Chapter 157 The Power of Witchcraft
Chapter 157
“There are so many people…”
At this moment, Lin En fully activated the Grey Eagle Armor. The energy patterns on the armor were flowing with a faint blue light, and his entire body was wrapped in thick and precise armor.
There was an energy helmet on his face, and data streams were constantly flashing on his goggles, accurately displaying the power fluctuations and energy reactions of all parties on the battlefield.
Inside the helmet, Lynn's vision was wide and clear, and various combat information scrolled rapidly.
Under his gaze, there were ten spies from the Star Hunter Society in front of him, each of them had a strong aura, and they stood on the frozen ground like ten towering icebergs.
The energy scan quickly determined their strength composition: five second-ring mages, three third-ring mages, and two fourth-ring mages.
Each of them was draped in a blue and white robe, hidden between the ice and snow and the vast sky and earth.
Lin En felt secretly solemn in his heart, this was not just a mob.
According to the wizard level, the second-ring wizard, the third-ring wizard, and the fourth-ring wizard correspond to the early, middle, and late stages of the first-level wizard.
In other words, the ten members of the Star Hunters were all powerful first-level wizards! On the other hand, Lynn, Martha, and Giroud were formal wizards, and the rest were apprentices and mechanical creations as assistants. The difference in combat power was obvious.
He turned his head and looked at Martha and Giroud beside him. Both of them were wearing their own exoskeleton armors.
Martha's mecha has a streamlined appearance, flexible joints, and is covered with thin armor, and its combat effectiveness is not inferior at all.
Giroud is calm and steady, with ancient runes engraved on the surface of his mecha, and he is ready for battle.
"You two, just do your best. Lord Youde will take action soon."
Martha and Giroud nodded slightly. Although they felt that their chances of winning were slim, the presence of the great wizard Yod gave them some confidence.
After Lin En encouraged his teammates, he hoped that his "blasphemer" aura could quickly attract the second-level wizard-level member of the Star Hunter Society.
Otherwise, they really wouldn't be able to hold on for long. After all, the combat power of the ten Star Hunters in front of them was indeed strong.
Thanks to the transformation of the alien world purification device, the environment of this world has long been transformed into a field that is more inclined towards the wizard world, and the power of the Star Hunter members has been suppressed to a certain extent.
However, even so, the opponent's hard power still overwhelmingly surpasses ours.
Lin En quickly analyzed the battle situation and finally came to a conclusion: they could temporarily hold on by relying on the witchcraft formation, but the longer it dragged on, the more likely they would lose.
Boom! At this moment, the members of the Star Hunters finally moved! One of the second-ring mages stepped out, and the blue-white star badge hanging on his chest suddenly lit up, as if connected to a node of some magic network.
A dazzling blue light burst out from the badge, as if it was absorbing energy from the ice and snow.
"Second level spell, Aganasa's fire breathing!"
The wizard chanted in a sharp voice, the fluctuation of magic power suddenly increased, and the star badge on his chest completed the analysis of the spell in an instant.
Then, a surging line of fire thirty feet long and five feet wide suddenly spurted out from his hands.
Like the roar of a fire dragon, the scorching flames burned on the ice and snow. The ice along the way instantly vaporized and white steam clouds rose.
The fire lines connected into a burning sky curtain, dragging out a chain of scorching flames, like an angry fire dragon roaring and shooting straight towards Lin En and others!
The flames roared in, the hot air waves twisted and rolled in the air, rolling up a scorching breath.
The fire line drew a scarlet track on the cold frozen earth. Wherever it passed, the snow instantly vaporized into billowing steam. The blazing flames spread across the earth, as if to completely ignite this frozen land.
Lynn's eyes narrowed, and the Grey Eagle Armor quickly activated its built-in reconnaissance module. The tactical screen on the energy helmet flashed with dense data streams, rapidly calculating the attack parameters of the fire line.
"Basic fire attack strength: 50 degrees, with a spreading property. Once it hits, it will cause a continuous burning effect."
At the level of a formal wizard, the "Heart of Flower Language" that he was so proud of during his apprenticeship stage was no longer of much use.
Even if it is used at this moment, this line of fire will directly penetrate the heart of the flower language and break its defense.
"In front of a formal wizard, apprentice witchcraft is completely meaningless..."
Lin En quickly determined the difference in combat power between the enemy and us, and with a chill in his heart, he activated the defense system of the Grey Eagle Armor without hesitation.
A dark blue energy shield emerged on the surface of the armor, and the energy flow quickly gathered, like a layer of ice crystal film covering the surface, emitting a faint but firm glow.
At the same time, he swung his hand back, and the wings of the Gray Eagle suddenly opened, with the power of the wind surging in the wings, and suddenly slapped the ground! The strong airflow swept up the ice and snow around, whistling like a whirlwind, trying to weaken the impact of the hot fire line.
"Disperse!"
Lynn growled and quickly moved sideways, avoiding the direct impact of the fire line like a phantom.
Martha and Giroud also responded quickly. Their exoskeletons ran at high speed and they quickly dispersed with the help of mechanical assistance.
Martha's streamlined mecha slid nimbly in the cold wind, while Giroud's heavy mecha was as steady as a mountain, steadily avoiding the main attack direction of the fire line.
Boom! Even though the three of them quickly distanced themselves, the blazing fire line still swept across, and the scorching flames raged violently on the frozen ground, setting off a monstrous heat wave.
Large pieces of ice and snow melted instantly, forming steaming mist. White smoke quickly spread all around, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of burning.
The ground was scorched red and hot, and the rocks were cracked and melted after being baked by the high temperature, like a ruin that had been burned by a furnace.
Fortunately, those third-level apprentices kept a certain distance from the mechanical creations. Otherwise, even if this attack could not wipe them out, it would at least reduce their number by half...
"The power of witchcraft is ultimately the explosion of energy factors driven by mental force..."
Lynn quickly sorted out the key points of knowledge in his mind.
The power of witchcraft is not simply the accumulation of energy, but the power of the law that leverages energy factors through mental force.
The wizarding world's definition of witchcraft is the deep interweaving of mental power and energy factors.
Although the way the gods' civilization casts spells is different from that of wizards, the laws of energy always have something in common.
"Zero-ring witchcraft has no witchcraft bonus, only elemental affinity bonus... Therefore, the relationship between the consumed mental power and the power of witchcraft is roughly one to one."
"And the first-level witchcraft has a 100% witchcraft bonus. Even if you don't take elemental affinity into account... the witchcraft that consumes 30 points of mental power has a power of at least 60 degrees."
"The spiritual power level of a second-level wizard is roughly the same as mine, and he can cast four spells of this level..."
Lin En quickly calculated the enemy's combat effectiveness and endurance, and gradually made a judgment in his mind.
Although it is impossible to fully determine the cultivation system of the gods' civilization, we can still get some reference by deducing it through the wizard's formula.
On the other hand, the second-ring mage’s sudden attack failed to work. He groaned and stepped back slightly. He was not in a hurry to continue attacking, as if he was adjusting his state.
Lin En narrowed his eyes and vaguely felt that his guess was roughly correct.
"Sure enough, the mental power consumption is quite severe... If there are a few more attacks of this level, he will soon be exhausted!"
However, there was more than one Star Hunter wizard! A total of ten wizards gathered here. Although the second-ring wizard stopped for the time being, the other wizards did not miss this perfect opportunity to attack! "Second-ring spell, Dagger Cloud!"
At this moment, another second-ring mage took action with a cold voice.
Suddenly, one rotating dagger after another appeared in the air, circling and gathering above the head like dense dark clouds. The tips of the daggers emitted cold light and were filled with murderous intent.
The cloud of daggers came towards Lin En and others with a sharp sound of breaking through the air, like a violent storm!
The dagger tore through the air as it spun, creating sparks through friction, and the blade flashed an eerie cold light, as if it was going to tear the earth into countless pieces!
This is a group spell, obviously intended to clear the area first and get rid of the apprentices and mechanical creations behind Lin En's three official wizards.
However, at this moment, Jilu snorted coldly, his eyes bursting with anger. It was obvious that the previous sneak attack by the opponent's second-ring mage had made him angry.
He took a sudden step forward, and the ground shook slightly due to his heavy steps.
He suddenly raised his arms, formed seals with his hands, and violent mechanical energy swept over like a tide.
"Level 1 witchcraft, mechanical giant!"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Boom! A dazzling light burst out from Giroud's body, and the power instantly enveloped the group of mechanical puppets behind him.
The mechanical puppets disintegrated rapidly as if they were summoned by something, and their parts gathered and reassembled like a tide, making sharp metal friction sounds and low roars.
In just a few seconds, a huge mechanical giant that was five meters tall stood in the center of the battlefield! It exuded a metallic luster, and was covered with hard armor. Its huge mechanical arm was like a steel hammer, and its shoulder armor was inlaid with an energy core, which was constantly flashing with crimson light.
This mechanical giant is like an iron-blooded god of war on the battlefield, emitting an indescribable sense of oppression.
Its scarlet eyes flashed with a cold luster, and its huge figure covered the sky. It spread its hands and hugged Lin En and others, allowing its back to withstand the dagger attacks one after another.
Lin En narrowed his eyes slightly, and the Grey Eagle Armor quickly scanned the attribute data of the mechanical giant. After a moment, a series of information popped up on the screen.
"Immune to fire, immune to water, immune to lightning..."
Lin En's heart was slightly shocked. This mechanical giant actually possessed such comprehensive elemental immunity!
For the Star Hunters' mages, magic immunity does not mean complete immunity to all damage, but it can greatly weaken the power of spells.
However, immune properties are not its only advantage.
The body of the mechanical giant is extremely heavy, and its steel-like structure gives it terrifying physical resistance and power output.
Although the daggers that were thrown before were powerful, they were just like tickling the mechanical giant.
When the effect of the Dagger Cloud ended, the mechanical giant suddenly stood up, strode forward, and locked onto the nearest member of the Star Hunter Society.
Boom! The mechanical giant suddenly punched out, the air suddenly exploded, a deafening roar accompanied by a terrifying shock wave, directly smashing a deep pit in the ground! Just one punch released an astonishing force of nearly forty degrees!
At that moment, the air around seemed to be shaking, dust was flying, and gravel was splashing.
Fortunately, the Star Hunter Club member reacted quickly, and his figure suddenly retreated, directly avoiding the attack.
Lynn's eyes were serious as he quickly analyzed the tactics in his mind.
Although the mechanical giant has amazing strength and excellent defense, its speed is relatively slow, which is its only shortcoming.
However, even so, this behemoth can still be called a "war machine" on the battlefield, and its power alone can intimidate the enemy.
At this time, Martha also took action. Unlike Giroud, she took the bold and aggressive path of a mechanical wizard.
Instead, she raised her hand, and small robots one after another surrounded her body.
"Level 1 witchcraft, Mechanical Heart!"
At this moment, she was chanting something and releasing witchcraft that matched her own tactical means, which could double the speed, attack, etc. of the small robots surrounding her.
Lin En saw the moves of his two teammates, and it was obvious that they were both real mechanical wizards.
Witchcraft and equipment complement each other, and can achieve the effect of one plus one being greater than two.
Boom! Martha and Giroud took action together with the third-level apprentices and mechanical puppets behind them.
The mechanical halo on them brought considerable benefits to the mechanical apprentices and mechanical puppets.
Obviously, the mechanical wizard is a team-oriented profession, not a one-man show.
It is entirely possible to rely on the witchcraft effects of advanced witchcraft to make those relatively weak apprentices and mechanical puppets become powerful.
However, Lin En is a mechanical wizard who changed his career halfway. He has no witchcraft at all, which matches the armor on his body.
Not to mention joining Martha and Giroud in the battle against those Star Hunter mages.
"However, although I don't have any matching witchcraft methods, I do have a sure-kill technique!"
Lin En looked at the Star Hunters in front of him. There were only five second-ring mages who were constantly attacking. All kinds of magic nets flashed by, and spells took shape in an instant and attacked with a bang.
Martha and Giroud led the mechanical army and continued to move forward, obviously gaining some advantage in the situation.
However, this is just an illusion.
Because among the ten mages of the Star Hunter Society, the powerful ones had no intention of taking action at all.
They had been watching the witchcraft formation beside them, trying to break out of it.
From the beginning to the end, only those second-ring mages were fighting against Martha, Giroud and others.
"Turn off the mask's hidden breath effect, turn off the armor's hidden breath effect... turn off the blue sky spirit's hidden breath effect..."
Lynn let out a long sigh and immediately disabled several hidden effects in one go.
Suddenly, a unique wave suddenly emanated from Lin En's body.
In an instant, the ten members of the Star Hunting Club all turned their attention.
This is true even for those members of the Star Hunting Society who have been trying to find a way to break the witchcraft formation.
Those ten eyes instantly locked onto Lin En, and they were filled with cold murderous intent! "Blasphemer!"
