Chapter 547 - 201: Top Holy Land? Half-step Legend? Feel the Great Terror of the Mage! (15K)_3
Spells as potent as Kael's were not even up for discussion, a direct mess to the face; even the dragons and Titans, known for their bodily strength, wouldn't bother enduring such an attack without good reason.
But Kael quickly came to a realization... In the timeline of "Empire's Ashes", the concept of Compound Magic was just starting to sprout, and many spells with extreme effects were still unknown to the masses.
Even the connections between Mages were not particularly close, primarily maintaining a form similar to traditional apprenticeship—there was neither a Mage Academy nor a Magic Association.
Even though the level of "Magic Monarch" had emerged during this era, the term itself wasn't formally proposed until over a hundred years later.
Fortunately, Kael had a vivid recollection of certain specific knowledge and quickly came to another realization.
"How could I forget... Players from my previous life constantly referred to Mages from the era of the Yibel Federation as the 'dawn of the Mage era,' yet I forgot that in the time of the goblin empire, there was only the concept of Spellcasters, not Mages."
Indeed, the Mages of this period, in comparison to Kael's own timeline, might better be described as... a desert of Mages!
The Anti-Casting Field Device was not designed to guard against Mages, but rather those top professionals and God's Chosen with certain spellcasting or Divine Arts abilities.
Kael had been so preoccupied with the Anti-Casting Field Device preventing him from casting spells that he had overlooked this critical issue.
This extremely rare Compound Magic, even one of the birthplaces of mainstream magic, the Supreme Forest, had very few Elves with a concept of this type of magic, let alone preparations to defend against it specifically.
With this thought, Kael's face broke into a smile of someone with a plan coming to fruition.
So, are you saying that even God's Chosen of this era would most likely be unfamiliar with Compound Magic?
Kael suddenly felt that the challenges he was about to face might not be as terrifying as he had imagined.
It is known that there are a total of 5 God's Chosen within the Alliance of multiple nations, representing the God of Nature, the God of Love and Change, the God of Death, the Earth Mother God, and the Lord of Dawn.
Among them, it is highly probable that the God's Chosen of the Earth Mother God and the Lord of Dawn could be turned, especially the God's Chosen of the Earth Mother Goddess Church, who happens to be Kael's old Housekeeper, the Sword Maniac White.
Therefore, among the strong Divine Powers of God's Chosen, it is entirely possible that those of the Earth Mother God and the Lord of Dawn could hold off two of the God's Chosen.
And the last remaining God's Chosen might ultimately have to be dealt with by Kael himself... However, Kael felt that there was a very good chance he wouldn't be able to win.
Because for this Dungeon assault, Kael had a plan that would deceive not just the eye, but the sky as well.
He intended to have Wandong City shut down the Anti-Casting Field Device.
Although it seemed that the Anti-Casting Field Device had protected Wandong City from being immediately overrun by the God's Chosen and their praying subordinates, there was no doubt that if they were to engage in direct combat with the device activated, they would be unable to eliminate the enemy's living force.
If they wanted to win the battle, resorting to the desperate counterattack approach used in the first round of the assault was absolutely not the way to go, at least... not in this manner.
He slowly descended from the heights, with the Gluttonous Slime Queen Aister crazily ingesting the surrounding air.
The scarcity of oxygen at high altitudes could affect Kael's condition to some extent, as lack of oxygen meant his brain couldn't respond in time, making spellcasting troublesome.
Therefore, the first thing Kael did after flying high was to have Aister help him breathe.
"With this move, the Elf Clan loses their high ground advantage and the ability to lead the war, only being able to retreat and lick their wounds for the time being."
Kael's expression was unflinching, he even felt a urge to laugh.
Last time, after chatting with Cardinal Tetu of the Earth Mother God and Cardinal Robert of Losanda in the prayer room of the Earth Mother Goddess Church, and after seeing his peers from the Church of the God of Literature and Knowledge in the Royal Capital, it wasn't long before Kael, having finished his work, returned to Lancaster.
By that time, most players in Lancaster had already experienced several rounds of assault on "Empire's Ashes" and had gained a sufficient understanding of the general background.
Of course, this was not the most crucial part; the players were the key to successfully clearing the entire dungeon this time, and Kael was keenly aware of this.
He silently reflected on the relevant data he had collected recently, a relaxed smile appearing on his face.
Yes, without a doubt, this was the right choice!
Kael reassured himself once more in his heart, strengthening the resolve for his plans.
As for the arrangements with the players, he had already assigned them their tasks in advance through mission briefings.
He didn't even discuss the reasons for these tasks with any players; he merely instructed the Rangers and every player in a very serious manner to acknowledge that if they chose this mission, their fate in the dungeon would already be sealed...
It would be a path that leads only to death.
Because of this, Kael, before entering the Dungeon, visited the mission board area of Titan City several times, repeatedly emphasizing the uniqueness of this mission to the players, and the purpose of Lancaster to completely save Wandong City.
Perhaps driven by the memories of their arduous experiences in Wandong City, many indignant players decisively chose to enlist at the earliest opportunity.
What do you think?
