Long Live the Call of Heroes

Chapter 211 The Mercenary Group of the Dogs of War
Li Wei quickly got some loans from the Red Brotherhood, and visited all the remaining temples.

This time, the priests of Lilith and Moonbow were very enthusiastic and allowed him to recruit a certain number of troops. Li Wei added 5 priests, but declined the night elves.

At the same time, he couldn't help guessing secretly that it seemed that the other temples might not have spare troops, but their reputation was not enough, so they were not open to him.

But this kind of thing can't be forced, he doesn't have so much energy or financial resources in a short period of time, to focus on the reputation of a certain temple to slam it, because compared with the many crusade or collection tasks issued in villages and taverns, each Temple missions are usually relatively difficult.

They are either priests and believers who need to kill the enemy gods, which is not only difficult, but also directly offends the temple to which the opponent belongs;

Either it is to donate some valuable items or special props. Although the gods don't care about money, the temples and priests still like these things in order to better develop believers.

It's a pity that they are also very precious to the God's Chosen heroes. At this stage, few people take out large sums of gold coins in exchange for prestige. It's not that they don't want to, it's just that they don't have that much money.

Turning around again, Li Wei originally wanted to go to the Magic Tower to see if he could learn some useful little magic, but before he knew it, he turned into a noisy street, mainly because he heard many gods Pick special words that only heroes will say.

Then he found that it was like a large vegetable market, at least a hundred God's Chosen Heroes were sitting on the ground, with simple blankets in front of them, shouting something loudly.

A larger number of aborigines are shuttling back and forth, looking for suitable targets, or simply joining in the fun, and there are many voices of bargaining, making the whole street extremely lively.

Li Wei also became a little interested, so he took Donna and others to try to find something of value.

Although he doesn't have half of his own gold coins on him now, but after killing so many enemies, he has not too few other trophies on him. There are more than a dozen low-level skill books and magic books alone.

Moreover, Donna's best friend has not come for a long time, and the few +3 swords that were originally prepared for her may have to be sold outside, because Li Wei feels that if they are delayed, they may not be very valuable.

It's a pity that I saw a lot of stalls in a row. Although the things sold by the other party are strange, in addition to equipment and skills, there are also various special items.

Including but not limited to mission items of unknown origin, eggs of monster-type units, seeds of plant-type units, and other messy things, and even some units.

But there are only a handful of things that Li Wei can really take a fancy to.

Because most of them seem to be trophies from demons or greenskins. Apart from various heavy cold weapons, they are just some gadgets that increase fire resistance and fire attack, which are not of much benefit to Li Wei's team.

Occasionally, it is more suitable. These stall owners often need to exchange other specific things, or they often open their mouths and ask for prices.

They have good eyesight, and from the style of Li Wei's equipment and the magic light they emit, it can be seen that they are relatively rich.

Cindy was eager to try and bargain for Li Wei, but the other party could easily confirm her identity as an aboriginal through details such as her age and eyes, and didn't want to pay attention to her at all.

Although Li Wei was not too nervous, he certainly didn't want to be taken advantage of. After all, most of the things the other party could sell were not particularly precious, so he didn't bother to bargain with the other party.

After careful consideration, he finally succeeded in purchasing two magic specialties at the cost of a bunch of small skills and a +3 great sword. The recipe - hunting shackles, finally came in handy.

But after thinking about it for a while, he still didn't choose to use it at the first time, because the weapon enchantment alone was enough for him to work, and he should wait until he recruited mage-like subordinates, or after Diva formally joined him, and then handed it over to the other party. use it.

He learned the second transcription scroll directly, and then he also learned another specialty that he had obtained before - making magic scrolls. If he has time, he can prepare some related materials so that he can make it by himself.

In this regard, there is really no way to entrust all the magic to Tiwa, because the amount of magic that Tiwa knows is too small, and most of them are earth-type magic with relatively large limitations. Only in the hands can the greatest value be brought into play.

Thinking of this, Cindy suddenly exclaimed: "Brother Li Wei, look over there, there is actually a goat here."

Following the direction of Cindy's finger, everyone saw a guy with a human upper body and two long hairy thighs and sheep's hooves on the lower body. malicious.

Cindy was just curious about why a guy with obvious beast characteristics could sneak into the town, but Julia was suddenly a little surprised. She turned around and asked behind her: "Bayolu, do you think it's that guy?"

The Elephant Warrior, who has always been very silent, immediately said in a low voice: "It is indeed him. I remember the flute on his waist."

Li Wei also realized something, and he thought about it a little bit: "Is he the guy who was with you at the tavern in the village?"

When Julia and Bayoru were first recruited, there were other people in the tavern. Although Li Wei finally chose only two of them, he still had a bit of an impression.

Julia nodded immediately, and then she was a little puzzled: "But it is said that he is only a Tier 2 elite bagpiper, how did he get here?"

"You seem to care about him?"

Li Wei became a little bit interested. If it was just an ordinary acquaintance, even if the other party was of a special race, Julia should not be so concerned. Could it be that she once thought about performing the duties of a witch hunter and judging the other party? ?
"He said he held the secret of a treasure, and was looking for someone to go on an adventure with him, and he even invited me and Bayoru, but he failed every time, and in the end he was the only one left to escape by chance, It made me feel weird, so I said no."

"If I didn't join your team soon, my lord, maybe I would go and investigate secretly."

Bayolu next to him also nodded. Although he came out to take risks to increase his knowledge, his mother said that such a good thing that came out of nowhere must have a trap, and he couldn't easily believe it.

Cindy and other people with a strong sense of justice frowned, because according to Julia's description, this guy doesn't sound like a good person.

And it seems that he doesn't have any companions around him now, and he doesn't have a God's Chosen Hero to which he belongs, which makes them even more curious.

Before Li Wei could speak again, Donna suddenly laughed: "Julia, are you sure he is the bagpipe player? How did I see him stealing things from the two god-chosen heroes one after another?"

Li Wei became more and more interested. As we all know, the bagpiper can basically be understood as a monkey version of the bard, with incomplete professional skills, but even the bard's skills don't include stealing. How did this guy do it?
Especially since he still stole it from God's Chosen Hero. Are the occupations and classes he said true?
Li Wei thought about it carefully, but he didn't have a clue for the time being.

Because the half-goats are really a very, very weak race, and there is very little relevant information. Not only are their numbers extremely small, but their strength is also extremely low, and they are even far less popular than halflings.

Tier 2 elites were placed among other races, at most they were prestige in Novice Village, but among the half-goats, they could already be regarded as the mainstay of the entire race.

Reminiscent of the pair of goat horns on the opponent's head, Li Wei suddenly had a vague idea.

If some flame effects are added, the appearance of this half-goat seems to be [-]-[-]% similar to that of another race called demons, both of which are goat heads and goat hooves!

"Come on, let's follow up and see what big secrets this guy may have."

As soon as Li Wei said the words, before his subordinates had time to react, he suddenly felt something was wrong, because the other party even glanced at him, and showed a sly smile, as well as a trace of provocation.

He knew that he was being watched by Li Wei and the others, but he was not afraid at all!
At this time, there was a sudden commotion at the entrance, and a group of people happened to walk in, but with such a slight impact, the satyr immediately went straight into the crowd, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Cindy, Julia and others subconsciously wanted to catch up, but soon they had to give up, because more noise came from outside, it seemed that a large number of troops were entering the city, and even the streets seemed a little crowded for a while , which immediately made them a little annoyed.

Instructing Zhou Miyin to go and see what happened, Li Wei patted Big Lolita on the shoulder to express comfort: "Cindy, don't be angry, I have a hunch that we will see him again soon. "

Originally, he was just a little skeptical, but the look the other party looked at just now made him confirm almost instantly that his suspicion was not wrong, and the strength of the other party was definitely not a second-level elite half-goat.

But then he had more questions. If the other party was really a demon, why could he escape the detection of magic?

Is there any special magic, or is his strength already beyond the scope of detection?

No matter which aspect it is, this is not a good phenomenon, especially now that he seems to be being targeted by the other party
However, the soldiers will block the water and the earth will cover them. At worst, I will follow the regular army to participate in the battle of Black Castle. If the opponent really has the courage to come to make a surprise attack, the aborigines will definitely not sit idly by.

Thinking of this, Zhou Mi came to him at a quick trot, and said excitedly: "My lord, it's not the return of the regular army, but some war groups from the dogs of war, including some of Sam's clan , but instead of war geese, they brought some big cocks!"

Now everyone put aside the matter of the goats for the time being, not only Li Wei, they were also interested.

Tyrell, the dog of war, is a very famous mercenary country in the main world.

As the name suggests, it is full of guys who can give you their lives like dogs for money, and there are a large number of mercenary war groups haunting the whole world at all times.

It wasn't long before the high elves and the demons officially started fighting, and these mercenaries rushed over like sharks smelling blood.

In Dogs of War, you can find mercenaries from almost any faction, faction, or race. Humans, elves, dwarves, etc. are too common, as are ogres, halflings, and Norscan pirates. Very common.

As long as you give enough money, you, an elf, may hire lizardmen, green skins, skavens, or undead, etc. races that usually don't like money, or have serious conflicts with your camp.

What's more, it is said that there are more than one real war beasts such as dragons or phoenixes.

All in all, except for demons, devils, and beastmen, which are purely for destruction, other races can basically be found in the dogs of war.

So when they heard that there was a mercenary war group coming, everyone was very excited, not because of the combat effectiveness of the other party, but mainly because there was excitement to watch.

In comparison, it wasn't particularly unusual for the halfling to bring some big cocks.

After all, halflings basically had no choice but to find this mutated beast as a battle pet or a mount because of their own height, size, and even strength shortcomings.

So they put aside the matter about the goats for the time being, and prepared to join in the fun together.

It's just that when he actually came to the main street, Li Wei felt that he might not just watch, he might try to recruit some troops, because some of them could make him tempted.

At a glance, the battle group that entered the city this time probably belonged to three different battle groups. The first one was the halfling with the big cock that Zhou Miyin just mentioned.

Unlike most halflings, they don't use crossbows, but use bows as weapons. This scene makes Li Wei want to laugh. A small bow less than one meter is like a toy if it is not enhanced by magic.

Then came some majestic cocks that were more than half their height. Looking at their gleaming iron claws and sharp beaks, Li Wei felt that their fighting power might be higher than that of war geese of the same level.

Some of the leading halflings are also playing their own banner, which is called "cockfighting group".

But Li Wei felt that the combat effectiveness of the chickens in their team might be stronger than that of the halflings. In short, he had no interest in recruiting them at all.

The second battle group is some humans. Their own equipment and momentum are not very good, but their weapons are particularly eye-catching, because they are obviously some light artillery drawn by horses.

These artillery were placed on special vehicles similar to sleds, which looked very flexible. It was obvious that their marching speed would never be slowed down. "Speeding Artillery Team" was the name of this battle group.

As for the last battle group, Donna, who had been smiling with her arms around her shoulders, was taken aback.

Because they turned out to be some Amazons with tall hair, tattoos all over their skin, and many gorgeous bird feathers, animal tails, and even various trinkets all over their bodies!
Almost all of these Amazons are equipped with bows and arrows, throwing spears or spears, and most of them are accompanied by cheetahs, war lions, several small and medium-sized dinosaurs, and a war beast or beast that looks a bit like a ferocious ostrich, but is obviously stronger. mounts.

Li Wei knew that he must have made a move, and they looked much tougher than ordinary Alion predators.

In contrast, their clothes were a bit too primitive and revealing, and even made Cindy and Janet blush a little, but it was not a big problem.

At least if they were in the team, the morale of Zhou Miyin, Simon and others would definitely be boosted to a certain extent.

Although there are too many oil paints and tattoos, it is impossible to see their specific faces, but in terms of figure alone, they are all young beauties full of vitality.

"Donna, are they your acquaintances on Paradise Island?"

Donna shook her head lightly: "No, I have never seen them before, but the star blades on the waists of their three leaders are only qualified to be worn by true Amazon heroes, I should not have heard of them what?"

Donna was a little confused, but Li Wei was not particularly surprised. Spartans can have gods, and they can have their own territories in other overseas places. There are more other gods, and it is impossible to just count on Amazons on Paradise Island offer Faith, right?

They must also be opening sub-bases!
The only thing he didn't expect was that, according to Donna, there were three Amazons who were all heroes?
"What is the strength of their troops?"

"Except for some Tier 2 deep forest warriors, those with animals around them are at least Tier 3. Moa cavalry archers are rare Tier 3 cavalry, and the strongest Cold One cavalry is Tier 4."

"As for those big cats like cheetahs, I have never seen them before, so I don't know their strength."

Only then did Li Wei know that the names of those big birds were moas. As for the stronger Cold One cavalry, to be honest, he was not particularly interested.

Because of this ferocious shape, it is called a lizard, but in fact it looks more like a dinosaur, and it appears in both lizardmen and dark elves.

It is somewhat similar to the Deinonychus he once summoned. They are basically born with the characteristics of madness and primary fear spreading. They are easy to go crazy after seeing blood. They will be extraordinarily brave when they abuse vegetables, but if they fight hard If it is not, they will often disobey the command, and then send the knight on their back to die together.

As for the big cats, he hadn't paid much attention just now, but now after Donna's reminder, he discovered that some of the guys he had mistaken for cheetahs were actually some kind of mutated big cats.

Although they look similar, the patterns on their fur and their lazy posture are enough to show that they are not real cheetahs.

Seeing that God's Chosen Heroes had already moved over, Li Wei didn't want to delay, so he directly took Donna to find the leading three Amazon heroes.

Donna spoke first: "Hi, sisters, I'm Donna from Paradise Island, where are you from?"

The other party looked up and down, and seemed to be a little surprised to see a fellow clan here: "Hehe, a strange and powerful fellow clan, I am Anaconda, the anaconda from Lustria."

She is the tallest and strongest of the three Amazon heroes, and the battle armor on her body seems to be made of some kind of python scales. I don't know if that is the origin of her nickname.

"The flag bearer - the bird."

As the name suggests, she holds a battle flag with a certain kind of bird in her hand, and she doesn't know who has made who between her and the battle flag.

"Piranha-Pirana."

Compared with other Amazons, she is much shorter in height, basically the same as Cindy, and the weapon she uses is also somewhat special, a pair of iron claws. It seems that her fighting style is likely to be similar to that of a wolf patroller.

In addition, a star-like long sword hung uniformly around their waists. According to what Donna just said, it was not only a representative of their identities and status, but also a pretty good weapon.

But Levi's real concern was something else.

Lustria, that is a tropical rainforest that is almost completely occupied by lizard people, only in the coastal areas occasionally there are human adventurers, Norsca and undead pirates, and almost everywhere Skaven active.

Now these Amazons claim to be from there, so what is represented behind this is unusual. If you think about it casually, you know that since three heroes can be sent out to take risks, the Amazon's influence there must not be small.

But before that, neither Donna nor Li Wei had received any relevant information at all.

Therefore, their existence is probably the work of the gods behind Amazon.

Then let them out suddenly now, does this mean that they intend to show their cards?

Donna also widened her eyes suddenly, unable to understand at all: "Luschia?"

But Anaconda just chuckled, and didn't want to explain further: "So sister, do you want to hire or recruit now? Since everyone is of the same race, I can give you a discount, how about a [-]% discount?" ?”

Li Wei and Donna were a little speechless when they heard the words, good guy, the friendship between the same clan is really worthless.

Saying so, the anaconda has already handed over a parchment scroll, which listed in detail the strength and characteristics of several arms, as well as the gold coins needed to hire or recruit them, obviously already very proficient in this.

It costs less to hire, but the time is short, and once you die in the process of hiring, you need to pay a considerable amount of compensation, so Li Wei directly looked at the recruitment option.

After a quick glance, he found that their names were basically the same as what Donna had just said.

In terms of price, it is several percent higher than other units of the same level, but the advantage is that, except for the second-level deep forest fighters, all other Amazons carry a mount or war beast with them. Most of the arms of the same rank.

At the same time, he also figured out the names of those big cats. They were really Lustria wild cats, and they were also Tier 3 troops. They had terrain adaptation and anti-infantry skills, and they could basically be regarded as a weakened version of Donna's big white lion.

It's a pity that Li Wei left the animal trainer in Bitao Village to help Tiwa train the vicious ostriches. Otherwise, if he commanded them, the leveling speed would definitely increase a lot.

After sighing a little in his heart, Li Wei directly recruited 20 moa cavalry archers. They belonged to the cavalry and shooting unit, but when forced to enter close combat, they can also have good combat effectiveness with the moa on the crotch.

Although as a price, their recruitment fee and maintenance are also double, but it is worth the money.

He intends to equip Julia. These Amazons are also from the lawful neutral camp like Donna, so there will be no impact on morale.

As for the guys that Lisa Dilan went to recruit, they were all under his command.

After paying the money, Anaconda was very satisfied with his straightforwardness, praised him casually, and expressed his expectation to continue to cooperate in the future.

Originally, both Li Wei and Donna wanted to continue chatting with each other and learn more about each other's information, but at this time, many god-chosen heroes who had originally set up a stall over there had already rushed over, and several Amazon heroes had no idea at all. There is no time to greet them.

Li Wei was also a little helpless, but he quickly realized that these Amazons seemed to value money a bit. If he could recruit more troops, he might really be able to get more information.

As the god-chosen heroes continued to hire or recruit, the entire street was soon blocked. Li Wei wanted to go to see those artillery, but he couldn't walk through at all.

Fortunately, some aborigines arrived soon, and Li Wei noticed that the Mikaela mage whom he had seen before was also one of them.

They didn't know what they had said to the leaders of the several wargroups, but soon cheers sounded, and the high elves began to evacuate the traffic, leading the several wargroups to the barracks and other places.

The other god-chosen heroes around who hadn't had time to make a move immediately let out a series of laments and complaints, because they felt that they might have missed another good opportunity to replenish their troops.

If these aborigines didn't make a move, they would basically not even leave soup for them. There was no way, who made them rich and powerful?
At this time, the white battle song came out of nowhere: "Damn it, I missed it again this time!"

Then he looked enviously at the 20 vigorous Amazons following Donna: "Vice President, congratulations."

Li Wei smiled: "Don't worry, you should still have a chance."

He didn't think it was a big problem. Mikaela and the others probably only hired, not recruited.

After many contacts, he already understood that although they looked polite on the surface, the arrogance of the high elves was deep in their bones, even Reiner and Risadilan were no exception.

The reason why he didn't show it to him was entirely because they belonged to the same clan, and his strength was not bad.

So Mikaela and the others should look down on each other, at least absolutely impossible to look down on the Fighting Chicken Group, and the other God's Chosen heroes should also have a chance.

But my luck is really good. I just came here and encountered this kind of thing. The aborigines definitely didn't hire them to defend the city. There must be a big battle soon.

Soon the flow of people on the street became sparse, and Li Wei also noticed that Mikaela was left alone, and under the guard of some silver light guards and some white lion guards of Charis holding two-handed giant axes, Walked over to him.

Unexpectedly, the God's Chosen heroes around didn't take the initiative to surround them, asking for a task or something, but retreated one after another, which was completely inconsistent with their usual style.

Li Wei secretly speculated, could it be that Mikaela made them suffer?

Mikaela came up and said very directly: "Li Wei, we have successfully cracked the things you brought over, thank you for your contribution."

Before she finished speaking, Li Wei received a system prompt saying that his reputation in Ash Ridge Town had been improved, and he had also obtained a certain amount of military merit points.

But he didn't pay much attention to it, because he knew that the other party must have something else to say.

Sure enough, Mikaela continued: "But at the same time, we also deduced that there should be more than one similar place. The undead are obviously planning a huge conspiracy, but unfortunately there is no exact address recorded on it."

"I don't know Li Wei, are you willing to continue the search mission? If you can find it, even the Lord Lord will not hesitate to reward you, and you can also share this mission with other god-chosen heroes."

Li Wei pondered for a while: "I'm afraid it's not easy to find."

The area of ​​the colony is so large that there are more than a hundred miles from Maple Leaf Village to Ash Ridge Town. Someone even calculated that this colony is almost as large as the real Wanwan Province. Without any clues, he had to How many years have you been looking for?
"Of course it will be difficult, so several mages who are proficient in enchanting and manufacturing are trying to make some detection equipment for the undead, and the results should be available soon, and I don't recommend you to act immediately, because the next There may be a big battle in the future, which is the favorite of your god-chosen heroes."

Although Li Wei had already made a rough guess, he still felt the kindness of the other party, and he immediately nodded with a smile: "In this case, of course I am willing to contribute my own strength."

"By the way, when is it convenient for the acting lord? I want to find a chance to meet her."

"She is engaged in a secret mission, and she should be able to come back before dark." Mikaela said with some uncertainty.

This answer was beyond Li Wei's expectations. Instead of directing the battle with the Black Castle Demon, he went to participate in some secret mission?

In the end, when facing the demons of Castle Black, the high elf was more comfortable than he imagined, or was this task really important enough?
Speaking of which, the Doom Star took away the thing sealed by the Balrog before, and I don't know what to do with it in the end.
While thinking about it, Li Wei asked a question again: "I want to know, does the detection magic faction in the town have an upper limit or some obvious weakness? I suspect that a suspicious target may have fooled it. "

Seeing that Li Wei's expression did not seem to be fake, Mikaela was slightly surprised: "It was built by many mage heroes in the town, and there are usually special mages to cooperate with the magic tower to maintain it. If you want to not be noticed , At least level 15 or above legal occupation is required."

Upon hearing this, Li Wei, who was still somewhat thoughtful, was suddenly dumbfounded.

At level 15, he is still a mage. It is conservatively estimated that he has already learned 6th and 7th level magic. If there is a head-on conflict, how many rounds of magic can these people under him survive?

So he quickly described to the other party the appearance of the satyr bagpiper and what happened to him. If Mikaela is willing to do it, it is obviously much more convenient and faster than him looking for it himself.

"Is it a suspicious half-goat man? Got it, I will send someone to check, but considering that the other party may be very powerful, I will not make a big show of it. During this time, you should be careful."

Li Wei nodded immediately, but before he could say anything else, he suddenly received a system prompt.

"Attention: The elite assassination team from the legendary black dragon Black has approached within 10 miles of you. Based on some kind of magical effect, they have locked your current position. They are marching towards you at full speed. Anyone who blocks them will be regarded as them." for the enemy."

He immediately laughed. Although it was a few hours earlier than he had estimated, these guys were still late.

Just right, then I will stand on the city wall and wait for them to come over, just to see if they have the courage to declare war on the defenders of Ash Ridge Town?
