Chapter 405: Blood Drinking Sword and Night Owl Yakong
Chapter 405 Blood-Drinking Sword and Night Owl Akon
As expected, several priests temporarily acted as guides along the way.
No matter whether there is a swamp, a mountain or a plain in front of them, they don't dodge, they just go straight through.
Seeing this, Levi felt a little relieved. Even if Harpulos reported to him that the poisonous scorpion guards they sent out were discovered and destroyed by the enemy one after another, his mood did not fluctuate much.
Khalida has a clear plan, so he can naturally save more energy.
After thinking about it, he fell a few steps behind and let the animal-shaped scarab make a big hole where the rat-man had passed by before.
Then he saw the criss-crossing tunnels below.
Good guy, no wonder even the tomb demons and other undead can use their tunnels to launch raids.
How many years have these ratmen from the Corrupt Clan been hiding here?
With their help, it's no wonder that Khalida has never been able to find the Silver Blood Army's home before, because they might also be hiding in some mouse holes!
In this case, what the fake Edward said before may not be all lies.
After thinking about it for a while, Li Wei returned to the main army.
Not to mention, the path pointed by the priests was also very accurate, because it didn't take long for Levi to feel that the secret marks he had left on those rat men were echoing from afar.
It was obvious that he was very close to those rat men.
Now he felt more at ease, so he still had time to sort out the gains from this battle.
In addition to the upgrade or advancement of the subordinates, the main gain comes from the two hero units.
Although Edward himself is very good, his equipment is very extraordinary. He directly contributed one purple and two blue.
The two blue pieces of equipment are named Ball of Vitality and Ball of Energy, each of which can increase the life and magic limit by 50 points, and are also part of a certain combination of treasures.
The purple one is called the Blood Drinking Sword. As the name suggests, this two-handed sword has not only a very low attack power, but also two special effects.
Drinking blood, after causing damage to the enemy, it can restore the holder's health by 8%-18% of the damage.
Blood Shield, if the holder's life is full, these excess treatments will be converted into a temporary energy shield, which can last up to 30 seconds, with a maximum limit of 300 points.
The only restriction is that it must attack living creatures with blood.
If it is undead, elemental, or plants, it will be invalid.
But despite this, its value is still very high, so Li Wei naturally gave them all to Elegy immediately.
If this is combined with the Hoth Shining Gem, the Reborn Ouroboros, and other equipment on her body, if the enemy does not have legal troops to interfere, she may be able to directly activate Wushuang among Tier 3 or even Tier 4 troops.
Already.
On the other hand, the ratman named Tuqi was only given two daggers made of warpstone, as well as unused arrows and venom.
The highest level is only blue, which does not match its difficulty level.
But there is nothing we can do. Most of the rat people's magic is related to plague, and they are really not good at making serious magic equipment.
In addition, it is a pity that after several attempts, Levi found that he could not collect the souls of any heroic units with the existing nine volumes of Nagash alone.
It is estimated that the fragments of the hero's spirit are already part of the opponent's soul.
He had originally guessed whether a heroic unit could be born among this special Death Guard?
Normal constructs cannot gain experience points by killing enemies. If they want to advance, they can only replace parts or something.
But Death Guard and God Guard are special cases. They cannot replace parts. Once they are manufactured, they are an inseparable whole.
Similarly, there is the Terracotta Warriors and Horses series in Sinian.
So if you want to make them stronger, you can only put some thought into the raw materials at the beginning of manufacturing.
It's a pity that this idea cannot be successful for the time being. We can only see if other volumes can be collected in the future to see if there are any changes.
After sighing for a while, he probably saw that Levi had finished here, and Khalida also came over on a leather snake, twisting and turning.
Although her manners were almost impeccable, he still couldn't help laughing every time he saw this scene.
No matter how much I like snake-like creatures, this thing is really not a particularly good mount.
Just as he was muttering, Levi heard Khalida say: "Levi, I want your help to make more Death Guards. I will prepare the materials for you, just like before."
Li Wei immediately responded very readily: "No problem, I wonder how much you need?"
With the Nine Volumes of Nagash in hand, making Death Guards is a fool's errand. As long as there are enough materials, it will only take a few hours to make 100 of them.
At the same time, as he continued to create, he vaguely felt that if the materials were enough and the times were enough, he might not be able to truly understand the manufacturing method from above, and even have the ability to collect soul crystals.
Even if Lilith takes it back by then, he will already have mastered the most important thing.
Moreover, Khalida, a rich woman, provided 3 materials and only needed 1 finished product, and the remaining two were naturally his labor expenses.
Khalida pondered for a moment: "For level 4, each type costs 200 per week, and for level 5, it costs 100 per week. How about that?"
Levi was a little surprised immediately. He didn't expect Khalida to have such a big appetite.
There are 4 types of level 4 and 1 type of level 5, totaling 900. Once accepted, it means that he has to spend a certain amount of time almost every day to serve her exclusively.
Although in theory the more he produces, the more he will gain, his energy is limited.
And why does she need so many? To supplement the combat power of Lahmia City?
But she didn't seem to be very interested in it before. After all, she preferred snakes and graveyard knights.
Is it possible that because of today's battle, the concept has changed?
Seeing that Levi was obviously hesitant, Khalida was also a little embarrassed. She knew that she had indeed gone too far.
But there was no way, she had just suffered great humiliation, and she desperately wanted to change the current situation.
"Levi, I know my request is a bit excessive. So, don't be embarrassed, just do what you can. Prioritize helping me make some flying eagle-shaped ones. I will never let your work go in vain."
"In addition to advanced summoned monsters and Amintok's Web, I will let the priests sort out their experience in magic."
"After this battle is over, I will prepare an extra big gift for you."
Khalida has already mentioned this, how can Levi refuse?
He just became more and more curious, why did she seem so anxious?
Hearing Li Wei's inquiry, Khalida couldn't help but feel a little ashamed and angry, but then she thought about it. When she was trapped in the Bone Temple, Li Wei had already seen her most humiliating scene.
In comparison, these are nothing now.
"I want to tell those chosen heroes that Lahmia City is not without a future."
She still can't calm down completely because those guys who betrayed her said that her city of Lahmia has no future.
After reaching the fifth level of Graveyard Knight, there are no new units, and the weekly limit is so small that it is impossible for them to recruit.
So even if you really offend her, there will be no serious consequences. At worst, you will have to find another place to develop again.
Thinking about it this way, did Ramesses, whom she valued a lot before, betray her out of the same consideration? Or this is at least one of the reasons.
Although the Beetle Prince has a bad reputation, the various beetle-shaped structures under his command are second to none among the Tomb Kings, and they are indeed slightly better than her Tomb Knights in terms of combat effectiveness.
In addition to being determined to increase the number of graveyard knights and other games open to the outside world, she also wants to seek foreign aid.
If Li Wei is willing to help, he can make up for Lahmia City's current weaknesses to a considerable extent.
As for the money spent, she didn't care.
She didn't even think about taking the manufacturing method away from Li Wei.
The dragon staff trade between her and Cathay has lasted for thousands of years, and she has never thought of buying the manufacturing method, because money is of little use to her, and she is not short of money.
But through this kind of transaction, she was able to maintain a good relationship with the other party, and she could still understand the deal.
Levi also didn't know what to say. He had never thought about this before, but it was indeed true.
And it's not just Khalida's city of Lahmia.
The most obvious ones are those God-chosen heroes who originally chose goblins or halflings, which are relatively weak races. The upper limit of the troops they can hire from their own race is really very low.
But of course he has no reason to disagree. This is a matter of mutual benefit. Anyway, Khalida also said that he can do his best.
After confirming the general situation, Khalida thanked her again, and then explained the current situation to Li Wei.
Just as he guessed, the priests were driving their insect-shaped familiars to follow the remaining auras of the rat people and vampires.
The reason why she didn't tell Li Wei before was because she was worried that there might be a traitor around.
But now that the traitors have basically been exposed, and the priests have caught each other's tail, there is no need to continue hiding.
Li Wei didn't have any dissatisfaction, after all, this was her army.
As long as the nine volumes of Nagash are his in the end, he doesn't particularly care about the process.
Seeing that Levi's expression didn't seem to be fake, Khalida felt a little relieved.
Levi is not only her savior, but also a person favored by the elves and gods. Maintaining a good relationship with him can only be good for her and the city of Lahmia.
After negotiating this matter, Khalida turned back to stare at the actions of the priests, while Levi calculated his approximate workload every day.
While making it for Khalida, he also wanted to leave some for himself.
Death Guards are extremely versatile, whether they are the lord of Thorn Town, Oostak City, or other villages, they will all need them.
And it can be expected that if he has any leftovers, the Red Brotherhood of Lotus, and even the Sun Knights and others will not reject them.
Although it will indeed be a bit boring to repeat it mechanically every day, there is nothing we can do about it. It is all for profit.
After probably making a plan, Levi also used the necessary magic every day to summon loyal servants and otherworldly allies in order to expand his summon list.
Similarly, this is also one of Cindy's daily tasks. If some powerful reinforcements can be summoned, it is likely to change the local war situation at a critical moment.
As the light flashed, Levi was also very happy, because he was very lucky today, and he summoned two new celestial creatures at once, and their strength was also very good, they were both level 5 troops.
The first is called the Flame Archon Ember Guard, and uses a two-handed flaming ax as its weapon.
He has high attack power, thick health, and relatively low defense. He is a typical berserker type.
In terms of skills, in addition to the common charges and sweeps used by warriors, he also has three special skills.
The first is Flame Bodyguard, which can greatly increase fire resistance, slightly increase other magic resistance, and can burn enemies who are too close to him.
Next is Flame Strike, which can strengthen the attack and cause continuous burning damage to the target.
Finally, there are embers. Every time an enemy is killed, the opponent's body will be burned by the flames, causing a small amount of damage to nearby enemies.
There is nothing special after that. His skill panel is obviously much simpler than most level 5 units, such as Avalon and so on.
There is a slight problem with the camp. He is chaotic neutral. Based on his nature, he may not be able to perfectly execute the orders given by Levi during the battle.
But as a consumable, he is undoubtedly very qualified.
And based on Li Wei's identity as a heavenly mystic master and his many skills for improving heavenly creatures, almost as soon as he appeared, he decided to bring his relatives and friends to work for Li Wei, so that Li Wei would never worry
A question of quantity.
Therefore, Li Wei decided that when necessary in the future, he would throw them directly into the place where the enemy was most concentrated to cause chaos.
They will definitely be very efficient when dealing with miscellaneous soldiers, such as ratmen.
The second one to respond to his call was also an archon, but it was a very rare beast-shaped archon - Night Owl Archon.
Its appearance is that of a giant owl about 3 meters tall with black and white feathers.
Its sharp claws, pointed beak and large round eyes all shone with silvery white light, indicating that it was a typical celestial creature.
Therefore, when it uses these natural weapons to attack, it will be regarded as a good weapon, which can cause additional damage to evils such as undead, demons and devils.
When necessary, its eyes can also emit sacred beams to cause harm to evil creatures.
It's just that this move looks very similar to Levi's Heavenly Gaze in appearance, but its actual effect is much weaker.
Then it also has skills such as animal conversation, animal comfort, animal charm, night vision and intimidation aura. Basically, their respective effects can be seen from the names.
Looking at its attribute panel again, Li Wei found that except for its agility, which was pretty good, it was not particularly ideal in other aspects.
In this way, its position among celestial creatures becomes more obvious.
It should be a flying reconnaissance unit similar to the one that monitors the air space, and is especially good at conducting reconnaissance at night.
However, it cannot replace the monitoring of Asia Air, because the core ability of monitoring Asia Air is to transmit information.
But it also has its own advantages. If the enemy also sends eagles and other flying animals for reconnaissance, its skills can be used perfectly.
By then, maybe it can not only instigate the opponent, but also help Li Wei follow the clues, find the opponent's location, and then launch a targeted attack.
Levi decided to put it together with the supervisory archons first, cooperate with each other, and see the situation first.
Seeing how easily Li Wei made a summoning contract with them, the priests who were watching eagerly were very envious.
So without Li Wei opening his mouth, they had already consciously joined in and actively shared their experiences in summoning magic.
Levi couldn't help but chuckle to himself. Although these guys had shared a lot with him out of respect for Khalida, they were still more or less secretive.
It was only now, after witnessing their own abilities in this area, that they really came over and wanted to hug their laps and learn a few tricks.
It's a pity that I can maintain such a good relationship with the heavenly creatures because of many coincidences.
Even if he gave all his experience to others, it would be impossible for these priests to successfully repeat it.
The most fundamental and direct issue is their race.
Unless they are celestial beings in the kingdom of the gods of Egypt, other celestial beings simply don't look down on mummies like them, okay?
But despite this, Li Wei still imparted some experience and gained something from the other party.
In addition to a few small magics that summon animals unique to the desert, the most valuable one is undoubtedly one of the covenant scrolls of the heron-headed sphinx.
According to what the other party said, the heron-headed griffin is a very special existence among many griffin subspecies, because their intelligence is often at least one level higher than that of their kind.
They are not aggressive, but love making magic items.
But based on their race, it is difficult for them to obtain enough materials.
Moreover, when ordinary humanoid races see them, they will basically just shout and kill them.
Because when in the wild, most griffins are quite ferocious, even cruel, their external impression has long been solidified, and they have been greatly affected by this.
Therefore, they will create some special magic scrolls to select mages who are not biased against them in order to achieve long-term cooperation.
That is, the mage provides the materials, they process them, and the finished product is handed over to the mage.
Yes, they only enjoy the process of making magical items, but they don't have much desire for them themselves.
Listening to this, does it mean that the mage will take advantage of it?
But in fact, there are other additional requirements.
Because the heron-headed griffons are highly intelligent, they also have certain requirements for the mage's camp and race.
At least they are kind, preferably humans or elves. Others are not unacceptable, but their attitudes are definitely different.
And the level should not be too high, because they worry that if the strength gap between the mage and themselves is too big, they may be fooled or exploited unknowingly.
For these reasons, not only are the priests in front of them useless, but Levi is also not qualified.
On the other hand, Sally, Sefa and the others should be okay.
The next most important thing is that mages need to protect them.
When invaded by foreign enemies, they will cast summoning magic and call for help from mages.
If the mage refuses to help, or they die in battle, the contract will naturally be terminated.
But 24 hours a day, who knows when they will encounter enemies? Who knows where their lair is?
And for ordinary priests who have not mastered teleportation spells, it is easy to go, but it may not be easy to come back.
What's more, the priests serve under Khalida. If there is a conflict over time, they will of course take Khalida's side as the main one.
The combination of these many reasons made this scroll look very precious, and in fact it was indeed very precious. However, none of the priests were willing to use it, and in the end they took advantage of Li Wei.
Of course, he didn't just use a few words of experience to get the other party for nothing, he also threw two flying eagle-type death guards to the other party in return.
This made the other party very happy, and he thanked Li Wei repeatedly.
There are only a few flying constructs, and the Tomb Kings faction has absolutely nothing of its own in this regard.
In the past, they either used carrion vultures or gargoyles, with occasionally a few griffons mixed in, which could be considered the absolute main force.
But these flying eagle guards not only have a good difference in strength, but they are also constructs, which makes them particularly precious.
Actually, it's hard to say which of these two gadgets is more valuable at the moment, because Levi still doesn't know what kind of magic items the heron-headed griffin can make.
But he doesn't care about this stuff, he can buy horse bones like a thousand pieces of gold.
With the current relationship between him and Khalida, they will definitely communicate frequently with each other in the future.
With this example in mind, if there is something good that Levi can use but they cannot use in the future, will these priests rush to contact him?
After thinking about it, Levi threw the scroll to Sally and told her to keep it for the time being. After the incident here was over and they were in the best condition, they would decide who to give it to for use.
In fact, he is more interested in summons at critical moments than the magic items that the other party may create.
Because the bear-headed envoys all master the fifth-level teleportation technique, if the heron-headed sphinx summons the mage contracted with it to a place hundreds of miles away, can Li Wei and the others also join in the fun?
Where is it?
Seeing Levi summoning two brand new celestial creatures, Cindy also laughed and joined in the fun.
Compared with Levi, her summon list is undoubtedly much simpler, but it is also more focused.
Except for her father, whether they are the Helm Angels or Shield Angels who usually serve as equipment, or the Guardian Angels and Battle Angels with extraordinary combat capabilities, they all belong to the angel family.
I don't know if they were all very lucky today. Soon Cindy also got something, but this time it was not an angel, but a snow-white tiger man.
At first glance, the opponent looked somewhat similar to the Tiger Messenger, but soon everyone around him was sure that they were completely different creatures.
Because compared to using sharp claws as weapons, most tiger warriors only have a piece of cloth wrapped around their waists, but the opponent has his whole body covered with it.
And he was carrying a spear in one hand, a short knife in the other, and a bow and arrow behind his back.
She is most likely a Celestial Tiger.
Yes, even though she was tightly wrapped, it was still easy to tell from her undulating curves and soft face that she was a female Khajiit, or should I say female?
Levi couldn't help but narrowed his eyes slightly. Cindy, who had never summoned a creature other than an angel, happened to summon the other party at this moment.
Khajiits are also considered big cats to a certain extent, and are equally good at hunting ratmen.
Moreover, the other party's dress is almost exactly the same as that of the tigresses currently staying in the black iron mine. Isn't this too much of a coincidence?
So silently, he passed a few words to Cindy by monitoring Ya Kong.
After saying hello to Cindy first, she quickly glanced around. When she saw Levi, her eyes clearly lit up.
But he did not communicate with Li Wei rashly, but immediately frowned: "Summoner, I smell the stench of rat men. Are the enemies this time those disgusting beasts?"
"Well, yes, we are chasing the rat men, but they are hiding in the underground passages, so it is not the time to start a war yet."
The female tiger-man frowned: "Is that so?"
Cindy nodded repeatedly: "So, if the war starts later, can you bring more companions to join the battle? I will pay enough!"
The female tiger-man's brows relaxed. She put one hand on her chest and saluted Cindy.
"That's it, Summoner, I am Zhumana, a tiger ranger in the heaven. I am willing to sign a contract with you to watch each other, and I will try my best to help you find more companions who are willing to fight for justice."
"Okay, thank you very much!"
Saying this, Cindy took out a large handful of light element crystals and gold coins. To the heavenly creatures, the former was more valuable than the latter.
Zhumana didn't say much. She accepted the things without looking at them. Then she took a sneak peek at Levi, thinking she was concealed, and then disappeared into the magic circle.
At this time, Cindy ran over happily, raised her head and said: "Brother Li Wei, how did I do?"
Levi smiled and touched the opponent's little head: "Yes, Cindy is very powerful. It looks like we might be able to get some unexpected reinforcements next time we have a decisive battle with the Rat Man."
The immediate help from the other party is secondary, but if we can build a relationship, there will definitely be a lot of benefits in the future.
It seems that although the supervisor was very shy before, he has been interacting with the tigresses a lot these days. Otherwise, how could the tiger goddess notice him so quickly?
Cindy was still a little confused: "Is it possible that she really came from that place?"
"It's almost like ten."
The more he learns, the more he understands how rare a celestial mystic is, not to mention that he, Luna, and Alyssa all have divinity in them.
For a true god, as long as he is willing to spend some effort, he can always know roughly.
It seems that the Tiger Goddess Frik, whom the tigresses believe in, is not as careless as the legend says and doesn't care about everything.
Or, could it be that other gods were giving her ideas behind her back?
For example, her brother who is famous for his fishing and wisdom - the bear god?
Well, speaking of it, the Horned Rat that the Skaven believe in is the most evil and shameless guy among the Beastmen gods.
Therefore, it has provoked many enemies, including the God of Werebears and the God of Khajiits. At this moment, it is only natural for the other party to randomly send a few of their younger brothers and sisters to kill more ratmen.
