Chapter 1175: Sand of time

Using a pinch of fine sand as the casting material, after successfully casting "Sand of Time", a "negative energy" can be injected into the subject's body.
If the subject is a living creature, the body will quickly age under negative energy erosion, the specific age of age is proportional to the caster level. Counting the increase in "mythical mana", Joan is equivalent to an 8th-level arcane spellcaster. The "sand of time" released from his hands can make a creature age 40 years.
The aging effect caused by "Sand of Time" is equivalent to a temporary "curse", which will be automatically eliminated after a few hours, but during aging, the subject seems to be really 40 years old and physical The function has declined in all directions and has become particularly weak.
If the subject is a natural short-lived species, such as most wild animals in nature, the average life span is usually less than 40 years old, then the "sand of time" is equivalent to the "immortal" magic for them. He died directly from aging, and he could not stick to the moment when the spell failed and regained his youth.
In the world of Valais today, the average life expectancy of humans is about 50 years old. The average life expectancy of "extraordinary professionals" is longer than that of ordinary people, but it is rare for people over 100 years old.
Casting "Sand of Time" on a strong and strong young fighter turned it into an old man in his sixties and with white hair. Even if he didn't die on the spot, he could greatly weaken the fighting power of the other party.
It is conceivable that the curse of "Sand of Time" on the "eternal race" is not so good. For example, casting this spell on elves, dwarves, and dragons, you can hardly see any changes after the opponents move. After all, 40 years is like 4 years for humans.
If the "sand of time" is applied to objects, constructs, or physical undead creatures, because such targets do not have "lifetime" restrictions, the effect will no longer be age-related aging, but a more realistic instrument. Sexual aging.
For example, the release of "Sand of Time" on a stone statue will show obvious weathering and erosion characteristics, as if it has been subjected to 40 years of wind and rain in the natural environment.
In the same way, if the "sand of time" is cast on a "stone golem" or a zombie, it will also be damaged due to the aging of stone and bones, becoming decayed, fragile and fragile.
In this case, the damage caused by "Sand of Time" is proportional to the caster level, with a maximum of 10 energy levels. Joan is equivalent to an 8th-level caster. The "sand of time" cast by his hand can cause up to 8 levels of aging damage.
In addition to undead creatures with corpses such as zombies and skeletons, there are also undead creatures such as ghosts. Since there is no real body, of course, they will not age and decay, so "sand of time" will not die to the incorporeal. Creature is invalid.
"'Constructive crippling technique' and'Sand of Time' can both penetrate magic resistance and can be used to deal with golems, but these two spells also have a common shortcoming, that is, they must contact the target to take effect, which of course will Brings greater risks." Professor Moriarty smiled at Joan, and then said: "Fortunately, this is not a shortcoming for you. Anyway, you can use the "Ghost Hand" or "Mage Ghost Palm" 'Conducting such contact spells, there is no need to risk approaching golems in order to cast spells."
"Teacher, do the'constructive crippling technique' and'sand of time' also work for legendary constructs like'colossus'?" Joan asked Professor Moriarty for advice.
"If the Colossus does not open the "Anti-Magic Field", these two spells are of course effective, but they will also be blocked in the "Anti-Magic Field". The professor told the truth.
Joan was not surprised by this result, bowing his head and pondering.
Professor Moriarty saw his thoughts and asked with a smile: "Are you thinking, is there any way to crack the "anti-magic field"?"
Joan nodded frankly, expecting the tutor to give instructions.
"'Anti-Magic Field' is really annoying, there are ways to crack it, some of you also know, such as the 9th ring of "Mage Cracking Technique", if you are lucky, even the artifact can be smashed with one blow, of course, it can also be used to eliminate'Anti-Magic' field'."
"There is also a 9-ring spell that is more popular than "Mage Cleave", called "Calling Mana", this magical spell can be separated from the magic net, allowing you to be in the "dead magic zone", "devilless world" and "reverse" Cast a spell no higher than 4 rings in the "Magic Field"..."
"It's really amazing, but the 9th-level spell is too far away for me."
Joan couldn't help smiling, if he really had the ability to cast 9th-level spells, why bother with the "anti-magic field".
"Well, if you think it is not reliable to use the 9th-level spell to fight the "anti-magic field", consider those abilities that can be performed without relying on the magic net, such as the monk's "True Qi" and the soul warlock's. Powers can function normally in the "Anti-Magic Field"."
Joan shrugged, not knowing what to say about the new advice given by the tutor. As a mage, it is impossible to transfer to a monk to practice "True Qi". As for "psychic abilities", it is even out of reach. I don't know where to go if I want to learn.
Professor Moriarty also seemed to find that the first two suggestions he gave were not very practical. He felt his chin for a moment and suddenly smiled strangely.
"Teacher, what good idea do you have in mind?" Joan asked curiously.
"Joan, let’s return to the original question. If you want to deal with Colossus, you don’t have to be entangled in how to crack the "Anti-Magic Field". You can completely devastate the Colossus outside the radiation range of the "Anti-Magic Field". Blow."
"But mentor, what is the way to deal a fatal blow to the giant colossus at such a long distance?" Joan asked eagerly.
"Due to the existence of the "anti-magic field", lethal spells do not need to be considered, but Joan, you know, in this era, the most lethal weapons on the battlefield are not spells, but cannons and bombs!"
"Cannons and bombs..."
Joan muttered to himself, recalling naturally what Captain Stone had said to him.
The reason why human colonists can gain a foothold in the New World, even the Frost Giants with mythological colossus dare not easily harass the cities and fortresses established by the colonists, relying not on powerful spells, but on "magic crystal cannons."
"Joan, if you want to destroy a legendary colossus, the easiest and most feasible way is to get a "magic train gun", fire a thousand-pound artillery shell ten miles away, and continue bombing the colossus until the It will be completely destroyed; or drive a magic airship full of aviation bombs, throw a bomb at the colossus from high altitude, the colossus will not fly anyway, and sooner or later it will be blown into a pile of rubble." Professor Moriart was serious Say.
