Chapter 1124 The Power of Magic
Although Cao Pi did not care about Karl's failure and even tried to comfort him, Karl himself was quite dissatisfied with it.
After hanging up the call with Cao Pi, Carl's face became extremely gloomy.
As a rebellious race, the blood elves have inherent insecurity in their hearts. They are very worried that they cannot demonstrate their true strength to prove their own worth.
They had received great favors from Cao Pi, but now they had achieved nothing. This was like a loud slap in the face for them who were already arrogant.
"King..." Carl's personal guard stepped forward, but was interrupted by Carl.
"Prepare the Mage's Ring!" Carl said firmly.
"King, your body..." Carl's personal guards were full of worry. Even in the projection of information from the other world, this kind of mental damage would still have a certain impact on the body.
"No need to say more, this time I will make them understand the wrath of the blood elves!" Carl summoned his elemental elves expressionlessly.
There are many times when, as the king of a tribe, you have to shoulder certain responsibilities.
Following Carl's decision, all the blood elves gathered around Carl, cut their wrists and let the blood flow on the ground.
On the ground, there are intertwined magical patterns engraved, which looks extremely mysterious.
The essence of heaven and earth began to run wild the moment the magic circle was activated. The magic circle absorbed the essence within a radius of dozens of miles around it, and then stored it in the blood of the blood elves. This blood, which was extremely thirsty for magic power (essence of heaven and earth), was the source of the blood elves' pain and also the source of their power.
After Sima Yi's spiritual talent was revealed, Cao Pi used a large amount of money to hire Taoist masters to participate in the creation of related secret techniques, allowing these blood elves to master this power.
The secret magic completely suppressed the side effects of this power to the lowest level. It can be said that except for those warriors, ordinary people of the blood elves are no longer tortured by this power.
The fusion of the two systems produced a wonderful chemical reaction, and Carl also improved the original tribal secret technique, turning the spell ring into a large-scale secret technique.
The blood on the ground became brighter after absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, and gradually the magic circle began to work.
This magic circle was built by the blood elves after the concept of the other world was used. The purpose was to create a large energy source that could greatly amplify the effects of spells.
This is also the general idea on the American continent. Unlike the clouds here which tend to suppress, their power tends to amplify.
Transform mortals into extraordinary people, transform extraordinary people into mortals, and even both sides get something from the other side.
For example, the military formation and the magic formation, the Xuanxiang military formation and the undead sky curtain...
Different power systems, but the final destination still does not leave the foundation of the essence of heaven and earth.
It’s just that the names are different. Magic power, internal energy, cursed power, spiritual power... actually refer to the same thing.
Carl silently raised his hands and began to chant the spell in a low voice. As he chanted, all the blood elves around him began to chant .
The next moment, all the blood rushed towards Carl, and Carl's body was instantly filled with blood-red lines.
This secret method, similar to the body of a god, concentrates the clouds into one point, allowing Carl to use the excess energy of heaven and earth.
"Talak's Skyfall Fire!"
"Haleck's Cremation Spell!"
Through his extraordinary strength, Carl successfully cast two top-level spells even in the American continent.
"Come again? Were they just reconnaissance arrows?" Zhong Hui raised his head in disbelief. In an instant, the danger began to warn him.
This abnormality instantly reminded him of the calibration arrow before the rain of arrows. The position of the calibration arrow was used to determine the force and angle of the attack.
In other words, this attack might be even more terrifying than the previous one.
"Take over the battle, Yu!"
"Zi Xiu, activate your monarch talent. I'm afraid this won't end well!"
Zhong Hui drew his sword, activated his legion talent directly, then turned to Cao Ang and said.
"It seems that my good brother has not been idle all this time!" Cao Ang did not question Zhong Hui's judgment. He directly activated the monarch's talent, and the light blue glow covered all the soldiers in the army.
The effect of Cao Ang's monarch talent is simple and generous. After giving his own things to others, he can provide a gain effect to the person who gets the things. This gain effect varies from person to person.
But generally, the more precious something is, the more benefits it can bring.
Just like the most ordinary soldiers, the money and food rewards they received from Cao Ang could only help them improve their basic qualities and willpower.
But for someone like Zhong Hui, after receiving the treasures bestowed by Cao Ang and the power delegated by Cao Ang, the increase was almost all-round, even the illusory luck could be increased.
"Come on, I want to see what it is!"
Zhong Hui felt Cao Ang's blessing on himself and directly stimulated his legion's talent to the maximum. He had a premonition that this attack would be very powerful.
Then, Zhong Hui saw the source of the danger, a meteorite.
It was not the previous meteorite with a diameter of less than 50 meters, but a huge one with a diameter of more than 500 meters just by visual estimation.
It is unknown from how high a height it fell, but the friction between the meteorite and the atmosphere caused a flame. It is no wonder that this huge meteorite will not only shake the earth but also spread flames around the world the moment it hits the ground.
The kinetic energy of this meteorite falling from high altitude is enough to destroy a city.
When that thing hits the ground, all living things or inorganic matter within the land area surrounding the landing point in miles can feel the Mother Earth letting go, and they will rise directly into the sky and then fall into the arms of the Mother Earth without any protection.
It would be a rare experience, if anyone was still alive and conscious at that time.
What made Zhong Hui even more surprised was that it was not a personal power like Lu Bu's, which could suppress it directly with clouds, but something like a real natural disaster. He was sure that the meteorite was a real entity.
However, when Zhong Hui saw a flash of light, he realized that it was not just a meteorite that fell from the sky.
The sun, which occupies the most eye-catching position in the sky, is releasing a burst of energy towards the earth.
The terrifying fire of heavenly calamity fell from the sky, and the surpassing meteorites, which came later but arrived first, smashed towards the army. The atmosphere was ignited by the highly concentrated energy, and the whole sky was like the setting sun.
"Damn it, what the hell is going on?"
Cao Ang had a bitter look on his face. He had only seen this kind of horrific attack in naval combat footage, but a self-circulating system should not be able to be established on land. How on earth was this done?
"It's just a legion attack relying on an energy source! Your brother doesn't seem as simple as you think. This kind of thing is not the Han Dynasty's system. It should have come from America."
Zhong Hui remained calm and composed. He had seen Han Xin, who commanded a million soldiers, launch a casual attack. Such an attack would be no less powerful than the one before him, and might even be more terrifying.
So he did not waver, but was helpless about this kind of beyond-visual-range attack. When your opponent masters beyond-visual-range missile attack, no matter how powerful your tank is, it is difficult to pose a threat to the enemy.
He had to consider whether this was the other party's last-ditch effort or whether the other party still had some strength left.
“It’s too naive to think you can win by imitating the brilliance and relying on such power!” Zhong Hui sneered, raised the sword in his hand, and then suddenly attacked.
An extremely huge sword energy, like the sun rising from the earth, rushed up into the sky and collided with the falling sun.
"boom!"
Without any surprise, the two terrifying attacks met like a tit-for-tat, producing an immeasurable shock wave.
Immediately afterwards, the meteorite fell and hit the ground directly before the shock wave could spread.
"Everyone take action!"
Zhong Hui gave a loud order. Having just launched a super-large army attack, he was unable to mobilize such a huge amount of cloud energy. He could only try his best to mobilize the cloud energy and empower other people whose internal energy had left their bodies to launch attacks.
Sword energy, knife energy, gun energy, several small and medium-sized legion attacks soared into the sky and flew towards the falling meteorite.
“Boom!”
An explosion like thunder sounded, and the huge meteorite was directly shattered . Then, stones rained down from the sky. Those were fragments of the meteorite that fell after the explosion, densely packed down.
"Yu!"
Zhong Hui struggled to mobilize the clouds to form a defensive barrier, and dense stones hit the barrier.
The barrier didn't last long before it shattered, and rocks fell among the army.
But without that huge mass advantage, the remaining meteorite fragments alone could not cause any terrible damage. It could be said that it was only equivalent to a few attacks launched by a catapult.
After the wind pressure impact ended, Zhong Hui rearranged his troops to make the clouds more defensive.
He was very worried that the enemy would launch such an attack again, so he had to take cover early.
"Report, there are 318 casualties in this attack!" As the battle damage information was reported, Zhong Hui frowned. Although the casualties were not significant, the blow to morale was visible to the naked eye.
Especially the legend involving Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu made many generals and officers show unnatural expressions.
On the contrary, the lower-level officers were not affected too much. After all, defeating the natural disaster was a glorious achievement for them.
"What do you think?" Zhong Hui gave the choice to Cao Ang.
"Needless to say? March!" Cao Ang said firmly, "If I retreat because of such an attack, I will not leave the Cao family!"
There was a certain aura emanating from Cao Ang that made Zhong Hui smile. He liked this about Cao Ang.
"Then let's go!"
After casually launching a legion attack to dispel the sense of surveillance in the sky, Zhong Hui silently adjusted the layout of the array, changing defense to speed. They had to speed up.
On the other side, Carl, who witnessed the army's victory over the natural disaster, was a little dazed.
"Puff!" Carl paid a price for forcibly using a power that did not belong to him. Blood was gushing out of almost his entire body. However, what really made Carl lose his mind was that the secret technique they had worked so hard on did not achieve the expected effect.
It even caused less than a thousand casualties to the enemy.
A hand pressed on Carl's shoulder, and the deep blue light suppressed Carl's injuries.
"Carl, you did a great job!" Cao Pi patted Carl on the shoulder. By observing the secret technique, he felt that he had picked up a treasure.
Carl's move was powerful enough. This was only part of the blood elves' preparation. If he could get involved and improve this set of secret techniques, it would have an even more terrifying effect.
A temporary failure is nothing to him, and what's more, how can this be considered a failure?
0 for 300, no matter from which angle, Carl won a big victory.
"Thank God!" Carl forced a difficult smile. He still couldn't accept such a failure.
"Carl!" Cao Pi patted Carl's shoulder again.
"The Elf Empire, to which the Blood Elves belong, was defeated by the Undead Empire and even had to join forces with the other two empires to remain undefeated. However, the Han Dynasty was able to withstand the attacks of the Undead Empire and destroy the existence of another empire."
"It's not that you are too weak, it's that the Han Dynasty is too strong. You need to discard your past ideas. Just as you blood elves cannot overthrow the Elf Empire, the opponents of the Han Dynasty will definitely not be like the weaklings you have encountered before."
"Although I don't want to admit it, I have to admit that compared to my good brother, I am a little weaker!"
Cao Pi looked far in the direction of Cao Ang and casually said words that horrified Carl.
"My Lord...you..."
"What? Do you think I won't say these?" Cao Pi smiled.
"Karl, you have to understand that reality is reality. It cannot be changed by a few lies. However, being weak does not mean you will lose. The strong have their own way of fighting, and the weak have their own way of fighting."
"That's my good brother. If he was so easy to deal with, I wouldn't have to prepare so hard!"
Cao Pi said calmly, then turned to look at Karl.
"Now, tell me, do you still have the strength to fight?"
"The blood elves are always ready to fight for our lord!" Carl struggled to stand up and said firmly to Cao Pi.
"Hahaha, have a good rest. I will need your strength when the enemy arrives!" Cao Pi left with a big laugh.
"Brother, let me see who among us can win this war!"
Cao Pi thought silently, his heart was not as firm as he appeared.
However, he learned a lot from Cao Cao, and not showing his true feelings was the most important thing he learned from Cao Cao.
"Father, I have never forgotten your teachings to me!"
When Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun appeared in Cao Ang's camp, Cao Pi realized where he had made a mistake.
But he has no room for regret now. There is only one way before him, and that is to win, otherwise everything will be in vain.
