Chapter 944: The Valkyrie Strikes
However, what she didn't expect was that after a lot of noise, their ally actually proposed to her the idea of taking down the Valkyrie's stronghold, which surprised Shaberina and the several adjutants who accompanied her.
But as a lord, the commander of the Winged Snakeman clan soon thought of Li Ran’s intention and knew that he wanted to use their side to accumulate troops.
But he had an irresolvable hatred with this female war god, and someone offered to help at this time. The commander of the Winged Snake Clan was very happy to agree to Li Ran. As for whether the latter would become bigger because of this, it was not in her consideration. Anyway, his side was already an ally with him. As long as he maintained this relationship, no matter whether he could sit in this mountain range in the future or be destroyed by several powerful genocides in the central area, it would not have much impact on him. Instead, as long as he killed this Valkyrie stronghold, they would have no hidden danger of extermination here.
So after Li Ran proposed this idea, the two sides quickly reached a consensus. After some discussion, the Winged Snake Man sent someone to help protect the Fire Giant Spirit territory, while Li Ran also asked Tang Zi and others to come back to help as soon as possible.
Although the Winged Snake tribe had already given a summary of the forces of this Valkyrie lineage, for safety reasons, Li Ran still waited for Tang Zi to come back and asked him to inquire first.
However, the result was not good. Faced with the Valkyrie stronghold that had various mounts and tight protection, even Tang Zi could not find any opportunity to take advantage of it. He could only risk using the flying troops to conduct some general reconnaissance on its internal buildings and barracks, giving a general situation.
At the same time, in order to better understand his opponent, Li Ran and others also checked various information again. Judging from these information, as the gods' swordsman, Valkyrie is wearing hollowed-out fully-covered armor, showing majestic and elegant, and proficient in various riding and weapons.
Generally speaking, Valkyrie can control any mount, and they also have a special ability to recruit any mount in their sight for their own use. However, if they are not required, there will be three types of mounts they ride, namely Pegasus, Eight-legged Horse and Dragon Horse. Regardless of which of these three mounts, the lowest level is above the legendary level.
As for the weapons in their hands, they are the same as their mounts. Except for the extremely special ones, they will use most of the weapons, but their best skills are their standard swords and Changyu.
Perhaps it is the privilege given by the gods. Each Valkyrie will wear a cloak that can only be equipped by the lord. They sometimes take it off during battles. As for their elegant hollow full-covered armor, because when it is well-used, it not only provides them with the best defense, but also does not weigh too high. For the Valkyrie's average height of about two meters and the body that has been solidified by various spells, it will not affect their agile movement.
According to these information, most of the warriors in this Valkyrie stronghold used war swords. This was observed during air reconnaissance through their training camp. Of course, if they were allowed to get on the mount, the more dominant Changyu could also be taken out at any time. This is also the mysterious clan that specifically provides troops to the gods, and the ability given to each Valkyrie. From this point of view, their or their abilities are not inferior to that of a real god.
As for their number, the number found by Tang Guizhou should be similar to that given by the Winged Snake tribe, about three or four thousand people. The value of the matter is that there is a stable that can raise about one thousand mounts.
Taking these full-time warriors of God as their opponents, even though their number is not too large, all caution is not redundant. When he learned that the warriors in this Valkyrie stronghold were mainly composed of common elf women and human women, Li Ran also found the commander of the Winged Snake Man that afternoon and discussed with her the specific steps of cooperation again.
Attack is naturally unfavorable. Although the opponent's stronghold is not large, the construction defense measures are quite complete. Both sentries and city walls are piled up with solid rocks, and the layout is very reasonable. The difficulty of conquering it is nothing more than capturing a real city. Moreover, these Valkyrie will also use crossbows and build various large traps. If you attack rashly, you will only put the team in a desperate situation.
So Li Ran thought of leading them out for a battle. After deliberately showing up with some winged snake men not far from their territory, he set up an ambush and killed an opponent's squadron of about a hundred people, and hurried back before the opponent's large army arrived.
Through this small battle, Li Ran and others finally realized the strength of these Valkyrie gods. With his command, they also used nearly twice the strength of their troops. Only then did they take them down with little casualties, which shows their strength.
Although they do not have the ability to challenge the level above certain special races, nor do they have huge body shape and talent advantages like dragon creatures, long-term training for dozens or even hundreds of years has not only made them very rich in combat experience, but also have extremely strong cooperation ability when fighting. It can be said that one person has one person's tactics, two people have two people's tactics, and ten people have ten people's tactics, and they can maximize their advantages on the battlefield. This alone is beyond the reach of most corps.
It was precisely because of this small battle that Li Ran had to postpone the attack while recognizing the real abilities of the Valkyrie warriors, because the ability of the Valkyrie above the legendary level on the opposite side was beyond his expectations. He originally thought that relying on large flying troops and powerful creatures such as Fire Giant Spirits could control their high-level troops well, but he did not expect that they would have such powerful air combat capabilities and cooperation capabilities. His idea was declared a failure.
Although he has no advantages in physical and talent, this is a military force with almost no shortcomings. He is excellent in any kind of battle, which makes Li Ran really exhausted. On the other hand, what Li Ran is most worried about is their nearly 100 epic military forces.
Although he now has more than 20 epic creatures, even if the Winged Snake Man can provide, the number of other troops at this level is still far inferior to that of the opponent. He originally thought that relying on other troops could restrict them, and then he would conspire to deal with these epic creatures after he eliminated their other troops. However, now he found that there were no troops to restrain them, Li Ran was a little worried.
But when they wanted to study it again, the other party did not give them a chance. They were actually attacked by the Winged Snake Man whom they looked down upon, just like a sleeping lion being stepped on by a sheep. Three days later, a team of nearly a thousand Valkyrie rushed over and launched a large-scale attack on the Winged Snake Man clan.
Unexpectedly, these women would be so crazy. Li Ran, who was thinking about how to draw them out, couldn't help but smile helplessly. However, when he cooperated with these winged snake men to defend, he once again felt the power of these Valkyrie Gods. With only one thousand troops, he directly attacked the territory of the winged snake man with more than 6,000 warriors. The various battle formations they formed were constantly killing any creatures who were not the same clan when they were moving.
Fortunately, the Eniu Corps had been trained before. After taking over the command of the corps from the commander of the Winged Snake Man, Saberlina, Li Ran ordered the army to launch a charge at a critical moment, dispersing their formation in time, and causing the battle to enter a melee.
I originally thought that these crazy female warriors were just coming to take revenge, but I didn't expect that they really had the ability to capture the territory of the Winged Snake Man. Fortunately, Li Ran and others were also present at this time. While summoning some powerful troops to help defend, Li Ran thought for a while and decided not to miss this opportunity and completely left these guys.
With more than 500 legendary fire giants and mountain giants appearing, some of Li Ran's epic troops also snatched the captains of the Valkyrie Epic rank under his command.
On the other side, Li Ran took some troops around the territory gate and waved his hand to summon the King of the Touching Beetle.
At this time, the king of the touching beetle in the combat form had a body length of more than 30 meters and a width of nearly twenty meters, nearly twice as large as before. He was a real behemoth.
What's even more terrifying is that at this time, arc-shaped bone spurs emerged around its crystal carapace with flame patterns. On its carapace, there was a huge half-body elf at this moment, with a face shape consistent with what it had shown before. The upper body was a female elf covered with a material like a carapace, and the lower body was still inside the carapace, which seemed to be dissolved with the entire carapace.
Don’t think that such an extra half-body elf is a flaw. In fact, this half-body elf is just a derivative of this back armor. Its defense is stronger than that of the real back armor. Even if it is broken, it will have no effect on the body of the King of Touching Winged Beetle. In fact, it is more like a flaw exposed on purpose, waiting for the enemy to take the bait.
On the contrary, this huge half-body elf formed by the back armor has very powerful attack power. All kinds of weapons condensed casually have the lethality of legendary weapons. In addition, they can move at will on the wide back armor. If you want to kill this "flaw" with legendary ability, it is not something that ordinary people can do.
The emergence of such a huge creature undoubtedly attracted the attention of everyone, including the Winged Snake Man. The latter was nothing. Although it was a little shocked, it was their own allies. The stronger they were, the better they were. For those Valkyrie who had killed many creatures and captured a large number of Winged Snake Man, they found this blocker when they were about to withdraw from their territory. They were also shocked.
