Universe Infinite Canteen

Chapter 258 The unexpected survivor

In addition to the witch who arrived initially, two more witches arrived at the explosion point, all of whom were left by Levi outside the woods from the beginning.

As for the four witches who fought with him, including the middle-aged witch who had just sworn to serve him not long ago, they were all killed by the missile attack.

Levi felt regretful for a moment, because they were all witches he had carefully selected and trained for a long time. Some of them had even been with him for more than ten years. However, his regret only lasted for a moment.

For knights, witches are consumables.

The key lies in the balance between costs and benefits, and in this operation, Levi's gains obviously far exceeded his efforts.

Not only did he destroy the Witch Alliance in one fell swoop, he also solved the crisis outside the city, regained ground for the previous attack in the mine, and brought his reputation in the Knights to its peak.

Moreover, he also dealt with a group of knights who were close to the leader Martin, further expanding his faction's influence in the Knights.

As long as the death of Shrike can be confirmed, Levi can use this credit to successfully replace Martin and become the new leader of the Holy Knights.

Just as Li Wei was thinking this, out of the corner of his eye he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure that shouldn't have appeared here.

The deputy leader of the Holy Knights also had a rare look of astonishment on his face.

"Master Li Wei, are you okay?" Malu trotted from the other end of the woods and shouted before he could reach Li Wei, his tone full of concern.

"Knight...Nishiki?"

Levi was very surprised, "Why are you here?"

"Have you forgotten? Following your order, I entered the woods to search for the whereabouts of those fallen witches. When I saw the smoke and dust billowing up here and the flames rising into the sky, I hurried over again."

"So you weren't attacked during your search?"

"Attack?" Ma Lu said, "I was just about to report this incident to you. On the way here, I saw a lot of corpses, all of which were our people."

Malu tried to make his voice sound sad, "They... they have all been poisoned by those fallen witches. I suggested from the beginning that you should not spread your hands. This is a trap set by the Shrike."

"…………"

Levi wanted to say, "Why are you still alive and well when everyone else was brutally attacked?" But this kind of words was obviously not suitable to be said.

As for doing things like finishing blows himself, Levi would not let himself leave such an obvious stain as he was going to become the leader of the Knights.

Sending someone to die and killing someone yourself are two different things. The former has no evidence at all, but the nature of the latter is much more serious once it is exposed.

Therefore, Li Wei could only hold his nose and say, "I know, I was indeed negligent this time, but fortunately I have killed all the enemies." After a pause, he even added for the first time, "You It’s okay.”

Malu looked flattered, and finally showed his fox tail.

He had been preparing for this moment for so long.

"You seem to be injured. Take a good rest. Let me deal with the activated plants nearby."

At this time, Levi also noticed that the three witches he sent out were in a hard fight, and their main opponent was a big sweet potato riding an eggplant.

The sweet potato's combat effectiveness was quite high. It held a street lamp picked up from somewhere as a spear, and held a homemade vine shield in its other hand.

Really charging around like a classical knight.

Although its attacks are mainly melee combat, the street lamp is 10 meters long and can cover a large area in one sweep. Moreover, the large eggplant he uses as a mount has amazing mobility.

It can jump 5 meters at a time, which means that the 15 meters in front of it is its attack area. Coupled with an attack power of up to 52 points, an ordinary witch will basically be hit twice if it is hit twice. .

However, the use of this long-handled weapon is not without its drawbacks. A witch under Li Wei saw the opportunity and rushed in front of the angry Sweet Potato Knight as fast as possible, only half a step away from it.

This was also a blind spot for streetlight spear attacks, and she thought she could avoid damage in this way.

But unexpectedly, after she got close, the angry Sweet Potato Knight immediately switched his attack methods and raised his vine shield to hit her continuously, almost smashing her into pieces.

Levi also saw that his witch was in trouble, and he didn't know where the shrike had brought such a powerful activated plant. If the Wolf Spider, the female assassin who could lurk in the shadows before, had not died, it would have been right. Suitable for dealing with this sweet potato.

Unfortunately, he had just experienced a fierce battle, and the manpower available to him was somewhat insufficient.

But Li Wei was skeptical about whether Malu could help. After all, the young man in front of him had just graduated from the attendant school less than a month ago, and he was still a complete rookie.

However, Li Wei then thought of Malu's outstanding performance in the previous tasks, and successively solved many difficult activated plants, and couldn't help but have a little expectation for him.

Anyway, Levi has changed his armor now. At worst, he will turn around and run away if something goes wrong. Someone willing to step forward and delay the sweet potato will only benefit him and not hurt him.

The deputy leader of the Holy Knights nodded to Ma Lu, "Then be careful."

Malu had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, and after hearing the words, he immediately made preparations for the battle.

The tactic he adopted this time was very simple, that is - hard!

After three consecutive rounds of equipment updates and engraving effects, the team's strength has made a qualitative leap compared to when he first took over.

Malu adjusted the formation to the fish scale formation.

This is the reward he got after upgrading his knight level to lv15. The fish scale formation is a defense-strengthening formation, which can increase the defense power by 25%. At the same time, it will not lose the attack like the iron barrel formation.

Then Malu planted the Iron Wall Flag on the map to add another layer of protection to the team.

Of course, these operations of his were invisible to Li Wei. In fact, because of Li Wei's presence, Ma Lu had restrained himself a lot and did not use all his methods.

Afterwards, the Bird of Paradise also started chanting spells to add buffs to the team, and then she also activated the skill Curse of the Lake Monster attached to the [Tear of the Lake Necklace].

The angry Sweet Potato Knight's attack power dropped from 52 points to 39 points. As a result, even Skylark, who was at the bottom of the team in terms of defense and HP, could resist at least three attacks from the Angry Sweet Potato Knight.

As the main attacker, Cerberus, with the blessing of a set of top-notch equipment, directly suppressed the damage of the angry Sweet Potato Knight to single digits.

"Come on!" followed by Malu's order.

The purple-haired girl also took big steps and rushed towards the tall knight in front of her.
