Global Lord: Start with Divine Favor-Chapter 866 - 167: Battle Plan (Part 2)

At this moment, Gulian spoke up, confrontationally saying, "This problem isn't too big. After all, he's only immune to targeted skills, but he can't be immune to area control. Our academy has researched an enchanted item, the Meteorite Hammer, which can directly summon a meteor, causing a stun to all enemies within a region. As the massive meteor crashes down, the shockwave will stun everything within tens of thousands of meters."

Gulian proposing this item was clearly in response to the Elf Empress's deterrence.

You have a vast number of assassins, and I have magical items. This Shadow Sky Curtain won't allow the use of skills, but it shouldn't also forbid the use of enchanted items, right?

What is our greatest advantage against the Shadow of Evil in this battle?

It is having a huge array of powerful items. If this Shadow Sky Curtain doesn't allow us to use skills, it would be like crippling ourselves and erasing our greatest advantage.

But what can one say? Gulian's ideals are bountiful, but reality is rather harsh.

Nancy asked, "Do you want to look at its first attached trait?"

[Three Feet of Ice · Legendary Trait: It takes more than one cold day to freeze three feet of ice. The Valkyrie becomes the Master of Ice, and her presence fills the surrounding space with coldness and calm. From the start of the battle, the Valkyrie gains accumulative ice energy. Every 10 seconds, she gains an ice phoenix layer equivalent to 1% of her Life Value. While the ice phoenix exists, her Attack Power increases by 1% every 10 seconds, and Damage Reduction also by 1%. When the ice phoenix is shattered, all enhancement effects vanish. When the Valkyrie's Life Value falls below 50%, it triggers intense cold in the surrounding area, freezing enemies and slowing their movement and attack speed proportionate to her lost Life. The Valkyrie possesses extremely high resistance to negative states in cold environments, reducing the duration of negative states by 99%.]

"I don't know how long the stun time of your Meteorite Hammer is, but if it reduces 99% of the duration, do you really think it can control her?"

Rose felt exasperated and asked, "Why do you collect so many random traits? Isn't this just adding to our troubles?"

Lin Rui shrugged, saying, "How could I have foreseen this moment? Back then, to defeat Setra, it was certainly all efforts towards that goal."

Furthermore, when you get down to it, wasn't the current situation also because your elves preserved strength and refused to directly take action to resolve Setra?

If you elves had directly eliminated Setra, wouldn't there be none of these issues now?

But the question returns to its essence: Without this Shadow of Evil, how would the Empress's ambition be realized?

So whether there is a Shadow of Evil or not, in the end, there will likely be such a storm.

At least now, with this Shadow of Evil, we have some understanding, which is a comparatively decent situation.

To decide how to handle this trait, the Elf Empress took initiative to say, "The elves will provide a batch of Divine Artifact: World Vine."

[World Vine: Mythical Artifact]

[Vines derived from the World Tree's roots possess strong clinging abilities. Once entwined by the World Vine, it is difficult for humans, animals, or other beings to break free.]

[Trait 1: Panyi Root: Upon contact with the ground, it continuously absorbs earth energy, strengthening itself with an indestructible trait.]

[Trait 2: Mysterious Seal: When it adheres to the surface of an object, it releases a mysterious force that completely immobilizes and seals the target's actions while protecting the target from external interference and damage.]

[Trait 3: Earth Vein Burst: Using this Mythical Artifact, it can activate the earth vein. The surging green spiritual light greatly enhances Jilun Wind, systematically boosting the effects of Life Magic within the area.]

Everyone's expression shifted; the World Vine, this Divine Artifact, was evidently extraordinary.

The most concerning thing was its quantity!

A nearby attendant brought over twenty pieces of the sparkling green Divine Artifact at once.

This was clearly not bestowed by the Divine Spirit, but produced by the elves themselves!

A force capable of producing Divine Artifacts on its own! Terrifying no matter how you look at it.

Lin Rui was very sure of this judgment because the third trait of this Divine Artifact, the Earth Vein Burst, clearly comes from the elf's Elemental Keystone, the Earth Vein Crystal Core!

The vines of the World Tree, undoubtedly mythic-level materials, can have extremely potent effects even without much processing or treatment.

Under the influence of the Elemental Keystone, transforming into a Mythical Artifact is not surprising.

What remains uncertain now is just how many of these Mythical Artifacts the elves possess!

Gulian asked, "Is the elf's combat strategy to use this Mythical Artifact to restrain the creature?"

"No!" Yunning immediately denied, saying, "This is to reinforce the Shadow Sky Curtain, and the target isn't Blood Shadow, but yourselves."

Not the Shadow of Evil?

Lin Rui reacted immediately. The elves clearly had a fixed approach.

Lin Rui remembered seeing elven troops cooperate to instantly build defenses and lines in the past.

Elves are very adept at using trees to build fortifications, fending off powerful attacks.

The usage of this World Vine is the same; its purpose isn't to bind the Shadow of Evil but to bind themselves, constructing an indestructible solid barrier to withstand the Shadow of Evil's frenzied attacks.

After all, the Shadow of Evil's uncontrollable Clear Heart Mirror state only lasts for 6 seconds.

Elves cannot directly confront unpredictable enemies but instead first establish their own defenses.

'Those skilled in battle prepare to be invincible first,' in anticipation of the enemy's vulnerability.

Lin Rui immediately flipped through the battle deployment and realized the second chapter of the elf's plan was indeed named [Sword of Invincibility].

To put the Shadow Dance team in an indestructible, invincible state.

If the Divine Spirit doesn't reveal its health bar, it is invincible. The same goes for the Mythical Artifact, when you cannot break it, it is invincible as well.

Gulian became serious and asked, "Is this Sword of Invincibility scheme reliable? The creature's counterattack will inflict all the damage it withstands, which implies if its Life Value is very low, the damage to us could be close to a billion points."

Yunning calmly replied, "Then you can take one back and let the Ancient Saint Great Mage test it."

This was the first time Lin Rui saw a cold gleam in the eyes of this usually undisturbed Great Mage, who coldly stated, "I will!"

"You elves are also sparing no expense to deal with this Shadow of Evil!"

Yunning said calmly, "Eradicating threats, every force would do the same."

"Hmph!"

Rose quietly glanced at everyone around the conference table, always feeling they seemed to speak in hidden meanings, yet also seemed to be engaged in intense conflict, yet the target of the conflict certainly wasn't discussing how to eliminate that Shadow of Evil!

Vaguely, she sensed these individuals seemed to be threatening each other, harboring schemes, but she truly couldn't comprehend what it was all about.

She could only nudge Lin Rui beneath the table, hoping he would give her a hint.

But Lin Rui paid no attention, feeling he might have been too simplistic in his thinking at first!

Did the Empress really reveal this artifact to deal with the Shadow of Evil?

Unable to figure it out, Lin Rui could only await the test results from the Ancient Saint. If the Ancient Saint cannot break through this Mythical Artifact, it can be deduced that the Shadow of Evil cannot either.

Then this plan seems a bit too simple!

In an invincible state, they can teleport to the Shadow of Evil's side and swiftly defeat it.

Nancy was also puzzled, asking, "According to this battle plan, the elves handle almost all aspects, leaving our forces to do what?"

"Provide manpower!" Yunning replied calmly, "Even the Sword of Invincibility must be able to sever this Shadow of Evil."

"I hope you can send your strongest together with the elven Master of the Wild Hunt into the Shadow Sky Curtain to kill the Shadow of Evil."

Gulian angrily exclaimed, "Experts of all races, does our academy need to have the Ancient Saint take action?"

Yunning glanced at him, replying coolly, "Equal to those of other races."
