Chapter 871 Super Spellcaster Close Confrontation Form
Of course, subconsciously, Xia Duo is not satisfied with just killing twelve elf mages, or, if conditions permit, he actually wants to meet the elves.

In Xia Duo's view, elves are definitely the great enemy of human beings. As long as he is already a human being and has not changed his racial thinking, many things can be prepared in advance.

Now that the decision was made, Xia Duo put aside all distracting thoughts again and devoted himself to the soul connection.

For a moment, in this state of extreme perception and concentration, his consciousness unexpectedly broke through the limitation of time and space, and surpassed the battlefield with a detached posture.

This is not on the material level, but on the spiritual level. In the link of the collective thinking of all the high-level mages, Xia Duo at this time has already transformed into the collective consciousness of these more than 100 high-level mages, becoming a super spellcaster.

In such a state, the so-called joint spellcasting is nothing more than a natural instinct of this super caster.

The elves attacked again, and they appeared in a strong and domineering posture, just like a giant rushing out of the water. Those elf mages forcibly linked the two spaces together through the ether plane, and the huge energy flow was in the magic net. Agitation flowed behind.

Almost at the moment when he discovered the teleportation of the elves, Xia Duo began to delay the teleportation, and forcibly constructed a 4-ring [delayed teleportation] through the individual operation of the magic net string by multiple terminal high-level mages in the mind link.

Generally speaking, this spell is resident on the caster before the transmission, and it will automatically delay or not intervene after detecting the transmission signal.

If a normal caster starts to cast a spell after sensing the transmission signal, even a person like Xia Duo who is very familiar with and skilled in this spell will have a hard time casting it successfully in time.

But super spellcasters are different. With the cooperation of multiple people, even if they just forcibly knead a spell source point, it is faster than single-player casting.

Of course, all of this depends on the trust of each high-level mage in a spiritual link to Xia Duo. In other words, Xia Duo forcibly exerts influence on the terminal high-level mage through subconsciousness, making them cast spells subconsciously and almost intuitively.

Otherwise, let alone whether the forcible kneading spell can be successful, the delay from Xia Duo issuing the command to the terminal understanding and executing it cannot be bypassed.

In any case, obeying Xia Duo's will, the super caster with hundreds of high-level mages in the soul link as the thread, successfully cast the spell again.

It's a pity that Xia Duo didn't upgrade [Delayed Teleportation] to level 7 or higher. If the spell appeared at level 8 at this time, no matter how loud the elf mages made a fuss, it would be difficult to surpass the level of the spell. delay effect.

For those teleportation spells that are most likely to be level 9 or even higher than level 9, the effect of [Delayed Teleportation] below level 8 can only be said to be better than nothing.

But it is not nothing after all, even if there is only a little effect, the situation is different.

In the eyes of this super caster composed of Xia Duo and nearly a hundred other high-level mages (some of whom are offline), even a little time is enough to make a correct response, so as not to be caught off guard.

At this moment, what Xia Duo needs to do most is - "concentrate the threads"!
Although the scattered high-level mages are still under his command, they are like scattered chopsticks. When it is necessary to fight against the incoming "iron rod", talking about a few chopsticks may be able to delay with skill and space.

But chopsticks and iron rods are in essence difficult to contend with. The chopsticks must be bundled together in order to truly have the strength to fight against iron rods.

Of course, this is only the basis for confrontation in terms of size. Only with this size can we talk about other things, such as skills, experience, and so on.

Xia Duo gave all the high-level mages in the link a transmission order, and he wanted to transmit as quickly as possible without any hesitation.

Even so, there were only more than 20 people who teleported to the place where the elves were about to raid before the elves arrived.

Of course, there are many factors affecting this, the biggest influence of which is the elf itself.

Generally speaking, teleportation is realized with the help of the parallel overlapping state of the etheric plane and the normal plane. Now there are powerful group teleportation spells of elves here, and other teleportation spells are more or less interfered.

But for Xia Duo, more than 20 people are enough for him to build a basically feasible temporary defense.

——【Protection-2-1】

Almost at the moment when the elf teleportation arrived, the human side completed the first protection spell equivalent to the 8th ring, and then it was a direct spell confrontation process.

This is not a normal spell confrontation. In a normal spell confrontation, the distance between the two sides is far away, and the form of confrontation is more in the form of the birth and death of specific spells.

And here, maybe the elves were unwilling to evacuate before, maybe they had an urgent desire to destroy the guiding sign, or maybe it was some other reason.

In short, the elves teleported directly to the vicinity of the guiding beacon, and the two sides were almost at the distance of hand-to-hand combat.

At this distance, the spell confrontation unfolded in another more mysterious form.

……

In the whole process, almost no complete spells appeared, only the leakage of elements and energy caused by the constant competition for the strings of the magic net between the two sides at the level of the magic net.

In the normal world—a certain corner of the green plane forest, various elemental anomalies appear out of thin air in the space, whether it is water flow, or lightning, and so on.

And these visions are not just visions, but the direct manifestation of elements and energies, leading a large number of trees around the beacon to be destroyed by the turbulent flow of these materialized elements and energies.

It even affected both sides of the spell confrontation, but because both sides had protective spells, it did not cause any casualties.

This is the first time Xia Duo has seen such a spell confrontation scene.

At the same time, he finally understands why most spellcasters don't like to cast spells in front of other spellcasters. Apart from the possibility of other spellcasters spying on the details of the spell, they may also be worried about being dragged into this most direct competition for the strings of the magic net. Control spells against spells.

If it's just an individual spellcaster, then if you want to avoid this most direct spell confrontation, the required safe distance for spellcasting is about 10 meters.

Beyond this distance is a normal, relatively complete confrontation in the form of magic birth and death.

But now that the elves are in the joint casting state, Xia Duo found that even if the distance exceeds 10 meters, it is enough to interfere with each other.

This may have something to do with the number of people who cast spells together. Before, the elves were a team of 13 mages. Even if high-level human mages countered spells at the element level at close range, it did not cause any turbulence of elements and energy.

Or, it has something to do with elf spells.
