Chapter Seventy-Three: A Small Frustration

Cold, slightly salty blood splattered on Levi's face, but he didn't have time to wipe it, just raised the spear in his hand and silently stabbed the White River Fishman warrior in front of him again.

At the same time, Xiao Bai also took the opportunity to make a swoop, directly knocking the White River Fishman Warrior in front of him to the ground, and then its body paused slightly, and the next moment, the shining claws kept waving in the air, and the big canopy of blood mixed with broken fish scales splashed out, and several white numbers continued to emerge from the top of the White River Fishman Warrior's head, which is Xiao Bai's special skill after being upgraded to a second-order elite - random attack!

The White River Fishman Warrior suddenly twitched in pain, it writhed its body hard, trying to throw the enemy out of its body, but Levi didn't give it time, he stepped forward again, and a shot pierced the opponent's chest, not sharp, but still powerful wooden spear, and finally took away the last trace of the opponent's health, this White River Fishman Warrior's struggling action suddenly stopped, because it was dead.

There was a soft "ding dong", and a small shiny object fell from under the White River Fishman Warrior. Levi didn't even look at it, just picked it up, put it in his space bag, and then quickly picked up his spear and faced the next enemy, because the hordes of White River Fishman warriors had already rushed in front of him.

Despite the coquettish command of Hua Meisi from time to time, Levi didn't have any more time to pay attention, he just followed closely around the warrior Davi and the tamed grizzly bear, and rushed forward desperately.

After a few minutes, Levi suddenly felt a sudden brightness in front of him, and there were no enemies standing in his way.

Levi looked back and found that he had broken through the formation of the White River Fishmen, but there were still a few halberders behind him who were moving a little slower and did not rush over, and they were surrounded by some White River Fishmen warriors in order to cover the more vulnerable archers.

And there are two special fishmen with thin stature and obscene appearance hiding behind those warriors, stretching out the short dagger in their hands from time to time, which brings damage to the halberders, and also stains them with a faint layer of frost, which is the culprit of the serious disconnection between the halberdiers and Levi and others.

In the distance, the shark-man with a long-handled battle axe, who had already smashed the ice elemental into flying ice slag, was roaring loudly towards this place.

The warrior Dawei stood beside Levi a little nervously: "My lord." ”

Even if Levi didn't look back, he knew what the other party meant.

Compared with ordinary soldiers who have a very low intelligence level and can only simply obey orders, although his strength as an elite unit is not particularly far away, he already has his own thinking and judgment, and he is reminding Levi: It's time to make a decision!

Levi estimated a little, and knew that he couldn't rescue the halberd soldiers before the shark man arrived, although he noticed the unwilling Hua Meisi next to him, but in order to avoid greater losses, he still gritted his teeth fiercely: "All the staff began to retreat!" ”

As he began to retreat, Levi began to calculate his losses this time. After he figured it out, he couldn't help but feel even more heartache, because in this battle, in addition to losing 3 halberders, there was also a swordsman who didn't know when he fell behind and completely disappeared into his system panel. The small army that he had managed to pull up directly lost nearly one-third of it after such a battle.

But looking at Hua Meisi, who was full of guilt and even more depressed next to him, he still tried to cheer up: "Hua Meisi, you are commanding very well this time, please continue to keep it up." ”

Hua Meisi, who was still there complaining about herself, was stunned for a moment, her face full of guilt and unwillingness: "But, but because of my command, we lost four soldiers... ”

"That's not your reason, it's just that the enemy is much stronger than us."

Levi didn't give Wallace a chance to question himself, because after such a long time, he already had a slight understanding of why he had recruited the other party so easily.

In addition to all kinds of coincidences, there is also a very important point, that is, Huamesi is still in the growth period, she still needs to experience real actual combat, and she needs further training, not like other ordinary troops, she can start her combat career perfectly when recruited, and now she is still too immature.

Levi grabbed Hua Meisi's shoulders, looked the other party in the eyes, and said word by word: "If you don't want to suffer such a fiasco in the future, we need to grow up as soon as possible and become stronger as soon as possible." ”

Hua Meisi looked at Levi in a daze, and then she also gritted her teeth and nodded fiercely: "I will, Levi." ”

"Very well," Levi nodded in satisfaction, then let go of the Wallace, "let's move on and get back to Oak Village as soon as possible." ”

On the next road, Levi and the others also encountered a lot of enemies, and they were holding back a lot of anger because of their previous losses, so they directly launched a ferocious attack and vented their anger on these enemies.

They proved themselves with battle, and even if they had just suffered a crushing defeat, even if they had lost a few members, they were still enough to deal with those low-level White River Fishmen!

Passing by the place where the Ice Elemental had been recruited, Levi searched the river carefully, but found no trace of the Flowing Water Altar.

Levi frowned, and after noting the time again, he decided to come back tomorrow. Although the ice elemental affects morale and the recruitment price is expensive, its combat power is indeed not low, and it is worth the price.

If it really doesn't work, let Huames lead the ice element alone, and lead the rest of his subordinates himself, so that it will not cause morale punishment, although this is a bit of a waste of Huames's battle bonus ability, but he now urgently needs to strengthen the combat strength of his small army.

Back in Oak Village, Levi found that the mysterious wanderer was still there, and he looked very leisurely basking in the sun. After he nodded slightly at the other party, he planned to report directly to the village, and he was not interested in continuing to talk, but he didn't expect the other party to take the initiative to stop him.

"Wait a minute, Hero, it looks like you're in for some surprise."

"We had some enemies that we could not resist, and in order to get rid of them, my troops paid the price." Levi didn't intend to hide it too much, because with the other party's intelligence level, it was very simple to judge his own situation, and the number of people became smaller, so naturally there was a loss.

"Oh, can you elaborate on that?" Despite the other party's expressions, the mysterious wanderer seemed to be interested in what happened to Levi.

Although Levi was a little surprised, he didn't hesitate to think that the other party had issued a task to him before, so he recounted the general story of the incident.

After hearing this, the mysterious wanderer also lamented Levi's loss, and then asked: "Lord Hero, I don't know if there is any possibility of obtaining the ice element and the flowing water element you mentioned before?" ”

Levi narrowed his eyes: "I'm not very sure, I can try it, but it may take a little time." ”

He had already made a note of the time when the Flowing Water Altar appeared, and all that was left was that he needed to look at it a few more times to validate his idea. If the Flowing Water Altar appeared there every once in a while, then he would be able to summarize the pattern of its appearance sooner or later, but if it only randomly refreshed there once and then never reappeared, then Levi would have no choice, so he didn't talk too much.

The mysterious wanderer nodded slightly: "That's enough, after all, this kind of elemental creature is rare, and it is even rarer to be able to be recruited freely." If you want, I can buy you some ice elementals, well, the flowing water elemental also needs 2 heads. ”

Although the power of these primary elemental creatures is not worth mentioning in her opinion, they are also from the water system, and she hasn't seen them for a long time, so she just used them for some small experiments.

With the words of the mysterious wanderer, Levi also found that a new mission popped up in front of his eyes, with a lot of rewards, and a lot of money in addition to experience points, but he still didn't follow up immediately.

"As for the mission, I can accept it, but the movement speed of those water elements and ice elements is very slow, and if I carry them, it will seriously affect the advance speed of the troops, and they can be easily lost in battle."

Of course, although he said so, but in fact, Levi did not mean to refuse, he was just bargaining, this mysterious wandering merchant has made a lot of money from his own recently, Levi has noticed that the equipment she buys at a low price from her often sells it to other soldiers in the village at a high price as soon as it changes hands, although Levi can understand it in his heart, but he is inevitably more or less unhappy.

But unexpectedly, the mysterious wanderer just nodded faintly, and then took out a few small glass bottles with a shimmering light from the space bag on his waist: "My lord, if you find it inconvenient, you might as well use this magic prop." ”

Levi took it, looked it up and down, and found that this thing was really made of glass: "This thing is really useful?" He asked, looking at the object's properties.

But before Levi could finish reading, the mysterious wanderer had already taken the lead in explaining to him: "Yes, my lord, these low-level elemental creatures can be directly packed into this special elemental bottle after being recruited by you. In that case, it will be much more convenient for you, right? ”
