I saw a large stretch of continuous black buildings, covering an area of thousands of square meters, very abruptly towering on the empty plain, around it is a large gray-black, full of ominous land, although there are some flowers and trees on it, but all are decayed gray, as if it has lost all its vitality.

"What a thick dark atmosphere!"

When there were still hundreds of meters away from even the gray-black land, Ophina immediately frowned: "Levi, don't move on, such a powerful energy is enough to revive the scattered bones in the ground on their own, there must be many low-level undead hidden under this land." ”

"It's strange, I've never heard of an undead building here, it's not that far away from Nunn, it's just a few skirmishes here, it's just a very inconspicuous ancient battlefield." Offie was puzzled by this.

Levi waved his hand and motioned to Hua Meisi and the others in front of him to stop advancing temporarily.

"That's because this is a sudden change that happened two days ago, and this is not a traffic artery, so it basically has no impact on Nun for the time being, so the chief justice did not send troops to encircle and suppress it, but gave me this task."

Levi was actually very pleasantly surprised by this matter, which was essentially no different from the hidden mission, and the rewards were also very generous.

Before leaving, the Chief Justice had already said that in addition to the basic rewards such as gold, reputation, and experience points, if he completed the mission, the next time he returned to Nunn or Wisson, he could also choose any 4 squads of Tier 4 troops, including rare classes such as Golden Lion Knight and Harbinger Squire, and even if there were hero-level units in the undead here, Nun could pay a higher reward.

Of course, with such a generous reward, the difficulty of this task will definitely not be low, but Levi believes that with the current strength of his group, there is still no big problem, especially before he left, he deliberately squatted in the Nunn War Armory for a while, and with his good relationship with the justice, he recruited some very good new troops in advance.

"Two days ago? Wasn't that not long after we encountered the demon Tzeentch? ”

"Yes, that's it."

In order to try to attack that copy, Levi stayed in Nun for a few more days, and according to the intelligence, this happened to be a mutation that happened during that time, in the original, this was just an empty plain, although there have been several skirmishes in history, and the Nunn army has defeated some beastmen here, but that was also a few years ago.

Orfini nodded, no longer delving into the useless details, but began to summon the soul of Shame, she also had something new to test through real combat.

Seeing that his group had already set up a formation, but there was still no movement in the continuous undead buildings in front of him, and not even a scout came out, Levi didn't care, he had already known the strangeness of this place from the justice.

In the past few days, even if there were occasional Nunn scouts passing by, or any passers-by, they were not attacked by the other party, so the chief justice was not in a special hurry to send troops to exterminate this place.

Of course, this has to do with the fact that the Emperor Karl of the Empire began to convene the Electors of the various provinces to hold a war meeting in the capital city of Aldolph, and the Elector of Wesson, the countess to whom the Chancellor was allegiated, was temporarily absent from Nunn, and the Chancellor needed to sit in the city.

At the same time, at this juncture, the Chief Justice seems to have discovered more information about the Skaven, so he can't get out of it.

"Flame Blade, send me all the war bases!"

After being promoted to a Tier 5 elite unit, Levi spent a lot of money on Nunn, reconfigured the opponent with a more powerful mechanical warhorse, and began to assign certain command tasks to the opponent.

This guy has the strength and a bit of brains, and he is very loyal to himself, if he just wants to be a senior thug, it will be a bit of a waste, if only pure cannon fodder, Levi can be recruited with money, or exercise the other party, so that he can command some troops in the future.

You must know that even Thanato, who keeps saying that he is just a combat hero, has now begun to try to command the troops, and the combat hero just can't have an attribute bonus to his subordinates like a battle hero like Bloomis, but the correct battle strategy is often more important than those attributes.

"Yes, sir!"

Soon, under the command of the Flame Blade, four horses that looked very bulky, drawn by several horses covered with iron armor, and the carriages behind them were far more than ordinary carriages, almost like the carriages of some mobile fortress, and came to the front of Levi.

With a command, the heavy carriage was opened, and more than half a squad of soldiers, as well as some real war machines driven by gunpowder, were suddenly revealed, which were some smoothbore guns with stubby barrels-mortars!

Compared to the higher-tier cannons, which Levi has not yet recruited, the mortars are slightly smaller in caliber and have a shorter range, but at the same time they are also more mobile and carryable, and they are all Tier 5 troops.

These wagons are not ordinary, they were specially researched by the Nunn engineers, without affecting the effectiveness of the mortars, and at the same time emphasizing the maximum defensive power, in case the valuable mortars are destroyed by the enemy's long-range troops.

The combination of these two makes it a rarer class than ordinary mortars, because ordinary mortars can't be moved so easily, they are rare classes of Tier 5!

War Fortress (Mortar)

Tier: Tier 5 (Rare)

Attack 100, Defense 10, Health 400

Skill 1, Siege Machine: As a relatively flexible war machine, the mortar on the war fortress has additional damage to buildings, and the attack is increased by 50% when attacking buildings;

Skill 2, Moderate Armor Piercing: Ordinary armor has no effect in front of the projectiles fired by the mortar cannon, and ignores the enemy's 10 defense points when hitting directly;

Skill 3, War Machine: As a war machine, the mortar is not affected by morale and most negative skills;

Skill 4, bombardment, the shell of the mortar is hollow and filled with explosives, so the explosion and gravel caused by it after each shot will affect many enemies, and after hitting, it will cause additional damage to the enemy within 1-3 meters in diameter of the target, and the attack power will be attenuated according to the distance from the center of the target, with a maximum attenuation of 80;

Skill 5, Loud Roar, many weak creatures will be frightened by the loud noise made by the mortar attack, and have a greater chance to reduce the opponent's morale by 1-3 points when attacking the enemy (only effective for 0-4 units);

Skill 6, Slow Reloading, although improved and placed on horse-drawn carriages, they are still heavy war machines in nature, and ammunition reloading is a very complex operation, which can be loaded and fired once per minute;

Skill 7, Charge, after emptying ammunition, the war ramparts can charge the enemy like cavalry, and because of their heavy mass, this charge will be far more lethal than ordinary cavalry, and the attack power will be determined according to the distance and speed of the charge when charging, but the maximum will not exceed 60% of their own attack power.

(Although they are less maneuverable, have poor range, and are slow to reload, their firepower is real)

Although the attack speed is very slow, but the attack power of up to 100 points and the bombardment skill that can damage the enemy in the range of the enemy, but to a large extent make up for this shortcoming, ordinary 4th order troops, the front will be killed instantly, and there is no chance of rescue, and its bombardment skill is very suitable for the undead and Skaven Ratmen This kind of low-quality, high-quantity race.

Levi's spear pointed: "Flame Blade, aim for me at the tallest building in the middle, and be careful, don't let all the mortars attack at the same time, do it in batches, I hope their fire suppression can continue forever." ”

Yan Blade was stunned for a moment, but soon he understood what Levi meant, and he immediately responded excitedly: "Yes, my lord." Mortar ready, from left to right, 15 seconds apart! ”

Li Weiston showed a satisfied look, and the other party was really very perceptive and lived up to his expectations. Although the mortar cannon is very slow to reload, it can barely form a cycle if the time is allocated properly.

Of course, the best-case scenario is that the walls are full of cannons, like Nunn or Blackstone Castle, and you don't need to think about this at all, just blast the enemy in the face.

The mortars quickly launched an attack on the buildings in the distance, and with a loud roar, the dark buildings were shattered in an instant, they were not particularly strong, and it seemed that with enough time and ammunition, these four mortars could reduce the entire building to the ground.

However, the enemy did not give them this chance, as the second round of shelling began, a terrible cry was heard in the distance, first a large black oppressive thing flew out of the building, and then the original gray-black, full of ominous atmosphere, also began to agitate, and soon a large number of skeletons with red eyes radiating red light, and zombies and other low-level undead came out from below.

As they crawled out of the ground, they began to move in the direction of Levi and the others, and it was clear that they were definitely not here to chat.

Levi looked at it casually and knew that these skeleton soldiers should have been beastmen when they were alive, and their bones were still very different from humans. He didn't care about the cannon fodder though, Combat Commander Wendy was more than enough to deal with the situation, he just stared at what was rapidly approaching in mid-air, and then he quickly realized that it was a swarm of red-eyed bats.

Levi's eyes narrowed immediately, although it seemed that these things were only the highest level 1 troops, but he was not careless, he applied the Burning Technique to all archer-type units, and ordered the increasingly powerful and mature half-elves: "Sienna, attack these bats first." ”

Sienna immediately commanded all the ranged units such as archers and musketeers, and began to fly into the air to shoot on behalf of the bats.

Although when attacking air units, their range and accuracy will be reduced, but after all, they have a large number of people, and the health of bats is the same as for them, and the bats in mid-air began to crack and fall non-stop, and by the time they flew dozens of meters away, their number was already less than a quarter of the beginning.

On the surface, it seems that Levi is overthinking, and the bats do not show anything out of the ordinary.

However, Levi continued to keep the warrior monk Chen Cone and Yurik Teutonic guards on their toes, and then he made one last attempt, throwing a spell that disrupted the enemy, the Curse of Madness.

In fact, when facing almost any enemy, Levi will try to use the Curse of Madness, because if he succeeds, he can disrupt the enemy's offensive steps, and if he fails, he has nothing to lose, and the cost performance is quite good.

At this time, this spell achieved an effect that Levi had not expected.

With a series of strange roars, the eyes of some members of the bat colony suddenly burst into a compelling red light, and then with a series of muffled "bang" sounds, the bodies of those bats quickly changed.

Less than three seconds later, at least four squads of humanoid creatures appeared in their original positions, and glided directly towards Levi and the others from mid-air, looking at the bats behind them, and the sharp fangs sticking out of their mouths, how could Levi not know the true identity of the other party?

This is a group of vampires disguised as bats, and they are at least level 4 guys, and ordinary vampires don't have the skills to transform into bats. If they do fly to Levi's side, or to the side of an ordinary musketeer, it is really threatening.

Unfortunately, due to coincidence, Levi's spell broke their premeditated plan in advance, so these vampires did not land next to him in the end, but appeared more than ten meters away, in front of those Nunn ironclads.

In the face of these enemies, the Nunn ironclad army did not have the slightest fear, and some of the members closest to them put away their muskets under Sienna's orders, and instead took off their swords and shields from their backs, although they were not full-time warriors, it was definitely not a problem to resist for a while.

The companions behind them did not stop the muskets in their hands, and the sound of "bang" shooting rang out non-stop for a while, which was exactly how the Nunn Ironclad Army fought, so in many cases, they didn't even need to fight in conjunction with other troops, it was enough for them to rely on themselves.

Without Levi's words, the warrior monks Chen Cone and Dawei had already taken the lead in leading the troops to meet them, and the Ulrick Teutonic guards were divided into two by Levi, two of them went to protect the battle commander Wendy and several Sister Salia, while the remaining two stood firmly on Levi's left and right, after all, as the only chosen hero in the team, his safety was the most important thing.

As if realizing that the vampires' plan to attack had failed, the building, which had been very silent, roared, and a large group of undead of all kinds rushed out through the gates, through the windows, and even through the roof.

Among them, there are not only ghouls, tomb guards, tomb demons and tomb guards that Levi has seen before, but also a large number of elite troops, some well-equipped vampire warriors with blood-colored bats on their chests, according to the division of vampires, they are all knight-level, that is, 4-order units.

But the most striking thing was in front of them, which was about a small group, more than three meters tall, with extremely swollen muscles and a pair of shrunken bat wings on their backs.

Although Levi didn't know their specific names, it wasn't the first time he had seen each other, because in the underground world, they had already killed a similar enemy, which was the berserk White Lady, if these guys weren't good-looking, as long as they could have seventy or eighty percent of the strength of the original White Lady, it was very likely that they were all 5th-order units!

The only thing to be thankful for is that the bats behind them have shrunk up to the point where it is obviously impossible to fly, which makes Levi breathe a sigh of relief.

After the last battle against Tzeentch Demon, he began to collect relevant information, but in the end he had to face a reality, that is, not only for himself, but even for the powerful natives, it is a difficult trouble to solve perfectly when attacked by a flying unit in the wild, they may be able to achieve the final victory, but the loss of battle is inevitable, especially for a god-chosen hero like Levi!
