In this world, the most valuable items that can greatly improve magic qualifications are extremely valuable, such as the fruit of the World Tree, the sap of the Tree of Life, and the magic essence found from the super-large magic crystal mine.

There are only three super-large magic crystal mines found so far, and more than a dozen magic essences can be mined every year, and these magic essences basically fall into the hands of the Divine Radiance Empire, the Orc Royal Court, and the great nobles of the Magic Kingdom of Makholm.

Even the Grant royal family did not have a chance to meddle.

The World Tree is located in the depths of the earth's core, and it has long been blocked by the Seven Divine Kingdoms, and the Seven Gods are all eyeing the World Tree, and many battles have broken out between the Divine Kingdoms, how could the fruit of the World Tree fall into the hands of ordinary people?

Even the royal family of the Divine Radiance Empire, which has a close relationship with the God of Radiance, would find it difficult to obtain a treasure like the World Tree Fruit.

The Tree of Life is a sacred relic of the Elves, and it is not allowed to be touched by outsiders at all, unless you can destroy an Elven tribe that has mastered the Tree of Life. Even a little bit of eaux-de-vie would cost a lot of money, not to mention the sap of the tree of life?

Although the magic essence is relatively rare, it can continue to be produced every year. However, those who can use these treasures to improve their qualifications add up to no more than twenty.

The reincarnation technique is not enough, and it is simply not possible to turn a treasure of this level.

In addition to the top-notch Heavenly Treasures, there is another way to greatly improve the qualifications, which is to be illuminated by the Holy Light and favored by the gods.

The seven gods have been asleep for many years, and now they easily do not answer the prayers of believers.

In the past 3,000 years, there have been very few gods, and for hundreds of years, Richard is probably the only one who has been favored by the goddess of the dawn.

Richard was illuminated by the Dawn Holy Light back then, and his mental power increased by six points, and the effect was better than that of the legendary level Styx Elixir.

Because the Styx potion increases the magic power, some magicians have outstanding talents, and the same spiritual power is even higher in the transformation of magic power, such as Sophia's increased magic power by sixty points, but in fact, the spiritual power is only increased by five points.

In addition to the above methods, the next class is a variety of precious potions, and some special magic plants.

The legendary-level Styx Elixir is already a very precious treasure. In the Magic Kingdom of Makholm, it is already considered the foundation of a large magical organization, and it will only be used on the most descendant and talented mages.

Albert Sacco, the Speaker of the Magic Council, may not be able to provide all his children and grandchildren with this level of medicine, after all, the Sacco family has more than a hundred clansmen, and there are too many descendants, and precious resources can only be reserved for the most gifted.

The Duke of the Divine Radiance Empire would also have a hard time getting his hands on a potion of this level.

After all, in the Dawn Plane, it is rare to find Legendary-level undead creatures.

The area where the Kingdom of Grant is located is considered to be the focus of the war between the ancient wizards and the undead, and the undead army has only been found twice in the last thirty years.

The last battle to block the plane passage of the Necronomicon Realm killed three legendary level undead, but only two legendary soul crystals were captured, and all of them fell into the hands of the Dawn Church, after all, in that battle, the priest of the Dawn Church played the greatest role, and even the legendary second-order priest Marvila was exhausted.

As for the ordinary soul crystals, because they did not control the battlefield, they did not pick up much, and most of them still fell into the hands of the Grant royal family.

Although Richard participated in the battle back then, after all, he was still a small person, and the important spoils of war could not be shared by him at all.

In addition to being able to refine potions, soul crystals can also be used as special alchemy materials to release soul-type spells. It's just that doing so is tantamount to destroying the heavens.

In addition, the soul crystal can also be used to create artificial intelligence, if the soul crystal is used on a powerful golem, it can artificially create a legendary-level helper. If used on top of the Mage Tower, it can also create a clever tower spirit that can be used as a helper in magic research.

Mage towers built by legendary wizards in ancient times are often protected by legendary golems and have tower spirit helpers.

In addition, this special crystal can be used for magical research. It is also very beneficial for understanding the origin of the world.

In the era of ancient wizards, dark wizards had the means to extract soul power and refine soul crystals. The Dark Wizard was reckless and inflicted a very heavy killing on the sapient beings.

Without the protection of the wizarding organization, there is basically no population in the wilderness.

This battle has captured the legendary soul crystal, and the refining of the Styx potion is not too difficult, if the Styx potion is really successfully refined after the war, it will be of great help to Sophia, Wendy and other talented magicians.

Using one of these potions, the spiritual power can be increased by five or six points, and the spiritual power before the Nine Rings exceeded forty points, which is the basis for the magician to break through the legend.

It's just that other magicians don't have attribute panels, so they can't figure out their mental power, so they can only roughly calculate based on their magic power.

An ordinary magician with inferior talent and no adventures, after advancing to the Nine Rings, his spiritual power is roughly around thirty-three points.

Even if it is a treasure that is favored by the gods, or has obtained improved qualifications by chance, it is difficult to increase its spiritual power to more than forty points, and there is basically no chance to break through the legend. Unless this magician is a genius who studies magic, creates a new path of magic, invents a new spell template, and is favored by the will of the world, his spiritual power can increase by a few points.

However, 99% of the magicians in this world have a very shallow understanding of the nature of magic, and they are all tool mages who have been promoted step by step, and there are very few who can engage in magic research and make certain results.

Even a lucky person like Richard, who has experience in his previous life, relies on magical research to improve his spiritual power at only eleven points.

However, Richard's contribution to the study of magic is almost unprecedented, and it is rare to have anyone in the future, and if all the magical knowledge of the Harland Mage Guild is made public, Richard's fame will immediately surpass that of Albert Sacco. This great magician, who also opened up new fields, only had nine points of spiritual power that he had improved by relying on magical research.

Sophia, Wendy, and others also made some outstanding contributions to the study of magic with the help of Richard's light, but the increased spiritual power was only three or four points.

Most magicians learn a fragmented and chaotic knowledge of magic, not only do they have no talent, but it is also difficult to have the conditions to study magic. For the vast majority of mages, relying on this path to improve their spiritual power and promote to legend has basically been cut off.

Mages with medium talent will have a mental power between thirty-four and thirty-six points after advancing to the Nine Rings, and they also need to use treasures that enhance their spiritual power to have a chance to break through the legendary bottleneck.

Only the most talented magicians, after advancing to the Nine Rings, their spiritual power is often above thirty-seven points, and they have a chance to break through the legend by using some potions that increase their spiritual power.

Even if it is a simple tool man mage, as long as he has good talent, he may break through the legendary realm.

In tonight's battle, more than 5,000 undead creatures were killed, and many soul crystals of different levels were actually dropped, but some of them were destroyed by the Starlight Bomb and the other was left on the battlefield.

Because the battle was still going on, and the time was urgent, Richard and the others had no time to pick it up, so they could only hope that it was time to clean up the battlefield.

After receiving the Legendary Soul Crystal, Richard saw that the gray mist was still surging up, and he knew in his heart: "The Legendary Bone Dragon is not the most powerful enemy in the gray mist, and there is a pair of invisible hands in the dark. This enemy hidden in the shadows is the one behind the control of the gray fog. ”

Richard turned his head and looked at the lake in the dark night, and found that Levin and the others had retreated a kilometer away.

Before they knew it, Richard had been delaying for more than ten minutes.

Realizing that the blocking mission had been completed, Richard immediately beckoned everyone to withdraw along the lake.

Killed the legendary bone dragon, the undead army striker arrow is blunt, with Sutton and Sylph as the core, it can easily kill a large number of undead creatures that catch up, and take on the task of blocking.

After walking on the ice for about an hour, we walked seven or eight kilometers on the ice road, and finally came to the eastern part of the salt lake.

At this time, long dragons of flames could already be seen in the east, and it turned out that reinforcements were rushing to the eastern part of the Salt Lake region with torches.

With these 5,000 reinforcements, Richard finally let go of his worries.

The most troublesome reason why the undead in the gray mist are powerful is the huge number of people.

If there is no numerical advantage, even if they face legendary undead creatures, Richard and the others are sure to defeat their opponents. But in the face of a steady stream of tens of thousands of undead creatures, the small army could not defeat the opponent at all, so they could only choose to withdraw.

As soon as the two armies converged, Richard ordered trees to be cut down and bonfires to be lit.

The reinforcements who came from Lott and Sam Castle had already walked for four hours in the middle of the night, and they were already sleepy and very uncomfortable with the cold, while the undead did not need to eat or drink, and were not afraid of the cold, which was far inferior to the undead creatures.

Hundreds of bonfires were soon lit, and while the soldiers had rested for a moment, roasted the fire, and drank water, the army of the undead had swooped down from the eastern shore of the salt lake.

Fighting such a tireless monster is very uncomfortable for an army.

Richard's eyes swept away, and he found that some soldiers showed fear on their faces, so he immediately stood up and shouted loudly: "Don't be afraid, everyone, these skeleton frames are very weak in combat, and they can't penetrate everyone's shields and armor at all.

With your courage, we can crush these pesky undead creatures. As your lord, I am willing to make an oath that I will not retreat as long as you do not retreat.

Besides, we have no way back, and behind us are the two castles of Lott and Sam, and in the castles are our wives, children, parents, and friends. In order to protect our loved ones, it is now impossible to take a step back. The only option is to defeat the undead and defeat your opponents! ”

After a brief mobilization, with the Seventh Brigade as the core, more than 5,000 soldiers formed a circle formation and slammed into the army of the undead.

The archers inside the circle took the lead in attacking, the sharpshooters shot burst arrows one after another, and ordinary archers also shot rockets, and in an instant, thousands of rockets shot into the gray mist.

The Burst Arrow is very effective against undead creatures, and each arrow can basically kill a powerful opponent. However, the lethality of ordinary rockets against undead creatures is somewhat insufficient.

Seeing this, Richard immediately ordered the archers to stop shooting arrows and attack the undead creatures with guns and shields.

The soldiers in Haaland's territory are all comprehensive arms, and every soldier must be equipped with a strong bow and crossbow, and the soldiers who are not strong enough to pull the strong bow cannot enter the main army at all, and can only catch thieves in the city defense army and the security army, maintain law and order, and undertake the second-line garrison task.

A soldier with great strength and good archery skills is born to be an all-round attacker, even if he can't draw a bow and shoot arrows, he also has an advantage in close combat and is a good hand.

Of course, the most powerful soldiers under Haaland were not archers, but grenadiers. Grenadier selects the most powerful players, often with big height, big shoulders and round waists.

The vast majority of grenadiers are close to two meters tall and have a strength of around six points, which is almost comparable to the strength of a first-order professional.

Haaland led nearly 50,000 soldiers, and the grenadiers he could select were only about 3,000, and this kind of naturally strong soldier was rarer than the professionals in the army.

When the archers stopped shooting, they saw the undead creatures in range, and the grenadiers with big shoulders and round waists immediately attacked.

The grenadiers threw alchemy bombs quickly, and in an instant puffs of smoke appeared in the army of the undead, dispelling the gray mist.

The alchemy bomb has a very good effect on the undead, hundreds of alchemy bombs are thrown in one round, and at least thousands of undead creatures are emptied in an instant.

Seeing that the damage was good, the grenadiers went into battle even more frantically.

For this battle, the defenders of the Lothar Basin almost emptied the alchemy bomb treasury, and the alchemy bombs in reserve were very abundant.

After more than ten years of accumulation, Haaland's reserve of alchemy bombs has been increased to 60,000, which is enough to fight several fierce battles.

After five consecutive rounds of throwing, the grenadiers had consumed two thousand alchemy bombs, and the army of the undead had been reduced by about four thousand.

But the number of undead creatures seemed to be endless, surrounding the circle.

Suddenly, the sound of slashing was deafening, and the soldiers fought with each other with their spears and swords, fighting countless skeletons and zombies.

In just half an hour, with the circle as the center, the outside was already piled with five-foot-thick white bones.

In the war that began tonight, Richard and Haaland led the soldiers, and more than 20,000 undead creatures have been eliminated.

Although there are many undead creatures, they cannot afford such a heavy loss.

After continuous battles until now, the scale of the Grey Mist has finally stopped expanding, and now each undead killed weakens the Grey Mist.

Seeing that the grenadiers were about to throw alchemy bombs again, they suddenly heard "Da! Da! Da!" At the sound of the sound, hundreds of necromantic knights riding white bone horses rushed out of the gray mist.

The power of death was attached to the bone spear, hovering around the necromantic knight for a long time. I saw that the necromantic knight stretched out his hand and wiped it on the white bone spear, and the fire of the dead suddenly ignited on the white bone spear.

The Necro Knight raised his bone spear and launched a fierce attack from the front of the circle. These necromantic knights have a professional level of about four or five levels.

More than a hundred Necromantic Knights launched a surprise attack, and the lethality and destructive power were already very good.
