Chapter 385 Super-level Spells
High in the sky, Rhodes rode his own red dragon and covered his chest.
Blood dripped from the wound on his chest, inflicted by Gareth.
Clearly that sword had pierced through two dragons and several Githyanki dragon knights, but the final force still broke through his magic shield and stabbed him to death.
Fortunately, the dragon didn't hit the heart. Even the mages of the Githyanki have very strong physiques, so Rydes was injured but not killed, and was able to escape on the red dragon.
Rydes is the general of the Githyanki, and he is leading this astral invasion.
If he runs away, the war will be lost.
But Redes didn't think it was his fault, and I guess the other Githyanki were the same.
This was clearly not the plan.
The original plan was that after appearing, they would just have to fight with some humans, and then they would be able to gain a huge kingdom as their territory.
The Githyanki could then begin to multiply and take over the plane.
Reids is very familiar with this kind of work and does it this way every day.
Once the Githyanki population increases, they begin to rule over this plane, plundering all resources to the Astral Plane, which become nutrients for the Githyanki.
The script should be like this, and the evil dragon goddess clearly promised that it would be like this.
They have worked together many times, and Reids doesn't think that the goddess will deceive him.
But the script went off track right at the beginning.
The white humans were very strong, beyond their expectations, which caused the Githyanki to suffer a lot of losses. But up to here, the losses were still acceptable. As long as they had the territory, they could recover quickly.
But everything that happened next began to become incredible and unreasonable.
An entire kingdom of land just flew away, and the place left behind turned into the sea.
The city disappeared, and all the supplies in the city ran away with it, and their territory was gone.
The Dragon Goddess seemed to have not expected this situation to happen, and made them wait for several days before giving new instructions, asking Redes to take the Githyanki people overseas to find the dragons of this world.
I thought I would be able to get strong support, but it turns out that the dragons in this world are in an even worse situation than the Githyanki, and almost every dragon is a little malnourished.
Next, they merged these dragons and established a base overseas... Everything was going well at first, and then they encountered the terrifying headless knight.
Compared to this guy, the dragon knight they were so proud of was really like a child.
Without any preparation, the astral red dragon and countless Githyanki were chopped to pieces by this headless knight.
The overseas dragon tribe, which had originally agreed to cooperate, immediately became fence-sitters and began to waver after seeing the terrifying power of the headless knight.
If he didn't need the help of these dragons, Reids almost ordered the killing of all overseas dragons and seized their Dragon Island.
After much thought, I realize that I still have to rely on myself in the end.
Reids had to patiently inquire about the origins of the Headless Horseman. He not only had to organize his people to settle overseas, but also had to deal with the neighbors around them.
This is simply a shame, the Githyanki are conquerors in other planes, and have never tried to be so humble. But there is no way, Rydes is a legendary wizard, he has enough wisdom to judge the situation, and the current situation is to be patient temporarily.
Later, when the Githyanki gained a foothold, Rydes also found his first ally - the Isi Ray.
This monster with demon blood hit it off with Redes. Demons love chaotic killings the most, and the Githyanki urgently need this deep-sea monster to help them expand their power on the ocean.
Everything started to get back on track, and Rydes even developed a strategy specifically targeting the Headless Horseman.
It's easy to target this reckless man.
The fact was just as he thought, the departure of the Lord of the Dragon Tomb gave them an opportunity.
Rydes felt that his plan was perfect, and all he had to do was execute it well. However, he didn't expect to receive the news of the triumph, but instead the furious Headless Horseman.
Even if the tactics fail, Reids is not without a backup plan. He has several tactics against the headless knight.
But this time, Rhodes saw the complete form of Gareth.
When fighting with Canggu, 90% of Gareth's attention was focused on protecting his wife. For Canggu's safety, Gareth, the dragon knight, would subconsciously use himself as a shield.
This time, Gareth was not riding his wife, but a giant eight-legged horse.
This is a real mount, a comrade-in-arms, a tool, and one that Gareth doesn’t need to be distracted by.
Gareth, who was fully focused on the battlefield, had completely changed into a different person. This headless guy seemed to have hundreds of eyes. No matter where the attack came from, he could accurately make the best judgment.
Several times he was seen being engulfed by a barrage of fireballs, but Gareth rushed out of the smoke as if nothing had happened, raising his hand and killing a dozen Githyanki with a single blow.
This headless knight can find the weakest point in a saturation attack in an instant, and then use his long sword to cut a passage. Even the ranger's reaction is not as fast as his.
And when Gareth launched the charge, the chain knife in his hand turned into the scythe of death, cutting a large area with one stroke.
With one strike of the sword, not only would the body be split in half, but even the soul would be burned to ashes by the purple-black flames.
No tactics worked. The Githyanki on the ground were unable to form a formation, and hundreds of them were killed by Gareth's random charge.
Reids tried every means to stop Gareth and prepared to use the dragon's air advantage to launch an aerial attack. However, before he could make a move, a strong wind blew in the sky and endless dark clouds appeared, covering the star red dragons.
Under the influence of the corrosive force, the red dragon scales began to smoke and let out wails.
Such a huge cloud of corruption could not be unleashed by one person. Rhodes hurriedly tried to find the enemy, and saw five ghost ships floating on the sea.
A large number of ghosts were circling and dancing on the sails, and they worked together to cast this spell with a very wide range.
The arrival of Ego's Night Pirates was the last stone that broke the Githyanki's heart.
Redes knew that the game was over, and ordered a retreat without hesitation, leaving tens of thousands of Githyanki behind to cover their retreat. He led all the Isi Manta Knights and Dragon Knights away.
When he had to lower his altitude to give orders, Gareth leapt high up on his eight-legged giant horse and swung the long sword in his hand at him.
This blow almost took Reeds' life.
Now the Githyanki are badly weakened, with only more than 10,000 Isi Manta Knights and only twenty-two astral red dragons left.
It's only been a few days and we've suffered such a heavy blow. It's all because all the preparations were in the wrong direction.
It seemed as if someone was plucking the strings of fate, playing a dirge for the Githyanki.
Just when Reids thought that he had become extremely unlucky and that things couldn't get any worse than now, a tiny figure blocked their way.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Before he could see the person clearly, a bright golden light shone from the person's body, which made Reids' eyes ache and he could not help but close his eyes.
The red dragon slowed down, looked at the person coming vigilantly, and breathed out flames from its mouth.
And Reids sensed the other party's perception, and he was locking onto him tightly.
As a legendary wizard, Reids knew very well what this meant. If he made any rash moves, the other party would launch a powerful spell attack on him.
But, the locking distance is so far?
The general range of spells is 40 to 50 meters. A powerful wizard or blood warlock can use some methods to increase this range, up to about 100 meters. So it is effective against air-to-ground. Even if it is out of range, most spells can still fall to the ground, but the accuracy is not good.
But now, Reids was at least 500 meters away from this man, and the other party's perception range was too outrageous. Could he cast a spell from 500 meters away?
It's impossible, absolutely impossible. Even a bow and arrow may not be able to hit the target from such a long distance.
Unfortunately, the sense of crisis still loomed over Reids, making him dare not move.
On the other side, Amberxiu was sitting on the golden throne, already locking onto Reids from a distance.
If the normal magician's casting ability is ten, then the threshold for a legendary magician is at least one hundred. Amberxiu, this fake wizard, originally had only eighty, but with the blessing of the Golden Throne, his casting ability can reach five or six hundred. If he didn't feel sorry for the gold, it could be even stronger.
The numbers are just general terms and cannot clearly distinguish between strong and weak combat capabilities, but at least they can give Amberxiu a strong advantage. His casting distance is beyond logic, and he can fire several consecutive fireballs from hundreds of meters away.
This white-haired Githyanki is flying in the front. He should be the leader of this group of toads. It's just bad luck for them that they are the first batch of enemies to appear, which is just right for them to make a name for themselves.
This magic mirror is filming right now, and other magic mirror users should also be watching the live broadcast simultaneously.
For the sake of business, this play cannot be messed up.
Therefore, Amberxiu changed his usual friendly appearance and said to the group of Githyanki majestically: "Invaders from the Star Plane, I didn't expect you to join in the fun and bring a large army to kill me. This is too grand."
Rydes was confused. What was this man talking about?
Looking closer, Reids saw Ambershu's skull.
A lich? Why was he stopping them? Lions was confused for a long time until he saw the palm-sized island on the ground.
No way, he doesn't think the Githyanki are going to take over his territory. Does he really think they want all the garbage?
There is only enough space for the Githyanki to stand and squeeze in. Who would want to go there?
This time, the dragon really is in trouble and is being bullied by dogs. When have the Githyanki people ever suffered such injustice? How dare a mere lich cause trouble here?
Reids observed again and again, confirming that there were no ambushes nearby, and that there was only a hint of the undead on the island. He then said to Amber Xiu, "What an idiot! I hate undead the most, and you just bumped into me!"
Just vent it out!
Just as Reides was about to order the lich to be torn to pieces, he heard Amber say, "Wait, do you really want to be my enemy? I have always been the one to stir up trouble, and I have always only defended myself when I had no choice."
Rydes always felt that something was wrong, but was this lich showing weakness?
It was clearly him who jumped out to provoke, and he could have just hidden himself, but now he's admitting defeat?
Rydes was too lazy to say anything more and gave the order: "Tear up his bones and burn his island!"
The red dragons howled and rushed over. Amber sighed loudly for everyone to hear: "You forced me to do this."
Amber raised his right hand, and the sky suddenly lit up.
When Reids looked up, he was so frightened that his right hand trembled and the staff that depended on him fell.
What in God’s name is this? Hundreds of meteors rain down from the sky, engulfing all the githyanki.
The first super-level spell that Amberxiu had prepared for a long time - Hundred Times Meteor Explosion!
