Heroes of Might and Magic: Grand Consul

Chapter 361 The Purification Box

The tower was clearly prepared, and another advanced water elemental master immediately cast an exorcism spell, dispelling all obstacles and buffs on the battlefield.

From a battlefield resource perspective, mana is a crucial factor. Kuraki's faction unleashed a multitude of spells, especially with multiple layers of effects, and there were also obstacle spells on the battlefield. Meanwhile, the tower's side only needed to use a single high-level spell to remove all the buffs, making it an incredibly profitable situation.

As the water rippled, the traps and the wall of fire vanished, and even the distant qi-controlling technique was neutralized.

To the spellcaster's surprise, the anti-magic spell remained intact on the Arcane Prayer, unaffected by the spell.

"It's a spell power boost; the enemy commander has a very high spell power attribute!"

Lisa Dickinson was dumbfounded. She naturally knew the effects of the anti-magic spell enhanced by advanced earth element, but she never expected that her spell power was less than half of the other party's. It was simply unbelievable.

Judging from this, the opponent's spell power attribute should be similar to that of Lord Somra. This would be troublesome. Lisa, as a high-water element hero specially equipped by the Empire, is designed to deal with this kind of situation, clear all obstacles for Somra, and maximize the effect of Chain Lightning.

In fact, this army is well-equipped, not only confident in siege warfare, but also capable of holding its ground in defense, and will not be affected by special enemies.

Unfortunately, Brukan was killed in an attack, and the enemy's magical power was too high. Now only Lord Somra can remove the exorcism spell.

"Step back. Go and heal the soldiers. I'll deal with the enemy's magic resistance."

In the end, Somra had to use his exorcism spell to remove the status effects from all enemies on the battlefield, bringing the Arcane Prayer back into attack range.

Somra had intended to delay a little longer, allowing more time between the two spells, but the situation was urgent. The combined power of the Divine Cannon and the Arcane Prayer was too great, leaving no room for any delay.

In just two rounds of attacks, the defenders on the city wall had been almost wiped out, while the Chain Lightning only took away a hundred or so of the enemy. At this rate, even if Somra had 100,000 men, it wouldn't be enough to kill them.

"Sir, we can't let the other side fire."

The enemy possesses the Phantom Bow, capable of ignoring the city walls and directly killing our defenders. The walls are no longer sufficient to hold them off.

A mage commander stumbled to Somra's side, his head covered in blood and an arrow wound in his arm. Fortunately, he was a commander, or he would have been a corpse by now.

This legion has a high level of combat skill, and they were able to identify the combination of treasures that Ouling possessed immediately.

However, it's not difficult to distinguish them. After all, the arrow disappears in front of the city wall and reappears before the mage's eyes. Only the legendary Phantom Bow can do that.

Looking up again, endless thunder was descending. The powerful lightning magic was no less than chain lightning, only with a smaller range, but the damage was equally astonishing.

"Titan's Arrow! It's with you!"

"I never expected that such a small human lord would possess two such powerful treasures. It seems I underestimated him."

If Su Mu heard this, he would definitely think the enemy was ignorant, let alone two items. If he took out the blood vial of Cedros and summoned Ivan, Kuraki would have a full four sets of combined treasures.

I doubt even the Arcane Empire could produce so many combined treasures.

Of course, given the Arcane Empire's resources, it certainly possesses combination treasures, and even advanced treasures. However, for the sake of balance, major powers often do not give generals the complete set of treasures; they either seal them or give only one component.

Unless a country is on the verge of destruction and there is no other choice, they will not provide full support.

This is the difference between a startup founder and an established business owner; the gap is indeed significant.

Lisa was already struggling to keep up with the rescue efforts, relying on her healing abilities and first-aid tents. She hadn't expected the enemy's long-range firepower to be so intense.

"My lord, we can't keep wasting our time like this. The enemy's crossbows can still fire at least ten more rounds. If we do that, we'll be wiped out." Right now, they can't win the attack, their magic is countered by magic resistance, and even recovery seems a long way off.

Although Sally was unable to dispel the Arcane Prayer, she still tried her best to cast spells to dispel the rest of the enemy forces, making it easier for Somra to cast Chain Lightning.

Even without the Qi Control Technique, Chain Lightning is still quite powerful, capable of inflicting damage on both the Gale Griffin and the strongest swordsman.

But the enemy seems to be able to reincarnate and constantly replenish their forces, much faster than their side.

Even more fatal was that the opponent had been casting magic for so long without showing any signs of running out of mana, which was simply absurd. Especially the blonde woman at the front, who had cast spells repeatedly and even dabbled in all four elements of magic; there was practically no magic she couldn't do.

If we ignore the units on both sides and only look at the heroes, Maggie might be more like the hero of the tower.

By now, the tower troops have been largely suppressed, and Su Mu has perfectly executed his plan.

What's most commendable is that Su Mu, despite having the advantage, didn't engage in reckless fighting. He didn't launch his strongest swordsman to expand the victory just because the city walls were about to collapse. Instead, he fought steadily and waited for the enemy's troops to be completely wiped out.

Somra glanced at the troops that had been preparing behind him and had no choice but to charge forward.

【Divine Spring Lamp Master (Tower Level 5, Tier 2 Unit, Water Element Baptism): Attack 14, Defense 16, Damage 15-18, Health 65, Speed ​​11, Medium Size.

Element: Water; Flying creature.

Prayer to the Divine Spring: Can cast a buff spell on friendly units, with random effects (level 1-5 spells, equivalent to advanced spells), and has a high probability of casting an additional Exorcism Spell (only applicable to the caster).

Blazing Nemesis: A mortal enemy of fire spirits, +50% damage.

Fountain Link: Casts a spell on nearby enemies, causing them to take additional Hydro damage through the Fountain Link (20% damage, up to 5 enemies, stackable, can be dispelled)

Somra possesses the skills of a high-level Genie, which greatly enhances the abilities of gods and monsters, especially their speed, increasing it by 8 points. If the Swiftness Acceleration buff is also taken into account, their speed can reach a terrifying level.

The plan was to take advantage of the enemy's momentary lapse in concentration and launch a surprise attack on their ranged units while pushing forward with ground troops, but it seems that this plan has failed.

But it doesn't matter, Somra has more to rely on than just that.

【Void Purification Box (Level 4 Treasure): When equipped by a hero, it grants +4 Attack. This treasure is stored in the special building Void Wisdom Wall. It grants the Water Elemental Baptism trait to the hero while away for two weeks (duration depends on the building's characteristics). After the duration ends, this treasure becomes temporarily unusable, including its original attack effect.

Divine Spring Bonus: Increases damage chain ability by 10%, and immediately triggers 8 points of fixed damage upon chain break.

The Throne of Wisdom's unique architecture, the Wall of Void Wisdom, can construct treasures exclusive to the tower based on the hero's characteristics. It is said to be a creation of the legendary Void Laws and legendary alchemy, making it extremely powerful.

However, such a powerful building naturally has limitations. The entire building can only hold a maximum of four level 4 treasures and one level 5 treasure at the same time (even if it is taken out, it is still considered a building creation, unless it is completely destroyed).

Somra possessed one of the level 4 treasures, so he decided to activate the Divine Spring Lamp Master to attack Orling's army and ballistae.

In any case, we must destroy the sacrificial ballista first, otherwise this battle will be difficult.

No matter how capable Su Mu is, he cannot revive the ballista through reincarnation.

Just after Lisa cleared the battlefield obstacles, Somra waved his hand, and thousands of Divine Lamp Masters suddenly appeared in the center of the battlefield, rushing into the Arcane Prayer camp with lightning speed and activating the Fountain Link.

A brutal hand-to-hand combat ensues.
