Chapter 174 Targeted Destructive Witchcraft and Defeat
On the wizard's "ship" plane, the camp's alarm sounded like a death knell, echoing in the cold void.
Benjamin, Viola, and more than two hundred other logistics wizards floated quietly in the sky of the plane.
Their figures seemed insignificant in front of the vast crack in the sky.
As soon as the alarm sounded, they were recalled to the "ship" plane by the commanders.
This is the last retreat for the wizard expeditionary force and also their safest place.
Above, through the huge space crack that tore through the sky, the war taking place on the Flame Frost Plane was clearly visible, intuitively presented to all wizards.
The current battle situation has already shown a complete disadvantage for the expeditionary force.
The billions of lava giants and snow monsters gathered together, with their numbers and local combat advantages, are frantically squeezing the wizards' front line.
The three strategic volcanoes of the Lava Giant, which were powered by the magma of the earth veins, would spew out red light every once in a while, turning most of the battlefield into a thousand-degree purgatory.
The high heat makes the lava giants' strength increase dramatically, turning them into pure liquid lava, making them almost immune to physical attacks and most elemental witchcraft.
The surviving snow monsters took the opportunity to use ice magic to launch a charge on the other side, coordinating with the lava giant's offensive to split the wizard's cannon fodder.
Unlike the lava giants and snow monsters fighting on their own territory, they can continuously gather reinforcements from the entire plane, and their reserve forces number in the hundreds of millions, almost endless.
The "material reserves" carried by the wizards on the expedition are limited.
Their biochemical beasts and golem cannon fodder need to be airlifted, cultivated, and manufactured through alchemy. Once consumed in excess, they cannot be replenished in a short period of time and can only be transported remotely by plane workshops far away at the intersection.
That is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and distant water cannot quench immediate thirst.
At this time, the second round of war on the Flame Frost Plane had lasted for more than three days, and the corpses of both sides piled up on the battlefield had reached tens of millions!
The wizards' cannon fodder army had been visibly reduced by more than half in the tidal impact.
Although there were no elite enemy units participating in the battle, facing the sheer numerical pressure and the disadvantage of the strategic environment, even some unlucky combat wizards had suffered casualties.
The wizards' front line has been squeezed to the point of being overwhelmed by the torrent of lava giants and snow monsters, and the energy shield outside the camp is wailing under the continuous bombardment.
From time to time, there were areas flashing with unstable rune light, shaky and looking like they would be completely pierced at any time.
However, the wizards in the rear did not show much emotion even though they witnessed such a dangerous battle situation.
When Benjamin saw Viola's cold profile beside him and the calm and composed faces of other logistics wizards in the distance, he understood.
It seems that for these wizards who often participate in plane wars, the current disadvantages and even casualties are all within the calculations of senior commanders.
This is just the prelude to the plane war, a bigger storm is brewing.
Benjamin subconsciously glanced behind him. There, in the barren land of the wizard's "ship" plane, a huge gun barrel suddenly stretched out from the originally flat black scorched earth!
"It's really... exaggerated. This thing can't even be called a gun barrel..." Looking at the astonishing caliber of the gun barrel, Benjamin couldn't help but think in his heart.
That giant structure with a diameter of more than one kilometer completely exceeded all his knowledge of "gun barrels".
At this moment, energy was constantly accumulating inside this terrifying gun barrel.
Looking from deep within the muzzle, clusters of light with strange colors were constantly converging in the center of the barrel at an astonishing speed.
It was a marvelous sight formed by pure and vast elemental energy compressed to the extreme. Every time a strand of it gathered, it was accompanied by a subtle hum and distortion in the surrounding space, as if even the void felt uneasy in the face of this power.
This energy was so huge that Benjamin could clearly feel the power contained in it, which was enough to destroy the stars.
With the wizard's destructive power, if this was a purely offensive spell, it would probably be able to directly blow the Flame Frost Plane into pieces!
But doing so would completely destroy the plane itself, which is not the purpose of the Wizard Workshop invasion.
Therefore, the witchcraft contained here was not purely offensive witchcraft from the beginning, but targeted destructive witchcraft.
It sounds like these two kinds of witchcraft seem very similar, both containing the word "destruction", but in fact they are completely different.
Offensive sorcery is purely physical or elemental macro-destructive force, intended to destroy all visible matter and energy.
However, for destructive witchcraft, it is "precise" destruction. It is not an indiscriminate attack, but the deconstruction and elimination of specific targets.
At this moment, the witchcraft loaded into the barrel was precisely the witchcraft that had been carefully modulated to cause deep damage to the lava giant!
This is the latest achievement developed by Master Alvin from the Noren Workshop, who has been working day and night for less than ten days.
Both of them are studying Lava Giants, but Jemin's research topic is to discover the weaknesses of Lava Giants and develop restriction and technical methods based on this.
Master Alvin's research direction is even more profound. He focuses on carrying out targeted destruction on the most basic elemental structure of the lava giant!
Simply put, this is a targeted attack that breaks down the Lava Giant from its most basic particle structure.
It is able to penetrate the Lava Giant's living rock and molten plasma at the most microscopic level, disrupting its molecular structure and essentially annihilating it.
According to the information known to Jemin, in addition to the targeted destruction spell for lava giants developed by Master Alvin, another level five wizard who participated in the expedition also developed a targeted destruction spell for snow monsters.
However, this time, due to the lava giant Kalamos's careful planning, the snow monsters that came to participate in the attack also suffered heavy losses, so there is no need to target the snow monsters for the time being.
boom……
Before long, the twisted light balls in the barrel condensed to the extreme and suddenly turned into a terrifying energy beam with colorful light!
The beam of light tore through the void, making a deafening roar, and directly crossed the other side of the sky crack, bombarding the battlefield on the Flame Frost Plane.
The light beam expanded rapidly after leaving the muzzle, and when it passed through the space crack, it directly expanded to dozens of kilometers!
Its light instantly covered most of the battlefield, shrouding all living beings present in a strange and pure halo.
Deathly silence...
Faced with the sudden attack, the clamor in the center of the battlefield suddenly stopped.
However, an incredible scene happened!
In that grand and colorful beam of light, neither the wizard's cannon fodder army, nor the snow monsters of the Frost Dark Realm, even the fragile flowers and plants and hard rocks were harmed at all.
They still stand there, neither melting nor freezing, and the light seems to be just natural light with some brilliant colors.
But only those lava giants that were once majestic, turned into liquid in the high temperature, and swept across everything underwent drastic changes.
The moment they came into contact with the beam of light, their bodies began to tremble violently, and they subconsciously let out painful howls, which were filled with despair and indescribable fear!
Their molten lava bodies collapsed like sand castles, and the flowing molten lava blood boiled and decomposed, and was instantly decomposed in the beam of light.
They are not shattered or burned, but are directly disintegrated into the smallest particles from the material level, and eventually return to nothingness!
The lava giants, whose number had grown to nearly tens of millions, completely disappeared from the battlefield in just a few seconds!
This sudden and precise attack shocked all the indigenous people of the Flame Frost Plane who participated in the war. They had never seen such a strange and efficient way of annihilation.
But the wizards were not stunned!
"All combat wizards, charge forward! Cannon fodder troops, press forward! Annihilate the remaining enemies!" Before the aftermath of the beam bombardment dissipated, Augustine's order was clearly transmitted to the ears of every combat wizard through the magic network.
The battle wizards were well prepared. Like hunting eagles, they took advantage of the moment when the lava giant was "evaporated", the battlefield was in chaos, and the snow monsters were in a daze, and commanded the cannon fodder army to launch a full-scale attack.
The wizard cannon fodder army let out an earth-shattering roar. They mercilessly crushed the scorched earth left behind by the disappearance of the lava giant, aiming directly at the snow monster army that had not yet recovered from the shock.
All kinds of witchcraft poured down like rain, and the iron golems and flesh monsters charged forward recklessly.
The wizard's attack was like a torrent that swept away all the remaining lava giants and snow monsters on the battlefield at once!
Soon, the Aboriginal army suffered a complete defeat.
The huge army that was so powerful and high-spirited before has now completely lost its fighting spirit.
Whether it was the remnants of the lava giants or the army of snow monsters, they all left everything behind and fled in the direction they came from.
The original formation was gone, leaving only a disorganized and disorganized escape.
The two monster kings who were always irritable outside the battlefield, Kalamos and Agron, had no intention of blaming their subordinates even when they saw their troops were defeated.
They were all shocked by the terrifying destructive power of the beam just now.
It was neither fire nor ice, but it could make millions of lava giants disappear in an instant!
This has gone beyond their understanding of the inherent laws of this plane and is an incomprehensible force.
Their eyes were filled with solemnity and fear, and they dared not act rashly again.
On the "Ship" plane, Viola watched the scene happening on the Flame Frost plane through the crack in the sky. She watched millions of lava giants disappear in an instant, and watched the snow monster army be defeated under the iron hoof of the wizard. She couldn't help but smile.
She looked at Benjamin, whose eyes were also flashing with amazement, and said softly:
"Now, the war has entered its second phase."
