After returning to the Lake of the Soul from the scarlet world, Lester found that his spiritual body seemed to be more condensed and real than before. At least before, he had to hold his breath at the bottom of the lake, but now he no longer needed his fictitious 'oxygen'.
You can breathe casually without affecting your movements at all.
"Maybe there are other effects."
Picking up the glowing red rune on the altar, Lester suddenly felt a sense of spiritual connection. Closing his eyes, the man carefully felt the information conveyed to him by the rune.
"Soul harvesting, vitality corrosion, extraction and explosion, and rune shield... these are the only three abilities that have been castrated in large numbers. Perhaps because of the fragments, the abilities are not complete yet, but the effect is the same as in the game.
The Domination system's [Dark Harvest], [Taste of Blood] and [Greedy Hunter] are somewhat similar, and there is no difference between the Rat King's attack methods, but there does not seem to be a rune shield in the Domination system. It seems that reality and the game are still the same.
There is a big difference,
If I could apply the power of the runes to my body, I would be able to obtain the same blood-sucking, violent and corrosive effects as the Rat King, and perhaps it was because Elena had obliterated the consciousness of the original runes and used the runes together.
A lot of Wen's natural talent has also been eliminated, the power of the runes has been weakened by forced restraint, and everything has to start from scratch... Although it is a bit troublesome, it is still many times stronger than before."
After confirming the power of the red rune, Lester was in a good mood and carefully touched the cute and reliable green rune Elena. The man took the red rune and tried to leave the Lake of the Soul.
Consciousness rose, and when he opened his eyes, Lester had returned to the altar again.
Looking down, he saw that his right hand was indeed holding the red rune stone taken from the spiritual world. The man nodded with satisfaction and looked at the confidants guarding him.
"Margaret, Didist, you did a great job."
With a silent nod, Didist took the initiative to retreat, and Margaret dismissed the black guards and came forward.
"Lord Leicester, what happened?"
Noticing that others had left, Lester placed the red runestone on the empty slot of the crystal crown, and then placed the crown on the ninth corner of the altar.
"I tried to fuse this red rune stone, but I didn't expect it to succeed. Now that I can use it casually, I have gained some powerful power."
"You mean that you have mastered the power of the runes in this world?"
Margaret was a little surprised, and her hoarse voice was trembling. The woman knelt down on one knee and immediately bowed to the man. However, before she lowered her head, she was directly pulled up by the helpless man.
"You should stop doing this in front of me. You are my closest subordinate and my woman. There is no need to be so respectful to me. This is my order to you. Promise me not to kneel down in the future."
Staring at the man, the scars on Margaret's face softened a lot.
"Yes, I promise you."
"That's true."
After kissing the woman's lips lightly, Lester smiled.
"Call Xiaohua over, try to recreate the ore transformation ceremony, and then transport most of the iron ore storage to see how much orichalcum can be transformed at one time. After I leave, I still have to take this rune with me.
Let’s go.”
"Little flower?"
Being a little dazed by the man's sudden attack, the bewildered woman didn't realize who Xiaohua was for a moment.
"Flower rat, you idiot!"
Knocking on the woman's hard helmet, the man leaned over the woman's ear, turning the cold-faced heart-gouger general into a steaming red shrimp and into a shy little woman.
"After the ore transformation is completed, let's relax tonight... I should really design a suitable rear crotch armor for [Black Guard], the kind that can be disassembled..."
"I...I'm leaving...you...don't talk nonsense, rear, rear guard...then how can we fight..."
…
After another night of hard work, under the guidance of Huazhi Shu, it took several hours just to slaughter cattle, sheep and wild animals and prepare enough blood for the altar. Enough iron was placed in the [Ore Transformation Office] connected to the altar.
Mine, Lester came to the altar and tried to make the red runestones resonate with the altar.
"Buzz~"
After the red runestones began to emit a dazzling red light, the octagonal altar was instantly activated, blood began to bubble, and the water level dropped a lot in just ten seconds.
"Add blood! Hurry and add blood! If you want to transform all the ores in the transformation room, this is simply not enough!"
The clamoring Squirrel commanded the Black Guard warriors from the side. After receiving Lester's nod, the warriors dumped the wooden bucket filled with animal blood and slowly poured the blood into the blood basin of the altar.
"Actually, the effect of using human blood is the best."
Estimating how quickly the blood would disappear, the squirrel looked at Lester carefully, and found that the lord didn't mean to be disgusted, so he said one more thing.
"I have seen scenes where rat sacrifices used human blood to transform holy stones. The efficiency of using human blood to transform orichalcum is about two to three times that of animal blood."
“Is there a difference in the specific orichalcum produced?”
"I don't know... I haven't tested it. Anyway, it was thrown into a mechanical furnace for smelting in the end."
"I'm telling you, there is a difference. The purity of orichalcum ore condensed with human blood is higher. It's just that we don't have enough death row prisoners, so it's better to use animal blood. Anyway, the smelting is just a matter of size, and we are not bad at that.
time."
"oh."
After convincing the squirrel, Lester silently stared at the altar. It was not until the blood was completely used up and he was unwilling to continue slaughtering the endless livestock that he put away the runes.
Arriving at the rune transformation room, scattered orichalcum ore and unconverted iron ore were intertwined and piled up into a mountain. It was obvious that the iron ore had been filled as much as possible when the iron ore was placed. It was no longer possible to place more at this moment, even if it was
Margaret, who had seen ups and downs, could not help but be deeply shocked by the scene before her.
The soldiers were asked to take a quick inventory. After statistics, there were more than 1,300 kilograms of unconverted iron ore, and a total of 89 kilograms of orichalcum orichalcum that had been converted.
The blood of more than a hundred cattle and sheep can be exchanged for dozens of kilograms of orichalcum. This is a miracle that cannot be described in words, and it is an opportunity for the Emerald Territory to conquer the world.
Everything in front of them is living magic steel equipment. As long as there is enough blood, the Emerald Territory can build an invincible army fully equipped with magic steel equipment and sweep across all the forces in the continent!
"Lord Leicester, as long as we have enough blood, can we infinitely transform orichalcum ore?"
Faced with Margaret's expectations, Lester shook his head.
"The transformation process itself is also consuming some special power stored in the runes. According to the current progress, if more than 500 kilograms of orichalcum are converted, the power of the runes will be dissipated and need to be collected again."
"How to collect the power of runes?"
Turning her face sideways, Margaret could only see the indifferent right side of Lester's face, while the other side was always shrouded in darkness.
"Kill, kill many, many people..."
From a woman's perspective, a man's voice seems no different than before.
