In the dense forest outside Satellite City No. 16, in the cave.
Sun Jincheng and the others put on black robes again.
"Chief, what is this retreat?"
Number 2 was a little confused. Their original plan was to quickly capture Satellite City No. 16 and then move to Satellite City No. 17. Although retreat was one of the situations they had discussed, they had no such plan.
"The situation has changed. The warlock in Satellite City No. 16 has also reached the mastery stage of magic. He is also an earth-attribute warlock with strong defensive capabilities." Sun Jincheng said without moving his face, "Also, this time I went in and I didn't fight that warlock much, I just fought with his three bugs for a while."
"Three bugs? Are they the three of the five bugs that have been around the warlock?" asked No. 3.
"Well, those three golden bugs each have innate spells. It's hard for you to resist one alone. Even if there are three of them together, even I will have no way to defeat them. Considering that the warlock doesn't have Take action, and there are still two bugs on standby, so I think it’s better to come back first to discuss countermeasures.”
"Indeed, retreating is correct. If those two bugs are similar in strength to the golden bugs, we will be in trouble." No. 4 nodded: "Fortunately, the wind and snow obscured the warlock's vision, and he did not release the remaining two The bugs are against us”.
"Chief, it seems that the strength of Satellite City No. 16 has exceeded our estimate. Is there still a need to fight with that warlock?" No. 2 asked.
Sun Jincheng glanced at the remaining six people. He released his spiritual consciousness and swept across the cave. After a while, he said: "It mainly depends on you. The danger of attacking No. 16 this time is greater than expected. This warlock who controls insects has not only Bugs for combat. This time I also found a kind of bug for warning. I don’t know what other bugs he has under his hands. Moreover, when I deal with the warlock, I may not be able to take care of you. The five bugs under his hands may will attack you."
"Forget it, we can just capture Satellite City No. 17 this year," No. 7 said conservatively.
"No, we have spent so much effort on Satellite City No. 16, it would be a pity to give up all of a sudden," said No. 3.
No. 5 and No. 6 also agreed with No. 3.
"I also think we should give up. Even if we attack the satellite city, there will always be guards weaker than No. 16. We don't need to worry," No. 4 said.
No. 2 was the only one who did not express his position. He originally wanted to give up, but then he thought about the countless materials they had spent on luring wild beasts and birds from the dense forest this month. These materials had been collected by them for more than half a year, and they could do it all at once. He felt bad about such a big loss-making transaction.
"I think it's better to test the attack," No. 2 said: "The satellite cities here in Nanman often change their defenses, especially during the period when the earth's essence gathers. We have to find out the defense forces in other satellite cities, and it will cost a lot. Time, maybe the next target will be more difficult than Satellite City No. 16.
"Since four of you feel that you can continue to attack, let's attack." Sun Jincheng didn't want to give up. He spent dozens of mana to release this spell that continued to snowfall a large area, and he continued to consume several mana every day. There are not many vitality stones left that they brought from the sect, and it is extremely difficult to replenish the vitality stones in the Xiangshan Sect. Without the vitality stones, their mana will not be restored quickly, but they will not have the ability to continue fighting.
"This time I have to wait a little longer. It will take about ten days. I want to release another extreme spell," Sun Jincheng said.
"Leader, is this okay? Originally, this 'ice and snow' has been continuously consuming your mana, and with another extreme spell, your mana will be tight against the warlock in the later stage," No. 2 said worriedly.
"There is no way. If I want to deal with that warlock, I must first break through those insects. Otherwise, even if I won't lose, there is basically no hope of winning." Sun Jincheng shook his head. "This opponent is unusual, so you must be careful." .
"Yes, chief."
…
Satellite City Tower No. 16.
"The formation is really magical." Zhang Changkong kept trying to enter the tower, but there was an invisible force field flowing on the wall and the door was closed tightly.
"However, it is not absolute that you need to break the formation talisman to enter by force. As far as I feel the strength of the tower, using the concussive attack of "Pulse Mastery", it will probably last about three or two days, and it will probably be able to break through." Zhang Changkong considered, The formation in this satellite city is probably so weak because it is a branch of the formation in the main city. Otherwise, the strength of the formation would not be worthy of its reputation.
Zhang Changkong looked at the sky. Snow was still falling, indicating that the enemy had not given up yet.
"It's been ten days. Is the enemy really patient? Or has he prepared another spell that will cause large-scale snowfall like this?"
Zhang Changkong really didn't understand why the enemy last time was obviously not much stronger than him. At most, he had more magic power in his body, which was purer, knew more spells, and was more proficient in using spells than him, but there was no reason why he could release it. To produce a spell of this scale, the effect of this spell simply exceeded the limits of what he knew about warlocks in some aspects.
"It seems that it is not possible to be a mountain man in the Sanhe Rainforest. Right now, we are all warlocks, and the enemy's spells are beyond our understanding. If we are promoted to a mage in the future and are accidentally challenged by someone else, then I'm too embarrassed to see anyone." Zhang Changkong thought that he should make some friends in Nanman Tianguan, even superficial friends. He should communicate more and learn as much hidden information as possible. Knowledge is power. For example, this time, if He knows the general details of the enemy's spell that keeps snow falling, such as the mana consumption and the weaknesses of the spell. He can deal with the enemy specifically and spend ten points of effort to achieve twelve points of effect, instead of just watching like now. Snowflake was in a trance, passively responding to the enemy's attack.
"It seems that the enemy was testing the attack last time, and the enemy's attack did not start until the third month was almost over." Just when Zhang Changkong was thinking this.
A whistling sound came from the sky, and a snow eagle shot toward Zhang Changkong. When it was about three meters away from Zhang Changkong, it was shot through by a stone spear shot from the ground.
"Huh? It's really a mimic attack formed by snow." Zhang Changkong watched as the remains of Snow Eagle shattered into a small pile of snow.
Zhang Changkong looked up at the countless snow eagles flying in the sky. The feathers on each wing were lifelike, and the wings of the snow eagles flapped when they flew.
"What is this? A magical creature?" Zhang Changkong was speechless. The spells released by the enemy again and again made him confused. He also used "Earth and Stone Mastery" to create stone men and other things, but as soon as he left his Mana, without the command of his will, is really just a stone. Without any intelligence, it cannot even set orders.
But looking at the snow eagle in the sky now, although it is definitely not as smart as real birds, it still has rudimentary intelligence. I think it can do some simple things without direct control by a magician.
"This spell has aroused my interest. It seems that even if you are trying to attack this time, I will not let you escape easily. Originally, I wanted to wait until your final attack is almost successful, and then I will attack with all my strength to knock you down in one fell swoop. Abyss, what a pity the script is." As Zhang Changkong thought, five insects started to fly.
