As soon as the battle began, it directly entered an extremely fierce stage, and the depths of the forest were like a portal to another dimension, and a steady stream of beastmen rushed out of it, howling and attacking Levi and them, and at the same time, the beastmen who were originally fighting with those humans in the distance also began to move, and attacked Levi's side together.

Although they began to fall in pieces like harvested wheat under the fire of the dwarven artillery and a large number of ranged units under the command of Sienna, these brainless beasts did not waver in the slightest, but rushed forward more and more bravely, as if they had completely lost their fear, and showed a completely different will to fight from the cannon fodder beastmen that Levi had encountered before.

However, Davi on the other side achieved good results, and the air force led by him and Flame Blade quickly crushed the Harpy army head-on, and those fragile monsters could not withstand the fire of the dwarven helicopter, let alone the more powerful Hippogriff.

They don't even need their claws, often the horned eagle beasts just swooped, and the powerful impact force they carried by themselves directly scattered the hordes of harpies, and all the harpies who dared to stop the path of the horned eagle beasts turned into flesh and blood blurred fragments, and the horned eagle beasts flapped their wings casually twice, and those remnant harpies were blown to pieces, and they couldn't form any decent formation at all, and they would only be wantonly slaughtered by the griffons and dwarven helicopters that followed them.

The only ones who have resistance are those vicious manticores, different from ordinary manticores, the guys who appear this time seem to be some mutant species, not only are they larger, but they also have two sharp fangs sticking out of their mouths like saber-toothed tigers, which don't look easy to mess with.

But I don't know if it's because this mutation affects their brains or bodies, they are bulky when flying in mid-air, and they are slightly inferior to the Hippogriff in terms of physique, and more importantly, they are just brainless beasts, while the Hippogriff has Davey and Flame Blade on their backs, which is already doomed to their failure!

On the other side, Orfini also commanded the Shadow Leopard Group to meet the centaurs, while Mina and Zhou Jin and other mage units were busy digging holes, and there was still some time before the knights on both sides arrived, and they had to create as many huge traps as possible.

After arranging all this, Levi relaxed a little, since the Northern Eagle arranged this targeted ambush here, let himself smash his minions first, and then kill him himself!

"Boss, something is wrong."

I don't know how many times Levi has heard this word today, but his mentality is still very calm, since the battle is inevitable, it is better to actively face it.

"What's wrong, Lone Star?"

"Boss, those guys still seem to be fighting the beastmen or something, have they faked fights instead of real fights?"

Sky Lone Star pointed to a corner of the battlefield, those guys from the empire didn't take the opportunity to attack Levi together, but were still fighting and retreating with those beastmen, this is not the same as their analysis just now?

Levi narrowed his eyes, and he couldn't figure out what was going on with the other party for a while.

The cavalry who had just tried to rush over and communicate with them were instantly overwhelmed by the beastmen pouring out of the forest before they could give the order to attack, but in any case, this was a trap for themselves, there was no doubt about it!

"Don't worry about them, no matter what, with their strength, they can't affect the current battle situation, let's deal with these beastmen and Tzeentch demons first!"

"Okay, boss, I see!"

Sky Lone Star immediately responded very happily, and then picked up a war hammer in one hand, carried his shield-like book in the other, and rushed forward with some bear monsters and bald brothers from the Imperial Sigma Sect, shouting loudly, more and more beasts have approached the battlefield, and he has to lead his troops to participate in the battle himself.

The tide of beastmen soon slammed into the front of Levi's army, splashing green and red waves, and all kinds of Tzeentch fire demons also spewed brilliant flames, taking advantage of the situation to sneak attack in the rear.

At the same time, a group of Tzeentch mages who stepped on the frisbee and let out all kinds of strange laughs and screams from time to time flew in the air, and all kinds of chaotic magic splits that even Levi couldn't recognize smashed in the face, and those Tzeentch screamers who were on fire and like giant batfish also flew while opening their big mouths and spitting flames downward, even completely ignoring the beastmen in the melee.

Even though Levi had been asking Sienna to carry out targeted sniping and try not to let these flying demons get close to him, he didn't expect these demons to be so extreme, they didn't seem to think of the beastmen as allies at all, but more like some tools that could be used, as long as they could kill a dwarven warrior, they would rather have ten times more beastmen as a burial!

In the face of such an attack, even the dwarven warriors with relatively high magic resistance began to be frequently injured or even killed for a while, even if Levi had a lot of treasures that increased the magic resistance of the troops, it could not prevent their whiskers from deforming and even burning directly under the high temperature, but as the Poseidon Knight Werner continued to use his battle skills, the casualty rate began to slow down at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Levi immediately commanded the dwarven helicopter and began to turn back, it seems that even if the number is small, these demons should not be taken lightly, and the protective flames of these Tzeentch mages and Tzeentch screamers seem to be a little too powerful, the ranged troops under Sienna's command have not been able to achieve the intended interception goal, they are rapidly approaching, and even threaten the vulnerable ranged units!

Sienna immediately anxiously commanded the ranged troops to attack again, and she even took the initiative to use her battle skill Arrow Storm, but ordinary arrows and bullets often failed to hit their bodies, and most of their power was already weakened by their protective flames, and when the rest fell on them, the damage they could do was very limited.

Leaviston was also a little anxious to summon a bunch of soul tremors, wanting to let them take on the shield as much as possible and protect the long-range units, but how much effect it could play, he was really a little bottomless in his heart, and he couldn't help but feel a little secretly hateful, but unfortunately he hadn't seen any artillery that could attack the air force at the moment, otherwise he must let these guys taste it!

At the critical moment, there was a faint crackling explosion in the air, and then a shining silver electric dragon appeared in mid-air, directly hitting the body of a Tzeentch screamer, and barely stopped, it quickly jumped into the body of another Tzeentch demon, then the third, the fourth...

In less than two seconds, this silver electric dragon has connected dozens of large and small demons, and even the retina of Levi, who was staring at it, felt slightly burning for a while, and there was even a silver electric current in the air, which was the residual power of magic.

In the face of such a powerful attack, the seven or eight demons didn't know if they had already suffered damage, or if the power of this magic was indeed too powerful, their bodies exploded directly in mid-air, scattering like fireworks, these demons were not full of blood like ordinary creatures after death.

The hapless Tzeentch Screamer seemed to be paralyzed all over its body, its wings no longer flapped, and its thousand-pound body immediately fell straight from the air, splashing large clouds of rubble and smoke, and the dwarven warriors who fell to the ground immediately swarmed up, and within seconds they used their tomahawks to divide its corpse.

The Tzeentch demons who were originally screaming and attacking were also stunned for a while, and seemed to be shocked and even afraid of this powerful magic, and several Tzeentch mages turned around and began to flee directly, and the higher intelligence level made them have the emotion of fear.

After such a delay, teams of dwarven helicopters had arrived in time, and a large amount of ammunition poured out as if they didn't want money, even these Tzeentch demons couldn't withstand such a ferocious attack, and they were defeated and retreated for a while, and the crisis was finally temporarily lifted.

Levi quickly turned around, and sure enough, a pale Mina was leaning softly on the body of a Goddess of Mercy priest, there was still a faint trace of electric light between her hands and staff, and the attack just now was obviously sent by her, it was the latest battlefield magic she had comprehended, a chain of lightning with powerful destructive power!

It's just that I don't know if it's because I just realized it, so I can't master it proficiently, or because of the urgency of the incident, she forcibly overdrew her magic power, in short, she looks a little weak now.

Nodding to the priestess and motioning for Mina to take care of her, Levi regrouped his new defensive line again, not forgetting to greet another powerful mage beside him, even though he wasn't good at offensive magic.

"Orfini, have you taken care of those centaurs?"

"Right now, there's about four squads, oh my God, these centaurs are really alive."

Orfini casually responded to Levi as she continued to manipulate the Shadow Panthers to slaughter the centaurs.

Although the real strength of these centaurs is not too strong, as natural cavalry, they are very fast and very agile, even elite cavalry units are difficult to quickly clear them, so this task can only be handed over to Orfini, her Shadow Leopard is the natural nemesis of these centaurs, because they are faster and stronger.

Levi nodded, "Okay, get them as soon as possible, and then support other places, we must get rid of these air units first." ”

In fact, up to now, although the battle seemed to be a little critical, Levi had not mobilized all his forces, and the cavalry troops led by Huames and Tanato had not yet been dispatched.

However, he still didn't want to use them, because he had to guard against those human cavalry coming from both sides, and he wouldn't be naïve enough to think that with the trap pit dug by the tomb giant scorpion, he could really intercept them perfectly, and he had to leave a means of countermeasures.

And the small group of Imperial troops in the distance who were still entangled with the beastmen also made Levi have to put some energy on guard.

As the battle continued, the battle finally entered the rhythm that Levi was familiar with, and the army of beastmen was finally stopped, and they began to be quickly reaped by the war machines and ranged troops commanded by Orfini, and when they crossed the bullet and came to the melee troops, they had to face the fierce dwarves who had been preparing for a long time, and these warriors made of steel made them hit their heads and bleed, but there was little decent progress.

When the two barbarian giants joined the battlefield, Levi also ordered Zhou Jin to lead a part of the tomb giant scorpion to intercept it, while Mina, who had recovered a little, re-commanded the remaining tomb giant scorpions and continued to dig traps on both sides.

After killing all the centaurs, Ophine, who had her hands free, began to summon some souls with spears in hand, and arranged them on both sides, and the strength of thousands of cavalry made everyone dare not despise them in the slightest.

Although Hua Meisi and the others, who had not participated in the battle and were just waiting for Levi's order, were anxious, they could not do anything, because she and Tanato both knew that even if their cavalry troops participated in the battle now, their strength would not be enough to completely establish victory, but on the contrary, once they played wrong, it could directly lead to the defeat of the entire battle.

So no matter how anxious and angry they were, they could only endure it and wait for the order from Levi!

But at this moment, there was a news that surprised Levi, "My lord, the cavalry troops on both sides have all stopped. ”

"Stopped? How far is it from here? Levi looked twice, but he didn't see anything, at least not the guys in his sight.

"At least all of them were more than five kilometers, and they stopped directly there, and it seemed that there was no intention of attacking for the time being." Although Touching Fish is nominally a cavalry in charge of reconnaissance, Levi still allocates some flying units to him, so the accuracy of the intelligence is still very high.

"Five kilometers? If the cavalry had galloped at full strength, they would have been able to reach the battlefield in about ten minutes, but now they were stuck outside the battlefield. Do they want to wait for our strength to be almost consumed, and then they will personally go into battle to decide the final victory? Or did they find out about our trap? ”

Ordinary war horses are enough to cross a distance of one kilometer in one minute when charging, but if it is a knight who carries a fully armed knight, this speed will be more than half of it, after all, the armor weapon plus the knight himself, often has a weight of more than two hundred or even three hundred catties, ordinary movement is fine, but in the process of galloping at full strength, this burden is too heavy for the war horses, if it is full galloping, I am afraid that it will not take five minutes for them to die directly!

That's why the elven horses and the special mounts of the griffin and the horned eagle are so popular, and with their strong physique, they are far superior to ordinary warhorses in terms of carrying capacity and speed, and they are also better able to take on the task of charging.

But in the face of Levi's questions, Touching Fish could only shake his head again and again, saying that he didn't know anything at all.

Although he felt that his combat effectiveness was excellent, and he was not bad at commanding long-range cavalry to fly the enemy's kites, it would be too difficult for him to analyze the enemy's psychology and judge the strategy and tactics adopted by the opponent.

Seeing this picture of touching the fish, Levi couldn't help but sigh a little, there are still too few subordinates available, but it's a pity that his subordinates who are better at braining, such as Qingquan Liuxiang, Evergreen Sword and Military Division, all have their own tasks, and they are all working hard for the development and growth of the watcher, otherwise if you bring them, you can save a lot of effort.

"Okay, I know, you continue to be on guard, if the other party has any movement, notify me as soon as possible."

Touching the fish left quickly, but Levi frowned and thought, "Ten minutes, ten minutes, what can I do?" ”

But no matter what he thought, he couldn't come up with a sound and perfect plan.

Although the average strength of the Beastmen is not strong, there are also high-level troops such as the Savage Giants and Tzeentch Screamers, and even if they are dispatched, it is impossible to achieve victory so quickly.

And it seems that these beastmen are driven by the Tzeentch demons, they are just some cannon fodder troops used as consumables, if you don't solve the main messenger hidden behind, I'm afraid it will be useless to kill more beastmen, Levi can't help but fall into a stalemate, and he doesn't have enough information in this kind of battle where his strength is at a disadvantage, which really makes him a little headache.

"Boss, that group of Imperial troops has sent people over again, do you want to kill them, or let them come?" The little brother's voice came from the side, temporarily interrupting Levi's thoughts.

"Again?"

Levi glanced into the distance, and then he found that compared to the beginning, the size of the army from the empire had been reduced by almost half, it seemed that Levi had misunderstood them at the beginning, if it was a bitter meat trick, they would not have to pay such a price, until now, these guys may be pure bad luck, unlucky enough to break the trap originally reserved for themselves, so the beasts will attack them.

As for why those Tzeentch demons didn't use all their strength before, this made Levi can't help but have a not very good idea.

Perhaps, the commander of the other party is a demon with a high level of intelligence, so it will even use this kind of thing to fake fighting, if he was not so careful at the time, I am afraid that he will directly step into the trap of the other party, and then the beastmen in the forest will pour out, plus the cavalry troops on both sides, he is really more than lucky!

But now I haven't been able to completely fall into the trap, and the unfortunate ones are those troops from the Empire, after the official attack and no longer fake the fight, their losses are not light at all.

Well, that's not necessarily true, but if the other party is a human believer who is in command and a demon, it makes perfect sense to have such intelligence. But Levi had already seen the beastmen blessed by terror and slaanesh, and he hadn't seen what a beastman or a human would look like when he was blessed by Tzeentch...

"Let them in and see what they have to say."

After being let in, a cavalryman in golden-red armor led by him gave Levi a military salute with a "snap", "Hello, respected Chosen Heroes, we are soldiers from the Third War Regiment under the command of Lord Helberg, and we were ordered to go to the Corrupt Forest to crusade against demon believers, but I didn't expect to encounter an ambush by demons and beastmen here, and the leader of our war group, Viscount Azig, hopes to get your assistance to fight against the evil enemy together!" ”

is not humble or arrogant, and is very polite, the other party's first insidious to Levi is very good, and from the other party's dazzling armor, Levi also judged that the other party should be a relatively rare special class, a Flame Sun Knight, like Reinhardt's Goshawk Knights, is also a religious knight who believes in the female god of war.

They have the ability to attach flame enchantment to their weapons, and their resistance to fire attacks is far beyond that of mortals, but when facing Tzeentch demons, their attacks are very pale and powerless, as Tzeentch demons from the Chaos Demon Domain, they can control flames themselves, and their resistance to flames is even more extraordinary.

However, Levi's attention was elsewhere, "Hello, knight, I'm Levi, and you said you are a warband under General Heilberg?" So how did you end up here? ”

Although Levi was not often active in the Empire, he still heard of this general, because he was the general of the Emperor's Praetorian Guard, and he was also a popular candidate for the position of marshal, and it was even rumored that he was also known as the strongest swordsman in the Empire, and was a truly famous figure.

It's just that his troops should have been protecting Emperor Karl all day long and protecting the safety of Rick's Territory, how did they come to Nunn, this may cause disputes!

After all, the empire belongs to the electoral system, each province has its own elector boss and its own army, in the case of unreported circumstances, even the emperor cannot casually station the army into the territory of other electors, not to mention that Hellberg is only a general, although he is in charge of the emperor's Praetorian Guard!

"Yes, my lord, we are indeed under the command of Lord Heilberg, but he is no longer a general, he is the new marshal of the Empire! His Majesty the Emperor has reached a cooperation agreement with the Countess, and we will help the Countess clean up the evil enemies within the range of Wisson and Nunn. ”

The Flame Sun Knight quickly answered Levi's question, but he didn't say anything about the most important thing, what price the countess would pay, but directly changed the topic, "Lord Levi, we have just discovered the commander of the other party, and I hope you can help us kill the other party together, I believe that as long as the leader of the other party is killed, the remaining beastmen will become a mess of sand!" ”

As soon as the Flame Sun Knight's words fell, a system prompt popped up in front of Levi and the others, which clearly stated that as long as they completed this task, in addition to being able to harvest a large amount of experience points, prestige, gold and other rewards, they were more likely to receive a special gift from Imperial Marshal Helberg himself!

And with this mission, Levi also completely confirmed the identity and camp of the other party, at least they will definitely not be enemies now.

So Levi didn't think too much about it, and directly agreed, he was worried that he didn't know where the other party's commander was, but as long as he accepted this task, everything would be solved.

"Well, as a citizen of the Empire, I should naturally contribute my strength to the fight against evil, I don't know what to call you, and where is the enemy commander?"

Although the time spent together is very short, the intelligence level of the Flame Sun Knight in front of him is undoubtedly the top, and the other party is definitely not an ordinary person, even if there is no way to poach for the time being, Levi thinks that it will never be wrong to have a good relationship with the other party.

"Thank you very much, Lord Levi, I am Viscount Sharett from Aldolphe, and I am also a mentor of the Knights of the Burning Sun, and as for the leader of the enemy, it is a Tzeentch demon mage, and a fallen witch hunter!"
