(completed)

 Prophet Hill has no objection to Kui Lu’s arrangement.

 At this time, I gave a brief introduction to both parties.

Immediately afterwards, Laila began to contact Kelben and quickly started to create the magic door.

 Only a moment.

 Still within this secret palace.

 When an arched magical light door is created in the void.

　　One figure after another quickly walked out from this light door.

 These people obviously have several small teams.

 There is a team of all spellcasters, and naturally they should all be elite members of the Black Staff Tower.

 There is standard heavy armor, and there is an order that is obviously different from the adventurer team. Most of them should come directly from the elite of the army.

 Long ago, Valsharis had already shown his ambition for Waterdeep City.

 Hence, the masked lords of Waterdeep City did not sit back and watch the outbreak of the battle of Lismaiasa today.

There is also an elite team composed of a mix of various professions, including spellcasters, priests, elven magic archers, dwarf heavy shield warriors, and even half-orcs with half-body armor. People and even drow are in it.

 Surprisingly, he was a member of the "Moonstar Organization" that Kelben founded after breaking away from the Harpers!

 The support from Waterdeep City comes in two batches.

 A group of people, led by the legendary adventurer Dunan, had already arrived at Lismaiasa and had joined Leylin Evans and others.

 That group is mainly composed of adventure groups and mercenary groups, and the composition is quite complicated.

At this time, the group led by Kelben was much more pure.

 Either they are the elite team of the army, or they are all his students, apprentices, or subordinates.

It is precisely because of this purity that Kui Lu can be confident that even if she has to disperse some of her power to assist Prophet Hill in fighting the devil's army, there is no risk of it being leaked. There is still power hidden here.

Isaac is also observing this support team.

 When excluding Cavatina and excluding Kelben.

Although the average level of the Darksong Knights and the high-level priests is higher than that of the support team.

 But with an absolute advantage in terms of numbers, the overall strength of this support team composed of three teams is definitely better than that of the Dark Song Knights.

 Ever since the demise of the Kingdom of Nama'elita, Eilistraee's faith has only become a minority among the drow.

Although the Darksong Knights are powerful and have a tough and wild style, their shortcomings in numbers and size cannot be made up for in a short period of time.

“Not only the overall strength, but also the magic power.”

Led by Kelben, the mage and warlock from the Black Staff Tower, more than 20 people came.

 Whether it is to perform legendary rituals, or go further and combine it with high magic rituals, this is enough to unfold!

Kui Lu's side is much inferior.

As a double elect of Eilistraee and the Goddess of Magic, even Kui Lu should have mastered high magic abilities, but if it were just the Eilistraee Church itself, the team she brought would not even be able to build a complete nine-story building. The magic circle of the human ring cannot be constructed!

Of course, this kind of comparison is actually meaningless.

As long as necessary, the wizards and warlocks in the Black Staff Tower will not mind cooperating with the drow priests to cooperate with her in ritual casting as long as necessary.

after all…

Isaac’s gaze paused for a moment on one of the people in the Black Staff Tower team.

 Half-drow sorcerer, Keriani-Agrewal.

Back then, when Kui Lu transformed into Laila and visited the Red Kingdom, she was accompanied by this person.

This is also an elite member of the Black Staff Tower.

Judging from some legendary adventures, this half-drow warlock should be specially favored by the Silver Moon Goddess, and is born with abilities far superior to ordinary warlocks!

Probably because of the close relationship between the Silver Moon Goddess and Eilistraee, she also has a very close relationship with the Eilistraee Church. She was directly involved in the development of the Eilistraee Church in Dugas.

Because of her close relationship with Kui Lu, Isaac has also paid a lot of attention to her, so he can be sure that with her cooperation, Kui Lu can perform ritual casting or real high magic. , this should be no problem!

“Judging from Alustriel’s mastery of high magic, Lyla probably also has the same mastery. After all, with the direct help of Kelben, she is even closer to this than Alustriel.”

“With one Laila, one Kuilu, plus Kelben, it is possible to perform the ‘ritual of multitudes’.”

 “And, it’s not an ordinary ‘number ceremony’!”

With the speculation in his mind, Isaac's eyes flashed slightly.

 The usual "multiple rituals" are high magic rituals jointly performed by three high mages.

But in his speculation, the more powerful "Public Ceremony", or even the real "Public Ceremony", should be three high mages, each of whom controls a ritual circle, and then further passes through it. High magical rituals to achieve the final parallel.

Although this is completely different in nature from his "triple parallel ceremony", it has the same purpose.

 This time, if Kui Lu and the others really have it, they will prepare for this "numerous ceremony"...

“Three ritual formations, coupled with the leveraging of the High Mage himself, were finally combined together.”

“This is Mephistopheles. If you are caught off guard, you are always likely to be suppressed!”

Of course, Mephistopheles must be caught off guard. He will have no time to respond to the ritual and no time to interrupt...

 “It’s not easy!”

 “It’s even dangerous!”

  After all, Mephistopheles not only has powerful spell-like abilities, but most importantly, he also has the same spellcasting ability as a level 30 mage!

 His legendary spells!

 His "advanced teleportation technique"!

ˆHis "laws" and "blasphemous words"!

There is also the unpredictable spell-casting ability above the spell slot!

If you don't have the right time, just perform a high magic ritual casually, there is a real possibility of being killed by him, and you can still kill a large area in one go!

 Just Isaac deduced these in his mind.

 Under Kui Lu’s arrangement, the support team was quickly divided into two parts.

 Part of them immediately followed Prophet Hill and joined in the defense of the underground city.

 The other part, especially the spellcasters in the Black Staff Tower, were completely left behind.

 From this, it can be seen that his previous deduction has a considerable probability.

Khelben and the others must be prepared to use magic rituals to deal with Mephistopheles!

Thinking like this, seeing that Prophet Hill and others had left, Isaac no longer hid anything and looked at Kelben: "Is the Archmage prepared to deal with that person?"

When the opponent is Mephistopheles, this is him, and he does not dare to be careless at all. If Kelben has a plan and is sure of it, then he has the need to cooperate.

 But if Kelburn is not sure...he will have a different style of play.

"Disaster!"

 Khelben was shaking his head.

Although the Black Staff Archmage has never been in the habit of explaining things to others, it depends on the person.

 In fact, he also wanted to hear whether King Red had any plans?

This person's magic ability is undoubtedly higher than his.

Even his creativity in spells will never be second to him.

 So, with others, it’s an explanation, but with this person, it’s a discussion.

Shaking his head slightly, Kelben continued: "First of all, I still haven't been able to find out the essence of the contract between Valsaris and Him.

 Since it is difficult to determine whether dealing with Valsharis will allow him to completely regain his freedom and no longer be subject to any restrictions, we cannot even attack the drow queen directly. "

 This is the most critical issue.

At Kelben's level, it is natural to see that Mephistopheles has been paddling in the past few months.

The Lord of Hell is the manifestation of order and must not be able to violate the contract, but his interpretation of the terms of the contract may not be consistent with Valsaris.

Faintly, Kelben could see that this **** king might have plans to use their hands to legally get rid of the **** of the contract.

 “Not only Valsarius, but also Raelin Evanston.”

"Mephistopheles may want to use Leylin Evans's hand to get rid of the shackles of the contract, but he will not leave his own weaknesses in Leylin Evans because of this. "

"So, at present, unless we can find a target direction through Valsaris and directly from the perspective of the contract, otherwise, we will have to take action forcefully!"

 The words of Kelben.

 Isaac was also nodding slightly.

He and I basically agree that at the moment, the only thing that can be prepared in advance is how to target Mephistopheles's weaknesses.

 But...this weakness is too little!

Khelben's voice continued: "But if you want to take action forcefully, you have to talk about Mephistopheles' ability."

"Hell Lord, he is naturally immune to attribute damage and energy absorption, and is not immune to bleeding, blindness, deafness, blood sucking, charm, coercion, heavy blows, petrification, and death effects. He is also naturally immune to fire damage, cold damage, and Toxin damage.

In addition, He also has the effects of freedom of movement, psychic barrier, order shield, and true seeing.

At the same time, his spell resistance is probably over level 50...

 There are too few aspects that can be targeted at Him. "

 A series of immunities, plus constant "freedom of movement" and "psychic barrier".

This is almost immune to all restrictive means except "exile" and "imprisonment".

 The only things that can cause harm to Him are lightning, strong acid, sound waves, force fields, dissociation, and divine damage.

But whether these restriction methods or these damage methods, let alone whether it can break through his spell resistance of over 50 levels, even if it can barely be broken through, there is still a big problem behind this...

 Mephistopheles himself has the same spell-casting ability as a level 30 mage!

With such a combination, even Kelben can only truly threaten him by casting spells through rituals.

 But ritual casting requires at least a full round of casting time.

In the case that Mephistopheles has mastered legendary spells and can perform legendary dispelling at any time, it is hard to say how much threat this ritual casting can pose!

Kelben also has a number in his mind about this.

 In fact, even if Isaac didn't take the initiative to ask him, he would still communicate with Isaac.

He would not think that Leylin Evans and Cavatina alone would be able to block Mephistopheles and create an opportunity for them to perform high magic rituals!

“In addition, the threat of his magical abilities cannot be ignored.”

"He can use the 'Spell-like ability - Mythical Spellcasting' to perform 'laws' and 'blasphemy'. People whose life energy level is lower than level 25 will not be able to use it unless they are equipped with an 'anti-death barrier'." Not even close to Him.

 But even if an ‘anti-death barrier’ is attached, it can be forcibly dispelled.

In addition, once a day, he can also perform the 'Mythic Time Standstill' and 'Mythic Prayer'..."

 The myth of spell-like abilities basically poses no threat to Isaac, but it is not without exception.

Such as...that "mythical wishing technique"!

Mephistopheles is in charge of the "Knowledge Domain" and the "Rune Domain", and his connection with the essence of magic is by no means trivial. The "Prayer Technique" he performs is entirely possible to exceed ordinary strength. On this basis, If you add the "power of myth"...

Even Isaac dared not say that he would be immune to this!

Of course, he was already prepared for this!

Even if he maintains the status of "Legendary Trigger Spell", he still has 9 legendary spells per day.

Mephistopheles’s “Mythic Wishing Technique” only consumes one of his shots at most.

 Even, he does not necessarily need to perform legendary dispelling to deal with it.

With "Exceeding Limits of Spellcasting" combined with "Super Magic Hair Setting", even if he is really restricted by the "Mythic Prayer Technique", it is not impossible to force his way out.

 In the flash of his mind, Kelben’s foreshadowing was almost complete.

The words changed again, and finally came to targeted preparations: "So, I am going to deal with him from two aspects.

Forcibly banished, or temporarily imprisoned first, and then thrown back to His Nabaatar Hell!

 But there are some problems…”

At the moment, he discussed with Isaac how to cooperate so that Mephistopheles would have difficulty resisting and having a chance to escape.

In particular, it is necessary to ensure that, apart from Mephistopheles, there will be no other factors that may have an impact, so as not to cause unpredictable interference.

But looking at Mephistopheles’s series of abilities, and these are only the abilities in the data they have mastered, they may not be the true abilities of this **** king...

Even for them, it was still difficult to say for a while how sure they could be to absolutely restrain Mephistopheles!

This second person in Baator Hell, even if he is not in the **** level and not in his final form, he is still inestimably powerful.

 Only the information that can be seen currently, Protarus will hardly be able to match him!

 And they are constantly discussing.

 “Valsaris has arrived!”

Kui Lu’s voice suddenly sounded.
