Things developed more smoothly than Levi expected, because on the next day, the news that Bann believers decided to attack this place was suddenly everywhere in Silver Town.
He conducted transactions with many merchants here yesterday, updated more or less equipment for his subordinates, and converted many precious stones and other valuables into gold coins. Then he inquired about some information, so there is no news for the time being. go back.
But he didn't get any particularly outstanding equipment. After all, the local chosen heroes were not fools. If there were any good things, they would have gotten them first.
In his opinion, there are only two things that are outstanding.
A green quality battle treasure - Dragon Eye Ring, with +1 attack and defense each, and is a set with the previous Dragon Eye Ring and Dragon Wing Robe.
Unfortunately, it wasn't a mistake. For this thing, he entered into a small competition with several God-chosen heroes, and ended up spending more than a hundred gold coins.
Although the attributes it provides are very low, it is still wanted by others because of the information in the remarks.
At the same time, Levi also vaguely noticed that among the selected heroes who were bidding against him, there should be trustworthy ones, but he didn't care too much, because he really wanted this thing, and he didn't lack the money.
At worst, the next time you encounter the opponent in the wild, just kill that guy and his subordinates together.
Anyway, he has already memorized the opponent's appearance and name. He is a dark guard from the evil camp. Even if there is no such thing, it is very reasonable to beat him by himself, right?
Then there was a silver dragon fang. After some manufacturing, a level 5 dragon fang soldier appeared behind Alduin.
This is a real dragon tooth soldier made from giant dragon teeth, and its combat effectiveness is 99% better than the previous dragon tooth soldiers.
In addition to the comprehensive improvement in all aspects of attributes, it also inherits some of the characteristics of the silver dragon, including the camp being locked to lawful good, dark vision, attacks that can cause cold damage, etc.
But Li Wei didn't care too much, because a real lair of dragon warriors had been established in Oostak City. Does he still care about such inferior products?
As for those openly sold slaves, Levi looked at some, but he found that the decorative significance of the slaves was far greater than the actual use. They really only looked at the face, figure and racial rarity, and almost no strength.
It can only be said that the aborigines may like it very much, but it is not suitable for a God-chosen hero like Levi who pursues combat effectiveness.
Originally, he planned to spend more time today, trying to visit more places to see if he could find some suitable targets, but he never expected that things would ferment so quickly, and the results would be immediate.
For a time, people in the town were panicked, and even commercial and trade activities were greatly affected.
And this was not just a simple rumor. Soon in the morning, many merchants and caravans rushed into the city, claiming that they had been robbed by the Benn Church.
The other party not only said some dirty words that provoked the Wealth Church, but also said very frankly that this may be the first time today, but it will definitely not be the last.
From today on, as long as any businessman dares to approach Silver Town or cooperate with the Church of Wealth, they will dare to rob it.
Now the atmosphere in the town is getting even worse.
For a long time, the reason why Baiyin Town's business has been so developed is entirely because the Church of Wealth has the ability to ensure the safety of businessmen's lives and property.
But now that Benn Church has been robbed openly, what are the businessmen doing here?
But in comparison, the 20 or 30 God-chosen heroes staying in the town were caught up in a little carnival, because when there were conflicts between the indigenous people, it was an opportunity for them to make a fortune.
In particular, the Wealth Church is very wealthy and has never been stingy in this regard.
Li Wei was naturally in a good mood, but even though he was happy, he also felt a little weird, because it happened too fast, as if there was some special force in the dark, pushing the boat along.
Could it be the fault of Cyric Church?
As the Prince of Lies, his priesthood includes strife, lies, conspiracy, fraud, murder, death and the dead, many of which are good at instigating others to fight, so that he can reap the benefits.
Even one of his special professions is called Conflict Instigator, so it is completely understandable that his followers are so vigorously helping to promote it.
What's more, if the two sects, Bane and Woking, fight fiercely, Cyric's followers will naturally have a greater advantage in the subsequent battle.
Even followers of the God of Thieves may be involved.
Although the responsibilities of these two gods are very different, the way their followers behave is exactly the same. They are like poisonous snakes or rats in the gutter, biting you when you are not paying attention.
In addition, the God of Thieves, Mask, has a grudge against the Church of Wealth, so it would be abnormal for them not to get involved.
So Li Wei decisively used special magic props to send a message to Bitao Village and Oostak City, asking them to send hero-level units and lead part of the army to help.
He had previously recruited a large number of troops in Black Castle, but because he and his heroic subordinates lacked leadership, they did not bring all their strength here. But now he is keenly aware that it is time for them to dispatch.
Then he led his men out of the tavern, preparing to gather some more information with the local heroes he had just met last night.
Since the departure of the Red Brotherhood, the Church of Fortune has successively recruited some God-chosen heroes as their replacements to do some shady and dirty work for them.
At first, because the chosen heroes were less powerful, the effect was not good, but now that they have grown up, they are easier to use than the previous Red Brotherhood.
There are even a few guys who have raised their reputation level in the Church of Fortune. It is said that as long as they have enough financial resources, they can provide loans or deposits in other villages in the name of the Church of Fortune at the cost of paying 25% of their income.
.
For the Church of Wealth, most things can be purchased, including this kind of agency authority.
However, they have not taken action yet, not only because doing so requires paying a large deposit, but also because in this world full of dangers, you really have no way of knowing whether those who borrowed money from you in the morning will still be able to do so in the afternoon.
Come back alive.
The Church of Wealth has a big business, can afford to pay, and has a strict review mechanism. They will only lend money to the other party if they believe that the other party has the ability to repay the money, but ordinary God-chosen heroes simply cannot afford it.
As for deposits, because depositors need to pay 10% of the amount as a storage fee, this is acceptable to some businessmen in big towns, but it is not easy to handle in small villages. Almost no one is willing to spend that wasted money.
The reason why Li Wei knew so clearly was because one of them told him that if Li Wei was willing to spend some money, he could help apply and obtain this qualification in advance.
In the Church of Wealth, money is supreme. The indigenous people firmly believe in this, and the God-chosen heroes immediately adapted to this set of rules and gradually carried them forward.
Levi declined at the time, but he felt that this set of things could actually be of some use.
He can open a pawn shop, so that even if the person is gone, he can still confiscate the other person's things. It would be a bit troublesome to exchange the things for money, but it won't be a total loss.
But in that case, he wouldn't have to use the name of Goddess Watkin to do it.
The priesthood of the goddess Lilith includes wealth, but high elves generally have no shortage of money, and every household lives as well as a small human noble, so she has hardly publicized it in this direction before.
But if this kind of thing is done in her name, it should still have some effect. He can set up a pilot in his city, promote it if it works, and abandon it if it doesn't.
But that was what happened next. He now wanted to confirm the Wealth Church's intentions as soon as possible so that Shudun, Chen Zui of the End Times, and the three Amazon sisters could all take action as soon as possible.
Not long after he left the house, he saw the outlaw Zhang San.
Seeing the excited look on the other party's face, he knew that the other party must have received relevant information. He had to admit that this guy was indeed very well-informed.
After seeing Li Wei, Zhang San was also very excited, because he had already learned about Li Wei's general strength, and in the upcoming war, he could unite more allies, and naturally it would be possible to receive larger attacks.
Task.
After a simple communication, Li Wei soon learned that Zhang San still had several friends in the city. Although the Church of Fortune had cut off contact with the Red Brotherhood, it did not prevent them from working for each other in their own name, so he
How could he come here so quickly.
At this time, the slightly urgent bell rang, and then a magical message echoed in most of Silver Town, which was the mobilization of war launched by the Church of Fortune.
Faced with the repeated provocations from Benn Church, they could no longer bear it, so they were now officially declaring war on Benn Church and taking the initiative to launch an attack to seize supplies for those merchants.
Of course, because the Church of Fortune itself has almost no formal military organization, and most of them are hired, so in this foreign war, they also mobilized mercenaries, including indigenous people and God-chosen heroes, to launch the attack together.
The strength of the Church of Fortune itself will join the battle at the most critical moment (or after the dust has settled). After all, they still need to guard against the sneak attacks of the two evil churches of Cyric and Mask.
After the work is completed, in addition to the Wealth Church being willing to pay a large amount of money as a reward, the businessmen will also receive corresponding rewards. In short, they will never be disappointed.
Since the main troops of the Benn Church are entrenched in the town, there are also more than a dozen villages around, as well as many resource points, God-given buildings, etc. that belong to them, and there are also God-chosen heroes as minions.
Therefore, the Church of Fortune will issue multiple different tasks at the same time and assign them to different mercenaries to complete.
If they are able to capture the opponent's town during the war, they will receive generous rewards. For specific information, they can go to the door of Fortune Church to learn more.
Hearing this, Li Wei and Zhang San were both a little excited, but the reasons for their excitement were different.
Zhang San did it because of the reward promised by the other party, but Li Wei did it because the scale of the war was larger than he imagined, and they had more opportunities to fish in troubled waters!
"Li Wei, what do you think, do you want to join forces?" Zhang San confirmed to Li Wei again.
Li Wei nodded without hesitation: "Of course, but for the small tasks in the early stage, we should go separately. If we encounter a strong enemy, we will join forces."
Zhang San did not refuse, because he also had several friends, and their combined strength was in the thousands. If Li Wei was added, just by attacking ordinary small villages, no matter how even the spoils would be, everyone would not be able to share it.
Something.
It would be better to divide the work first and then join forces when we encounter a strong enemy.
"Okay, it's settled, I'll take the first step!"
Soon Li Wei also accepted several missions, and then he discovered that the theme of the Fortune Church's battle was very different from the previous aboriginal forces.
They do not pay special attention to attacking villages, resource points or god-given buildings. Apart from the opponent's town - Backwater Town, what they pay most attention to is the heads of many members of the Benn Church.
From ordinary believers to fanatics, to priests and guardian warriors, etc., each level has a clearly marked price, and the price is unusually high, almost equivalent to one-third of the price of recruiting them.
If you can kill the leader of the Guardian Knights - Mark the Conqueror, or his chief priest - George Jim, you will be rewarded with a one-time reward of 500 gold coins.
If you can hand over the intact Backwater Town to them, you can even receive a gift of up to 10,000 gold coins, and the reputation of the Church of Fortune will be directly upgraded to respect, and you will receive corresponding privileges.
No wonder so many God-chosen heroes are willing to work for it, because the Church of Fortune is indeed generous!
However, the last mission is a bit of a fool. Even if there is a hero chosen by God who can successfully capture and occupy the Backwater Town, 99% of them will not hand it over.
Not to mention the value of Backwater Town itself, the many treasures in its warehouses and armories alone are probably more than 10,000 gold coins, right?
With such a sigh, Levi immediately passed the information to his subordinates who were still staying in the village, including Stump and the three Amazon sisters.
A plan is a plan, and he doesn't want to make less money than he should. Anyway, the Church of Wealth is a big dog, and he can gather as much wool as he can.
He is not sure whether Chen Zhui will come in the end of the world, because the beastmen really attract hatred on human territory.
But everyone else, including the Amazons, will definitely come as promised.
After all, the reason why they occupied that village was just to have a temporary place to stay and find a reason to fight with the original owner.
Now they have the opportunity to participate in a larger-scale battle, how could they refuse?
Since the journey was not particularly far, Li Wei met his subordinates and allies somewhere in the wild more than an hour later.
Except for Doomsday Chen Zui, everyone else came, and the Amazons simply ransacked the small village and ran away with all kinds of resources.
At the end of the day, Chen Zhui wanted to look for an opportunity to see if he could take revenge on the enemies who attacked his village yesterday, so he didn't come.
Li Wei didn't care. Even if he didn't come, with his current strength, dealing with the ordinary ten or eight God-chosen heroes would be just like playing games.
Don't talk about anything else, just talk about his own magic. If you put a flaming head on it, ordinary enemies will melt as quickly as snow under the sun.
Facing level 5 magic, even the Silver Guard, a unit that specifically emphasizes magic resistance, can't stand it, let alone other ordinary units.
If you add his summoned creatures, as long as you are more careful, before his magic is really exhausted, there is nothing you can do against him no matter how many low- and mid-level troops there are.
This is the power of high-level mage, a power that other combat professions cannot match.
After sharing some relevant information, they headed straight for their destination, which was a small village relatively close to Baiyin Town.
Although Bane's sect is not as rich as the Church of Wealth, they still have dozens of God-chosen heroes who have joined them, and their combat capabilities are not weak, so they still have to be careful.
However, when they arrived, they found that the flag belonging to the Church of Fortune had been planted at the entrance of the village, and other God-chosen heroes had already arrived first.
According to the previous requirements of the Church of Fortune, this is their way of distinguishing themselves from each other.
Since the troops of several nearby forces, except for the core priests, etc., are not particularly recognizable, we can only use flags.
Although it sounds very simple and seems to be easy to be cracked by others, basically there is no need to worry about the Bann Church using small tricks, because under normal circumstances, they don't bother to do this at all.
Bane is a god who symbolizes tyranny, fear, hatred and strife. Only by being upright and letting the enemy understand that the suffering they are suffering is caused by Bane's followers will the enemy have fear and hatred and be better able.
Strengthen Bane's power.
Of course, this is what the people in the Wealth Church think so.
But there is not only the church of Bane nearby, but also the churches of the two evil gods Cyric and Mask.
Li Wei felt that since the Fortune Church made so much money, it shouldn't be so stupid, and he couldn't even see this.
The greater possibility is that to them, these things don't actually matter.
Because their target has never been these small villages, but the backwater town of the Bann sect and the heads of their important figures.
Even if Cyric and the others really plan to fish in troubled waters, the people who die will definitely not be those from the Church of Fortune who are still in Silver Town, but the mercenaries who go out.
For Li Wei, it actually didn't matter, because except for Zhang San, who was barely trustworthy, their team would not trust anyone easily, so naturally they would not give the other party a chance to fish in troubled waters.
But no matter what, it seemed that while Levi was waiting for Shudun and the others, the other God-chosen heroes were really working hard.
It doesn't matter, he doesn't believe that everyone is so efficient, so just move on to the next goal.
Then they discovered that four or five places in a row were all like this. Even the fences and arrow towers in the villages did not have much damage.
This time, not only Li Wei, but even Shudun, who was relatively slow, felt something was wrong.
For this to happen, either the attacking party has completely overwhelmed the other party, or the other party has not resisted at all.
The former is simply impossible. Bane's side also has dozens of God-chosen heroes to help, and the natives themselves also have thousands of elite troops.
After asking several groups of people one after another, Li Wei was able to completely confirm that the other party's resistance was very weak. Most of the time, it was as if they had voluntarily given up on these villages and resource points, so they were allowed to occupy them smoothly.
What else could be the reason for the other party to take the initiative to pay such a price? It can only be that the other party wants more!
Sure enough, just as they were about to head to the next target and confirm again, Donna, who was on top of the Sky Slayer, suddenly shouted in slight surprise: "Levi, look in the direction of Silver Town!"
Li Wei turned around immediately, and then he saw the blazing flames that were clearly visible even from dozens of miles away.
I don’t know what methods the Benn Church used, but Silver Town, which has become empty due to the dispatch of a large number of mercenaries, must be under siege by a large number of troops at this moment.
No wonder these mercenaries fought so smoothly, because the opponent's main force had already gone to ambush near Baiyin Town without knowing how.
Even among the mercenaries hired by the Church of Fortune, there may be traitors.
The reward from the Wealth Church is nothing more than a charity, but if they grab it themselves, they will definitely get more gold coins!
"Brother Levi, what should we do?"
"Levi, should we continue the attack and seize the opportunity to capture some small villages, or should we go back for rescue?"
In addition to the open tree stump and the anaconda, Donna and others also looked at him, waiting for his latest order.
In fact, Li Wei was also considering this issue, but the other mercenaries set off more than an hour earlier than them. Even if they continued to move forward, they might not really gain anything.
It is even possible to run into the regular army of Ben Church. If they attack Silver Town, they will never send only the God-chosen heroes.
But if we go back for rescue, we won't be able to get there right away after traveling dozens of miles.
More importantly, he didn't like the Church of Wealth, so why did he bother to save them? Is it just for the little gold coins that the other party might give in return?
With his mind racing, Levi resolutely made a decision that almost no one could have imagined: "Let's go to Cyric's Thorn Town."
For a moment, the scene suddenly became quiet, but Cindy quickly responded: "Brother Levi, do you think they are likely to take advantage of the chaos to attack?"
Levi nodded appreciatively: "Yes, there was a three-legged confrontation before. If Ban's followers succeed in occupying Silver Town, it will be Cyric's followers' turn to be unlucky next. They will never tolerate this kind of situation."
It happened."
"What's more, I'm becoming more and more suspicious of their involvement in this matter. Maybe they are planning to take over two towns at once, and now is our opportunity!"
Donna and others couldn't believe it at first, but thinking about Cyric's arrogant character, they felt that this seemed to be a logical thing.
Cyric once dared to call himself the "One God". Even if his followers inherited one percent of his arrogance, it would be enough for them to want to occupy two towns at once.
After he explained it briefly, Luna, Alduin and others all understood, and they immediately became excited.
If Master Li Wei's speculation is true and their plan can be implemented smoothly, maybe they will become famous around here soon!
Although the three Amazon sisters still didn't understand some things, they heard something clearly. Next, they would take the initiative to attack a town ruled by other gods' churches. This was enough!
"Haha, Levi, let's go, we Amazon will never be afraid!"
"Yes, we can't wait!"
"For the glory of Zeus and Athena!"
Others also expressed their support. Seeing this scene, Levi couldn't help but laugh: "There is currently insufficient information, so this is still my speculation, but no matter what, at least we can temporarily escape from this vortex and preserve our strength."
He felt that his guess was very likely. The only question was, what kind of power did Cyric's followers rely on to become so confident?
Even if the snake cult and vampires support them at the same time, it's still not enough, right?
The current elite of the Snake Cult is the Terror Legion, and the vampires have been almost killed by him and Lucia. The remaining cannon fodder can hardly play a big role in facing the priests of the two sects.
Unless they have the support of the Church of the God of Thieves or the Beastmen?
But no matter what, going to Thorn Town is their best choice at this stage.
"Okay, in that case, immediately send someone to inform Chen Zhui, the last one, to ask him to pay attention to whether there are any enemy movements nearby, and prepare to receive our reinforcements. Everyone else, turn into Thorn Town!"
