Lord of Rot

Chapter 659 Star Observers

At some point, a saying began to spread in the world: He who finds the sword in the stone will win the world.

After defeating Duke Crabbe, the strongest dragon knight, the Bacon Fortress became famous. Even the green dragon's ability to easily ravage the golden dragon was said to be due to bloodline suppression, and the reason was analyzed in a serious manner.

The most important thing is the sword.

It turns out that it's not just a specific person who gets the sword, but anyone who gets the sword.

To make a story be believed is not to present the facts to ordinary people's eyes, but to adapt the story into what the public most wants to hear.

Before Li Qi intervened, the legend about the sword in the stone became more and more mysterious. Even he himself sometimes wondered whether he really hit the right mark. That sword was not an ordinary sword, but could lay the foundation for the whole realm. The sword of kingship?

As night falls, an unexpected storm covers Li Qi's potion cultivation garden.

The surging cold wind was like ocean waves, beating wildly on the branches of the potion, bending them down and causing the leaves to tremble.

The knowledge of the night elves combined with the wights seemed to have an effect on the plants.

While watching the slender corpse Shu Ya moving his buttocks and moving with difficulty, Li Qi suddenly felt that his idea was very interesting.

This is a magical world. Trees can turn into tree warriors, so why can't they turn into ghouls?

There was a hole in the clouds above Li Qi's head as he stood in the rain, and Yu took the initiative to avoid him.

Even though it was raining heavily next to him, there was not a trace of moisture on his body.

The storm became more violent and unbridled.

Li Qi also discovered the problem with his own ghoul. As a basic unit for development and combat, its genes were too confusing, resulting in different cultivation costs, high or low, and its combat capabilities were too limited.

For an army, heroism is always the most useless. Only when all members are qualified or even excellent can victory be achieved.

This is especially true for race.

I didn't have the ability to handle it before, but now after integrating all aspects of knowledge, it is not difficult to reconstruct the divisions.

But this inevitably leads to another path, similar to that of the Behemoth race, where each new life determines the responsibilities it will bear for the rest of its life before it is born.

It seems that the development of racial genes has reached the end, and elites and order are the last choices.

Li Qi thought about it, but gave up on this seemingly perfect solution. Compared with losing the possibility of evolution for the race, the so-called cost and efficiency are not too important, because he can already supplement resources through external civilization conquests, and the cost is not question.

"Boom!"

Suddenly there was thunder in the sky, and the sound and light came almost at the same time.

Li Qi turned to look behind him.

The Grand Duke of Toads and the King of Goblins, one tall and one short, have a tacit understanding of their disgusting ugly appearances, making them seem extremely well-matched.

The "master", Grand Duke Poisonous Toad, rubbed his hands like a fly, his protruding eyes rolling restlessly in his sockets: "Those humans started to resist."

The goblin king standing under the Grand Duke Poisonous Toad was also in a miserable situation at this time. A large amount of rainwater flowed through the Grand Duke Poisonous Toad first, mixed with the poisonous sores, and poured on the goblin's head with a weird and uneasy color.

The Grand Duke Poisonous Toad was still talking: "I'm afraid our army won't be able to resist for long, right...!" He raised his knee and touched the goblin lightly. Unexpectedly, the goblin fell to the ground with a thud, his body twitching.

Having guessed the reason, the Poisonous Clam Archduke immediately took a step to the side to prevent the goblin from being poisoned by his bath water.

Li Qi said: "Then let the legends appear. How many dragon knights do they have, three or five? Our high-level combat capabilities are not bad either."

He looked at the Grand Duke Poisonous Clam, his meaning was obvious.

There is a strong man here who can control the dragon at will, that is you, Grand Duke Poisonous Toad. As long as you appear on the stage, you will be able to suppress the opponent's top combat power. If the bottom layer continues to use the human sea tactic, victory is still ours.

The Grand Duke of Poisonous Toad drooped his eyelids and bowed his back, showing great grievance and fear.

However, from the gaps between his eyelids that were not tightly closed, his eyes could still be seen rolling around. The so-called pretending to be pitiful was a deliberate act.

"Humans and the aquatic kingdom are closely connected. If I take action, I'm afraid you will never see me again."

After being quiet for a while, probably because he felt that his emotional cards were of no use, the Grand Duke Poisonous Toad said: "Even the swamps and goblins cannot stop the human empire. War will make humans stronger and stronger."

"If you can't stop it, give up, but it must hurt," Li Qi emphasized: "You can run away, but you can't suffer a loss."

"I understand!" Grand Duke Poisonous Toad understood instantly.

Although the venom is on the surface of the skin, it does not mean that the poisonous clam is pure in heart.

With the goal of conquering cities and territories, goblins and swamp monsters are inherently at a disadvantage. Lack of organization and discipline is a major weakness, and lack of ability to apply and manufacture tools is a second weakness.

That is to say, you can attack, but you cannot defend.

In other words, if you use a suicide attack to interfere, but show no mercy to the looted positions, then the Maggie people will have a headache.

The Grand Duke of Poisonous Toad bent down and grabbed King Jing's ankle, and carried it back step by step until it was out of Li Qi's sight, then he used his hind legs to exert force and scurried away in the most "toad" way.

Li Qi's attention was always on the corpse tree people he cultivated.

He waved, and the leaves waved towards him.

"Although this version cannot be moved, it is a perfect signal tower." Li Qi was very happy: "It's just right. Let's send you back to the Rhodes Elf Forest first."

……

"Which one is it today?"

"It seems to be the Yog Dragon Knight. He rides a sapphire dragon. Every time he spreads his wings, he can set off a dazzling gemstone storm. The light passes through the sapphire stardust whirlwind, stinging people and blinding them."

"Will he win? Or..."

"I think it's very suspenseful. Don't forget, even Duke Crabbe lost, and that's the number one dragon knight!"

"I remember that Duke Crabbe lost to another person, it seems to be the Green Dragon Knight."

"Green dragon, do you believe it? The size difference between them is so huge, it's as ridiculous as if a hen at home pecked an eagle to death!"

In the fields, farmers chatted, looking to the limit of their sight, where there was only a small black dot.

It looked like a fly. You had to squint to see clearly, but it turned out that the thing had wings.

The attacking goblins and monsters had no idea what their plans were, and they captured the empire's top combat power every time. No matter how great the loss is, those monsters are determined to drag someone down.

After losing two top powerhouses one after another, the empire finally reacted.

In order to protect the top power, the empire also thought about preventing the masters from appearing, but in exchange, the monsters attacked more crazily, and the territory was lost one after another. The top combat power has to go to the battlefield again.

But with the defeat of Duke Crabbe, the first dragon knight, the myth of the dragon knight's invincibility seems to have been broken.

This is also the first time people know that there are so many terrifying characters in the world who can cause natural disasters.

In the sky, the "fly" suddenly burst into dazzling light. The farmers lowered their heads and rested their faces on their forearms, but they still couldn't avoid the tears.

"Ouch——" a mournful cry came out.     “Did you hear that?”

"Look!"

"Sapphire Dragon, fell down!"

The war was declared over when the "fly" in the farmers' sight had one of its wings cut off, and they could not hear more.

All I know is that the Empire lost this battle again.

News of defeat one after another exploded in the capital like fireworks. Many nobles and big businessmen chose to avoid the limelight temporarily.

Looking at the attack route of the swamp monsters, their destination must be directly towards the royal capital. If they stay here, they are waiting to die. It is better to hide somewhere else. They also had a small amount of assets in the territories of other races. At that time, they just wanted to have a place to stay, but unexpectedly it became a safe house to save their lives.

"what happened?!"

The face of the man on the throne became darker and darker.

"There seems to be a reason." The king said cautiously: "That, Elf Princess."

In fact, the king had already heard about the reasons why the swamps and goblins attacked the empire, but he never dared to tell them.

The reason is that the swamps, goblins and elves established a friendly alliance and discovered the human enslavement and massacre of the three races, so they launched a counterattack.

The real reason is unknown, but one thing is certain that the stated reason for their attack on the capital this time was to save the princess.

"Is it related to her? It's just some kind of princess. I'll go directly to the Rhodes Elf Forest to get it, and their Elf King will happily hand it over to me. I don't believe they dare to join forces at this time. There must be someone behind the scenes!"

The man frowned: "As you know, I am stationed here on behalf of Xing'er. I don't want you Maggie people to be exterminated."

"Yes!" The king's forehead hit the ground.

The man stood up: "I'm going to the Rhodes Elf Forest. I believe those night elves will give me the answer I want. Where is the golden dragon?"

"He is always on guard outside, my lord."

"I haven't ridden that thing yet." The man was eager to try it, with excitement flashing in his eyes: "What a giant dragon!"

Even though Jinlong was reluctant, he still put on a flattering expression and did not dare to mention any parts of himself that he could not touch. Instead, he obediently allowed an ordinary legendary man who could kill a bunch of people with one breath of dragon breath to sit on his back. .

"Hahaha!" The man opened his arms and felt the wind hitting his body.

A journey of thousands of miles can be reached in an instant.

When crossing the swamp and flying to the Elf Forest, the golden dragon suddenly trembled.

He hurriedly flapped his wings to stop his forward flight and forced himself to stop in the air.

The man on the back realized in hindsight: "Who?!"

Unsharp eyes captured the space that was torn apart by a powerful force on the path that the golden dragon had to pass just now.

If Jinlong hadn't reacted in time, he might have lost his head in the fight with the dragon.

"Not from Maggie?" A voice appeared in the man's ear.

Not only him, but also the giant dragon didn't react. The other party seemed to have used very clever space magic to teleport.

Teleportation is not difficult, and spellcasters and dragons who concentrate on magic can easily master it.

But it's hard to be silent.

Li Qi was also confused. He was just farming and researching new varieties. Unexpectedly, a giant dragon suddenly flew over his head without obeying the rules.

Not to mention the giant dragons in this world, even the giant dragons in the Lulea plane dare not easily cross the territory of other lords. Dragon scales are not really indestructible.

It's so ostentatious that it completely treats this place as a back garden.

"I am the messenger of the Xing'er tribe, the observer of order in the Jura plane! Don't you know me?"

His bossy look made Li Qi subconsciously bring up a few old acquaintances in his mind, such as the eldest prince Hugo Cyne and the later king George Cline Jr. I also remember their ending, they all died.

Li Qi raised his hand and slapped the so-called Xing'er clan envoy on the head, injecting spiritual power into him.

Even if a legendary strongman has not learned magic, his spiritual power will be very powerful, but his spiritual power is like a stone thrown into a pond in front of the terrifying spiritual power of dozens of dragons contracted by Li Qi.

Devoured instantly.

The man fell on the golden dragon's back.

"Who are they from the Xing'er tribe?" Li Qi's attention was focused on Jin Long who was trying to balance his body, fearing that his body would tilt and cause him displeasure.

"Yes!" Jin Long immediately replied: "The Xing'er tribe is a very powerful race. The human empire accidentally contacted the Xing'er tribe during the sacrifice ceremony hundreds of years ago, and that race sent observers to help mankind develop. Every 50 years, there is a new observer."

"A powerful race that can cross the material plane and doesn't even bother to exploit the resources of this plane?"

Li Qi asked a few more questions and found that Jin Long's answers were hesitant, either because he didn't dare to say or because he didn't know.

Fortunately, Li Qi's questions never needed to be answered.

Corpses can talk.

Li Qi pointed to the road for the golden dragon to land, and asked at the same time: "What is he doing here?"

The golden dragon naturally knew everything and answered everything: "He suspected that when the human empire was attacked, the elves were dissatisfied with the elf princess being taken away, so he wanted to go to the elf forest to ask in person."

"Where is the elf princess?"

Li Qizhen didn't expect that the other party was quite good at playing and knew how to imprison the elf princess.

I have never touched an elf, mainly due to my resistance to the modeled face.

He didn't worry too much about the elf princess. Even if the elf princess didn't turn into a liquid collector who lost her mind and could only roll her eyes, she probably wouldn't be much better.

It's enough to be a good person in your own plane. Maggi and Lureyan people are of different races. The night elves are only friendly to him, and the timid Elf King is also very disliked.

"That Xing'er tribe seems to be very powerful."

He could make a golden dragon that could kill him in an instant act like a transportation tool without daring to move.

According to Li Qi's understanding, the Dragon Clan is very arrogant and sometimes would rather die than let others step on their back.

Just the name of a race scares most people, and they still have the guts to come to the Rhodes Elf Forest alone.

It is enough to see how strong the Xing'er clan's influence is on this material plane.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a god.
