Chapter 202: Preparing to Advance to Legend
This legendary giant crocodile was also very tough. Li Qing chased it for almost a whole day and finally killed it in a lake more than 2,000 kilometers away.
He fled directly towards the lakes, probably trying to escape into the water.
But unfortunately, the ancient dragon is not afraid of water. Even if he escapes into the water, he dares to rush into it. Due to the size difference of several times, even the legendary giant crocodile cannot do anything to him even if he performs the death roll in the water.
In the end, he held her down and bit her alive, dismembering her body.
The flesh and blood of the legendary beast attracted the attention of many animals in the lake, but no one dared to come over to see such a huge ancient dragon lying here eating.
After devouring this legendary beast, Gu Long's body grew even larger. At the same time, the vast amount of combat experience he gained allowed him to advance a great step forward in his accumulation.
Li Qing took a look and felt that with his current combat experience, he only needed to kill one more legendary beast and some totems at random.
There is a large dinosaur tribe in the south of the plane, with many totems of different sizes, which are completely enough.
By the time the ancient dragon finished digesting the giant crocodile and returned, the dinosaur city-state had already been captured.
Without the legendary giant crocodile, Xie Zhu directly ordered the dragons to assist Long Luo in the battle. The overwhelming swarm of dragons rushed into the city-state. The city-state did not hold out for long. After the high-ranking officials in the city were beheaded one by one by Zhuo Shaohang, it quickly collapsed.
There are no legendary strongmen among the dinosaur people.
They don't have that inheritance and cannot access the laws to advance to legend.
The reason why legendary beasts are called legendary is because their bodies are so huge and their strength is so strong that they can be compared with legendary strongmen who have mastered the laws. It does not mean that the beasts also master the laws.
After defeating the city-state, many of the tribes affiliated with the city-state surrendered one by one.
Long Luo decisively moved his original tribe here, occupied the city-state, and announced the establishment of a kingdom called "Dragon", worshipping the totem "Dragon".
In order to gain faith as quickly as possible, Li Qing used the power of the space in his palm to synthesize huge sections of city walls, displaying an ability that was equivalent to a miracle for the dinosaur people's low intelligence, and manually rubbed out a giant dinosaur city.
Considering that this may be the future capital of the Dragon Kingdom, the city's pre-set area is very large.
It is ten kilometers long and wide, with four 20-meter-by-20-meter walls stacked up to form a super city 40 meters high and 40 meters wide, which is enough to accommodate a Tyrannosaurus of such a large size for defense.
There are a large number of huge stone fortresses in the city that can accommodate Tyrannosaurus people, as well as tree house-like buildings that can accommodate Winged People.
In the center of the city there is a huge building that is nearly two kilometers long and wide. It is the temple where the totem lives.
After completing this miraculous project, Li Qing also successfully accepted the faith of the newly conquered city-states and subordinate tribes.
In the next six months, Li Qing spent some more effort to build a five-kilometer-long and wide acropolis in each of the four directions of Dragon City. Then he cleared the area between the acropolises, reclaimed wasteland, dug canals, and planted the kind of food that could be grown in the wild plane obtained from the area occupied by the psychic suckers.
The main city and the four major citadels can easily accommodate several million people.
Li Qing even planned that after he conquered the dinosaur tribes in the southern part of the plane one by one in the future, he would also enclose a safe area of millions of square kilometers with the main city as the center.
Just like the Savage City, in the future a super-large area with a length, width and breadth of tens of thousands of kilometers and a total area of over 100 million square kilometers will be demarcated and surrounded by a 40-meter-wide by 20-meter-high wall as a civilized area.
Outside the civilized area is still a wild area. Only some fortresses or fortresses will be built in some important locations, and it will not be over-developed.
Li Qing wanted to conquer this plane mainly because it was primitive enough and suitable for the reproduction of space dragons and space dragons. If he wanted to develop the entire plane into a civilized area, it would be better to find a plane suitable for human immigration to conquer.
In other words, the civilized area of the original wild plane will not exceed one tenth of the plane at most, and the remaining ninety percent are the breeding and hunting areas of space dragons.
After spending nearly a year to complete a mega project that ordinary dinosaur people estimated would take a hundred years to complete, the total number of dinosaur people living in Dragon City has exceeded one million.
During this period, most of the food needed by these millions of dinosaur people was provided by Li Qing, some from hunting and some from fishing.
One of the Acropolis was built on the bank of a large river leading to a group of lakes. The fish resources in this primitive plane are extremely abundant, and any large net can catch thousands of kilograms.
Once the kingdom was back on track, the clarion call for war, which had been suspended for more than a year, sounded again.
This time, the Dragon Kingdom is no longer the ragtag group it used to be. With one million dinosaur people, it can easily select more than 100,000 warriors.
They have been trained to understand simple commands, and all members are equipped with special weapons and equipment.
This time, Li Qing did not use a full plate armor warrior luxuriously, but took out the super strong synthetic leather armor that had not been used for a long time.
This thing is made of imitation dragon skin, and its defense is not inferior to plate armor, but it is lighter and does not affect movement.
The only weakness is the magic resistance of 0, but in this primitive and wild plane, no dinosaur people know spells, so this shortcoming can be ignored.
What is more important to Li Qing is that the material source of this thing is simple. It does not require steel, but only fiber synthesis. The source of fiber is extremely wide. Weeds, trees, leather, etc. on the ground can all be decomposed and synthesized, which is much cheaper than steel.
An army of one hundred thousand well-equipped and well-coordinated dinosaur men divided into several groups to wipe out the surrounding dinosaur tribes, and they were no match for them at all.
Li Qing doesn't need to follow the army. He just needs to stay in Dragon City and wait to be summoned by his subordinates.
As totems were killed one by one, the accumulated combat experience gradually became complete, and later on, there was no need to even look for legendary beasts, as just having enough totem beasts was enough.
It is impossible for there to be two city-states in one area. Later, seeing that enough totems had been killed, the quantitative change had led to a qualitative change, Li Qing no longer pursued looking for legendary beasts to kill.
It is worth mentioning that before the promotion, Li Qing had accumulated more than thirty hero skill points, and decisively upgraded the ancient dragon body to LV8, starting the second transformation.
Inside the central temple fortress of Dragon City, a gigantic ancient dragon resides inside. With every breath he takes, a raging wind blows like a dragon.
As a full thirty points of extraordinary hero skill were integrated into his body, a layer of light cocoon enveloped the ancient dragon, and an inexplicable aura slowly emerged.
Ancestral Ancient Dragon Body LV8 (Holy Domain): Constitution * 2000, Endurance * 2000, Strength * 2000, Recovery * 2000, Speed * 2000%, Damage reduction + 75%, Immune to any hostile skill effects below Legendary.
Additional Feats: Perfect Regeneration +4, Extraordinary Dragon Scales +4, Space Dragon Wings +4, Ancient Dragon Might +4, Ultimate Domination +2, Half-Dragon Transformation +6, Dragon Transformation +4.
Feats +8 (Extraordinary): Dimensional Dragon Body (Mythic): The body contains a regular and complete dimensional space that can accommodate everything in the world. The current size of the space is 10 kilometers in diameter.
Half-Dragon +6: Transform into a 100m long half-dragon.
Dragon Transformation +4 : Transform into the true form of the ancient dragon, with a wingspan of 700 meters and a length of 800 meters from head to tail.
The eighth specialty is called Dimension Dragon Body, which contains a 10-kilometer-diameter, completely regular dimensional space inside the body that can accommodate everything.
This thing is a unique ability of the Ancient Ancestral Dragon, and it is also the unique dragon kingdom of the Ancient Ancestral Dragon. It expands as the Ancient Ancestral Dragon's strength grows. Its descendants can survive in it, and the souls of the dead space dragons will also return here.
To put it simply, it is a portable version of the Dragon Kingdom characteristics of Li Qingshenyu.
It is worth mentioning that this ability does not conflict with the Dragon Kingdom in Li Qing’s Divine Realm. No one stipulates that there is only one Dragon Kingdom.
Moreover, when he is promoted to Legendary, he can choose to integrate the Divine Domain into the Dragon Kingdom within his body, just like the true God refining the Divine Domain into his own portable Divine Kingdom. It’s the same principle, except that he only needs to be promoted to Legendary to integrate it.
And the hurdle of legend...
For him it basically didn't exist.
One day four months later, after Li Qing once again wiped out a very ordinary dinosaur tribe, he went straight back to Savage City, summoned all his main subordinates, and announced:
"As you can see, I am about to be promoted to Legend."
Everyone was delighted:
"Boss, you are finally going to be promoted. We have been waiting for a long time."
"But don't be too happy too soon. Legend is very important to me. This time the promotion will take a long time. It will probably take several years to digest it."
Hearing this, everyone's expressions became serious.
Li Qing said in a deep voice:
"During this period, Savage City and Dragon City will take a defensive stance."
Then he looked at Long Luo and Xie Zhu:
"You guys keep up the previous offensive and continue to expand the territory. In addition, you all take time to rotate to the Dragon Country and try to accumulate enough combat experience before I wake up. I hope that after I am promoted, you will also meet the promotion standards."
Everyone nodded.
After arranging the tasks, Li Qing left the Savage City and entered the wilderness.
This promotion is too critical, that is, it cannot take place in Savage City or Dragon City. Otherwise, the impact will be too great and it will be discovered by outsiders, which may lead to accidents.
In the Dragon Kingdom...
He first went back to the Dragon Kingdom, prepared a large amount of weapons and equipment for Long Luo, and then left the Dragon Kingdom.
Without anyone knowing, they found an overgrown wasteland outside the city and started digging a hole.
He dug down thousands of meters in one breath, then dug out a huge space on both sides that could accommodate several real bodies, then set up defensive barriers around it and curled up to sleep.
As he fell asleep, a layer of crystal space slowly emerged on his body, which looked like a cocoon of light from a distance.
An inexplicable force surged out from the body of the ancient dragon and slowly flowed throughout the body.
Under the stimulation of this inexplicable force, his body began to undergo qualitative changes.
Time flies and years pass.
Li Qing's sleep did not affect Dragon City and Savage City, and his long absence did not attract the attention of adventurers and small and medium-sized forces in the plane.
He had been outside most of the time before, and outsiders had known about it for a long time. Now that he is in seclusion, others think he has gone somewhere again.
As long as the subordinates and the troops are stable, there will be no chaos in the plane.
On the other hand, in the Kingdom of Dragon, Long Luo did not stop his conquest because of Li Qing's deep sleep, and continued to expand outward.
With the large amount of weapons and equipment left by Li Qing, the newly conquered dinosaur warriors will be distributed a set of weapons as long as they confirm their new beliefs and receive standard military training.
As time goes by, they become stronger and stronger.
Li Qing's many subordinates were not idle either. They joined the army in two batches with a large number of space dragon descendants and space dragons, both to assist in the battle and to improve their own strength.
Such a large-scale war of conquest is the best place to improve strength, and a large number of totem beasts can provide them with sufficient support.
With their talents, as long as Li Qing is successfully promoted to Legend, they can easily cross that level and become Legend as long as they have enough combat experience.
With their talents, as long as they are promoted to legend, they will immediately be the best among legends. People like Yi Zhengyuan, Li Yongfa and others they met before will not be their opponents.
Before I knew it, eight years had passed.
The Dragon Kingdom has conquered an area of tens of millions of square kilometers around it and conquered countless dinosaur tribes, but Li Qing has never woken up.
At this time, the power of the Dragon Kingdom has occupied more than half of the south, which has reached its current limit.
Without Li Qing paving the way and setting up one outpost after another, especially without the totem, the Dragon Kingdom's external rule was not as tight as that of the main areas. Some of the newly conquered tribes that were too far away from the Dragon Kingdom were not very convinced of them, and when the main force left, they became restless.
After noticing these anomalies, Long Luo decisively stopped his outward expansion and prepared to digest the current territory first, and then start the war after it stabilized.
However, even though they have stopped expanding, it does not mean that the resistance has stopped.
At this time, the Dragon Kingdom has grown into a behemoth with a total population of nearly 20 million dinosaur people and a standing army of more than one million, all of whom are elite.
They expanded rapidly and conquered nearly half of the land in the southern part of the plane, which had already aroused the vigilance of other tribal city-states.
When they stopped expanding, the unconquered dinosaur tribes and city-states on the other side of the plane united under the leadership of a very powerful Tyrannosaurus and launched an attack on the Dragon Kingdom.
A large number of newly conquered tribes rebelled in response, and the situation on the border immediately deteriorated.
However, the Dragon Kingdom did not take it too seriously. The rebellion on the border would not affect the interior, and more than one million elite troops were enough to easily defeat the loose alliance.
Even the top leaders of the Dragon Nation hope to engage in a decisive battle with the main forces of the alliance and defeat them in one wave.
But just as the Dragon Kingdom was mobilizing its troops, bad news came from Dragon City. An extremely large army of dinosaurs was discovered at an outpost thousands of kilometers east of Dragon City.
This is not the point. The point is that the outpost discovered that above this huge army of dinosaurs there were five huge octopus-like mental fortresses of the lizard war lords floating in the sky.
"The Illithid War Lord is coming !"
At the internal meeting of Longcheng, Li Qing was not present, so An Erqiu, who was designated to be in charge of plane affairs, took it upon himself to issue the order:
"Notify the Dragon Nation and ask His Excellency Long Luo to dispatch 200,000 elite dinosaur troops first. His Excellency Long Fa will be responsible for arranging the transmission."
"In addition, I hope to continue to mobilize 800,000 elite troops to come to support us in the next six months."
"Send another 50,000 elite troops over from Savage City. Just in case, I need to temporarily close the inter-dimensional teleportation array leading to the plane group transit base."
