A Sanctuary powerhouse who was fighting not far from Richard was hit by this metal projectile, and as a result, half of his body was blown to pieces in an instant.

Although the battle situation was difficult, and the defense line was constantly being broken through and repaired, the Crimson Kingdom gradually stabilized its position.

After the entire Farrow became the third points battlefield, a large number of Norland powerhouses finally began to enter Farrow and participate in the battle with the Reapers, including many strong men who had been fighting in the other two points battlefields for a long time, and the addition of a new group of powerhouses immediately and strongly supported the battle situation, allowing Richard to hold several key locations.

At this moment, the Reaper's offensive suddenly slowed down, and then retreated like a tide, and many of the red-eyed warriors couldn't believe their eyes at first, but when they really confirmed that the Reaper had left, they immediately cheered, and for a moment a thunderous cheer resounded across the long front.

But some of the veterans who survived from the early stage, as well as the real powerhouses, couldn't laugh, they all saw how the Reapers collected flesh and blood resources, and now about one-fifth of the Faro has fallen into the hands of the Reapers, not to mention, the population of nearly 100 million alone does not know how many resources have been provided to the Reapers to make alien flesh warriors.

But in any case, there is finally a time to breathe a sigh of relief.

When Richard withdrew from the front line, he suddenly felt unspeakably uncomfortable all over his body, and when he looked down, he found that the robe on his body was in tatters, and he couldn't see what it was like at all, and the exposed skin was full of bloodstains, mud, and all kinds of dirt sprayed from the reaper's body.

For days and nights, Richard never slept or bathed, and his whole life was fighting, fighting, and fighting.

When Richard walked towards the rear supply base, a female warrior with ordinary clothes and armor suddenly walked out next to him, and her face was almost unrecognizable, but the heavy sword she was carrying was very familiar to Richard, and he immediately greeted: "Mex." ”

When Max saw Richard, she was first surprised, then stunned, she nodded abruptly and looked at herself, only to realize that she was as sloppy as Richard, and couldn't help laughing, and then beckoned to Richard and said, "I can really rely on myself now." ”

"Pretty good. Richard looked Max up and down, and found that her temperament had indeed changed, becoming more restrained and rounded, but under the calm appearance, there was an indescribable sharpness.

To be able to have such a reborn change in such a short period of time, in addition to talent, there must be a madness similar to Richard's.

"When to deliver on your promises. Mexes asked, listening to her tone, which seemed more like a joke.

"Anytime. Richard replied with a smile.

"Now that. Mex's eyes lit up.

"Not right now, I'm going to have to clean myself up and go back to Norland once. ”

"I knew you were going to prevaricate. Mexe shook his fist vigorously and said, "I will live until the end of the war, and then see what excuse you have." ”

Richard smiled and said, "I believe in you." ”

The two of them hugged like comrades-in-arms, and then continued their respective journeys, and they could indeed be called comrades-in-arms now.

On the long front, the soldiers are hurrying to heal their wounds, repair the fortifications, and collect the remains of the reapers and pile them together.

A group of specialized alchemists are carefully dismantling the energy metal inside and sending it to the workshop in the rear, while the rest of the wreckage is to be burned by Richard in a blue fire to collect the strange silver metal.

There were now three full bottles of silver metal in Richard's arms.

Half an hour later, Richard had already passed through several portals and appeared in the Eternal Dragon Palace, this time for the sacrifice, Richard only brought two top-level sacrifices, because he had no time to do the construction recently, so he had no more sacrifices.

However, this time, the focus was not on these two top-level sacrifices, but on the three bottles of silver metal.

The first two top-level sacrifices unsurprisingly gave Richard three opportunities to strengthen the dimensional passage, but when he placed the silver metal on the altar, the power of time in the void suddenly surged, and the huge will of the dragon of eternity and time descended again.

"You've been able to collect so many ember essences. The old dragon's voice fluctuated for a thousand years, and the last time Richard heard this exclamation was when the beast tooth bracelet was detected.

"What's the use of this ember essence. Richard asked.

The old dragon's answer left Richard speechless, and it showed a divine grace directly in front of Richard.

God Gives All-Knowing: Ember Essence, this charism is only a partial description of Ember Essence, but it requires Richard to pay the equivalent of a top-level sacrifice.

The meaning of the old dragon is very clear, knowledge is valuable, and if you want to know more, then try to sacrifice.

God has given omniscience this kind of divine grace, and it is the first time Richard has seen it, but with the first time, it is conceivable that there will be a second time, and the third time Richard will know more and more, but it may not be able to directly enhance his strength.

Richard hesitated for a moment, and finally chose this divine grace, the ember essence is related to the core secret of the reaper, and if he wants to repel the reaper, maybe this is the key.

A brief explanation flowed into Richard's consciousness.

Ember essence is a strange substance, it is between living and non-living, it does not form a soul, but a creation that is permeated with this substance will have a surface similar to that of intelligent life, and the more ember essence is used, the more powerful the creation will be, and it can be made even greater.

No one can tell the origin of the ember essence, even the dragon of eternity and time only has partial knowledge about it, and the source part is only an inference based on known rules, but this knowledge is marked by this old dragon as requiring a second-level divine grace to be obtained, and such a high price directly blocked Richard back.

However, at the end of the explanation, there was actually a small piece of rule, although there were only broken fragments, but it gave Richard a deeper understanding of the Ember Essence, and even the control of metal-related rules also went to a higher level.

At this point, Richard felt that this time it was worth the expense.

The rules of Ember Essence seem to be in the order camp, and it is the strictest kind, but whenever it is extended to a certain extent, chaos will inevitably occur, which is why the rules provided by the old dragon are all intermittent fragments.

In the end, a whole bottle of ember essence was actually exchanged for the divine grace equivalent to four top-level sacrifices, in addition to the normal divine grace, the dragon of eternity and time issued an additional discount to it, and actually directly doubled the divine grace.

Seeing this scene, Richard no longer hesitated, and put the remaining two bottles of ember essence on the altar.

This time, the old dragon was even more surprised: "There are still so many ember essences, are you at war with the Reaper." ”

"Almost. Richard didn't admit it, he didn't deny it.

The Dragon of Eternity and Time was silent for a moment, and when the two bottles of Ember Essence were all turned into the power of time, it said: "Since there are so many Ember Essences, then I will give you more privileges, as long as it is a Divine Grace from the Ember Essence, and the total amount reaches twelve Third-Order Divine Graces, I will open a list of some second-order Divine Graces, from which you can choose, but to redeem huàn at a time, you need to consume at least twelve third-order Divine Graces, not ten." ”

Richard couldn't help but get excited when he heard this, he had seen some of the second-order divine grace lists, and he knew very well the power of the divine graces in them, although the gap between each order of divine grace between Eternity and the Dragon of Time was ten times stricter, but as long as he could, Richard would rather spend twenty third-order divine graces than exchange for second-order divine graces.

Just as Richard was full of anticipation, a list of second-order divine graces appeared in his mind.

The series of materials listed at the beginning alone were enough to take his breath away: the sharp horns of the ancient war beasts, the complete bones of the legendary dragon (three), the severed arm of the Abyss Great Lord, and the prismatic crystal pillar, which is known as one of the strongest substances in the world, any of these materials fell into Richard's hands, and it would immediately be half a super fifth-order structure.

While Richard was still flipping through the list, the Dragon of Eternity and Time said, "The second-order charisma will start next time, and this time the charism is ready for you." ”

Without waiting for Richard to protest, the will of the dragon of eternity and time faded away.

There was a round drop of silvery liquid metal suspended over the altar, and a small dark gold scroll.

Richard reached out and took the silver-like drop of metal, it was incredibly heavy, a small drop weighing hundreds of kilograms, it looked very similar to the ember essence, but it was a little different.

The difference was that the ember essence looked alive and alive, as if it had a life of its own, while the ember essence that Richard extracted from the remains of the Reaper was lifeless in comparison.

At this time, a passage explains that it entered Richard's consciousness, 'Activated Ember Essence', which is the state before the Ember Essence is integrated with other artifacts, and it can be integrated into most equipment, so that the equipment has a certain amount of wisdom, that is, this activated Ember Essence can raise legendary equipment to the artifact level.

On the other hand, if it were used as the core material, Richard would be able to make a true sixth-order structure.

However, the sixth-order structure is not so easy to appear, in addition to the design, the bottleneck is still the material, and the activated ember essence can be used as the main material, but it itself does not have other characteristics other than intelligence, which means that it also needs another main material, as well as a large number of auxiliary materials.

With this drop of Activation Essence, Richard was already a third of the way to the true sixth-order construct.

He picked up the scroll for unknown purpose, and when his fingers touched it, the scroll turned into the power of time and melted into Richard's body.

Each power of time carries a large amount of rule power, and in an instant, Richard's comprehension of the spatial structure has taken another big step, and then a large amount of information flooded into Richard's consciousness, and he understood what this scroll was.

ps: It's the weekend again, let's double change tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
