Chapter 416: Legendary Mage Is Also a Mage
…
With the help of the amplification spell.
Matthew's voice was able to spread throughout the battlefield.
Many demons silently raised their heads and looked at him.
Matthew cast a calm and composed look.
He called out the invitation to duel three times in succession.
However, the demon army's commander Osedro did not respond.
On the contrary, the legendary demons who fought in the front were indignant:
"I'll fight you!"
"Come down, cowardly wizard!"
"You don't deserve to call the name of the Sage of the Abyss!"
Among them, the most clamorous ones were the Twin Cavalry Demons and the Slaughter Demon Lord.
However, just as Osedro did not respond to Matthew.
Matthew could not respond to these minions.
In front of the two armies.
The two sides seemed to be talking to each other in the air.
They were not on the same channel at all.
Seeing this.
Matthew silently cast a mirror spell, keeping his image in the original mid-air, and then said:
"I will accept your challenge at any time and any place, and the conditions will not change."
"I thought there were no cowards in the abyss."
"You disappoint me, Osidero."
But even so.
Matthew's provocation only resulted in the legendary demons jumping up and down and cursing.
Osidero has always been lurking in the ocean of the abyss army like a turtle.
Matthew's challenge did not receive any response.
This made him feel full of regrets-
Osidero can be said to be the most cautious opponent he has ever encountered.
Careful like a demon!
In order to avoid risks, he was even unwilling to respond to Matthew's words, let alone show up and accept the challenge!
It's just that doing so is more secure.
But it actually hurts the morale of the demon army.
Don't look at how happy those legendary demons are.
Matthew could clearly sense the changes in the morale of ordinary demons——
If this indicator is too vague.
Then it would be clear at a glance when it comes to the changes in the strength of the ritual field of the Forged Holy Soldiers!
"The strength of the Forged Holy Soldiers has been weakened by at least one third..."
Matthew nodded with satisfaction in his heart.
This is the result of the demon commander avoiding fighting.
Although the main goal was not achieved, the results in other aspects were achieved, which was not in vain.
Although the effect of the ritual field was affected.
But the demon army still did not stop its pace of advancement.
Matthew can now fully determine Osedero's strategic intentions——
In the short term.
The opponent will never have a top-level confrontation with himself or other elite units.
Osedero now only wants to use the advantage in military strength to flatten the Rolling Stone City in one fell swoop!
Only by achieving results on the front battlefield as much as possible.
The lost morale will be compensated.
The effect of the ritual field of the Forged Holy Soldiers can also flow back.
A few minutes later.
The three armies of the first echelon surrounded the area where the cemetery was located in a fan-shaped manner from the northwest and east directions.
The demon troops at the front line were lined up in a row.
They stretched the battle line very long, as if they wanted to gradually go deep into the hinterland between the cemetery mountain and the Rolling Stone City after a carpet search.
From the perspective of troop deployment.
Osedro didn't think of playing any tricks, he just wanted to crush all enemies with the advantage of numbers.
Then push forward.
At the same time.
Matthew also noticed that the structure of the demon group gathered at the front of the three demon armies was changing slightly.
Along with this move.
The speed of the three armies' advance also slowed down a lot.
Matthew stared at the front battlefield with a serious expression.
There.
A large number of small dogs, spiders and bats were driven to the front-
They are a kind of Brezu demon, with a relatively small body, but relatively flexible.
Behind them.
The first one is the Brezu Demon that is the fallen form of a medium-sized humanoid creature or a medium-sized four-hoofed creature.
And then.
There are some giant elite Brezu Demons and squadrons or teams of cavalry demons!
"Osedro's control over the demon army has reached this level?"
Matthew was surprised.
In his impression, the Brezu Demon is the lowest demon, and is used as cannon fodder by the demons in all wars.
Anyway, when fighting, let the Brezu Demon turn into a beast tide and rush forward.
But the army in front of him is not so chaotic.
Although the Brezu Demon is still the one rushing in the front.
But compared with the conventional charging method.
Whether it is the arrangement of the front and rear formations, or the connection and dispatch between them, these Brezu demons look not much different from well-trained human soldiers -
They are even more obedient!
If you look down from a high place.
All the three legions of the first echelon have clear levels.
Under Osedro's micro-management.
The possibility of the demon army losing its composure is almost zero!
This high degree of order in the demon army is simply a miracle!
Just as they were arranging their troops.
A Bing was still trying his best to harass the various squares of the demons.
But his efforts could only create a slight disturbance at most.
But as some abyss mages who controlled the immobilization spell and the strong beam scroll came from the central army behind.
A Bing's actions were also restricted to a certain extent.
Of course.
These mages definitely couldn't do anything to A Bing.
Matthew restricted A Bing to act carefully just to be more cautious.
Seven minutes after adjusting the battle formation.
The first batch of Brezu demons rushed to the trench belt at the forefront with excited roars.
They were very petite.
Once they rushed in, many of them fell into the pit.
But soon.
Those flexible and amazingly bouncing demons jumped out of the trench!
They ran all the way to the south.
Not long after.
They encountered the bloated and tall figures standing up from the trench!
Those were the seven-headed demon abominations and the undead army led by Argus!
They blocked the way that Brezu demons had to charge.
On the battlefield.
Although it was not a narrow road, they would definitely meet!
"Roar-Woo!"
A demon dog that rushed to the front was slapped to the ground by the demon abomination.
The demon dog's skull was opened on the spot, and the sour green juice and thin brain matter flew to the ground.
But soon.
They were covered by the bodies of other Brezu demons!
"Roar!"
For a moment.
The surging Brezu demons drowned the seven demon abominations.
The huge and bloated bodies of the abominations seemed very intimidating.
But on the front battlefield.
They were the most direct targets!
Although each demon abomination had strong combat power, there were too many Brezu demons!
In less than a minute.
Two demon abominations fell one after another, and their bodies were torn into pieces by the violent demons. There was no intact organ or even muscle at all!
After the abominations fell.
The ones facing the pressure were Argus and the undead cannon fodder army he led.
The number of this batch of undead was not small.
But it was still not enough in front of the vast sea of Brezu demons.
Fortunately, the existence of the abominations weakened the impact of the Brezu demon army.
When the two sides fought hand to hand.
Although many undeads shattered at the first touch, many of them fought the enemy under the command of Argus.
The troops on both sides collided with each other, and the demons and the undead fought each other.
The situation temporarily fell into chaos.
Matthew stared at the front battlefield intently, and soon he made a judgment in his heart:
"These cannon fodders can't hold out for too long..."
There is no way.
Compared with the strong and violent demons, the physique of the undead is indeed too weak.
If there is no bonus from the ritual field.
The combat effectiveness of the undead army is a joke!
The current situation of the battle between demons and undead is completely opposite to the war that Matthew experienced in the sampan plane.
This shows the value of the Death Sky Curtain.
"Without the undead disaster, without toughness identification and instant death judgment, without the support of negative energy smoke, the undead army does not have any advantage against the armies of other races..."
Matthew pursed his lips lightly.
Despite this.
He still won't easily start a natural disaster of the undead in the main material world.
First of all, it will not end well.
Secondly, it may also cause the disgust of the plane will, including the resistance of the natural will.
Unless Rolling Stone Town is really at a critical moment...
"Arctic Shooter, 28 degrees northeast, free throw!"
"Fire Cremator First Squadron, northwest, aim at the cavalry demon unit, intercept!"
On the swaying cemetery mountain.
White Ghost Ali began to issue a specific battle plan based on Matthew's previous arrangement.
After the Brezu Demon rushed into the trench belt.
Matthew lowered the flight altitude of the cemetery, making it more deterrent and convenient for the undead in the cemetery to support the ground troops.
The most effective support is of course the long-range attack provided by the Arctic Shooter and the Fire Cremator.
According to Ali's previous test.
The firebenders can throw 7 to 8 fireballs in 10 minutes.
After that, they need to rest for half an hour before throwing fireballs again, but the quality of the second round of fireballs will be weakened.
After that, they still need half an hour of rest to recover the loss of soul fire and magic power.
After that, they will be able to throw the same number of fireballs as the previous two rounds.
But the power of the fireballs in the third round is even weaker.
After throwing three rounds, they must take a long rest for 6 hours to recover to their peak state.
According to this characteristic,
Matthew divided more than 200 firebenders into several groups and asked them to rest and attack alternately.
In the protracted war,
He asked Ali to ensure that at least one team of firebenders was on duty at all times.
And in the interception battle like now,
Matthew's order to him was-
"Bomb all!"
"Be sure to stop those cavalry demons outside the trench belt!"
Matthew knew it very well.
The Cavalry Demons are the elite of the demon army, and the Brezu Demons are just a group of cannon fodder.
Osedro's meticulous micro-management is to create enough stage for the Cavalry Demons to ensure that they can achieve good results with low losses.
Since he saw through this.
Of course, Matthew can't do what the other party wants-
He deliberately let all the Brezu Demons at the front go, and then put all the pressure of the cemetery's fall and long-range strikes on the Cavalry Demon team following behind!
In addition to the fireballs of the funeral fire.
The extreme cold archers, who were also divided into several groups, also started their ultra-long-range projectiles on the hillside!
The shooting skills of the undead Naga are not bad, and the key is that they shoot ice arrows and undercurrent arrows almost without damage!
Matthew only needs to provide them with abundant water sources-
This is not a problem at all for the cemetery with nearly 10,000 coolie zombies!
Crash!
The water that was previously transported from Rolling Stone City was moved bucket by bucket by bucket by the zombies to the side of the extreme cold archers.
But the undead Naga stretched out his hand and squeezed the bucket, and a water elemental bow and arrow quickly took shape.
Short-range ice arrows are more effective.
As for long-distance indiscriminate throwing, the dark current arrows that the Nagas are better at are more effective!
"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!"
For a while.
The sound of strings continued in the cemetery, and the dark current arrows thrown out came to the heads of the cavalry demons like water meteors.
Although the dark current arrows do not have strong penetrating power like the iron-headed bows and arrows.
But they have super inertia and deceleration effects that ordinary arrows do not have!
Crash!
It was like a basin of ice water poured on the armor of the cavalry demons.
Not only did their bodies become wet, but their natural armor was also worn to varying degrees.
What's more serious is.
Being hit by a dark current arrow will bear a huge impact force, and from some angles it is like being hit by a small catapult.
Two unlucky cavalry demons fainted on the spot because they were hit on the head by the dark current arrows. Then they were trampled several times by other demons who could not dodge in time. It seemed that their lives were unknown.
In addition to the front battlefield where the cemetery was located.
The defense lines on the east and west wings were also facing the threat brought by the frontal advance of the demon army.
Outside the oak forest.
The centaurs fired thousands of arrows at the same time, and the forest guards also turned into catapults to launch long-range attacks on the approaching demons;
Near the moss green hills.
The Southern Mage Corps controlled the Zhurong Eye formation and lowered one wall of fire after another——
Yu Qi cooperated with Matthew and strictly implemented the plan to isolate the cavalry demon army from the Brezu demon vanguard.
For a while.
The battlefields of all parties were in chaos.
Although the effects were different under the use of various means, they more or less hindered the progress of the cavalry demons entering the front half of the trench belt that was gradually filled by the Brezu demons.
"Not bad."
Above the cemetery.
Matthew praised the Naga archers who were shooting arrows.
The effect of the dark current arrows in long-range projectiles was beyond his imagination.
The endurance of the arctic archers was much stronger than that of the firebenders.
Matthew regretted not converting more corpses in the Naga Cemetery!
"The firebenders need a special ritual site and may need Orolin's fireballs, but the arctic archers don't. It seems that we must take time to go to the Arun Sea!"
Matthew's eyes were firm, and his eyes looking at the arctic archers became much gentler.
If nothing unexpected happens.
The arctic archers are the advanced soldiers he will vigorously cultivate and train next!
However, the arctic archers are not the holders of the long-range kill record in the cemetery.
The real soul-seeking undead is now holding the Emerald Trade Wind, constantly looking for a suitable shooting angle on the body of the cemetery——
Miss Zombie's target is different from that of ordinary arctic shooters.
She often targets high-level characters among the cavalry demons!
Thanks to her strong arm strength and the super range provided by the Emerald Trade Wind.
Renesmee has a bow, which is equivalent to a weapon for ultra-long-range fixed-point sniping!
Whoosh!
Another arrow was shot.
She used the most common white feather arrow, and the arrowhead accurately hit the right eye of a cavalry demon and penetrated from the back of his head.
The cavalry demon wailed and ran in the formation for a while.
Then he could only die helplessly!
Renesmee was neither arrogant nor impatient. She just confirmed the death of the cavalry demon, and then aimed at the next target.
Seeing this scene.
Matthew was full of relief, but also felt a strange throbbing.
He could feel that Renesmee today seemed to be a little different from the past.
She had a very lively temperament.
This was incompatible with the breath of the undead.
Of course, it was also far from the living.
"It's a bit like the aura I gave her when I gave her XP or strengthened her before..."
Matthew thought thoughtfully.
In fact.
There is more than one undead who gave Matthew this feeling!
He counted.
"Renesmee, Ali, Argus, the slime leader... and an ordinary banshee."
"A total of five cemetery units, four elite templates, and one ordinary template."
"They all have a special throbbing..."
At that moment.
Matthew's perception was moved.
And then.
He had an epiphany in his heart:
"This feeling is too familiar, it's the taste of the domain..."
"The duel between Rolling Stone City and the Abyss Army pushed us into a domain called war, which is invisible and intangible, but everywhere."
"I am actually comprehending the domain of war, and I will soon reach the entry node, and these five undead are the same!"
"They resonate with the domain of war!"
Such a thought flashed through Matthew's mind.
On the data bar.
…
"Hint: You realize that you and your undead are resonating with the war field.
You have obtained a new task "Learn in War!"
Learn in War: Every bit of growth you gain in this war can provide double XP (limited to the war field).
These XP can be converted into relevant abilities in the war field.
You can also infuse these XP into the bodies of the undead that resonate with it, so that they can gain more talents related to the war field.
If you successfully win this battle.
You will gain a special ability from the war field "Training Contract".
Training Contract: You can improve the cluster level of your army through daily training.
There is no restriction on the race of the soldiers in the army.
The only difference is that the cluster level of humanoid soldiers is improved faster.
The cluster level of undead, constructs and other soldiers is improved more slowly, but also more steadily."
…
"Sure enough, you are about to comprehend a new field."
A hint of joy flashed in Matthew's eyes.
He was not happy because he was about to gain a new domain, but because he had noticed this sign before the system prompted and analyzed the general situation.
In comparison.
The system task was the one that was more belated.
"This is the benefit of solidifying the balance node..."
Matthew had such an epiphany in his mind.
Then.
He turned his attention back to the battlefield.
At the same time, Matthew also opened the enlightenment aura that could be used once a month.
Then he listed the five undead as the key enlightenment targets.
I hope they can grow more in this war!
A few minutes later.
Sif rushed to the cemetery.
"Matthew?"
"You want my help?"
Before the girl finished speaking, Matthew grabbed her fair wrist and pulled her directly into the stone house next to her!
Bang!
The small door of the stone house was closed.
In the small room with no windows on all sides.
Matthew hugged Sif's waist, and their chests were tightly pressed together, and they could feel each other's heartbeats!
The girl's fragrance permeated the nose and mouth, making people want to invade.
"Wu... um?"
Sif's voice was slightly trembling, and she seemed not to understand what was happening.
In the darkness.
She could only see a pair of eyes looking at him lovingly.
So she lowered her head and hummed:
"I'm ready!"
Matthew's cheerful voice came from the darkness:
"Are you ready now?"
"That's great!"
Sif's cheeks flushed, and a hint of shyness flashed across her face that Matthew couldn't see, but the next second, she was pulled out of the dark room by Matthew!
"Is it exciting enough?"
"I need you to help release a hellfire. Just in a moment, release it when you hear my signal, and aim at the cavalry demon unit, okay?"
Matthew looked at Sif eagerly, who was confused.
At this time, he seemed to realize that he had misunderstood, so he asked apologetically:
"Uh... If you need more excitement, we can go back..."
"No need!"
Sif interrupted him angrily:
"I feel full of power now!"
"You'd better tell me where to vent my anger!"
Matthew looked at her gradually clenched fists and ran away without looking back!
Time is running out.
He found Yu Qi:
"Help me locate Osedro!"
Yu Qi said with some difficulty:
"Although astrologers do have advantages in divination and tracking positions."
"But the opponent is a legendary wizard. If he can hide his flaws, it will be difficult for me to capture his position."
Matthew said calmly:
"I will create opportunities for you to track."
"Did you see the changes in the marching, formation, and advance and retreat of those legions?"
"Such neat and orderly changes cannot be coordinated by those great demon warlords who are dissatisfied with each other."
" The only explanation is that each step of the Demon Legion is Olyndro manipulated behind him, and if you want to do this, the two conditions are indispensable -the global vision and a more central position. The information of the naked eye recognition, an old fox like Ovarro, cannot be completely believed that it may be distorted or tampered with information spells! "Yu Qi frowned for a few seconds. Then, he bite his teeth:" Yes! " It is also the weakest time, but the legend is the legend after all. He and any enemy you encountered before ... "In this regard, Matthew just smiled:" Try it to know. " He returned to the cabin, took out a precious yellowed fragment and said:
"This is the remnant of the mythical giant beast Xuanwu in the East Continent. I only have the last bit left."
"I hope to find our enemy."
After getting Yu Qi's promise, Matthew immediately returned to the cemetery and said to Xifu, who was standing there like an iceberg:
"You can burn it!"
However, Xifu turned around with a stern face and said coldly:
"Sorry."
"I couldn't help it, it's already burning!"
Matthew looked into the distance in astonishment-
But he saw the familiar Flowing Fire Curtain appear again between the northern sky and earth. Under the curtain, black flames were entangled around the bodies of the demons like a group of snakes, devouring their lives!
The intensity of Xifu's hellfire far exceeded the attack of the funeral fire or the extreme cold archer.
The group of cavalry demons that were hit head-on were almost wiped out.
The teams next to and behind also had to temporarily change their routes because of the Flowing Fire Curtain and the remaining flames.
Matthew knew.
Osidero, who likes micromanagement so much, can't miss such an opportunity to deploy troops.
Whether it is a spell signal or a verbal command, now is the time when Osidero is most likely to reveal a flaw!
Matthew was about to remind Yu Qi that he could start divination.
However, yellow smoke suddenly rose from the magic ship!
Then.
Yu Qi's excited voice came from inside:
"Found it!"
"I found it--"
"Matthew, follow the direction of the starlight, you have three minutes, hurry!"
Matthew looked up.
Sure enough, there was a very weak visual, but very bright starlight from the sky!
Where the starlight focused.
It was a region full of ordinary demons in the second half of the Third Legion!
Matthew looked again.
"It's an illusion!"
"There are not so many demons there!"
"I see you, Osidero!"
The next moment.
The huge cemetery suddenly flew forward, and the negative energy power was unprecedentedly adjusted to the highest level.
Boom boom boom!
The high-speed flight over the cemetery caused a violent disturbance in the airflow, which immediately shocked everyone and made them look up.
This scene also fell into Osedero's eyes.
He looked at the starlight on his body and realized that he was exposed:
"Stop him!"
"Let's go!"
Several big demons flew up and rushed towards the cemetery.
But the next second.
The figures that had just flown up were knocked down by a huge black shadow!
Boom!
The cemetery did not land.
It was just a huge monster swooping down from the top of the cemetery. There was no gliding or feathering. Philolius, who had just recovered from weakness, smashed his body straight into the formation of the demon army!
Boom!
Countless demons were killed on the spot, and the soldiers nearby were also thrown to the ground.
Osedro's pupils shrank.
Other people's attention was only attracted by the return of the steel bone dragon.
But he was more concerned about the man standing on the top of the bone dragon!
"This guy is really a legend!"
"How dare he challenge a legendary wizard like me if he is not a legend!?"
Such a thought flashed through Osedro's mind.
At this moment.
The distance between the two sides was only a few hundred meters.
He ordered all his guards to intercept Matthew and the bone dragon.
On the other side.
He directly tore the scroll hanging on his chest.
"Swoosh!"
Osidero's figure disappeared on the spot.
Then he appeared five hundred meters later, at the junction of the first and second echelons.
Looking at the bone dragon being besieged by all the demons.
Osidero breathed a sigh of relief.
But the next second.
The jade wristband on his right hand suddenly became bright and hot-
That was a warning that a malicious unit was approaching!
Osidero's nerves became tense again.
But his mind was still calm:
"It must be the skeleton assassin who was lurking nearby!"
"No need to be nervous..."
Osidero gently pressed the gem on his belt.
The next moment.
Three consecutive frost-attribute resistance air rings sprayed from his body to the surroundings!
Wherever the aura ring goes.
All invisible units will lose the effect of stealth or hiding.
As expected.
The skeleton assassin who came and went without a trace was no exception -
He appeared 50 meters to the right of Osedro, with ice fragments hanging on his body!
A cold smile appeared on Osedro's face.
Unlike ordinary legendary mages.
What he is least afraid of is legendary assassins!
"In the abyss, what kind of legendary assassins have I not seen?"
He sneered and opened a random door.
The other end of the door opened 200 meters away, where the second echelon of elite demons were coming after hearing the news.
"At this distance, do you want to follow?"
He suddenly shouted to the seemingly slow-moving soldier.
The next second.
The soldier disappeared on the spot.
Osidero stepped on the edge of the portal, but the assassin who jumped out of his shadow seemed to predict his action -
A Bing stepped on the portal before him!
But at this moment.
The foot that Osidero stepped on the portal suddenly turned into nothingness.
And the foot disappeared together.
There was also the portal two hundred meters away!
He looked at the soldier who was about to be teleported with a sneer on his face and said:
"Undead creatures really don't have any brains."
"Welcome to the abyss..."
But before he finished speaking, his voice condensed in his throat.
Because at that moment.
Osidero was horrified to find that a human had emerged from the body of the skeleton assassin!
Whoosh!
The skeleton assassin was sent to the abyss by his portal trap.
But the human stood in front of him with a smile on his face and his face close to his!
That was...
"Matthew -!??"
Osidero wanted to use an emergency spell.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
A lilac ball of light opened on Matthew's body——
"Spell-invalidating barrier"!
In a breath.
Osedero's eyeballs bulged violently.
He saw that Matthew was holding a shovel in his hand!
...
It was too late...
