Chapter 133: Conditions for Promotion to Official War Lord
An Erqiu's template is almost identical to Long Shou's, except that he only has 5+7=12 hero skill points and his three talents are not maxed out, so his strength is slightly inferior to Long Shou.
However, the key bloodline talents of the upper space dragon clan are no different, because the rank is only fifth level, and the half-dragon transformation specialty is only level one. The talents and specialties such as dragon transformation and space force field that can only be obtained after advancing to the sixth level are not available for the time being.
But it’s not a big problem. There are still a lot of Scourge heroes everywhere on the surface. You just need to spawn a few more.
There are even four Scourge Lords. If he could find a chance to kill one, one would be enough to meet his and Xie Zhu's hero skill point needs.
After the promotion, Li Qing sent him and Long Shoulong Faquan out to look for lone Scourge heroes, or apprentices or heroes hiding in various places.
If you can save them, you should save them. After all, they are all of the same race.
If he has strong subordinates, he won't have to do everything himself as the lord.
With the three of them doing the work, Li Qing could free up his hands to continue digging underground.
But he still remembered that there were a large number of various rare resources in the underground wizard city-state, especially the refined gold and mithril that he urgently needed.
In order to complete the excavation faster, he transformed into an ancient dragon, and with his huge dragon claws, the hard rock was easily dug out like mud.
With a scoop of his claws, a stone as big as a villa was dug out. The effect was very fast.
In addition, the Lava Crystal Dragon was called over to help, and several special-made ramming machines were constantly crashing, so the excavation efficiency was very fast.
In less than a month, nearly one square kilometer of space had been dug out.
After clearing the rubble, they found some half-dead souls in some cracks underground. Most of them were ghosts, which were the kind of undead without physical form, and they were cleared away.
He was having a lot of fun digging here. After resting for almost a month, the surface coalition and the Scourge Lord began to test each other again, and it seemed that they wanted to fight again.
In addition, An Yi Qiu and his team also discovered another descendant of the God of Calamity on the other side of the plane. He was fighting with four other joint teams.
Among the four teams, two are alliances of apprentices under ordinary mentors, and two teams are from the five-star mentor Xiao Zhenqian, including the team of mentor Xiao Zhenqian's chief Wu Ma Yun.
An Yi Qiu just observed from a distance and did not go close to disturb them.
According to An Yi Qiu's observation, they seemed to have been in a standoff for a long time and had fought several times. The battlefield between the Allied Forces' Divine Domain Castle and the Undead Camp was littered with broken corpses.
These four teams now have a combined force of around 230,000, and it is estimated that there were more than 300,000 troops in their heyday.
There is only one Scourge Lord on the opposite side, plus some Scourge heroes. The current scale of the undead is still over one million, which means that the strength of this Scourge Lord at his peak is definitely as high as one million, four hundred thousand, and five hundred thousand. It seems that he is stronger than the Scourge Lord on the other side of the Snake King City.
Seeing that both sides are being cautious, it seems that a decisive battle to determine the winner will not take place in the near future.
After An Erqiu reported the news to Li Qing, Li Qing instructed him not to worry about it.
Both sides have fought to this point, and it is not appropriate for him to get involved. This is the tacit unspoken rule.
Actively asking for support is just helping others; if others don't ask for support, you won't get any benefit from it if you go along.
We can talk about it only after the winner is decided.
It would be fine if the human coalition won, but only if the Lord of the Scourge God won would he have a reason to take over.
There were seven Scourge Lords in total. Li Qing killed one underground, and Miss Gu killed two.
Engage in a battle with Wu Ma Yun's team.
There are two teams confronting Miss Gu, which means there is a Calamity Lord in some corner of the plane, and Li Qing's target is this one.
But what surprised him was that after spending two whole months traveling around the entire plane fragment, they still did not find the last Scourge Lord.
"Could it be that the last Scourge Lord has also fled underground?"
It is difficult to search underground, as there is no complete map and the highly mobile reconnaissance capabilities of our men cannot be utilized.
After some consideration, Li Qing decided to give up the search.
Let’s dig up the Mage City-State first.
If there is a chance in these two big battlefields, he will go and grab a wave. If there is no chance, he will kill the wandering Scourge heroes to collect some hero skill points, and then stay alive until the Undead Wind leaves. Anyway, he will not lose anything.
In the following days, Li Qing went back and forth between underground and the surface.
After digging stones for a while, when his men find the wandering hero, they will lead the troops to surround and kill him.
He and several of his men transformed into half-dragons, or transformed into giant dragons and swooped down from the sky to behead the Scourge heroes, while the troops surrounded and killed the undead as a training exercise.
Compared to the difficulty of dealing with these Scourge heroes in the past, it is now more than ten times easier.
Now he is completely a super model level existence. No matter whether it is the human war lord apprentice or the disaster lord in this plane fragment, their strength is not on the same level as him.
He doesn't even need to transform into a dragon, and has never transformed into an ancient dragon in public. In his half-dragon state, he can easily defeat thousands of enemies and behead the heroes of natural disasters .
Without the command of the Scourge hero, the remaining tens of thousands of undead were in disarray. Li Qingte only mobilized troops below level five to fight and specialized in training them.
In the fourth month, Li Qing had dug the underground world to the location of the Mage City-State and could already see the city-state buildings that had been smashed into ruins.
At the same time, all the Scourge heroes that could be found on the surface have been wiped out.
A total of 8 Scourge heroes, including a combined team of 4 Scourge heroes.
A total of 18 hero skill points and 220 troop upgrade cards are obtained.
A war magic scroll: a second-level war magic soul-gathering technique, which has the effect of reawakening the undead who died on the battlefield. The number and quality of the undead corpses determine the scale and strength of the awakened undead.
A Death Knight job advancement card pack *200.
A Lich class advancement card pack.
Three Advanced Death and Reincarnation card packs.
A divine building: the Skeleton Pit. Throwing a corpse into the pit will summon a skeleton with the same strength as the corpse.
This divine building, the Skull Pit, directly used up all the energy of a loot chest. After this thing came out of it, nothing else came out.
In addition, there were several undead-related trophies that he could not use.
To be honest, after counting the spoils on his body, Li Qingzhen wondered whether he should train a professional undead hero in his divine domain. There were just too many good things for the undead to use.
Adding all these things together can completely create a war lord apprentice with good strength .
Any war lord apprentice who changes his career now can immediately gain strength that is no less than that of a five-star mentor apprentice.
After all the lone Scourge heroes were eliminated, Li Qing paid attention to the current confrontation between the two large teams. They had fought more than one battle in the past few months, with wins and losses, but no decisive victory or defeat was determined.
Both sides were very cautious and did not dare to make a full commitment. They just kept testing the bottom line of each other's strength and looking for opportunities.
It is worth mentioning that Li Qing helped them a lot by killing all the wandering Scourge heroes on the surface of the plane, which means that the two Scourge Lords’ troops will not receive any new support.
It also means that if the two battlefields decide the outcome and the human side wins, this training may end early.
After all, all the Scourge Lords are dead, so there is no point in keeping the Scourge Wind around.
The underground world, the former site of the wizard city-state.
After their digging day and night, a large number of fallen rocks were broken, hollowed out and moved away, and the entire underground space became empty again.
At this time, they had already dug out nearly half of the entire underground space and had found the remains of several wizard towers. In total, they had found more than 300 kilograms of refined gold and hundreds of kilograms of mithril, a large number of magic gems, and other precious magic materials.
One Iron Golem requires ten kilograms of refined gold and more than three kilograms of mithril, which means that what has been mined now is enough to make thirty Iron Golems.
Of course, there is no need to keep it. It can be made on site while being excavated.
Most of the processes are done on-site outside, and only the most core and complex processes use the palm space.
Since awakening and mastering the original power of space, Li Qing found that his control over space has undergone a qualitative change.
The magic circle itself is a reflection of the mastery of spatial sense. How to distribute extremely complex magic runes in an orderly manner within a small space is a great test of the artist's sense of space.
When Li Qing's sense of space instantly reached the peak, coupled with his own super talents in soul and mental power, the combination of many aspects instantly transformed him from a pseudo-genius into a true genius.
However, no matter how talented you are, it is still not as good as using cheats. So although I can make these myself now, most of the time I still use the palm space cheat to make them quickly.
Only when I have free time will I try to make it myself.
Whether it is a golem, a war spell, or a magic pattern construct, I have tried to make them myself.
Continue digging holes while practicing.
About half a month later, they dug to the vicinity of the original core wizard tower and found a large number of precious magic materials and some lost information among the wreckage.
Although he had already obtained the most precious inheritance materials as spoils of war, there were still a large number of magic books in it.
Including various subject books, various magic materials, various notes of experience of senior wizards, etc.
Although many books were destroyed when the ground collapsed, many were preserved.
This is good stuff.
If there were enough and complete information like this, he could open an academy in his own divine domain to teach all kinds of magical knowledge and train his own wizards.
He is just a native wizard. It is too difficult to train him, but he has a large number of dragon vein snake people.
These dragon vein snake people are either level five or level six, and have enough foundation. He does not expect all of them to become true great wizards. He only needs to teach them some additional functional spells besides bloodline spells.
For example, mage armor, grease, web, flash, teleport, flight, various control spells, BUFF enhancement spells and so on.
When combined with their many violent innate spells, their combat effectiveness will definitely soar.
Not to mention that when he unfolds his halo, his subordinates will automatically have spells like flash and teleport. The range of his halo is so small that it is impossible for it to cover a large battlefield. In a melee, he has to move at any time, and it is impossible for him to stay in one place for a long time as a BUFF tool.
They still have to rely on themselves. What they know can be used at any time.
After the main part of the entire Mage City-State was excavated, the rest was not excavated anymore, as it was all empty land with no resources anyway.
However, it is worth mentioning that he hollowed out this area which is nearly seven or eight kilometers long, four or five kilometers wide and about four kilometers high. These billions of tons of rock are not all stone. There are a large number of other mineral elements, including a large amount of iron ore, which were all decomposed by him in batches and synthesized into cubes and stored.
He has no shortage of stones in his divine domain now, and will not have a shortage for a long time.
Even if he is promoted to a formal war lord in the future, there will be no shortage of divine domain expansion dozens of times. This time he has gotten too much.
A small part of them is piled up on one side of the divine domain, and most of them are on the third floor of the divine domain ranch.
He will not use it now, but when this experience is over and he returns to the academy, he will sacrifice most of what can be sacrificed to seek the favor of the Eternal Tree.
Then during this training he killed a large number of heroes, and now the total number of kills is 23, and he can obtain a full 46 points of favor from the Eternal Tree.
Even if it is not enough to be promoted to a formal war lord by then, it will be enough for him to greatly expand the area of the divine domain, increase the population limit, a large number of hero slots, and a large number of divine domain building slots to increase the foundation.
It is worth mentioning that these added foundations will determine the area and population limit of the divine domain after being promoted to a formal war lord in the future.
Because after being promoted to a war lord, the increased divine domain area, population limit, hero slots and divine domain building slots will all increase exponentially on the current basis.
The specific multiple is determined by the comprehensive potential when promoted to a formal war lord.
As apprentices are promoted to official war lords, the Eternal Tree will have a comprehensive potential score, which includes personal potential, potential of heroes under your command, potential of troops under your command, and special potential of troops under your command. The higher the score, the greater the bonus after promotion.
The minimum bonus is 100% and there is no upper limit for the maximum.
Theoretically, it can be multiplied tenfold.
Although I have never heard of anyone whose potential can be increased tenfold in history, this is indeed the theory.
Of course, not having heard of it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. After all, his knowledge is limited. Moreover, what the true geniuses get when they are promoted and receive the gifts from the Eternal Tree are all secrets, and they certainly won't talk about it everywhere.
The size of the divine domain, population limit, number of hero slots, etc. do not directly determine potential.
But if the divine domain is large enough and has a larger population, this in itself can enhance the potential, which is itself a manifestation of strong potential.
It is also worth mentioning that the maximum period for a war lord apprentice to be promoted to a full war lord is ten years.
It’s not that you can’t be promoted if you’ve worked for more than ten years, but if you work for more than ten years, no matter how talented you are, how much you have accumulated, or how high your potential is, you can only be promoted according to the minimum standards.
That is to say, the upper limit of the bonus is fixed at 100%.
Even if you are promoted by force with divine grace, it is still the minimum standard.
Of course, this is not a problem for Li Qing. This training is only three years long. Even if it exceeds the time limit, it will only be four years. There are still six years that are enough for him to accumulate.
