Long Live the Call of Heroes

Chapter 85
After another night, the number of high elf soldiers belonging to the God's Chosen Heroes in the village has increased significantly, and compared to yesterday, there are several more types.

It is no longer the uniform shield-wielding spearmen of yesterday, but there are also archers, rangers holding double swords, white Lothern spirit wolves, etc., and even a God's Choice hero brought a Lothern Ocean Guardian.

As a Tier 3 unit, he holds a spear in one hand, a shield in the other, and a bow and arrow on his back. Not only does he look handsome, but according to the information collected on the forum, they are really strong.

Because they are not God's Chosen Heroes, all pure-blooded high elves have a very unique and highly envied racial talent.

Martial Arts: When HP is higher than 50%, attack power +2, defense power +6.

The equipment that the high elves bring is good, and with this passive skill, they are even more resistant to beating than dwarves of the same level.

And this is common to all members, not only Spearmen and Lothern Ocean Guards, but also crispy units such as Rangers, and even long-range units such as Archers. This is very useful at this stage, and it has greatly improved their viability.

This also made most God's Chosen heroes including Li Wei understand why the high elves only had militias from foreign races at the beginning, because if there were really 0-level high elves, then according to the setting, they would definitely With this martial talent, it would be too buggy.

In addition, some people did not use military merit points to recruit troops, but to improve their own military ranks, and then everyone found that this military rank can improve leadership, which is definitely a good thing for God's Chosen Heroes It is precious.

Although the improvement is not large and consumes a lot of points, everyone believes that the military rank system has great potential in the future, and this is just a kind of title, which does not take up any equipment slots at all, which is even more attractive.

At the same time, a small update was also carried out last night, and many races have added some optional subspecies.

For example, dwarves have more hilly dwarves and mountain dwarves;

There are three more subspecies of elves: aquatic elves, blood elves and half elves;

There are more gnomes in forest gnomes and subterranean gnomes;

Elemental creatures have more elemental blood descendants. Their appearance is more inclined to human beings, and they are also born with the power of the elements in their bloodlines. Presumably this can slightly improve the serious shortage of elemental God's Chosen heroes;

As for humans, there are some more alternative birth regions, including the city-state alliance-Estalia, the mercenary country-Tyrell, the dog of war, and so on.

Compared with the previous initial optional races, their initial attributes, talents, skills, and even the arms that can be recruited in the novice village may be slightly different.

All in all, this continues to enrich the background information to a certain extent, and also enriches everyone's choices, because according to the announcement, the units of these newly emerged races can also be recruited by God's Chosen heroes of other races.

And probably to encourage the newly-arrived god-chosen heroes to catch up with their predecessors as soon as possible. After they appeared, the system rewarded them with a little extra money. Although it was not much, it was only 100 copper coins, but it did represent a certain tendency.

This also made Li Wei more vigilant. He must immediately go to the rocky highlands and wipe out as many jackals as possible. It's rubbish.

However, his work has not been in vain these two days, especially yesterday, after selling the temporarily useless loot and enchanting the god-chosen heroes, he really reaped a lot of money.

So he first went to Green Blade Village to complete the enchanting task in the tavern, and got gold coins and a scroll of Tier 1 magic-magic trap.

Its effect is to create a temporary invisible magic trap with a radius of two meters centered on the user. If an enemy breaks in during this period, based on the attributes of the opponent and the intelligence of the user, the opponent may be killed. Tripping, even hanging upside down.

This is a defensive magic, but I don't know the specific effect. Unfortunately, there is only one scroll, and Li Wei can't use it to experiment.

Then he directly poured a few bottles of magic potions, enchanted the white equipment of Cindy and the others, and replenished all the leadership troops for Donna in Green Blade Village, and he also had twenty more under his command Half-elf, the number of the entire army suddenly swelled to more than fifty people.

This also made Li Wei slightly change his previous opinion. Even the gray-quality heroes that Donna calls useless, actually have their own meaning. They can be used to command troops.

Even if the attribute is poor, but to be able to become a hero, there is more or less commanding talent, which is better than a bunch of little soldiers running around.

Because of Donna's request, her subordinates are all half-elf long-range troops, including half-elf longbowmen, half-elf archers, and half-elf hunters. Since she said she wants to be purer, then Li Wei simply let her Just ranged troops.

And he bought a small 50-slot space ring specially for her, specially used to carry arrows, which really cost him a lot of money.

There is no way, as the number of long-range shooters in the team continues to increase, the speed at which they consume arrows is also getting faster and faster.

Li Wei's initial space backpack is only 10 grids. He bought a small 30-slot space ring from the merchant Teros before, but it only adds up to 40 grids.

Based on the fact that each cell can stack 100 arrows, they can only carry a maximum of 4000 arrows at a time.

This number seems a lot at first glance, but if it is averaged to dozens of archers, it is actually not that many. You must know that once they go out, they basically plan to fight outside for a day.

And in fact, it is impossible for them to use all of them to hold arrows, and a part must be allocated to hold everyone's daily supplies, herbs and bandages for combat, etc.

Although every archer carries two or three quiveres, and Donna has a magic quiver with a low probability of "flying" for the arrows, but in actual battle, the number of arrows is still the same. Not quite enough.

Especially Donna herself, who is very good at archery and can use Lianzhu arrows, her consumption by herself is often more than that of three or five half-elves combined.

But now Li Wei has equipped her with a small space ring, which can alleviate this problem to a certain extent.

But this cannot permanently solve the problem. The 100-slot medium-sized space ring is worth 20 gold coins, and Li Wei can't afford it for the time being. What he wants more is a light ammunition vehicle that is a type of war machine.

On the surface, that thing looks like a small cart with two wheels, but in fact it also has a certain magical effect. It can direct up to 20000 arrows/crossbow bolts/bullets at a time, or a giant ballista with 2000 ballistas. Arrows, or 2000 artillery shells.

And its price is not too expensive, only 10 gold coins.

Of course, being cheap also has its downsides.

First of all, in the process of moving, it needs a person with a strength of at least 10 points to pull the cart. Right now, only Donna, Zhou Miyin, and the swordsman Simon, the son of Sigma, are eligible for the team.

However, if there are livestock such as cattle and horses, this problem can also be solved to a certain extent, but it will also need to be equipped with aboriginal people such as coachmen and grooms, and the cost will increase accordingly.

However, if the team has skills such as druids and animal trainers, they can also play a similar role, and there is no need for a coachman.

Secondly, this thing can be destroyed. If there is a sudden attack on the way and the ammunition cart is crushed by the enemy, the arrows inside will also be turned into fly ash
But in any case, this at least provides an idea, that is, I don't know if the ammunition cart can be equipped with defensive magic such as mage armor. If it is possible, as long as it is careful, it is still not a big problem.

As for Li Wei's own troops, they are basically melee troops, including half-elf soldiers, swordsmen, spearmen, etc., and they are roughly divided into several squads.

Except for one team that is dedicated to protecting him, the other two teams are in charge of Zhou Miyin and the newly joined Big Lolita Cindy. He wants to cultivate more, so that they will gradually have some command and coordination capabilities. .

Elite units not only mean stronger combat effectiveness, but also higher potential and intelligence. Furthermore, they are far more suitable to become heroes than ordinary units.

It's a pity that as the strength of the God's Chosen heroes continues to expand, they have more and more money in their hands, and there are no special troops left for him to recruit.

I heard from the people in the tavern that at noon yesterday, some militia captains and volunteers were recruited away.

As God's Chosen Heroes become more and more active, many aborigines who are eager for adventure or money have gradually heard the news, and they began to gather in various novice villages, hoping to find a chance to get ahead.

A considerable number of them do not lack the courage to take risks, but before the God's Chosen Heroes appeared, they did not meet the right opportunity. Happy and generous people are still very rare.

At the same time, Li Wei took the time to go to the stable once. The wolf mount was too uncomfortable to ride, and the Flame War Goose needed intermediate riding skills, so he couldn't ride it for the time being. He also had to choose a temporary mount for himself.

Then he discovered that there were not many types of mounts in the village. There were only four types of mounts: cattle, sheep, horses, and donkeys. Among them, sheep were only suitable for small-sized units. The other three were either agricultural or Those who pull goods don't have any real war horses at all.

But even so, their prices are not cheap. The recruitment price of ordinary Tier 2 units is only a few silver coins, but each of them starts with 1 gold coin, and saddles and reins need to be paid extra.

But even so, Li Wei still picked a little black horse that was more pleasing to the eye. Among other things, at least he could free his legs.

Moreover, these types of mounts all have a common advantage, that is, they do not require any riding skills, and they can be ridden directly after buying them.

Of course, if you already have a riding level, you can definitely control them better.

Then he asked Donna and Cindy to choose a mount by themselves. As the two girls with the highest strength and potential in the team, it was only natural for him to take extra care of them.

And yesterday, the big Lolita Cindy went to the priest of the Temple of Justice, and learned two kinds of magic spells from him for free.

The first one is the 0th-level divine art - water creation. As the name suggests, this magical art can create pure drinking water out of thin air, and there are quite a lot of them.

They did an experiment together before, only needing to spend 10 points of mana, Big Lolita can directly produce about 8 liters of water at one time, and it is no different from what Li Wei bought in the store in the village, and it may even be more Clean up.

Coupled with Donna's magic berry technique, in some extreme situations, this might be of great use.

The second is the 1st-level divine art-entropic light armor. Its effect is to summon a colorful armor covering the whole body, so that all long-range attacks of arrows and rays may be caused by misjudging the target. And failed to aim, resulting in attack errors.

Although it is only a level 1 magical technique, Li Wei feels that this thing is actually very powerful. It seems that some of his previous ideas were not correct. A low level of magic does not necessarily mean that the effect is poor. For example, his summoning Element (small), hasn't it been used until now?
A mage-type unit like him is very afraid of the enemy's long-range fire, but with this magic, coupled with mage armor and foot oil, Li Wei's survivability will be further improved.

After mastering two new magical arts, the skill panel of Big Lolita has become more and more gorgeous. Now Li Wei has great expectations for her future. If she can become a hero unit one day, it must not be too much. How inferior will it be to Donna?
As for the mount wolf, after simple consideration, Li Wei finally decided to hand it over to Sam. He was in charge of scouting all day, so he should run faster.

For Li Wei and others of medium size, riding a wolf mount is very uncomfortable, but halflings can even ride a big goose, so riding a wolf is not a big problem.

Moreover, Li Wei also solved the problem of his riding skills. Although this kind of universal skill is rare and expensive, he spent several days in the village enchanting the weapons of many god-chosen heroes, and he also accumulated Some connections, just solved this problem.

It's a pity that the middle-level riding skills of riding the Flaming War Goose are very rare. Except for exchanging military merit points, no one has seen it nearby, so he naturally has no way of obtaining it.

Sam was a little worried at first, because none of the halflings had ever used wolves as mounts. The most they had were war geese, followed by goats and the like.

But soon with the help of elementary riding skills, he got the pleasure of riding. Not to mention, the mount wolf also has thick paws, which are similar to their halflings to some extent, which are helpful for concealment Yes, just right for him as a scout.

Soon Donna also picked a dark horse, and Cindy picked a little donkey.

The latter was fine, she wasn't too tall, and she was fine riding a little donkey, but Donna's long legs seemed a little uncoordinated on such a skinny horse.

But there is no way, there are only these types of mounts in the village for the time being, and if you want to replace them, you can only look for opportunities later.

Young Horse (Level 0): Strength 6, Dexterity 5, Constitution 6, HP 60, Movement Speed ​​10, Normal Load 120kg.

It seems that the movement speed of this kind of mount is not calculated in the same way as that of ordinary humanoid creatures. What makes Li Wei a little relieved is that the young horse does not need maintenance costs.

According to the manager of the stable, the young horse is not a special war horse, just feed it some grass, even when it is in the wild, it will take the initiative to find grass to eat.

Of course, the other party also said that if it could be fed some special food with beans added, its moving speed and load would also increase in a short time.

Although there is no need, Li Wei still bought a little, wanting to know a little bit about the relevant information.

The attributes of Cindy's little donkey are slightly different from those of young horses, but they are still on the same level overall.

At the same time, when purchasing reins and saddles, Li Wei also learned about it by the way, including the druid's animal companions, as well as ordinary low-level animal subordinates, can actually be equipped with weapons or even armor.

Of course, they use different claws, iron mouths, armor, or other similar items that need to be customized, so the price will be significantly more expensive.

But if there are enough resources, their combat effectiveness can be further improved.

But at the same time, the boss also made it clear that ordinary sharp claws are only effective against low-level animals, because the sharp claws of many high-level beasts can already compare to metal, and may even be better.

The most obvious ones are some ferocious animals, as well as the big cat, the saber-toothed tiger Laxili, who has recently become famous and easily slaughtered troops led by four or five god-chosen heroes one after another.

According to the current intelligence, it is at least a Tier 4 elite, and it has a very high armor-piercing effect when attacking, which is something that ordinary green or even blue quality equipment may not be able to do.

Seeing that everyone has their own mounts, this makes Zhou Miyin on the other side very envious, because he knows that the next step of Yuyong Spearmen has two options, one of which is cavalry unit.

If he can own his own mount in advance now, will he be able to display a stronger combat power after being promoted in the future?
Li Wei also learned this from him. He didn't expect this kid to go to the cavalry route, but after going through this recruitment and supply, he had very little money left in his pocket, so he could only let him go. Zhou Miyin lined up at the back.

　Thank you for your support, 200 subscriptions, bow~
　　Also tweaked Donna's panel slightly:

　　Battle attribute, attack 2 defense 1 → attack 3; old enemy, wolf man → wolf human.

　　Balanced mana consumption: Tier 1 mana consumption will not exceed 15 points.
