Long Live the Call of Heroes

Chapter 163 Silent Manor

I don't know if all the monsters around were killed by the three god-chosen heroes before, or they were conquered by the undead entrenched nearby. In short, the next part of the journey was relatively calm.

If you had to talk about enemies, it would probably be that there would occasionally be some wild beast bones on the side of the road. Under the influence of evil forces, they would turn into revived low-level undead and start attacking them.

It's just that their strength is very weak, and a few people can be easily wiped out.

But even so, the faces of Li Wei, Donna and others were a little serious, because they were not sure for a while, whether it was because of the power of the undead here, or the influence of the abyss demons and the cracks in the sky.

If it's the former, that's okay, but if it's the latter, it means that the scope of influence of the power of the devil is much wider than they imagined.

It's a pity that their current strength is still not enough to find out the truth. Among other things, the nearest one of those abyss fissures to the ground is also hundreds of meters away. Li Wei's magic can't reach that far, let alone Go do something else.

After advancing for a further distance, everyone saw a large black cloud hanging high in midair, which was completely unreasonable, covering a large area of ​​land below.

Li Wei raised his eyebrows involuntarily: "The dark sky was actually created. It seems that these undead people can really seize the opportunity."

Even if the low-level undead are only exposed to the sun, they will weaken or even die. This is why many high-level elf villages clearly knew that there were undead entrenched here, but they only regarded it as a nuisance rather than a threat. reason.

Unless it is cloudy, rainy, or night when the sun is not visible, they can only occupy that manor.

But now with the dark sky, their range of activities will suddenly expand countless times.

After getting closer and being able to see the situation of the Silent Manor clearly, Li Wei found that the information of the Lightcasters was seriously lagging behind. The undead here are not only not affected by the demons, but they don’t know where they made a lot of money. Pen.

The specific manifestation is that they not only built a simple low wall around the manor, but also have two arrow towers in the corners on both sides. At first glance, their defense facilities are even stronger than ordinary villages. And there are still some unfinished facilities in the back. Obviously, the undead entrenched here are trying to develop and expand when the high elves have no time to take care of them.

It's a pity that because the arrow tower was tightly blocked, Li Wei didn't know what kind of enemy was inside for a while. After all, according to common sense, no matter whether it's a skeleton or a zombie among the low-level undead, they don't have enough wisdom and ability at all. To complete a series of complex actions such as drawing a bow and archery.

And probably because I killed the three god-chosen heroes before, the undead people here have also received a warning, and there are already a large number of undead people waiting for them at the gate of the manor.

Originally, according to the lightcaster's information, only in the manor, in those dark corners where the sun can't shine, would enemies appear.

But now it seems that just entering this manor is not easy.

However, the area of ​​this manor does not seem small, and there are undead people who have carried out the preliminary construction. If he can completely capture it, is it possible to use it for other purposes?
For example, build a new village here!
After a few careful glances, Li Wei couldn't help becoming more cautious. He felt that the next battle might not be particularly smooth.

Because in addition to the several undead races that have been seen before, the number of enemies here is not only extremely large, there are at least three or four hundred skeletons and zombies in total, but there are also many types, because they come from different races.

In addition to the most common humans and half-elves in the nearby area, he even saw two ogres and a tauren holding a long-handled battle ax.

These four-meter-tall big men were pale or bluish-purple all over their bodies, and they had obviously been undead for a long time, but just by looking at their stature and muscles, he could tell that even if they were dead, their fighting power It must be good too.

I just don't know if I was frightened by Li Wei's magic, but I haven't seen the undead heroes who were killed for the time being.

There was still a distance away, and Li Wei ordered the troops to prepare for battle on the spot. He first put a buff on himself, and then began to summon the ice archons to enchant the arrows of the long-range troops, and the melee troops began to use them. Holy water and so on, since we know that the next big battle is bound to happen, we must be fully prepared.

But looking at their actions, the other party couldn't sit still.

"Hey, your name is Li Wei, right? Aren't you famous? Why don't you stop there now and dare not attack? Are you cowardly?"

Li Wei was not surprised that his identity was guessed, he was no longer an unknown person in the nearby area.

He was just a little amused by the other party's low-level provocation: "Listen to the voice, you are the ghost that I killed just now, right? Why don't you dare to come out and face me?"

Ghost got stuck in an instant, of course he didn't dare to do that, because he was afraid that once he really walked out, he would be instantly killed by the other party again!

But someone next to him couldn't help it anymore. The vampire walked out of a group of soldiers immediately, and then he shook the black and red cloak on his back.

"What are you bragging about? It's just a little bit of luck!"

Even though he was far away, Li Wei seemed to be able to hear the strong sourness in his tone, which contained envy and jealousy.

Because the fact that Donna is a hero unit has already been speculated by interested people, and some even speculated about the approximate time when she started following Li Wei, which inevitably made many people jealous beyond recognition, because at that time, they all Some people don't even have a Tier 2 soldier yet!
But Li Wei didn't care, he didn't even pay attention to the other party, but concentrated on continuing to cast spells, so what happened to his luck?If you have the guts, go and repeat this sentence to the goddess of luck, and see if she will kill you with a divine punishment. Luck can also be regarded as a part of strength!

However, these two guys have been trying to encourage themselves to take the initiative to attack, obviously it is some conspiracy.
Thinking of this, Li Wei first asked Cindy to release entropy light armor with a chance of deflecting arrow attacks for himself and Donna and other important subordinates, and then he began to release mage armor and protective arrows for everyone one by one.

Especially the latter, the magic that Li Wei had copied from the old mage before, he had just learned it recently, and he hadn't had time to use it, so he just tried its power.

According to the introduction, during the duration of this magic, when encountering long-range projection or flying arrow attacks, including but not limited to bows, crossbows, muskets, stone throwing, and even cannons, etc., they will be absorbed by the magic first. A certain amount of damage, and then calculate the protected person's own defense power and the like.

With Li Wei's current strength, this magic can absorb up to 13 points of damage each time, and can withstand up to 10 times, which can be said to be quite good. If you add Mage Armor and Entropy Light Armor, Li Wei's own equipment comes with The defensive power of the soldiers, the guard of the bees, the anti-evil ring of Guang Yakong, and many other buffs such as false life, the endurance of the secondary bear, etc., it is almost impossible for him to be killed by ordinary enemies.

As a mage, the skin itself is relatively fragile, so you can't fight unprepared battles, first add the BUFF all over your body.

However, he is casting spells here, but the enemy on the opposite side can't bear it. The lights flashing on the opponent's body are one after another, and they are placed endlessly. If the opponent is really prepared for this, the next battle will definitely be more difficult. , Could it be that they just watched helplessly?
"Boss, what should I do?"

The skeleton soldier and the ghost looked at the vampire at the same time. Among the three of them, the opponent is not only the most powerful, but also the brain is the best. It was the opponent's idea to pretend to be a wild monster to kill the high elves. .

The vampire gritted his teeth: "Damn it, he can't stop playing magic. Fuck him. Anyway, our military rank is not low. Now that the BOSS is not here, it's just for us to have fun!"

"Okay, let's do it!"

"Grandma, I must take revenge this time!"

"That's right, the head was smashed by him. It would be even better if we could get back all the things we dropped!"

Soon the three undead God's Chosen Heroes completely unified their opinions, and then there was a commotion among the skeletons and zombies, and then a four to five meter long, looking very cumbersome war machine was slowly pushed out.

Even though he had never really come into contact with each other, Li Wei immediately became a little serious when he saw the other party's appearance: "Everyone is ready to defend."

Because he recognized it, it was a ballista, because of its huge size, and it often has wheels underneath, so some people called it a ballista!
The ballista is a kind of war machine, and it needs to be controlled by a special person to display its combat effectiveness. Since it is not a unit, it is just an object, so it can also be placed in the space ring, but it takes up a lot of grids, and basically requires 5- 10 grids will do.

But these guys in front of them use such a cumbersome method to push them out, or they are too poor to even afford a higher-level space ring, or it doesn't belong to these guys in essence, they just called it temporarily That's all.

Then Li Wei has to be more careful, and send these guys out to fight first. Is the real owner of this place preparing other conspiracies?

"Haha, do you know you're afraid now?"

With the slightly rampant laughter of the ghost, the ballista was activated suddenly, and there was a scream of being torn apart in the air, and a huge white bone arrow with a diameter of more than an inch and a length of almost one person shot directly at it. over here.

At the critical moment, Bayoru, the elephant man who had been standing in front of Li Wei, took a step forward, trying to block him.

But the ballista's attack power is so powerful, with the sound of "bang", even the powerful Bayoru couldn't help but groaned, and took several steps back before reluctantly stopping.

Although holding a shield in one hand, he successfully resisted the attack, and adjusted the angle of the shield at a critical moment, causing the crossbow to shift slightly, thus reducing its attack power to a certain extent, but because of the powerful force attached to the crossbow Despite the impact, he still lost fifty or sixty blood points on the spot.

Even the shield made of metal has extremely obvious cracks. If it is used twice, this green quality equipment can be thrown away directly, and there is no value for recycling.

Even Donna next to her turned cold, because even if she was a hero unit, she would definitely not be able to withstand an attack of this level, although once she really moved, it would be very difficult for the ballista to hit her. .

But if this is replaced by other relatively weak arms, I am afraid that it is not impossible to be killed on the spot. This is the powerful power of a real war machine.

It's just that the undead have never been good at war machines. Most low-level arms simply don't have enough ability and wisdom to control war machines. It is often almost impossible for capable necromancers and vampires to engage in this kind of passive They regard it as a low-level work task, so this time the enemy used war machines, which was indeed beyond Li Wei's expectations.

Could it be that this is also because of the changes brought about by those god-chosen heroes?

But fortunately, they all know that although the power of war machines is much greater than that of ordinary archers, their attack speed is also much slower, and it is impossible to launch another attack in a short period of time up.

Even so, they have no way to prepare for the battle. The maximum range of the war machine is far better than that of ordinary bows and arrows or magic. Unless they retreat immediately and completely run out of the opponent's range, their best way is to Taking advantage of the gap in the opponent's attack, he rushed forward in one breath.

Of course, if it is not this kind of fortified battle, but if there is a conflict in the plain area, there are more ways to deal with it. Not only is the attack speed of the ballista extremely slow, but it also has no way to predict like an experienced archer. , so they have almost no way to deal with fast-moving targets, or air units.

But before Li Wei opened his mouth to give an order, something strange happened again, streaks of gray-black smoke began to diffuse from the bone giant arrows damaged by the collision, covering an area of ​​more than ten square meters almost instantly.

Suddenly, a series of coughs sounded, and all the subordinates who inhaled the smoke fell into a poisoned state, and would lose their life points continuously for a period of time. Although this situation was not particularly serious, it was very disgusting.

Cindy immediately began to cast purification magic, and at the same time, Li Wei and Donna also took out some antidotes that had been prepared and gave them to the subordinates for use.

At this time, several undead god-chosen heroes in the distance laughed out loud.

"Haha, how about this trick?"

"Let you taste the power of our poisonous ballista!"

Cindy and the others were a little angry when they heard the words, but Li Wei didn't get angry at all, but thoughtful instead.

He very calmly asked his subordinates to retreat a little, trying to avoid resisting the opponent's poisonous ballista attack as much as possible, and then summoned a few medium-sized wind elementals and a few squirrels, and let them face the direction of several arrow towers fly over.

Before they really approached, a series of "bang bang" sounded, and several wind elementals suffered heavy injuries, but almost all of the more agile jaymouses were safe. Only then did Li Wei know that the other party was actually in the There are some musketeers on the arrow tower!

The expressions and moods of the heroes chosen by the undead gods suddenly became a little ugly. They thought it would be a killer move, but who knew that the other party was so cautious?
However, they are still unable to change anything. Although they have successively ambushed and killed dozens of hostile god-chosen heroes in succession recently, their experience points and meritorious service have been recorded in large sums, but their authority here is still extremely limited , There is no qualification to command the musketeers on the arrow tower, and being able to control the ballista is already their limit!
After looking at each other, they nodded in unison and released another killer weapon.

So soon Li Wei and others saw that another ballista was slowly pushed out by the opponent, and then fired.

It's just that unlike the poisonous ballista last time, the arrows fired by this ballista are obviously several times smaller, but this does not mean that Li Wei can ignore its threat, because it directly fired five arrows at once. !

The subordinates who were attacked, whether it was Yu Yong or the half-elf, were directly and severely injured in an instant. Although the power of each arrow this time was several times weaker than that of the previous attack on Bayoru, but the same, their defense In terms of strength and health, it is far inferior to Bayoru.

So even though no poison gas erupted this time, it still kept Cindy, Janet and the others busy for a while.

Although none of them could be killed, the undead in the distance burst into laughter again, but the corners of Li Wei's mouth gradually began to rise after being provoked. He had already seen through the opponent's weakness, and vaguely inquired Part of the truth behind it.

However, to be on the safe side, he continued to let the wind elements and the jays wander around the arrow tower, and he even summoned a few monsters to block the ballista, actively attracting their firepower.

This kind of ballista, like the crossbow arrows used by ordinary arms, cannot be thrown. Once there are enemies blocking the way in front, they can only attack in a straight line, and they cannot go around at all.

And the wind elementals also started to use the wind blades, and the squirrels launched magic missiles the size of ping pong balls, and began to try to further check the situation at the arrow tower, and soon made some progress.

The ones in the arrow tower are neither zombies nor skeletons, but some human beings. Although their faces are also very pale, they are indeed not undead creatures, because under the attack of wind elements and squirrels, the blood flowing from their wounds is bright red blood.

But this is not over yet, Li Wei asked the summoned creatures to continue to harass under the arrow tower, until a few minutes later, after he had thoroughly figured out the rules, he sent back all the summoned creatures who had completed their missions. The original world.

At this time, the god-chosen heroes who replaced those undead races were depressed.

If they didn't know Li Wei's purpose at the beginning, but now after a few minutes, a fool can know that Li Wei is obviously testing the attack distance, attack power and attack interval of his ballistas and musketeers, etc. In total, they just killed a few summoned creatures of the other side, and as a result, all the relevant secrets of their own side were exposed!
