At this time, in Richard's field of vision, countless trajectory lines continued to emanate from Han Erdong's body, and each trajectory line represented a possibility of counterattack or dodge. On the surface, Han Erdong seemed to be beaten by Richard and had no power to fight back, but in fact, he still had the strength to spare. The situation between the two sides is still evenly matched.

Richard took a deep breath, and a wave of heat emanated from Akmund's bloodline, and the magic power output instantly increased again, and the magic force had been driven to the extreme. After the blazing ability was activated, the trajectory lines scattered from Han Erdong's body suddenly decreased by half.

At this time, Richard's knife technique changed, and suddenly became extremely delicate, the priest's fighting technique and the knife technique had already been fused into one, and the elf long knife could give birth to thousands of changes between square inches, and the double dagger of Han Erdong was fiercely fighting!

Han Erdong's face was solemn, and his double daggers were flying, and he was already fighting with all his might!

Richard suddenly let out a clear roar, and the moonlight bloomed, and he and the two daggers were twisted together!

Richard stood still, stretched out his hand forward, and happened to catch the fallen artifact magic pen, then smiled at Han Erdong and said, "Don't forget, I'm a magician!"

Han Erdong's face was ugly, and he stared fiercely at the fate twins behind Richard. But now Richard just doesn't move this artifact staff, and it doesn't make a big difference. Magicians can cast spells empty-handed anyway, but Han Erdong has no weapons, could it be that the guest boxer? There were still two knives behind Richard that didn't move. Melee combat can't be beaten, and the results of escape are not much better. Richard's main job is the archmage, and the thief distances himself from an archmage, and he is definitely looking for death.

In the end, the thief had no choice but to say hatefully, "How can there be a magician like you!"

At this point, the test of cold winter has passed. Asiris actually knew that Han Erdong's original idea was that as long as Richard didn't lose too ugly, he would be honest and effective, after all, he was saved by Richard just now. Han Erdong just wanted to make sure that Richard was too incompetent. But I didn't expect that stealing would not succeed, and the result of the fight was also a failure.

Aceris knew that Richard still had a life, but he didn't use it. Otherwise, if the life extinguishing effect is attached, Richard will slash with all his strength, and Han Erdong will never dare to take it hard.

Richard smiled slightly, but ignored Han Erdong's awkwardness. He had been on the battlefield for five years, and he had long since learned a fighting style that was eclectic and only needed to win. There are no warriors or mages on the battlefield of the Peerless Realm, and there are only two most simple criteria: survive and kill the enemy. And Gordon and the Thirteen Knights spend most of their time expanding their territory, but they rarely have the time and opportunity to experience the Peerless Battlefield.

Entering the command hall of the castle, Aceris called up the magic map and began to explain the shape of the entire Liujin Valley. The Valley of Flowing Gold is not an entire continent, but a strange plane made up of countless fragments of land. Some of these land fragments are connected together, some are separated from each other, and some of them fly around along a specific trajectory. Such a land block can only be climbed when it is approached.

The dimensional portal is located on one of the land blocks, which is estimated to be around hundreds of thousands of square kilometers. But the range shown on the magic map is only a part of this landmass. Beyond the edge of the landmass, there is a void, and once you fall into it, you will drift away and not know where you will fall.

According to Asiris's speculation, there should have been an entire continent in the Liujin Valley, but I don't know what kind of disaster happened, and the entire continent was shattered, so it finally became like this. Perhaps due to the influence of strong magical power, the monsters in the Golden Valley are very powerful. Giants like just now, the number of individuals was close to the Heavenly Rank Sanctuary, but they were not the most ferocious enemies in the vicinity.

Richard, however, was more concerned about something else, asking, "What are the stars we see, and can we go up there?"

Aceris shook his head and said, "The void here is extremely dangerous, and there is no place to draw on it. It's very dangerous to cross over to another landmass, let alone to a distant star?"

Richard nodded, but for some reason, those huge stars in the void lingered in his heart, and he never forgot them.

The magic at the bottom of the rift where the magic crystal raw ore is produced is too strong, and it is difficult for warriors below level fourteen to survive in this environment, and if they stay for a long time, they will cause damage to their bodies. Moreover, due to the extremely unstable environment of the plane, the cost of stabilizing the channel of the plane is twice as high as that of other planes. At present, the cost of one-way transportation of one person in Liujin Valley still amounts to 10,000 gold coins. These soldiers in front of him were sent in at one time at a great cost by Gordon. Once they enter

It's not easy to get out.

In the end, the plane's speed of time, which is three times that of Norland, is considered decent, nothing outstanding, and nothing bad.

The potential of the Liujin Valley is huge, but if you want to develop it, you need to invest a lot of money. The first is the huge cost of strengthening the plane channel, and Richard estimates that it will take at least the equivalent of a top-level sacrifice to make it possible to stabilize the plane channel to the level of three thousand gold coins to transmit one person. At the very least, this is required to teleport enough warriors and miners into the Golden Valley. Mining is the second difficulty, level fourteen is an elite knight level, even in Norland can become a knight, this is the threshold of nobles. Therefore, it is not easy to find enough high-level miners. If the miners are not strong enough, they need to be protected by high-level magical defense equipment. The price of such equipment is often 20,000 or 30,000 sets, and 1,000 miners need millions of inputs.

At that time, Gordon was stuck in investment, and he was never able to develop the Liujin Valley. It wasn't until later that enough capital was slowly amassed. However, Gordon's original plan was to concentrate most of the thirteen knights and bring a small number of high-level constructed knights to sweep the Flowing Gold Valley, which was completely different from Richard's legion sweeping route of first strengthening the plane passage, and then focusing on the constructed knights, assisted by a large number of elite knights. Gordon's approach is limited in input, limited in effect, and has to be swept again every once in a while. Richard, on the other hand, is the way to invest heavily and have a permanent effect. The two methods have different emphasis, one is to save input, the other is to save time, and it is difficult to say the advantages and disadvantages. And Richard didn't have the Thirteen Knights, and Gordon didn't have as much money as Richard.

Knowing the basics of the plane, Richard stayed for a few more days to survey the situation around the base in detail, and at the same time he would release two prayers a day, once to heal the cold winter, and the other to gather the wounded warriors, and then cast a range of healing to speed up the recovery of the wounded warriors. Although Richard was able to mobilize the natural and vital breath around him to enhance the effect of prayer, there were still more than a dozen warriors who were so injured that they were left with disabilities and were no longer fit to continue fighting. Richard found that there were still fifty or sixty fighters like this in the base. They all chose to do what they could in the base, such as polishing and maintaining weapons, repairing houses, cooking and cooking, etc., but none of them offered to return to Norland.

Seeing these people, Richard's heart suddenly soured. He knew very well why these warriors didn't return to Norland, preferring to die in an alien plane. That's because the cost of plane teleportation is too expensive, and more than 50 disabled veterans are more than 500,000 teleportation fees. For Gordon, that's a lot of money. These veterans preferred to stay in the Valley of Flowing Gold because the teleportation fees saved could be used to pay for the bereavement of their comrades who died in battle.

After staying in the Golden Valley until the fourth day, it was time for Richard to return to Norland. Before leaving, Richard gathered all the fighters, as well as the civilians at the base, and announced that all disabled veterans could return to Norland, and that Richard would pay for the full teleportation for them. And they will be placed in the family domain, and each veteran can also receive an additional 10,000 settlement fees. In this era, the pension of an ordinary soldier was no more than a hundred gold coins. Richard gave the standard of bereavement for a quasi-constructed knight, and this treatment, even if you look at the entire Holy Alliance, is top-notch.

More than fifty veterans could barely believe their ears, and they looked at Richard in amazement, until Richard repeated it again to make sure they had heard correctly. To Richard's surprise, no one cheered, the veterans' eyes were only a little moist, and the soldiers looked at Richard in silence, but if you looked closely, you could see that their bodies were trembling slightly.

Han Erdong muttered, "This is more than a million! Can you pay it?"

Asiris said quietly, "Times are different now. Master Richard was rich. ”

Han Erdong grinned and said a little stupidly: "But it shouldn't be used like this! We are still very short of equipment and people! If this money is used for ......"

The thief said nothing, and Aceris sighed and said no more. He understood Han Erdong's thoughts very well, and the thief didn't think that the veterans didn't deserve this treatment. But they came from the Gordon era, and they were all used to it. Such a large benefit for Richard is the military investment of the entire Golden Valley for three years in the past. If this money is used for dimensional defense, then many fewer people will die.

Richard glanced at Han Erdong and smiled, "Don't worry, there will be equipment and people." ”

Han Erdong muttered a few times, it was impossible for him not to worry. He hadn't fought with Richard a few times like Asiris, so he didn't have an intuitive impression of Richard's current resources. The thief who was still alive in the Gordon era, it is difficult to imagine what an investment in tens of millions was like.
