Long Live the Call of Heroes

Chapter 261 Master's Dilemma and New Plan
After killing all the snakemen, the subsequent journey became a lot more monotonous, and there were no unexpected enemies. Li Wei and the others rushed back to the beast castle very smoothly.

I haven't seen you for a few days, and a lot of changes have taken place here. Generally speaking, the various defensive facilities have been further strengthened, and the number of God's Chosen heroes coming and going has also become more.

Even the sharp-eyed Levi noticed that a few guys ran away on the eve of victory in the previous Battle of Black Castle, but now they appeared at the forefront of the battle against the Greenskins.

Although Li Wei somewhat despises them, their arrival has indeed strengthened his own strength, and they may be more reliable than ordinary god-chosen heroes.

Because of the lessons learned from last time, next time these guys make the same mistake when facing a strong enemy or fighting hard, it will be too shameful, they will be directly nailed to the pillar of shame, and they can delete their accounts directly .

When they saw Li Wei's troops, they were somewhat surprised and surprised. They were not surprised by the overall size, but more surprised by the proportion of night elves in his troops.

As a race that has recently been contacted by everyone, the reputation of the night elves is not generally difficult to gain, because they have almost no appeals and no quests to accept.

But now they saw so many night elves appearing in other teams of God's Chosen Heroes. Doesn't this mean that they have been left behind for several blocks?
It's just that when they saw Li Wei, they were relieved. If it was him, it would be understandable. He has been particularly active in many recent wars.

Li Wei also noticed that their troops were stronger than before. By now, basically all the first batch of god-chosen heroes who entered had their own heroes under their command.

Among them, those who are stronger or luckier may have more than one hero, but the race and its strength cannot be fully guaranteed.

Li Wei has seen more than once among a large number of elf troops, heroes of other races such as humans, dwarves, halflings, and even ogres appear very abruptly.

But after thinking about it again, apart from the whiteboard hero Rowan who was thrown into Glory of Blood, he doesn't seem to have any heroes from the elves under his command. It is indeed not easy to recruit the most suitable subordinates.

After officially entering the Beastmaster Castle, Li Wei found that the changes here are even greater. The most obvious thing is that there are many more types of elf troops. Judging from the coats of arms and symbols on their bodies, it is likely to come from a dozen different temples. or reinforcements of the kingdom.

Castle Black and Cinder Ridge Town should have also sent reinforcements. The Sword Master of Hoth, Phoenix Guard, Sisters of Avalon and other mid-level and high-level troops can occasionally be seen, but it is the winged elves that attract his attention the most.

Compared with ordinary high elves, their bodies are generally slimmer, with a pair of huge wings behind them, usually white, occasionally black or brown.

If you ignore their pointy ears, many winged elves look like angels at first glance.

On the contrary, the colors at the ends of their wings are messy, more complicated than the colors of the rainbow. With the previous experience of dyeing the hair of the drow, Li Wei thinks that these colors are probably dyed by themselves.

But looking at the light armor on them, and the daggers and longbows that they generally use as weapons, Li Wei thinks that their combat effectiveness should still be inferior to that of angels of the same rank.

But Li Wei thinks it’s not a big problem, as he has his own Overseer position there, even if it is only halved, it can slightly improve their survivability. If there is a chance, you can recruit some to try.

While thinking about these things, while moving forward, just when Li Wei was about to go directly to the meeting hall to find Mikaela and Reiner, he happened to meet Master and his party from the Temple of Alfa.

Li Wei couldn't help being a little curious when he saw their sad faces and distraught appearances, and they didn't even notice his arrival.

Just now along the way, almost all the God's Chosen heroes had smiles on their faces. Judging from their equipment and the number of troops, they should have gained a lot from the battle against the green skins.

But why did Master and the others have this expression instead?Could it be that he lost some battle?
So he took the initiative to say hello to the other party, Master and the others woke up like a dream, and they all squeezed out a smile: "Ah, Li Wei, you are back? Is everything going well?"

Although he didn't know the real purpose of Li Wei's trip to the Underdark Region, he did probably know where Li Wei was going.

Li Wei smiled: "Although the original goal has not been achieved, there are still some gains."

At the beginning, he wanted to invite Alduin to fight against the orc warrior - Mogro Ogre, and try to get the gem ring in the opponent's hand. Although Alduin did not come now, but in other respects, But he really gained a lot.

Master managed to adjust his mood: "Ah, congratulations."

Li Wei raised his eyebrows, looking at him and the many mages behind him who looked like eggplants beaten by frost: "What's the matter, what kind of problem did you encounter?"

Master opened his mouth, seemingly hesitant to speak, but in the end he decided to tell the truth.

"There's something wrong with our golem."

Li Wei is a little unclear, so what can go wrong with the golems, they are essentially just tools of war, as long as the magic crystals that provide action energy are enough, they don't even need to consider morale issues.

Moreover, Master and the others are already self-taught. Not only can they repair damaged golems by themselves, but they may be able to manufacture 2nd-tier clay golems and 3rd-tier sandstone golems on a small scale. Stronger metal golems and granite golems work hard.

What troubled many of God's Chosen Heroes was no longer simply a money problem, but a problem of insufficient troops. Many people often had money but could not recruit enough troops.

But as long as there are enough materials, the Arcane Temple doesn't even have to worry about the source of troops. Why do they still have this expression?

Master gritted his teeth: "Li Wei, you don't know something, because high-level golems are not only related to the materials needed to make them, but more importantly, consciousness, wisdom, and soul!"

It is precisely because of the serious lack of wisdom that the golems often have very good panel data, but in fact they are not very satisfactory in fighting.

Even when God's Chosen are constantly giving orders, they are often very clumsy in battle.

In the final analysis, it is that they are just puppets with little self-awareness.

And with the improvement of strength, Master and the others gradually found a way to improve this aspect, that is to use the souls of other intelligent creatures.

But playing with the soul has always been a taboo for all lawful and good races, and even the gods.

Just killing the body, or manipulating the soul out of helplessness, is the real heinous crime, which is tantamount to directly making the mortals lose the possibility of returning to the palace of the gods.

This is why the undead, demons, demons, etc. are so hated.

Once Master and the others try to attack from this direction, their camp will be hopelessly degenerate into evil, and everyone will call and beat them.

It is said that there used to be a powerful force composed of many mages who specialized in making golems, but because they attacked the souls and violated the domain of the gods, they were directly encircled and suppressed by the joint forces, and were almost killed in the blink of an eye. Many forces joined forces to destroy it.

It is precisely because of their destruction that many techniques for making golems and gargoyles have been widely spread in the main world.

But if they don't use their souls, their golems will stop at level 3, and it is almost impossible to successfully manufacture even granite golems. In this way, it is tantamount to directly negating their development direction, how can they not be troubled by it Woolen cloth?
With their background, they can still support it now, but it will be more difficult to go in the future.

You must know that in order to drive the army of golems, many of them have made tendentious choices in terms of expertise, magic, equipment, etc., in order to maximize the power of the army of golems.

If they want to change now, it is not completely impossible, but the cost will be really huge, and when they make changes, they will definitely be surpassed by others.

With all these things, it's no wonder that they are frowning.

After listening to Master's series of complaints, Li Wei couldn't help grinning. He really didn't understand this. If he moved to another place, he might also have a headache.

Fortunately, up to now, he is not particularly dependent on those foreign objects. Even if there are no summoned creatures or large troops, with his own magic, as well as Donna, Cindy, and Elegy, they can still play quite well. Good fighting power.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Wei came up with a new idea: "Don't you think about going to the Cathay Dynasty? The terracotta warriors there are much more powerful than ordinary granite golems, or consider the ancient Tomb Kings?"

If the Construct is the most famous, the first is the Cathay Dynasty, and the second is the Tomb Kings.

It is said that at intervals in the long wall of the Cathay Dynasty, there are huge terracotta guards inside. They are usually city walls, and they are the most powerful weapons of war when necessary.

There are eighteen bronze figures in Weijing, the capital, which are said to have been made by the dragon gods of Aurora. They are much stronger than the granite golem in terms of strength and style. Gundam".

Followed by the Tomb Kings, they have more types of constructs, not only limited to human form, but also scorpions, scarabs, big cats and the like.

Compared with ordinary golems, their intelligence is much higher, because it is said that they let the souls of warriors come down inside the constructs and control them like a machine armor.

Master sighed: "We have thought about it, but how could they easily pass on such precious knowledge to us alien races?"

"What's more, the journey is too far. Even if it's closer to Cathay, we still need to penetrate the entire ogre kingdom to reach it."

Li Wei smiled: "Since you find it difficult, you might as well just rely on me. With my strength, I will definitely not treat you badly."

There are also some good quality members in War Paradise, but he hasn't managed the guild much. Except for Qian Thief who has a good relationship with him, those people are basically closer to the Sun Knight or the Light Forger, and he is too lazy to start training younger brothers , it might as well incorporate a ready-made one.

God's Chosen Heroes and the aborigines have their own advantages and disadvantages, and it would be best if they could do both.

And with the contact during this period of time, he felt that Master was very similar to his personality, and the mages he recruited were more like him, and overall they were very compatible.

"Forget it, I'm in such a miserable situation, so stop joking."

Master wanted to refuse subconsciously, but seeing Li Wei's expression, he suddenly realized: "Wait, are you serious?"

Li Wei was noncommittal: "At least, I have one more choice for you."

Up to now, he has almost understood Master's character and ability. Of course, he has many advantages, but in Li Wei's view, he is not particularly qualified as the president.

The vice presidents under him are also in a similar situation. Their energy is more focused on studying magic and making golems. They don't seem to have any long-term plans for the future development direction of the guild.

If you really want to use the golem for a long time, at least you have to get a stable source of materials, such as mines and element channels, right?

I only know that the golem is the main force, the elf troops are the auxiliary, and their magic is the output. This is at best a battle plan, not a real long-term plan!

Master thought for a while, and finally shook his head firmly: "I'm sorry, Li Wei, this guild is not only a temporary interest of mine, but also a joint effort of all of us."

With the continuous development of the guild, he did feel tired and lacking in ability, and knew that with Li Wei's character, once he chose to agree, he would never treat him badly.

There is even a high chance that he will still attribute everyone to his own command. He is only responsible for key direction guidance and calling everyone to fight collectively when necessary.

But it has been less than half a month since the formation of the guild, so let him give up so easily, then he is too shameful!
Li Wei chuckled: "Of course, you don't have to be in a hurry, you haven't seen my true power yet."

It is indeed almost impossible to eat the entire Arcane Temple now, but if his plan can be implemented smoothly, the gap between him and the opponent will only widen.

Dozens of mages in the Arcane Temple can be resettled by capturing a few villages. As for the issue of arms, Sobek's subordinates also have those special constructs!
Of course, if Master really disagreed, it wouldn't be a big deal.

Now he has almost understood that the level of ordinary God's Chosen heroes is basically equivalent to the green-quality aboriginal heroes, such as Donna, Elegy, Alduin and other relatively strong heroes, one can beat several of them.

Not to mention the stronger Reiner and Mikaela, even at the same level, it is almost impossible for ordinary God's Chosen heroes to compete with them.

If Master and the others cannot be included, then I will put more energy on the aborigines next.

For example, Zhou Miyin and Cindy, once they grow into heroes, they will definitely be much stronger than ordinary God's Chosen heroes.

Master's eyes widened in an instant, and he immediately realized that there was something in Li Wei's words. The biggest possibility is that Li Wei's trip to the Underdark region has gained much more than expected!
He confirmed again: "Li Wei, are you really not joking?"

Li Wei smiled: "It depends on your attitude."

If Master doesn't agree, it's just a joke, but it's as if he agrees.
Before Master had time to say anything, a general in battle armor walked up beside him: "Hey, why are you all blocking the door and not going in?"

Master could only hold back the words in his stomach, but he had to admit that he did think about it a little bit, because it was too difficult and tiring to be this bad president, and it was completely different from what he had imagined before. !

Li Wei immediately apologized: "Leiner, something went wrong, I couldn't get that reinforcement."

Reiner waved his hand: "It's okay, we don't need him that much now, the Kingdom of Charis has sent a number of Tier 6 Heavenly Lion Knights, and the Kingdom of Iris also has a team of Gavin Knights arriving, including many Great Eagle Rider and Griffon Rider."

"The next time that arrogant greenskin dares to go up to fight alone, it will be his death. If it is fighting on the ground, my spear is not vegetarian."

Li Wei smiled, not feeling the slightest bit about it, just like what he said before, as a proud high elf, how could it be possible to completely rely on foreign reinforcements?

At Reiner's invitation, Li Wei and Master filed in, and his vice presidents didn't have this kind of treatment, so they could only do what they should do.

In Leiner's view, their identities are not important. What he really values ​​is military positions, prestige, and even popularity, etc. They are not yet qualified enough.

Then they all saw that Mikaela was discussing something with some strange faces, pointing to the battle map on the wall, it should be about the next battle plan.

Seeing Li Wei and the others coming, Mikaela didn't care too much, but nodded slightly, signaling them to listen together first.

Soon Li Wei also learned that although he was not here these days, the offensive of the high elves was not affected at all.

With the courageous battle of a large number of God's Chosen heroes, they not only regained all the lost ground, but also captured dozens of villages and gathering places on the green skin side one after another. Many God's Chosen heroes stood out in the process.

Although the greenskins had tried to launch a counterattack, except for the Mogro Demon Ogre, who achieved certain results by virtue of his own strength, almost all the other aborigines and God's Chosen Heroes fought back. Failed.

Even the mighty Beast Blood Boiling Guild made several moves before, but they failed to get any advantage at all, and instead lost soldiers and generals one after another.

It can be seen that under the harassment of demons and ratmen, the green skins have been distracted too much, and it is already difficult for them to compete with their own side on the frontal battlefield.

Now the entire battle has advanced to the vicinity of Pigherd Town, but it will be difficult to make new progress in the future.

On the one hand, it was because their own supply lines were too long, so they were easily attacked by surprise, and on the other hand, it was also because of the special geographical environment of Pigherd Town.

It was very difficult for our own side to attack the swamp, and the area was too large to encircle it completely, so the greenskins could rely on geography to attack from all directions.

They have lived there for generations, and their familiarity with and adaptation to the terrain is far better than their own, and there are some special units with swamp adaptation skills, which further widens the gap.

So unless this problem is solved, the current situation is almost the best situation.

In the final analysis, it was because one's own side did not have an absolute advantage in strength.

The God's Chosen Heroes and the aborigines in Pigherd Town combined have at least tens of thousands of soldiers, and the overall strength of our own side is several times higher, but we can't do nothing all day long, just block the door, right?

That's why several aborigines said that first, the God-Chosen heroes will guard the village in hand, and then slowly confront each other, and then find a way to deal with them after the green skins and the demons are both defeated.

But Mikaela felt that such a rare opportunity, if he only captured some villages, it could only be regarded as barely avenging his previous revenge, and it was really a waste.

After the threat of the demons receded, maybe the dark elves across the sea would declare war on their side again.

Compared with the greenskins, those evil and ruthless blood relatives are the real threat.

Even Li Wei agrees on this point. The dark elves are the real lawful and evil camp. They do things very well, not to mention that the opponent has a legendary hero leading the team. The threat is definitely not comparable to that of the Red Cloud Tribe.

After some fruitless discussions, Mikaela couldn't help turning her gaze to Li Wei: "Li Wei, do you have any suggestions?"

Li Wei thought for a while: "Since we are temporarily blocked here, how about changing the direction and marching by sea?"

"You mean Broken Bay?" Mikaela glanced at Reiner next to him, "Both of you agree in this regard."

Upon hearing Mikaela's words, Li Wei knew that she must think that this method was inappropriate.

There was no need for Li Wei to ask, she continued: "But it is more difficult to supply by sea. Our navy is currently busy fighting against the sahuagin, and some pirates are rampant in that direction recently. I am afraid I will be in some danger."

Battles at sea are completely different from those on land. The battles there are more three-dimensional. In addition to the ground on the water and the sky, you also need to be alert to the enemies emerging from the water at all times.

Once a ship is damaged, unless it has the ability to swim or fly, the entire ship's troops will die.

"Sahuagin? Wasn't it beaten back by the sea elves before?"

"Indeed, but recently we have confirmed that they are cooperating with the undead, and Umberli of the Wrathful Gods has teamed up with the god of the sahuagin-Sekola, although she seems to have no intention of being an enemy of His Royal Highness Deep Sea Saixila , but it still involved a lot of energy."

After listening, Li Wei also felt a little headache.

The Raging Gods is a collective term for many human gods. Their common characteristic is that they are extremely violent, and their camps are basically chaotic and evil.

This Amberley is the goddess in charge of the ocean and ocean storms. It can be said that few people who run boats on the water can ignore her.

Since most aquatic races have their own racial gods, they don't believe in her, so in fact, the source of her belief mainly lies in intimidating sailors sailing at sea, and citizens of coastal cities and island countries.

In this way, her behavior under normal circumstances can be imagined a little bit. Now that this kind of thing has happened, it is only logical for her to take the opportunity to spread fear.

The sahuagin usually fear other aquatic races. To some extent, this goddess and the god of the sahuagin can be regarded as like-minded.

Under normal circumstances, among the elves and gods, there are many other gods besides Deep Sea Sassera, but besides the queen of the sea, she also has several other well-known titles.

That's the bitch queen, the whore queen, or the bitch queen.

As a god with medium divine power, but she has such a nickname, one can imagine her impression among the gods and mortal things.

Just like other members of the Raging Gods, it's not impossible to mess with it, but once it really falls into a hostile state, the other party can use any means, even if she directly drives the sea to flood all the villages along the coast of the colony, it's not completely impossible things.

Whether she will be beaten up by the elves and gods afterwards is another matter, but the losses of the elves must not be low.

It is precisely because the angry gods have never had a bottom line in doing things. They have made many enemies in the chaotic and evil camp, but they can still live peacefully until now. After all, normal people don't want to be enemies with madmen, and they are still some madmen with good strength.

Although according to what Mikaela said, Amberley seems to have no intention of being an enemy of her own side now, but she is a god of the chaotic evil camp, and her biggest characteristic is capriciousness and failure to keep promises.

For the sake of profit or simply because of her mood, she can change the promise she just made at will. Of course, she can't believe what she said, and her own gods and elves must be fully prepared for this.

"Then only issue missions to God's Chosen Heroes, and let them figure out their own way. As long as the reward is sufficient, I believe many elves are willing to leave."

Mikaela thought about it carefully, and felt that there was no other way.

As the battle situation continued to change, the greenskins were now retreating to Swineherd Town and its rear. Except for those God's Chosen Heroes who had successfully captured the opposing village, the other God's Chosen Heroes had nothing to do.

Just find a mission for them. Anyway, no matter what method they use, as long as they succeed, their side will never be stingy with rewards.

However, she did not make this decision right away. On the one hand, it was because the specific details needed to be further improved, and she also needed to confirm with Princess Belinda the rewards after success and so on.

More importantly, looking at Li Wei's appearance, she knew that maybe he failed to invite the bronze dragonborn back, but he must have gained a lot in other aspects.

Noticing the other party's eyes, Li Wei didn't hide it: "Yes, I do have some information to share with you, about bear goblins, snake people, vampires, and war lizards, etc."

"Also, does any of you know the name 'Zehir'?"

Reiner and Mikaela, who were a little excited when they heard the bear goblin, looked at each other, and they both saw the blankness in each other's eyes.

The other few may be aborigines from other temples or Black Castle, and they are also full of confusion.

"Is it the powerhouse of the snake man?"

"Or goblin bears?"

"There shouldn't be such a name among vampires."

However, Master, who was not expected by Li Wei, unexpectedly provided a little information: "I seem to have heard from a friend of mine from the Tomb King faction that it may be from the Mulhorand god system. A name once used by a certain god."

"But we were just chatting at the time, so I don't know who it is, or I'll ask him to inquire later?"

This answer greatly exceeded Li Wei's expectations. It turned out to be from the crocodile Sobek's gods?
After quickly recalling all the snake-related gods in their pantheon, Li Wei couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth. He thought Master probably didn't need to inquire.

This so-called "Zehir", could it be Seth's vest?

Set has many titles such as Lord of Carrion, Father of Jackal, God of the Desert, and Brother of Giant Serpent, and is the only god in their pantheon that can be related to snakes.

Could it be that he is trying to steal the belief of the snake god-Mershok in the hinterland of Horace?
Well, it seems that someone mentioned on the forum before that Seth is the only god among the many gods who can fight better than his own god king.

His elder brother, Osiris, who is also the current god king, is the god of the dead and agriculture, and his godhead is 11.

His younger brother's godhead is 12, and many priesthoods are related to combat, and he has a very important priesthood-desert.

It is well known that almost all of their believers live in the desert, which gave him a lot of power of faith.

Now it seems that Seth is no longer satisfied with those, and he began to try to develop new beliefs.

It seems understandable why these snake people ran all the way to the dark area under this land.

Since it was stealing, he must not dare to confront it head-on for the time being, and of course he would run away after grabbing it.

In this case, if I killed so many snake people simply and neatly just now, I am afraid that I have offended the other party unknowingly.

Don't look at that there are only a few hundred snake people, but you must know that there may only be a few thousand devout followers of a weak divine power like the original Moonbow Goddess who failed to spread faith among the night elves.

There is no way, there are hundreds of gods in the multiple races of the main world, and the competition for believers and beliefs is not usually fierce.

Specifically, he may need to confirm with the crocodile. As the only evil god in the pantheon, Seth is lawful evil, and the crocodile is neutral evil. The two of them will definitely be relatively familiar.

But if you have really offended the other party, there is nothing you can do about it. Who told the snake people not to have a good camp?They are born to conflict with their high elves, and it is inevitable to meet and fight.

But even if he really offends the other party, Li Wei is not particularly worried for the time being.

Not to mention that the main sphere of influence of the snake god Seth and their gods is still far away from here, and he is a lawful evil camp, so he is not welcome in his own gods, basically he can be equivalent to a lonely family.

As long as he can always get the protection of the two goddesses, Moon Bow and Lilith, Seth will definitely not easily make trouble for him.

Although almost all the nine camps in the elf god system are almost occupied, they are still very united when faced with the invasion of foreign enemies. What happened in the colony this time is enough to explain everything.

What's more, Seth was originally stealing faith, and if things were exposed, he should be more worried about another snake god-Melshok making trouble for him!

　The information of the Mulhorand god system is being sorted out, try to post it in the settings this afternoon, thank you for your votes~
