Volume 2 Spread Wings Chapter 251: Epic Victory, Eclipse Alliance
Perhaps due to the long truce, the system judged them as not hostile. So when Levi and his men killed most of the undead present, leaving only Silent Shadow, his troops, and the vampire hunter Lucia, the system's prompt arrived in time.
"Based on the comparison of both sides' strength and casualties, this battle is evaluated as an epic victory, with an experience value multiplier of 135%. The top five contributors (Levi, Cindy, Donna, Elegy , and Nar) will receive some additional experience value rewards, and hero units will receive additional campaign experience value rewards."
This time, Cindy successfully surpassed Donna and became the second person with the highest combat contribution in the team. This was certainly because her strength became stronger and stronger, but the Angel of Dawn, Zhiyang, who was summoned by her, also made an indispensable contribution.
But he was still no match for Levi. His micro-meteor fireballs were too useful when dealing with these undead.
Moreover, his many summoned creatures have also been attacking all the time. Although their average strength is far inferior to Zhiyang, the battle duration is much longer, so they should not be underestimated.
Elegy's performance was also obvious to all. When dealing with the Undead without ranged units, her combat effectiveness was fully demonstrated. With the blessing of the powerful Cleave, she almost never stopped wielding dual greatswords.
Especially when the undead became weak, she was almost like a lawn mower, reaping their lives quickly.
Nar successfully made the list thanks to several ancient guardians. Although these big guys are slow in movement, their attack power is extremely powerful. The boulders they throw are like cannonballs, which can cause damage to enemy forces in a small area, thus creating a massive output.
What surprised Levi the most was that after the battle, she was able to restore these ancient guardians into seeds for next use. This was a bit outrageous.
Although Nar explained that the seeds treated in this way could not be reused in a short period of time, Levi also raised his evaluation of her to a higher level.
What surprised Levi was that Alduin, whom he had been very optimistic about and who had displayed a mighty half-dragon posture in battle, actually failed to make it into the top five of the military merit list.
This was mainly because he was good at defense but seriously lacked in offense. Except for the lightning breath he had after transforming into a half-dragon, he could only slash with his sword normally and didn't even have skills like a smooth slash.
However, Lightning Breath cannot be used frequently, not only because of its long cooldown time and high mana consumption, but also because of its time limit after it transforms into a half-dragon.
From what we can tell right now, it's estimated to be only about two minutes, and the cooldown time seems to be exceptionally long, as he only used it once in the entire battle.
As for the Paladin's spells, he did know some, but the Paladin's spell list was far inferior to that of a priest or a wizard.
Not only is the highest level only 4, but they are never inclined towards offense. They are either auxiliary such as Divine Grace, Blessed Weapon, and Holy Healing, or defensive such as Protection from Evil and Counter Chaos. They are good at self-preservation but seriously lack output.
Overall, if he is in his own team, he is more suitable to be a full-time meat shield.
"One of your random non-elite subordinates will be promoted to an elite soldier, and two random subordinates will have the opportunity to be promoted (based on the strength of the enemies you defeated in this battle, the highest they will be promoted will not exceed level 5)."
"You have successfully thwarted a major conspiracy of the Undead. Your regional legend level is +2."
"5 points of regional legend are converted to 1 point of legend, your legend is +1, currently 4."
"You have destroyed part of ???'s plan. When the news gets back, there is a high chance that you will be hated by the other party."
Although this hint was quite strange, Levi felt that with the presence of the vampire hunter, he would be able to solve the puzzle soon.
"Due to your continuous fight against evil and outstanding achievements, your reputation among the Gaidingtian tribe has been improved, from neutral to friendly."
This was an unexpected surprise. Based on Levi's current experience, this system prompt was very concise, but the Gaiding people would definitely react next.
This is the characteristic of the lawful good camp. When the two camps are in harmony, their attitude towards you is truly good from the bottom of their hearts.
"You have obtained information about the descendants of the evil dragon, the bloodthirsty sky ghost, etc. Please click to view it."
"You killed a large number of undead enemies at once. You have obtained the campaign title - Undead Slayer (Elementary). When fighting against undead enemies, the attack power of all your soldiers will be increased by 1 and the health will be increased by 5."
"The summon of your subordinate Cindy killed the undead hero, Des von Carstein. She received an additional experience reward and 2 fragments of the hero's spirit."
"You killed the hero of the Undead. Your reputation among the Undead has dropped significantly and is currently hatred. Your reputation among the von Carstein family has dropped significantly and is currently hatred."
In addition to his previous accumulation, Levi was able to synthesize another hero's spirit, and even had one more heroic subordinate. As for the hatred of the undead and the von Carstein family, he was no longer surprised.
"Through continuous battles, your heroic demeanor has won the admiration and praise of everyone. Your Charm attribute +1."
This was really an unexpected surprise. Levi remembered that it was Donna who obtained the same attribute bonus last time. Unfortunately, there was no relevant information on the forum and he did not have enough information for the time being.
Roughly speaking, it seems to be related to the frequent big victories?
"Your campaign level has been raised to 6. You can choose new campaign skills."
1. Basic trading skills, slightly increase the selling price and slightly reduce the buying price (only applicable to transactions between natives, the specific effect is based on the charm, intelligence, reputation and legend of both parties to the transaction). The effects of similar skills cannot be stacked. If the other party has the same or higher level trading skills, or other similar skills, this skill has a high chance of failure.
2. Primary offensive skill, which increases the attack power of all your troops. The basic increase value is 3, and the additional value is based on attack (campaign attribute);
3. Basic financial management skills: slightly increase the tax revenue of the town or village, slightly increase the activity of trading activities such as markets, and slightly increase the chance of traveling merchants visiting and staying (the specific effect is based on charm, intelligence, reputation, and legend, etc.). The effects of similar skills cannot be stacked.
Levi's luck seemed to be good this time. Three new battle skills appeared at once. After taking a look, he directly chose the offensive skill.
In fact, the effects of trading and financial management skills are also good, but they are more suitable for stay-at-home heroes like the witch Tiwa, or other internal affairs heroes, rather than combat heroes like him who run around all day and conquer everywhere.
"Donna's combat level has been raised to 8, and she has gained the skill - fixed-point aiming."
Fixed-point aiming, active skill, while standing still, use a standard action to make a single long-range attack, ignoring part of the opponent's defense (depending on your own level and bow and arrow expertise level).
"Through continuous combat, her bow and arrow expertise (intermediate) was upgraded to advanced, and its effectiveness was enhanced."
"Elegy's combat level is raised to 7th, and she gains the feat - Improved Two-Weapon Fighting."
Mastering two-weapon combat, the attack power falloff effect is reduced when using two weapons to fight at the same time.
"Through continuous combat, her two-handed greatsword expertise (intermediate) was upgraded to advanced, and its effect was enhanced."
There is nothing to say. These two sisters are the ones that Levi doesn't need to worry about the least.
Especially Elegy, who came from behind and was about to catch up with Donna so quickly. Levi felt that in addition to her own strong strength, she might also have some hidden talents and skills that could speed up her growth. After all, there was still a question mark in her professional talent.
"Your summoned creature - Lost Soul has been upgraded. His passive skill Lost has taken effect. He has recalled the magic he mastered in his lifetime - Summoning Musical Instruments."
Summon a musical instrument, an active skill that consumes 15 magic points, summons a handheld instrument for you to play. When the spell ends, the instrument will disappear directly. The duration depends on your intelligence and level, etc.
In Levi's opinion, this is a useless skill. As a bard, how can he not carry a musical instrument with him?
Moreover, as the number of magic units in the team continued to increase, the effectiveness of the bard was constantly decreasing, and he had begun to look down on him.
So he decided to throw him to Janet from now on, so that he could contribute in the battle and share some experience points with her to speed up her growth.
Then came a series of prompts for the advancement of subordinates, including infantry, archers, priests, huntresses, etc. There were enough undead this time, and they became weaker later on, which gave everyone the opportunity to fully demonstrate their strength and gain experience points.
The opportunity to advance to the elite fell to a 4th-level devout priest. Levi felt that she could become a team leader or something like that in the future.
The two opportunities for ordinary advancement fell to Avalon and Shadow Warrior respectively, which was a good result. In normal combat, the effect that ranged units could exert was indeed stronger than that of ordinary infantry.
Finally, several of the summoned creatures, the Yakong and the Gedin, advanced, but the three angels of courage all died when Levi was not paying attention.
After asking specifically, he learned that the other party had taken the initiative to rush into the vampire warriors and was then beaten to death.
This made him feel somewhat speechless. This was not an angel of courage at all; it was clearly an angel of recklessness!
It seems that next time I summon them, I will never let them fight freely. They should just obey orders obediently.
However, it can be seen that they really hate evil and would rather sacrifice their own lives.
Levi let his subordinates rest, be on guard, and clean up the battlefield. He glanced to the side and found that the vampire hunter was smoking there out of boredom, finishing half a cigarette in one puff.
I don’t know whether vampires, who don’t need to breathe or exchange air, can enjoy the pleasure of tobacco.
The Silent Shadow on the other side was still there, and even after noticing Levi's eyes, he nodded at him. It seemed that he had made up his mind to hang out with the Sun Knight, otherwise he would have had more than one chance to escape successfully.
Seeing this, Levi nodded to the other party. The heroes chosen by God are more pragmatic, and hatred is often easier to resolve. The opponent had been killed by him several times before, and he suffered heavy losses this time, but he could still let it go. Naturally, there was no need for him to worry about it.
Just as he was about to communicate with Lucia about the relevant information, he saw a Tiger Envoy and a Deer Horn Envoy coming together.
Both of them were the first to be summoned by Levi in their respective races, so they have extremely rich combat experience. It just so happened that they were both promoted to level 5 soldiers in the battle just now.
Then the Swift Rat Envoy, who was always very low-key, and the Pengyu Envoy, who had just arrived and was not particularly familiar with Levi, also stood up one by one.
Levi knew immediately that they must have something to say to him, and it was almost certainly a good thing.
As expected, since they already knew Levi's character, the Tiger Envoys with the same personality did not hesitate to be polite and claimed that they were representing the opinions of their respective tribes. They hoped to establish a permanent contract with Levi and they were willing to send troops together to help defend the village, just like the Wolf Patrol Envoys had done before.
Naturally, Levi was the first to express his welcome. Although they had certain distance restrictions when defending, the more auxiliary defense troops there were, the better, as they did not charge any maintenance fees but would hand over all the spoils.
Adding the previous Light Sub-Kong, Water Sub-Kong, Mastiff-Head Sub-Kong and so on, there are now nearly a hundred recruitment slots available every week for celestial creatures alone.
More importantly, this is not a one-time deal, but every town and village under his command can build a portal of the same size, which is extremely powerful.
The Gaiding Tianzu were very happy when they received a positive answer. Before leaving, without Levi saying anything, they took the initiative to express that after they returned this time, they would try to persuade more Gaiding Tianzu to work for Levi.
In their original world, they would not have the opportunity to fight evil as frequently as they do now.
Levi naturally smiled and nodded.
Although now, even with the blessing of the two equipments, the Duet of Economy and the Staff of Command of the Fly Demon, the celestial creatures are gradually unable to compare with the elven troops of the same level with more bonuses, but the advantage of summoned creatures is that there is no need to worry about the problem of loss. When Xiao Qi uses the summoning magic, it will be very secretive and convenient.
More importantly, there are many types of Gaidingtian clan. To be honest, those who appear now are just younger brothers among them, and the stronger ones have not yet appeared.
"Haha, it seems like you are really popular among the celestial beings."
Levi smiled slightly and said nothing: "Okay, Lucia, now tell me your information."
The vampire hunter also stopped smiling: "Which aspect do you want to talk about first?"
Levi hits the nail on the head: "Who is this vampire who wants to be deified?"
Lucia sighed softly: "It's the eternal vampire elder - Kanchelsis."
Levi felt completely confused, because ever since he first learned this information, he had deliberately collected a lot of information about famous vampires, but he was sure that he had not gotten any clues about this name on the forum or from any natives.
Seeing Levi's expression, Lucia laughed instead: "It seems that you have never heard of it. What about the Impaler - Dracula?"
Levi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He was very familiar with this name. Dracula appeared unusually frequently in various games, animations and other worlds.
This time was no exception, and the experience was surprisingly similar. He was an evil vampire who specifically targeted young beauties and liked to transform those beauties into his own ethnic group and harem.
When he first got this information, he thought with malice that vampires were undead creatures, and the blood in their bodies had long since stopped flowing. So even if there were beauties, what could he do to them? He was probably powerless!
But he didn't expect that the other party actually had such an arrogant vest, the eternal vampire elder?
Even the gods have to die in battle, how dare a vampire have such a nickname?
"It seems that you know this time, but unfortunately, even if Dracula is already very famous, he is still nothing compared to Kanchelsis, who is seeking to be deified."
Levi nodded slightly. Dracula had a great reputation in the main world. If he suddenly jumped out and said that he was actually a small account, and now the real big account was stronger and was trying to become a god, the other indigenous people would be able to understand it and it would be reasonable.
"What exactly is his plan? Was Dai Si the subordinate he arranged just now?"
"Yes, Dracula created a huge organization spanning the main world and several small alternate dimensions, called the Eclipse Alliance. They are all powerful vampires and have sworn allegiance to Kanchelsis. Dais is one of them."
"His mission is to study how to strengthen the magic resistance and physical resistance of low-level undead in the Underdark, as well as how to better fight against dragons. As for the effect, you should have already felt it."
Levi did feel that those special ghosts and big bats were much stronger than the common ones.
As for why he, who wanted to become a god, would fight against the dragon clan, the answer is actually obvious.
"He wants to deal with the legendary black dragon Black?"
"That's right." Lucia nodded without hesitation. "The Eclipse Alliance has confirmed that many years ago, Black Dragon Blake got a fragment of the godhead from somewhere, so he began to try to become a god. He even changed his identity and secretly established a sect."
Levi sighed, "Snake worship."
Lucia felt a little surprised. The vampires had used many means to discover this matter, because the Snake Cult openly worshipped a giant snake named Aziz Dahaka, not a black dragon. She didn't expect the other party to be so sure. It was obvious that they had guessed it long ago.
She then rolled her eyes and said, "But there is one thing you may not know yet. The drow elves in the Underdark are also plotting to kill the black dragon Black and seize his fragment of godhood."
Levi narrowed his eyes immediately: "So, they might start a three-way melee?"
Compared to the dark elves who are full of martial virtues and plunder hundreds of races by driving black arks;
The high elves have highly developed magic, have established seaside colonies all over the world, trade with the four seas, and have an excellent diplomatic environment;
The wood elves who guard many magical forests and beat anyone to death;
The drow elves, who stay underground all day and specialize in infighting, seem to be very weak. They even have a city-state system now, and almost one city is an independent force.
But one thing is undeniable, it is precisely because of the frequent internal strife and living in a dark and cruel society all day long that every drow elf has a cunning heart and excellent personal combat effectiveness. Among them, female drow are often stronger than male ones in status and strength.
If the drow elves also joined the war, things would become more complicated.
Lucia nodded, then shook her head. Just when Levi was puzzled, she directly announced the answer: "In fact, the actions of the drow elves will not interfere with the actions of the Eclipse Alliance, because Dracula has been recognized and supported by the Spider Queen Rose."
???
Levi was shocked at first, and then he couldn't believe it. Even among the many evil gods, and even the many demons and devil lords, Rose should be considered the most vicious one.
If there was a chance to be deified, even if she didn't take the fragments of the godhood herself, she would definitely give priority to the drow elves who believed in her. How could she give priority to vampires who had nothing to do with her?
Dracula is certainly famous in the main world, but at best he is just a legend. But how could he have such a great face in front of Rose, the main god of the drow elves and a person of medium power?
And even if the facts are true, how can a mere vampire hunter like you know the plan between God and the vampires who aspire become gods?
unless……
Lucia sighed and said, "My full name is Lucia Dracula. My mother is an elf who was unfortunately bewitched by his magic."
Without waiting for Levi to respond, she continued, "The reason why Rose was willing to give the godhood to Dracula is because he is a monster born from the blood of the elven gods such as Corellon and Rose!"
