Chapter 130: Encounter with a half-elf

With Levi's order, the backs of the two young thorn-backed lizards shook for a while, and then only heard two swishing sounds, and two iron-gray bone spurs that were difficult to see with the naked eye had already flown out, just hitting the swamp warrior, and at the same time, a white and a blood-red number floated up from the opponent's head, and the swamp warrior, who had already been injured a lot, immediately fell down without saying a word.

Before Levi could praise the young prickly lizard, the leader of the swamp warriors was startled, and it subconsciously let out a series of rapid croaking sounds, issuing orders to his subordinates.

Then it glanced at the two young spinyback lizards with some fear, these creatures reminded it of the demon swamp crocodiles rampant in the swamp, although they were very different in size, but they were comparable in ferocity, and even the two smaller guys in front of them, the bone spurs on their bodies looked even more ferocious than the demon swamp crocodile.

Moreover, these guys look very similar to the enemies who attacked their tribe before, but those terrifying enemies are all humanoid creatures, and these two guys are beasts lying on the ground...

Then Levi saw that the tallest of the Swamp Warriors except for the leader of the Swamp Warriors began to retreat, as if they were about to leave the battle.

Leaviston was in his spirits, and he could finally determine why this village of the Swamp People had become like this, and even the King of the Swamp People had to flee with his own troops and the mysterious stone slabs, while the leader of the Swamp Warrior Warriors still retained relatively intact troops, and he couldn't see any battles on his body, it was because this guy was a coward!

It saw that its troops had fallen into a disadvantage, and was startled by the attack of the two young thornback lizards, it actually wanted to run away directly, this guy shouldn't have run away in the face of the lizardmen before, so he saved so much combat power, right?!

Of course, Levi didn't know that he had inadvertently guessed the truth, but he knew that he could never just let the other party go, and if the enemy was scared and wanted to escape, then he should take advantage of the victory to pursue him.

"The melee troops have pestered the brute swamp man, and the ranged troops are ready to concentrate their fire, targeting the enemy in the middle of the enemy; Young Thornback, you two shoot directly at the leader of the swamp warriors. And, Bloomes, prepare to charge! ”

Previously, due to the terrain here, Huames had not found a suitable opportunity to charge, so he stayed behind and helped direct the battle.

But as the battle progressed, the warring forces on both sides were constantly moving, and a path had been opened for a charge. Although this is a swampy place, not all places are filthy mud pools, there is solid land in between.

Levi didn't let the ranged troops target the Tyranny Swamps, not only because they were entangled with their own melee troops, which was very unfavorable for the targeting and shooting of their ranged troops, but more importantly, Levi wanted to cut the opponent's troops into two areas.

According to Levi's current understanding of the leader of the swamp warriors, in that case, there is a high chance that the other party will not care about the divided subordinates, but will choose to abandon those who are entangled.

As for the two young Thornback Lizards, to be honest, Levi didn't think they could cause much damage to the Swamp Warrior Leader, because the other party's equipment was obviously very elite, but he also didn't miss the Swamp Warrior Leader's frightened look before, which was afraid of the two young Thornback Lizards.

Although Levi couldn't see any expression on the ugly face of the leader of the warriors of the swamps, his big eyes revealed his inner thoughts, and not to mention that it didn't seem to want to hide his fears at all!

With Levi's order, his subordinates immediately changed their methods of fighting, and they no longer focused on attacking or dodging, but more on entangling each other at all costs to prevent them from leaving the battle.

This ferocious style of play made the leader of the swamp warriors even more frightened, and as the rain of arrows fell, the swamp people were quickly separated.

Although the leader of the Swamp ordered his men to retreat, more than a third of the Swamp were eventually entangled and unable to leave the battlefield, including two brutal Swamp Warriors, much to the heartache of the Swamp warrior leader.

Just as it was hesitating to use some of its ordinary subordinates to rescue the two strong brute swamp man, it suddenly heard heavy footsteps from the side, and it quickly turned its head to look over, and then it found that a white beast had rushed over with a splash of mud, and behind it was a knight with a spear!

The leader of the swamp warriors immediately screamed, and he didn't even have time to command his own troops, he turned around and began to run away, and his subordinates seemed to be used to its appearance, except for those who were still entangled, the other swamp people all ran after it, and Levi was stunned, these guys seemed to be some habitual offenders!

However, after being stunned for a while, Levi did not forget to continue to command his subordinates to carry out the encirclement, first solve the remaining swamp dragons, and then consider the problem of pursuit, what eats in his mouth is his own.

Anyway, given the size of the swamps, unless they all burrow into the swamp, they will always leave some clues to search for, and based on what Levi knows about the leader of the swamps, Levi probably won't do that, as Levi doesn't see any stains or mud spots on its shiny armor.

Levi's subordinates quickly surrounded the remaining Swamp Snakes, and now they couldn't do it even if they fled, these demoralized, abandoned by the leader and his companions, were quickly and completely killed, even the two extraordinarily powerful Brug Warriors, in the face of the Moorish knight Tanato, and Bloomus, failed to make any waves.

Levi also put away his spear with a slight gasp.

Although he is the leader of this small army, now that he has become a Bretonnian knight, it is natural for him to engage in melee combat, but he is busy commanding, and there are not many opportunities to fight in person, but now his combat skills are much stronger than at the beginning.

He was already very smart, not to mention that he had more skilled companions like Wallace and Moorish Knight Tanato, and there were always plenty of opportunities to learn.

After a short rest, Levi decided to continue the pursuit with his troops, the leader of the swamp people was so luxuriously equipped, after killing it, the benefits would definitely be indispensable.

Following the traces left by the swamp people, Levi and the others didn't spend too much time tracking the traces left by the other party, but Levi and the others never caught up with each other.

Even before Levi wondered if he and the others were about to cross the Sweetwater Swamp, they finally found the figures of the swamp people who fled in the battlefield, and he still underestimated those swamp people a little, although their combat effectiveness was not strong, but their escape speed in the swamp was really not slow at all.

It was only after seeing the situation clearly that Levi understood that the reason why he and the others successfully caught up with them was not because they had slackened, but because their escape process was not smooth, and some humanoid creatures with little difference in appearance from humans, but with slightly pointed ears and slightly longer ears, had stopped them.

No, to be more precise, the Swamp people also stopped the other, they were besieging the enemy at the moment.

Some humanoids in rudimentary leather armor are struggling to resist the attack of the Swamp Dragons, but their number is less than half that of the Swamp Dragons, and their strength is generally not much stronger than the Swamp Dragons.

If it weren't for the warrior who appeared to be the leader, armed with a sword and shield, and the leader of the Swamp Warriors, and the only surviving Brug Swamp Warrior under his command, they would not have been able to defeat the Swamp Warriors.

"My lord, it seems to be half-elves."

The Moorish knight Tanato, quickly made his own judgment, but even with his usual calmness, he couldn't help but be a little surprised by the appearance of these half-elves, he didn't expect that in this inconspicuous swamp, he would encounter two rare races in succession today.

Levi nodded, indicating that he understood.

In fact, he probably knew more about these half-elves than the Moorish knight Tanato, because the half-elves were also in the Order faction, one of the initial optional races of the natural line, and there was a lot of information about them on the forums.

Half-elves are basically a mix of humans and elves according to their backgrounds, except for slightly pointed ears that are slightly longer and longer, their body shape and appearance are basically the same as humans, but they are more handsome.

But the position of the half-elves in the old world is awkward, because to humans, the half-elves look like elves; To elves, half-elves look like humans.

The elves consider the half-elves to be half-bloods and impure, so they refuse to accept them, and reject them even more than humans.

What's more, according to Levi's intelligence, in addition to the great forest of Athel Loren in the Bretonnian Knight Kingdom, there are now an unknown number of wood elves, that is, there are some garrisons of high elves in Fort Marien, the largest and most prosperous trading port in the Old World.

In addition, there don't seem to be many elves in the entire old world, and those players who choose wood elves have basically their novice villages in the Great Forest of Aethel Loren.

In addition to being relatively superior to humans, relatively outstanding agility, and relatively high magic affinity, half-elves will never get more benefits from their elven bloodline.

Humans also consider half-elves to be half-bloods, and they are jealous of their lifespan and their appearance that are better than normal humans.

A normal elf can easily live for more than a thousand years, and unless he is old enough to the point of dying, his face will not show any signs of special aging.

Although the half-elves do not have as long a lifespan as pure elves because the elven bloodline in their bodies is not so pure, it is not too much of a problem to live for two or three hundred years.

In contrast, ordinary humans can basically only live for sixty or seventy years, which of course arouses strong human jealousy.

In addition, the frequency of handsome guys and beauties among the half-elves is much higher than that of ordinary humans, so in the richest countries of mankind, in many large cities and trading ports, there are always some dark trades that will accompany the half-elves, whether they are men or women, there are always suitable buyers, and this situation occurs most frequently in the human empire.

It's not that humans in other countries don't like handsome half-elves, it's just that the price of half-elf slaves is very high, and most humans can't afford this price, and the empire that is in the middle of the old world, the most powerful, and occupies a series of the most fertile regions, has the greatest purchasing power, and they can also afford higher prices.

For example, most of the knights of the Bretonnian Knight Kingdom have to worry about the maintenance of their armor and weapons and the maintenance of their precious mounts all day long, and they simply don't have the funds to buy half-elf slaves.

And the knights who can buy half-elf slaves are usually some high-ranking knights. But based on the complicated laws of the knightly kingdom and the knightly creed they adhere to, knights who can afford to buy half-elf slaves usually don't have this interest, they are either busy honing their martial arts, or they are busy following the instructions of the goddess and seeking the gifts of the goddess, which is much more fun than slaves.

And other human kingdoms, such as Kislev, the ice and snow country in the north of the empire, are not only poorer than the knight kingdom, but also have a harsher environment, and there are more enemies around, even if they have the heart, they are powerless, and it is not easy for ordinary people to live.

However, many city-states in the south also have this financial resources, but most of them are not interested in this anymore, because for the same price, they have a better choice, you must know that there are not only human beings in the city-states, there are also greenskins, goblins, undead, halflings, and even ogres...

I don't know when this kind of thing started, but it can be expected that there will never be an end to it, and the people who hurt the half-elves are basically humans, half of their kind, which has to be said to be a sadness.

So now the number of half-elves is constantly decreasing, and because of frequent reproduction with humans, or with other half-elves, the content of elven blood in their bodies is constantly decreasing, and their talents are also constantly weakening.

Now, as far as Levi knew, the Half-Elves were not even as good in the Old World as the Halflings. Although the halflings are extremely weak in their own right, they have now become an empire and have their own independent city, Mut, relying on their cooking skills and thigh-hugging skills.

But the half-elves are not only quite scarce in number, but also scattered throughout the Old World, and they do not have any independent cities of their own, and their strength is also very weak.

And in order to avoid being captured and sold by other races (usually humans), they usually live in very remote places, and it can be said that they are very miserable, and now they are basically the second most dissuaded race after the halflings.

After a few glances, Levi issued an order to the Moorish knights beside him: "Take the warriors with you, Tanato, these half-elves are almost overwhelmed." ”

Although the half-elves put up a fairly heroic resistance, not only were they less than half as numerous as the Swamps, but they were also mostly brittle-skinned troops, either crossbowmen armed with short crossbows or short swords, looking like thieves or something.

In the face of the attack of the swamp people, they rely more on their own agility, constantly dodge, and wait for the opportunity to launch a counterattack, but because their individual combat effectiveness is not much different from the swamp people, so in the face of a larger number of swamp people, they are fighting and retreating, and it is estimated that it will not take much time to completely defeat.

"Yes, sir." The Moorish knight Tanato, in a deep voice, then raised the giant scythe in his hand and rushed forward first, but there was another person next to him, who was already impatient.

"Levi?" Hua Meisi looked at Levi expectantly, and Xiaobai under her crotch also roared in response.

Without saying anything else, Levi understood what the other party meant, so he smiled and nodded: "Go, Huames, stay safe, and if possible, try to lure that marshman warrior leader away from the other marshmen." ”

He had already noticed that Hua Meisi was already a little impatient, but because he had not issued an order to her, she had been patient, and now it was her turn to appear, as long as she led away the leader of the swamp warriors who seemed to be very resistant to beating, these ordinary swamp people who had lost their command were believed to be completely wiped out by his subordinates soon.

Hua Meisi immediately cheered and picked up his spear: "I know, Levi, come on, Xiaobai!" ”

Xiaobai immediately let out a low roar again, and ran hard, probably because this place was close to the outer area of the Sweetwater Swamp, so there were basically not many swamps here, but a large area of solid land, and it could finally run with confidence, without worrying about whether there would be those smelly mud and covered with its own beautiful fur.
