Chapter 182: Siege

There was no drama of rushing back to save the situation at the last minute. After receiving the news from his subordinates, Li Qing first tore apart the divine domain dominated by the spirit-sucking monster, and then collected the fragments into the space in his palm.
Then he caught up with the Soul Sucking Monster Overlord who left a space mark, and after a chase, he finally killed the Soul Sucking Monster Overlord who had no support from the divine domain.
Then just tear open the space, open the space door and teleport back.
The space gate can teleport over a very long distance. With Li Qing's current strength, he can teleport freely within the same plane.
When he returned to the main base, Xia Yuanqing's troops were still building the camp.
Li Qing only glanced outside the city, and then said to Dai Lirong and Shang Yingxin:
"You guys come with me."
Returning to the divine realm, he took out two ancient dragon bloods and handed them to them:
"Fuse, and you will be like them."
The two men immediately knew what it was, and immediately knelt down and said loudly:
"My Lord, thank you for your cultivation. I will always be loyal to you in the name of the Eternal Divine Tree!"
Li Qing nodded:
"I believe in you. Take it and fuse it."
After being promoted to the tenth level, not only did the upper limit of his Ancient Dragon Blood increase from three to five, but it was also all restored.
He now has five ancient dragon bloods left. He has used two and has three extra in his hands which he will not use for the time being.
So far, he has a total of 9 heroic subordinates, all of whom are of upper-dimensional dragon descent.
There are no vacancies for the remaining three, and there is no time to select new subordinates to be transformed into heroes.
Zhuo Shaohang is actually a good choice. He is a demigod. If he can fuse the blood of the ancient dragon and become a demigod-level upper space dragon, his strength will definitely be qualitatively stronger.
But the problem is that he is not his subordinate yet.
And because he is now a demigod, his rank is much higher than Li Qing, and the upper limit of the rank of his descendants of the dragon clan in the upper space cannot exceed his.
After the transformation was completed, Li Qing mobilized all the troops stationed in the divine realm and deployed them in the city. He then went to the top of the city and looked outside.
The people outside the city had been paying attention to the situation inside the city. When they saw Li Qing, they immediately reported it. Soon, Xia Yuanqing came out surrounded by many younger brothers and came to a place about two kilometers away from the city wall.
Xia Yuanqing slowly floated up until he was level with the city wall, and shouted loudly:
"Mr. Li Qing, long time no see!"
Li Qing's eyes twitched, and he resisted the urge to transform into an ancient dragon and spit out a breath of dragon's breath. He said calmly:
"If possible, I hope we don't meet here."
"Hahaha!"
Xia Yuanqing laughed and said:
"I thought so too, but there is still time. Open the city gate and surrender to me. I will allow you to keep your troops and grant you a piece of land."
Li Qing shook his head and said:
"I would rather see you as a prisoner under my throne."
The smile on Xia Yuanqing's face paused and quickly disappeared, replaced by a sneer:
"You may be stubborn, but being stubborn won't change the outcome. Since I dare to attack, I am sure I will win. Three days..."
He held up three fingers and said coldly:
"In three days, I will sit on your throne, and you will become my prisoner."
Li Qing also sneered and said:
"Why would we need three days? We can decide the winner today!"
Li Qing turned his head and looked at An Erqiu. An Erqiu nodded, turned around and waved vigorously to the herald. The herald ran behind the city wall, took out a horn and blew it hard.
“Ooooo…!”
A desolate horn sounded, and the troops assembled in the huge square began to mobilize under the orders of their respective commanders and gathered towards the city gate.
“Boom!”
The huge city gate slowly opened, and heavy steel golems slowly walked out of it, forming a line and quickly advancing forward to form a defensive line.
Behind the Iron Golem was an elite cavalry, which came out of the city gate and split into two, heading left and right.
Behind them is the elite infantry phalanx.
"Do you really have the guts to fight in the wild?"
Xia Yuanqing turned around in surprise, and many of his subordinates were also a little surprised, but more of them were happy:
"Isn't this exactly what we want? We don't even need to prepare siege weapons. We can just defeat them in a head-on battle and the city will be ours."
Xia Yuanqing laughed:
"Since he is eager to die, how can I not do as he wishes? Let's have a wild fight."
He turned around and shouted:
"Xia Tuo, assemble the troops and prepare for battle!"
Handing over the command of the large army to his chief hero, Xia Yuanqing returned to the rear, opened the door to the divine realm, and began to summon more troops.
Neither side attempted a surprise attack, but instead focused on mobilizing their troops and deploying their battle formations.
All of Li Qing's troops gathered at the foot of the city, but many of them stood on the city walls, relying on the advantages of the walls.
The dragon troops have assembled, but there are only about twenty of them hovering above the city walls. More of them remain in the city and have not shown up, ready to give them a surprise when the time comes.
Three hundred Constructed Knights have also been mobilized, mixed with a total of more than three hundred fifth-level elite armored and fourth-level armored cavalry to form a team and stand by.
The two war beasts are already in place and have both been promoted to level nine.
The opposing Xia Yuanqing coalition was composed of more than a dozen summer camp players. Even if one person only sent out 10,000 soldiers, there would be more than 100,000 soldiers. In fact, the players who could participate in the summer camp were all strong, and it was easy for them to send out 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers.
However, there is not enough open space outside the city, and the coalition forces have assembled only about 250,000 regular troops.
There is strength in numbers. When assembled, there are as many as five to six thousand fifth-level Dragon Scale heavy infantrymen alone, even more archers, and more than two thousand heavy cavalry.
But these are all regular troops, and each of the summer camp contestants has some extraordinary troops.
Some are extraordinary soldiers, some are constructed knights, but the most conspicuous one is Xia Yuanqing, an extraordinary soldier who is born sacred and unique.
Every natural born god has a super soldier type related to his ability, similar to how Li Qing used the blood of the ancient dragon to transform into the space dragon clan. They can also use a trace of their own blood and power to transform into their own super soldier types.
Just like Murong Shifang's natural divine duty was lightning, the unique extraordinary soldier he transformed into was the Lightning Lord.
Xia Yuanqing's natural divine duty is the wasteland, which is far inferior to Murong Shifang's lightning, but he can also transform it into a special type of soldier that belongs to him - the Wasteland Hunter, a special type of soldier that has both extremely strong melee combat and long-range throwing.
This kind of extraordinary soldier is also transformed from a mortal. After obtaining the power of the wilderness and a trace of divine power, their stature becomes taller, and they are equipped with refined gold armor and refined gold arrows, as well as a large pot of javelins, and are capable of both close combat and long-range combat.
Xia Qingyuan has about 1,500 Wasteland Hunters on hand.
In addition, they also have a large order of construct knights.
The total size of all the summer camp participants was about 600, twice his size.
They don't have the ability to manufacture magic rune constructs themselves. They have to order these magic rune constructs at great prices. However, top-level equipment such as magic rune constructs have always been in short supply. Once they appear on the market, they are sold out in seconds unless the price is outrageous. Naturally, it is impossible for them to stockpile too many.
On the battlefield, the extraordinary combat power of the Construct Knight has always been used as a trump card.
When the war lords fight in the outer realms, they will not be allowed to fight in most battles. Generally, they will send out a team of elite extraordinary construct knights to carry out offensive missions only in decisive battles or very important large-scale battlefields.
For example, chiseling at weak points on the battlefield.
Decapitation tactics.
Or deal with the enemy's strong men and the same extraordinary soldiers.
Normal frontal combat is carried out by conventional troops, and it is rare for Construct Knights to directly attack conventional troop formations.
This thing costs so much to make, how can you just use it for free?
In addition to the Wasteland Hunters and Construct Knights, many summer camp contestants have a small amount of extraordinary combat power in their hands, either heroes or scattered extraordinary soldiers. There are not many of them individually, but the total number is more than two hundred.
In addition, there are more than thirty war beasts of all types, even seven dragons above the extraordinary level.
And 420 Iron Golems.
"Forwards ready!"
When the troops were fully in place, An Erqiu's huge voice rang out and he waved the command flag:
"go ahead!"
The huge phalanx of elite infantry began to advance, and then orders were conveyed one by one, and each unit advanced synchronously.
The coalition forces on the opposite side had not yet been fully in place. After all, their force size was seven or eight times larger than theirs. However, the commander did not care. He issued orders one after another and mobilized the infantry phalanxes that had been prepared in the front row to meet the enemy.
The war lords of both sides did not move, as they basically had dedicated commanding heroes.
When they first become apprentices of war lords, they are still required to command personally. When their strength grows, there will basically be full-time heroes.
Some have full-time commanders, and some have more than one.
There are full-time internal affairs people.
There are professional combat types.
There are full-time logistics staff.
There are people who are full-time farmers, and there are all kinds of people.
Overlooking the difference in the size of the two sides' forces through the water mirror spell, a summer camp contestant said:
"With a size gap of seven or eight times, I don't understand why he dares to fight us head-on."
Another summer camper said with a smile:
"After all, he is the number one in this summer camp. He is very powerful. Maybe he has some hidden cards that we don't know about."
"No matter how good the trump card is, it still needs enough troops to support it, unless he can kill us all in one go."
"Hehe, no need to worry, just wait and see, I'm also very curious."
At this time, the regular troops of both sides on the battlefield were already approaching. The fully armored infantry could already see the dark mass of troops coming towards them. Many captains immediately shouted loudly and roared:
"We must win, kill!"
"We must win, kill!"
The soldiers immediately followed suit, roared loudly, and rushed forward with courage.
From afar, two steel torrents with armor of different colors collided heavily, and countless shouts of fighting rang out in an instant.
Then, it could be clearly seen that the steel torrent of Li Qing's side gained the upper hand in the collision, overwhelming the front row of the coalition forces.
"Archers, shoot!"
In an instant, a rain of arrows shot up into the sky, drawing dense arcs in the air and falling into the enemy formation.
Soon, shouts of officers were heard from the enemy camp, and an even larger rain of arrows came over.
After the rain of arrows came various spells. The army's mages began to cast spells. Fireballs fell into the army. A large number of soldiers were blown to the ground, burned by the flames, screaming in pain, and struggling on the ground.
Li Qing's side was not willing to be outdone. More than a thousand space dragon descendants who were mixed in the front line also began to show their power. The space blades flashed and easily cut through the thick dragon scale armor, splitting the whole person in two.
Even the troops behind were not spared and were injured by the aftermath of the cutting.
In just sixty seconds of fighting between the two sides, more than one hundred and nearly two hundred soldiers on Li Qing's side were killed.
This is despite the terrifying bonuses his troops have. The combined talents of the Ancient Dragon and the Descendants of God provide an additional 200% bonus to physique and endurance, making his soldiers even more powerful.
The first wave of contact between the two sides will overwhelm the front row of the opponent. They will also have stronger physical fitness and recovery capabilities, and higher tolerance to damage.
Nearly two hundred of them were killed in one minute, and more than seven hundred of the coalition forces were killed in this short minute.
The command posts of both sides soon received reports of damage, and the summer camp participants could hardly believe their eyes.
"How can this be?"
"Why is there such a big gap? Our front line is also made up of elite troops."
At this time, a summer camp contestant frowned and said after a moment of silence :
"I asked the heroes on the front line. The enemy's troops are quite powerful. The front line can't withstand the impact of the enemy's infantry phalanx."
After a pause, he nodded in response to Xia Yuanqing's inquiring gaze.
"The front row opposite is also composed of the Imperial Army. They are either Imperial Dragon Scale Heavy Infantry or Heavy Infantry, just like us. However, their physique and strength are far greater than ours. A head-on confrontation would be completely one-sided."
Xia Yuanqing hesitated for a moment and said:
"Either his strategic level is higher than mine, or he has some powerful heroic treasure, or his bloodline talent has a very high bonus to physical strength."
Everyone nodded, agreeing with his explanation, and someone asked:
"Then what's next..."
Xia Yuanqing said in a deep voice:
"Since we don't have the upper hand on the front battlefield, let's fight a supernatural war, gather all the supernatural soldiers and war beasts, and open up a new battlefield outside the main battlefield."
"In addition, we will also take action and directly challenge Li Qing."
Xia Yuanqing said confidently:
"It's impossible for all three battlefields to be so strong. As long as he gains an advantage in any one battlefield, he will focus on that point, tear a gap from there, and then expand the advantage to other battlefields, thus laying the foundation for victory!"
Soon Li Qing saw the war beast behind the enemy leaving the camp and walking towards the right with heavy steps.
Then I received a message from An Erqiu:
"Boss, the reconnaissance team discovered that the coalition's extraordinary soldiers are gathering and approaching our right side. It seems that they want to open up a second battlefield. I am ready to confront them head-on and open up a second battlefield."
Li Qing immediately replied:
"You decide."
"I see."
Soon there was a commotion at the rear of the army. The lava crystal dragon, which had been promoted to the ninth level and expanded to sixty meters in length, was moving to the right with heavy steps.
A large number of Iron Golems guarding the rear gathered and followed the Lava Crystal Dragon.
Not all of the Space Dragonborn have been mobilized. Li Qing now has more than 3,600 Space Dragonborn in his hands, and about 1,000 are left to mix in with the regular troops to provide support.
If the enemy is just making a feint and taking advantage of the transfer of the extraordinary troops to launch a surprise attack on the regular troops by some means, these thousand or so Space Dragonborn can stop them.
