How to deal with remote saturation attacks?

Every experienced player has his or her own approach, but they are all similar. To sum up, it is the following points: find cover, reduce the area under attack (crouching with your head covered to defend, etc.), increase your own defense, etc.

If Beta is still a mercenary or a nobody, rolling and crawling to find cover is the best way, and the latter two are also good. But now that he is the Pope, and being watched by more than two thousand pairs of eyes, it is impossible for him to behave like this. For a pope to behave in such an embarrassing manner, it will definitely severely suppress morale.

So we have to think of other methods.

Fortunately, this is an unscientific magical world, and occasionally some weird methods will appear, such as shadowing, plane avoidance, defense against arrows, etc.

Shadowing and plane evasion are both blood-based abilities and are extremely rare. Defense against arrows is a very common low-level magic, but it has a big drawback, that is, the number of arrows that can be defended is limited.

If you are in a duel, the skill of defensive arrows is simply a nightmare for long-range professions. However, in war, faced with dense and saturated long-range attacks, the ability to withstand the limited number of defensive arrow magic is no match for paper. There's not much difference.

Magicians are the most creative professions. In order to deal with this situation, another kind of magic appeared specifically to deal with long-range physical attacks in war.

Remote attack rebounds!

The invention of this kind of magic was not the protection magic tower that is good at defense, but the plastic energy magic tower that is famous for its offense, which is often called the red magic tower. Those violent maniacs whose mission is to explode B.

As the saying goes, everything must be reversed at its extremes. Because the red magic towers focus too much on attack and don't pay much attention to their own defense, they are easily attacked by others. It's not that they were sneak attacked by assassins. The powerful magicians have very strong mental power. Whether it's shadowing or invisibility, you will feel something when you get close to them at a certain distance.

What they fear most is unexpected long-range attacks, especially arrows without magic power fluctuations. Moreover, high-level long-range professional attackers can use powerful cascading arrows. Even if they use the defensive arrow magic in advance, it will not be of much use. After all, the people in the red magic tower are not specialized in defense. The defensive arrow magic can resist it. The number of arrows is limited, and the arrows with stronger penetrating power cannot be blocked by the people in the red magic tower.

After suffering several big losses, long-range attack rebound magic was created by the people in the red magic tower.

If it is purely defensive magic, there is no difference between long-range attack rebound magic and defensive magic arrows.

But the category attribute of this magic is 'attack magic', and its attribute is fire.

This time the situation is different... The mages of the red magic tower who are good at attacking can easily master this magic to the proficiency level, and this magic can not only be actively cast, but can also be made into magic patterns and passively triggered. Ridiculously strong,

From then on, the people in the Red Magic Tower were no longer afraid of sneak attacks from long-range attacks.

Of course, there are always restrictions on powerful magic. This magic can only be mastered by at least master-level spellcasters. And the most important thing is... the red magic tower has not spread this magic to outsiders.

But in the game, a group of players increased the reputation of the red magic tower to such an extent that they posted the magic modeling on the forum and downloaded it for free to watch.

It was at that time that Beta obtained the magic of rebounding long-range attacks.

The effect of long-range attack rebound is: according to different levels, all long-range physical attacks of a certain intensity in a certain area will be returned to the enemy.

A powerful spellcaster can even maintain this magic for nearly an hour.

Beta is not that powerful. He is just a half-hearted warlock. He can only maintain this magic for about ten minutes at most.

But it was enough... Three magic scrolls were thrown on the ground, and three dark red magic light curtains were blocked in front of the wall. Each light curtain is one hundred meters long, wide and high, protecting the middle three hundred meters of the city wall, which is also the section most heavily attacked by arrows.

The black rain of arrows hit the light curtain, causing dense ripples to appear on the light curtain, like countless raindrops falling on a calm lake.

The thin light curtain swallowed all the long arrows, like a bottomless pit.

The knights who were protected by the light curtain stuck out their heads from behind the wall stacks. They looked at the three light curtains in mid-air and felt very relieved, and their morale improved a lot.

After about a minute, the Ibuganda army stopped shooting. They exerted themselves, and the effect of the shooting was very small. Naturally, they also discovered the three light curtains, and planned to wait for the magic to disappear before attacking again.

But at this moment, Beta's mental power moved, controlling the three light curtains, spraying out all the arrows that had been swallowed, and returning them along the original path.

Just now, Ibuganda shot four waves of arrows. These arrows were absorbed by the long-range attack rebound magic, and then turned into a wave of arrows.

Four in one, the densely packed arrows covered most of Ibuganda's army at once, and then they saw the enemy in the distance, and many of them fell at once, like a black square cake with a few small holes missing.

Many people were killed by arrows, but compared with the number of an army, they were still few.

However, this has a good result. The soldiers on the city wall raised their weapons and shouted cheers. The Pope personally took action to protect his own people and kill the enemy. This will greatly improve the morale of his own side.

There is an essential difference between 'Come on me' and 'Come on me'.

The enemy's morale was greatly affected and they began to retreat.

In the Urgeanda camp, Commander Bram listened to the report from the front line and waved his hand for the messenger to go down.

A young staff officer next to him said: "If my information is correct, what the opponent used just now should be a unique magic that the Red Magic Tower never spreads, 'rebound of long-range attacks', and there are three light curtains at a time, which means that the opponent At least three experts from the Red Magic Tower were invited.”

"This is the holy war of the Vulcan Cult. Why do the people in the Red Magic Tower turn against outsiders?" A middle-aged staff officer on the commander's left was a bit puzzled: "The people in the Red Magic Tower should also believe in the God of Vulcan."

"No, they don't believe in the God of Fire." The young staff officer smiled bitterly: "The real name of the Red Magic Tower should actually be the Plastic Magic Tower. It's just that they like to use flame magic, so people in the world call them Red Magic Towers. They believe in It’s the goddess of magic, Mythra, not the God of Fire.”

The middle-aged staff officer muttered: "The magic world is really troublesome. Why Vulcan allows people who don't believe in him to use magic flames is beyond comprehension."

Commander Bram clapped his hands and asked: "Now it seems that long-range strikes have no effect. Do you have any other ideas?"
