First of all, Xia Duo hid in the dark, and it was definitely unrealistic to directly help Iolum. Without prior ventilation, the two sides could not cooperate at all, and they might be surrounded and beaten by both sides when they went out.

Then you can only target the elf mage alone, but the elf mage is in the state of a saint, and it is almost impossible to sneak attack.

Then, the only solution is to use an attack that can directly make the opponent unable to resist!

Spells that directly target a target are usually directional spells.

If it is a non-directional spell, the effect of the spell needs to be carried by the magic net. As soon as the magic effect is approaching here, the corresponding countermeasures may have been made there.

And directional spells are similar to quantum entanglement. As soon as the spell is completed on one side, it will take effect immediately on the other side, and it is too late to notice.

Typical representatives of this type of spells are all kinds of curses. Of course, all kinds of transformation spells are also directional spells, but the distance of the spells is not as far as the curse.

This situation is affected by demand. Under normal circumstances, it is estimated that no one needs to bless another person with the [Flying Technique] from a long distance.

…

And if you want to get rid of this elf in one go, the spell level must be full.

The magic net doesn't stop until the tenth level. Under normal circumstances, the highest spell level can only reach level 10, but through "low-level elements express high-level", the equivalent spell level can theoretically be increased infinitely.

It's just that the magic net doesn't have a deeper and more complex structure to actually support this type of spells, and in layman's terms it can't be simplified.

Starting from the 10th level, the difficulty of casting spells will increase geometrically with each step up!

Similar to Xia Duo's idea of ​​letting a level 1 mage only use the surface layer of the magic net and the magic elements of the first layer to express the 9th-level spells.

Theoretically it is feasible, but in fact, it is so difficult to cast spells across so many rings, and it may not be possible to replace it with a robot, let alone a living human being with various emotional disturbances.

And above the 10th level, due to the lack of support from the deep magic net, the automatic transformation trend between elements before the 10th level is lost, and the difficulty of casting spells is even higher.

In layman's terms, it requires stronger control, or a higher degree of concentration.

Xia Duo with the 11th ring can be imagined, but with the 12th ring, it is almost unimaginable.

For the current situation, a 10-level spell should be enough. Even if the elf is not in the form of a saint, but only appears in the flesh without any protection, a small fish-killing knife may be deadly enough.

But out of prudent considerations, Xia Duo still decided to use the 11th ring, otherwise such a rare opportunity to move first was wasted, and he would have to fight hard.

In the absence of prior communication and discussion of cooperation strategies, 1+1 may not necessarily be greater than 2, and it may be less than 1!

It must be finalized!

…

As for which spell to choose, Xia Duo actually had no choice at all. He was currently researching only two 11th ring items.

One is levitation or flight, the essence is the same; the other is matter transformation, or more precisely, water into stone (for now). valley

These two spells are preparations for the floating city. The reason why the mountain is not cut as the main body of the floating city is that on the one hand, it does not want to destroy the natural environment, and the number of mountains is always limited. After popularizing education in the future, there will be a large number of great arcanists , Xia Duo felt that as a leader of civilization, he couldn't make such a bad start.

On the other hand, he hopes that the floating city is not just a ground building built on floating stones, but should be a strategic equipment like a space battleship as a whole, and all parts must be fully utilized.

The research on these two magic rings has been on the agenda since he became a great arcanist, but was delayed by various things, so that a finished product was not completed.

But whether it is completed and whether it can be used is not the same thing.

Taking Levitation as an example, the effect Xia Duo wants is to be able to cooperate with the blueprint of the floating city to generate an adaptive floating field, and at the same time reserve open nodes for subsequent control, as well as corresponding protection and countermeasure mechanisms.

This is a systematic project, perhaps it should be called "Floating City Flight Control System", it is not just as simple as lifting a big rock into the sky.

If only one level 11 [Levitation Technique] was required, Xia Duo would have completed it a long time ago. This can't even be called a research task, it can only be regarded as a boring game to pass the time.

As for the transformation of matter, it can be called "the main construction and repair and maintenance system of the floating city". It also needs to be used in conjunction with the blueprint, and an open node needs to be reserved for relevant personnel to use or access to the fan lock.

However, the deep transformation spell from water to stone, like the so-called 11th ring [levitation spell], Xia Duo completed early in the morning.

This is not a special attack spell, just like chopsticks are not a special attack weapon, but this does not prevent chopsticks from being a tool for killing people under certain circumstances.

Similarly, in the current situation, Xia Duo needs to use such a petrification spell that should have been used for construction to launch an attack. He only needs to adjust the distance of the spell to make it work on the target elf.

…

Fine-tuning the spell is not difficult for Xia Duo, it can even be said to be extremely easy, the only thing that worries him is the process of casting the spell.

On the one hand, the equivalent 11-level spell is expressed with 10-level elements, which already increases the difficulty of casting the spell. On the other hand, he has never actually cast this spell before.

Everything is still on paper. After all, this is not a separate project, but one of the sub-projects. Before today, Xia Duo didn't even think about this situation.

Even if he believes that his spell design has absolutely no loopholes, it is hard not to bring tremendous pressure if he casts such a spell that will affect him if he loses control without testing and practice.

But in comparison, this is already the most likely solution he can think of. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

Or to gamble, Iolum will not miss because of his sudden appearance, and will cooperate with him tacitly to cut down the elf together.

When betting on this, you have to bet at the same time that the elves will not explode in desperation, or they will not keep their hands.

Of course, you can also bet that the person from the Seven Towers has arrived nearby, and wait for him to make a move to scare the elf first, and then everyone joins shoulders to kill the elf.

Xia Duo has never liked to gamble, nor does he like to follow the crowd. In the past, he had no choice when he was not capable enough, but now that he has a choice, he certainly hopes to firmly hold the initiative in his own hands.

…

After making up his mind, Xia Duo began to retreat carefully. Although it is almost impossible for the opponent to perceive his casting movement at the current distance, it is better to be on the safe side.

In addition, this spell takes a long time to cast and requires higher concentration. During this period, Xia Duo is almost undefended to the outside world. A little distance is also convenient for him to deploy the protective measures of Austrian fire.
