Chapter 85: The strength rises sharply

After another night, the number of high elves soldiers in the village who belonged to the God-Selected Heroes has obviously increased, and there are several types compared to yesterday.

There are no longer the unified shield-holding spear soldiers yesterday, but there are also archers, rangers holding double swords, white-colored wolfs, etc. There is even a hero of God who has brought a Rothen Ocean Guard.

As a third-level army, he holds a spear in one hand and a shield in the other, and has a bow and arrow behind him. Not only does he look handsome, but they are really strong, judging from the information collected on the forum.

Because it is not considered a hero of God’s Chosen, all pure-blooded high elves have a very unique and enviable racial talent.

Shangwu: When health is higher than 50%, attack power +2 and defense power +6.

The equipment brought by the high elves is already good, and with this passive skill, it is even more resistant to beating than dwarves of the same level.

Moreover, this is common to all members. Not only are there spearmen and Lothen Marine Guards, but also include fragile troops such as Rangers, and even long-range units such as archers. This is very useful at this stage and greatly improves their survival ability.

This also made most of the God-Selected Heroes, including Li Wei, understand why high elves only had militia from foreign tribes at the beginning, because if there were really a 0-level high elves, then according to the settings, they would definitely have this martial arts talent, which would be too buggy.

In addition, some people did not use military merit points to recruit troops, but used them to improve their military rank. Then everyone found that this military rank could improve their leadership, which was definitely precious to the heroes of the God-Selected.

Although the improvement is not large and the points consumed are consumed, everyone believes that the future potential of the military rank system is great, and this is just a type of title, and it is even more attractive if you don’t occupy any equipment bar at all.

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

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

The elves have three subspecies: aquatic elves, blood elves and half elves;

There are many forest dwarfs and underground dwarfs;

Elemental creatures have some elemental blood descendants. Their appearance is beginning to be more inclined to humans, and they are also born to master the power of elements in their respective bloodlines. This can probably slightly improve the serious shortage of the elemental god-selected heroes;

As for humans, there are some more birth areas to choose from, including the city-confederate alliance - the countries of Estalia, the country of mercenary - the dog of war Tyrier, etc.

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

In short, this continues to enrich the background information to a certain extent and enrich everyone's choices, because according to the announcement, these newly emerging racial troops can also be recruited by other alien races' god-selected heroes.

And probably to encourage the newly arrived Divine Selected Heroes to catch up with their predecessors as soon as possible. The system also rewarded a little extra money after they appeared. Although it was not much, it was only 100 copper coins, this did represent a certain tendency.

This also made Li Wei more and more alert. He must go to the rocky highlands immediately and wipe out as many werewolves as possible. Otherwise, when he had Donna and others under his command, he would be surpassed by others, so he would be too useless.

However, he has not been in vain for two days, especially yesterday, after selling the temporarily useless spoils and enchanting the heroes of the Gods, he has really gained a lot.

So he first went to Green Blade Village to complete the enchantment mission in the tavern, and harvested gold coins and a scroll of level 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, the opponent may be tripped or even hang upside down based on the opponent's attributes and user's intelligence.

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 do an experiment.

Then he directly filled several bottles of magic potions, attached magic to Cindy and others' white equipment, and filled Donna with all the leadership troops in Green Blade Village. He also had more than twenty half-elves under his command, and the number of the entire army suddenly expanded to more than fifty people.

This also made Li Wei slightly change his opinion. Even a hero with gray quality called by Donna has its own meaning. They can be used to command the troops.

Even if the attributes are poor, being able to become a hero will have more or less command talents, which is better than a bunch of soldiers running around.

Because of Donna's request, she was all half-elf-range troops under her command, including half-elf-long bowmen, half-elf-archers and half-elf-hunters. Since she said she wanted to be purer, Li Wei simply let her just care about the long-range troops.

He also specially bought her a 50-frame small space ring for her, which was specifically 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, their speed of consuming arrows is getting faster and faster.

Levi's initial space backpack was only 10 square meters. He bought a 30 square small space ring from businessman Tross, but this combined only 40 square meters.

Calculate that 100 arrows can be stacked per grid, they can only carry up to 4,000 arrows at a time.

At first glance, this number looks a lot, but if it averages dozens of archers, it is actually not much. You should know that once they go out, they basically plan to fight outside for a day.

And in fact, they cannot use them all to hold arrows, and they also have to divide some of them to hold daily supplies, herbs and bandages for combat, etc.

Although each archer carries two or three archers, Donna has a magic archer that has a lower chance to cast "flying" for the arrows, but in fact, the number of arrows is not enough during the battle.

Especially Donna herself, who has excellent archery skills and can use continuous pearl arrows, her consumption is often more than that of three or five half-elves.

However, 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-meter medium-sized space ring is worth 20 gold coins. Li Wei cannot afford it for the time being. He wants more light ammunition trucks that belong to war machinery.

On the surface, the thing looks like a small cart with two wheels, but in fact it also has a certain magic effect. It can directly directly have up to 20,000 arrows/cross arrows/bullets at one time, or giant arrows of 2,000 crossbow chariots, or 2,000 artillery shells.

And it's not expensive, it's only 10 gold coins.

Of course, cheapness has its disadvantages.

First of all, during the movement, it requires a person with a strength of at least 10 o'clock to pull the cart. Now there are only three people in the team, Donna, Zhou Miyin and Swordsman Simon, the son of Sigma, who are qualified.

However, if there are cattle, horses and other livestock, this problem can be solved to a certain extent, but you also need to use a coachman and aboriginal people like grooms, and the cost will increase accordingly.

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

Secondly, this thing can be destroyed. If you are attacked suddenly halfway and the ammunition truck is smashed by the enemy, the arrows there will also turn into ashes.

But no matter what, this at least provides an idea, which is that you don’t know if the ammunition truck can be attached with defensive magic such as mage armor. If you can, just be careful, it will be a big problem.

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

Except for one team that is specifically used to protect him, the other two teams are led by Zhou Miyin and the newly joined Big Loli Cindy. He wants to train more so that they can gradually gain some command and coordinated combat capabilities.

Elite units not only mean stronger combat effectiveness, but also higher potential and wisdom. To go further, they are far more suitable for becoming heroes than ordinary troops.

Unfortunately, as the strength of the God-Selected Heroes continued to expand, their money was getting more and more, and no special troops were left for him to recruit.

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

As the heroes of God’s Chosen became more and more active, many indigenous people who had a desire for adventure or money gradually became active. They began to gather towards various novices villages in the hope of finding opportunities to make a name for themselves.

A considerable number of them did not lack the courage to take risks, but before the heroes of Gods appeared, they did not encounter the right opportunity. After all, it is rare for people who are as enthusiastic as the heroes of Gods to fight everywhere all day long and give money to them with pleasure and generous.

At the same time, Li Wei also took time to go to the horse shed. It was too uncomfortable to ride a mount wolf. The flame war goose also needed intermediate riding skills and could not ride for the time being. He had to choose a temporary transition mount for himself.

Then he found that there were not many types of mounts in the village, with only four types of cattle, sheep, horse and donkey. Among them, sheep are only suitable for small units. The other three types are either agricultural or pick-up goods, and there is no real war horse at all.

But even so, their prices are not cheap. The recruitment price of ordinary second-level troops is only a few silver coins, but they each start with 1 gold coins, and saddles and reins also cost extra money.

But despite this, Li Wei still picked a little dark horse that was more pleasing to the eye. Not to mention anything else, it could at least liberate his legs.

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

Of course, if you already have riding level, you will definitely be able to control them better.

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

And yesterday, I waited for Big Loli Cindy to find the priest of the Temple of Justice and learned two kinds of magic skills from the other party for free.

The first is the level 0 magic art - the water-making technique. As the name suggests, this magic art can create pure drinking water out of thin air, and there are quite a lot of them.

They had an experiment together before. It only took 10 magic points to make a large loli directly produce about 8 liters of water at one time, and it was no different from what Li Wei bought in the village store, and it might even be cleaner.

In addition, Donna's magical berry technique may be of great use in some extreme cases.

The second type is the first-level magic technique - entropy light armor. Its effect is to summon a colorful armor to cover the whole body. In this way, all long-range attacks of arrows and rays may fail to aim because of misjudgment of the target, resulting in attack errors.

Although it is only a level 1 magic technique, Li Wei thinks this thing is actually very powerful. It seems that some of his previous ideas are not correct. The low magic level does not necessarily mean that the effect is very poor. For example, his summoning element (small size) has been used until now?

A mage-type unit like him is very afraid of the enemy's long-range fire concentration, but with this magical technique, coupled with the mage's armor and oil on the soles of his feet, Li Wei's survivability will be further improved.

After mastering two new magical techniques, the skill panel of Big Loli has become more and more gorgeous. Now Li Wei has great expectations for her future. If one day she can become a hero unit, she will probably not be much inferior to Donna, right?

As for the mount wolf, after a simple consideration, Li Wei finally decided to hand it over to Sam. He was responsible for the investigation all day and should run faster.

For people of medium size, riding a wolf with mount is very uncomfortable, but halflings can even ride a big goose, so it is not a big problem to ride a wolf.

In addition, Li Wei also solved his riding problem. Although this universal skill is rare and expensive, he has enchanted many heroes of the God-Selected in the village for several days in a row. He has also accumulated some connections, which just happened to solve this problem.

Unfortunately, the intermediate riding technique of riding a flame battle goose is very rare. Apart from redeeming military points, no one has seen it nearby for the time being, so he naturally has no way to obtain it.

Sam was a little worried at first because no one of the halflings had ever regarded wolves as mounts. The most common ones were war geese, followed by goats and the other ones.

But soon with the help of primary riding, he got the fun of riding. Not to mention, the mount wolf also has thick soles, which is similar to their halflings to some extent, and are both helpful for hidden action, just suitable for him as a scout.

Soon Donna also chose a dark horse, while Cindy chose a little donkey.

The latter is fine. She is not too tall and riding a small donkey is OK, but Donna's long legs riding this thin horse seems a little inconsistent.

But there is no way. There are only these types of mounts in the village for the time being. If you want to change them, you can only find another opportunity in the future.

Young Horse (level 0): Strength 6, Agility 5, Physical 6, Health 60, Movement Speed ​​10, Normal load 120 kg.

It seems that the movement speed of this mount is not the same as that of ordinary humanoid creatures. What makes Li Wei feel a little more gratified is that the young horse does not need maintenance costs.

According to the manager of the horse shed, young horses are not specialized war horses, they can just feed them some grass, and even when they are in the wild, they will take the initiative to find grass to eat.

Of course, the other party also said that if you can feed it some special grains with beans, its movement speed and load will also increase in a short period of time.

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

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

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

Of course, they are used differently from humans, and they all require specially customized sharp claws, iron mouths, armor, or other similar items, so they will also be significantly more expensive in terms of price.

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

However, the boss also clearly stated that ordinary claws are only effective for low-level animals, because the claws of many high-level beasts themselves can already compare to metals, and may even be better.
