So about half an hour later, the plan to lure the enemy was implemented smoothly.
The summoned creatures deliberately sent out by Levi as bait successfully attracted the attention of the devil army.
He was followed by the opponent all the way to the vicinity of the temple, and he also discovered many celestial creatures gathering in mid-air.
Out of the hatred between the races and the opposition between the camps, the devil army immediately used many magics to quickly defeat them, and naturally became interested in the ruins of the temple.
Then a full two hundred vanguard troops walked directly into the bellies of a large number of soul-eating demonic trees.
But seeing countless huge tentacles with thick arms and more than ten meters long sweeping past, most of the devils who acted as vanguard were swallowed up by the shadows and fog.
After smelling the smell of blood, at least seven to eight hundred soul-eating demon trees woke up and began to attack the demon army.
Although Lucia said that their moving speed is very slow, it depends on who they are compared with. Due to their height and long legs, if they chase ordinary villagers, there won't be much of a problem.
Levi knew that his plan was almost successful, and it might even be better than expected.
Because the average strength of the demon army this time was even stronger than what he had expected before, they would definitely make the soul-eating demon trees pay a very heavy price.
Since the materials in hell are relatively poor, ordinary devils do not have particularly good weapons and armor. Many types of devils still use their natural claws and other weapons to fight.
But for this confrontation, the other party obviously showed some real skills.
Judging from the slightly green-glow material, their equipment should all be made of Batopi Hell's specialty - Batopi Ironmaking.
This material is thinner and stronger than ordinary steel, and because the material is very rare, even the most common weapons can be sold for a few gold coins if sold in the main world.
The price may be slightly lower than adamantine and mithril, but it is far better than ordinary weapons.
Not only for their attack power, but also because many mages and alchemists want to study their characteristics.
Almost all the devils on the scene now are equipped with such equipment, and they have obviously carried out basic enchantments. This is not a small sum of money.
At the same time, this time they did not choose the most versatile cannon fodder - the Legion Demon. Instead, they chose a large number of Nightmare Demons, Assassination Demons, Chain Demons and Blood Armor Demons.
Moreover, each of these demons is better at summoning than the other. Except for the fact that they did not expect to be attacked by a sneak attack at first, once they actually entered the battle, the other demons, regardless of type, began to use their respective summoning abilities.
Although their summons were not 100% successful, and most of the summoned demons were weaker than themselves, less than 10 seconds later, the number of the demon army had more than doubled.
This immediately made Li Wei call him a good guy.
In his team, only he and Cindy are better at summoning. Unlike the other party, everyone knows this trick, which is like a cheat.
If it weren't for the special environment here, there seems to be considerable restrictions on chain summons, and the equipment of the newly appeared devils is obviously much worse. If we continue to let them continue to play matryoshka infinitely, we won't have to fight at all later.
But despite this, Levi still issued the highest alert, because in addition to these ordinary devils, the opponent's hero-level units also directly filled 10 units.
It's hard to say what level they are at the moment, but their appearance is very eye-catching, and is very different from the appearance of ordinary devils.
Even though everything here is gray-white, the brilliance of many magical equipment on them still shines with a dark or light gray light.
Moreover, almost all of them are magicians and martial arts practitioners, with various spells emerging in an endless stream. Even the thick-skinned Soul-Eating Demonic Trees were unable to withstand their attacks, and casualties soon appeared.
However, these soul-eating demonic trees actually have an ability that even Lucia doesn't know about, which is self-destruction.
When their corpse fragments are mixed with a large amount of shadow power, they shoot out in all directions, often affecting hundreds of square meters.
Although there is no distinction between friend and foe, ordinary soul-eating demon trees are obviously extremely resistant to this, so the unlucky ones are naturally only those demons.
Through the eyes of omens released by several specially trained omen archons, Levi and Lucia, who saw this situation, looked at each other, feeling somewhat lucky.
But then they couldn't help but gloat a little. It was unfortunate for them to happen to themselves, but if it happened to their enemies, it would only bring them joy!
Several of the devil heroes were obviously angered. Although the Eye of Omen could only see the picture and could not hear any sounds, the fact that they came to the front line one after another and started fighting was enough to explain everything.
And like Levi, they obviously realize that if they are guarded by so many soul-eating demon trees, there must be something good in this temple!
But the devils did not ignore the threat from Li Wei and the others, so while they were fighting against the Soul-eating Demonic Tree, they also dispatched multiple scouts composed of Nightmare Riders to search and alert the surroundings.
But Levi, who had been prepared, would certainly not be easily spotted by them. They were already hiding in a hidden valley 10 miles away.
At the same time, in order to paralyze the opponent, Levi also arranged for some summoned creatures to rest in a certain place every few miles, and then deliberately be discovered by the opponent's scouts.
He wanted to make the other party think that his troops were defeated and dispersed by the soul-eating demon tree and other indigenous people.
As expected, it worked. The ugly faces of several demon heroes who seemed to be the strongest and had the highest status were all distorted. That was because they were happy.
Although I couldn't hear what they were mumbling, if nothing else, it was probably their disdain for Li Wei and the others.
The number of reconnaissance teams dispatched by the devils immediately decreased significantly, while at the same time the offensive intensity of their main team increased by several percent.
Level 5 blood-armored demons and more devil heroes began to participate in the battle personally, and no longer grudged spells or the casualties of ordinary devils.
They would rather endure the self-destruction of the Soul-Eating Demonic Tree than to deal with them as soon as possible.
Under their fierce attack, the soul-eating demon trees began to die one after another, and the number of the demon army was also decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Even if they command well and cooperate tacitly, they will still give priority to summoning creatures to die. But where is the strength of the soul-eating demon tree, the devils will not use the light magic that is the most restrained to them.
But as he continued to fight, Li Wei gradually felt that something was not quite right.
Obviously, the number of both sides participating in the battle exceeded 3,000 in total at the beginning. Various magics and roars emerged in an endless stream, and the noise during the battle was definitely not small.
But why do the Soul-Eating Demonic Trees behind them seem to have neither seen nor heard them?
Even if they are usually in a dormant state, they won't be so sleepy, right?
After exchanging a few glances with Lucia, Cindy, Donna and others, and seeing that they were also a little confused, Levi felt that he might have been a little careless.
In order not to wake up those soul-eating demonic trees, he didn't really get close to them, let alone fight them.
According to Lucia, once those big guys are awakened, they will not fall back into sleep easily, which may affect their next plans.
But now it seems that many of that lush-looking forest composed of Soul-Eating Demonic Trees are probably not real and are just phantoms.
However, it's not bad now. The devils have almost cleared the way for us to move forward, and the soul-eating demon tree has also killed only three or four hundred devils left.
Even the devil heroes have experienced attrition.
One was just unlucky, being flanked by two soul-eating demonic trees that were probably level 6, and was killed instantly on the spot.
The other one led an entire phalanx of chain demons, fought them to the last soldier, and then died together.
When it comes to military discipline, Li Wei has never seen a better race or force than the devils.
This situation is much better than previously expected. In any case, it is almost time for our side to take action.
With this in mind, Levi began to ask his subordinates to use various buffs, especially to pay special attention to the dryads and huntresses led by Luna, as well as flying units such as Xiaotian, griffins and Barani angels.
Because when the war starts later, they have a very important task, which is to clear out all the scouts on the opponent's periphery as soon as possible to prepare for their own surprise attack.
Seeing that the battle was not over yet, but the duration of the Eye of Omen had ended, Levi couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
Little guys like Omen Archon, because their own attack power is too low, even with full body buffs, it is still very difficult to cultivate them.
This has led to the fact that until now, he only has a few little ones that are no higher than level 3.
The Eye of Omen, which was released in advance, could only see the picture without any sound, and the viewing angle was also very small.
In order to make full use of them and see the scene of the devils fighting as much as possible, he put a lot of energy into finding a suitable place to use the Eye of Omen.
The only advantage is probably that as the level increases, both the duration and the effective range of their moves are greatly increased.
Obviously, that's what they were born for.
So he began to consider that maybe he could specially train a few military mages, use Omen Archon as a magic pet, and only use the Eye of Omen?
But soon he no longer had the time to think about it, because the duration of the Eye of Omen was completely over.
Having lost all sight, they must attack the devil army as soon as possible to resolve the battle here, and then go to the temple to see what happens!
