Volume 2 Spread Wings Chapter 97: Burn the Boats
Although they all had some ideas in their minds, the battle still had to go on. Just as Levi and the others had speculated before, once they reached a certain line, the tree people would begin to stagnate. This allowed Donna and the others to start shooting to their heart's content.
However, the one who was busier than them was Levi. He had to keep drinking magic potions and then cast the Burning Arrow Technique on Donna and others. Otherwise, except for Donna, the shooting of other shooters would have little effect.
In the hands of the strongest Fallen Treeman, even Donna's rockets would hardly work, because once Donna shot it with rockets, it would immediately shake all over and emit some purple-black mist like a fart.
These mists obviously have special effects, and can even directly extinguish the flames on the arrows. The remaining damage is basically 1 or 2 points. There is no forced damage in this game, so this just means that her defense has just been broken.
On the contrary, the already minor wounds on the body of the Fallen Treeman leader recovered quickly in the mist. This turned out to be a powerful magic with several effects.
This made Donna feel helpless. Although the attack broke the defense, if the damage was not even as fast as the opponent's self-healing speed, how could she kill him?
The 3rd level elite Flame War Goose has over 170 HP. This Fallen Treeman leader is obviously stronger and has thick skin and flesh. She would not feel particularly strange even if the HP is doubled.
Since the release distance of the Burning Hand was too close, Levi did not take any risks. He just tentatively used the Inferior Fire Orb he got from the Chaos Dwarf Hero. Then he found that when the ping-pong ball-sized red fireball flew over, it was also annihilated by the purple-black mist released by the opponent.
This immediately extinguished his idea of catching the leader first, and he knew that the hateful witch was probably lying.
Since she and the bees wanted the things here, how could they not know the strength of this BOSS? Deliberately concealing this situation must be a sinister intention, and there is a high possibility that they want to kill someone with a borrowed knife.
If after a fierce battle, this BOSS successfully killed her, on the one hand she would achieve the goal of weakening the opponent, and on the other hand she naturally would not have to pay subsequent rewards. That's why she appeared so generous and got three bee people as subordinates before she did anything.
Although he felt some resentment in his heart, Levi had no time to spare for the time being. The most urgent thing was to kill the opponent's younger brother first, and then see if there was any other way. At least he had to recover all the losses.
During this process, the leader of the fallen treemen was naturally furious, but he also followed the invisible rule and tried his best not to cross the line. After all the bats were killed, all he could do was throw his minions over several times.
Unfortunately, firstly, its accuracy was not good, and secondly, facing the people who were already prepared, how much trouble could a mere level 3 Fallen Treeman with weakened defense cause?
They couldn't even last half a minute before being besieged and killed by Cindy, Zhou Miyin and others. This made the fallen treeman leader even more furious, but he had no other choice but to continue the attack, even if it was futile.
So in this situation, the number of fallen tree people became fewer and fewer. It was the first time for Levi to fight such a strange battle. He became more and more interested in what these tree people were guarding.
However, these tree people are indeed very tough nuts to crack, and they occupy the special terrain of the forest. No wonder the nominal masters of the Rocky Highlands, the werewolves, and the witch with so many bee people, have temporarily allowed their existence.
Because even if they were killed all in the end, the price would definitely be very high, unless they could defeat the enemy with powerful long-range attacks like Levi and the others are doing now.
Unfortunately, neither the gnolls nor the bee people possess this ability.
Gradually, there were only five or six tree men left on the battlefield. Just when Levi was about to ask Donna to provoke the fallen tree man leader to see if he could lure it out, he found that it roared again and began to retreat slowly, as if it didn't want to continue to be beaten here in vain, but wanted to change to a new battlefield.
Levi frowned immediately. As expected, the one who could speak was different. Although it seemed to be blinded by anger, it still knew how to be afraid when facing danger.
But if we really step into the forest, let alone whether there will be other ambushes in it, just relying on the powerful defense of the Fallen Treeman Leader, we will have almost no way to deal with it, unless...
The Lightforger also saw this: "Levi, if you don't have any other preparations, I'm afraid we can only give up temporarily. This is not something we can challenge right now. It must be at least a Tier 4 Elite, right? And it has been enhanced with additional defenses."
He used to claim himself to be a master, and in fact he had done quite well. After fighting against the gnolls in the Stoney Highlands for many days, he had accumulated a lot of military merit points.
But now it seems that there are always higher mountains than the one you have on the other side. It was in vain that Leopard Head and I had fought with these tree people before, but up to now, the combined contribution of the two teams is less than a quarter of that of the other side.
If I can be considered a master, then what should the other party be called?
At this time, Sam also quietly slipped over and whispered: "My lord, I saw a bee man appearing in the distance, and it seems that he is monitoring us."
Is it that witch? Is she here to pick peaches? Or is she going to wait until I have no other options before I go and ask her for help?
But no matter what, don't even think about succeeding!
A series of thoughts flashed quickly through Levi's mind.
"Sam, have you been discovered by the other party?"
"No, sir. I have always been very careful."
"Okay, well done. Stay alert. If any beemen or any other team come over here, I want you to notify me immediately!"
"Yes, sir!"
He took a deep breath, then asked directly: "I do have a plan, but I can't guarantee that it will work. So, Lightforger, do you have any way to weaken its defense?"
"How sure are you?"
"About 30 to 40 percent, but if you have a way to weaken its defense, the chance of success will at least double."
The Lightforger thought for a moment, then nodded: "We can give it a try, but Levi, I want to tell you that this skill will consume a considerable amount of my experience points. This is almost a last-ditch effort. We must succeed!"
Only if he succeeds, his efforts will not be wasted, and only if he succeeds can he get enough spoils!
Consume experience points? I have never heard of such a skill. Could it be his talent?
But this is not important. What is important is that the Lightforged can really weaken the opponent's defense, and that is enough!
"Okay, don't worry. I can't guarantee anything else, but as long as you team up with me and follow my command, I will never let my teammates down, regardless of victory or defeat!"
Leopard Head, who had been looking sad, suddenly felt a little uneasy. Although no name was mentioned, why did he always feel that he was being talked about?
The Lightforger suddenly laughed: "Okay, then let's do something and keep that guy here, Arthur!"
Arthur, who was holding a sword and shield and was suspected to be a foot knight, immediately responded, then he smashed his shield with his sword and shouted at the tree people who were gradually walking away in the distance: "Hey, ugly monsters!"
The leader of the fallen treemen had no reaction to this, but the two fallen treemen following behind him were immediately enraged. They turned around and moved towards Arthur. No matter how the leader behind them shouted, they remained steadfast.
Levi suddenly found it interesting. Is this a taunting skill?
Although it was ineffective against the leader, he was able to control two level 3 treemen at such a long distance, which was quite impressive. I wonder how much the Lightforger spent to recruit them.
But that doesn’t matter. The other party is flexing his muscles, so it’s time for me to use other means.
Since it is a fallen tree man, it will naturally be restrained by the light attribute!
"Summon the Sub-Kon, specify the light attribute!"
With the flash of white light, a humanoid figure Guang Yakong, holding a sword and shield and hiding under armor, whose face could not be seen, appeared in the magic circle. He bowed his head and bowed to him: "I am here at your call. I wonder what instructions you have?"
"Wait for now."
Guang Yakong lowered his head slightly, then stood beside Levi and began to guard him, just like the other Yakongs he had summoned before. They were all very polite, and as Donna said, they habitually obeyed the orders of the strong and the wizards!
Ignoring the slightly surprised look of the Lightforger next to him, Levi quickly cast several auxiliary spells on Guang Yakong.
"Mage Armor!"
"Grease the soles of your feet!"
"Magic weapons!"
Guang Yakong can't be considered a tough and sturdy soldier. Even if their equipment has enchantments, it is just barely passable.
Therefore, he did not use it until the number of tree people was reduced, for fear that a few tree people would kill it with a few random slaps. But now, although there is still a certain degree of danger, it is at least much better than before.
Then he tilted his head back, drank a bottle of magic potion, and began to cast the spell again.
Although he was lucky enough to have summoned a third-level Guang Yakong for the first time, this opponent should not be underestimated. Moreover, Shui Yakong had given him three chances to summon Guang Yakong before, and now was the time to use them!
As the light flickered, another Guang Yakong appeared. Unfortunately, this time he was only a level 2 one, but Levi still cast three auxiliary spells on him, and turned to look at Leopard Head and Lightcaster: "You can help too."
"Okay, Boss Levi!"
Leopard Head responded first, and then cast the Barkskin spell that almost every low-level druid had.
The Lightforged One also smiled slightly, raised his hand and released the priest's magic to the two Light Yakongs one after another. He even drank a bottle of magic potion in the middle because of insufficient magic.
Gift, strengthen the upper limit of health value!
Divine grace, enhances hit rate and critical strike rate!
Secondary bull power, enhanced strength!
Coupled with Guang Yakong's own light-attribute weapons and anti-evil magic ring, their attack and defense attributes were instantly improved by more than one level. Under the influence of so many gain states, even a level 3 Guang Yakong is fully qualified to challenge a level 4 Fallen Treeman Chief!
Levi quickly glanced in the direction of the bee man Sam mentioned, and waved his hand vigorously: "Attack!"
Noticing Levi's action, the Lightforger also had some awareness, but that was not his concern now. He just put away his hammer and prepared to concentrate on praying. At the same time, he did not forget to remind Levi: "Pay attention, I can reduce the opponent's defense by 8 points, but this can only last for 32 seconds!"
After taking a look at the level 4 Lightforged displayed in the team list, Levi roughly understood what was going on. Although the cost was not low, this skill was really a magical skill for defeating BOSS. Even for the sake of this skill, he might still have the opportunity to continue cooperating with the other party in the future.
He nodded immediately: "Don't worry, I will resolve the battle in the shortest possible time!"
Maybe it was because he heard his words, or because the two brothers were out of control and even had the tendency to cross the line, the Fallen Treeman couldn't help but roar again: "Damn mages, I must put an end to the abuse of magic!"
As it exerted force with both hands, one of the few remaining tree people was thrown over. Then the desperate voice of Leopard Head rang out: "Why? Me again?"
Levi didn't even look at it. If it was a coincidence once or twice, then he would be stupid if he couldn't make a judgement after so many times.
It’s not that the Fallen Treeman Leader’s accuracy is not good enough, or at least it’s not entirely due to this reason. Another point is that the treemen he throws tend to attack his own weaknesses, and the Leopard Head’s animal troops are undoubtedly the weakest. If he is not unlucky, who will be unlucky?
