A duke in the south said with a smile: "Your army is very powerful, you sent 40,000 to level the Black Rose Castle, and then fled back to 1,000, you are 300,000 troops, from beginning to end, Richard used a total of more than 50,000 troops." ”

"That's enough. The Emperor slammed the table and roared.

Only then did the cabinet members stop a new round of quarrels.

"If any of you want to doubt Richard's strength, then go to him yourself, whether it's war or heads-up, you can go, you go,. ”

The angry emperor's saliva was about to spray on the faces of the northern dukes, and the dukes were all stunned, they didn't expect the emperor to be so angry all of a sudden.

With a snap, the emperor threw a new copy of Wen Jiàn on the table, and said with a gloomy face, "You all take a look." ”

The duke and the ministers circulated it one by one, and then everyone turned gloomy.

Only then did the emperor say sarcastically: "You think people will be afraid of war, but now you know." ”

This text is an ultimatum sent by the Holy Alliance.

The letter said that a week had passed, and if the Holy Tree Dynasty could not make a final decision within three days, Richard would start a war and 'take' the territory he deserved, and the letter also added a clause that since Richard was fighting in the territory that he deserved, he would no longer protect the safety of the lords and the right to pay the ransom.

It was a blatant threat, and it was a threat of the extinction of the lords.

There was silence in the conference hall for a moment, and only after a moment did the Minister of War say, "If the Glorious Church does not fight, we may not be able to win." ”

"With the power of the dynasty, you can't win against a small lord,. The duke from the north roared again, this time his territory was going to be divided by more than half of Richard, so the opposition was particularly vigorous.

But halfway through his words, he was suddenly choked back into his throat, and he looked down in disbelief at the short sword stuck in his heart, which was incomparably gorgeous in style, and was holding it in the emperor's hand.

The emperor's face was a little hideous, and the short sword suddenly twisted with force, completely crushing the duke's heart.

"I'm sorry, from now on, you are no longer the lord of the Holy Tree Dynasty, and the power of the dynasty has nothing to do with you. ”

Hearing the emperor's words, the duke's eyes bulged out, and he wanted to say something, but all that came out of his mouth was blood.

"Guys, is there anyone else objecting? The Emperor asked the Northern Dukes very calmly.

Richard's operation to harvest the territory, except for a few days of delay with the Holy Tree Dynasty, was as smooth as expected.

This is the action of the super strong to demarcate their own sphere of influence, and it is also Norland's practice, but most of the super strong in the past enclosed land in their own countries, and Richard's line not only included the three major empires, but also cut a long coastline from the polar continent by the way.

As Richard had judged, the lords had no choice but to accept his approach, and the war between the Black Rose Castle and the Sacred Tree was the final turning point, and since then, no one has been willing to provoke war against Akmund.

Although Richard does not have a thousand cavalry now, all kinds of powerful troops from the brood are emerging in an endless stream, and the strong men under his command have experienced a brutal battle with the reaper, and their strength has soared, in contrast, perhaps the most common is just Richard, Richard has only been promoted by one level.

A level 25 mage doesn't look very powerful on the surface.

Of course, only on the surface.

After defeating the indefinite queen, Richard has faintly become the first team of super strong, and only some stubborn old guys will question Richard's super strong identity and strength by rank and past standards.

Richard still looked like he had nothing to do, spending most of his time in Norland in a daze, occasionally walking around his private plane and destroying a few blind monsters.

During this time, he only completed a fifth-order structure, or a very peculiar water control structure, this structure is mainly used by non-sea races when exploring underwater, and when it is activated, it can give the user a powerful ability to control the water element, so that even if you fight sea beasts in the deep sea, you will not suffer too much.

Such a composition, no matter how strange the function is, is also a holy construction, but Richard casually threw it into the points exchange huàn system, unexpectedly it stirred up a lot of waves, because of its unique function and low requirements for carrying capacity, but let the strong have interest, in many planes, underwater is a prohibitive place, but the ocean is a resource-rich world no matter where it is.

The nobles of Faust are still looking forward to a grand construction conference, because there are too many holy structures that Richard has thrown into the points system one after another, and the types have reached dozens, if there is a centralized press conference, its grand occasion will be unprecedented, but now Richard is not interested in these at all, he just wanders around or is in a daze at his own pace.

The only transfer worth discussing was that Akmund sent a Legend and a dozen Sanctuaries to the Peerless Battlefield, but this force did not go to the newly defeated Legion Fortress, but stayed in the Immortal Capital.

Although the strong men of Akmund did not fight, the marshal of the capital of the city still welcomed their arrival very much, after all, every legendary strong man is a considerable strength, and the legend of Akmund is famous for his high strength and luxurious equipment.

And just like that, time passed quietly.

Three months later, the fleet on the ice floe bay was finally completely transformed, so Richard set off for Deep Blue, and after reviewing the fleet, he prepared to go to the Azure Continent.

The envoy of the thousand-year-old empire came as promised, and it was the goshawk who led the team, but to Richard's surprise, the deputy leader was actually Mina, in Richard's eyes, such a weak and unwinded small holy area, running to the Cangqing Continent, it was purely uncomfortable to go, Richard didn't think that this trip would be so peaceful.

Richard was determined to obtain the road map to the Abyss of Abyss, but the High Elves were notoriously arrogant and arrogant, and they were driven out of Norland by humans, so they naturally hated humans very much, and when Richard arrived on the Azure Continent, it was estimated that it would be a good result not to start fighting immediately.

The goshawk was naturally a very useful companion, and even Richard admitted that a senior scholar-mage could be of great use if used in the right place.

It is also because of this that Richard left Raymond at the beginning, so there will be a series of changes in the future, but fate cannot be guessed after all, if it were not for the soul supplement provided by Raymond, the brood would not have been able to resist the call of the reaper, and it would have become a sharp weapon against Richard.

Preparations for the long-range fleet were gradually ready, and just as Richard was preparing to depart, an unexpected news came.

Hattings' army was defeated under the Black Vortex Fortress, almost all the warriors were killed, and he himself was seriously wounded, although he was rescued and saved his life, but the damage he suffered was permanent, and I am afraid that it is impossible to return to the legendary level.

In this battle, when the battle began, tens of thousands of manta rays suddenly poured out of the Black Vortex Fortress, although they only had the strength of level sixteen, but their number was several times that of the Hattings army, and Hattings was not very good at command, and he could not issue orders through the guò soul link like Richard, so the command efficiency was also greatly reduced.

In the end, although the Manta Ray troops were completely annihilated and a large number of Daxodas were killed and wounded, they still could not escape the fate of the entire army.

Upon hearing the news, Richard sighed imperceptibly.

The combat power of the army of Hattings is indeed extremely strong, and it has fought all the way to the end, if you do not consider the means to obtain the source of power of the army, only in terms of actual combat results, it can be said that it has made a major contribution to Norland.

Although the Daxondas won, the regional combat strength has been greatly damaged, almost half of the elite troops have been lost, and four legion fortresses have also been lost, at least for the next few decades, the Daxondas will be at a disadvantage in this desperate battlefield.

Since Hattings had finally chosen to fight the Daxoldas to the end rather than use his soul-infused army in the Norland Civil War, Richard decided to leave him alone and wait for a while.

The time for departure was soon up, and with a long magic whistle, seven converted giant warships sailed out of the harbor one by one, heading for the distant Azure Continent.

The seven ships have now been heavily refitted, almost completely different from their original appearance, and the hulls are filled with buildings that are very different from the Norland style, and they are dense but have a strange sense of harmony, and those who participated in the Faro War will see that these buildings are built in a way that is very similar to the style of the Reaper.

The appearance of the seven giant ships has a faint halo from time to time, and the color of each of them corresponds to the color of the seven moons, and Richard stands on the pale blue giant ship, this battleship with the blue moon power as an additional energy source was set by Richard as the flagship, to commemorate the sword that Illani stabbed at Gordon.

Standing on the extremely wide bridge, the ice bay and the deep blue were far behind Richard, and in front of him was the endless sea.

Even after seeing the magnificence of the void, the endless sea in front of you still makes people feel small.

Richard stood against the sea breeze, playing with the last Destiny Crystal in his hand, this crystal plate has never left his body, and in recent years, as Richard's strength has steadily improved, the opportunity to use it has become correspondingly less and less, and many times Richard can't remember to use it at all, even during the war with Wuding.

But as long as this fate crystal plate is still on his body, Richard will feel inexplicably relieved, after all, even at the last moment, he always has a way out, hope and no hope are completely different states of mind, even if there is a slim hope, it is hope.

In the war with the Reaper, this fate crystal plate has blocked the reaper's high-energy beam more than once, and even bounced a metal kinetic energy bomb back once, so now Richard treats it more as a lucky charm, and when his fingertips touch the lucky crystal plate, Richard will feel that his heart is extraordinarily calm.

It's the feeling that fate is in his own hands, and Richard now understands what he wants to do and what he wants.

After the Azure Continent, he will pass through the world passage of the Abyss Abyss and go to the dark side of the world to see.
