Chapter 843: The Battle of the Floating City (2)

"I'm sorry, father. I don't know exactly what happened to the oriole, and I haven't received any information recently. But please rest assured, I will definitely make up for my mistakes and promise that there will be no more mistakes. .”

Seeing that the anger in Telamante's eyes was getting hotter and hotter, Ruivalan hurriedly stepped forward and bowed deeply, voluntarily admitting his mistake. He is very clear that any sophistry at such a time can only be counterproductive. Instead of waiting for his old opponent to fall into trouble, it is better for the bachelor to stand up and take responsibility. Anyway, at most it will be cut some rights.

"Make it up?" Telamante stared at his eldest son with a sullen face, and after half a minute, he snorted softly. "Okay, I'll give you a chance. Go ahead and finish what needs to be done before the winner is decided. If you make even the slightest mistake, don't blame me for being rude." After speaking, he waved his hand, Rui Valan was directly expelled from the room.

For any spellcaster, such forced teleportation can be called a naked humiliation, just like ordinary people walking into a house and being beaten out with a stick by the owner inside.

There is no doubt that the high city is out of anger now, and it doesn't pay attention to the extremely ugly facial expression of the eldest son.

Another ghost prince, Yada, frowned subconsciously after witnessing the humiliation of his allies, followed by Wei Wei, who bowed to his father, and then cast a spell and disappeared in place. Obviously, he intends to assist his brother to complete the task.

After the two Shar church leaders left, the corners of Huojiehana's mouth turned up slightly, revealing a sarcasm smile, and then he came to the Supreme City Lord and lowered his voice, "Your Excellency, I have advised you not to take it lightly." Fighting against a person with the power to kill gods, Henry Angomey is far from being as simple as it seems on the surface. Especially the attitude shown by the wizard king Ravok is very thought-provoking. Maybe you should reconsider your position. A settlement was reached before the situation escalated further."

"Very pertinent suggestion, but unfortunately it's too late." Telamante shook his head helplessly, then pointed to the translucent force field that enveloped Olympus Cheng. "Didn't you see that? The opponent is fully prepared for this war, from hitting our flying platform at the beginning to a whole set of powerful magic locks. Before the winner is really determined, he will definitely not Will let it go."

It has to be said that the Grand Arcanist is worthy of being a Grand Arcanist, and he made an accurate prediction of Henry's character before even meeting him.

He can feel under various targeted measures. The hidden strong ambition is a way of thinking that desperately wants to solve the trouble once and for all regardless of the cost, and like all successful spellcasters in Faerun Continent, they have a stubborn, extreme, and authoritarian personality, just like when they were young. Own.

"You mean...we need to win this war first before we can get a chance to negotiate?" Huojiehana asked cautiously.

As the second-in-command of the entire City of Shadows, he knew best that although Telamante was respectful to the goddess Shar on the surface, it was only a superficial effort, and he was secretly looking for a way to get out of the other party's control.

In fact. The reason why Shaer was allowed to preach here in the City of Shadows was to get rid of the dependence on the magic net, but the dependence on the magic net was indeed broken. But with that came the reliance on the Shadow Magic Web.

In the shadow plane dominated by negative energy, almost all spellcasters will inevitably prefer the latter. After all, the shadow magic net greatly improves the power of shadow magic, enchantment, necromancy, and illusion spells.

Due to the trap set by Shar, the deeper the caster studies the shadow magic net, the farther and farther the connection with the normal magic net will be. Coupled with the natural concealment, it eventually led to the fact that more than half of the shadow magic nets in the entire Ghost City The mage was controlled unconsciously.

If the Lost Lady disconnects them from the Shadow Magic Web now, the entire Floating Void City will lose more than half of its combat power in an instant. How can anyone dare to turn his face rashly under such circumstances.

Obviously, the City of Shadows was kidnapped by Shar and brought into his camp under unavoidable circumstances. The only thing that can be done at present is to prevent the further expansion of the Church's power and keep the leadership in the hands of Telamante.

One of the main reasons why Huojiehana was able to achieve today's status is that he deeply understood this hidden confrontation, and took the initiative to stand up and undertake the task of the target. Now everyone in the city knows that he is an enemy with the religious leader Ruivalan, so that the supreme city lord can maintain a relatively neutral attitude to balance power.

Telamante glanced at the ambitious sons. Then a strange smile appeared on his face: "That's right. According to the experience summed up in the Netheril era, in the confrontation between floating city and floating city, there is no real winner. I don't want to waste my life In an endless war, so after gaining a certain advantage, it is a wise choice to shake hands and make peace. Of course. It would be better if we can form an alliance, knowing that we need a strong one in our return plan. And allies who share the same values."

"Father, since you have already planned to form an alliance, why did you let Ruivalan and Yada leave? Although I don't know their plan, it must have something to do with kidnapping and threats." Among the twelve ghost princes, the most Smart Branas was the first to stand up and ask.

"It's very simple. As I said just now, what the City of Shadows needs is a strong ally. If you can't even protect your family, it's not worthy of being called strong at all. You can understand it as a test. I need to understand this Does the young man named Henry Angomey have the qualifications to be our ally? Remember, we need to end the confrontation as victors, otherwise it will be difficult to take the initiative in the next negotiations." After finishing speaking, Terra Mante waved to his sons, indicating that they could all leave.

All the ghost princes saluted with one hand on their chests, and then cast teleportation magic one after another and disappeared without a trace. It is foreseeable that once these ten ghost princes join the attack sequence, they will definitely cause Henry a lot of trouble. After all, so many legendary spellcasters gather together, even if the incarnation of the goddess of magic comes, he will feel a headache.

"Your Excellency, are you trying to suppress the power of the church?" After confirming that the ghost princes had left, Huojiehana couldn't help asking immediately.

Telamante glanced at the serious expression on his deputy's face. He nodded lightly: "Yes, during the recent period, Rui Valan has obviously crossed the line. Not only does he want to gain more rights, but he is also spying on the position of the supreme city lord. There is no doubt that he has been once again Bewitching. In my opinion, this confrontation may be an opportunity. If Henry Angomey can kill gods as rumored, then we can use his power to get out of control. After all, the enemy of an enemy is a friend."

"But isn't it too obvious to do so? I'm a little worried that it will anger the goddess." Huojiehana reminded rather worriedly.

You must know that Shar is not a kind person. In several power struggles, Telamante was basically forced to compromise. As the master of the entire floating city, he had too many issues to consider, so he had to temporarily succumb to the divine power.

Just when the supreme city lord was about to say something, a dazzling glare suddenly burst out of the window, and the mighty army of golems just entered the defensive circle of Olympus City, standing in front of them one by one. The outer coil instantly released a large purple arc, and hundreds of metal golems lost control within a few seconds, standing still and swinging non-stop. Some even produced a large number of electric sparks.

Such a spectacle immediately aroused Telamante's strong interest. He didn't care about discussing the issue of suppressing theocracy, and immediately came to the window. He muttered to himself: "What is that?!! An electric ring made by magic? No... no... I didn't feel any energy transmission from the magic net... What a genius idea, it's so amazing! Let more than 80% of our golems lose control."

"Your Excellency, now is not the time to praise your opponent. You'd better think of a way, otherwise our ground troops won't be able to attack at all."

Huojiehana shook his head helplessly, interrupting Telamante's interest in research. Although he is also very interested in those pillars that don't stop, he hasn't forgotten his responsibility as an assistant.

"Immediately send the mage group and two teams of soldiers to see what the working principle of those metal pillars is. Don't panic. The weirder the enemy's response, the more we have to calm down. This war will not be resolved in a short while. Win or lose."

When Telamante spoke, his eyes never left the coil that was being discharged. As a grand arcanist, his curiosity about unknown things is not inferior to that of young people, especially this kind of technology that can be widely used in protection, it is almost like grabbing it immediately and using it in the city of ghosts.

"Understood! I'll make arrangements now." Huojiehana bowed, turned and left the top floor of the tower.

After a few minutes. Two hundred soldiers in black armor and holding swords and shields set off under the lead of a ghost prince. Don't underestimate these humble guys, they are not ordinary people, even the worst ones have at least five warrior levels and one spellcasting level, completely crushing the elites of all human nations on the ground.

The ancient Netherese civilization worshiped black. The City of Shadows has inherited this very well, whether it is soldiers, commanders, mages, or priests. They all wore black burqas, and if conditions allowed, they would even paint the surface of their armor black. Only those with noble status were allowed to have their own unique marks tattooed on them.

The ghost prince who leads the team this time is Coralie Bonas. There is a gold star embroidered on a blue background on his cloak, which looks particularly conspicuous in the dark. The bloody machete in his hand is not ordinary at first glance. .

Obviously, Huojiehana sent this neutral prince to test the reality of Olympus City first. If he encounters strong resistance, he will be extra careful next, and if nothing happens, he will immediately send out more troops and mage groups.

Due to the interference of the magic lock, it is basically difficult for long-range attacks to have any effect, unless all the magic above level 7 is used, then it is bound to extract more energy from the magic net. Once the limit is exceeded, it is likely to cause ghosts The city fell from the sky. (to be continued ~^~)
