Chapter 44: New Spells
(Thanks to Yu Mingjun for his reward! According to the candidates for the voting heroes, there are two more chapters to appear soon! Please collect them!)
Donald, who had already sat down in the small military tent assigned to him at this time, did not know the situation in the fortress, nor did he know that the news had been reported by the officer, and he had already entered the eyes of the highest commander of the human side in this war.
I don’t know that when they face the crisis of orcs, they almost all became pawns and even cannon fodder for the fortress military.
Taking advantage of the fact that the highest commander of this war had a few hours before the dinner for the nobles and professions, it was basically too late to learn new spells. Donald was preparing to choose the constant skills given by the soul level lv2 and lv3.
Along the way, he kept thinking about how to choose. After all, there are too many optional skills from the Warcraft, and he is about to face the test of going to the battlefield. Finally, between how to save his life and how to expand the results of killing enemies, Donald prefers the latter.
After all, this is the best way and opportunity for him to obtain military achievements. After missing this time, he doesn't know how long it will take to obtain his own territory. Without territory, you cannot establish a private army and cannot establish his own power. So he is still worth taking this risk.
With his mage physique, although he has greatly improved after taking office as a Demon Hunter, he has only been promoted from an ordinary person to an equivalent to a peak Black Iron warrior. Compared with the powerful swordsman who has learned the seed of Dou Qi above the bronze level, there are still a world of difference in melee professions such as knights and knights.
In this case, once the summoning creatures are not enough to protect them and the body is injured, it is sometimes too late to recover by just redeeming potions.
Therefore, when you cannot leave the battlefield, choosing a skill that can save your life and enhance combat effectiveness is undoubtedly the most appropriate.
"If it weren't for the ultimate skill of the Demon Hunter, the demon transformation would not have been revealed in front of many people. This ultimate move is the best group killing, self-protection skill, and after transformation, you can release a ranged energy attack like a demon flame. Moreover, there is almost no interval for the magic recovery. A casual blow can have the power of a second-level attack spell, which is as powerful as a transformation into a mobile turret."
Donald is very familiar with the skills in these monsters, but the situation in the real world is different from that in the game, so he also needs to combine the deduction of the Book of Truth to decide the choice that suits him the most.
The remaining similar skills are the wild transformation of the Elf Claw Druid, and the ultimate skill of the human hero, the King of Hills, the Gods descending to earth. They are undoubtedly the most suitable ways to improve individual strength in the battlefield.
However, the Claw Druid's bear-changing talent skill is that after turning into a violent giant bear, he cannot cast spells other than druids, which makes most of his ability useless, so turning into a bear is not a suitable choice.
As for the dwarf king's ultimate move, God's descending to earth, which is of the same kind as the demon transformation, the combat power can be achieved by both after casting it, and they are all talented skills that greatly increase their vitality and defense. One has a powerful body that obtains temporary demon physique, and the other has a powerful body that obtains temporary Titan giant physique. The demon transformation also has the advantages of infinite ranged spell attack ability, and the God's descending to earth has increased the amplitude of physical combat ability. Relatively speaking, demon transformation is undoubtedly more suitable for casters.
Although the gods descended to the earth and were very powerful, they could almost instantly temporarily raise a warrior at the bronze level to the peak of silver and close to the powerful combat power of the gold level, this ultimate move has essential flaws for Donald.
That is, the physique given by the gods descending to earth obviously increases pure magic resistance, and magic resistance can be understood as rejection of magic. With the strength of the silver mage, after obtaining those magic resistance, they may not even be able to release the most basic trick, let alone a black iron mage like Donald. This ultimate move is a surprise on the warrior, and a disaster on the mage, so it is not suitable for the mage profession at all. If you insist on choosing, it will be a backfire.
In fact, one of the most satisfying ultimate moves in Donald's mind is the elemental clone of the neutral hero Panda Wine Fairy. This ultimate move can differentiate into three elements: Earth, Flame and Storm. They all have their own attribute talents and skills, including multiple hero-level skills, including the Sword Saint's Breaking Wind Step, the Taurus Chief's Rebirth and other powerful skills.
The biggest advantage is that even if the body dies, the soul can be resurrected from the three clones. Of course, after resurrection, it will not be a pure human but a semi-elemental creature.
This is equivalent to having three more lives. If you have such an opportunity, you will probably give him the golden level strength even if you don’t change. There are other resurrection methods in the Book of Truth, which can be achieved by combining them together. Below the golden level, it is simply an immortal body.
Unfortunately, the rules of the elemental clone skill are too complex and powerful. Even after calculating through the Book of Truth, you must have a soul level above lv5 to differentiate into the first clone, otherwise the soul of the body will not be able to withstand the effect of the skill. Therefore, if you choose now, it is equivalent to taking up a quota for nothing and cannot be used in a short period of time. So Donald gave up this temptation and wait until the conditions are met.
Considering many influences and conditions, his first talented spell was the teleportation technique of lifesaving skills, so this time Donald decided to choose a relatively powerful attack skill to make up for his weakness of lacking effective attack methods.
First of all, some range attacks were eliminated. In addition to the flame impact of the blood elf mage, the blizzard of the great mage, the flame rain of the abyss lord, and the ultimate ultimate move of the moon priest, the tornado of the Naga female sea witch, the volcanic eruption of the flame lord, and other ultimate moves are powerful, but they all have long casting staggers. It is easy to be attacked by the enemy during this period of time. Moreover, the power of the imposing force at his level is probably not satisfactory, and it needs to be upgraded step by step like teleportation, so there is no need to consider it for the time being.
As for the death knight's death entanglement, the rotten bee swarm of the fearful demon king, the death and withering of the Lich's ultimate move, etc., they all rely on the use of dark power to achieve their goals.
As a living Donald instinctively hates the aura of the undead, and the continent also has a disgust attitude towards the existence of darkness, so although these skills are equally powerful, they are not under his consideration.
Finally, Donald chose Frost Nova and Life to absorb these two skills as the second and third talented spells given to him by the Book of Truth.
The Lich's Frost Nova is an extremely effective field control skill. It can create a frost explosion triggered by the target location and spread outward, causing damage to all nearby enemies and slowing down their movement and attack rates.
First of all, the advantage of this spell instantly released is that it is incomparable to the ultimate moves like Blizzard and Fire Rain. Although the flame impact of the blood technique has high damage and a wide area and a long duration, it is slow to release, and it also requires preparation time. Frost Nova can be released in thoughts. While restricting the enemy's movements within the spell range, this spell derived from the power of ice will also burst out with considerable effective damage.
With this skill in his body, even if he encounters a dangerous situation of being surrounded by the enemy, he can still kill him in a chaotic battlefield, and even control the summoned creatures to fight back. If he uses a skill like teleportation to escape from the battlefield, maybe some guys will arrange for themselves to be charged with escaping and fleeing. It would be good if he was not punished at that time, so he would not want to make a contribution.
The third talented spell, Donald, was swaying between the two hero skills of the Dark Ranger's life absorption and the Blood Elf Prince's magic sucking. Both of these special skills have powerful effects. At least from Donald's perspective on the mage profession, it is impossible for professions in this world to master such magical spell skills before reaching the golden level.
One of the two talented spells can absorb the enemy's life to replenish its own vitality. No matter how much damage it is, it can recover. The other can steal the enemy's magic power and increase its own magic limit when it comes, which is even more powerful for a mage.
However, when I thought that magic sucking and the magic burning effect of the demon hunter partially overlap, and magic burning cannot replenish itself, but I can exchange the potion to replenish magic through the Book of Truth at any time.
Some effects of life absorption cannot be achieved by recovery agents. After all, no matter how high the effect of the agent is, it can only recover from injuries. However, the fresh vitality absorbed from the enemy can bring vitality to one's body.
So Donald wisely chose to absorb life.
……………………
Before the dinner, taking advantage of the sunset, the Ansel family, the highest host of the Northwest Border Army, summoned the army and held a pre-war speech in front of many nobles and civilian soldiers who came under the imperial edict.
As one of the audience, Donald was naturally fortunate to see the Ansel Holy Sword Legion, which is known as one of the strongest legions in the Kingdom. This private legion with thousands of formal members is indeed an excellent army with neat military appearance and powerful momentum. And as rumored, each member has at least the strength of a peak Black Iron Swordsman. A few of the stronger Silver Swordsmen made Donald, the Black Iron Mage, feel a wave of oppression.
What surprised Donald the most was that the current leader of the army that came on stage to deliver a speech was actually a young general who was only two or three years older than him.
However, through spiritual sensing, Donald vaguely knew that the young general's strength was not to be underestimated, at least above the middle level of bronze.
"I am indeed a child of the Ansel family, and it is indeed extraordinary."
Then Donald thought that as the private legion of the Marquis of Ansel family, although the Holy Sword Legion was named in the Kingdom Army and nominally accepted the command of His Majesty the King, it was actually completely in the hands of the Ansel family. Without their orders, even His Majesty the King's will, he could not mobilize a swordsman in the Legion.
When the Bannai Empire had not yet collapsed, Ansel's ancient family was not inferior to the ancient magic empire nobles of the Selt family. Even the upper class of the empire had a higher voice than the Selt family. This was because the Ansel family had a powerful swordsman heritage, and many members became guardian swordsmen of the high-level mages of the empire. The Selt family was a merchant family at that time. Although they had countless wealth, Ansel, who was undoubtedly a family of followers of the mage, was valued by the ancient magic empire ruled by the mage.
Due to various coincidences, after the collapse of the empire, Ansel and Selt, two nobles of the ancient magic empire, were all in the northern part of the continent, which was sparsely populated at that time. The Selt family was ambitious and hoped to rise up and rule one side in that chaotic era. The Ansel family was discouraged by the collapse of the Bannai Empire and had no idea of fighting for the peak of power in the continent. The two reached an agreement to support Selt to establish a country, and then grant Ansel a territory for reproduction and thriving, and survive together in the vast land of the north.
In this way, the two major families, both nobles of the ancient magic empire, took root in the north in different ways, and established the Kingdom of Celtic with a group of refugees who fled here due to war.
However, with the strong rise of Celte VII and the great power of the royal family, the Ansel family, which did not surpass their behavior, became increasingly suspicious.
After all, this family is too powerful, strong enough to directly shake the foundation of the Celtic Kingdom and subvert the hegemony of the royal family.
If it weren't for the three most powerful forces in the kingdom, the Knights of Honor were directly under the command of the royal family, although the Celtic Gouta Mage Corps was under the control of the Mage Society, they generally would not refuse the royal family's entrustment. This was a covenant signed many years ago.
