Chapter 58: Who threw stones into the toilet?
Li Qing took Long Shou on a giant eagle and circled over the swamp. Although there were many pieces of land that emerged from the water in the swamp, these pieces of land were very wet and soft. Some were simply formed by the accumulation of plants grown in the swamp, and it was impossible for the troops to stand there.
To deal with these seven-headed lizards, you need to rely on troops to clear the area in the early stages, and only elites can be used to deal with them head-on in the later stages.
But with Li Qing's current strength, he would definitely not be able to defeat this seven-headed lizard head-on.
There is even a problem now. If he attacks in the normal way, he will definitely not be able to defeat the army composed of many war lord apprentices on the edge of the swamp.
You have to surprise everyone with your victory.
But after thinking about it, the only surprising thing is to summon a meteorite.
And we have to be quick. If we wait until the army outside has cleared out the lizardmen in the swamp, accidents could easily happen.
"That's it, give it a try first!"
Li Qing was not opposed to using this trick again. It was his trump card. Why not use it if it was useful?
At the same time, Xiang Junde, who was at the edge of the Great Swamp, was dispatching troops after discussing with several other apprentices under the name of four-star mentor Lu Jun, and was preparing to attack a lizardman tribe on the other side of the swamp, near the edge of the swamp.
Xiang Junde ranked tenth among the 16 war lord apprentices under the four-star mentor Lu Jun. This time, he joined forces with several others with lower rankings to form a coalition and advance and retreat together.
Even though they are ranked last, each of them is stronger than Cao Wenyuan and Zhang Jishan, and the three of them combined can form a force of nearly fifteen thousand.
Although many of them are new recruits, it is a skill to be able to support so many troops.
With so many troops, they already have the strength to attack the snakeman town head-on, but it is inconvenient to march in this huge swamp. There is mud and water everywhere, and poisonous snakes are everywhere, which greatly limits their performance.
There was a circle of soft, rotten grass at the edge of the swamp, extending all the way to the foot of the mountain at the edge of the basin. The team marched slowly along the edge of the swamp. From time to time, they saw soldiers stepping into the mud and their teammates had to stop to rescue them. The marching speed was very slow.
"This damn terrain is so bad!"
A hero chopped a poisonous snake hidden in the mud into several pieces with a sword, and couldn't help but complain to the lord not far away:
"Boss, don't look for targets in this kind of terrain next time. It will affect the performance of our brothers."
Xiang Junde, who was not far away, was also walking with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and he was not in a good mood. After listening to his subordinates' complaints, he nodded and said:
"I didn't expect the swamp to be so difficult to navigate. I'll move to another place after this job."
At this time, another man next to him said:
"By the way, have you heard something? It seems that there are unexpected circumstances in this development."
"What accident?"
"I heard that originally there were only six mentors dividing up this plane fragment, but I heard that a wave of chaotic wind coming from the distant void is about to blow through this plane, which has attracted the attention of two five-star mentors. I heard that they also want to participate in this development."
"Who told you that? How is that possible? Didn't the two five-star mentors open the plane channel themselves and descend to the real plane? How could they compete with us for this plane fragment?"
"Although the Wind of Chaos can bring some opportunities that only official war lords can encounter, the dangers that come with it are also great. Even the top elites under the name of five-star mentors may not be able to withstand it."
"I don't know about that. Anyway, I heard it from the top three people, and I don't know whether it's true or not."
"That's probably fake. This doesn't comply with the rules. Besides, our six mentors are not pushovers. We have already allocated the benefits. Even a five-star mentor cannot violate the rules at will."
"Who cares? If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. If this really happens, it's not us who should be worried, but the top three seats under the names of the two four-star mentors. Let's unite and find a suitable place to expand the divine domain and develop it with peace of mind."
"Yes, as long as we don't have the mindset of competing for rankings, no matter how big the problem is, it won't be a problem."
"Okay, let's work harder and wipe out this lizardman tribe. In a few days, we will wipe out another large lizardman tribe. The remaining lizardmen in the swamp will no longer pose a threat to us. Then we can focus on attacking the seven-headed lizard."
Several people talked to each other, and were full of confidence in the future.
However, they did not notice that at this moment, a giant eagle was rapidly rising in the sky in the center of the swamp.
Li Qing stood on the back of the giant eagle, looking at the sky expressionlessly.
After taking Long Shou back to the divine realm, he began to plan.
It was the same method used to destroy the snakeman town before, with an artificial meteorite.
He had no other choice. He couldn't mobilize all his troops to engage in a head-on confrontation with the three war lord apprentices.
We can't not use it just because we don't know whether the treasure chest will still exist after we use a meteorite to blast the seven-headed lizard into a pulp.
Knowledge and experience are all drawn from practice. The experience taught by the tutor is also what the tutor has experienced or seen. Since the tutor has not seen this situation, you can only experiment by yourself.
Anyway, no matter what the result is, give it a try first.
If it really is smashed to pieces, then so be it, at least I have gained some experience.
The altitude of this flight is about the same as the last time, also around five thousand meters. It is definitely no problem to destroy a town and kill a seven-headed lizard in seconds.
Although this thing is an extraordinary-class behemoth, it has no ability to cast spells except spitting acid and poison. It is definitely at the bottom among the extraordinary-class behemoths.
It is worth mentioning that the Divine Realm can raise this powerful behemoth as a war behemoth. Like heroes, the Divine Realm can sign a contract with this extraordinary behemoth. After becoming a war behemoth, they can break the species limit and continue to advance.
However, there is only one spot for such a war beast before becoming a formal war lord, so you need to choose carefully.
The giant eagle slowly flew to an altitude of five thousand meters. At this time, it was pitch black below. Even the light ball on the top of one of the seven-headed lizard's heads was only a dim little light dot, which was very difficult to locate.
But it was not a big problem. After Li Qing used the light magic to position himself and the dim light spot in a straight line, he opened the space in his palm and threw down a huge rock with a diameter of ten meters.
Then he moved sideways to the right for about ten meters, took out the second boulder and threw it down.
Then move left about thirty meters, take out the third boulder and throw it down.
Then, move horizontally to the front and back of the first location and drop the fourth and fifth boulders respectively.
Since it's hard to aim, just throw a few more to cover it.
Five huge rocks cut through the void, and soon they rubbed against the space violently and burned, turning into five meteorites that fell into the swamp at different times.
At the edge of the swamp, an army is attacking a lizardman tribe located at the edge of the swamp.
A huge ball of light magic rose into the air, illuminating the battlefield within a radius of hundreds of meters.
The well-equipped imperial infantry formed a long snake array in the front row to resist the attack of the Lizardmen soldiers. Groups of archers and crossbowmen formed a formation in the rear, pouring arrows and crossbow bolts at the Lizardmen at the edge of the swamp.
The Lizardmen also have quite a few archers. Although their bows are made of wood, they are quite powerful. Moreover, there are a large number of them, so when they gather together they can pose a considerable threat.
The ground was littered with corpses, blood had seeped into the mud, and many of the potholes were filled with blood.
Xiang Junde and two other war lord apprentices stood at the rear of the army, constantly issuing orders to command the troops and adjust the positions of the army.
With their equipment advantage and numbers that were no less than those of the Lizardmen, they quickly gained the upper hand.
Seeing that it was only a matter of time before the lizardman tribe was wiped out, the three war lord apprentices breathed a sigh of relief, with relaxed expressions on their faces.
"After we wipe out this wave, there will only be the last one left. Without the interference of the lizardmen, we can grind the seven-headed lizard to death after paying a certain price."
"A treasure chest of this level will have at least 50 points of essence. There is a high probability that a heroic treasure will appear, and a small probability that a relic treasure will appear. No matter what kind of treasure it appears, it can quickly improve our strength."
"It would be great if we could find a troop nest. Then we can..."
"Don't dream. Unless you have the ability to capture the capital of the Serpent Man Kingdom, you might be able to gather a Serpent Man army nest."
"Hey, it's not okay to just dream!"
"Okay, you can dream, but this dream is a little outrageous. Let's change to a more appropriate dream!"
“Tsk, nothing… eh?”
"what is that?"
"What?"
"In the sky."
"What in the sky..."
"meteor?"
"No, this is just a plane fragment. How can a meteor come from without an attached plane?"
"No, this is not a meteor, this is a meteorite. Someone summoned a meteorite?"
"That's impossible. Meteorites can only be summoned by great mages above level 6, and the academy has a rule that apprentices are not allowed to bring in spell scrolls above the extraordinary level. Is someone breaking the rules?"
" Probably not. They may be native to this world. The Serpent Kingdom can even build a magician tower, so it's not surprising that they have extraordinary magicians."
"No, that's in the middle of the swamp, where the meteorite landed..."
The three of them looked at each other, feeling a sense of uneasiness.
"Withdraw quickly!"
"That's too late!"
No sooner said than done, a meteor came roaring with a long tail of flame and fell straight into the center of the swamp.
The seven-headed lizard that was sleeping soundly in the middle of the swamp sensed a huge threat and woke up at the moment the meteorite fell. Its seven long heads stretched out and swung around, and its huge body slowly opened, just in time to see five meteorites wrapped in flames falling from the sky and whizzing towards it.
There was no time to dodge, and the seven-headed lizard only had time to let out a roar before a huge meteorite came crashing down.
Accompanied by a deafening roar, flames surged in all directions like a tide.
At the moment the first meteorite fell, another four meteorites fell one after another. Layer after layer of flames exploded, and surged in all directions like waves.
Less than three seconds after the last meteorite fell, Li Qing felt a powerful warm current rushing into his body.
He realized instantly that the seven-headed lizard was dead.
“So cool!”
It feels so good to defeat a boss that others have to work hard and worry about for a long time, but I can easily solve it in just a few minutes.
However, although it is fun, there is also a disadvantage to this operation, which is that the subordinates are inexperienced.
Neither the heroes nor the troops under your command can gain any experience, so all the benefits are taken by yourself.
Therefore, this operation is only suitable for accumulating original capital in the early stage. When the original capital has been accumulated almost, it is still necessary to develop in a serious manner.
No matter how powerful you are, you can only be strong as a whole. The real strength is the overall strength, especially the divine realm. This is related to your future promotion to legend and even to the cohesion of the divine throne. You need to develop the divine realm.
Compared with the true God's kingdom, which is restricted to the plane of birth and constrained by faith, it will decline or even fall in rank if it leaves the plane where the source of faith is located.
The divine domain of the War Lord's throne is carried with you, and no matter which plane or world you go to in the heavens and myriad realms, its power will not diminish.
Li Qing descended rapidly on the giant eagle, ignoring the hot air rising from the center of the crater, and pounced to the bottom of the crater. He opened the space in his palm and collected the meteorite that had shrunk a lot due to burning. He then saw a completely intact ball of light hanging in the twisted hot air at the bottom of the crater. He quickly picked up the ball of light and threw it into the space in his palm.
As for the seven-headed lizard, not even a trace of it was left.
Then, he collected several other meteorites not far away one after another, and the Black Hawk soared into the night sky.
At this time, the army at the edge of the swamp was fleeing towards the edge of the swamp in a panic with the Lizardmen.
With such a huge meteorite hitting, the violent swamp water mixed with mud formed waves of mud dozens of meters high that surged in all directions. How could they dare to stay here any longer?
But how could human legs outrun a tsunami? When they struggled to climb to a small hill at the edge of the swamp, mud waves dozens of meters high came towards them and drowned them.
“Ahem!”
After waiting for one mud wave after another to sweep past, Xiang Junde waited for a while and hugged a tree tightly to stabilize himself. He wiped the smelly swamp mud on his face, spat out a mouthful of black water, and looked up to check his surroundings.
"grass!"
Tang Luo, who was hugging the same tree nearby, opened his mouth and spat out smelly water, his face full of pain.
It took nearly half an hour to gather the troops one after another. A group of people sat down on the ground. Several apprentices of the war lord stared at the center of the swamp with lifeless eyes, looking confused.
"grass!"
"It's so unethical, throwing stones in the toilet."
"do not move!"
Xiang Junde came up to Tang Luo, put out his hand to feel around Tang Luo's ear and pulled hard. Tang Luo cried out in pain, and then saw in Xiang Junde's hand a leech whose body had become transparent and engorged with blood after sucking so much.
"grass!"
He jumped up as if his butt was on fire and fumbled around all over his body.
"Everyone check each other to see if there are leeches."
A few seconds later, someone took out a wireworm from a soldier's ear, someone had an itchy back and pinched out several leeches from his back, someone had an itchy anus and pulled out a worm that looked like a loach but had a mouth full of sharp teeth that bit the anus and wouldn't let go, but there were more of them were some unknown swamp worms, and many soldiers began to have fever and vomiting and diarrhea.
"Damn it, I can't stay in this crappy place for even a second. Let's go."
Xiang Junde...
"I'd better open the divine realm first and go back to take a shower. It's too uncomfortable."
“I think that’s great advice.”
A group of unlucky guys hurriedly opened the divine domain and recalled the troops. On the other side, Li Qing had already left the swamp on a giant eagle and stopped at an unknown hill. He couldn't wait to reach his hand into the space in his palm and into the ball of light.
