-proof barrier' attached to them." Not even close to Him.

But even if an 'anti-death barrier' is attached, it can be forcibly dispelled.

In addition, once a day, he can also perform the 'Mythical Time Stopping' and 'Mythical Prayer Technique'..."

Although the magic-like ability myth basically poses no threat to Isaac, it is not without exception.

Such as... that "mythical wishing technique"!

Mephistopheles is in charge of the "knowledge field" and the "rune field", and his connection with the essence of magic is by no means trivial. The "wishing spell" he performs is completely possible to exceed the ordinary strength. On this basis, If you add the "power of myth"...

Even Isaac didn't dare to say that he would be immune to this effect!

Of course, he was already prepared for this!

Even if he has maintained the status of "legendary triggering spell", he still has a total of 9 legendary spells per day.

Mephistopheles's "Mythic Prayer Technique" only consumes one shot of him at most.

He may not even have to perform legendary dispelling to deal with it.

Combining "Ultra-Limited Spellcasting" with "Super-Magic Fixed Hair", even if he is really restricted by the "Mythic Prayer Technique", it is not impossible to force his way out.

In the flash of his mind, Kelben's foreshadowing was almost complete.

The words changed again and again, and finally came to targeted preparations: "So, I am going to deal with him from two aspects.

Forcibly exile, or temporarily imprison him first, and then throw him back to Nabaatar Hell!

But there are some problems..."

At that moment, he discussed with Isaac how to cooperate so that it would be difficult for Mephistopheles to resist and have a chance to escape.

In particular, it is necessary to ensure that, apart from Mephistopheles, there will be no other factors that may have an impact, so as not to cause unpredictable interference.

But referring to Mephistopheles's series of abilities, and these are only the abilities in the data they have mastered, they may not be all the true abilities of this hell king...

Even for them, it was still difficult to say for a while how sure they could be to absolutely restrain Mephistopheles!

This second person in Baator Hell, even if he is not in the hell level and not in his final form, is still immeasurably powerful.

With the information that can be seen so far, it is hard for Protarus to match Him!

But they are still discussing it.

"Valsaris has arrived!"

Kui Lu's voice suddenly sounded.
