Volume 3 Takeoff Chapter 310 Giant Hydra
Suifeng and his friends on the other side also started shouting and yelling because they soon made some discoveries.
Not all the buildings in the old black dragon's lair were destroyed. They found a kobold camp. Does that mean they may also be able to obtain the heart of the village here?
No, judging by the scope and development of the black dragon's lair, this is probably no longer the heart of the village, but the heart of the town.
Levi took a look and didn't take it too seriously. Arthas cut the Black Dragon's Nest in half with one sword. The chance of that thing surviving was really low.
It is a blessing that a few small buildings have survived in the corners, so it is better not to have too high expectations.
Signaling his subordinates to recover first, he began to sort out the spoils obtained in this battle.
In general, since the average strength of the enemies is too poor, there are too many skeletons and zombies, and because the battle ends too quickly, the number of enemies actually killed by them is not too many, and the experience points gained are very small.
But there were also a few that advanced. For example, two of the ogres became Ogre Warriors and became more resilient.
Although the spoils were not numerous, they contained quite a few of relatively high value items.
In addition to a total of 5 fragments of the Hero's Spirit, the vampire from the Vanzo family who was killed by Elegy dropped a set of blue-quality Blood and Glory Armor.
The effect of the suit is to increase magic resistance and give ordinary physical attacks an 8% life-sucking effect.
Due to the high requirements for attributes and levels, currently only Elegy and Alduin in the team can use it, so Levi directly gave it to Alduin.
The set of equipment he originally had was considered good, but it was just good. There was still a slight gap compared to this set. Now with his own abilities, his ability to continue fighting will become even stronger.
Next are two types of magic. The first one is acceleration. Although it is only a level 3 magic, it can increase both movement speed and attack speed at the same time.
In Levi's opinion, its value to warriors is several times stronger than Bear's Endurance and the like. He used one copy himself and gave the other to Janet, who is now a full-time assistant.
Next is the tier 2 magic - Magic Dagger Protection, which consumes a pair of daggers and a certain amount of magic to assist in defending against physical attacks from the enemy, including melee attacks such as swords, and ranged attacks such as bows and crossbows.
For low-level wizards, this is a good auxiliary magic. Since Levi himself no longer needs it, he let Sally learn it.
This girl's magic is almost all focused on attack, so he always has to worry about her survivability.
Finally, the real highlight comes from the spoils of war in Shadow of War.
A blue quality battle treasure - Centaur Battle Axe, in addition to +2 attack, it can also increase the health limit of the troops under your command by 10, which is very practical.
Because the others basically already had someone of similar level, Levi put it away for the time being, planning to hand it over to Zhou Miyin after he returned.
A dragon eye ring, a green campaign treasure, can improve knowledge and leadership by 1 point each, and increase the leadership limit by 50. It is also part of a certain combination treasure.
This was given to Janet, who is currently commanding priests and druids. Improving knowledge can increase their spell power and magic recovery speed, which is just right for her.
The last one is the special lance once used by Shadow of War, which is also the most precious and an epic weapon.
Giant Hydra Lance (Purple - Epic): Attack 15-30;
Effect 1, HP +125;
Effect 2, Colossus, provides 2.5% attack power based on maximum health (up to a maximum of 25);
Effect 3, Hydra Cleave, causes 30% split attack to all enemies within the attack range;
Effect 4: Strengthen Cleave. When effect 3 is triggered, an additional 8 magic points will be consumed to strengthen the effect of this split attack to 45%.
Effect 5, Giant, can expand the weapon up to 3 times. Every time it expands, the attack power increases by 5-10, the strength requirement increases by 5, and the attack speed decreases by 15%.
Requirements: Strength 23, Agility 12, Level 12/Tier 6.
Limited professions: Any combat profession.
(It is said that this weapon was made from the spine of a Hydra, but unfortunately it did not inherit the Hydra's venom)
The weapon is certainly very good, and may even be the strongest weapon Levi has ever seen or heard of.
When the giant effect is maximized, the attack power will be as high as 60 points, and there is also a splitting effect. It is very accurate to kill the mobs. No wonder the Shadow of War was so powerful before.
Unfortunately, no one can use it for the time being, because the only three people in the team who can use spears are Lisadilan, Zhou Miyin and Simon, but their strength is still far from enough.
And in Levi's opinion, the most suitable creature for this weapon might be some kind of creature with strong inherent strength but slow attack speed, such as ogres or minotaurs, which can naturally ignore the negative effects of the giant.
Unfortunately, the strongest ogre warrior under his command is only level 4, and is still far from being able to truly use this weapon.
Then Levi asked his subordinates to select the other spoils and gave some to Pamela and the others.
They had fought together before and killed a certain number of enemies, so it was only logical that they should have their share.
Although Pamela refused at first, saying that they were here to help and could not take these things, Levi would not give up for this reason. He still wanted to have long-term cooperation with the Moon Singer, so naturally he would not take advantage of the other party for free.
He packed the remaining things into a space ring, and planned to give them to Cai Jin later together with the architectural drawings that Chen Zhui gave him.
In the previous battles, Cai Jin and her sisters' harpies had acted as vanguards and cannon fodder. Today, they were hit head-on by Michaela's Sun Flame Explosion. Compared to the first time they fought with him, the number of harpies now is only one in ten.
But despite this, she didn't say a word when she went to chase the enemy just now. It was reasonable for him to give her some reward.
Then Levi took out the dragon fang he got from the old black dragon and tried to transform it into a dragon fang soldier.
It’s true that the old black dragon does have some abilities. Even with just a few teeth, he was able to successfully transform them into level 5 Black Dragon Tooth Soldiers.
In addition to some basic combat skills, they also have two special skills. One is that they are good at swamp warfare, which is quite effective but less versatile.
The other is the black corrosion attack, which can cause acid attacks and corrode the opponent's armor. This is much more practical.
I believe that when he hands it over to the Sun Knight later, he will definitely pay a lot of gold coins for it.
The Sun Knight can always acquire gold coins through various means, so apart from Levi himself, he should be considered one of the top richest people among all the God-chosen heroes.
Unfortunately, many things cannot be bought with money alone, and require corresponding reputation or military merit.
Or perhaps the few gold coins he had were still not enough in front of the truly powerful indigenous people, which resulted in him being unable to successfully convert all of his wealth into powerful combat power.
But this is a good thing for Levi, as the Sun Knight himself can consume a considerable portion of his spoils, saving him a lot of trouble.
Alduin, who was standing next to him, also ran over excitedly to watch at first, but soon he shook his head and sighed, because this time the Dragonfang Soldiers were still in the evil camp.
He had always wanted to lead the Dragon Fang soldiers into battle again. Although he was a combat hero and had no bonus to the troops, he wanted that awe-inspiring feeling. What a pity...
Levi couldn't help but feel a little amused: "Alduin, if you really want dragon fang soldiers from the good and lawful camps, why not send a message to your Bronze Dragonborn Island and bring over the dragon fangs shed by dragons or dragon beasts."
He still remembered that Alduin had said before that there was an island belonging to their dragon race in an overseas area about 50 miles away from Bitao Village, and there was also a level 15 bronze dragon hero on it.
Levi didn't have time and no boat before, so he didn't go, and now, he doesn't want to go.
Because he noticed that the giant dragons brought by the Dragon Prince had been fighting in their dragon form from beginning to end and had not transformed into human form.
In addition, it is said that the unique dragon taming technique of the Kingdom of Caledor can tame the five-colored evil dragons and make them obedient, even causing a serious shift in their camps. Moreover, the elves have redefined their strength levels, such as sun dragons, moon dragons, star dragons and the like.
This made him doubt again that all the dragons that were successfully tamed by the Kingdom of Caledor might have paid something for it.
For example, the ability to transform freely, the ability to speak, and even wisdom.
Imrik has a brass dragon under his command, which is the most talkative and talkative of all the dragons, but from beginning to end, Levi never heard the other party say a word, which is enough to explain part of the story.
The dragon's attitude towards the high elves will definitely become very subtle because of this.
The fight between the five metallic dragons and the five colored evil dragons was also an internal issue within the race. Just like the Elf God King - Corellon, he always believed that the Dark Elves and the Drow Elves were still part of the Elves.
Now that the evil dragons have been tamed and turned into idiots with only brute force left, will the metal dragons really ignore them completely? I'm afraid not.
So he didn't want to go to other people's territory and cause trouble.
Of course, the main reason was that the place was not attractive enough for him.
According to Alduin, he is probably the strongest person on the entire island except for the bronze dragon hero.
Ordinary dragon warriors are basically level 4, which sounds good, but Levi has a military rank bonus over the Silver Light Guards who are also level 4. In a one-on-one head-on duel, the dragon warrior may not be the final winner.
Even many dragonborns with thin bloodlines may not be stronger and have less potential than ordinary humans or elves.
The dragon bloodline may not always bring all benefits, it may also bring defects or even deformities.
But they have a very high opinion of themselves and don't like to work for foreigners. So why should Levi waste his time facing these high-minded but incompetent people?
Alduin didn't know that Levi had such a low opinion of their race. Perhaps even if he knew, he wouldn't be able to refute it.
He was just lost in thought now. With his status in the tribe, he could easily get dozens of dragonborn to hang out with him, even if he couldn't say how many there were.
There may not be too many dragon teeth. There is only one pure-blooded giant dragon on the island. Unless its teeth are knocked out in a fight with an enemy, it may not replace its teeth for dozens or hundreds of years...
While he was lost in thought, Levi began to organize the space ring, integrating those things that were not used temporarily into the same space ring and handing them over to the Sun Knight later.
Sometimes the Sun Knight would buy them with his own money and use them himself or distribute them to his younger brothers in the guild. Sometimes he would trade with other public households or merchants to help Levi exchange some usable magic, equipment, etc.
But Levi didn't care about the specific details. He just wanted to get the money in the end to repay the debt he owed for recruiting the night elves. Anyway, he was not worried that the Sun Knight would cheat him.
Soon, a series of disappointed sighs were heard from Suifeng. They had successfully dug up the core location of the black dragon's lair, but unfortunately everything inside had been completely destroyed, and the heart of the town naturally could no longer exist.
However, Levi looked around a few times, then rose into the air and took a look around, and felt that the place chosen by the old black dragon was still very good.
Surrounded by swamps, with only a few passages for entry and exit, this place is still very suitable for defense if the enemy does not have an air force.
In the Underdark, apart from vampires and harpies, there seems to be no larger-scale flying troops.
Even the drow, who are relatively powerful in the Underdark, seem to have only a small number of harpies and very few manticores, while the dwarves have a small number of helicopters.
As for other races, they are even worse in this regard. So it seems that this place is indeed a suitable place to serve as a stronghold.
However, Levi had no idea about this for the time being. He didn't know how much time and effort it would take just to clean up these ruins. Then rebuilding the village on the ruins and developing it bit by bit would be too troublesome.
If he has this much time, wouldn’t it be better for him to directly attack the alien races such as the Drow and seize their territory?
But then he thought, if he gave it to the big crocodiles under Sobek, they probably wouldn't refuse, right?
Although Sobek's safety was guaranteed to a certain extent after joining the elven pantheon, he would definitely not have much say in the future if he did not strive for progress.
The gods are also very realistic with each other. Unless they are goddesses like Lilith and Yuegong, who have strong backgrounds and powerful backers, in most cases it still depends on hard power.
Occupying more swamps, allowing the crocodile people to multiply and grow, developing more believers, and improving his own divine power and godhood level must be Sobek's next goal.
It’s just that those big crocodiles are obviously not a race that is good at construction. If this place is completely handed over to them, I don’t know how long it will take to officially build it. Do they need my help again?
Suifeng and the others noticed his actions, and suddenly their hearts moved. They looked at each other and they understood what each other meant.
Although Levi's face was full of disgust, they did not!
So they quickly proposed this idea to Levi. They wanted to occupy this place, but they couldn't always follow Levi around, right?
Levi was naturally overjoyed and expressed his full support.
In fact, he was a little worried about how to accommodate Suifeng and the others.
If he were to encounter a major war, he would indeed need strength from them, because his troops were all elite and lacked sufficient cannon fodder.
But if it is a daily battle, the enemy may only have two or three hundred people, while our side has thousands of people attacking together, which would be a huge waste of combat power.
Now Suifeng and his team have decided to develop here for a long time, which is a good choice. There is never a shortage of enemies in the Underdark.
After this place develops, it can also exchange resources with many villages such as Bitao Village and Blood Glory.
Adding on what's happening with Sobek, this is simply the best of both worlds!
In order to encourage them, Levi took out some resources on the spot, intending to use them as their initial development fund.
He then suggested that he could contact the crocodile people under Sobek and try to get them to build a temple of Sobek here, and provide some recruitment qualifications for big crocodiles and crocodile people, which would definitely help to better guard this base.
Suifeng and the others would naturally not refuse. For the chosen heroes of God, if there was a temple in the territory, it would be beneficial in 99% of cases, unless they were tomb robbers like the Lich God Velsharoon, or thieves like the God of Thieves.
With Levi's support, they were more motivated. Not only were the golems digging the ground, but several earth-based mages also began to help, wanting to rebuild the place as soon as possible.
Although the process will certainly be very difficult, when playing games, there must be a goal, right?
Just like Master resolutely decided to rush to Zhendan Dynasty in order to create a stronger golem, as long as they have a stable base, what does it matter if they are a little tired!
After working for a while, Cai Jin happened to come back with her troops. Seeing how hard they were working, she roughly understood the situation .
To be honest, she was somewhat envious. Their current village was given to them by the Sun Knight. It was small and shabby. It was fine for short-term residence, but obviously not suitable for long-term development.
She didn't complain out loud, but from the way she looked around frequently, Levi could roughly guess what she was thinking.
He first handed the space ring he had prepared to the other party, and then he glanced at Lucia who was doing nothing: "Cai Jin, you don't have to be too envious. Let's go attack the vampires of the 13 families tomorrow and seize their village for you to use as your base. How about that?"
Cai Jin, who was looking at the space ring with a little surprise, suddenly smiled brighter: "Thank you very much, Levi. Being friends with you may be the best choice I have ever made!"
