Chapter 18 Landing Point and Landing
After passing through this plane, most of the planes passed behind were recently pulled from the void. The entire plane was pitch black. Except for a few scattered points of light, there was no other light source except for the star-like light source coming from somewhere in the void above the head.
There is no such thing as the sun in the plane fragments, nor is there any sun projection.
And the star are not stars. They are either the projections of some large planes in the distant void, or the projections of the power of some super beings in the chaotic virtual sea.
For example, the true God!
The light spots inside the plane are mostly the flames of some indigenous communities remaining in the plane fragments. This is also one of the enemies they need to face during their training.
The airship passed over this large-scale plane fragment, and when it was halfway through the flight, it suddenly saw a dazzling light source suddenly appear in the distant direction.
It is brighter than any other light source, illuminating a large area like the sun.
The airship suddenly slowed down, turned, and flew towards the light source.
As we got closer, we suddenly discovered that it was... a castle surrounded by walls!
A beam of light shot up into the sky from the top of the central tower, with a huge ball of light hanging on the top, illuminating an area of more than ten kilometers around it, and also dispelling the fog and chaotic atmosphere in the plane fragments.
These broken plane fragments have been drifting in the chaotic virtual sea for an unknown period of time. The omnipresent chaotic aura has already seeped into the plane along the broken plane crystal walls.
The entire plane was eroded by the aura of chaos, and the creatures within it became more barbaric and warlike.
All food and other resources inside need to be purified by the divine domain before they can be used normally.
This castle is a divine domain that has just been opened.
The divine domain unfolded and appeared in the real material plane, just like the kingdom of God on earth. The buildings in the divine domain overlapped with the earth and the material ground, covering a large open space where the plane was originally located.
This form is like some construction games, where a building is unfolded out of thin air on an empty lawn.
A magic airship about the same size as them was hanging on the top of the castle. Inside the castle there were a large number of defenders, as well as a large number of heroes and professionals of only a few levels, and occasionally some apprentices of war lords could be seen.
Li Qing guessed that this should be a mentor taking his apprentices to train in this plane.
It is worth mentioning that the mentor’s apprentices are not only war lord apprentices, but also a large number of heroes and professionals.
However, most heroes and professionals are not qualified to enter the Blackrock Tower of the War Academy. Their campuses are located elsewhere, so Li Qing has not seen many heroes and professionals since he enrolled.
There were not many heroes and professionals on the magic airship, but that did not mean they were not there. Li Qing guessed that they were all staying in the mentor's divine domain at this time.
When you arrive at the place, you can see it by expanding the divine domain.
The magic airship stayed above the castle for a short while before taking off again and continuing to fly in the designated direction.
There are a large number of wild monsters in these dark plane fragments, including some races that have been wandering with these plane fragments for who knows how many tens of thousands of years, including humans and other alien races.
Fortunately, the airship was already more than a thousand meters high at this time, and the monsters on the ground could basically not reach it. Even if there were extraordinary monsters, they would not be interested in the huge magic airship thousands of meters in the air.
After all, the airship is sixty meters long. Not to mention whether it can be reached, monsters with normal low IQs would never have the idea of attacking such a huge creature.
Except for the even larger void monsters.
Next, after passing through two planes in succession and crossing a void more than one hundred kilometers wide, the magic airship arrived in front of a huge group of plane fragments.
The magic airship circled half a circle along one of the plane fragments, and finally chose a location to enter the plane.
The edge of the airship turned back and forth a little, found a place to slowly descend until it was less than ten meters from the ground.
Li Qing stood in front of the window and looked out. The landing location was the edge of the plane. With the help of the lights outside the magic airship, he could see the barren land below.
On one side is a cliff at the edge of the plane, and on the other side is the interior of the plane. The barren land extends all the way into the plane, and about a hundred meters away, some vegetation such as moss and weeds begin to appear on the ground.
As the searchlight continued to move forward, some low plants and shrubs began to appear.
Suddenly, the searchlight shone a figure behind a small patch of unknown plants. Frightened by the light, the figure quickly turned around and ran away.
"Night Wolf!"
A common carnivorous creature in alien planes. It has night vision but is not a supernatural creature. It likes to hunt in groups and is one of the biggest threats to new war lord apprentices in the early stages.
For them, the appearance of Night Wolf means that there is a complete ecosystem within this plane fragment.
The airship immediately rose again and flew towards the interior of the plane fragment.
Next, the magic airship took about three hours to cross the entire plane and arrived at the other end of the plane, the north. However, the airship did not leave the plane and enter the void. Instead, it flew right along the edge of the plane to the east of the plane, and then spent more than three hours crossing the plane to the westernmost side.
During the journey, Li Qing could see several balls of light in the dark plane from an altitude of thousands of meters.
This means that there are several indigenous communities in this plane, but we don't know what kind of indigenous creatures they are.
Then it turned back and flew straight to the northern part of the plane.
This time, several clusters of large lights were seen. The most conspicuous one could vaguely see a tall stone building.
These are the enemies they need to eliminate in the future, and also the goals of their training.
An hour and a half later, the magic airship stopped somewhere in the northern part of the plane and slowly landed.
Not long after, the magic airship descended to only about ten meters from the ground.
"Everyone, pack up and gather in the lobby on the first floor of the airship within 5 minutes!"
An extremely loud voice sounded in the airship. Li Qing, who was standing in front of the window looking at the darkness outside, had an idea. He turned around, folded the quilt on the bed left and right, stuffed it into his backpack, and quickly pushed the door open and walked out.
There was a corridor outside the door. He pushed the door open and saw the doors of the rooms on both sides of the corridor opening one after another, and young men came out with bags on their backs.
Everyone looked at each other, then lined up to leave expressionlessly.
During the several days along the way, there was mostly no communication between them.
Arriving at the lobby on the first floor, Li Qing saw his tutor and several teaching assistants standing in the lobby waiting for them to gather.
Everyone arrived quickly. Li Qing looked around. He didn't recognize any of the sixteen war lord apprentices, and he believed that most of them didn't recognize the others either.
When the time came, instructor Nie Yang said:
"This training location is in this plane. The magic airship will land and clean up the place later. You can stay on the airship, or you can ask Director Hong Yutong to take on some tasks."
"Either bring your own people to help clean up, or patrol the surrounding area with your own men."
After saying this, Nie Yang waved his hand, and an invisible force pushed the apprentices away, leaving the hall empty.
Then he pointed his finger, and a distortion appeared in the center of the empty hall, and quickly condensed into a four-meter-high light gate. Accompanied by the sound of heavy footsteps and the collision of metal, a two-meter-tall humanoid warrior covered in thick plate armor, holding a thick tower-shaped steel shield in one hand and a long sword in the other walked out.
"Level 45 Heavy Infantry!"
Li Qing let out a sigh, full of envy.
The fourth-tier elite troops are definitely a powerful weapon in this plane fragment. There are almost no monsters that can do anything to this powerful troop covered with thick plate armor.
Judging from the death rate of the front-row cannon fodder, I wonder how many battles one would have to go through in order to train a heavy infantryman.
It was unknown whether any of the infantrymen under Li Qing's command would be able to successfully reach the end.
With heavy steps, twenty heavy infantrymen in full plate armor walked out of the mentor's divine domain in one breath, followed by a large number of third-level elite imperial infantrymen, then ten fourth-level imperial sharpshooters, ten fourth-level imperial heavy crossbowmen, and more than twenty third-level elite archers and crossbowmen.
Then, a heroic knight of level five walked out of the portal, followed by two professional mages of level five.
The heroic knight was wearing gorgeous chain mail and riding a tall horse covered with scale armor.
When everyone was gathered, the heroic knight drew his sword from his waist and raised it high:
"Set off!"
Following an order, the front row of heavy infantrymen jumped out of the opened rear door of the airship carrying tower shields.
The descent to a height of two meters was not a big problem for them. With a dull sound, dozens of tin cans fell to the ground below the airship, and then they quickly separated to be on alert.
Then a dozen archers and crossbowmen also jumped down. The last knight jumped lightly and landed slowly on the ground under the levitation spell cast by a wizard.
"A small team on the left..."
"Team Two, right..."
"In front of Team Three..."
"Behind Team Four..."
"Team Five, stay where you are..."
Every team consists of four infantrymen and two ranged soldiers, and they explore the surroundings with the help of the light of the magic airship.
Ten seconds later, a loud shout came from behind, followed by a beast roar, and then the beast roar quickly turned into a howl, and the sound quickly disappeared.
A minute later, there was another loud shout from behind, and then there was silence, and no movement from the central knight, as if nothing had happened just now.
After that, there was no more movement. About five minutes later, the instructor on the airship suddenly moved. He and several assistants suddenly came to the back door of the airship, pointed at a random door in front of them, and it opened.
The instructor and the teaching assistant stepped into the portal, and at that moment another portal appeared on the ground. Nie Yang happened to walk out of it and stepped on the ground.
The knight hero and two professional mages quickly came to Nie Yang to protect him. They watched as Master Nie Yang opened the door to his divine domain again. Another mixed force of about one hundred infantry and ranged soldiers came out, accompanied by another knight hero and several professional mages.
The quality of this batch of troops is obviously inferior to the previous batch. Most of them are between the second and third levels, and there are few fourth-level troops.
Next, under the instructor's command, the troops were divided into four parts again and dispersed to all directions to reunite with the original team.
At the same time, four professional mages also followed the team.
After a while, Li Qing saw a huge ball of light rising in each of the four directions, illuminating the surroundings.
The light from all around merged into one, illuminating the one-kilometer area centered on the magic airship, and the ubiquitous gray fog was slowly dissipated and purified.
Many dark shadows in the surrounding woods were immediately startled by the light and fled backwards from their hiding places.
There were two that attracted Li Qing's attention. One was on the east side, and the other three were humanoid creatures that he couldn't see clearly at the moment.
One is in the north, a big guy about six or seven meters long, looks like a large lizard.
After turning on the lights, the guard troops took their positions, and the mentor quickly summoned more than two hundred followers with lumberjack axes from his own divine domain to start chopping down trees.
This area is a not very dense forest, full of huge trees that are difficult for two people to hug together. The divine domain must be deployed on flat ground.
Some low shrubs, some small stones, and slightly uneven places can be ignored and covered directly, but big trees like these that are more than ten meters or even dozens of meters high cannot be directly covered with the divine domain and must be cut down first.
At this time, a professional mage in a green robe who did not get off the airship clapped his hands to attract the attention of the apprentices:
"Boys, if I were you, I could open the gate to the divine realm now and gather a group of lumberjacks to cut down trees to speed up the clearing process. If you cut down more than 100 trees within the scheduled time, you will be rewarded with 1 credit. In addition, the trees you cut down will belong to you."
Everyone was stunned, and someone immediately turned around and slid down the ladder that had just been lowered at the stern of the boat.
Then everyone followed suit.
The so-called credits are the internal currency of the college, but this currency is not universal and can only be used and traded within one's own tutor.
Mainly used for learning extraordinary courses.
Because the instructors and teaching assistants only teach some basic courses, apprentices must earn credits to redeem additional advanced courses.
This thing is not difficult to make money, as long as you are diligent.
The main purpose of the instructors making this thing is to get the apprentices moving, and it also gives civilian apprentices an opportunity to generate income.
Be diligent and take on more tasks to earn some credits, then sell them to wealthy apprentices who don't want to spend their time on these trivial matters.
According to the price set by the teacher, 1 credit can be exchanged for 10,000 yuan.
If a civilian apprentice works hard, he can save a dozen points or even more a month and easily earn hundreds of thousands of yuan a month.
Li Qing followed them down and immediately opened the door to the divine realm. His consciousness returned to the divine realm to condense an incarnation.
“Boom!”
The sound of the bell from the tower in the Divine Realm attracted the attention of everyone in the Divine Realm. Li Qing's incarnation stood in front of the tower and loudly ordered:
"My people, I need fifty strong men to cut wood for me. Food and lodging are provided, and the daily wage for each man is one kilogram of rice."
There was a moment of silence in the divine domain, and soon someone raised his hand and shouted:
"Your Excellency, I will go."
As soon as the words fell, the others reacted and gathered in front of the tower of the divine realm with their hands raised.
