Fairy's Chess Game

Chapter 41 The Surrounded Mage

After finishing the special breakfast provided by the coffee shop, Woz left before the city became lively and returned to his suburban villa.As a powerful wizard, Woz is also the group of people with the highest income in the entire industry, so in addition to the house he bought in Magnolia Town, he specially found a place near Harujian that is close to the sea. The villa is used for vacation and rest.For Woz, the expensive rent on a long-term lease is just a matter of a few tasks.

Woz is almost paranoid in some respects, that is, obsessive-compulsive disorder generally pursues a feeling of "quietness"-as long as he is upset, he will find a quiet enough place to stay alone for a while, Woz's request It is absolute quietness, not only the harshness on noise, but also the quietness of the mind, the environment that requires solitude, wishing it were in the wilderness, with no people inhabited for hundreds of miles... After all, maybe it is just as As Mirajane pointed out, Woz is actually not good at communicating with people.

This small villa in a remote location just met Woz's needs. The environment is beautiful, quiet enough, and the transportation is relatively convenient. There is a small stone road leading to the main road of the city, which can easily replenish daily necessities.

After Woz walked into the small villa, he let go of his mind, didn't think about anything, and prepared to relax completely.I felt vaguely in my heart that I seemed to have forgotten something, but I was too lazy to think about it for a while, and I just wanted to sleep for a day and a night before talking.

It wasn't until the next evening that Woz woke up from a full sleep.He habitually opened the magic book beside the bed, and the text magic traps secretly arranged around the room were actively activated.

At this moment, Woz discovered the anomaly.

My own small villa was surrounded.

Dozens of strange-looking creatures quietly surrounded the small villa, motionless, like statues; but Woz clearly remembered that there were never any statues around his house, and there were no small animals of these unknown species.Because they did not show the slightest hostility, the appearance of these strange creatures did not trigger Woz's defensive magic circle; it was not discovered until Woz took the initiative to take over the control of the magic circle.

The visitor is not good!Woz judged, he looked at these small things through the magic network, but each of them had a hideous face and sharp claws. Woz would never believe that they were harmless little animals.

These creatures are even beyond Woz's cognition, and Woz can fully suspect that they are not native species of this world at all.On the contrary, it is more like a magical creation like Daliola, or simply a species of another world-in the world of magic, such a situation is indeed reasonable.

Woz grabbed his book and walked out the door calmly.The creatures that had been standing still like statues started to move as if they had received a signal.Wind, fire, ice, thunder... all conceivable elemental powers burst out of their bodies instantly, and the magic power in this space was immediately thrown into chaos.

Are they all elemental creatures?Woz pondered, is it the magician's creation, or a summoned species from another world?
But the only thing that is certain is that the real enemy has not yet appeared.

Woz seemed to be holding the spine of the book upside down inadvertently, and countless dark golden streams flowed down from the gaps between the pages, like a small waterfall.After this "water flow" fell to the ground, it did not splash, but spread out smoothly, stretching out countless tentacles like life, spreading out in all directions, like opening a huge net, covering the whole world. The villa area is enveloped in it.

If you look carefully, these black water streams are actually made of small characters. If you don't pay attention, you will regard them as swarms of ants.This is Woz's main exploration magic: "Word Ant".

After the word ants were completely dispersed, Woz's eyesight began to slacken, and his pupils dilated—at this time, Woz no longer relied entirely on his eyes to observe, and all the situations detected by the word ants would be displayed on a specific page of the book It shows that with Woz's ability at this time, it is no longer necessary to read the content on the pages of the book all the time, as long as the mind is immersed in the book, the required content can be obtained.This technique greatly improved the search efficiency of the word ants, and effectively enhanced the concealment of magic.

But somewhat unexpectedly, at the same time as the word ants dispersed, the surrounding magic power further agitated.As if realizing that Woz had started magic, the mage hiding in the dark also moved.

The magic power was boiling, and on the land in front of Woz, three magic circles appeared randomly among the more than a dozen elemental creatures that existed before, and new elemental creatures slowly rose from them.More than that, through the feedback from the word ants, Woz found that the same thing was happening in the entire encirclement.

It's summoning magic!Woz saw at a glance the form of the magic circle, which had the same basic structure as the famous Protoss magic. It seemed that these elemental creatures were indeed summoned from another world.Judging from this number and the strength of the summoned beasts that appeared, the strength of this hidden summoning mage is also quite extraordinary.There are more than 100 small summoned beasts of all kinds.And the other side seems to have no intention of stopping yet, new magic circles are still emerging, which means using the sea of ​​beasts tactics to pile up the enemy.

With this amount, Woz showed a toothache expression, which is really rare.

As far as Woz knows, a star spirit wizard can only summon one star spirit at a time, and a star spirit wizard who can open two doors at the same time is a rare master.Of course, star spirit magic is the most advanced level even in the entire magic world. Star spirits are not simply summoned beasts, and there is a large degree of contract magic mixed in. All summoned star spirits completely obey the orders of their masters. , and at the same time a powerful assistant with his own soul and wisdom, it is normal that it is more difficult.Ordinary summoning magic is not so harsh as to limit the number.

However, in order to perfectly control the summoned beasts, the summoning wizards usually do not summon more than three summoned beasts at one time, otherwise the difficulty of control will be greatly increased. Once the mastery is not good, the summoned beasts will not obey It's still light, maybe it will turn around and bite its owner back.

Of course, you can also choose to sign a contract with specific summoned beasts to obtain their full assistance, but in this way, it is actually no different from protoss magic, and if it is not a powerful enough summoned beast, signing a contract is actually a great deal. It is also a very loss-making business.

Contract magic will increase the consumption of mana, and there are various conditions stipulated in the contract, which cannot be violated.Woz observed these summoned beasts again, and found that they were all small elemental creatures. Although they were barely considered elite, it was not worth the loss if they signed a contract, not to mention the exaggerated number. Annoying man.

Since it's not contract magic, then...Woz felt a toothache again when he saw the herd of summoned beasts that were still standing still despite the increasing number.Simply relying on its own magic power to control so many summoned beasts?Is he demonstrating against himself?
Woz's body is motionless, but the word ants have completely controlled the entire yard, and all the magic arranged in advance have been activated and connected into a whole.For defense, especially in his own territory defense, Woz has plenty of confidence.His text magic is the best magic for position defense.Woz is also actively preparing while the other party is constantly calling.In any case, Woz can afford it. The longer the time, the more perfect his position will be. On the contrary, the opponent's summoned beasts are limited by the magic and spiritual power of the mage, so it is difficult to increase infinitely, and he can't keep suppressing them like this .

Sure enough, when the number increased to 140, the summoned beasts began to agitate, and under the guidance of the opponent's mage, they showed naked killing intent towards Woz.

Combat is imminent.

Woz cheered up too.Is it finally about to start?Speaking of which, he still doesn't know who the other party is and why he is bothering him.But Woz didn't ask, he is not a talkative person, let alone the situation has reached this point, what else can he do?It is no longer easy to stop.

The army of summoned beasts was like a real army. Under the control of the dark mage, they moved forward in an orderly manner, and formally stepped into Woz's defensive circle.

So, before they could attack, Woz's counterattack began.

At the moment when the army of summoned beasts touched the invisible boundary, countless sharp piercing winds sounded, and the originally invisible defense line was suddenly visualized infinitely, and the air was wantonly distorted—the invisible blade seemed to be torn apart. the whole space.Just at the start, the army of summoned beasts with the momentum of a large army was strongly blocked, and the invisible blades were thrown head-on, giving them a head-on blow.Each of the summoned beasts at the front was cut by more than ten air blades, and there were wailing and roaring sounds, accompanied by wanton spurts of blood.

After the blood of the unique elemental creature is sprayed out, it immediately turns into the performance of various elements in the air. For a while, flames, torrents, lightning, sand... various elemental powers are dispersed in the air, which is truly gorgeous.The heavily injured summoned beasts were constantly forced to self-destruct, and all kinds of elemental forces became more chaotic and violent.

These little things are really not enough to see.Woz monitors the entire battlefield through word ants.Summoned beasts of this level are not worthy of him deploying a "shelter" for defense. On the contrary, for enemies who actively disturb his vacation, Woz has no idea of ​​giving him a good face, so Woz chooses to attack first:
"Word Enchantment Magic - Inviolable Land".

In Woz's magic book, the number A is the second, and it launches an indiscriminate attack on all non-own targets that enter the range of the enchantment.If the opponent didn't make any new moves, then it would be impossible to make progress by relying on these little summoned beasts to attack, and they could only become meaningless cannon fodder.

Even if the opponent summons a stronger summoned beast, it is meaningless. "Inviolable Land" is a magic that is strong when it is strong.From the perspective of compatibility, it can be said that it is a magic that specifically restrains this kind of summoning magic. Only using long-range magic attacks outside the range of the enchantment is the fastest and most effective way.

The opponent also reacted quickly and stopped the unnecessary charge.The army of summoned beasts started to launch long-range attacks against the edge of the barrier.They are all elemental creatures, not simple beasts, but equivalent to low-level wizards!

Fireballs, water balls, lightning balls, flame arrows, ice cones, stone thorns... The most basic elemental modeling magic of a blockbuster strikes, with a huge momentum, and the density of firepower thrown is no less than that of an ordinary war.

Woz, who has the upper hand in theory, has even more headaches at the moment. He is distressed about his small villa!Woz himself was standing at the courtyard front door at the moment, but the attacks couldn't have all greeted him, most of them went in a straight line towards the house in the middle.

Woz hesitated for a moment on whether to protect the house.Because up to this time, he still hadn't fully entered the fighting state, he just wanted to solve the problem with the least cost.Like the large "shelter" Woz in the Daliola battle, I don't want to cast it casually, after all, there is a price.Which is higher, the price of a "shelter" or the price of this small villa?Woz made a quick calculation in his mind.

After the results, Woz took no further steps.However, this wave of enemy attacks did not work.The magic with limited strength was easily resisted by Woz's preset defensive magic.Just stirred up a nice sound and light effect.
