Struggle in the Steam Age

Chapter 508 Air Defense

"Damn it, why do the sahuayu people have an air force?" When he saw a mass of monsters flying towards the cliff, in order to avoid too many unnecessary casualties, Lawrence could only order the soldiers who were using artillery to stop firing on the mountain. Bringing weapons to temporarily gather the position for defense, while myself and Nora are ready to face the battle.

"Lend me your power temporarily, these are just some summoned creatures." Seeing a group of flying monsters from the evil camp, such as a group of vicious bats from purgatory, giant purgatory bees, vulture demons, and so on, the little puppet immediately Shouted to Lawrence, "You have some spells in your spell list that work really well for these guys."

"Summoned creatures? I understand." Lawrence said that he lent his power to Nora through the connection of the soul, because at this time he also saw that the creatures rushing now are not real, not imaginary The monsters cultivated by the sahuagin are just projections created by magical power.

Of course, for enemies, this kind of projection really exists, and if they are attacked by them, they will cause damage. Of course, the opponent's counterattack can also hurt these summoned creatures, but if the summoned creatures are killed, it is equivalent to being wiped out of a projection, and their bodies will not die, but will only be weak for a period of time.

But for ordinary people or even some low-level superhumans who mainly focus on physical attacks, this kind of summoning spell can be said to be very difficult. After all, fighting these guys is no different from fighting real monsters, but if you die in the battle, you are really dead, and after these monsters die, the opponent's spellcasters can still summon them as long as they have the law.

Therefore, when facing this kind of summoned creature, ordinary people and those physics professionals must either bite the bullet and face it head-on, or they can only choose the tactics of fighting and delaying the time until the summoning time passes. This is also an important reason why spellcasters are at the top of the chain of contempt for extraordinary professions in this world.

This is also the reason why Lawrence immediately brought together the soldiers who were deployed on the entire cliff when he saw these monsters just now, because if they were deployed in a scattered manner to obtain the best shooting range as they are now, those artillery teams would It is easy to be caught by these flying monsters to attack in the gap.

"It seems that research on air defense must be put on the agenda." Watching the little puppet fly towards the end of the mountain range at low altitude, Lawrence also trotted to a spare fortification near the cliff like the soldiers . Then he picked up his rifle and stared at the little doll, always ready to support Nora with his own firepower.

Although Lawrence and Nora's extraordinary levels have been raised at the same time, the current borrowed power will not take out all the power in Lawrence like before. In this case, instead of staying outside to cause chaos, it is more effective to hide in the bunker to provide support for the little doll.

"Closer, closer." Flying to the end of the cliff among a large pile of rocks, the little puppet looked at the sky and muttered. After obtaining Lawrence's spell list, she was confident that one could fight a hundred.

However, in order to prevent the rest of the enemies from being scattered and harassed after killing some of the enemies, Nora felt that she had to show absolute strength in the first round of attacks and eliminate as many monster projections as possible so that the opponents would have a strong impact on the forces deployed above the cliff. Misjudgment.

For spellcasters, monsters summoned through summoning can be recruited as long as they have mana. But even so, spellcasters will try their best to ensure that every projected monster can play its greatest role on the battlefield.

Under normal circumstances, if a large number of summoned monsters die, they will stop continuing to summon and instead observe the specific situation of the battlefield, in order to be able to adjust the content of the spell according to the different battlefield situations.

And as long as the casters of the sahuagin can stop, Lawrence and the others will be able to let the artillerymen continue to output firepower towards the enemy.

Although I don't know what the specific conspiracy of the Shahuayu people in this attack is, but looking at their crazy attack on this bay now, I know that as long as this bay is firmly guarded, no matter how they plan May those conspiracies finally come to fruition.

When the distance between those monsters and the top of the cliff was shortened to less than 50 meters, Nora finally found a chance to activate it herself.

As she flicked her fingers in the direction of those monsters, the silk threads floating in the air behind her immediately formed a mysterious circular magic circle in the air, and then one after another silver magic rays greeted that monster. A group of monsters are flying towards here.

Summoning spells are indeed powerful enough, but this kind of magic does not have an absolute advantage among all magic schools. This is the case because many spells have a strong counter to summoning magic. For example, [dispel magic] in the third-level magic is very restrained by these summoning magic.

Compared with other similar spells, [Dispel Magic] is a low-level spell with strong versatility and a relatively long range. The most important thing is a ranged attack. Therefore, this spell is naturally the most suitable spell when facing the projections of hordes of flying monsters in the sky, none of them.

And the situation on the battlefield was just as Nora expected: more than a dozen magic rays rushed into the group of monsters and exploded, and at the same time, the special magic power contained in them swayed in the air around the explosion point. A series of ripples.

As long as the flying creatures summoned by the sahuagin priests touched these ripples, the spell energy that made up their projected bodies began to fluctuate, and the spell structure began to collapse.

Some of the more powerful summons, similar to the projections of those lower plane monsters, are not bad, and they can withstand such a blow for a while longer. However, the slightly weaker summoned creature collapsed after encountering these ripples before it could even make a scream, and its own projection spell structure collapsed, and then its body turned into a ball of light and exploded clean.

For the ontology of those monster projections, this kind of targeted forceful dispersal will do more damage to them than being directly killed. The collapse of the spell structure that constitutes the projection will cause serious backlash in the spirit and soul of the monster itself, and it will take at least several months of cultivation before it can recover and respond to the call again.

The sahuagin priests were surprised when they saw this scene on the sea, because their divination results showed that there were not many enemies in this area. But the dozen or so spells that flew into the sky just now clearly indicated that there was a fatal problem with their divination, and there was probably a whole group of mages waiting for them on the cliff.

The reason for this mistake is also very simple, that is, as a golden-rank divine creature, Nora is immune to most prophecy-type magic. But the sahuagin didn't know her existence. Therefore, after seeing more than a dozen magic spells issued at the same time, the other party subconsciously believed that there was a powerful mage group stationed on the mountain now.

Therefore, after discovering this situation, the sahuagin priests immediately gave up their original idea of ​​rushing to the front to be tough. Instead, he began to bless the sahuagin warriors with defensive spells to make them climb up the cliff. Then, through [Oath from Another World], several flying monsters from the lower plane were summoned to try to attack the mountain.

This time Nala felt a little overwhelmed, because unlike the monster summoning technique just now, all the monsters summoned by [Oath from Another World] were monsters themselves. In this case, Nora obtained [Dispel Magic] from Lawrence's spell list, which naturally lost its effect. On the other hand, neither Nora nor Lawrence knew the targeted spell [Expulsion].
