Long Live the Call of Heroes

Chapter 158 Survivors and Transactions
I don't know if they followed to attack the town, or scattered to other novice villages. In short, although the frequency of their encounter with demons is not low, the enemy's strength is basically very weak. Often, when Donna shoots a wave of arrows, the opponent will be killed or injured. It was exhausted, so most of the journey was considered smooth, only when gradually approaching the final destination, some undead appeared one after another.

And Li Wei noticed the opponent's skull and claws, which were undoubtedly transformed by jackals.

This immediately made the witch Tiwa even more angry, and she also joined the battle in person, which also allowed Li Wei and others to learn more about her abilities.

In addition to eagle eye, mage armor, body protection stone skin, and summon archon, which she can't use yet, she can also use earth-type offensive magic such as stone cones and ground spikes, as well as a quicksand trap.

Especially the last magic, although it is not offensive, but in Li Wei's view, it is very effective. Once the enemy falls into the quicksand, it will not be able to move for a short time, and it will be completely reduced to a living target. To some extent, it is similar to For the spider web technique, it only covers a much smaller area, but at the same time, its duration is even better. Li Wei is very interested in this.

So during the battle, he also took the time to chat with the opponent to see if there was any chance to learn.

Although the witch Tiwa was a little surprised by his attitude, she actually asked him for something, because her magic for summoning archons still couldn't be used normally, so this high elf and a gnoll quickly became acquainted. network up.

That's why Li Wei knew that the other party was actually specialized in Hawkeye, and before meeting him, she hadn't succeeded once in eight years. She finally learned to summon Yakong, but because of the serious opposition between camps and factions, rendering it completely useless.
Although it was because of the face of a wolf man whose expression was not easy to be recognized, Li Wei could hear the grievance of the other party even if it was just the tone of his speech.

Indeed, no matter who is replaced by this kind of thing, it is estimated that she will be very wronged. It can only be said that the eagle eye technique is too deceitful, and her luck is really too bad.

But before he could comfort him a few words, the witch Tiwa immediately tried cautiously, wanting to ask her what to do in order to truly master the method of summoning Archon. She didn't want to waste this opportunity in vain.

Li Weixin said that it was actually because of your bad luck. Afterwards, he specifically asked Guang Yakong and Mastiff Yakong and others. Among the Yakong, there are also very few who tend to be dark and evil. It is still possible to use this magic normally.

But out of his consideration, of course he would not tell the other party this, he thought for a while: "The safest way is to further change your camp, if you can become absolutely neutral, I will help you find a way , if it is lawful and neutral, then it will be very difficult for the archons to reject you."

The witch Tiwa suddenly showed a embarrassed and helpless expression, didn't she want to?

But the jackal is inherently chaotic and evil. Even if she made a conscious change, she would still be far from absolute neutrality, let alone lawful neutrality.

Li Wei knew that the fire was about to come, he smiled, and finally revealed his true purpose: "If it is normal, it will take a long time and a lot of effort, but right now there is an excellent opportunity."

Looking in the direction of his line of sight, the witch Tiwa saw some annoying quasimoons like flies, and then she woke up instantly.

Indeed, demons are a kind of evil creatures that the whole world hates. If he can kill a large number of demons, it will definitely greatly promote the bias of the camp!

Seeing that she was obviously moved, the Doomsday Chen Zhui next to her was getting more and more strange.

What's the situation? It's obvious that Tiwa the Witch has already been successfully pre-booked by him, and after a series of hardships, he feels that the success rate has been greatly improved. As a result, now Li Wei only said a few words, which caused the ducks he got to fly again. Is it possible to go?
You jackal actually want to hang out with the high elves?Why do I inexplicably have a feeling that my forehead is going to turn green?

But before he had time to say anything, they already felt the destination, a Gnoll camp in a hidden ravine, and everyone was on guard, because no one knew how many heavily guarded this place would be.

It's a pity that before Sam and Julia could investigate clearly, a certain unlucky hyena seemed to have triggered some kind of trap and was killed on the spot. Immediately afterwards, a thunderous roar came from the ravine: "Betrayer!"

Following this shout, fifty or sixty vicious purgatory gnolls suddenly jumped out and rushed towards them aggressively.

However, when Li Wei saw their charge route, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows immediately. Obviously, the prestige level between himself and the wolf man was already enmity, but in the end, these guys seemed to come straight to Chen Zhui and the witch Tina in the last days .

That's all for the former, but the latter is a hero-level unit, but it still suffers from such treatment. This can only mean that these purgatory gnolls and ordinary gnolls are no longer a species at all, and even things like prestige levels are being suppressed. Cut it off, or these guys are pure assholes!

But in any case, for him now, there is actually not much difference, the other party is an enemy to be killed.

The purgatory wolves quickly launched a charge, but Li Wei and the others were too experienced in dealing with enemies of this level. Before the two sides really contacted, they were taken away by the arrow rain. When Yu Yong formed the front line, he was even more bloody on the spot.

And it was probably to show Li Wei a special favor. Without Li Wei asking, the witch Tiwa took the initiative to release the body protection stone skin for the Yuyongs, which directly made it almost impossible for ordinary purgatory gnolls to break through their defenses.

Li Wei feels that the other party is really good at things. If it continues to develop, maybe he can really form a team with her. Although the high elves despise or even hate the gnoll, of course, as the hero of the gods, he will not mind. this point.

Doomsday Chen Zhui next to him couldn't help feeling even more complicated when he saw this. Although he and the witch Tiwa were actually just temporary teammates, and he was even hugging each other's thighs all the time, he felt really strange now, as if he was inexplicable It's like being green!
As the rain of arrows continued, the number of purgatory wolves decreased rapidly, but one of them, an elite who was exceptionally tall and strong, showed extraordinary combat effectiveness.

It uses a giant mace as a weapon, and its power is extremely powerful. Even Zhou Miyin and others were knocked back again and again while swinging it. Only the elephant-man warrior Bayoru could hold it firmly.

However, it was besieged by everyone at the same time, and the wounds on its body were also increasing rapidly, especially after Cindy released a Sigma Comet on it, the wounds on its body became more and more serious.

But even so, it didn't look decadent at all, but became more and more courageous as it fought. Li Wei even noticed that some of the small wounds on its body were still healing slowly and firmly, probably because of the blessing of the devil. Obviously it Also has a special ability to continuously restore life in battle.

Seeing Li Wei frowning slightly, the witch Tiwa subconsciously explained: "It used to be one of Hogg's most trusted warlords, and unlike most warlords, it has a formal barbarian occupation."

Li Wei couldn't help raising his eyebrows, so it's a little bit understandable.

Most of the ordinary aborigines have no real occupations. For example, half-elf warriors have the word warrior in their name, but in fact they basically don't know many warrior moves, and their abilities are also similar to those of warriors. God's Chosen Heroes vary greatly.

But the jackal in front of him has a special barbarian profession, which shows that it has opened a big distance from ordinary low-level miscellaneous soldiers, and in terms of actual combat effectiveness, it is indeed very strong, even stronger than it was in the dog's head. The dragon warriors outside the human camp are more ferocious.

However, Li Wei's current strength is no longer what it used to be, and the witch Tiwa also made a little effort, and soon successfully eliminated the opponent, and seized the mace used by the opponent, a blue Quality Weapon - Gnoll Growler.

It's a pity that this thing not only requires relevant weapon specialization skills, but also the attributes are average. More importantly, no one in the team uses this weapon, so it can only be saved for later selling or exchanging with others.

After solving the opponent, Sam scouted and dismantled a few simple traps, and then the road was smooth, and soon Li Wei followed the guidance of the witch Diwa and really entered the camp of the wolf man.

Although he had already expected it, Li Wei couldn't help but sink in his heart when he saw the blood stains all over the ground and the many bones with tooth marks that were discarded at will.

Without saying anything, he just immediately ordered Zhou Miyin and others to search for possible surviving captives separately.

Then the witch Tiwa and Doomsday Chen Zhui ran towards a certain tent immediately, but Sam's eyes were sharper. After realizing the other party's intentions, he got in first, and it didn't take more than ten seconds. He took back a few things with a happy face.

Li Wei took a look, and besides what the witch Tina had said before, there were two other items.

One is the common magic specialty of mages, spell recognition. The effect is that the opponent can see through the magic of the opponent through the shape of the mouth and spells. The specific success rate will depend on the level, intelligence and knowledge of related magic of both parties. If it is a magic that has never been seen or learned at all, it is naturally almost impossible to be successfully identified.

He immediately realized that this thing should have a very powerful effect in the sorcerer's duel, and as the sorcerer's own strength continues to improve and the magic he masters increases, the effect of this specialty will become more and more powerful.

Needless to say, seeing that he already met the requirements, he chose to use it on the spot.

Then another trophy was a little bit unexpected, because it turned out to be a special formula for making magic items, which is the unique hunting shackles of jackals!

Li Wei immediately realized that his money was coming.

Although with the continuous improvement of everyone's strength, the enemy's strength is also constantly becoming stronger. Because this kind of hunting shackles is too poor in workmanship, it is easy to be crushed or broken off by the powerful, so the value is not so high.

But for novices or some druids, rangers, and god-chosen heroes who like to use beasts as their subordinates, their value is beyond doubt, so many people buy them every day, but usually All are priceless.

Once he can successfully master this special formula and manufacture it, he will not be rich or rich, but his wealth will definitely continue to flow. In addition, he has been famous in many nearby villages for enchanting weapons. Ability, relying on these two alone, can make some money every day.

It's a pity that this thing still needs a pre-fab feat of making magical objects, which he can't use for the time being, but he vaguely remembers that the quartermaster has this feat, and it's not too expensive, so it's easy to learn it.

Seeing Li Wei's smiling face, Chen Zhui couldn't help but sighed, knowing that his plan would fail. After all, the initiative is completely in the opponent's hands now, and they can't even be regarded as a team, let alone a team. There is no possibility of sharing the spoils.

Although he had no hope, he still asked casually, "Li Wei, can you sell it to me?"

Li Wei put away all the things, then smiled and shook his head: "This is not in the agreement, but after I make it, I can sell it to you at a cheaper price."

They agreed at the beginning to lead the way, and after the old mage was rescued along the way, he would tell the other party information about the kobold camp and the Underdark region, and other things were out of scope.

Doomsday Chen Zhui nodded and stopped entanglement.

Li Wei was a little surprised, but seeing that the witch Tiwa didn't look at this side at all, but was attracted by the many corpses around her, he knew that the other party probably had a backup plan.

As an aboriginal hero, the combat power she has shown so far may not be particularly strong, but she should still have some background.

She told herself before that because the gnolls are a savage and bloodthirsty race, they don't have any magic inheritance at all, so she has been wandering around for many years, wanting to visit famous teachers and learn more magic, especially when she accidentally learned After getting the eagle eye technique, it was even more like a treasure, and he started to travel in a wider range.

Although almost ninety-nine percent of the interviewees explicitly rejected her request due to racial reasons, and some even turned to attack her, but after going through so much, she is still alive until now, and the more Getting stronger and stronger, it is simply impossible to say that there is no harvest and savings at all.

Especially this time when Hogg invited her to the Rocky Heights, how could she not bleed at all?

This is also one of the important reasons why Li Wei has never really wanted to kill the opponent despite the conflict between the two sides. He has not yet figured out all the opponent's cards.

"My lord, here!"

Hearing Julia's slightly surprised voice, Li Wei immediately knew that she must have found the target. He hurried over, and soon saw that there were scars all over his body, even his hair was burnt, and he fell into a coma State of the old mage.

And more importantly, there is a shimmering magic circle under his body, which is an inverse pentagram representing evil, demons and even the bottomless abyss.

At the same time, there are Dao Dao roads that are almost invisible to the naked eye, but the subtle energy flow that Li Wei sensed through magic is drawn from the old mage's body, and then guided into the ground.

The witch Tiwa who followed along was immediately surprised: "This seems to be an evil magic circle similar to energy draining!"

Donna, who was holding a bow for vigilance, raised her eyebrows subconsciously. She had encountered similar magic before.

Li Wei also immediately understood why the old mage was able to survive until now. Obviously, no matter whether it was Hogg or any other demon who did it, they were all using the old mage as a source of energy, so they didn't kill him for the time being.

It's just that it's almost impossible to recover the lost power easily after being hit by a similar magic, not to mention that the old mage is still dealing with a magic circle that lasted for an unknown how long.

Li Wei didn't dare to act rashly for a while: "Tiwa, can you help dispel this magic circle?"

Although it is possible to make a move, the witch Tiwa doesn't want to take the responsibility alone. This old human mage looks weak. If he is killed by the magic circle, who will it be?
So she immediately responded: "Well, I can try, but it will be safer if you help me together."

Li Wei didn't have any objection to this point, so he quickly followed the other party's instructions and sent a certain amount of mana to several key parts of the magic circle.

Facts have proved that the witch Tiwa did not boast. The system quickly reminded Li Wei that his spell recognition expertise had taken effect, and then a few seconds later, under the joint efforts of the two, the light of the magic circle quickly dimmed. up.

Let Cindy and Janet heal the old mage and feed some water. After a long time, everyone else came to report back, saying that they found some scattered belongings and about a dozen high elves. The survivor, the old mage woke up slowly.

Then he saw the jackal face of the witch Teeva for the first time, and he was so scared that he almost fainted again.

Fortunately, Li Wei was also standing beside him. Although he couldn't figure out how they got together for a while, it was obvious that he was saved.

It's just that probably because he hasn't eaten for many days and is affected by magic, the old mage is so weak that he can't speak at all.

Seeing this, Li Wei gave a few words of comfort, and then turned to look at the witch Tiwa. According to the previous agreement, their deal has now been concluded.

He didn't waste any words, and directly handed over the few things the other party asked for before: "Do you have any plans for the future?"

"Well, I want to look for some of my kindred in the rocky highlands. There must be like me who are unwilling to be transformed into demons."

Li Wei nodded, and selectively told the other party the information about the kobolds and the Underdark, and then he specifically reminded: "If you really want to use the summon archon, you can Need to continue to change your camp, now is just the right opportunity, if you have any questions or needs, you also know how to find me."

"But if things change, maybe I won't stay around here forever."

Except for the dark area and the black dragon hidden below, there are not many enemies nearby that interest Li Wei, and the black dragon is obviously not a strong enemy he can challenge at present, so his next goal is to go to the East.

Slay through the undead that stand in your way, and participate in the real battle between demons and high elves!
After finishing speaking, he glanced at Chen Zhui in the end of the world next to him. If there were any changes, the witch Tiwa might not know about it immediately, but he, the God's Chosen Hero, might know about it earlier and more. After all, he still has system announcements and forums outside the game.

Chen Zhui nodded at the end of the world. Although he was very unhappy with Li Wei's obvious poaching behavior, he is now deeply aware of the limitations of the wolf man race, unless he is also voluntarily transformed like those two hateful guys Become a Purgatory Gnoll, otherwise he would be really difficult to get around.

There are only two paths in front of him now, either run to the Underdark, or try to change his camp like the witch Tiwa.

Although it is almost impossible to be accepted by the high elves even if he changes himself, he still has other choices, such as the Cathay Empire, which claims to be inclusive of all things.
According to the information on the forum, they can not only accept non-human races such as ogres and tiger people to join the team, but even undead creatures such as vampires can be accepted, and they are allowed to enter the court and the army to hold a series of important positions .

Moreover, many officials of the aboriginal people seem to be very keen on this kind of behavior of persuading foreigners to do good, and even recruiting foreigners, not only because it can supplement the strength of their troops, but also because they seem to think it is a kind of propaganda that can shock people. The method of the greatness of the Dan Dynasty has even become a kind of political merit in a sense.

Therefore, a jackal who is dedicated to abandoning evil and pursuing good will definitely be very popular with the other party.

Although this is actually very uncomfortable for him, but he has no choice but to try to be recruited for better development.

It's just that no matter which of these two roads he chooses, it's not easy, and he still has to keep hugging his thighs in a short time.
After rescuing all the captives, Li Wei also officially parted ways with the jackals. In the end of the world, Chen Zhui and the witch Tiwa both left in a hurry. They also had a lot of things to do, and Li Wei also paid for a few first-level small magics. , and successfully copied the two magics of quicksand and body protection stone skin from her hand.

In fact, she is more satisfied with this than a deal, because during her travels in the past many years, other magicians rejected her when they saw her race, and they would not take the initiative to exchange magic with her. , this can't help but make her more excited. If she can continue to act together with Li Wei, it doesn't seem to be a bad thing. At least for now, he has a lot more magic than himself...

At this time, the old mage also recovered a little bit, and began to stand up tremblingly, and tried to act independently.

It's just that his body is still very weak, he can't even straighten his back, and his mood is obviously very depressed.

Li Wei can also understand, not only because his mission failed, which led to the deaths of a large number of fellow travelers, but also because his strength has also dropped significantly.

In contrast, the other survivors had also had some vitality drawn, but they were inherently less powerful, and they were not magicians, so they were not affected so much.

However, after all, the old mage's age and experience are there. As they started their return journey, it didn't take long for him to regain his strength.

Li Wei also comforted the other party a few words, and then asked: "As far as I know, Hogg seems to be a pure fighter."

The old mage sighed: "That's exactly what I'm worried about. There are several fly devils around it. They seem to be behind the scenes. Hogg is a dog being used."

Li Wei shrugged. Under normal circumstances, the other party's inferences are fine, but unfortunately he has no idea what happened during the few dozen hours he was imprisoned.

So he disclosed all the information he knew to the other party, about the short fight between the Abyss Demon God and the gods, and about the captured Black Castle.

The more the old mage listened, the more excited he became, and even his eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets. Only then did he notice the multiple abyssal fissures hanging high above the sky like the sun or the moon.

Then, with the wisdom of a mage, he immediately realized that if he relied on his own strength, he might never be able to avenge Hogg.

Seeing this, Li Wei couldn't help but tentatively asked: "What are your plans for the future?"

Although the other party obviously concealed something on the duet ring and when teaching him many magics, in any case, the other party can be regarded as half of his teacher.

And even if he loses his strength, Li Wei doesn't think it will be a big deal. In this world, if he can really save his life, it's not too difficult to become stronger.

The old mage immediately said without hesitation: "Of course I will continue to fight against the demons. Although I no longer have the original strength, I still have knowledge and wisdom. The old dog also has a few teeth!"

But looking at Li Wei's expression, the old mage suddenly came to his senses. He looked at Li Wei with a half-smile: "You want to recruit me? A useless person?"

Li Wei also smiled: "As you said, you still have knowledge and wisdom, and I still have a lot of magic learned from you. Moreover, you are not the only one who has suffered similar hardships."

At this time, Donna took the initiative to stand up. Although she didn't say a word, the old mage seemed to understand something, because Li Wei didn't need to lie to him.

After a few seconds of silence, he suddenly laughed: "If I were to seek refuge, why didn't I choose other generals or lords, you don't even have a place to stay."

Donna next to her couldn't help snorting, she had already shared honor and disgrace with Li Wei, and the other party looked down on Li Wei, so why didn't she look down on her?

But Li Wei was not angry at all, but still kept smiling: "Because they don't lack people, but I do, and I also have talents that they don't have. I am a God's Chosen Hero."

As we all know, God's Chosen heroes are full of countless mysteries, and similarly, their potential is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

The old mage also smiled: "You almost convinced me, so let's make an agreement, as long as you can kill Hogg, or those few fly demons, I will really consider your proposal and put my How about passing on everything I have learned to you?"

"make a deal!"
