The knight in the abyss

Chapter 872 Mage and Warrior

In any battle, the party with the mage will definitely have a huge advantage, and the current battle situation undoubtedly proves this.Although people are often associated with destructive spells, the true power of mages is their ability to alter reality in supernatural ways.

After placing the spider webs, Karaline took out scrolls one after another like a peddler walking down the street, summoning a puddle of slippery grease here, and softening the land like cheese over there. The head throws another large cloud of colorful bubbles, and the target hit by the bubble seems to be suddenly blind, scurrying back and forth without thinking, creating more chaos among the incoming enemies.

Let's be honest, the average mage can't throw as many 'different' spells in one battle as the savant - a legitimate mage will spend one or two every morning (or any time he's rested) It takes hours to memorize the spells to be cast that day, and even the top spellcasters, who have thousands of mastered spells in their library, are unlikely to remember more than thirty spells at the same time.

But Kara Lin is different. As a scroll caster, he can prepare a large number of magic scrolls in advance, and then choose which one to take out according to specific needs, just like writing a cheat sheet during an exam.However, the disadvantage of this approach is also obvious: making scrolls is not only a time-consuming and laborious job, but also very expensive.

Specifically, making a second-ring spell scroll (such as the invisibility scroll, if a mage is short of money, you can do this scroll) requires at least 250 gold coins for materials, plus a full three working days.Of course, as a scholar of the Dark Order, Karaline has become so proficient that it only takes one or two hours to complete it, but the cost of materials cannot be saved, and as we all know, in the abyss, apart from money itself, nothing Both are ridiculously expensive.

Fortunately, for Kara Lin, this is not a problem at all - Lancelow directly counts the cost of making the scrolls as team expenses, and there is no need for Kara Lin to pay for it himself, although he has nothing to spend place.

In addition, Karalin is not the only spellcaster in the team, needless to say Aramir, and Tanya, who is a curse swordsman, is also a spellcaster (although her fighting style always makes people forget this).Different from scholars and priests, as a branch profession of warlocks, the spell slots of curse swordsmen are very rare, just as precious as the priest's "guidance of divine power" and the warrior's "movement like tide", so they will never be used easily. But tricks that don't cost spell slots are unlimited.

The half-elf waved her hands and twisted her waist like a snake. The whole person looked as graceful as dancing, if the spell she was screaming in a non-human language was ignored.She suddenly pushed forward with both hands at the same time, emitting three black and purple magical energy, spinning and flying towards different enemies.Enemies who had already been affected by Karalin's various terrain spells couldn't dodge at all. They were all hit by Tanya's spell, and they would make a loud noise like thunder when they hit, making the target feel like they were being attacked. The city hammer flew backwards as if hit.

"Oh, I haven't seen it before." Aramiel admired the performance of this distant relative, "New specialty?"

The half-elf who was busy casting spells again didn't have time to answer him, and the elf priest didn't take it seriously. After all, it probably involved some kind of secret about the other party's profession, and he didn't have to know it, and there were big troubles that deserved more attention.

Three death knights riding skeleton warhorses rushed out of the woodland, and everyone felt a strong threat - just looking at the appearance, they were wearing huge metal helmets with only a slit exposed, and wearing complex runes. With a heavy bronze helmet and a giant battle ax with an astonishing momentum, it looks like a big trouble at first glance.

The spellcasters immediately concentrated all their firepower on them, but the result was not very satisfactory. That kind of armor obviously had the effect of suppressing the effect of spells.Moreover, the spider web arranged by Kara Lin didn't have any effect - that spell works best on creatures of ordinary size. Once the size and strength of the target exceed a certain limit, the effect of slowing down will drop sharply. Anyway, for Lan It's useless for people at the level of Slo and Bluto.

Seeing that the enemy was about to rush in front of him, Brutal was already holding his warhammer, ready to fight.At a critical moment, an unexpected figure stood up: the old dwarf Barend exhaled and threw a throwing ax suddenly. The speed of the throwing ax in the air was not very fast, but it was extremely precise. It hit a gap in an enemy's helmet, and the entire ax blade was completely gone, leaving only the half of the ax handle at the end, like a puppet's nose.

The death knight didn't even make a muffled grunt, and fell silently to the ground, leaving one less enemy for the young dwarf to deal with.

"Oh! Hit the bull's-eye!" The old dwarf shouted excitedly, "See that, young man? Learn!"

"Tch, it's just good luck!" Although Brutal was retorting, he sounded quite happy, "Look at Dad, I'll let you see what real strength is! Drink!!!!"

Accompanied by a roar that almost made the ground tremble, Brutal's body swelled rapidly, and in an instant he turned into a giant dwarf over ten feet tall, a head taller than the death knight sitting on the horse.

Immediately afterwards, Brutal swung the war hammer that grew bigger with him, and hit the death knight in front.

There was a tooth-piercing sound of metal clashing, together with the sparks created when the blades intersected.Brutal's attack was indeed powerful, but the death knight with the power of the charge was not so vulnerable.The dwarf was beaten back several times, and the skeleton horse rose up with manpower, knocking off the rider on it, but the latter obviously did not lose its combat effectiveness.

Brutal wanted to pursue immediately, but another enemy had already flashed out from behind the target, stabbing the dwarf's throat with a sword, which scared the dwarf back quickly to prevent his beard from being hurt by the sharp blade—of course He would not just let the enemy go, but swept the warhammer towards the enemy's horseshoes, and the effect was very beautiful: all four legs of the skeleton warhorse were shattered, and the rider on it fell to the ground, unable to move. Then use the momentum of the charge to attack other partners.

Although Brutal didn't seem to gain much of the upper hand with these two blows, all the enemies lost their mounts and could only fight him on foot.Although it is still one against two, based on the absolute height advantage, Bruto does not feel that he is at a disadvantage at all, so he did not adopt a passive defensive counterattack tactic, but raised the hammer high, and once again moved towards the One of the enemies rushed up.
