Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Enemy in Need

After catching up with Richard's group, Reilly brought Viscount Sim to him and explained what had happened.

Richard looked at the fat viscount in amazement and asked, "This is a bloodstained land, why do you dare to approach a team ten times your own and have to requisition other people's knights?

Seeing Richard, Sim, who had a frightened face, regained his arrogant expression again: "What kind of pioneer knight are you? I am the Viscount of the Highlands Unicorn, and this title comes from ......"

Richard interrupted Chim's screams and said in a deep voice, "I know that you are the Viscount of the Highlands Unicorn, and I also know that your father is the Count of Atul, and your mother is the cousin of the current king. ”

Sim became even more energetic: "Since you know, why don't you release me quickly? When I return to the territory, I will come to you with a large army to settle accounts." When the time comes, I'll ...... it well."

Looking at Sim, who was foaming at the mouth, Richard frowned and said, "Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you now?"

"You're just a little pioneer knight...... "Halfway through his words, Sim suddenly came back to his senses, and a panicked look appeared on his face again. Only then did he discover that Richard was no less ferocious than Reilly, and that he was not afraid of the name of the Highland Unicorn Viscount.

Richard smiled and said, "It seems that you are not stupid enough to go home. However, in order to make a better impression on you, I think it is necessary to have some extra entertainment. A few of you, strip this noble viscount naked, and then give him ten lashes, remember to use this viscount's own whip, the guy in our hands is not advanced enough!"

In the blink of an eye, the barbarians were at the sound of Sim's pig-killing screams. The viscount was fat, but his skin was fair and delicate, and he even looked a little dazzling.

An infantry knight whipped his horsewhip and whipped Sim on the ass. However, he was not a true torture expert after all, and the force of the whip was deflected, leaving a deep blood mark on the inner thigh of the viscount, so Chim's cry immediately increased an octave.

Richard raised his hand and stopped the second whip of the Foot Knight. He pointed between Chim's legs and said, "Be careful, don't break this part of the Viscount, it's very delicate! If I'm not mistaken, the Viscount's value is seventy percent of it." ”

The knight of the foot did not understand the meaning of Richard's words, but this did not prevent him from carrying out his orders. So he tried to keep his strength in check, so that the whip landed on Sim's back and hips, without touching the viscount's thigh.

Listening to the constant sounding of the screams, Reilly always felt that he was watching a scene of killing pigs.

Ten lashes were finally finished, but Sim was still howling. The whip marks on his body were slowly bulging, and a long pain ensued.

Richard walked up to Chim, patted him on the face, and said, "I'm Richard, Richard Akmund." Remember my name, and my face. Also, gather your army as soon as you get back and come to me for revenge. ”

With that, Richard stood up and took out a handkerchief and wiped the hand that had just slapped Chim's face. For the noble unicorn viscount, this action angered him even more than the ten lashes just now. Sim's chubby face flushed red, making one wonder if he would faint the next moment.

Seeing the barbarians and foot knights leaving, the unicorn viscount's guards immediately picked him up and took off their own clothes to change into him.

Looking at their figures gradually moving away, Reilly touched his chin and said, "The intelligence of those guards doesn't seem to be very high, and they don't even run away at this time." ”

Erin was stunned for a moment and said, "After they go back, ......"

"It's dead. Richard replied.

"Why did you do this to that idiot?" Quicksand asked, frowning.

"Because we need enemies, and Viscount Chim is a great target. Richard replied with a smile.

The party continued on and arrived at Richard's first territory on the Farrow plane: the village of Bran at dusk the next day.

Richard did not stay long in this place, but only met with the chief of the village and a few old men, inquired about the demographic structure of the village and the surrounding area, and then left the village of Bran and headed for the territory of Baron Fontaine.

By this time, Richard's messenger had already set out first, bringing the news that he wanted to meet with the Duke of Greywolf. In addition, Richard gave orders to the brood, which lived in the Land of Turmoil, to move towards the borders of the Bloodstained Lands.

"Richard, what are you going to use to impress Duke Greywolf?" Reilly asked a crucial question as he walked the way.

"Of course it's the magic pattern. ”

"That's not enough. Reilly shook his head and said, "Our scaled-down version of the build isn't enough to impress a duke-level character. You have to come up with something that is weighty enough for him to make the right choice. ”

"Something of sufficient weight......," said Richard, after a moment of silence, "for the real big man, only life is the most important thing." Isn't it because the dragon of eternity and time can rise above the gods because of its divine grace that can make the strong live longer?"

Quicksand's eyes lit up, and he said, "Yes, how did I forget about this?" We have the Book of Time, and although we can't sacrifice through it yet, I can make Duke Blue Wolf believe that he can gain a longer life through sacrifice in the future. ”

Richard suddenly remembered that there was a god of time in the plane of Faro, so he said, "By the way, there is a god of time here, isn't his priesthood the same as that of the Eternal Dragon?"

"How is that possible?" Reilly waved his hand and said, "The level of the Efaro plane is not enough to give birth to a god of time, and it is almost the same as the Azeroth plane. ”

"Azeroth plane?" was a name Richard hadn't heard of, and one that interested him.

"The plane that can give birth to the god of time?!Isn't that even more advanced than Noland!" Quicksand exclaimed.

Reilly smiled and said, "That plane not only has thousands of legendary powerhouses and nearly a hundred super powerhouses, but also gave birth to several higher-level existences!"

Those who heard these words were all deeply shocked. Gangde and the others heard "thousands of legendary powerhouses", Erin and the others heard "nearly a hundred super powerhouses", and Richard and Quicksand heard "higher-level existences".

Richard swallowed and asked, "Is that your hometown?"

Reilly smiled mysteriously and said, "Instead of caring about this, you might as well think about how to convince Duke Blue Wolf." ”

"Indeed, that's what you need to care about right now. Quicksand stared at Richard, a pale golden light flashed in his eyes, and said: "The two divine graces on your body, the torrent of life and the calmness, are still there, which shows that the will of the Eternal Dragon is above the gods of Faro. So, this god of time is the guy who doesn't need to worry the least. ”

God-given Torrent of Life: Over the next fifteen years, your body will no longer age.

Divine Gift: The next sub-plane you enter that does not have an eternal dragon temple will slow down the flow of time to one-tenth of the Norland plane, for thirty years of that plane. This God-given effect does not work on the main plane.

The torrent of life and the unhurried were the rewards of Richard's sacrifice in the Temple of the Eternal Dragon, two charisms of extraordinary strategic significance.

The effect of the torrent of life extended Richard's lifespan by fifteen years, and the unhurried divine gift made Faro's time flow speed one-tenth that of the Norland continent. This means that Richard has been fighting in Faro for ten years, and the Norland continent has only been one year. When the enemies saw him again, the boy might have become a very threatening being.

However, when Richard fought on the Farrow plane, his own lifespan would also decrease. Ten years of living here meant that Richard himself was ten years older. But when stride is paired with the torrent of life, they take on a new meaning.

Richard shook his head and said, "Not necessarily. If your faith is discovered by Lunay, he will surely destroy us at any cost. ”

Hearing his words, Quicksand's face also showed a solemn look. If the belief in the Eternal and Time Dragons spreads in Faro, Lunai will become an extremely embarrassing existence, and even the foundations of the faith may be shaken. At that time, Lu Nai's level will drop all the way, and even fall to the altar.

Richard thought for a while, the dark clouds on his face gradually melted, and said, "Okay, don't worry about this yet. The duke's family practiced ancestor worship, and their relationship with the gods was incompatible. If he sees the hope of prolonging his life, he will definitely keep this secret, and it will never be allowed to be destroyed by the followers of Lunay. So, all you have to do is find a way to convince the Duke that we can give him a longer life. ”

Quicksand nodded, then opened the Book of Time and fell into deep thought.

As their own strength grows, the lifespan of the strong will gradually increase. After reaching level eighteen, the lifespan of human beings will be extended to about one hundred and fifty years, and the lifespan of legendary powerhouses can exceed one thousand years.

In addition to leveling up, the main way to prolong the life of the Norlanders is through sacrifice, which is why the status of the Eternal Dragon is much higher than that of other gods.

On top of a longer lifespan is the ultimate dream of every living being: eternity.
