Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 1821 Takeoff from Wuhu!

This 'ground spike attack' against the earthen wall is somewhat of a trick.

Just like even the most invincible fortress can be destroyed from within.

However, this should be considered a unique advantage of the 'ground spike attack', and Zhou Xu did not intend to dwell on this point.

As always, he changed the attributes again.

However, this time even the spell failed to work.

Zhou Xu, who wanted to take advantage of the afternoon to quickly test all the spells he had, was very quick and switched to the next spell immediately.

[Mudslide Missile!]

Almost simultaneously with the casting of the spell, three basketball-sized, mud-like objects rapidly condensed around him and then blasted towards the stone wall standing in the distance.

The attack speed was incredibly fast. With three loud 'bang bang bang!' sounds, the missiles exploded one after another as they hit the distant stone wall, causing splash damage.

This was unexpected by Zhou Xu.

[This 'mudslide missile' even has explosive damage?]

He initially thought this move might just be an enhanced version of the 'flying stone attack', but now it seems to be a super enhanced version!
At the same time, amidst the explosion, the earthen wall standing there was blasted apart and shattered on the spot.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Xu quickly stepped forward to confirm the situation.

Unlike the 'ground spike attack' which is somewhat of a trick, this wave of 'mudslide missiles' demonstrates pure strength.

It should be noted that although this earthen wall is called an earthen wall, its interior is formed by magical power binding earth and stone, making it much stronger than ordinary walls.

These three 'mudslide missiles' could shatter the earthen wall, and if they hit a person, one shot would basically blow their flesh and blood apart.

Zhou Xu estimated that an ordinary martial artist at the Hundred Refinements Realm, without special combat skills or enchanted equipment for protection, would not be able to withstand this blow.

Of course, being able to avoid it is another matter.

As they approached, the magic that had been maintaining the wall dissipated as the earthen wall was blasted apart.

This made the collapsed earthen wall appear somewhat loose at this moment.

However, from the general outline, Zhou Xu could still deduce that the three 'mud and rock missiles' did not hit the earthen wall at the same time.

Each 'mudslide missile' struck the earthen wall and created a large crater in the wall.

Under this premise, the craters created by each of these three "mudslide missiles" overlapped to some extent.

This directly caused the same area hit by the three "mudslide missiles" to completely collapse under the continuous impact, resulting in the overall shattering of the earthen wall.

While making his conjecture, Zhou Xu replaced the earthen wall with a new one and tested the 'mudstone missiles' again. This time, he directly activated his perception field to capture the entire movement of the three 'mudstone missiles,' which completely confirmed his conjecture.

Then, as always, the attribute-changing operation was performed.

Unlike the attribute-changing operation of the earthen wall, the 'mud and rock missile' has an explosive effect, so the attribute-changing operation is surprisingly effective.

The most effective of them all is undoubtedly the 'Flame Missile'.

According to Zhou Xu's perception, compared to the 'Mudstone Missile', the first stage of damage, namely the impact damage, of the 'Flame Missile' is lower, but the explosion damage is increased, which can be considered as having its own unique characteristics.

There's also 'Gale Missile,' which is actually quite effective, with a faster projectile speed and sharper explosive damage. However, the problem is that with similar resource consumption, 'Gale Blade' is sharper, faster, and more effective.

With 'Swift as a Blade' already in place, the later 'Swift Missile' was basically useless against Zhou Xu. And the least effective was 'Lightning Missile'.

Needless to say, lightning spells have a recurring problem: they dissipate before even hitting their target.

The simplest way to solve this problem is to inject a lot of mana after unlocking the full incantation, but this approach is obviously not cost-effective.

At the same time, Zhou Xu had too many options in front of him. There was no need for him to stubbornly stick to this move. If this move didn't work, he could just switch to another one.

At this point, the readily available mantra spells acquired in this batch have been basically tested.

Next up was his newly created mantra spells.

After acquiring many new True Word characters, he discovered a move that seemed promising.

After making a quick adjustment, he was actually starting to feel a little excited.

Without hesitation, a series of difficult and awkward tones came out of Zhou Xu's mouth. As the last tone fell, Zhou Xu found that the solid ground in front of him suddenly surged like water.

[Mudslide strikes!]

In the next instant, it was as if a dam had burst, and terrifying mud and water mixed with a large number of rocks and sand surged toward the earthen wall standing in the distance!
Under the powerful erosion, the earthen wall was completely washed away in just one encounter.

But the mud torrent showed no signs of slowing down, carrying the collapsed earthen walls as it rushed toward the mine ruins behind and even the mines further away!

In the blink of an eye, the mine ruins were completely submerged. The surging mud torrent, upon encountering the mine, seemed to transform into a giant wave, crashing heavily against the mountainside.

In an instant, the mountain collapsed and the mine caved in, causing a massive earthquake!
[Takeoff from Wuhu!]

After one move, the area was cleared out, and the mine ruins were razed to the ground in the blink of an eye. Even most of the mine was destroyed.

He hasn't even unlocked the full chant yet, and he hasn't increased his strength.

He had thought this move would be quite powerful, but the actual effect still exceeded his initial expectations!

This destructive power completely surpasses the 'Flame Wave Assault', making it comparable to the 'Giant Wave Assault' on land.

No! This is even more powerful than the original 'Giant Wave Attack'!
Imagine if this tactic were used directly on the enemy forces—it would wipe out an entire enemy army in one fell swoop! It could instantly turn the tide of battle!

When used on enemy fortresses or positions, it can basically destroy them with ease.

However, Zhou Xu's mind was still relatively clear. This move had high value in warfare.

However, this move is basically useless in a battle between strong opponents. Zhou Xu estimated that even a Vajra Realm martial artist could dodge it.

Simply put, this is a very powerful strategic skill, but not a good one-on-one skill.

Zhou Xu then tried out the 'Mudslide Vortex' move.

The spell was successfully cast, and the actual effect it produced met his expectations.

But after testing the power of the 'mudslide rush' first, the 'mudslide vortex' felt redundant.

In situations where 'mudslide vortex' is needed, wouldn't it be better and more violent to just use 'mudslide rush'?

However, considering that some special circumstances might arise later, and that it might even have some surprising effects, Zhou Xu decided to go back and study it again.
