Chapter 50 The Mage's Fighting Style
On the city wall, the battle between the living and the dead is still extremely fierce, and the two sides are in a stalemate. The adventurers seem to tear the deceased's defenses at any time, but they are always short of that critical effort.
Lynn wanted to cast spells, but he was worried. The two sides were too close to each other. Casing large-scale killing spells is likely to kill teammates by chance. Single spells dealing with these endless cannon fodder is just a waste of magic.
Seeing the stalemate situation in front of him, Lynn wanted to use the Lord of the Ring to summon the Knights, but was worried that before it could play a key role, his magic would be drained unnecessary, and the battle below would be even more difficult to fight.
He gritted his teeth and planned to enter the battle with the hammer, but he didn't know that this was exactly the enemy's expectation. If he blindly joined the battle, the battle situation would be decided and the adventurer's side would have a slim chance of winning.
Fortunately, someone still saw the situation clearly.
"Linn, what is the first apprenticeship code?" A crisp childish voice made Linnci stop.
Looking back, I found that my new disciple was looking at him seriously. The quiet and weird look made Lin En, who was surging in his heart, feel that he was an apprentice. The weird expression made Lin En ignore the meaning. The newly recruited disciple, who was usually extremely gentle, actually called his name.
"The first rule of the mage is that the power of a mage comes from knowledge, but the power of knowledge must be used to maintain a calm mind at all times!" The rules that I remembered were instinctively emerging in Lin N's heart, and at the same time, he recalled a farewell message from Will.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"This is my farewell gift. Remember to read it after you go out. Don't lose my people." Will handed a booklet to Lynn, thinking it was a precious magic secret. Lynn happily glanced at the cover and immediately stepped down.
On the cover of the golden booklet was Lin Neng's six familiar words - the code of apprenticeship of the wizard. Seeing Lin Neng appearing in surprise, Will smiled and said, "Don't underestimate this thing. How many things have changed for thousands of years, but why has this been passed down since I was an apprentice? After all, it is because many apprentices have not met the requirements of the code. As a mage, the most basic requirement, although he has memorized the booklet thoroughly."
Seeing Lin Neng's disapproval, Will added, "Actually, I think you are the same!" He waved his hand to stop Lin Neng's rebuttal and continued, "I heard that you like to rush up and play close combat with people and charge? At critical moments, it is a good thing to be enthusiastic and brave enough to charge, but as a mage, this kind of behavior is undoubtedly irresponsible to yourself and is a burden to the team."
If someone else had spoken to Lin En like this, Lin En would have punched him, but the presumptuousness and recent teachings at first meeting that day made Lin En respect him, so he bowed his head and asked for advice.
Before parting, Will did not keep it in hiding again. "In the practice of adventurers, mages are the only profession that can directly question the captain's decision. We stand in the last row of the team, not only because the front row warships need to cast spells for us, but more importantly, mages who read books often play the role of team brains. The power of mages comes from knowledge, and warriors can charge in the battle with passion. If mages cannot think calmly, haha, hunters like prey without brains the most."
Wil paused and continued, "Everything is difficult at the beginning, but a mistake can lead to the destruction of the team. So, my farewell gift to you is: When you are at a loss, try this three-stage thinking, think more about what your teammates need, what your enemies want, and how can you prevent him from doing what you want?"
---------------------------------------------------------
"What are my enemies planning? The opponent's high-level combat power has not been used. Now we have the advantage. They want to use fuel-adding tactics to kill us. The opponent's strength is obviously superior. They want us to fight hard with them." The first stage of the three-stage style was completed.
"What do my companions need me to sit on? Haha, I'm so stupid. If I continue to fight like this, I will definitely be exhausted. The most important thing now is to seek support." Lynn concluded and took action immediately.
Thinking of the instructor's teachings, compared with the current scene, he, who was not stupid, finally saw that the undead's plan was coming, and Lynn was immediately scared and sweated. In fact, if he calmed down and thought, the undead's premeditation would definitely not be able to keep him busy, but there were a few more people who could still think calmly when they first went to the battlefield.
"Fortunately, I gave the apprenticeship code to Little Catherine yesterday, and Luckily, Little Catherine is smart and calm," he smiled gratefully at his disciples, and then thought about the countermeasures seriously.
However, seeking support is not an easy task, but the calm time traveler has always had many bad ideas. At this time, he had an idea again.
Lynn immediately tore a scroll and summoned a low-level fire element as a guard and a meat shield. This low-level fire element can be ignored on this scale, but Dangdang's meat shield is still qualified, and then he concentrates on chanting the spell and starts casting.
The huge gap in level and experience made the corpse witch immediately recognize that he was casting the three-ring arcane fireball technique, but due to the fire element as a block, he could not counterattack immediately (the mage's common skills use the same magic to offset the identified spells, but the counterattacker is required to be far superior to the opponent, and the casting has just begun, and there is no barrier between the two) hinder the casting. So he immediately imposed group protection flame element damage on his team. The huge advantage in level allowed him to come first. After the casting, he still had time to make a ghost-crying smile at Linn, mocking him for releasing the fireball that was destined to return without success.
But what surprised the undead was that the fireball's target was not them from beginning to end.
"Ha" Lynn completed the chanting of the mantra under the gaze of everyone. With a light push of his hands, an orange-red fireball actually headed straight towards the city gate not far away.
There was a loud "boom" sound, and the giant gate reinforced with magic just kept shaking and was not damaged at all. However, when the city gate was attacked, the alarm bells at the city walls rang. According to convention, the city guards would arrive soon.
In fact, Lin Neng cannot cast a range damage spell here. The city wall is only three meters wide. The secret technique of specializing in Lin Neng's fireball is too large to damage the range. It is difficult to hurt his teammates at this distance. The situation has been reversed by Lin Neng's magical stroke. Now the undead side is the undead side. In a short time, the city guarding army will appear.
The undead were instantly in agitation, and the crypt spiders focused their attention on the mage wearing warrior skin. The bone spear that was concentrated on shooting instantly shot the fire element as a flesh shield into a sieve. However, during the period when the fire element was fighting for life, Lin Neng had completed the second spell chanting, and a fireball shot into the sky.
"A cloud-piercing arrow, thousands of troops will meet. Xueer, don't let me down." Lin En never hoped that Xueer would remember the messy stories she told. His recent experience has gradually made him ashamed.
His worries will not be shown to the enemy. Lynn laughed loudly, retreating backwards and avoiding the bone spear and attacking spells that were shooting at him, while also fighting psychological warfare and issuing a declaration of victory.
