Although the bloodthirsty ghosts performed very well, Dark Bloody Hand did not take a second look, because he knew that they were just used by him to delay time.
Not only can those big guys not last long, but they will also suffer damage from the sun. Coupled with the enemy's attacks, it's amazing if they can last for 2 or 3 minutes.
What can really change the situation of the battle depends on his own confidants!
"Cavalry ready!"
Following his order, a cavalry hero immediately erected a dark war flag full of filth, attaching the same color to the armor of all imperial knights, which was obviously a large-scale special buff state.
At the same time, the large black fog burst open, revealing the enemies hidden within.
Just as Levi guessed, there were indeed some undead, three teams of black knights, and two teams of ghost knights, all of which were level 4 troops.
And at the front is a small team of special ghost knights.
The weapons they use are not lances and shields, but two-handed giant scythes. Their weapons and armor also have a touch of frost power. They are obviously either some rare arms or some advanced units.
The leaders are several vampire knights. They are not only powerful in magic and martial arts, but they can also heal other cavalry during the battle. This is Dark Blood Hand's strongest combat power at present, and it has never been shown to him before.
of hidden power.
At the same time, some priests and mages who had been prepared in advance also cast various buff magics for them.
Ordinary undead will suffer a certain amount of damage under direct sunlight, but after casting these buff magics, these damages will be reduced to the lowest point.
Seeing this, Dark Blood Hand nodded with great satisfaction. He joined the ghost knights, then suddenly raised his several-meter-long lance and acted as the vanguard himself: "Charge with me!"
He doesn't want to and doesn't have to fight head-on with the opponent's cavalry units. He just wants to cut through the opponent's line cleanly and settle the entire battle situation in one fell swoop!
But compared to his opponent, Levi was somewhat helpless, because he knew that the quicksand trap he had just laid might not be very effective.
These ghost knights appear to be stepping on the ground, but they are actually floating at low altitude.
However, he is not completely without means to deal with them. Cindy is almost free, and Sally's blood elves, whether they are mages or spellbreakers, can fight against them more effectively.
In comparison, the combat effectiveness of those black knights is not that good.
In addition to their excellent defense, the Imperial Knights are also very mediocre in other aspects. Even without any bonuses, they cannot defeat the Silver Helmet Knights of the same level in a one-on-one duel.
The purpose is that as long as the opponent is prevented from successfully launching a charge, they will not pose much of a threat.
Before he could speak, Lucia had already taken the lead and laughed: "Levi, leave it to me. It's bad luck for them. I have just developed some special uses for holy water and vampire power."
Levi had no doubts about Lucia's strength, and after Cindy and the others obtained unicorn mounts, he also specially provided her with a gryphon to prevent her from feeling unbalanced.
Not to mention, the gryphon, which normally only likes to cooperate with humans or elves, may have sensed Lucia's alignment and her yearning for the light, but it unexpectedly liked her.
Now flying in mid-air, the enemy's cavalry was completely useless to her.
But the opponent was a cavalry unit with super high speed after all, so he felt it was necessary to send her some cannon fodder.
This time, before he could speak, Zhang San took the initiative and came over: "Li Wei, do you want my help?"
Levi glanced at him and nodded in agreement: "Okay, but be careful. The speed of those ghost cavalry is very scary."
"And you don't have to fight so hard, count the time, Anaconda, Luna and the others will join the battle soon."
At first, they took some extra detours to hide themselves, but by now, it was almost time for them to appear.
Zhang San immediately patted his chest and assured: "It's okay, it's up to me. I'll ask Lao Sha to get some more rock guns, ground stabs and the like. Those guys better not rush too fast!"
He has a total of four heroic subordinates. The two bards are basically bound together. An Arabi warlock who can summon the djinn can ride on the flying carpet with the last sand mage. He can even ride on it.
Come up and join in the fun.
No matter how powerful Ghost Rider is, can he still fly up and beat him?
Lucia and Zhang San quickly went to fight. Li Wei took a look at the battle in mid-air and sent a message to Cindy, asking her to come back and help.
He already knew Lucia's abilities very well, but he was not familiar with Zhang San and the others. With Cindy here, even if something unexpected happened, he could completely save the battle.
Her super-wide psychic blast cannot be ignored by either the Black Knight or the Ghost Rider.
But Zhang San and his subordinates quickly told Li Wei with their actual performance that they were actually very capable.
I saw a series of magical brilliance flash by, several djinn appeared in the air as if they were made of yellow sand, and dozens of intertwined rock spears and ground thorns appeared on the ground.
There were also soldiers, also made of yellow sand, holding spears, standing among them, and a formation specifically used to fight cavalry was quickly formed.
Moreover, the location they chose was also very clever. Ordinary knights would never be able to get past them to attack their own long-range troops, but if they were to attack the Silver Guards, they really wouldn't be particularly worried.
When cavalry units fight against spearmen or halberdiers of the same rank, unless they are defeated in the first round of charge, or they rely on their speed advantage to achieve a back attack or side attack, otherwise the cavalry units will remain stationary in the attack.
It will not occupy a special advantage.
What's more important is that the cost of recruitment and maintenance of cavalry units is much higher than that of pikemen. Even if you exchange one for one, you will still lose money.
Therefore, unless they are absolutely overwhelmed by strength, no cavalry commander would be stupid enough to charge head-on into the enemy's spear formation.
Then Lucia also used her new ability. Several small bottles were thrown out by her condescendingly. Then she didn't know whether she used any magic or made special settings for them in advance. She didn't need to do anything like before.
When the engines fire like that, they will explode in the air on their own.
But unlike the previous holy water, what splashed out this time was some liquid as red as blood.
Caught off guard, at least 20 ghost knights were infected. Lucia immediately let out a scream and fired repeatedly with the musket in her hand.
The ghost knights, who were almost immune to musket attacks, suddenly had several large holes in their bodies that were transparent from the front and back. They were obviously seriously injured.
Zhang San also immediately led his men to launch a fierce attack, targeting the ghost knight who was also the most threatening among the enemies.
The sand magic used by his warlocks and mages was actually more focused on physical attacks. He was somewhat worried before that in times of crisis, he might need to use some of his own hidden props.
But now, because the friendly forces are very powerful, he no longer has any worries in this regard.
Seeing this, Levi was relieved. Lucia's special props were obviously similar to Cindy's Ghost-Breaking Elegy, both of which could forcibly transform incorporeal creatures into entities.
In this way, the threat of the ghost knights is greatly reduced, because this type of troops is much worse than the physical troops in terms of defense and health. They are probably worse than the black knights.
To die first.
It's a pity that the distance is a bit far, otherwise if he adds a few more magic tricks, he might be able to wipe out all the cavalry immediately.
In contrast, Dark Blood Hand was much more distressed. The troops he managed to obtain from vampires ended up suffering heavy losses before they had much effect.
If he had known this earlier, he would not have used the Ghost Riders as vanguards!
So he quickly activated several consumable props and asked the vampire knights to perform emergency treatment.
But after such a delay, Donna in mid-air had already spotted the right moment and launched a wave of deadly arrows downwards.
There was no chance for the opponent to recover their combat strength. Almost all the ghost knights who had been given special status by Lucia were instantly killed on the spot.
Before the Dark Blood Hand could make any reaction, after such a delay, Simon had already charged forward with his cavalry troops.
The high elves' ordinary cavalry is indeed not powerful, and it is not a heroic unit. It cannot give any relevant bonuses to the brothers behind it, but at least they can do one thing, and that is to use their own courage and life to forcefully hold off the enemy!
The supervisors also followed closely with celestial creatures such as Antlers and Tigers.
If they are allowed to confront the enemy's cavalry head-on, there is no doubt that they will suffer heavy casualties. However, if the cavalry of both sides are entangled, it is time for them to show off their skills.
After receiving this series of snipers, Dark Blood Hand was so sad that he almost vomited blood. He had a smooth journey. When had he ever suffered such aggrievedness?
Just when he was about to launch a fierce attack immediately and forcefully break through numerous interceptions, a scream suddenly came from behind him: "Damn it, where did so many cavalry come from?"
More screams followed, and it was clear that others had discovered something too.
Dark Blood Hand quickly turned around, and then he saw a light cavalry force of several hundred people on both sides, approaching quickly and starting to accelerate, apparently intending to launch a strong attack on his own side.
At this time, the other party no longer needs to make any cover-ups.
And after he saw the specific arms of the opponent, he felt even more regretful, because that one was Amazons and the other was night elves.
Now everyone knows that they and Li Wei worked together to capture Thorn Town.
No wonder there were less than a thousand people in Li Wei's frontal formation. It turned out that the two groups of cavalry had already detoured from the side and were waiting for this moment!
At a critical moment, he suddenly fell into a dilemma.
If he continues to advance, it will be difficult for him to break through numerous obstacles to defeat Li Wei. Instead, his own long-range troops and legal troops may suffer fatal losses.
But if you just give up like that, then your troops will die in vain!
At the critical moment, there was a loud bang, and then a bloody light shot into the sky, dyeing half of the sky red almost instantly. At the same time, a cold, evil, and bloody aura also filled the air.
Although they dissipated quickly, no one would forget this feeling immediately, and a regional system announcement immediately popped up.
"The lost power of the gods was noticed by evil forces, and stupid mortals were exploited. Therefore, the devils of the nine-layer Baator Hell opened a special portal in the main world, and their army of devils will gradually begin to appear in the main world.
world.
If left unchecked, the energy of the portal will quickly be strengthened and stabilized until it is enough to support the arrival of the true forms of the great devils.
But if countermeasures can be taken as early as possible, it may be possible to turn it into a situation that is beneficial to all things."
"Regional mission-The Devil's Invasion is officially launched."
Levi immediately understood that no matter what was in the Phantom Valley, it had obviously been used by the devils!
Dark Blood Hand was also stunned for a moment, and then he became furious in an instant: "Levi, you damn fools, do you know what you are delaying?"
Levi chuckled: "Oh? I only know that one or more high-ranking members of your church have been deemed fools by the system."
If he still can't see that the other party is in such a hurry just to save the senior staff of Cyric Church, then he is too stupid.
But now that there has been a system announcement, those people in Cyric Church must have all died. Compared with the devil, their plots and tricks are simply not enough.
Demons are chaotic evil, and devils are lawful evil.
The former are like some bloodthirsty lunatics who only want to kill and destroy.
The latter are hypocritical profiteers. They are far more interested in the souls of mortal things than in their bodies, because that is the common currency in hell and is also the material for them to become stronger.
They are good at using sweet words and seemingly reasonable deals to lure their prey into a trap step by step. In the end, they will take all the money and steal their souls.
But at the same time, Li Wei also realized the seriousness of the problem.
For a long time, many evil gods and their followers have brought many disasters to the mortal beings in the main world, but their wars with each other have been restrained within a certain range.
Because the mortal things in the main world are also regarded by them as potential wealth, they do not want to lose too much.
But devils and devils are different. They come from other planes and are evil in nature. They don't think too much about the consequences.
Even if the previous demonic chaos in Black Castle ended quickly, it still caused serious blows to several surrounding forces, and Black Castle even fell for a time.
If it hadn't been for the help of the Sea Elf God and the Black Castle was recaptured in one fell swoop, what would have happened now.
Therefore, if left alone, the devils may cause great disasters and even pose a threat to Thorn Town. After all, the valley is not too far from Thorn Town.
But thinking on the bright side, this time the demons only opened a portal in the Phantom Valley, instead of being everywhere like the previous demons. As long as one's own strength is sufficient, it is entirely possible to block the portal and kill the opponent.
Dark Blood Hand was immediately speechless, he really had no way to refute.
But seeing Li Wei casually release a fireball after speaking, blowing up a small area of troops, he suddenly became a little angry.
"Levi, don't be too proud. You're lucky this time. I'm sure you won't be as lucky next time!"
After saying that, he took the lead in turning around and running away. They were originally trying to rescue senior members of the Cyric Church, but now that the devil has appeared, the other party must have died, so why bother trying to save their lives?
Li Wei gave a long laugh and climbed directly onto the gryphon mount: "I'm not sure what will happen next time, but I know that you will be in trouble this time!"
Is war a child's play? At this point, the initiative is not in the opponent's hands. Even if you want to run away, you must pay the price!
