Chapter 238 Necromantic Protective Wall, an Inherent Flaw in Necromancy
The reason why Kim Dee is being so respectful right now is because of the special circumstances.
Because Kindley lost his permanent defensive field, he was naturally at a disadvantage when facing other formal wizards.
Moreover, Saga is a first-ring crystallized wizard.
Opposite to Saga.
Safi was dressed in a tight-fitting outfit, her fiery red hair styled into a long ponytail.
Standing next to Shafi were Huangtu, Anthony, and Leo.
Sapphire said, "The competition is about to begin. You must perform to your expected standard. I don't care about the result. But if you don't perform to your expected standard, I'll probably remember this someday if I'm in a bad mood."
Sophie's words carried an undisguised threat, and combined with her status as a formal wizard, made the three of them feel a strong sense of crisis.
"Go, don't let me down."
A huge competition venue.
Huang Tu and Nova walked into the competition area from their respective sides.
Leo watched the battle from above, and when he saw Nova, a scrutinizing glint flashed in his eyes.
As Leo's spiritual energy increased and his knowledge as a wizard improved, he became increasingly aware of the extraordinary nature of Wizard Nova.
The wizard Nova suddenly looked up, his gaze meeting Leo's from above.
Nova smiled.
Leo nodded slightly.
Huang Tu's voice suddenly rang out, saying, "Wizard Nova, your opponent is clearly me, yet you're still looking around. It seems you're very confident in your victory."
Nova withdrew his gaze and said, "Yellow Earth Wizard, I always act with respect for my opponent."
Huang Tu said, "Then I'd rather you underestimate me in this match and throw the game so I can win."
Wizard Nova smiled and said, "That's something I can't do. I made a promise with Wizard Kindley that I would help him win this match."
"Then let's begin," Huang Tu said calmly. "Let me experience the strength of the Star Wizard of the Tower of Dawn."
Nova's lower body suddenly turned into a thick cloud of smoke, and then he flew up.
"Is this a necromancy-based flight spell?"
"Right from the start, the wizard Nova presented Huangtu with a difficult challenge."
Everyone was surprised when they saw Nova cast the first spell.
While flight magic itself isn't a particularly rare type of spell, whether or not one has mastered it is a factor that can greatly influence the outcome of wizarding combat.
In the Tower of Dawn, wizards who have mastered necromancy and flight magic are extremely rare.
In this competition where only necromancy can be used, wizards who can use flight spells will have a natural and enormous advantage.
Watching from the sidelines, Kindley couldn't help but clap his hands and shout, "Nova Wizard truly lives up to his reputation as a genius. With him here, we're sure to win this battle!"
On the other side, Safi's expression remained unchanged.
On the field, Huang Tu couldn't help but frown and said, "Wizard Nova, I didn't expect you to have mastered necromancy's flight spells. As expected of the wizard in the Tower of Dawn who has mastered the most spells among wizard apprentices. It seems you can pull out any spell, no matter how unimaginable it is."
Nova said, "It's just that we have a bit too many spells in reserve."
Suddenly, Huang Tu raised his head, looked at Nova in the sky, stretched out his right hand, pointed at Nova, and said, "Wizard Nova, I declare to you that I will be the victor in this competition."
The earthen sorcerer finished speaking.
On the ground, a huge black vortex appeared.
From within the vortex, countless undead hands reached out, grabbing at the wizard Nova.
Although Nova managed to dodge by flying in time, several undead hands grabbed the hem of his clothes.
Then, the wizard Nova remained in a half-squatting position.
These undead hands are composed of gray mist.
But each undead hand exuded a heavy sense of power.
Huang Tu suddenly frowned.
Normally, once this spell is cast, even if it cannot defeat the wizard Nova, it should at least make him fall from the sky.
However, Nova maintained her position in mid-air and was only slightly affected.
Regardless, Huang Tu secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he discovered that his magic could affect Nova.
This made him realize that the wizard Nova was not an invincible opponent.
At this moment, Nova said, "Yellow Earth Wizard, the Netherworld Spell is a spell that uses the spirits of the dead who drowned in water as a medium."
"A person caught by it will experience a feeling of drowning, as if they are suffocating."
"You cast this spell very quickly; it seems you've put in a lot of hard work."
As Nova spoke, a hazy, grayish gas appeared around him.
These hazy gases coalesced into a protective layer, blocking the magic of the loess.
The color of the loess soil changed slightly.
Nova said, "However, this spell has a drawback: it will be hindered when facing the undead."
"Or rather, this is a common problem among necromancers."
"Necromantic spells can ignore everything in the material world. Living things, minerals, liquids, and even gases can be ignored, directly causing contact and interference with the target wizard."
"But if they are the same kind of undead, then they can form an isolation."
Nova said, "Therefore, when faced with necromancy, you can easily defend against it by casting the same necromancy spell."
Sapphire, who was watching the battle, spoke up: "Leo, do you know why not many wizards in the Tower of Dawn are willing to devote their energy to the research of necromancy?"
Leo was watching the match when Shafi suddenly asked him this question. He replied, "Shafi, is it because of the rules and regulations of necromancy?"
Saffir chuckled and said, "The rules and regulations do have an impact, but if the subject itself is excellent enough, then even with the restrictions, people will still flock to learn it."
"The reason why necromancy is not valued by the wizards of the Tower of Dawn is because it has a major flaw. As Nova is saying right now, necromancy can be blocked by the undead."
"Unless it's a physically driven spell like Skeleton Enhancement, all necromancy-related spells can be blocked by the necromancy spell that Nova Wizard is currently casting."
"The real reason why necromancy is not valued is the emergence of this necromancy protective wall spell. When the necromancy combination spells that you have spent a lot of effort learning are easily blocked by a small ordinary spell, it is natural that no one will pay attention to this discipline of necromancy."
"Leo, you might need this later. Once your opponent casts this spell, don't use necromancy to attack. Instead, use your powerful physical abilities to defeat them."
"Safie said, offering a reminder."
