Ainphent's eyes lit up when he saw Sarlin release the water current. Sarlin actually had such a mysterious thing! He didn't know what Divine Fusion was, but he knew that this water current had at least the attack power of a level-four spell, yet it didn't consume any of Sarlin's physical strength or Magic Strings.
Strictly speaking, Ainphent wasn't a powerful person, but a person's abilities determined the type of friends they liked. If Sarlin was mediocre, Ainphent would probably leave after arriving at the city base. Ainphent wasn't jealous of Sarlin's mysterious ability. Instead, he was very pleased. He would have someone to compare himself to in the future. He considered himself a genius and felt that everyone around him was mediocre. Having a friend like Sarlin gave him a strong motivation.
He wanted to surpass Sarlin and become a Magic Shooter before him!
Sarlin then released his Water Flame, followed by Snow Kill, a spell that surpassed his level. In front of the ice castle, four tornadoes formed by snowflakes twisted towards the Headless Horsemen.
The originally light snowflakes condensed into small sharp knives under the effect of magic, wrapping around the Headless Horsemen and slashing them wantonly. If this was a team of human knights, Sarlin's magic could destroy at least one-fifth of them. That was because the tiny snowflakes had six sharp horns that cut the knights' bodies at a rapid speed. If it were a human, they would instantly lose their ability to fight due to excessive blood loss. If their vital parts were injured, they would die immediately.
The freezing ability of a level-six spell was also abnormally terrifying. Swordsmen with strong sword aura and poor defense would also freeze their blood. Even if the spell's effect was short, a stagnation of blood for half a minute was enough to be fatal.
The Headless Horsemen were cut all over, and their metal armor immediately became tattered. Now, the spears of the pirates could easily find an entry point on it. Sarlin didn't think that one spell could destroy all the Headless Horsemen. After all, this spell only consumed the level-five Magic Strings. Releasing four of them repeatedly, Sarlin felt that a tenth of his mental strength had been consumed.
To control this kind of spell that was released simultaneously, it would consume more than ten times the usual amount of mental strength. Sarlin was a level-five Mage, which showed how strong his mental strength was.
Daniel, who was behind the city gate, suddenly patted Peuuce's middle head. Peuuce raised his upper body, and three of his heads popped out of the wall. Gray light gathered on his six horns, and he released three spells at the same time.
The aura of death swept across the Headless Horseman's team. Wherever the gray light passed, everything was corroded. His attack this time was even stronger than Salin's. At least 15 Headless Horsemen were blasted into pieces by this attack, and they could no longer be pieced back together.
After Peaches finished his attack, he quickly laid on the ground and rested. It had now recovered its power to the peak of level-seven. Due to Daniel's restriction, its magic casting ability was not enough, but its physical strength had been completely restored.
Amidst Daniel's undead flames, the three Monarchs unhappily helped Petheus recover his magical abilities. This was because if they didn't help, Petheus would absorb energy from the Undead Flames. This energy would either be supplied by the Three Sovereigns or absorbed from the Undead Plane through the Plane of Existence's coordinates.
If Petheus was absorbing energy from the Undead Plane, that coordinate might attract the attention of creatures from the Abyssal Plane. At this moment, the three Sovereign Kings were a little angry. The worms outside had still brought trouble to the three of them.
They didn't want to do anything at the moment, but they had to help a low-level undead like Petheus.
In fact, Peaches was a high-level undead, but in the eyes of the Three Monarchs, all undead were low-level. Their target was Shang Lan, the former master. Only an existence like that could be considered high-level.
"Those damned things, I'm going to go out and tear their souls into pieces!" Banchagana roared.
"Banchagana, don't be anxious. Let Salin be busy. We can still afford to pay for such a small amount of consumption. That undead won't dare to ask for too much from us. Just scare him a little. "After saying this, Judy fell into deep thought again. He was still fantasizing about how to turn Ainphent into his summoned creature.
Banchagana closed his eyes angrily. He was thinking about when to suddenly appear and kill all the people outside so that they wouldn't be harassed and annoyed.
After a few rounds of magic attacks, the Headless Horsemen's charge slowed down. Ainphent finally made his move. He opened his mouth and spat out a ball of Commander's Flame. After this Commander's Flame was spat out, it landed outside the wall and melted into the snow in the blink of an eye.
Then, a gray sprout quickly grew out of the snow. It absorbed the soul energy emitted by the dead Headless Horsemen and grew wildly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Compared to other spells, Ainphent's plant undead spell was too slow. However, he was on the defensive side of the wall. He just needed to control the rhythm and didn't need much speed.
The dead Headless Horsemen provided enough nourishment for this undead plant. In the blink of an eye, it had grown to more than ten meters tall.
The soul flames in Peaches' three heads swayed at the same time. He felt fear. Ainphent's undead spell was extremely rare even in the Undead Plane. That kind of tree seemed to have gone extinct in the Undead Plane.
A huge undead bird flew down from the tree and pounced at the Headless Horsemen. The Headless Horsemen had wanted to charge the wall of the ice castle, but they were blocked by the tree. They tried to go around it, but the undead bird pounced on them. The few Headless Horsemen immediately stiffened and fell off their horses.
The skulls of the headless horsemen who had fallen off their horses broke into pieces. The souls inside also turned into fragments and were quickly absorbed by the tree.
The pirates immediately cheered. Salin knew that all spells had to be balanced. This undead plant could absorb soul energy, but it definitely wouldn't last long. It was like a demon wolf that could attack a flock of sheep, but it wouldn't eat all of them.
Relying on soul fragments as nourishment, this undead plant was indeed powerful. However, its appetite couldn't be unlimited. When it was full, the snowmen would attack.
Ainphent's expression was calm. His two summoned creatures, like Salin's water, didn't consume the energy of his undead flames. Even if the two summoned creatures were tired, he didn't lose the ability to fight. A necromancer's magic power came from the undead flames. He hadn't released a single undead spell yet. If he wanted to escape, he had enough energy to squander.
Seeing that Ainphent's spell was effective, Salin immediately cooperated and began to release icicles. This time, he didn't kill the Headless Horsemen in a large area. Instead, he used a second spell, stacking icicles and shooting accurately.
This level-two spell couldn't kill the Headless Horsemen. It could only slow down their movements. Once the Headless Horsemen slowed down, Ainphent's flesh and blood undead pounced more accurately and easily.
In the blink of an eye, Salin had released more than a hundred icicles. Every three icicles could stop a Headless Horseman for a second. Another forty or so Headless Horsemen were pounced on by the undead, and their soul fragments were absorbed by the undead plant.
Daniel was shocked. Such a powerful undead summoned creature was much more powerful than his Peuchous. Ainphent could remain undefeated even if he met a level-six Magician. Unless he met a Magic Shooter, his summoned creatures could take care of everything.
The undead flew as fast as lightning. Each time it pounced, it only left an afterimage in the air. The Headless Horsemen, hindered by the icicles, couldn't dodge at all.
Seeing this, Zola was greatly reassured. Salin and Ainphent's magical abilities were beyond his imagination. This way, he didn't have to spend too much energy protecting them, and he could kill more enemies. His swordsmanship was best at attacking. If Salin and Ainphent's magical attacks weren't strong enough, he would have to stay by their side and wouldn't be able to fully focus on the battle.
"Zola, don't go." Salin saw through Zola's thoughts and stopped him. The Headless Horsemen weren't easy to deal with. Salin and Ainphent were both familiar with the fighting style of black Magicians and had done research on such enemies. They were also level-five Great Magicians. If Zola really went to kill the enemies outside the wall, he would be surrounded by the Headless Horsemen. Even if he was a Black Iron Blademaster, he wouldn't be able to kill many enemies.
"Sir!"
Zola called out unhappily. Salin said, "There will be more enemies waiting for you tomorrow. Watch first and familiarize yourself with these things.
Salin didn't care about Zola's objections. He had to continue advancing tomorrow, and he might encounter more Black Puppets and Headless Horsemen. At that time, without the ice castle to rely on, the usefulness of a Blademaster would show.
Boom!
The Headless Horseman threw a meteor hammer through the air and smashed it against the ice wall. This time, it smashed a hole more than a meter deep in the ice wall. Salin's expression didn't change. He casually released a spell and filled the hole.
In the current environment, water magic could play a powerful role, and the consumption was also lower than usual. Salin wasn't worried about the opponent's human wave tactic. Anyway, the snowmen were very slow. If they were blocked by the wall, even the pirates could use their spears to kill them at will. As long as the Headless Horsemen were dealt with and the horses of the Headless Horsemen didn't jump over the wall, the battle would end with victory.
This was the power of magic. It could use the environment, the weather, the seasons, and everything else!
According to the usual classification, Salin and Ainphent's level was at most equal to a beginner Blademaster. But in a real battle, the two of them played a greater role than the powerful Blademaster Zola.
"Salin, it's about time." Ainphent said and stopped commanding the flesh and blood undead to fly back to hide in the dense foliage of the plant undead. The plant undead had grown a lot taller, and in front of it were more than two hundred Headless Horsemen with their heads broken.
The remaining Headless Horsemen seemed to have heard something and began to retreat. The snowmen coming from the direction of the hills had arrived. They moved slowly and surrounded the ice castle.
