Chapter 204 Outside the Barren Valley
Following the map's guidance, Levitra and others kept approaching the barren valley, and they soon felt that there was indeed an abnormality here.
"Indeed, Tiemu, you are right. The orcs here have become much smaller. So, could it be that the Wanmo Rock here has been cleared?"
By now, players have almost summarized the content of this expansion pack. Basically, the refresh speed and number have been greatly improved, and the proportion of elites has also been increased. Even if many new players have joined, they may still not be able to kill all the orcs at the gates of their novice villages in a short period of time, because they have not yet understood why the orcs have changed this way. They only think that it was done by the system.
But Levitra didn't think so, because he had confirmed it from the indigenous people. The Wild Hammer clan believed that this was the stimulation of the power of Chaos Moon, causing a large number of fragments of Chaos Power to appear all over the world, which is what the beastmen call Wanmo Rock.
It was under their influence that ordinary beasts were quickly transformed into cruel and bloodthirsty orcs.
According to the news obtained by Levitra from the Wildhammer clan, the king of Black Stone Fort seemed to want to use this situation to train the newly born God-Selected Heroes, and then send them to gradually clear out the wild demon rocks, destroy the root of the surge in the wild, thereby greatly weakening the wild beasts and ending the chaos.
In fact, this is not the first time they have done this.
Although the beastmen are cruel and bloodthirsty, they are not enough for civilians to see the elite troops that are prepared.
Although Levitra has not confirmed it specifically, judging from the various information circulating on the forum and the tasks received by other players, at least the rulers of other order camps think so. They also want to regard the orc change as a huge training ceremony.
Of course, the rulers of the Chaos Camp have different ideas.
Like Green Skin, they are just happy that they can fight more. Although wild orcs are generally more popular than Green Skinned Chicken, they can fight very well as soon as they reach the number.
As for the undead, they were happy that they could have more fresh corpses to make their subordinates. They wanted the chaos caused by the beastmen to expand to a larger scale, and it would be better to fight with other races.
Anyway, no matter who loses and who wins, they will only make the undead tribe in the end. They can even take advantage of the opportunity to collect some rare magic materials. After all, the things that make up the Wanmo Rock are also called dimensional stone fragments, and that is the favorite of mages, especially the undead wizards!
The Moore Knight obviously thought of this, and he frowned and said, "Sir, do you think it's related to the Undead this time?"
Levitra shook his head gently: "I can't be sure, but it's always right to take the corresponding defense."
To be honest, Levitra is actually not willing to fight against the Undead, especially the High Undead. Because when he was in Moore Garden, the undead wizard who raised his hand and killed several of his subordinates in seconds gave him a deep impression.
Even though Levitra's strength has improved a lot now, his subordinates have also become stronger, but even when facing the spell he used to do, he dared not say that he was not damaged. This is different from fighting against wild orcs. After all, the other party can use magic.
When facing magic, even if it is the dark and evil undead magic, even if it does not agree with it, at least it must maintain a sense of awe.
As they kept approaching their destination, Levitra and others also discovered that the Beast Wandering Squad here was indeed much less than other places, but in terms of strength, it was quite good. The third-level army rarely appeared in the Beast Wandering Squad outside other novice villages, a horned beast warrior holding a battle axe, is very common here.
However, their military combination is too backward and too extreme. They are all melee troops and basically have no long-range units. The horned beast warriors are all aggressive troops, and in terms of defense, they are not much better than the second-level swordsmen under Levith.
Facing the powerful archer troops under Levice, and the dwarf musketeers who are as stingy as ammunition as before, they are really vulnerable, and few of them can even rush to the front alive. Naturally, they cannot show Levice their attack power that is quite powerful among the same-level troops.
After spending a little more time, Levitra and his group finally arrived at the place marked on the map, called the Barren Valley.
The overall terrain of this barren valley is similar to a gourd. The valley mouth is narrow and the interior is very wide. It is not without resources. It is just that there are no mineral resources that dwarves attach the most importance to, so it was named Barren Valley. There is no way, dwarves are so willful, who makes them too rich?
And as Levitra had expected, some creatures that were not displayed on military maps appeared here, and they have now blocked the entrance to the valley, which is about tens of meters wide.
A whirlwind of three or four meters high, mixed with a lot of sand and dust, was moving back and forth at the entrance of the valley in a very regular manner, just like life.
Looking at these scenes, Levi and the others naturally dare not make arbitrage, because it is obviously not a natural phenomenon, it must be the power of spells, or the whirlwinds themselves are living lives, just like the flowing water elements and ice elements that Levi had recruited before!
"Sir, it looks like a wind element, and it's quite advanced."
Tanato also made the same judgment. Although he had not personally contacted this elemental creature before, he had heard more or less relevant rumors. He had to admit that these advanced elemental creatures are still relatively difficult because they do not have the fatal weaknesses of ordinary creatures, and the martial arts practiced day and night are of little use to them. After all, most of the other party don't even have hands, let alone weaknesses such as heart or head.
"Well, stop first and let the archers prepare the rockets, and the dwarf musketeers prepare too." Faced with such an enemy with unknown strength, Levitra did not want the melee troops to go up and test first, because that would probably make them die directly.
Tanato immediately ordered, while Levith continued to observe the movements of the other party dozens of meters away.
Soon he discovered something was wrong.
If these creatures suspected of wind element in front of us are neutral, even if they are only a few dozen meters away, they do not take the initiative to attack Levitra and others, this can barely explain.
However, after observing for a few minutes, Levitra discovered a very disharmonious place, that is, where the wind elements pass by, the turf being blown, each time it is the same shape, then flew into the air at the same angle, and then fell to the ground with the same trajectory. This is a bit abnormal!
Since the entire valley entrance is only a few dozen meters and the wind elements are also very fast, they have been turning back and forth dozens of times within a few minutes, but their movements are exactly the same every time, which naturally makes Levith a little suspicious.
"John, let the archers take the rockets and choose any enemy to perform a volley, and prepare the melee troops."
Although as the battle continues to escalate, the 2nd level archers have become less and less effective, and their attack power is far from keeping up with the 3rd level dwarf musketeers, they also have the advantage, that is, their maintenance costs are much lower than those of the Dwarf musketeers, so Leviz doesn't want to give up on them yet.
Of course, when the half-elves village is officially established and everything is on track and has sufficient funds, Levith may not think so.
With the shout of John the hunter, the rocket archers under his command immediately launched the shooting, but beyond his expectations, their shooting did not produce any effect. The rockets disappeared out of thin air the moment they hit the enemy, as if they were directly swallowed by the wind elements!
Hunter John immediately looked at Levitra with some anxiety: "Sir..."
Levitra waved his hand indifferently, and even smiled on his face: "It's okay, John, this is not your fault. In fact, when we got here, you should have felt something wrong, so let's omit the process now and reveal the answer directly!"
At the end of the day, Levitra couldn't help but shout out loud.
Of course, he was not directed at John the hunter, or any of his subordinates, but at the entrance of the valley, where the possible enemies were!
"Does the guy who deserves to be cursed, even if I gave up fighting for that position and fled here, he still refused to let me go, and even hired you cold-blooded and ruthless killers from the Dog of War?"
With a slightly hoarse male voice, the wind elements that were originally wandering at the entrance of the valley suddenly drifted away with the wind. Then, as if a curtain was opened, some human warriors dressed similar to ancient Arabs appeared in the sight of Levith and others.
In front of them were some plain wooden walls and horse-repelling horses that were obviously not built, and there were even some flames that had not been completely extinguished, indicating where the attacks of Levi’s rocket archers had just gone.
And behind, some simple wooden houses and swaying figures could be seen. It seems that the other party's members are not all members of the other party.
But the most conspicuous thing is in the air behind them. It was a muscle-strong man with blue skin. The most eye-catching thing is him, or its lower body, which is a body made up of hazy mist, without legs, but just a large ball. It is like the god of lamp described in the fairy tale of 1,000 nights!
Standing under the God of Lantern stood a middle-aged man wrapped in a white turban, wearing a white robe and holding a staff. At this moment, he was looking at Levitra with anger on his face, and it was obvious that he was the one who had just spoken.
Levitra quickly glanced at the other party's troops, and he immediately felt relieved.
There is no doubt that this middle-aged man who is suspected of a mage and the troops he led are all from Arabi, further south from the mercenary kingdom. It is near the death desert and brings sand every day with wind and sand, so they dress up in this outfit so that the wind and sand will not pour into their mouths.
Moreover, through observation, Levitra knew that the human-type subordinates of the other side were not very powerful, and they were basically level 1 or level 2 troops.
Arabi is at least an initial optional race in the order camp. Although not many people are willing to choose because of their ugly appearance, there is still some information on the forum.
The only thing worth noting is the other party himself, and the big blue man who looked very powerful floating in the air.
Based on the words the other party just said, Levitra also roughly inferred why the other party appeared here, which was nothing more than a dispute of interests, and he was the loser in the struggle. Now he mistakenly thought that he and others were just killers sent by those winners. A rather cliché story, with no freshness at all.
It is easy to understand why the other party thinks that they are from war dogs, that is, killers from mercenary countries. After all, it is difficult to see a joint force composed of dwarves, humans, semi-elves, and even ogres elsewhere.
Unfortunately, the other party's intelligence was still a little behind. He didn't know that there are now special people like God-Selected Heroes in this world!
"I think you may have misunderstood that we are not killers, nor are we from war dogs, we are just for the barren valley itself, maybe we can talk about it."
If possible, Levitra actually wanted to try to talk to the other party. After all, whether it was the illusion at the entrance of the valley or the big blue man in the air now, it means that the other party is not an ordinary person. And everyone is in the same order camp, and he has a serious conflict with the other party for the time being.
But Levitra also knew that this was probably just a delusion, because now he has obviously regarded this place as a base for long-term development, otherwise he would not have built walls here, refused horses and wooden houses here.
Sure enough, after hearing Levitra's words, the middle-aged man became even more angry: "Do you want to use tricks to make us leave our defense and leave here? I won't be fooled by the same thing for the second time!"
Speaking of this, the middle-aged man suddenly waved his staff forward: "God of the Wind Lantern, obey the orders of my Arabian warlock Aziz, attack and kill these despicable killers!"
With his orders, the big blue man in the air suddenly roared, and then accompanied by the raging wind, it rushed directly from the air towards Levi and others. At the same time, the Arab soldiers also moved quickly. They abandoned the fortifications that had been built less than half and instead launched an active attack on Levi and others.
"Okay, it seems that you still have to fight. Tanato, Wames, and Temu, the offensive will be left to you. If it is not necessary, I hope you can save that guy's life. As for the defense," Levitra turned to him, a dwarf warrior with a striking red beard, a shield in one hand and an ax in the other, and a firm look.
He was the biggest gain after Levitra asked the Moore Knight to recruit soldiers. He was a dwarf warrior who was also a third-level elite like Temu.
And unlike the two-axe fighter Tiemu, who specializes in attack, although the opponent holds an axe in his hand, it is more because of the dwarf's habits. Eighty percent of the opponent's strength is on that shield. He is a dwarf iron guard who specializes in defense, and has extra resistance to magic attacks.
And when he joined Levitra, he also brought 5 brothers of the same profession, but his brothers were weaker than him. They were all ordinary third-level troops, but at this stage it was enough.
"Burke Flavin, can I trust you?"
"Yes, sir, you can trust me!" Unlike Tiemu, who looked a little unscrupulous, the Dwarf Iron Guard answered Levice very seriously and solemnly.
"Very good. The big blue guy who was rushing towards us in the air will be handed over to you and your brothers. I will let the mixed-race hunter Dahl, guard Davi, and the dwarf musketeers help you."
"Yes, sir!"
The big blue man named the God of Wind Lantern took only two seconds to cross at least fifty or sixty meters and came to the heads of Levitra and others.
Just when Levitra thought it was about to pounce on and launch an attack, the Fierce Wind Lantern God stayed in mid-air and made a move similar to inhaling. Levitra suddenly felt something was wrong. This guy didn't seem to use a fist as a weapon!
“Hohuh!”
With a howling wind, dozens of light blue wind blades flew out from the wide open mouth of the Wind Lantern God. At the same time, the movements in its hands did not stop. Soon several of the same wind blades formed and threw them at Levith. It seemed that it also knew who was the most important person in the team, or that this was the order of the Arabian warlock named Aziz.
Although Levitra tried hard to dodge and his subordinates tried their best to intercept, Levitra was still hit five or six times in a row by the opponent.
But after seeing clearly his injury, Levitra was stunned for a moment, because the opponent's attack looked very fierce, but he didn't lose a few blood in total. The opponent seemed to be just a simple attack speed!
However, after taking a look at the situation of his subordinates, Levitra changed the situation again, because after his subordinates suffered the attack from the other party, the situation was not very good. The only ones that didn't look so embarrassed were the third-level elite iron guard Burke Yanxu and his brothers. Even the third-level guard Davi and the mixed-race hunter Dahl were not very good...
Why is this?
Levitra's brain was running rapidly, and then after seeing the light green wind blade of the Fierce Wind Lamp God, he quickly had a idea. This guy used magic attacks, no, strictly speaking, it was more likely to be a mixed damage of physics and magic, so the dwarves who were born with magic resistance would be in a better state and basically no losses themselves.
Thanks to the equipment on his body, Levitra not only has outstanding physical defense, but also has 5 points of full magic resistance, which is enough to offset 5 points of magic damage!
Seeing that Tanato was smooth all the way, the ordinary Arab soldiers under the other party had almost no resistance. It was not until the other party used magic to summon several black-brown stone men that temporarily stopped Tanato's advance, and Levith completely relieved.
He immediately raised the spear in his hand and was eager to try: "The melee troops retreated and be on guard. Leave this big blue man to me first, and the long-range troops fired at me with all their strength!"
The opponent flew high in mid-air, and the melee troops could only passively be beaten, and the long-range troops were difficult to hit the flexible opponent, which was really not easy to deal with, so let's change it.
Chapter completed!
