Volume 2 Spread Wings Chapter 131: The End of Chen Zhui
Although her face had messy magical lines, her body was completely different from other gnolls in that it was clean and tidy, and her facial lines were softer, without the ferocity of ordinary gnolls. At the same time, the two large gold earrings used as decorations and the obvious rise and fall of her chest also revealed her gender.
This was also the first female gnoll Levi had ever seen. Ordinary gnolls were dirty and smelly beasts, and their specific gender could not be distinguished at all.
But what alerted Levi the most was not only that she was dressed very human-like, but also that when she walked, she was holding a magic book in her hand, which was faintly visible under her robe!
Levi and Donna looked at each other and roughly understood each other's thoughts. Being able to command so many werewolves and having such unique attire, she was most likely a werewolf hero unit, and a magical witch at that!
The reason why she is called a witch rather than a wizard is because the werewolf race has no orthodox magical heritage, and the same goes for the orc shamans.
Currently, the only people who have a truly systematic magic inheritance and even magic academies are humans, high elves, dark elves, etc.
Of course, their race's overall strength is also the strongest. Many weaker races are busy trying to survive all day, not knowing whether there will be a tomorrow. Naturally, they have no mood or ability to organize systematic magic.
Some exceptions may be demons. They don't have academies, but they also have various magics. However, these magics are not acquired through learning, but are often the power lurking in their blood. When they reach a certain level of strength, they will naturally be able to use them, similar to warlocks whose power is deeply buried in their blood.
There are also spells that are not spellcasting, but are called spell-like because their effects are like spells, and their nature may come from any source, just like other extraordinary or supernatural abilities.
For example, birds are born to fly, high-level magicians can perform the art of flight, and creatures like dragons can fly even without flapping their wings, relying on wings that are not coordinated with their bodies. However, the principles of flight for the three are different.
Even many monsters have no , only instincts, and cannot learn any magic, but they are born with certain magical abilities. The same is true.
Moreover, her strength as a witch is definitely not too bad, because both humans and high elves, without exception, have maintained various powerful blockades against these alien races. Under normal circumstances, it is almost impossible for them to obtain this kind of magic book. It is either pure luck, or relying on strength or other opportunities.
As for the werewolf tamer, Levi also had some vague guesses. The two werewolf chosen heroes who were killed by him before kept saying that their boss would avenge them.
It was just because they seemed to have lost their minds at the time and took the initiative to expose all kinds of information about the other party, which made Levi a little undecided.
Any normal person would not be so stupid. Those two guys might be trying to trick each other. They probably have a grudge against each other.
Now looking at the two special types of soldiers surrounding the opponent, he thought that the opponent should be that guy.
As the distance between the two sides continued to shorten and they were about to enter the range of long-range units, the jackals did not rush forward, but slowly slowed down, as if they were adjusting their formation. Especially the two guys with special appearances, they filled the front with troops, appearing to be very cautious.
This also made Levi even more alert. The other side clearly had an absolute advantage in numbers, but their leader was no fool. He did not rely on his superior forces to attack in one wave, but tried to advance steadily. This made it even more difficult to deal with.
You have to know that because he and the Gnolls of Stoney Highlands are mortal enemies, ordinary Gnoll patrols won't think so much. As soon as they see him, they will rush up like crazy, and even when the situation is completely unfavorable, few of them will run away.
But now, although these jackals still looked at him with red eyes, they were able to suppress the anger and impulse in their hearts. This was not easy, and it made him more certain of the other party's identity as a hero.
But where is the so-called Yenogu fang hidden?
Quietly signaling to Donna to prepare for sniping with long-range units, Levi took the initiative and tore open a magic scroll of communication, which could increase the volume of his voice for a short period of time so that enemies farther away could hear his voice.
"Are you the last Chen Cone?"
The two special werewolves in the middle were both stunned. The witch looked at the tamer, then raised her hand and used a communication spell, motioning him to answer first to see what the other party had to say.
The animal trainer shrugged. "Yes, I am. I just didn't expect that the famous Levi would have heard of my name. I have always stayed in the Rocky Highlands and have never been out."
"Oh, wait..."
Chen Zhui suddenly realized: "I guessed it. It was you who attacked those two guys, and more than once?"
"Haha, Lord Diva, he has brought me a lot of luck. If it weren't for this high elf, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to become the strongest God-chosen hero in the Stone Highlands so quickly, even though there are only three of us."
At the end of the world, Chen Zhui explained to the female werewolf in a very servile manner, but she just snorted coldly and didn't give him any face.
"Please call me Witch!"
"Yes, yes, Master Witch."
"I see. It looks like you should be thanking me."
Levi also solved a puzzle. No wonder this guy's strength seemed quite good. Even if he was still far inferior to himself, he was still much stronger than ordinary players. At least the Lightcaster next to him probably couldn't do anything to him.
He was the first to discover the half-elf village Greenblade Village, and benefited greatly from it. After defeating the other two competitors, this guy was able to almost monopolize the Stoney Highlands.
Although compared to the high elves, the gnolls entrenched here are undoubtedly a very small force. Apart from the sufficient military force, other resources are probably very pitiful. However, the high elves' chosen heroes can only access some novice villages at present. Overall, there is not much difference in what both sides can obtain.
Based on this inference, similar situations may occur in other rare races or those disliked by most people. Those who can persevere in the end will often receive considerable rewards.
Chen Zhui of the Last World laughed very proudly: "Haha, that's right, but I don't plan to repay you. Who makes us in a hostile state? Right, Master Witch?"
The gnoll witch Diva nodded with satisfaction: "That's right, now that we have finished talking nonsense, let's start the battle!"
Having said this, the witch Tiwa took out her spell book, wiped it a few times with great care, and then seemed ready to start casting magic.
But with just this slight delay, Levi had already shouted, "Donna!"
Donna didn't hesitate at all, and shouted directly: "Shoot!"
Dozens of half-elves responded at the same time. As they moved, dense arrows cut through the air, causing a series of whistling sounds.
Chen Zhui was just about to laugh at them. They had already calculated the distance and would definitely not be attacked if they stood there. What's more, the other party had not even aimed at them, but was shooting up into the sky. The arrow must have gone astray.
But the witch Tiwa was suddenly startled. She originally thought that the opponents were just some heroes chosen by God and she could easily kill them, but now she regretted being too arrogant.
The enemy was not shooting randomly at all, this was clearly a projectile. Regardless of whether it was the skills of these soldiers themselves or the enemy's combat skills, it meant that he was not safe at the moment!
And there were several more gunshots that followed, which made her shudder, because that was one of the powers that many human countries used to crush weak alien races: steel and gunpowder!
Without caring about her manners at all, she immediately cast two defensive spells for herself without wasting extra magic.
"Mage armor!" "Stoneskin!"
As she moved, first a layer of mage armor that Levi was very familiar with appeared, and then a layer of gray-white light quickly spread around her body, making her look like a stone statue.
Although it didn't look good, it was undoubtedly very practical in the face of incoming arrows, because except for Donna and a few crane gunners, even the third-level half-elf archers couldn't break through the defense.
Even the strongest Donna, who used arrows strengthened by Levi's Burning Arrow Technique, could only create single-digit attacks with each arrow. One can imagine how strong the opponent's defense was.
Donna immediately realized that she had lost the best opportunity to snipe the enemy. Now that her equipment was seriously outdated, she had no way to deal with the enemy whose defense was too strong.
She acted decisively and changed her target directly, leading all the archers to attack the Wolf Man's ranged forces, especially those Lizardmen who seemed to be experts in archery, and those Wolf Man javelin throwers with extraordinary combat power, and more importantly, the guy in the very middle, who was suspected to be the hero chosen by God.
Now it was the turn of Chen Zhui, the Last Days Demon, to scream. Although he was well-equipped and of a good level, he was seriously injured on the spot. The witch Tiwa did not help him cast any defensive magic. He could only crawl backwards while constantly pouring life potions into his mouth.
But his subordinates were not so lucky. Facing Donna's accurate shooting, there were casualties almost every second. If this continued, in ten seconds or so, the special troops he had accumulated with great difficulty would probably be wiped out in this battle.
Donna launched a saturation attack in order not to give the opponent a chance to recover.
She had also heard from the two chosen heroes of the Werewolf before that the opponent's subordinates could restore their health by eating corpses, and if they were not killed in one wave, the opponent would most likely make a comeback.
Even though it was just a false alarm, the witch Tiwa broke out in a cold sweat, because she immediately realized that the female shooter who looked like an Amazon might also be a real hero!
"Attack, attack!"
While shouting a little anxiously, she continued to cast spells. Soon, almost all the dragon flies turned grayish white. Dozens of large dragonflies swooped towards Levi with noisy flapping sounds.
This witch Diva was so extravagant that she cast auxiliary magic for dozens of dragon flies, and her casting speed was astonishingly fast.
Levi immediately knew that this guy was most likely a hero unit with many magical expertise or special equipment, which consumed less energy when casting this magic. Otherwise, no wizard would use up so much magic at the beginning of a battle.
As a defensive BUFF, Stoneskin is more effective than Treeskin and does not have the disadvantage of reducing fire resistance, but it also consumes more magic, not to mention that it is released so many times in succession!
He immediately asked: "Lightforger, can your talent be effective on a heroic unit?"
The Lightforger felt a little bitter when he heard this: "Levi, you have too high expectations of me. That was just a random reward I received. Not only can it only be effective against 4th-level soldiers at most, but it can only be effective against the enemy's natural defense or equipment-added defense. It has no effect on magic!"
Levi couldn't help but frown. If that was the case, then the opponent was really a tough nut to crack. With the casting speed and frequency shown by the opponent, she could basically keep the protective stone skin on her body throughout the whole process. In this case, perhaps he could only kill the opponent's troops first, and then try to kill her herself!
At this time, the surrounding coyotes, hyenas, and jackals, which were quite numerous and varied, also roared and officially launched the attack.
But after such an attack, except for about forty or fifty gnolls who were still tightly protecting Doomsday Chen Zhui and Witch Tiwa, the other gnolls could no longer maintain their original formation.
Their speeds are different, and once they really start moving, they will quickly become separated from the main force and become a group of loose sand again.
Seeing this, Levi did not hesitate to use magic. He used Spider Web and Grease spells one after another and threw them at the stronger werewolves. He did not seek to kill the enemy, but only to further divide the enemy, and the effect he achieved was really good.
According to his current strength, it is almost impossible for low-level gnolls to avoid being hit. Even those level 3 gnoll hunting masters will occasionally be affected by some unlucky ones.
This resulted in the fact that although the number of jackals was large, the number of enemies that Zhou Miyin and many Yu Yong had to face at the same time was actually not too exaggerated.
As for those coyotes and hyenas that only know how to howl, although there are many of them and they are very fast, they are actually the ones that we don't need to worry about the most. Because once the Jade Brave Halberd Soldiers stand still and their racial talents take effect, coupled with the benefits of Guang Yakong's Anti-Evil Ring and other enhancements, they will not be able to break through the defense at all!
And he gradually discovered that although he was almost certain that the other party was an indigenous hero, these werewolves did not seem to have any bonus to the battle attributes. However, this was normal because their numbers were too large and far exceeded her leadership.
Apart from the dozens that still remain with the opponent, the other gnolls, lizardmen, coyotes, and even giant dragonflies should not have much bonus.
The Lightforged also shouted and pushed some of the short-range troops to the left and right of the Jade Warriors. Then, together with Arthur, the foot knight who was also full of buffs, they stood on the left and right near the long-range troops like door gods, ready to resist the attacking dragon flies and many vicious dragonflies.
As a priest who can fight, resist and heal, he is not really afraid of the enemy's targeted sniping, especially under the attack of Donna and others, the number of enemy long-range troops is rapidly decreasing, so he is even less afraid.
Although there was a witch who looked quite powerful among the gnolls, he was still somewhat confident as the two sides were so far apart, because ordinary low-level magic could rarely directly attack targets more than a hundred meters away.
After casting a series of spider web spells, Levi discovered that the big dragonflies were late in arriving. For some reason, he always felt that the speed shown by the other party did not match the information published on the forum, and was a little slower.
Are they deliberately maintaining their formation, or are they actually affected by magical effects?
Witch Tiva released it so quickly just now, I guess this is also one of the prices?
But no matter what, they were an extremely agile flying unit after all. When the half-elves had just fired the third round of arrows since the start of the war, they finally swooped down from mid-air.
Seeing this, Janet hurriedly led the bees to meet them. Although the bees did not have an advantage in terms of numbers or average strength, she could not just watch them harass the long-range troops.
Of course, she couldn't really take off completely, and still had to rely on the cover of friendly forces in the rear, otherwise she would be seeking death. However, she was not unprepared!
"Burning hands!" "Burning hands!" "Burning hands!"
She did not hesitate to use magic to replenish the usage time, and the effect was also outstanding. More than a dozen relatively weak or unlucky dragonflies turned into charred corpses and fell to the ground.
The giant dragonflies suddenly became panicked. Even though they were magical creatures and some of them could use the power of fire, the fear of fire was still deeply rooted in their blood.
Seeing this, Janet quickly led the bees, who had already used blowguns several times, to retreat and reunite with the main force. Although the enemy had been weakened, it was still not something the bees could handle. They had to take advantage and run away.
The witch Tiwa, who had just calmed down and added several buffs to herself in the distance, couldn't help but become more surprised when she saw this. Bee people were not particularly rare, but it was the first time she had seen one that could use fire magic, even a very low-level burning hand!
However, the distance was so far that she couldn't give orders even if she wanted to. But they were just cannon fodder anyway, and it would be a success if she could interfere with the enemy's long-range troops. The next step was to save her own life while slowly relying on the advantage in troop strength to crush the enemy.
After all, their long-range troops suffered heavy losses at the beginning of the war and were still decreasing rapidly. It was only a matter of time before they were killed.
Unless she used those big dragonflies to block the rain of arrows falling from the sky, she would inevitably fall into a passive position. There was no other way, because the opponent's ranged units not only had a very long range, but could also launch projectiles.
Thinking of this, the witch Diva released several "quicksand traps" around herself to ensure that she would not be attacked by surprise. Then she shouted to the Doomsday Chen Zhui next to her: "Don't you know that guy? Why are you still in such a mess? What is his weakness?"
Chen Zhui of the End of the World was speechless for a moment. He knew that the opponent was very strong and could summon elements and had a very cool big goose. As for other weaknesses, where could he find out?
At the same time, being questioned like this, he couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart. I originally thought that with your heroic unit following us and with our absolute advantage in military strength, we would be able to crush the opponent easily.
But now it seems that things may not develop as he expected, and even if he wins in the end, apart from the experience points, what he gets cannot make up for the loss this time!
As both sides continued to cast spells, he gradually became suspicious. Why do you only have a stone skin to protect your body, while the other party has so many other spells?
Who is the indigenous hero and who is the hero chosen by God on both sides?
But of course he wouldn't be stupid enough to say it out loud now, not only did he need something from her, he was also very interested in her because she was the second hero unit among all the gnolls in Stoney Highlands besides Hogg!
So he changed the subject directly: "Mrs. Witch, let's solve the problem of spider webs and oil first. Their existence has greatly affected the operations of our troops."
The witch Diva was indeed diverted from the topic. She said helplessly and jealously, "Do you think I don't want to? If I can do it, how can I just watch them die?"
"But I'm just a witch, not a real wizard. I don't know much magic, not to mention that I specialize in earth magic!"
Among the four major magic types of earth, fire, water and wind, the power of the earth element is not weak, but both the attack speed and attack distance are not ideal. Now that she knows that the other party has a group of good shooters, there is no need for her to take the risk and move forward. Who knows if the other party has any hidden tricks?
"Or, I can spend some effort to make you an eternal torch using fire crystals, and then you can send someone or go and set fire to all those spider webs yourself?"
Although she has no knowledge of this magic, she is very familiar with spider web magic. Its biggest weakness is fire. Whether it is magical fire or ordinary fire, it can easily destroy them.
Chen Zhui shrank his neck and stopped talking. Since he had already determined that no matter whether he won or lost this battle, he would not be able to make up for his losses, why should he continue to waste his energy?
Anyway, these guys are all subordinates assigned by Hogg to this stinky witch. It doesn’t matter even if they all die. I just need to protect the remaining subordinates!
As soon as she saw the appearance of Chen Zhui, the last man in the world, the witch Diva immediately understood what he was thinking. Although they had been in contact for quite a long time, she felt that she had seen through the three God-chosen heroes of the Stoney Highlands.
When there are benefits, they rush in faster than the other, but when there are no benefits, or when the danger is too great, they become more cowardly than the other.
It even made her doubt whether they were still brave gnolls. They were all from the chaotic evil camp, so how come they were often more rational than herself who was chaotic neutral?
Perhaps, this is the nature of God’s chosen heroes?
So she stopped urging him and just snorted coldly: "Since you don't want to, then go to the back to guard the prisoners. We suffered heavy casualties in order to capture those guys this time. It's better to take them there as soon as possible."
Then she muttered quietly, "Really? I don't know why Hogg was so nice to that stinking guy. He even let me, a heroic unit, capture him. Even for a jackal, he stinks a little too much. He looks like a real corpse."
"And what does that guy want to do with these captives? I ate them when I was a child, and the memory is too unforgettable for me. The meat of the goblins is smelly and sour, and the meat of the greenskins is not tasty at all. It's like chewing wood..."
Although the witch Tiwa showed some contempt, Chen Zhui of the Last Days no longer cared. After all, it was not the first time that he was despised by the other party. What mattered to him more was that he finally didn't have to fight the other side head-on!
"Yes, Master Witch , I'll go right away!"
