Isn't that right? When Li Wei heard the sound and turned his head to look over, he saw a burly tauren quickly disappearing into the shadows.
Obviously the shadow was not enough to completely cover his body, but he still disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Levi immediately understood that this guy was probably a thief or some other similar profession, and had the ability to hide in shadows.
It's just that if his race is matched with such a profession, the novelty is enough, but in terms of practicality and combat effectiveness, he will definitely be beaten head-on by tauren warriors of the same level and with the same equipment, right?
But that doesn't matter. After the opponent takes the initiative to escape from the battlefield, the battle here will no longer be suspenseful.
In less than half a quarter of an hour, the battle was almost over. The tauren who were under special care were all killed, and 70% to 80% of other beastmen were also killed.
After driving him away for a while and confirming that the other party had really escaped, Li Wei did not send anyone to pursue him.
The main reason is that Luna is busy chasing down the remaining centaurs. Without their reconnaissance and vigilance, it is better not to spread too thin.
He even stopped Sonia and Sefa. They didn't know whether they were fighting from the top, or it was the first time that they had enough front-line fighters to attract firepower, and there were a large number of priests and druids as backup.
So they seemed to be a little too excited.
After being stopped by Levi, they finally calmed down.
This look made Levi want to laugh a little. He felt that some of the adventurous experiences the other party had told him before had been artistically processed.
These two chicks don’t seem to have experienced any real big scenes, right?
But this is a good idea. He secretly made up his mind to let the priests and druids take good care of them in all aspects, so that they can be more comfortable in the future, so comfortable that they can't live without him!
Sonia and Sefa looked at each other, feeling a little embarrassed. This time they were really a little impulsive.
Although they have always wanted to pursue independent adventures and have never teamed up with others, but now after experiencing it for real, they know that with the cooperation of reliable teammates, the efficiency of fighting and killing enemies will be improved.
How many times.
In particular, Sefa felt even more deeply, because Li Wei had a mad horse user and a spirit fox user follow closely behind her.
Especially the latter, with the existence of the cunning spirit fox aura, the effect is quite obvious for a mage like her who consumes a lot of magic points.
But before they could come to say thank you, Virginia had already come to Levi's side again: "Levi, is there any way you can let me go in and have a look? I won't be willing to do it without confirming it myself.
"
Looking at her pitiful appearance, Levi couldn't refuse, and he also had doubts about it.
So he nodded happily and said: "I have a fire belt that can isolate a small area of magic. In addition, with the ability to endure elemental damage and other magic, it should be able to ensure our safety."
"Ah? Do you want to go in person too?"
Virginia was very embarrassed. This request she made was already too much. How could she let Levi go in person?
But there was no way, this magic needed to be maintained by Levi himself, and he didn't think there would really be much danger. He could just summon a large number of fire elements and let them go to explore first.
Sefa who was next to him also came over quickly: "Li Wei, I have the fire avoidance technique, you can also go together."
Although she was hired by Virginia, unknowingly, she gradually ignored the other person's existence and began to pay attention to Levi's attitude, and everyone around her didn't seem to feel it either.
Anything unusual.
Li Wei naturally smiled and nodded: "Okay, then let's do it."
Then he turned to instruct Donna, Cindy, Stump and others not to forget to be vigilant while cleaning the battlefield.
The fire here is so bright that it can be clearly seen dozens of miles away. No one knows what kind of existence it will attract.
The subordinates naturally agreed one by one. In fact, since they left Thorn Town, Li Wei had warned them more than once that the outside was full of dangers and they must be careful.
Virginia also took Levi around for a short distance. She knew the location of the original gathering place of the wood elves in the forest. If there is a place where survivors are most likely to exist, it must be there.
Levi first sent a few fire elements to explore, and then cast a few spells such as ice storm to slightly reduce the heat before stepping into the still burning forest.
His fireproof belt can take care of multiple allies, but the area covered by the magic cannot be moved. He needs to continuously cast spells and move forward like laying a floor.
Sefa's fire avoidance technique can only be used against herself, but the advantage is that it is a buff state. As long as she has enough magic resistance, she can go anywhere.
All in all, there are pros and cons to each.
Fortunately, the ice storm can still play a considerable role. Using magic to fight ordinary flames, the effect is still very obvious.
Sefa wanted to help, but her ice arrows and the like were of little use in this situation, so she could only stare.
It's just that he worked so hard to cast the spell, which made Virginia behind him feel more and more sorry. But now that the matter was at this point, she had no shame in changing her mind at the last moment, so she could only wait until later to find a way to repay him.
It didn't take long before a fire elemental suddenly came over with news that it had made a discovery.
Levi immediately changed his route. Virginia was a little surprised at first, but soon her face was full of surprises, because this probably only meant one thing!
Sure enough, before walking a few hundred meters, they saw in a clearing in a forest, a number of tree spirits burning with flames, working hard to destroy the burning trees around them, just to protect some unknown trees on the ground behind them.
Elf.
After looking carefully, one can realize that the flames on these tree spirits do not seem to be ignited on the outside, but more like flames emanating from the inside out.
There are also fiery red halos, centered on them, radiating outwards and covering the bodies of the wood elves.
Probably because of their protection, the wood elves were not burned together.
Virginia suddenly exclaimed: "Oh my god, it's the flame-skinned tree spirit!"
Treants, dryads and dryads may seem to be the same word, but in fact they are completely different.
Those half-deer, half-human girls who hang around behind Luna all day long are dryads. They can reproduce naturally like humans.
In some remote places, some people also call some corrupted tree people vicious tree demons.
Treants are large human-shaped trees. They are the embodiment of nature's will and spirit.
They may be big or small, high or low, but generally speaking, they have formed a close alliance with the wood elves, and the wood elves can also use them to drive a large number of wild beasts in the forest.
As for the tree elves, it is often the case that after some wood elves die in battle, their souls do not completely dissipate. Instead, they still maintain a certain amount of strength driven by emotions such as anger and madness.
They tend to possess certain trees and get back up to fight, usually with a vengeance.
The flame-skinned tree spirit is the most special and rarest among them.
Almost all tree people are afraid of fire, and even those who reach the legendary level may not be able to completely overcome this weakness.
But the flame-skinned tree spirits can not only ignore the flames, but they can control the flames, use them to attack, and even protect their allies.
Although powerful, they appear only a handful of times.
Because that often means that there are living wood spirits being burned to death by the flames, and they also need to have a tough enough soul, sufficient energy around them, and many other conditions.
Not to mention that the requirements are extremely high, but more importantly, the wood elves will never take the initiative to do such a thing in order to improve their combat effectiveness.
Hearing her cry, several flame-skinned tree spirits looked over in unison.
Being stared at by these big guys, who are generally six or seven meters tall, ordinary people might be scared away on the spot, and Sefa was obviously a little nervous.
The strongest enemy she and Sonia hunted in the past was an injured Cyclops.
But at that time, they had enough room to move around, and one head and many heads were completely different concepts!
But Virginia showed no fear and took the initiative to take a few steps forward.
"I am Virginia, your friend, brave and fearless soul, do you remember me?"
The flame-skinned tree spirit stared at her intently for several seconds, and finally one of the flame-skinned tree spirits took the initiative to make way for a passage, and made a loud rumbling sound in its mouth: "Take them away!"
Li Wei did his best. He waved his hand to summon some celestial creatures and elemental creatures, signaling them to launch rescue operations as soon as possible.
But in fact, there were not many living wood elves left there. Some of their arms and thighs were burning, but they themselves had not made any movement, and they were obviously dead.
But these flame-skinned tree spirits couldn't tell them apart, they simply put them all together.
The souls and wills of tree spirits driven by anger and hatred are often incomplete. No one can say how much wisdom they can retain.
There are actually only five wood elves who may actually have survived.
Naturally, Li Wei immediately used some purification scrolls on them to remove possible negative effects such as burning on their bodies, and then poured some life potion into them.
Then he turned to look at Virginia: "What should they do?"
If they were left here, these dryads who had been burned alive and were driven by anger, hatred and desire for revenge would probably lose their way completely before long.
Then he ran out of the forest and launched an indiscriminate attack on all surrounding creatures.
Whether they kill innocent passers-by or are killed, it will definitely not end well.
Ordinary dryads have incomplete souls and minds, and often need to be cared for and commanded by treants and wood elves. Needless to say, there is no need to say more about these special flame-skinned dryads.
Virginia was also in a bit of a dilemma, because she had no easy solution, but it was obviously not appropriate to just let them stay here.
Just when they hesitated for a moment, a wood elf woke up, and after taking a look at the surrounding environment, he immediately recognized the reality clearly.
He shouted directly: "Use this!"
Before Levi or Virginia could ask carefully, he had just taken out half of the magic item from his arms and fainted again.
Naturally, Virginia picked up the things immediately. After taking a quick look, she immediately handed it to Li Wei with a hint of joy: "Li Wei, there is a way!"
Levi took a look and found that this flute, which looked like a very ordinary piece of red tree branch, was actually a rare blue object - a dryad singing flute.
It has no other effect except that it can carry and drive tree spirits. Because tree spirits are no longer normal creatures, they can exist as summoned creatures.
However, there is a prerequisite for it, which is that the other party must be willing, or be beaten to the point of being unable to resist, in order to successfully take the other party in, and then sign a summoning contract for future use.
Now looking at the appearance of these flame-skinned tree spirits, they don't look like they are willing to go with Li Wei.
So Levi simply used a few purification scrolls and life potions on the wood elf just now, and even released auxiliary magic such as false life and bear's tenacity on him. You can't faint again now, can you?
As expected, the wood elf was obviously much more energetic. He first glanced gratefully at Virginia who was supporting him, and then looked at Levi up and down, especially pausing on his ears. The wood elf seemed to have done the same.
What decision.
He stood up with force, and then began to shout at the flame-skinned tree spirits. Levi could only judge that it seemed to be a special language or spell, but the specific principle was unknown to him.
But that was not important. What was important was that he soon saw that the mood of the flame-skinned tree spirits seemed to have stabilized a lot. They all walked up to Li Wei and sat on the ground.
Needless to say, Li Wei activated the dryad's singing flute at the right time, and the light flickered, and the huge flame-skinned dryads were taken into the dryad's singing flute one after another.
Dryad Flute (Rare Item-Blue-Rare):
Effect 1, it can carry and drive tree spirit creatures, the current upper limit is 4/10.
It includes 4 flameskin dryads (level 5 - rare), with skills: resist charge, woodland adaptation, immune to fear, induce fear, fire attack, fire resistance, enhanced critical attack, anti-infantry, tough tree body, wildfire aura
.
Forget about the others, what Levi is mainly interested in is the last wildfire aura skill.
Once activated, all friendly forces within a small area will increase their fire resistance by 10-20, which will be quite useful when fighting against demons, demons, or simply enemy fireballs and other magics.
And its consumption is very low. Basically, small-scale battles can be started from the beginning to the end without any problems.
Of course, not everyone can use this piece of equipment smoothly. The requirements for wearing it are very low, but if you want to summon it, you need a lot of attributes.
For example, now, summoning the flame-skinned tree elf requires 15 points of intelligence and level 10. Virginia and the wood elf may not be able to use it, so they gave this opportunity to him.
Although he didn't expect to get much benefit from this at first, and this benefit was not particularly helpful to Li Wei's subordinates, now his mood has indeed become better because of it.
At this time, the wood elf also had a brief and quick communication with Virginia. He bowed to Levi very solemnly: "Lord Levi, the Asrais of Orion Camp, I owe you a favor again."
Saying this, he presented a bark scroll with both hands: "This is the tree song that can drive the tree elves. Together with the flute, they can be used as my current thank you gift. When I return to the Orion camp, I will definitely
I will report this matter to my people."
Last time they were fighting against the beastman hero named Four Horns. Unexpectedly, a few days later, they owed each other a second favor.
Levi thought for a while and handed both things backhand to Sefa: "I think you need it more than me."
The wood elf didn't express anything about this. Anyway, he gave it to the other party. As for who the other party would give it to, that had nothing to do with him.
Virginia didn't care, because the top priority was to rescue the other wood elves together.
So the one who is really most surprised is naturally Sefa.
Although she had to admit that this prop and the flame-skinned tree spirits were very attractive to her and Sonia, she still flatly refused.
"I'm sorry, Lord Levi, I didn't do anything at all. I'm sorry that I can't accept such a precious gift of thanks from my wood elf friends."
"Haha, what if a friend gave you a gift because he was worried about your safety?"
Sefa was speechless now.
Although the contact time was very, very brief, in a sense, she considered the other person as her friend, even half a teacher.
She and Sonia had traveled extensively and had seen a lot, but after communicating with each other before, she realized that the other party was far better than her in many aspects.
So in the end she could only nod helplessly, and then thank Li Wei.
Anyway, Levi originally planned to hire himself and Sonia to go to Thorn Town to clean up the evil creatures for him. At worst, he should take the initiative to do more things for him!
Seeing that Sefa no longer refused, Levi smiled and stuffed the thing into her hand. With this first step, things would be much easier in the future.
Sonia's side is more difficult to deal with. Her family's tradition will not be easily changed unless her entire family is defeated by Dracula.
But that possibility is too low, infinitely close to zero.
Lucia has already said that Dracula has no interest in them at all, and the ruler of Sylvania does not seem to have any special thoughts about them, otherwise they would not have allowed their family's reputation to be passed down for hundreds of years.
Already.
Vampires won't deal with them, and other evil alien races will probably be even less interested.
So let’s deal with Sefa first, and then start with her.
The situation between the two of them seems to be quite similar to that of Donna and Elegy. With Sefa as a good friend as an assist, it will definitely be much better than my own random thoughts.
After spending a little time, Levi and the others walked out of the still burning woods.
Although the previous Bull Demon King did not use magic, he obviously used a lot of props such as blazing glue. In addition, the trees here contain rich magical energy. If they are not burned, they will not be so easy to destroy once they are burned.
dropped.
So Li Wei estimated that this place might have to burn for a few more days.
When they saw them coming out, Cindy, Elegy and others immediately gathered around and asked about their welfare.
They know Li Wei's ability and know that nothing will happen to him, but in the end, they will only feel at ease when they see him return in person.
After a quick glance, Li Wei found that his subordinates were almost fully supplied and were basically back to full strength.
Similarly, Luna has also returned, and all kinds of trophies have been collected.
Li Wei motioned to his men to take care of the wood elves first, and then handed over the deserved spoils to Virginia, Sefa, Sonia and others.
As for himself, he checked the series of system prompts.
He was not surprised at all about the hearty victory. It was natural for his subordinates to advance. His focus was mainly on the chessboard from the Yin Red Knight.
After so many victories, it was finally successfully promoted to Epic level.
The biggest flaw of the original chessboard was that each time it was summoned, it required charging points. However, charging points were not only rare, but also related to the improvement of its quality, so Levi hardly used it a few times.
But now its effect has fundamentally changed.
The first few summons every day only require a certain amount of magic points, and no charging points are required. Charging points will only be needed when the number of summons is exhausted.
Judging from the current situation, he can summon 1 level 6 and 3 level 5 reinforcements for free every day, and the number of other low and mid-level reinforcements is even greater. This effect can be said to be very good.
Then the original leadership +1 was increased to 3. There was nothing to say about this. Li Wei didn't think much of it anymore. His title of city lord directly increased his leadership by 500 points.
But the next newly added skill - Hold the position, is more powerful. This is the same skill as Zhou Miyin's, but it has a wider range.
Once used, the defense and magic resistance of friendly forces within the range will be improved, and they will also have stronger resistance against charges, knockbacks, knockbacks, etc.
This can be regarded as a slight compensation for the shortcomings of the Silver Light Guards who may be knocked away when fighting against today's tauren.
However, Li Wei felt that this was not a long-term solution after all.
As a melee unit, the efficiency of the Silver Guards in killing enemies and gaining experience points is not very high, and they don't know how many more battles they will have to go through before they can make further progress.
He could either find a way to speed up the process, or simply try to go behind Mikaela's side and recruit some Phoenix Guards, or maybe he would have to find some foreign aid to resist the line.
Although powerful units such as tauren are not seen every day, they are not so widespread. In most cases, the silver guards + holding the position are enough, but he also has to be prepared, right?
After making the plan, the wood elves on the other side have almost returned to normal. There are many priests here, and they can't die even if they want to.
After communicating with Virginia, the previous male elf saluted Levi again, then ran into the shadows and disappeared in an instant.
He is the strongest and highest-status being among the survivors, and he is also an assassin who believes in the guardian of the wood elves, Loik.
Therefore, at this critical moment, no matter from any aspect, it is most appropriate for him to return to the Orion camp to report the news.
As for the other wood elves, in order to repay the favor of saving their lives and the favor of revenge, they all joined Li Wei's team.
Coupled with the wood elves who had taken refuge in Levi before, they could now gather together a small team.
Some of them are woodland guards (level 3) who use enchanted or poisoned arrows, and some are deep forest scouts (level 4) who are good at ambush and reconnaissance, but what they have in common is that they all have skills such as woodland warfare and mobile shooting.
Without Li Wei's deliberate training, they can become a good fighting force immediately.
Li Wei planned to temporarily arrange them with the tigresses to act as scouts before the war and as shooters during the war.
The number of people is just a little smaller.
But it doesn't matter, I believe that once the Orion camp knows what happened here, Levi will immediately have new recruitment opportunities.
In fact, except for the drow and dark elves who are in the evil camp, they often don't pay much attention to repayment and face.
Other sub-races, whether they are high elves, wood elves, blood elves, wing elves, sea elves, etc., all dislike being in debt to others.
At the same time, Li Wei also figured out what was probably happening here.
It turned out that at the beginning, the wood elves were attacked by a large army led by a beastman shaman.
The opponent had a larger number and also had many units that were good at woodland warfare, so the relatively small number of wood elves were almost blocked.
They had just transformed this place into a magic forest, which cost a lot of money, and many of the defense facilities were not perfect yet.
After they expended a lot of effort and paid a heavy price, they almost killed the opponent's large army. When they were about to kill the opponent's shaman, they found that suddenly there was fire in all directions.
Reminiscent of the fact that beastmen often burned forests in the past, they immediately realized that the beastmen in front of them were probably just bait.
Knowing that there was no way to survive, in order to prevent the beastmen from succeeding, the wood elves desperately destroyed the central hub of the enchanted forest, so that the beastmen could not transform it into a blood domain, or create a magic rock.
Those special flame-skinned tree spirits were some of the warriors responsible for this matter during their lifetimes. Because they were the strongest during their lifetime and were close to the energy hub, they eventually became the special flame-skinned tree spirits.
After listening, most people, including Li Wei, couldn't help but sigh, and Sefa secretly made up her mind to not let down their power.
Next comes a more important question. Originally, Virginia was scheduled to meet with the reinforcements from the wood elves, and then go together to capture the black iron mine occupied by the undead. Regardless of victory or defeat, she would go to the gathering with Levi.
Dirty pit.
But now that the temple has been crippled and the wood elves have been nearly wiped out, do they still want to go to the black iron mine?
