Standing at the edge of the woods and looking at the castle not far away, the mage whose apprentice was captured was silent. Carriages and horses were coming in and out of the open gate. Soldiers were standing guard on the city wall every few steps. There were even catapult towers set up at a certain distance.
For a viscount, such a castle was beyond the norm. All the signs pointed to one thing, the owner of this castle was very rich, and perhaps also very powerful. Because in the aristocratic society that was very particular about class, to have this kind of financial resources and not be swallowed up by the superior aristocrats, either the owner had an extraordinary background or a strong backer.
The Lich, who was a step behind, didn't hide her footsteps at all. She stood next to Lin, looked in the same direction, and asked: "What's your plan?"
Just as he was about to answer, Lin turned his head to look at a certain Lich, but was taken aback. "Hmm, you're going to participate in the big bye?"
It could be said that Fen wore all of her belongings on her body. Four magic guns, machetes, and battleship cutting swords, these weapons didn't need to be mentioned. Riding boots, a cloak, a large pointed mage hat, and the black cheongsam she wore inside, the several completely different styles combined together gave off an indescribable sexiness.
In particular, the seemingly plain magic equipment was actually composed of countless ant-sized secret runes. Fusing the knowledge of programming languages, as well as learning from someone, the magic tower construction technique used in combination without interfering with each other – in fact, it was the design method of circuit boards. According to her, this was already more luxurious than when she was in her heyday as a demon king.
The rarely seen fully armed Lich ignored a certain person's teasing and asked again: "How are you going to save them?"
"Hmm, go in, find them, and leave."
…
Fen rolled her eyes at a certain person, as if to say that even if you ask a pig, the pig will give a better answer.
Giving up on continuing to ask, Fen pulled out the twin guns at her waist, walked out of the forest, and appeared in front of the defenders in a threatening manner. Naturally, it brought chaos to the alert castle. Everyone outside the castle rushed into the castle. There was also a commotion on the castle wall. Countless soldiers ran and arranged themselves behind every battlement.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute." A certain person hurriedly followed and shouted at the Lich walking in front: "I promised someone not to kill anyone. If you go in like this, even if you didn't intend to do it at first, you will be forced to do it in the end. "
Fen, who stopped, didn't look back and said in a dissatisfied tone: "You said it yourself, go in and find them. Besides, I promised you not to kill, I didn't promise that kind of thing. "
"If you agree, then you agree, you agree. It's not fun to play this kind of game where I agree but you don't. Seeing a certain lich glaring at him, Lin hurriedly changed his words. "Of course, I can't agree on your behalf. But there's a simpler solution. There's no need to make it so complicated. "
"How is it simple?"
"Go in and find them......
.. of it, I I......
"Hmm, there really doesn't seem to be anything different. .......... ........................
................
. "" I just want to save people. Anyone who gets in my way will be fine as long as they don't get in my way. Although you also want to save people, it seems like you want to send everyone who gets in your way to hell so that they can't get in your way anymore. That is the difference between you and me. Also, if you charge in front, you will hinder me. That is very troublesome. "
"Speak human!"
Although the certain Lich didn't use the Anti-Battleship Blade in her hand, she had already raised it high and was ready to chop someone's head. Lin hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Wait, wait. Watch how I do it first, then you can decide what to do."
The two hadn't reached a consensus yet when a few arrows hit the ground around them, making a thudding sound. There was even one arrow that accurately hit someone's head, but the moment before it hit, a flash spell was cast and the arrow was thrown to an unknown place.
In fact, the two of them were still quite a distance away from the castle. To be able to shoot arrows to their position, not only did the bow have to be good, the arm strength also had to be good. There was even an arrow that almost hit someone. It seemed that there were still talents in the castle.
Putting the Anti-Battleship Blade back on her back, Fen took a few steps back and waited for someone to take action.
Perhaps the other side had also discovered that ordinary arrows posed no threat to the two mages at such a distance. Therefore, even if they could shoot accurately, the other side didn't shoot a second arrow.
"Watch." Lin faced the castle and gestured with his hands, one in front and one behind, as if he was measuring something. Suddenly, he stretched out his right hand and flicked his finger. "Go!" The gate to Viscount Bachman's castle disappeared.
Strictly speaking, there was still a remnant of an arc at the base of the gate. And this arc extended to the wall, including the surrounding buildings and the ground. It looked like a sphere of space had disappeared directly.
Lin sighed and shook his hand. "It doesn't feel as troublesome as I thought."
It wasn't just the people in the castle. The guards on the city walls were also panicking. Even Fen, who was behind them, revealed a look of surprise. "This … is a dimensional banishment spell? This doesn't count as murder? "
"Of course. Has anyone died in front of you? They have a chance of surviving in other places. Who knows, they might even have a fortuitous encounter and have great achievements in martial arts or something. "
Fen pouted and said sourly, "Yes, what a kind heart. I really want to know who the person playing with words is. "
After the first experience and after confirming that it was feasible, the following actions were rather simple for a certain someone. With a wave of his hand, the spatial spheres disappeared one after another. Like an invisible giant beast, they gnawed at the city walls on both sides, leaving holes and scars. Even the trebuchet towers, which seemed to be very threatening, disappeared completely before they could even fire a single projectile.
Lin said, "This isn't because there was a large-scale battle a while ago. The dimensional banishment spell wasn't useful, so I've been thinking of ways to improve it."
"Do you mean to locate an individual other than 'me'?" Fen, who had instantly returned to her research state, pointed out the biggest flaw in the use of Blink.
As a Demon King who once ruled over an entire era and a Lich who possessed top-notch magical knowledge, Fen wasn't able to cast the Dimensional Banishment Spell, a variant of Blink. The biggest reason why she couldn't do so was because she couldn't locate any target other than herself.
This involved the transformation of the coordinate system, which was the most computationally intensive type, the shift of the origin. Once the origin was changed, the coordinates of almost everything had to be redefined. This included distance, angle, and so on. Although she could use the original origin, which was her own position, to triangulate and obtain a more accurate result, the relevant calculations had to be completed in an instant. This was a calculation obstacle that Fen couldn't break through until now.
Although Lin could do this in the past and cast the dimensional banishment spell, there were still limitations in its use. If the target moved too fast, it might escape from his grasp, just like when Sputnik 1 fell from the sky.
Using the dimensional banishment spell consecutively wasn't as easy as flashing continuously. There was a certain interval between each use. When there were few enemies, this interval could be ignored. However, when there were a large number of enemies and they might pose a threat in an extremely short period of time, instead of using the dimensional banishment spell to throw the enemies into unknown places one by one, it was better to flash and jump out of the battlefield to take a breather.
Secondly, only one object could be banished at a time. This object could be in a state where several things were tied together, but as long as they were separated from each other, it was impossible to banish a group of objects in one go. To put it simply, the Dimensional Banishment Spell wasn't a good defense against attacks like the rain of arrows.
If he was alone, he could choose to flash out of the range of the arrow rain. But what if there were others? It would be a great consumption for someone to flash away with someone other than himself. Then, what was the maximum number of arrows that he could throw away in an extremely short period of time? Lin hadn't figured out the answer to these questions yet.
All kinds of problems that were exceptions in the original design plan made someone constantly think of solutions. In the end, he learned something. "To put it simply, don't think about changing the coordinate system. Instead, change from the original calculation method of the relative coordinate system to the calculation method of the absolute coordinate system. And to do this, you have to have an accurate grasp of all the changes around you. "
While he was having an academic discussion with Lich, the two strolled leisurely towards the castle. And all the people, dogs, and horses that could move would be mercilessly banished the moment they appeared in sight. If there were too many people, the entire spherical space would be banished.
After trying it out a few times, Lin complained, "Although it's much faster to define the center of the sphere and then use the radius to define the range, it's still a little difficult to pinpoint the boundary."
"Be content. If I had this ability back then, I wouldn't have to think of ways to stare at the Old Gods all day long and chase after them. I'd kill anyone who got in my way with jealousy. "Fen saw someone rushing out of the castle with a crossbow. She had just raised her gun and the person had disappeared … It made her want to greet the person next to her with the butt of her gun.
However, someone was seriously thinking and didn't look in the direction that the person had run out of. Such an attitude made Lich feel very helpless. Just as he said, there was no extra trouble when he walked in and looked for the person.
"Seriously speaking, the Dimensional Banishment Spell is just to move an eyesore away from you. If the grudge is really deep, would you choose to tear him into pieces with your own hands, shatter every inch of his bones, bleed to the last drop of his blood, and watch him take his last breath with your own eyes? Or would you just make him disappear from your sight? "Someone casually agreed with the Lich's words, even though it sounded like he was trying to undermine him.
