Volume 2 Spread Wings Chapter 213 Village Strategy
As the spell took a little while to cast, several meteors flew over with tails of flame. When they actually touched the target, their small bodies brought great momentum, and the huge impact force even made the sentry tower tremble.
But when looking at the damage numbers that appeared, Levi couldn't help but frown slightly.
Even with the support of his many equipment and expertise, the damage caused was not that high. These sentry towers had strong physical defense and magic resistance, especially fire resistance, which meant that only about one third of the fire damage from the micrometeors could be exerted.
Although he has the advantage in range, if he relies solely on this trick, it is unknown how long it will take to demolish all the opponent's sentry towers. After all, any building starts with a few hundred points of health (durability).
Fortunately, the Reaper crossbow immediately showed its power, dealing nearly a hundred points of damage with one shot. Then hundreds of arrows flew over the fence and directly killed more than a dozen low-level demons.
But there were too many demons. In just two seconds, the tiny space was quickly filled by other demons.
Gog and Magog on the watchtower angrily tried to launch a counterattack, but due to insufficient range, their attacks could only land on the open space about ten meters in front of him.
Levi laughed deliberately. He shot down all the micrometeors in one breath and caused a lot of damage to the sentry tower.
After this happened several times, two of the sentry towers began to crack all over. With a violent shaking, the entire sentry tower collapsed to the ground, and the Gogs who were originally on top of them also fell to the ground and could not get up for a long time.
At the same time, Donna and her team successfully killed more than a hundred enemies. Seeing this, Anaconda and other Amazons wanted to learn, but without the projectile skills, they simply could not do it while ensuring their own safety. After realizing this problem, they looked at Donna with more eager eyes.
After releasing several micrometeors in succession, Levi thought for a while, raised his hand and summoned a large fire element, then signaled it to actively step into the demons' attack range.
The Gogs, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately roared excitedly and threw dozens of fireballs at the same time.
But after a series of minor explosions, when the smoke cleared, they were very surprised to find that the enemy was almost unharmed!
After seeing this scene, Levi immediately laughed. It seemed that the large fire element was really the natural nemesis of these enemies. The fireballs of Gog and his men were almost completely ineffective against it, but its flaming attacks were not something that the demons could ignore.
Then he stopped using micro-meteors and summoned several fire elements in succession, deliberately sending them over to provoke.
In this situation, they did not rush out to attack, which is not like the character of the demons. The only explanation is that there is an extremely intelligent leader among them.
As for this kind of demon, we naturally have to attack its heart first!
Sure enough, this provocation did not last for two minutes before the demons could no longer bear it, and with an angry scream, the demons began to move, and then a very typical female demon with goat horns on her head, hooves on her feet, and a red body appeared behind the fence at the entrance of the village.
However, compared to the demon hero Names that Levi saw last time, this unknown female demon was obviously much uglier. Her eyes were like sulfur, and her mouth was full of disordered fangs, which made people feel disgusted just by looking at her.
But her tone was surprisingly loud: "Elf, you actually dared to challenge the great Lord Malis, you are courting your own death!"
Li Wei laughed: "So, you come out and take my life!"
While laughing, he threw out two micro-meteors again in a demonstrative manner, successfully knocking down a small group of low-level demons.
Although the number of enemies killed was not too many, the irony was too obvious to the demons.
The demon Maris immediately became furious: "Damned mortal, I will burn your soul with flames!"
After a slight pause, she waved her right claw and a fireball flew out, rapidly expanding in the air.
Levi's expression changed slightly. This was not the first time he had seen this kind of magic. This was the extremely powerful Fireball spell among the third-level magic!
He immediately used the anti-camp magic circle, but it was too late. As the fireball exploded, the scorching flames instantly swept across the area within dozens of square meters, and the place immediately turned into a sea of fire.
Caught off guard, several ranged units in the center of the fireball's landing point were killed on the spot, and more than a dozen were injured. Even if they were lucky enough not to die, almost all of them were seriously injured, and more than one person even suffered from negative effects such as burning.
He immediately knew that the other party must also have a feat in spell enhancement, and most likely also had elemental specialization - fire, ignition, and other similar feats and skills that could enhance fire magic. After all, most demons are naturally good at using the power of fire, otherwise the power would not be so great.
Fortunately, he had taken some precautions beforehand, and Donna's space ring also had some life potions and purification potions, so the wounded were not burned to death.
But this is not the end. The demon Maris waved her hand again, and three smaller orange fireballs formed a straight line and headed straight towards Levi.
This is also a tier 3 magic - continuous fireballs. Although its power is much smaller than that of fireball, it has the advantage of extremely fast casting speed and certain tracking and locking effects.
But this level of attack is nothing to Levi . Since he dares to take the risk of casting spells on the front line, how can he not make corresponding preparations?
Silently, the Glazed Jade Lion used its Glazed Light skill, covering Levi with a glazed light. Combined with the many protective magic spells Levi had already used, he took the continuous fireballs but only lost about twenty points of life.
The demon Maris suddenly became more and more angry, but she also knew that her opponent's fire resistance was amazingly strong, and she might not die even if she was hit by two fireballs.
So after pausing for two seconds, she directly shifted her target of attack, and two walls made of flames rose from the ground, trying to separate the long-range troops led by Donna.
Levi saw the other party's purpose. He snorted coldly and drove the glazed jade lion back.
At the same time, needless to say, out of a long-standing tacit understanding, Donna has already commanded the archers to bypass the Fiery Wall and try to retreat behind the infantry formation.
Because they all knew that the other side no longer wanted to continue to be beaten in the village, and the demons were going to take the initiative to attack!
As expected, after venting all this, the demon Maris waved her claws again, and behind her, there were already two or three hundred horned demons and horned demon warlords gathered. Then she glared at the direction of Levi fiercely: "Attack, kill them all!"
Following her slightly shrill scream, hundreds or even thousands of demons roared in response. They poured out from the village entrance one after another. Some of them were so impatient that they directly climbed over the barricades and fences and rushed towards Levi excitedly.
The hellhound was in the lead, but following closely behind were not the equally fast ape demons or slaughter demons, but some horned demons.
As soon as Levi saw the speed of their charge, he immediately knew that something was wrong, because compared with the same kind they had encountered before, the speed of these horned demons was obviously 20% to 30% faster, and the power of their charge must be even stronger.
At this time, the Amazons who had been waiting for a long time also shouted and raised their bows and arrows, using the rain of arrows to cover. Some cavalry archers took the initiative to harass and delay the enemy. Then the three Amazon heroes also used battle treasures that they had never used before.
The anaconda took out a broken stone slab from its space ring, the birds waved their war flags, and the piranhas blew their horns.
Then, at once, three rays of light flashed on the bodies of all the Amazons, and their attack power, speed and magic resistance were improved to a certain extent.
The reason why Levi knew it so clearly was because Zhou Miyin and others who were at the forefront also enjoyed part of the bonus effect.
In his opinion, although the enhanced attributes were not high, the area covered was quite large, especially the battle flag, which almost covered all friendly units on the battlefield.
At the same time, Lisa Dilan, Julia, Simon and others also led their respective teams to attack from the outside, not seeking to kill the enemy, but only to disperse part of the enemy's forces. Moreover, they were 100% sure that this trick would be absolutely effective against the demons because they only wanted to destroy and kill and did not care who the target was.
The other chosen heroes who had not put in much effort before, at this time, shouted and led their troops to meet the enemy, because they all knew that this was the most critical moment.
If they didn't fight hard and let the demon army break through their positions in one go, they would have no chance of escaping the demon army's pursuit in this land full of ashes and flames.
Levi also cast spells one after another, summoning many celestial creatures and asking them to attack from another direction, trying to tie down some of the enemy's forces.
The celestial creatures who represent justice and kindness have always hated evil things such as demons and devils, but on the other hand, don’t the other party hate them as well?
He also began to ask Xiao Qi to summon the Ice Sub-Kong, preparing to enchant Donna and others.
He had not used it before just to lure out the demon, but now it was time to really start the battle, and he had already determined the attributes of the enemy leader, so he naturally had to use their power. He was sure that he would be able to give the demon Maris a big surprise later...
So with everyone's joint efforts, Donna and other long-range troops retreated smoothly and safely into the formation. The demon troops were also dispersed by the friendly forces on both sides, especially the fastest hellhounds, almost all of which were attracted away.
Although the demon Maris roared and screamed desperately, trying to stop them from doing so and instead focus all their attention on the frontal troops, except for the horned demon, the other demons were like rabid dogs that had broken free from their shackles and did not listen to her orders at all. The Amazons alone led away hundreds of demons.
After cursing angrily for a few times, she could only release a few consecutive fireballs and flaming magic walls as a way of venting her anger.
But this time her efforts were in vain, because Donna and others had already retreated, and at Levi's signal, all the troops retreated slightly as a whole, so unless she took the initiative to walk out of the village, the range of her magic would be far from enough.
After gritting her teeth several times, she finally did not choose to act rashly. Instead, she took advantage of the chaos to retreat to the rear because she found that the opponent's hero units seemed to be a little too many and a little too strong.
Levi, who had been staring at her, couldn't help but frown. Although the demon army was coming in full force, he was not afraid at all. After all, apart from those soul-judgment demons, the other side only had more numbers and occupied the advantage of terrain. In fact, their average strength was not as good as his.
And by now, he has understood that even the heroes among the indigenous people may not be that strong.
At least in a one-on-one fight, he was absolutely sure that he could defeat the witch Tiva. Most of the heroes recruited by Lightforger and others in the tavern were not as good as Tiva.
So even though he knew there was a hero in the village, he was not afraid at all.
But now this demon Maris was retreating instead of advancing, which made him a little confused about the situation for a moment.
Could it be that she thought these demons alone were enough to defeat her? Or was she preparing some other conspiracy?
Thinking of this, Levi couldn't help but look at the two-story-high boar-headed demon in the village. Was she counting on those guys? But she was afraid she would be disappointed.
Although he had never actually killed this kind of soul-judging demon, but with many parts of the world caught in the flames of war and suffering from the invasion of demons, their information was not particularly secretive...
At this time, the horned demons also hit the melee troops fiercely, so Levi immediately discovered that their attack, defense and magic resistance were obviously much stronger than the horned demons he had encountered in the wild before.
The demon Maris either has some special treasure on her, or she is probably specialized in the horned demon type of soldiers.
Unfortunately, the position of the horned demon in the demon army is that of a consumable cannon fodder. Even if its attributes have been enhanced to a certain extent, they are actually not that good.
Not to mention that Zhou Miyin and the Silver Light Guards could easily hold off the opponent, even Cindy could fight the opponent head-on without giving in.
After getting help from several special types of angels, applying a bunch of buff states, and using some magic scrolls and consumable potions, she was now emitting circles , and her strength had been increased by several percent.
Every time she strikes with her hammer, the horned demon in front of her will often be forced to retreat again and again. This is not only because of her strength, but also because of the sacred and bright power carried by the hammer, which is the nemesis of demons.
At the same time, there are two psychic hammers floating in the air to provide assistance. Ordinary horned demons cannot last for more than a few seconds before being smashed into tattered corpses.
In comparison, the other God-chosen heroes were obviously struggling, but as long as they looked after each other, it was absolutely impossible for them to be defeated in a short period of time.
After casting spells several times in succession, the anti-camp magic circle covered most of the friendly forces. After releasing the elemental damage tolerance and mage armor to important subordinates such as Zhou Miyin and Cindy, Donna and other long-range troops also adjusted their status and began to show their power. Groups of demons were harvested like wheat.
Levi finally breathed a sigh of relief. If the demon Maris had rushed out just now, with her fire magic, he might have been thrown into a panic and suffered the most serious losses. But she backed down at the last moment, and the outcome of the battle was actually revealed in advance.
Then he summoned two large fire elementals to hold the line. Their natural resistance to fire always brought extra surprises when fighting against demons.
At this time, the ground began to tremble slightly, and three Soul-Judgement Demons, each over six meters tall and weighing several thousand kilograms, rushed out together. Looking at the red light surrounding them, Levi seemed to know what the demon Maris had just done.
Fire control magic, tolerance of elemental damage, fire shield, flaming fist...
She seemed to have released all her auxiliary magic, as if she wanted to specifically target Levi's micro-meteors.
Unfortunately, despite her efforts, she was doomed to be disappointed due to the lack of crucial intelligence...
As for herself, she found a fiery red warhorse from somewhere, and slowly approached under the protection of three soul-judgment demons.
However, she obviously had no expertise in casting spells while moving. She could not cast spells while moving. Every time she was ready to cast a spell, she had to stop her mount, which gave Levi the opportunity to predict.
Since he doesn't know Fireball, he can't perform a counterspell, but he can minimize his own casualties. As a tier-3 magic, Fireball takes time to cast.
So even though she released fireballs several more times, the average casualties caused each time were far less than the first time, and the Amazons were the ones who were blown away the most.
There was no way, because Levi had no authority to command them, and they were the closest to her.
Although they are agile, their movement speed can never match the flying speed of the fireball.
After killing more than twenty Amazons, there was no pride or joy on the ugly face of the demon Maris. Although she killed some ordinary troops, the one she wanted to kill most was the elven wizard!
Of course Levi could see the other party's resentment, so while casting the spell, he deliberately hung around in a more conspicuous place, waiting for the other party to enter Donna's best shooting range.
But the Amazon hero nicknamed "Piranha" who is in charge of this battlefield is not aware of this for the time being. When she sees that the magic of the demon Maris is so powerful and the three newly appeared enemies are so huge in size, they must be extremely powerful, and she immediately becomes anxious.
Without communicating with Levi at all, she hurriedly sent out the remaining fifty or sixty cheetahs, black wolves and other ferocious beasts that were more flexible and fast, trying to carry out targeted harassment on the enemy leader and even create opportunities for sniping by long-range troops.
Although her intentions were good, Levi, who had been observing the entire battlefield, couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Not to mention the powerful magic of the demon Maris himself, although the three-headed soul-judgment demons look big and strong and very stupid, they are level 5 demons after all, and they also possess special powers. These beasts are just courting their deaths!
As expected, facing the attack of a large number of ferocious beasts, the demon Maris laughed instead. She continued to use magic to attack the most vulnerable Amazons and did not take them seriously at all.
It was not until they approached to about twenty meters away that the two Soul Judges in the front roared, and a rainbow-like light enveloped their bodies. Then after a short delay, this light, which was even somewhat beautiful, spread out with the wind, just covering all the beasts that pounced on them.
Almost instantly, all the beasts stopped moving.
Some of them became stiff on the spot, their limbs still in the motion of running, and then they fell straight to the ground;
Some turned and ran away, roaring wildly as they ran;
Some of them seemed like they were drunk, wandering around for a few steps before finally falling headfirst into the mud.
In just one second, the threat they posed was completely eliminated.
After doing all this, the soul-judgment demons acted as if nothing had happened. They continued to protect the demon Maris and march forward, without even attacking the beasts specifically.
Only when the opponent stands in their way will they smash the opponent to death with their fists or trample the opponent to death, and they are extremely arrogant for a while.
And they do have the capital to be arrogant. Although there are only three of them, their actual combat power is even greater than that of the Hundred-Horned Demon!
The piranha had no idea what was going on and was stunned for a moment. After several seconds, she groaned like in a dream: "Athena, what kind of demon is this..."
Levi, who was replenishing Xiaoqi's magic, couldn't help but feel something in his heart.
Prior to this, several Amazons had always been shy about telling others about their origins. Even though he had deliberately arranged such an opportunity to meet them by chance, he was unable to obtain any more useful information except for the four words "Lustria".
But now he has made a small progress. These Amazons of mysterious origin seem to believe in Athena, the goddess of war and wisdom.
This is not completely incomprehensible. After all, according to current intelligence, the people worshipped by the Amazons and Spartans seem to be based on the real Greek gods.
In Levi's opinion, those guys who just do sex all day long, ignore secular etiquette and even race, are more like mortals who do not hide their desires at all and are extremely powerful rather than gods.
Athena was one of the few among them who possessed wisdom and virtue. If it were her who arranged some secret and important plans in this world, it would be the one that he would be able to understand and accept the most.
First, he released Xiaoqi and let it go to a certain location to prepare for the next plan. Then Levi gave a brief explanation to the piranha.
"That is the evil light attack of the Soul Judge Demons. It can create extremely terrifying illusions in the target's mind. For low-level soldiers who cannot see through the illusions and cannot resist fear, it may produce at least one of the three effects of deterrence, fear, and dizziness. This allows them to be fearless of siege to a certain extent."
That's right, although they look big and strong, like a thick-skinned meat shield, but in fact, in addition to their own fists and feet, the Soul Judges rely more on their own special skills.
Although they only have this one skill, the effect is good enough that they can even be classified as magic demons.
After all, no one has ever said that magic demons must be thin, right?
The piranha looked at him with some resentment, as if it didn't understand at all why he didn't seem nervous at all when a powerful enemy was approaching rapidly?
But the next moment, with Donna's light shout, dozens of ice-blue arrows shot out, directly piercing through the layers of protective magic on the Soul Judge's body, creating dozens of bleeding wounds and causing it to roar in pain. Then she seemed to understand a little.
Although the enemy is very strong, Levi already has a way to deal with it!
Then came the second wave of arrows. This time, the Soul-Judgement Demon that was chosen as the priority target did not make any roars, because it was killed instantly.
Although its huge body may give it powerful close combat capabilities, it also makes it the most conspicuous target on the battlefield.
It was not until its corpse fell heavily to the ground that the demon Maris woke up from his dream.
Then she almost jumped up from her mount: "Damn elf, aren't you a mage who is proficient in fire magic?"
Levi chuckled. He now mastered dozens of different kinds of magic. Although his micrometeor was indeed powerful, it didn't mean that he only knew how to use micrometeor!
But he certainly had no interest in explaining to the enemy, because after his companion died in battle, the other two Soul Judges had already rushed up with red eyes.
Grease spells, spider web spells, and quicksand traps were all ignored by them, and they couldn't even delay the attack for a moment. Although their effects were good, their level was too low after all.
Seeing the two soul-judging demons rushing straight towards Levi, and gradually glowing with the light of evil light, Levi suddenly shouted, "Cindy!"
Without saying a word, Cindy had already responded to him with her actions. As she raised her hammer, the phantom of a golden lighthouse tens of meters high flashed by.
Then everyone felt that Cindy's petite body was so majestic and powerful at this moment. Even just looking at her made their hearts full of courage.
This is the unique skill of Sigmar's battle priests - Beacon of Courage!
The next moment, the evil light attacks of the Soul Judge Demons had arrived, and then they wanted to take advantage of the situation to pass through the melee troops and directly attack Levi.
But soon they all cried out in pain because the development of the situation was completely beyond their expectations.
Except for the two outermost silver guards who stood frozen as if affected by the evil light attack, all the other melee troops around them were still attacking them desperately as if nothing had happened!
Then the rain of arrows came again, leaving dozens of small but painful wounds on their bodies.
Thanks to their exceptionally outstanding size, even in a melee between the two sides, long-range troops such as Donna do not have to worry too much about accidentally injuring friendly forces.
After seeing this scene, Levi nodded with a hint of satisfaction. The planning before the battle was one thing, but the reality was another. Although it was an accident that there was a demon hero in the village who was very good at fire magic, fortunately other aspects were under control.
Then, before he could turn around to see how the demon Maris would react, the piranha had already shouted, "Levi, look, that demon hero is trying to escape!"
Um?
Levi quickly turned his head and saw that the demon Maris, who had been very arrogant, had turned his horse around and headed straight into the village.
He immediately became unhappy, seeing that the battle had completely entered into his own rhythm and victory was only a matter of time, and you, a guy, actually still want to run away?
And the last time the demon hero was like this, it is said that demons are warlike, but you demon heroes are too cowardly, aren't you? You are simply smearing your entire race!
He communicated directly with Xiao Qi and Supervisor Yakong through the mind link, then turned to look at Janet: "It's time!"
"OK!"
Janet nodded quickly, communicating with her pet through the mind link.
Then, a few seconds later, everyone saw seven or eight animals, or beings with animal characteristics, suddenly appear on the east side and attack the demon Maris.
Three supervisory Yakongs harassed with bows and arrows, then two mastiff-headed Yakongs summoned by Xiao Qi flew in first, and finally Laxili, the great white lion, Shadow Claw, and a mixed-blood fire leopard summoned by Janet rushed up together.
Although the demon Maris had entered the village, they showed no intention of slowing down, which made the demon Maris even more terrified. However, because she had no expertise in moving spells, she could not use any magic in the process of escaping and could only call for help from friendly forces.
But most of the demons had already rushed out to fight a decisive battle with Levi and his men, leaving only some low-level demons in the village.
Even the Gogs and Magogs who were originally standing on the watchtowers have climbed down one after another, as if trying to join the battlefield.
So now they are in a bit of an awkward situation, with the enemy and our side mixed together, making it difficult for them to launch attacks. Although the demons are naturally resistant to fire, they are still far from being immune.
At the critical moment , the demon Maris became angry and said, "Don't worry about them, just kill them all!"
As soon as the words came out, before the Gogs could take action, the low-level demons who were resisting the Mastiff-headed Yakon and others were a little unhappy. Although they were warlike, they were not pure fools. Because they belonged to the chaotic evil camp, even if the opponent was a heroic unit, they would not obey them!
So more than one demon began to try to withdraw from the battle, and there were even two brave guys who turned around and wanted to attack the demon Maris.
Although they were knocked away by the demon Maris's horse in the blink of an eye, due to this brief delay, two large fire elementals several meters high had already appeared between Gog and Magog.
After seeing their figures, the demon Maris immediately felt despair, knowing that she had completely lost the chance of turning the situation around.
Turning her head slightly, she saw Levi, who was not far from the village entrance, looking at her with a smile. He had left the main battlefield at some point and arrived there under the escort of a small number of elite troops.
She couldn't help but glared at him fiercely: "Elf, don't think I will just let it go. This is not over between us!"
As she said this, she took out a magic scroll from her space ring and reached out to activate it.
Levi couldn't help but narrow his eyes. At this time, she still thought she could survive?
Is there some special magic sealed in that scroll? Or can it summon powerful monsters?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but urge the glazed jade lion to retreat. Although it would be a pity if he couldn't kill the opponent, there was no need to risk his own life.
The demon Maris noticed his action and immediately revealed a mocking smile, but the next moment, a blue and white magic arrow fell from the sky and pierced through the scroll in her hand.
Under the influence of this, the entire scroll exploded directly and turned into a dazzling firework, and all the movements and expressions of the demon Maris froze instantly.
But unlike her, Levi laughed out loud because Lisa Dilan, Julia and others had already dealt with their opponents and prevented their final counterattack at the most critical moment!
