Chapter 535: Chapter 446 The Core Elements of Transcendent Warfare_3

In the golden age of the elves, the World Tree served as their soul tree, carrying their soul totems to assist the elves who were not yet willing to journey to the elf divine kingdom of Alvandor in using spells for resurrection.

However, during the six Crown Wars that lasted over ten thousand years, the World Trees on the Felen Continent suffered massive destruction.

Even for the elves, the cultivation time required for a World Tree was excessively long.

Having no alternative, they had to find another way, using artificial constructions to replace the World Tree—the Tower of Dominion at the heart of Mystlock City was the best alternative, and Mesnoel was no exception.

Gaven’s words reminded Daphne, who quickly shared a piece of new intelligence, "If you encounter the special sacrificers of the Master of the Masked, be on high alert, they have a necromancy spell called ’Soul Theft,’ capable of stealing the souls of freshly dead creatures, to charge magic items; once a soul is completely expended as energy, it may be directly erased."

"During the soul’s imprisonment, the individual can’t be reached for resurrection, including Complete Resurrection Spell and Wish Spell, unless you can seize the magic item that is charged with their soul and cast a Reversal Spell to reclaim the soul’s energy from the magic item."

"Soul theft? There’s such an evil magic?"

"Yes, it’s a special sacramental spell created by the Masked King through Shadow and Thievery Priesthood, a closely guarded secret of the masked ones, specifically designed to target the enemies of the Masked King. When the time comes, make sure to protect your comrades’ bodies at all costs, and prevent those sacred sacrificers’ Holy Emblems from touching them, as they typically use this method as a medium."

"Thank you, madam, this information is crucial. We will be vigilant in combat,"

"It’s the least I can do. Being able to help you is my greatest honor."

"If the battle occurs within the coverage of the Tower of Dominion, you needn’t worry too much. Not only can we instantly transport the enemies’ bodies to the Tower of Dominion, but we can also rescue our warriors’ bodies in the same way. It mainly comes down to how well we coordinate."

"For safety’s sake, after we’ve undergone cooperative training, we also shouldn’t rashly expand the battlefield. Like the Dwarves Elves beneath the Tower of Dominion, we should engage in small-scale skirmishes. It’s safe, and it also deceives them, letting them think that our forces are limited."

"But we can’t appear too weak; we must cause them trouble and pressure, or they will act even more unscrupulously."

A flurry of information exchange brought significant enlightenment to everyone, and soon the tactical meeting grew animated, with everyone voicing their opinions and ideas.

Quickly, a series of tactics were developed, and they established comprehensive strategies for the early, middle, and late stages of the campaign.

The middle and late stages were only a general direction and did not specify more details.

Many of those present had followed Gaven for some time and knew very well how quickly this Lord could create complications and how rapidly he could generate momentum.

Perhaps they hadn’t even finished their early-stage plans when new reinforcements might join or when the situation might change unpredictably.

Setting that aside, at the very least, the Yaling Combat Group and three kinds of Gnoll Battalions Brigade were already on their way to provide support.

The early-stage plan centered around the middle ring of the Tower of Dominion.

They divided Mesnoel around the Tower of Dominion into a core circle, inner circle, middle circle, and outer circle.

The core circle was directly beneath the Tower of Dominion—within one kilometer. This area was the essence of Mesnoel.

The inner circle spanned from one to three kilometers. This also counted as the Mystlock Circle. To enter the inner circle, one must possess the password keys for the Mystlock or break the Mystlock itself.

The middle circle was three kilometers outside of the Mystlock. This area was considered to be under the city of Mesnoel. The Dwarves Elves had already advanced to this area, and some bold ones even attempted to sneak close to the Mystlock and tried to infiltrate.

The outer circle was the Dwarves Elves’ heavily fortified ring, bustling with a large number of Dwarves Elves and their enslaved minions.

The races of the Dwarves Elves’ enslaved minions were chaotic, including various indigenous beasts from the Mir Forest as well as races from the Dark Domain such as War Lizardfolk, Moorland Bearmen, and Petrified Lizards.

Before the official confrontation, the warriors of Mesnoel made their preparations meticulously, not only living together to understand each other better but also sparring in the arena.

The sparring between Brolan of the Autumnbreeze and the Golia Barbarians was the most frequent.

The win rate for both sides was pretty evenly split, and it all came down to who could take control of the whole duel and draw the other into their own preferred domain.

Brolan of the Autumnbreeze possessed terrifying mobility in combat. Fairy Step allowed them to be elusive, while Autumnbreeze Protection delayed the enemy’s attack and movement speeds. Once they breached within five meters, even a Transcendent Golia Barbarian would be suppressed by their storm-like assault, utterly unable to counterattack.

The advantage of the Golia Barbarians needs little explanation—their racial trait lies in strength, boasting robust Constitutions. The Barbarian class further enhances these abilities; even without going Berserk, many already possess Transcendent Strength and Transcendent Physique.

Even those not quite at the mark would meet the standard upon going Berserk, which unlocks two additional Special Abilities—the Transcendent bonuses of Strength and Constitution.

Just one hit from a Golia Barbarian that Brolan of the Autumnbreeze failed to dodge in time, or simply took head-on, would almost certainly leave them no chance to recover, because as they suffer from the shock and rigidity brought on by the fearsome strength, another attack would follow. While these attacks weren’t very fast, the horrifying strength contained in each strike would trap them in a vicious cycle until they could no longer defend themselves.
