Chapter 162: The Summoned Demigod and the Advent of the Main Plane
Early the next morning, someone knocked on the door of Li Qing's residence.
The visitor was a tall human warrior, wearing a thick set of silver plate armor and a two-handed sword, nothing else.
After they met, the soldier took off his helmet, revealing a big man with scars all over his face and a determined look in his eyes. He knelt on one knee in front of Li Qing and said loudly:
"At the request of His Highness, Zhuo Shaohang is here to serve you!"
Li Qing knew in his heart that this was the demigod who had lowered his rank and was found for him by Gu Qiangu.
He first accepted the warrior's salute, then hurried forward to help him up, and said seriously:
"Please take good care of me in the coming days, sir."
The warrior stood up, put on his helmet again, and said in a deep voice:
"I am summoned by His Highness and will fight for His Excellency Li Qing in the coming days!"
Li Qing nodded, opened the divine realm, and invited the big man in.
Entering the high tower of the divine realm, Zhuo Shaohang's attribute panel popped up in front of Li Qing. At this time, his rank was only eighth level, but he was a legendary template and a descendant of a god.
All of his heroic fighting skills are above LV5, and several of his core divine talents are all at LV6 extraordinary level. His overall strength is very strong.
Li Qing first included him in the hero system of his own divine domain, occupying a hero slot.
Then he summoned his main subordinates to introduce him and appointed him as his chief guard to protect him.
Then he said to him very politely:
"For the time being, please condescend to me. You may go anywhere in the divine domain except for the first underground floor below the second floor of the tower."
Zhuo Shaohang nodded:
"According to the contract, I will protect your safety until the end of the contract."
Li Qing nodded and said nothing more.
Then he took out three rays of Destiny Heroes' Light and transformed Dai Lirong, Shang Yingxin and Xie Jin into Destiny Heroes.
The upper dragon clan does not have the authority yet, so we have to wait a little longer.
The transformation is completed. With Zhuo Shaohang included, there are a total of ten heroes in the Divine Realm besides him, so the manpower is slightly more sufficient.
Coming out of the divine realm, Li Qing was about to thank Gu Qiangu, but he received a letter from Gu Qiangu first:
"How is it, are you satisfied?"
Li Qing nodded quickly:
"Of course I am satisfied, thank you!"
"You should thank me. It's not easy to find a demigod who is willing to lower his rank to protect the younger generation, and he is also a destined hero born in the human race."
"Also, you have to remember some precautions. Zhuo Shaohang is only responsible for protecting you and will not go out to lead troops in battle, so don't count on him to deal with any powerful enemies."
"Also, the contract between me and him is only for fifty years. After fifty years, he will be free again. You should be aware of this."
"He has nothing now because of what he has been through. The equipment he is equipped with is very ordinary. You'd better equip him with better equipment. If there is a chance, you can equip him with a magic pattern suit to increase his strength."
Li Qing nodded quickly:
"I will."
"in addition……"
Gu Qiangu hesitated for a moment and said:
"Zhuo Shaohang is now a free man, not working for any force, and has fallen into a low point in his life. If you are interested, you can try to make friends with him and use various methods to improve your relationship."
"If your performance is good enough and your potential is strong enough, you may be able to convince him and officially recruit him as your subordinate."
"Well……"
"Recruiting a demigod?"
Li Qing covered his face with a smile:
"Boss, you think too highly of me. Given my current situation, how can I be qualified to recruit a demigod?"
It is not so easy to recruit demigods. The basic condition is a large-scale territory of faith, which means that they must have their own territory, population, and faith.
When reaching the level of demigod, the next goal is to become a god, which requires a massive amount of power of faith.
Although Li Qing's strength is growing rapidly, and he is even confident that he can be promoted to a legend within five years, he is still a long way from meeting the requirements to recruit a demigod.
It is not easy to conquer a plane from scratch.
From finding a suitable plane, to preparing to descend, to defeating the enemies within the plane, to suppressing resistance and rebellion, and then to the natives of the plane accepting their fate, accepting the rule and beginning to develop faith, this time often takes decades or even hundreds of years. Some large planes may take hundreds of years to slowly complete the final taming.
Besides, if you really want to have territory, the first step is to satisfy your own needs before you consider having extra to recruit subordinates.
However, although it seems impossible, Gu Qiangu's proposal is still quite tempting.
After all, he is a senior demigod. If he can be recruited, he will immediately have powerful combat power.
But that's all a matter for the future; right now his focus is on the next coming.
We still have more than 6.9 billion yuan in funds on hand, which must be used.
First, he spent a full 3.1 billion to purchase enough magic ink to mix more than 3,000 different types of magic ink, which was specially used to make magic pattern constructs.
Not only is power magic patterns produced, but all the inks needed for other basic magic patterns are also prepared.
In addition, there were a large number of animal skins, including high-grade animal skins for making second-level magic patterns, and red dragon skins that could be used to make pages for war magic books, which cost about 500 million.
Then there was a large amount of mithril, enough to make nearly two hundred iron golems, which cost 2.1 billion.
Add to that some seeds, saplings, some Warcraft cubs, etc., and it cost about 100 million.
Then, he spent 200 million to purchase 100,000 level 4 Imperial Infantry Promotion Cards, 300 million to purchase 100,000 level 4 Archer Promotion Cards, and 150 million to purchase 10,000 level 5 Imperial Cavalry Promotion Cards.
The total amount of military type cards is more than the upper limit of character in God's Domain.
A total of 6.45 billion was spent, with about 520 million remaining as a reserve.
After the purchase, he suddenly became a pauper again.
The population was not purchased, although his current population in the divine domain is only about 46,000, and the population cap is 150,000.
You don't need to buy all of them. When you descend to the plane, if you encounter a town with indigenous humans, you can plunder it directly without spending money to buy it.
After making all the preparations, Li Qing spent most of the next few days with Gu Qingxin, besides completing his routine meditation and work.
Get together more often while there are still a few days before the advent, otherwise there will be no time for romance after the advent.
The place where they landed was the same, in the central main plane of this plane group, in an empire established by His Highness Chun Yu An on the main plane.
In this way, they do not need to face the various suppressions, hostility and attacks from the indigenous people and other problems that they have just encountered in the plane they have just arrived.
This treatment is not exclusive to the privileged contestants, but is available to all contestants. It is a preferential treatment given to them by the summer camp sponsor, His Highness Chun Yu An.
They need to land in the empire where His Highness Chun Yu An is located and stay for about a month to eliminate the foreign marks and auras on their bodies. After gaining the recognition of the universal will of the group in this plane, they will leave the main plane one by one and go to other planes to hunt down the psychic sucking monsters and the destined war lords.
As for the so-called treasure of the ancient gods, this is just a joke.
Several destiny civilizations have searched for such a long time and couldn't even find a shadow, so there is no need to count on this.
It is even possible that the legend is false.
It is worth mentioning that the plane we descended to this time is a bit far away from the Eternal Tree of mankind, so communication is not as convenient as in the previous experience in Blackrock Spire Academy.
Even with His Highness Chun Yu An's fortress base as a transit point, the communication signal radiation range is only within the main plane.
Once you leave the main plane, there is basically no signal.
In other planes, unless the divine domain is expanded, communication is only possible within a radius of ten kilometers around the divine domain.
It is naturally impossible to replenish various supplies easily, so it is best to be fully prepared before leaving.
Li Qing prepared 100,000 infantrymen and 100,000 archers just for this purpose, in order to avoid being trapped in certain places in the plane for a long time, unable to escape for five or ten years, and having to rely on these for support.
A week passed in a flash, and they came to the summer camp hall again, and saw a huge teleportation platform in the center of the hall. A light figure whose appearance could not be seen clearly stood in front of the teleportation platform and said to them:
"The specific rules and precautions for the second phase have been sent to you. You can read them at any time now and after the advent. Now we will begin to descend to the main plane of the plane group."
After he finished speaking, the surface of the teleportation platform suddenly glowed, and the teleportation array began to activate.
"The teleportation array has been activated. The front is clear and you can come at any time. I wish you all good luck in martial arts!"
After saying this, Guangren disappeared, leaving the contestants looking at each other in bewilderment.
Soon, several contestants came to the teleportation platform together, and with the spiritual light rising into the sky, several contestants were teleported to the distant main plane.
Someone started, and everyone began to teleport one after another.
Li Qing didn't wait long. After briefly flipping through the rule book, he took his girlfriend's hand and stepped onto the teleportation platform.
A familiar space teleportation, the moment the feet touched the ground, a tremendous force suddenly descended upon the body and soul, but it was not very strong. Instead, I felt Gu Qingxin's hand suddenly tighten, and a light hum came from my ear.
He turned around quickly and saw Gu Qingxin's body slightly bent, with a dazzling light emanating from her, and a circle of distortion surrounding her.
"Is it so oppressive for you?"
She couldn't make any movement at this moment, and remained motionless in this state of confrontation.
Li Qing looked around. All the players who were teleported over were suppressed to varying degrees. Not far away, he saw two sons of destiny. They were also glowing all over, as if they were under extremely terrifying suppression.
"It seems to be their own problem."
It's not surprising that this is because their true bodies are inherently sacred. Even if they are sealed, their essence has not changed. For the alien plane, it is equivalent to an alien god descending to this plane, and the suppression must be great.
Fortunately, it has been sealed. In addition, the landing point is in the conquered area of His Highness Chunyu An, and the suppression of the will of the alien plane has been weakened to the extreme.
If it had descended normally, there would probably be lightning and thunder by now, with all kinds of strange phenomena flying around in the sky.
Li Qing was a little surprised. The essence of his life and soul was no less than those born divine, but the reaction to his arrival was not that exaggerated.
He speculated that there were two reasons.
One thing is that he is not a true god after all. Powerful magical creatures like dragons exist in all planes of the Chaos Void Sea, and their degree of repulsion is far less than that of foreign true gods.
The second point is that he was too strong, so he didn't feel much.
As time went by, the abnormalities on their bodies gradually subsided. After nearly two hours, many contestants were able to move. The distortions on several children of destiny had disappeared, and the light was no longer dazzling.
Li Qing stayed with her until all the abnormalities on her body disappeared.
During this time, he took the time to look around. They should be at a teleportation point surrounded by high city walls. The surrounding stone walls, which were dozens of meters high, were covered with magic runes, and a circle of transparent light curtains covered the walls and the top of their heads.
There were no defensive war weapons on the city walls, but through the light curtain on the top of the city walls, one could see several wizard towers surrounded by energy halos outside the city. The surging energy was heart-pounding.
If nothing unexpected happens, this should be a city within a city.
There is a huge gate on one side of the city wall. The gate is wide open but there is also a light curtain. There are many guards in robes at the gate.
Some contestants who were no longer in danger were chatting with them at the city gate, and every once in a while one or two people passed through the gate's light curtain and left.
As time goes by, people keep coming and leaving.
Li Qing felt that he could leave early in the morning, but he stayed with his girlfriend until dark. Only when the abnormality on her body completely disappeared did they go to the city gate together. After receiving two badges from the guards, they entered the city gate.
Passing through the light film, they immediately felt the ubiquitous oppression in the void and the disgust from the entire world.
If they had landed directly outside at the beginning, the instantaneous fierce conflict would definitely cause a loud commotion, and they would have been discovered by the natives of the plane.
But now they have gone through the initial adaptation period and when they appear under the sky again, there is no reaction.
At this time, Li Qing was aware that there should be a special magic array set up in the small city where they had just stayed, which could quickly eliminate the foreign marks and auras on their bodies. Otherwise, it would be impossible for there to be no significant reaction in just one day.
But this doesn't mean they can run around now.
No, they are not in big trouble now because this is their occupied area.
If you leave here and go to the territory of the natives of the plane, you will be noticed and killed by the indigenous strongmen in minutes.
Outside the small town is a huge war fortress with many wizard towers. There is even a huge floating city parked on the top of a low mountain range near the edge of the fortress.
This should be the core base of His Highness Chunyu An in this main plane, but it is not the capital of the empire he established.
The empire established by His Highness Chun Yu An is called the Star Empire. It occupies one-third of one of the three main continents of this main plane. Its ruler is his descendant of God, and it has existed for more than two hundred years.
In other words, His Highness Chunyu An discovered this plane from the beginning to successfully gaining a foothold in this plane.
Then they successfully seized such a large territory from the indigenous people and stabilized the territory, which has been going on for more than two hundred years.
Fortunately, he has two small planes and one large plane in his , with a steady supply of resources and military support. This allows him to persist until now under the constant attacks from the indigenous strongmen and local gods of this plane.
