After this small episode ended, the large army continued to march, and Levi also temporarily left Khalida, preparing to go to other God-chosen heroes to try to obtain some information.
In fact, this is his habitual behavior every time he arrives in a new place.
There is indeed a lot of knowledge stored in Lilith's divinity, but the knowledge involved is often too high-end. Even if it is not about the gods and demon lords, it is basically quite famous.
For example, the legends of various races, or special existences like Master Yufeng.
If it were an ordinary monster, she would rarely cover it in detail.
It's not that she really doesn't understand, it's just that she doesn't put everything into the divinity entrusted to him.
Although the information on the forum comes from a variety of sources, it is too watery and often requires him to expend a lot of effort to screen and confirm.
In contrast, asking local God-chosen heroes often has higher credibility.
Of course, doing so often requires him to pay some price, and the other party will not tell him anything particularly important or secret.
Of course they will only keep the really good things to themselves.
But this time it was a little different, because Levi showed off his flying sword before, and many people wanted one, and Khalida's intimate attitude towards him was obvious to all.
Another very crucial point is that yesterday Ramses, who was very famous in Laemia and had a high military position, was expelled overnight.
Rumor has it that because he offended Li Wei, he was kicked out by Khalida even after being beaten violently.
In addition, someone saw yesterday that Levi came back with Khalida, which inevitably made them think too much.
Therefore, wherever Li Wei went, not to mention a warm welcome, it was not far behind. They were very generous in telling him the information he needed.
Although most of them were repetitive or useless, they still allowed him to understand the classes, strengths and weaknesses of many monsters, etc. This was all valuable experience they had gained through many actual battles.
Li Wei also selectively reported some information, which was considered a courtesy, so everyone was quite happy after this exchange.
Then towards the end, Levi received valuable news. There was a guy who wanted to cooperate with him to destroy a group of vampire pirates.
Vampires and vampire pirates may sound similar, but in fact their fighting styles are completely different.
The vampires on land are nothing more than massive cannon fodder + a handful of elites + a handful of air force, plus some vampires who use magic.
But vampire pirates are different. They have muskets and cannons on their ships. Some powerful vampire pirates may also have zombie sailors manipulating these weapons.
Moreover, in naval battles, the battle must be more three-dimensional.
Many vampire pirates have a special attack method, which is to make some zombies that have been transformed by magic and turned into bombs to lurk under the opponent's ship along the sea and directly blow up the opponent's ship.
In addition, vampires can fly and can also act as air force, so once they fight vampire pirates on the sea, they will be hard to guard against the opponent's various methods.
Among the many famous pirate forces, only the dark elves can compete with them.
Other Norscan barbarians, snakemen, or Nippon pirates are no match for them.
If Li Wei was asked to lead his own team to fight with them, he would not be interested for the time being, because he and his subordinates had no experience in naval battles at all.
But if you're working with other people, that's totally fine.
He doesn't even care about trophies and the like, just treat it as training experience!
So after confirming some relevant details, he readily agreed to the other party.
While he was busy, the large army also kept moving forward.
The glory of Nagash, where the Silver Blood Army is entrenched, is a mountainous area that stretches for hundreds of miles. Even Khalida, who has fought with it many times, still doesn't know where their base camp is.
So this was destined to be a short journey after they set off from Lahmia City.
The reason why she not only dispatched so many troops but also recruited a large number of divinely chosen heroes was probably due to this consideration.
She also needs their respective special abilities to help her find the target faster.
As the large army continued to advance, the surrounding scenery began to change. The area under Khalida's rule was basically a jungle, and there was nothing to talk about.
But when they crossed the border and headed towards their target, things quickly became different.
The flowers, plants and trees around them all looked decayed and decayed. It was not due to lack of water or something, but simply affected by evil magic.
The road is full of rugged gravel, which is extremely unfavorable for the march of cavalry, tanks and other units.
No wonder Khalida brought few skeleton cavalry or skeleton chariots. With their weak strength, they might be knocked to pieces even after traveling for dozens of miles without the enemy attacking.
Continuing forward, a large number of hidden and filthy swamps began to appear on the road.
Those swamps are not particularly obvious, and are often covered by various phytoplankton. If you are not careful, you will fall directly into them.
After walking less than ten miles, Li Wei saw with his own eyes at least forty or fifty times that troops fell into it.
Although they appear to be only a few meters in diameter, their depth is actually unknown. There seems to be no problem if ten or eight skeleton soldiers are installed in one pit.
At the same time, the sewage in the swamp is also extremely corrosive. When the skeleton soldiers were fished out, they basically turned into scattered bones and all hung up.
Even if the graveyard knights riding on the skin snakes fall in, they will basically end up seriously injured.
They are pretty good, but if a heavily armored dwarf fell in, with their weight, they would probably be killed by corrosion and suffocation before they could be fished out.
Although the loss of troops was only a drop in the bucket for their tens of thousands of troops, and the aborigines seemed to be used to it, so their morale was not affected in any way.
But many of the God-chosen heroes felt very aggrieved. This was completely different from what they had expected, where they would have an absolute advantage and kill all the way!
Li Wei finally understood why Khalida, despite having tens of thousands of troops, had spent so many years still unable to completely conquer this place and wipe out the Silver Blood Army.
We have only gone less than a tenth of the way, and we have already become this virtuous. Who knows what traps the Silver Blood Army is preparing behind?
Unless Khalida finds the opponent's lair, relies on her legendary strength, and leads her most elite subordinates to carry out beheading tactics.
Otherwise, under normal circumstances, it would be really difficult for her to completely deal with the other party.
However, those skeleton soldiers played the role of cannon fodder quite perfectly. With them in the front, none of Li Wei's subordinates suffered a similar fate.
But he did not take it lightly, and he even did not let Luna take the huntresses out for reconnaissance, which was rare, but followed him.
In this way, no matter what accident happens, he will come to the rescue immediately.
Just think about it and you will know that when tens of thousands of troops were dispatched, how could the Silver Blood Army not react at all?
After a few more instructions, Levi approached Khalida and wanted to ask her if she had any other backup methods.
But before he really got close to the opponent, a high-pitched and slightly excited scream sounded: "Enemy attack!"
Upon hearing this movement, many of the God-chosen heroes closest to that direction had already taken the lead in moving before Khalida could issue any orders.
They had accumulated a lot of anger along the way, and it was just a good time to vent it!
Naturally, Levi immediately ran to join in the fun. He wanted to see what kind of response the other party adopted.
Then he was very surprised to find that those who came were not vampires or undead, but a large number of beastmen.
He was immediately confused as to why they appeared here and seemed to act as the younger brothers of the Silver Blood Army?
Generally speaking, beastmen don't like to deal with the undead, because they are bloodthirsty and carnivorous, killing and destroying is on the one hand, and satisfying their own appetites is on the other.
But fighting the undead will not satisfy them in either aspect.
The corpses of the undead are not ordinary carrion, but contain evil magic, and it is really possible to eat them to death.
Similarly, the skeleton soldiers and structures under Khalida's command cannot satisfy them.
And although in Li Wei's view, most beastmen are idiots, they are still innately cunning, that is, they know how to avoid the strong and attack the weak.
He had never even heard of, let alone seen, the current situation where less than a thousand middle- and low-level beastmen dared to attack an army of tens of thousands.
But it did happen. Whether it was a horned beast, a horned beast, a big horned beast or a tauren, or those mutated war dogs and razor beasts, they all stared at the red eyes at this moment, facing dozens of people without fear.
The enemy, who was twice as large as ourselves, launched a charge.
Even though quite a few of them were killed by long-range attacks such as bows, arrows or magic from many God-chosen heroes, they did not hesitate or flinch at all.
Could it be that these guys are controlled by vampire magic?
With this question in mind, Levi summoned some shadow elements, rat messengers, monitor archons, etc., and asked them to scout around in their own different ways.
But until these beastmen were almost killed, they didn't find any undead around.
Levi felt even more strange now. Isn't this completely unreasonable?
At this moment, a divinely chosen hero on the right suddenly sighed: "Levi, these beastmen are really weird. Although it is normal for beastmen to have mutations, there are eight-legged foxes and three-headed wild boars."
, this is the first time I’ve seen it.”
Levi raised his eyebrows, and he immediately drove the griffin to circle the battlefield, and then he discovered that there were too many differences among these beastmen.
There are different opinions on the exact origin of the beastmen, but one thing is certain, except for those who have gods behind them, or who have naturalized the good camp, most of the remaining evil beastmen choose to worship devils, devils or other evil alien beings, and
Desire to get stronger power from the other party.
For this reason, they usually choose the crudest, most direct method with the highest success rate, which is blood sacrifice.
Not to mention, in this way, many evil beings such as the devil will indeed respond to them.
But to obtain power from the devil, blood sacrifices alone are not enough. They often come with various side effects, which may cause extreme mutations in the body and mind of the beastmen.
Those with multiple heads and multiple legs are very common.
If they do not perform sacrificial rituals, but stay in some evil places polluted by demons or demons for a long time, they may also mutate.
But no matter what, the rate of mutation among these beastmen in front of us is too high.
Even some rubbish horned beasts have obvious mutations. With their strength not much better than that of kobolds, where do they get the strength to perform blood sacrifices?
Sacrifice the goblins? Are there really demons willing to accept such sacrifices?
And I have never heard that this area was once defiled by demons.
Is it possible that Nagash still has some residual power here?
While he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard someone below muttering: "Hey? Why do these beastmen still have dimension stones?"
In the flash of lightning, Levi felt that he seemed to have touched something, and he descended directly: "Can you show me?"
Since I had communicated information with Li Wei before, we were already mostly acquaintances, so the other party did not refuse.
After taking a closer look, Levi confirmed that this was not an ordinary dimensional stone fragment, but a carefully polished piece of special ammunition specially used for slings.
Besides kobolds, which race likes slings the most? The answer is ratmen!
Although using warpstone as ammunition is actually very luxurious, it is almost equivalent to humans using silver or even gold to make arrows.
But combined with what he met yesterday, the rat-man hero chosen by the gods named Wang Jierui, and the specially-modified rat-men under him, Levi was almost certain.
It is very likely that the rat people of the Rotten Clan have a large lair in these mountains, specifically used to transform beasts and beastmen.
The severely mutated beastmen in front of us are probably their modified experimental subjects.
Now that they have sent out these experiments to carry out harassment, will they have more methods in the future?
Of course it is for sure. Khalida's attitude towards the rat people has always been only to kill.
Her large-scale conquest not only threatened the Silver Blood Army, but also threatened the Corrupt Clan!
After asking around for a while, Levi found that others had also gained something, not only the sling, but also a few bullets from the dimensional gun.
It is estimated that the beastmen also touched something before being released by the ratmen.
The Rotten Clan among the Skaven are good at transforming various monsters, and the Skryre Clan is good at using warpstone as materials and energy to create various dangerous weapons.
As one of the four major clans, it is quite normal for them to communicate with each other.
With these special ammunition, Levi flew directly towards Khalida, and then he discovered that at some point, a large group of special beings had appeared around her.
Some were dressed as generals, while others were wearing hooded robes and holding staffs. Not surprisingly, they were mages.
Although they still have the bodies of mummies, their armor, weapons and various accessories on their bodies are all emitting a faint magical light from the inside out.
Moreover, the sharp-eyed Levi also noticed that the generals among them all had the same reborn Ouroboros and Sun Scarab that the caravan leader gave him before.
This means that with these two pieces of equipment alone, they can recover up to 4,000 health points per day.
If the other equipment on their bodies is also of the same level, then their comprehensive combat capabilities cannot be underestimated.
There were nearly 20 such warriors present.
Based on their racial characteristics, even if their talent potential is limited, their level may not be too low for hundreds or thousands of years.
Although he couldn't see clearly the dozen or so mage units next to him under the cover of their hoods, he could appear here with them. Thinking about it, he knew that their status should all be at the same level.
As we all know, in most cases, the destructive power and killing speed of mages of the same level are far better than those of warriors.
Levi also roughly understood that they might be Khalida's real trump card in this expedition.
The others, whether they are skeleton soldiers, mummies, those rather conspicuous bone giants, or the numerous divinely chosen heroes, are probably just disguises.
However, he should not be included. By now, there is an unknown gap between him and the ordinary God-chosen heroes in terms of combat effectiveness.
Now these mages were huddled around Khalida, pointing at the multiple beastman corpses on the ground. Apparently they also discovered something was wrong.
Without even looking back, Khalida just waved her hand, motioning for him to come over and take a look.
In fact, she had already known what the other party had just done, and she also knew that he was here now, otherwise the guards on the perimeter would not have let him in easily without her order.
If she didn't do this, she would have been annoyed to death by the chosen heroes in the city.
Then Levi saw an extremely special chaos war dog among the crowd.
Except for one dog head, the head on the left is that of a gray wolf, and the other one is simply that of a lioness.
No matter how much it mutates, it will never mutate into this state. It is a Chaos War Dog, not a Chimera.
"Levi, what do you think?"
To be honest, even in her long life, this was the first time she had encountered such a situation.
Levi just threw a few warpstone ammunition over: "I think they are rat men from the Corrupt Clan."
Saying this, he lowered his body, ignoring the blood and stench, and searched for something in the other person's lush hair.
Within seconds, he made a discovery.
He casually used the lowest level of fire magic to burn the nearby hair, and then showed it to Khalida: "The dimensional stone is the first evidence, and this is the second."
Khalida subconsciously looked in the direction of his fingers, and then she discovered some extremely obvious stitching marks.
The other party seemed to want to artificially create a three-headed dog, but it was obvious that he had made something wrong.
Khalida suddenly gritted her teeth: "Damn it, these despicable ratmen! The disaster that Nagash caused was because of the ratmen's help!"
The surrounding generals and mages were all talking about it for a while.
Without the help of those ratmen, Nagash might not have been able to spread the poison and curse to so many places so quickly, directly leading to the death of tens of millions of people.
Although based on the nature of the rat people, it didn't take long for them to stab Nagash in the back, which can be regarded as a great contribution to the coalition's defeat of Nagash.
But no one, including Khalida, thought that this matter would really end here.
This time it happened that old and new hatreds came together, so they couldn't help but be angry.
Khalida waved her short cane vigorously: "Speed up the march and cross the mountain twenty miles ahead. You will each lead a team and search for the hiding places of the vampires and rat-men with all your strength!"
Many generals agreed and left quickly.
Looking at their quick and flexible movements, Levi felt that except for a limited number of women such as Elegy, Cindy, Maltis and Luna, others, including Sonia and Alduin, might be
Both are far inferior to each other.
I don't know how much of it is due to their own strength, and how much of it is due to the many equipments they have.
The mages were still staying by Khalida's side, seeming to be waiting for her orders.
At the same time, Li Wei also noticed that there was more than one mage looking at him secretly.
Because their eye sockets were all wavering and glowing like candlelight, Li Wei couldn't tell what their attitude was for a while, and the scene seemed a bit awkward for a while.
But fortunately, Khalida was right next to her and explained: "Levi, these are the priests of the Funeral Sect. They are all very interested in your magic, especially the summoning magic, because they are also good at it."
Levi became slightly interested: "Oh, I wonder what they are good at summoning?"
Hearing him ask this, the slightly dry and hoarse voices of the priests suddenly sounded.
After talking a lot, Li Wei roughly knew that most of them were good at summoning various monsters and elements, and many of them also mastered advanced summoned monsters that Li Wei didn't yet possess.
After this magic reaches an advanced level, it is basically inevitable that it will have a deeper connection with other worlds.
Many summoned creatures will first look at their alignment, race, etc., before deciding whether to respond to the summons.
Based on the special characteristics of these priests' own races, it is difficult for them to summon good creatures such as angels, and they do not want to summon evil creatures such as demons, so they tend to summon various neutral and powerful monsters.
Then they chose dinosaurs, such as Triceratops, Raptor, Ichthyosaurus, Ancient Giant Turtle, Plesiosaur, etc.
Hearing this, Levi's heart suddenly moved. He had just told Khalida yesterday that he wanted her to help the high elves in the naval battle, but today she specially found these priests who were good at summoning.
Plesiosaurs, ichthyosaurs, etc. are obviously good at water fighting!
It seemed that what he said yesterday really moved her.
In addition, due to its faction characteristics, creatures that are common in the desert such as giant scorpions, rattlesnakes, vultures, monitor lizards and spiders are also within its summoning range.
Of course, those who can respond to their call are basically enhanced and mutated varieties, not ordinary low-level cannon fodder.
Seeing how Li Wei nodded repeatedly and looked very interested, Khalida couldn't help but smile: "If you are interested, just make a copy from them. I don't think they will refuse."
Naturally, Levi would not refuse. Triceratops and the like sounded much stronger than most of his summons.
And those dinosaurs that are good at water fighting will definitely come in handy later.
But before he could exchange his thoughts on the summons with the other party, another alarm sounded.
This time it was the center of the army that was attacked.
When Levi and Khalida arrived, the opponent had almost been eliminated, because it was just some low-level zombies and skeletons crawling out of the swamp.
But after looking at each other, they both felt that things might not be that simple.
Sure enough, the army continued to advance, and there were more and more unexpected situations on the road. Undead creatures were constantly being awakened, and occasionally some beastmen appeared and attacked them.
Although there were only a few hundred of them each time, and it was basically impossible to cause many casualties to them, the speed of the troops' march was inevitably affected.
There was no need for Li Wei to speak now, anyone could tell that the other party was probably trying to delay time.
Although she had known for a long time that things would not be smooth sailing, Khalida was still somewhat agitated.
She could only order that if there was a similar enemy harassment next time, only a part of the troops would be left to deal with it, while the other troops would speed up the advance.
Since the Silver Blood Army wants to escape, they must hurry up!
In this way, the impact has indeed become much smaller.
But the army's front line was inevitably stretched a lot.
Li Wei couldn't help but secretly raise his heart and ask his subordinates to be more cautious.
Since the opponent knows how to use this method to delay time, if their own side neglects to defend because of this, is it possible for them to strike hard?
As for himself, he and Cindy stayed beside Khalida with some summoned creatures.
On the one hand, I want to continue to exchange experiences with those priests.
On the other hand, if the enemy launched a surprise attack, who would be the first target? Of course it would only be Khalida.
Even if the rat people are full of hatred for Khalida, it is unlikely that they will fight tooth and nail, or even if they fight hard, they don't have enough money.
More threats may still come from those vampires.
The presence of himself and Cindy means that there are a large number of celestial creatures, which are suitable for fighting against enemies.
In fact, if it were in its prime, Khalida, as a legendary hero, would naturally not have to worry about it.
But falling into the trap of the Viper Queen, being in a magic circle, and having lost so much blood, Li Wei was not sure whether she had returned to her full strength after this night of recuperation.
After reaching the legendary level, many injuries no longer seem to be easily resolved by ordinary healing spells.
When the Dragon Prince fought against the legend of the dark elves, he took a break for half a month.
And even if she encounters a surprise attack, she is not in any danger. If he just throws in some small magic to assist her, he can gain some favor, right?
For a rich woman like Khalida who has a good personality, strong strength, and a good mind, and more importantly, is very generous to him, he has nothing to be embarrassed about doing a little better.
In order to be secretive, he specially asked the angels to put on hoods and pretend to be ordinary soldiers.
Khalida did not refuse. Although she claimed to be powerful and should not be in any danger, as a queen, it is normal for her to have some guards around her.
At least these celestial beings are much better looking than the mummies under her hands.
Especially this little girl named Cindy, the more she watched, the more she liked it.
And if she read it correctly, she also possesses divinity, coming from Sigma among the human gods.
Coupled with Levi and Luna's night elf, it seems that more gods have invested in Levi than I imagined.
