After watching Maltis leave, Levi felt that the Benn Church was also quite unlucky.
After planning for so long, I originally wanted to take advantage of Baiyin Town, but in the end it was me who took advantage.
Before he could do anything, he was dragged into the quagmire of war by a new enemy.
Maldis, whom they now value quite highly and are actively trying to win over, has almost made it clear to him that once this mission is over, she can temporarily join him to jointly investigate the truth behind her death.
Probably because she has been troubled by her identity for so long, even just being a member of the Knights gave her enough hope and motivation.
The only pity is that the Dread Legion may not be able to join her.
It's not that she or they are unwilling, it's just that the Dread Legion has suffered heavy losses in many previous battles. Recently, they were also on the front line during the battle with the Beastmen and others.
Because the old black dragon used special spells or rituals, they were unable to receive treatment, so once they were injured, it was difficult to recover.
There is no effective supplement, so fewer and fewer people die. The next time they go to war, the casualties may increase due to the weakening of strength.
So what can be expected is that when he returns or her mission is completed, there will not be many people left in the entire Terror Legion.
But it's not a big problem. Although those guys are still alive, their actual behavior is really no different from undead creatures.
Only Maldis is okay. With so many people, it's really difficult for him to arrange them. The current situation is considered an acceptable result.
Continuing forward, after crossing a certain hillside, everyone immediately noticed that the scene ahead was different.
Similar to the territory previously occupied by the green-skinned Red Cloud Tribe, the land here is much more barren and the environment is significantly harsher.
In addition to a large amount of sand and gravel, there are large and small swamps everywhere. Even if you haven't really gotten close, you can tell by looking at the black muddy water that they are definitely not good things.
In this kind of environment, I am afraid that even the crocodiles under Sobek's command would not be willing to stay for a long time.
Moreover, except for some hillsides, there are no tall grasses like Green Edge Village and other places, and there are very few trees to block it. If you encounter an enemy, you will be noticed by the opponent even if you are far away.
This resulted in many strategies and tactics having no chance to be used, and they had to rely on each other's hard power.
For Li Wei, it is actually a little disadvantageous, because if he continues to move forward, almost all the forces he encounters will only be enemies.
Of course, they will never have the slightest fear because of this.
Moreover, with the Sky Slayers hanging high in the sky and an increasing number of air forces, they can still take the initiative in most situations.
After summoning some Supervisor Yakon and others as scouts, Levi followed the instructions on the map and headed straight for the pollution pit.
The dwarves there first dug up some evil existence, which caused the surrounding dwarves to suffer together. Now multiple alien races have been fighting and fighting around there. There is absolutely nothing wrong with going there.
Since they already knew that the terrain was not good, they did not use carriages or anything like that this time, which resulted in the overall movement speed being much slower.
With nothing to do, Li Wei also asked the supervisor to take the heavenly creatures to check various quagmires on the way.
Not to mention, there are basically some enemies hidden inside, such as swamp crocodiles, smelly pythons, poisonous toads, etc. There are even some undead in some mire.
If this ordinary animal ran over to take a drink of water, it would probably turn into a real corpse in the blink of an eye.
Occasionally, we would encounter small groups of beastmen or greenskins on the road, but they were basically dealt with by Luna and others, and their large forces had no chance to take action.
But this situation soon changed. After walking more than ten miles, Luna took the lead in issuing a warning.
It is said that in a certain valley ahead, there are a large number of centaurs drinking and mating there.
At the same time, there were some dilapidated tents and partially cut down trees. It seemed that the other party planned to live in the valley for a long time.
Levi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. This was really in line with the behavior of the centaur race. Apart from killing, they only liked these two things.
However, among the many beastmen, apart from those tigers and monkeys who were conquered by the Cathay Kingdom, centaurs are considered to be one of the beastmen with outstanding potential.
Generally speaking, apart from intelligence being their biggest flaw, the biggest flaw of ordinary beastmen is that once they appear, they will definitely be collectively besieged by almost all races around them.
This makes the beastmen like rats crossing the street, getting beaten wherever they go, making it difficult for them to truly develop.
But centaurs are a little different, because they run fast and are natural cavalry, so they are not so easy to destroy. If they can survive, they will naturally have a broader future and have more opportunities to advance.
many.
At the same time, some wise men and even wizards will occasionally be born in their population, which makes them the better type of beastmen.
If they are encountered in the wild, the possibility of a larger group appearing will be far greater than that of ordinary beastmen.
For example, right now, according to Luna's reconnaissance, there are at least a thousand centaurs in that valley.
It's a pity that they really shouldn't choose to rest in the valley. There, they lose their biggest advantage and are left to their own devices.
After confirming the width of the entrance to the valley, Li Wei quickly issued a series of orders: "Inspector, you and the heavenly creatures cooperate with the silver guards to intercept the centaurs at the entrance, but you don't have to completely block it.
Leave a small opening on each side."
"Luna, you are responsible for taking care of those who escaped."
"Let Donna's Sky Slayer come down a little and command the archers to cooperate with our attack. The others can perform freely."
Ordinary centaurs are level 2 soldiers and use spears as weapons, but their full power can only be exerted after a real charge.
The advanced centaur warriors have strengthened their melee combat capabilities, while the centaur ax throwers have transformed into long-range troops, and their strength has been improved to a certain extent.
But in general, they are completely unable to charge up in the valley, but they are still far from enough to see in front of the Silver Guards.
So he wanted to give his subordinates more opportunities to see their performance.
He himself mainly used summoning magic and didn't even plan to perform any centering arrangements.
As his territory grew larger and his troops increased, his heroic spirit became richer, but he still needed to carefully consider and screen the subordinates who were worthy of promotion. These centaurs in front of him were good experimental subjects.
After receiving the order, the subordinates took action and quickly advanced towards the valley.
On the other hand, Shudun looked a little sad because most of the terrain in the west was very bad this time, so they didn't drive carriages or anything like that, and many of their subordinates relied on their legs the whole way.
Considering the short legs of their dwarves, this fighting method is really disadvantageous to them.
Levi could only smile and comfort him a few words. If he couldn't keep up with the initial battle, let the crossbowmen and musketeers block the gaps on both sides.
Or if he really doesn't want to attack at all, then he should be responsible for guarding the rear troops. Anyway, he will not be short of any spoils he deserves.
Well, actually, the reason why I brought the stump this time was not because of his fighting ability.
Dwarves often have a special obsession with their homes and territories.
Even if all the dwarf clans gathered in the Pit were wiped out, the dwarves who had been friends with him before would not want it to be occupied by the greenskins.
If you bring a tree stump, even though he is a dwarf from out of town and a hero chosen by God, in comparison, it will make other dwarves more willing to accept it. Maybe they will also have the opportunity to formally and permanently occupy it.
Winged Snake Aithorn indeed lived up to Li Wei's expectations and responded to his call with a dozen sisters. Their weapons and costumes were almost identical, and there was no difference in ability.
Although the number is still slightly less, they can still take care of hundreds of subordinates in one round of casting.
The bard's singing and dancing are indeed much weaker than the orthodox priest or mage in terms of improving individual strength, but its biggest feature is that it covers a large area and can affect many people at the same time.
And because the Winged Snakes can fly, they can often take advantage of these characteristics better because all of them have the ability to move and perform.
The only thing that Levi couldn't stand a little bit was the look in the eyes of these girls.
They were so hot that they almost seemed to eat him alive.
This made Lucia smile repeatedly, but Levi was only embarrassed. He really couldn't accept it in every sense of the word.
In mid-air, Cindy and Xiaotian led a large number and variety of celestial creatures, as well as griffins, giant eagles and some flying leopards, and pressed towards the valley.
Although the average strength of other celestial creatures is relatively weak except for battle angels and guardian angels, they have gradually become an indispensable part.
At least as a cannon-fodder air force unit, Levi felt it was acceptable.
I don't know if they are really completely addicted to pleasure, or if they just don't have that habit at all. These centaurs don't even have a sentinel.
Until the supervisors and others completely blocked the entrance to the valley, they still didn't react at all and were still having fun there.
The supervisors and the others were a little uncomfortable with this. They really didn't expect it to go so smoothly.
But of course they would not give up the fight because of this, and directly followed the plan and launched a general attack on the opponent.
First of all, it was naturally Donna's arrow rain. Hundreds of arrows were fired at once, killing the opponent's more suspicious legal units and some of the axe-throwers instantly.
Then came the blood elves headed by Sally. With the explosion of several rounds of fireballs, after causing a certain amount of damage, they also ignited some dilapidated tents and other things inside, creating a greater degree of chaos.
.
Cindy first used the sacred glacier to separate some of the centaurs, and then swooped down with the air force.
Elegy, Alduin and others took their own personal guards and rushed directly towards the centaurs dressed as several leaders.
Although the average strength of the opponent is not strong, if you can kill the opponent's leader first, it will naturally make the next battle easier.
Faced with their attacks, they were caught off guard. Many centaurs who were indulging in pleasure died on the spot without knowing what was happening.
The remaining centaurs knew they had been attacked, but only a few could actually react.
They just made bursts of horse-like neighing while jumping around, trying to avoid the enemy's attacks.
This panicked look left Li Wei speechless.
With this kind of enemy, how should we review the strength of our subordinates?
No wonder people often say that they are pronounced as beastmen, but they are actually wild monsters!
However, it always feels a little weird.
Why are such a large group of centaurs so vulnerable?
And despite the great panic, nearly a hundred casualties appeared within seconds of being attacked, but currently no centaur has tried to escape through the two paths they deliberately left.
Does this mean that they have other sources of support?
"Roar!"
At this moment, accompanied by an extremely wild howling sound, an obviously unusual centaur suddenly emerged from a dark bush somewhere.
Not only is its body several times larger than the average of its kind, but also because around its neck hangs a chain of necklaces made from the skulls of various humanoid creatures.
Several of them are obviously ogres and trolls, which is not something ordinary centaurs can do.
"Damn elves, you dare to provoke the descendants of the father of all beasts, you will pay the price for this!"
While howling, it waved its hand, and saw a gray-black, slightly ominous light flashing through, and then several translucent ghosts appeared directly among the corpses of several centaurs.
Then it waved its hand again, and several centaur corpses stood up again and joined the battle in front of them.
Levi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. The opponent turned out to be a special centaur death summoner. This was not something ordinary centaurs could do. This usually meant that the opponent had a certain inheritance.
Hearing its howl and seeing its movements, even though it was the corpses and souls of its own race that were being used, the centaurs around them didn't have the slightest bit of fear. Instead, they all looked at it with excitement and awe.
Even though it didn't issue any orders, the other centaurs seemed to have found their backbone. They stabilized in the blink of an eye and began to try to counterattack.
But Li Wei didn't pay too much attention to it. Only by resisting could he be able to see the reaction of his subordinates in battle. He was more concerned about the inheritance behind the other party and what it said was the father of all beasts.
The Father of All Beasts-Groth Warhoof, a legendary beastman hero, is said to have brought the centaur's two hobbies to the extreme. At its peak, it had tens of thousands of sons or daughters.
Not only centaurs, but also other beastmen, or simply beasts.
Since this information was derived from the divinity of the goddess Lilith, Livy believed it should be true.
But a few decades ago, it mysteriously disappeared, and its many descendants seemed to have experienced some kind of massacre.
Considering that the beastmen have no written heritage, their actual lifespan may only be a few months to a few years on average. It is natural that they and their legends will be quickly lost in time.
But now this centaur suddenly called out this name, and it was another Death Summoner. Levi couldn't help but think about it.
So he pretended to be confused and said: "Are you a descendant of Gross Warhoof? Hasn't it been dead for a long time?"
As he spoke, he sent a message to Donna, Cindy and others through the surveillance camera, instructing them not to rush to kill each other yet.
Otherwise, this guy who looks majestic when he appears may actually not survive even half a minute.
Death Summoner suddenly became furious: "Damn Elf, how dare you insult the Father of Beasts like this!"
Roaring like this, it released several more spells such as Death Ripple, Undead Lieutenant, etc.
Although it barely caused any harm to Levi and the others, he was certain that the other party definitely had a formal magic inheritance.
So he mocked the other party a few more times, and then easily got the words from the other party.
It turned out that it had been gifted by the Father of Beasts in a dream a few days ago and gained these powers.
At the same time, many elite centaurs in its clan also dreamed of the Father of Beasts.
It tells them that it is their father or grandfather, and now it is trapped somewhere and needs their power.
That's why the Death Summoner crossed a distance of hundreds of miles and rushed towards the Dirty Pit.
Then on the way, it also encountered other centaur tribes who had similar experiences, and eventually they gathered more and more, reaching a peak of more than 2,000 centaurs.
However, they encountered the enemy later, so now there are only so many left. They rested temporarily in the valley, and then encountered a surprise attack by Li Wei and others.
Hearing this, Li Wei became more and more confused.
All records show that the Father of Beasts, apart from his ridiculously strong reproductive capacity, is a pure warrior and does not know any magic at all.
It was only because it lived long enough and experienced enough battles that it gradually grew into a legend after hundreds of years.
As a beastman, its lifespan is indeed only a handful in the true sense.
But now that it has been missing for decades, it suddenly has advanced means of entrusting dreams and even granting abilities to others.
This is because in the process of disappearing, it was able to go further and become a powerful demigod or even a god.
Or is there another being pretending to be it?
For example, the Lord of Beasts-Mala!
The reason why Li Wei decided to go to the West this time was because he heard that the other party's believers and the beastmen were planning some conspiracy.
In other words, it was simply Maura's vest number from the beginning?
This was not Li Wei's random guess. Maura had killed a green-skinned demigod before, and then tried to impersonate him to defraud the green-skinned demigods, but it was quickly exposed.
Similarly, Lilith also told Levi through divinity that they had previously discovered that Ma La was stalking the big crocodile Sobek in the dark. If he had not taken refuge in the Elf God System in time, Ma La might have taken action against him soon.
Now one is the father of all beasts, and the other is known as the lord of all beasts. Even the titles are so similar that anyone will associate them with each other.
Could the man behind the collective destruction of the dwarves in the Judeng Pit also be Maura?
Then why did he summon so many centaurs and beastmen over now?
Could it be that Maela wants her vest number to be officially deified as a god?
A series of questions arose in Levi's mind, and he was eager to get more information to resolve his doubts.
Unfortunately, no matter how much he tried to get more information through ridicule or insult, he always failed because the other party didn't know so many details at all.
It was just because the so-called Father of All Beasts gave it power, so it wanted to go on a pilgrimage with all its enthusiasm.
This behavior of the other party only confirmed Levi's guess. This guy looked like he was about to become a fanatical believer.
As for the attack on the other party, it probably refused to disclose anything because it felt embarrassed.
But Li Wei could almost guess that there was intelligence before that showed that Virginia, the Oracle of the Moon, and many wood elves frequently rushed to the west.
Although there is no clear information showing that they have joined the battle, they will definitely not miss it.
Of course, in order to further confirm this, he took the initiative to tell this centaur, who although he knew some magic, was actually still very stupid.
Unexpectedly, the other party was actually furious: "It's not those damn mung bean sprouts, it's all because of those tigresses!"
The other party's answer made Li Wei stunned. Wasn't it them?
Are these tigresses an adjective, or are they literal?
But no matter how much he continued to ask, the centaur never answered this time. Even if it was a bit stupid, it still sensed something was wrong after wasting so much time talking.
Although he was a little regretful, Li Wei could only wave his hand.
Since he has no use value anymore, he can only be sent to die.
So in the next moment, three fireballs flew together and blew it over.
Before it could get up from the ground, Alyssa's poison magic and the special attacks of the spellbreakers also came one after another. In addition, small magic such as arrows and wind blades flew by from time to time, and it was lost in the blink of an eye.
Most of my life.
Before it had time to curse or make other reactions, Elegy had already led the sword dancers, like cutting through the waves, straight towards its location.
The fragile defense line formed by the centaurs was not worth mentioning in front of her.
Although the other party is not dead yet, Levi doesn't pay much attention to it because Supervisor Akon told him that suddenly a team composed of humans, wood elves and beastmen was approaching quickly.
Levi immediately understood that such a strange combination could only be the Oracle of the Moon!
