Chapter 910 189: Sacrificing the Elemental Keystone (2)
After Lin Rui teleported to her side, he asked, "Is there no Divine Descent here?"
"Divine Spirit?" Audrey shouted in surprise, "Will there still be a Divine Descend?"
Lin Rui immediately understood. It seems that the importance of the Elemental Keystone is still not enough to drive the Divine Spirit completely red-eyed, disregarding life and death to come down.
On the World Tree side, it should be because of the Plane Crystal Core that has caused the mass entry of Divine Spirits.
It's also reasonable to think so; a world can have many Elemental Keystones, but there is only one Plane Crystal Core, so the Elemental Keystones are still relatively more ubiquitous.
So, Lin Rui directly said, "It's hard to become a Divine Spirit; one wouldn't risk everything for just a piece of Elemental Keystone. Would you disregard life and death for a Strategic Treasure?"
Audrey immediately shook her head, "Definitely not! I have so many Strategic Treasures."
That's indeed true, the Strategic Treasures she possesses are second only to Lin Rui, and they also bear strong Undead characteristics.
[Strategic Treasure: Cursed Armor: A curse is the prayer of the angry ones. Once released, it becomes an eternal nightmare, ruthlessly destroying all, even the mightiest cannot escape. In an Undead melee, it automatically imposes curse spells [Evil Curse Possession] and [Great Calamity] on the target, lasting until the battle ends.]
[Evil Curse Possession: Reduces enemy's maximum attack power to the value of the minimum attack power, minimum attack power decreased by 10%.]
[Great Calamity: Reduces enemy's Luck Value by 20% (affects Critical Strike Rate, Evasion Rate, etc.).]
[Strategic Treasure: Death Mask: Under the cover of the Death Mask, fear is your weapon. Staring into the eternal darkness hides endless despair and pain. Physical Attack Power +10%, Attack Speed +10%, every time in a frenzied attack or bite, 20% of the damage dealt to the opponent is converted to own Life Value.]
[Strategic Treasure: Book of the Dead: The Book of the Dead is considered the carrier of death and knowledge, possessing a portal and connection power to the Realm of the Dead. It can bring the holder the wisdom and experience of predecessors, granting strong Magic Power and Insight. In the pages, the wisdom of souls flows eternally. Commander's army Soul Value +5, Wisdom Value +10, daily can select 3 targets, increasing their current tier ascent experience value by 5%. When Undead Soldiers perish in battle, they will corpse explode impacting enemy troops within 5 meters, dealing Spiritual Damage equal to 15% of their own Life Value, and deducting 5% Spiritual Energy Value from enemy units based on damage value.]
These treasures are also the key to her army's ability to persevere for so long!
Lin Rui extended his hand and said, "Then the Divine Spirit likely won't, give me the Elemental Keystone."
"Oh, oh." Audrey immediately reached into the deep crevice on her chest, felt around for a while, and then placed Youu Wenrun's Elemental Keystone into Lin Rui's hand, "How about it, Father? Did I keep it well? No one can take it from me."
Lin Rui was speechless; this woman truly knows how to add drama to herself.
Lin Rui casually placed it into the Space Ring and handed it to a female knight beside him, saying, "Immediately use [Returning to the Ruins] to evacuate, deliver it to the Legendary Knight: Caesar Julius."
There are many Legendary Knights in the Golden Pansy Domain; all are already positioned at key locations ready for reception, with at least one squad of Soldiers at each position.
Lin Rui's incursion timing and the calculated marching time for Death's Wings matched closely, neither faster nor delayed.
Thus, all Knights have already activated [Deep Strike] along the routes laid out by Lin Rui.
As soon as the Elemental Keystone: Eye of Darkness is delivered to the hand, they will immediately trigger the [Returning to the Ruins] Trait, completing the relay in an instant, if the transfer goes smoothly, this Elemental Keystone can be sent back within a few minutes.
Of course, to avoid premonitions from the Divine Spirits, the Knights' paths are not a straight line, nor are they a pattern-detectable arc.
Lin Rui staggered the direction of the Knights; even if the Divine Spirits sense it, they cannot quickly deploy force to cut off the Elemental Keystone's return path within minutes.
But organizing so many Soldiers, like a gear mechanism, interlocked without any error, is not an easy task.
In this world, any theory, once it comes to practical implementation, can easily undergo significant changes, especially this interconnected deployment, one link having a slight error would directly collapse the rest.
Therefore, to ensure the Soldiers' stability, avoiding mishaps in the deployment area, even under attack or ambush, Lin Rui directly provided them with crucial Legendary-level equipment.
[Legendary Attack Trait (golden) Divine Force Field Shield: The Dawn Spear's Divine Force Field Shield is the resonance between the holder and the Divine Spirits. This shield, like the protection of heavenly deities, grants the holder endless courage and strength. Under the protection of this Divine Shield, darkness and evil have nowhere to hide. This spear's soul resonates with the holder, automatically generating a 3-second Divine Shield every 25 seconds, activated upon attack, absorbing Divine Damage from the enemy; shield absorption volume is 15% of the holder's Life Limit. During shield duration, restores 8% of own basic attack power as Life Value per second.]
[Strategic Trait: Domain of Hope: When the Dawn Spear activates the Domain of Hope, the seeds of light and hope rapidly grow in the dark. Those enveloped by despair and pain, under this beacon of hope, find a new direction forward. The Domain of Hope, just like a bright lighthouse, guides those lost in the darkness towards the shore of light and peace. When activated, the Dawn Spear releases a Divine Realm covering within 12000 meters. Allied units sheltered by the Divine Realm have pain and despair dispelled, Life recovery speed boosted by 50%, lasting for 120 seconds. At the same time, attacks deal an additional 20% base attack power as Divine Damage to enemies. (This effect can only be activated once per battle)]
Thus, even if there are other Explorers or forces, seeing a lone Legendary Soldier wearing the Golden Pansy Territory Emblem in the wild, initiating attacks, the Soldiers can endure for a period.
Such events, Lin Rui deems unavoidable, given the current reputation of Golden Pansy Domain, they're already being shouted for slaughter on Colonization Stars.
These forces with broken nations and families, as well as Explorers brimming with Chaos Attributes, upon seeing Soldiers from the Golden Pansy Domain standing by at one position.
It's inevitable they will howl and charge up, launching attacks on the Soldiers.
Though Golden Pansy Domain's Soldiers are strong, it's inevitable that two fists cannot fight four hands.
Thus, Lin Rui equipped them with powerful weapons and a large number of Mythical Artifact: World Tree Leaves.
Lin Rui has collected wealth over many years, acquiring thousands of World Tree Leaves from Grand Marshal Xinglu; finally, it's time to use them!
Because of this accumulation and foundation, Lin Rui dared to seize the Elemental Keystone.
And now is the time to verify the effectiveness of it all.
As Lin Rui handed the Elemental Keystone to the female knight, she immediately bowed in salute, disappearing with over ten Knights, and soon Knights of Golden Pansy across various locations swiftly activated the set effects.
Moments later, the system's notification sounded.
[Civilization Announcement: Plane War Side Quest Two: Yin and Yang's Puzzle, has been completed by Explorer: Lin Rui: Golden Pansy, ID: 83202300001. This world's Light Forces' power greatly reduced by 30%, all Natural Wonders and Miracle Buildings become invalid, exploring the ruins yields massive wealth. Light Forces' troop camps are invalidated, Light Troops cannot naturally generate.]
[Ding, you have become mortal enemies with all Light Forces in this world, relentless until death. Any Light Force seeing you will spare no expense to initiate attack.]
[Ding, Divine Revelation Task completed, gained 10000 Plane War Merit Points, 100000000 Plane War Reputation, Semi-Divine Artifact*1]
Lin Rui immediately clenched his fist in excitement, succeeded! Indeed, he has both luck and strength, everything went smoothly!
