Chapter 0588: The Might of the Mage Tower
As the lord of Stratholme, Skeletron is in full control of the necropolis city.
From the beginning of the battle to the present day, all the military commanders and battle heroes gathered here must be at his disposal in order to complete the defense of Stratholme.
Seriously, Skeletron is the most serious and down-to-earth cemetery hero in the entire cemetery.
He accompanied Li Xun, the master of the cemetery, through the most difficult period, and laid the current foundation of the undead world with his diligent efforts. Most of the foreign mercenaries currently active in the cemetery system are from his subordinates, which also makes his prestige in the cemetery unique for a while.
With these exploits, even if Skeletron is only level 14 now, he is still a well-deserved boss in the army in the face of Hilgai, who has already controlled a plane.
Therefore, when Li Xun, the owner of the cemetery, and his group of staff were talking in the mage tower, the city hall was a different busy and lively scene.
In the center of the Hall of Bones is a huge Hologram of Stratholme terrain, around which several cemetery bigwigs are around, pointing and discussing something. The entire wall on one side of the hall was divided by countless water mirrors, each of which presented an instant image of a battlefield somewhere in the distance.
As a wartime command center, this place has gathered all the combat heroes and super mercenaries that the Great Cemetery can mobilize. The people who can enter the main hall are the best people in the cemetery, and the most important thing is the level of a mercenary leader. As for the ordinary mercenaries and minor heroes, they can only wait for specific battle orders to be issued in the side hall or city square.
Although the power of the cemetery has been expanding rapidly in the past six months, the foundation is still not thick, so whenever there is a large-scale war, all members still need to go into battle. So standing at the door of this hall, you can find every combat member of the cemetery system.
Compared with the tense and busy commanders in the main hall, the guys hiding in the side hall seemed much more casual and relaxed, and many of them were more familiar with each other, and they even got together and whispered secretly.
"Is there anything left for us in today's battle? Until now, it is all the peripheral corps fighting, and we are here to watch. What are these bigwigs waiting for? ”
"What are you waiting for? Of course, I'm waiting for that legendary lich! ”
"O legendary lich! That's a legendary lich. I can't help but tremble at the thought of this......"
"Cut, what's there for a legendary lich? Listening to the guys who came back last time, they have even touched the demigods. ”
"Demigod ......"
"Demigod ......"
The words of their companion left several listeners speechless for a while, but at the thought of such an almost godlike being as a demigod, they couldn't help but tremble slightly.
More than a year ago, they may have been reigning in some gloomy cave, and the most they saw all day was gloomy dark clouds and overwhelming desolation. At that time, in their lives, a high-level undead who had crossed level 10 was already a terrifying demon god who had passed through the heavens and latitudes. But now, they have also crossed the 10-level threshold one after another, and have become high-level beings who were envied in the past, and in front of them, higher and more terrifying worlds are also unfolding one by one.
Legendary level undead, that is, undead kings, used to be like legends in their minds, and there was no overlap or intersection with their lives at all. But today, they were about to stretch out their claws in front of a legendary lich, a terrifying being comparable to the undead king!
The world of the past was presented to them with an unprecedented clear vision, which made them tremble in their hearts, but also a sense of existence from the depths of their hearts.
They are different, they are unique.
Each individual is different from the mountains of zombies piled up outside Stratholme, and they are clearly aware of their own existence.
This may be their first realization after they initially got rid of that state of confusion!
This perception makes them excited, but also calm and profound, and many guys fall in love with looking up at the sky and thinking about why they exist. According to reports, some of the Taverns of the Dead have appeared in some of the necro taverns, crappy minstrels, disguised as corpse witches or skeleton mages, who tirelessly recite their quaint "poems" to everyone who passes by.
What is poetry?
Although many of the undead don't know about it, watching their stumbling crappy performance, and then drinking a glass of soul wine, is the most memorable moment of the undead's life.
Just as these mercenaries were chattering around and discussing topics of interest to them, there was movement in the Hall of Bones.
The tall and solid body of the Skeleton King, wielding a white bone sword, stood majestically in the center of the hall, and orders were issued quickly and without stopping. The five high-ranking necrocers who followed him were constantly using the teleportation technique, passing every command to a tactical commander in real time.
The order was passed like a stream, and the combat units of the cemetery, which had already been determined to be under their command, also moved in response to the call and began to enter their own combat posts in advance.
Several dragon lich lords came to the city square at the same time, loudly reciting the list of personnel to the mercenaries and minor heroes waiting here. The guys who had been given their names stood behind them silently, and entered the mage tower in an orderly manner with them.
Most of the guys who were given their names were priests, so it seems that Stratholme's long-dormant mage tower is also going to be powerful this time. The undead mercenaries waiting in the city square exchanged a meaningful look with their excitement, silently waiting for their names to appear.
……
A quarter of an hour later, Lux, who was standing under the clouds silently watching the battle between the giant bear and the fierce wolf, finally raised his head in confusion, and the cross-star soul fire hidden in the sunken eye socket was inexplicably agitated, and he looked at the undead capital in the distance.
The clouds in the sky were turning and churning, as if an invisible force was pulling them.
In just a moment, a strange vortex in the shape of a funnel appeared above the City of the Dead, and slowly but surely extended downward. Looking at its trend, the low end of the spiky funnel is approaching the mysterious mage tower that stands in the center of the city of the undead, and there are signs of connecting with the spire of the tower.
Colorful magical lights floated over the City of the Dead, the form of overly dense and active elemental particles. The elements of earth, fire, water, and wind are hoarded in the air according to a mysterious and bizarre pattern, which also triggers an endless stream of visions of heaven and earth.
Burning clouds, freezing fog, lightning thunderclouds, super tornadoes......
A strange scene that is rare to see in a hundred years actually appeared in the sky above the capital of the dead at the same time, and magically maintained a strange balance of non-interference.
The opposing mage tower is starting to gather power!
Just by looking at it, Lux understood what the other party wanted to do.
The Mage Tower, as the most important magical abode for the mage, also assumes the basic function of a combat platform. A well-functioning mage tower, under the auspices of a master, can easily fight against more than ten powerhouses of the same level, and even cross-level challenges.
These things Lux understands that judging from the situation in the past month in the undead world, there are basically no large-scale magical facilities that can still operate here, let alone big things like the Mage Tower that need to be carefully maintained and repaired.
But now with the appearance of the vision of heaven and earth, Lux's heart is becoming more and more heavy.
There is also a functioning mage tower in the capital of the dead opposite, which undoubtedly weighs a heavy weight on the scales of war. If there is another Legendary-level figure in charge, Lord Sazastan's plan this time may really end without a problem!
On the other side, with the arrival of a large number of priests, the mage tower, which had been obscure and obscure, finally tore off the veil of gentleness. After being dull for a long time, he finally began to gradually exert his strength, showing his fangs and claws to the world for the first time.
When the many spellcasters inside the mage tower began to work together to promote the operation of various magic arrays, echoing all the magic facilities that filled the city, an invisible transparent light shield enclosed the entire Stratholme into it.
This is an indestructible magical force field produced by the interaction and influence of dozens of layers of magic arrays, which can not only defend against external magic attacks, but also isolate the infiltration of a qiē foreign source of magic energy. More importantly, as long as the energy of the mage tower, which is the core of the magic circle, is not depleted, it can continue to operate, and constantly repair the external attack damage.
The Mage Tower of a normal human city can only be used as a solitary magical building, and it is difficult to integrate with the city it guards. Even if such a shield could be propped up, it would be too fragile because it lacked the necessary support joints.
But Stratholme, or all the cemetery cities, are different. Almost all of the buildings in the city are interconnected, and act as a temporary node to support the flow and accumulation of magical energy. In this way, once the mage tower, which is the core of the city, begins to exert its strength, the magic facilities of the entire city resonate, and are automatically integrated into the construction of a magic system that integrates attack and defense.
Although the casters stationed in the Mage Tower had not undergone similar training and cultivation, under the tuning and guidance of Li Xun's humanoid spirit synchronization machine, and then Issa's energy-efficient and energy-efficient cuò brought out his spiritual power, a scene that shocked even the Holy Lich appeared.
The condensed vast spiritual power drilled out of the mage tower, probed towards the elemental vortex churning in the sky, and guided this elemental energy to merge into the magic system of the mage tower, filling the gaps between the many magic festivals tightly, and constantly hoarding strength for subsequent attacks and defenses.
The thick black cloud began to rotate slowly around the mage spire, and a terrifying cloud that could affect thirty or forty miles was rapidly forming. Several thick super-powerful tornadoes formed spiral arms were moving around the mage tower, constantly absorbing the vast magical energy from heaven and earth, and continuously pouring it into the mage tower.
The ghostly banshees who loved to wander the clouds were gone, and no creature in the sky of Stratholme dared to set foot in it except for the terrifying magical energy. Flying on such an occasion, the agitation of the elements caused by friction alone will trigger the elemental vortex or the annihilation of local elements, which is not hesitant to seek death.
At this moment, Stratholme was not only the capital of the undead, but also a city of magic.
