Dota: Becoming a God Starting with Dragon Knight

Li Ming carefully examined the treasure map and found that the map on it was indeed this secret realm.

Unfortunately, the so-called treasure was nothing more than bait for the giant slime.

Li Ming glanced at it a few times and then returned the treasure map to the elves.

"Don't go into Black Lake anymore."

"There isn't enough space there, it's not a good place to fight, and it's easy to capsize."

"If I don't get there in time, you'll all drown."

"And nobody knows exactly how many of those giant slimes are in this lake."

Under his strict discipline, the elves walked away dejectedly with their heads down.

Li Ming watched them approach the entrance on the minimap and reunite with the other sprites before he felt relieved and continued his patrol.

After that, the little elf did not have any more accidents.

Occasionally, a team of sprites would provoke multiple slimes, but they would be dealt with by the help of other sprites.

Ten hours have passed.

It was already dark in the secret realm. The little elves had returned to the entrance to rest. Li Ming leaned against a rotten log, his eyes fixed on the mini-map.

"I'm so bored—"

"If I'd known it would be this boring, I should have found a secret realm to go into myself!"

Of course, this is just talk.

There are no wild, secret realms for him to enter near the royal court.

He thought of the giant slime in the Black Lake and the black gem on its body, and then thought of the treasure inside the ordinary slime, and suddenly became interested.

That gem might be a treasure hidden inside the giant slime?

"How about we go find some fun?"

It seems that the giant slime is the boss of this secret realm. How can you only fight the mobs and not the boss when you're doing a dungeon?

Without hesitation, Li Ming transformed into a giant dragon and soared into the sky.

When he flew over the Black Lake, he discovered that there were quite a few giant slimes in the lake.

They are scattered throughout Black Lake, and there are at least ten of them.

He swiftly approached a giant slime, and with a single claw strike, a shield appeared, completely blocking his attack; the slime did not react at all.

"The attack power is too low?"

"Try again!"

He then approached the giant slime and unleashed a series of punches at it.

This time, the shield was burned through, and the attacked slime reacted.

Several clumps of black slime were sprayed onto Li Ming by the slime.

[Sanctified Protective Suit] is activated instantly, creating a 360-point shield that blocks the giant slime's attack.

"We can withstand this damage, but its health seems a bit high!"

Li Ming looked at the giant black slimes in the lake and hesitated whether to give up.

After transforming into a dragon, he gained the ability to fly and the ability to attack from a distance (normal breath).

However, the equipment he originally carried with him could only be placed in his mouth or on the ground.

If you put it in your mouth, you can only use your claws for melee combat; if you put it on the ground, the bonus is greatly reduced.

"Let's try ranged attacks again; if that doesn't work, we'll have to give up!"

He placed the [Shadow Blade], [Hand of Midas], and two [Shadow Amulets] from his mouth on the shore, then flew over a giant slime again.

"Ptooey~ ptooey ptooey!"

He spat a series of ice balls at the giant slime, blasting it into a pile of ice shards.

Upon discovering it was being attacked again, the slime didn't hold back, spraying clumps of black slime all over Li Ming.

The level 3 ultimate skill [Ancient Dragon Form] provides Li Ming with flight ability, increased movement speed, increased attack range, increased casting range, low corrosive damage, 75% splash damage over 375 meters, and a frost effect that reduces attack speed and movement speed.

The only drawback is the lack of attack power bonus.

This resulted in Li Ming's attack power decreasing instead of increasing. Fortunately, after transforming into a dragon, the effect of his innate skill [Dragon Bloodline] became stronger, giving him higher defense and healing capabilities.

When Li Ming returned to the shore after his transformation ended, the slime he had attacked was badly injured but otherwise unharmed.

Even after Li Ming's attacks ceased, the wounds on its body were healing at a visible speed.

"Damn, this thing regenerates health way too fast."

He suddenly didn't want to fight anymore.

The problem now is that although this giant slime's attack power is not high, its health regeneration speed is extremely fast, making it very difficult to kill.

Of course, he himself is like that: lacking in attack power, but possessing high defense and fast health regeneration.

The two tanks are now invincible.

Although he had a slight advantage in terrain because he could fly, allowing him to fight or run at will, it wasn't very useful.

"If we can lure this thing to the shore, maybe we can fight it."

"Let me think..."

Li Ming put all the equipment he had left on the shore back into his body and stared at the Black Lake, deep in thought.

"By the way, why do these giant slimes put their gems on their heads? Don't ordinary slimes keep their treasures inside their bodies?"

"This kind of behavior is generally used as bait. Is it an attempt to lure adventurers?"

"No, this secret realm is unique to Qingqing Elementary School. It is only open to the lower grade students of the school each year for practical training. Not many Pokémon come in."

"So it's trying to lure something else."

"This secret realm only has one type of creature: slimes. Could it be trying to lure the slimes?"

"That's it, that must be it!"

"Regular slimes feed on the humus layer outside the Black Lake, while these giant slimes survive by eating regular slimes."

"No wonder there were no slimes on the shore; these guys ate them!"

"Give it a try!"

Li Ming found some vines that hadn't yet rotted in the secret realm, braided them into a rope, then randomly grabbed a slime and brought it to the Black Lake.

"Get out of here!"

He threw the slime onto the black lake, and the once quiet slime suddenly became restless, struggling to climb toward the black gem on the head of the giant slime.

As it approached the black gem, the giant slime swallowed it whole.

Hearing the satisfied "gurgling" sound coming from the giant slime below, Li Ming chuckled.

"Since it really does eat slime, that makes things easier."

"Today I'll use slime to fish for slime."

After a while, Li Ming made a simple fishing rod, tied an ordinary slime to it, and threw it into the water in front of a giant slime.

Lured by the black gem on the giant slime's head, the slime desperately tried to swim towards the giant slime, but was forcibly pulled back by Li Ming and could not move an inch.

Its movements, however, startled the giant slime in the water.

The giant slime stared longingly at the slime in front of it, quietly waiting for it to take the bait.

Waiting and waiting...

What's going on? Why is it still thrashing around in front of me?

Smell it, and it is indeed a jelly slime.

Forget it, if it won't come to me, I'll go to it!

Huh? Why is this jelly moving?

I'll leave then!

Every time the giant slime took a step forward, Li Ming would pull it a little closer to the shore.

As they went back and forth, the giant slime unknowingly approached the shore.

Finally, Li Ming threw the slime on the shore, letting it climb onto the giant slime's head and be swallowed whole.
