Just like the Tower of Domination, this place has been regarded as an extension of Vizeme Manor. Those real shadows that are limited here can be summoned by Gavin at will. The only thing that needs to be paid attention to is to balance the number of foundation stones and real shadows.
In other words, Gavin could originally use the power of 20,000 shadows, but because he needed to transform some of the real shadows into entities, he could only use 10,000.
To put it bluntly, this is still a competition between the two sides of shadow energy, but it has been turned into a more intuitive ghost war mode.
The reason why this unique phenomenon occurs is probably related to the uniqueness of Vizeme Manor and its shadow power. In this case, it has even more advantages.
As Arms said before, the winner gets it all.
Just seeing the real shadow, Arms's face was full of excitement and greed. As a necromancer, of course he knew the uniqueness of this kind of undead. Their growth limit is very high, and they are all potential. night shadow.
But the difficulty of obtaining it is also extremely high. It is easy to kill one person, but it is difficult to kill the same person twice and replace it with its shadow and transform it into a real shadow, because there are many different things inside. The determining factor is that this person must be resurrected after his first death, instead of choosing to go to the kingdom of gods to reincarnate. If that is the case, this shadow must find the reincarnated person and kill him to get his soul. The difficulty is similar to finding a needle in a haystack.
The other party has so many real shadows in their hands. It is definitely not a normal process. Instead, they have some kind of secret method or special ability in their hands that directly transforms them into real shadows at once, without giving them the ability to be resurrected a second time. .
If I can take the opportunity to take this ability as my own, and combine it with my ability in necromancy, I won't need to secretly make small moves in the material plane. I can completely dominate the shadow plane and form an army. His own night shadow army and night shadow kingdom.
But when he saw the six-armed snake demon, his expression suddenly froze. The strength of this prey was far beyond his imagination. If you were not careful, it would not be a matter of breaking or breaking the teeth, but yourself. Devoured by prey.
Gavin had been observing Arms's reaction. When he saw the change in his expression, he couldn't help but ask: "Where's Grace? What did you do to her?"
Arms obviously did not know about the existence of the six-armed snake demon, which showed that Grace did not report to him the information about her secret meeting, thus proving that Grace's surrender was true.
Gavin was not too concerned about Grace's life and death. He just wanted to take the opportunity to understand the situation of the Goliath Corps led by Catherine. This was closely related to whether Grace's surrender was true or not.
"Are you talking about this traitor?" Arms took out a crystal ball from his dimensional bag, which contained a lifelike miniature man in a completely still state. Who else could it be if it wasn't Grace.
Seeing this situation, Gavin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said thoughtfully: "Grace really betrayed you, but you knew it from the beginning to the end, so you deliberately asked her to pass on the secret passage information to Mine is to lure me and my elites from the direction of the secret passage. Therefore, the Ivanso Dungeon is a trap, but you didn't expect that I would take advantage of it and only sent a part of my elites there. The real main attack The direction is still on the ground.”
If there is a good conspiracy and trick that is not shared with others, it will be meaningless. This is the case for Arms. After listening to Gavin's analysis, he couldn't help but corrected: "Most of your speculations are... It's correct, but you missed the point, that is Grace's betrayal, which was also intentional on my part. Her biggest weakness is that there is still a trace of humanity deep in her soul, but she is not aware of it herself. I just need to tell her, I am going to sacrifice all the citizens of Ivanso and release deadly poison on a large scale on the Dragon Coast. She will leave me impatiently and sell me to her opponent, hoping to take the opportunity to eradicate me... Haha, this I just happened to take advantage of you, but it’s a pity that you are more cunning than I thought, and you actually played a trick with me, but it’s good to be able to trap some of your elites, and you yourself ended up in the net.”
Even when he was showing off his plan, Arms still did not forget to take the opportunity to attack Gavin, hinting that Catherine's journey would be full of misfortune.
"Let me guess, what kind of trap have you arranged underground?" Gavin was not affected at all. "Since your elite are all around, it means that there are not many troops below. As for the power of your deadly poison, it is far from the legendary It is so powerful, or it has a fatal flaw. There is no way to spread it on a large scale like a plague. It can only be effective on a few people like this skull dragon or these bone claws. Otherwise, according to your devil's style, there will be a natural disaster of the undead on the dragon coast. They won't still be huddled in one place, so the most likely possibility is to blow up the Ivanso dungeon and bury them alive! If it is your trap and is launched before the fog barrier is broken, it may be possible to cause some damage to them. It hurts, but after this, I’m afraid you will be disappointed.”
Catherine is a complete electorate of Ms. Strategy. She definitely has the abilities of her incomplete electorate, and she is also a complete version.
Once she discovers that the fog barrier surrounding Ivanso has failed, she will definitely use her troop formation ability to penetrate deeply quickly and tear through all the opponent's traps.
The speculation about the deadly poison was not something Gavin came up with on the spot, but was brought up by Catherine at the latest round of military meetings.
Gavin and the others were more or less misled by the plague virus on Yeshandara's body, mistaking it for the true power of the deadly poison.
If he was really that powerful, Arms would have tried every means to poison the conqueror's army.
This did not happen, and they could have used the army of conquerors to take tight precautions. They did not give them a chance to explain. They just sent a few poisonous undead to scare those cities as a bluff, but did not actually poison those cities to completely let the plague. There is no way to use this explanation to cause a side impact and impact on the conqueror's army.
As for conscience, the devil has no such thing.
The only reason why I didn't do it was not that I didn't want to do it, but that I just couldn't do it.
Even the matter of sacrificing the entire citizens of Ivanso was false news released by Arms to them through Grace, in order to make them have some scruples when attacking the city, not dare to use their full strength, and follow the opponent's plan.
Arms's expression confirmed this speculation.
From the very beginning, Gavin and the others overestimated Arms' strength, so they were led by the nose and wasted a lot of time.
If we launch a strong attack from the ground from the beginning, even if we don't break the fog barrier, it will not be difficult to rely on the Goliath Battle Group and the Hobgoblin Titan Corps to raid the City Hall and have a king-meeting with Arms. The only thing that cannot be guaranteed is how many casualties they will suffer in the process.
To deal with these ghosts, neither the Goliath Corps nor the Hobgoblin Giant Corps have an advantage. Paladins are professionals in this aspect.
"It doesn't matter whether they live or die. As long as I can capture you, even if Ivanso is lost, I will be the final winner." Arms waved his hand heavily, "Kill them."
The verbal exchange between the two was also the process of gathering forces from both sides. They felt that they were almost done, so they naturally stopped talking nonsense.
"Attack." Gavin also waved his hand heavily and ordered loudly.
They are now in a duel arena. There is no possibility of detours and tactics. The only option is to fight soldiers against soldiers and against generals.
The fighting methods adopted by both sides are also strikingly similar.
On the Necromancer's side, the wise bone dragon named Agatha charged in front, and he himself followed closely behind him, with the four most powerful bone claws guarding him.
On Gavin's side, the six-armed snake demon charged at the front, and he followed closely behind. Daphne also summoned her tiger shadow mount and led several powerful real shadow cavalry to guard the surroundings.
Although this space is formed by negative energy, it is still dominated by the laws of physics, and the fighting method is no different from the material plane.
Before the warriors from both sides fought, the mage took the first step.
Naturally, the one who struck first was the Necromancer Arms. He quickly formed a seal with both hands, and then raised his hand to cast the Finger of Death, the Necromancer's signature spell.
Gavin stopped suddenly, retreated instead of advancing, raised his hand and fired.
Spell countermeasures do not necessarily involve waiting until the spell takes effect and then dispelling it. That is the stupidest method.
The smartest way is not to give the opponent a chance to cast a spell or to successfully cast a spell at all. Even if the spell is cast successfully, as long as the spell is not within the range of the spell, the opponent will have nothing to do.
The other party is a necromancer, especially good at necromancer attack spells. Blasphemy, soul confinement, banshee wail, and finger of death are all specifically aimed at living people, and he is the only living person here. , once caught, the fun is not ordinary - these negative energy spells have no effect on the undead whose whole body is full of negative energy.
A tall bone claw took a step forward and stood in front of the Necromancer, helping him withstand the shot and allowing him to cast the spell smoothly. However, Gavin, the primary target of the spell, had already run away far away. He was already far away. Out of range of the Finger of Death.
While these undead attack spells have powerful single-kill capabilities, they also have another flaw that is not a flaw, and that is that the range is usually not far, usually medium to short range.
In desperation, Arms could only aim the finger of death at the secondary target, the six-armed snake demon, and prepared to try his luck to see if he could kill this terrifying existence instantly.
It was just that the moment Death pointed out his hand, the Necromancer was dumbfounded, because the six-armed snake demon so close at hand was no longer in a physical state, but turned into a night shadow, a legendary six-armed snake demon night. film.
How can this be?
How can a person switch back and forth between the physical and undead forms?
What kind of monster did the other party summon?
The Finger of Death, which is composed entirely of negative energy, has no effect on the six-armed snake demon whose body is also composed entirely of negative energy.
People all over the world say that devils are more cunning than devils. It can only be said that this concept is one-sided. It only talks about the more common low-level devils and demons. Not to mention the high-level demons such as the six-armed snake demon, even those extraordinary medium-level demons. If they want to climb to a high position, in addition to possessing great strength, they must also possess cunning and wisdom, otherwise they will be replaced by a more powerful and cunning existence before long.
The six-armed snake demon made full use of the information gap to catch Necromancer Arms by surprise, wasting a precious casting opportunity, and made full use of his physical speed advantage to close the distance between the two sides.
As for short-distance teleportation, it's not that the six-armed snake demon doesn't want to use it, but it's just that it can't be used. This is not the real material plane, but simulated with negative energy. It is not only out of the material plane, but also out of the shadow plane. They are in the middle of the gap between the two. Before the winner is decided between the two sides, let alone short-distance teleportation, even plane teleportation cannot be used.
In other words, this is a fight to the death. Both sides have no retreat and can only move forward to win the final victory.
One wrong step, every wrong step.
The six-armed snake demon who transformed into Night Shadow directly numbed the necromancer's claws. Since he didn't know that Gavin's men also had a large number of undead soldiers, the high-level spells he prepared were all those he was best at dealing with living bodies. The most lethal necromancy spells, these spells are not only ineffective but also have a therapeutic effect on Yeying, and the legendary Yeying is immune to spells below the sixth level.
For a moment, he was at a loss what to do. The only thing he could do was to throw a dispel magic on the six-armed snake demon to remove the spells on her that could improve her attributes, such as brute force and lightness.
All that was left was to watch helplessly as the six-armed snake demon wielded six strange snake-shaped swords and collided with the bone dragon, and the sound of sharp blades hitting bones echoed in his ears.
The six-armed snake demon in the night shadow state adopts the standard open and close attack method. Whether it is the attack of the bone dragon or the bone claw, it ignores the attacks and uses its own attacks to the extreme.
The extended piercing attack of the bone claw's sharp claws is simply scratching the itch for the six-armed snake demon Yeying. It can't even break through the defense, and it can't penetrate Yeying's 25 points of damage reduction at all.
The claws of the bone dragon Agatha and the razor dragon wings are relatively powerful, and can break through Ye Shadow's damage reduction. At least every hit has seven or eight points of damage, and the six-armed snake demon he catches is overflowing with black energy. , when both claws and wings are deployed, the total points in one round are more than thirty. Yeying is not good at life, but it is still quite impressive. The six-armed snake demon cannot withstand her four rounds of full-round attacks. .
But after only one round of fighting, the skull dragon gave up.
Because the six-armed snake demon's attacks were more brutal than his, he gave the opponent a full round of attack time, which was enough time for the opponent to return one round to himself.
He has two claws and two wings, while the opponent strikes with six swords. Each sword is harsh and painful. He also has a certain amount of physical damage reduction, but it is far not as strong as the opponent. After one round, each sword will take away at least A dozen points of vitality, six sword strikes, wiped away nearly eighty points.
If he hadn't been transformed by the necromancer Arms and possessed the blasphemous and powerful special ability of bone claws, making his vitality far greater than that of ordinary undead, this round of attacks would have cut off half of his life. Even so, He couldn't withstand the six-armed snake demon's two full-round attacks.
In the second round, I had to change my fighting style and use parry instead of attack. Even so, it only slowed down the defeat. After all, the opponent has six arms, so it is difficult to defend fully. If you are not careful, you will be struck by two or three swords. , the opponent's speed is still higher than his own, constantly spinning around him, trying to kill the necromancer, so he has to resist hard.
The only good thing is that there is a necromancer behind him, who can guide negative energy into his body and heal some of his injuries.
But the problem is, if they can heal, so can the other party, and the priest who has also transformed into a real shadow evil god is doing the same.
The necromancer was restrained by the six-armed snake demon. On the other side, Gavin was on a killing spree. It could be said that all methods were used, and the roaring sound was endless.
What he used was not the Roar of Death, but the dwarf alchemical muskets he had captured from the slave traders during the previous attack on the Basilisk's Nest. The cumulative number was quite impressive, with more than fifty guns, all of which were purchased from the Ximen Black Market. The ones purchased above cost up to 3,000 gold coins each.
Their power in naval battles is obvious to all. That is to say, when they encountered the hobgoblin regiment led by Gavin, they were defeated. If it were an ordinary army or pirates, they would have to carry fifty powerful dwarf alchemical muskets. The difficulty of grabbing a ship is not that high. Those who are below the extraordinary level will be directly suppressed and unable to lift their heads.
Gavin distributed most of them to the Tessel sailors led by Copperfield on the spot to increase their long-range firepower. He also took a small part with him and planned to find professionals to study it to see if it could be used. They cannot be modified and imitated by combining the characteristics of Death Roar.
Now he has drawn it out and used it directly. To deal with those ghosts, ghosts, and shadows, Gavin basically shot them one at a time, without any ambiguity.
Don't forget, he also has the special ability of an immortal enemy. All his attacks are sacred attacks to the undead. That is to say, as long as he hits, the damage value will be directly taken as the maximum, which is the dwarf alchemy gun. The power is slightly worse than the Death Roar, and it also has a damage die of 4D8. Add Gavin's messy career modifier, and the damage directly exceeds 40 points.
The health points of undead monsters below extraordinary level are rarely too high, especially those of spirits.
Even Shadow and the others' natural physical damage reduction of 50% is no longer useful at this moment.
It's not that ghosts are born with this ability, but that they can flash at high frequencies in the shadow plane and the material plane, giving them only a 50% chance of being hit, but this is neither the material plane nor the material plane. It's not the shadow plane, but the gap between the two. Plane teleportation is prohibited again. There's no way to flash back and forth, so there's no such thing as passing through.
