Chapter 397 Plane Channel
Although the seed core has grown greatly, William has broken through the legendary bottleneck, but there are cracks in the seed space, and it is impossible to store Dou Qi. If William wants to exert the legendary level of combat power, he needs to repair the cracks in the Dou Qi core.
Richard has been protecting William. He found that his muscles were broken and blood was gushing out. Although he didn't know the situation of his Dou Qi core, he immediately released a spell to heal serious injuries. The powerful vitality poured into William's body, not only healing William's body, but also repairing some cracks in the Dou Qi seed core.
"Continue to release the healing spell." William used all his strength to say a sentence intermittently.
After hearing William's request, Richard immediately released a powerful healing spell until his magic power was exhausted.
Richard's magic power is not weaker than that of a legendary first-level mage. The healing spell released by this huge magic power has an extremely amazing effect. In an instant, William's injuries have recovered by 80%, and the cracks in the core have been repaired by 70%. .
If William had not been protected by Richard, a small legendary magician, even if he had saved his life, he might not have been able to repair the cracks in the core of his Dou Qi seed without ten or eight years of cultivation.
After all, William's talent was a little short of being promoted to a legend, and his age was also a bit unforgiving. Normally, the best age to break through the legend should be in his thirties or forties.
Unfortunately, it takes a long process to be promoted to a legend. Even people with outstanding talents rarely reach the ninth ring and touch the bottleneck of legend in their thirties.
Most of the good materials and beautiful qualities have the opportunity to break through the bottleneck of legend only in their fifties. Most legends in the Dawn Plane are promoted in their forties or fifties.
William had already missed the opportunity to be promoted to a legend. He was promoted to a legend at the age of sixty-seven. The water of life played the most core role.
The core of the Dou Qi seed underwent a transformation, and William suddenly felt a roar. The Dou Qi in his body increased more and more, and it actually increased three times.
Richard personally checked William's body and found that his strength had increased to forty-five points, his agility had eighteen points, and his endurance had reached twenty-five points. His physical strength was like a superman.
Now William can move five tons of heavy objects by himself. His destructive power is stronger than that of an elite infantry squadron. You should know that an infantry squadron has a total of more than 150 people, more than a dozen professionals, and is equipped with magical items such as alchemical bombs and explosive arrows.
On the front battlefield, a legendary warrior is enough to compete with an elite infantry battalion.
At this time, even William's weakest mental power has reached 12 points, exceeding the level of a second-ring magician.
William opened his eyes, and the Dou Qi seed underwent a transformation, containing a huge life force. From this moment on, he was steadily promoted to a legend and entered the real extraordinary. Not only did his life span increase by 60 years, but his life essence was also different from that of ordinary people.
Because William's injuries had not yet recovered, Richard called Sophia and Undine to release a healing spell for him, completely repairing the cracks in the Dou Qi seed space.
After William's condition stabilized, Richard took out the legendary-level ability fruit from the Starlight Bottle and gave it to William to use.
The legendary red ability fruit can only be used by legendary warriors and legendary knights.
The only non-legendary professional who can barely digest this huge energy is the young dragon who is equivalent to a high-level professional.
Even if it is a high-level monster with a strong body, eating the legendary ability fruit will also cause indigestion, and the violent magic power will burst the body.
Richard is not sure how long the red legendary ability fruit can be preserved, so this only fruit must be given to William for use. After all, only Sylph and William can use it in Harland County now.
Sylph has drunk the water of life, and Richard will not concentrate the best extraordinary resources on her alone.
Although Sylph is Wendy's mother, her relationship with Richard is not as close as William. After all, a mother-in-law is not as close as a father.
After eating the red ability fruit, a violent energy entered William's body, but William's fighting spirit seed had undergone a transformation, which could digest this violent energy.
A day later, the ability fruit had been digested by William, and he also gained a special skill.
This skill is similar to the seven-ring magic transformation giant bear, but when William uses this skill, the consumption of magic power is very small. After transforming into a giant bear, the physical strength will be more significantly improved, and the ability effect is equivalent to the legendary level.
After William transformed into a giant bear, his strength attribute broke through 60 points, and his frontal combat power was a few points stronger than that of the legendary elf knight Sylph. However, the transformation giant bear spell can only last for one hour, and the cooling time is as long as seven days, so it can only be used at critical times.
Sylph has mastered a lot of elf bloodline spells and has stronger adaptability than William. When the two sides really broke out in conflict, William's combat power is still far inferior to Sylph.
However, William ate the legendary ability fruit, which is equivalent to mastering a legendary ability, and his combat power is much stronger than that of ordinary legendary warriors. For example, the legendary warrior Harmon of the Duke of Edward, although he was promoted to the second legendary level, his strength can no longer compete with William.
After William was promoted, there were already two legendary professionals in Harland. After William digested the ability fruit, Richard decided to talk to his father, hoping that William could stay in Harland.
After all, William has been promoted to a legend, it is best for him to serve Harland. When William comes back, he can be in charge of one aspect and coordinate the defense of the northern border.
This way, Richard can free up his hands and concentrate on his research in magic.
"Father has been promoted to Legend, what are his plans for the future?" Richard's personality has always been very direct, and he always speaks straight to the point.
"I am still going to return to the south and continue to serve King Roger."
William has a knot in his heart about staying in Harland. He is Richard's father, and he is not willing to serve under Richard. It is indeed a difficult thing to let his father obey his son's orders. Moreover, he has opinions on many of Richard's practices. If he interferes, even if they are father and son, conflicts will be difficult to avoid over time, which will damage the relationship that is not very deep to begin with.
So after discovering that Richard's ability surpassed his own, William decisively chose to let go and handed over the territory completely to Richard. And when Richard and Bernie and others had a conflict, he stood aside and watched, while he managed his connections within the Grant royal system to protect the Harland family.
Although he was promoted to Legend, William still did not intend to change this strategy.
Seeing William's firm attitude, Richard could only agree to his request, but this time when exploring the azure plane, Richard hoped that William could participate in the action. With one more legendary professional, the expedition would have a better chance of success.
Since getting the key to open the plane channel last year, Richard began to prepare for this expedition.
Now Harland has two legendary melee professionals, Sylph and William. Richard and Sophia join forces, and the attack power of the Starlight Bottle can be comparable to that of a legendary third-level magician. Although the strength is not as good as the last time entering the dead world, this time entering the azure plane, there is no need to block the plane channel, which is actually easier than the last mission.
According to Richard's plan, after entering the dead world this time, he will not take the initiative to cause trouble for legendary undead creatures, especially the legendary lich.
After the Goddess's Birthday, Richard began to recruit members for the expedition team.
In addition to Richard, Sophia, and Wendini, Sutton, Sylph, and William must go. In addition, the eighth-level elf Rola, the eighth-level knight Wilde, the eighth-level warrior Soros, and the eighth-level warrior Jennings are all carefully selected by Richard.
Because of the lack of magic power, Richard also plans to let Wendy and Eve, two six-ring magicians, participate in the battle. After all, a very important factor in going deep into the dead world this time is to hunt the undead, harvest soul crystals, and refine high-level Styx potions. Every high-level magician who enjoys the benefits should participate in the expedition.
On January 13, everyone rested for a while, reunited with their families for more than ten days, and had a happy goddess birthday.
In the meeting room of the Harland Mage Association, as the main members sat down, Richard slowly walked in from the door. He smiled apologetically and said, "Sorry, I'm late."
"Recently, you are on your honeymoon, and we all understand."
Uncle Soros waved his hand with a smirk on his face. After hearing this, several people who were close to Richard smiled kindly, while Jennings and Wilde, who were of lower status, turned their heads away and did not dare to speak easily.
Jennings was one year younger than Richard. He successfully promoted to the eighth level last winter. He was only thirty-five years old after the New Year. Even if he did not need to invest too many extraordinary resources, there was a high probability of being promoted to a legend.
According to Richard's estimation, he should be promoted to a legend faster than Sutton. As for Richard and Sofia, they should wait for more than ten years to be promoted to legend.
Uncle Soros's foundation was not as good as William's. Although he was a year or two younger, he also took a portion of the Water of Life, which increased his lifespan by twenty years. It is estimated that he can be promoted to the ninth level at most. To break through the legend, more resources are needed than William.
Richard and Undine had just got married, and it was a time when they were very fresh. During this period, they stayed up late every day.
Hearing his uncle's joke, Richard was embarrassed and reluctantly explained: "I discussed a magic problem with Undine last night and slept late."
"You don't need to explain." William gave Richard a look that said I have mastered everything. Then he said: "Men like young and beautiful girls, but you have to know your limits and don't ignore Sofia to avoid civil strife in the court."
Since Richard married Undine as a court lady, Sofia has been in a cold war with him for a long time. She didn't even show up at this meeting. In order to avoid irritating Sofia, Undine did not attend the meeting and stayed in the Duke's Mansion waiting for news.
"Fifteen years ago, a new plane channel appeared between the two worlds. I followed Pastor Mavila, Archbishop Senna, and Duke Jonathan to block the plane channel and entered the dead world once.
The dead world is gloomy and dark, and the air is full of negative energy, which makes it impossible for living people to breathe. It is necessary to use the five-ring magic energy to isolate and form an energy shield to protect oneself and filter the negative energy in the air in order to survive for a long time. Therefore, the power of the magician is the most critical to explore the dead world.
In the dead world, you can see a faint grayish white, which is very monotonous and very dangerous. Although most of the undead are brainless creatures, their spiritual power is very sharp, and the soul fire can sense the breath of living people. So after entering the dead world, you can't act blindly, let alone easily.
After entering the dead world, you must pay attention to protecting your energy shield to avoid meaningless combat."
Richard told everyone about the situation of the dead world. After all, he was the only one among the expedition team who had experience in entering the dead world.
At this meeting, Richard talked about many details of the war fifteen years ago. Hearing that there were three legendary undead creatures living in an area of tens of thousands of square kilometers, everyone had a clear understanding of the dangers of the undead world.
In this kind of world, there is likely to be a Lord of the Dead. According to the ancient experience of the Dawn Plane, the Lord of the Dead can be as powerful as the gods.
Richard made preparations for the war. On January 17, everyone quietly came to the barren mountain of the Dragon Canyon.
The plane channel controlled by the Star Alliance is located in the Dragon Canyon, not far from the plane channel created by the Crimson Horn, a cult organization.
The Crimson Horn cult believes in the Vampire Prince. It is said that this Vampire Prince was also a powerful demigod in ancient times, and seemed to be trapped in the Azure Plane.
After the Azure Plane was controlled by the Lord of the Dead, several plane channels were blocked, and the evil god Bloody Son could not return and slept in a secret stronghold in the Azure Plane.
The Crimson Horn, a cult organization, lost the gods of faith and had no backing, and could only hide in the dark like a mouse to develop.
According to public intelligence, the Crimson Horn has basically been causing unrest in the human kingdom on the East Coast in recent years.
This cult has a legendary third-level vampire prince as the pope, a legendary second-level vampire duke as the high priest, and the remaining four cardinals are all legendary first-level. Behind this cult, the power of the vampire clan is looming.
A cult has six legends, and the high-level combat power is much stronger than that of the Grant Kingdom. No wonder the Grant royal family did not dare to investigate further and dispatched extraordinary forces to find trouble with the Bloody Horn.
The Grant Kingdom used to have only three legends. Now Duke Brener died in battle, Grand Duke Jonathan left, and Sylph and William were promoted. Now there are still three legendary professionals, and the high-level combat power is still far from being comparable to the Bloody Horn.
The reason why the Bloody Horn cult wants to create a plane gap and open up the channel between the two worlds is probably to find the place where the demigod Bloody Son is sleeping.
The Dragon Canyon is still the territory of the Grant royal family. Richard and others have to be more careful when they are active here, and try to avoid exposing traces to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Richard found the location where the plane channel was built through the coordinates left by Shao Gongyuan.
The plane channel was built in a cave. The magicians of the Star Alliance blocked the cave by special means. No one has entered here for more than 3,000 years.
A positive energy purification array was arranged outside the cave. It seems that this cave is also a natural small magic well. The magic power emitted can just power the positive energy purification array.
Richard, Sofia and other magicians carefully studied the runes of this magic array and were impressed by the exquisite design of the Star Alliance magicians.
After entering the cave, Richard vaguely saw a stone door. Under the special arrangement of the magic array, the stone door was twisted by the power of space, revealing a faint gap.
A five-foot-long stone sword was inserted on the stone door, which should be the fourth-level legendary magic prop Star Sword mentioned by Shao Gongyuan.
This legendary sword is the core of maintaining the plane channel and the last resort of Shao Gongyuan to seal the plane channel.
A trace of death permeated the gap, and the interior of the cave was filled with gray-white fog.
After entering the cave, the magicians immediately released the five-ring magic energy isolation to help everyone keep the negative energy out. At the same time, Richard and others also released the three-ring magic to hide the breath, so that everyone's mental fluctuations were restrained.
Having made preparations in advance, Richard took out the key to open the plane channel from the Starlight Bottle and put the ruby ring into the card slot on the stone door. In an instant, the stone door opened automatically, and everyone in the exploration team suddenly felt dizzy.
After 15 years, Richard once again set foot in the dead world.
