Chapter 424 Advanced Scroll
If these two spells are allowed to continue, Brian will be burned to ashes in just a moment.
Of course he will not sit still and wait for death.
Faced with this spell that looked like a combination of "wound stimulation" and "blood burning", even though flames had begun to spread all over his body that could not be extinguished by conventional means, Brian's body was illuminated by the light of the fire. His red face still looked extremely calm and collected.
Although these two spells are obviously better than the real "wound stimulation" and "blood burning", the flames mainly contain negative energy, and even their own curse fire cannot destroy them. , but Brian, who calmed down, quickly found a way to deal with it.
He took out a magic scroll with a solemn expression, and then raised his staff slightly.
A dark blue energy shield emerged with the activation of the scroll recording the nine-ring spell, surrounding his body and the flames igniting around him.
Under the ripples of this energy shield, which were like dark blue water waves, the flames were quickly extinguished at a speed visible to the naked eye.
To be precise, it should be completely absorbed.
While Brian put out the flames, Saluk Lich was naturally not idle. After all, her purpose of quickly releasing spells through two scrolls was to delay Brian as much as possible. This releases more powerful spells.
As Brian put out the flames, her spell was ready.
Accompanied by waves of irrepressible negative energy, guided by the snake-shaped staff in the hands of Saluk Lich, it enveloped her skinny body, and her deep-set eyes were filled with dancing The pale soul fire suddenly extinguished, turning into two deep and dark holes.
In an instant, the deep cavity was replaced by two small white skeletons condensed by a pale energy at a speed visible to the naked eye, which looked extremely terrifying and terrifying.
——"Eye of the Dead!"
The moment the spell was condensed and formed, Saluk Lich suddenly pointed at the staff in her hand, and from her deep eye sockets, like a sharp arrow, it shot out Two thumb-thick pale beams of light hit Brian's dark blue energy shield in the blink of an eye.
Suffering from the lich's long-planned attack, Brian was naturally aware of it immediately.
However, what is surprising is that in the face of the lich's attack, he remained calm but a bit scary, even though the two pale beams of light that clearly looked extremely powerful had hit his energy shield. He still ignored it and prepared his spell calmly.
"What's going on?"
Saruq Lich immediately saw Brian's abnormality. She stared at him, frowned slightly, and immediately realized the problem. He couldn't help but cursed:
"Damn it, he actually has a rare spell scroll called energy absorption. No wonder he can absorb my blood burning technique and wound stimulation technique."
Energy absorption is a spell of the nine-ring energy evocation system. Its main function is to allow the caster to absorb and change magical energy.
And any form of magic can be absorbed by this spell, even priests' divine spells, spell scrolls and various supernatural and spell-like abilities.
Once the spell is absorbed, the operator can also activate it and return it to the caster. It is a spell that can only be mastered by spellcasters who specialize in the evocation school.
Although the release time of this spell is very long, if the scales of the ancient golden dragon can be used as materials to make a spell scroll, the effect will be different.
After realizing the seriousness of the problem, the Lich recited a few spells quickly.
Then, the pupils in her eye sockets, which looked like two small white skulls, suddenly flew out of the eye sockets shockingly, and then gradually grew larger at a speed visible to the naked eye, until they turned into two white skeleton warriors.
The two skeletons, which obviously look different, are surrounded by suffocating negative energy and emit a hazy light.
Each of them held magic blades that shone with cold luster, and charged towards Brian with unusually fast steps.
At the same time, as the two skeletons emerged, the deep eye sockets of the Saluk Lich also returned to their original state, and the pale soul fire jumped out again.
However, what emerged in the soul fire was a look of disappointment.
She originally thought that she could delay Brian's actions with two spell scrolls, and then use this self-created "Eye of the Dead" and the two skeleton warriors she had nourished with the power of her soul to take advantage of the opponent's confusion. , quickly end the battlefield battle.
Who would have thought that the other party actually possesses a scroll of energy absorption.
Not only did she absorb the effects of blood burning and wound stimulation in an instant, it was even able to suppress her own "Eye of the Dead", so much so that she had to release these two in advance. Skeleton warriors come to resist.
Just as the Lich was worried, when the two pale beams of light hit the dark blue energy shield surrounding Brian, all the terrible energy was absorbed completely. , making the entire protective shield shine with a pale luster.
This is also the fundamental reason why Brian is so calm.
Seeing that his defensive magic had successfully absorbed the opponent's spell, Brian no longer wasted any more time. He only saw his eyes slightly condensed, and with a thought, the protective shield that seemed to be bursting at any time suddenly absorbed the pale beam of light, and another All were released and shot in the direction of Saluk Lich again.
Seeing that this spell scroll had already exerted the corresponding effect, Brian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and was glad that he had spent a huge price to have someone help him make this special nine-ring spell scroll. What a wise choice.
Then, he did not dare to waste time and immediately launched his next attack. After all, in a battle of this level, even a second wasted may determine the outcome.
——"Nine-level spell: Ice Explosion!"
The moment the pale beam of light hit the two strange skeletons, Brian's spell was ready.
The whistling ice energy, under Brian's control, condensed into sharp icicles that emerged from the ground and turned into ice cages, trapping the skeleton in place.
——"Nine-ring spell: Meteor Explosion!"
Immediately afterwards, a series of roars sounded, and four meteors were shaped by Brian through arcane magic and forcibly condensed to the size of a head. Embedded with manic energy that seemed to explode uncontrollably at any moment, it dragged tail flames down from the sky and hit it hard.
A moment!
The energy storm composed of frost, fire and rich negative energy roared and enveloped the entire small room, completely submerging the two skeletons summoned by the Saluk Lich.
The air waves of the explosion reverberated in the room. For a time, even the space was slightly distorted due to the difference between the different attributes of magic. Countless ice crystals were wrapped in flames, scattered in all directions, and turned into pieces of burning snowflakes again, falling to the ground. , and melt and evaporate at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In this room where the elements seemed to be completely out of control, even Brian, as a spell caster, could not survive the disaster and had to consume arcane energy to build an energy protection barrier for himself in time. , to resist this roaring storm. At the same time, while secretly accumulating the spells he needed to prepare next, he looked warily at the billowing smoke in front of him that completely blocked his sight.
He knew that it was impossible to completely kill this Saluk Lich with these spells alone.
As expected.
As the smoke and dust dissipated, Brian suddenly discovered that at some point, the books in the entire room, even the mysterious orb of the wisdom barrier of the Saluk witch race, had all disappeared, and only one by one shone with a dark luster. Runes appeared one after another on the wall.
He instantly recognized through his magical knowledge that these were the most taboo and deadly necromantic runes.
When he subconsciously took two steps back, complex necromantic runes and emblems immediately flashed with dim red or gray light.
Brian then forced an instant death saving throw similar to a death spell.
Although he possesses the legendary grace Holy Flame Soul, which makes him immune to all death spells, magical death effects, energy absorption and any negative energy effects of the necromancy school, when Brian is exempted from the death spell , but was surprised to find that his legendary favor was temporarily weakened.
Although this weakening is temporary and recovery is only a matter of time, he cannot let his guard down at the moment. After all, he has been completely surrounded by various death spells.
If his legendary favor is really weakened by the death spell and temporarily loses its effect, then only death will greet him.
Brian did not dare to be careless. Faced with this situation, he almost without thinking took out another high-level magic scroll that he had prepared before leaving.
This is a scroll recording the nine-ring magic. After gathering the production materials, he asked the legendary priest of the Temple of Knowledge to help him copy it down, just in case.
What he didn’t expect was that it would come in handy so quickly.
"You can have other choices." At this moment, the thought of the golden dragon Paralandax sounded in Brian's mind, "I have noticed that the spatial confinement here has disappeared. In other words, as long as you You can leave this place at any time if you want."
"The spatial confinement has disappeared?" Brian was startled for a moment, then showed a look of surprise, and then smiled, "Obviously, this lich can't hold on any longer. The fight has already reached this level, why should I choose to escape? Pursuing the victory is the best choice."
The last trace of worry in his heart disappeared, and he completely let go of his hands and feet without hesitation. activated this precious scroll.
——"High-level radiant protection!"
With the activation of the magic scroll, Brian's whole body was instantly surrounded by a layer of spiritual energy that shimmered with divine light.
Immediately afterwards, all the death spells that tried to erode him were like the deep darkness being dispersed by the light in front of this layer of radiant protection, and faded away like the tide in an instant.
As Brian continued to change directions through flickering spells, all the surrounding undead runes were like stepped landmines, being dispersed by the radiant protective light, exploding and turning into runes. The fragments then become dull and useless.
Seeing this situation, the extremely terrifying face of the Saluk Lich hiding in the shadow suddenly became even more ugly. Apparently, he did not expect his two attacks. This difficult guy can be easily resolved with a spell scroll.
She gave Brian a vicious look, and after secretly making up her mind, she suddenly raised her withered arm and pointed the staff engraved with a snake-like pattern at him.
The moment the staff pointed at Brian, an unimaginable energy burst out.
Under the guidance of this terrifying energy, the space that Brian was in suddenly collapsed and a bottomless void crack appeared.
Then this crack seemed to open a barrier to protect negative energy, pouring out surging death energy like a waterfall, rushing towards Brian.
At this moment, Brian is in front of the crack in the void. Although he is surrounded by spiritual energy shining with divine light, he is still like a small tree swaying in the wind and rain. Under the erosion of violent energy, the spiritual energy is also moving at a speed visible to the naked eye. Became dull and dull.
Seeing Brian's experience, Saluk Lich's expression did not show any relief, but instead became more solemn.
Because as she activated the only void crack in the staff at all costs, even she had to endure the backlash caused by the powerful energy.
And what worries her the most is that such a fierce battle here may very well awaken those sleeping Saluk witches. If her tribe is lured here, she will be in big trouble.
This is also the fundamental reason why she has been unable to let go during the battle with Brian.
But now, she has no worries.
Because as the battle between the two intensified, the space that was once imprisoned was completely shattered as the cracks in the void opened.
It can be said that as long as the other party is willing, they can escape from this place at any time through teleportation spells.
But Brian didn't do that. Not only did he grit his teeth and endure the erosion of energy, he also wanted to kill her here.
With his own life in danger, Saluk Lich could not care so much.
At this moment, her only goal is to kill this arrogant intruder first.
As for worrying about waking up the sleeping tribesmen, she has long forgotten it.
Thinking of this, Saluk Lich moved his mind and once again injected his little remaining energy into the staff in his hand.
In an instant, the crack in the void behind Brian grew in size again with the injection of energy, and the energy poured out naturally became more violent.
In just a moment, Brian's advanced radiant protection was broken through without mercy.
Just when Saluk Lich thought he had a sure victory, he found to his disbelief that a huge pale golden dragon phantom emerged from behind Brian, and then a thick golden magic barrier Emerged, surrounding them, completely isolating them from the cracks in the void.
Immediately afterwards, the staff in the Lich's hand completely broke due to the overload of energy.
