Volume 2 Spread Wings Chapter 186 Lieutenant Lisa Dillon
Thanks to the entanglement of wind elements and giant eagles, Donna managed to kill several Iron Knights who served as scouts before the other side really rushed over, but despite this, the situation was not optimistic.
It's not just because, except for the Sky Eagle Archers, the damage caused by other ranged troops to the Iron Cavalry Demons is not high, making it very difficult for them to kill them, but also because the demon army in the distance has already discovered the movement here, and a war is about to break out.
Fortunately, the high elves had arrived by then, and dozens of Arion plunderers flew to Levi like the wind.
When he saw the witch Tiva beside Levi, the young elf with golden hair and silver armor was obviously stunned for a moment, and then he showed undisguised disgust, but he did not show any verbal impoliteness. He just introduced himself quickly.
"I am Lisa Dilan, a lieutenant from Ashridge Town. I wonder who this honorable wizard is?"
Although there were hundreds of people present, including heroes like Donna and elephant men like Bayoru, except for the witch Tiwa, it seemed that Levi was the only one in his eyes at this moment.
"I'm Sergeant Levi Goethe, just call me Levi. I'm about to head to Ashridge Town. I wonder if Captain Reiner of the Silver Helmets is still there?" he asked knowingly.
At the same time, he also noticed that Sam's reconnaissance was wrong again. Although there were indeed dozens of Elion raiders following the other side, there was a team of Elion cavalry and half a team of hooded female riders with more exquisite figures among them.
They were obviously not the Arion Plunderers, not only because their attire was completely different, but also because their longbows and arrows emitted a pure blue-white light!
Upon hearing what Levi said, Lisadiran's attitude became noticeably friendlier: "Lord Reiner is fighting the treacherous greenskins. Levi, are you his friend?"
treachery?
As soon as he heard these four words, Levi knew that the acting lord was most likely fooled by the greenskins. It was amazing that she could think of trying to make a ceasefire with the greenskins.
But now is not a good time to ask these questions, because the enemy is approaching rapidly, and he even saw a team of iron cavalry demons rising into the sky!
He shook his head gently: "No, we are not real friends yet, but Lord Reiner has indeed helped me a lot. So, Lisadiran, the demon in front of me..."
Lisa Dilan suddenly perked up: "This is exactly what I want to say, Levi, please lend me a hand to destroy the demon in front of me and avenge the innocent victims!"
Although he had expected this, Levi was still a little surprised when he heard this sentence and saw the system prompt that followed.
This guy is really brave. Now he is a little curious. If he is not here today, what will the other party do?
But no matter what, he took on the task as soon as possible, because what the other party wanted to do was exactly what he wanted!
"You have successfully received the mission - avenge the victims, kill as many demons as possible, and ensure that Risadilan and his troops survive. If Risadilan dies in battle, or his troops are wiped out, the mission rating will drop significantly."
“The current list of survivors is as follows:
Lieutenant Risadiran 1/1, Avalon Maiden Guard (Horse Archery) 6/6, Arion Cavalry 12/12, Arion Plunderer 36/36, Lothern Sea Guard 60/60."
Levi immediately raised his eyebrows. He had already made some guesses just now. Now it seems that this guy's origin is indeed not too ordinary.
Those uniquely-looking female horse archers are from the Kingdom of Avalon, one of the ten kingdoms of the High Elves.
Compared with other kingdoms, the status of the Kingdom of Avalon is quite special because its ruler is the Everqueen, one of the two kings of the High Elves.
The Phoenix King of the High Elves may come from a different kingdom, but the Everqueen can only come from the Kingdom of Avalon.
In addition, the special military forces there are slightly different from those in other kingdoms, and can be mainly divided into two categories.
The first type is several rare female soldiers starting with Avalon. Their common feature is that they can attack at both long and short range, and all their weapons are enchanted, even longbows and arrows. Of course, as a price, their recruitment and maintenance costs are very expensive, and the recruitment requirements are also very high.
The second type is the many tree people. It is said that this is because the Everqueen has a very good relationship with the tree people and wood elves, so she can also recruit their troops.
Now those Avalon Girl Guards are at least rare Tier 4 soldiers. To be able to lead them, Lisadilan must be stronger, right?
Seeing Levi agreed, Lisadiran was overjoyed: "Okay, Levi, you really are worthy of being Lord Reiner's friend. It just so happens that I just got a treasure. In addition to military merit points, if we can survive after this battle, I must give it to you!"
Without waiting for Levi's response, he galloped away with many horse archers, heading straight for the attacking Iron Cavalry Demons, leaving only one sentence in the wind: "Levi, I will go and disperse the demons' forces. I will leave the rest of my troops to you for the time being!"
Before he finished speaking, an Arion cavalryman and several shield-bearing Lothern marine guards stepped out of the crowd and looked directly at Levi: "Sir, please give the order!"
Apparently, this wasn't the first time they had encountered something like this.
Levi was not polite. In fact, this was exactly what he needed. Although he was a little surprised by the other party's cooperation, his confidence in winning the battle increased a bit.
So he directly put all the Arion cavalry under Simon's temporary command, and then divided the rest into two teams. One team was arranged behind Zhou Miyin and others , and the other team was placed next to Donna and the Sky Eagle archers. If the Iron Cavalry Demons were really smart enough to know how to raid Donna, then it would be time for them to fight to the death.
Then he cast several anti-camp magic circles. This time was different from the previous ones. The enemy had powerful flying troops, and he had to make sure that everyone was covered by magic.
But when he turned around again, Levi found that the demons arrived a little later than him, and even the iron cavalry demons had changed direction. He understood instantly.
Even though he was calm, he couldn't help but complain in his heart: Brother, are you really so reckless?
You said you wanted to lure away the monsters, but you just lured away the strongest Iron Cavalry Demons?
Although this does bring great convenience to your side, your chances of dying in battle will also increase significantly!
But he didn't have the energy to care about that guy, because accompanied by a burst of dog barking, dozens of Flame Hellhounds and Hellhounds came running over first.
Donna let out a delicate cry, and hundreds of arrows flew over at once. However, the result this time was not particularly ideal. Although many people were injured, not many were actually killed in the battle.
Except for some arrows enchanted with ice by the Ice Archers, even the sharp arrows shot by the Sky Eagle Archers could not bring a particularly strong deterrent to the opponent, because the most common Hellhounds were all level 3 soldiers and their defense was there.
What's more crucial is that they seem to have been cast with some kind of acceleration magic, making it difficult for shooters to hit them all. Not everyone is good at shooting at high-speed moving targets, and even if they can estimate it in advance, the actual hit rate is difficult to guarantee.
Looking at the two mysterious black-robed demons in the distance, who were protected by many demons like the moon surrounded by stars, how could Levi not understand? They must be the ones causing the trouble!
Fortunately, he is not without a way to deal with it this time, Stinky Cloud Technique, go away!
As he cast the spell, a large gray-yellow cloud appeared out of nowhere in the path where the hellhounds were charging.
Although they look like bad guys, they won't stop so quickly while running at high speed. Moreover, they are confident in their strength, so there is no need to be too afraid of them. After all, as demons, they have a certain resistance to most magic.
So almost in the blink of an eye, dozens of hellhounds went straight through the stinking cloud spell. The speed was so fast that Levi was caught off guard. He had been thinking that he would need two more stinking cloud spells to cover all the hellhounds, but who knew that the other party would be so eager to die?
Even in the process of passing through the Stinking Cloud Technique, several Flame-Breath Hellhounds spewed flames at it with disdain.
Then in a few seconds, all the hellhounds regretted it.
Along with a series of slight explosions, the coverage of the Stink Cloud Technique expanded several times out of thin air, and all the hellhounds, whether they were level 3 or level 4, whether they were within the Stink Cloud Technique or had already rushed out of its range, began to dry heave frantically, some even vomited so much that their entire bodies began to twitch.
Levi smiled immediately. As expected, unless the enemy is dead, or is a creature like the horned demons and murlocs who are used to the stench, this magic is really the nemesis of most enemies with a sense of smell. And the sharper the sense of smell, the greater the suffering one will suffer.
Of course, Donna would not waste this opportunity. With another shout, a rain of arrows fell directly on the hellhounds. The results of this battle were obviously several times higher than before.
However, Levi did not relax, but added another Stinky Cloud Spell, because he felt that the battle was still not optimistic, the number of enemies was still several times that of his own, and not all enemies would be affected by this magic.
The most obvious ones are the Iron Cavalry Demons and Original Demons who have some undead characteristics. They don’t even care about the maggots in their own wounds, so would they care about the stench of the Stink Cloud Technique?
On the contrary, looking at the hellhounds that were vomiting violently and seemed to be unaware of the arrows falling on them, and even smiled with relief when they were killed, the witch Tiwa next to them felt a chill all over her body, because she recognized this famous magic.
She was also very glad that Levi did not use this magic when she fought with him before, otherwise she really didn't know whether she would become like that, because the werewolf's sense of smell is also very sharp!
But no matter what she thought, Levi's movements would not be hindered, and similarly, the rain of arrows never stopped.
So when the slower Horned Demon Warlords drove many low-level demons into the battlefield, they were all very surprised to find that there were only a few of those powerful hellhounds left!
The demons were suddenly slightly agitated. Although they were extremely warlike, they were not fools. They were able to kill almost all the hellhounds so quickly. The enemy's strength was obviously stronger than they had previously estimated.
But accompanied by an extremely slight buzzing sound, similar to the flapping of flies' wings, flaming halos appeared around the bodies of the Horned Demon Warlords. They waved their whips and began to drive all the low-level demons to continue advancing.
But of course Donna would not let them get close so easily. Arrows rained down like rain, and more than one demon was killed almost every second.
It's okay for other demons, but when those original demons die in battle, they are often like balloons that have been punctured. With a dull bang, their entire bodies explode, soaking the heads and faces of other demons around them.
And everyone can see clearly that even the demons are obviously disgusted and disgusted by this, but they have no choice but to avoid it.
Not only because there were densely packed demons all around, but also because the original demons were the weakest and had the largest number, so they were often the first to die under the rain of arrows, and they died the most...
Levi couldn't help but grin when watching this scene. It was really too strong. Fortunately, the demons didn't seem to feed on flesh and blood, so there were often no messy things in their bodies, otherwise it might be even more disgusting.
At the same time, he snorted secretly. Although he was still wrapped in a black robe, such an obvious sound had exposed their true identity. They must be fly demons. It was just not clear for the time being whether they were ordinary soldiers or heroic units.
Then he had an idea. If these original demons all possessed some undead characteristics, then did they also have the fire resistance that most demons possessed?
Thinking of this, he threw over a secondary fire bead.
Then he was very pleasantly surprised to find that this low-level magic almost inflicted full damage. The opponent really had no resistance to fire. In this case, his micro meteors would come in handy again!
He intended to continue using the Stinking Cloud Technique to delay the enemy's arrival at the quicksand trap as much as possible, and then use micro meteors to focus on attacking the group of original demons, but after thinking about it, he finally gave up.
Because it was too close to their side, if the weather suddenly changed, or if those demons were doing evil and expanded the coverage of the stinking cloud spell, their melee troops might be in trouble. After all, apart from the acceleration spell, he didn't know what other magic the two fly demons could use.
So he wanted to wait a while, until the opponent's Gog, Magog and fly demon came into the range of magic, and then use this trick to test the opponent.
But before he could make any move, he suddenly felt a surge of magic around him, and then two closely adjacent inverted pentagram magic arrays with a diameter of several meters quickly appeared in front of him, and two blurry black shadows jumped directly towards him!
The witch Tiwa next to her screamed suddenly, not only because the incident happened suddenly, but also because the maximum range of summoning magic is often much closer than ordinary magic. Isn't the release distance of the opponent a bit too far?
But Levi was not in a hurry. While driving the glazed jade lion to move to the side, he calmly cast magic.
Since he already knew about the opponent's fly demon, how could he not be on guard against it?
Less than a second later, an ice-blue magic circle quickly expanded outward with him as the center, directly affecting the two black shadows.
Almost visible to the naked eye, the speed of the black shadows dropped by more than 10%, allowing everyone to see their true faces clearly. They were the shadow-escaping demons that specialized in assassination among the middle and low-level demons!
Then he waved his hand again, and a long sword flashing with cold light flew into the air. Then a thorny vine like a giant python broke out of the ground and blocked him in front of him.
At this time, Guang Yakong and the Wolf Patrol, who were serving as guards beside them, also rushed forward with roars, while the elephant man Bayoru, holding a large shield and a battle axe, stood in front of Levi like an iron tower, his face full of vigilance, because compared to killing the enemy, guarding Levi was his truly important task.
At the same time, the witch Tiwa first released protective stone skin to Guang Yakong and others, and then set up several quicksand traps in front and behind her. Then she turned her gaze to Levi, her brows full of concern.
But Levi was not that nervous, because the Shadow Demon was not good at head-on combat. If there was enough time, it was not impossible for the Wolf Patrol with full buffs to kill these two guys alone.
But now, he is not going to give the other party this time, because he has a hunch that if the fly demon does not move, it will be fine, but once it moves, it will definitely not be over so quickly!
With a raise of his hand, four magic missiles the size of ping-pong balls flew straight over. Although the target Shadow Fiend tried to dodge, the magic missiles followed and moved with it, and finally all hit the opponent solidly.
Several damage values burst out, and the Shadow Demon's already slightly thin body became even weaker, because nearly 80% of its health was directly knocked away.
Guang Yakong immediately shouted angrily and launched a righteous attack. As he swung his sword, white light flashed continuously. It was obvious that he wanted to kill the enemy as quickly as possible. He also knew that as long as his attack hit the target, even if the enemy managed to survive, he would only have one breath left at most and would die afterwards!
But Levi didn't even look at it. After he finished casting the spell, he immediately shifted his target. His eyes widened, and instantly they were filled with platinum-colored light. Then they turned into rays, and four of them hit the body of another Shadow Demon.
But this time is different from just now. The purpose is not to kill the enemy, but to mark the enemy's position with sacred rays.
The Shadow Demon was good at lurking in the shadows. If it missed its attack, it could often escape and then wait for the right opportunity to attack again. But now it was impossible for it to do that.
The Wolf Patrol suddenly roared excitedly, completely ignoring the opponent's dagger, and swung his claws violently, cutting deep wounds on the opponent's body. He wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to kill the opponent in the shortest time possible!
The nearest few Lothern marine guards also stopped shooting and raised their spears and shields and surrounded them together.
Seeing them acting so independently, Levi raised his eyebrows, but did not stop them.
Although the other party was temporarily under his command, they were not his subordinates after all. Moreover, their actions would have no impact on the war. Instead, it would help to eliminate these assassins as soon as possible, so he didn't bother to pay attention to them.
"Levi, the other party is speeding up!"
"Yeah, I get it, Tiwa."
Turning around again, Levi found that the speed of all the Horned Demon Generals and Horned Demons had increased to varying degrees. It was obvious that the other party wanted to take the opportunity to let the strongest ones present break the formation first.
Moreover, Levi was not quite sure whether the power of the charge of these accelerated horned demons would become stronger as a result?
Unfortunately, it has been tried in many battles before, no matter whether it is the Spider Web Technique, the Grease Technique, or the Stinking Cloud Technique, they have little effect on these guys. Although their attack and defense are not outstanding, and they have almost no skills, their magic resistance is unexpectedly good.
Fortunately, he and the witch Tiwa had just made some preparations. For most land creatures, quicksand traps were always effective, so he didn't need to worry too much for the time being.
While thinking this, Levi casually added a few quicksand traps. He then turned his attention to the fly demons, gogs and magogs in the distance. They were almost within the archers' shooting range.
Then he found that the other party had actually stopped, and the two fly demons were casting a kind of magic that was familiar to him, but was a little difficult to deal with at the moment, which was the protective arrows!
He immediately gritted his teeth. With this magic, except for the Sky Eagle Archers, the damage caused by the attacks of the Half-elf Sharpshooters, the High Elf Archers, and the Lothern Ocean Guards would be reduced by several times!
And if there is no way to kill the opponents quickly or significantly reduce their number, once dozens of fireballs are thrown at them at the same time, both himself and Donna may be killed instantly.
But at this distance, except for the micro-meteor, all his other magics could not reach the opponent!
Am I going to retreat here?
But suddenly, Levi noticed that there didn't seem to be many demons guarding the fly demon. Almost all the demons were like bloodthirsty locusts, rushing towards them like crazy. He suddenly had a vague idea.
He immediately issued a series of orders quickly.
"Yakong and the Gaiding Celestial Clan will start from the west and move forward along the woods. Be careful to hide and look for opportunities to ambush the two black-robed fly demons. Well, I will send Xiaoqi to assist you."
It's rude not to reciprocate, and let your enemy experience the feeling of being bullied by the summoned creature!
"Simon, take the Elion cavalry, a few big cats, and my other summons and go around from the east. Try to attract the attention of some demons and give the patrol wolves a chance to launch a surprise attack!"
"Julia, you take the horse thieves with you to assist and always be alert to the traces of those iron cavalry demons."
"The main purpose of this battle is to disrupt Magog's attack, and secondly to kill the fly demons. In addition, everyone should pay attention. If Lisadilan's plan fails and the Iron Cavalry Demons really return, everyone should immediately abandon the plan and retreat directly. Don't take any risks!"
At once, everyone responded and set off immediately.
Although they almost all had no idea what was happening in the distance, when they saw Levi being so cautious, they knew that this mission was not only extremely dangerous, but must also be of great importance!
Seeing the people accepting the mission without hesitation and setting off immediately, the witch Tiwa became more and more envious. The jackals she led had never had such smart brains.
Even though it was just a simple reconnaissance mission, and even though she had repeatedly reminded them, there were still some guys who would run off halfway through the reconnaissance, or even simply disappear without a trace and never show up again. It was unknown whether they had escaped or simply died outside.
But Levi's subordinates all trusted him so much, and this kind of trust obviously could not be cultivated in a short time. They must have experienced countless battles and victories together.
Perhaps, joining his team would be a good choice...
