Chapter 324 – Lesser Forbidden Spell – Sky Falls and Earth Rends (2/2)
Boom! As expected, the second Fatty appeared, the surrounding undead soldiers immediately turned to him and cast a slew of attacks.
“In!” A diagram suddenly flew and spun above Fatty’s head, enlarging until it covered both him and Chalete inside.
“Raaarghhh!” Chalete roared in shock and rage. He slapped his mount, spurring it to attack the diagram with ferocity.
“Go!” Temporarily containing Chalete in the Elemental Sword Diagram, Fatty didn’t dare to dawdle a second longer. In a flash, he disappeared with Earthwalk and reappeared inside the base.
The Elemental Sword Diagram could be fixed when used as a formation or be carried along, just like how Wu Junxiao’s mark of consciousness kidnapped the God-tier Undying Soul last time. However, the strength of both sides needed to be taken into account. If the imprisoned was more powerful than the controller of the diagram, not only would it not move, but it also would be damaged by the opponent. Therefore, it was generally safer to be fixed at a place.
“Chop chop!” Fatty rushed to the higher-ups and shook the diagram, flinging out the now-dizzy Chalete.
“This, the boss?! Attack!” Helper ASliverofSmoke and XuanYuanSword were actually the fastest to react. Two sword lights shot towards Chalete.
Bang! Bang! Chalete was also quick to control his mount to retreat several steps, remaining unharmed.
At this moment, the rest of the defensive players had regained their wits. Qian Xiaoqian waved her arm and a lightning bolt struck Chalete, briefly paralyzing him. The others quickly surrounded him, and then all sorts of skills were madly thrown.
“Raarghhh!” A booming roar burst out from Chalete, followed by black light that shot out and quickly formed a pitch-black layer of armor on his body. This black armor wasn’t at all offensive, but its defense was perverse. All attacks were negated.
“Forbidden magic, forbidden magic again!” Qi Luoyu gritted her teeth for the umpteenth time. Mages were practically useless when this forbidden magic was brought into play.
“It’s fine, it’s lucky this isn’t forbidden space magic, otherwise this battle is as good as lost,” Qian Xiaoqian consoled Qi Luoyu.
This forbidden magic was only a buff to grant a target immunity from certain levels of magic attacks. On the other hand, forbidden space magic could form a complete space capable of including a moving army, which alone could allow just several thousands of cavalry to destroy this base.
“Look! The enemy army is moving!”
After their boss was ‘bossnapped’, the undead army was plunged into confusion. Several undead generals with higher intelligence quickly took charge of the army and stormed forward, urgent to flatten the base and rescue their leader.
“Let them in! Everyone, withdraw to guard the administration hall, don’t leave the area of 100 meters around!” Seeing the opponent marching as a whole, Qi Luoyu was put at ease and revealed a smile.
All of the remaining players moved towards the administration hall. There was actually only around a thousand left. Despite the respawn players constantly returning, it was like a drop in the bucket, especially when there were still cavalry and other undead soldiers slaughtering inside the base.
As the players continued to fall, the human defense around the hall gradually shrank. Some attacks started to land on the hall, slowly sapping away its durability.
“More, a little more…” Qi Luoyu muttered, her face abnormally red from excitement and anxiety.
At last, the undead army entered the base, and their commander Chalete was finally able to avenge the humiliation of being captured with the aid of his underlings. With a swing of his spear, the grand army headed towards the last standing building.
Arrows soared across the sky and rained onto the administration hall and the players around it. The undead mage troops were even stronger, casting purely undead magic, sending countless bone spears, swords and even skeletal beasts at the hall. Fatty could hear the creaking noises. If no measures were to be taken, he estimated the hall would completely crumble in a matter of minutes.
“Where’s your AoE magic?” Fatty couldn’t help but ask Qian Xiaoqian.
“Wait for it.” Qian Xiaoqian was also nervous in the face of such a risky situation.
“Finally got ‘em all.” Standing on the administration hall, Qi Luoyu heaved a sigh of relief and took out an object from her inventory.
It was an earth-yellow scroll with complex magical patterns from which a powerful fluctuating aura could be felt. While the scroll had yet to show off its power, the undead army could already felt an imminent threat.
Chalete pointed his spear. Instantly, countless attacks whizzed towards Qi Luoyu. With a faint smile, Qi Luoyu tore the scroll and threw it out.
“Lesser Forbidden Spell – Sky Falls and Earth Rends.”
Behind her, over a dozen mages also ignored the incoming attacks and chanted in unison.
Whoosh! A dirt-yellow light flew out from the torn scroll and enveloped all of the players. Upon touching this light, the attacks from the undead army seemed like hitting a wall with ‘bang’ sounds before being dispersed.
Rumble…! The earth quaked and violently winds kicked up. The air tightened and churned like water waves, while long cracks over ten meters wide ruptured out from the land. Many undead soldiers were caught off guard and fell right into the cracks.
In the sky, numerous flame-tailed meteors came crashing down. Meanwhile, long stone spikes popped up from the ground and impaled the undead soldiers.
All of a sudden, the space darkened, void of all light. The onlookers outside were horrified to see that a yellow fog had completely shrouded the base. They could no longer see what was happening inside.
