Long Live the Call of Heroes

Chapter 120 New Subordinates

Janet also nodded quickly: "Yes, my lord, there are more than a hundred infantrymen behind, and the opponents should all look like humans!"

Following her opening, smoke and dust appeared faintly in the distance. Looking at the beaming Zhou Miyin, Li Wei probably had a guess, but since the other party didn't speak, it's obviously not sure yet, so it's better to be on the safe side , defense first.

But they didn't make them wait for too long. In less than a quarter of an hour, the visitor had already arrived in front of them, and as they continued to approach, the smile on Zhou Miyin's face became brighter, because the opponent was a piece of armor. Distinctive Cathay troops.

And Li Wei's expression became more and more weird. He couldn't help but stare at Zhou Miyin, who was unconscious. Is this what you call a poor, dilapidated, extremely declining village?
How do I feel, even if there are a certain number of high elves stationed in other villages except for the half-elf village of Green Blade Village, but these troops can easily flatten any novice village around them?
First of all, there are Jade Brave Spearmen and Crossbowmen in scale armor, who are dressed in the same clothes as Zhou Miyin;
Then the battle armor became thicker, and the weapons were replaced by the Yuyong halberd soldiers with long halberds, the Yuyong crossbowmen with a shield in one hand and the crossbow in the other, the Yuyong lancers on horses, and the long-range warriors with heavy crossbows and muskets. Cavalry, they are all Tier 3 arms.

Then there are more than 2 terracotta warriors with slightly slow movements, and some movable stone lions more than three meters long. They are the unique structures of the Cathay Dynasty. Their actual combat power is also slightly different, but at least they all have the strength of the second level, and they seem to be quite deterrent.

It is even said that at the gates of the major cities and towns of the Sinian Celestial Dynasty, there are still some big guys with a height of tens of meters, holding a super giant Guan knife, and they are called warrior guards.

It is said that they are super units blessed by the Cathay Dragon Gods. Destroying the steam tanks unique to the Sigmar Empire, or the gates of towns, is as pleasant as mowing grass, and just by looking at their size, they are absolutely It's quite capable.

As for the long-range units protected in the middle, they are iron hail gunners who use extremely large caliber muskets. They fire shotguns and are good at fighting unarmored or low-armored infantry units.

The other kind of caliber is much smaller, but the gun body is long, just like the beautiful long neck of a red-crowned crane. They are called crane gunners, and they are good at targeted sniping.

Although there are men and women among them, they are all Tier 3 units, and they are all wearing iron-inlaid cloth armor, which seems to be not low in defense.

Then there are three Taoist priests holding mahogany swords and whisks and wearing gossip robes, but Li Wei doesn't know their strength, because no one has successfully recruited them yet, but no matter how you look at them, they will definitely not be lower than Tier 3.

There are some carriages, ox carts and the like in the back. Li Wei glanced at the traces that were pressed out casually, and knew that it must be full of various things. He suddenly understood a little bit. This is obviously a Caravan, it seems that the other party probably didn't come here specifically to find him.

Their leader is a cavalry unit riding a tiger. Not only is the armor on his body much more luxurious, but his weapons are also extremely special. They look like a combination of muskets and spears, and there are red lights shining on them , obviously has a certain magical effect, even cooler than the fire blade gun that Li Wei had obtained before.

And beside him are two fat men who are more than four meters tall and carrying super giant two-handed swords.

Li Wei is no stranger to them, they are also one of the initial optional races ogres, but ordinary ogres basically don't wear armor, at most they tie a shield or a pot cover on their stomachs, and their weapons are basically They all love heavy cold weapons like maces.

But these two guys are all in heavy armor, definitely weighing hundreds of catties, and the big sword in their hands is definitely not light. Once they charge, they are probably more powerful than ordinary cavalry. Subdue them.

However, considering the characteristics of the ogre race, they probably still promised a lot of food, right?
Then came a dozen tiger-men warriors in the true sense of the word, holding machetes and looking majestic.

Li Wei, who had already expected it, was fine, but whether it was the well-informed Donna, or Cindy, Sam, Janet and others, they were all very surprised or even shocked.

Because generally speaking, all humanoid creatures with certain characteristics of beasts are basically enemies of the race of order, such as murlocs, kobolds, centaurs, harpies, wild boars, etc., all belong to this category.

Because they are not only wild on the outside, but also full of bestial rage and bloodthirsty in their hearts. The same is true for the jackals in the rocky highlands.

Although there will be very few special cases, for example, some tauren will be willing to do business with humans;

Half goats are mostly chaotic neutral thieves and fun people, and they are very common bards and thieves in the mercenary kingdom;

Some catgirls and fox girls, etc., can often serve as maids and so on in the homes of human nobles by virtue of their beauty.

But that is relatively rare after all, and you can basically find some docile animal characteristics from them. Most other races with more ferocious or brutal beast characteristics still habitually go to war with order races.

So these tigers, who seem to be extremely ferocious, actually serve as human guards together with the ogres, and they seem to get along very well, which really opened their eyes. Talent, you can't be so exaggerated, right?

Of course, in order to avoid embarrassing Li Wei, they forcibly suppressed their surprise and did not act too much.

But Li Wei felt that this was normal, not to mention these tiger men, shrimp soldiers, crab generals, monkey soldiers and bear soldiers were not uncommon in the cities and towns of the Cathay Dynasty.

He even suspects that any humanoid creature with a little brain may eventually be fooled into a part of the Cathay Dynasty. They are truly inclusive!
There were still hundreds of meters away, and the caravan stopped on its own initiative, keeping a safe distance, and then the leader with a resolute face, who seemed to be no more than [-] years old, stepped forward alone, and clapped his hands together. He said politely, "This is Zhou Jiliang from Zhoujiazhai, the leader of this caravan. I don't know that the God-chosen hero Li Wei is in front of you?"

Zhou Jiliang from Zhou Family Village?Li Wei quickly glanced at Zhou Miyin who couldn't hide his excitement, boy, have you been hiding this all this time?No wonder you swore at the beginning that you could recruit people with just one letter. It turns out that you are all surnamed Zhou!
And according to the naming method of "Bo Zhong Shu Ji", there are probably three other guys as strong as him?
"That's right, I am Li Wei, Zhou Miyin, your fellow clansmen are here!"

As soon as his words fell, Zhou Miyin waved at the other party excitedly: "Uncle Clan, I'm here!"

When he shouted this, the atmosphere between the two parties became much more harmonious in an instant, and they exchanged a few words of courtesy. After Li Wei learned that the other party was indeed a caravan and was currently preparing to go to the human country in the northwest, the two parties quickly met. Get down to business.

Probably because Zhou Mi had been greeted by Li Wei before, or it had been discussed before coming, so Zhou Jiliang was very straightforward, and after a few words, he handed over a list, which clearly marked the ranks of several arms, Approximate strength positioning, the number of recruits and the price of recruitment.

And the price is not expensive, much more sincere than that black-hearted old witch of the bee tribe.

He even made it clear that because their caravans and villages need guards, there is no way to provide too many soldiers for the time being, but if their village becomes stronger in the future, or the relationship between the two parties is better, they may not fail to do so. opportunity for change.

It's a pity that those Taoist priests, ogres, and tiger men are not on the recruitable list, and Li Wei can only live with his eyes.

Li Wei was not ambiguous, and directly spent most of his savings. He had been waiting for this moment for a long time!

So immediately there were 15 second-level Yuyong spearmen and 2 third-level Yuyong halberd soldiers in his team. He temporarily assigned them all to Zhou Miyin's command, which directly excited Zhou Miyin. Get flushed.

Li Wei chose to strengthen the melee troops as much as possible.

He knew that if he tried to dig a hole for the kobold heroes next, he would have to fight the dragon warriors again, and their presence would be crucial.

The skills and attributes of the Yuyong spearmen are similar to those of Zhou Miyin, but they are slightly weaker, and they also have special skills that are only possessed by the two Cathay units, Ning He and Yin Yang He He.

The Yuyong halberd soldiers will be stronger. Like Guang Yakong, they are equipped with green equipment, a long halberd and a piece of armor. In addition to the enhanced attributes and defensive power, they also have Two new skills have been added.

The first one is Armor Breaking, nothing to say, it is better to break the opponent's armor when attacking, causing 3-5 points of extra damage.

The second is to counter charge. When cavalry units charge against them, they will slightly reduce their speed because they are afraid of the halberds in their hands, which affects the power of the charge.

Coupled with the anti-large and charge-resistant skills that the original Yuyong spearmen possessed, they have completely become the nemesis of the cavalry unit. Li Wei has no doubt that in the process of one-on-one duels, they can hang and beat the same level 3 cavalry unit. Allion Cavalry.

And next time they encounter enemies like trolls, they can also play a considerable role.

Although the trolls are not cavalry, they are large units, and they can also launch charge-like skills like cavalry units. The Jade Warriors are their nemesis.

Similarly, ferocious beasts such as wolves, dogs, tigers, etc. will also be severely restrained.

Of course, the Yuyongs are not without weaknesses. First of all, they have low agility, and they almost have to wait to die when encountering long-range units. Secondly, several of their skills will only take effect when facing the enemy head-on. If you attack from multiple sides, you will also die quickly.

But Li Wei didn't think it was a big problem, because since he joined his team, he certainly wouldn't let them face strong enemies alone!
As for special structures such as terracotta warriors and stone lions, they all need to cooperate with special soldiers such as Taoists to better display their combat effectiveness, because they are essentially driven by magic. It's not perfect after all.

In terms of cavalry, he temporarily has the Elion cavalry, there is a little conflict, there is no need to spend more money on this, and he has temporarily given up both of these.

Similarly, those crossbowmen were also given up by Li Wei. Although their defenses are very strong, and there are even advanced troops holding a crossbow in one hand and a shield in the other, they are obviously good at fighting shooters, but their attack methods are different from those of the archers. Donna's current subordinates are a bit uncomfortable.

But for those musketeers, after a brief consideration, he gave up the short-range iron hail gunners and chose to recruit three more targeted crane gunners.

Name: Crane Gunner
Race: human

Alignment: Lawful Neutral

Faction: Royal Power - Cathay
Tier: Tier 3

Attributes: Strength 6, Dexterity 8, Constitution 7, Intelligence 3, Wisdom 5, Charisma 3
Life: 70
equipment:

Crane Gun (Green-Excellent): Attack 2-15, slow reload, maximum range +20 meters.

黑火药子弹10/10X3（绿色-优秀）：攻击0-5。

(Need to be used with firearms)
Iron-Inlaid Cloth Armor
skill:
1. Elementary firearms proficiency, passive skills, can use some firearms, and when launching an attack, its own agility attribute will be added to the attack power of the firearm;

2. Aiming, active skills, after a short charge, slightly increase the hit rate and crit rate;

3. Crane Gunner, passive skill, when using firearms, attack power +8, maximum range +20 meters.

talent:

1. Ninghe;
2. Yin-Yang Hehe-Yin: Passive skills. Most of the troops of the Cathay Dynasty can be divided into one of Yin and Yang. When they enter the battle, they will produce different effects according to their strength and Yin-Yang.

Currently Yin: The effect is Agility +1, Attack Speed ​​+10%.

Maintenance cost: 2.2 credits (weekly)
Consumed leadership: 4.

(In the face of the elegant and precise volley of crane gunners, only the truly strong can survive)
As a Tier 3 unit, the Crane Gunners' attributes are very low in all aspects, but their equipment and skills perfectly make up for this. After being placed under Donna's command, their maximum attack power will break through 40 points. And it also has a range advantage.

So in fact, their positioning is already very obvious, that is to launch targeted sniper attacks at critical moments, and then defeat the enemy with one move!
This trick may not be able to deal with rough skinned and thick guys like dragon people, but it will be particularly effective when facing bosses like kobold wizards and other crisp-skinned god-chosen heroes .

Even Li Wei had already foreseen that if he had the chance to meet those two Jackal God-Chosen Heroes next time, he would definitely teach them a more profound lesson!

But in this way, Donna's leadership is somewhat stretched, not only because the number of half-elves is gradually increasing, but also because with frequent battles, many half-elves who have survived until now have also advanced one after another. The leadership required to command them becomes much more.

It seems that unless Donna chooses to upgrade the leadership attribute next time, I should find some special equipment for her. Although the shops in Xinshou Village basically only sell some whiteboard garbage, military merit points can be exchanged for options. , but more than one
The deal was concluded, and the money and the goods were cleared. Now Li Wei is completely poor. Not only is there no money, but also the equipment that can be exchanged for money, and only the acid-etched Dragon Tooth Sword that he got from the Dragon Warrior.

Even from now on, he has to hurry up and get more loot, because tomorrow, those subordinates who followed him at the beginning should get their weekly wages. They are working hard for themselves every day. I don't want to be an unscrupulous boss who defaults on wages.

Zhou Jiliang didn't know about this, but he was very satisfied with such a straightforward transaction. After ordering the troops to rearrange their formation, he also laughed a few times and bowed his hands again.

"Okay, then my brothers and sisters will be taken care of by adults. When I come back from this trip, I will find adults to drink."

"And if we're lucky enough to meet some blind robbers or something, we might even get something that adults are interested in!"

Zhou Mi couldn't help laughing when he heard the words. Outsiders thought they were ordinary villagers. After getting to know them a little bit, they realized that besides farming and hunting, they can also do business, but in fact their abilities are not limited to this.

If anyone really thought they were easy to bully and tried to rob them, their expressions would definitely be very pleasantly surprised, and Zhaizi would benefit a lot from it.

Not only Master Li Wei can profit by killing hostile evil races, but also clan uncles can do the same. Both humans and high elves have rewards for many evil forces all year round.
Although Li Wei was a little unclear for a while, it didn't matter, just ask Zhou Miyin later.

So he also agreed very happily: "Okay, then I will wait for the good news."

Zhou Jiliang nodded again, and then he glanced at the mounts of the crowd. He seemed a little hesitant in the end, but he finally spoke: "Your Excellency seems to be a mage, so I wonder if you are interested in our lion?"

As if afraid that Li Wei would not understand, he added another sentence: "Although in the eyes of ordinary temples, they are just silent beasts that guard their homes and homes and do not need to eat, so they are called temple town beasts, but for people like you For such mages, they can also be used as mounts."

"It's also a coincidence. In addition to the ordinary stone lions, we also produced a relatively rare glazed jade lion this time."

Li Wei suddenly realized that the system had reminded him before that because of his regional reputation, there might be relatively rare special troops in this team. He originally thought it would be those two special ogres, or It was those Taoist priests.

It's just that they are special and special, but for the current self, the class is too high, so the other party did not provide it for him to recruit.

But looking at it now, the really special ones, maybe the glazed jade lions that the other party mentioned, but I just clearly scanned several times carefully, and didn't see any special lions, they all look exactly the same!

Although he had doubts, but out of politeness, he responded immediately: "Of course, I am also very interested in this."

Zhou Jiliang nodded, then looked at the Taoist priests behind him.

One of the old Taoist priests snorted immediately, and saw him flick the whisk, a ray of light flew by, and one of the seemingly ordinary stone lions suddenly seemed to have been wiped off a layer of dust, and the whole body became transparent Get up, in less than three seconds, it turned into an extremely exquisite glazed jade lion!
Good guy, this is deliberately hiding its clumsiness. Otherwise, just looking at its appearance, I am afraid that many blind guys will come to make trouble. If it is the kind of dragon that likes shiny things, or other powerful races , this must be quite troublesome for Zhou Jiliang and the others.

Similarly, this is also a troublesome thing for me, my current strength is much worse than Zhou Jiliang's.

Seeming to see his concerns, the old Taoist said hoarsely: "Don't worry, this is its special fighting stance, and it will have extra magic resistance at this time, but if it's only used as a mount, or to deal with some Xiaoxiao, It doesn’t have to be like that.”

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Li Wei's worries disappeared immediately, and he smiled immediately: "Okay, since that's the case, I'd rather be respectful than obedient!"

So Li Wei quickly changed to a new horse.

Glazed Jade Lion (Level 3): strength 15, agility 8, constitution 13, health 130, natural defense 8, movement speed 16, normal load 450 kg.

Skill 1, Glazed Light, a passive skill, can activate its special state with the help of magic instilled from the outside world, providing it with 5-10 points of magic resistance, and the duration increases with the infusion of mana, at least 15 points/3 minutes, instilling mana This status can be turned on or off at any time after that, and if there is a rider, this effect can be shared with the other party;

Skill 2, passivation, passive skill, has 5-8 points of damage reduction for normal attacks other than blunt strike, but cannot run or charge;

Skill 3, Jade Lion, a passive skill, does not require any supplies, and cannot gain experience points through combat.

But you still need to instill 50 points of magic every day, or feed 1 unit of micro-magic spar and magic elements of any attribute, before you can move or attack normally, otherwise you can move or fight for up to 4 hours a day, and the jade lion will be in a dormant state for the rest of the time to accumulate strength.

At the same time, when it is attacked, it cannot heal itself through time. It needs to use special repair skills, or feed magic crystals and magic elements of any attribute to repair it.

Consumed leadership: 3.

(Occasionally, some special cases will appear when the alchemists of Zhendan burn stone lions)
In terms of strength and other attributes alone, this special mount is even stronger than the third-tier elite's Flame War Goose, but its consumption is obviously higher. Whether it is magic or magic spar, it means money, and Once he joins the battle, Li Wei can almost predict that it almost means that he will continue to lose copper coins.

But if you just use it as a mount, you can save a lot of money.

And the special state of this glazed light, in addition to improving the rider's magic resistance, it is really handsome.

Don't talk about yourself, even Cindy and Donna have shown interest. Even if they don't use it in the future, they will definitely not worry about its whereabouts, and it seems that Zhou Miyin's stockade is quite strong, then In the future, I can't say that everyone needs to communicate more.

Thinking of this, Li Wei first nodded to the old Taoist priest, and then imitated his example and bowed his hands in salute: "I am very happy to make friends with Mr. Zhou, so I wish Mr. Zhou a smooth journey and all the best in everything!"

As soon as the words came out, Zhou Jiliang and several old Taoist priests were obviously stunned for a moment. There was even an old Taoist priest who was stroking his beard and broke several of them.

Because in their eyes, the other party was a high elf with long donkey ears. This race has always had eyes on the top of the head and was very proud, but this time they met, the other party was not only unexpectedly kind, He can even say such words, which is not like ordinary high elves.

From this point of view, maybe the future transactions can really last!

With such thoughts in mind, Zhou Jiliang immediately replied directly: "Okay, then thank you sir, there will be a date later!"

　I've always wanted to write about the Three Kingdoms, but if it's Three Kingdoms + Warhammer, I don't know if I've got a head start.
