Throne of the Warlord

Chapter 28 The Final Challenge

It's also fortunate that there are no long-range units, otherwise the chain mail on these second-tier senior infantrymen would not be able to block the sharp bone arrows.

The chain mail is fastened with iron rings, which can block hacking, and arrows will pass directly through the middle of the iron rings.

Although there is a layer of leather armor under the chain mail, the inner leather armor is not the outer leather armor, so it can't hold a few arrows, but any arrow with a little strength can easily shoot through it.

Back in God's Domain, Li Qing immediately asked the diggers to boil water and cook at the construction site, helped his men remove the heavy armor for repairs, and fed the horses.

Li Qing took a sip of water to rest, and opened the property panel of his subordinates.

After a big battle, although the skeletons are all units below the first rank, there are too many of them, and the accumulation of experience is still considerable.

However, after the average score, none of the arms has accumulated enough combat experience to be promoted, but Long Shou has killed countless people with Wushuang all the way, and his level has been raised several levels. Now the level is as high as level 18 and 94% of the experience, and he will soon be able to rise to 19 class.

If there is another big battle like this, if his level can be raised to level 20 and promoted to a second-tier hero, his strength will be greatly improved.

Upgrading the level itself will greatly improve his physical fitness. The dragon bloodline will be strengthened with the level up, and it will be developed once every level up. Coupled with the strengthening of hero skills and hero specialties, the hero's star rating will increase. The higher it is, the stronger the strength will be enhanced with each step up.

But unfortunately, the difficulty of the next wave is estimated to be so high that it will explode.

Li Qing might not even dare to continue to the next round, but he hasn't seen any unwillingness yet.

The third round will start later, let's take a look at the difficulty, if it is too outrageous, he will give up decisively.

After several battles, Li Qing's combat level has not improved. After all, he has done nothing, but commanded a few battles, and his strategic experience has greatly improved, but he has not yet reached the point of upgrading to the second-tier strategic level.

While his subordinates were resting and repairing their equipment, Li Qing returned to the maze from God's Domain.

Looking at the broken bones all over the floor, Li Qing scratched his head, opened the space in his palm, and sucked the large pieces of broken bones nearby into the space.

then
"It's useless!"

The bones are decomposed, stripped of the death breath contained in them, and then synthesized, only a large bone with extremely high density can be synthesized. What is the use of this?

"I don't follow the route of the necromancer, what's the matter... wait!"

Li Qing suddenly pinched his chin and thought for a while.

Although he does not follow the necromancer route, it is possible that others will. This bone is useless to him, but it is quite useful to some necromancers.

If all these brittle bones are broken down, and then reassembled into dense, strong and heavy bones, and then used to make strong skeleton frames, what level will the skeletons reawakened by undead spells be?
Thinking of this, Li Qing immediately became interested, and began to absorb the broken bones scattered around with the space in his palm.

Fortunately, the space in the palm has a strong attraction, and the broken bones are not heavy, so they can be sucked up.

Most of the broken bones are concentrated near the high platform, and it is only necessary to take away most of the broken bones in the vicinity.

But when he was busy here, the voice of the mentor suddenly came from his ear:
"Your space-type relic is quite miraculous, can it hold living things?"

Li Qing paused, and immediately raised his head and replied respectfully:
"Cannot contain living things."

"Well, that's a pity."

"You haven't seen this hero before, did your parents prepare it for you?"

Li Qing nodded and said:
"Yes, my parents prepared them for me."

"It's very powerful. Even if there is only one four-star hero under the name of a mentor, you have to cultivate it well and don't let your parents' expectations down."

Li Qing nodded seriously:

"I will."

Nie Yang nodded and asked again:

"Do you have any ideas for the next level?"

Li Qing told the truth:

"It's probably going to be difficult. I want to take a look now. If I can, of course I want to try, but if the difficulty is too high, I have to give up."

"Fifth Pass"

Nie Yang said in a deep voice:

"Later, the fifth level is also an army of skeletons. The level of the skeletons that appear is the same as the previous level, but they are all below the first level, but there are four thousand in number, and about [-]% of them are skeleton archers, and there will be an undead knight. Commander of heroes, do you have confidence?"

"hiss!"

Li Qing couldn't help but gasped.

"This is too difficult!"

Not to mention the quantity, the key is [-]% or [-] skeleton archers, how to fight?
The bone bows used by skeleton archers also shoot bone arrows. The bone arrows are very brittle, and they will break immediately when they hit hard objects. , A round of [-] bone arrows shot over and drowned them directly.

They will definitely not be able to shoot duels, the number is too small, even if all the archers are promoted to Tier [-] sharpshooters, they will still be unable to shoot.

He looked up and looked around. There were three high platforms in this small canyon basin, but none of them were very high, and there was no place to hide from the rain of arrows. It was absolutely impossible to block the siege and consumption of the [-] skeleton army.

Shaking his head in his heart, he said:

"Teacher, this is too difficult, I'm afraid I can't stop it."

Nie Yang said with a smile:

"It is indeed difficult, but with the capital you have now, it is not impossible to build a suitable defensive stronghold. Your hero is very powerful. You may try it."

"The capital I have now???"

At this time, the teacher's voice sounded in his ears again:

"If you can complete the fifth level, you can get a God's Domain building core from me. This is a very rare opportunity. It is only available in the first big class. The next opportunity will be in half a year."

"That is to say, you only have two opportunities to directly receive the rewards of God's Domain buildings this year. I hope you can seize this opportunity, even if you pay a huge price."

"Soldiers can be retrained, but the opportunity is very rare."

"but."

"It's not something I can succeed just by trying, it's too difficult."

"You can use the means available to you."

"All available means?"

Li Qing thought carefully, and there was a hint of inspiration in his heart, but he couldn't grasp it for a while.

Suddenly, he thought of something in a flash of inspiration, and immediately asked:

"Mentor, can I use the props stored in this space relic in the test?"

But waited for a while and no response.

Li Qing rubbed his forehead and grinned, knowing what he should do.

Returning to the gate of God's Domain, Li Qing came to the easternmost part of God's Domain, glanced at the hard-built city wall, shook his head, opened the space in his palm and put them away one by one.

It took so much effort to build a city wall, but it turned out that it was wrong, so I was speechless.

But there is no way, no one taught it before, so how could there be any hidden dangers.

But then again, there is no major problem in the early stage, as the instructor said, those enemies who do not take the usual path are unlikely to be encountered in the early stage, so there is no major problem in the early stage.

At least in the first two years under the mentor's name, it is impossible to encounter such unconventional enemies. After two years, there are more resources, which can be slowly changed or adjusted on the existing basis.

All in all, it's not a waste of effort.

In addition to putting away all the city walls, Li Qing took another piece of stone and transformed it into stone balls with thorns for storage.

Then some wooden cubes were taken and began to be processed into various special defensive weapons.

After doing this, he reappeared in the challenge space.

Instead of continuing to collect bone fragments, he walked deeper into the Challenge Canyon along the canyon.

Now this position is not suitable, he is going to find a suitable place to build a defense line.

Anyway, there is still more than an hour, you can slowly search.

Go down the canyon, turn left and turn right.

At the same time, other apprentices also completed the challenge one after another.

Most of them failed, and only a few of the top ranked successfully completed the challenge of the fourth level, but only two were able to complete the challenge without loss, namely Li Qing and Zhang Jishan.

Although Cao Wenyuan and Gongsun Jin, Mo Wenxi and Chu Zaizhong completed the fourth pass, they each had losses.

For example, Cao Wenyuan only lost one soldier, but it was also an injury.

The one who suffered the most was Gongsun Jin, who finally completed the challenge at the cost of the death of [-] infantrymen.

After completing the challenge and opening God's Domain to let the troops go back to rest, Gongsun Jin raised his head and shouted:
"Mentor, I wonder how Li Qing's challenge is completed?"

The light curtain only shows how many apprentices have completed, and will not show the loss.

After a while, Nie Yang's voice sounded in his ears:

"I know what you want to ask. He has completed the fourth challenge without any loss. You have lost the bet between you."

"In addition, he is already preparing to start the fifth challenge. I can allow you to return to your God's Domain to replenish soldiers, up to a maximum population of 50. However, the fifth challenge is very difficult, and you have no chance. The instructor recommends that you give up the first challenge." Five challenges."

"Damn, how could he be so strong."

Gongsun Jin bit her lower lip, feeling a little unwilling.

"I don't know if the instructor can tell you the specific difficulty of the fifth challenge, so that I can completely give up."

Nie Yang pondered for a moment. Although Gongsun Jin's spiritual talent was not as good as Li Qing's, it was still a four-star talent. In previous years, he was regarded as the best under his name, and it was worth cultivating.

"The challenge of the fifth level is the undead skeletons below [-] ranks. There are [-] skeleton archers and a rank [-] undead knight hero."

Gongsun Jin.
Standing there for a while, his expression changed back and forth, but finally he sighed weakly.

After completing the challenge of the fourth level, he already knew how terrifying the sea of ​​skeletons was.

In the last level, there were about [-] skeletons, and it was so difficult to fight. The next [-] skeleton archers, including [-], and an undead hero led it, which completely exceeded the limit of my coping ability.

Instructor Nie Yang observes back and forth in the challenge space, answering the apprentices' questions from time to time, and instructing them on how to use their own advantages.

He doesn't mind the apprentices opening some tricks during the assessment, as long as they are owned by the apprentices, they can use them.

His task is to train apprentices and let them grow.

Props such as relics belong to the capital that apprentices themselves have, and it is only right and proper to use these capitals to obtain more benefits.

If possible, he would prefer that everyone can complete the challenge of the fifth level and get a lot of rewards.

After all, Zhanzheng College will reimburse a large part of all the efforts in the future.

If these apprentices can become talents in the future, all the efforts will be returned several times.

If the apprentice cannot become a talent, there will be no return for the effort.

But this kind of thing itself is an uncertain thing. No one can guarantee that his apprentice will become a talent, and he can only do his best with all his heart.

Under his guidance, the two apprentices, Gongsun Jin and Chu Zaizhong, felt that their strength was not enough, so they withdrew from the challenge of the fifth level.

The remaining Zhang Jishan, Cao Wenyuan, and Mo Wenxi continued to challenge the fifth round, and they were all making final preparations for the fifth round of challenges.

At this time, Li Qing had already turned left and right in the canyon of Challenge Space for about two kilometers. After denying two places that felt good, he found another corner of the canyon.

In fact, there are corners everywhere in the canyon, but this corner found this time is different from other corners.

First of all, the width of this corner is quite wide, about [-] or [-] meters, which is just enough to put down two sections of the city wall, and there is not much space left after placing an arrow tower.

In addition, both sides of the corner canyon are very steep, and it is impossible for the skeleton to go up from the left and right to the canyon and attack the archers on the city wall.

The two sections of the city wall are placed at the corner, so that the skeleton army facing the city wall is only one pile at the corner, and the skeleton army behind cannot attack the defenders on the other side of the [-]-degree corner. The strength advantage of the skeleton army.

Li Qing simulated in his mind the battle form after establishing a defense here, and his eyes lit up immediately.

"Absolutely!"

Make an immediate decision and build your defense right here.

First, he walked to the corner, and then opened the space in his palm. The vortex quickly expanded to more than five meters, and a five-meter-long city wall was smashed down, just touching the leftmost side of the canyon.

Immediately afterwards, the same method was followed, and the second section of the city wall was lowered to align with the first section of the city wall.

Although the ground is not very flat, and the two sections of the city wall are crooked and cannot be completely aligned, it is not a big problem, it is just a temporary city wall, and it must be put away after this battle.

Then put the last arrow tower on the far right, and the gap is basically filled.

Then open the gate of God's Domain, bring out the rested troops, put the archers on the arrow tower, and put the infantry on the city wall.

But this is not enough.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Qing found two suitable flat grounds about 60 meters and 100 meters behind this section of the city wall, and put down the second and third sections of the city wall.

In this way, if the front section of the city wall is breached, you can immediately withdraw to the second section of the city wall to continue defending.

The city wall is not afraid of being broken. Such a hard stone cannot be crushed by a skeleton of less than the first level. He is mainly afraid of the tactics of undead heroes.

Although there were many skeletons in the previous round, there was no hero to command them, and the skeletons all rushed forward without any tactics at all.

Now there is an undead hero commanding this round, and he will definitely use various tactics.

And Skeleton Sea has a unique siege tactic that is very terrifying, that is, a large number of skeletons are piled up under the city wall until the bones are piled up to the same level as the city wall.

At that time, the undead army can directly rush to the top of the city on the bones.

So it is still necessary to get two more rounds of city wall buffer, just in case.

After finishing these, Li Qing took a deep breath and shouted to the sky:

"Mentor, I'm ready, let's start the fifth round of challenges!"
