Long Live the Call of Heroes

Chapter 409 Facing the Silver Blood Army

But those have little to do with Li Wei and the others for the time being. Except for Sonia and Sefa who are a little worried, the others are more interested in listening to the story.

Because rat people like to play with dwarves most, followed by humans, because they can use this to obtain a lot of food and other resources.

But the Ratmen seldom go to the overseas islands, because they have no warships or navies at all.

If I have to say it, they have at most some special "river troops" trained in the sewers of human towns.

This so-called navy can be used at critical moments, but it is absolutely useless.

And the islands basically can't make holes or use underground threats, which will just make them drown.

Similarly, they don't dare to provoke races such as elves, not only because they are stronger, but also because the popularity of magic in their race is relatively high.

For example, it made Wang Jerry turn into stone several times in a rage.
Li Wei was very satisfied with the Celestial Tigers and Celestial Bears summoned by Cindy.

They are generally not low in combat effectiveness, and they are also very good at killing rats. It didn't take long for Cindy to learn from them that their arrival this time was indeed based on the instruction of their goddess.

The tiger goddess-Frik, once had a relationship with the elves and gods through another god of beasts, the seal spirit goddess who is also a member of the dreamers of the sea.

She even learned archery from Soronor Shanlandry, the god of bow and arrow of the elves, and has since completely changed her fighting style with most female tiger people.

So after learning about Li Wei's relevant information from the supervisor and how many gods valued him, she decided to send some cronies to help her as an investment.

As long as it takes a little longer to become a god, there are tens of thousands of petitioners and celestial creatures in the kingdom of God. The mere dozens of celestial tigers in this area are nothing to her.

But if she could gain a little favor from Lilith or Yue Gong, it would be considered a profit for her.

In the same way, those celestial bears have a similar reasoning.

The brothers and sisters, the God of the Bear and the Goddess of the Tiger, have always gone hand in hand in everything, and they have always been very active in getting closer to the gods of the good and lawful camps.

The Tiger Goddess is primarily devoted to befriending the elven gods, while the Bear God is more inclined towards the human nature gods.

But they don't mind befriending more gods if possible.

Similarly, Li Wei is also very happy to be able to associate with them, because Lilith has always wanted to associate with them before.

Compared with most gods, their brother and sister are obviously much more simple, and they are really willing to do it if they have something to do!
Then Li Wei distributed the few gadgets he got from He Mao to Saifa and the others. Although the value of these things was not particularly high, they were happy to accept them because they were novel enough.

While chatting and following Wang Jerry's guidance, Li Wei also copied the magic. The area of ​​this mountain is quite large and the terrain is relatively complicated. He still has some free time.

Not to mention, it was a very wise move for him to choose to cooperate with Wang Jerry, because he can often lead his troops around many dangerous areas and only take those safe and quick paths.

Even if Khalida may have prepared otherwise, the effect may not be as good as his leading the way.

After walking for dozens of miles, they didn't encounter any enemies, and the road was a bit too calm.

Not to mention Li Wei or Khalida, even Wang Jerry, who is a little slow, feels something is wrong.

He still couldn't hold back, and ran over quickly: "Li Wei, has the Silver Blood Army already left early?"

He remembered that Li Wei had reached an agreement with him in private, not counting Khaleda, if he could lead the way and successfully encircle and suppress the Silver Blood Army, he would have several death guards available.

But if the other party runs away early, he has to exchange it with real money.

Li Wei smiled: "It's okay, I have been sending people to watch it, unless they can also dig holes, they shouldn't be able to escape."

Of course, if they have already used magic such as teleportation, let alone him, even Kalida has nothing to do.

The dimensional anchor can block the space, but that also requires him to see the other party first.

If the Silver Blood Army hadn't already run away, then they were preparing to gather all their forces and have a decisive battle with them.

As long as they strengthen their guard, they will not be successfully attacked by the opponent, and with Kalida around, they will not be easily defeated.

Continue to move forward until the sky is slightly dark, and Wang Jerry's speed gradually slows down, not because of exhaustion, but because he has reached a very important place.

Looking from a distance, there is a dry riverbed and dilapidated ferry in front of it, and a huge concave valley in front of it.

According to what Wang Jerry said before, the old lair of the Silver Blood Army is under a small hill in the northeast of the valley.

Khalida also sighed a little, she has come here more than once in the past many years.

Her army has even gone deep into the valley many times, almost an inch of land, and turned it all over, but found nothing.

It seems that Li Wei's thinking is indeed correct, and it is best to find someone in the know to lead the way in person.

But now it was almost critical time, because once they entered the valley, they could be easily ambushed.

Based on the previous performance of the opponent, there is definitely an existence who is good at tactics, strategy and command, and the opponent cannot miss this opportunity.

However, after several confrontations, they have almost figured out the opponent's routine, which is nothing more than a sneak attack while taking advantage of the chaos.

So both Khalida and Levi began to prepare for the war. A large number of buff magic and props were used without money. At the same time, flying units also began to frequently scout around.

Looking at the sky, Khalida also reminded Li Wei that if possible, it is best for them to end today's battle before the sun sets.

This place is where Nagash once stayed. Needless to say, he must have left a lot of evil magic circles here.

Even in the daytime, vampires and other undead are likely to be blessed by their power. When night falls, the strength of the undead will definitely be further strengthened.

However, as the line of sight is weakened, the combat effectiveness of humans or elves may be affected to a certain extent.

The ebb and flow is somewhat disadvantageous to them.

Of course, it doesn't matter to her subordinates, whether it's generals, priests, or guards of the gods, they don't simply see things through their eyes.

Because many of their eyeballs are simply rotten, they rely on the induction of souls and energy breaths.

Within a few minutes, Li Wei received a report that there were a large number of phantoms and other incorporeal creatures lurking above the entrance of the valley, as well as some human Haguis holding muskets and crossbows.

It was obvious that they were planning an ambush there.

In fact, if only Khalida led the troops here, they still have a high success rate.

Because the only standard air force of the Tomb Kings is the extremely weak carrion vulture.

But Khalida doesn't like to use them yet, because she likes snakes, and vultures and snakes, she doesn't think it's easy to deal with.

But now that Li Wei is here, and there are many god-chosen heroes following him, it is too easy to do a simple reconnaissance job.

Soon, Yakong, the supervisor, issued a warning, saying that there were many black knights lurking on the side on the other side, and they should have planned to kill them from the side when their own side was ambushed.

But now the opponent's ambush plan has obviously failed.

Almost when Li Wei received this report, those vampires seemed to realize their mistake, and they took action immediately.

A large number of skeletons, zombies, dire wolves, and black knights appeared one after another in the bursts of black mist.

Since it is impossible to sneak attack, then simply launch a frontal attack!

After receiving such a report, Khalida was also refreshed, and she immediately raised her snake-headed spear: "I can't remember how many days I spent fighting against these slaves driven by my evil cousin Spent it."

"But today, we finally have the opportunity to completely clean up the filth here."

"In the name of the God of Serpents, may he purify these wretched undead with his venom!"

It's a pity that her short pre-battle speech did not cause much trouble, because the troops under her command were either mummies or constructs.

In the end, there were only some heroes chosen by the gods, who responded a few times like joining in the fun, making the scene not so embarrassing.

Khalida didn't care either. After being a mummy for so many years, no matter how much enthusiasm she had, most of them gradually disappeared over the long years.

So even under the blessing of the gods, those loyal and brave soldiers still have a chance to be resurrected after they die in battle, but their overall number is constantly decreasing.

Part of it is because the soul has been overwhelmed after many resurrections, and the other part is because they voluntarily gave up the chance of resurrection, and they want to die completely.

However, this should also be the last time she used the name of the snake god to encourage her subordinates.

Regardless of whether this battle is successful or not, the god who has already disappeared, let him disappear completely!
Under Khaleda's order, large troops were mobilized one after another, ready to snipe the enemy at the dilapidated ferry.

Although the river has long since dried up and been replaced by endless yellow sand and gravel, the ferry less than [-] meters wide is still a very good geographical advantage.

After all, our side is very good at long-range units, and ordinary undead are notoriously lacking long-range units. It would be a bit stupid not to use them.

Li Wei naturally did his part and chose the best position.

In many previous battles, he was very salty fish, but now it is almost the most critical moment, and he will no longer be humble.

Although several people were clearly dissatisfied with this, they had no choice but to choose to compromise.

Now, if they can't see the situation clearly, then they are fools.

After thinking about it, Li Wei asked Luna to take her sisters to investigate around.

Similarly, Kalida also sent the ancient tomb priests to direct various summons to carry out similar actions.

The vampires are definitely not fools. They know that this terrain will be very unfavorable to them who don't have many long-range shooters, but they still decide to fight this battle. They must have some confidence.

Either they have enough troops and don't care about the extra casualties caused by it, which naturally goes without saying.

Or, they have a way to kill their ranged units.

For example, a sneak attack from the side!
While everyone was busy, Wang Jerui and the others looked at each other in blank dismay, feeling a little embarrassed.

Only then did they realize that they had forgotten to consider one of the most important issues, what would they do if they fought with the Silver Blood Army?
Just watching the fun from the sidelines?But with so many mobile experience points, wouldn't this be a bit too wasteful?
But it is not realistic to say that they really joined the battle. After all, they had met each other half a day ago.
Seeing their difficulties, Li Wei smiled: "Come here, I can give you a temporary guarantee."

If he wants to cooperate for a long time, of course he can't just rely on the exchange of benefits. He is more inclined to give his sincerity to achieve a result that satisfies both parties.

And so far, the other party has not lied, he has just secretly sensed through the nine volumes of Nagash, and they are indeed constantly approaching the other volume.

Although the distance is still a bit far away, he can't figure out its specific location for the time being, but the general direction is definitely not a problem.

Wang Jerry immediately nodded gratefully to him. He was indeed dissatisfied with Li Weizang before, but now the other party's behavior made him feel that he was narrow-minded.

Although he hated the opponent so much when he was facing the enemy, but as a friend, Li Wei is still a very good choice!
Wang Tom and He Mao also laughed. Compared with the warrior Wang Jerry, they are a sniper-type shooter, an onmyoji who knows spells and can summon, and they are more powerful in this kind of battle.

If you don't join the battle, you will lose a lot, and now this is the best.

Almost when they had just completed their formation, with a large amount of smoke and dust, accompanied by the vibration of the ground, a large number of black knights were already approaching.

Their weapons are different, sword shield, spear shield, two-handed sword, long halberd.
But the only thing they have in common is that they are all Tier 4 units, and the number is close to 300.

On their two wings, there are more dire wolves.

Their class is very low, generally no more than level 3, and their status among the undead is basically equivalent to that of hounds among humans.

But they also have an advantage, that is, they are extremely fast, and they are very suitable for harassment, pursuit, and to seize important strongholds in advance, waiting for follow-up reinforcements, such as now.

Looking at the number of the other party and the leader of a heavy-armed vampire who is not unfamiliar, Khalida couldn't help but snorted softly: "Waldach Latup, are you going to die here before Edward?" ?”

Although she was a little disdainful on her lips, in fact she secretly stepped up her guard.

The Lamia family has never been famous for their fighting power. Where did the opponent get so many black knights?

You must know that she had seen Edward from a distance several times before, and the other party had only brought some vampires as personal guards, and had never had cavalry units.

Either the other party has planned for a long time, or the other party has received new support.

Regardless of the reason, it was worth her vigilance.

At this time, an ancient tomb general also took the initiative to ride the skeleton war horse, and rode out alone.

He didn't utter any mocking or cursing words, but first tapped his shield with the sickle-shaped sword, and then pointed at the opponent.

At this moment, no matter the enemy or us, everyone subconsciously looked at the target he pointed at.

This is a championship duel, which is very popular among powerful fighters. Once the winner or loser is decided, it will have a great impact on the morale of both sides.

Zhendan called it generals duel, and Ni Peng called it a horseman, but they were all similar things.

It may not play a big role in a war of this scale, but in a small-scale battle, it may largely determine its victory or defeat.

It's just that, now that it happens between the undead and the ancient tomb king, it's somewhat nondescript, because neither of these two races is so easily affected by morale.

But if you can watch a lively scene, all the god-chosen heroes present will still like it very much.

It's a pity that the vampire, who is the leader of the black knight, didn't speak, but silently raised the spear in his hand, and then swung it down vigorously.

With his movements, the thick black mist suddenly expanded, almost covering the sky.

This is likely to be a special usage of the dark sky, which can strengthen the strength of the undead that is shrouded in it.

Then a large number of dire wolves charged first, followed by hundreds of black knights.

Undoubtedly, he rejected the general's heads-up invitation, and now they have only one goal, and that is to seize the ferry!
Li Wei also ordered his subordinates to get ready. With so many Tier 4 troops, he also planned to take action himself.

Then he found that Maltis seemed to be a little bit interested, which was still a very rare thing for her.

Faced with Li Wei's question, she also nodded without hesitation: "Yes, the charge of so many undead knights seems to remind me of the past, and I have done it more than once."

Then her voice changed: "And I'm also very interested in his mount."

She didn't need to say much at all, everyone immediately understood what she was referring to.

Because the mount under the crotch of the vampire leader is very eye-catching. It is not an ordinary war horse, but a nightmare beast.

It's basically an evil version of a unicorn, maybe even stronger.

Because in addition to their extraordinary speed, they can use flaming hooves, and breathe smoke to confuse the enemy's sight and even blind them, their biggest feature is that they can also fly.

Although it doesn't have wings, its own level is not too high, usually only 4th or 5th level, so in terms of flying speed and flexibility, it may be inferior to professional flying creatures such as griffins, but it is still rare. Precious mount.

In contrast, Maltis's current mount is just a skeleton army horse that she temporarily summoned.

More importantly, they are inclined to be evil by nature, and they are willing to submit to the strong, so they are far more suitable for Maltis than ordinary mounts.

After all, no matter what her heart is, she is a death elf, an undead.

Li Wei chuckled: "Okay, then I'll kill him for you and take away his mount."

This is almost the first important wish of Maltis besides inquiring about her own true identity. How could he not satisfy her?
But Maltis smiled lightly and shook his head: "No, I prefer to take it with my own hands."

Li Wei couldn't help raising his eyebrows when he heard the words, not because he was surprised by the other party's decision, but just looking at the appearance of that vampire, he doesn't seem like a guy who likes to fight head-on.

If Maltis goes to initiate a challenge, he will be rejected like the general just now without any surprise.

It might even be worse, the other party might directly order the black knights to besiege her.

But Maltis' wish, he will try his best to help her realize it.

So he stopped talking nonsense, and even temporarily gave up the decision to take action immediately, and started to help her display various buff states instead.

As an undead, she is certainly not blessed to accept the protective magic that is obviously biased towards the light and sacred, such as the supreme robe.

But with the Ring of Mythrien in hand, the duration of other spells released by him, such as Dragon Power, Shining Robe, Reaction Spirit Armor, etc., will be far longer than ordinary mages, and it can still give her a lot of help of.

After blessing a lot of magic, Maltis quickly slipped away on the skeleton army horse, probably planning to sneak attack while taking advantage of the chaos.

Anyway, she is an undead, as long as she covers up a little, she will not be particularly eye-catching on this chaotic battlefield.

Li Wei didn't say anything, this girl was not only very assertive, but she was definitely not an idiot, she would not spare her life before she found out her real background.

But before she left, Li Wei still gave her some death guards and sent some shadow elements as a response.

Death knights are both magic and martial arts, she can also drive them, but she was not very interested in this before, she seems to be only interested in cavalry.

But up to now, she has not rejected Li Wei's kindness. Whether it will be useful or not is one thing, and it is always good to be prepared.

After such a slight delay, the army of the undead had already pressed up, and the long-range troops such as mages and shooters on their own side naturally launched an attack immediately.

Not to mention the many god-chosen heroes performing their own unique skills, Khalida also personally commanded the long-range troops to shoot a volley for the first time.

Now everyone can see that her combat level is definitely very high, and the output ability of those long-range units has not improved a little bit.

Not just the attack power, but also the maximum range, attack speed, hit rate and crit rate, etc., all aspects of improvement.

Even those few bone giants who came all the way, whose decorative meaning is more important than actual function, also began to show their power for the first time.

They switched their attack methods, and after shooting those super-giant arrows for a certain distance, they would split into more thinner and shorter arrows like celestial maidens scattered flowers.

Although the attack power has dropped due to this, the enemies that can be damaged at the same time have suddenly risen to a higher level.

And even if the attack power is weakened, it is enough to deal with ordinary dire wolves.

Similarly, Donna also condescendingly launched a salvo of arrows. She had already been exposed when she encountered the undead for the first time, so there was no need to cover up now.

Coupled with the attacks of other people, groups of dire wolves fell down first. Before the melee troops from both sides actually came into contact, at least [-]% of the dire wolves fell to the ground permanently.

Many god-chosen heroes cheered, thinking that this was really a good start.

But Li Wei couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw this, because in comparison, the proportion of black knight casualties was obviously too small.

He even saw with his own eyes that a black knight was still alive and kicking after being shot by several Avalons.

Even if the strength of the black knight is really good at the fourth level, it can't be so exaggerated, right?This is not even a simple campaign skill, or an increase in campaign attributes.

So he also threw a few fireballs and other offensive magic in order to further verify his guess.

Sure enough, although these black knights have not yet reached level 5, their strength has definitely been increased by several percent, especially their magic resistance and upper limit of health, which is almost the same if they haven't doubled.

Could it be the evil magic circle that Nagash left here, or some kind of powerful battle treasure, or maybe the other party is a hero who specializes in black knights?

Some heroes who specialize in certain arms may not have high versatility, but under certain circumstances, they can often exert higher combat effectiveness.

But before he could think more, Luna, the monitoring archon, and some priests who controlled the bugs for investigation sent an emergency warning at the same time.

In the west, under the cover of a large number of zombies and skeleton soldiers, many grave guards, ghouls and grave ghosts are marching towards this place together.

Since the other party also summoned the magic black mist and the sky was dark, they couldn't judge the approximate number for the time being, but they roughly estimated that there should be nearly a thousand of the latter three types combined.

Now even Khalida was a little surprised, they just came from the west, why didn't they notice any abnormality?

Looking at each other, Li Wei and she both understood what the other was thinking, and the other must have a powerful mage as a support.

The kings of the ancient tombs themselves have the ability to burial in the sand sea, and can lurk in the desert. It is not particularly surprising that the opponent can achieve a similar effect with the help of a powerful mage.

But even so, you can't be careless. Since the other party can do such a thing, it is very likely that there will be a second time, and the other two directions are not safe!
At the critical moment, Li Wei volunteered: "Kalida, I'll delay them, and you should be careful in the other two directions."

Khalida is not a mother-in-law: "Okay, then I will work hard for you, and if you need it, please let me know anytime!"

Although they haven't been together for a long time, she feels that she has roughly figured out Li Wei's character. He has always been humble and cautious.

It's a delay, but basically it can be considered that he is going to deal with the enemies in this direction, so she naturally has to do a good job of responding.

So Li Wei called Cindy, Sepha and Sally directly, and then went to meet Luna.

Yes, without bringing large troops, Li Wei's battle this time is mainly dominated by huntresses and dryads, followed by several legal units.

Judging from the current reconnaissance, except for the speed of the ghoul, the other party has short legs.

As long as you be careful of some legal enemies that will inevitably exist among them, the huntresses can fly their kites until they die!
