Chapter 528: Return to Oak Village
In this way, it took two full days for Levi to take care of everything and go back to Oak Village, the things that the watchman had piled up during this time were more and more complicated than he had imagined, and many things were not immediately apparent after he gave the order, and he had to wait for a while.
Before returning to Oak Village, Levi also went to his old nest, Hope Valley, where he built recruiting buildings such as the Medusa Lair and the Herald Squires, and instructed the Evergreen Sword to send men to defend it on a regular basis.
By now, he has an independent Hope Valley, which is no secret to the high-level of the guild, because Levi did not deliberately hide this, with such a long period of development, the defensive strength of the Hope Valley itself is enough to be worthy of the average small guild, plus the dwarven mercenaries from Blackstone Castle and his own little brothers, safety can still be guaranteed to a certain extent.
And in the past two days, he was not surprised to hear the news of the dragon they had encountered on the road that day.
The fiery red dragon, who called himself Marathus, was not reconciled when it suffered its loss, and instead of putting it up with it, it hid in a large wasteland north of the Rick River.
And it doesn't know how to pull up a large number of ragtag armies composed of ogres, greenskins, goblins, and even Skaven rat people, as well as various wild monsters, and the momentum is quite huge, and it has begun to harass the Golden Academy and the surrounding Imperial villages every now and then.
Although the cannon fodder under its command is not strong, and they are basically killed, this also annoys the Golden Academy.
There were fewer people going, and they couldn't beat the obviously strong dragon, and there were more people going, so the cunning dragon couldn't hide, and the Golden Academy killed the group of cannon fodder, but it didn't take long for the fire dragon to pull out a group of younger brothers from nowhere, and launched an attack on the Golden Academy and the surrounding villages again.
So in the end, the highest alchemist of the empire issued a wanted warrant for it, and now it has become a mission, and for a while, most of the aborigines and chosen heroes of the empire are quite shocked, after all, it is a real dragon, which is a very rare creature in the old world.
If Levi hadn't been in a hurry to go back to Oak Village, he would have wanted to join in the fun, but now, he could only comfort himself, it was a dragon, and it looked like a very cunning dragon, it shouldn't have been killed so quickly, and when he was done dealing with the affairs of Oak Village, he would go back to have a good time.
In order to show his best side, Levi also deliberately brought his best subordinates, a thousand cavalry, a hundred infantry mixed with the Great Swordsman and the Fox Sword Master, and three hundred elite archers carried by the Tyranic Rock chariot.
Next is the infantry units and ranged units recruited by Levi in the imperial capital and Blackstone Fort, a total of about 500 people, they are not the main force that Levi used to fight, but are ready to be brought to Oak Village with some of the war equipment he bought in Blackstone Fort, he is going back to inherit Oak Village this time, so for his own territory, of course he has to keep more defensive troops.
Then there was Medusa and many hero-level subordinates, and finally there were a dozen horned eagle beasts led by Levi himself and the Flame Feather Winged Man led by Flame Blade, after the construction of Hope Valley was completed, Levi recruited them as soon as possible, and now he can be regarded as a regular air force.
As he said before, maybe the combat power of the Yan Feather Wings people is not particularly high, but the number of them available for recruitment is quite a lot, and the most important thing is that their appearance is quite good, although they are not as good as elves, but they are also handsome men and women.
Coupled with the pair of fiery red wings behind him, and the small skills that can use flame enchantment for himself during battle, in terms of appearance alone, it is quite good, and it is definitely the best choice for the honor guard.
Of course, this is not all Levi's belongings, but the biggest characteristic of these troops is that they are outstanding enough, and Levi wants to show a glamorous first impression to the people of Oak Village.
But when they stopped in Darklight Village for a short time, and then approached Oak Village, looking at the flames of war burning in the distance, Levi knew that his plan might be temporarily frustrated, because he happened to encounter a battle, and Oak Village was actually being attacked by the forces of the Tomb King!
Levi quickly scanned the entire battlefield, and then he found that although this army of the Tomb King was numerous, its strength was not strong, and it was even a little weak!
More than 2,000 skeleton warriors and mummified Nehekhara warriors, three or four hundred skeleton archers, more than 200 skeleton cavalry, these are all cannon fodder, and the biggest role is to make up the numbers. There are more than thirty skeleton chariots, and the Tier 3 elite are a bit of a threat to novices, but their true strength is just like that.
As the leader, a mummy is holding a halberd and riding a giant cobra more than ten meters long, and there are two teams with similar cobra mounts around him, but the desert cobra rider who is a few sizes smaller seems to exist as a personal guard.
In addition, there are some second-order rotten vultures flying in the sky, but except for those desert cobra knights, the other troops look very weak, especially those infantry, there are not even a few third-order ones, is this the so-called Tomb King's wrath? It doesn't look good!
The only thing to be said about is probably these unique cobra mounts, which are not real cobras, but rather constructs, with a tabletop platform extending from each side of their necks for the knight on their backs, and looking much smoother than a normal warhorse.
These desert cobra knights also start at the 4th level, and there are many elite units among them, which can be regarded as a small threat.
However, the defense of Oak Village is not weak, not only because of the large number of ballistae and trebuchets on their newly reinforced walls, but also because there are many Chosen Heroes here to help in the battle.
For well-known reasons, with the exception of a limited number of races such as the Greenskins and Beastmen, most of the Chosen Heroes are not weak in range, and the same is true for the Chosen Heroes here in Oak Village.
It seems that even if Levi and them don't make a move, this Tomb King's army will definitely not be able to capture Oak Village, and it won't even take long, when these skeleton soldiers and Nehekhara warriors who are armed with spears and halberds and have a restraint effect on cavalry units outside are dead, I'm afraid that Oak Village will come out to fight back!
This is the kingdom of Bretonnia, which was founded on knights, and their most outstanding class is of course cavalry!
Levi couldn't help but feel a little melancholy for a while, he originally wanted to show off and be majestic, but now it seems that there is no chance, they are all busy fighting, and no one in Oak Village has come to see them.
So he directly ordered the troops to speed up and advance, ready to give the other party a fatal blow from behind, and after getting rid of these guys, he could hurry up and meet the Holy Maiden of Hilda, after handing in the task, Oak Village is his own, and now any loss caused by the Tomb King to Oak Village is actually a loss to himself, which is not good!
But before Levi could charge, riding the horned eagle beast, he suddenly found that the oak village was flying with smoke and dust for a while, and then a series of giant monsters that looked quite familiar actually emerged directly from the ground, and then a large group of large insects more than one meter long also swarmed out, launching a fierce attack on those chosen heroes who helped in the battle, it was the tomb giant scorpion and the tomb scarab!
In the face of these sudden enemies, the surrounding Chosen Heroes were instantly beaten to the point of crying wolf.
Being able to stay in the vicinity of Oak Village to develop shows that most of them are novices, and their own strength is not strong, but they just rely on their geographical advantages to defend, and by the way, they just mix up experience points, and their actual combat effectiveness may not be as good as the aborigines of Oak Village.
In addition, the tomb giant scorpions also seemed to have deliberately chosen the location where they appeared, and the place where they drilled out happened to be the place where they had the most long-range units, which made matters worse, almost in just a dozen seconds, the underground commando team led by the 5th-order tomb giant scorpion killed at least hundreds of troops, and even affected the troops in charge of defense in front.
The crushing slaughter ability of high-level troops against low-level troops was undoubtedly revealed for a while!
Leviston laughed, he just thought there was no chance, but now the other party has created a chance for him to shine!
He immediately ordered, "Everyone take their positions and prepare to attack, and I will lead David, Flame Blade, and the rest of the Flame Wingers to lead the charge!" ”
A series of echoes rang out quickly, and everyone entered the battle mode, Levi has always put his subordinates in charge of different troops, so that he is more convenient to command, and he can quickly find the corresponding commander in the battle.
On the other side, the captain of the garrison of Oak Village, Cam, was shouting loudly, directing his troops, trying to contain the enemy who suddenly appeared in the village, but his orders were not carried out well.
In addition to the fact that the enemy's strength is too strong, the more important thing is that those attacked Chosen Heroes are like a swarm of headless flies, only knowing how to run around, dodging the enemy's attacks, for fear that they will become the next target.
As everyone knows, in the case of a clear gap in the strength of the enemy and us, the weaker side must unite and form a close formation, first protect itself, and then try to gain local superiority, and even counterattack.
But looking at the Chosen Heroes who were still running around and didn't listen to the command, Captain Cam couldn't help but feel a little melancholy for a while, these new Chosen Heroes were not only not strong in their own strength, but also disobedient, which was really a bit difficult to do!
Speaking of which, there have been some nice people in Oak Village, the most prominent of which is Levi, who kidnapped Huames and Mina successively, and if he had stayed here, this would certainly not have happened.
It's a pity, the resources of Oak Village can't satisfy such a genius after all, and I don't know how he's mixed now, but a few days ago, the saint also mentioned the other party's name, and her expression was full of admiration, it should be a good mix, after all, the saint has magic, she can probably see the other party's current situation...
Just when Captain Cam was slightly distracted, he suddenly heard the whistling wind, and then a thunderous shout came from mid-air, "I'm Levi, the expeditionary knight, for the goddess, charge!" ”
With this shout, the shadows instantly spread, covering a large area of the sky, and at the same time, there was a slight vibration sound on the ground, and the battle-hardened captain Cam immediately recognized that this was the movement of the cavalry charge, and it seemed that there were quite a few of them, at least thousands!
Captain Cam raised his head in surprise, and the next moment, even if he had traveled from south to north, experienced many battles, and even served as a mid-level officer in the Empire, he couldn't help but open his mouth wide and couldn't close it anymore.
Because the fierce beast that fluttered its wings in the sky was the mount that many high-ranking knights of the Kingdom of Bretonnia, and even the lords of various places were eager to get, the Horned Eagle Beast, and there was more than one, more than a dozen!
Behind them were hundreds of winged warriors. And the first knight who held a heavy halberd several meters long, shrouded in white-gold flames, and seemed to have boundless power and great power, was not Levi who he had just talked about?!
