Chapter 990 - 990 Blazing Fire Crow
990 Blazing Fire Crow
“King, is there a limit to how many times one can soak in this Sunset Hot Spring? If all the soldiers in the army could soak in it once, the combat strength of the entire army would undergo a qualitative change.”
Qi Jiguang asked.
“The Sunset Hot Spring doesn’t have any other restrictions, but it can only accommodate ten people at a time. One hundred people can only soak in it in a day. This is the limit. The power contained in the hot spring isn’t infinite either.”
Li Xiang also hoped that he could soak them all, but it would take a long time.
“In that case, I suggest that the Sunset Hot Spring can be used as a reward. It can be exchanged with merit points. If one performs well in battle and kills the most enemies, one can be rewarded with the opportunity to bathe in the hot spring. This way, it could also increase the competitiveness of the army.”
Zhou Qing suggested as he looked at the Sunset Hot Spring in front of him.
There were two ways to use the Sunset Hot Spring. The first option was to use the mythical merit points on the battlefield to exchange. The second option was to reward those who performed outstandingly with free soaking opportunities. This would give many soldiers great motivation.
“Sure!”
Li Xiang agreed.
If this treasure land was not given to his own people to use, who else was to use it?
“King, there’s more ahead.”
Ye Qiu pointed to a region in front of him.
The group walked over and discovered that it was also an ancient tree.
“Impossible!”
“There’s actually birds growing on this tree? I felt that my understanding had been subverted. Since when did birds grow out of trees? It was too strange! The Mythical Battlefield is too strange!”
As soon as they got close, Ye Qiu and Lu Zhishen couldn’t help but make a fuss. Their eyes widened like light bulbs.
It was a fiery red tree with wing-like leaves that emitted scorching flames.
More importantly, the “fruit” on the tree was a flock of birds.
It was really a bird, not a bird-shaped fruit, but a living one that grew from a tree.
There was a root between the head and the branch, and nutrients entered the birds’ bodies through the root.
At this moment, these birds all had their eyes closed, and their feathers were scarlet. It emitted a scorching aura. Every single one of them had a dense life aura in their bodies. They were indeed living creatures.
Birds could really grow on trees.
“There are all kinds of strange things in the large worlds. Even weapons can grow, so it’s not surprising that a flock of birds can grow.” Zhou Qing said with a smile.
There were too many things in this world that subverted everyone’s understanding. After experiencing it too much, they were no longer surprised.
Li Xiang couldn’t help but feel happy. This was a treasure tree, an extremely precious treasure tree.
The Fire Crow that grew on this tree would have much higher innate aptitude than the Fire Crows that were born normally. Moreover, the most amazing thing was that before the Fire Crow was plucked from the tree, it could recognize its master perfectly by dripping blood on it. It was definitely the most loyal battle pet.
There were no less than ten thousand Fire Crows growing on the huge Blazing Fire Crow Tree in front of him. Each of them had an extremely powerful aura, and they were not inferior to mythical-level fierce beasts.
“With so many of them, we might be able to form a Fire Crow Cavalry. On the Mythical Battlefield, a troop of cavalrymen with the ability to fly would be a great help.” Zhou Qing said after some thought.
It did not mean that once one reached the mythical realm, one could fly in the air without needing a mount anymore. Air Cavalry was a combination of mounts and human soldiers. If they worked well together, their battle prowess would definitely multiply.
“The commander of the Air Cavalry is Qin Ge. However, because there are only 60 – 70 Golden-scaled Birds that have just left their infancy and can join the battle, there are only 60-odd air cavalry soldiers. To build a new air cavalry army, they had to draw from the five army groups.
Li Xiang had never thought that he would encounter such a tree on the Mythical Battlefield, which had tens of thousands of Blazing Fire Crows. These Fire Crows were mature, and once they recognized their master, they could form an air cavalry army in the shortest time possible. This matter had happened too suddenly, catching him off guard.
“King, why don’t we just transfer them from our five army groups? An air cavalry army can help a lot. Only a portion of the soldiers will be transferred, and it won’t affect the overall strength of the army too much.” Zhao Yun suggested.
“That’s right. I suggest that we transfer archers and crossbowmen as the main targets. These kinds of long-range soldiers have a stronger deterrent effect on the enemy in the air.” Qi Jiguang muttered.
Once an archer occupied the high ground, they were the most terrifying killing machines. Especially in the sky, if one was a Sharpshooter, one would be the most terrifying god of death on the battlefield.
“Alright, Qin Ge, later you will personally go to the five army groups to select archers. You must build a powerful air cavalry army for me. After the people are selected, they will be under your command. As for the official titles, they would be conferred after we leave the Mythical Battlefield and return to the Kingdom of Dawn.”
Li Xiang made a decision.
Although this was an accident, it was a pleasant surprise to have gained a powerful air cavalry army.
He hoped that there would be more accidents like this.
“Yes, King! After the selection, I will bring them to choose their Fire Crow mounts. They would definitely be trained into an army in the shortest time possible and participate in battles.” Excitement appeared on Qin Ge’s face.
This was an air cavalry army. There were more than 10,000 of them. Compared to the dozens of people before, it was a completely different concept. At that time, the air cavalry army would definitely shock the Myriad races in the world, and they shall experience the power of the human air cavalry army.
“Good!”
Li Xiang looked at Zhou Qing and the others and said, “If you want, you can choose a Fire Crow as your mount now. This batch of Fire Crow was the essence of the Blazing Fire Crow Tree that had been accumulated for countless years. They were of the best quality and had the greatest potential. The quality and potential of the Fire Crow that would be born again in the future would definitely be slightly inferior to the current ones.”
This was an opportunity that could only be obtained when the Mythical Battlefield opened for the first time. Pioneers would always get more opportunities than those who came later.
“No need, I can’t stand the cries of the Fire Crow.” Zhou Qing said politely.
Fire Crows were also a type of crow, and they could not escape from the nature of crows. When the crow cried, his mind would be in a mess. Zhou Qing still preferred peace. This way, he could keep his mind clear.
The crow’s cry could indeed make people feel irritated from the bottom of their hearts.
“I don’t need it either.”
Fu Mingxue shook his head. “Leave it to the air cavalries! An additional crow meant that the overall battle strength of air cavalries would be enhanced a little more.”
“Hehe, I just happen to want a battle pet mount. Fire Crow with such powerful bloodlines is rare. Perhaps they can revert and transform into Three-legged Golden Crows. This was one of the legendary divine birds. It could transform into a great sun and burn the sky and boil the sea.” Ye Qiu was very interested.
