"Well, it should be almost done." This thought came to the mind of the strong man in the field of illithids. Its appearance was forced. The strength of Ryan's skeleton army has reached an appalling level, and it is impossible for it to continue to hide. It doesn't dare to hide anymore, so it must stand up and stop Ryan from continuing to expand the number of regiments, even though it doesn't know that it has missed the best opportunity.
But standing up to face Ryan and his legion does not mean that the strong people in the field of illithids are willing to surrender. It has still arranged some back-up moves, but the strong people in the field of illithids themselves also know very well that in Ryan Under the protection of the huge legion, it is difficult for these hidden methods to get close to the target without being noticed, so it must slowly lead Ryan into the trap he has set. Now after a battle, I believe it has been greatly Having lowered Ryan's vigilance, it's time to start this reversal plan.
Therefore, the strong man in the field of illithids slightly accelerated his retreat speed, and slowly adjusted his direction during the retreat as if nothing had happened. In order not to be noticed by Ryan in advance, he could only lead Ryan into the predetermined ambush point, and of course Ryan could not Then the obedient one must do what it wants, and it must be induced intentionally or unintentionally by a strong illithid monster.
Since the strong ones in the realm of illithids are suspended in mid-air, although they are only about one meter away from the ground, they are freed from the constraints of the terrain after all. This allows the illithids to not have to rely on their fragile and outrageous abilities. It has to move its body, otherwise even if the skeletal warriors around it move forward by crawling, it will never be able to break free from the encircling net that is about to encircle it.
Now that the powerful person in the field of illithid monsters has determined the purpose of luring the enemy, he naturally has to make some changes quietly. While waving his arms, he lit a blazing fire wall in front of him. The fire wall was three meters wide. rice, because the high temperature emitted by the combustion causes indescribable distortions in the surrounding air. Any skeleton warrior who steps into it will be reduced to ashes by the flames in a short moment. This serves the purpose of blocking the enemy.
After using the multiple walls of fire on his side to slow down the progress of the skeleton warrior, the strong man in the field of illithids immediately released a teleportation magic. The white light flashed away, and it had appeared about a few hundred meters away. On top of the lake outside, this lake is only two hundred meters long and less than a hundred meters wide. It is not deep enough to store any particularly powerful monsters. Naturally, it cannot help the illithid too much, but the illithid is still suspended in the lake. Obscure magic spells were recited above the water.
After the spell was completed, the lake water at the feet of the illithid suddenly began to oscillate. Countless ripples spread out in circles, causing the place to immediately lose its previous calm. Before the ripples on the lake surface spread to the shore, the lake water unexpectedly Slowly began to rise, like a countercurrent waterfall, blocking the powerful person in the illithid field. When the water curtain rose to about ten meters, the humid water vapor in the air suddenly began to cool, and then countless snowflakes Flowing freely on the dry lake bottom soil, the rising water curtain also froze in the rapidly falling low temperature, forming an ice wall that was extremely smooth on the surface.
Magic like turning water into ice does look spectacular, but in fact its effect is unusually small. How could an ice wall with a length of only one or two hundred meters be able to block the endless army of skeletons? Stacked it over, this is something that the strong person in the field of illithids knows very well. After completing the entire ice wall, it found that the skeleton warriors had used their numerical advantage to suppress the fire wall they had ignited, and crossed this obstacle that hindered them. Moving forward, it quickly began to recite the next magic incantation. The time it bought was running out, so it had to move faster.
This magic actually took nearly a minute for a strong person in the field of illithids to complete, and the object of its spell was the ice wall less than two hundred meters long. With the blessing of the water forbidden spell magic, the entire ice wall The wall turned into a source of cold breath, penetrating the biting cold into every inch of the surrounding air. A group of skeleton warriors about several kilometers away had just stepped into the area shrouded in the cold breath. The speed immediately slowed down significantly, and starting from their feet touching the ground, the almost transparent white frost quickly spread upwards along the skeletal bodies, turning these skeletal warriors into stiff bodies within a few seconds. ice sculpture,
Seeing that his method of blocking the enemy was completed, the strong man in the field of illithids did not hesitate to launch another teleportation and left the place. Due to the existence of the ice wall blessed with water forbidden spell magic, Ryan's skeleton army chased him. The formation inevitably became chaotic. After all, even if these resurrected undead warriors were used for consumption, they would not be thrown away in vain, and they wanted to dispatch hundreds of thousands of skeleton warriors to bypass the shroud for nearly seven kilometers. Within the scope of the water-based forbidden spell in the area, the existing troops must be re-allocated, such as temporarily stopping the movement of the skeleton warriors near the ice wall, mobilizing new troops from other directions to continue the containment, etc.
The commotion of the Skeleton Legion only lasted for about five minutes before it subsided. This efficiency was far better than that of all elite legions in other worlds. After all, a thousand people have a thousand hearts. No matter how elite, there must be a process of conveying orders and accepting execution. Not to mention that there are a huge number of 500 million legions here. The time it takes to accurately pass the order to each soldier is calculated in hours. It is absolutely impossible to rely solely on the strength of Ryan like With the control of a person's mental power like arms and fingers, the coordination is completed in just a few minutes.
From the beginning of the battle to now, Ryan has been controlling the skeleton warriors to suppress the illithid opponents. He himself has hardly expended any energy, because he accumulated the entire huge army bit by bit in half a month. Yes, and magic such as resurrection of the dead consumes a certain amount of mana when casting a spell to resurrect. When the undead creature starts to execute orders based on instinct, it only needs to be commanded through spiritual power, and no additional mana expenditure is required.
Of course, even if no extra mana is consumed, it is extremely difficult to command such a large number of legionnaires with spiritual power alone. Others, even if they have the strength to resurrect 500 million skeleton warriors, cannot do it. Control like an arm and a finger. Fortunately, Ryan has been good at this style of suppressing combat with numerical superiority since he first learned multi-casting. However, the missiles and fireballs he controlled before have now become resurrected undead warriors. That's all
It is precisely because of this foundation and strength that when Ryan controlled a group of tens of millions to surround the strong men in the illithid field, his own formation was always watching from hundreds of kilometers away. , this distance is just right, Ryan can stay out of the situation, and can also put great pressure on the illithid opponent, forcing it to use half of its strength to guard itself. Otherwise, it is just some skeleton warriors, and it is impossible to let the spirit flayers of that domain level. The sucking monster became so embarrassed,
When the strong man in the field of illithid monsters continuously used fire walls, water-based forbidden spells to freeze thousands of miles and other means to block the enemy, he successfully got rid of the tens of millions of sub-groups that were chasing after him, but Ryan was not worried about anything, because He deployed a considerable number of troops on both wings. In a short period of time, the illithid enemy would never be able to bypass his encirclement and return to the hinterland of the fighting battlefield behind him. Just to achieve the purpose of continuing to suppress, Ryan must Bringing this enemy back into your attack range, after all, it was not his presence that stopped the illithid strongman on the opposite side. No matter how many skeleton warriors there were, they could not stop the incredible methods of a strong man in the field.
After issuing the new order, Ryan's formation also adjusted its direction and pursued the retreating direction of the strong men in the illithid field. Soon, Ryan's skeleton army was hundreds of kilometers away. Somewhere, the strong man in the field of illithids was surrounded again. This time, the huge number of skeleton warriors did not leave any gap for him to escape. The strong man in this field had been completely defeated by Ryan's boundless legions. surrounded,
Seeing that the purpose of the encirclement was finally achieved, Ryan nodded slightly. He was less than two hundred kilometers away from the northern border. Perhaps it was for this reason that the strong man in the field of illithid monsters gave up and continued to escape, and had to stop and carry out this In the final battle, in order to command this battle to kill the strong men in the field, Ryan quickly detected the surrounding environment and soon discovered that the terrain here was quite strange. In front of him was a basin covered with stone forests. , after months of erosion, countless boulders have turned into pillar-like shapes standing on the ground. In addition, there are red-brown gravels everywhere. It is impossible for such a desolate terrain to accommodate a large number of legions. The strong illithids among them probably had a similar idea in choosing this place for the decisive battle.
Looking at the huge basin in front of him, Ryan's eyes turned to the mountains lying on the side. Looking around, he happened to see a relatively gentle hillside. The wooden piles less than half a meter on the ground showed that many trees had been cut down here. There are no large city ruins nearby, so all this should have been done when the battle broke out not long ago. There are no trees on the hillside, allowing Ryan to place a large number of skeleton warriors and observe the battle situation in the basin from a high position. Indeed It was a very good place, so Ryan chose this place as the location for his main camp.
