Chapter 108: The Conquered Divine Realm
After rubbing his hands and saying the usual prayer, Li Qing opened the bone treasure chest.
However, the moment he opened it, he heard a faint scream in his ears. Then he sensed something and looked up quickly, his pupils a little dazed.
At that moment, he seemed to feel the existence of the Eternal Divine Tree.
No, it's not like that, it's real.
Just at that moment, he suddenly realized that he had gained some favor points from the Eternal Divine Tree, a reward for killing alien heroes .
This means that although the plane is shrouded in the winds of chaos, the power of the Tree of Eternity is still affecting it.
"The Eternal Tree gives one point of favor, and the Academy gives one more point. This means that killing a Scourge hero will give you two points of favor..."
Li Qing held his chin with his hand, ready to make something happen.
"If we have the chance to encounter a lone Scourge hero again, we must not let him go."
One Scourge hero doesn’t give much, but what if you can kill a few more?
Or maybe there will be a chance to do something big in the future and destroy a Scourge Lord?
Li Qing thought this idea was feasible.
Li Qing smacked his lips, lowered his head, and opened the bone treasure chest, which contained three cards.
A four-star hero job transfer card that transfers a subordinate into a potential four-star hero.
A unit upgrade card pack, usable 50 times.
A hero skill point card pack containing 2 additional hero skill points.
"good!"
From the initial surprise and uneasiness to the current calmness, Li Qing has become accustomed to this new way of cheating.
Compared to other people's rewards which are randomly awarded and may not be suitable for you, his treasure chest is completely accurate. You will get what you want most. They are all very practical and it is really amazing.
Put away the hero job transfer cards and class upgrade card packs.
I will use the upgrade card packs myself later, and I will probably sell the hero job transfer cards later, or exchange them with others for what they want in two years.
As for the two hero skill points, they were naturally used first.
No need to think about it, just put all your points on the Divine Body and upgrade it to Divine Body LV3.
Divine Body LV3: Constitution +200%, Endurance +200%, Recovery +200%, Resistance +40%, Immune to Weakness, Immune to Fatigue, Immune to Disease.
Expertise +1: Constitution +10%, Endurance +10%, Recovery +10%.
Expertise +2: Constitution +20%, Endurance +20%, Recovery +20%.
Expertise +3: Constitution +40%, Endurance +40%, Recovery +40%.
There was nothing particularly strong about the specialties of LV2 and LV3, so he just chose the same one honestly to enhance his physical qualities overall.
After completing the selection, his Constitution increases by an additional 270%, Endurance increases by an additional 270%, Recovery increases by an additional 270%, as well as 40% high resistance, and immunity to the three negative states of fatigue, disease and weakness.
After completing the selection, Li Qing came to the lava crystal dragon specifically and found that he no longer felt much standing within its fiery high-temperature force field.
At least you won’t feel anything in the short term.
You can also stand next to the Lava Crystal Dragon for a certain period of time without any protection.
But it can't be too long. He measured it specifically and found that he can only stay there for seven or eight minutes before he feels hot all over. If he stays there for a few more minutes, he will get burned.
All in all, you can't stay with the Lava Crystal Dragon for more than ten minutes.
The team did not stay in this camp for long. After setting fire to the abandoned bone buildings, the team continued on their way.
Continue upstream along the river, but don't go to the right side of the river. Just go north along the left side of the river.
We didn't turn until we reached the end where the river entered the mountains.
But soon after turning, Xie Jin, who was serving as a scout, suddenly sent a message asking the team to stop.
"Are you saying that there are undead heroes attacking a divine domain ahead?"
Li Qing took out the map and spread it on the table. He pointed at one of the locations with his fingers and said in surprise:
"Have they not put away the Divine Domain yet?"
The map did show a divine castle. He had seen it when he passed by and joined Cao Wenyuan and others in attacking the snakeman city that had no great wizard in charge.
The castle is located on the edge of the mountains, not far from the river entrance, and has a good location.
No one knows when the Lord of the Divine Realm unfolded the Divine Realm, and he hasn’t been able to put it away yet.
According to what Xie Jin discovered, a Scourge hero led tens of thousands of undead to tightly surround the Divine Realm Castle .
Li Qing pondered for a moment, summoned the dragon eagle and sat on it, then flew forward under the protection of the dragon guard and dragon magic.
There were too many undead, and Xie Jin couldn't get through. He was too far from the city and didn't know how the battle was going. He had to go and see for himself whether the city had been captured.
The giant eagle flew high into the sky and circled behind the mountain where the castle was.
Before they got close, several unknown undead bone birds with a wingspan of four or five meters swooped over.
Although it is called a bone bird, its body is actually covered with a layer of feathers made of the air of death. Its wings are also covered with a thick layer, and it looks like there are feathers when it flaps its wings.
There is a little bit of combat power, but not much.
Long Shou drew out his sword and rushed forward, and with one sword he cut through the deathly aura that was wrapped around his body, causing his bones to separate and fall to the ground.
This thing is not strong, it mainly relies on quantity.
Li Qing ignored all this and quickly flew over the hill to see the Divine Realm Castle at the foot of the mountain.
This sight made him silent.
This divine domain has been breached. A total of three sections of the city wall have been smashed open by abominations or bone catapults. A large number of undead rushed to the gaps and fought with the defenders in the city. However, the human defenders in two of the gaps have been defeated. A ten-meter-tall abomination led a large number of undead into the city.
There were not enough strong people in the city to resist the abomination that was ten meters tall, so they could only fill the gap with human lives, but they couldn't stop it.
Li Qing saw that among these undead attacking the city, many were wearing imperial standard armor. They should be soldiers who died in the battle and were resurrected by the undead.
The city was in chaos. Many undead birds had broken through the archer's defenses and entered the city, specifically destroying and killing civilians.
Many apprentices who looked like professionals and heroes had given up their defenses and were climbing the mountain behind the castle, apparently preparing to escape by climbing over the hill behind the castle.
The central tower of the divine realm was still bright, but there were many undead birds circling around. From time to time, an undead bird could be seen swooping down, but was blocked by an invisible barrier.
"This divine realm is finished!"
Li Qing took a deep breath, turned around quickly, and said to An Erqiu and Xie Zhu as soon as he landed:
"Hurry up and get ready. I need the vanguard to launch an attack on the undead outside the city in five minutes."
An Erqiu also had a serious expression and said loudly:
"I'm ready and can start now."
"Then attack immediately!"
Then Li Qing came to the back of the team and found the lava crystal dragon about one kilometer behind the team and communicated with it.
Although it was probably too late, Li Qing ordered the attack without hesitation.
Save as many as possible.
The first to launch an attack was Long Fa who was hovering in the air. He broke through the interception of a large group of undead birds and entered above the undead army. After gathering his strength for a while, he breathed out a terrifying dragon breath.
From a distance, it looked like a stream of flames falling from the sky like a river bursting its banks, and the huge flames surged in all directions like a tide.
The undead on the ground ignited upon contact, instantly turning into a sea of fire.
Then Long Shou also rushed in and breathed out a breath of dragon.
Although its power and range are not as great as those of dragon magic, dragon breath is still dragon breath, and its power is much greater than the primary war spell magic lightning.
The ground forces were well prepared and advanced rapidly under the command of Anerqiu. The Dragon Vein Snake Mage Corps mixed in with them and continuously fired magic missiles to shoot down the undead birds that were flying towards them.
This undead hero is different from the undead heroes Li Qing had encountered before. He has a large number of undead bird air force.
Fortunately, his long-range power is strong enough, and there are more than 500 mages alone, which can easily block it.
Just like the previous replica, everyone lined up and pushed forward head-on.
The undead were simply unable to resist. The main forces of this undead hero were all on the front line attacking the city. Even if they noticed Li Qing and became alert and began to mobilize, it would be too late in the short term.
The key is that even if all the main forces are mobilized, they still cannot win.
At this time, Li Qing's overall strength has far surpassed these undead heroes. He has too many elite troops. The number of infantry archers and cavalry above level four adds up to more than a thousand. This is a super elite force that other war lord apprentices dare not even think about.
Add to that two super five-star heroes, Long Shou and Long Shou, and a high-level real dragon, what can they use to stop it?
He is just a Scourge Hero, not a Scourge Lord. Like them, he is just a reserve, not a formal Scourge Lord.
Destroy the enemy with overwhelming force and push forward head-on.
After defeating the Undead Hero reserve and defense forces, the main force of the Undead that had entered the city began to withdraw.
Inside the city, all the apprentices and heroes in the divine realm breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this scene. Many of them sat directly on the ground, unable to help but covering their faces and crying.
Feeling lucky to have survived the disaster.
"Which big guy is coming to support? Is he the apprentice of a five-star mentor?"
"I'm not sure, but it should be that only the apprentices of a five-star mentor have such strong strength."
"It was so thrilling. I almost died here."
"Yeah, this is the first time I've been so close to death. After the fight is over I have to find a big guy to give me a ride and leave here. I can't stay here any longer."
"I want to leave too. I can't stay here any longer."
Inside the Divine Realm Castle, the Divine Realm Lord Zhuang Luping sat on the ground, but his face did not look very happy.
Although I survived by chance, it was only temporary.
I can survive this time, but what should I do next time?
It will take him another three and a half months to collect his divine domain. If any other Scourge hero discovers and attacks during this period, he will surely die.
Don't doubt whether it is possible or not, it is at least 99% possible.
There are only seven Scourge Lords who have descended on the plane, and they are scattered throughout the plane, so it is rare to encounter them. However, there are many Scourge Heroes who have descended, and you will definitely encounter them in three months.
Once you encounter...
"It can only be this way!"
He looked around dejectedly and muttered to himself.
Outside the city, the undead hero finally called back the main force of the siege when the sudden human army attacked the center.
But that didn't change anything.
At this time, the lava crystal dragon behind had rushed over and crashed into the tide of undead. A breath of dragon from the upper true dragon turned the tallest and largest abomination into a huge fireball.
And then, nothing happened.
As long as there is no way to stop the Lava Crystal Dragon, defeat is only a matter of time.
This group of undead only held out for more than twenty minutes, and only collapsed when the Lava Crystal Dragon breathed out its fourth breath.
Then Li Qing saw that the hero of this undead army was a short skeleton mage who was only about 1.6 meters tall. He was intercepted by the Dragon Mage and the Dragon Guard, and was forcibly killed with the cooperation of the Lava Crystal Dragon.
The three of them are now cooperating more and more skillfully. The dragon guard intercepts head-on, and the dragon magician restricts it with spells, and when the lava crystal dragon rushes up, it will be crushed into bone powder in a few strokes.
If you can't win, you can't win. No matter how hard you try, it's useless.
Once the Scourge hero died, the Undead army fell apart, with several Undead heroes splitting up into several groups to escape.
An Erqiu led a large army in pursuit, and eventually he and Long Fa and his men intercepted one group each, while the rest fled into the darkness and disappeared without a trace.
After cleaning up the battlefield, Li Qing came to the breached divine domain and saw the city gate open. A war lord apprentice walked out with his men.
He clasped his fists and bowed to Li Qing:
"Thank you for your support, Excellency. You saved us all."
Li Qing accepted their greetings directly, which was what he deserved.
After that, he asked:
"What should you do in this situation now?"
After a pause, he asked again:
"How long will it take for your divine domain to be put away?"
The leading man said in a low voice:
"Two and a half months left."
"oh!"
Li Qing shrugged and spread his hands.
"Sorry, I can't stay here that long."
The man forced a smile and waved his hand:
"I understand. I have a suggestion here. Your Excellency may consider it."
"explain!"
"I am ready to give up this divine domain and am willing to give you all the resources in it. In return, please take us away from here."
"ah……"
Li Qing was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but couldn't say anything for a while.
Giving up the divine domain means giving up the identity of a war lord.
Once the God's Domain is abandoned and destroyed, he will automatically lose his status as a war lord, and will no longer have a God's Domain, and can only become an ordinary hero.
No matter how badly a war lord does, he is still a war lord, and his status is naturally higher than that of a hero.
As the saying goes: It is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality, but it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance.
It is difficult for ordinary people to make this decision, as it means an instant drop in status.
However, the condition of the war lord in front of him has become extremely bad. Unless Li Qing stays here to protect him for two and a half months, he will definitely not be able to withstand the attack of any Scourge hero.
Even in his current situation, with three holes in the city wall and his army suffering heavy casualties, he doesn't even need a Scourge hero to take action. He may not be able to withstand any large wave of wandering undead.
Giving up is a wise choice, at least you can save your life.
Li Qing didn't say anything, but nodded:
"If you give up the divine realm, then you can enter my divine realm first."
The troops paused outside the city, while Dai Lirong and others worked with the subordinates of Zhuang Luping, the lord of this divine realm, to dismantle the buildings within the divine realm.
There are not many good things in his divine domain. The most valuable ones are a divine domain farm and a divine domain warehouse, both of which have only one level unlocked.
In addition, there are about five thousand human civilians temporarily living in the Divine Domain Farm.
