Throne of the Warlord

Chapter 29 Dragon Shou's Fire Dragon's Breath

"Huh? How dare he start the fifth round of challenges?"

Zhang Jishan, who was making final preparations for the fifth round of assessment, immediately saw that Li Qing, who was ranked No.4 on the top, suddenly jumped to No.1, and it showed that he was in the fifth round of challenges.

It is not surprising that some people dare to challenge the fifth round. In his opinion, at least three or four of the many apprentices will continue to challenge. Among them, he and Cao Wenyuan will try to challenge the fifth round.

But in his mind, Li Qing was definitely not the one who could challenge for the fifth round.

Before leaving the academy, he had roughly figured out the general family backgrounds of the dozen or so apprentices under the mentor's name. Apprentices like Li Qing who possessed powerful talents but had ordinary backgrounds were not in his eyes.

Although the four-star talent is good, but according to the normal growth rate, it will take at least two years to pose a threat to oneself, so it can be ignored now.

He didn't expect that this classmate, who should have been ignored, would be so kind, and dare to start the fifth round of challenges. This is a difficulty that he doesn't even have much confidence in.

Not only him, but the other apprentices who were determined to try did not have much confidence, and were also surprised by Li Qing's sudden challenge, and
"No, I have to prepare to start, otherwise there will be too much time gap, and even if I win, I won't be able to get the core of the God's Domain building."

Although he didn't think that Li Qing could successfully complete the fifth round of assessment, he even thought that Li Qing might just want to experience it and would give up later, but this also reminded him that the advantage in the starting hand is quite important in the competition with Cao Wenyuan .

From the beginning to the end, he regarded Cao Wenyuan, and only Cao Wenyuan was his biggest competitor.

Li Qing's background is mediocre, and his talent is also a late apprentice, so he doesn't pay attention at all.

Two minutes later, Chief Zhang Jishan was also ready to start the fifth round of assessment.

Less than a minute later, the second seat, Cao Wenyuan, was also ready to start the fifth round of assessment.

Gongsun Jin and Chu Zaizhong hesitated again, but were still not sure about continuing.

As for other apprentices, some of them have not even completed the fourth round of assessment, so it is naturally impossible to continue.

In the canyon, Li Qing stood at the rightmost corner of the city wall. From here, he could see the black skeletons coming from the seven or eight meter wide canyon on the other side of the corner like a tide. It was daunting from a distance.

"If I don't cheat like this, I can't stop it at all."

"But I can cheat, and the others can't cheat like me!"

Li Qing looked at the transparent light curtain in the upper right corner, which showed that several other apprentices had started the fifth round of trials, and frowned.

Obviously, in terms of real strength, he is likely to be worse than them, at least he really dare not go up without cheating.

"However, this is only temporary. With my golden finger and my talent, I will surpass them soon!"

Li Qing let out a breath, with firm eyes, and took a step back.

The fine clicking sound approached quickly, and soon a large number of skeletons were seen rushing to the corner of the canyon, and rushed to the city wall like a tide.

Li Qing stood on the top and looked down. There were skeletons all over the bottom, packed so densely that it was creepy.

But
He looked at the defensive weapons prepared on the city wall, coupled with the restricted environment, it was actually not difficult to defend this wave of skeletons.

In fact, there are not many defensive weapons, except for rolling stones, there are only some wooden pole weapons that were made temporarily before.

It is mainly for infantry. After all, the city wall is four meters high, and the long swords they bring cannot reach them, and it is impossible for them to go down to fight. They can only be equipped with other defensive weapons.

The weapon is very simple, a prismatic round wooden ball with a diameter of one meter, connected with a thick rope in the middle, when making it, directly tie the thick rope to a stone and bury it in the wood, and seal it inside after the wooden ball is synthesized .

During the battle, several infantrymen worked together to push down the wood embedded with stones. With the strength of the bones of these skeletons, as long as they hit the neck bone, they would definitely not be able to bear it and it would break.
"Crack!"

Four prismatic wooden balls rolled down the platform at the edge of the parapet, and there was a series of crisp cracking sounds.

Then every four infantrymen work together to slowly drag the wooden ball up.

Anyway, the skeleton can't break through the city wall, so it can be dragged slowly.

In addition to these, he also made many long-handled wooden hammers. The handle is five meters long, and the hammer head is only about [-] centimeters.

Although the efficiency is not high, it can play a role anyway.

The most annoying thing in it is Long Shou, he can control a prismatic wooden ball by himself.

He smashed the ball with one hand, and then easily lifted it up and smashed it down again by himself.

Repeatedly, one blow is a big hole, and the killing efficiency is very high.

There are indeed a large number of skeleton archers in the sea of ​​skeletons as the instructor said, but the skeleton archers behind this corner position have no room to play. There are not many archers in the small space in front of them, and the threat is not great.

As for the third-tier undead knight hero, it will be stuck behind the sea of ​​undead, and it will be difficult for a while.

However, it can be felt that these undead are already preparing to use that tactic. A large number of skeletons are going to die one after another. I don't know how many skeletons are broken under the city wall, and a thick layer of skeletons has been piled up.

But this problem is not big. To complete the project of filling the city wall, a lot of skeletons are needed.

Although the individual skeletons are large, they don't take up much space after being smashed. Layers of bone crushing shops want to reach a height of four meters, and at least hundreds or even nearly a thousand skeletons must be large.

Li Qing has now prepared three layers of defense, which can fill in at least [-]+ skeletons.

Moreover, there are multiple sections of city walls in the space in his palm, and two more lines of defense can be built to trap more than 1000 skeletons.

In the end, there are more than 1000 skeletons left, and even if there is no need for a city wall, they can fight together.

But having said that, I probably never thought that someone would cheat like this in the assessment.

"Really."

"A good survival challenge for you to play as a city defender, and there are five layers of city walls."

Even Nie Yang and a few teaching assistants couldn't help but smile wryly when they saw this scene, but they didn't say anything to stop them. The dozen or so apprentices behind had weird faces, but since the instructor didn't say anything, they naturally wouldn't say anything.

Ten minutes later, the smashed bone fragments under the city wall had been filled to a thickness of almost two meters, and a large number of skeletons continued to come to die. The pale skulls under the city wall were more than one meter away from the city. It can already be obtained in the cracks of the battlements of the parapet.

"It's really fast!"

Li Qing looked back at the back of the city wall, thinking about waiting for a while before retreating to the second section of the city wall behind.

However, something unexpected happened to Li Qing.

Something happened that he hadn't considered before.

That is. Long Shou has been upgraded.

It is not difficult to upgrade the first few steps, not to mention his killing efficiency is so fast.

Killing hundreds of skeletons in one go, he had already accumulated enough experience at level 18 and 94% of his experience, so he was promoted to level 20, thus promoted to a second-tier hero, gaining a little hero skill point and a little hero specialty point.

When he heard Long Shou's sudden shout and his aura suddenly soared, Li Qing was stunned for a moment before reacting.

After quickly checking Long Shou's attributes, Li Qing showed a smile on his face.

Instantly unlocks optional hero powers.

Hero Skill: Dragon's Breath LV1: Activate the original power in the dragon's blood, and after a short charge, it will spray out the flame dragon's breath in the front range. The dragon's breath is divided into two forms: cone and ray. physical strength.

Cone: The maximum width is 5 meters, the longest distance is 12 meters, and the lethality is 100% of its own maximum attack power.

Ray: 5 cm in diameter, the longest distance is 50 meters, and the lethality is 300% of its own maximum attack power.

Tier [-] hero specialty - dragon breath enhancement.

Option 30: Dragon's breath cone power +100%, ray power +[-]%.

Option 2: The maximum width of the dragon's breath cone is +5 meters, and the maximum distance is +[-] meters.

Option 20: The longest distance of the dragon's breath ray is +1 meters, and the penetration is +[-].

No need to think about the environment at this time and here, the new hero skill must choose Dragon's Breath.

As for the strengthening of hero specialties, choose the second item, which increases the range of dragon breath.

Hero: Dragon Guard.

Occupation: Dragon Warrior.

Level: Level 20.

Basic skills: running LV4, archery LV3, one-handed LV4, two-handed LV1, pole LV1, throwing LV1.

Advanced skills: dual wielding weapons LV1.

Hero talent: dragon blood LV1.

Hero specialties: dragon scale enhancement +1, dragon breath enhancement +1.

Hero skills: Dragon Scale LV1, Dragon Breath LV1.

In addition to adding a new hero skill, Long Shou gained several new skills in this test, namely two-handed weapons, pole weapons, throwing, and advanced skills-dual wielding weapons.

The levels are all LV1, which are new skills acquired by oneself.

It's worth mentioning that non-destiny-human indigenous heroes like Long Shou don't have skill points for leveling up. They can only improve their basic skills by practicing and fighting.

After the advancement was completed, Long Shou slowly stood up, his joints cracking non-stop.

He jumped to the far right side of the city wall, rushed to the edge of the canyon on the side, clasped his fingers into the stone wall to fix his figure, turned around and looked at the other direction at the corner of the [-]-degree canyon, densely packed with undead Crowding the entire canyon, stretching to the end.

Without showing any signs, the dragon scales on Long Shou's body slowly glowed with blood, and soon his whole body was enveloped in blood flames as if burning.

I saw him open his mouth, and the inside of his mouth turned red quickly, and there was a stream of flames converging inside, which quickly turned into a whirlpool of flames.

After accumulating power for a few seconds, a fiery flame burst out from Long Shou's mouth.

It was not big when it first sprayed out, but it quickly became thicker and bigger after the exit, and soon turned into fan-shaped flames and sprinkled into the valley below.

The power of the dragon's breath is already powerful. Without using hero specialties to enhance the power, the power of a hero is equivalent to a few levels of spells. Long Shou is a second-level hero, which means that the power of this breath of dragon has reached the second level.

And these skeletons didn't even have a first level, and they breathed down with a breath, and burned when they touched it.

Things like bones can be burned with ordinary fire. The dragon's breath belongs to the extraordinary breath of the dragon clan. After one mouthful, the skull covered by the flame dragon's breath burns from the bones to black ashes in less than two seconds, and is blown away by the wind.

A mouthful of dragon breath has a maximum width of 7 meters and a maximum length of 17 meters after the enhanced range.

In this coverage area, there are probably at least two hundred or more skeletons densely packed.

A mouthful of dragon's breath can consume 15% of Longshou's physical strength, and when the undead behind are pushed to refill the area that was just burnt out, he charges up and sprays out another mouthful of dragon's breath.

After spraying five mouthfuls in a row, more than a thousand skeletons were reduced to ashes.

Even with the last sip, Li Qing asked him to adjust the angle and spray it under the city wall, burning all the bone slag that was more than two meters thick under the city wall.

The strong burnt smell permeated the space, making Li Qingkuai on the city wall unable to open his eyes.

Fortunately, the enemy couldn't come up to the city wall, so there was enough time for the scorched smoke to dissipate.

After the five mouthfuls of flaming dragon's breath were sprayed, although Long Shou still had some strength, Li Qing didn't let him continue. He returned to the city wall to rest and recover his strength.

Long Shou's sudden promotion disrupted Li Qing's plan.

With a large-scale spell like Dragon Breath, there is no need to retreat at all.

Letting his subordinates continue to guard, Li Qing pulled Long Shou to the back of the city wall, put his consciousness into the space in his palm, and began to decompose the wolf meat stored before, and extract the essence of flesh and blood from it.

Because Long Shou does not follow the route of a dragon vein warlock, so there is no such thing as mana. The dragon breath he casts is like a spell, which consumes his own physical strength. There is no limit to the number of times he can use it, but the physical strength consumed is based on a percentage, so he can spit it out every day. A limited number of times.

The best way to restore physical strength is of course to eat, eat high-energy meat.

It's just that there is only wild wolf meat on hand now, which is not a high-energy food, and it takes a lot to restore the full strength of Longshou.

But in another way, extract the flesh essence of a large amount of wild wolf meat and condense it into a crystal of flesh essence. This is the highest quality high-energy food, which is very popular with top extraordinary creatures.

Even real giant dragons and other legendary monsters like to eat this kind of crystallization of flesh and blood essence, which is regarded as one of the hard currencies among high-end war lords.

All the previously stored wolf meat was decomposed in one breath and refined into flesh and blood essence, which was only the size of a pigeon egg.

But such a small one has recovered more than half of Long Shou's physical strength.

In addition, there are eleven egg-sized blood and flesh essences stored in the space in his palm, which came from the previous two thousand kobolds condensed.

As soon as his physical strength recovered, Long Shou rejoined the battle.

But this time he didn't continue to breathe out the flame dragon's breath. Now he doesn't have the crystallization of flesh and blood essence to restore his physical strength. If he exhausts his physical strength, he can only wait for natural recovery, which is very slow.

The remaining stamina needs to be saved, and when the undead hero gets closer, the dragon guard will burst out and kill the hero.

Once the undead heroes die, these undead lose their command, and the threat will plummet.

Just as the pressure on Li Qing's side was greatly reduced, and he was about to covet the undead hero, the battles in the other challenge spaces had also entered a fierce state.

The first is Mo Wenxi. After the fourth round of challenges, he decisively changed his troops, took back all the previous infantry archers, and pulled out a knight hero and 22 imperial cavalry from his own domain.

Among them are 9 Tier 13 Imperial Heavy Cavalry and [-] Tier [-] Imperial Lancers.

The hero is an indigenous knight hero with a rarity of two stars, but his rank has been raised to the third rank, and his combat effectiveness is extremely strong.
