Chapter 482: Admiral Hohof's Revenge (Moe Lord Plus 6/10)
The battle ended faster than Levi expected, and it didn't take two minutes, the vampire leader who had been boastful and belittled Levi several times had already been knocked to the ground by Levi, and even the scimitar in his hand was knocked out, and its small musket was directly cut into two pieces by Levi's blow, and it had lost all its ability to resist.
Even as an undead, this vampire couldn't help but show horror on his face at this time, "Wait, please wait, I'm Admiral Hohov's subordinate, you can spare my life and go in exchange for a handsome ransom, the Admiral will definitely be willing to pay the ransom!" ”
At this life-or-death moment, the vampire in front of him found the etiquette it had learned and became much more polite to Levi.
"Oh, Admiral Hokhov? That's a good idea. Levi's halberd stayed in front of the other party's neck, but just as the vampire showed a happy expression, Levi swung it down, "It's a pity I don't know him!" ”
Let's not talk about who Admiral Hokhov is, where he goes to find the other party, and what ransom the other party will come up with, just because the other party is a vampire, Levi is destined to make any compromise with it, these guys are the best at intrigues, and it will definitely find a chance to take revenge after it escapes.
Moreover, the title of Guardian of Order given to him by the lizardmen was not without a price, not to mention that he was also a descendant of Landowin, and while bearing this title, he was already destined to become mortal enemies with the undead!
The vampire's expression suddenly froze, its originally happy eyes instantly turned vicious, and the residual death power in its body barely supported it to open its mouth, "Human, I curse you, even if I am going to die, I still... ”
With its curse, a black light immediately floated to Levi's body, and at the same time, the system's prompt sounded, but Levi didn't check, but directly waved the halberd again, and slashed at the opponent's neck, and the foul blood spurted out instantly, and now it was dead and couldn't die anymore.
When Levi chopped off the chattering vampire's head with a halberd, almost at the same time, Orfini on the other side also used the tomb scorpion to work with Sienna to kill another vampire mage.
The remaining zombie pirates were suddenly strongly affected, their attack and defense and speed and other attributes have been reduced to varying degrees in an instant, and with the passage of time, the degree to which they are affected is also rapidly increasing, and their original strength is not particularly strong, almost all of them have fallen down a class, and they have become more than opponents, but this has greatly accelerated the killing speed of Sienna and them.
While his subordinates were cleaning up the battlefield, Levi made a little inspection and found that due to the outstanding performance of Orfini and Sienna, the losses of the troops were very small, basically at the beginning of the encounter, and later when the vampires used magic, and later when they fought again, there were not many casualties.
Of course, Levi will not be stingy with his praise, and the two girls are in a good mood for a while.
Sienna was because she hadn't personally participated in this kind of battle for a long time, and she thought she would be rusty, but she didn't expect that this time she played at a super level and was praised by Levi, and of course she would be in a good mood.
Ophini is also in a similar situation, when she was in the Amethyst Academy, because she was obsessed with the creation of soul shame, she never specifically learned any offensive spells, even if she was the daughter of the famous cemetery rose, which also brought her a lot of negative effects, but now, she has proved herself with actual combat, although she has not studied specifically, but it does not mean that she does not have talent in this area!
"Speaking of which, why do these zombies use muskets as weapons? Ofini: Do you have any information on this? ”
With the exception of necromancers, high-level vampires who can use magic, and dark corpse-throwing carts that have recently begun to appear more frequently, the undead have few regular ranged units.
Heroic units can certainly use magic, but their troops are basically all warriors, occasionally mixed with some black knights and spirit knights, plus a very small number of space units, which makes it difficult for the undead to have an absolute advantage in numbers when fighting with other races, but they usually have to be prostituted by their opponents, even the beastmen and greenskins have ranged units.
Although this is also a balance between races, the undead Chosen Heroes have never stopped complaining about this on the forums and trying to find a solution, but so far, they have not succeeded.
That's why Levi was so surprised when he first saw the skeleton archer.
However, the skeleton archers were later confirmed to belong to the Tomb King faction, and they all had some residual consciousness in their bodies, which was in a sense equivalent to the heroic spirits of ancient warriors, so they were able to shoot arrows and even ride horses, but now they were trapped in the body of a skeleton.
But this is nothing like the regular undead who are forcibly driven by necromancers with evil magic.
But now, Levi can be 100% sure that these zombie pirates must be undead, but he can't understand at all, how did these zombies learn to pull the trigger? They don't even have brains, huh?
Could it be that the vampire mage gave each zombie a separate order?
But if that vampire was really that powerful, it wouldn't have been killed by Orfini and the others casually, would it?
Levi is very eager to solve this puzzle, because if the undead can promote the creation of this special zombie on a large scale, it will undoubtedly be a huge shock to all races in the entire Old World, and the empire next to Sylvania must be the earliest victim.
Once the natives are in crisis, this may be a pretty good opportunity for the Chosen Heroes, as well as for Levi himself.
Orfini frowned and searched her memories carefully, but in the end she had to shake her head regretfully, "Sorry, Levi, I haven't heard of it. ”
Levi smiled and shook his head, "It's okay, do you have any impressions of the name Admiral Hokhov?" ”
When killing the previous vampire, I don't know if it was the other party's curse, or if it was the reason why they dug up the treasure, the system prompted that he had received a mandatory mission, Admiral Hokhov's revenge.
As the name of the mission suggests, Admiral Hokhov will avenge the two dead vampires, but there is no other information on it other than this sentence, and Levi is completely confused.
"Admiral Hokhov? Levi, are you sure it's the name? Ophini's eyes widened.
As soon as he saw her like this, Levi knew that she definitely knew this guy, so even if they happened to come back with the troops at this time, he couldn't care about it for the time being, because looking at the expressions of Sky Lone Star, he knew that they must have returned victoriously, and it didn't matter if he asked later.
"That's right, Orfini, I'm sure it's him."
Ofini frowned suddenly, "Then this is a little troublesome." Hokhov hails from Rick's Realm, and he was once a well-known admiral in the Imperial Navy, having barely faced an opponent in the Empire, or even in the Old World. ”
Livingston relaxed slightly, "An Admiral from Rick's Territory? That doesn't seem like much, right? ”
As we all know, because of Fort Marien's targeted strategy for the empire, Rick's fleet can't go to sea at all, they can only wander back and forth in the Rick River and the Tarabek River, like this Emperor's Northern Expedition, Rick's fleet arrived in Nord Territory, which can be said to be the first time in a hundred years, of course they can't meet their opponents, because usually around the two rivers are all the Empire's own people!
But the next moment, Orfini's words made the smile on Levi's face disappear.
"No, Levi, don't be careless, he used to be the Admiral of Rick Lord, but not now, he was Admiral Rick Commander when Marienburg was still in the hands of the Empire!"
Livingston stared, Marienburg became independent more than 70 years ago, which means that no matter how talented the Admiral Hokhov is, he became famous at the age of 20, he is at least an old guy in his 90s, right? In this era of war, can human beings really live to such an age?
Seeing Levi's eyes, Orfini also knew the seriousness of what he had understood, so she finally added, "Hohov was the Admiral of the Rick Command two hundred years ago. I once studied his information with my mother, and he was not amazing at first, just an ordinary junior non-commissioned officer in the navy, but after a fall into the water, he returned with strength and wisdom far beyond mortals, and quickly achieved very high results. His mother had studied his information because she suspected that he was related to the Tzeentch Demon, because it was recorded that after he fell into the water, he always had a parrot standing on his shoulder when he returned. ”
Crows and parrots are all birds, and Tzeentch, one of the Chaos Gods, happens to be particularly fond of birds as messengers, and even represents his imprint with an eye inlaid on a pinch of bird feathers.
And Levi has fought his Tzeentch demons several times, all of them are guys with wings and bird heads, and even Tzeentch Arch who ambushed him in the Ice Tower can transform into birds!
Levi rubbed his temples, "So, the enemy we're going to face is going to be an admiral who can control vampires and zombies, and maybe there's a Tzeentch Archdemon by his side?" ”
"That's right," Orfini said with a serious face, "and it's been two hundred years since he last appeared in Rick's Territory, and if a Tzeentch Demon had been crouching on his shoulders and bewitching him all day, I'm afraid he would have become a demon's minions, or a demon altogether." ”
Tzeentch was originally a god of trickery, and of course his Tzeentch demons were also good at all kinds of intrigues and tricks, and it was difficult for mortals to fight them in this regard.
If there is a birdman babbling in your ear all day long, let alone two hundred years, I am afraid that ordinary people will not be able to survive even 2 years, or even 2 months.
Go crazy or become a demon!
