Chapter 141: The training is about to end and the teacher's message
If there are not enough materials, then there is nothing we can do. Without sufficient materials, many fixed magic patterns cannot be drawn.
Maybe in the future when I become more powerful, I can choose to replace it with other materials, or even design new magic patterns myself, but I definitely don’t have that level now.
There is no need to expect to find other materials as substitutes now. This plane itself is short of resources, otherwise the natives of this plane would not have lost the tradition.
However, Li Qing did not sit idly by. He asked Xie Zhu, Xie Jin and other men to ask other apprentices to see if they had stored these materials.
As for the thirteen first-level power magic patterns on hand, I will keep them for the time being. I haven't figured out what to do with them yet.
The main thing is that this thing cannot be reused after loading, which means it is useless.
And he was not prepared to form a unit of constructed knights, so it would be a waste if he used them.
The so-called Constructed Knights are a type of extraordinary military force in large numbers in the hands of war lords.
There are two training methods. One method is to select a group of soldiers that have been promoted to the fifth level, and then equip each of them with a set of magic pattern equipment to comprehensively enhance , forcing their combat effectiveness to cross the threshold from the fifth level to the sixth level, and then additionally equip them with more sophisticated weapons and equipment to artificially upgrade their combat effectiveness to the sixth level.
This type of construct knight cannot continue to advance, and his strength is capped by his equipment and magic pattern constructs.
And there is a problem with this type of constructed knight, that is, generally speaking, the upper limit of the magic patterns that can be carried is not very high. Generally speaking, the standard is at least 50 or above, and the higher the better.
The natives themselves have a low carrying capacity, so if you want to train a Construct Knight, you generally have to be prepared from the beginning.
Generally, the upper limit of the number of soldiers converted from white names is less than 50.
Only the green-named converted soldiers can carry more than 50 soldiers, which means that if you want to train construct knights, you must prepare a large number of excellent population conversion soldiers at the beginning, then work hard to upgrade them to level five, load the constructs, equip them with excellent weapons, and powerful war mounts.
Yes, a Construct Knight is a knight, so of course he has a mount, and it is a very powerful war mount.
For example, a warhorse with Warcraft bloodline, or a direct Warcraft mount.
These war mounts can also be loaded with magic runes for enhancement. The stronger the bloodline, the more magic runes can be loaded.
Of course, if you don't choose the Construct Knight route, but only the Construct Warrior route, you don't need to prepare a war mount.
The second training method is to go in the professional direction.
Select professionals, teach them various combat skills, and then carefully train and upgrade them. Once they reach level five or above, you can start preparing for magic pattern construction.
Because they are professionals, unlike other types of soldiers who have a level cap, they can upgrade to level six or above on their own.
Moreover, the professionals are initially equivalent to blue names or above. If they have bloodlines , they can also awaken the bloodlines and have higher talents. The upper limit of their construct carrying capacity is at least 100 or above, and the excellent ones are over 150+.
Think about it, with a rank above level six and a higher magic pattern carrying limit, plus higher intelligence and the ability to learn combat skills, isn't this stronger than a constructed knight who was promoted from a soldier?
But this route has a problem that cannot be ignored, that is, professionals have independent consciousness, their loyalty cannot be guaranteed, and it is difficult to make them face death on the battlefield.
The soldiers of the Divine Realm will go to their deaths without even frowning as long as you give the order.
Professionals can't do this. If you ask them to die, they will refuse. If you ask them to perform a mission that is too dangerous, they will bargain.
Of course, there are professionals who absolutely obey orders, but they are very rare.
Don't even mention using a contract to restrict them. They won't sign it. They're not stupid.
These are the advantages and disadvantages of the two types of construct knights. Most war lords choose the first type. Only very powerful war lords or thrones are qualified to select the second type of construct knights that meet the standards from a large number of professionals under their command.
Li Qing doesn't need to worry about this now, he has plenty of time to think about it.
And he also has a backup plan.
Dragon Vein Snakeman, although not a professional, is between a professional and a soldier, and can be promoted to the sixth level.
Perhaps he could create his own unique dragon construct warrior based on the dragon vein snake man.
Moreover, if he formed his own construct knight, he would definitely not use the basic first-order magic pattern construct. He would at least have a second-order basic magic pattern plus a set combination to exert the greatest power.
So, let’s practice our skills first at this stage.
He has so much to prepare.
The lack of materials does not prevent him from continuing to practice and improve his proficiency. Everyone can draw talismans in the void.
Moreover, now is a good time to display my talent. Since I lack materials, I can try to reassemble the structure of this magic pattern construct.
Using his extraordinary spatial talent, he disassembled the countless magic array structures inside this extremely complex magic pattern structure, and then reassembled them.
This is also an attempt to develop intermediate and advanced war magic that is unique to him.
Runes and magic circles are all common. Even super complex three-dimensional composite magic circles like magic pattern construction can be disassembled and reconstructed, so things like war magic are even easier to deal with.
Li Qing quickly became immersed in it and had a lot of fun taking it apart.
Time passed unknowingly, and when he himself had forgotten how much time had passed, An Erqiu suddenly came to remind him that the training was almost over.
Li Qing was stunned for a moment and said in surprise:
" So fast?"
"By the way, have you found the two disaster lords yet?"
An Erqiu shrugged and shook his head:
"I didn't find it. I searched all over the surface and underground world, but I couldn't find it."
Li Qing pinched his brows and asked:
"Have you searched other underground cities? Deep underground, what about the fourth and fifth floors?"
An Erqiu also shook his head:
"The other city-states underground have long been gone. They have been defeated by other teams. Even the Mind Flayer Kingdom on the fourth underground layer has been destroyed. The fifth underground layer is already at the edge of the plane."
"this……"
Li Qing was speechless. He was surprised that it had been hidden so well but still not found.
He looked at the time. There was only about a month left before the end of the training. It was almost over.
Although it's not perfect because we didn't find the two disaster lords who escaped, there's nothing we can do about it.
Those two disaster lords also have living self-awareness, and they are not lacking in ability and wisdom. They are intent on hiding, so it is normal that they cannot be found.
Li Qing stood up from the desk, walked to the window, stretched out his arms, twisted his body, and said to An Erqiu:
"Notify the fortress to prepare for cleaning up. The fortress will be demolished soon."
He did not intend to look for it again during the last month. There was no need for that. With so many subordinates and war lord apprentices searching for it for so long and still unable to find it, it was highly likely that he would not be able to find it if he went there himself.
Next, he began to withdraw his troops and call back his scattered men.
He came to the original snakeman castle and began to tear down the huge fortress.
The city walls and buildings were all collected and piled up on the third floor of the Divine Domain Ranch.
At present, the third floor of the Divine Domain Ranch has not been developed, but is used as a warehouse, specifically for storing such large items and stacking materials such as wood and stones.
It took a week to dismantle the fortress and relocate, then he put away the divine domain and brought his men to the surface, where he built a small temporary castle while waiting for the training to be over.
As time passed and the training was getting closer to its end, more and more War Lord Apprentices stopped doing anything and began to return here.
Perhaps they subconsciously learned that this was the safest place, so most of them gathered here. They withdrew their divine domain and their troops, and only gathered in the castle with a few followers.
Chat, summarize the experience, or exchange resources and information.
Some war lord apprentices or heroes who are certain that they cannot continue their studies and will graduate after this experience are discussing whether to form a team of adventurers and descend to the plane to adventure on their own.
They are certainly not qualified to open up plane channels on their own and can only enter channels opened up by other war lords.
You can choose to work for the owner of the plane channel, be employed, or work alone, but a portion of the materials you harvest must be handed over.
Of course, some apprentices also came to Li Qing and wanted to serve him.
Some powerful war lords would recruit some younger brothers to help them and do the dirty work.
Some specialize in logistics supply routes. The building slots in the divine domain are all farms and pastures, specializing in farming to provide food support for the superiors.
Some specialize in the craftsman route, specializing in training various craftsmen, from carpenters and stonemasons to various blacksmith shops, weapon forging, and so on.
There are also those who specialize in auxiliary warfare, training low-level troops, serving as part-time cannon fodder, cleaning up battlefields, suppressing uprisings and resistance in occupied areas, and so on.
In exchange, the superiors will provide them with shelter and upgrade resources.
If the superior is doing well, this is naturally not a big deal. For example, if he can completely occupy a plane with relatively abundant resources, any little bit that leaks out will be enough for his subordinates to feed themselves.
If the person in a higher position is not doing well, the subordinates will become a burden.
The resources paid to your subordinates do not mean that you will not get them just because you are not doing well. If you are not doing well, it means that you are not capable enough. You should give them what you deserve.
In addition, when the level of the divine domain reaches a certain level, such as when the lord of the divine domain is deified, it can be merged with other divine domains to form a united divine domain, which is also the prototype of the throne of God.
The huge kingdoms of some gods' thrones are formed by the merger of multiple large divine domains. Especially after the lord of a divine domain is deified, he can transform the divine domain into a kingdom. At this time, these younger brothers can become his subordinate gods.
Generally, after the Lord of the Divine Realm is deified, it is not a problem for him to allow his subordinates to be promoted to demigods.
Li Qing thought about it seriously, but finally refused.
In the future, I may recruit some younger brothers to share some of the pressure.
It’s too early now. I haven’t figured out my own situation yet, so why would I recruit new followers?
As the training got closer to the end, Li Qing could clearly feel that the aura of undead covering the plane was slowly beginning to fade, which meant that the wind of undead covering the plane was slowly leaving the plane.
Once the wind of undead is completely gone, this training will officially be over.
As the Wind of Undead departed, the aura of death gradually faded, and no new wild undead were born in the plane.
At the same time, when the Wind of Undeath was separated to a certain extent, the suppression on the Blackrock Spire of the academy began to weaken.
One day, all the apprentices suddenly discovered that they were able to communicate with the Blackrock Spire of the academy and use the Blackrock Spire to communicate across all planes.
The moment he was able to communicate, Li Qing received a call from Instructor Nie Yang. After Li Qing answered the call, the instructor immediately sent him a map marked with red dots and said to him:
"Hurry, the two Scourge Lords are hiding at this coordinate, underneath the edge of the plane."
Li Qing...
He looked at the mark on the virtual map and was speechless.
No wonder I couldn’t find it. How could I find it if it was hidden here?
However, he did not act immediately. Instead, he scratched his head and asked:
"Teacher, the wind of death is leaving now. Is it appropriate for me to take action now?"
Nie Yang immediately shook his head:
"As long as you haven't completely broken away from it, it's appropriate."
"Will the Scourge Master and other Scourge Lords interfere?"
This was what he was most worried about. It was right at the edge of the plane, and outside the crystal wall of the plane was the wind of the undead. There might be a Scourge Lord watching at the edge of the plane. If he killed a descendant of the Scourge right under their noses, he was afraid that this would displease the big guys inside and make them kill him.
Although he is very powerful now and can suppress the descendants of the Scourge head-on, he is still not enough for those powerful war lords.
Nie Yang could naturally see the worry of his beloved disciple, and assured him:
"Don't worry, you performed very well this time. You ranked first in this training level and have attracted the attention of the academy's top management. Even the realm master has heard of you. You can take action without worry. As long as they dare to take action, His Highness the Vice Dean will protect you."
"oh!"
Li Qing's eyes suddenly lit up. If that was the case, then there was nothing to be afraid of.
Without hesitation, he ordered his men to gather together and bring them all into the divine domain, then he soared into the air alone and flew towards the edge of the plane in the direction of the coordinates.
At the same time, he heard his mentor's advice:
"By the way, the two Calamity Lords are both there, but you can only kill the descendant of the Calamity God. Leave the other Calamity Lord to Gu Qingxin."
Li Qing...
"OK!"
It is obvious that the college leaders are optimistic about him and Gu Qingxin this time, and the final benefits will be divided between the two of them.
As for Chu Gongkao, the chief of the five-star mentor Tai Shujing, during this training, he killed several Scourge heroes, wiped out a snakeman city, and wiped out an underground tribe. Overall, it was pretty good, but it was far behind the two of them.
As for another five-star mentor, Xiao Zhenqian's chief wizard Ma Yun, it has now been confirmed that he died in the previous defeat.
Xiao Zhenqian could be said to and it was difficult for his apprentices to even rank among the top three in the overall score.
After flying and teleporting, it only took Li Qing more than ten minutes to reach the destination, and he saw a graceful figure at the edge of the plane.
As if sensing his arrival, the girl turned around, revealing her exquisitely beautiful face.
The girl was already youthful and pretty, and the shadow of the absolutely beautiful queen behind her made Li Qing unable to help but be a little dazed.
When Li Qing approached, Gu Qingxin said:
"My mentor told me that these two Scourge Lords will be divided between us, and the Scourge God Descendant will be yours."
Li Qing suppressed his momentary distraction, nodded, took out the virtual map again, looked at it, pointed below and said:
"Right here, I'll go down first and you follow me."
The girl didn't refuse and nodded.
Li Qing's mind moved, and his body expanded rapidly, transforming into a half-dragon man twenty meters tall. He spread his broad dragon wings and dived down the cliff along the edge of the plane.
