Chapter 314 Bad Luck
The victory of the siege was imminent, and the army of the Subia Demon Kingdom was escaping through the reserved exit.

But Viola's army did not cheer, but instead focused their attention on the sky near the Lookout Fortress.

From the ground, it was difficult to see clearly what was happening. One could only vaguely see two figures wrapped in magical auras entangled in the sky like meteors, and from time to time they would shoot deadly rays and energy balls at each other's faces.

It is difficult for outsiders to intervene in the battle between mages, especially for combat professionals. Once it turns into an aerial battle, they can only watch.

After all, there is no such thing as turning fighting spirit into a horse and flying in the air. No matter how strong a warrior is, if he can't fly, he can't fly. After reaching level 30, mages will gradually expand their battle area to the sky. Those who can become high-level mages are even more experts in air combat.

But to be honest, the situation is still very unfavorable for Oldie.

Ales' level is much higher than Orde's. He is at least level 50, or even above 60. He is already a legendary wizard. One step further, he will enter the realm of demigod. Even in the multiverse world with countless dimensions, he can be considered a top figure.

Although the high-level wizard Orday sounds awesome, in fact, from a global perspective, he has just escaped from the level of small fry.

Although a high level does not necessarily mean high combat effectiveness, the level advantage brings about improvements in capabilities in all aspects.

Ales' spells are more lethal than Orde's, his status spell immunity level is higher, and his defensive spells have better protection effects. In other words, his basic abilities in all aspects are much stronger than Orde's.

Her advantage is that she is young and has a promising future, but she is still in a stage where the payment can be made in installments.

And even if there is no level difference, the Lich still has a great advantage.

Liches are a type of undead creature. They are immune to negative energy damage, mind control, and poison, and are not very effective against cold and acid damage.

Although liches look similar to skeletons, they do not have the skeleton's weakness of being afraid of blunt attacks. The strength of their bone frame far exceeds that of fine steel, so there is no problem of a wizard being weak.

This gives them an advantage in battles between spellcasters.

Because the battle between spellcasters can be simply summarized as a bombardment to see who can break through the opponent's defense first. Generally, after the defense is penetrated, the battle can be ended by a very weak spell hit. The lich has no physical disadvantages, so even if it has no defense, it cannot be solved by just any spell.

Alde's only advantage at the moment is her fighting skills.

Ales is a pure academic. Although he is of high rank and a lich, he actually has very few opportunities to do things himself. When he is in the academic city, he directly commissions adventurers to get whatever research materials he needs.

On the contrary, Olde is too curious and often goes on field trips. Her combat experience and skills are much richer than Ales'.

This is also the reason why she can persist in fighting with the lich. If the two are on the same level, Alde will not be killed instantly, but she will definitely not be able to hold on for long.

Turning around to avoid a ray of negative energy, Aldea, without even looking back, used her staff to move back a little and fired back three bright red scorching rays.

Then she dived downward, seemingly trying to shake Alais off.

The lich didn't care about the scorching rays at all. This level of magic would be absorbed by the spell-nullifying barrier on his body. He followed Oldie and dived forward, trying to bite the other party at the six o'clock position.

He stretched out a finger and pointed it at Orday's back. Magical light gathered at his fingertips, shining like fierce lightning, as if he was preparing a powerful spell.

But almost at the same time as the spell was about to be cast, Ales felt himself hit something transparent.

--boom!

The explosion and flames enveloped the lich in an instant, and a huge fireball with a diameter of five or six meters suddenly ignited in the sky.

Although the lich has many advantages, it is not without disadvantages.

First of all, after becoming a lich, the characteristics of a living person disappear, such as the various resistances possessed by the original race.

Secondly, the lich is an undead creature, and undead creatures are all afraid of positive energy and fire damage.

The range of positive energy is relatively wide, such as sunlight or divine energy. That is, no matter how powerful a lich is, he can easily get himself killed if he basks in the sun.

"Floating booby trap? Where did you learn this thing?"

Alais's skull passed through the flames, looking a little surprised.

In his impression, Orde was a wizard who was good at conjuration and transmutation, had no interest in the school of evocation, and only knew some low-level evocation spells.

However, Alde did not answer him. As soon as the lich left the flame, he saw that the air velocity in the surrounding airspace was increasing rapidly, and two huge tornadoes mixed with snowflakes were rolling over from the left and right sides.

The exploding fireball was torn apart by the tornado in an instant, and Ales flew diagonally upward, trying to escape the killing range before the tornado closed.

Little did he know that his actions were completely within Oldie's expectations.

Just as he was about to fly away from the gap above, a magic circle suddenly lit up there, and a boulder the size of a heavy truck tire rolled out from it. Boulder trap, a classic spell of the Conjuration School.

Even though the lich's bones were harder than steel, it would still be difficult for him to withstand such a huge stone. The defensive spell collided with the boulder, creating a layer of sparks. The lich reached out and grabbed the stone above, and with a thunderous sound, the boulder was split into two.

However, because of this delay, the tornadoes on both sides had already squeezed over, forcibly pressing the lich in the middle, as if he was squeezed between two huge millstones.

But despite hitting the target, the damage caused by Orde's spell to the lich was still very limited. It couldn't even break the lich's magic shield, and could only temporarily immobilize it.

All that was needed, Alday, was to immobilize him for a while.

On the opposite side of the tornado, Aldea made a graceful stop, her fingers constantly changing the casting gestures and she muttered something.

The sound of the spell seemed to vibrate the air, causing visible ripples to appear around it, murmuring a long poem of killing.

The blue gem on the top of her staff emitted an intense white light, and a ball of light was launched out.

The red light in the lich's eyes flickered violently. It was a spell from the Shaping School, Sunfire Explosion.

A moment later, the ball of light hit the lich and exploded one thousandth of a second later.

A huge cross-shaped flash of light fell in the air like a divine sword flying from heaven. It was so bright that it could be seen as far away as Qihang City.

The night sky was illuminated in an instant, and the vibrating energy violently released its authority.

However, amidst the flashing light of the cross, the lich's calm, mechanical voice was heard:
"Bigby's Grappling Palm."

A force field palm flashing with colorful light flew out from inside. Orday had no time to dodge and was caught directly. She was like a figurine and could not move at all.

At this time, the light of the Yangyan Explosion disappeared, and steam could still be seen rising from the lich's body. Many cracks appeared on his bones, which were originally as smooth as jade. The Yangyan Explosion had caused him considerable damage.

But that's about it.

The level gap was too big, and Orday's spell power was still not strong enough. Even when hitting the weak point, it failed to kill the target instantly.

"Let me compliment you a little bit. At least I was definitely not as strong as you when I was your age."

The lich was confident of victory, and he slowly floated towards the bound Oldie.

"You have no chance of winning against me. Even if your Sunburst is effective, I will still come back."

A lich cannot be killed. Even if its bones are crushed into powder, the lich can be perfectly resurrected after a week.

The only way to kill a lich once and for all is to destroy his life box. Otherwise, no matter how many times you kill him, the lich will come back again.

What surprised Ales was that Oldie still didn't show any excitement. Although he knew that Oldie was usually very cold, he was also surprised that she didn't care at all in this situation.

"As expected."

Auldai said calmly:

"I just wanted to test how much I have improved during this period on you. From the beginning, I didn't think I could win."

This made the Lich feel even more surprised. Since you felt you couldn't win from the beginning, why bother fighting?
This is not logical.

The lich's rationality made him not trust emotional impulses, and Alde must have other plans.

This feeling became even clearer when he saw the corners of Oldie's eyes slightly raised. He knew that Oldie would only have this kind of micro-expression when she was in a very good mood.

A strong sense of crisis suddenly flashed through the lich's heart.

"I've had enough fun."

As soon as he finished speaking, the lich's sense of crisis reached its peak, and he couldn't help but look up.

A fist as big as a heavy truck appeared from thin air, and he didn't even have time to dodge before he was hit by the hammer.

Almost in an instant, the lich's bones, which were harder than steel, were shattered, and even the broken bone fragments began to burn. In the blink of an eye, the lich's body disappeared completely, leaving only a tattered robe and a birch staff falling downwards.

"I told you, your luck has never been very good."
