Chapter 479 God behind the scenes

Chapter 479 The God Behind the Scenes

The Amazons believe in tooth for tooth and blood for blood.

After the other party completely ignored their many good intentions, it was actually not particularly difficult to make such a decision.

They originally suspected that there was something else going on, and now that the other party has this attitude, it would be a good time to have a fight first!

What's more, they are not really that close to each other as Amazons.

On weekdays on Paradise Island, they will have various competitions, and death and injury are inevitable. Elegy is a very obvious example.

Each of the injured and dead will have their own relatives and friends. Countless years of hatred have accumulated, and there are already many internal conflicts.

Previously, they had barely maintained a semblance of peace under the pressure of the gods.

But now it seems that after Zeus and other gods left, the conflict finally broke out.

I don’t know why the only surviving goddess, Diana, allowed this to happen.

Was it because she failed to discover it in time, or because she was unwilling to interfere in matters between mortals?

Or, it can't?

Lilith was the first to discover what happened to the Greek gods, but after such a long time, the other gods probably also noticed that something was wrong.

Even though the Greek pantheon is not large in scale and has not many believers, Amazons and Spartans, two races of men and one woman, are both very good at fighting races.

If some gods were interested in them, Li Wei wouldn't feel strange at all.

Lilith said before that she had to be busy with something, could this have anything to do with it?

After all, she is still very interested in Amazon. With the current state of the Greek pantheon, it is very suitable for her to open a new vest.

But, what role do the God-chosen heroes play in this?

As the largest gathering place in the Amazon, Paradise Island has really attracted many female God-chosen heroes.

Compared to Livy, Elegy thinks in another direction.

She usually doesn't use her brain because she doesn't need to.

Most of the time, it's enough to have Donna, and now that there's Levi, she doesn't have to worry about it anymore, but that doesn't mean she's really that stupid.

Before they met the three anaconda sisters, they had never known that there was another Amazon gathering place in Lustria that they had never been told about.

Did the gods conceal it intentionally, or was it actually the queen and the elders who did it?

Now that the gods have left, are they having conflicts and disputes about this?

Is it because they want to keep secrets or even compete for some wealth left by the gods, so they treat themselves so badly?

After all, with Li Wei as their backer, she and Donna would definitely become very strong competitors if they wanted to join.

And she has heard many legends since she was a child. On Paradise Island, there are some treasures left by the gods, including many powerful weapons and skills.

However, that doesn't matter anymore. The last thing they should do is ignore Li Wei's kindness.

Although they are Amazons, they are now Li Wei's women, and of course they have to stand by Li Wei's side!

Moreover, she and Donna actually knew that even if they were both Amazons, they could be born through natural means, recruited from God-given buildings, and hired by other God-chosen heroes, and their many subsequent actions and good and evil alignments, etc.

, there will also be extremely obvious differences.

If it is true that there are divinely chosen heroes involved as Levi said, then the hostile attitude of the other party is completely normal. They obviously want to keep the secrets and power of Paradise Island alone.

Without Li Wei and the others taking action personally, with the attacks of many ballistae and trebuchets, in just a few breaths, the Amazons who were originally very rampant were completely suppressed, and even half of the arrows could not be fired.

Fly out again.

Even the small port, which was originally a simple port, was smashed to pieces.

But despite this, the other party still had no intention of talking. Instead, several Horn Archers who had been temporarily appointed as squad leaders came to report that some of the surviving Amazons had escaped from another direction.

Levi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, so decisive? It seemed to be slightly different from the rumored Amazon. He was now more and more suspicious of the intervention of the God's Chosen Hero.

But it doesn't matter, no matter what the opponent's purpose is, you only need to defeat the enemy with one move!

"Luna, start landing and take down the surrounding villages."

"Sumi, please allocate part of your troops to guard my warship first. After all the dinosaurs have landed, you can follow the coastal area and join the battle at will."

"Everyone else, get ready. Together with the air force, we will march toward the treetop city of Mutabo later!"

Following a series of responses, the subordinates began to take action.

Sumi also asked several of her little sisters to lead the water tribe troops along the coastline to sweep other villages. While grabbing loot, they could also distract some of the enemy's attention.

She herself led the main force and continued the escort mission.

Originally, Li Wei planned to live in peace with Paradise Island, so they never took any hostile actions, but now that the other party has taken the initiative to attack, it is obvious that this matter cannot be easily resolved, and they can naturally plunder at will.

.

Having said that, Levi did not leave immediately, but used turning mud into stone, stone shaping techniques, and advanced stone transformation techniques to help the dinosaurs land.

The small port in the Amazon was already dilapidated, and it was completely reduced to rubble in the recent round of attacks.

However, the weight of the dinosaurs is heavier than the last. Without magic assistance, it would take a long time for them all to land.

Kyle was idle nearby and summoned a few fire elements to act as sentinels.

Although Brother Li Wei said that he was taking him to gain some experience this time, it was hard for him to really do nothing.

When the dinosaurs were almost halfway aboard, Levi received an emergency warning from Sumi as expected. Forty or fifty light warships were rapidly approaching from the north. They looked like pirates under the Queen of the Sea.

Sumi is currently trying her best to delay, but the opponent's goal is very clear. They would rather bear some attacks than get entangled with them, so they can't escape for long.

Levi smiled slightly and sent a message to Donna in the sky. At the same time, he also summoned some water dinosaurs to act as cannon fodder and warning.

The connection between the Queen of the Sea and the sahuagin is very close, and there may be enemies under the water later.

However, he still had some doubts. The Queen of the Sea did not evacuate this place in despair, but seemed to have entanglements with the Amazons on Paradise Island.

Could it be that she also wanted to imitate the sahuagin and, after their defeat, wanted to make up for the losses in other ways?

Not long after, dozens of warships came into view, and then with a roar, they all fired their cannons at Li Wei's fleet.

This confirmed Li Wei's guess, because under normal circumstances, pirates would not casually destroy each other's warships.

Not to mention that the captured warships themselves were also very valuable, and many of the cargoes on board had little value after they fell into the water.

Now that the other party is doing this, it is only possible that it was not for robbery from the beginning.

It's a pity that they underestimated Li Wei's power.

Although compared to the opponent's cannon, the trebuchets or ballistas controlled by skeleton soldiers and mummies are obviously inferior in power.

But soon several waves of arrows rained down from the sky, turning all the crew members on several pirate ships into hedgehogs.

Then there were rough waves under the water, and the multi-headed dragon turtle and the ancient giant turtle quickly surfaced.

They don't use any conventional attack methods such as claws and claws. They just use their thick and strong back armor to provide an iron rock to the bottom of the opponent's ship.

It may not have much effect once, but after repeated several times, pirate ships that are famous for their speed but not excellent defense often start to leak from the bottom of the ship, or are simply hit.

After the opponent falls into the water, it's time for Sumi and her aquatic troops to show their prowess.

Even if pirates generally know how to swim, fighting in the water with mermaids who are members of the aquatic tribe is just looking for death.

At the same time, mages such as Sally and Sefa also began to cast spells, throwing fireballs one after another.

Even if almost all ships are specially waterproof and fireproof, they cannot be completely immune to the flames caused by magic. Soon several warships turned into giant burning torches.

Kyle found it interesting, and after obtaining Levi's consent, he quickly joined in.

This also gave Levi a little glimpse of his fighting power.

In addition to fireball and explosive fireball, Kyle's most frequently used one is Flame Storm, which can summon a pillar of fire that can't stop rotating.

And he doesn't know whether he has any special talents or the bonus of his equipment. This magic in his hands is obviously much stronger than that of other mages.

While rotating, it not only continuously throws blazing flames around, it can also directly penetrate the deck and bottom of the ship like a drill.

Almost one move can wipe out a ship, which is more efficient than Sefa and Sally combined.

Since Khalida has returned to Lahmia City, and Mikaela is temporarily stationed in Black Ark, if Levi is not taken into account, Kyle may be the strongest among his own party in terms of magical explosive power alone.

Faced with such a violent attack, the pirates who were originally aggressive soon began to cry for their fathers and mothers. Many pirates whose ships were destroyed began to try to jump off the ship to escape.

But those dragon turtles, ancient giant turtles, titan anacondas and other summons under the water, as well as Sumi and the others, would not let them go easily, so the water surface was soon stained red with blood.

Elegy began to feel a little boring. With enemies of this level, it was not even a battle of equal strength. It was just a one-sided massacre.

Li Wei did not relax his vigilance. Although the enemy was not strong, there were slightly more races, units and heroes on these pirate ships.

In addition, some gray dwarves and drows who are accustomed to living in the dark area have now come to the pirate ship, which all shows that a considerable part of the opponent's troops are the troops of the God's Chosen Heroes.

Few of them are pure fools who have survived till now. How could they be so careless and die? There must be other behind-the-scenes tricks!

So he remained calm on the surface, but actually asked his subordinates to be more vigilant, and at the same time secretly released some of the giant tomb scorpions and poisonous scorpion guards.

The soft sandy land on the seaside is undoubtedly the most suitable for them to dig and ambush.

As expected, not long after, when only one-third of the pirate ship was left, and when it seemed that even if the chosen heroes personally suppressed it, it was on the verge of collapse, the enemy finally took action.

Luna, who had brought almost all the dinosaurs to the island, and the underwater summons each sent information.

At least six to seven thousand troops are using the cover of the forest to rush towards their location, and they can arrive in about half a quarter of an hour.

Judging from the appearance of the other party, it is definitely not a temporary decision, but has been prepared for a long time.

As soon as he heard this, Li Wei immediately knew that there was definitely an outside force involved.

Because according to what Donna and Elegy said before, although the Amazons on Paradise Island share the queen Penthesilea, the villages below have a very high degree of autonomy.

In other words, as they still mainly focus on fishing and hunting, they cannot have too large a gathering place, because that will make them starve to death.

Although the Amazons all have soldiers, their queen cannot easily mobilize so many troops.

Elegy and the others chatted with Li Wei when they had nothing to do. They once said that every time Paradise Island holds a large-scale competition event, it often requires large-scale hunting several months in advance to prepare food for the event.

What's more, according to Luna's reconnaissance, there don't seem to be many dinosaurs and other war beasts in the incoming army, and their levels are generally low, with less than one-fifth of them exceeding level 4.

And just like those pirates, they also come from many different races, at least 60% of them are human males who should not appear on the paradise island.

This is actually very obvious. I don’t know why Paradise Island was suddenly dominated by the God’s Chosen Hero, and attracted external forces. I don’t know what happened to the original queen?

It is said that Penthesilea is a descendant of Ares, the god of war in the Greek pantheon. She has extremely high talent, amazing beauty, and quite good strength. She is a legendary warrior.

Even if Ares is gone now, she will lose a lot of her god-given power, but she shouldn't be easily killed by some gods-chosen heroes, right?

But it is estimated that her current fate is not much better. If she had all the power, it is obviously impossible to let so many men wander around the paradise island.

As for the enemy forces underwater, the number was significantly smaller. There were only about 2,000 murlocs, sahuagins and some sea serpents with weaker combat capabilities.

If Sumi and the others are willing to pay the price, they can actually repel the opponent.

The only special thing is probably that the other party has a ghost ship that can dive.

Ghost ships are not particularly rare on the sea, and vampire pirates are better at making them.

The principle is nothing more than using powerful magic to demonize the ship, and then adding some ghosts as sailors.

If it is a powerful vampire, it may even incorporealize the entire ship, greatly increasing its resistance to enemy cannons, bows, and arrows.

But a ghost ship that can dive is somewhat rare.

If in a normal naval battle, it manages to make a surprise attack, it can indeed pose a certain threat.

But now, it has been discovered in advance. Although it is still a bit troublesome, at least Li Wei already has an idea to deal with it.

Luna was ordered to take the dinosaurs to form a formation on the shore, preparing to resist the opponent's army. Levi also asked many legal troops to start awakening the Death Guard.

The enemy is approaching fiercely. If you don't use it now, when will you wait?

He didn't want his subordinates to rely entirely on constructs for everything, but he didn't want to tie himself up either.

Then a large part of the fleet that was originally fighting with the opponent, or beating the opponent unilaterally, began to try to break away from the battle, and instead aimed their trebuchets at the jungle not far away.

After the opponent's army comes out, they must give the opponent a good look first.

Well, the premise is that they can come out smoothly.

With this thought in mind, Levi summoned some shadow elements and fire elements. The former was preparing to take advantage of the chaos to make a surprise attack, while the latter was preparing to set fire to the forest.

Although due to the fire protection zone and resistance to elemental damage, etc., they are relatively low-level and highly popular magic.

But with an army of six to seven thousand, Li Wei didn't believe that the other side had so many mages who could cast these magics on the entire army!

Because Kyle almost cooperated with Sefa and the others to attack one pirate ship at a time, the remaining pirates soon became unable to withstand it.

Because according to the current situation, it would only take less than a few minutes for the opponent to destroy all their warships, and they would not be able to delay them at all.

And every time a warship capsizes, no matter whether the crew members on board can swim or not, when they fall into the water, they will soon become the prey of those ferocious sea beasts or the aquatic troops, and no one will survive at all.

So no matter how unwilling they were, in order to avoid the entire army being annihilated, they had no choice but to run away first.

Seeing the other side evacuate, Kyle was still somewhat unsatisfied. This was his first time participating in a real war.

I have to say that this was more bloody and cruel than he expected, but it was also more exciting!

Even after just a few minutes, Yin Yin realized that his understanding of fire magic was much deeper.

He originally only used it in the open space within the closed barrier, but when he actually used it on living people, he began to gradually understand how to cause greater damage.

Looking at the escaping pirate ships, Levi ignored them. Even if they had the courage to come back, they would just leave more corpses.

He just dispatched ancient giant turtles and other summons to block the ghost ship's path.

No matter how worthless the warships and mummies given by Khalida were, they were still his younger brothers, so they couldn't just let the other side attack them casually.

Of course, the opponent was a pure aquatic force after all, and he was prepared to suffer battle losses, so he placed the empty ships that had transported the dinosaurs at the outermost edge.

Then he signaled to Su Mi and the others that they did not have to fight to the death, as long as they stopped most of the soldiers.

The remaining enemy elites, especially the ghost ship among them, were left to him to deal with.

But while he was fully prepared, the incoming ghost ship was a little embarrassed, because they discovered that the planned three-party attack now had serious problems.

Who would have thought that those damn pirates would collapse so quickly?

In terms of time, wouldn't they be defeated in just one meeting?

Then, will they continue to attack as planned?

After several hesitations and seeing fewer and fewer pirate ships on the water, the leader finally made up his mind.

"I don't believe he is really that powerful. Even without those useless pirates, we still have reinforcements. If a sneak attack fails, we will just attack head-on."

"More importantly, my god is protecting us and attacking!"

While speaking, he also raised the holy symbol in his hand high, with an explosive lightning beam on it.

"Oh oh oh!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the subordinates, whose morale had been a little low due to the premature defeat of the friendly forces, suddenly became energetic and full of fighting spirit, and launched a formal attack.

Not to mention, knowing clearly that the person coming was Li Wei, who had recently become famous, he could still lay such a trap for him. The other party still had a few tricks up his sleeve, and even Su Mi couldn't resist it for a while.

It's not that the level of the opponent's troops is really high, but that the abilities used by the opponent are too disgusting.

Similarly, when Sumi immediately asked Levi for help, he quickly noticed the silver magical energy under the water.

It turns out to be the most powerful magic under water - thunder and lightning!

Sea water is conductive, so using lightning spells here will not only increase the damage, but also expand the range, and there is also a chance of paralysis.

The other party doesn't know whether it used some treasure or had special bonuses in other aspects. At the cost of reducing damage, the chance of paralysis was greatly increased.

Therefore, even if Sumi and the others were prepared in advance, many low- and mid-level troops were still attacked one after another.

On the other hand, Li Wei's Ancient Giant Turtles and his ilk were basically unaffected, after all, their strength was there.

Fortunately, the mermaid race is not good at melee combat and has high intelligence, so there are many magic units. They quickly released some auxiliary magic to increase magic resistance to fight against them.

At the same time, the other party probably didn't intend to get into too much entanglement with them, and just kept charging towards the main target - Li Wei. This prevented Sumi and the others from suffering too many casualties for the time being.

There is no doubt that they want to launch a beheading tactic.

But Li Wei was not angry at all, nor did he find it funny, he was just cautious.

Before, he had been guessing who caused the mutation on Paradise Island. Now, based on the power used by the other party, he was almost certain of the other party's identity.

If nothing else, it should be the leader of the Furious Gods, the Queen of the Sea and the boss of Secora, who had also participated in the war against the Lich God before, Talos, the God of Storm and Destruction.

The Queen of the Sea fought with the Sea Dreamer over there and lost a lot of pirates. Apart from getting a little closer to the big shark Secora, she gained almost nothing. Instead, she officially offended the Sea Dreamer.

But her boss secretly went to Chencang and attacked Amazon. This is what this god from the chaotic evil camp did.

They are also chaotic evil, Prince of Lies - Cyric and Talos, they are not in the same rank at all!

However, Li Wei felt that the Queen of the Sea might not have known about this matter at the beginning.

The reason for the Raging Gods was that everyone had made too many enemies, and if they went out alone, they would probably be attacked, so they reluctantly hugged each other to keep warm.

But they are also full of suspicion and hostility towards each other.

For example, while Talos was protecting the Frost Girl Oluel, he was also squeezing her all the time. Since taking refuge with him, the Frost Girl's strength has not increased but decreased, and now she has fallen to a weak divine power.

Her priests and believers are even worse. They have basically been reduced to relying on the harsh winter weather to make a fortune by working as postmen, delivery people, and errand girls.

This even caused the Frost Maiden's camp to deviate to a certain extent. You must know that she was originally a chaotic evil camp.

Now that her church no longer robs, but instead works for others, one can imagine how harshly Talos squeezed her and how deep his influence was.

Likewise, the relationship between Talos and the Queen of the Sea is also very complicated.

They were originally supposed to be lovers, but there would be no shortage of wind and waves on the sea, so Talos wanted to use this springboard to seize the priesthood of the Queen of the Sea.

But the Queen of the Sea is not a fool, so later Talos failed to completely succeed, and the ambiguous relationship between them was completely severed, and at the same time, extremely serious rifts were created.

Although there are too many enemies, the Queen of the Sea is unlikely to leave the Raging Gods and Talos, but in this case, even if she does not cause trouble for Talos, she will definitely try to get a piece of the pie.

But now that the opponent is so well-trained, it is definitely not the style of the Queen of the Sea. She must have been used by Talos again.

While his mind was racing, Levi also discovered that the ghost ship was rushing all the way. It was a bit exaggerated to say that it was like entering a deserted land, but it was indeed very powerful.

Regardless of Titanoboa's physical attacks or the dragon turtle's breath, they had little effect.

It's a pity that Levi had already prepared for it.

When the ghost ship quickly approached, Levi pointed out: "Gravity reversal!"

The ghost ship, which was originally lurking tens of meters underwater, suddenly rose up like an oversized fish bladder.

Although the weight of the ghost ship has been greatly reduced through magical transformation and evil rituals, it is still a warship of tens of meters and still weighs several tons.

Everyone on the ghost ship suddenly panicked. They had imagined many ways for the enemy to counterattack, but they never expected it to be this one!

In a hurry, everyone on the ship launched a counterattack in their own way. Some released magic, some simply controlled the cannon, and some tried to use their own power to relieve the effect of gravity reversal.

But how could the level 7 magic cast by Levi be so easy to deal with? At least with their strength, it was far from enough.

So everyone watched helplessly as the ghost ship flew straight to an altitude of nearly a hundred meters, and then Sefa added a powerful feather falling technique to it.

Ordinary feather falling spells can only target ordinary humanoid creatures, slowing down their descent speed when falling from high altitudes, and the damage they suffer when they fall.

The powerful feather fall technique has a similar effect, but the range is expanded.

With Sefa's current strength, it is actually beyond its power to deal with such a large ordinary warship, but if it is a ghost ship that has been subjected to gravity reversal, it can still be done.

What's more, Li Wei didn't ask too much of her, she just needed to buy him enough time to cast the spell.

So the ghost ship hung so high in the air, causing everyone on the ship to be confused for a while.

What does this mean? Are you ready to hang yourself up and build fire?

Many people continued to try to launch attacks. Although the angle was not very good and the cannons could not hit at all, other spells and muskets could still be used.

A few people were busy deciphering the opponent's magic. Although the ghost ship could greatly reduce physical damage, at this height, if they fell, they would lose half their lives.

Some people have secretly cast flying spells on themselves, or summoned some flying mounts. It is always good to be prepared.

But before they could make much progress, Levi's magic was completed.

He stretched out his finger with some difficulty, and then a magic ray that was neither brilliant nor brilliant, and seemed ordinary, hit the ghost ship accurately.

But it has produced powerful effects that are unimaginable by ordinary people.

With a series of crackling sounds, the originally translucent ghost ship was quickly transformed into a physical entity and returned to a decayed and decaying appearance.

Then the powerful feather falling technique and gravity reversal attached to it were also forcibly expelled without discrimination.

This is the power of level 9 magic - Mordenkainen's Disintegration!

At the same time, after receiving a series of system prompts and seeing the changes in the ghost ship, everyone on the ship suddenly changed their colors.

They were just guessing just now, but now they finally understand each other's intentions!

The ghost ship that was originally hanging high in the sky fell from the sky with the roar of the wind, and then fell heavily to the water.

If a warship of this size falls from such a height, the impact it will suffer is no less powerful than if it falls on a solid rock.

After losing the power of spiritual transformation, the decaying hull was simply not enough to withstand this level of damage, so with a loud bang, the entire ghost ship was thrown to pieces.

Except for a small number of people who saw the opportunity quickly and used flight skills to escape first, the rest of the crew were all killed along with them.

Kyle next to him suddenly became speechless. He was a little proud just now, thinking that his fire magic was the nemesis of these pirate ships.

But now it seems that pure fire magic is not as cool as this combination?

Levi was also very satisfied. The lysis technique also had a success rate. The target was an entire ship. He was not 100% sure at first, so this was just one of his countermeasures.

Unexpectedly, he succeeded in one attempt, and he deserved the misfortune of the other party.

So he pretended not to notice the slightly resentful look in Elegy's side.

He knew that she was interested in the ghost ship, and she might have planned to capture her and then sail the ship for fun.

But the disintegration technique is all good, but it has one drawback: it does too much damage to the loot.

As the saying goes, "As soon as the cracking occurs, both the enemy and ourselves will cry, the wind will blow the egg shells, and the wealth will be gone, and people will be happy."

The principle and purpose of the so-called disintegration technique is to break down all the potions, scrolls, rings, battle treasures, armors and weapons carried by the opponent into independent components, causing them to lose their original magical abilities.

Before killing the enemy, most of the enemy's equipment has been destroyed, so when the battle is over, there will naturally be no loot left.

Therefore, except for the caster, most other people, regardless of friend or foe, cannot experience this kind of happiness.

Fortunately, Elegy only complained about him a little bit, and she gave up on it in the blink of an eye.

Because in just a short time, the enemy troops that lurked from the jungle and thought they were hidden were getting closer, and she had to fight in person.

Although she had already made preparations to become enemies with other Amazons before heading to Paradise Island, they were her own kind after all, so before the battle, she still had some hesitations and concerns.

But now the enemies are taking the initiative to help her solve problems, because among them there are not only Amazons, but also more humans from the evil camp, so she has no scruples!

As the ghost ship was destroyed, some survivors were directly taken away by a wave of arrows from Donna.

The remaining underwater attackers were defeated almost instantly. They were chased and beaten by Sumi and the others, so Levi no longer focused on that.

He just turned to look at Kyle, whose eyes were full of anticipation and eager to try: "Kyle, are you interested in setting a fire with me?"
