"It's pointless to struggle! That pathetic god can't help you! You and your companions will die here!"
The Mummy Lord showed no emotion at all towards the sudden upgrade of the Holy Knight.
Because no matter whether it is a LV1 paladin or a LV2 paladin, it is impossible for them to pose any threat to a powerful undead creature like him.
What's more, Ai Luolin had used up her daily [Evil Breaker] ability because of impulsiveness.
But even so, she still held the flaming two-handed sword tightly in front of Zuo Si, without any thought of retreating at all. She would rather die in battle than fail to keep the oath she had made.
The paladin's bravery, perseverance, and stubbornness, as well as his unwillingness to back down when facing powerful evil forces, were fully demonstrated at this moment.
Especially the paladins who choose to serve Ilmater, the god of suffering.
They are often less afraid of pain and death than the paladins who serve Tyr, the god of justice, are loyal to Torm, the god of courage, and Lathander, the lord of the morning.
After all, Ilmater's teachings repeatedly emphasize that bearing suffering on behalf of others is the most sacred act.
Therefore, his paladins are also particularly sacrificial.
Just as the Mummy Lord began to prepare more powerful and higher-level magic, Zuo Si, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly had a dozen cards in his hand.
He had an extremely dangerous smile on his face, and his left index finger gently slid across his neck, performing a standard throat-cutting ceremony.
The next second...
A total of eight cards were activated at the same time.
Before the Mummy Lord could react to what was happening, he found himself engulfed in a dazzling red flame and white light.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! The flames and heat waves generated by the simultaneous explosion of four [Fireballs] overlapped each other, directly turning the place where they were located into a terrifying purgatory.
Not only were the four ancient mummies burned to ashes on the spot, but even the hard stone ground was melting due to the high temperature.
But do you think that's the end?
No! The frenzied Zuo Si used four [Magic Cards: Fireball] but still felt that the power was not enough, so he activated another four [Magic Cards: Advanced Strike Against Undead].
The latter is a third-level spell specifically targeting undead creatures.
It can release powerful positive energy rays, directly hitting the target undead creatures from a distance and causing amazing damage.
Since he knew that his spellcasting level was relatively low, even if he cast the third-level [Fireball], its power might not be half that of the [Fireball Wand].
Therefore, the only way to make up for the lack of quality is through quantity.
Have to say!
Eight magic cards were activated at the same time. Not to mention their destructive power, the visual effect alone was enough to shock anyone who saw it.
Whether it was the massive flames and heat waves caused by the fireball, or the dazzling white light produced by the positive energy rays raging in the air, it seemed as if it would destroy all the undead creatures in the entire tomb.
Just look at the dazed expression on Miss Paladin's face to know how shocked and confused she is by Zuo Si's sudden outburst.
You should know that even if you want to activate a scroll or other magic item, you still need the corresponding casting action.
Wait for one to take effect before starting the other.
Otherwise, activating multiple scrolls or magic items at the same time is likely to cause magical disorder.
In serious cases, there may even be explosions or other unknown magical effects.
This is like a person mixing multiple different magic potions. Before one bottle starts to take effect, he drinks another bottle, mixing them in his stomach. This is absolutely a suicidal act.
But Zuo Si's planeswalker card system completely broke these "common sense".
As long as he is willing and has enough mana to pay, he can even activate all the cards in his hand at once.
No spells! No casting actions! The only uncertainty now is whether the cards will still work in chaotic magic areas, dead magic areas, and antimagic fields.
When the effects of all eight magic cards disappeared, the disadvantage of Zuo Si's low spellcasting level finally became apparent.
Apart from the undead within the coverage area of the fireball, even the Mummy Lord could not be killed.
It was merely severely injured and left in an extremely weakened state.
This powerful undead creature struggled to exit the area where the ground was melted by the fireball, raised a holy emblem representing the ancient god of death, Jaeger, and tried to cast the [Holy Domain Spell] again to buy itself some time.
But at this critical moment, the effect of the [Silence] suddenly disappeared! Alena, who broke free from the control, began to chant the spell again.
moment!
The shadow assassin jumped out of the darkness, raised the magic ring that was flashing red light in his hand, aimed at the Mummy Lord more than ten meters away, and activated the spell stored in it without hesitation.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Several more fireballs hit his face, abruptly interrupting the final boss's spell chanting.
Immediately afterwards, Alena's spell was ready.
Four gorgeous and dazzling magic missiles flew out from between his fingers, drew graceful arcs in the air, and then hit the Mummy Lord all at once.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Although the damage caused by each missile was not high, the damage caused by four missiles hitting it in a row was indeed not low.
Plus, the opponent had already taken all the damage from [Ring of Continuous Fireballs]...
After the last missile hit it, it could no longer hold on and fell down.
The moment it died, all these controlled undead creatures immediately returned to acting on their instincts, and the threat they posed dropped sharply.
Soon, with Alena and the large stone element working at full power, they finally cleared out all the undead creatures in the bottom tomb.
The black energy absorbed from these undead creatures alone almost burst the mana pool several times.
Zuo Si hurriedly allocated a large amount of mana to the planeswalker profession to avoid unnecessary waste.
After finishing all this, he began to turn his attention to the huge sarcophagus that had been opened in the center of the tomb.
You don't need to ask to know that this is the place where the mummy lord just crawled out.
Through the light created by magic, one can vaguely see that there are quite a lot of funerary objects piled up in the coffin.
Among them, the gold coins minted in the ancient Calishite region alone densely covered the entire bottom layer, numbering at least thousands.
But compared to this ordinary wealth, Zuo Si cared more about the slightly thick book placed in the coffin and a prismatic gem emitting golden light placed on the book.
"Is this... Ioun stone?"
Zuo Si carefully took out the gem from the coffin, and then activated the magic attached to it.
moment!
The gem flew up from the palm of his hand out of thin air and hovered just above his head.
He felt that his brain had suddenly become clearer and sharper, and it was obvious that his intellectual attributes had been enhanced.
Apparently, this is an Ioun stone that can increase the wearer's intelligence attribute.
As to how much it has increased, Zuo Si does not know yet.
At least you can't get an exact number before summoning the "legacy" to check the specific properties.
"Be careful! There may be curses or other scary things in these coffins!" Ai Luolin warned vigilantly.
But Zuo Si shook his head and said, "There is no need to worry about this.
First of all, I have a certain ability to identify magical items, and I can basically tell whether it is cursed or not when I get it in my hands.
Secondly, the power of the manipulator behind this is far beyond our ability to deal with.
If they wanted to kill me, or curse me, they wouldn't have to go to all this trouble.
The last and most important point.
The other party promised in the invitation letter that they would provide me with sufficient rewards at the end of the game.
The things in this coffin are obviously specially prepared rewards.
Otherwise, why would gold coins from the Xiaen Dynasty two thousand years ago appear in an ancient tomb dating back more than four thousand years?
And the person buried in the main coffin was not a wizard, but a priest of the ancient god of death, Jaeger? If I am not mistaken, the real things stored in this ancient tomb have long been taken away by them.
What we are seeing now is nothing more than the result of the other party’s careful planning…”
