Volume 3 Takeoff Chapter 422: Little Dragon's Misunderstanding
Soon, Supervisory Yakong reported that the enemy's troops that had evacuated the encirclement did not launch a direct large-scale attack.
Instead, not far away from the fortress, they dispersed into small teams and joined the groups of greenskins and goblins wandering in the wild.
Levi immediately raised his eyebrows. Was he trying to blend in and give himself a surprise?
In this case, you might as well show weakness to the enemy.
After thinking about it, he changed his original plan. This time, Luna would still lure the enemy, but the ambush troops would need to be adjusted.
The subordinates quickly obeyed the order. Except for the troops of the Scorpion General, Levi's direct troops only left Sefa, Sally, Sonia and others, and then some celestial creatures pretending to be the royal guards.
Anyway, there are enough of them, and if you don’t know Levi very well, you would never guess that they are all summoned creatures.
As for Donna, Elegy, Cindy and others, they retreated with the air force and infantry respectively, preparing for a second ambush. He also wanted to prepare a surprise for the other side!
Soon, under Luna's lure, the enemy fell into the trap again. At Levi's command, the Scorpion Warrior once again led the Cemetery Knights to attack from both sides, launching the first wave of attacks, trying to weaken the enemy.
But at this moment, several greenskins were either roaring or laughing, activating their respective consumable items.
As multiple magical lights flashed by, many greenskins had more than one layer of protection on their bodies. This was not enough to make them completely immune to the attack, but it could greatly reduce the damage they suffered.
Then hundreds of greenskins roared, their eyes became bloodshot, and their bodies grew a little bigger. They all used the berserk skill at the same time.
The many shamans hiding there no longer pretended and simply lifted up the tattered cloaks they were using for camouflage.
He was shouting incomprehensible words and jumping around, and in the blink of an eye he summoned dozens of totem poles flashing with different lights and the ghosts of dozens of animals.
A few guys holding bows and arrows whistled, and immediately there were bird calls hundreds of times sharper in the air in response to them. Hundreds of flying soldiers such as harpies and rocs had already dived down.
At the same time, the ground was shaking slightly, indicating that at least a thousand cavalry units were approaching in the distance, and a dozen giants had already emerged first due to their outstanding height, although there was still some distance between them.
Li Wei pretended to be shocked and asked, "What? You have an ambush?"
Upon hearing this, a boar knight holding two axes could not help but said angrily: "You have killed nearly 10,000 people, right? If we haven't discovered it yet, then wouldn't we be fools?"
Although these greenskins and goblins are basically not directly under the command of Evil Dan, they are from other small clans and tribes around them who spontaneously joined in the fun.
Normally, Evil Dan doesn't care about their life or death at all, he just lets them be cannon fodder, or lets them do whatever they want.
But as the chosen heroes of the greenskins, they cannot just ignore it.
Because the more cannon fodder they have, the safer their own brothers will be.
But they didn't expect that when they were besieging the Dracaderin Fortress and were sure to capture the city before dark, they found that their cannon fodder troops seemed to be insufficient.
Then they discovered this group of enemies coming from the east, who were constantly attacking the greenskins with despicable means.
Speaking of which, those greenskins are really stupid. They couldn't even see through such a simple plan, and they had to finish it themselves!
Levi gritted his teeth and said, "Despite this, we will not surrender. We have killed so many greenskins, and we can kill you this time too!"
As he spoke, he raised his hand and released a fireball.
Sefa and others around him naturally followed him and killed dozens of greenskins in one wave.
This is one of the reasons why he wanted to keep them. Even if there was a plan, they would not waste the opportunity to kill the enemy!
However, despite the fact that some of his friendly troops were killed, the greenskin with two axes was not annoyed at all. Instead, he just laughed.
"I know you. Your name is Li Wei, right? Don't blame me, brother. Blame you for being too greedy."
A green-skinned shaman nearby also said, "That's right, if you had left after getting the benefits, you wouldn't have ended up like this!"
A super mission that covers almost the entire main world is certainly extremely dangerous. Even they can imagine how miserable the greenskin race will be if it fails.
But on the other hand, the rewards of this mission are extremely amazing.
For example, their target this time is the Dracaderin Fortress. If they can capture it, almost all of their God-chosen heroes participating in the battle will be able to get a level 6 giant as a reward.
Yes, one for each person!
As for other low- and mid-level greenskins, there is almost an unlimited supply for them to recruit.
In order for this super WAAAGH to succeed, not only did many greenskin warlords contribute their efforts, but the greenskin gods also spent a considerable amount of resources.
So they originally didn't want to be distracted to deal with Levi, but the other party was really too much.
In that case, leave your life and equipment behind!
Levi naturally did not want to be outdone. Although he was not particularly good at talking nonsense tactics, it did not mean that he did not know how to use it.
At the same time, he also wanted to try to obtain more information from the other party through this communication.
Unfortunately, the opponent was a hero chosen by God, not a stupid green-skinned native. After all his talk, he didn't get anything useful. Instead, it seemed that because he was not paying attention, the opponent took advantage of the situation and killed some troops.
He couldn't help but said with a little annoyance: "Damn it, you dare to take advantage of the opportunity to attack?"
The greenskin with two axes laughed out loud: "Levi, I have heard that you are very strong and have good command ability, but now it seems that you are just so-so."
"Remember, you were defeated by me, Black Whirlwind!"
He always liked to play tricks, but he deliberately gave himself a name that was not very smart.
If his opponent is defeated because he underestimates him, he will often point this out afterwards, because the opponent's anger will be the source of his joy!
This time, as expected, he saw anger on his opponent's face.
So even though he was hit by a fireball and even a lot of the hair on his face was singed, he did not feel angry at all. Instead, he burst into laughter again.
The few green-skinned God-chosen heroes nearby were also somewhat speechless.
This big brother has strong personal strength and influence, but as for his hobby, I really don’t know how to let them evaluate it.
But no matter how they performed, the battle continued, and under the fierce attack of many heroic units of the Greenskins, the Greenskins began to quickly gain the upper hand.
The skeleton chariots and skeleton cavalry, which were already very weak, were smashed into pieces.
The strength of the Cemetery Knights is slightly stronger, but they are still powerless against the joint assault of the enemy's air force, such as the Dapeng and Wyvern, and ground forces.
In addition, many of the green-skinned God-chosen heroes at the scene have one or more heroes under their command, as well as some elite guards.
Almost wherever they rushed, the cemetery knights there would suffer heavy losses.
In addition to accumulating energy through continuous combat until the WAAAGH state is activated to enhance their own attack power, critical hit rate, charge power, etc., the greenskins also have a talent called bloodiness, which can increase the critical hit rate and critical hit damage rate of physical attacks.
Then, by spending a negligible amount of money, they can also comprehend the passive skill of "bigger is stronger", which will further increase their critical hit rate when using heavy weapons.
Greenskins have a particular preference for cold weapons such as maces, axes and machetes, so they can usually use these abilities perfectly.
This also means that in a one-on-one fight, human infantry of the same level often finds it difficult to defeat greenskin infantry, and a random critical hit can create a significant gap.
As heroes chosen by God, they will naturally find ways to further increase their critical hit rate. Even if they do not use any skills, the damage caused by ordinary attacks alone is not low.
However, despite the extremely unfavorable situation, Levi and his men still did not give up resistance. Each time they concentrated their firepower, they could kill dozens of enemies. For a moment, the power of the high-level magicians was undoubtedly revealed.
At first, several shamans overestimated their own abilities and tried to compete with Levi, but then they were forcibly restrained by his black tentacles and Sally's fire tentacles, and then taken away by a round of fireballs.
As Levi's level continues to increase, the effect of the high elf racial talent - elven magic, is also constantly improving.
At his current level, this item alone can provide him with 9 points of spell penetration. Coupled with his high level, high intelligence and luxurious equipment, ordinary magic units really find it difficult to compete with him.
Sally, Sefa and others are not ordinary mages either. Even looking at the entire main world, they are definitely outstanding among their peers.
The green-skinned Shamans, on the other hand, are clearly weaker among magic professions, as their spells are completely unable to benefit from their racial talents.
The Scorpion General also led his own guards and huddled together with several ordinary heroes. They did not engage in a head-on confrontation, but followed Levi's previous orders and specifically attacked the enemy's weak points.
In this way, not only will their resistance appear fierce, but the casualties will not be too great.
Although Khalida probably intended to use this vanguard force as sacrifices when she handed it over to Levi, it would be embarrassing for Levi if the entire army was really wiped out.
But despite this, with the appearance of many river trolls, swamp trolls, and stone trolls in the rear, and the giants getting closer, Levi and his men finally couldn't hold on anymore.
After all, the vanguard troops that Khalida gave him were not meant to withstand damage.
The trolls in particular have also been strengthened to a certain extent. In addition to their naturally high health, self-healing abilities, bile vomiting, etc., their weapons have also been modified, and there are bloody graffiti on their bodies.
It is obvious that the greenskins' special use of waste is not limited to ordinary greenskins or goblins. If they want, they can also use it on their own friendly forces.
Just like the war pig mount before, just like the troll now.
Moreover, after a few rounds of fighting with the front-line troops, Levi discovered that although they also used waste materials, the enhancements they received were much stronger than those of the goblins.
If we infer this, is it possible that those giants are very different from the regular giants in the known intelligence?
After roughly collecting this information, Levi winked at Sefa and the others, and they tacitly cast some magic with restrictive effects.
With the help of Levi's spider web magic, ice storm and other large-scale control magic, a part of the enemy forces in the front were successfully delayed.
Seeing this, Levi no longer hesitated and started to retreat with them.
On the one hand, if the fight continues, the Cemetery Knight will suffer a bit too much loss.
On the other hand, he was worried that the other party might issue a WAAAGH.
Although the conditions are very harsh, once it is successfully opened, the combat effectiveness of the greenskins will increase dramatically in a short period of time. At that time, the price to pay for withdrawing from the battle will become higher.
It is said that the effect of WAAAGH is different for each legendary greenskin.
Similarly, the green-skinned God-chosen heroes can often reduce the points required for charging, or change the effect of WAAAGH to a certain extent, etc. through their respective equipment and skills.
If someone here launches a WAAAGH that can accelerate and keeps chasing after me, my overall plan may be affected.
So Levi felt that it was enough, so he just started to run away, not caring about his face anymore.
The Scorpion General, who had been given instructions in advance, immediately gave up fighting and started to run away with his personal guards.
His giant scorpion mount was not good at speed and charging, but it could traverse complex terrain like the mountains as if it were flat ground.
The cemetery knights also began to retreat. Even if they were slashed or hit a few more times by their opponents, they would force themselves out of the battle. For a moment, it seemed as if they were defeated.
Seeing this scene, Black Whirlwind and others became more and more excited. They ordered their troops to speed up their march and make sure to catch up and wipe out the enemy.
But soon they discovered, somewhat annoyed, that Levi and his men seemed to have specifically targeted the rarer types of flying soldiers for killing.
This resulted in all creatures, such as the Roc and the Harpy, being killed, except for some slower and completely brainless gargoyles.
Not even a single powerful wyvern was left.
Unfortunately, their wild boars were not suitable for charging in this kind of terrain, which made it difficult for them to catch up with Levi.
Fortunately, those skeleton horses also seem to be unsuitable for this terrain. Both the skeleton chariots and cavalry units run slowly.
So they launched a close pursuit, constantly eroding the enemy forces behind them, and after careful consideration, Black Whirlwind sent a signal for help to the indigenous people on his own side.
Although they do not have any cavalry units for the time being, the greenskin warlords who are besieging the dwarves still have some elite troops under their command.
Perhaps because there was nowhere to exert his strength over there, the greenskin warlord responded quickly and caught up at an extremely fast speed.
Almost at the same time, Levi also received this information from Inspector Yakong, and he immediately laughed.
"I didn't expect that we would have such an unexpected gain. Maybe before Khalida's army arrives, we can successfully defeat the greenskins besieging the city."
Then the next moment, he was also a little surprised, because Luna said that in addition to about five or six teams of wyverns, the mount of the leading green-skinned warlord seemed to be a hybrid of a wyvern and a white dragon.
At the same time, the opponent should also have acceleration abilities or props. The flying speed of those wyverns is at least 20% to 30% faster than their counterparts.
If we follow our previous plan, it is entirely possible that the other party will arrive later but be the first to arrive and just happen to meet up with Black Whirlwind and the others, which would be disadvantageous to us.
If the ambush is successful, they are confident that they can kill either Black Tornado or the Greenskin Warlord, but when the two work together, they may end up in a passive position.
While his mind was racing, Levi directly issued the latest order: "The plan has changed. Let Donna and Elegy continue to retreat and prepare again at the third ambush site in the southeast."
They had fought several battles along the way and naturally prepared several different ambush locations, which now came in handy.
If the greenskin warlord was faster, then when the distance was far enough, in the process of constant pursuit, he might become disconnected from Black Tornado and his men, and eventually become an isolated force deep in the enemy's territory, making it convenient for his side to carry out decapitation tactics.
"Also, inform General Scorpion that we may have to pay a higher price!"
As a result, Black Whirlwind and the others soon discovered that, probably because they knew that they had no intention of giving up the pursuit, more Cemetery Knights began to take the initiative to intercept them.
But they were not surprised but happy, because they had an absolute advantage in military strength. No matter how many enemies stayed, they could only be transformed into experience points!
Then they killed several waves of Cemetery Knights in succession, totaling six or seven hundred. Adding the previous ones, they had already captured thousands of heads in this attack.
Those skeleton soldiers are fine, but the grave knights are real level 5 soldiers. Even if they are divided equally among these thousands of troops, the remaining experience points are still not small.
The only thing that made them a little regretful was that while they were dealing with these guys, the greenskin warlord had already roared over their heads with fifty or sixty wyverns.
Judging from the strength that guy had shown before, by the time they caught up with him, most of Levi and his men would probably have been killed.
Little did they know that Levi on the other side had already set up a tight net for the other side.
As the enemy continued to approach, although some celestial creatures were killed one after another, more information also flowed into Levi's hands.
It was indeed as Luna said, the greenskin warlord's mount seemed to be a hybrid of a wyvern and a white dragon.
Normal wyverns are dark gray-green in color, have only a pair of hind legs, and their forelimbs are combined with their wings.
In addition, they often have more feathers than scales, so they appear very clumsy when walking on land, swaying from side to side, and their calls are also very strange, so they are nicknamed "ducks" on forums.
In addition to its powerful hind claws, its big mouth and venom are also extremely deadly.
But this hybrid flying dragon is different. Its general shape is still the same, but its entire body is covered with white scales.
Most importantly, it had spewed out icy breath from a high position more than once.
All these characteristics indicate its bloodline.
However, this alone is not enough to pose much threat to Levi, because his two new moves are intended to be used on some stronger enemies!
Seeing that the other party was less than 10 miles away from here, a night owl, Yakong, also passed another important information to Levi at the cost of his own life.
The green-skinned warlord seemed to be a magic unit. In addition to the battle axe, he also held a staff, which was a typical shaman's outfit.
Normally, greenskins are not a suitable race for spellcasters, and shamans themselves are far less omnipotent than mages.
Therefore, greenskin shamans usually carry battle axes and try to strengthen their melee capabilities a little bit, otherwise their racial talents will be wasted.
But this made Levi more confident in his plan.
The shaman has 6 health points for every 1 point of constitution, the same as the thief, and only higher than the mage and warlock.
Even if we estimate it higher, the opponent is an epic hero with equipment bonus, and his health points are unlikely to exceed 500 points. I wonder how many Axiom Hammers he can take?
At this moment, accompanied by a cloud of mist, a certain existence floated down from mid-air.
Levi smiled slightly, it seemed that the message he deliberately conveyed did play a certain role.
But speaking of it, the way the opponent appeared was quite similar to Lilith's, except that there was a huge difference in strength.
Then the fog dissipated, and a silver-haired girl landed a few meters in front of Levi. It was the little female dragon Catherine.
She transformed into an old lady at first, probably because she wanted Levi, the summoner, to pay more attention to her and get more rewards.
After all, it is well known that the strength of pure-blooded dragons is closely related to their age.
However, after making a few small mistakes when performing magic and being taught some knowledge by Levi, she very consciously turned into her current appearance that matches her real age.
Of course, this was also because she had become relatively familiar with everyone, and she had gradually realized that Levi really didn't need her money.
He didn't care whether she became an old lady or a young girl, he just needed her strength.
If we ignore the dragon's own talents, her spellcasting ability is not the strongest in the team. She still has a lot to learn from Sefa and Levi.
After some comparison, she found that the main members of Levi's team were mostly young and beautiful women.
So she thought she had figured out what Levi liked, and she became like this.
"Lord Levi, I want to fight that half-blooded bastard!"
The silver dragon and the white dragon, one is a metallic dragon with a lawful good camp, and the other is a colored dragon, which is notoriously chaotic evil. The two camps are inherently opposed.
And they all have ice attributes, and dragon eggs must be hatched under the snow on the snowy mountains.
A combination of many reasons caused even the little female dragon, who was not warlike, to want to go out and attack.
As for whether the other person is mixed-race, she doesn't particularly care.
Because dragons have an innate ability, which is that they can discover beauty in almost all races and appreciate the beauty of each other.
This leads to the situation that no matter they are looking at humans, elves, beasts, or even slimes, they may feel that some people in the other group are very handsome or beautiful, and conform to their own aesthetic standards or even views on mate selection.
Just like how she looks at Levi, Sefa and others now, she thinks they are all very good-looking.
In addition, there is no reproductive isolation between dragons and other races, so the new races created by dragons in the main world are countless. Even gnolls call themselves dragonborn.
Levi agreed readily, but he did not let the other party rush forward immediately.
Even though the White Dragon is known as the shame of dragons and is basically at the bottom of all pure-blooded dragons, the abilities of its hybrid offspring with the Wyvern may decline further.
But the little female dragon claimed that she had only relied on magic before and rarely relied on hand-to-hand combat, so he couldn't be completely careless.
The best way to deal with it is naturally to fill up her BUFF.
So in the blink of an eye, a little female dragon appeared with many enhanced states such as the Supreme Robe, Dragon Power, Cat's Grace, Acceleration, etc., and her attributes were temporarily improved to an exaggerated level.
There is not much to say about the first few, the main one is the last magic - flying. Levi thinks it may be the key for the little female dragon to defeat her opponent.
Dragons have never been known for their agility. It is said that more than 90% of adult dragons, unless they advance to special professions or break through to the legendary level, their agility attribute will basically not exceed 10.
Not to mention compared with thieves or assassins, ordinary mid-level warriors are often more flexible than them.
For the little female dragon now, relying on the magic flying technique will significantly reduce its straight-line charge speed compared to the dragon's own flying ability, but it can greatly improve her maneuverability.
This is exchanging speed for her ability to turn and hover in extremely small spaces.
Feeling the changes in her body, the little dragon didn't know how to respond for a moment. This was the first time she felt so powerful and yet so light.
Especially the dragon power technique, which seemed to have stimulated some key factors in her body, making her feel uneasy for a while and even uncomfortable in some parts of her body.
This made her a little confused. Could it be that she had also reached the age of estrus?
Levi is not yet clear why the little female dragon has such an idea. The dragon power technique will have different effects on different people.
For example, Dirge, every time she was under the spell, she would moan, just like the sound she made when they were alone at night.
But Donna, Cindy and others did not react so exaggeratedly, and Alduin, who was a dragonborn, did not feel anything special.
As for the little female dragon in front of him, she also seemed to be fine on the surface.
So he just continued with his original plan, and suddenly frowned.
"Catherine, perhaps your duel with the opponent will be forced to end. There is a green-skinned shaman on its back."
That's right, he played a little trick. In the information he just provided to the other party, he only mentioned the half-blood white dragon, but did not say that there was another being on the other party's back.
He had always wanted to take his relationship with the little dragon to the next level, preferably by abducting her permanently.
Saving money is not a big deal. The main thing is that he doesn't want to go through the trouble of training her, only to have her quit one day for other reasons.
There are significant differences between the Dragon Alliance and the Alien Alliance, not only in the summoning targets, the places where the opponents come from, and the resources required, but also in the restrictions.
Dragons have greater freedom. Even when needed, if a dragon is idle but in a bad mood, or has no reason at all, it may stand up its summoner.
Anyway, the magic of oath requires the consent of both parties to be successfully performed. For the summoned person, the worst that can happen is the loss of a contract.
Of course, under normal circumstances, the dragons would not do this, mainly for the sake of money.
But there is also the possibility of other accidents, such as she encountered a powerful enemy and was killed by him.
Due to their preference for mountainous areas, silver dragons and red dragons have a considerable amount of overlap in their habitats. Given the red dragon's violent temper, they will definitely fight when they meet.
Although under normal circumstances, among the ten common dragons, the gold dragon ranks first, followed by the silver dragon and the red dragon, the silver dragon has a higher winning rate.
But Catherine, this little female dragon, is obviously not a normal silver dragon.
Her cloud magic is great for beating weak enemies and can also provide strong support to the army, but it may not be very effective against a red dragon.
But after several days, many summons, and many battles side by side, he still didn't find any opportunity.
As a high-level magical creature, the wisdom of an adult dragon is far greater than that of ordinary humans. Even though it has less experience and knowledge, it is still very alert in some key areas.
Now, this hybrid white dragon might just be the right opportunity.
At that time, he and she will fight side by side against powerful enemies. After a battle, they will both kill their opponents. The feelings cultivated in the battle will greatly help to enhance the relationship between the two sides.
And according to his speculation, the success rate of this plan will be very high.
But he never expected that after hearing what he said, the little female dragon suddenly blushed and said awkwardly: "But I haven't found a partner yet..."
Levi's face was immediately filled with black lines. Even if he planned to abduct her, he would train her as an important combat force rather than an ordinary mount.
What on earth was she thinking? Are all dragons so direct?
