The news spread, and the lords and powerful people of the entire continent reacted differently.

There were those who were worried, those who immediately contacted Akmund to offer support, those who gloated, and those who even felt that the time was ripe to plot something on Richard.

The strong people are concerned about another piece of news that accompanies this news. The two points battlefields in Akmund are still valid, and the points are exchanged for huàn as usual, but a large amount of military supplies is missing from the huàn. In addition, Richard will choose the opportunity to open up the third point battlefield, which is the battlefield against the Reapers.

As night fell, a team of Constructed Knights escorted fifteen top-class sacrifices to Faust. Richard then set off for the Temple of the Eternal Dragon to make sacrifices.

Richard's sacrificial ceremony was still presided over by Nolan, and he personally carried a huge magic sealing box several times larger than himself and walked up to the altar.

As countless times before, the curtain of time was raised, and the altar silently leaped into the depths of the torrent of time.

Richard placed the sacrifices on the altar and watched them turn into the power of time. Next, a large number of divine graces came, and Richard chose to strengthen the plane passage of Faro and Norland many times, until it could no longer be strengthened.

For the next charism, Richard chose a large number of equipment and rare materials. This time, Richard did not choose those materials that were equivalent to a top-level sacrifice, but checked the materials of a relatively large quantity. These materials can be used to create epic weapons, and the combat power of those below the Sanctuary is extremely obvious.

It was a war with the Reaper, and no matter how strong Richard himself was, he was limited. He must have a strong army to be able to hold the Reaper at bay and then withdraw as many of his core members as possible to Norland.

This time, the dragon of eternity and time still took great care of Richard, and the list basically met Richard's needs. At least there is no element of deliberate difficulty.

The sacrifice was quickly completed, and more than a dozen silver metal sealed boxes had been placed at Richard's feet, which were full of materials that Richard had taken out. These sealed boxes are extremely finely crafted, completely different from Norland's intricate and ornate style, full of personality, but simple and smooth industrial style, somewhat similar to the Reaper.

I don't know if Richard has too many items, but the dragon of eternity and time actually packed the materials intimately this time!

When the sacrifice was over, Richard suddenly felt a hard object in his pocket. It was the machine in the Doom Mark, and it had been crumpled into a solid metal ball by Richard at the moment.

Richard's heart moved, and he casually threw the metal ball onto the altar. To his surprise, bands of time light continued to stretch out from the void, wrapping around this metal ball, disintegrating it little by little into pure time power!

Richard was shocked when he suddenly remembered that during one of the sacrifices, the Dragon of Eternity and Time had said that they would give additional divine favors to sacrifices related to the Reaper.

The power of time in the air converged in one place, and then a few pale golden crystals fell. This time there was no room for Richard to choose, and he directly gave the Divine Crystal. It just so happens that this is also one of the supplies that Richard needs most at the moment.

At this end of the sacrifice, Richard summoned several knights in the costume and moved boxes of materials away from the altar.

On the outer sea on the northeastern border of the Faro continent, layers of ripples suddenly appeared in the sky, and a metal pillar with a diameter of ten meters and a length of nearly 100 meters, in the shape of a hexagonal prism, emerged from the ripples and glided silently in the air.

On the metal pillar, bands of light light up from time to time, which looks extremely weird. Below it is the sea, and the distant horizon is already visible.

It slowly descended, submerged in the icy water, and then continued to sink until it touched the seabed tens of meters deep before stopping.

The edges of the metal pillars splayed out, and several brackets popped out, the tips pierced deep into the seabed, held firmly, and then stood diagonally in the water, with the other end several meters above the surface.

The metal pillar suddenly trembled slightly, and hundreds of metal rods with fist thickness and more than a meter long popped out from the pillar.

These metal rods quickly changed, and in the blink of an eye, they turned into miniature hulls of different shapes, swimming in all directions in the sea. They swim extremely fast, even faster than the fastest magic swordfish in the waters off Faro.

These miniature ships are speeding underwater at speeds of over 100 kilometers per hour, slaughtering any aquatic creatures they encounter along the way. Other microships will spew out transparent nets to catch different aquatic creatures. When enough are caught, they are towed back to the mother ship.

Although these Reaper ships are small in size, they are extremely powerful, and they can still move fast with some large fish of tens of meters.

And those who are slaughtered in the water, the flesh and blood of the body will also be collected, compressed and sealed into shuttle-shaped pieces of flesh, and then transported to the mothership.

Dozens of microships just surfaced, then spread their wings and flew across the sea at a faster speed than underwater. Probe this plane in all directions.

At this moment, the tip of the mother ship, which was shaped like a metal column, suddenly cracked, shooting out hundreds of metal rods that were only half a meter long. They quickly turned into small flying machines, flying in all directions at a speed of more than 500 kilometers.

The mothership in the sea opened several rifts in its hull and began to suck in seawater before spewing it out from the other side.

It shook suddenly, and a large piece of metal split from its body, and its body was instantly reduced by a third.

The metal turned into a square-shaped ship, slowly moving forward, then climbed onto land, deformed and unfolded on the spot, and a towering structure with several spires appeared in its place.

Several small doors opened underneath it, and dozens of puppy-sized mechanical beetles rushed out and began digging in place. They dig up whatever they see, fill a box and carry it back to the building.

The surface of the building immediately lit up with countless straight lines, and the light began to flow continuously.

Soon more mechanical beetles crawled out of the building. At this time, a second square ship also emerged from the sea, deforming and spreading several kilometers away.

This time it forms a flat, polygonal building. Some of the mechanical beetles were transported from the strips made from the first workshop-style building to the second building, and the building was immediately operational. After a few moments, the top opened, and a small battleship several meters long flew out, and then flew into the sky.

In this way, more and more Reaper units are active on the cape, while the coastline is gradually shortening. There seemed to be an extra black spot in a corner of the earth, and then it quickly turned into a black spot, and it spread even faster.

In a castle near the sea, Gangde suddenly woke up from a nightmare and found himself in a cold sweat, his underwear was soaked, and he was unspeakably uncomfortable.

He got up from his bed and looked out the window, where it was very dark, as if it had just dawned. In fact, the magic clock in the corner of the wall was already pointing to ten o'clock in the morning.

From the window on the other side, you can see the sea in the distance. The sea here is dark gray, the sea is covered with lead clouds, and at the end of the field of view the sea merges with the sky.

Gangde frowned and cursed in a low voice. Look at this damn weather, it's about to snow again.

He hated snow, and in this far north, a heavy snowfall could often last for several days, and it was extremely difficult to march or fight. And Gangde is bald, he never likes to wear helmets. When the snowflakes fall on his bald head, they will turn into ice water and flow into his neck, which is indescribably uncomfortable.

Gangde put on his clothes, opened the door, and shouted, "Someone!"

Several pro-soldiers and adjutants rushed over. The soldiers began to help Gonde put on his armor, while the adjutant began to report on the latest military situation.

Gangde frowned when he heard this, and said, "Why haven't the First and Third Sword and Shield Infantry Legions set off yet?

The adjutant said cautiously: "My lord, it has only been twenty hours since you gave the transfer order. They need to gather the troops stationed in the outer strongholds and organize the camp supplies."

Before the adjutant finished speaking, Gangde was furious: "Pack up the supplies of a fart! Now notify them immediately, and give them ten hours to leave the camp! When the time limit comes, they must set off, and throw away all the things that they can't take with them!"

The adjutant was startled and immediately shouted, "Yes, my lord!"

Although, according to the normal regulations of the regiment, the preparation time for the complete relocation of the garrison of more than 1,000 regiments was two days. But since Gangde said that he would give ten hours at most, that would be ten hours.

The adjutant hurried out to deliver Gonde's order. His heart was also full of doubts, originally their legion was stationed here to monitor more than a dozen large and small principality kingdoms on the coast of the East China Sea.

But yesterday Gangde suddenly ordered to start mobilizing all the troops stationed in various countries, so that they could return to the Iron Triangle Empire along different routes. The order to retreat came very suddenly, and it was a complete withdrawal, and Gangde set a strict time limit.

Since conquering the East China Sea region, this army has been stationed here for three years. At this time, heavy snow closed the roads, and the march was very slow and difficult. Traditionally, winter is a time for a truce and a strike, but Gangde forced the withdrawal of troops despite the bad weather. This made the adjutant feel strong uneasiness in addition to doubts.

A moment later, Gonde was neatly dressed and rushed to the restaurant. At the same time, the herald sounded the horn of the summons, and in less than ten minutes, a fierce general rushed into the dining room, grabbed a seat each, and began to munch on the case. They are well aware that in the coming months, there will be few opportunities to eat at the table like this.

Gang De chewed as he said, "Send three more scout cavalry squads and let them search north along the coastline, and the search range is two hundred kilometers." I still don't think something is quite right!"

A general came out of the cafeteria, gave the order, and ran back to eat hard.
