Chapter 47 Original Sin II

Richard was surprised to find that ogres needed an unusually large number. Ogres are a naturally powerful race, and their large appetite limits their numbers, and it can't be too much. Trying to catch 1,100 ogres is definitely a huge project.

"Why do ogres need so many of them?" asked Richard curiously.

"It's based on racial potential. The more powerful the potential, the more likely it is to give birth to a strong race, the more difficult it is to parse, master. If you want me to create a dragon for you in the future, it's not impossible. But I guess you'll need to find me 10,000 dragons to devour first. ”

Tens of thousands of dragons!

Richard only felt that it was dark in front of him. Not to mention tens of thousands of dragons, even tens of thousands of ogres, he doesn't know where to look. However, Richard frowned and asked, "But the resolution of the Feathered Serpent is over 100%, and I don't remember sending you the Feathered Serpent." Did you devour too many Feathered Serpents in the Land of Turmoil, or did you say that the potential for this race to grow is too low?"

"Neither. The high resolution of the Feathered Serpent is due to the blood of the Holy Spirit that you sent. Zuka's body is a feathered serpent, and he has stepped into the ranks of demigods. If you can give me a cup of the blood of the dragon god, then I can at least create a red dragon for you, or maybe a black dragon. ”

Blood of the Dragon God...... Richard decisively decided not to think about it anymore.

"Okay! I see. One more thing, brood, why would you meddle in the battle of Gonder?"

"Are you asking about the battle against the orca? Actually, I've been collecting the number of battles that Gonder commanded, and his command ability is at least three levels worse than yours. The Humanoid Knight wasn't used in the same way that he did, so I took over the command of the Humanoid Knight in order to minimize overall combat losses, and to demonstrate to Gonder how to use my combat class. The first batch of humanoid knights who rushed up were the first batch of people I created. A third of their lives have already passed, so naturally they need to be used first and consumed. ”

The brood's answer left Richard completely speechless. Only then did he remember that it had been almost a year since the first batch of humanoid knights were created by the brood. Not only the humanoid knights, but also the other combat units created by the brood have a natural life of less than three years. Richard's talent for intelligence immediately calculated that it was indeed the best choice to trade the lives of powerful enemies with these combat units that did not have much life left.

But in the human world, reason is not the whole of the world.

Richard sighed and asked again, "Is there a way to improve the life of an elite humanoid knight?"

"Why? Three years of life is long enough, in fact, this is slightly beyond the optimal range, according to the intensity of the Faro War, the life of the combat unit is about a year, which will increase my ability to create a Zào combat unit by at least a third. ”

"Don't ask why, can it be done?" said Richard.

"Master, this is completely unnecessary! Among the combat units I created, only the crimson and unicorn that used the divine nature had their own souls, and the other combat units were puppets without any souls. Their mission is to destroy the enemy at any cost. Master, please remember that all combat units are consumables, and they are not worth and should not be emotionally invested in!"

Consumables, a very apt word, is so accurate that people want to scold their mother.

"Okay! consumables!" said Richard viciously.

The brood was unexpectedly silent for a while before she said, "Master, your current situation is very detrimental to your continued strength. Consumables are consumables, and they should be sacrificed as soon as necessary. Master, you have a heavy responsibility, and if you want to do it all, then you shouldn't have it. ”

Richard was taken aback: "Do you know what I think?"

"Master, our souls actually have intertwined parts. Just as you can know my deposits, I can feel part of your thoughts. Your thoughts about responsibility are so strong that they are completely shoehorned into me. I can't even ignore it. As Quicksand-sama told you, I actually share a piece of soul with you. ”

Li Chao swelled with strange feelings, and today's mother nest is surprisingly sensual. It wasn't until this moment that Richard felt that the brood did have a soul of its own, and an idea of its own.

"Then what do I do?" Richard didn't know why he was asking such a question, especially when he asked the brood.

The brood seemed to think seriously before a moment later she said, "Master, if you want to fulfill all the responsibilities you have publicly and unpublicly promised, then you must put aside your personal sense of honor and right and wrong, and consider every decision from the most realistic point of view. ”

"You mean......" Richard took a deep breath and said slowly, "I will bear all the sins?"

"Yes. Now that you have decided to embark on this path, it is impossible to escape the sins of those mortals. If it's not up to you, it's going to be carried by the people you love and care about. You, who have awakened your first real name, shouldn't run away like this. ”

"I see......" Richard sat up straight and said, "Thank you, brood." By the way, I want to ask, do you have your own name?"

"Are you asking for your real name?"

"You have a real name, too?" said Richard, surprised again.

"When I am at the tenth order, I will awaken my true name. The brood replied.

"Okay! I'll do my best to get you to the tenth order!" Richard said categorically.

“...... Sooner or later, you'll regret it. ”

"What is regret?" laughed Richard.

Richard opened the door and asked the attendant to call Gonde in. A moment later, Gonde walked in, confused, not understanding why Richard had suddenly called him.

"How many slaves do we have left?" asked Richard.

"So far, a total of thirty-seven thousand slaves have been purchased, chief. ”

"Tomorrow you will select 200 elves, 300 barbarians, and 900 dwarves from among the slaves and escort them to the border of the unstable lands. If you don't have enough of them, buy some from other slave traders, you see?" said Richard.

"Land of turmoil!" Gonder shuddered. Richard's followers, everyone knows what lies behind in the Land of Turmoil. As soon as he thought of this, Gangde had a guess about the fate of these slaves, and his heart couldn't help but feel a chill.

Richard took in the changes in Gangde's expression, but just waved his hand and said lightly: "This is my decision, you can do it!"

“...... Yes, boss!"

Three days later, Richard quietly returned to Norland. He brought back a large amount of minerals, and in more than four months, Faro's income from collecting taxes, to caravan dividends, and then to selling enchanted equipment amounted to more than 1.6 million yuan. Richard used 300,000 to replenish the magic materials, and gave the old butler 300,000 yuan as the cost of maintaining the territory. Then he went to the basement of the family castle alone, activated the ultra-long-range teleportation array leading to the dark blue, and silently placed a small box in the center of the teleportation array.

The box contained ten high-purity magic crystals, each of which could be exchanged for 100,000 gold coins.

The light flashed in the ultra-long-range teleportation array, and the locket containing the magic crystal had disappeared. Richard didn't wait for a response from the other side of the teleportation array, and turned to leave.

A moment later, a black and gold image appeared above the ultra-long-range teleportation array, and the gray dwarf was holding the box, his jaw was about to fall in surprise, he looked around and shouted, "Richard! Richard?"

But the basement was empty, and Richard was long gone. In the large basement, only the cries of the gray dwarves echoed.

At this time, Richard had already left the floating island and was walking on the way to the Eternal Dragon Palace.

He had resolved that from this moment on, all the sins and responsibilities would be borne by himself.

When he returned to the Green Forest Plane, he was no different from when Richard left. All the fighters are still either cutting down trees or blowing them up. Ever since Deep Blue sent the second batch of improved gunpowder, mages and alchemists have been inventing new ways to play in practice. For example, a small amount of gunpowder is sealed in a sealed container, pasted to a selected pit on the body of the rock tree, and then heavily armed warriors go up and smash it one by one with a heavy hammer. The fragments of the explosion can't penetrate the refined full-body plate armor, but they will blow the rock wood out of a deep pit, and then the powerful warrior will shake it or hit it, and it will fall. This method eliminates the need to drill holes in rock trunks and add gunpowder, and the process is rough and bold, and the efficiency is greatly improved.

With the exception of rock wood, other precious species cannot be fried, but can only be carefully cut down with a logging axe, and then dragged back to cut carefully.

Around the base city, the open space is getting bigger and bigger. It's been a long time since the Green Forest Elves have appeared, and the druids have disappeared like nothing, leaving Nerith, who wants to ambush them, depressed for a long time.

Nereus and Agamemnon were both shocked by Sandru's arrival, they didn't expect that Richard would find such a high-level necromancer, and he was still very talented, and it seemed that he had a good chance of becoming an archmage. After the initial excitement of coming to Midorimori, Sandru quickly figured out what Midorimori was like and what he was tasked with.

So the necromancer made a list of materials, and then began to set up a large summoning magic circle in the forest outside the city to communicate with the undead plane and summon creatures directly from there. In order to help him complete the magic circle quickly, many mages, including Richard and Pamir, took turns to help set it up. Sandru is indeed very accomplished in necromancy, and the magic array he designed is on a grand scale. With the efforts of many magicians, it also took three days to complete it completely.

During these three days, Luoqi was once again in the spotlight. Not because she's glamorous, but on the contrary, she's too ordinary. She silently laid out the magic array, coming the earliest and leaving the latest every day, and the process of drawing the magic array was meticulous and distracted. The concentration made her face seem to have a strange glow. She did everything she had to do, so serious that she saw nothing else.
