Long Live the Call of Heroes

Chapter 463 Strange Naval Battle

So, unless you embrace each other actively like Zeus, once you become a god, it is possible to resist the corruption of the four gods of chaos?
After returning to the city of Lahmia, he threw the damaged construct to Haplos for repair. Khalida went to check the fleet's preparations, Elegy and others replenished supplies, and Li Wei was still thinking about Lord Krocca what was said.

It's just that he didn't really want to ascend to the gods before he actually collected all the nine scrolls of Nagash.

Because he and Lilith have always suspected that in the nine volumes of Nagash, there is likely to be hidden knowledge about the priesthood or domain of death.

After all, Nagash single-handedly caused the deaths of tens of millions of people, and there will only be more people who died indirectly because of him.

It is completely understandable to say that he has realized some special power because of this.

Even though he bears a lot of notoriety, from ancient times to the present, he is still recognized as the number one talent among all human mages.

If you can get the priesthood of death and ascend to a god, it will be much better than ordinary miscellaneous gods.

But that can be said later, after taking a look at the ring, Li Wei found that it was still merging with the remaining divine power of the God of Mysteries.

There is not even a countdown, I don't know how much time it will take, let alone what it will look like after fusion.

So he turned to look at the divinity of the god of myths.

I don't know if the self-awareness in it was removed when it was handed over to Lord Krocca, or it gradually disappeared over the long years.

In short, on the notes of the system, there is only pure power and knowledge in it, and there is no thought or consciousness.

After pondering for a while, he directly chose to use it.

A few seconds later, Levi successfully obtained its power.

Portfolios of the God of Myths include: Protection, Protection from Magic, and Myths.

Li Wei is not sure about the domain he has mastered, because this god was very mysterious in the past.

Lilith also only knew a little bit, because before a certain time point, she was just an ordinary elf goddess who only knew about pleasure all day long, very heartless, just like most of her kind.

She seemed to wake up suddenly at a certain time.

Considering the many information she disclosed before, Li Wei already has a vague guess.

Did she get information from other Outer Gods, or was she also one of the Outer Gods?

But that has little to do with him for the time being, he just needs to know that she has always been nice to him is enough.

Her real identity is not important, what matters is her position, and her attitude towards Levi.

Closer to home, now he can be sure that the God of Myths must have the field of craftsmanship, because he has learned a magic related to it.

Craftsman's Touch: You can repair or damage constructs and magic items with a direct touch.

Now even if Hapolos is temporarily absent, he can repair the Sphinx and other constructs.

Moreover, Li Wei vaguely felt that there still seemed to be room for improvement in the process of making the Death Guard according to the foolish operation of the nine volumes of Nagash in the past.

This is what makes him more excited. If so, with his continuous proficiency, will he have the ability to independently manufacture the Death Guard after getting rid of the Nine Scrolls of Nagash?
Thinking of this, he didn't waste any more time, directly found a quiet place, and created the jackal guard he was most familiar with.

This process was not smooth at the beginning, but after many failed attempts, Li Wei was finally able to improve slightly, which immediately made him very excited.

Although the nine volumes of Nagash are good, he doesn't want to be bound by them for the rest of his life. After all, they are foreign objects. If he really learns the skills of his hands, it will belong to him forever.

So a little excited, he worked for several hours in a row.

Although there is still no change in his skill column, he is already confident, and after a few more times, he will be able to completely master this skill.

By the way, he also created some ancient tomb scorpions. This special unit can definitely show good strength when dealing with ratmen and other races that can also dig the ground.

After finishing all this, Donna walked over with a smile and told him some relevant information sent by Khaleda.

Greenskins and dwarves are still in the mountains, fighting around various strongholds.

The green-skinned side wins because they have a large number of people, and I have the power to think, so the offensive is very fierce.

The dwarves are better at having geography, and there are many god-chosen heroes from various races who choose to stand with them, which allows them to obtain a large number of reinforcements.

After all, compared to the green skins that don't even have gold coins, the various weapons, equipment, war equipment, and even runes of the dwarves are all good things.

So although there is a huge gap in the strength of the two sides, the dwarves can still bear it for the time being.

The green skins hold the initiative in the war, but they don't have more troops to deal with other races.

But this situation won't last long, because the dwarves are dying one less.

But during the duration of the super WAAAGH, the green skins seemed to be planted from the ground, almost endless, and the speed of replenishment was very fast.

And following races such as goblins, bear goblins, and trolls, kobolds have gradually begun to participate in actions against dwarves.

Perhaps for many God's Chosen heroes, kobolds seem to be similar to goblins, they are just mobile experience points from Novice Village.

But in fact, the further back, the greater the gap between the two sides, because the kobolds really have the blood of a dragon.

After they gradually become stronger and awakened as dragon vein warlocks, dragon card guards, etc., no matter their strength or wisdom, they will completely beat the goblins.

Coupled with the large enough number, the main god of the kobolds, Kurtumak, is considered to be relatively strong among the medium divine powers.

Although most of the kobolds only fought with dwarves before, but they are also good at mining, and they also have a lot of troubles with dwarves.

In short, I don't know if the green-skinned gods promised some kind of reward, or they simply wanted to take advantage of the fire, but now they chose to join, which made the green-skinned gods even more powerful.

When the dwarves can't hold on, it may be the time for them to have a chain defeat.

However, both Li Wei and Khaleda knew that this ideal situation for the green skins actually had a high probability of not happening.

Because the Cruel One-Etharion's Mist Expeditionary Army has been leaving for many days, and counting the time, it is almost time to arrive soon.

If he could hit the greenskins hard from behind, it would definitely disperse the greenskins' forces and give the dwarves a chance to breathe.

The Ratmen also completely shifted their targets, and put all the focus of their attack on the various human countries.

For them, humans are undoubtedly easier to deal with than elves or dwarves.

According to intelligence, many human officials would actively cover up the existence of the Ratman for the sake of their official positions, which undoubtedly helped them.

In the Sigmar Empire, a church named "Yellow Tooth Cult" gradually sprang up. Its members are all human beings, but they worship the god of ratmen, which left many insiders quite speechless.

At the same time, many Beastmen have already crossed mountains and mountains, and started to head towards the old den of the wood elves - the great forest of Athel Loren.

Unless they were unlucky enough to block their way forward, their overall threat to other races would be strictly speaking reduced a lot.

As for the snakemen and Nippeng pirates who frequently harass Khaleda's territory, they seem to have settled down a lot recently.

According to intelligence, they seem to have all been recruited by the sea queen, and then joined forces with the dark elves to fight against the sea dreamers and high elves.

In a word, everything is going well so far, and they can officially go to sea tomorrow to launch an attack on the dark elves.

So early the next morning, Li Wei got ready to go, and went to the port with Khaleda.

Even though he had expected it, Li Wei still raised his eyebrows. Khalida's handwriting this time is really big.

Looking around, there are hundreds of warships waving flags. The smallest one is 10 meters long, and there are many others that are thirty, forty, five or sixty meters long.

From a rough look, if they are fully loaded, Khalida will have to dispatch at least [-] to [-] troops this time.

Even for the Tomb Kings, who were relatively easy to obtain soldiers, this was not a small number.

But if it's a pure naval battle, she doesn't need to bring so many troops, because the naval battle is mainly based on long-range attacks, and the frequency of boarding battles is still very low.

Those who drive the ship, those who manipulate the war equipment such as ballistas and trebuchets on the ship, and then the archers, etc., and the melee troops are second.

Unless, Kalida not only wants to fight a naval battle, she also wants to fight a landing battle!

Seeing Li Wei's slightly emotional appearance, Khalida was also somewhat proud: "How is it, Li Wei, how is my fleet?"

"Well, very imposing."

I just don't know what the actual combat effectiveness is. Most of the warships here look old and in disrepair.

Or do they just like the tune?
Secretly complaining in his heart, Li Wei was also led by Khaleda to his warship.

She had said before that she would give him some of it.

It's just that after seeing the unique shape with his own eyes, Li Wei was somewhat speechless.

Do you Tomb Kings love pyramids so much?Even a warship has to be built like this?

That's right, the 70-meter-long warship that Khalida prepared for him has three pyramids of different sizes on it.

It has left various shooting holes, and it can be seen from the appearance that its defense will be strong, but pyramids are usually prepared for mummies
But it's her heart, anyway, and her flagship is no different.

So Li Wei thanked him with a smile, and then arranged for some of his troops to enter the warship, get familiar with the operation of the ballista as soon as possible, and prepare to get some experience points or something.

Yes, only some melee infantry, Donna will still float in the sky with the Sky Slayer, ranged troops, and air force.

Whether it is the sea queen, the sahuagin, or the dark elves, they are best at naval battles.

In the air, it was the safest for Donna and the others.

Then came the 30 dragon tortoise eggs that Su Mi had given him before. After careful care by the druids, and the emergency catalysis of the element spar and many other means, they are now mature.

These behemoths with a diameter of six to seven meters and a level 5 strength can all officially participate in the battle as the guards of the warship.

Khalida also told Li Wei that she had mobilized a full 4 army this time, and specially dispatched some elite archers from several towns in the south, just to fight this battle well.

As for the other God's Chosen heroes who signed up for the competition, according to rough statistics, tens of thousands of troops can also be gathered, and this does not include the [-] Aquarium troops brought by Shudun's sister, Su Mi.

This number of wars, not counting the previous battle to wipe out the Silver Blood Army, should have never happened in this area for hundreds of years.

"So, what's your plan?"

"Attack with the whole army, put pressure on the Gravel Islands, Dragon Tooth Mountain and Fear Rock at the same time, and then avoid the strong and attack the weak."

In fact, it shouldn't have been particularly complicated, since her fleet was so large.

As long as the other party is not a fool, since they sailed out of the port, they will definitely keep paying attention to their side.

Li Wei has nothing to do, let alone that this is Khaleda's own army, she has absolute control.

He has never commanded such a large-scale army before, so don't try to be brave.

"Then shall we separate, or..."

"Let's stay together, Marus Blackblade is a difficult character."

Li Wei took it for granted, even if he hadn't met the other party in person, but the other party was able to injure both the Dragon Prince and his legendary dragon without a flying mount, which showed his strength.

Moreover, the information he collected from various sources emphasized one point without exception, that he was almost immortal.

Whether it's physical or magical attack, either it doesn't break the defense at all, or the damage he receives is not as fast as his own recovery.

For him, if his strength is below a certain level, crowd tactics are meaningless.

Even Khalida asserted that Kuja would not be a match for the opponent if he did not have his own mount.

If there is a mount, the opponent will have a greater chance of winning.

Facing such an opponent, no matter how cautious you are, it is not too much.

There was no cumbersome process. After Li Wei met with Sumi, Khalida gave an order, and the fleet was roughly divided into four teams and set sail.

Warlord Scorpion and her many generals and priests marched towards Longya Mountain, the original den of the dark elves, trying to test the defensive strength there.

Some generals transferred from the south pointed their swords at the Rubble Islands.

The dark elves have set up many small outposts there, and their main purpose is to destroy them as much as possible.

For Li Wei and Su Mi, the other god-chosen heroes who belonged to her control were organized into a third team, and her constraints were relatively loose.

She only asked them to try their best to wipe out the enemy troops they encountered. If the enemy was too strong and their own side was unable to fight against it, they could also warn the other teams immediately.

Of course, it doesn't matter if there are those who insist on following her.

As for her and Li Wei, they went straight to Fear Rock.

Not long after the dark elves captured Fear Rock, although they first borrowed the power of the Nurgle demon's plague, according to the latest information, the lizardmen did not completely resist.

Therefore, many defensive facilities there have been destroyed. In a hurry, they may not have all been repaired. This is their opportunity.

Or no matter how bad it is, they can test out the opponent's main force.

And she also used a little trick. Her fleet is the smallest and the most ordinary in appearance, but its real strength is the strongest.

It probably won't do much, but at least it won't make her instantly recognizable.

In case the opponent's general is an idiot, she will have a chance.

She also plans to gradually approach Fear Rock, and she will further divide her troops and send out some suspicious soldiers to attract the opponent's attention, which is one of the reasons why she has prepared so many warships.

When fighting side by side with Li Wei before, she ate several times and even needed his rescue.

But this time, she wants to show him the true strength and wisdom of the Warrior Queen!
In the end, most of the god-chosen heroes did not choose to go with Khaleda.

Because after a recent period of observation, they have already seen that with Li Wei around, their chances of getting rich rewards from Khalida are not too great, so they might as well go out for a while.

Naturally, Su Mi also accompanied her, and after learning that there was still a lot of free space on Li Wei's boat, she took the initiative to bring a few little sisters over to rub the boat.

Although mermaids are born to swim, and those who are stronger can use magic to move at high speed without wagging their tails, but it is not as comfortable as taking a boat.

Li Wei also exchanged relevant information with her by the way. Su Mi and the others traveled hundreds of miles, running and killing them all the way.

In terms of personal experience, it is definitely better than those pure written records provided by Khalida.

Elegy and the others naturally also listened to it for a while, knowing more knowledge would not hurt.

In this way, Su Mi's small lecture hall of knowledge lasted for several hours. During the process, people continued to join and some people quit, only to be interrupted by a slightly harsh siren.

Li Wei, Su Mi and others stood up at the same time. They had driven hundreds of miles and encountered many low-level water monsters on the road, but they had never issued such an alarm before.

This can only show one thing, the enemy this time is much stronger than before!
The visitors were some common pirates in the nearby waters, but there were quite a few of them. Hundreds of ships ran out at one time, even larger than Khalida's army.

Although most of them look tattered, they are still full of momentum.

What is particularly special is that there are not only bald Nibon pirates among them, but also some snake people.

They are still easy to distinguish, because the appearance of the warships is completely different from each other.

Seventy to eighty percent of the Nepene pirates were small dilapidated boats. It was already a miracle that such warships could go to sea.

Their fighting method is usually to launch a wave of weak arrows first, and then take the initiative to stick to them, start hand-to-hand combat, and even capture the enemy's ships.

Because as long as they can grab a boat, at least it will definitely not be worse than their original one.

They are also the least threatening of all pirates.

If it's the kind of square-shaped building ship, then don't think too much about it, it must be an official pirate supported by some famous Nippeng names.

Their threat level will skyrocket, because they will basically be equipped with weapons such as cannons and muskets on board.

Most of the warships of the snake people are long strips, and there are often some hideous snake heads on the bows, which are very easy to distinguish.

However, they are not just decorations, they can often shoot highly poisonous arrows, or simply venom.

Originally, these two kinds of pirates would not fight side by side. The Nibon pirates didn't want to mess with the snake people, because basically they couldn't beat them.

But the snake people belong to the chaotic evil camp, and they will attack all races indiscriminately, almost like demons.

Looking at their harmonious appearance now, it is obvious that they were all dealt with by the Queen of the Sea.

The God of Snake Man-Mershok, although he is of medium power, he is lonely and suffers beatings from the Cathay Dragon God all the year round. Occasionally, the gods of Inda and even the Monkey King will find trouble with him.

Thinking about it, he has always wanted to find some powerful allies. Kane, the God of blood hands behind the sea queen and the dark elves, will undoubtedly be a very suitable candidate.

Su Mi also looked solemn, and after quickly saying hello to Li Wei, he jumped into the sea and began to command the troops.

She didn't forget that the reason why she followed Li Wei was to repay his kindness through fighting!
The Tomb Fleet on the other side didn't need Khalida to speak, as several generals commanded the fleet to attack.

The Tomb Kings didn't use artillery, but the ammunition of their trebuchets was not ordinary stones, but enchanted ones. In terms of attack power alone, they might be higher than their counterparts.

Li Wei was not idle either. For the time being, there was no need for Donna and the others to take action against an enemy of this level. Let Cindy, Sepha, and Sally get acquainted with naval battles.

Now all of them are equipped with magic flying carpets, and they are relatively free to fight.

As for the small sailboats of the Nepene pirates, after a fireball, they are not all set alight?
As for Li Wei himself, he performed advanced summoning monsters several times first, allowing several ichthyosaurs and ancient giant turtles to join the battlefield.

Then he summoned dozens of manatee love thorns. These third-level little guys almost never showed their faces in the previous battles.

Because they are purely aquatic creatures, and their combat effectiveness is quite good, but in this case, being a scout is not a big problem.

In the end, he cast the dragon cloud technique for the first time, and he really wanted to know what kind of existence this eighth-level spell could summon?
"Jiang Ang!"

As he cast the spell, a voice was not loud, but rather strange, a roar that seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts, resounded among the clouds.

The little female dragon, who was still thinking about whether or not she should just take fish in the face of such a chicken enemy, suddenly became agitated, and she remembered what an elder had warned her about.

Li Wei was also stunned for a moment, no wonder the spell notes said the summoned dragon, not the giant dragon, because the god dragon of Cathay is also considered a dragon!

That's right, this is an electric dragon with a purple body and lightning flashes all over its body.

Normally, the dragons and dragon gods in Cathay refer to the same meaning, because even in the most prosperous time, Cathay only had 11 dragon gods.

A powerful couple with nine children.

Afterwards, some of their children may have had offspring with mortals, but very few of them could transform into dragons.

And that often requires a long casting time, special rituals and materials, and so on.

At the same time, it will also become extremely fragile during casting. In short, it is difficult to do it on the battlefield, and it is definitely difficult to appear as quickly as the dragon cloud element.

Therefore, what is commonly referred to as Shenlong is the dragon god.

That's why Li Wei was so surprised, he really didn't expect it.

As an existence with a Tier 6 elite template, its hand-to-hand combat ability may not be particularly strong, and it is not as good as the Iron Dragon Golem of the same level, but it is better than that it can fly, swim, and cast a variety of wind and electricity spells .

And most importantly, the signature ability - the power of the dragon, all units whose rank is not higher than it may be affected.

The specific effects range from weakening the opponent's attributes, to simply imposing fear, making them run away, and so on.

No, it hasn't launched any attack yet, but simply approached Li Wei from the summoning position, and many enemies in the water below were already terrified.

Whether it's the pirates of Nibon or the snake people from the hinterland of Horace, how could they not recognize this image?
Especially the heroine of the blue sea in the Dragon God of Cathay-Ming Long-Yinyin, she is also the admiral of the dragon fleet, she has personally participated in the battle against the Nippeng pirates more than once
Even though many of them didn't even enter the scope of its skills, the fear that penetrated deep into their bones and souls was already reminding them:

Invincible, escape priority!

So there was no sign at all, at least fifty or sixty Nippeng pirate ships began to escape, making many of their companions look confused.

Li Wei's eyes lit up immediately, and he directly instructed Longyun Element to launch the most powerful spell, destroying many small broken ships with one blow.

This made the surrounding Nepene pirates more and more sure that it was not some kind of illusory illusion, but a real existence.

As a result, more Nippeng pirates suddenly realized, and began to turn the bow of the ship, preparing to escape for their lives.

Although the reason why they cooperated with the sea queen and the dark elves was partly due to the strength of the other party, and partly because of the gold coins.

But no matter how tempting gold coins are, they have to live back to enjoy them, otherwise their family property and wives may be cheaper than a neighbor.

The snake people were a little confused at first, but soon under Li Wei's deliberate instructions, they also noticed the existence of the dragon cloud element.

Li Wei deliberately asked Su Mi and others to cooperate with the boat digging underwater, confusing many snake people one after another.

At the same time, let Donna lead the team to attack, now is a good time to enter the field to harvest.

Although things were slightly unexpected, Khalida certainly did not miss this opportunity.

She also had the tomb priests team up to cast a spell, creating some kind of super-giant illusion of a dragon.

Now even the stupid snake man knows what happened.

In addition, the top of the head has to bear the blows of trebuchets, arrow rain and magic, and there seem to be some monsters digging ships in the sea. All this makes them realize that the other party is a tough nut to crack.

So within a quarter of an hour after the war started, the snake people began to follow in the footsteps of the Nippeng pirates and also started to escape.

Just running like this, you can see the difference between the two warships.

The Nippeng pirates are okay, they are either small boats that can turn around, or special warships imitated from Cathay and modified.

Both the front and back can be temporarily used as the stern or bow, so most of them run smoothly.

But the snake people are very uncomfortable, because the shape of their warship is determined, and they need a relatively large space to turn around.

Usually it's fine, but now that the two sides are on fire, how could the enemy be taken by them?
Of course, Khalida would not give them a chance. The warships of the Tomb Kings may not look glamorous, but they also have many advantages, one of which is that they run fast.

Not only because the warship is powered by magic, but also because most of the ships are filled with skeletons or mummies, and the whole body weighs only a few pounds.

At the same time, Li Wei also gradually realized that Khalida had indeed prepared a lot for this naval battle.

Although the defense and health of the skeleton archers she brought this time are still very fragile, and they can be said to disappear at the first touch, a considerable part of them use enchanted arrows, which greatly improves their killing efficiency.

But despite this, the chase lasted for almost an hour before it was completely over.

Looking around, on the surface of the sea, there are fragments and corpses of warships everywhere, and many places are simply stained red with blood.

After the battle was over, Li Wei and the others unsurprisingly won another epic victory, which increased his battle level by one level, and Cindy and the others also gained their own.

Legal units such as Saifa and Sally are even softer with experience points.

Because many of the small broken ships of the Nippeng pirates are all on the spot.

Those who fell into the water, no matter whether they were burned to death, drowned, or killed by other friendly forces, they would be given part of their experience points.

The situation is similar to those dragon turtles. They often swim under the boat of the Nippeng pirates, and then suddenly accelerate to the surface, and they can directly knock over or destroy the boat, which is slightly stronger than Li Wei expected.

It's just that the fighters such as Elegy feel a bit boring, because most of them are watching the show most of the time, and in this kind of chasing battle, there is almost no chance for them to make a move.

Su Mi and the others were also very happy. They originally came here to repay their kindness, and they were ready to pay a heavy price.

But who would have thought that this first naval battle would go so smoothly?

Apart from about a hundred or so sea snakes, the opponent didn't have any other powerful troops under the water.

Those kappa boys brought by those Nibon pirates, how could they be used for naval battles?So they played really well in this battle.

Khalida is also very happy, because after the battle statistics, her own losses are only a few tenths of the enemy's.

Most of this was caused by those snake people who saw the situation was not good and chose to fight to the end.

Although they look quite ugly, in fact there are still some strong people among them.

So she didn't care about Li Wei's behavior of exposing them directly in the first battle.

With this result, even if she faces the Dragon Prince Imrik in person, she already has enough confidence.

She just didn't expect that just a phantom of the dragon god of Zhendan could exert such power.

How scared are they of each other?And the gods of the Nibon pantheon and the snake-man have always allowed this kind of emotion to breed?
Or are they simply powerless to do anything about it?

In contrast, the quantity and quality of the spoils they harvested this time are somewhat unsatisfactory.

On the one hand, it is because the opponent is really poor, and on the other hand, it is because of the special environment of naval warfare.

If a lot of trophies are not salvaged in time, a wave will pass by, and it will not be known where it will be photographed.

When the battle is fierce, even if Su Mi and the other aquariums are watching, it is difficult to achieve perfection, which is helpless.

But after a short period of joy, Li Wei frowned.

Because he noticed that among the enemies this time, the number and proportion of legal units such as snake-man conjurers and snake-man priests were unexpectedly high.

It is almost 10 times higher than the information provided by Khalida before, which is too abnormal.

Does this mean that the cooperation between the snake god, the sea queen and the dark elves is deeper than they expected?
When Li Wei raised this concern, Khalida smiled slightly: "Li Wei, don't worry, the snake god is not without enemies."

"It just so happens that you have a very good stepping stone."

After a slight pause, she continued: "You may not know that among the nine second-generation dragon gods in Zhendan, four have not been seen in public for a long time."

"I once got news from the Yuan family that some of them were missing, including Guanglong-Shenzhu."

"At a time like this, do you think it's really just a pure coincidence that you used the holy magic from the Seven Heavens Mountain to summon the form of the dragon?"
