Long Live the Call of Heroes

Chapter 293 Followers of Veshalon
However, soon after another inspector Yakong sent new news, he felt that the problem seemed a little serious.

In addition to leading a large number of zombies, skeletons, dire wolves, ghouls, tomb ghosts, and barren grave guards, these undead also carried more than a dozen corpse trucks with the army.

Some of them are burning gray-white ominous corpse fire, which can strengthen the power of the surrounding undead and slow down the recovery speed of all non-undead magic in a large area.

Others carry lodestone clocks that boost the defenses of the undead and slowly heal them with the power of death.

With the cooperation of the two, the strength of all the surrounding undead will be greatly improved.

Since the increase of the corpse truck is a fixed value, not a ratio, the lower the rank of the unit, the greater the increase it will receive.

In addition, necromancers themselves have the ability to strengthen the undead, even if it is a level 1 skeleton soldier, its strength will be improved to a considerable extent, and it is not impossible to double the attributes.

Of course, if this is the case, Li Wei may just pay attention to the opponent, but he will not think that the problem is serious. After all, the basic attributes of the skeleton soldiers are too low, and it is impossible to pose any threat to them if they are doubled.

And he already knew that once he stepped into the Underdark, he might come into contact with the legendary Necromancer-Herman Gost and his unique corpse cart.

However, there are more than forty necromancers around the corpse truck, and more importantly, there are some special coats of arms on their mage robes and pale bone staffs.

With a black hexagon as the background, it is a grinning skull wearing a crown, which is the holy symbol of the Lich God-Visherun.

If God’s Chosen heroes wear this holy emblem, it’s actually not a big problem, that is, they believe in the Lich God on the surface to gain power. God’s Chosen Heroes don’t really have any piety to the gods at all. .

But if so many aborigines wear it collectively, it can only mean one thing, they are all believers in the Lich God!

Although the Lich God Velsharoon is only a weak divine power, but he is vain, selfish, and narrow-minded, but he is definitely not a god to be provoked.

In fact, any gods involved in magic, war, death, killing, destruction, etc., will have a stronger combat power, and Velsharon, who involves two aspects at the same time, can completely beat most other weak gods.

And he has a strong background too.

He was originally an ordinary lich, and was promoted to a subordinate god by Talos, the god of storm and destruction, but Talos, as a chaotic and evil camp, of course would not be so generous, he just wanted to fatten the pig and kill it for meat That's all.

Visharron was keenly aware of this, so he immediately turned to Azuth, the human mage god, and indirectly received the protection of Mystra, the main god of Azuth.

Mystra is known as the "Mother of Magic". In this world where magic is king, she is likely to be the most powerful god.

She even has the ability to prevent other gods from casting spells. It is said that this is because most magic needs to mobilize energy through a special network called the "magic net" before it can be released, and she is the real embodiment of the magic net.

Of course, most, not all.

Things like Cindy's psychic powers, green-skinned gokmao-type magic, shaman's natural power, Aurora's yin and yang power, etc., are not entirely magic and can be unlimited.

In addition, after spending a certain amount of money, you can also cast spells through the "Shadow Demon Net" of Shar, the goddess of the night;

A very small number of talented mages can pass through the mysteries of the elements and cast spells across the magic net;

A race with a god of magic can grant magic to its followers, etc.

But even so, it is still not enough to change the fact that Mystra is the strongest magic god. The only ones who can compare with her are Corellon, the god king of the elves, and the Cathay Dragon Emperor.

In addition to these, there is another point worthy of Li Wei's attention.

Under normal circumstances, the undead cannot generate any power of faith, but this god of liches, his followers include necromancers and liches and other high-level undead creatures, he is also the only one who can A god that recruits undead creatures as followers.

You must know that even if it is the powerful god of death-Kranvor, his followers are basically people who are about to die, undead hunters, and morticians, rather than undead creatures. This is where God’s specialness can be seen.

Of course, by recruiting undead creatures as believers, he also attracted the hatred of the God of Death.

Although he is the god of death, Kelanwo is in the lawful neutral camp. He believes in "ashes to ashes and dust to dust". What he hates most is the desecration of the corpses and souls of the dead.

It is worth mentioning that the Mother of Magic and the Grim Reaper used to be a couple, but the Mother of Magic, who was in the neutral good camp, finally chose to protect the Lich God, who was in the neutral evil camp.

This made the relationship between the former lovers very tense now, which can be regarded as an illustration of the wisdom and skill of the Lich God from the side. He must have persuaded her with a special reason that the mother of magic could not refuse.

Now that Vishharon's believers are appearing in the Underdark on a large scale, this has to make Li Wei think: this time the vampire Dracula, who is also an undead creature, is trying to confer God, is he also involved in it?

He thinks this chance will be very high, otherwise, even if Dracula succeeds in becoming a god, he will not be able to have any believers among the undead, unless he can get the power to make undead creatures generate faith for him from Vishharun secret.

In this way, the problem will be a big one. It is related to the real gods. Even if Teclis and Paine come together, it may not be able to solve it, let alone a little mage who has just been promoted to the classic level. up!
Donna, Elegy, Cindy, Caijin and Suifeng all looked at Li Wei whose expression had changed. Although they didn't know what happened, it was obvious that Li Wei had encountered a problem.

However, after a short period of consideration, Li Wei finally made a decision. Even if he offended the sect of the Lich God, the price would be extremely high, but now the other party is almost at his door.

There are more than forty necromancers, almost each of whom has two or three hundred undead. If this allows them to successfully reach the Glory of Blood, even if there are Naer and Rowan there, there are many defenders, and there are also celestial creatures In the coordinated defense, I'm afraid it won't last long.

Velsharoon itself is a neutral evil faction, but most of his followers are chaotic and evil necromancers and liches. There is only one possibility when he sees the living, and that is to fight immediately until all one side dies!
As God's Chosen Hero, how can he let the opponent beat him for nothing and not fight back?
Even if the other party is a follower of Velsharon, there are two goddesses, Moonbow and Lilith, and even the entire elven pantheon behind him!
"Everyone prepares to attack, kill those necromancers first, and notify Blood Glory and Sun Knight, steal them, and after leaving the necessary defensive troops, try to attack from other directions and encircle us."

"Since these guys have no good intentions, let them all die here!"

Following Li Wei's order, everyone began to prepare for the battle, and the legal troops cast various buff spells one after another. Caijin and her sisters were also preparing to command the Harpy to charge against the necromancer among the enemies.

Most middle and low-level legal units will subconsciously try to distance themselves from the enemy after being approached by the enemy. In this way, they will win more attack opportunities for their long-range troops.

Although Caijin also understands that based on the strength of the harpies, once they charge, they may be gone forever, but if she can really change the lives of some necromancers, she will definitely make a lot of money Specially earned.

But after confirming the general identity of the enemy, Li Wei reminded her again not to be careless.

Wild necromancers may be easy to deal with. Those guys who believe in the Lich God are organized and disciplined to do evil. The magic they know and the undead creatures they control will definitely be more and stronger.

Caijin listened to his warning, so she sent more catmen to reconnaissance, and tried to analyze the composition of the opponent's troops to avoid any accidents.

Not to mention, she will gain something soon.

These undead are not just resting there, or the undead have no physical attributes at all, so they don't need to rest.

The reason why the other party stayed there was because there seemed to be an ancient large cemetery in that abandoned village. At this moment, those undead people were digging up the corpses wantonly, and they probably planned to use the corpses as spare troops and resources.

In addition to the regular undead arms, there are two special types of troops in the opponent's army.

The first type is dozens of humanoid bodaks with gray bodies and slender heads.

They can be regarded as an enhanced version of ordinary zombies. In addition to greatly improving their attack and defense, they have certain resistance to fire and lightning, and they also have a very terrifying stunt-death stare.

Once they stare at a certain target, if the other party's physique, level and other attributes are not up to standard, they will be instantly killed on the spot and transformed into a brand new Bodak corpse in a very short time.

Repeated this several times, if they could not be dealt with immediately at the beginning, it is very likely that after a quarter of an hour, they would face an undead army composed of Boda corpses.

This really scared Caijin into a cold sweat, because she knew that if she didn't pay attention and let the harpies wander around in front of Boda's corpse, they might all become the enemy's help.

The little sisters of Caijin were also a little scared. They originally planned to send out their own hero units, or simply fight in person, but now it seems that they should forget it.

Death Gaze is an instant death skill. Even if it is an existence whose strength is far superior to that of Bodakshi, if you are unlucky, you may be hit by it. If it is not necessary, it is better not to gamble on the probability.

The only consolation is that there are not many of them, and the release distance of the death gaze is also relatively short, less than 10 meters. If necessary, Donna can kill them all with a round of arrows.

The second type is some disgusting skeletons that seem to retain internal organs and tongues. They are called Mohun corpses, and their strength is slightly stronger than that of Boda corpses.

Enemies killed by them will quickly turn into ordinary zombies. At the same time, their several-foot-long tongues also have paralyzing touch skills, which can be said to be the nemesis of melee units.

On the whole, their average strength should be at least level 3. If there are elites among them, their strength may be even stronger.

At this moment, they are surrounded by many necromancers, and the total number is four to five hundred. If Cai Jinmao rashly sends troops to kill them, I am afraid that they will really suffer heavy losses.

At the same time, the appearance of these kinds of evil and disgusting undead also made Li Wei and the others more and more convinced that the status of these necromancers in Vishharon's sect is definitely not low.

Because these two special undead races were all researched and created by Vishharun personally guiding his liches and necromancers.

The Lich God and his believers are very fond of researching and creating new undead creatures. After the research is successful, they often release them to do evil to test their abilities.

Even when they are interested, they will personally take them to participate in actual combat.

And when necessary, they would even steal the burial objects in the tomb as funds, dig up the corpses in them as materials, or openly spread the magical knowledge of how to create and transform the undead, and so on.

It is also because of this that the Lich God Visharron has attracted the hatred of almost all good and most neutral gods. If he hadn't embraced the thighs of Azuth and Mystra, he would have been beaten by the crowd long ago Lethal.

Originally, Li Wei only heard about it, but now he has really seen the other party's bad behavior.

At the same time, it also caused Li Wei to feel a little bit of resistance and disgust towards those two gods. He knew that Vishharon was an evil person, but still chose to protect him. They could be regarded as covering up!
Although the mood was very complicated, Li Wei still quickly cast a lot of summoning magic and assigned his subordinates their own tasks.

Since you want to fight, you should fight beautifully, and don't give the opponent a chance to fight back!
Soon many troops quickly approached each other and began to enter the most suitable position to launch an attack.

Not to mention, the opponent's position is indeed very suitable for large-scale combat.

In many places in the Underdark, those thick rock walls often become obstacles, resulting in a very low distance from the top of the head, and the long-range units cannot perform well.

But at this moment, the opponent's main force was about [-] to [-] meters away from the top of the cave. Not only would Tangna's shooting not be affected, but Caijin's flying troops also had enough space to move around.

I don't know if they are busy digging up the corpses, or they don't have any scouts, they didn't respond at first.

But as it got closer, it seemed that because of the undead's special sense of life, some ghouls finally made a slight commotion.

Even though there was still some distance from the best range of his own side, in order to avoid any accidents, Li Wei made a decisive decision and directly ordered the entire team to launch an attack.

As a mage, he can understand best, the threat that the two sides can pose to the enemy is completely different between a mage who is attacked by surprise and a mage who is prepared!
Following his order, Donna shouted first, and she and the Avalon's magic arrows were the first to guide, and then hundreds of arrows from Skyhawk Marksman and others flew over together, killing dozens of people instantly on the spot. Head Necromancer.

At the same time, Li Wei was also muttering, and used the fifth-level magic that he finally mastered after several days of study-the head of flames!

I saw a huge skeleton several meters high and made entirely of flames appear out of thin air, and then, like a galloping bison, it raged in the camp of the demon soul corpses, forcibly plowing out a path about two meters wide and long. A road of flames reaching tens of meters.

Then Suifeng and the others' various systems of magic, the druids, the harpies, the wind witches, the lightning arrows of the electric witches, the wind blades, etc., all flew over together, and instantly emptied a small piece of Boda Corpse.

Just one sneak attack, for the three most threatening enemies, they have lost more than half of their troops.

At the same time, the Scarlet Flame Warhawk, Dapeng, and Harpy under Caijin and others, the Griffin and Giant Eagle under Li Wei, and Suifeng's flying units also descended from the sky together, launching an attack on the necromancers. raid.

Although the number of the enemy army is large, which is several times that of our own side, if the most intelligent necromancers can be killed first, the threat of the remaining undead will be greatly reduced.

But the enemies they encountered this time were not ordinary wild monsters, but well-trained elites who had engaged in many mass killings.

Facing the sudden attack, the necromancers also reacted very quickly. After hearing a few "bang bang", a large black mist instantly filled the air, completely covering their own positions.

Although Donna still shot the second wave of arrows according to her previous impression, the black mist still seemed to have a certain protective effect, and the damage they caused this time was significantly reduced.

The harpies still insisted on swooping down, but in the blink of an eye, with a series of screams, there was no movement in the black mist.

Immediately afterwards, the necromancers also started to counterattack. First, several blasts of ice, acid balls, ripples of death, and a series of bone teeth, bone arrows, and bone spears also shot up into the sky, instantly killing the harpies. It's a mess.

Although they are necromancers, of course it is impossible for them to only know some dark magic. Most necromancers will have some backup methods.

The undead who had been standing in place also let out low-pitched roars. Dire wolves, ghouls, and tomb ghosts were the first to pounce on Li Wei and the others, and then the barren grave guards also started in a neat formation. March.

Li Wei originally thought that some undead creatures would become weakened and out of command due to the loss of their masters, but now it seems that under the cover of the black mist, other necromancers have already received the relics of those war dead for the first time. Controlled all the undead without a master.

At the same time, several grayish-yellow clouds that didn't look very clean appeared out of thin air in the formation of the Silver Guard and Cindy's ogres.

Li Wei's face immediately changed slightly, because he was very familiar with this trick, which was the stinky cloud technique in the third-level magic.

Forget about ogres, they can basically ignore this move, but the silver guards are different, even if they have a certain magic resistance and good physical strength, it is difficult to last too long!

"Follow the wind, immediately use the wind-making technique to counteract the effect of the stinking cloud technique, priests hurry up and purify!"

Suifeng immediately responded quickly, and with the howling wind, the grayish-yellow clouds were instantly blown away, but at the same time, two mages groaned, and they suffered the backlash of magic.

Li Wei was a little surprised at the moment. The wind making technique is a second-level magic, and they were not affected by the stinking cloud technique. Why would there be magic backlash?
Before he could ask, the two mages quickly told him the truth.

"Boss Li Wei, there is something wrong with the other party's corpse truck!"

"Yes, the system reminded me that it was the corpse truck that affected my magic. Since I don't have the expertise to concentrate on casting spells, every time I cast a spell, I have a chance to be backlashed!"

Does the corpse truck still have this effect?Is it a type newly developed by Gust?
But before he could figure it out, the melee troops of the two sides had already collided. For a while, the roars of green skins, the screams of catgirls, and the roars of ogres rang out one after another. The undead form a sharp contrast.

Donna's arrow rain was still slanting, but she had to change her target soon, because under the cover of the black mist, the necromancers left many corpses behind, but it didn't take long. , they still managed to transfer to a place beyond their range.

Caijin's harpies also got off to a bad start. Because the necromancers counterattacked too violently, hundreds of them died in vain, but they failed to achieve any results.

After finally waiting for the black mist to dissipate, they were able to find their target again, but hundreds of giant bats came out from nowhere and started a scuffle with them.

Although the harpies had an advantage in numbers, the giant bats were assisted by necromancers, so they quickly suffered heavy losses.

This made Caijin and the others very distressed, but they still did not order them to retreat, because if they lost their interference and let the necromancers free their hands, the threat to other troops on their side would only be greater !
At the same time, the corpse flames on the dozens of corpse trucks were burning violently, and the big magnet clock kept flickering. It was almost invisible to the naked eye, but the actual magic began to take effect, covering the undead in the front row.

Affected by this, their abilities in all aspects have been slightly improved.

Just as soon as they came into contact, Caijin and their greenskins began to suffer certain casualties. After all, greenskins have never been good at defense, and some tomb ghosts also have poisonous attacks. A special transformation for necromancers.

In contrast, the situation of Li Wei and Suifeng's silver light guards and ogres is much better.

With many bonuses, the former has strong enough defense, while the latter has rough skin and thick flesh, and is more resistant to toxins and so on.

But despite this, Li Wei also felt the strength of the other party. It should be said that he is a follower of Vishharon. These necromancers not only know many types of magic, but also have strong undead people.

He even suspected that there was more than one hero unit among them, because the opponent's counterattack was quite organized, and one could tell at a glance that someone was in the middle of the command. If it was not a hero unit, other necromancers might not obey the opponent's command so easily.

But just like this, it is still impossible to defeat our own side, not to mention that the Sun Knights have already dispatched, and reinforcements will arrive soon!
But I didn't expect that before Li Wei opened his mouth, a certain necromancer laughed strangely first: "A mixed force of elves, ogres and beastmen? It's really rare, but you think you can challenge the disciples of Vishharon with this, That would be a big mistake!"

Li Wei casually sent out an ice storm that weakened all the remaining Bodak corpses, then he turned his head and pretended to be very puzzled: "You are followers of Visharron, but why are you doing it for Gou? ster effect?"

Taking a closer look at the other party, Li Wei found that the other party was actually a black-skinned Necromancer. Compared with the pale necromancers next to him, he seemed to be more suitable for fighting in the dark area. After all, the race has its own invisibility talent. .

As soon as the words came out, the other party seemed a little surprised: "Herman Gost? We have heard of this legendary hero, but we don't work for him. We just start a journey of destruction and test our new pet by the way. !"
