Unfortunately, neither Levi's magic nor Donna's arrow rain can always achieve such good results.
For the bloodthirsty bat wolves and werewolves, the distance of only one to two hundred meters only takes a few seconds and can be covered in an instant.
So with Li Wei's order, he, Sally and other legal units changed their attack methods one after another.
He no longer wastes time on chain lightning, which takes a long time to cast but has poor effects, but instead uses ice wall.
Sally casts Wall of Fire, while Cindy casts Divine Glacier and Flame Strike.
Their instantaneous damage is not high, but just like the Moonlight Wall, it lasts a long time. If the opponent does not dodge and continues to forcefully attack, he will still receive a lot of damage.
Aren't those barren tomb guards well-disciplined and in neat formation? Let's see if you can dodge now?
Not to mention, those werewolves were really stupid. They probably relied on their thick skin and fast speed, so more than one-third of the werewolves ignored these magics and just charged forward.
Then they all died in it.
Even if they have been strengthened to a certain extent, most of them are only level 3-4 units and cannot withstand too much magic.
The Tomb Guards were much more cautious. They either started to detour as a small team, or simply stayed in place, waiting for the latest order.
At this time, the vampires behind them also began to cast various dark and water-attribute magics to weaken or break their magic.
Although their average strength was not strong, their victory was due to their large enough numbers, hundreds of them, and they quickly changed the situation, allowing the Tomb Guards to advance smoothly again.
The only ones who were not affected in any way were probably the bloodthirsty manta wolves.
Just after Donna shot a few arrows, they quickly broke through the heavy magic, carrying a strong impact, and slammed into the temple door.
Following this loud noise, the entire temple seemed to be shaken, and the energy shield that looked like moonlight also fluctuated violently.
Then they opened their huge mouths one after another and let out threatening roars at the warriors at the front.
Caught off guard, many wood elves and beastmen who were originally confident went crazy.
They either simply put down their weapons, turned around and ran, or they simply jumped over the protection and rushed out.
Then they were easily torn into pieces by the bloodthirsty bat wolf's giant claws, and then swallowed into its belly.
Obviously, this is a supernatural fear ability, and the effect is unexpectedly strong. Even if the rune blacksmiths of the tree stump have exerted protective power, it is still not enough to completely immunize them from their effects.
Seeing this appearance, Virginia's expression suddenly changed. She had tried her best to overestimate the opponent's power, but it was still not enough!
Cindy quickly threw a Beacon of Courage over, the Crazy Horsemen used the aid spell, and then the Winged Serpents Love Thorns also sang.
In the face of many skills that improve fear resistance, although the bloodthirsty bat wolves roared continuously, they finally did not cause wider chaos.
Soon, a large number of werewolves and barren tomb guards came up with heavy arrows and magic, and began to surround the front of the temple in an orderly manner, launching an attack together.
The bloodthirsty bat wolves used their claws and claws together, like an angry whirlwind, and launched an attack crazily.
Li Wei and the others could imagine how swift and powerful their offensive would be without the protection of magic.
Not only do they have high attack power, but their attack frequency is also very good, which is really unfortunate for their enemies.
For a time, the temple's protection was like a soap bubble in the wind, constantly changing its shape.
Levi resisted the urge to hold his forehead. Now it seems that the protective magic of the temple has a certain defense power and health value. Before it is broken, one's own attacks can fly out freely, but the enemy cannot enter.
Come.
But at the same time, it is also the stupidest type of large-scale war.
Because once it is completely defeated, it will basically be of no use in the future, and it is far inferior to the likes of the Flame Barrier.
But there is no other way, and there is no better choice now. He can only try his best to use repelling magic such as Avandor's Star, or magic with strong restrictive capabilities such as black tentacles and spider webs to save Donna and the others.
To gain time.
Cindy mainly used the Sacred Glacier. Before the first one was smashed, her second one had already stood up. She was trying to divide and restrict the opponent as much as possible.
Sally led the blood elves and mainly used fireball.
After many battles, almost all of the blood elf mages who came to seek refuge with her advanced to level 4 and mastered this magic.
Released together with multiple fireballs, it can still cause a knockback effect on ordinary werewolves or grave guards.
The spell breakers kept throwing their blades, while the sword dancers used the flying swords while constantly firing the fastest magic missiles.
The Winged Snake Love Thorns began to roam the entire battlefield, constantly displaying the unique abilities of various bards.
Dirge, Alduin and others are guarding the front of the gate. Once the protective shield is broken, they will face a powerful enemy.
There is no way, who makes the temple mainly composed of magicians, followed by shooters, and there are not many serious warriors at all?
Levi even directly summoned the bear-headed envoys and asked them to use the monster immobilization technique specifically on the bloodthirsty bat wolves. Now was not the time to save money.
Not to mention, this did have some effects.
Even because of the gap in strength, except for Bill, the success rate of other bear-headed envoys is only a little over 20%.
And even if it succeeds, it can only cause the opponent to pause for less than half a second each time, but where are their numbers?
They concentrated on dealing with a few bloodthirsty manta wolves, and they were able to make them twitch like a robot out of power, unable to form complete movements.
However, they were huge and could block many of the werewolves and grave guards behind them, giving Donna and the others ample time to snipe.
Coupled with the cooperation of the priests led by Virginia, their damage to the protective shield was finally controlled within a certain range.
The only thing that needs to be worried is that this move of the bear-headed gods consumes a lot of magic.
Even if Levi specially prepared a large amount of magic potions and still had the magic buff from the temple at this moment, he might not be able to hold on for even one minute after casting spells so frequently.
But before they could weaken first, something happened on the other side.
When they focused their main energy on the bloodthirsty bat wolves, attacks from other aspects were naturally not taken into consideration for the time being.
Within a few dozen seconds, hundreds of barren tomb guards had already surrounded most of the temple, wielding swords, spears and heavy halberds in unison.
Although their average attack power is much lower than that of the Bloodthirsty Bat Wolves, the protective shield cannot be completely ignored, and since they are more numerous, their overall damage may not be lower than that of the Bloodthirsty Bat Wolves.
The protective shield flashed a few times at first, and seemed to be able to withstand it, but soon the color dimmed rapidly, obviously it was very expensive.
Immediately afterwards, even the shape undergoes drastic changes. Often when the opponent shoots at it, there will be a huge depression.
Levi suddenly felt bad. This thing looked like it might break at any time!
Dirge clenched her weapon excitedly, preparing to face the battle that might come at any time. Just watching Donna and Cindy kill enemies made her a little bored, so she just happened to find a fight with a bloodthirsty manta wolf.
At this time, the female vampire hiding in the dark seemed to realize this. With a whistle, hundreds of vampires no longer assisted the tomb guards in front. They rose into the air and joined the siege together.
Since they can fly, they can attack more places in the shield at the same time, causing greater damage.
Seeing this scene, Levi suddenly narrowed his eyes slightly.
Donna and other archers were upstairs, using various windows as temporary shooting holes. If the energy shield was directly broken, they would be immediately faced with the vampire attack.
Therefore, the top priority now is to eliminate this threat.
"Cindy, Xiaotian!"
"Okay!"
"Yes, sir!"
Needless to say, based on the long-term tacit understanding, Cindy responded immediately, and then she took off directly with the angels, starting with several large-scale psychic blasts.
Strictly speaking, even based on her super high attributes, the damage of this skill is basically equivalent to ordinary level 1-2 magic.
But what she and Levi valued about this skill was never its damage, but its controllability, large range, and knockback effect!
Caught off guard, a large number of vampires were forcibly pushed back a certain distance one by one, as if they had been swatted by a fly swatter, and were temporarily unable to continue attacking the energy shield.
At the same time, Xiaotian also flew out of the protective shield with griffins, giant eagles, flying leopards, and a large number of Legion Archons and Barani Angels.
The best way to deal with it is to use offense instead of defense, and turn passivity into initiative!
The vampires naturally launched a counterattack immediately, and the battle in mid-air instantly became intense.
However, in terms of high-end combat power, vampires are still inferior.
Not only were they unable to withstand Cindy and the Angels, but they were also unable to compete with the Griffins and Winged Leopards. At most, they could barely tie with the Giant Eagles, or bully the Legion Archons.
This made the female vampire hiding in the dark feel a little bit frightened.
If she had shown up at the beginning of the war and the other party was willing to pay the price, she might have been successfully decapitated.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but turn her head and look at another male vampire a few meters behind her.
"Aru, I'll leave it to you to take command from now on."
Although he is a male vampire, he is still somewhat intelligent, but his bloodline is too mixed.
At the critical moment, Elegy gave a sweet shout and rushed forward first. With her body full of buffs and well-equipped equipment, she had no fear of the bloodthirsty bat wolf.
Alduin next to him also roared, transformed into a half-dragon form, and led his dragon warriors to meet him.
Then many silver guards, as well as the beasts and wood elves belonging to the temple, also rushed forward.
In the next moment, at least dozens of people were knocked away or beaten away by the bloodthirsty bat wolves.
Some even turned into corpses while still in mid-air. The brutality and power of the bloodthirsty bat wolves were clearly revealed for a moment.
Although everyone is trying their best to resist, except for the bloodthirsty bat wolves, many enemies do not care about casualties at all, and do not even pursue killing the enemy, but just want to break through their own interception.
In this case, we were unable to quickly eliminate all the adjacent enemies, so it didn't take more than two minutes for a large number of enemies to break into the temple.
Li Wei and other legal units were no longer safe. As a last resort, they retreated one after another.
But as the battle gradually turned into an indoor battle, they could no longer cast range-based offensive magic. Instead, they used various auxiliary, restrictive, or single-target small magic.
Levi mainly restricts the bloodthirsty bat wolves.
Elegy and Alduin are okay. They are strong enough, so even if they cannot kill the opponent quickly, it is not difficult to block the opponent with the assistance of priests and other units.
But the same could not be said for others, especially those affiliated with the temple. For a time, they were in even more danger and were quite embarrassed.
Judging from Li Wei's current experience, many temples do not seem to be particularly professional in the management and command of the army. They place more emphasis on individual or small team operations.
In battle, they will try their best to avoid being harmed and mainly dodge, which is usually more beneficial for them to go out and take risks.
But when encountering such a large-scale, inescapable battle, the infantry on the front line are often required to cooperate with each other and resist the enemy's charge. Even at the cost of their lives, they cannot take a step back.
They will immediately become very uncomfortable, and if their strength is not strong enough at the same time, they will easily suffer heavy casualties.
For example, now, the bloodthirsty bat wolves, not to mention each claw, cause more than double-digit damage every time they attack.
If they use their claws and claws at the same time, or if there is a werewolf or tomb guard nearby to make up for it, then the defenders of the temple will definitely die in battle.
The situation of the Silver Guards is slightly better, but it is only a little, because the damage done by the bloodthirsty bat wolves is too high, so high that ordinary priests cannot save them at all.
Levi also frowned a little. This scene was so similar to the one in Lilith Temple.
Unexpectedly, after many days, my strength has increased countless times, but I still have to repeat this experience again.
But fortunately, he was at a loss for life at the beginning and could only rely on possible foreign aid. But now if the war is really unfavorable, he can leave calmly.
Of course, things only look a bit unlucky for the time being, but in fact their chances of winning are still very high.
After killing these bloodthirsty manta wolves and Cindy taking care of those annoying vampires, it will be their turn to fight back, perhaps without the need for reinforcements from the wood elves at all.
After another series of steel restraints and temporarily trapping a bloodthirsty bat wolf, Levi used level 6 magic - dissociation.
This time he was lucky. In a flash of green light, a thick forelimb of the bloodthirsty manta wolf immediately turned into ashes.
Unable to control its balance, it fell directly to the ground, causing the ground around it to shake.
Then a blood-red number appeared above its head: "-380!"
Levi was also refreshed. Unless the instant death effect of the Finger of Death takes effect, this number is almost the highest damage he can currently deal.
That is to say, it can withstand such a high amount of damage if it is rough-skinned and thick-bodied and has a health value of over a thousand. None of its subordinates would be able to withstand such a high amount of damage.
Of course, even if they were hit by the enemy's dissociation spell and took effect, and even had an arm destroyed on the spot, they would never lose so many lives.
The damage done to destroy limbs is based on the target's upper limit of life.
At this time, several dragon warriors around them rushed over and beat them violently.
Even though the bloodthirsty bat wolf still behaves very fiercely, it is temporarily unable to adapt to the balance after losing its limbs, and its counterattack is relatively weak.
After another quick glance around, Levi discovered that although his side seemed to be suppressed and beaten, especially Virginia and the others who suffered heavy casualties, the actual fighting was still within an acceptable range.
The opponent had only invaded the temple, but it was still very early before they actually captured this place.
So he simply turned his target to another bloodthirsty bat wolf, and then repeated the same trick, trying to detach one of the opponent's limbs first, and then slowly recover from it.
It's not that he doesn't want to be fast, it's that in addition to high attack speed, thick blood, and quite low defense, they also have the natural hunger skill.
This can basically be understood as a higher level of blood-sucking.
Ordinary vampires need to drink blood themselves in order to restore their own life. This often happens when the strength gap between the two sides is huge, or when the opponent has been subdued.
Or they can use level 3 magic - Vampire Touch to achieve similar effects through contact attacks.
However, the hunger of a small number of high-level vampires and bloodthirsty bat wolves means that as long as there is blood splashing around them, they can draw special power from it, thus continuously restoring their own life and physical strength.
Higher-level vampires, such as Dracula, may have rebirth skills.
As the name suggests, they will continue to regenerate unless killed instantly.
Even if they are killed, they can often be resurrected again under some special ritual.
Obviously vampires have no souls, but they can still have complete consciousness after resurrection. This is something that Lilith and the gods of death in major pantheons have not yet been able to fully understand.
It can only be said that although Nagash has done many evil things, he is worthy of being one of the strongest mages in human history. He has single-handedly shaken the foundation of the entire Egyptian pantheon. His talent and power are beyond doubt.
With this thought in mind, Levi's dissociation technique took effect again, causing another bloodthirsty bat wolf to lose its left leg. The surrounding friendly forces immediately swarmed forward, causing it to follow in the footsteps of its companion.
Seeing this, Li Wei couldn't help but nod with satisfaction. On average, he could succeed once every three times, directly destroying a strong enemy. From this point of view, it wouldn't take long to kill them all.
Although the Bloodthirsty Manta Wolf is very strong, it is still a monster that relies on its body and brute strength. It is still unable to fight against high-level magic.
Unfortunately, in this chaotic situation, Levi did not dare to use the Finger of Death, because this magic is not directional. If it is blocked by a certain tomb guard in the middle, it will lose blood.
Or if a friendly force happens to be knocked back at this moment, then he will be the one who hits the friendly force hard.
In fact, dissociation has similar disadvantages, but it is a level 6 magic with a shorter casting time, and the difficulty of regenerating a severed limb is somewhat different from that of resurrecting the dead.
In any case, thanks to the efforts of Dirge, Alduin, Levi and others, the threat of the bloodthirsty bat wolves was finally controlled within a certain range.
When Levi's magic continued to succeed and the bloodthirsty bat wolves lost their limbs one after another and fell into the siege, the pressure on the temple defenders was partially relieved.
Without the fierce attack of the bloodthirsty bat wolves, although the other Tomb Guards are also quite strong and their numbers are several times their own, they are still within their coping range for the time being.
Li Wei was slightly relieved when he saw this. Although the dissociation technique was powerful, it required him to be precise and quick every time he used it, otherwise he might inadvertently injure friendly forces.
In addition, he has to constantly let the summoned creatures fill the gaps in the battle formation, always pay attention to the weak points of the defense line, so that he can mobilize troops back and forth for reinforcements, and he has to constantly monitor Yakon, Donna, Cindy, and even Luna and others.
communication, so the mental pressure on him is still considerable.
Fortunately, the divinity of the goddess Lilith gave him an energetic special effect. Even in such a complicated situation, he did not feel the slightest bit tired.
At the same time, good news also came from Cindy. She has already achieved an overwhelming advantage in the battle with the enemy's air force. If no new enemies appear, she will be able to annihilate them in five minutes at most.
But the news from Donna made Levi a little confused.
Because from her condescending position, she could clearly see that the vampires' attacks seemed to be continuous like a tide, but in fact, there seemed to be a certain gap between each wave of attacks, which gave the defenders in the temple some breathing space.
Chance.
And so far, except for the vampires who were being beaten by Cindy, no enemy seemed to have tried to attack them.
Even if the ordinary undead don't have any long-range units, what about the opponent's heroic units?
And what about those human crossbowmen and musketeers we saw before? Is it possible that they didn’t bring any of them?
It is precisely because of this suspicion that he has not sent Luna and others out until now, but has allowed them to continue to lurk in the forest, waiting for new opportunities.
Maybe the other party has prepared a trap and is waiting for Luna and the others to step into it, so it's better not to be careless.
At this time, Lucia behind him suddenly said: "Levi, I feel something strange."
Looking at the slightly confused eyes of the other party, Levi was also a little surprised.
In order to avenge Dracula, she had already developed a tough mind. He had never seen the other party's expression like this before, let alone being on a tense battlefield now.
He racked his brain and asked tentatively: "Did you detect the vampires of the 13th family, or Dracula?"
Probably because they all have part of the same blood in their bodies, when the vampires of the 13th family come close to her within a certain range, she will vaguely feel a special feeling.
After collecting a total of 11 family rings, in addition to slightly improving all aspects of her attributes, this feeling has also been greatly strengthened.
That's why in the past, she could find the target more accurately every time and carry out targeted attacks as soon as possible.
"No, it's not Dracula," Lucia shook her head gently, "but it's much stronger than the 13th family."
Levi suddenly became more and more surprised, but in the blink of an eye, he immediately made a very bold guess: "Could you be suspicious of Dracula?"
Lucia bit her lip: "Yes, I suspect he has created new offspring."
They are descendants, not descendants. For vampires, the two are completely different.
The descendant only needs to take a bite from Dracula, give the opponent a drop of blood, and then use a transformation ritual.
But the real descendant of Dracula has always been Lucia.
So you can imagine how complicated Lucia's mood is now.
Levi couldn't help but become slightly cautious. If Dracula really succeeded in giving birth to new offspring, or he simply found a way to produce offspring in large quantities, then Lucia's importance to him would be greatly reduced.
The danger she faces will increase linearly.
In the past, it was because of her unique and special existence that Dracula still tolerated her after she had done so much damage and carried out so many killings.
But that may not be the case now.
Or even if he doesn't deal with her personally, after losing his secret protection, there will definitely be a lot of vampires coming to attack Lucia.
He has never forgotten that the 13th family is just a toy created by Dracula. He originally wanted to use them as believers to carry out the plan of becoming a god.
But his real background lies in the much more powerful Eclipse Alliance.
But now the specifics are just his guesses. He must first defeat the enemy in front of him, and then take Lucia to verify it himself!
