Long Live the Call of Heroes

Li Wei suddenly felt a little bad, what on earth could make Akhan speak like this?
But before he could react, the two objects in Arkhan's hands turned into light spots and disappeared at the same time, and then a mechanical and indifferent voice echoed.

"The shackles of war are detected, the summoning chessboard is detected, and the battle of the chessboard is forcibly started!"

In an instant, the stars moved, and the screams of Elegy and others were still echoing in his ears, and Li Wei found that he had directly come to another space.

He quickly glanced around, and found that there were bright stars all around, only a huge eight-sided dice and a pair of equally huge scales suspended in mid-air.

There is a huge 10X10 chessboard under his feet, and Akhan is on the other side of the chessboard.

Although he has a mummy face and can't see any expression, Levi still seems to be able to feel his pride.

Soon the system prompt also popped up, saying that because Akhan used two special props, they were forcibly transferred to this space for competition.

Here, they cannot carry out any attack or defense by themselves, but rely on summoned objects to fight.

Every round, the dice on the head will throw a point, and then both parties can perform a summon, and the level of the summoned creature cannot exceed the point of the dice.

If the point is 8, they can summon any existence at will, or simply a hero unit.

This kind of summoning can be a spell, or a skill attached to the equipment, or a magic scroll, etc. in any way.

The summoned objects of both sides will occupy a grid on the chessboard, and the summoned objects can only be placed at the two ends at the beginning, that is, on the same row as Levi or Akhan.

And when the summoned objects appear, they cannot move in the first round. In each subsequent round, they can control all the summoned objects on their own side and move 1 space to the side or forward, but the summoned objects cannot retreat.

If the summoned objects of both parties occupy the same grid, the space inside will be expanded to 1000X1000, and one is randomly selected from dozens of terrains such as desert, forest, grassland, and snow mountain.

The two sides need to fight to the death until one side is defeated, or voluntarily surrenders.

Survivors can continue to serve their summoners, and summoners who surrender will not be able to join the battle again.

If the location of a summoned object is adjacent to the location of the opponent's summoner, the summoned object can attack, and the summoner will lose HP.

The specific value depends on the level of the summoned object. The first level is 1 point of health, and the seventh level is 1 points.

The maximum number of summons that both parties can have at the same time is 20. After the upper limit is reached, a new round of summoning will not be possible, but 1 HP will be recovered.

Or if the summoner deliberately forgoes a round of summoning, he also recovers 1 hit point.

Before the start of the battle, both summoners have 100 initial health points, and the side that returns to zero first will be judged to be defeated.

If the battle fails here, the lives of both parties will not be in danger. Even after the battle is over, the loser among them will be randomly teleported to a location 100-300 miles away.

But he still needs to pay the price, that is certain property.

The initiator will first place an item on the reward scale, and his opponent must follow by placing an item of equal value.

If you don't take the initiative to put it on, the system will forcibly search for any items on him until the value is equal, or there are no more items to search for.

After the battle, the victor will get all the items placed by the opponent.

The challenger also has the right to add one more time, and the initiator also needs to put items of equal value. If he refuses, he must pay the opponent half of the value on the spot.

It can be said that no matter whether he wins or loses afterwards, he has already lost half in advance.

Originally, if one party felt bad and wanted to end the battle early and simply admit defeat, they could only pay half of the other party's property.

But because Akhan also used the war shackles at the same time, not only did the chessboard battle start without Li Wei's consent, but Li Wei also had no way to admit defeat.

However, as compensation, he can choose to activate an additional ability, which is to summon an assistant from outside the field, and the opponent will be able to perform up to three additional summons.

Of course, since Battle of the Chessboard emphasizes fairness, if he chooses to enable it, then Akhan will also get this ability.

But if he chooses to close it, Akhan can only choose to accept it.

At the same time, since this is no longer the main world, the time flow rate is also very different from the outside world. It is 1:100, 100 minutes here, and just 1 minute outside, so they have relatively sufficient time to compete.

But after 10000 minutes, the board battle will still be forcibly terminated, and the side with more remaining health will win.

If the health points of both parties are equal, neither party will suffer any loss, and they can return to the real world and continue fighting, or go back to their respective homes.

After watching all this, Li Wei frowned on the surface, but in fact he just wanted to laugh.

Does Akhan think that he is determined to eat himself?His summoning skills must be better than his own?

If he was fighting outside, he would really be very, very careful, because Akhan's instant-death magic was too strong, and he was reluctant to let Elegy and Cindy take risks.

But if you fight here, the problem is much simpler.

Let me let you understand today what it means to be clever and be mistaken by cleverness!

"The explanation of the system is finished. Next, please ask the initiator to choose the item you want to put on the reward balance."

Akhan smiled sinisterly, and directly put the newly acquired Nine Scrolls of Nagash on it. After thinking for a while, he took out a lot of spoils that he had snatched from the corpses of other enemies after he defeated them in the past.

Although he thought that this little mage, who was not even a legend, had nothing valuable on him except for the nine volumes of Nagash, but this kind of opportunity was too rare for him to take the risk.

As for his original volume, he didn't put it together because he didn't think it would be needed.

Seeing the thing flying to the left side of the scale, Li Wei was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized that Akhan had sensed that he had nine volumes of Nagash on him, but he didn't know that he had two volumes?

Immediately, he stopped pretending, and turned to look at Akhan with a smile: "You seem to have underestimated me."

Akhan was a little disdainful. He has been in the world for so long, and the number of dead legends in his hands is double digits. The gods here have always wanted to kill him, Nagash's right-hand man.

But he is still alive and well, and even just defeated an incarnation of God!
A little mage who is not even a legend, if he is not a very rare celestial mystic, he is not worthy of being regarded by him.

"The wisdom of mortals, you have to know that the reason why you are still standing here is already because I see it for the sake of the Seventh Heaven Mountain!"

"Oh, really."

While speaking, Li Wei directly put the two volumes of Nagash and the nine volumes on the balance.

Then there were the Red Dragon Sword, Dragon Wing Robe, Divine Feet, Horn of Harvest, the Western Chessboard of the Yin Red Knight, the battle flag of the Second Heavenly Legion, and other miscellaneous items.

After going through several battles in succession, the epic items on his body are really not rare.

Then there are many death guards, dragon golems, and as the main event, the sphinx.

Since he wanted to play, he would simply play a big one at once. Anyway, he could still use the things he put in, so he chose to add them without hesitation.

If you lose the battle later, you can just be shameless and ask Lilith to help you get it back, but if you win, it will be an unprecedented harvest!
It's a pity that the ring of Mythrien was temporarily lent by Lilith to her, and it didn't really belong to her. Otherwise, she might be able to get another volume from him.

As for the other blue items, there is no need to put them away, because judging from the sinking range of the balance, they are the same as the low- and middle-level death guards. From the perspective of the balance, their value is very low.

Moreover, there is also a limit on the number of scales, and the maximum can only be 100. Otherwise, with the hundreds of death guards in the space ring, he is completely confident that the other party will also press another volume.

Seeing him constantly digging things out, Akhan was full of joy at first, because he realized that he had made a mistake in his judgment, and perhaps today he would get three volumes of Nagash Nine Volumes at once!
And the other party took out some special constructs, if he remembered correctly, it means that the other party got the Death Ceremony?
Although they were all made by Nagash himself, among the nine volumes, there are strong and weak ones.

His Secret of the Necromancer can summon a large number of undead troops, the Canon of the God of Death can create many Death Guards, and the Scroll of Wisdom can speed up the growth. There is no doubt that they belong to the strongest level.

The book of disaster avoidance he just obtained can keep his luck never below a certain level, and his resistance to negative states such as plague, toxins, and curses has been greatly improved.

For ordinary humans or elves, this should be regarded as first-class, but for him who is already a special lich, it can only be regarded as middle-class.

The Shadow Secret Record mastered by that hateful guy in Sylvania only increases the upper limit of mana, learns some shadow magic, etc., which is considered inferior.

Now if he can win this battle, he is full of confidence in collecting all the nine volumes in a short time, and even resurrecting Nagash!
But as Li Wei kept moving, especially after even taking out the sphinx, he became a little serious.

Is it because of arrogance that he became rampant, or because he has enough strength, so he is so confident?

He thought it was the former before, but now he thinks it's the latter. It's not so easy to make a Sphinx
And even if the chessboard hadn't reminded him, the balance in midair had already sunk heavily towards Li Wei's side. He had to put more items to balance the balance, otherwise he would lose half first.

This elf mage whom he looked down upon was unexpectedly rich.

But he will definitely win this battle!

Akhan snorted coldly: "Idiot, I want to show you the background of a true legend!"

After taking out more than a dozen items in one go, the balance regained balance, and now the two parties are of equal value.

Seeing this, Li Wei couldn't help raising his eyebrows. Among other things, those 4 sphinxes are worth nearly ten thousand. Akhan is really rich enough.

Then the system prompts Li Wei to choose whether to call an assistant from the outside.

Li Wei naturally chose to summon, and he also asked Cindy to temporarily borrow the earth elemental gem-ankylosaur form from Elegy through the summoning object.

Let alone whether it is necessary or not, it is always good to be prepared.

So with the brilliance shining, Cindy also appeared beside him.

Without looking at the surrounding environment at all, she immediately started looking for Li Wei, and quickly relaxed, at least he is not in any danger now.

Li Wei explained to her the rules of the battle, and Cindy immediately became excited.

Because she can help him, instead of being anxious like those sisters outside.

Akhan on the other side was a little bit in trouble, because he was always alone, not just because of his original personality.

It's because there are still countless rewards hanging on his head, he doesn't dare to trust any existence at all.

But it was about the Nine Scrolls of Nagash, and he had to be cautious, especially when he knew that the other party was holding the Death Tome, he became even more cautious.

Sphinx is a Tier 7 unit, and the opponent seems to have more than one.

But after thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't find a suitable candidate.Although he has not been busy in vain during the countless years of wandering, he is also quietly developing his own power, and vainly intends to regain his territory and pyramid one day.

But for the convenience of control, those guys are basically fighters, followed by technicians. Even if there are a few priests occasionally, they are not very talented and intelligent, and they can't add chips to his victory at all.

Because guys who are smart enough are generally recruited by other Tomb Kings, and it is not convenient for him to control them.

After thinking about it, seeing that the countdown had already begun, Akhan could only grit his teeth. Since there was no better choice, he could only try to summon that one.

I just don't know, will she respond to me?

A few seconds later, with a flash of light, a slender figure gradually emerged.

Before Li Wei and Akhan could see her face clearly, a female voice familiar to both of them had already rang out first: "Damn Akhan, you abandoned me in silence, but now Still begging me to help you?"

Dressed in a noble and elegant dress, the vampire queen Neferita, who looks like a charming noble lady, appeared in the magic circle.

Even though it was a zombie face, Akhan couldn't help but twitched his face, and was a little annoyed.

He did fall into the sweet trap of the other party at the beginning, but after a long time, after he imparted all he had learned, the other party's attitude quickly turned cold, but he gradually found that something seemed a little wrong.

Not only because, as a nominal boyfriend, he couldn't comfort her with a method that can only be used by living people, but also because he discovered that she had another partner behind her back, and she was a woman!
He immediately felt that he had been deceived. You like women, didn't you tell me earlier?
The reason why you maintain this nominal relationship with me is to defraud me of my magic knowledge, right?

In addition, the gods were also looking for him, so in a fit of anger, he left without saying goodbye.

If it hadn't been for this special moment like today, even if he didn't think he had failed her, he still didn't want to meet her again, because it would only make both of them feel very embarrassed.

But now the other party actually took the lead in making trouble, as if he was the one who did the wrong thing, of course he couldn't bear it anymore.

However, considering that there were outsiders present, he did not directly argue, but communicated secretly by magical means.

But despite this, Li Wei on the other side watched it with great interest.

He has already heard about a mummy and a vampire. The special relationship between them should be purely spiritual love, right?

After all, female vampires are okay, let alone mummies, male vampires can't use those things, no wonder Neferita looks like a resentful woman, she is obviously dissatisfied with desire.

Well, but I'm not sure, Lucia said that she has a harem in Silver Peak and has several wives
On the other hand, Cindy's eyes widened, and she didn't understand for a while. Therefore, although she already knew the relationship between Li Wei and Elegy, she still didn't know much about it.

Because apart from fighting, and occasionally going shopping with Elegy and Donna, almost all of her free time is spent on prayer and meditation, and she doesn't have much energy to understand these things.

However, Li Wei didn't watch the excitement for a long time, because Akhan quickly shifted the conflict cleverly, and he found that this matter was unexpectedly successful.

This elf mage, whom he despised for a while, actually teamed up with Kalida to destroy her silver blood army.

"Damn it, it's you, Levi!"

Neferita looked at Li Wei's eyes and wanted to breathe fire. The Silver Blood Army is not only the power she has accumulated for many years, there is even a nine-volume Nagash there.

Originally, through her special ceremony, she would be able to get it in her pocket after spending some more time, but now it is all cheaper for Li Wei, and it may even become Akhan's thing in the future!

and many more
Thinking of this, she suddenly had some new ideas.

For her, would it be easier to seize the Nine Scrolls of Nagash in the hands of Arkhan or in the hands of Li Wei?

Akhan herself is extremely powerful, and she has no chance of winning if she fights head-on.

But he is more nostalgic for the past. If he saves face and bows his head, he may be able to borrow it for a few days.

Li Wei's strength is relatively weaker. Even if she doesn't make a move in person, Lucia and Alucard, who have recently come out enthusiastically under her hands, and her few personal maids, are also very likely to succeed. .

But there is a goddess behind him, so he needs to be extra careful.

She has to carefully consider the pros and cons between the two.
But on the surface, she didn't show it at all, but still looked at Li Wei full of resentment, which made Akhan very satisfied.

Although it was a choice in desperation, it seems that this step may be the right one.

It's just that it's not easy to finish later. Neferita never does things for others in vain. I should consider what kind of reward I should give her.

It is absolutely impossible to go to Silver Peak to help her, but maybe I can lend her the nine volumes of Nagash to read for a few days?

Anyway, she is not like she has been with Nagash for so many years, she can't see anything after watching it for a few days
For a while, except for Cindy who was still ignorant, the other three had their own thoughts.

But the episode is quickly over, as the battle of the board officially begins.

Although Li Wei does not know where Akhan got this thing for the time being, he can confirm one thing, it is definitely the handwriting of a certain god.

Without anyone's control, the eight-sided dice in mid-air spun slowly, and the last eight sides all showed the same number: 3.

This means that both of them can summon a Tier 3 unit in this round.

Li Wei didn't take the lead in starting the action, but planned to see what Akhan would summon, and then he would carry out targeted countermeasures.

Since they can only take one step in a regular manner each time, even though it is called a chessboard battle, the actual consideration of chess skills is not particularly important.

The real thing to look at is the hard power between the summoned objects, so the restraint relationship will become more important.

Of course Akhan noticed his gaze, but he just snorted coldly and summoned an elite barren grave guard.

He didn't care about such low-level arms at all, he relied on high-level arms to win.

For a sorcerer who is not yet a legend, to have four sphinxes in his hands is something to be proud of.

But holding the secret of the dead for so long, the number of high-level undead in his hands is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Even though they suffered heavy losses when they first fought against Tefnut, the number of bone dragons, corpse dragons, and ghost dragons left was several times higher.

If he hadn't been seriously injured by Tefnut, if he hadn't been inside the pyramid and it wasn't convenient for them to come out, he wouldn't have used the chessboard battle at all!
Seeing this, Li Wei immediately summoned a mastiff Yakong.

If it is pure frontal toughness, Mastiff Yakong may lose to the opponent, but he can fly if he can't stand it!
As long as there is not a huge difference in basic attributes, in the battles of the same level, those who can fly will always control the initiative in the battle.

Then came another 4, and this time Arkhan summoned a Tomb Haunt.

Li Wei immediately summoned a large fire element.

The tomb ghost's attack is armor-piercing and poisonous, and it also has a certain self-healing ability. It is among the best in singles at the same level, but the fire element perfectly restrains it.

The next one was a 6, Akhan snorted softly when he saw this, and summoned a bone dragon with a little pride.

Because he knew that not all of the death guards researched by Nagash were recorded in the book of the death canon. Except for the sphinx, the rest in it were just ordinary garbage.

In fact, Li Wei did have a little difficulty.

In his death guard, the sphinx is level 7, the beast-shaped scarab is level 5, and the rest are all level 4, and a serious fault just happened in the middle.

If the opponent is a ground unit, it's okay, he can mount the dragon golem, but the bone dragon can fly, which is a bit troublesome.

After thinking about it for a while, he summoned the high-level Red Flame Envoy. As a Tier 6 elite, he originally assumed a more important task, but now there is nothing he can do.

So the two sides then used their own unique skills, Akhan summoned all undead, and Li Wei summoned all kinds of people.

Celestial creatures, elemental creatures, death guards, dragon golems, armored dragons and other monsters, and even the heroic warriors provided by the red knight's chessboard, etc., have appeared one after another.

And as they appeared one after another, the summoned objects of both sides also began to approach gradually until a battle broke out.

Then Li Wei discovered that almost all the opponent's undead were elite units, and their attacks often had negative effects such as poisoning, weakness, or curses.

If it was an element or a golem, the celestial creatures could often rely on their high resistance or purification magic to fight against it, but if it was a monster or something, they might lose because of it.

The only good thing is that Akhan is not only not very good at chess, but also his luck seems to be not very good.

So far, the number 6 has only appeared once, and the number 1 is still 7. He has no way to let powerful undead such as corpse dragon and ghost dragon play.

And if it was Tier 5, Li Wei directly dispatched the dragon golem to the stage. Except for one who was unlucky and was hit by the horror knight with three critical strikes one after another, all the others won the final victory.

As for the lower-level summons, he also has a higher winning rate in this regard. Death Guard and elemental creatures are very restrained against Akhan's undead.

But it's not the time to be happy yet. The high-level red flame envoy doesn't know if he can beat the opponent's bone dragon. If he loses, Li Wei will have fewer cards available in his hand.

A bone dragon might be able to kill all his summons present.

On the contrary, Akhan's complexion gradually became serious.

Because he found that he was faintly losing the wind.

The opponent's death guard did have faults, but he didn't know where he got the dragon golem!

This kind of golem with high attack, high defense, and a lot of health is exactly the nemesis of his undead.

So he wanted to change this situation, he turned his head and looked at Neferita: "Come and help me."

Hearing his tone, Neferita wanted to explode. She has been queen for so many years, who would dare to give her such an unceremonious order?

She was still a little hesitant in her heart, but because of this sentence, she immediately made up her mind. Since you left so ruthlessly back then, don't blame me for coming back now!
But on the surface she remained calm, just nodded slightly.

Her well-behaved performance made Akhan a little surprised, and then he was a little relieved. It seemed that after so many years, she still had a lot of growth, and she also understood the importance of this matter.

The next number is 6. Akhan originally wanted to summon the bone dragon, but this time he decided to give the opportunity to Neferita and let her participate.

Although the number of summoned objects on the field is more than that of the opponent, the opponent's angels have been avoiding his bone dragon all the time. As long as he can't solve his bone dragon, the victory will belong to him after all.

What's more, none of the opponent's summons can get close to him now, and his health is still full, which is very safe.

Neferita didn't say much, but just inspired a magic scroll.

As the light shone, a deformed and ferocious head about the size of a carriage appeared on the spot.

Where its ears should have been, it was replaced by a pair of shriveled arms, and below the neck was a large mass of twisted tentacles.

As soon as they appeared, these disgusting tentacles burrowed into the ground one after another, trying to fix themselves.

But the floor with powerful magic protection is far from being able to penetrate, so it has nowhere to fix it, and soon it floats upward like a balloon.

While floating, but also sideways.

Even with a ferocious ugly face, outsiders still seem to be able to see it, and it is a little frightened.

Seeing this, Akhan couldn't help frowning a little, not only because she could actually drive demons to fight, but also because this demon named Giant Skull Demon had obvious advantages and disadvantages.

It is proficient at crowd control, charm, and hold, as well as breathing poisonous bile and using its tentacles for melee attacks when necessary.

But its biggest weakness is that it is inconvenient to move. It can fly, but it is neither fast nor flexible, so it usually fixes itself in a certain position before casting spells.

However, this problem is not too big, because when the summoned objects of the two sides actually encounter and fight, the chessboard will randomly select a terrain, and it can always be fixed.

But the key point is that, even though the number is 6, why did Neferita summon a level 5 demon?

Before Akhan could ask, Neferita had already put on a pitiful look: "I want to help you, but I forgot that I don't have a level 6 summoner."

In an instant, Akhan's anger disappeared completely. For how many years, Neferita had not spoken to him in this tone.

What is that little mistake in comparison?She just wanted to help herself, what's wrong with her? !
So he waved his hands again and again: "It's okay, it's okay, I know you want to help me, don't worry, we will win."

Seeing the opponent's actions, Li Wei on the other side couldn't help but feel a little interesting.

It is true that he has never personally fought against the Giant Skull Demon, but he is well aware of its many weaknesses.

In fact, since the Battle of Black Castle, he has been working hard to collect a lot of information about demons and devils. After encountering devils at Hell Gate Castle and being almost teased by the opponent, he intensified his efforts even at the expense of letting the sun Knights help spend money to buy information.

So when Neferita summoned such a thing, he felt that he might be able to roughly guess the other party's mind
Was it for revenge on Akhan, or because he underestimated himself and wanted to win the battle, and then waited for an opportunity to personally snatch the nine volumes of Nagash from himself?

Or simply kill two birds with one stone?
But, no matter what, I will prove with facts that both of you underestimated me!
