Volume 2 Spread Wings Chapter 215: Common hatred and common enemy
Nothing unexpected happened on the way back this time, and probably because of the activeness of other God-chosen heroes, they didn't even encounter any demons blocking the way along the way. Levi was happy to have some free time, and he began to take the opportunity to build a relationship with the Amazon hero Dorara.
Perhaps because they had fought side by side and recognized Levi's strength, the attitudes of several Amazon heroes towards him had obviously changed, and they were willing to share more information.
According to them, their hometown is in the jungle of Lustria. Under the instruction of the goddess Athena, they have a good relationship with many lizardmen there who are also guardians, and they fight together against the invasion of Skaven and pirates from various races along the coast.
There, numerous lizardmen's cities formed a huge network of spiritual veins. With the help of their power, the magic toad wizards were powerful enough to move mountains and seas, and the spirit lizard wizards could often exert extremely powerful strength.
At the same time, the lizardmen are also very good at raising and training various dinosaurs. Under the leadership of many wizards, they install various powerful magical instruments on them, which are more powerful than ordinary artillery.
This made them the undisputed overlords of Lustria, dwarfing the Amazons, most of whom still used bows and spears.
After so many years of hard work, most of the evil races in Lustria have been wiped out, and the new Amazons have fewer and fewer opportunities to train. Due to the recent rise of the God-chosen heroes, they are sent to various parts of the world to find new fighting opportunities.
Precisely because it was a training exercise, the ranks of the troops under their command were not high, but they did not expect that the large-scale enemy they encountered for the first time would be such a powerful enemy as the Black Castle Demons.
For the Amazons themselves, in addition to becoming stronger, there is another very important point, which is to obtain as much spoils as possible so that they can go back and win the competition with other sisters.
That's why they were so greedy for the spoils.
But if there is a stable, long-term way to obtain money, they don't mind being loyal to other forces or even the chosen heroes.
After figuring this out, Levi quickly decided with Anaconda and the others that after the battle in Black Castle was over, they would go to Bitao Village in person and establish a permanent base there.
For the Amazons, they can gain a relatively stable bridgehead here in the future, and for Levi, he can obtain a new channel for recruiting soldiers. This is a win-win situation for both parties.
However, this also meant that he had one more task. He had to ensure that at least three Amazon heroes would not all die in the battle with the demons. Otherwise, the other ordinary Amazons would not be able to make a decision...
When they were almost at the meeting point, they finally found other God-chosen heroes who were resting near a small hill. What a coincidence, the other party happened to be the president of the Temple of Arcane - Master.
Levi let his subordinates take a break for a while. They were only a few miles away from the main force. They could even see the fluttering battle flags from afar. There should be no blind enemies who dared to attack them.
Amazon naturally had no objection, as it was only a few minutes late.
Unlike before, there were now at least twenty God-chosen heroes following Master in front and behind him, and without exception, they were all mages.
Moreover, their troops are also distinctive. In addition to the standard configuration of high elves such as spearmen and archers, the most common in their team are various golems.
Clay golems, sandstone golems, bronze golems, iron golems, strangler golems, and even two 5-meter-tall level 4 granite golems beside Master. Together, there are more than two hundred of them, which looks quite extraordinary for a moment.
In a sense, these golems are the nemesis of ordinary high elf chosen heroes, because almost all golems have the characteristics of high attack, high health, and high physical defense and magic resistance.
Of course, in addition to the high price, which results in each of their troops having significantly fewer troops than other God-chosen heroes, the speed and agility of the golems are also their most obvious characteristics and shortcomings.
If Levi were to come into conflict with the enemy, unless all the golems stayed where they were and surrounded the relatively vulnerable mages, his micro meteors, Donna's rain of arrows, or Lisadilan and Julia's cavalry archers would all find a way to teach them a lesson.
If the situation were reversed, he felt it would be necessary to add some gargoyles and the like to defend against the enemy's air force and cavalry.
However, there is no big problem with the direction of their efforts. If they encounter a race that mainly relies on melee troops, such as demons or greenskins, they will be able to exert considerable power.
Levi felt that he might need to discuss with the Lightforged and the Sun Knight and try to get Warhaven and the Temple of the Arcane to cooperate, because in the next battle against the greenskinned God-chosen heroes, this kind of configuration would surely shine.
At this time Master also discovered them. He took the initiative to stop his troops and waited for Levi to approach.
After seeing many members of his team, he couldn't help but look surprised.
If he had taken the initiative to greet them only because of the close relationship between Levi and Michaela, he would have later searched for some information about the other party on the forum, and he felt that he had a general understanding of the other party's strength.
But it was not until this moment, when he had truly seen the enemy's troops, that he realized that he had still underestimated them.
It's obvious that those God-chosen heroes are just there to make up the numbers. Even though there are so many Amazons around, Levi alone can at least capture 30% to 40%, or even more military merit, right?
So since both parties were willing to make friends, the subsequent communication became very smooth and both sides quickly shared information.
Then Levi discovered that the village that the Arcane Temple went to had been attacked and broken by the indigenous people several times before, so the defense was indeed relatively weak. Not only was there no hero leading the team, but the highest they had was only a level 4 Flame-Breath Hellhound. They broke into the village without much effort.
Of course, the military merit points and resources they received were reduced a lot as a result of this, and when distributed among so many people, they became even less.
Soon Levi got to the point, which was to form an alliance to fight against the huge greenskin guild - Blood Boiling.
As soon as the words came out, not only did Master snort coldly, but several of his deputies beside him also looked indignant.
Levi immediately knew that there must be something going on. Sure enough, Master quickly told Levi that they had a grudge against each other for a long time.
They had previously taken a fancy to a village that was temporarily under the direct jurisdiction of the Dragon Prince, and were thinking of making it their territory in the future. For this purpose, they contributed a lot of resources in order to build that village better.
But one time when they went out together to surround and kill the BOSS, they were not paying attention and were stolen by those green-skinned God-chosen heroes, and even several members were killed once.
Of course they could not give up, so they launched several attacks afterwards, trying to retake the village.
At the beginning, they had the upper hand thanks to the outstanding performance of many golems and mages, but soon the opponent used human wave tactics. The greenskins became more and more numerous as they fought, and later, large troops of one or two thousand would surround and beat them, forcing them to flee in embarrassment.
Now Levi proposed to cooperate to deal with the greenskins, which was exactly what they wanted.
As a result, the two parties quickly reached a preliminary cooperation intention. Levi did not make decisions for the guild, but he could make his own decisions.
Perhaps to show his sincerity and strength, Master quickly took out two documents.
The first one detailed the class, attributes, skills and even weaknesses of the various types of greenskin soldiers.
The second one contains the member information of the Blood Boiling Guild, including name, occupation, level, and the troops they lead.
After reading it, Levi was immediately filled with awe, and his respect for Master increased to a higher level.
Wow, having collected such detailed information, it seems that Master really hates the other party to the core.
With such thorough preparation, even if he is not yet a match for the greenskins, once he gets the chance, he will definitely give the Blood Boiling Guild a severe blow.
After a brief pause, Levi took out a surveying compass that Michaela had given him before, and shared the mission of tracking down the undead.
Although the reward for this thing is good, it is too difficult to find some hidden places with no clues in an area as large as Taiwan Province. I might as well give it away as a favor.
Master didn't take it too seriously at first and just took it out of politeness, but after reading the system description clearly, he suddenly became extremely excited.
"Levi, thank you very much, this mission really comes at the right time!"
Levi immediately felt something was wrong: "Oh? Have you found any clues before?"
Master nodded repeatedly : "Yes, in fact, we found a place two days ago, not far from a village occupied by demons, but we followed the natives to attack and retreat yesterday, and today we went to fight in another village, so we haven't had time to take a closer look."
"But now with this mission, I can be 100% sure that there must be an army of undead hiding there!"
"After finishing today's mission, if you are willing, how about going with us to take a look?"
Master was not too stingy and took the initiative to share the information, but seeing how excited he was, Levi frowned: "Not far from the village? Does that mean it's easy for the demons to find them?"
"Well, that's true, but demons only like to kill lives. They have no interest in the undead, elementals, and machines. Unless they are in their way, demons won't attack them on purpose."
Master was a little confused for a moment, not knowing what Levi was struggling with.
But Levi had the urge to hold his forehead: "Master, you overlooked the most important point. The demon lord Orcus who opened the abyss rift this time is nicknamed the 'King of Undead Creatures'. Haven't you noticed that some demons have undead characteristics?!"
"ah?"
Master was stunned for a moment. After turning around and looking at the others, he found that everyone had a confused look on their faces. It was obvious that they were not aware of this problem either.
It was not known whether it was because they were too careless and did not pay attention, or because it was too coincidental, they had never encountered a similar enemy before.
Just as they were looking at each other, a gray-black light full of ominous light suddenly flashed, and everyone felt their bodies go cold. Then a large shadow like a dark cloud started from the direction of the Black Castle and quickly filled half of the sky.
Upon seeing this, Levi couldn't help but sigh, knowing that the other party's plan had completely failed.
Master's face was full of pain, because he also recognized this dark cloud. This was the dark sky curtain most commonly used by the undead. Wherever the dark sky curtain covered, there would definitely be a large number of undead appearing!
As if in response to his inner thoughts, huge magic circles gradually emerged from the ground on a plain less than a thousand meters away from them.
Then, it was as if a door to the underworld opened, and hundreds of undead warriors covered in black armor stepped out first.
Their old armor and weapons seemed to indicate that they had been dormant for a long time, but this did not reduce their lethality too much. They were the third-tier grave guards.
Next came nearly a hundred black knights holding lances and riding bone horses, all of them were level 4 soldiers.
There were also at least three or four hundred Level 2 Abyss Ghouls and Level 3 Infernal Jackals, which were between the dead and demons. Led by some of the more powerful Level 4 Abyss Badgers, they charged at them using their hands and feet.
Before, Levi had always wondered why these distinctive demons seemed to disappear all of a sudden after leaving the Rocky Highlands . Now he realized that they had been accumulating strength in secret.
Just within their sight, there are three or four magic circles and at least thousands of enemies. Then, within the entire sphere of influence of the Black Castle, how many magic circles and ambushes are there in total?
Perhaps the undead originally intended to wait for an opportunity to launch a counterattack against the high elves, but now they have become the devil's scapegoat.
Countless black shadows took off from the black castle in the distance, and quickly spread around along with the expanding dark sky.
Although it was not clear at the moment whether those black shadows were Quasers, Iron Knights, or simply all vampires, it at least seemed that the demons did not sit idly by in the face of the massive attack of the high elves, and they were also launching a counterattack!
"Zhou Miyin, set up the formation along the hillside immediately!"
"Anaconda, Bird, Lisadiran, Julia, each of you lead your team to attack. The charge of the black knights is very powerful, but their speed is almost the slowest among the cavalry of the same level. Remember to keep your distance!"
"Everyone else, take your positions. Be careful of being attacked by the enemy's air force!"
After quickly issuing a series of orders, Levi ignored Donna because she always knew what she should do.
He just turned and looked at Master: "How is it? What are your choices next?"
Master waved his fist fiercely: "Of course I will fight alongside you!"
