Chapter 207: Subduing the Legendary Beast
Li Qing returned after subduing the three legendary beasts. At this time, the war in the Dragon Kingdom had been interrupted.
His sudden appearance directly disrupted the battlefield. After the demigod totem was killed, the morale of the coalition forces collapsed directly. The coalition forces and logistics troops that were at the back and did not go to the battlefield had already begun to flee early.
Looking from the air, there were fleeing dinosaur people everywhere.
Unfortunately, the Dragon Kingdom has suffered too much loss and no longer has the energy to pursue the enemy. It can only incorporate the dinosaur army that has already entered the city and has not had time to escape.
Li Qing had no intention of continuing the pursuit. It was not important. He could easily reconquer it when he had time in the future. The most important thing now was Longcheng.
Of course, the situation in Longcheng is not that bad yet.
There are many defenders over there, and the main force is all there. There is also a legendary strong man in charge. There are more than ten upper-level dragons of the tenth order, and there are also many ninth- and tenth-order space dragons and dragon descendants.
In addition, the strength of the Mind-Sucking War Lord is not as strong as that of the Dragon Kingdom.
Of course, there are more legendary strongmen on the side of the Mind-sucking Monster War Lords, but their legendary strongmen are all Mind-sucking Monster masters, not legendary beasts, and are not good at siege.
Legendary strongmen can easily play with legendary beasts with the power of the laws they have mastered and their flexibility. They can fight two at once without suffering any damage. They are so flexible.
But when it comes to siege, three legendary warriors are no match for a legendary beast.
Take the current defense situation of Dragon City for example. None of the many legendary spirit-sucking monster masters dare to charge in, but if one legendary behemoth were to charge in, they would just lower their head and rush in.
The vitality that is hundreds or thousands of times that of a legendary strongman ensures that the legendary beast can forcibly withstand the fierce attacks of the defenders and destroy a section of the city wall before being knocked down.
The news received from Dragon City at this time was that although the enemy's offensive was fierce, because there were no legendary behemoths and the legendary spirit-sucking monster master did not dare to take risks, they were still in the brutal siege and meat-mincing stage and could be resisted for the time being.
The Dragon Kingdom is really making an extreme comeback, but Dragon City has plenty of time and it is not yet the most dangerous time.
Li Qing breathed a sigh of relief after confirming the situation over there and did not rush over immediately.
He had to plan carefully and try to win the battle under Dragon City in one go and kill .
First, Li Qing summoned the thirteen living space dragons and brought them into the dragon kingdom in his body.
There are nearly fifty space dragons here. Most of them died in the previous battle, and their bodies were eaten by the totems, but their souls all returned to his dragon kingdom.
At this time, the internal space of Li Qing's Dragon Kingdom had a diameter of one thousand kilometers. It was a chaotic void filled with violent chaotic energy everywhere.
He had just been promoted and had not had time to clean up the chaotic energy and create the world.
These chaotic energies can be used to create all things in the world, but he doesn’t have time to deal with them. He can only wait until he has time to create the world in the future.
After the thirteen scarred space dragons entered the Dragon Kingdom, they saw thirteen blood-red light pillars standing in this chaotic space. An aura that made them feel longing came from the light pillars.
They suddenly had an idea and flew towards a blood-red beam of light.
When I got closer, I saw a drop of crystalline blood suspended in the beam of light.
This is the blood of the ancient dragon, which Li Qing left for them.
As children who persevered to the end, their courage and loyalty are unquestionable and they are qualified to enjoy this promotion gift.
Before being promoted to the complete ancient dragon, Li Qing had already accumulated the blood of eight ancient dragons while dormant.
After being promoted to a complete ancient dragon, Li Qing possessed 10 ancient dragon bloods, and he recovered 2 every year.
In addition to the first specialty of the adjusted complete ancient dragon law dragon body, 'Ancient Dragon Blood +1', the amount of ancient dragon blood restored each year increases by 1, and the accumulation limit is +10.
This means that his current Ancient Dragon Blood is 18/20, and he recovers 3 per year .
The bestowal of 13 ancient dragon bloods can transform these 13 meritorious space dragons into upper-level space dragons.
Space dragons all belong to the category of war behemoths. After transformation, they are no longer heroes, but they have templates and strengths that are not inferior to legendary heroes.
It just so happens that as time goes by, the total amount of ancient dragon blood accumulated in his hands will always exceed the total number of hero slots. By that time, there will be extra blood, which can be used to transform into war beasts.
As for the souls of these space dragons and dragon descendants who died in the battle, they will temporarily exist here. When this space is transformed into the kingdom of God in the future, they can be transformed into giant dragon petitioners.
Yes, this dragon kingdom can be transformed into the kingdom of God by using divine power, and then merged with the divine realm, forming two sides of the same coin.
With this, Li Qing saved the huge expense of building the kingdom of God on the other side of his own divine domain.
Having a basic space can save a lot of effort and energy, and most importantly, it saves time.
Moreover, because it was transformed from the Dragon Kingdom of the Ancient Ancestral Dragon, it has many functions of the Dragon Kingdom. After the death of the Space Dragonborn, the soul will be directly transmitted to his kingdom of God, and there is no need to connect with the God-leader.
One day later, thirteen superior dragons appeared, having recovered from their injuries and been promoted.
Long Luo, along with thirteen superior dragons and the legendary wind god pterosaur, left the Dragon Kingdom and headed west, preparing to intercept the leader of the coalition forces who had been on the run for a day and a half.
Without the teleportation spell, where can they escape to with just their legs?
In addition, many surviving high-ranking members of the Dragon Kingdom led the remaining members of the Dragon Kingdom to recruit the defeated troops nearby.
At the same time, a large number of dinosaur people rode pterosaurs and dispersed to the battlefield, using the dinosaur people's language to persuade the fleeing army to surrender, trying to persuade as many as possible.
After doing all this, Li Qing sat in the Dragon Kingdom. His huge body stood like a statue in the center of the Dragon Kingdom, accepting the worship of many people of the Dragon Kingdom, and looking at the surrendered dinosaur people with fear and expectation.
As long as he is here, there will be no chaos.
At the same time, in the distant Dragon City, many of Li Qing's subordinates already knew that Li Qing had awakened and successfully promoted to the complete form of the Ancient Dragon Ancestral.
No one told them, but when Li Qing successfully advanced to the legend, their own blood boiled, and the restrictions on advancement to legend were lifted, so they knew it naturally.
After learning the news from Xie Heng's letter, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhuo Shaohang immediately told them that he wanted to be alone for a few hours.
According to the rules, once Li Qing is promoted to Legend, he can unlock all seals and restore his sealed demigod power.
An Erqiu summoned all his companions and said loudly:
"Everyone should be able to sense that the boss has woken up. Once he has dealt with the matters over there, he can come over and take charge of the situation immediately. Everyone wait a little longer."
After saying this, he looked at Long Shou and Long Fa and asked:
"Brothers, how do you feel now?"
Long Shou nodded and said:
"I'm available any time."
Long Fa also nodded:
"Me too."
An Erqiu thought for a moment and said:
"You two should teleport to the Dragon Kingdom now and find the master. It will be easier for you to be promoted in his Dragon Kingdom."
"Don't worry about this. His Highness Zhuo Shaohang has already unsealed himself and his strength is far greater than before. With him in charge, nothing will happen."
Long Shoulong Fa nodded after hearing this.
Of course they know that they will play a greater role after being promoted to Legend.
As the two most skilled heroes under Li Qing, they have always been on the front line. In the past eight years, they have already accumulated enough combat experience to be promoted to legend. The only difference is that Li Qing has not yet been promoted to legend, and their bloodlines are restricted.
Now that Li Qing has been promoted and the restrictions have been lifted, they can be promoted to legends immediately.
The upper dragon clan, or Li Qing's saints, have no difficulty in being promoted to legends, and they do not need to use the Demon God Altar Trial in the divine realm to be promoted.
If non-saints like An Erqiu and the three Xie brothers cannot guarantee that they can be successfully promoted to legends in one go, people like Long Shoulongfa and the other five heroes of the Long family who were enlightened from the Divine Realm troops eight years ago, their promotion to legends in the future will be the same as Long Shoulongfa, without any difficulty and without the need for other methods.
Of course, this does not mean that An Erqiu and the three Xie brothers need to undergo the Demon God Altar Trial to be promoted.
As long as they accumulate enough, they can also be promoted on their own.
After all, they are the first generation descendants of the ancient dragon. They are born with the ability to master some of the laws of space. The most troublesome part of being promoted to a legend is no longer a problem for them.
This Demon Trial Field is more likely to be used by later generations in the future, such as some dinosaur dragon descendants whose bloodlines are not strong enough to be promoted to legends.
Or if the conquered territory is large enough in the future, for example, after conquering the main plane, such a huge territory will require strong people to suppress it everywhere. At that time, it will definitely be impossible to use all the upper dragons to suppress it, and a large number of ordinary heroes must be recruited.
And this Demon Trial Field can just attract those talented and destined heroes.
It is extremely difficult for a destined hero to be promoted to a legend if he is not a war lord. With this, a large number of elites will definitely be attracted.
Long Shou and Long Fa used the source of their bloodline as coordinates, opened a portal and appeared in front of the ancient dragon.
Due to the bond of blood, they will not kneel like subordinates, but will be like children coming before their father, respectful and close to him.
The ancient dragon looked at them kindly, and a whirlpool emerged and sucked them into the dragon kingdom.
The Dragon Kingdom is absolutely safe, and his dragon descendants will have a higher success rate in advancing in the Dragon Kingdom. It will be easier to come into contact with the laws of space when promoted to Legend.
As a new dragon ancestral land, it is very reasonable to have these functions.
In the Kingdom of Dragons, as the Dragon Guardians prepared to begin their ascension, endless amounts of chaotic energy gathered towards them, transforming into two huge chaotic light cocoons suspended in the chaotic void. Under Li Qing's control, waves of space fluctuations surrounded the chaotic light cocoons.
Feeling the growing bloodline of the two descendants, Li Qing nodded, withdrew his will, and turned to the other side, where a platform of chaotic energy was gathered. A large number of space dragon descendants whose strength had reached the ninth or even tenth level had gathered there.
After eight years of dormancy and the previous two years of non-use, a total of ten years, Li Qing has accumulated 240 space dragon transformation permissions. Now he has to complete the transformation in preparation for later plans.
In addition, a total of 11,000 space dragons were accumulated in ten years.
During the transformation, Li Qing was also trying to do two things at once. He used the blood bond to connect with An Erqiu and inquire about some situations.
The focus of attention is on the situation of the commander-in-chief of the lich army.
After listening to Li Qing's question, An Erqiu thought for a while and replied:
"The leader of the Illithids has not shown up yet, but a brother has discovered a mental fortress in the rear that is a thousand times larger than that of other Illithids."
"Besides that, there haven't been many legendary battles these days, except for two attempts at the beginning. One was defeated by Mr. Zhuo Shaohang, and the other was a joint attack by several masters, which was blocked by us."
"They were probably afraid that a strong attack would cause too much loss, so after some probing, they gave up the idea of sending in the legendary warriors for a strong attack and prepared to fight a war of attrition. The situation is still at a stalemate until now."
Li Qing immediately asked:
"How much have we lost, and how long can we hold out?"
An Erqiu immediately replied:
"We have lost more than 170,000 people these days, and the enemy has lost more than 350,000 people. But fortunately, all the casualties were dinosaurs, and our main force suffered almost no losses."
"The casualties are two to one!"
To be honest, the casualty ratio for defending a city is not very good. It should be at least three to one to be considered acceptable.
However, considering that Li Qing was not there at the time, An Erqiu, who was in charge of the defense of Longcheng, did not have very high talents and strategic attributes, and was definitely inferior to the attacking spirit-sucking monster's innate sacred true god-level talents. It was normal to have this battle loss ratio under the attribute suppression.
This also gave Li Qing an idea, which was to create a sufficiently powerful conventional military system.
Although the Empire's military system is good, the fifth-level promotion card is too difficult to obtain.
It is not difficult to purchase a small number, but the difficulty lies in getting a large number of level 5 Modao soldiers and Longlin heavy infantry. It is a bit awkward to rely solely on level 4 heavy infantry.
Just like in this plane, if these dinosaur people are slightly armed and trained, they can pose a huge threat to the third and fourth level imperial troops.
If they were equipped with sophisticated weapons and equipment and had sufficient training, they would definitely be stronger in frontal combat due to the dinosaur people's stronger physical fitness than humans.
Logically speaking, the dinosaurs are superior and cheap, making them suitable as regular troops.
But the dinosaur people had an important problem, that is, they had low IQ and found it difficult to understand complex tactics, which was extremely deadly on a large-scale battlefield.
To put it bluntly, it is because of insufficient evolution. If the dinosaur people had continued to evolve for tens of thousands of years, their IQ would have gradually increased.
It may not be able to reach the level of being on par with humans, but it will definitely be stronger than it is now.
So now the dinosaur people can only be cannon fodder. On the battlefield on Anerqiu's side, the task that Anerqiu assigned to them was super simple, which was to arrange a fixed defense point for each brigade, and they only needed to block this section of the city wall.
It’s not that the dinosaur people can only understand such simple tactics. They can also understand more difficult but not complicated tactics. It’s just that An Erqiu didn’t do so.
But no matter what, the dinosaur people are definitely not suitable to be the main force of conventional troops.
Therefore, he had to find a suitable replacement for the imperial military system, a military system that could at least be promoted to the fifth or even sixth level, to serve as his regular troops.
He does have some ideas, but he doesn't have time for them now. After this battle is over and the lichen war lord is eliminated or expelled from the original wild plane, there will be some time to clean up and count the entire plane, and then he will have time to deal with this matter.
