Kuga immediately took the lead to enter. No matter what danger was ahead, he would be the first to greet it.
But unexpectedly, there seemed to be no existence inside. It was still just a magic passage, so a large number of lizardmen followed in neatly.
In Levi's view, every movement they made was almost exactly the same, as precise as a robot. This was something that even most high elves could not do.
Perhaps, only the discipline of the Phoenix Guard can compare with it.
These guardian-type lizardmen are originally killing weapons created for war. They are probably only similar in name and appearance to the ordinary troglodyte, poison dusk lizardmen and the like in the wild.
After sighing a little, Levi also led Khalida and others, and under the protection of many lizardmen, began to enter in order.
Then he discovered that this passage was somewhat similar to the Double Moon World. It was also shrouded in hazy fog and the visual distance was very limited.
The difference is that the mist here is also pink and purple. If you encounter enemies next, they will most likely be Tzeentch demons.
Based on the knowledge of this demon, Levi asked everyone to be more vigilant.
With the other party's cunning, if the lizard people tried several times before, they would definitely be noticed by the other party.
Now that the lizardmen are sending an army in, will the other party really be completely indifferent? Then they are not the Tzeentch demons who like to play tricks the most!
Khalida, Elegy and others naturally chose to obey, and Michaela also had the same attitude.
If it was a week ago, she would never look like this.
But after this contact, especially after experiencing the events in the Twin Moon World and seeing with her own eyes the attitude of the gods towards Li Wei, her concept changed fundamentally.
She already regarded herself as Li Wei's subordinate, and everyone felt this.
However, after quickly looking around, Catherine's eyes still stayed on those tyrannosaurs.
Levi suddenly felt dumbfounded. Could it be that she also wanted to get a mount?
Well, that's not entirely impossible.
Among all dinosaurs, Tyrannosaurus is also one of the most ferocious and untamable.
But if Catherine relied on her dragon racial talent, it would be possible to successfully exert pressure on a tyrannosaurus that was no higher than level 6.
Just when he was about to get closer, a series of roars suddenly sounded in front of him, and then a male voice that sounded full of malice suddenly rang out: "The ever-changing ways of Tzeentch!"
The pink-purple mist flashed suddenly, and Levi felt that vast magic power was also fluctuating around him.
At the same time, the Skink Priest in front, as well as Mazda Moody, who maintained contact with the team through the miniature pyramid, all shouted angrily.
Khalida and others also became nervous, but only Li Wei sighed helplessly. Why didn't he feel surprised at all?
I don’t know if it’s the special identity of the God-chosen hero, or if he has some hidden bonuses.
Anyway, so far, almost all major tasks he has done have not been completed easily and smoothly.
Perhaps, this is how the protagonist is treated?
They complained secretly, and a few seconds later, they came to another new world with the world spinning.
Well, at least there's no annoying fog now, and there's even an energy shield protecting them, which is good news.
The bad news is, there are a lot of demons out there.
At this moment, they were located on the open-air platform of a magnificent building. Everywhere they looked, the sky was full of objects mixed with flames falling from the sky.
At first glance it looks like a shooting star, but it's not.
Some of them are various powerful fire magics, while the other part are demons surrounded by flames.
On the streets tens of meters below, countless lizard men, monitor lizard warriors, and various dinosaurs were fighting each other to the death, competing for every inch of land.
Looking around, there are at least hundreds of energy shields similar to those around them in the entire city, and each shield represents a battlefield.
But the light disappears almost every minute, and the fate of the sheltered beings seems to be self-evident.
Just looking at them, Levi frowned a little. The other party seemed not to be his real body, but more like a projection.
But the smell of blood and the stench of burning corpses that filled the air were real.
The Changing Way of Tzeentch
Levi silently repeated this special word in his heart. At this moment, a series of low voices suddenly sounded from behind him.
"Oh my god, how did I become like this!"
"Look, everyone is!"
"Levi!"
Levi quickly glanced around, and then he discovered that the appearance of everyone on his side, including Khalida, had undergone tremendous changes. They turned into lizards and skink lizards.
Even the mounts are no exception, they basically turned into cold lizards, pterosaurs, etc.
Among them, the little female dragon was especially panicked. Her pure-blooded dragon turned into a flying lizard. How could she accept this?
However, even if they become lizardmen, their beauty cannot be concealed, and their figure is completely wrong.
Lizardmen, skinks, monitor lizards and demon toads are all male or asexual. No matter how developed their chest and gluteal muscles are, they don't have such exaggerated curves.
When checking himself, Levi was not surprised to find that his arms were also covered with a layer of fine scales.
He stretched out his hand and touched it. Well, not to mention, it did feel like scales.
But like those fighting demons, it still feels somewhat false.
He knew that this was definitely not a change in his race, it was just some extremely clever illusion.
However, there was not even any system prompt, and his status bar did not change at all, indicating that the opponent was really strong.
Could it be the prank of the demon Tzeentch, or the power of Lord Crokar?
"Be at ease, be at peace, this is just an illusion."
After hearing Li Wei's words, everyone calmed down.
In fact, with their wisdom, they might be able to find it if they just wait a few more seconds.
But they are also concerned and confused. As women, even if they don't pay special attention to their appearance, they are far from completely ignoring it.
At the same time, Levi also quickly cast his summoning magic.
But soon he discovered that the magic value was indeed spent, but he summoned a lonely place, and no celestial creatures appeared in front of him.
He immediately realized that this special plane's ability to isolate heavenly creatures was even more powerful than in the Twin Moon World.
He turned to summoning elements and summoning monsters, and as expected, everything ended in failure.
Even high-level red flame envoys and dragon-headed divine envoys could not be contacted at all.
He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He couldn't use the summoning spell, which had a huge impact on his strength.
Fortunately, he still has a large number of death guards, dragon golems, and multi-headed sphinxes.
At this time, Elegy and the others quickly calmed down, noticed Li Wei's movements, and they also vaguely realized something.
But before they had time to ask questions, the energy shield that originally protected them began to slowly dissipate, and the smell of blood and stench in the air became thicker.
"Hey, brother Levi, look!"
Following the direction of Cindy's finger, Levi and the others found a cocoon of light slowly emerging from the wall behind them.
Although it was blocked, they could still roughly distinguish that it should be a magic toad.
But unlike the legendary image of a potbellied man, he looked only over one meter tall and very thin because he was a sleeping mummy.
But no one dared to look down upon him in the slightest with the vast, substantial energy rippling around his body.
Without any hesitation at all, almost everyone immediately concluded that the other party was the Lord Croca they were looking for and saving this time!
Only Levi felt a little strange. The other party did not resonate with his ring, as if the other party had no power from the God of Mystery Locks at all.
But with so many features gathered at the same time, it seems that there is no other possibility.
After thinking about it, he took the initiative and tried to communicate with the other party.
Then as expected, he didn't receive any response, and the other party still looked the same.
Even because he was a mummy, it was completely impossible for him to judge whether the other party was awake by breathing or other methods.
What he can be sure of is that the opponent's magical protection is very powerful.
At this moment, a rather excited roar was heard. A certain five- to six-meter-tall demon leader brutally chopped off the head of a tyrannosaurus, and then raised its head high, declaring his might.
.
The morale of the already exhausted lizardmen around them suddenly dropped sharply. A few skink lizards fled first, and then the remaining lizardmen also fled in all directions.
Seeing this, Li Wei couldn't help but frown secretly.
Skinks can understand that they have never been professional warriors, but what about the fact that lizardmen always fight to the death?
Then the demon waved the machete in the air several times, and his eyes gradually shifted to Levi.
Khalida was already holding a snake-headed spear and walked to Li Wei's side: "Li Wei, what should we do now?"
Compared to others, she can recover from her previous state faster.
Not only because she has experienced hundreds of battles, but also because she was once transformed into a vampire by Neferata, and then turned into a special creature that was half alive and half dead by the snake god.
Now she is saved by Lilith, so she is more able to adapt to the many changes that have happened to her.
Even if you really become a lizard-man, what will happen?
As long as you keep living, sooner or later something will change.
"Let's fight, first kill all the demons in front of us, and then look for traces of Kuga."
Regardless of whether his suspicion is true, one thing he is sure of is that even if these demons are created illusions, they are also illusions that can kill people!
"Wait a minute, Levi, I seem to know this place." Sefa walked over, rubbing her head.
Looking at her appearance, Li Wei immediately remembered the last time. Did she recover part of the memory of Master Yufeng from her previous life?
"Although there are many places that are different, this should be the original city of the lizard people - Itaza"
Donna, Elegy and others also suddenly realized.
"That's where Lord Croca died in the battle."
"Is this his last battle before his death?"
"It's very possible that maybe he was sealed here and kept repeating the memory of the original battle."
"Then under the power of the demon Tzeentch, the memory became reality?"
They are not stupid, although most of them are not mages and do not know any powerful spells. Those who know spells are definitely not comparable to Lord Croca.
But after following Li Wei for such a long time and experiencing so much, it is not difficult to make such a reasoning.
Levi generally agreed with this, so while they were talking, he had summoned more Death Guards.
"Come on, Sefa, take us to the Bridge of Stars."
In the original battle, it was the wanderer, Nakai, who alone held the Star Bridge leading to the core area of the city.
This time Nakai did not come, who on our side is most likely to replace him? Of course it can only be Kuga!
No matter whether his other guesses were correct or not, it was absolutely correct that he would first fight against the powerful force of Ku Jia.
As for Lord Croka who stays here
Although he had some secret doubts, Levi left behind forty or fifty constructs.
Except for the fact that there are no sphinxes due to terrain restrictions, there are some other types of death guards and dragon golems.
As long as there is no invasion by a large group of demons, they are enough to protect it.
At least on the surface, it seemed that Li Wei still valued him very much.
The plan is set, there is nothing more to say next.
Li Wei and the others first relied on the favorable location to attract all the nearby demons and killed them all.
After an actual battle, not only Li Wei, but everyone else felt that something was wrong.
Each of these demons looks very ferocious, but their actual combat power is not worthy of their appearance.
There are even many demons who will directly choose to escape when the battle is unfavorable!
"Levi, why do I think they don't look like demons, but more like rat men?"
As someone with many big cats under her command, Donna undoubtedly has a strong say in this matter.
Cindy also nodded hurriedly: "That's right, that's right, I smelled a pungent stench more than once. It's not from the devil, it must belong to the rat people."
Elegy also found details: "Those flying demons never seem to approach us through the air."
"They were either killed by the lizardmen in mid-air, or they fell to the ground first and then attacked us."
"Could this be because the Skaven never had any air forces? Could they all be fakes?"
Ratmen have many advantages, but their weaknesses are also extremely obvious.
First of all, they don't have any air force at all.
Secondly, they only have a very small number of "sewer river armies", which is what many human countries have recently concluded.
Khalida even drew inferences from one example: "The combat effectiveness of those lizardmen is also generally much weaker. Could it be that they are also disguised as some evil race?"
She had to have such doubts, because according to the known intelligence, although the Tzeentch demons love to carry out conspiracies, what they want most is not the results, but to enjoy the process.
As for the killing and bloodshed, that is just incidental.
If you want to use the ever-changing ways of Tzeentch, you need at least one ever-changing demon lord. If you put it in the bottomless abyss, it would be a proper demon lord, and the stronger one among them.
Now that they have entered the opponent's home court that may have been occupied for more than a thousand years, God knows how many tricks the opponent can come up with.
"Yes, and they completely refuse to communicate with us at any level. After killing all the enemies in front of them, they will retreat immediately and then disappear."
Even the newcomer Kerilian expressed her own opinions. She now discovered that unlike other lords or leaders, Levi encouraged his subordinates to express their opinions and seemed to be intentionally cultivating their ability to think and make decisions independently.
So she will also seize the time to express herself.
This made the little female dragon next to her who had never spoken a word very speechless, because most of the knowledge she inherited was all kinds of magic and did not focus on this aspect.
She was just focused on fighting again and didn't pay attention to these details at all.
Levi pondered for a moment: "Most of those lizard people should be real. Perhaps making us suspicious of them is exactly what the All-Changing Demon Lord wants to see."
As for refusing to communicate with them, that is a very normal thing for lizard people. Lizard people are the most xenophobic among all races.
After they retreated, they suddenly didn't know where they were going while walking, which made him secretly frightened.
The All-Changing Demon Lord's control over this place is much stronger than he expected.
Khalida and the others thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case.
Although the Demon of Tzeentch is called a demon, it is actually more like a demon in many aspects and likes to play with people's hearts.
On the other hand, Elegy showed no fear: "No matter how they changed, we will fight Kujia first, and then kill all the demons. Sooner or later, the other party will show up."
Levi, who was looking back at Lord Croca, immediately withdrew his gaze.
He smiled slightly: "Elegy is right, Sefa, please do me a favor and continue to show you the way."
No matter how many conspiracies there are, at the last critical moment, it still depends on each other’s hard power!
So Khalida and Dirge waited on the ground, leading many constructs to massacre.
Especially the Sphinx among them can be said to sweep through thousands of armies, and every move can cause a large number of casualties.
Levi and Donna rode the Frostheart Phoenix together, and together with Michaela, Sefa and others, they used various magics and carried out indiscriminate bombings.
No matter how powerful the All-Changing Demon King is, he cannot conjure troops out of thin air. These rat men disguised as demons are definitely elites within their race, but to Li Wei and the others, they are nothing more than that.
.
Sonia and Kerilian are tasked with another task, which is to always pay attention to each other's true identity.
Although Li Wei was protected by Lilith's power, it was unlikely that the conversation they just had would be heard by the All-Changing Demon Lord.
But from their actions, it may be noticed.
If it had bad intentions and suddenly replaced a wave of rat-men with lizard-men, and then was killed by them, then it would be difficult for Li Wei to explain to Kuga.
Then, under the guidance of Sefa, they killed all the demons they encountered while heading towards the Star Bridge.
Levi didn't know if the ever-changing Demon Lord hidden in the dark was a legend, or if he had fragments of his godhead just like the previous Keeper of the Secrets of the Lord Slaanesh.
He only knew one thing, the other party was indeed ridiculously strong. Along the way, they just couldn't find any new flaws in the city.
However, they have gained a lot of experience in street fighting and urban fighting. Most of their previous battles took place in the wilderness, which can be considered a rare experience.
As they continued to advance, more and more demons died in their hands, and they became more and more certain that the true identities of these guys were rat men.
Because they have never seen a demon that can use a dimensional flamethrower and a dimensional gun before, let alone other tails, fangs, and other details unique to the ratmen.
Even if the All-Changing Demon Lord disguised the bullets to a certain extent, trying to trick them into thinking they were the devil's innate abilities, he still couldn't completely deceive them.
But despite this, the opponent is already strong enough, because so far, more than 4,000 ratmen have died in their hands.
Even if they don't bring troops in, their killing speed is still not slow.
The All-Changing Demon Lord cast illusion spells on so many ratmen, the lizardmen they were fighting, and Li Wei and the others at the same time, and his power was simply outrageous.
I don't know what method these cunning ratmen used to find Lord Croka's sealed place, and then they were used by the All-Changing Demon Lord and became cannon fodder to stop them.
On the contrary, the problem that Li Wei was worried about never really appeared.
I don’t know if the All-Changing Demon Lord feels it is unnecessary, or if it is no longer able to do more.
But none of that mattered, because they had already seen the dazzling Star Bridge in front of them, as well as the leering lizard man named Kuga riding a tall tyrannosaurus.
Behind him were several lizard man heroes riding tyrannosaurs, and some giant-horned cold lizard cavalry.
But the number is obviously much less than before, and I don't know if they got separated or were lost in the battle.
Despite this, Li Wei and the others still breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as you make peace with Kuga, your own strength will be further strengthened.
Moreover, Mazda Moody outside must be trying hard to help Kuga, and they may also benefit by the way.
At this time, as the distance between the two parties continued to get closer, a new stench came along with the breeze.
This is also one of the most obvious weaknesses of the All-Changing Demon Lord. He can change the appearance of things, but cannot change the smell.
After just taking a small sip, even with Levi's calmness, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and almost spit it out.
Warriors such as Khalida and Dirge were fine, but mages with weaker constitutions such as Michaela and Sefa also performed quite unbearably. They retched one after another, obviously they couldn't stand the stench.
At the same time, they also have one or more of the above characteristics, and even their blood will undergo extremely serious mutations, or simply turn into something else.
For example, acid, vomit, liquid metal, or simply feces and maggots and other incredible things.
Under the influence of demonic power, Nurgle demons will enjoy this and gain additional strength from it.
Some Nurgle demons can even spit out little demons alive to serve as their own troops.
But for normal mortals, they can only enjoy pain.
In comparison, the rat-men's plague was more than one level worse.
Although Nurgle is known as the Lord of Diseases, in fact the plagues of demons and the plagues understood by mortals are not the same thing at all.
It may not kill you immediately, and it may even give you special powers, but you may want to die.
Therefore, Levi was not willing to let Elegy, Cindy and the others fight against the Nurgle Demon in person.
Even if Lilith takes care of everything, there is a high chance that it can be saved afterwards.
But if they experience it once, it will definitely become a nightmare they will never forget.
To deal with the demons of Nurgle, either use long-range attacks to eliminate them in advance, or use constructs and elemental creatures that have no life and will not be affected to resist.
If there is really no choice, then summoned creatures such as celestial beings will be used as cannon fodder.
Unlike most other demon lords, the Four Gods of Chaos had many more tricks to play, so they could eventually become the demon gods.
In comparison, Khorne may have the least gameplay among them. He only likes blood and massacre. When he has nothing to do, he will build a throne with skulls or something.
But that doesn't mean he's easy to deal with. On the contrary, it's because he's strong enough that he doesn't play with those gadgets.
Although Li Wei didn't say anything, Elegy immediately understood what he meant and decided to accept the kindness because she really couldn't stand that thing.
Similarly, Khalida did not persist. She was not sick, so she would not take the initiative to find fault.
After slightly adjusting their formation, they also took out some special masks and the like.
It was originally purchased in Lahmia City as a magic prop for sand and dust prevention for their next march into the desert, and it came in handy now.
But when Li Wei and the others gradually approached the Bridge of Stars and approached Kuga, an accident happened again.
He stabbed a demon to death with a spear, then turned to glare at Levi: "The leader of the demons? Don't even think about crossing here. I will never let the tragedy of Ashoto happen again. I will not be the last guard again."
