"Don't worry. The chance of those rocks hitting me is probably less than one in ten thousand. What's more, the location and distance here are just right."
Zuo Si rejected the soldiers' proposal to retreat without hesitation.
Because the place where he was standing was just in the center, enough to cover most of the battle area.
According to the LV5 level of the planeswalker, it is possible to absorb most of the magic energy and life energy generated by killing monsters.
Nothing can make Zuo Si happier than watching the mana pool value keep jumping and rising.
In order to minimize the casualties of the defenders, and also to deter the red dragon that is constantly circling overhead, more spell cards should be placed in the "graveyard".
He directly started the "spell bombing" mode towards the enemies swarming under the city wall.
In less than half a minute, various control and group killing spells such as [Grease], [Spider Web], [Fireball], [Stinking Cloud], [Burning Hands], [Colorful Jet], and [Scorching Ray] fell on the monsters' heads like raindrops.
The originally fierce attack suddenly came to a halt.
After all, once the ladder is covered with the grease produced by [Grease Magic], let alone climbing up the city wall, even people who are halfway up will fall down due to slipping hands and feet.
As for the second-ring [Spider Web Technique] and the third-ring [Stinking Cloud Technique], there is no need to mention it.
Often, as long as it is spread out under the city wall, it will immediately create an insurmountable restricted area.
The sticky spider web will tightly entangle the target, while the stinking cloud will make people who smell it vomit continuously, and in serious cases, they will faint on the spot.
The soldiers on the city wall could even calmly kill the incapacitated monsters by shooting, throwing stones and wood.
The magical energy and life energy emitted by these monsters after being killed were absorbed by Zuo Si using the increasingly powerful "spark" power, forming a perfect closed loop.
If he didn't have a limited number of magic cards on hand, he could even continue until the last monster died.
Not only that!
While using the cards frantically, Zuo Si did not forget to raise his head and look at Beltogas with a provocative look.
If this mature male red dragon dared to lower its altitude or swoop down to attack.
Then he will immediately activate his trump card [Spell Disaster], and then summon [Large Stone Elemental] and [Large Ferocious Leopard] to surround and kill this "scapegoat" in front of everyone.
But unfortunately, when Beltogas saw Zuo Si release so many spells in such a short time, he immediately became extremely alert.
Not only did he not plan to lower the altitude, but he also gave up his previous plan to use dragon breath to burn the flank walls.
He is not like Wilmes, a "rookie" who has just reached adulthood and has not yet experienced how powerful and terrifying high-level spellcasters are.
While traveling in the area around Waterdeep in the north, Beltogas was once ambushed by a level 15 wizard.
If he had not run fast, he would have been ripped open and turned into various precious materials such as dragon blood, dragon skin, dragon bones, etc.
Maybe even the "big treasure" in the lower body will have to be cut off to extract the active genetic material inside and use it to create a half-dragon creature with red dragon blood.
From then on, whenever he met a spellcaster, Beltogas would always be more cautious.
Judging from the fact that he had just released the spell without chanting any incantation or making any casting movements, he concluded that Zuo Si had used a super magic technique - instant spell casting.
This technique allows the caster to cast a prepared spell at the enemy in an instant, leaving the opponent no chance to dodge or counterattack.
As for the cost, it is naturally necessary to use more advanced spell slots to memorize the original low-level spells.
Simply put, it is "upgrading the ring".
Take the third-ring [Fireball] as an example.
Without using any metamagic tricks, only a third-level spell slot is required to accomplish the memorization.
A wizard with a seven-ring spell must be at least level 13.
What's more, the instantaneous three-level spells that Zuo Si just released were not just one or two, but at least five or six.
In Beltogas's eyes, this was at least a high-level wizard of LV15 or even LV17.
Maybe he even masters eight or nine rings of magic.
Coupled with Zuo Si's provocative look, he felt even more that this might be a trap set for him, so he did not dare to act rashly.
In fact, the person who was fooled by Zuo Si's Traveling Mage Card System was not only Beltogas, but also the owner of the only mage tower in Mylatma.
The old wizard, whose half body was about to be buried in the ground, was so shocked that he was speechless and could not believe what he saw.
"Teacher...Teacher. That guy used a super-magic technique—instant spell casting, right?" an apprentice asked stutteringly.
The old wizard nodded subconsciously: "That's right. I can't believe that he actually used high-level spell slots to memorize three-level magic such as [Fireball] and [Smelly Cloud]."
"A wizard of at least level 15! No wonder he swore that he could solve this crisis. But doesn't he look a little too young? Could he be a metal dragon from the good camp, or some other immortal race?"
Another assistant expressed his guess.
For most humans, when they are around ten years old, it is difficult to become a powerful spellcaster, or even to have the patience to learn complex and dangerous magical knowledge.
Generally speaking, academies and wizard towers usually only recruit boys and girls between the ages of twelve and fourteen who are relatively precocious and calm.
"Maybe. It seems that after the crisis is resolved, I should find a chance to talk to him in private. It would be great if I could gain some knowledge, spells and magic items through the transaction." The old wizard's eyes flashed with strong desire.
In his opinion, since Zuo Si possessed such a high spellcasting level and mastered advanced super-magic skills such as "instant spell casting", he must have come from a region where various magics were extremely developed.
Maybe there is a powerful organization of spellcasters behind him.
After all, in the eyes of most spellcasters in Faerun, casting spells without chanting spells or making casting movements is something that can only be achieved through super magic skills - instant spell casting.
But no one knew that what Zuo Si had just used was not the magic network spellcasting system at all, and he had never relied on the mage profession, which he had just acquired.
In his mind, the card system of the Planeswalker is much more powerful than the mage profession that relies heavily on the magic network.
The latter is largely just a tool for learning the principles of magic and making cards.
When Zuo Si thought about the fact that in the future he would be able to take out four Fireball cards with [Spell Power] + [Spell Extreme] and slam them into the enemy's face during a battle, directly cremating the enemy and his body on the spot until only ashes were left, his heart was filled with anticipation.
Just like that, with the red dragon Beltogas not daring to easily participate in the attack, the monsters' first wave of exploratory attacks lasted less than an hour and a half.
Over two thousand goblins died in the battle.
Altogether, more than a thousand orcs, gnolls, and bugbears died.
On the defensive side, less than sixty people were killed in the battle, and seven or eight of them were extremely unlucky and died from the "Brownian motion stones" thrown by the opposite side's catapults.
The rest were mostly just injured.
Because there are enough priests, everything will be fine after a little treatment.
Under the comprehensive suppression of solid city walls and magic and divine arts, Myratma won an unquestionable and complete victory.
In particular, the civilians who were temporarily recruited also learned valuable experience through this battle, their psychological qualities were trained and strengthened, and they were no longer afraid of the huge number of the enemy.
