Long Live the Call of Heroes

Chapter 213 Entering the Black Castle
Early in the morning, the alarm bells rang in the town, and thousands of aboriginal troops were mobilized and began to march in the direction of Fort Black.

At the same time, more than one quartermaster was waiting there early, issuing tasks to all the heroes chosen by the gods, and Li Wei and the light caster also took the task together.

As Li Wei expected, the name of the task is to recapture Black Fort, but it is not accomplished overnight. This task is roughly divided into two stages. The first stage is to capture all the surrounding villages first, and the second stage is to encircle and attack together. black castle.

And different from before, this time the first stage turned out to be the God's Chosen heroes as the main force, and they can freely choose the direction and village to attack.

After it is confirmed, if there are still unallocated villages left, or if the troops in a certain direction are weak and cannot defeat the demons entrenched there, the aborigines will send reinforcements to join the battle.

Of course, if the aborigines make a move, the rewards will definitely decrease a lot.

After reading the mission description, everyone was very excited. When I followed the aborigines before, although I played very well and rarely failed, but in the same way, most of them could only follow the aborigines to drink soup .

But it's different now, as long as they are strong enough, both the meat and the soup are theirs!
"Li Wei, which one should we choose? Do you want to choose two at a time?"

"Oh? You think we're capable of eating two at the same time?"

The Lightcaster smiled: "We have also attacked nearly 10 villages in the past few days, and we still have some understanding of the strength of the defenders there. We were not sure at first, but if you join, let's fool around with other guilds." People, it may not be impossible to win two at a time."

Li Wei thought for a while, and finally shook his head and refused: "No, I think it's safer. The high elves let us work hard this time, and it seems that they gave us the opportunity to make meritorious deeds. But thinking about it the other way around, this will Could it be that they were fishing?"

Although there are a lot of heroes among the high elves, he doesn't believe that there are no heroes among the demons in Castle Black. Otherwise, even if there are more demons and stronger demons, the war wouldn't have dragged on for so many days. Not much progress yet.

From a rough look now, at least five or six thousand troops of the aborigines have already left the city, plus hundreds of god-chosen heroes, even if each god-chosen hero only brings a hundred subordinates, this is already tens of thousands The strength of the troops has increased, and with such a large army dispatched, it is impossible for the demons to have no reaction at all.

The Lightcaster was taken aback for a moment, he thought about it carefully, it was really the case, he was indeed dazzled by joy just now.

But then he thought about it, and frowned again: "But if so many of us only attack one village, and we have to compete with other people, if we average it out, there won't be much rewards, and Li Wei you And it’s so strong, wouldn’t it be a bit of a waste of combat power?”

Although his words were a bit tactful, Li Wei was not a fool. Of course he knew what the other party meant. There were not many rewards in the first place, and he wanted to take away a big head. I am afraid that the others could only drink some soup like before.

This means that the relationship between the two of them is not bad, so it can be said that if it is replaced by someone else, it is likely to be misunderstood as having an opinion on Li Wei.

So Li Wei laughed directly: "So I won't participate in you. I plan to choose a remote village with a long distance that is disliked by everyone."

Such a village will definitely be rejected by other god-chosen heroes, and will have a greater chance of getting help from the aborigines.

Moreover, Li Wei had roughly guessed that it would be those aborigines who would come to support them, and all that was left was to gamble on a chance.

The Lightcaster immediately followed suit: "Okay, then it's decided, we'll also choose a more remote one."

Facts have proved that, at least until now, none of the decisions made by Li Wei have made mistakes.

The Lightcaster quickly left with other guild members, and Li Wei also took the troops, ready to officially set off. With their current strength, no matter which village they go to, they will definitely gain a lot.

But as soon as he looked up, he saw that Lisa Dilan seemed to be in a daze, and he couldn't help but sigh softly: "Let's go, Lisa Dilan, although you have experienced this setback, I believe that with your strength, you will always be able to return to the top , and even further possibilities.”

This is not to deceive the other party, because he has already confirmed from Mikaela that as long as the military merit points are sufficient, and the race and camp are also consistent, even his subordinates may serve as military positions.

Humans like Cindy and Simon, as well as half-elf archers, can become low-ranking officers. As for pure-blooded high elves like Lisa Dilan, they can be promoted to even higher ranks.

It's a pity that Donna is an Amazon, and she can't take up any military position for the time being, but it's only temporary. Mikaela also told him that if his military position is really high enough, he can even confer it on his own after spending a certain amount of money. The subordinates are in the military.

Let alone the Amazons by then, even dwarves or lizardmen, if he wanted, he could let them serve as military positions.

Of course, that is still very far away from the current Li Wei. If he wants to do this, at least he has to wait for him to be promoted to general.

Lisa Dilan was a little embarrassed, but he immediately changed the subject: "I see, Levi"

After a little hesitation, he continued to grit his teeth and said, "My lord."

Obviously, he is very unaccustomed to changing his words about his teammates who were fighting side by side a few days ago.

Fortunately, Li Wei didn't care about this, he just waved his hand casually: "You should call me Li Wei, it doesn't matter what you call me. Mikaela is here, do you want to say hello to her? Or avoid it?"

Lisa Dilan shook her head: "No, let's forget it. I have neither friendship nor grudges with her. Now I am just one of the cavalry captains under your command, Li Wei. I will pretend that I don't know her."

Li Wei didn't force it either, he just greeted Mikaela with a smile, not only because of the kindness the other party had shown him since the first meeting, but also because the other party rode forward while taking out a few small coins from the space ring. The thing, presumably should be a prop about detecting the undead.

Sure enough, there are a total of 4 odd objects called surveying compasses, which can detect relatively strong necromantic energy gathering places within a diameter of 500 meters, or a large number of undead. As long as they are placed on the body, they will continue to take effect.

Now they all belong to Li Wei, and Mikaela doesn't care whether he will give them to others. Anyway, as long as the hidden undead are found or crusade, the town will give a lot of rewards.

Then Mikaela also told Li Wei that she had already told Princess Belinda about the legendary black dragon and the half-goat who was suspected of being a demon, and the princess would arrange it.

And Duke Belinda indicated that she needn't worry too much, as long as she was in Ash Ridge Town, no matter what level of demon the opponent was, it was absolutely impossible to cause too much commotion.

As soon as these words came out, Li Wei immediately understood that the guy covered in green flames yesterday must be a powerful reinforcement.

In addition, because Li Wei was active in fighting against evil before, discovered the conspiracy of the undead this time, and he also has his own village, the kingdom will soon canonize him as an official nobleman.

In addition to the promotion of status and a little attribute bonus, after becoming a nobleman, if there is no special reason, his initial prestige level among all the towns and villages in the ten kingdoms of the high elves and their colonies They will be directly upgraded to friendly, and it will be a little more convenient for him to go out and walk in the future.

After saying this, Mikaela glanced at Lisa Dilan in the crowd again, but in the end he didn't say anything, just turned around and left: "Hehe, Li Wei, be careful, don't die~"

Lisa Dilan, who had been paying attention to her, frowned suddenly. What does this mean?Does it mean that following Li Wei will bring him disaster?
But Li Wei smiled instead, because he knew that his speculation had succeeded again.

Princess Belinda was indeed fishing, but this time the bait was a little too delicious. It turned out to be hundreds of god-chosen heroes and their troops. I don't know when the demons will take the bait?
Glancing at Lisa Dilan who was frowning and wondering what was going on, Li Wei couldn't help laughing even more. He patted the other person's shoulder vigorously: "What are you thinking about? This is not like the usual you."

"Don't worry too much, all you need to do now is to take the Alion predators to investigate intelligence and destroy more demons!"

This guy really wasn't bragging, but in just one night, he brought back a small team of each of the two types of Alion, which can be regarded as slightly supplementing his own combat effectiveness.

Li Wei adjusted it a little bit and left the night elf hunters in the temple of the Moon Bow Goddess. Their attack range is too short, and they may suffer heavy casualties when facing demons. After all, even songs with a short range The fireballs of Ge and Magog are also much stronger than the range of their moon blades.

Lisa Dilan suddenly realized, that's right, the top priority now is to deal with the devil, as long as his contribution is great enough, that hateful nobleman will not be able to prohibit himself from joining the army forever!
Thinking of this, he first apologized to Li Wei, and then directly led the Alion predators excitedly and ran to the front to open the way.

Similarly, Julia and Simon also followed, the former temporarily leading the Amazon moa cavalry archers, and the latter leading the Elyon cavalry.

Seeing their high spirits, Li Wei couldn't bear it anymore, and he didn't know how many soldiers they would have left after this battle.

Soon Li Wei and the others followed the large army out of the city and walked all the way without encountering any enemies at all. No matter if they were mindless beasts or stupid goblins or kobolds, they didn't dare to show their faces at this time. Let Li Wei and others enjoy a rare peaceful journey.

In this way, he has been advancing for dozens of miles, and when he gradually entered the sphere of influence of Black Castle, Li Wei found that the surrounding environment began to change a lot.

The most intuitive thing is that a large area of ​​land has turned purple-black or purple-red, which is corrupted by the power of demons, and all the plants have been reduced to ashes. As for the obvious rise in temperature, it is insignificant in comparison .

At this time, the troops also began to gradually diverge. The main force of the regular army was still marching towards Black Fort, and many God's Chosen heroes began to march towards the village they had chosen before.

Since Li Wei chose the farthest, they needed to walk dozens of miles more than others, which seemed more dangerous at first glance, because they needed to make a small half-circle to go behind Black Castle to launch an attack.

But the good thing is that he has very few competitors. Besides him, there are only three god-chosen heroes in total, and they all seem to be the kind of lone warriors who are not very good at strength. It is estimated that once they really fight the demons, the three of them will join forces. It would be nice to get a couple of successes away.

And with the army of high elves pressing down on the border, even if the demons notice them, it is almost impossible to send reinforcements from Black Castle. They are actually not as dangerous as others think.

Soon after that, he also received a system prompt saying that there were aborigines helping him.

Li Wei also took a little more seriously, and began to release summoning magic continuously, letting the inspector Yakong and others fly away. Strictly speaking, this place is already the territory of demons.

Less than a quarter of an hour later, the Overseer Archon reported that he found some hundreds of Amazons chasing them.

After sharing this information, Donna next to her was a little surprised, but Li Wei smiled instead.

Sure enough, the high elves asked these mercenaries to support them, and they didn't expect that they were lucky this time. With a one-third chance, they still happened to choose these Amazons.

Moreover, three Amazon heroes were dispatched at once. If it was an ordinary small village, they probably wouldn't need to do it themselves. They would be able to kill each other, right?
But this time the target was behind the black castle. It was likely that the high elves had not been raided several times before, and the defense might be stronger. It was probably because of this that the elves sent all the Amazons over.

After actually coming to the front, the Amazons were also a little surprised, and then they all smiled at Donna: "Sister, it seems that we are quite destined."

Donna also responded to the other party with a smile, and tried to find out the other party's background.

However, the Amazons had obviously done their homework before. They just chatted with smiles, but they almost never responded to Donna's questions, which made her feel a little helpless.

But even so, it also made the other god-chosen heroes very envious. In addition, they also saw the strength of Li Wei's army, so they took the initiative to come forward, trying to get acquainted.

Li Wei has nothing to do, although he didn't intend to count on the opponent's combat power at the beginning, but after all, their target is the same village, and when a battle breaks out, the opponent can also share the firepower a little.

This leisurely state did not last long, because small groups of demons began to appear continuously.

Before Li Wei could speak, several Amazons showed a fanatical desire to fight, and they were very excited to take the lead in attacking.

Since they have a considerable number of cavalry and archery troops, they move faster and their strength is not bad, so when Li Wei and his main force arrive, the battle is basically over.

And whether it's experience points or loot, they want it all.

Li Wei didn't care too much about this, but Lisa Dilan and Julia who went ahead were a little uncomfortable, because this was originally their task.

But Amazon has a large number of people, and they can't grab it even if they want to
But this trivial matter is irrelevant, because as they continue to advance, the frequency of encountering demons and the strength of the opponent are constantly expanding.

In the beginning, it was just a small group of Tier 2 Ape Demons and Slaughter Demons, occasionally mixed with a few Tier 3 Cerberus dogs, but later on, dozens of Cerberus dogs and two to three hundred demons charged together at every turn.

At the same time, there are often hundreds of Quasai demons accompanying them in mid-air. Although these little guys are extremely weak, they are super fast, and they are very agile, and they are not afraid of death. At the cost of his own life, he must hold back the enemy.

The Amazons had probably never encountered this kind of enemy before, so they were caught off guard, even though there were three hero units, they still suffered a small loss on the spot.

After all, most of their troops are cavalry or archer units, less than one-fifth of pure infantry, and all beasts are land-based. The most feared is this kind of air force that can ride on the face at high speed.

But fortunately, this is the enemy's territory after all, and they are still very vigilant, so they didn't put too much distance away from Li Wei and the others. When the main force caught up, Donna led them to launch a few waves of arrow rain After that, their little predicament was solved smoothly.

Donna's combat attribute was originally specialized in offense, and after learning the basic archery, it became even more powerful.

Therefore, under the rain of arrows, all living beings are equal, no matter whether it is a demon of level 1, level 2 or level 3, there is only one way to die.

At this moment, several Amazon heroes who were still smiling, all of them restrained their smiles, because they were all aware of this problem. This fellow from Paradise Island was stronger than any of them!
So Li Wei was very satisfied to find that after this battle, the Amazons' attitude towards themselves has obviously changed a lot.

Originally, although they looked good on the surface, they were more like wearing a mask called a smile, but after seeing Donna's true strength, they respected her from the bottom of their hearts.

From this point of view, in a sense, they are somewhat similar to the Spartans. They all fear the strong. Should it be said that they believe in the same group of gods?

But their attitude made Donna feel a little uncomfortable, because she really planned to make friends with each other at the beginning. After all, after leaving her hometown, it was the first time she saw the same clan, even if it was from Luschi. Ya's mysterious kin, but now her expectations have been completely dashed.

Although these fellows are very similar to themselves in terms of appearance and strength, the overzealous admiration and respect they have for the strong in their bones is not what the Amazons on Paradise Island will have.

Moreover, I just showed off my archery skills, and you have become like this. Then when you see Li Wei's magic later, what will your attitude be?
Although she didn't want to think so, she really felt that these fellow clansmen were too ignorant.
After learning this lesson, the Amazons obviously restrained a lot, no longer acting alone, but with Levi's main force.

And after fighting more than a dozen small encounters in succession, the lost soul also rose to another level, and successfully recalled the magic-wind language skill he had mastered in his lifetime.

Li Wei glanced at it and found that this thing is somewhat similar to the information technology used to monitor the archons. The effect is to send a sentence to the destination through the power of the wind, but the distance is a little farther away. It is not very useful, but it is still okay. .

At the same time, after many battles, Li Wei also roughly figured out the combat methods of these Amazons and their strength.

They basically focus on long-distance and try to avoid melee combat. If they are forced to fall into melee combat, they will give priority to their mounts and beasts around them as the main force, and they will provide assistance, or try to distance themselves from the enemy. Life-saving is the priority, followed by killing the enemy.

This is highly recognized by Li Wei. Experience points and equipment are important, but the more important thing is to survive, otherwise everything is empty talk.

As for the combat effectiveness of those Amazon heroes, at least in his opinion, they are not very good. They should be less than level 5, and the battle level will be lower, but their combat awareness is relatively good, and their body The equipment is also good.

Li Wei secretly speculates that they probably lacked the opportunity for a real bloody battle before, and now that they are released as mercenaries, it is estimated that they have gained some experience and knowledge, but they do not know whether the mastermind behind the scenes is their leader, the queen, or those A true god.

In addition, Li Wei also found the battle flag of the bird and a horn hanging on the waist of the piranha, which should be treasures of the battle, but they don't know whether it is a relatively large use limit or the cooling time is too long, so they Never used it before.

But by analogy, the eldest forest anaconda among the three probably also has a battle treasure.

But Li Wei is not in a hurry. They are useless now, maybe because they don't think it is necessary, but when they reach the village they are going to attack, they probably won't be able to hide their clumsiness anymore.

Although the biggest impression of the demons is that they are warlike and have no brains, but my group killed at least a thousand or two thousand demons along the way, and the marching route is so obvious, but there is a thinking demon in that village If it exists, it will definitely be ready for battle!
After two more small-scale encounters, they finally crossed a distance of more than ten miles and arrived at their destination.

This time, the Amazons did not compete for the first place, but came to ask Li Wei with some humility, how to launch the attack.

Li Wei was a little surprised at first, but when he saw the state of the village, he immediately understood the reason.

I don't know if it's because it is far away from Ash Ridge Town, and there is a black castle in front of it, and it hasn't encountered any attacks before, so this village has been well built by the demons.

At a glance, the whole village is emitting red light. The fence and the horses seem to be able to spew flames. There is even a half ditch dug outside the village, but there is no water stored in it. It is a shallow layer of red-red magma.

It is conceivable that once they are really finished, the magma alone can cause headaches for most melee troops.

And they seemed to have sensed that something was wrong in advance. Now, in their sight, at least hundreds of thousands of demons were waiting at the entrance of the village.

Although most of them are 2nd-level ape demons and slaughter demons, there are also 3rd-level horned demons, hellhounds, and even 4th-level existences such as Yanxi hellhounds and horned demon warlords. The two-story wild boar-headed demon is a fifth-level soul demon.

As for how many demons there are in the village, who is the leader, and what strength is it, it is not clear for the time being, because the same kind of demons seem to be basically carved out of the same mold.

But the most noticeable thing should be standing in the corner of the village, the seven or eight sentry towers are about ten meters high, and there are a bunch of long-range demons such as Magog and Gog standing densely on them. It's time to fight forward.

Compared with ordinary villages, the defensive power here is much stronger. It really deserves to be a demon that can directly connect to the bottomless abyss. In terms of military strength alone, ordinary races cannot compare with it.

Li Wei looked around for a week: "What's your opinion?"

The Amazon anaconda first smiled and said: "Listen to you, we Amazons are not good at siege, and we were originally assigned to assist you."

This is really not her modesty. If it was an encounter on the plain, she would not be afraid of the other party, but now when she saw the other party's sentry towers and walls, she only felt a headache.

Although there are some wild beasts around them, most of them are relatively weak. Among other things, I am afraid that a 6-meter-high judging soul demon can easily kill them all.

The other god-chosen heroes also nodded repeatedly, indicating that they were doing the same.

If they didn't know Li Wei well at the beginning, but along the way, they were convinced, so what opinions did they have to express? Just follow behind and make soy sauce.

Li Wei looked at the heavily guarded village in the distance, calculated the distance between each other, and suddenly laughed.

Indeed, if there is a strong attack, I really don't know how many troops will be killed or injured.

But the demons have a fatal weakness, that is, the only two long-range units in the village, the attack power of Magog and Gog is not too far away, even if they stand on the sentry tower, it is actually the same.

However, he also has the ability to increase the distance of spells, as well as the powerful micro meteor. The range of this magic seems to be slightly longer than that of the opponent.

And in the case of using projectiles, long-range units such as Donna can almost get the opponent. If this is the case, of course we have to make good use of it!

Although the attention of the demons should be on the main army of the aborigines, but Night Changmeng Duoduo, it is better to resolve the battle as soon as possible and try to draw the opponent out.

As soon as he turned around, he saw Donna looking at him with a smile on her face, obviously she already knew what to do.

Although the hit rate would drop to a certain extent when using the projectile, but the demons were so dense that she didn't need to think about it at all.

He smiled and nodded towards the other party, and then took out the Reaper ballista that had been useless for a long time: "Which of you can operate this thing?"

"Me, me, my combat skills include elementary ballistics!"

A god-chosen hero ran over with his hands raised, and quickly controlled it decently.

This made Li Wei more satisfied. The ballista's attack power is not low, and it has siege skills, which still poses a great threat to the sentry tower.

"Okay, pass my order. The melee troops are in a defensive formation. Donna is ready to throw. All other long-range units are aimed at the entrance of the village. Let's force them out!"
