Chapter 381: First Battle in Blood Raven City

"Boss, the other party's chosen heroes are starting to run away!"

The military advisor shouted excitedly, although he had fought with other players in the Warrior Alliance before, but he was basically bullying the weak, and often beating each other with several times the number of troops, so even if he won, it would not be much fun.

But now it was different, they had directly routed the same number of enemies in a head-on battle, and he knew that this was not all his strength! I really chose the right boss this time!

"Well, I see, but the battle hasn't stopped, or rather, it's just an appetizer before a meal, and I ordered Sky Lone Star to lead a detachment to start the pursuit, and the other troops began to slowly adjust their formation, ready to meet the dark elves. Sienna, keep attacking and don't let the other side have any respite. ”

Levi didn't feel any surprise at the collapse of his opponent, nor was he too excited, because they had a big advantage in terms of strength and organization, and it would be strange if they didn't win.

And to be honest, the speed of the opponent's defeat was a little faster, and he originally wanted to let the evergreen sword put in some enemies, so that he could practice his hands personally, but this is okay, anyway, there is a battle next, so he doesn't have to worry about the enemy not coming.

"Yes, Boss!" The military advisor immediately responded excitedly, and at the same time quickly conveyed the order.

With Levi's order, the speed of the rout of the Chosen Heroes on the side of Blood Raven City suddenly became faster and faster, facing a powerful enemy, they could try to challenge under the temptation of interests and merits, but if they faced an absolutely invincible enemy, they would only be sent to death if they were sick in the brain!

Seeing their rout, the troops of the dark elves of Blood Raven City in the distance were obviously in a commotion, obviously they didn't expect these Chosen Heroes to be so unreliable, but they finally advanced quickly, and from the troops besieging Hemlock Castle, they sent some troops to assist them.

Coupled with the original troops, now Levi and they need to face an army of more than five thousand dark elves, but in this way, the pressure on Hemlock Castle will be reduced a lot, Levi They can be regarded as carrying a pot for each other, hoping that Duke Hemlock can give him a satisfactory reward at that time, Levi muttered to himself.

The dark elves of Tahamat farther away are obviously different, their speed was originally very slow, and now they are even slower, if they look at their current speed, I am afraid that after Levi and Blood Raven City have a victory, they may not be able to rush to the battlefield here!

This suddenly made Levi more convinced of his previous inference, although for various reasons, the two temporarily united to besiege Hemlock Castle, but if there was any place where they could pit Blood Raven City, Tahamat would definitely not have any politeness.

"Ophini, help me keep an eye on Tahamat's movements, and I'm going to deal with the invading dark elves." Although Orfini is not a battle hero who can skillfully command troops, with her ability to summon a steady stream of soul battles, she is enough to become a character in her own right, so Levi is also very relieved of her.

"Well, I will."

The Dark Elves marched faster than Levi had imagined, and by the time they had just set up their formation, a large number of black-clad enemy troops were already close at hand.

Unlike the ragtag units of the previous Chosen Heroes, these enemies are significantly more than one level higher in terms of equipment uniformity and training.

First up are the Dark Elf Dread Spearmen with a spear in one hand and a shield in the other, they are the backbone of the Dark Elf troops, mainly responsible for absorbing damage, and there are also cavalry units responsible for defending against enemies.

Later in the day, there are some Gloomy Swordsmen armed with swords and shields, they belong to the class that is decent in all respects, has no special advantages, but there are no obvious shortcomings, and further back are some ranged units armed with one-handed crossbows and light shields, which are unique to the Dark Elves - Black Sharp Crossbowmen, they are all 2nd and 3rd level troops.

From the equipment on their bodies, it can be seen that the dark elves are quite different from other races, that is, they attach great importance to the defense of arrow-type long-range attacks, and their individual soldier quality is also stronger than that of ordinary humans, you must know that whether it is the empire or the knight kingdom, their spearmen and halberd units do not have shields, not that they don't want to be equipped with shields, but they don't have that ability at all.

Although these Dark Elves are equipped with light shields that are not very effective against melee attacks, the difference between having a shield and not having a shield when defending against ranged attacks is a completely different result.

The lowest-tier infantry units are so elite, and even more so the other higher-tier units. So far, the information summarized on the forums has also shown that although the Dark Elves are slightly inferior to the Dwarves in terms of individual strength, they are definitely among the best of all races, and they do not have the weakness of the Dwarves to move slowly.

Coupled with the fact that the Dark Elves tend to be more well-trained, better equipped, and more cunning than their opponents, it is only natural that they can stand out in the chaotic camp full of madmen and fools and become the overlords among them. It's just that you can only truly appreciate their strength when you are their enemy.

Due to the distance, Levi couldn't see the dark elf army further behind for a while, but if he thought about it, he knew that as the overlord of the underground world in this vicinity, it was impossible for Blood Raven City to rely on these 2nd and 3rd order troops to fight the world, and they definitely had a stronger army.

It's just that even if these dark elves look powerful, they will inevitably be bombarded by the mortar cannons commanded by Sienna for a few rounds in vain. It can't be helped, there are war machines that take advantage of it, and their range is much longer than that of bows and arrows.

But when the dark elves were about to enter the attack range of the small catapult, before the weak water three thousand gave them an order, dozens of egg-thick black spears had already shot out of the camp of the dark elves, instantly piercing the body of the fifty or sixty infantry units, and the weaker ones were directly killed in seconds, even if they survived, they were seriously injured, these dark elves actually had so many ballistas!

And that's not all, some of the black spears are obviously magically strengthened products, they burst directly at the same time as hitting the target, a large number of metal fragments mixed with dark magic scattered and splashed, causing area damage to the surrounding infantry units, although their power is significantly reduced after dispersion, but this is essentially not much different from the mortar cannon's bombardment skills!

Levi and the others were taken aback slightly, they had always used mortars to take advantage of the enemy, and this was the first time they had been suppressed in this regard.

The military advisor next to him couldn't help but shout, "Transfer all these war machines to fight us, have they given up attacking Hemlock Castle?" ”

"No," Levi shook his head slightly, "they're probably too confident, confident enough to believe they're good enough to deal with both of us at the same time. And with the wealth of Blood Raven City, there must be a lot of such ballistas on their side. It's just that in this way, the situation of Hemlock Fort may not be optimistic. ”

Even so, Levi's command did not panic because of this, and when he decided to attack Blood Raven City, he knew that what he was going to face was definitely a hard bone, and losses were inevitable.

Even he had prepared for the worst, if he could successfully defeat Blood Raven City, or even capture Blood Raven City, then all other armies except for the most elite subordinates could be used as consumables!

With the advance of the dark elves, a large number of arrows, guns and even magic are flying back and forth, Levi's side is a variety of low-level magic, while the dark elves are often dark and fire magic, which are also the two they are best at, and the power is also quite extraordinary, there are constantly fighters in both camps who withdraw from the battlefield because of heavy injuries, but more of them have no time to retreat back, and they are directly killed by the other party.

Levi's side has a wide variety of ranged units and a variety of attack methods, while the dark elves have few attack methods, only ballistas, black sharp repeaters and a certain number of magic units, but their attacks are as accurate as surgical scalpels, almost every salvo can directly destroy a certain number of troops, and there are few survivors.

If someone is lucky enough to survive one of their attacks, the dark elves will ignore it at all, and they will only choose the next target in order and fire a second salvo, which is similar to what Levi explained to Sienna, and the other party obviously has a commander system.

Moreover, those dark elf repeaters are obviously just low-level troops who use repeaters, and they have always been known for their attack speed, and only their attack speed is commendable, but the range and attack power they are showing now are obviously abnormal, at least about 10%-15% stronger than those announced on the forum.

Levi, who had had similar experience, immediately judged that the other party obviously had hero-level units, and it was also a battle hero who could increase the strength of the troops, and it was even likely that there was more than one!

Seeing that the two forces have collided together, some dark elves armed with big swords or scimitars dressed as pirates are also in Levi's sight, and they show quite good combat effectiveness, and some female dark elves wearing leather armor and holding double daggers are mixed in ordinary infantry units, exercising the task of assassination, their main forces, as well as elite members such as Weak Water Three Thousand and Sky Lone Star, can still deal with it, but ordinary members seem to be a little stretched.

Levi finally made a decision, "We can't go on like this, we must deal with their ranged units as soon as possible, otherwise even if we win, we will definitely lose a lot, and we really have no certainty about dealing with the main force of Blood Raven City." ”

"Boss, what do you say?"

Vice President Changqing Jian was also a little depressed, because if it was according to the original plan, it would almost be time for him to appear now, but now the long-range firepower of the dark elves is too strong, and the time for him to appear may have to be delayed, and if he rushes out at this time, his losses will definitely be indispensable.

"Evergreen Sword, the command here is temporarily handed over to you and the three thousand weak waters, I will let Ophini and the military advisor assist you together, what you have to do is to maintain the current front, not to show any flaws, let alone give the Chosen Hero on the opposite side, as well as the dark elves of Tahamat a chance!"

Evergreen Sword nodded fiercely, he also knew that now was a very critical time, the question was not whether they could kill these dark elves, but how much it would cost them to be able to kill them!

"Don't worry, boss, I will never give the other party a chance!"

But after finishing speaking, Changqing Jian had a new question, "Then, boss, you handed over the command to me, what are you going to do?" ”

Levi sorted out his equipment, picked up his spear, and equipped the Epoch Acorn on himself, and after doing all this, he took the war horse and smiled at the evergreen sword: "Of course, I want to do what I wanted to do a long time ago, lead the cavalry troops to charge personally!" ”

Five minutes later, the heavily armed Levi had led a thousand cavalry troops, quickly broke away from his own team, and then detoured towards the flank and back of the dark elf troops, if he could succeed in this goal, the remaining enemies would not have to be afraid.

Because the cavalry unit he led this time was the most elite part of the entire Watchers Guild, and it was also the most powerful combat power among them, with Huames, Tanato, Werner, Flame Blade, Davey and others among them.

Later, there were more than a dozen members from the Watchmen's Guild, who chose to set off with Levi partly because they wanted to experience for themselves what it was like to follow a massive cavalry charge, and partly because Levi needed them to use their skills as God's chosen heroes, that is, to add to the combat attributes of the cavalry units further behind.

With the improvement of the level of the Chosen Heroes, the improvement of equipment, and the battle treasures, etc., with or without their bonuses, there is still a big gap in the combat effectiveness that the troops can exert, which is also the fundamental reason why the Beastmen are becoming more and more wild monsters.

Although Levi's, together with Wallace and Werner, can command these thousands of cavalry, but these cavalry are not all Levi's direct subordinates, in order to better convey the order, Levi still chose to bring them.

Further behind are groups of elite cavalry, Golden Lion Knights from the Empire, Imperial Knights, Kingdom Knights from the Knight Kingdom, Ranger Knights, Desert Cavalry from the Arabi Region, Arabi Lancers, and Wild Cavalry and War Deer Cavalry from the Wood Elves.

"Levi, it's been a long time since we've fought together like this, right?" Hua Meisi was very excited, and the white war lion under her crotch was even more snoring, as if agreeing with her master's opinion. Although Tanato and the others next to him did not speak, they obviously agreed with Huames.

Levi laughed, "That's because I've always taken on the responsibility of a commander and need to take care of the overall situation, so I don't have the energy to fight in person." If you were to replace me, I would have personally participated in the battle every day. ”

Bloomis stuck out her tongue when she heard this, and didn't say anything more, she didn't want to command the battle like Levi every day, she preferred to participate in the battle herself.

Levi's elven war horse also seems to be extremely excited, usually Levi just rides on its back to command the battle, but it is rare to fight and charge in person, so that its excellent war horse is completely useless, and now it can finally run wantonly.

However, things did not go as smoothly as Levi had imagined, and when they were halfway around, the Dark Elves who were besieging Hemlock Castle had divided into a cavalry of about the same number, and met them straight up, as if they were going to intercept them.

Among them, there are not only a large number of ordinary cavalry, but also some cold lizard cavalry riding giant lizards, and the cavalry leading several squads, the mount under their crotch is the same as the dinosaur under the seat of Tanato, but it is slightly smaller in size, but this is undoubtedly a fairly powerful cavalry force.

However, Levi didn't have any fear, but laughed, because the army that was fighting with the watchers basically didn't move much, and they didn't have any cavalry troops there, which meant that as long as he defeated the cavalry in front of him, the initiative on the battlefield would completely lie with them!

"Hehe, I thought you were that strong."

Levi raised the spear in his hand high, not dazzling, but a very pure light shone from above, it was his unique fighting power, originally given to him by Judge Theodore, but after receiving the blessing of the goddess of the lake, he felt that this power seemed to have undergone some changes, becoming more pure...

"Everyone listen to my orders and use battle skills!" With a loud shout, Levi was the first to use the flame enchantment, and some of the cavalry behind him began to rise in flames one after another.

And Hua Meisi, Werner and others also used their own skills, Bretonni's cavalry spear formation, wave battle blade, flowing water body, for a while, the colorful skills flashed, almost all the cavalry was covered with more than one layer of buff state, and it was very eye-catching from a distance.

And the dark elves who were charging towards Levi naturally noticed this as well, and the dark elves riding a dinosaur in the lead couldn't help but grit their teeth, just with the other party's hand, he knew that this time would not be as easy as before, but he couldn't do anything like that at all, it wasn't what he was good at at all.

But just looking at the opponent playing majestic there, he really couldn't accept it, so the Dark Elf cavalry commander also raised his spear high, "Proud Duruszi, for the sake of the great God of Killing, Kane, kill these pathetic humans with me!" ”

Although he didn't use any magic, after hearing this, all the dark elf cavalry behind him invariably widened their eyes, clenched the weapons in their hands, and even breathed a little faster, "For the great Kane!" ”
