Long Live the Call of Heroes

Chapter 17 New Magic at Level 2

In addition to the piglets, there are some tattered things in the cave, such as kobold gold mines and candles, but generally speaking, they are not very useful, and they can only be sold for money.

It's just that Li Wei always felt that the way Donna looked at the little pig didn't seem to be looking at a subordinate or a war beast at all, but more like looking at food.

Li Wei secretly speculated, could it be that she had been thinking about whether to roast it or stew it fragrant?

After leaving the cave, they continued to sweep the surrounding kobolds, goblins and other wild beasts.

Thanks to the halfling thief Sam's reconnaissance, they can find the enemy in advance every time, and have the experience of several previous battles, as well as the strong support of Amazon Donna, so although the team is small, the next battle will be more and more. easy.

Ordinary groups of goblins or kobolds are often killed by them before they get close. In addition, there are Li Wei's summoning elements as cannon fodder. In fact, not many enemies can attack them.

At the same time, the continuous fighting also made them gradually realize that the kobolds were indeed losing their troops, and the hobgoblins were indeed haunting various goblin groups. Li Wei felt that it was necessary to report this to the village, and maybe they could get some quest rewards. of.

In the process of constantly searching for enemies and fighting, Li Wei also discovered another skill of Donna, that is, she can find herbs in the wild.

According to her, in addition to hunting and taming animals, Amazons are usually very good at using herbs. After all, after being injured in battle, they can't all go to the priests for treatment, can they?
It's just that her skills in this area are not particularly good, and she doesn't have any tools at hand, so the direct performance is that the simple herbal medicine processed by her is not ideal, that is, it can't restore health, and it can't be used in battle.

Only in the non-combat state, you can apply them on the wound and rest for a few minutes can remove some lower-level poisoning or bleeding effects, and restore a little bit of poor health.

Of course, according to what she said, if she went back to the village and bought some professional equipment such as spatulas and gauze, she could also make some simple bandages, and the effect would be slightly better.

But Li Wei is also very satisfied. After all, he just treated the opponent as a thug at the beginning, and now he can tame animals and find herbs. These are completely free skills!

As their cooperation became more tacit and their efficiency improved, Li Wei quickly rose to level 2 and obtained the random magic list again.

"Level 0 magic: Repair minor injuries, increase resistance, frost ray, detect poison, strike undead;
Tier 1 magic: Chilling Touch, Oil on the soles of the feet, Endure Elemental Damage. "

Compared with last time, there is one less level 0 magic, and one more level 1 magic. I don't know if this is a coincidence, or because the level of optional magic will change with his level, but the total is still 1.

Directly ignore the offensive magic of Freezing Touch, low-level mages have limited mana value and low intelligence, and the cost performance of choosing offensive magic is too low.

It is also a level 1 magic, a summon element can kill five goblins without panting, can a freezing touch do it?

After a little hesitation, he finally chose to rub the soles of his feet with oil, which is also an auxiliary magic. Rather than being beaten, he would rather choose not to be attacked.

It's a pity that these free spells are too random. If he could choose, he would prefer to get other summoning spells.

In this way, he can temporarily use these free cannon fodder to replace melee troops, and then allocate more resources to long-range troops, which can further accelerate his growth rate and combat efficiency.

Oil on the soles of the feet, level 1, active skill, consumes 8 mana points, increases the movement speed of you or others by 3, the duration is based on intelligence, and increases by 1 minute for every 1 point.

He tried it and found that the effect of this magic was unexpectedly good.

Based on his current agility, the normal walking speed is about 5, and the running speed is about 10, but his body is limited and cannot last for a long time. After converting it with the real world moving speed, about 5 is 5 kilometers per hour, which is the level of ordinary people. .

After using the magic, it immediately increased by 3, and both items increased by 3. He can easily distance himself from those humanoid mobs such as goblins and kobolds.

If it is used on Sam, who is already very fast, he can better scout and attract monsters.

Of course, in the face of wild dogs, wild wolves and the like, this speed bonus is not enough. Their sprint speed in a short distance can often easily reach twenty or thirty.

After killing another group of goblins, he managed to harvest the fifth castanets, and now he's a little more interested in this task.

Because this thing is distributed in a very wide range, from goblin swarms to kobold lairs, to the stomachs of wild dogs and the webs of giant jungle spiders, it can be found almost everywhere, as if it was deliberately thrown around.

If it hadn't been littered, then its original owner had suffered a bit, because his body fragments may have been in and out of the belly of different beasts and alien races many times.

After another battle with a bunch of giant piranhas, Li Wei found that the arrow reserve was less than [-]%, and several of his subordinates were obviously exhausted physically and mentally.

Except for Donna who was still doing well, everyone else had a tired look on their faces, especially the halfling thief Sam.

Although he basically doesn't need to participate in battles, he is already quite tired every time he runs back and forth for reconnaissance.

So he decided to return, deal with the spoils in hand first, and then try to recruit a few more subordinates, so that the next battle can be more efficient.

Moreover, he is not satisfied with hunting kobolds and other enemies anymore, it is not that he is tired of it. As the God's Chosen hero who likes to swipe, he has experienced many well-known or unknown games anyway, and he has been trained. A fair amount of patience.

The main reason is that except for the hobgoblins who still have some money, leather armor, and spears, the other enemies are too poor. Although those kobold gold mines can also be exchanged for some money, they have no other available equipment.

He felt that it was necessary to change the battlefield. When he suffered heavy losses before, he was chased by various enemies all the way, but it was also a blessing in disguise, and he knew the places where many monsters gathered.

For example, the crocodiles by the river look very clumsy and easy to bully. There is a camp somewhere in the wild, and a circle of bearded men with long knives are resting there. They look like robbers. Kill them They should be able to produce some equipment.

There are so many things, and he has at least four or five good options.

Of course, other people will not have any objections, after all, they are just taking money to sell their lives.

Amazon even said that she really needs to go back, because with the constant battle, she seems to have recovered some lost memories and needs to find a quiet place to collect her thoughts.

In short, she wanted to rest too.

After hearing this, Li Wei couldn't help shrugging his shoulders. Perhaps this is the biggest difference between mercenaries and subordinates recruited by him, that is, the degree of obedience and the degree of freedom are different.

But on their way back, they encountered some uninvited guests.

"My lord, I see a mixed army of gnolls, goblins and kobolds ahead, the number exceeds fifty."

"Among them were ordinary Gnolls and Gnoll robbers with sticks, and some Gnoll poachers with bows and crossbows. They also brought a dozen hyenas and held some captives. There seemed to be kobolds, orcs, humans and semi-humans among them. There are elves, and this seems to be a slave catcher."

"The most important thing is that there is a guy with a head and a body that is obviously much stronger than ordinary jackals. He is probably more than two meters tall, and he uses a very rare flail."

While speaking, Sam's face was full of fear, as if he had been frightened before the fight really started.

Li Wei frowned immediately. According to the information in the tavern, except for the coyote, which is a 0-level unit, the other three gnolls are all 1-level units, and there are so many of them, which is a bit fatal.

The most important thing was that he didn't know what type of army the two-meter-tall Wolf man was. There were only basic text descriptions in the tavern, and there were no corresponding patterns.

"The flail? A special weapon used by gnolls?"

"It is a strange weapon composed of a handle, a chain, and a hammer for attacking. It has a miraculous effect on enemies wearing sophisticated armor and equipped with shields. It is usually used by wolf man soldiers or wolf warlords. The weapon, based on the number of these gnolls, will almost certainly be the Overseer."

Turning her head, Li Wei found that Donna's expression became unusually serious, and it was obvious that the appearance of the enemy made her wary.

"Gnoll Warlord? How many levels of strength does it have?"

"Although the ranks of gnolls and hobgoblins are completely different, anyone with the title of warlord must have at least level 3 strength, and even have a high probability of having an elite template."

The corner of Li Wei's mouth twitched suddenly, Tier 3 elite?
My group has only killed a level 1 hobgoblin at the highest level so far, and usually Donna will snipe from a long distance, directly shooting the opponent to death, and the worst is to directly entangle the summoning element, and then let Donna shoot to death.

There was almost no close combat for the militiamen, so he didn't even fully understand the hobgoblin's hand-to-hand combat ability, and now he directly encountered such a powerful enemy?
Sam couldn't help swallowing when he heard the words: "My lord, what should we do? If these gnolls are allowed to leave, those unfortunate humans and half-elves may be reduced to food."

As far as he knew, jackals often hunted various humanoid creatures, including but not limited to humans, goblins, or kobolds and other relatively weaker races.

Sometimes they treat each other as slaves, but more often they treat each other as food or food reserves.

Only some evil faction races with relatively strong average strength, such as bear goblins, hobgoblins, ogres, or trolls, will become unstable allies of gnolls.

Of course, if the wolf man is hungry but fails to find a suitable prey for a while, no matter whether it is an ally or a slave, there will only be one end, that is, all of them will be turned into food, which is why their entire race One of the reasons both are so notorious.

Although Sam told Li Wei all the knowledge he knew quickly, after thinking about it, he still didn't make a decision immediately.

There was no way, the gap in strength between the two parties was too great, and after several adventures, especially after recruiting Donna, he didn't want to make fun of his life at all.

"Observe first, the grass here is a bit low, it is not convenient to hide, and there are so many coyotes on the other side, too close to it is easy to be spotted in advance, it is really unwise to approach or attack rashly, not to mention that I don't have enough of mana."

After a little explanation, he continued: "And we may not have no chance, you must know that this vicinity is the territory of our high elves!"

At this time, no one raised any objections, not counting the powerful races such as angels from different planes, humans, high elves, and dwarves. These three races are undoubtedly the three most powerful races in the justice camp. Now, small clans like jackals are not worth mentioning at all!
