Throne of the Warlord

Chapter 63 War Magic and Crazy Thoughts
Seeing this, Li Qing suddenly remembered that his mentor said before that there are two civilizations in this plane, one is the snake-man civilization, and the other civilization has not been mentioned. Now it seems that there is a high probability that it is in the underground world.

There are underground worlds on many planes, and some underground creatures live in most of them, but the ruling intelligent race is not fixed.

The underground intelligent races that ordinary people think of are dark elves, underground dwarves and so on.

In fact, races such as humans, orcs, dwarves, elves, and even demons may appear underground.

Underground humans, underground elves.

It is worth mentioning that the underground elves and dark elves are not the same race, they are just elves with dark vision living underground, not the dark elves in the legend.

Now no one knows which race is in the underground of this world, and Li Qing doesn't care too much, after all, he didn't consider going underground.

The underground world is so narrow, the space in his palm is not effective, at least he can't summon meteorites inside.

Time passed slowly in this kind of silence. Outside, a large number of war lord apprentices had conflicts with local snakemen and alien races for resources. Li Qing's place was as quiet and peaceful as a paradise.

There has been no war for a long time, but it has attracted many scholars and apprentices to settle here.

Even apprentices with a small number of other mentors were attracted.

Li Qing would not refuse anyone, as long as he didn't cause trouble, he would welcome them all.

And his own rune major has been practicing for a long time, and through the space in his palm, he has been able to draw all the hundreds of runes dismantled from the magic tower in the space in his palm.

then
He successfully extracted three powerful war spell rune combinations from it.

Yes, the magic circle combined in the magic tower is a war spell, namely light spell, magic lightning, and magic barrier.

The light technique is the big ball of light that illuminates the surroundings of the town. Its real name is 'Light of War'. Combined with the Light of Civilization, it can illuminate a radius of more than ten kilometers. Lights up for several kilometers.

Magic Lightning is a purely lethal war spell. It can launch a single bolt of lightning whose pure power is only equivalent to that of a ring spell, but the killing range is as high as 30 meters * 30 meters, and the cooling time is 15 minutes.

It's the same as what Mo Wenxi and those fools said before, except they didn't say how powerful it is.

The pure power is only equivalent to a ring spell, but the killing range is large, 30 meters by 30 meters. On the battlefield, dozens or hundreds of soldiers can be crowded in this range. If it is a siege, more people will be crowded.

Low-level soldiers can't withstand the damage of a ring spell, and a magic lightning shot aimed at the gate of the city can easily kill hundreds of people in seconds.

And this is only the primary version. War spells can also increase their power, but they are too harsh.

The third war magic is 'Body Shield', which can add a magic shield to no more than 100 soldiers within the specified range to resist damage.

Group blessing shield, just think about how powerful it is.

Seeing this, Li Qing was already considering whether to get a magic book for himself.

The so-called magic book is a spell book specially used by war lords to store war spells, and only war spells are recorded in it.

The requirements for building a spellbook are very demanding, and it can be called ridiculously stringent.

First of all, very, very precious materials are required. The most common minimum standard is dragon skin, dragon skin.

Because the dragon skin is strong enough to carry war spells.

The three war spells he has mastered now are only low-level war spells. Some powerful war spells are extremely powerful, even more outrageous than the legendary hero spells of legendary heroes. The materials are not strong enough to carry them.

The second requirement is that the war lord himself has sufficient professional knowledge.

Even if you are lucky enough to get a war magic card, you have to rely on your own ability to copy the war magic on the card into your own war magic book.

You can't let others do it for you, because only you can open the war magic book, unless the owner dies.

For any war magic book, the war lord himself starts from scratch, adding war spells one by one.

If the transcription is not good, the dragon skin that has been processed with a lot of precious magic materials and man-hours will be scrapped.

It is worth mentioning that the war magic book can be inherited, but the original owner must die.

Note that it is a complete death, and the spiritual imprint is completely obliterated. If the master is dead, but not completely dead, and there is still a trace of spirit or soul lingering on, it is not considered a complete death.

Only after a complete death, the war magic book will lose its owner and be obtained by other heroes.

However, such a war magic book obtained through inheritance cannot be expanded to add new spells, and the war spells in it will consume more spells and have greater restrictions.

To use a simple example, the magic lightning cooldown time recorded in my war magic book is 15 minutes, and the war mana consumption only needs 1 point.

If the magic book is inherited by others, the mana consumption needs 2 points, and the cooling time is 30 minutes, which is directly doubled.

This so-called war mana can be replaced by divine power. 1 point of divine power is equivalent to 1 point of war mana, or 100 units of standard energy in the energy pool of God's Domain, or 100 points of personal mana is equivalent to 1 point of war mana.

Therefore, generally those who are capable of making war magic books are basically powerful mage war lords.

But then again, being able to get three war spells from the snakeman town meant that there was definitely a lot of war magic inheritance in the snakeman kingdom of this plane, and there might even be such a treasure as a war magic book.

This is real good stuff, big killer.

Even a war magic book that cannot be expanded to add new spells is still a super powerful killer.

If Li Qing had a war magic book in hand, which contained a few more war magics, no matter what type, he would be able to confront an official war lord head-on.

Of course, it means that there is no war magic book, and the war lord who has just been promoted will definitely not be able to beat the senior ones.

Or to change the metaphor, if he has a war magic book with four or five war spells, he has the ability to sweep all the apprentices under the mentor's name on the plane, and dare to attack the snake city head-on.

Even if the apprentices of the two five-star mentors come over in the future, they will be swept away.

What is a war magic book?
That is a good thing that there are not many black stone world masters. Many apprentices under the command of the two five-star mentors are direct descendants of official war lords, but it is 100% certain that there are none.

It is not even possible for most official warlords to have war spellbooks, including loot or inheritance.

Only those senior and powerful war lords may have it.

For the vast majority of war lords, they rely on hero spells, and at most one hero spell can be upgraded to level five or above with hero skill points, forming a pseudo-war spell.

Then the problem is coming.

It is estimated that Li Qing will be able to master something like a magic circle within a year, but he does not have top-level production materials.

Not to mention the dragon skin, he didn't have any animal skins of the same level as the dragon skin, nor could he afford them.

unless
Li Qing squeezed his chin, thinking about a certain possibility.

After a while, Li Qing contacted the instructor again and asked straight to the point:

"Teacher, if I sell the snake spirit luck card in hand to the academy, what price can I sell it for?"

Nie Yang thought for a moment in surprise, and said:

"It's hard to say, what do you want?"

"I want some dragon skins that have been processed to make magic scrolls. How much can I change?"

"???"

"What do you want? With your current ability, what spell scroll needs dragon skin? You don't need to make a war magic scroll."

Li Qing coughed lightly, changed the subject and said:
"This is temporarily kept secret, I don't know if it can be changed."

Nie Yang smiled and said:

"I'm sure you can change it, and you can change it a lot. After all, dragon skins are precious, but there are so many planes in Chaos Void Sea, many planes have dragons, and there are even dragon skins in some planes that are dominated by dragons. Not worth the money."

"Of course, no matter how cheap it is, it's relative. It's also a dragon skin, and it's worth money outside."

"It's not easy for you to estimate the value at the moment. In this way, I will spread the news first, and I will help you ask."

Li Qing nodded.

"By the way, dragon skin is not necessary, high-level monster skin of the same level as dragon skin is also acceptable."

"Well, I see."

After turning off the communication, Li Qing rubbed his hands, looking forward to it.

It would be great if I could get a batch of dragon skins, and then I would make my own war magic book. These three war spells alone would be very powerful now.

If there is a chance to get a few more, there are almost no opponents in the same level.

While waiting, Li Qing was not idle, and continued to sink his consciousness into the space in his palm to practice these magic runes.

Two days later, Li Qing received a message from his tutor:
"I asked for you. There are two instructors who are interested and can afford the price. One of them is willing to give out 25 pieces of standard green dragon skins that have been processed, and the other is willing to give out 20 pieces of standard red dragon skins. Which do you want?"

The so-called standard refers to the size standard used to copy the scroll, which is not much different from the pages of war magic books, and only needs to be processed briefly.

In fact, the essence of the war magic scroll is the same as that of the war magic book. There are all war spells in it, but one is sustainable and the other is one-time.

Just because it is a one-off, the material standard required for the war magic scroll will be lower.

For the same first-level magic lightning, ordinary sub-dragon skins, including hydra skins, are fine, but war magic books must use materials above dragon skins.

Both the green dragon hide and the red dragon hide are up to par, but the red dragon hide is definitely better.

Without hesitation, Li Qing said directly:

"I want those 20 standard red dragon skins."

"No problem, you take the card here first."

Li Qing nodded, and sent the Snake Qi Luck Card to the instructor through God's Domain.

If he trades with other people, there is a high probability that he will be hacked by others, but it is still no problem in the academy.

It doesn't mean how good morals are, and the academy doesn't mean that it is completely fair and just. The main reason is that although the snake spirit card is precious, it has not yet reached the point where the instructors give up everything to hack it.

A day later, Li Qing received twenty red dragon skins sent by his mentor.

Nie Yang said to him on the light curtain:

"I don't know what you're going to use this thing for. If it's copying scrolls, you'd better do it with full confidence. This thing can't be used indefinitely. Once it fails, the dragon skin will be invalidated. Be careful."

Li Qing nodded without explaining too much.

It’s really impossible to say, he can’t tell the instructor that I want to make a war magic book by myself, the instructor will not be surprised when I say it, but only think that you are crazy.

After turning off the communication, Li Qing turned around to announce the retreat, and then went into the tower of God's Domain.

The first step is to process the material.

First, the dragon skin is cut.

There is still a small difference between the size of the scroll and the size of the page, but not much, just a little cropping.

During this process, a lot of precious magic materials and special techniques are required, and the most important thing is the need for a professional laboratory.

But it became very simple for Li Qing, without using a cutting knife, just cut out the standard size, and then with a thought, the power of the space in his palm will break down the uneven edge of the dragon skin, and then...
Li Qing suddenly stopped.

After a while, he put the dragon skin aside, and with a thought, bits of powder gathered in front of him and condensed into a small piece of leather.

This is a small piece that was put together after cutting the uneven parts around the dragon skin just now.

After thinking for a while, he stretched out his hand and pointed, and the small piece of dragon skin shattered into powder again. Then Li Qing closed his eyes, and slowly felt the material of the dragon skin through the power of the space in his palm.

After closing his eyes for a while, with a thought in his mind, a large amount of matter stored at the edge of the space flew in front of him and collapsed into powder, and then quickly rearranged according to his mind.

In less than a second, a piece of leather that was exactly the same size as a dragon's skin appeared in front of him.

Touch the real dragon skin with your left hand, and the newly synthesized dragon skin with your right hand. Feel it carefully, and the feel is almost exactly the same.

I pinched and rubbed it with both hands, and the texture was almost exactly the same.

But Li Qing shook his head:
"no!"

There is almost no difference between the feel, texture and appearance, but the inner essence is completely different.

Or to put it another way, the internal texture of the big dragon skin he made is exactly the same as the real dragon skin, which can be called a dragon skin, but there is one key thing missing inside, that is, the power of the dragon clan.

The reason why dragon skins can be used as top-level magic materials and equipment production materials is mainly due to the dragon power contained in dragon skins.

The power of the dragon family endows the dragon skin with strong toughness and damage tolerance, as well as the most critical mana orientation and mana capacity limit, as well as supernatural factors such as mana shock resistance and magic resistance.

And these fake dragon skins he made didn't have it, only the basic physical resistance of the dragon skin.

In other words, what he produced was just a super-tough dragon skin with the same texture as dragon skin. It only had the physical defense of dragon skin, but it did not have extraordinary properties such as magic resistance and mana extension.

In other words, this thing can block a heavy crossbow arrow, but without fire, it can be easily blasted through with a fireball.

Of course, it's also ridiculous.

More importantly, this is a fake dragon skin that can be produced in batches through golden fingers.

It's just that it can't be used as a magic material, or even used as armor.
