"Mr. Francis, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Richard greeted Francis, and then entered the bell tower with the covenant party.

In the bell tower of the Cathedral of Dawn, an old woman stood in front of the window, looking through the window at the crowd in the distance.

Seeing that the covenant party and Richard had entered the bell tower, the old woman turned her head and swept her eyes over Richard with a look of surprise in her eyes.

Apparently Richard surprised her.

The old woman is none other than Catherine, the demigod of the Church of Dawn, who is herself a blood relative of the goddess of Dawn and a legendary fourth-order mage who has been promoted to demigodship. When she lit the divine fire, she was close to two hundred years old, so her appearance was very old. But her flesh. After years of nourishment by divine power, he is far stronger than a legendary warrior.

After igniting the divine fire and refining the divine power, Catherine's spiritual power exceeded two hundred points, and there was already a clear difference between her and the legendary profession in essence.

A demigod-like transcendent is already a spiritual energy body with eternal life. And the physical body they left behind has also been transformed by divine power, and it is also extremely strong.

This type of lifeform has already mastered a part of the power of the source sea, and the spell released has touched the core of the magic energy particles.

With the same amount of spiritual power, the magic power that demigods and gods can transform is equivalent to ten times that of ordinary professionals, and Catherine's magic power is more than 20,000 points, which is equivalent to twelve times the level of Richard.

Mental power and magic are Richard's strengths. He was extremely lucky, not only drank the water of life, increased his spiritual power by five points, but also obtained the divine favor of the goddess of the dawn, his spiritual power increased by another six points, and he won the soul battle with the legendary lich, and his spiritual power increased by four points, and by external chances alone, Richard's spiritual power was fifteen points more than that of ordinary mages.

Under normal circumstances, even if it is a legendary mage, at most if he takes a legendary potion that increases his mental power, plus some other chances, the external increase in spiritual power is only seven or eight points at most, which is less than half of Richard's.

In addition to external chances, Richard has also made great contributions to the development of the magical civilization of the Dawn Plane because of his special experience, and has been favored by the World Tree, and his spiritual power has increased by fourteen points under the feedback of the source sea.

And the battle mage, even if promoted to a legend, is just a powerful spell-casting tool, and it is impossible to contribute much to the magical civilization, and of course it cannot be favored by the World Tree and draw power from the source sea.

For example, a legendary mage like Yelena, although she is also a legendary first-order, has a difference of twenty-three points in spiritual power compared to Richard. Even the legendary second-order Senna, because of other special opportunities in the princess's mausoleum, has made a certain contribution to the magic civilization, and his spiritual power is only sixty-nine points, which is seven points different from Richard's spiritual power.

In terms of mental power alone, Richard is no weaker than the legendary third order.

Even with Richard's spiritual strength and magic thickness, he is still very far from the demigod Catherine.

Not only is the demigod super thick with mana, but the magic destructive power released by the same magic power is far beyond that of the legendary mage, roughly equivalent to four times that of the legendary mage. Compared to a normal mage, magic is eight times more lethal.

Even if a demigod consumes ten points of magic power and releases a one-ring magic missile, the damage caused is stronger than the six-ring magic flame cage released by an ordinary mage.

And a demigod can release two thousand such magics, and two thousand six-ring magic spells are enough to defeat a hundred thousand regular legions.

Moreover, the demigod is a spiritual energy body, and even if the physical body that descends is damaged, it will not cause serious trouble. A demigod-level transcendent, his physical resistance is almost full, and his magic resistance is also extremely strong. Even if a dozen legendary mages join forces, it will be difficult to fight the demigods.

Unless you can get the help of the artifact and use the power of the artifact, you can pose a threat to the life of the demigod.

With Catherine's strong mental strength, after seeing Richard, she also had a feeling of fright.

With just one glance at Richard, Catherine discovered that there were two powerful origin powers hidden in Richard's body. In particular, the power of the God of Killing, like a bone appendage, was hidden in the depths of Richard's spiritual power space, giving Catherine a ferocious feeling.

The God of Killing is a multi-dimensional deity of medium divine power, active more than 10,000 years ago.

This deity had been to the Dawn Plane, but was banished by the Rule Wizards, and even the avatars and demigod followers fell to the Dawn Plane.

Although the god of killing is unlucky, in the last few thousand years, he was first defeated by the god of fairness and justice, then attacked by the god of death, and finally killed by the god of assassination, the godhead has been shattered, the kingdom of God has been completely destroyed, and the killing believers have also been hunted down by the major churches for thousands of years, and the power of faith that can be provided is very pitiful. But this divine power is a medium-strength god after all, and the essence of divinity is far superior to Catherine, even if it is one order stronger than the goddess of Dawn.

Although the God of Killing is already a toothless tiger, even Catherine feels very troubled when encountering this situation.

The reason why Richard was not controlled by the influence of the God of Killing and occupied his consciousness at the moment of becoming a god was that in addition to the help provided by the Dawn Divine Power, the protection of another divine power was also very crucial.

Although Catherine is well-informed, she does not recognize the origin of this divine power, but in terms of the nature of the divine power, it is quite ancient, involving nature and science.

Gods who have nature and science as their priesthood are very rare, and only the gods of knowledge and truth that Catherine has heard of are closer.

Although the God of Knowledge and the God of Truth are both gods with weak divine power, they are very ancient and mysterious, and have survived for more than 50,000 years. You can't just look at the level of Godhead.

After all, the God of Death, who is also a weak god power, can easily handle the God of Killing with medium divine power.

Generally speaking, the ancient gods are not keen on preaching, and mainly rely on their own strength, and the competition with the gods of faith is not strong.

Because of the protection provided by the power of the Old Gods, the God of Killing could not affect Richard's consciousness.

Unless Richard frequently uses the power of killing to advance to the professional level, he is invaded and infiltrated by the will of the God of Killing, and his personality gradually changes, and he is close to the God of Killing in his thinking, and finally completes his replacement when he is a god.

Back then, the goddess of Dawn saw this, and spent her divine power to make Richard a god, using her divine power to help the ancient gods suppress the killing divinity, and then passed the word through Marvila to let Richard control the use of killing power, and it has been twenty-three years now.

For twenty-three years, Richard resisted the temptation to become stronger quickly, and even if the situation was difficult, he still relied on his own strength to advance to the professional ranks.

This kind of performance can be regarded as a great contribution to the Dawn Plane.

According to the characteristics of the faster the accumulation of killing power, if Richard did not use killing power in moderation, it would be very simple to be a legend for three years and a demigod for five years.

Twenty-three years is enough time to ascend to the throne, but in this way, the god of killing will be revived in Richard's body, and his soul will be replaced. And the Dawn Plane was also re-canonized because of the God of Killing, and it became devastated.

Richard relied on himself to rise to the top of the ranks, although he was slower, and in twenty-three years he was also promoted from the fourth ring to a legend. Relying on his own strength to promote step by step, not only has a solid foundation, but also suppresses the hidden danger of the God of Killing.

Seeing that the divinity of Dawn, the divinity of killing, and the divinity of the ancient gods had formed a balance, Catherine also envied Richard's good opportunity in her heart.

Richard's situation, when igniting the divine fire, is much easier than the normal Legendary Fourth Order, after all, the divine power in his body is already very strong, and he is also a king with high prestige, and it is not troublesome to establish a religion and condense beliefs.

It's just that when he ignites the divine fire, he still needs to go through a soul battle, and if he defeats the spiritual power of the god of killing, Richard probably doesn't need to go through the stage of demigod. To become a god, a transcendent person needs to go through five stages: igniting the divine fire, refining the divine power, condensing the divine personality, mastering the priesthood, and establishing the kingdom of the gods.

If he had won the battle against the Soul of the God of Killing, Richard would have easily survived the first four phases, except that it would take longer to establish the kingdom of God.

"Richard, the Divine Favorite, your situation is well maintained, continue to maintain it, don't rush to advance, try to make your soul condensed and strong-willed.

In the few days since I arrived, the situation in the church has been roughly understood.

Now we need to solve the problem of the princess's mausoleum first.

Although Princess Offaland is a powerful legendary fourth-order, her spiritual power is close to one hundred points, and she still has an artifact refined by a regular wizard in her hand, but it is still inferior to the soul of the undead lord. Despite the suppression of the formation to restrain the soul of the undead Lord, as well as the support of Senna and others, it is still a hidden danger to us.

It just so happens that I brought the Dawn Badge with me this time, and I can use the badge to solve this hidden danger. ”

Hearing Catherine's words, a smile suddenly appeared on Richard's face. The princess's mausoleum is located in the heart of Haaland's collar and is a big knot in Richard's heart.

Even if he and Sophia were promoted to legend one after another, they still couldn't solve this trouble.

The Dawn Badge Richard has seen it once, and it is by relying on the divine power in this badge that Richard has become the goddess of the Dawn Goddess.

Now because of the appearance of the Harland Leader, the goddess of the dawn has increased by more than 20 million believers, and the power of faith provided by these new believers has been given priority to replenishing the Dawn Badge, and it has only taken twenty-three years for the divine power of the Dawn Badge to be replenished.

According to the canon of the Church of Dawn, Richard knew that the goddess of Dawn possessed seven artifacts, which was already a considerable number. Many gods with medium divine power have no more than five artifacts in their hands.

The main reason why the goddess of Dawn has seven artifacts, far surpassing the two gods of the same godhead level as the king and the earth, is that she has fought many divine wars.

As the main force, the goddess has defeated the rule wizard, the undead king, and the dragon god, and captured many precious trophies. In addition, the goddess of Dawn herself is a very good alchemist and can make some loot into artifacts. Even the royal seal, the artifact of the god of kingship, was commissioned by the god of kingship to refine the goddess of dawn.

Among the seven gods, the goddess of dawn possessed the number of artifacts, second only to the two powerful gods of brilliance, fairness and justice.

Among the seven artifacts owned by the Goddess of Dawn, the first is the Holy Grail of Dawn. This artifact is the holy grail that the goddess of the dawn ignited the divine fire, and it is also the most powerful artifact in the hands of the goddess of the dawn, and now it is in the red moon plane, used to suppress the red moon god kingdom and seal the goddess of the red moon.

In second place is the Dawn Scepter, an artifact made from the heart of the World Tree, which can mobilize the power of the world's origin in the Dawn plane, and can be used to cause thunder, floods, tsunamis, and earthquakes. The three gods of Dawn, Kingship, and Earth all have similar artifacts with different powers, among which the goddess of Dawn has the most favor from the World Tree, and the Dawn Scepter is also the most powerful.

Next in third place is the Dawn Bell, which hangs from the top of the Dawn Cathedral to protect the goddess's body. At the same time, the Dawn Bell is also the general hub of the power of faith, which can send the power of faith from the Dawn plane into the Kingdom of God through the Dawn Bell. With the help of this artifact, the efficiency of the Goddess of Dawn's transformation of the power of faith can be increased by five or six percent.

In fourth place is the Dawn Sacred Codex, an artifact that has always been under the control of the Dawn Pope, and the Dawn Sacred Book seals the three thirteen-ring magic bestowed by the goddess.

The strength of spells in the world is closely related to the structure of the Origin Sea. According to the exploration of the predecessors, there are thirteen layers of the source sea, ordinary magicians, the spiritual power can reach up to nine layers, legendary magicians can usually contact ten layers, and occasionally create powerful magic, they can contact the eleventh layer of the source sea, and the best legendary mages have even come into contact with the twelve layers of the source sea, creating terrifying spells with a strength of up to twelve rings.

The starlight bomb that Richard had mastered was a kind of twelve-ring magic, which was already the pinnacle of legendary magic.

Only demigods and gods who have evolved into spiritual energy bodies after igniting the divine fire can release the thirteen rings of magic, and the magic strength of the thirteen rings of magic is enough to harm the gods.

The Covenant Fang's spiritual power is close to a hundred points of the Legendary Fourth Order, because it has an extremely high compatibility with the Dawn Sacred Scripture, and he already has enough spiritual power to release the Thirteen Ring Divine Technique, which is the fundamental reason why he can defeat some demigods.

The fifth-ranked artifact is the Dawn Sword, a magic weapon for the goddess to fight her enemies and possess extremely terrifying lethality. The Holy Sword is infused with powerful magical damage, which can greatly weaken the magic resistance of the gods.

Ranked sixth is the Dawn Divine Seal, this artifact is the seal used by the goddess to sign the divine contract, and it has the power of part of the priesthood of the Dawn Goddess, and is the core of the operation of the Dawn Goddess Divine Kingdom.

The last artifact is the Dawn Emblem, which has the function of expelling evil and purifying evil spirits, and is very restrained by demon lords and undead lords.

Generally, there are only no more than three artifacts of weak divine power, and they will not let the artifact go to the lower realm easily, so as not to lose it due to accidents.

Only a local tyrant like the Goddess of Dawn would give the artifact to the legendary priest to use. However, this time, the demigod Catherine is in charge of the overall situation, which can be said to be quite stable.
