Long Live the Call of Heroes

Chapter 461 The Sealed Land
Kuja was the first to enter it immediately, and no matter what danger lay ahead, he would be the first to greet it.

But unexpectedly, there didn't seem to be anything inside, it was still just a magic passage, so a large number of lizardmen also followed in neat steps.

In Li Wei's view, every movement of them is almost exactly the same, as precise as a robot, which is something that even most high elves cannot do.

Perhaps, only the discipline of the Phoenix Guard can be compared with it.

These guardian lizardmen are originally killing weapons for war, and the common warrior lizardmen and poisonous lizardmen in the wild are probably only similar in name and appearance.

Sighing a little, Li Wei also took Khalida and others, and began to enter it in order under the escort of many lizardmen.

Then he discovered that this passage was a bit similar to the Double Moon World, and it was also shrouded in hazy mist, and the viewing distance was very limited.

The difference is that the mist here is also pink and purple. If they encounter enemies next, they will most likely be some Tzeentch demons.

Based on the knowledge of this demon, Li Wei asked everyone to be more vigilant.

With the opponent's cunning, if the lizard people tried several times before, they would definitely be noticed by the opponent.

Now that the Lizardman sent an army in, would the other party really be completely indifferent?Then they are not the Tzeentch demons who like to play tricks the most!

Khalida, Elegy and others naturally chose to obey, and Mikaela also had the same attitude.

If it was a week ago, she would definitely not look like this.

But after this contact, especially after experiencing the things in the double moon world, and seeing the attitude of the gods towards Li Wei with her own eyes, her concept has undergone a fundamental change.

She has vaguely regarded herself as Li Wei's subordinate, and everyone can feel this.

But after a quick look around, the others were fine, and Catherine's eyes were still fixed on those tyrannosaurs.

Li Wei was dumbfounded immediately, could it be that she also wanted to get a mount?
Well, it's not entirely impossible.

Among all dinosaurs, Tyrannosaurus rex is also one of the fiercest and most difficult to tame.

But if Catherine relies on her dragon race talent, it is possible to successfully exert coercion on Tyrannosaurus no higher than level 6.

Just when he was about to get closer, a series of roars suddenly sounded in front of him, and then a male voice that sounded full of malice suddenly rang out: "The Tao of Tseng Qi Chang Chang!"

The pink-purple mist suddenly flashed, and Li Wei felt the vast magic power fluctuating around him.

At the same time, the Spiritual Lizard Priest in front, as well as Mazda Moody, who kept in touch with the team through the miniature pyramid, shouted angrily.

Khalida and the others also became nervous, but only Li Wei sighed helplessly. How could he not be surprised at all?

I don't know if it's the special status of God's Chosen Hero, or if he has some hidden bonuses.

Anyway, so far, he has not been able to complete almost all the important things easily and smoothly.

Perhaps, this is the treatment of the protagonist?
Secretly complaining, accompanied by a whirlwind, a few seconds later, they came to another new world.

Well, at least now there is no annoying fog, and there is even a power shield protecting them, which is good news.

The bad news is, there are a lot of demons out there.

At this moment, they were located on the open-air platform of a magnificent building. As far as their eyes could see, the sky was full of objects mixed with flames falling from the sky.

At first glance it may appear to be a meteor, but it is not.

Some of them are all kinds of powerful fire magic, while the other part are demons surrounded by flames.

On the streets tens of meters below, countless lizardmen, monitor lizard warriors, and various dinosaurs were fighting each other to the death, vying for every inch of land.

Looking around, in the entire city, there are at least hundreds of energy shields similar to those around them, and each shield means a battlefield.

But almost every minute and every second, the light disappeared, and the sheltered existence seemed to be self-evident.

Just looking at them, Li Wei frowned a little. The other party didn't seem to be real, but more like a projection.

But the smell of blood and the stench of charred corpses in the air are all real.

The way of treacherous change
Li Wei silently repeated this special word in his heart, and at this moment, a series of low voices suddenly sounded behind him.

"My God, how did I become like this!"

"Look, everyone is!"

"Levy!"

Li Wei glanced around quickly, and then he found that the appearance of everyone on his side, including Khalida, had undergone a huge change, and they turned into lizardmen and skinks.

Even those mounts were no exception, they basically turned into Cold Ones and Pterosaurs and so on.

Among them, the little female dragon was the most panicked. Her pure-blooded dragon turned into a flying lizard. How could she accept it?
But even if they turned into lizardmen, it was hard to hide their beauty, and their figures were completely wrong.

Lizardmen, Skinlizards, Monitor Lizards, and Demon Toads are all male or asexual. No matter how developed their chest and gluteal muscles are, they don't have the exaggerated curves of Elegy.

When checking himself, Li Wei was not surprised to find that his arms were also covered with a layer of fine scales.

He stretched out his hand to caress, well, not to mention, it is indeed the touch of scales.

But like those demons who are fighting, there is still a sense of hypocrisy.

He knew that this was definitely not a change in his race, it was just some kind of extremely clever illusion.

However, there was not even any system prompt, and his status bar did not change at all, which showed that the opponent's strength was really strong.

Could it be the prank of Tzeentch's demon, or the power of Lord Kroka?
"An Xin, Ning Xin Jing Qi, this is just an illusion."

After hearing Li Wei's words, everyone calmed down.

In fact, with their wisdom, as long as they wait a few more seconds, they might be able to find out.

But they are also concerned about chaos. As women, even if they don't pay special attention to their appearance, they are still far from completely ignoring it.

At the same time, Li Wei also quickly cast the summoning magic.

But soon he discovered that the mana was indeed consumed, but he summoned a lonely, and no celestial creature appeared in front of him.

He immediately realized that this special plane's ability to isolate celestial creatures was stronger than that in the double moon world at the beginning.

He turned to summoning elements and summoning monsters, and then, without accident, all of them ended in failure.

Even the high-ranking Red Flame Envoy and Dragon Head Divine Envoy couldn't be contacted at all.

He couldn't help raising his eyebrows, he couldn't use the summoning technique, and this didn't affect his strength at 01:30.

But fortunately, he still has a large number of death guards and dragon golems, as well as many sphinxes.

At this time, Elegy and the others quickly calmed down, noticed Li Wei's movements, and they also vaguely realized something.

But before they had time to ask questions, the energy shield that originally protected them began to dissipate slowly, and the smell of blood and stench in the air became more intense.

"Hey, brother Li Wei, look!"

Following the direction of Cindy's finger, Li Wei and the others found a light cocoon slowly emerging from the wall behind them.

Despite the occlusion, they could roughly tell that it should be a magic toad.

But unlike the legendary image of a potbellied man, he looks only one meter tall and very thin, because he is a sleeping mummy.

But the vast energy rippling all over his body like substance, no one dared to underestimate him in the slightest.

Without any hesitation at all, almost everyone immediately judged that the other party was the Lord Kroka they were looking for and saving this time!
Only Li Wei felt a little strange, the other party didn't resonate with his ring, as if the other party didn't have any power of the God of Mysteries at all.

But with so many features gathered at the same time, it seems that there is no other possibility.

After thinking about it, he still took the initiative to go forward and try to communicate with the other party.

Not surprisingly, he didn't receive any response, and the other party still looked the same.

Even because he was a mummy, he was completely unable to judge whether the other party was awake by breathing or other methods.

What he can be sure of is that the opponent's magic protection is very strong.

At this moment, there was an excited roar, a demon leader who was five or six meters tall cruelly cut off the head of a Tyrannosaurus rex, and then raised its head high, declaring his might .

The morale of the surrounding Lizardmen, who were already at the end of their strength, suddenly dropped. A few Skinlizards fled first, and then the remaining Lizardmen also fled in all directions.

Seeing this, Li Wei couldn't help frowning secretly.

The Skinlizard could understand that they were never professional fighters, but what about the good lizardmen who never retreated?
Then the demon waved the machete in his hand a few times in the air, and his eyes gradually shifted to Li Wei's body.

Already holding a snake-headed spear, Khalida walked to Li Wei's side: "Li Wei, what should we do now?"

Compared with others, she can recover from the state just now.

Not only because she has experienced many battles, but also because she was transformed into a vampire by Neferita, and turned into a special half-life and half-dead creature by the snake god.

Now she is rescued by Lilith again, so she is more able to adapt to the many changes that have taken place in her body.

Even if he really became a lizardman, so what?
As long as you keep living, sooner or later there will be a day of change.

"Let's fight, kill all the demons in front of us first, and then look for Kuja's trace."

No matter whether his suspicion is true or not, there is one thing he can be sure of, even if these demons are created illusions, they are also illusions that can kill people!

"Wait, Li Wei, I seem to know this place." Saifa rubbed her head and walked over.

Seeing her appearance, Li Wei immediately remembered the last time, did she recover part of her previous life, the memory of Mage Yufeng?

"Although there are many differences, this should be the original city of Lizardmen - Itaza"

Donna, Elegy and the others also came to a sudden realization.

"That's where Lord Kroka died in battle."

"Could this be his last battle before his death?"

"It's very possible, maybe he was sealed here, repeating the memory of the original battle."

"And then under the power of Tzeentch's demon, the memory became real?"

They are not stupid, although most of them are not mages, do not know any powerful spells, and those who know spells must be completely incomparable with Lord Kroka.

But following Li Wei for so long and experiencing so much, it is not difficult to make such a reasoning.

Li Wei generally agreed with this, so while they were talking, he had already summoned more death guards.

"Come on, Sepha, take us to the Bridge of Stars."

In the original battle, it was the wanderer Nakai who alone guarded the bridge of stars leading to the core area of ​​the city.

Nakai didn't come this time, who is most likely to replace him?Of course it could only be Kuja!

No matter whether his other guesses are correct or not, it is absolutely correct to fight Kuja with such a powerful force first.

As for Lord Krocca who stays here
Despite some secret doubts, Li Wei left behind forty or fifty constructs.

Except that there are no Sphinxes due to terrain restrictions, there are some other types of death guards and dragon golems.

As long as it is not invaded by a large group of demons, they are enough to protect it.

At least on the surface, Li Wei still attaches great importance to him.

The plan has been made, and there is nothing to say next.

Li Wei and the others first relied on the favorable location to attract all the nearby demons and killed them all.

After an actual battle, not only Li Wei, but everyone else felt something was wrong.

Each of these demons looks very ferocious, but their actual fighting power is not worthy of their appearance.

There are even many demons who choose to escape directly when the battle is unfavorable!

"Li Wei, why do I think they don't look like demons, but more like ratmen?"

As Donna, who has many big cats under her command, she undoubtedly has a say in this matter.

Cindy also nodded hurriedly: "That's right, that's right, I've smelled a pungent stench more than once. It's not from the devil, it must belong to the Ratman."

Elegy also found the details: "Those flying demons seem to have never approached us through the air."

"They were either dealt with by the lizardmen in mid-air, or they fell to the ground first and then attacked us."

"Could it be that the Ratmen never had any air forces? They might all be fakes?"

Ratmen have many advantages, but their weaknesses are also extremely obvious.

First, they don't have any air force at all.

Secondly, there are only a very small number of "sewer river armies" in them, which is summed up by many human countries recently.

Khalida even made inferences: "The combat effectiveness of those lizardmen is generally much weaker. Could it be that they are also disguised by some evil race?"

She had to have such doubts, because according to the known information, although Tzeentch's demons love to play tricks and tricks, what they want most is not the result, but to enjoy the process.

As for the killing and gore, that was just incidental.

If you want to use Tzeentch's ever-changing way, you need at least one ever-changing demon lord. If you put it in the bottomless abyss, it will be a proper demon lord, or the stronger one.

Now they have entered the home field where the opponent may have occupied for more than a thousand years. God knows how many tricks the opponent can come up with.

"That's right, and they completely refuse to communicate with us to any extent. After killing all the enemies in front of them, they will retreat immediately and then disappear."

Even the newcomer Kai Ruilian expressed her opinion, and now she found out that unlike other lords or leaders, Li Wei encouraged his subordinates to express their opinions, and seemed to be deliberately cultivating their ability to think independently and make decisions.

So she will seize the time to express herself.

This made the little female dragon who had never spoken next to her very speechless, because most of the knowledge she passed down was all kinds of magic, and it didn't target this aspect.

Just now she was only focused on fighting again, and didn't pay attention to these details at all.
Li Wei pondered for a while: "Those lizardmen should be mostly real, and perhaps making us suspicious of them is exactly what the Lord of Changes wants to see."

As for refusing to communicate with them, it is very normal for the lizard people, and the xenophobia of the lizard people is the strongest among all races.

It was after they retreated, walking and walking, they suddenly didn't know where they went, which made him secretly startled.

The Ever-changing Demon Lord's control over this place is much stronger than he expected.

Khalida and the others thought about it, and it seemed that this was indeed the case.

Although Tzeentch's demon is called a demon, it is actually more like a devil in many ways, and likes to play with people's hearts.

On the contrary, Elegy showed no fear: "It doesn't matter what happened to them, we will fight with Kuja first, and then kill all the demons, and the other party will show up sooner or later."

Li Wei, who was looking back at Lord Krocca, immediately withdrew his gaze.

He smiled slightly: "The elegy is right, Sefa, please help me, continue to guide the way."

No matter how many conspiracies and tricks there are, at the last critical moment, it still depends on each other's hard power!

So Khalida and Elegy waited on the ground, massacring many constructs.

Especially the Sphinx among them can be said to sweep thousands of troops, and every move can cause a lot of casualties.

Li Wei and Donna rode the Frostheart Phoenix together, cast various magic spells with Mikaela, Sefa and others, and carried out indiscriminate bombing.

No matter how powerful the Ever-changing Demon King is, he can't conjure troops out of thin air. These ratmen disguised as demons are definitely elite within their race, but for Li Wei and the others, they are nothing more than that .

Sonia and Kai Ruilian shoulder another task, which is to keep an eye on each other's true identities.

Although Lilith's power is protecting Li Wei, it is unlikely that their conversation just now will be heard by the Lord of Changes.

But from their actions, it may also be aware of it.

In case it intends to play tricks and suddenly replaces the ratmen with lizardmen, and then they kill them again, then Li Wei will have a hard time explaining to Kuja.

Then, under Sepha's guidance, they killed all the demons they encountered while heading towards the Star Bridge.

Li Wei doesn't know whether the ever-changing demon king hidden in the dark is a legend, or whether he also has fragments of godhead like the previous Slaanesh God Keeper of Secrets.

He only knew one thing, that the opponent was indeed ridiculously strong, and they hadn't found any new loopholes in the city during this journey.

On the contrary, they have honed a lot of experience in street fighting and urban warfare. Most of their battles took place in the wilderness before, which can be regarded as a rare experience.

As they continued to advance, more and more demons died at their hands, and they became more and more sure that the true identity of these guys was the Ratmen.

Because they had never seen a demon who could use a dimensional flamethrower and a dimensional gun before, not to mention other tails, fangs, and other details unique to ratmen.

Even if the Lord of Changes disguised the bullets to a certain extent, trying to make them mistakenly believe that they were the innate abilities of demons, he still couldn't completely deceive them.

But despite this, the opponent is strong enough, because so far, more than four thousand ratmen have died in their hands.

Even if they didn't bring troops in, their killing speed was not slow either.

The Lord of Changes cast illusions on so many Ratmen, the Lizardmen they were fighting against, and Li Wei at the same time, and their power was so powerful.

These cunning ratmen didn't know what method they used, but they also found Lord Kroka's sealed place, and then they were used by the Lord of Changes, becoming cannon fodder to stop them.

But the problem that Li Wei was worried about never really came up.

I don't know if the Lord of Changes thinks it is unnecessary, or it is already unable to do more things.

But those are irrelevant, because they have already seen the bright bridge of stars in front of them, and a lizardman-Kuja riding a tall Tyrannosaurus on it.

Behind him are several lizardmen heroes riding tyrannosaurs, and some giant horned cold lizard cavalry.

But the number is significantly less than before, and it is not known whether they got separated or were lost in the battle.

Even so, Li Wei and the others all heaved a sigh of relief.

As long as you make peace with Kuja, your own power will be further strengthened.

Moreover, Mazda Moody outside must be trying hard to help Kuja, and they may also benefit by the way.

At this time, as the distance between the two sides continued to approach, a new foul smell also hit the breeze.

This is also one of the most obvious weaknesses of the Lord of Changes. He can change the appearance of things, but he cannot change the smell.

It's just that after taking a short breath, even with Li Wei's calmness, he couldn't help but stare round in an instant, and almost spit it out.

Warriors like Khalida and Elegy were alright, but weaker mages like Mikaela and Sepha also behaved quite unbearably. They all retched, apparently unable to stand the stench.

Because it is different from the stench on the Ratman before, this stench is more like old sauerkraut, rotten eggs, sour bamboo shoots, stinky tofu, rotten corpses and animal feces, etc. Many stinky things are put together and fermented It has been used for decades, and the taste is extremely strong.

Li Wei has never tried his own stinky cloud technique, but he thinks this thing is probably more powerful than the stinky cloud technique!
He quickly cast a few wind-making spells to forcefully dispel the stench.

The only consolation is that compared with the stinking cloud technique, its duration is not so long, as long as you don't smell it all the time, you can still recover quickly.

But even so, everyone was terrified, even Khaleda was no exception.

She can barely hold back, but she definitely doesn't want to keep smelling this thing!
Thinking of this, the way she looked at Kuja who was not far away also became full of respect.

They are still some distance away from the real battlefield, but the opponent has been fighting in it.

To be able to achieve this level is indeed a true warrior, and she is still far from it.

The elegy next to her also felt admiration, but she really couldn't learn it if she was asked to learn it.

Even for the first time, she had the idea of ​​avoiding the battle, because this thing is so disgusting!

Only after a brief accident, Li Wei quickly reflected: "This seems to be the demon of Nurgle?"

It seems that only Nurgle among the four gods of chaos can be so disgusting.

Although the four gods of chaos are all ascended by demons, they are all hostile to each other. The ever-changing demon king uses Kuja's hand to crusade against Nurgle's demon, which is exactly a plan to kill two birds with one stone.

It's just that Mazda Moody claimed to have searched for thousands of years but couldn't find it. As a result, except for Tzeentch, the ratmen first, and then Nurgle, all came to the door.

In the process of transmission, such an accident occurred, which was a bit of a slap in the face.

But it can also be explained from the side that this lord of Kroka is even more than a Tang monk in their hearts!
At the same time, Li Wei vaguely felt that he seemed to know how the dark elves made a deal with the Nurgle demon.

The two conspired to attack the spirit of Taboc. Afterwards, the dark elves obtained the other party's territory, and the Nurgle demon obtained the secrets kept by the other party, and then came to capture Lord Kroka. This is a win-win situation.

It's just that the demon Nurgle probably didn't expect that there would be more than one spoiler now.

While thinking about it, Li Wei also readjusted his battle strategy.

If you are facing the demon of Nurgle, it is best not to play melee personnel like Elegy and the others.

The demons of Nurgle are famous for their plagues, but in fact they play a variety of tricks, basically all known diseases, they can spread.

In other words, a considerable number of diseases appear precisely because of them.

Weakness and poisoning are just the most elementary, and bleeding, cramping, atrophy of limbs, internal rot, etc., are just ordinary things.

A little more advanced ones even have the ability to permanently change the opponent's appearance and figure.

For example, a few more eyes grow out, or the belly splits open, turning into a ferocious mouth full of sharp teeth, and so on.

The demons of Nurgle think this is a great blessing, so almost all the demons of Nurgle look like fat green men with sores on their heads, pus on their feet, and a stinky body.

At the same time, they also have one or more of the above-mentioned characteristics, and even the blood will undergo extremely serious mutations, or simply become other things.

For example, acid, vomit, fluid metal, or simply feces and maggots and other incredible things.

While under the influence of demonic power, demons of Nurgle enjoy it and gain additional power from it.

Some Nurgle demons can even spit out imps alive to serve as their own troops.

But for normal mortals, they can only enjoy pain.

In comparison, the ratmen's plague was more than one level worse.

Although Nurgle is known as the Lord of Plague, in fact, the plague of demons is not the same thing as the plague understood by mortals.

It might not kill you instantly, and it might even give you special powers, but you'd probably want to die.

So Li Wei was not willing to let Elegy and Cindy go to fight the Nurgle demon in person.

Even if Lilith had the bottom line, there was a high probability that she could be saved afterwards.

But if they experienced it once, it would definitely become a nightmare they will never forget.

To deal with Nurgle demons, either use long-range attacks to eliminate them in advance, or use lifeless constructs and elemental creatures that will not be affected.

When there is really no choice, it is also summoned objects such as celestial creatures to use as cannon fodder.

Unlike most other demon lords, the Four Gods of Chaos play too many tricks, so they can finally become the demon gods.

In contrast, Khorne may have the least gameplay. He only likes blood and carnage. When he is free, he piles up skulls and piles up thrones or something.

But it doesn't mean that he is easy to deal with, even on the contrary, because he is strong enough, so he doesn't play with those gadgets.

Although Li Wei didn't say it, Elegy immediately understood what he meant, and decided to accept the kindness, because she really couldn't stand that stuff.

Similarly, Khalida did not insist, she was not sick, so she would not take the initiative to seek guilt.

After slightly adjusting the formation, they also took out some special masks and the like.

It was originally purchased in Lahmia City, for their next march into the desert, as a magic item for sand and dust prevention, and now it just comes in handy.

But when Li Wei and the others gradually approached the Bridge of Stars and Kuja, the accident happened again.

He stabbed a demon to death with a spear, then turned his head and glared at Li Wei: "Is the leader of the demon? Don't even think about crossing this place. I will never let the tragedy of Ashoto repeat itself. I will not become the last guard again." By!"
