Shortcomings, this is always relative!
Compared to any race in the Prime Material Realm, if we only look at innate abilities, dragons can even be said to have no shortcomings.
Flying ability, strength, physique, intelligence, charm, spell ability, spell resistance, elemental resistance, damage reduction, dragon breath, dragon power... This is a race with peak strength even if placed in the outer plane!
However, if the object of comparison is raised to a certain height, this will obviously be different.
"On the material plane, those who have the ability to pose a threat to me are the legendary mages first of all!"
"Although I have advanced destiny and have a certain resistance to legendary spells, if we really want to fight, with the infinite possibilities of legendary spells, it is obviously impossible to say with absolute certainty!"
"Resistance to legendary spells..."
Thinking that in the future, Isaac would definitely encounter the person from the synthesis place, Isaac didn't have any specific direction for a while.
Mage, precisely because of his comprehensiveness, is difficult to target.
Not to mention that the "Messenger of All Things" is in charge of the third research tower of the Synthesis Institute. Not only has he advanced to the legendary profession "Life Mentor", but he also has terrifying forces such as the Elemental Blade and the Rakshasa Army under his command.
At that time, I still have no choice but to go on!
Of course, although there is no specific direction, Isaac will not be afraid of what is over there, even more...
Thinking of the third research tower, a cold light flashed and disappeared in his eyes.
It's not just Eugene and the others who are huddled in the Tower of Shadows, fully preparing for the next two battles.
He is also planning!
Not to mention his own research and strengthening, he worked hard. While researching, he would go out from time to time to win over those five-color dragons with benefits and power. What he did, if not all, at least half, was precisely For that day!
The only time in the Thousand Dragons' Covenant, to serve him unconditionally, this is exactly what he was prepared for!
Plus his legion, plus the three of them, Eugene, and their students!
It should be possible to activate Barrett's group of shadow assassins, and naturally Blackwoods and the like are also indispensable.
"As for the snake scorpion demon, we can ignore it for the time being."
"However, Alex Cole and his Dragon Witch Cult...may not necessarily need me to operate. The Dragon Witch Cult itself also has many relationships with the Necromancer, so there is no rush for the time being!"
…
"Besides the legendary mage, there should be people like the ancient dragon, or even the advanced ancient dragon."
"Although it is still far away from the ability to control elements at will and the ability of arcane fire, I can first complete the transformation of some spells into different energy versions, and then prepare in advance when I need to use them."
"Furthermore, with Slaad White Toad's abilities, advanced teleportation and finger of death can be used at will. If they don't prepare in advance and don't have priest magic preparations such as 'anti-death barrier', they can also pose a considerable threat. of!"
"If there is more... I have already completed the dismantling of the fear aura. If I dissect the paralyzing touch as well, and use this ability in conjunction with my majestic aura, the effect will be even more powerful in close combat!"
Just like the majestic aura, if you cannot complete the saving throw, you will be shocked again every round when facing his attack, and this shock is different from the dragon's power, and even the dragon is not directly immune.
Even if you resist the paralyzing touch of the lich and dracolich this round, you will have to resist again if you are attacked again. And one who cannot resist... the dracolich can only be paralyzed for a period of time. The witch It's a demon, but it will suffer permanent paralysis. Only spells with the effect of removing paralysis can remove it!
Although the paralyzing touch is activated by negative energy, the strength of the ancient dragon's physique is basically extremely difficult to control, not to mention the dragon's legendary resistance, which may even prevent it from even taking effect. However, at some point, we really have to fight hand-to-hand. In the constant fighting, there are countless contact attacks, but it is difficult to say that they have not been launched successfully!
Moreover, this ability is equally powerful at other times, especially when facing sieges and the like!
"The dismantling of the Paralyzing Touch should be at the top of the list!"
"With this ability, if you combine it with the vampire's touch... Calinsey's side, the wolf snake demon can continue to fight indefinitely, precisely because it can cast this spell at will!"
Isaac probably has a position on the defense line that he will mainly strengthen next.
After the ancient dragon, there should be the legendary lich and the same level of dracolich!
"Normally speaking, although most lichs are not immune to fire and force, they can make up for these with spells. To deal with them, in addition to positive energy, there is only dissociation, which can directly deal with inanimate objects. A spell that also works on objects.”
"Positive energy spells. I already have three priest levels, and I can prepare magical spells such as 'Cure Moderate Injuries'. However, the strength of this second-level divine spell alone is far behind when it comes to dealing with lichs." . First try to analyze its essence, and then see if it can be applied to certain spells!"
"The dissociation spell also needs to be changed. Although the effective caster level of my mage profession has reached level 14, the lich that I can deal with seriously is at least the legendary level. How could a legendary level lich not have corresponding counterattacks? control ability?"
"If the dissociation technique is changed to another method, then if he uses the dissociation technique to counterattack, it will be directly ineffective!"
"On the contrary, the Dracolich, who is strong enough and basically not afraid of the dissociation technique, is even more difficult to deal with."
Isaac didn't forget that there were two old guys who were specially cared for by the Dragon Queen, waiting for him. Of course, they should also be able to make Alexkle move at the same time!
However, these two old guys are very well hidden. Even he only knows that one of them has been rumored to have appeared in the North, and the other seems to have some secret relationship with Alex Le's Dragon Witch Cult. involve.
"To defeat the dracolich, paralyzing touch and vampire touch are useless. The immunity of psychic abilities and the majestic aura may also be difficult to penetrate. Before mastering the arcane fire, you still need to complete the analysis of positive energy spells in order to be able to target them. possible."
His thoughts turned away from the two undead, and Isaac's eyes became more solemn.
In addition to these perverts, if there is anything else that threatens him, then...it should obviously be those chosen ones, those destiny, and those guys who are in charge of the sacred weapons of the gods!
Of course, the same goes for the other way around!
He is also the destiny, and he is also in charge of the Green Dragon Crown!
Looking at him, those guys were threatening him.
On the other hand...his threat to those guys is obviously even greater!
"On the one hand, invest more heavily in these studies, and use the mage profession to provide 'experience' to the Wheel of Heaven faster!"
"On the other hand, there is no room for relaxation when it comes to directly absorbing the energy of the dragon's origin and promoting the transition of age groups faster!"
An age group often means an increase in the level of two spellcasters!
…
Neither the Dragon Witch Cult matter nor the news about the suspected "talisman" disturbed Isaac's concentration.
The matter was arranged to the black dragon envoy very smoothly. As expected, according to Miranda's report, although the man looked very stinky, he did not reject this after the red dragon envoy's sudden retreat. Task.
Plus other arrangements.
Isaac continued to devote himself to research with a clear conscience.
It only took more than a month to have the experience of dismantling and analyzing the "Fear Aura".
"Level 5 spell, paralyzing touch!"
"When making a contact attack with cold and dark negative energy, it will cause additional negative energy damage and also form a paralysis effect. If you are not strong enough to resist and save, you will be paralyzed forever!"
"but……"
Just as Fang completed the construction of this spell, Isaac was experiencing the effect while feeling something in his heart.
The paralyzing touch of the lich and the paralyzing touch of the dracolich seem to have different effects. One is permanent paralysis and the other is short-term paralysis.
But at this moment, with this spell in hand, he no longer needs to dismantle the Dracolich Transformation Ceremony. There are already several of them. This is the same essence!
The same fifth-level spell.
Naturally, it has a permanent paralysis effect on human-sized lichs.
But for a dragon-sized dracolich, if you force a touch attack on every part, it can cause permanent paralysis. This is obviously not something that can be achieved with the strength of a fifth-level spell!
"On the contrary, the difficulty of resisting the paralyzing touch is not related to the level of the caster, but to the overall life energy level!"
"Just like, although the paralyzing gaze of the dracolich is resisted by willpower rather than strong resistance, the difficulty of resistance is also related to the life energy level of the dracolich!"
This is a very effective improvement for him!
With his current life energy level, the difficulty of resisting the paralyzing touch is already the same as that of the Dracolich transformed by the ancient blue dragon!
…
The fear aura and paralyzing touch were successfully dismantled, but then, Isaac was unable to continue the analysis of the four immunities of "cold, lightning, deformation, and mind-affecting".
"Aura of fear and touch of paralysis, these are abilities!"
"The four types of immunity are its own characteristics!"
"Although magic can also achieve corresponding effects one by one, such as 'Ice Element Energy Immunity', 'Electric Element Energy Immunity', 'Psychic Barrier', etc., the essence is different after all!"
With this understanding, Isaac finally put aside his continued research on the two rituals of the Lich and the Dragon Lich.
Instead, he devoted most of his energy to the transformation of magic and the analysis of positive energy magic.
With his current ability, he can even infer the advanced arcane ability of spell structure directly from the essence of magic, and every result further improves the Wheel of Heaven.
He also has a comprehensive understanding of the ability of "element control", and has also completed research on "breathing energy replacement".
It is rare for him to be able to find a breakthrough direction by dedicating himself to this aspect.
Energy replacement for various elemental spells.
The cold energy version, the electric energy version, and the strong acid version of the fireball technique.
An expansion of Pyroblast.
Even the seventh-level spell "Delayed Explosion Fireball", which he had just mastered not long ago, is also being modified.
And in terms of ability.
With the "Fang Vortex" contributed by Master Wu Fei, he expanded it to a third-level "Missile Storm"!
With the newly mastered seventh-level spell "Power Prison", he expanded it to the fifth-level "Power Shackles"!
The transformation of the dissociation technique is under study!
Even for the anti-magic field, he tried to find the direction of change. If it could only affect the target without causing interference to himself...
Of course, apart from all these, he will not forget about priest magic.
"Level 1 divine skill, cures minor injuries and causes minor injuries!"
"Second-level magic, cures injuries and causes injuries!"
"Level 3 magic, cure serious injuries and cause serious injuries!"
"Level 4 magic, cure fatal injuries and cause fatal injuries!"
"Sixth level magic, healing and serious injury!"
Browsing through the true necromancers, as well as some magical information on priests from the true necromancers.
There was a look of thinking flowing out of Isaac's eyes from time to time.
Although he can only master the second-level magic for the time being, a comprehensive comparison shows that these two magics with completely opposite effects are actually the same essence.
However, just like the principle of "energy replacement", it is just a matter of replacing "positive energy" and "negative energy".
"So, this research can actually be completed in advance!"
"With the Universal Source of All Laws, I could have prepared them into the lists of mages and warlocks, and then used them to cast magical spells in the form of arcane spells!"
"As for the nature of arcana, as long as we can complete research on them, we can naturally prepare the corresponding spell slots!"
"Such a magical spell of great use must be added to the list of warlocks in the future!"
The analysis of divine magic is a little more complicated.
After all, for priests, most of the magical arts are directly given by the gods, so you can choose by yourself.
Only a few priests who have pursuits will study divine arts on their own.
Furthermore, there is obviously less information related to this.
However, this did not hinder Isaac's progress.
"They are both negative energy, and they are all contact types. They cause damage and paralysis, but they actually have something in common."
"This is the entry point!"
"After completing the analysis of the damage caused, the healing damage will also come out!"
"Perhaps... I can perfect this directly into the Wheel of Heaven!"
"With this, as long as the unification of principles is completed, when the 'element control' from the unified archmage is truly formed, it will not only be the control of 'fire, cold, electricity, acid, and sound waves', but also the control of 'fire, cold, electricity, acid, and sound waves'. There are two kinds of energy, 'positive and negative'!"
"Even before that, converting the fireball technique into the holy light ball and the death ball, and converting the poisonous breath into the holy breath and the death breath, this is logical and feasible based on the principle!"
think!
inspiration!
direction!
breakthrough!
All kinds of things are constantly shining in the soul in a wise way, and are constantly being perfected in the wheel of heaven.
Isaac already had a feeling.
"Wait until all of this is completed in practice and unified into theory!"
"When 'Elemental Control' truly completes its advancement and is truly formed!"
"I should be able to obtain the 'Specialization in the Evocation Field', 'Specialization in the Healing Field', and 'Specialization in the Death Field'. These three are actually specializations in six fields!"
"However, elemental control requires giving up the eighth-level spell slot, but you still have to wait a little longer!"
"On the contrary, the breakthrough in this area, and the accumulation it brings to the mage profession, must be much greater than any previous research, even the dismantling of lich rituals!"
"Furthermore, with the formation of specializations in these fields, there are already extraordinary specializations in the three major fields of 'dragon field', 'evil field' and 'lawful field'. From the perspective of 'field', To explain the structure of the world, it also has a substantial promotion!"
The Mind Lab records simultaneously.
In addition, the library of the Royal Academy of Magic is constantly expanding, and it is logical to add the collection of research materials on divine arts.
…
And the other side.
The Principality of Calinsay.
An ancient and solemn castle.
The castle stands on the top of a mountain, surrounded by a line of defenses composed of fortresses and walls.
However, probably because the all-out war with Tessel is still going on, there don't seem to be many guards on the castle or in the fortress.
Of course, the number of people is not too large, but these warriors all have standard heavy armor, and the heavy armor has family crests engraved on it. It can be seen at a glance that they are all elites!
It is in this castle, going down, but not going down to the fortress, but going down to the bottom of the castle, into the mountain peak.
A secret underground palace, even larger than the castle itself.
There are only a few immortal torches in the deepest part of the underground palace, which looks eerie and dark.
In front of a secret palace, four huge guards in mithril armor were holding giant swords with both hands, and the giant swords were stuck in the ground. They stood motionless, as if they were stationed without any breath of life.
Inward.
Still a dim, everlasting torch.
But the light cast by the torch is reflected again and again...
The light of torches, the light of gems, the light of magic, all kinds of brilliance are intertwined and reflected.
This secret hall is no doubt gloomy, but it is also gorgeous and noble.
Within the main hall.
Two figures.
One is standing, wearing a dark robe, but wearing a magic mask with flowing silver light. She looks like a woman, but her voice is very dull, and she can't distinguish between male and female: "It looks very much like one of us. Most of them are hired people, and a small number of them also rely on the 'talisman' as their trust. The style is correct, and some caravans who serve me are even involved.
However, it was not my fault. The Dragon Worship Cult is quite peaceful here, focusing on business and doing business with the people below me. I have no need to take action against them. "
The other person was sitting on the ancient throne.
He is also all in black, with dark robes, dark cloak, and dark mask.
Under the mask, there is a pair of eyes like red flames.
"It's not you, but your people are involved... He already knows you!"
This person in the dark mask obviously trusts the silver mask. If she says it's not her, then it definitely won't be her.
However, if it weren't for her...this would be interesting!
The red flame eyes flashed slightly, and he continued: "Although I have never had a good impression of the black dragon, if someone wants to use this to provoke something... his target should be you! Don't show up casually for the time being. Now, let me come and see for myself who is planning this!"
The silver mask nodded slightly. She was always used to obeying him, but then said: "The caravans involved may be a breakthrough. Being able to understand all these caravans means that he should also be involved. These areas. If it’s really one of us, I’m a little inclined to be the one over the desert, or the one who joined in recent years!”
The masters of talismans are also very careful to watch out for each other.
Except for the most senior and core one or two who may know the identities of others, the others can only be suspicious during secret investigations at best.
However, if someone is really taking this opportunity to plot against her... even if her identity has not been completely exposed, I am afraid that it will not be far away!
Respond and fight back, this is a must!
She had already cut off all ties!
"The Black Dragon Envoys of the Dragon Worship Cult have arrived, and they have come from all aspects to directly cut off the principal's supply channels with the outside world, in order to ask for an explanation from Little Turs.
In the war with Tessel, little Turs could only endure it at this time.
Since there is a target of suspicion, let them lead them to search for themselves. Zheng also takes the opportunity to see who those two are! "
The man in the dark mask said, already standing up, and looking at the silver mask again: "But before that, you have to arrange for someone to clean up the head and tail."
"It's already underway. It's almost completed."
…
Cursed desert.
Not only does it share the border with Tethyr, it is also connected to the mountains of Karinsey.
Although the desert is cursed, undead souls may rise from under the sand anywhere, and at any time.
However, as long as there are enough benefits, no matter how dangerous the place is, the footprints of businessmen are indispensable.
Many smuggling passages are entered from here.
Among them, some are controlled by businessmen from the Dragon Worship Sect!
Of course, that was before.
Following a wave of bloodbath, this place was temporarily abandoned until revenge came back and before reconstruction.
Even other smuggling channels were cleaned one after another.
The Black Dragon Envoy, accompanied by some people, was walking in this mountainous area.
As a black dragon, he still prefers dark and tidal areas. This kind of environment is connected to the desert and is blown by wind and sand from time to time. He has never liked it.
Therefore, it must be because of the environment, and definitely not because of force. After all, the matters of the Dragon Worship Cult are his business. He is not here because he is afraid of certain people.
But no matter what, under the golden mask, the Black Dragon Envoy's face was always wrinkled.
In the blink of an eye, I have been traveling around Calinsay for three or four months. Although with the cooperation of Grand Duke Calinset, I have managed to find some indirect clues, and I have been certain that they are indeed related to the talisman, but that is all. That’s it!
The information about the Lord of Talisman, let alone him who was new to this place, even the Calinsey official could not find any direction at all.
He has considered more than once, should he just find a scapegoat and end the matter, nominally giving an explanation to that person?
But for a while, he still couldn't make up his mind. The red dragon envoy was forced to retreat, and the blue dragon envoy was cooperating. He had to avoid that person's sharp edge for the time being.
If he was really vague, he was worried about whether that person would take the opportunity to hit him!
"Sir, there is something discovered here!"
It was just when the Black Dragon envoy was impatient but had to be patient.
Several of his servants who were investigating together with the envoy of Grand Duke Calinsey suddenly squatted down and dug for a while. One of them suddenly showed a happy face with dragon scales looming on his face. And quickly walked towards him.
oh?
But the black dragon envoy's expression did not move at all.
There were discoveries, there were discoveries. In these months, a lot of things were discovered, but in the end...it was still nothing!
But he finally walked over.
Then...his eyes suddenly became focused!
He saw that in the middle of the excavated bodies, some of which had almost decayed and turned into white bones, there was a section that was also a bone, but in his eyes, it had a completely different composition from the other bones. Including breath.
"Sir, this should be the bone of some kind of dragon beast, and judging from some magic residues on it, it should be a modified skeleton undead, with signs of the magic strengthening of the 'steel skeleton'."
"So, among the people attacking or chasing people here, there is most likely a powerful necromancer!"
"I have two suggestions."
"First, the Skeleton Dragon Beast is not very common. With a wide range of matches, it should be possible to find him."
"Secondly, with this bone, if we can ask some high-level spellcasters to detect it, we may not be unable to find its location. However, it may be possible to alert the necromancer in advance!"
The envoy of Archduke Calinsey, a wanderer who had taken up his post as a mountain scout, explained and suggested concisely and clearly.
He didn't say much about why those white bones were from the Dragon Worship Cult and not someone else.
The Dragon Worshiping Sect itself should have a lot of people who worship the Dragon!
"Necromancer!"
The black dragon envoy was thoughtful, and then nodded in agreement.
Although the Lord of Talisman is very secretive, leaving almost no actual clues from beginning to end, it is not impossible that he may have inadvertently overlooked something, especially these bones, which are most likely just from unintelligent undead!
At least, that's what he thinks!
That’s how we found out this clue!
It seems that this time we can really settle things here!
After thinking about it like this, the black dragon envoy said with a look of satisfaction in his eyes: "Very good! Now that we have a goal, let's ask the Grand Duke to arrange it again. But I also really want to know who is actually so provocative. Our relationship with the principality!”
Presumably, Tessel?
Or maybe he is on the wrong side of the Grand Duke?
In his mind, the Black Dragon Envoy had already made some guesses about the identity of the Master of Talisman.
When he said this, several envoys from Grand Duke Calinsey naturally did not respond.
Soon, the group of people took the clues and headed straight back to the heart of Karinsei.
Due to the pressure of supplies, Grand Duke Tours would not refuse the opportunity to resolve this incident quickly.
Under the detection of a palace mage, a direction gradually came out.
Dark underground cave!
Traces of the undead!
Desert area!
