Volume 3 Takeoff Chapter 430: Phantom Goddess - Leila
Unfortunately, Velsharoon clearly didn't have the courage to do so, and this necromancer was probably not an important figure in his church.
So even though Levi insulted Visharoon very directly several times, he still didn't wait for any existence to suddenly appear.
Instead, the necromancer became more and more frightened, and the intensity of the attacks by the surrounding undead creatures, which had lost their command, also began to obviously decrease.
Except for vampires, liches and death knights who have higher intelligence, many undead are very rigid or stupid. After all, most of them don't even have brains.
After the commander dies in battle, they will generally just follow their own nature or continue to act according to the last order they received.
Therefore, many people know the importance of decapitation tactics when fighting against the undead.
After several unsuccessful attempts, Levi could only pretend to be very disappointed: "Tsk, it seems that the God you believe in does not want to save you at the critical moment."
Without waiting for the other party to reply, he continued: "So, do you have any last words?"
The reason why he deliberately left the opponent to the end was that he judged from a certain piece of equipment on the opponent and the magic he had used before that the opponent should be a wizard above level 13.
For him now, such an enemy certainly does not pose much threat, but for the already extremely down-and-out Visharoon, a mage of this level is at least a high-level member of the church and should know some secrets.
Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, Visharon still watched him die without helping.
The necromancer opened his mouth but said nothing.
Expecting the God he believed in to save him? What a joke.
Not to mention that the situation of God and the church is very bad now, even before, when their God saw believers fall into this situation, he would never lend a helping hand.
He would just sit on his throne and laugh , mocking those pathetic losers.
Thinking of this, his mind couldn't help but become active. Although he couldn't betray his God, he might be able to reveal some insignificant information to God in order to save his life...
Seeing Levi raise his hand again, he quickly said, "Wait, I have other information, can you buy my life?"
"Oh? Tell me about it."
"There is a seal five miles ahead. A powerful soul is sleeping inside. We are here for him!"
Levi shook his head in disappointment: "Why do you think those dwarves came with me? The spirits of their ancestors are sleeping here."
"ah?"
The necromancer was stunned for a moment. If he had known that it was the dwarf's ancestor spirit, why would he have run here in all the trouble?
Because even if he could temporarily wake up and control the other party, he would definitely not be able to escape the dwarf's pursuit.
But he really didn't expect that since the dwarves didn't know magic, how did they create a seal that even they couldn't break in a short time?
This time he was completely honest, and for the sake of his own life, he pretended to be honest and tried his best to recall other valuable things in his mind.
But in fact, he already had an idea, because there were not only them and the sealed ancestor hero nearby, but also other existences.
He even hid deep malice. That place was a place they dared not to provoke. If the elven wizard went there and was killed, wouldn't he be able to take revenge indirectly?
Then he pretended to be enlightened: "Oh, right, there is a small valley five or six miles northeast of the sealing array. We found even thicker fog and some phantoms. We suspect..."
Before he could finish his words, he suddenly screamed and hugged his head: "Oh, my God, what did I do wrong? Why are you punishing me like this?"
But he was destined not to get an answer. Just when Levi became alert, pale flames burst out from the necromancer's eyes.
In less than half a second, it quickly burned all over his body, turning him into a tiny bit of ash, and then disappeared with the wind.
Levi's eyes suddenly focused, because the black tentacles and steel restraints that he used to reinforce the restraints were also annihilated.
Considering the name the other party called out before he died, who else could it be except Visharoon himself who cast the spell?
Obviously, the necromancer himself might not even know the importance of the information he just said, but Velsharoon knew it.
Although this guy did not come here for revenge in person, after I scolded him a few times, his consciousness was always paying attention to this place, and at the critical moment, he ruined my good deeds.
Unfortunately, this is just what he thinks.
He quickly glanced around and saw that despite the dwarves' brave fighting, a large number of undead were like crashing into a steel wall, and there was not much achievement at all.
The zombies and skeletons that crawled out of the soil were no match for the dwarf's crossbowmen and musketeers. The dwarf's ranged units were basically experts in close combat.
On the contrary, with the death of the Necromancer, not only did the fighting power of the undead begin to decline slowly and steadily, but the surrounding fog also seemed to dissipate a lot.
Our victory is just a matter of time.
But the enemy's number is still large, at least two or three thousand, and this battle is destined to not be over in a short time.
But Levi didn't want to wait any longer, so he temporarily handed over the battle here to Elegy, Alyssa and others to command.
After greeting the dwarves, he called over Cindy, Elegy, the little female dragon and a group of celestial creatures, and summoned a 6th-level Red Flame Messenger, and marched directly in the direction the Necromancer had just mentioned.
The more Velsharoon didn't want him to know, the more he wanted to find out.
As for whether this was a trap set by the other party, he was not really afraid of the other party taking action personally, because he had Lilith behind him!
Moving forward along the way, following the direction given by the necromancer, they soon approached their destination.
As they continued to move forward, they also discovered something strange, because there were also undead blocking the road, and most of them were ghosts.
More importantly, each of them has bared fangs and claws, and looks extremely ugly and ferocious. Not only are they human-shaped, but there are almost all kinds of races.
Generally speaking, the size and strength of a monster are closely related. Small size does not mean weak, but large size tends to be very strong.
So when Levi saw the spirits of giants and dinosaurs begin to appear, he became a little more cautious.
But after he rushed forward and killed several of the largest enemies in seconds, the Elite Red Flame User felt very uncomfortable.
"Sir, these guys don't seem to have any aura that is unique to the undead."
Levi also nodded slightly. The opponent's fighting ability was seriously inconsistent with their appearance. Almost all of them were pure cannon fodder. So let alone them, even those guardian angels who were not very good at attacking could almost kill their opponents in seconds.
Moreover, he seemed to have vaguely seen something similar somewhere.
Mist and phantoms...
Levi couldn't help but show a genuine joy on his face. It seemed that he might really be lucky this time.
No wonder Visharon acted so anxious just now. He might even be very regretful at this moment. If he could get the information here one day earlier, perhaps the development of things would be completely different!
At this time, Cindy, who had also killed several dinosaur ghosts, flew back with a look of surprise and expressed the same opinion.
Then she added, "Just like back at Hellgate Castle."
Levi rubbed the other person's head with a smile: "As expected of Cindy!"
After her real body was killed by Cyric and Mask, the Phantom Goddess Leila disappeared.
Her strength was originally much weaker than that of Visharoon, and the strength of the church and believers was also inferior to the other side, but she has not completely perished until now, which shows that she is indeed hiding very well.
Could this be one of her bases, or perhaps it is the habitat of her current body?
Those ghosts that seem so majestic may actually be phantoms in disguise!
Cindy accepted his compliment with a blushing face, but she felt somewhat strange in her heart. After learning about the relationship between Levi and Elegy, she seemed to have grown up a lot in an instant.
Now that Levi does this to her again, she will inevitably have some special emotions...
Wangge next to him couldn't help but laugh, feeling that he saw something of the meaning.
Influenced by the gods worshipped by the Amazons, mainly Zeus, she believed that the strong should have more power, wealth, strength and women.
Levi is now undoubtedly a strong man, and as the relationship between the two becomes closer and she learns more and more, she gradually develops a sense of crisis.
He was not a man she could have all to herself.
So she had been persuading Donna recently that good sisters should learn to share, but Donna just couldn't let go of her pride.
Unexpectedly, there is an unexpected gain now?
Well, that's right. Although Cindy is not very old, some parts of her body are not small at all. She has reached the age of a young girl thinking about love. In this case, maybe I can...
Levi didn't notice the other person's strangeness, because in his heart, she has always been a cute little sister.
He simply readjusted his battle strategy, using numerous celestial creatures as vanguards to speed up his advance.
At the same time, be prepared to call for Lilith's arrival at any time.
The Phantom Goddess - Leila, is not an evil god herself, she is of the chaotic neutral camp.
But even her Kingdom of God was destroyed, and now there is no telling how many people in the main world are obsessed with killing God. She will not show any welcoming attitude towards the visit of an outsider like herself.
Because this phantom goddess has no friends at all and is truly alone, and now she is at her weakest and most destitute.
I'm afraid that everyone who comes to look for her has the same purpose, which is to kill her!
Even though there were a few enemies on the road, the distance of several miles still passed in a flash, and soon Levi and others arrived at the entrance of the valley.
Perhaps they had sensed their arrival, so some beings were already waiting for them there.
There were five or six giant dragons, each of which was at least several times larger than the small female dragon.
There are more than twice the number of Tyrannosaurus Rex behind them, and they are also extremely large in size. Even if they are smaller than the mount of the previous Lizardman legendary hero, Kuja, they are still extremely limited.
All in all, just from their appearance, it can be seen that their combat effectiveness will be extremely amazing.
The little dragon couldn't help but get nervous, because judging from their size alone, each of them was capable of beating her up.
But she felt a little strange, why are these dragons so diverse? Their camps and races are all different.
Could it be that the other party is such a powerful being with extraordinary strength that even the normally hostile dragons are willing to surrender to him and would rather side with their enemies?
But Elegy was rather excited. It was the first time she saw so many Tyrannosaurus gathered together since leaving Paradise Island.
At the same time, their size is unusually large, which means that their combat power must be extraordinary. If Donna were here, she would be extremely excited, right?
After all, any Amazon who can defeat a Tyrannosaurus Rex alone is a legendary hero!
Among these huge creatures stood a person wearing a long robe. Her face could not be seen clearly, but one could only judge from her slender figure that she should be a female priest.
As Levi and his men approached, the other party immediately shouted in a rather cold tone: "Back off, elf, this is private territory!"
As she spoke, the dragons and Tyrannosaurus Rex behind her also responded with roars.
But Levi was not very afraid, and even found it a little funny, because those dragons, red, blue, white, gold, and bronze, of all colors, could form a rainbow team.
However, these dragons are chaotic and lawful, good and evil. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for them to live in peace, let alone fight side by side.
Especially the white dragon, which was as orderly as the other dragons at this moment, which seemed particularly outrageous.
However, he did not look down on the other party because of this. Most of these dragons must be fake, but there was a chance that one or several of them were real.
So he immediately turned to look at the little female dragon, wanting her, who was also a dragon, to make a judgment first.
But Catherine was a little undecided for a moment , because in her opinion, the other party was indeed real, not an illusion as Levi said, so she could only shake her head quickly, indicating that she could not be sure for the time being.
Levi didn't say anything special. If the other party was the Phantom Goddess, it was natural for her, a level 6 elite, to not be able to see through her.
So he still followed his original plan, using courtesy before force: "Sorry for coming here rashly and disturbing you."
"But I heard that the phantom goddess Leila is here, so I came here on behalf of the goddess' good will."
As he spoke, he began to pray silently in his heart.
If nothing unexpected happens, Lilith will still need to show up in person, so it’s better to notify her in advance.
“W-what…”
The female pastor was shocked. This was exactly the problem she was most worried about. No matter which god it was, they would not have a good attitude towards her because she didn't have any friends at all!
Then she gritted her teeth and mobilized her own strength. More dragons and Tyrannosaurus Rex came out of the mist behind her and roared and threatened Levi.
At the same time, she also took out a long whip that was shining with brilliant light. The whip was decorated with several giant dragon head skulls of different colors. It looked lifelike and it was obvious that it was not an ordinary item.
She pointed her long whip at Levi: "I don't know what you are talking about, step back and leave here immediately, or don't blame me for being rude!"
Seeing the opponent's performance, many celestial creatures became nervous. Let alone so much, any random dragon would be enough for them to handle.
They couldn't help but look at Levi. Even if the enemy was very powerful, if it was Lord Levi's order, they would fight to the last moment!
But Levi just smiled. He had originally planned to chat with the other party for a few more words, but since the other party always had this attitude , there was no need to say more.
Even though he was increasingly certain that most of these dragons were fake, even if one was real, it would be enough to put them in a tough battle. There was no need to take the risk, right?
He just prayed silently again.
Then a few seconds later, the fog and moonlight that Levi was very familiar with came again, along with some green moss in the swamp and a slightly gloomy night, representing four different gods.
Obviously, after hearing Levi's prayer, even though he didn't say it firmly, Lilith immediately made all the necessary preparations.
Even though the other party might just be a god who had lost his kingdom, had his body killed, and was forced to walk in the main world as a saint, she still used all her strength.
Before they fully appeared, the female pastor screamed and stepped back.
Unfortunately, it was too late. The moonlight and mist quickly spread, not only blocking everyone's sight, but also leaving only a few people such as Levi, Elegy and Cindy.
It even formed a wall of energy, blocking the female priest's retreat, but did not touch her at all.
At the same time, Lilith's gentle voice rang out: "Lila, are you so afraid of seeing me? Remember, I have helped you a total of 7 times."
Over the past thousands of years, she has made friends with many gods under the identity of Lilith.
Even though Leila was alone and her godhood level was not high, she still treated everyone equally because she possessed a special priesthood - the Mist.
Levi next to him was also a little surprised. He thought the other party might be Leila's chosen one, or the leader of the church or something like that. He didn't expect that it was her who came in person?
Her situation has become so bad that she doesn't even have a single useful person under her command?
Of course, the reason why he was so surprised was that the other party's performance just now was really not good, and she was a little too strong.
Even the whip has a dragon head on it, which is really outrageous. Does she think that such a weapon is the most powerful?
As Lilith finished her words, she, Moonbow, Illidan and Sobek, four gods, descended at the same time.
They all seemed to be following Lilith's lead and had no intention of saying much. They just looked at each other with either a smile or cold eyes.
Only Sobek grinned at Levi, because although Levi was not there, his territory and his guild were working closely with the crocodile people.
Not to mention the trade with Swineherd Town, recently the Sun Knight and others have been conquering the south and the north in the Underdark and have captured large tracts of territory.
The night elves and crocodile people also gained more habitats. Although Levi was not there, he still shared some of the credit.
Because if he was not there, the Sun Knight would have more choices. After all, the elven pantheon has dozens of gods.
And another thing is that after Khalida decided to believe in Lilith, it is foreseeable that he will benefit from it in the future.
Even if he left the pantheon and chose to join the elven gods, he was still confident that he could gain a lot of faith.
In fact, the reason is very simple. He is one of only two people in the original pantheon who can fight on water, and he is also the best at fighting on water.
Another goddess who was good at water battles was Isis, but as the sister of the King of Gods, her main duties were magic, followed by marriage, love, weather, agriculture, and finally rivers.
Originally, more than 90% of the Tomb Raiders' territory was desert. Of course, he was of little use to the Tomb Raiders, as those proud guys were very realistic.
But the eastern part of Khalida's territory borders the sea, and he will definitely be very welcome there.
And Khalida's change is also closely related to Levi.
So no matter from which perspective, he likes the current Levi very much.
Levi naturally responded with a smile. Although this big crocodile was a bit playful, he was indeed very generous. Many of the equipment he got from him were still not outdated even now.
At this time, the female pastor who was suspected to be Leila also sighed and gave up struggling completely, because she knew that she was not even qualified to negotiate terms now.
"Lilith, I still remember your kindness, but I have fallen to this point now. Please forgive me. I can no longer trust anyone."
Lilith didn't care because she had already roughly understood the truth through various channels.
In addition to being ambushed by the joint forces of Cyric and Mask, Leila's church in the main world had also been infiltrated by the enemy.
Almost at the same time when Xirik took action, many high-level priests of Leila and a larger number of middle-level personnel also directly chose to betray.
The Xirik Church, which had been prepared for a long time, took the opportunity to start a large-scale massacre, which almost caused her church to completely lose its ability to resist overnight.
Otherwise, with the constant prayers of her believers, even if she suffered an unprecedented blow, she would still have a chance to make a comeback.
But now her sect has fallen apart, and the only remaining loyal believers are constantly being hunted down. She can't get much power of faith, and has no way to recover her divine power. She can only find a place like this to linger on.
But now that Levi discovered her by chance, her fate will change completely.
"I understand that, but the fact that we haven't taken action yet already shows that we came here with sincerity."
Lilith then changed the subject: "Are you still going to entertain us with these phantoms?"
As gods, they basically have the ability to see through illusions and phantoms. Now that the strength gap between the two sides is so huge, the things created by Leila are completely meaningless to them.
Leila certainly knew this, but the reason she maintained these illusions was, on the one hand, to scare away these mortal creatures, and on the other hand, to maintain her most basic decency.
Unfortunately, she can't even do that now.
Sighing deeply again, she waved her hand, and in the blink of an eye, all the dragons and Tyrannosaurus disappeared, and even she herself underwent a huge change.
The long whip in her hand disappeared without a trace, and her body shrank rapidly, from an adult woman to a little kid about one meter tall, which is basically equivalent to the height of an ordinary three or four-year-old human child.
Levi was also a little speechless. He suddenly understood why the other party had that attitude just now and why he used too much force.
Because she has no cards to play at all!
Although the gods appear to be humanoid, they are actually energy bodies formed by highly compressed and condensed divine power.
Now that Leila has become like this, one can imagine how weak she is.
After doing all this, Leila seemed to have given up completely: "Lilith, am I being honest now?"
Not to mention, as her body changed, her voice also turned into the clear voice of a little girl, but her pretty face was now filled with decadence and loneliness, which didn't quite match her appearance.
Just think about it and you will know that she is a goddess after all, but now she has to be at the mercy of others and her fate is not in her own control. The complexity of her feelings cannot be easily described in words.
Lilith smiled and said, "Very good, Leila, I feel your sincerity and understand your feelings, but don't be discouraged. I have prepared a special opportunity for you. I believe we can continue to be friends in the future."
She was already very busy trying to do three things at once, and with the world undergoing new and extremely drastic changes recently, she needed to put in even more effort.
Even though gods never feel tired, she was somewhat tired mentally.
Now is a very suitable opportunity.
As the former Phantom Goddess, Leila originally possessed a total of four divine duties. Among them, the Phantom was completely shattered in the War of Gods, along with a few fragments of her divinity, which fell into the main world and no one has found it until now.
The clergy - illusion and deception, were both taken by Xirik.
Some of the Mist's possessions were taken away by Mask, the God of Thieves, but she still had some left.
The former Phantom Goddess should now be called the Mist Goddess.
In this case, wouldn't one of her identities, Lady of the Mist - Radlily, have found the perfect helper?
But to do this, she would need to reveal some secrets. After all, she had always been walking among the gods as Lilith, a woman with weak divine power.
Thinking of this, a divine light flashed in her eyes, conveying some information to the other party.
So the little loli Leila, who was originally dejected, suddenly widened her eyes, obviously she was completely shocked.
Radlily's godhood level is 6. She was not so strong before. How could Lilith have such an identity?
But then she also understood that if she did not agree to the other party after knowing such a secret, then perhaps only complete death would be waiting for her.
Even though Lilith behaves so friendly, for any god, other weak gods are perfect prey.
It's not about good or evil, it's just because killing any god may make other gods stronger.
Moreover, this may be her last chance to turn the tables.
Since Lilith has been planning for so long, and now has many gods behind her who are willing to obey her orders, what she is planning must be no small matter.
Even though those gods didn’t seem very strong, they were at least stronger than I am now.
Perhaps, by choosing to follow Lilith, he would not only be able to survive, but also have the opportunity to take revenge on those two evil villains, Cyric and Mask!
Thinking of this, she nodded without hesitation: "Okay, Lilith, from today on, my life and future will be handed over to you!"
"Haha, believe me, Leila, you will never regret it."
