Throne of the Warlord

Chapter 116
Half a day later, Li Qing saw the troops who had just retreated from the battlefield.

This group of 1000 subordinates plus 100 dragon snakes went through a continuous day and night of fighting. When they returned, there were still 944 subordinates and 100 dragon snakes left.

No matter how good the equipment is, if you are in the front row facing the army of undead, some damage is inevitable.

And the Dragon Vein Snake has always been at the rear, under the protection of their own troops and the troops of the city-state, coupled with their own strong defense, no one died after so many days of fighting.

A hundred dragon snakes lined up in a small square on the square. Li Qing walked in front of them with a smile on his face, patted their shoulders from time to time, and praised with a smile on his face:

"My children, I have been watching your performance these days. You are very brave. You have proved your strength and courage with me, with your allies, and with your enemies. I am very satisfied!"

For these Dragon Veins and Snakes, Li Qing is their creator and reborn parent. A compliment from him, a very normal and ordinary compliment, is more meaningful to them than any reward.

As soon as he finished boasting, he could clearly see them looking at him with excited expressions.

Li Qing had an amiable expression on his face, as if he was looking at his own children, and waved to one of them, who had been promoted to the sixth level and was obviously a lot stronger than his companions.

This Dragon Veined Snake who had already been promoted to the sixth level and was even higher than Li Qing walked up to him excitedly. Li Qing patted his strong body, feeling the dragon scales emerging from his body, and said:
"Son, show me your newfound power!"

The dragon-veined snake man nodded with excitement and anxiety, took a deep breath, and with a thought, the dragon wings behind his back spread out, and he flew up with a light pat, aiming at the open space not far away in the midair of more than 30 meters, and breathed out Spray it down.

The spray range of the dragon's breath is the same as that of LV1, less than ten meters wide and less than 20 meters long, but for a unit, this range is already impressive.

The dragon's breath lasted for more than ten seconds before disappearing unsustainably. The dragon snake man slowly landed in front of Li Qing, waiting for his praise.

Of course Li Qing was not stingy, and praised him very seriously.

After the Dragon Veined Snake was promoted to the sixth rank, the dragon blood in his body was further developed, and his appearance was quite different from before.

First of all, the body is much stronger, and the tail scales used to look like snake scales, but now the tail scales have all turned into large dragon scales, and the body surface is also covered with a layer of fine scales.

In addition, after being promoted to the sixth level, his physique and strength have been greatly enhanced, and his ability to cast spells has also been strengthened, and two new bloodline spells have been added - Fire Rain and Pyroblast.

These dragon-veined snake people follow the pure-blood route, which is equivalent to a comprehensive weakened version of dragon-vein fighters and dragon-vein warlocks.

Even if you have a strong physique, you can fight in melee or cast spells, but you can't compare to Dragon Warrior and Dragon Warrior alone.

There are not many spells, just a few, basically fire spells.

Magic Missile, Searing Ray, Fireball, Fire Wall, Fire Shield, Fire Rain, Pyroblast.

The fire rain technique is a six-ring spell that can continuously rain fire within a diameter of 15 meters. It needs to be guided to cast the spell, which lasts for 15 seconds and can be interrupted at any time.

The fire rain summoned by this thing is not very lethal, but it is very powerful for clearing minions.

Pyroblast is also a six-ring spell, which can summon an enhanced version of fireball to bombard and kill the enemy. The lethality is very fierce, and it is specially used to deal with powerful targets.

With three talents plus fire and rain, the fighting power of the Dragon Vein Snake has undergone a qualitative change after being promoted to the sixth rank.

Playing against Tier [-] Extraordinary Heroes is a bit too much, and the means are too simple, but this is a unit, and it is a big killer on the battlefield. It is estimated that even among the Tier [-] units, it can be regarded as the top type.

Moreover, this guy is not without threat to heroes, and he can't do it in a one-on-one fight, but if there are more than a dozen sixth-level dragon-veined snakes joining forces, ordinary sixth-level heroes will also run away immediately.

"very good, very powerful!"

After raising them for so long, this group of dragon-veined snakes is finally coming out.

These sixteen sixth-order dragon-veined snakes are only in this batch. There are four batches in total, and each batch has many dragon-veined snakes who have been promoted to fifth-order early. How long does it take to get promoted.

Li Qing was looking forward to this very much.

A group of sixth-tier dragon-veined snake men and 26 steel golems. At this time, Li Qing's accumulated sixth-tier troops have begun to scale.

In addition, Long Shou and Long Fa have actually accumulated enough experience to be promoted to the sixth level, but Li Qing told them to wait and not to be promoted so early.

None of their talents of the three major dragon tribes is full, and the highest dragon technique is full of dragon breath, and their dragon scales and dragon wings are not yet full.

He was going to wait for a while to see if he could get more hero skill points.

Both of them are super five-star talents now. If they can accumulate enough accumulation before being promoted to Chaofan, then they can prepare enough dragon blood and add a little source of light. Their hero rank surpasses five stars and reaches the legendary level.

"The demand is huge!"

The more Li Qing thinks about it, the more he feels that hero skill points are not enough.

In addition to the three of them, An Erqiu and Xie Zhu also had to prepare some hero skill points for them, not asking for all their hero skill points to reach level five, at least give some to enhance their potential.

The two of them are quite comfortable with it. If they don't strengthen it, they will not have enough potential after they are promoted to extraordinary in the future, and they will gradually lose track of their own pace.

If the ability can keep up, but the strength can't keep up, then it will be embarrassing.

The following days were no different from the past, and the dragon snakes continued to participate in the battle to gain experience.

It is worth mentioning that, with the participation of the dragon snakes, this group of powerful mages performed very well on the battlefield, and the results were astonishing, which attracted the attention of the mage city-state.

One day, Li Qing, who was practicing, suddenly received a message that a high-ranking member of the mage tower came to visit him.

He was quite surprised to open the door to welcome the guests, and saw an old sorcerer up to the eighth level surrounded by several sixth-level extraordinary masters.

The old mage looked very old, he was very old, his exposed wrists were thin, and his skin had many age spots. What made Li Qing uncomfortable was that he looked at him strangely and felt uncomfortable.

But he didn't show it, because just looking at his rank, Li Qing could guess that this is definitely a real high-level boss in the mage city-state.

After his subordinates served tea and left, Li Qing stretched out his hand to invite the old mage to drink tea, and asked:

"I don't know who you are?"

Immediately, a younger middle-aged archmage introduced him:

"This is Speaker Carnovino among the three speakers of the city-state!"

Li Qing quickly said:

"It turned out to be Speaker Carnovino. It's a great honor to meet you. I wonder why you came to see me?"

However, the old mage looked at his subordinates behind Li Qing unexpectedly, and suddenly waved his hand to signal them to go out.

This made Li Qing both surprised and alert.

However, he didn't make any moves. This is his territory, and he has all the four talents of divinity. He will definitely not be able to beat this eighth-level archmage, but this archmage will not be able to do anything to him for a while.

As long as he is not instantly killed, he has the ability to escape.

Of course, this is the worst-case scenario. In fact, the dignified Speaker of the House cannot deliberately go to his home to assassinate him. There should be other things.

As he expected, after several mages went out, the old speaker said to Li Qing:
"We have observed you and some of your companions, and know that you come from a powerful foreign plane, and your goal is to conquer our plane."

Li Qing's heart moved slightly, but his expression was normal, and he didn't explain it.

The old mage continued:
"Don't worry, I'm not malicious, I just want to make a deal with you."

Li Qing smiled and said:

"I don't know what deal your Excellency Speaker wants to make?"

"I think His Excellency Li Qing should have a lot of dragon blood in his hands, and I would like to buy some from you."

"Uh"

This surprised Li Qing, but not too much.

Looking up at the speaker's aging appearance, he was thoughtful.

Holding his chin and meditating for a while, he asked:
"I don't know how much you want to buy, and what you can come up with to buy."

"It depends on how much dragon blood you have. You have seen the trading items we can take out before. It is the exchange slip. Everything on it can be traded."

"specific price?"

The old speaker had already prepared, took out a piece of parchment and handed it over.

Li Qing reached out to take it, and it was the list of trading items that he had seen before, but in addition to the original exchange conditions, a series of new exchange conditions were added.

He first glanced at the exchange conditions of the Floating Void City at the top, and then he was speechless.

Floating Void City needs a total of [-] standard dragon veins that are enough to awaken the blood of the dragon clan.

Li Qing only has 676 dragon veins in his hands now, not even a fraction.

Under the Floating Void City, there are many magic pattern construction designs, which include all one-star basic magic pattern constructions, several two-star magic pattern constructions, one three-star rune construction, and a second-order magic pattern combination composed of several magic patterns. Magic pattern construction set.

The cheapest of them are several basic magic patterns, and one only needs 10 magic patterns to construct.

The most expensive set is the comprehensive second-level magic pattern suit, which requires 500 dragon veins.

Further down, there is a full set of magic runes, including more than 300 basic runes, nearly 1500 rare runes, [-] ultra-rare runes, and the exchange price is [-] dragon blood.

And then.
Li Qing didn't look at it later, he put down the sheepskin, handed it back, shook his head and said:

"Sorry, your price is too expensive."

It's bullshit, there are hundreds of dragon bloodlines at every turn, let alone no, there is no such deal.

The old speaker was not angry either, but asked kindly:

"Then what price do you think is reasonable?"

"one tenth!"

Li Qing stretched out a finger, and said decisively:
"I'll change it for one-tenth of your price."

The old speaker shook his head directly:
"This is impossible. You need to know that the magic knowledge you exchanged has been passed down from generation to generation. After you buy it, you can pass it on and use it all the time."

Li Qing smiled lightly and said:
"But you can't use it anymore."

"In your current situation, it seems that these inheritances are not used, and your Excellency does not seem to use the magic pattern structure."

Li Qing continued to attack without mercy:

"You have blueprints for making the floating city, but can you make it? What's the use of it other than putting it in the warehouse to eat ashes?"

"Now that natural disasters are invading, I believe that with your ability, you should have a little understanding of the situation outside the plane, and know what exists outside the plane. At this time, you need to accumulate all the power you can accumulate, and use these useless into useful power."

"Besides."

Li Qing glanced at him and said:

"What you are selling is knowledge. After you sell it, it doesn't mean you don't have it anymore. Is it appropriate to sell such a high price for knowledge that can be sold repeatedly?"

"If I were you, I would definitely lower the price and then sell it multiple times. The overall harvest will not be lower than the original price."

"But your price is too low."

The old speaker pondered for a moment, then said:
"Perhaps the price can be lowered, how about half the original price?"

Li Qing shook his head directly:

"I'm only willing to pay one-tenth of the original price."

The old speaker's eyelids full of age spots were drooping, his eyes were squinted, and a sense of danger emerged spontaneously.

But Li Qing was not afraid at all, and said lightly:
"Are you sure what to do? You should know that I am not alone. I have powerful forces behind me. At this moment, when you are fighting against the invasion of the Scourge, can you bear the consequences?"

It's not intimidation, it's real.

As long as they dare to do something, other warlord apprentices will be vigilant, and they will definitely leave and change their strategies instead.

Originally, I wanted to take the route of peaceful transactions, but if there is no peace, there is only war.

At the critical moment of the invasion of natural disasters, the apprentices of the war lords changed from friendly troops to enemy troops. The mage city-state, which was struggling to resist the natural disaster attack, would definitely not be able to stop it.

The old speaker could also think of this, the danger in his eyes disappeared after only three seconds, he said with a smile:

"If that's the case, then I won't bother you."

As he spoke, he put away the sheepskin roll, turned around and waved his sleeves, a portal opened, and he stepped into it and disappeared.

Watching him leave, Li Qing narrowed his eyes slightly and didn't move for a while.

For the next few days, nothing unusual happened.

There was no change in the mage city-state, as before.

The men he sent were also the same as before, and they were not deliberately transferred to the front line to die.

Usually going out is not restricted, and there is no feeling of surveillance, as if nothing happened before.

But Li Qing's powerful perception felt that the matter was not over yet, and they would definitely covet the dragon blood in his hands, but the current situation did not allow them to do anything, so they had to endure it first.

It doesn't even need perception, just analyze the current situation of the mage city-state to be sure.

With the shattering of the plane and the loss of the original source, the energy level of this plane has long since disappeared.

The plane that can give birth to such a miraculous magic fortress as the floating city must have had a brilliant magic civilization in the past. There are not a few legends and powerful people, and there are even true gods.

But now the plane collapsed, the resources in the plane were exhausted, and the upper limit of strength was also limited.

If they don't find a way to solve it, their strength will become lower and lower in the future, until it will be difficult for even extraordinary powers to be born in the future.
