Long Live the Call of Heroes

Chapter 411 The Collapsing Battle Formation

Li Wei also summoned some Barani angels and wind elements again. Although they couldn't confront the bone dragon head-on, they could still restrain the opponent in a short time by virtue of their agility and speed.

And he wanted to get rid of this arrogant vampire in the shortest possible time.

When the other party showed up, it was already doomed. Unless they were at the legendary level, how many people would be able to withstand their siege?
Thinking of this, he also stared with his eyes, and responded with several eye-wave-like ray attacks-the heavenly gaze.

He rarely holds grudges, because if he has grudges, he usually avenges them on the spot!

Facing their siege, even a vampire mage could be considered a strong man, but after only three or five moves, he still died without any suspense.

After losing his backbone, those necromancers and vampires with commanding ability, one after another, stepped into the footsteps under Li Wei's targeted attack.

After that, most of the remaining undead have no intelligence, only some basic fighting instincts and aversion to the living, and naturally they will not become too much of a threat.

The two bone dragons were an exception. Although they were stupid, they were still very lethal. When he was dealing with the necromancer, they had already killed dozens of celestial creatures one after another.

Their flying speed is faster than ordinary angels. Although their movements are not very flexible, their attack range is large enough, which makes up for their shortcomings to a considerable extent.

Especially those flame archon ember guards are very effective in killing low and mid-level enemies, but when facing enemies like bone dragons, they undoubtedly become the best targets.

Then Li Wei discovered that since following him, the Griffin mount, who has been hardworking and loyal, also expressed his thoughts for the first time.

It wanted to fight the bone dragon, even if it failed, the price would be death.

Griffin is born a warrior, it is willing to be the mount of the strong, but it is also eager to fight with the strong enemy.

That's a danger, but it's also an opportunity!

Although slightly surprised, Levi did not refuse its first request.

After casting a flying spell on himself, Li Wei let the opponent and many celestial creatures start a siege on the bone dragon.

But to be honest, whether it succeeds or fails, he doesn't really care about it.

Even if it successfully killed the bone dragon and advanced, so what?
The race it was born in had already determined its upper limit, and it would almost never be able to match a real giant dragon or phoenix and so on.

Maybe after the battle here is over, it's time for me to change to a more powerful mount.

In just a few minutes, except for the bone dragon, other threatening undead, such as tomb ghosts and sword binding spirits, etc., have basically been cleaned up.

Then Luna led the huntress troops, happily hunting down the remaining low and mid-level undead.

Those guys are very slow, and they don't know how to escape. Apart from being led by Luna to bloodletting, until they are completely killed, they have no other ending.

Only the two bone dragons are a little difficult to deal with.

Li Wei originally thought they were summoned objects, but when the vampire mage died, they still stayed here, and even the attributes did not change, and he realized it when they still easily killed many celestial creatures ,But in fact, it's not.

They were most likely made by the vampire, but they were summoned in a special way, just like he summoned the death guards.

But this made everyone's actions more convenient, because not only Li Wei's griffins were interested in them, but Sally and Sepha also wanted to hunt them.

Since they already knew their desires, Li Wei didn't intervene. He just did some auxiliary work, tested the opponent's weakness, and most importantly, prevented the opponent from breathing out the dragon's breath.

Thanks to the tacit cooperation between him and Cindy and others, this task was accomplished very well.

Like fools, the two bone dragons were first separated, and then flew around by many celestial creatures. Sefa and others could take the opportunity to attack.

Only when they were beaten very painfully, the bone dragons would want to retaliate against Saifa and the others, but at this time, Cindy would take the initiative to draw fire with the angels.

They are all quite strong, even if they are hit head-on by the bone dragon, they will not be easily killed in seconds, and they will be able to rejoin the battle soon.

The performance of that griffin was also beyond Li Wei's expectations. It was not as reckless as its other kind, but had been mixed among many celestial creatures, and when it saw the opportunity, it would be ruthless again.

It seems that after following Levi for so long, it has become a lot smarter.

But it's no wonder that Griffins are inherently intelligent. After special training, they may even understand all commonly used human or elf languages.

In comparison, this bit of fighting wisdom is nothing.

Li Wei also basically figured out the various abilities of the bone dragon. On the whole, among the 6th-tier arms, they should be regarded as quite powerful.

A single flight ability is enough for them to take the initiative in battle.

This makes it so that even with the side support of Li Wei and Cindy, there are still frequent deaths of celestial creatures, because often they can easily damage or even kill them with a random blow.

Coupled with those killed by sword-bound spirits and necromancers, the number of lost celestial creatures this time can be regarded as among the best in many battles.

At the same time, the many weaknesses of ordinary undead have been significantly weakened by it. The restraint of magic such as fire and light is no longer so obvious.

But despite this, they were too low in intelligence after all, and after spending a little more time, they were still destroyed by their own continuous attacks.

Sally was the first to end the life of a bone dragon with a fireball, and then the griffin gave the final blow to the other bone dragon.

As they crashed to the ground, scattered into broken bones all over the ground, all the people who participated in this battle couldn't help but finally relax a little bit.

It is difficult for those who have not personally fought against the bone dragon to imagine the oppressive feeling brought by such a huge monster.

On the contrary, Saifa was a little bit regretful, because she failed to achieve her goal. Not only was she preempted by Sally, but she was even worse than a griffin.
Li Wei immediately comforted: "Don't be discouraged, the three-way joint attack of the Silver Blood Army, we only broke through one direction now, and you still have many opportunities."

While they were fighting fiercely with the bone dragon, other directions were not peaceful, especially the main force led by Earl Edward, which brought a considerable degree of trouble to Khalida.

There are quite a few powerful monsters among them, waiting for them to hunt and kill them.

Saifa immediately nodded with a chuckle: "Don't worry, Li Wei, I won't be discouraged by such a trivial matter, I just don't know if Sonia will surpass me."

Although they are as close as sisters, there is of course a rivalry between them.

Li Wei nodded and didn't say anything more, but it's not yet time to completely relax.

After patting the big head of the griffin as a sign of encouragement, and praising everyone who performed more outstandingly, several clever guinea pigs picked up the spoils immediately.

In the current battle, their strength is too weak, and any range-type magic may directly take them away.

Therefore, their mission has gradually changed, from scouts at the beginning to cleaners cleaning the battlefield.

Not to mention, the level of the vampire just now is unclear for the time being, but the equipment on his body is quite luxurious.

A purple battle treasure - undead shield, which can improve the defense and magic resistance of the undead, with magic - slow magic, and is also part of a certain combination of treasures.

Although it is useless to Li Wei, he already knows that this thing is matched with the Black Demon Sword.

Together with the skull crown and bone breastplate, they can be combined into the famous legendary battle treasure-cursed armor.

In addition to inheriting many of the original buffs to the undead, they also inherited the respective skills of the four treasures, that is, slowing Dafa, curse possession, weakness, and imminent disaster.

Speed, critical strike rate, critical strike damage rate, attack power, and luck will all be reduced, and the duration will also be greatly increased.

Even if the value of each item is not high, but combined, the effect is quite remarkable.

If the right buyer is found, their value will undoubtedly be very high.

A special manuscript records his research and manufacturing process of the sword binding spirit. After reading carefully, you can learn how to make them.

But Li Wei didn't like it. Not to mention being a lawful and good camp, it is impossible for him to create this kind of undead. In fact, he already has a better substitute, which is the shadow element.

A pair of purple magic shoes, in addition to improving the movement speed, magic resistance and magic limit, it can also come with a very powerful skill-recovery magic.

At the cost of consuming 100 mana points, restore 6 mana points for the caster and all friendly units within a diameter of 50 meters.

Although the cooling time is 5 minutes and the coverage area is not large, the cost performance is ridiculously high.

As long as one friendly army enjoys this achievement, the rest is pure profit!

Levi decided to throw it at the priests, who needed magic the most in battle.

Finally, there is a seemingly inconspicuous blue equipment - the Shadow Shrine.

It looks like an urn from the outside, but what's inside is not ashes, but a lot of soul crystallization.

Li Wei guessed before that with so many sharp swords and spirits created, the vampire might still have some in stock.

Sure enough, the Shrine of Shadows was full of more than [-] soul crystals, all of which were of high quality and could be used directly to make Death Guards.

There are not even any sequelae, because these soul crystals have erased things like consciousness in them, and now they are just pure energy bodies.

I don't know how long that guy has been saving, but now it's all cheap for Levi.

It's a pity that the two bone dragons didn't drop any equipment, only some dragon teeth, dragon bones and other materials, and then two broken souls.

Most of the undead do not have souls. Once they are killed, they tend to disappear, so Li Wei killed so many ghouls and sword-bound spirits, and there is nothing to gain in this regard.

But probably in order to strengthen the wisdom and fighting power of the two bones, the vampire also used some special methods to forcefully stuff his specially made soul.

Although Li Wei didn't see where they were strengthened, the soul crystal fragments obtained after killing them were indeed high-end goods.

He can make new sphinxes just by putting together another one later.

As for other trophies, Li Wei didn't have time to take a closer look for the time being. Anyway, he knew most of the things that ordinary undead could provide.

Leaving Luna's huntress unit behind, he continued to encircle and suppress the remaining undead. He led Cindy and the others back to the frontal battlefield.

It's just that despite the information passed on by monitoring the Yakong and the ancient tomb sacrifices before, I learned that the battle situation is very unfavorable to our side.

But when he actually saw it with his own eyes, Li Wei knew how bad this so-called thing was.

They managed to intercept the black knight at the ferry, and with the activities of Elegy and Alduin, it seemed that they had almost killed each other.

But just as he was busy fighting against the bone dragon, he paid less attention to this side. In just a few minutes, the battle formation in the east has almost completely collapsed.

Looking around, there are bones and rock fragments in sight, almost covering the ground with a hard layer. They undoubtedly represent a large number of casualties on one's own side.

Even God's Chosen heroes, who have always been vigilant, suffered heavy losses at this moment.

It's not that Khalida or them are careless. In fact, after Li Wei's reminder before, they immediately carried out targeted defenses.

It's just that the enemy who came this time is too powerful.

In the undead army in the east, there are not only tens of thousands of low- and middle-level cannon fodder troops, but also nearly two thousand knights.

In addition to black knights and spirit-bound knights, there are also some special knights decorated with the crest of the blood-colored dragon and blood-colored armor - blood knights.

Death Knight, Blood Knight, and Terror Knight are the top three undead knights.

Among them, all death knights are hero units, the number is relatively small, but the average overall strength may be the strongest.

Its unique blood, evil and frost, the inheritance of the three major departments, let alone one of them, ordinary people can have good combat power even with one and a half moves.

But the death knight can be a fellow practitioner of the three departments. The most typical one is Maltis, who is hiding somewhere and is waiting for an opportunity.

She is mainly based on the Frost type, and is very good at saving her life, but she is also good at the other two types.

Just one hand of death grip is enough to easily handle many squishy jobs.

The blood knights are also not bad. Their biggest feature is that all the knights are mid-level and high-level vampires, and the weapons they use are all magic weapons with evil attributes.

Heavy armor, rage, hunger and thirst, blood-sucking, coupled with the vampire's own racial characteristics and many spellcasting abilities, make their combat effectiveness ridiculously strong.

It is said that the blood knights were originally exclusive to the blood dragon family. All of them imitated their ancestors, hoping that one day they could drink dragon blood and not be cursed by the blood. They are also called blood dragon knights.

But after seeing this, other vampire families also began to form their own vampire knights.

In contrast, their strengths are uneven.

Because as long as it is a vampire who is proficient in martial arts (even if he thinks it is) and calls himself a knight, he can theoretically be called a blood knight.

With the strength shown by these guys in front of them, although they are unlikely to be real blood dragon knights, they are just clumsy imitations, but they are already very strong, at least level 5.

Their ability to continue fighting is extremely strong, and because they are good at magic, they can often deal with various complicated environments.

The most powerful blood dragon knights are not necessarily inferior to death knights.

Terrorist knights appear more often as arms, and most of them use thick sabers as weapons.

The signature ability is that after each attack hits, it is possible to launch a fatal blow and curse.

When a fatal blow is triggered, even a troop of the same rank may directly lose more than half of its life with a single strike. The explosive power is almost invincible among cavalry of the same rank.

Even if they survived by chance, if they were cursed, their various abilities would be reduced, and it would be difficult to survive the subsequent attacks of the terrifying knights.

Now the enemy has the blood knight as the vanguard, the ghost knight and the black knight are accompanying, and there is a large amount of cannon fodder as a coordinator. They are adopting a method similar to Luna's method against those ghouls just now.

They are constantly cutting and disrupting their own formation, and almost no troops on their side can resist it.

And because their average strength is stronger and their number is larger, their own losses are much greater than those of the undead who were hanged by Luna.

Some bloodthirsty bat wolves led the tomb ghosts on a rampage, and they could easily cause chaos wherever they passed.

Those ancient tomb guards and skeleton soldiers weighed only a few kilograms including their weapons and armor, and they couldn't withstand the opponent's charge at all. Now they all relied on the constructs and the troops of God's Chosen heroes to carry them to death.

Li Wei's silver light guards are capable of fighting, but their number is only a few hundred. In a battle of this scale, it is difficult to play a decisive role.

And if they do that, regardless of whether they can succeed in the end, the loss must be extremely heavy.

So at this moment, under the command of Elegy, Alyssa and others, they are not too enthusiastic, but cooperate with their own friendly forces to give priority to clearing the enemies in the north of the ferry.

After killing all the opponents and reuniting with Li Wei, they will really launch a counterattack.

At the same time, among the enemy's army, occasionally there are some hidden necromancers or vampire mages, releasing evil magic one by one.

The power may not be great, but it is either a summon or a negative state such as a curse, which makes the own troops that are not as strong as the blood knight even worse.

If it wasn't for the fact that Donna had already led the team before, she would take the lead in killing the opponent's bloodthirsty sky ghost and other flying units.

If it weren't for those hero units such as generals, priests, and technicians, they were also fighting hard.

If the main force of one's own side is not the living, but some constructs and mummies, I am afraid that they have completely collapsed by this moment.

What made Li Wei frown the most was that even though the situation had reached such a point, Khalida had disappeared.

She wasn't on the frontal battlefield at all, which was outrageous!

Full of doubts, Li Wei first asked Cindy and the others to join Elegy and the others, preparing to try to restore the gradually overturned battle formation.

On the one hand, he immediately found a priest who was most familiar with him, that is, the guy who took his death guard before, and the other party was considered to be relatively strong among many priests and technicians.

"Where did Khalida go?"

Since he was already quite familiar with Li Wei, the priest told him all the information he knew without saying a word.

"The Queen discovered Edward's trail. He was traveling with a confidant of the Vampire Queen's maid, so the Queen personally chased her into the northern valley. We are not sure of her exact location for the time being."

Li Wei was speechless immediately, and of course he could roughly understand Khaleda's hatred.

The Lamia family originally came from the city of Lamia, and the vampire queen used to be the queen there before she was alive, and now even the name has only been changed a little bit.

After becoming a vampire, she even wanted to transform all the residents under her rule into undead, but she failed in the end.

In a sense, this can be understood as national enmity.

As for personal hatred, there is no need to mention it, even if the snake god saved Kalida, she is not a normal human being now.

Coupled with the series of subsequent actions of the Vampire Queen, Khalida has enough reasons to resent each other.

But he still couldn't help but have some doubts. Was Khalida really simply bled when she was in the Temple of Bones?Has she really recovered from all her injuries?
How do you feel that her current performance is so different from the wise and decisive warrior queen in Lilith's impression and in the past legends?

That evil ritual, shouldn't it also disturb her thinking?
In fact, this was not the first time he had this doubt, and many of the other party's performances before were really not worthy of the name.

The folk rumors may be wrong, but Lilith's cognition is unlikely to be affected by this.

If it wasn't for Khaleda's disposition changing drastically because of the recent encounter, it could only be that the injury she suffered left serious sequelae, which seriously affected her thinking.

So much so that her performance was so poor, and even in such a big battle, she did such an irrational behavior.

Immediately sent surveillance Yakong and Shadow Element, etc. to search for Khaleda's whereabouts, Li Wei asked instead: "Did she leave any special means for you to deal with the current crisis?"

The ghostly fire in his eyes flickered for a moment, and he exchanged glances with his companions, and finally the priest chose to tell the truth.

"We do have backup means that have not been activated, but that requires the queen's order, unless."

Having said that, the sacrificial priest deliberately paused for a few seconds.

How could Li Wei not understand what the other party meant?They do have a solution, but they still need an order, or an excuse.

So he said bluntly: "Just use it, if Khalida wants to blame it, put all the blame on me."

Let's not talk about the life-saving grace before, just look at her poor performance today. After the battle, is she really still in the mood to care about such a small matter?
With his words, the priests stopped hesitating immediately, quickly took out several golden circles, and jointly cast magic.

It can be seen that they are already ready to do this, which makes Li Wei feel at ease.

So he turned to try to deal with the opponent's cavalry unit.

It's a pity that on such a large-scale battlefield, his own strength is still not enough to change the battle situation. After all, the opponent is not only strong in average strength, but also in numbers.

Therefore, he could only unite with some stronger allies around him to temporarily maintain a small-scale battle formation from damage, and wait for the priests to complete their magic before considering a gradual counterattack.

He even sent a letter to Luna telling her not to show up for the time being even if the battle on the other side was over.

In terms of straight-line charging speed alone, the horses of the blood knights are not comparable to the little black panthers of the huntresses.

If they were noticed by the other party, after a wave of charge, except for Luna who could survive, the other huntresses would suffer heavy losses.

Although there is no good way to deal with the opponent's cavalry for the time being, Li Wei is still very good at dealing with other undead.

Sacred-Ice Storm, Flame Head, Micro Meteor, etc. emerged one after another, and with the cooperation of Cindy, Sally, Sepha and others, they quickly cleared away a large number of ghosts in the tomb forcibly, exposing several of them. Blood Bat Wolf.

Donna, who had already received the order in advance, immediately ordered a wave of arrows to be fired.

Without any doubt, they directly turned into cold corpses.

Although it is the same Tier 6 unit as the Bone Dragon, their destructive power and survivability on the battlefield are completely different.

If it had been replaced by a bone dragon, it would probably have driven Donna around, asking for help in a hurry. After all, the Sky Slayer was still too fragile.

Seeing them perform so well, many god-chosen heroes also began to subconsciously move closer to them, and soon Le Wei gathered a lot of strength.

At this time the priests finally completed their ceremony.

Along with the cracking of the ground, countless skulls formed miniature fountains, lifting several pitch-black coffins out of them.

Anyone who knows a little bit of magic can see that it is densely packed with countless runes representing vicious curses.

The huge magical energy is almost visible to the naked eye, forming a vortex.

Cindy, Sepha and the others, who were more sensitive, subconsciously went all out on guard, because they could all feel that in the black coffin, there were countless souls howling and roaring!

Many celestial creatures showed hostility, even hatred.

Because if we only talk about the degree of evil, these black coffins are undoubtedly more than a hundred times more evil than the sword binding spirit just now!
But the priests were overjoyed: "It succeeded, more than expected, a total of five soul coffins!"

Li Wei also waved his hand, signaling his subordinates not to get too excited.

Although in his opinion, these things are indeed a bit too evil, but using evil to deal with evil, sometimes the effect may be better than his divine power.

He just nodded to the priests: "Use it with all your strength, and leave the defensive task to me first!"

The priests didn't show too much politeness, because everyone knew that the current battle situation was very unfavorable to their own side, especially since the leader, Queen Khaleda, was still missing.

So they need to turn defeat into victory as soon as possible, and even end this battle!
