Chapter 30: Siege (2)

"No matter what, they can't attack the top of the Dragon. We have the strongest defensive magic array on the Celtics continent. Even if we have a few times more lich, it is impossible to break through our magic array!"

"Heaven and hell cannot be left to him. As long as we wait patiently, although this time may be long, it will always come. When heaven or hell takes action, it will be the end of the dead!"

The black dragons all think so, even though their morale is already terrible.

The entire Black Dragon Clan was trapped in its own dragon nest, which was probably the first time in history. At the same time, their opponents were still desperately provoking them outside.

Augustberg, the only son of the Great Elder of the Black Dragon, was hung on a cliff opposite the Dragon Top. The lichs used magic to maintain his life, while dismembering them bit by bit. Part of his body was cut off every day.

This is undoubtedly a bloody and cruel scene, enough to destroy the bright image of the Lich King that Gray has portrayed for a long time. However, Ritchie doesn't seem to care. He urgently needs a way to lure the black dragon out. As for what method, he doesn't care much.

Of course, the most important thing is... present, there is no human being that his father has always cared about the most.

However, this provocation can only play a role in hitting the morale of the Black Dragon. Although it did deeply anger the Black Dragon clan, it was obviously not yet at the point where they could forget the dangers they faced and attack rashly.

In this way, the two sides were in a stalemate day after day. After a week, the undead who did not need rest day and night had already built a large number of fortifications outside the Dragon Top.

The deadlock has been formed, but Ricci is not satisfied with just siegeing the Black Dragon clan.

Standing in the blizzard, Ricci asked Brutu: "Is it possible for us to break through the defensive magic array at the top of the Dragon?"

Brutu shook his head and replied, "It's very difficult, at least I haven't thought of a solution yet. This magic array is different from the original magic array in Dragon Valley. It has a magic accumulation mechanism and is very cleverly designed. Even if we bombard it with magic cannons, it is impossible to break through."

"What does it look like?"

"Uh... I'll explain this to you." Brutu placed the drawing he calculated on the "desktop" that had just been chopped out but was already covered with snow. The drawing was almost blown away by the wind. Brutu hurriedly used a magic trick, and after using the shield to create a confined space, there was a moment of peace.

The black dragon on the top of the dragon, the holy spirit of the different dimensions, and the demons in the abyss were quietly watching Ricci's every move. However, Ricci seemed to know nothing, and discussed with Brutu in front of them.

"The magic power released by the magic array will spread evenly on the magic shield at the top of the dragon. When we attack, a depression will form, and then all the magic power will instantly gather at that point to form an extremely strong defense."

"Is it possible for us to break the depression before it forms? It's like breaking glass."

"Impossible." Simon on the other side said: "I guess they had thought of it a long time ago, so outside the real shield, there is a layer of magic that is specifically used for perception. This layer of magic will ensure the formation of depressions. At the same time, its roots are also in the top of the dragon. They are compatible with the defensive magic array and cannot be destroyed."

“Is it possible to ‘deceive’ it?”

"We've tried it a lot and found that it senses the magic required for defense accurately and then controls it to just about ten percent."

"What about exhausting its magic?"

"Well... this is possible in theory. But in fact, it should not be possible." Brutu replied: "We bombarded many times and carefully checked the magic components emitted. We found that only a small part of these magic powers came from the active input of the black dragons. Most of them were actively generated by the magic storage mechanism. We can regard this magic array as a life, a single-function life created by the Black Dragon clan, with an extremely powerful energy storage mechanism. According to the results of our current experiment, we cannot see where its magic is for the time being."

Ricci was silent and quietly stared at the incomplete magic circle drawings calculated by the Lichs. After a while, he asked softly: "Is there no possible way? It cannot be perfect. There is no perfect thing in this world, I don't believe it. So, it always has weaknesses."

The two lichs looked at Ricci in a daze. After a long time, they said, "Well... it is particularly exquisite."

"Exquisite? Is this a disadvantage?"

"Of course, this must be considered a disadvantage." Brutu spread his hands and said, "According to estimates, it consists of at least 15 million spells. These spells are long and short, and all need to be attached to runestones. This means that the entire magic array will be very large. I am not talking about its effective range, I am referring to its 'core'. It is very large and very fine. At least five million runestones are required. In fact, we can do this thing, and it will not be difficult. But we have never heard of any lich who makes such a thing. Why?"

"Why?"

"Because it takes a very long time. If you make such a magic circle, it will take at least 10,000 years if you do it by a single lich. If you don't care about anything, just make this magic circle. No matter how powerful the lich is, it will take at least 10,000 years. And the second question, this magic circle will be very impractical."

"I don't understand." Ritchie hesitated, "Uncle Brutu and Uncle Simon just said it was almost impeccable, and now he said it is not practical?"

"It... cannot move. Yes, it cannot move." Brutu replied: "Because it is too complicated, it is best to put it in one place and don't touch it. Otherwise, it is easy to cause failure. Do you understand what I mean? A grain of sand falls into the magic circle and a gust of wind blows, which may cause it to malfunction. I guess they must have set up a lot of magic circles in the center of the magic circle to protect it. In addition, because of the too complicated relationship, once the magic circle fails, it may take a long time to repair it. Maybe it is fifty years, maybe one hundred years. It may not be difficult to repair the faulty circle, but it will be very difficult to find the cause of the fault. The time required may be thousands of years."

Ricky was stunned.

Simon, who was standing beside him, rattled and laughed: "Actually, I've seen something similar."

"Where did you see it?" asked Brutu.

"In the abyss, they have something similar, and it's bigger and more complicated than this. I guess their magic circle requires at least one billion spells. It's a very terrible project. It's said that it took more than 20,000 years to build it. In the end, even the builder himself couldn't figure out when it could be used and when it couldn't. Once there was a breakdown, they would try it by intuition, which might take tens of thousands of times to fix it. However, this is better than spending thousands of years to carefully check it. Of course, I don't know when that thing can be used."

"Gaga, then what's the use of this kind?"

"I don't know either, maybe they think it's fun."

"Maybe we can find someone to destroy it inside, so it should not be difficult to destroy it. But how to get in? It would be great if the black dragon could also produce some traitors."

The two heartless lichs just got into chatting.

Ricky turned his face and looked at the Dragon Top. After a while, he suddenly turned around and said, "I know what to do."

"You know?" Brutu was stunned.

Simon asked quickly, "Who did you think of helping us get in and destroy it?"

"No, we don't need to go inside, we can destroy it outside." As he said, Ritchie turned and left.

Two lichs left confused.

Also confused are the black dragon, the Holy Spirit, and the demon.

"Do you think he has found a solution?"

"This is impossible. How could he find a way so quickly after we spent so much effort to build the magic circle? This guy is very cunning, maybe he hopes we think he has a way and then risk his attack."

"I think so too. We can't be fooled again!"

I don’t know how the Holy Spirit and the Devil think, but at least the Black Dragons think so.

...

That night, Ricci showed his fangs again.

The undead legion that was originally motionless as if dead was dead was all mobilized. Yes, all of them were as many as millions of undead. This is an extremely terrifying number.

They began to build buildings outside the Dragon Top, which was as large as a city-state.

At first, the Black Dragons thought Ricci was desperate and prepared to be on the spot forever. However, they soon found out that they were wrong.

Two days later, the "city-state" with a huge scale but extremely rough workmanship was completed. The black dragons suddenly discovered that this was not a city-state, but a huge factory.

The undead dig and mine on the spot. A large amount of ore was sent to the factory. When it came out, it had turned into tools of all sizes. Then, these tools were sent to the soldiers of the Undead Legion, and they began to dig up on the ground frantically.

All the undead were involved. Skeleton soldiers were the main force, spiders were responsible for crafting ropes, and undead giant elephants were responsible for transporting... They fought day and night.

The black dragons stared at each other with a gap.

Day 1:

"What do they want to do?" asked the black dragon.

"Who knows? Maybe it's about building something. No matter what they build, they can't break our magic circle."

the next day:

"Do you think their project is a bit messy, and I can't even see the shape. Is it because the things built by the Undead Legion are particularly bad?"

Day 3:

"They just kept digging? Could it be that they wanted to dig an authentic tunnel in?"

"It's useless. There are defenses underground. The ground cannot enter, and the ground cannot enter."

Day 4:

"No! They want to dig the entire Dragon Top!"

Suddenly, the entire Black Dragon Clan was panicked, and even the Jinlong, who had been watching the show next to him, was stunned.

Both the Holy Spirit and the Demon were stunned.

Yes, that's what Ritchie thinks.

As long as it is a mountain, you can dig it down. If the entire mountain is dug down, will the magic array inside no longer exist?

Other races may not be able to do it, but for the undead who have huge military strength and sleeplessness, as long as there is enough time, it is obviously not a problem.

If you can’t dig it in a month, then dig it for one year! If you can’t dig it in a year, then dig it for ten years! If you can’t dig it in a decade, then dig it for one hundred years!

There will always be a day when the dig will collapse.

Standing on the cliff, Ricci looked at the Dragon Top and shouted: "Dear Black Dragon Elder, I will not leave here until I avenge my father. I will hollow out the foundation of the entire Dragon Top little by little, which is expected to take one year. In a year, the entire Dragon Top will collapse, and your magic circle will be scrapped. You can enjoy the last year of the Black Dragon clan. Or you can also remove the magic circle and come out and fight me happily. However, I don't think you have enough courage."

The strong wind blew past Ricci with snowflakes. A faint smoke floated out of his eyes and pulled a long arc in the air. He said word by word: "You! All the black dragons! All the ones will die!"

Augustberg's blood flowed down the rock wall of the cliff bit by bit, and the black-haired dragon girl was hung beside him.

The lich cheered "rattle", and the sound was like a wailing ghost.

The entire Black Dragon Clan was shocked.

The Black Dragon Elder widened his eyes, and the corners of his eyes twitched suddenly, twitching violently.

Obviously, this enemy is not only cunning, but also extremely crazy, and will never give up until the goal is achieved.

...

"I already like this little guy a little, especially in our hell style. It seems to be a little stronger than our style. Hahaha." In the abyss, a demon sighed softly: "If it weren't for his father, I think he would be the best demon envoy. Did we put anything in his soul when we created him? I remember it didn't."

"Yes, no." The other demon replied, "We did nothing, this is his instinct."

"In this situation, we should have attacked immediately to help the Black Dragon clan. But now I think we should re-evaluate it. Maybe it's not bad for us to hand over Celtics to him. At least it's better than handing over to heaven, right?"

"But he could not have crossed the circle his father had set for him. As long as he was still in that circle, what he preached was justice and the holy light. Even though he was in a state of hostility with heaven."

"At least we shouldn't interfere with him, right? If we have to do it, let heaven do it. Under his leadership, these lichs are already crazy. The price they pay will not be small if they want to defeat him."

"I agree, too. I'll hold it in, and see who can't hold it in the first place. I don't believe that the old guy in heaven will do nothing."

"I agree, too."

...

At this moment, there is still silence in the vast white holy light of the different dimensions.
