Long Live the Call of Heroes

Chapter 575 Elysium

This time, Duke Lucan also responded to him immediately, so with a faint white light shining, he came to a piece of green grass.

The flowers around are as bright as the stars in the sky, the clear pond in the distance is like a shining gem, and the silver clouds are floating under the flawless sky. Everything here has a very strong color contrast, but it is so beautiful and peaceful.

At the same time, the active positive energy also flows through Li Wei's whole body. He doesn't need to look at it at all. He knows that in this environment, all magics that are biased towards light and kindness will be greatly strengthened, while dark magic will be greatly strengthened. suppress.

Ordinary undead races below level 7 may be easily purified the moment they appear.

Farther away are open grasslands and rolling fields, as well as a huge river that flows continuously. In the farthest horizon, there are torrents and waterfalls falling from the sky.

This is not a description. Although the Elysium is not as good as Tiantang Mountain, the Elysium also has four floors.

A deep ocean, home to a variety of marine life;
A swamp full of life is the favorite of swamp creatures such as crocodiles and frogs;
The first floor is half of mountains and half of rivers. In addition to the regular Gaidin Celestial Clan, there may also be some angels, elemental genies, and so on.

Compared with Star King's Court and Paradise Mountain, Gaidin Celestial Clan's Elysium is very welcome to the existence of many good camps, so this place has also become a relatively famous tourist place.

It's not just for playing, but also a place where many kind-hearted beings meet friends.

As well as the layer where Li Wei is located, the layer with grasslands and woods, they are the layer with the largest population and number of Gaidin Celestial Clan.

However, each floor has a river named Sea God River, which runs through the entire Elysium. It is said that it was left behind by a kind Sea God, but now its name and history have been annihilated in the past.

In addition, there are some small portals in Elysium, connecting the Ten Thousand Beasts Garden and the Twin Paradise.

The former is a paradise for all kinds of beasts and animal lords. In theory, animals that exist in the main world can be found there. Therefore, they have always had a good relationship with the Gaidin Celestial Clan, who also have the characteristics of beasts.

The Twin Paradise mainly lived in a large group of dwarf gods, several dwarf gods, and the dragon god-Bahamut and so on.

Therefore, compared to Star King's Court, Elysium is easier to enter.

Looking around now, Gading Celestial Clans of various forms are roaming freely here. Compared with the drinking and carnival of the Ethorn Celestial Clans, what they enjoy is another kind of life.

Occasionally there are spirits of various races including gnomes, dwarves, and humans, as well as humanoids with gold and silver skin and eyes.

They are of the Asmer family, basically humans or elves with part of the blood of the Celestial Race.

In fact, the enthusiastic and unrestrained Assassins are often more likely to produce love crystals with mortals, but it is a pity that the Star Royal Court will not let foreigners enter casually.

Therefore, even if offspring are born, they will basically spend the rest of their lives in the main world, or in the land of bliss, or the kingdom of some kind gods.

At this moment, the Duke of Lucan and the Successor of the Wind, who had dealt with Li Wei before, were already standing there waiting for Li Wei.

In addition, there was a male Crazy Horse Envoy, and Li Wei immediately knew that the other party should be another reinforcement that Duke Lucan was looking for for him, that is, the Crazy Horse Envoy who voluntarily retired - Lord Huiwin.

Although there is also a Crazy Horse Envoy among the Five Gaiding Lords, but that one is a woman.

So Li Wei immediately greeted them very enthusiastically, and they responded one after another.

Crazy Horse Envoy-Lord Huiwen also quickly expressed his willingness to sign a contract with Li Wei to fight against evil together.

He doesn't have any special affection for Li Wei, but he and Duke Lucan are good brothers, even for the sake of each other, he will help.

Lord Huiwin's combat effectiveness is relatively mediocre among the many current and former Gading Five Lords.

His ability is also very mediocre, good in attack, defense and speed, and he also knows some spells, but if it is said that he is really good at it and can stand out among many companions, there is really no one.

Even in Li Wei's opinion, his combat effectiveness may not be comparable to the weakest messenger among the archon seven models.

Because the courier who can use lightning sword energy and fly at high speed can use kite tactics to deal with enemies such as Nurgle Great Unclean, but Lord Huiwen can only bite the bullet and go up. shopping.

But in any case, he can be regarded as a legendary cavalryman. For Li Wei, the more such reinforcements, the better.

After saying hello, the Duke of Lucan, who had the best relationship with Li Wei, said without hesitation: "Li Wei, it's unfortunate that you came, the prince is meeting with the envoy of the Dragon God."

The dragon madness broke out ahead of time, causing heavy losses to the dragons and dragon descendants in the main world. Imrik, who often conquered and domesticated dragons, was soon conferred a god, and there happened to be a dragon in his priesthood.

Even outsiders like them can roughly imagine how much suspicion and resentment the two dragon gods have towards the elves and elves at this moment.

Li Wei, who is also Prince Caledor with Imrik, if he meets Bahamut's envoy at such a moment, there may be some conflicts.

Of course, Li Wei is also aware of this. In fact, since the dragon madness, his subordinate Alduin, who was born in the bronze dragon, has been seriously affected.

He has become a "former paladin".

Because of some of Bahamut's orders and Alduin's oath of all loyalty to Levi, there was a serious conflict.

However, this caused Li Wei to suffer from a small heart problem. For Alduin who had obviously weakened in strength, he increased his treatment and comforted him. It is not only the belief in Bahamut that can become a paladin.

The gods who symbolize kindness and justice in this world are not only the dragon god.

At the same time, this also made Li Wei realize very clearly that although Bahamut has not yet decided to start a war, his hostility to the elf pantheon is already very obvious.

After the battle of the decaying dragon god, Li Wei knew that the dragon god was indeed much stronger than ordinary gods at the same level.

Bahamut is a weak divine power, but it is entirely possible to treat him as a medium divine power.

So upon hearing this, Li Wei couldn't help but become a little more serious: "What does that dragon god want from the Gaidin Celestial Clan?"

"I heard that he wants to get some guards for his dragon vassals."

Li Wei frowned slightly: "Couldn't he want to expand the size of the Dragon's vassal?"

Dragon vassal is a special transfer of Bahamut, and it can basically be considered as a way for him to expand the size of his followers.

Because its job requirements are relatively loose, paladins, warriors, rangers, barbarians, etc. are all available.

Then the alignment is lawful good, worships Bahamut, and independently kills an evil dragon or drake.

Once the job transfer is successful, the dragon vassal will become a powerful warrior who can cast spells similar to a paladin. At the same time, he will be strengthened when fighting evil dragon creatures, and good dragon creatures will be more willing to help him.

Then there are the scales of the evil dragons killed by them. After praying, they will be blessed by Bahamut and become powerful dragon scale armor.

In addition, as the level of the dragon vassals increases, they will continue to receive personal rewards from Bahamut, that is, a large pile of gold coins, and each time it will definitely be more generous than the last time.

This last one is quite outrageous. Dragons are greedy for money. What is the reason for Bahamut, the god of dragons, not only does not require believers to worship, but is willing to take the initiative to share his treasures with him? of mortal believers?

That is of course because Bahamut can obtain greater benefits.

The descendants of the dragon vassals will all have dragon blood, and naturally have a strong will to believe in Bahamut.

In a sense, Bahamut is secretly transforming humans into dragonborn, and because the rewards of job transfer are really amazing, so there is no need for him to take the initiative to promote, there are a large number of outstanding fighters who will take the initiative to try to carry out the trial .

For Bahamut, some gold coins seem to be less important than the power of faith.

Based on his good reputation all the time, and the fact that he did not wantonly develop dragon vassals in the entire main world, and more importantly, his strength is indeed very strong, so most of the gods chose silence or patience.

Anyway, Bahamut is not just a sheep. He is a vassal of dragons who have been extensively developed in the entire main world. On average, the impact on each god is actually very small, so there is no need to really against him.

Duke Lucan nodded slightly: "That's right, he probably wants to quickly expand the scale by lowering the threshold and improving the treatment."

"Do you want to lower it?" Even the Crazy Horse Messenger, Lord Huiwin, couldn't bear it this time.

He also just came back from the outside, and was directly called by Duke Lucan to receive Li Wei, so it is not clear about this matter for the time being.

But now the job transfer requirements for dragon vassals are very loose, because there is no requirement for the strength of evil dragons or dragon beasts.

Theoretically, if you meet a Tier 2 mixed-breed dragon beast, or a Tier 3 young white dragon, as long as you kill the opponent, they can all be counted as eligible!
If it is lowered further, what is left?As long as you believe in Bahamut?
The Heir of the Wind also narrowed his eyes slightly. Usually, he would not maliciously speculate on other people, but this time Bahamut's behavior was indeed very suspicious.

The bloodline of the giant dragon almost occupies an overwhelming advantage in the inheritance. No matter what race the other party is, the descendants will basically show some characteristics of the giant dragon, as evidenced by the huge variety and large number of dragon beasts.

Lowering the threshold of dragon vassals at this critical moment can be said to help mortals better fight against evil, but why not take advantage of others?

Li Wei thought for a while: "I heard that something happened in the border kingdom two days ago."

"When the defenders of the city were about to run out of ammunition and food, the 'kind' Dragon God Church appeared in a 'timely' manner and delivered a large amount of food to the city so that the defenders could continue. Therefore, there were many mortals in the city I chose to convert."

Hearing the two words he emphasized, no matter whether he has heard of the existence of this matter or not, he can't help being silent for a while.

It depends on which angle you look at it from.

Thinking about it better, it was the Bahamut Church who was merciful and could not bear to starve to death for the defenders in the city, so they took the initiative to send food. The defenders were also grateful for this and decided to believe in Bahamut from now on. Both sides are good friends with high moral character people.

But on the worst side, why did the Church of Bahamut accurately pinpoint the time?If you really want to save the other party, why did you go early?
And there is a border kingdom, which can basically be regarded as a bandit kingdom. Both the attacker and the defender are all bad guys. Are they really worth saving?
Thinking further, with sufficient food, will the war continue, resulting in more casualties, and by the way, give Bahamut more opportunities to gain believers?
If this kind of thing happens once or twice, it may be a coincidence, but in recent years, they have happened too frequently, which makes people suspect the truth behind it.

And their suspicions are not groundless, because Bahamut has indeed had many bad deeds.

The most famous thing is that a long time ago, the giant dragon gods were still thriving, almost ruling the entire main world, and when there were no titles of good dragon god and evil dragon god, Bahamut once let the people who believed in him The giant dragons, dragon beasts, and dragon descendants of the world carried out genocidal massacres in his name.

Bahamut only became the god of good dragons after the rapid decline of the dragon gods.

Seeing the expressions of several high-ranking Celestial Clans, Li Wei knew that their thoughts were probably consistent with his own, which basically meant that he would also win some support among the current Gading Five Lords.

Before the Duke of Lucan left office, they all recommended their own successors of the same family. They still want to sell some face. Ideally, including the Duke of Lucan, they can get up to six approvers this time.

If they all open their mouths to question, then Bahamut's wish can basically be equated to come to nothing.

The Ethic Celestial Clan is basically the voice of the Queen of the Stars. When the Yakong Celestial Clan is facing important matters, they usually hold a meeting and discuss it with the seven heavenly masters.

On the Gading Celestial Clan's side, the lion-headed envoy Prince Talishid is the main decision-maker, but if any of Gadin's Five Lords disagrees during this process, the prince will definitely not act arbitrarily.

However, since I haven't even seen each other now, Li Wei doesn't need to say anything more, he just clicked:
"Okay, as long as we all know this matter clearly, it will be up to Prince Talishid to make the final decision."

"In any case, that person is still in the good camp, and the priesthood of lies is not on him."

It's okay if Li Wei didn't say anything, but when he thought of Cyric, the guy who lied and said he was driving himself crazy, Duke Lucan and others couldn't help but make more associations.

If it was just a simple disguise, Bahamut could not even disguise his own camp, because camp is the external manifestation of a series of things such as the mind and behavior of an existence, and no existence can pretend, not even Ciri. Ke couldn't do it either.

But what if Bahamut has some kind of special abilities and treasures, such as hypnosis or fantasy, so that even he himself thinks that he really did those things out of kindness and compassion? ?

Just like under the influence of the Cyric Sutra, Cyric really thinks that he is the only true god!

Although this guess is very unbelievable, it may be the best explanation for Bahamut's series of abnormal behaviors.

Due to the age, many things about the dragon god system are not so clear at the beginning, and the priesthood that Bahamut has shown to the outside world may not really be all about him.

Lord Huiwen couldn't help but said in a muffled voice immediately: "Even if the prince really agrees to the other party's conditions, I will definitely tell him all these things."

Although he has retired for hundreds of years now, based on his friendship and merit, Prince Talishid will definitely consider it if he speaks.

The Heir of the Wind and Duke Lucan looked at each other and nodded silently.

Things have come to this point, in fact, it has little to do with Li Wei.

Even if Bahamut has never had any more bad deeds since he became the god of good dragons, but the paper can't contain the fire after all. If everyone's speculation is true, he will show his feet sooner or later. They don't want to let The Gaidin Celestial Clan used their lives to serve a hypocrite.

What's more, there are many ways for their Gadin Celestial Clan to fight against evil. For example, those Gadin Celestial Clan stationed in Fear Rock or Skogi basically fight against evil every day, so why should they take risks to help Baja? What about Mutt?
With such a tacit understanding, they stopped talking, and just started to take Li Wei to visit Elysium.

Li Wei didn't refuse either, not to mention that he is just a newcomer to the legend, even if it is an existence like Lilith, if it really meets Bahamut, it will definitely not be too easy, there is no need to fight recklessly.

When Bahamut's envoy leaves, go see Prince Talishid by yourself.

Not to mention, the environment and scenery of Elysium is really good, so it also attracts many travelers from other good planes. Li Wei has at least met dozens of gods from more than a dozen different planes. believers and servants.

But their strength is uneven. Compared with the mortals in the main world, they must be a lot stronger, but they are not particularly outrageous. They are mainly concentrated between the 3rd and 5th ranks.

The proportion of beings above Tier 5 is already very low, and there is not even a single one at the Legendary level.

Despite this, Li Wei still took the opportunity to make some new friends, and he didn't really say that he wanted to get something from them now, but he had more friends, and maybe he would get some small surprises at some point in the future.

Even when possible, Li Wei will take the initiative to do something for the other party.

For example, Li Wei made friends with a Pandaren traveler named Zhou Zhuo. The other party claimed that he wanted to leave Cathay and travel to the Western world, but because he didn't have money to spend, he was currently trying to sell self-brewed wine to make money. profit.

After Li Wei heard about it, he generously bought several jars of green plum wine from the other party with 500 gold coins.

If you only look at business, Li Wei must be a super cheat. Those jars of wine are not worth that much, but does he care about the gold coins?

For another example, Li Wei met the family of the demigod - the swan fairy - Fei Erla, and had a good chat with him.

He also learned by the way that Corellon and Minglong-Yinyin of the Cathayan pantheon were trying to pull the swan fairy into his pantheon, which was considered an unexpected gain.

And so on, and so on, but after walking around for a long time, Duke Lucan went to the top of the Elysium several times, but in the end he returned disappointed, because Prince Talishid was still receiving Bahamut's envoy.

This made the successor of the wind and Lord Huiwen a little restless. Although when encountering major events, the prince generally would not directly agree to it, but would make a decision after discussing it with the five nobles of Gading, but they really Worried that the prince will be impulsive.

But Li Wei didn't take it seriously. Instead, he comforted the other party. It took a long time, which doesn't necessarily mean that the negotiation between the two sides went smoothly. Maybe it was because they couldn't reach an agreement in some key places, so they were entangled there?
To be honest, Li Wei felt that Gading Celestial Clan would attach so much importance to this agreement because they were too sincere.

If it was changed to the Love Assassin Heavenly Clan, even if they really agreed, so what?There are too many ways for them to do nothing, or simply screw things up.

Even so, after several more hours, Duke Lucan and the others couldn't bear it anymore. After apologizing to Li Wei, they went straight to the top of Elysium.

Li Wei didn't stop him either. He just squatted in front of a celestial halfling chef with a few dwarven ancestor heroic spirits and lightning element messengers from the wind element plane, waiting for the other party's upcoming sumptuous dinner.

Another half-magma giant is in charge of lighting the fire, and Elegy and the other girls are helping to clean vegetables and so on.

The whole day is either fighting or on the way to fighting, so let's take a holiday for myself, Elegy and others today.

I have to admit that the culinary skills of halflings are not bad, and this halfling from the heaven is even more outstanding.

Especially after getting the blessing of many high-grade ingredients that Li Wei just brought from the Assassins, the dinner was even more delicious, and even attracted an unexpected guest.

It was a young girl with green eyes and long hair, covered with green leaves and golden moss, and dressed in a green tulle gown. She ran over in surprise:
"Wow, what a sumptuous dinner, I brought a few bottles of fruit wine, can I join you?"

Her voice was clear and sweet, full of magnetism, and even faintly, there were countless birdsong echoing.

The messenger of the lightning element didn't say a word. Both the ancestor of the dwarves, the heroic spirit, and the halfling chef expressed their warm welcome, but they immediately said that they could not completely make the decision, because a large part of the ingredients for this dinner were provided by Li Wei. .

Of course, Li Wei would not refuse, it was just a meal, and he originally wanted to make more friends through this.

What's more, compared to the dwarven ancestors, he has a divinity and can perceive the essence of the other party more keenly.

Coupled with the unusual appearance of the other party, he quickly determined the identity of the other party.

It is likely to be the incarnation of Melikai, the goddess of the forest and rangers, with medium divine power from the natural pantheon.

This neutral and kind goddess has a profound background in the true sense. Her father is the powerful god of nature - Sivanus, Losander and other gods regard her as friends.

Lord of Firemane-Norban Nien, Goddess of Sheepman-Shialia and Human Ranger-Gueron Liufeng, these three demigods are her servant gods.

The Queen of Unicorns, Larue, has served as her mount in battles of the gods more than once.

As for her enemies, Malar is the main one, followed by Talos, and finally the goddess of poison and disease-Talona, ​​and Li Wei should have a lot in common.

After all, Li Wei has made enemies with Malar more than once. In addition, Malar has made plans against Sobek and Selket, so Li Wei has more reason to deal with each other.

But since the other party didn't reveal his identity, he naturally didn't want to do this, so Li Wei didn't say anything, but just enjoyed the food in front of him first.

Anyway, for the true god, the divinity of himself and Elegy and others is like a candle in the dark, and it is impossible to be ignored.

So until they finished eating, they didn't have any unnecessary communication with each other. The halfling chef started to clean up the table, bowls and pans, and several dwarf ancestor heroic spirits began to drink and talk about their past glorious achievements in the main world.

However, considering the dwarves' habit of bragging when they drink, these records must have been filled with water.

Melika's incarnation is like a real human spirit, and she also tells some stories of her own.

Elegy, Donna and the others couldn't help being infected, and they soon joined in. If it's more about telling stories, they really don't have to worry about having no material for them who followed Li Wei to fight all the way.

Just like that, after being lively for a long time, Mei Likai stood up suddenly, and said regretfully: "Sorry, I still have some things to deal with, I hope we will have a chance to meet in the future, your food is delicious, you guys The story is also very interesting.”

Although the halfling chef and the others had some regrets, they didn't care too much. They just sent each other off. After all, in Elysium, there are too many chances to meet by chance.

Only Li Wei heard more voices, and Mei Likai also sent an invitation to him in the name of the goddess. If he has the opportunity, he can visit the plane of the Temple of Nature in the God of Nature.

Li Wei naturally nodded, and he was looking forward to this invitation.

The natural pantheon is basically neutral good or lawful good, and it fits well with Li Wei's camp. The relationship between them and the elf pantheon has always been very good.

In addition, there is another point, Melika's father is the god of nature, so who is her mother?
This has always been an unsolved mystery, but there are rumors that the goddess of love and beauty in the elven pantheon - Ms. Jinxin, is very likely.

Given that it has spread so widely, related gods such as the God of Nature and Ms. Jinxin have never stepped forward to refute the rumors, which in itself can quite explain the problem.

If this is the case, it would be more understandable for Melika to show a little kindness to Levi.

After Melika left, Donna couldn't help sighing a little: "She is really beautiful, her youth and agility are really enviable."

Cindy also nodded hurriedly. Although the other party looked older than her, the feeling of youth surpassed hers.

But the dwarf ancestors beside him showed surprise: "Youth? Are you sure you are talking about that old human lady?"

The half-lava giant said in a loud voice: "Human? Isn't it a rock element?"

"What? Why does she look like a dwarf to me?"

"Nonsense, isn't it a mermaid?"

After a little argument, they looked at each other a few more times, and they all understood, yes, this is definitely some kind of special power exerted by the other party.

Hearing this, even Li Wei couldn't help being a little surprised. He, Donna and the others saw the same appearance, and they didn't feel any magical fluctuations at all. It should be said that they are real goddesses.

At this moment, there was a sound of flapping wings in the distance, and the successor of the wind with a happy face rushed over: "Li Wei, Prince Talishid is waiting for you!"
