Chapter 103: The Unrivaled Lava Crystal Dragon
Destroying with overwhelming force and irresistible!
With just two blasts of dragon breath, the Terror Knight's side collapsed.
The guy rode his nightmare horse very fast and soon disappeared from sight.
These undead heroes, like many of the apprentice heroes, have the ability to lead troops, but they lack the divine domain.
Their intelligence is not weak, and of course they will run away when faced with an enemy they cannot resist.
But he couldn't escape. Long Shou and Long Fa flapped their wings at the same time and soared into the sky to chase him.
Upon seeing this, Li Qing communicated with the Lava Crystal Dragon, Dragon Guardian and Dragon Law, and asked the two to guide him in the direction and chase after him.
As for the fleeing undead all over the mountains, he asked the commanders on the four city walls to organize a troop each to kill them, just in time to gain some experience while the undead lost their command.
At this point, the battle is basically over.
It was a little sudden. Li Qing did not expect that the dragon method infused with his divine power would be so powerful. It was like an invincible power that directly chopped off the enemy commander's head.
The lava crystal dragon on the other side was even more powerful. It spit out a wave of saliva and washed the ground with it. The maximum coverage area was close to 500 meters in radius. Even the enemy commander was scared away.
After making sure that the battle was over, Li Qing finally had time to go to the confinement room.
The already opened confinement array extended several magical chains to lock the lich's head, which could prohibit the lich from mobilizing his mental and magical powers, and his consciousness was also restricted to the range of the array.
After looking at the lich curiously for a while, Li Qing asked:
"I'm curious, what can I gain if I kill you?"
The lich's head remained motionless and unresponsive.
Li Qing smiled, stretched out his finger, and cast a second-level spell of detect thoughts on the lich's head, which could listen to the superficial thoughts of the recipient.
Under normal circumstances, this kind of spell would not be effective against a sixth-level transcendent, especially one with a magic profession.
But under the reinforcement of his divinity, and then strengthened by a level in the divine domain, the effect of this spell becomes very powerful.
In addition, the lich was in a weak and imprisoned state at the moment, and its resistance to this spell was extremely low.
When the spell was cast, pieces of information appeared in Li Qing's mind.
After interpreting this information, Li Qing frowned. There was no nutritious information in it.
However, some things can be inferred from these meaningless information. First of all, the lich is now conscious, but just doesn't want to communicate with Li Qing.
In addition, this lich is not afraid of death, because he does have a life box, and it is placed in the divine domain of an undead scourge lord he is loyal to, so it is absolutely safe at this stage.
"You are so confident, no wonder there is no reaction!"
Li Qing pinched his chin, staring at the lich's head with burning eyes, feeling a slight headache.
He really couldn't do anything to this lich.
It is easy to kill the lich in front of you, but you cannot do anything about the lich's consciousness.
It's not that the lich's life box technique is invincible, it's mainly because his strength is too weak. If he had legendary level strength, with the help of divine power and the power of the divine domain, he could lock the location of the lich's life box through the lich's consciousness.
Even if he has a deeper understanding of the rules, he can directly attack the original body's life box through the connection between the clone and the original body.
But unfortunately, he was not strong enough and could not do any of the above, so he could only sigh in despair.
But it seems too pity to just kill him like this.
After thinking for a while, he said:
"We can make a deal. You order your men to continue attacking the city until they are all dead. Then I will let you go safely."
There was an obvious fluctuation on the lich's head, which then quickly disappeared.
Li Qing saw that something was going to happen, pointed to the sky and said loudly:
"I swear by the Lord of the Undead outside this dimension. If I break my promise, my soul will be taken away by the Lord of the Undead."
The soul fire in the eye sockets of the lich's head flashed and lit up, and a weak will sounded in his ears:
"The deal is done!"
Li Qing smiled slightly:
"Well, contact your subordinates. Once the deal is done, I will let you go."
"You need to unlock the imprisonment array!"
Li Qing shook his head:
"No, you just need to order your subordinates to come and rescue you. You don't need to cooperate with the command."
The lich was silent for a while, then replied:
"Can."
"Attack in one hour."
Just after he finished speaking, Li Qing suddenly paused, then his ears moved slightly, and then a smile appeared on his face. He turned to the lich and said:
"Half an hour will be enough."
"Also, you can try to take in the remaining troops of another Terror Knight."
Just received the news that Dragon Guard and Dragon Magic have intercepted the Terror Knight and killed him with the cooperation of Lava Crystal Dragon.
Without the supreme commander, theoretically the highest-ranking lich nearby could take in these undead.
But the lich denied it:
"I can't do it now. You have to release me before I can do it."
Li Qing thought about it and shook his head:
"That's fine."
When facing such evil undead, it is never too careful. After all, what the lich says is right as long as you oppose it.
After leaving the confinement room, the soul fire in the lich's skull's eye sockets shook slightly, and there was nothing else unusual.
Li Qing left the confinement room and came to the gate of Gaoyu, just in time to see Long Shou flying over and taking out a ball of light and handing it to him.
You don't need to ask to know that this is the spoils left behind by the Terror Knight.
After receiving the spoils, Li Qing patted Long Shou on the shoulder:
"The enemy will attack again later, be prepared."
Long Shou nodded, spread his wings and flew into the air towards the north city wall.
"Roar!"
A deafening dragon roar was heard from the direction of the east city wall. The next second, the outside of the city wall quickly became brighter, and the red dragon flames could not even be blocked by the 15-meter-high city wall.
Li Qing did not pay attention to the subsequent battle. At this time, he had returned to the high tower of the divine realm and opened the spoils of the Terror Knight, revealing a bone treasure chest.
After the routine prayer, he opened the treasure chest and found only four cards inside.
It is worth mentioning that this treasure chest not only contains the spoils of the Terror Knight, but also the spoils of all his dead subordinates, because they have been defeated at this time, the battle is over, and now they are just cleaning up the battlefield.
Although the number was small, Li Qing was not disappointed at all, but was full of expectations.
The first card: Hero's combat skill "Terrible Blow", the hero locks on the target and charges for five seconds, causing 200% basic damage to the target + 50% huge damage per second, with the special effects of guaranteed hit, penetration, and armor-breaking.
Note: Terror Strike is limited to throwing and polearms.
Note: The attack distance depends on the weapon type and the thrower's strength.
"nice one!"
Li Qing's first reaction was to give this thing to Long Shou.
Dragon Mage is a Dragon Vein Warlock, so he doesn't need that. Dragon Guard is a Dragon Vein Fighter. The key is that there are no powerful heroic skills except dragon breath, which is just right for him to use.
Then open the second card.
Advanced Death Reincarnation Card: 3/3, use on a dead target to transform it into an undead.
Note: The upper limit of transformation is below level ten and it must be a living thing.
"Well……"
Li Qing was stunned for a moment. He was really surprised that this thing could come up.
Take out the undead's signature spell card.
This cannot be said to be useless, but it is too useless for him, and he does not want to go the route of a necromancer.
Shaking his head, he looked at the third card.
Troops, Death Knight Upgrade Card * 100, can upgrade any third-level or above knight troop to a fifth-level horror template Death Knight.
…
The Death Knight...is not an undead, but a knight who has mastered the power of death, just like a necromancer who has mastered the spell of necromancy.
This set of *100 is a direct upgrade card, not a promotion card, but it has some minor additional conditions.
But the requirements are not high, just a third-level knight.
but……
"Death knight!"
Li Qing rubbed his forehead and felt a headache.
Although the Death Knight is not an undead, if he has mastered the power of death for a long time, what is the difference between him and the undead after a long time?
Of course, there is no good or bad power, only good or bad people who use power.
However, when a group of fifth-level death knights gather in the divine realm, the power of death gathers and over time, a land of death will be formed. Over time, the breath of death will spread and slowly affect the divine realm.
We can't consume a lot of energy every time to purify.
Of course, these are not big problems. As long as the Death Knight is strong enough, he can purify it. It doesn't matter if he spends a little more energy.
The main thing is that there are only 100 of these things and there is no way to replenish them. That's embarrassing.
"Forget it, let's just sell it."
He doesn't like the undead. There are always some war lords who don't care about them, and some war lords or heroes even specialize in becoming necromancers.
"The last one, give me something good!"
Li Qing held the last card with both hands and rubbed it vigorously. He rubbed it more than ten times in one breath and opened it. A dazzling golden light made him look happy.
Hero Skill Point Card Pack: Contains three Hero Skill Point Cards.
Note: The upper limit of use must not exceed LV5 hero skills and must not be added on top of extraordinary talents.
"good!"
Li Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
Put the treasure away and don't use it for the time being, and wait until you defeat the army under the command of the lich hero.
Twenty minutes later, the confused troops of the lich regrouped at the lich's call and launched an attack on the city.
At this time, An Erqiu and his men had gathered most of their forces and concentrated them on the north wall to defend the city.
Long Shou and Long Fa did not take action. Instead, they both stayed above the city wall. Whenever there were too many corpses, they would burn them all with a few blasts of dragon breath.
The lava crystal dragon is roaming around the southern city wall and the wild areas on the east and west sides, using its fiery force field to burn the corpses and bones of the undead on the battlefield, as well as the remaining aura of death.
Li Qing had experimented with this a long time ago. The corpses of the undead were not worth decomposing or synthesizing, so he was too lazy to move them and just burned them directly.
There was no technical content in the battle. After all, one side was just there to die. There wasn't even a hero to be seen. They probably all ran away.
If an enemy comes, we will fight him; if a flood comes, we will block it with earth. Even if the city walls are full of new recruits, we can still suppress the undead army head-on with our high-quality weapons and equipment.
Once they are exhausted after a long battle, they will retreat immediately, and the second team will be replaced by new recruits who have been waiting for a long time, and this cycle will repeat.
There are four such teams of recruits, which are replaced back and forth.
In the last row, there is a team of fully armed Dragon Scale Heavy Infantry and elite Mo Dao soldiers, mixed with a large number of heavy infantry as the last line of defense. There is no need to be afraid even if the recruits cannot hold on in turns.
If a soldier is injured, retreat immediately.
If someone dies suddenly, the body will be thrown under the city wall at the back and burned to prevent it from being awakened by undead spells.
As for big guys like abominations and resurrected beasts, they will first be fired upon by catapults and crossbows. It would be best if they can be killed. If not, the dragon guards and dragon mages will deal with them to ensure that the undead cannot attack the city walls.
In four whole hours, nearly 20,000 undead died under the city wall. The corpses piled up like mountains, and piles of rotten and hateful corpses blocked the city wall like small hills.
After completing the killing, Li Qing took out the lich's head from the confinement room, specially prepared a skull frame to attach the lich's head to, and then escorted it out of the country with courtesy.
He didn't dare to do anything small, because the oath he made was to the Lord of the Undead, who was in the chaotic wind outside the plane. If he dared to break his oath, the Lord of the Undead would immediately tear open the crystal wall of the plane and capture him.
Only by swearing in this way would the lich believe him and cooperate.
Since the lich's true form cannot be killed, just try to squeeze out the maximum value from it.
For Li Qing, the greatest value of this lich is the nearly 20,000 undead army, which allows his subordinates to upgrade comprehensively.
The battle is over, and a ball of loot light condenses in the center of the battlefield.
Li Qing took out the light ball and notified the Lava Crystal Dragon that it could come and clean up the battlefield.
Return to the tower and open the loot.
Without the most crucial hero, he had no hope of getting the loot.
However, after opening the loot chest, Li Qing was a little surprised by the items inside.
There are only three cards, one of which is the same as the Terror Knight's Trophy, and a High-Level Death Reincarnation Card that can be used three times.
A unit upgrade card pack *50.
A Hero Skill Card Pack*2.
There were fewer things, but contrary to his expectation, they were more practical than the Terror Knight's spoils.
This way, he has five extra hero skill points.
Including the previous surplus, there are now a total of 70 troop upgrade cards, which can immediately create 70 fifth-level troops.
After cleaning up the battlefield and counting everything, An Erqiu handed over a list.
Li Qing glanced at it and nodded:
"good!"
The losses were not great, with a total loss of only about 600, most of whom were new recruits. Compared with the results of the battle, the loss was definitely negligible.
All the surviving recruits can be promoted more than once, from zero-level recruits to second-level senior soldiers in one go.
All of the more than 400 veteran soldiers who were originally stuck at the second level can now be promoted to the next level. A small number of those who fought bravely can even be promoted a second time, directly to the fourth level.
After the inventory was completed, peace returned to the Divine Domain Castle.
This was the case for Li Qing, but for the other apprentices, even after the war was over, they had not calmed down and were still immersed in this battle, which was considered to be an ultra-large-scale battle for them.
Everyone gathered in the bar in the trade zone, surrounding the two heroes who had participated in the battle and commanded during the day, as well as An Erqiu and Xie Zhu, and enthusiastically discussed the battle that took place during the day.
Li Qing did not participate in this battle. At this time, he was outside the north city gate, sitting on the top of the city wall. Under the city wall lay a lava crystal dragon. The uncontrollable high temperature had caused the ground under the wall to begin to melt, and even a dent had been melted on the surface of the wall.
But neither the man nor the dragon cared about these. Li Qing lay on the floor of the city wall with his hands clasped, looking up at the deep night sky like an abyss, and talked to himself.
