Long Live the Call of Heroes

Chapter 152 Fighting Demons

After a few stinky cloud spells, another piece of demon fell into a special state of nausea and retching, unable to fight for a short period of time. This trick made a great contribution unexpectedly.

And when most of the demons try to squeeze through the bridge, they will face the array of spears and halberds that have already been prepared.

Even though there were four-level three-headed hellhounds who took the lead in charging, they still hit their heads and faces, and even the ground was covered with red blood.

If they were encountered on the plains, they could use three big heads to attack at the same time. They were indeed very difficult enemies, but in this special situation, they couldn't compete with spears and halberds at all in terms of attack distance.

In addition, Li Wei and the others have arranged more than one layer of battle formations. They are surrounded by enemies, and they have to bear attacks from dozens or even dozens of people almost every moment. Even if the defense is extremely high, the vitality is even more vigorous, but A few seconds later, the hell three-headed dogs turned into corpses one after another.

Those who can be sent to carry out such important tasks are naturally from the most elite troops under the command of many god-chosen heroes, and there are many Tier 3 or even Tier 3 elite units.

As for other more fragile demons, they are no match for them.

At first glance, the situation is very good. It seems that they will not be able to make any breakthroughs in a short period of time.

The Lightcaster, the Sun Knight, and the others couldn't help but be overjoyed when they saw this. If they continue like this, they only need to hold the bridgehead that is a few meters wide, and their troops will be able to reap the lives of demons wantonly. Not only will the chances of defeating the opponent be greatly increased , even their losses will be minimal!

A mere wooden bridge a few meters wide will become the soul-breaking bridge for these demons!

But soon they discovered that they were too happy. The demon army did not attack from the narrow wooden bridge exactly as they had imagined. They were not that stupid.

Seeing that the attack was blocked, with a slightly low howl, many horned demon warlords waved their long whips one after another, urging, driving, and even threatening those low-level demons, and began to cross the river.

At the same time, about a dozen crimson hellhounds also came out from the group of demons, and opened their mouths to spit out cone-shaped flames.

Their attack distance is extremely short, usually only a few meters, but their target is not the troops under Li Wei and others, but the river!

Under the scorching flames, the river, which was already in the dry season, quickly dried up, and the original silt also became solidified. Originally, they were dissatisfied, so the low-level demons who deliberately delayed their footsteps couldn't help but panic when they saw this. Quickened the pace.

They originally dawdled because they hated the river water that was incompatible with their own attributes, as well as the silt that got in the way, but now they didn't have such worries at all.

This move was really beyond everyone's expectations, because ordinary hellhounds don't have this kind of attack, they rely entirely on their own sharp minions.

Coupled with that special howl, Li Wei immediately realized that these demons probably had a leader, and it was a special horned demon!

Unfortunately, from his point of view, the same kind of demons were almost all printed from the same mold. Even if he heard the howl, he still couldn't find its owner at all.

"Donna, give up on the horned demon warlords for now, and kill these hellhounds first!"

"Yes!"

With this soft shout, Donna immediately shifted her target. She originally considered that the spearmen and halberds had a certain restraint effect on the charging hellhounds, so she focused on the horned demon warlords with their halos first. But now that Li Wei has an order, how can she not obey?

However, to Li Wei's surprise, even though a small number of hell dogs were killed one after another, the enemies hidden in the dark still did not make any movement, and even the voice of giving orders stopped for a while, as if they were afraid of being killed. Levi found its place.

It doesn't behave like a warlike demon at all, but more like a scheming devil!
Seeing this, Li Wei couldn't help but feel more concerned, but fortunately, they already had the means to prevent this. In addition to being responsible for resisting demons at the bridgehead, they also had a large number of melee troops as backup, and they rushed forward one after another. To snipe each other on the river bank.

Although there is no silt to stop the demons, they still have a certain advantage in being condescending and based on more solid ground.

Bayoru, Cindy and the others were even more excited. They thought they might not have many chances in this battle, but they didn't expect the demons to come to them so soon!
So a big battle officially started, and the total number of troops participating in the battle from both sides exceeded a thousand. Obviously, it would not be able to end in a short time.

Several stinky cloud spells were released one after another, which temporarily affected some enemies and prevented the demons from appearing too much. After thinking about it, Li Wei began to cast summoning magic again.

Now, the situation is a bit urgent, and he also needs more power, and this kind of battle against demons will also be the favorite of the jealous Archon and Gaidin Celestial Clan, maybe it can earn more reputation .

The two magics he recently acquired for summoning the Wolf Patroller and the Mastiff Archon have no level. Even if his level and intelligence attributes continue to improve in the future, except for the change in the maximum number of summons at the same time, the Patrol However, the strength of the wolf envoys and mastiff archons will not be greatly improved by this.

If you want to really get a bigger improvement, you need to improve your reputation with them, and then find a way to summon their more powerful compatriots.

With the flash of light, Guang Yakong, Wolf Patroller, Mastiff Yakong, etc. appeared one after another. Based on Li Wei's current strength, he can summon at least two of each, and this time he was lucky enough to trigger the effect of the duet, He earned a wolf patrol for nothing.

After seeing clearly the battle that was taking place, they became excited at the same time.

Especially the Wolf Patrol Officer who had the earliest contact with Li Wei and was also the most forthright, turned his head on the spot: "Lord Li Wei, you really deserve to be a partner of justice!"

Although the other wolf patrols and mastiff archons didn't speak, they looked at Li Wei more eagerly.

That's right, every time they meet, they either fight gnolls or demons, they are all from the chaotic and evil camp, and they are the most hated enemies of the archons.

Li Wei pointed in the direction of Laxili and the big white lion: "In order to fight against evil, I need your strength."

He has long wanted to form a team with these guys. They all have special skills that weaken the enemy's abilities. When they cooperate with each other, they can definitely exert greater power.

"Haha, that big guy doesn't seem to be weaker than Tiger Envoy?"

"In that case, it is imperative!"

"For light and justice!"

After receiving a clear order, they joined the battle one after another. For a while, they swung their swords and claws together, setting off a storm of death and killing among the demon group.

Their strength is stronger than ordinary demons, especially after using their special powers, the demons will be further weakened, and the threat to them will be even lower.

Li Wei didn't stop, and summoned several ice archons, as well as Deinonychus, grizzly bear and lion, and asked them to join the battle together. This time he was fully fired, facing nearly a thousand Devil, if you continue to hide your power, you are creating danger for yourself.

This series of summoning magic was thrown out, whether it was the light caster who had already seen part of it, or the Sun Knight and others who were not familiar with him before, they were stunned for a while.

Leaving aside such a large number of summoned creatures, it is beyond the reach of ordinary people. What is more important is their quality. I am afraid that even without any troops, Li Wei can kill more than one summoning magic alone. The famous ordinary god's chosen hero, right?

Although envious and surprised, no one was stupid enough to ask questions. They just continued to focus on the battle in front of them. Li Wei has already performed so well, and they should also play their role, otherwise they will contribute a lot after the battle. , doesn't it seem that they are very useless?
So for a while, everyone showed their abilities, and even the Sun Knight wielded the big sword in person, fighting on the front line.

That's all for the others, Li Wei mainly paid attention to legal professions, and then he discovered that one of the druids was actually specialized in summoning plant-type troops.

As he cast the spell, some special seeds on the ground quickly swelled up and turned into arms such as flower demons, man-eating plants, and even treants. Then the druid released the element of enduring fire for their short ones, allowing them to rely on Fight behind earthen walls.

Although they either move very slowly, or are rooted in the ground without legs at all, they are unexpectedly suitable for this kind of defensive warfare.

But despite all the efforts of everyone, the difference in the number of troops between the two sides is too large, and Li Wei has not been able to find the special hellhound hiding in the dark. As the hellhounds continue to spit flames, the river bed becomes more and more The drier it is, the more demons can cross the river at the same time.

Especially when a large number of horned demons and horned demon warlords also entered a state of engagement with their own side, their pressure instantly increased by more than one level.

No matter how despised it is, the horned demon is still a Tier 3 unit, and its hard power lies there.

The Horned Demon Warlord is even stronger. Although it is far from the pressure that the abyss stag badger brought to Li Wei a few days ago, it is superior in its weapons. A flick of the whip can affect several troops.

In addition, they all have a small range of flame halo ability, which really makes the low-level arms somewhat unbearable.

Although the power of the flame halo is not high, but similarly, the low-level arms themselves have almost no magic resistance. This kind of magic flame hitting them is basically equivalent to real damage.

So as the battle continued, even though the druids and priests in the team tried their best to treat them, there were still casualties quickly, even Li Wei's subordinates were no exception.

He originally wanted to find an opportunity to pay the weak subordinates in the team who could no longer keep up with the rhythm and let them leave on their own, so that they could free up their leadership and recruit other stronger subordinates.

After the severance pay was paid, the morale of the remaining subordinates would not be affected by the death of the rabbit and the fox.

It's just that because a lot of things happened in the past few days, and he couldn't find a suitable subordinate for the time being, he was delayed a little.

But he didn't expect that before he had time to do it, these demons helped him in a disguised form. The weakest troops were almost killed, and even the coyotes and hyenas of the animal trainers were basically gone. There are two ends left, but the number of enemies is still so many.

The only ones that are better are probably the Silver Guardians under the Light Forger and the dwarf warriors of the Sun Knight, because they all have a certain degree of magic resistance. The former is due to equipment, and the latter is due to racial talent.

But they are only a little better. After all, even if the fire damage is removed, the strength of the horned demon warlords has brought them a lot of pressure. The most important thing is that there are too many enemies.

So when the battle lasted less than ten minutes, the first hero chosen by God couldn't bear this kind of loss.

"I can't do it, Boss Li Wei, more than half of my melee troops have been lost!"

As soon as he opened his mouth, several other god-chosen heroes also spoke one after another.

"Boss Li Wei, the situation is a bit dangerous. If it doesn't work, let's retreat first?"

"That's right, if this continues, even if the task is completed, it may not be enough to make up for our losses."

"That's right, there are so many demons here, who knows how many more there will be?"

The Sun Knight couldn't help snorting when he heard the words: "Don't complain, at worst, I'll pay you back."

In terms of losses, his troops suffered the most, not only because most of them were weak, but also because he had always put them on the front line.

A hero chosen by the Warrior God boldly said: "But Boss, it's useless for you to take money, unless you exchange it for gold coins."

The Sun Knight was a little annoyed immediately. He also wanted gold coins, but first of all, someone had to be willing to sell them. At this stage, except for local tyrants like Li Wei, how many people can have rich gold coins in their hands?How many people are willing to sell to him?

"Li Wei, what do you think? There are indeed so many demons, which is unreasonable."

The Lightcaster did not participate in this small discussion. He just poured a bottle of magic potion first, released a healing technique for the Jade Warrior soldiers in the front row, and then turned his head to look at Li Wei.

"I have a guess. Maybe they are not prepared for ordinary god-chosen heroes, and they may not even be the targets we need to attack in this mission. Their original purpose is probably the same as the wolves who attacked the village before. It is to attack or even destroy other villages."

If the scale of each batch of demons is so large, it is basically tantamount to forcing everyone to form a team, which is inconsistent with the game's long-standing advocacy of defeating the strong with the weak.

So Li Wei can only think that their encounter this time is probably just a coincidence.

Upon hearing his words, someone was immediately dumbfounded: "Ah? Then didn't we lose our troops in vain?"

Before Li Wei opened his mouth, the Lightcaster took the lead to retort: ​​"What is a waste of money? Once we defeat the opponent, we will definitely get mission rewards, and there are also experience points and equipment!"

"Don't worry, since we have decided to form a guild, we will all see everyone's hard work and dedication, don't you think, Sun Knight, Lightcaster?"

"Of course, as it should be!"

"That's for sure, it's still the same sentence, at worst, I'll give you money to supplement it!"

After a short episode, the God's Chosen Hero who suffered the most losses temporarily withdrew his troops back, and others stepped up temporarily, and the battle continued without affecting the overall situation.

But Li Wei was already bored. Sure enough, even within a small organization, when faced with dangers and interests, doubts, contradictions, or disputes would arise.

Especially in this initial period, when everyone is not yet familiar with each other, and when they don't recognize the leadership's ability so much, there are more problems.

This kind of atmosphere is far inferior to Li Wei's own team. Donna occasionally puts forward some suggestions or opinions, but once a decision is made, she will definitely implement it [-]%.

Sure enough, the guild and the like may not be suitable for me. I should just name it in the future. Even if possible, the position of president can be transferred to other people. Anyway, everyone is just a verbal agreement now. Not really implemented.

Well, the Lightcaster is more familiar with himself and has strong abilities, but the Sun Knight is more generous, even if he has a name, he certainly doesn't have to worry about being treated badly
Although there were many thoughts in his mind, Li Wei's movements in his hands were not affected in any way. The battle continued and became more intense as time went by.

I don't know if it was stimulated by the atmosphere and blood on the battlefield, the attack power and attack speed of the demons have increased to a certain extent, although the range is small, but considering their number, the overall bonus is extremely impressive scary.

Especially the most powerful horned demons, horned demon warlords, and the few surviving ordinary hellhounds, the offensive became even more ferocious. This is probably an ability that increases by percentage.

Li Wei immediately affirmed directly that the special horned demon hiding in the dark, even if it is not a hero unit, must be an extremely special elite, because demons are gifted with hidden advantages in fire resistance and physical strength, and there is no such thing at all. strength.

This must be a special skill similar to the talent of the dark elves-killing attainments. When the number of battle dead on the entire battlefield or the number of enemies killed by them reaches a certain level, they will also receive additional damage. addition!
It's a pity that the opponent's hiding is too deep. Li Wei has not been able to find the target, and naturally there is no way to target them. They can only hold on, and the speed of troop casualties has soared by [-] to [-] percent.

Except for Li Wei's own core troops who still maintained their full combat effectiveness, everyone else was disabled almost instantly.

Especially the Sun Knight at the top, the melee troops commanded by him were completely wiped out by a round of onslaught by the horned demons. If it wasn't for the critical moment, Li Wei summoned several of the most resistant medium-sized The earth element blocked the gap, and a small battle group composed of Dire Wolf Envoy, Mastiff Yakong, Great White Lion, and Laxili dealt a key blow to the opponent. I am afraid that the front line would collapse on the spot.

But even so, everyone couldn't stand it anymore, even the light caster looked at Li Wei frequently: "Li Wei, what should we do, everyone can't stand it anymore!"

"Keep going, the killing skills of the dark elves can only last for a very short time, and the outbreak of these demons is absolutely impossible for a long time!"

While talking, he acted like he didn’t want money, and threw a large number of expendable scrolls at the frontline Cindy, Zhou Miyin, Bayoru and others. As the most solid line of defense, they must not be defeated, and they must lead by example, otherwise Everyone else will definitely choose to give up the fight.

At that time, there will be a real all-out rout. In terms of the marching speed of the demons, probably less than one in ten will be able to return to the village alive.

Hearing what Li Wei said, everyone could only grit their teeth and continue, waiting for the turning point.

Although the special status of the demons has not been lifted immediately, there are new news in other areas.

Sam quickly reported to Levi that a large group of shabby-looking humans in red clothes passed by, but the strangest thing was that almost half of their team were riding skinny horses or donkeys. , the value of these mounts may be much more valuable than the equipment on them.

Li Wei frowned suddenly, could it be some horse thief passing by?If the other party asks me for travel expenses or life money at this time, it's really bad for me not to give it!
Donna, who had just killed a horned demon warlord, couldn't help asking in surprise when she heard the words: "All of them are dressed in red? Then don't they look like good people, but more like robbers?"

Sam immediately nodded repeatedly: "That's right, Lady Donna is right!"

Donna laughed immediately: "Haha, Li Wei, it seems that the gods are still looking after us, the turning point has arrived, let Sam go to them with money, they will become our reinforcements!"

Not only Li Wei, but also the god-chosen heroes around who were also paying attention to this situation were immediately refreshed, and the Sun Knight even said in a big way: "Beauty, I paid for this money, but I want to know who they are? How much does it cost?"

Donna laughed, and killed an elite ape demon with a continuous arrow: "They are the Red Brotherhood, claiming to be the middleman between wealth and evil, but in fact, they are willing to get involved for the sake of wealth, so as a paladin, you should Dodge the question for a moment."

The Sun Knight waved his hand nonchalantly: "Speaking of this question, I don't think you need to care about beautiful women. In fact, I am preparing to become a black guard."

"Although I'm not a bad person, there are too many constraints on a paladin, and there is almost nothing that a black guard can't do, and the requirements are very simple. In addition to having to master a few skills such as cleave and heavy strike, I There is only one condition missing now, and that is that the camp is evil."

The Lightcaster next to him suddenly realized: "That's why you hired so many thieves and robbers?"

The Sun Knight smiled and nodded: "Not only did I search for corpses on the battlefield, I also let them go to the village to steal things. As long as they were caught, even if I paid the ransom and compensation afterwards, my camp would become more and more powerful because of it." Shift towards evil, it is estimated that in two days, you will be able to see a brand new black guard."

For ordinary paladins, they are of course afraid to avoid such a half-black organization like the Red Brotherhood, otherwise, once they get involved, they may lose all their spellcasting ability the next day and become a group of ordinary paladins. A former paladin, he had to go through a very difficult atonement ceremony before he could regain his full abilities.

But for the Sun Knight, he wished he could do this, and it would save him some effort.

The advantage of paladins is that they are good at fighting evil, and they have special abilities such as dispelling undead creatures and summoning celestial mounts.

But the black guards are not bad either. Not only do they have the corresponding shattering slash, but they can also summon purgatory creatures, command undead creatures, etc., and they can fight against paladins tit for tat. Moreover, when dealing with non-evil creatures, their power may be even higher than Be stronger.

Hearing what he said, Li Wei was not surprised at all, not only because of the troops under the opponent's command, but also because in such a fierce battle right now, the Sun Knight has not even used half of the paladin's signature magic and skills .

Not to mention Evil Breaking Slash and Lay On Treatment, he doesn't even have the most basic aura, obviously he has already become a former paladin.

Donna shrugged. She didn't have any prejudices about whether the opponent was a paladin or a black guard, because neither of them were popular professions.

However, as a hero chosen by God, he chose to use this method to achieve his goal.
Tsk, in comparison, it really is Mr. Li Wei who is much more reliable!

"That's just right. For us, the Red Brotherhood has one of the biggest benefits, that is, as long as they pay enough money, they can be hired, even if they go to war with demons, they will not hesitate!"
