Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

This is the third time Ryan has come to Murray, a small town that connects the north and south of the mainland. The scene in front of him has changed once again. The black fog in the sky covers an area of ​​several tens of kilometers, covering everything.This time the Alliance sent troops to the east of Seck City, the first battle was naturally to destroy the city of bones built by the Undead Legion in Moree. This fortress made entirely of bones is now in the endless darkness, even if it is Lane Such a legendary mage couldn't forcefully penetrate the thick black mist to see what's inside.

"We have tried to drive cattle and sheep into the shady area, but all died without exception. According to our military chaplain’s inspection, the soul should have been directly stripped out of the body, and the bodies of the dead cattle and sheep were also infected. The terrible plague. Fortunately, we have been well prepared. This is why we are not arrogant." Orlando said helplessly: "The most troublesome thing now is that we can't collect the information inside, and we can't bypass here to attack Seke. City, this will expose our flanks completely."

Ryan nodded. He was standing side by side with Orlando and the others on a high hillside watching the enemy situation. For the problem Orlando said, Ryan had no particularly good way to solve the problem, so he did not speak. Just keep observing the surrounding environment, hoping to find some clues.

The Grand Magister Clifford from Mochizuki City suddenly spoke: "What if we directly use magic for long-range attacks? Can we destroy the opponent's defense system?"

"We have also conducted research on this, but since this area of ​​several tens of kilometers is covered by black mist, it is difficult for us to determine the true location of the city of bones. If only the use of level 8 magic is used, it will be very big. The probability of not being able to hit the target, wasting mana." Orlando replied.

"Can I only use the Forbidden Curse?" Clifford said this, and at the same time cast his gaze to Ryan beside him.

"The curse may not necessarily be effective." Ryan shook his head and said: "When I came here for the second time, the dark canopy of the Legion of Undead hadn't really been completed at that time, and I concealed my own with the help of Freya's moonlight brooch. Traces, so you can observe everything up close. But looking back now, I’m afraid that the cave I saw at that time was mixed with many illusions."

"Illusory?" Clifford repeated Ryan's words strangely.

"Yes." Ryan circled his hand in front of him, including the entire area covered by the dark sky, and then he said: "Feel the resentment in there. Such a heavy evil power is just Used to cover our eyes and ears, this is too wasteful? Let us think about it, if you and I were the lich lord, what would we do? I would rather use such a huge grievance to create more advanced undead Creatures, such as the banshee souls, these high-level goods are extremely threatening to our ordinary fighters on the battlefield. Think about it. When the enemy and us are fighting each other, a banshee burst out of death in the crowd. Howl, what a terrifying lethality that is, and we have almost no good way to deal with it, unless we disregard our colleagues and preemptively clear the field with mass destruction magic."

Orlando and the others nodded slowly, they had to admit that Ryan's words were very reasonable, but now it was all speculation no matter how much they said, there were too many possibilities.Farasi thought for a while, and said, "So, Ryan, can you forcibly tear away the black mist? At least it can let us see what's inside."

Ryan smiled at his wife, and he explained: "This question, in fact, I have answered just now. Even if I have a way to temporarily get rid of the black fog, but you are sure to appear before us, it must be Is it true? If I am the lich lord, as long as I set up enough magic circles, it will be enough to mislead our actions."

"It's not okay, that's not okay, what should we do." Faras said sullenly, "This time, our time is very tight. If we spend too much time here, then... …"

"Don't worry, Fanny, there will be a way." Ryan comforted Faras.

"Why don't you let me have a try?" Reid, who had been silent standing beside him, said suddenly.

"Well, your light magic is the nemesis of these dark forces, maybe it can really..." Farasi clapped her hands and said.

"No, wait a minute..." Ryan interrupted Faras's words. He turned his gaze to Orlando, and asked in a pointed manner: "Orlando General, can you elaborate on the previous matter, that is The one that drove the cattle and sheep in."

"No problem, but I think it's better to let Cross lead it. He was in charge of stationing here before, and he directed the entire test work." After Orlando finished speaking, he made a gesture towards the distance. The man in his 40s ran over immediately.

"This is the commander of Cross." Orlando first introduced the identity of the shrewd and capable man in front of you, and then said to Kloss: "Commander of Cross, please give us a detailed introduction to the situation at the time. a bit!"

"Yes, General Orlando!" Clos led the way by saluting to General Orlando, and then saluting to the others present. After doing this, he carried his hands on his back and began to describe the situation loudly.The words of the Kross commander are very capable, there is no unnecessary nonsense, and he does not add his own subjective judgments. He is completely describing a fact, which makes Ryan and others present very satisfied.

After the leader of Kross finished speaking, Ryan nodded, complimented, and then began to ask for some details. When leader Kross answered, Ryan’s brows began to frown, and Farath was the first to notice Ryan’s Change, she quickly asked: "Why, Ryan, there is a problem?"

"Yes." Ryan nodded and replied: "According to our human documentation, including the information of the elves, I clearly remember that this'dark sky curtain' can affect the will of living creatures entering this area to weaken it. Their combat effectiveness has never had a function similar to the "finger of death" nor the function of spreading the plague."

"Maybe it's a new effect?" Faras said.

"No, this possibility is very low." Ryan shook his head and said, "Based on the results of our experiments, what is the best conclusion that can be drawn?"

"Don't get into the shadow of the dark sky, it's best to use long-range offensive means to attack." Faras said disapprovingly.

"However, because of the darkness of the sky, we can't determine the location of the city of bones, can we? This will make it difficult for siege equipment and level 8 magic to work, so the only way is..." Lane said.

"Forbidden curse attack!" Orlando, Clifford, Faras, Reid and others shouted in unison.

"If I didn’t guess wrong, there should be a huge magic circle under the black fog. When I release the forbidden spell to attack this area, that huge magic circle will be activated. Space, I infer that the super giant magic circle should be a forbidden spell!” Ryan thought for a while, and continued: “When the attack begins, it is likely that the forbidden magic of this magic circle will also be activated, and my forbidden spell They collide with each other to cancel out, and then the out-of-control energy razes this hundreds of kilometers to the ground, and our army is probably wiped out. Of course, there may be another ending, such as the huge impact after the collision of two Forbidden Curses. Vent out everywhere, and finally tore open the space barriers, resulting in a short empty passage...

"Yes, the power of Forbidden Spell itself is extremely terrifying. If it loses control, it will spread to the extremely wide area around. This distance will definitely exceed the safe distance of our stationed troops. At that time, our 100,000 elites will have a chance to evacuate. Not at all! As for the space channel, it is also a very troublesome thing." Orlando nodded and said: "Fortunately, Ryan, you have noticed the enemy's conspiracy, otherwise this time the Eastern Expedition will completely become a tragedy."

"But, what do we do then? Are you just here on vacation?" Farasi said angrily, "Or go directly to the Imperial Capital?"

"Don't worry, my dear." Ryan smiled and pressed Farasi's shoulders to comfort her, and then said to everyone with a confident smile: "Since we already know their conspiracy, then we have won a game. The next thing is to think of a safe way to break the game. This is not too difficult, is it?"

"Drawing a forbidden spell into a magic circle? This is really an incredible technique, it is unheard of! I have to admit that we humans have too little theoretical knowledge about the use of forbidden spells. Can it be cracked?" Clifford asked.

"In fact, in the form of a magic circle, we can complete any magic, but the more powerful the spell, the more energy it consumes, and the larger the area of ​​the final magic circle will be." Ryan said. At the same time, there was a look of worship in his eyes. This is something he has never done before: "The one I admire most is my teacher Victor. He actually thought of using the magic circle superposition technique to make it complicated. Compressed into a smaller space, this is simply an epoch-making initiative! Think about it, an ordinary magic scroll is engraved with a powerful forbidden spell, what a fascinating thing ."

"Well, I'm a little off topic." Ryan smiled embarrassedly, and went back to the previous topic: "Take the magic circle in front of us that we can't see for the time being. Since it appears in the form of a magic circle, There must be various methods such as energy gathering and transmission, but its area is too wide, which gives us enough room for imagination."
