From pioneer lord to king

In the carriage, Kuleqi was lying quietly, his breathing was very weak, and his pulse could hardly be felt. If it wasn't for the strong physique of the knight, he would have gone to see the God of Tei long ago with such an injury.

After Ryan made sure that no one was watching him, he quickly forced out more than a dozen drops of the source liquid onto the wounds on Kuleqi's chest and arms, and took out the alchemy potion he carried with him.

No one knows what the final result will be. It can only depend on Kuleqi's personal will to survive.

From Ryan's point of view, he hopes that Kuleqi can persevere, not only because of his outstanding personal strength, but also because he is also the chief of a large tribe.

Although his tribe was shattered under the attack of the slave catchers, there must still be many surviving people hiding in the Three Caves of the Rabbit.

If Ryan can subdue Kuleqi, it will be a huge boost to Ryan's plan to subdue the mountain people. A big tribal chief will show his own experience, no matter what, it will be more effective than Cavin and others who entered the mountain with a slave team. ?

The wheels rolled forward and headed towards the station, but Ryan didn't know that he was being watched by someone...

After getting out of the car, Ryan handed Kuleqi, who was still unconscious, to the health workers accompanying the team. They were all trained by Dania herself. Taking care of a wounded person is completely trivial.

What's interesting is that the mountain boy Adam seems to have a good eye for Kuleqi, and he volunteered to take care of him. He called him that mountain people know mountain people better.

This is not a bad thing for Ryan, so let him go, maybe there will be unexpected gains?
"Calvin, lead the soldiers to do a good job of security. In the next time, without my permission, no one is allowed to come within 20 meters of my room, and anyone who violates it will be killed without mercy."

"Of order." Calvin promised abruptly, he knew that it should have something to do with that piece of Black Glory Gold.

After giving the order, Ryan locked himself in the room, and in the middle of the room, there was the huge black gold nugget.

With Ryan's perception, even at such a close distance, he still didn't feel any peculiarities inside this piece of black gold. If it weren't for the obvious longing emotion of the ring on his finger, Ryan would really doubt whether he was Dan. Nila was wronged.

"Then let me see what you're hiding."

Ryan pulled out the rune saber at his waist. His saber was specially made. All the [lightness runes] were removed, and the two characteristics of [sharpness] and [high temperature] were retained.

With the terrifying temperature generated by [High Temperature Rune], there is basically no pressure to cut Hei Yaojin.

When the switch was turned on, the sword part of the saber instantly turned crimson red, and the terrifying temperature distorted the air.

Since he wasn't sure where this thing was, Ryan didn't dare to strike too hard at once, so he could only peel Hei Yaojin layer by layer like an onion.

Ryan's control has reached a very fine level, and the volume of Heiyaojin is rapidly decreasing. Even so, this process still lasted until the next morning before seeing a glimmer of light?
At this time, the room was already in a mess, the melted Heiyaojin had cooled and solidified again, and the volume of Heiyaojin on the ground had shrunk by nearly half.

This process has exhausted the energy of more than a dozen magic crystals, and the sword is overloaded, so now it has to take a break every time it is used.

Replaced with a new magic crystal, and after a short rest, Ryan swung his knife again at the uneven cut surface. Hei Yaojin melted like butter under the high temperature and flowed to the ground.

This knife seemed to pierce the layer of window paper, and the center of Heiyaojin reflected a faint fluorescence, which Heiyaojin did not have such characteristics. Obviously, Ryan had already come into contact with that "treasure".

Ryan was overjoyed, his physical fatigue disappeared without a trace at this moment, and he quickly accelerated the speed of his hands.

As Hei Yaojin was peeled off layer by layer by Ryan, he was finally able to see the existence of this baby, and accurately determined the size, and began to peel off more finely.

Busy until dusk, a thumb-thick diamond-shaped glowing crystal appeared in Ryan's hand. Its surface was very smooth and textured, and it looked like a green diamond-shaped crystal.

"What is this, crystal?" Ryan checked over and over in his hand, but did not find much difference from ordinary crystals.

But the ring on his finger clearly told him that this was what it longed for, and this feeling was stronger than ever.

"No matter what it is, just try it!" Ryan gritted his teeth and tried to bring the crystal closer to the [Soul Devouring Ring].

The moment the two came into contact, the light emitted by the crystal seemed to be drawn by something in the ring, and slowly rushed into the ring.

Ryan could feel that the longing turned into greed and joy at this time. It was hard to imagine that such a highly humane emotion was expressed by a ring, which was crazy.

The speed of absorption is getting faster and faster, and the color of the crystal in Ryan's hand is getting lighter at a speed visible to the naked eye, and gradually becomes fully transparent.

This energy is very magical and special, and Ryan's spiritual power cannot track and capture its specific orientation at all, which means that this is not any kind of energy in Ryan's cognition.

Dou Qi, magic power, spiritual power...all are not.

After absorbing the energy in the crystal, the ring returned to calm again, but Ryan keenly felt the breath of life, which was weak but tenacious, and continued to grow.

"Is that the black cocoon? Is it really a living creature?" Although Ryan had already prepared himself, there was still an emotion called "absurdity" spreading in his heart.

A ring, or a ring that absorbs souls, actually has real life in it, which is too unbelievable. Could it be that a spirit was born?
Suddenly, he felt a little more uneasy. No one knew whether he was doing the right thing, so he could only resign himself to fate.

Waiting is a long process. Before everything is settled, he dare not rush to infiltrate his spiritual power like before, so as to avoid the situation of taking the house.

The vitality became stronger and stronger, so strong that he almost felt the beating of the opponent's heart.

Inside the ring, in the huge light cluster that swelled more than ten times, the originally tiny black cocoon also swelled several times at this moment.

The heartbeat sound of "dong dong dong" is extraordinarily weird in this space.

Finally, the expansion reached a critical point, and the black cocoon suddenly and silently opened a small opening, and a beetle-like jointed foot protruded from it.

The small mouth became bigger and bigger, and the protruding legs changed from one to six, and then the entire black cocoon was torn into two halves, and the creatures inside finally broke out of the cocoon.

Its body is black, and its appearance is very similar to that of a cicada. It has long mouthparts and a pair of transparent membranous wings. It seems a little unaccustomed to it when it just broke out of the cocoon. A pair of black jewel-like eyes are looking around.

After a while, it seemed to adapt to the surrounding environment. It flapped its wings and came to the side of half of the cocoon, hugged it with its feet, and began to nibble at it with its mouthparts. Soon, the cocoon several times its size was covered by it. After it was eaten up, its volume also increased several times.

It quickly came to the other half and continued to eat away. After a while, the black cocoon disappeared and was replaced by a "black cicada" that had grown ten times larger.

The black cicada seemed to be still a little bit unsatisfied, rubbing its mouthparts with its forefoot like a fly, and began to absorb the spiritual power around it.

The light cluster it was in was formed by the soul power absorbed by the ring all along. For this black cicada, it was simply an unlimited buffet.

After a hearty "eating" meal, the light ball was completely small before stopping in satisfaction.

Afterwards, it vibrated its wings leisurely and flew out of the ball of light after eating and drinking...

"buzz"

The ring on his finger shimmered suddenly, and then under Ryan's surprised and vigilant eyes, a black cicada the size of a thumb appeared in front of him.

Ryan stared at it, and it was also observing Ryan.

After a while, a slightly immature voice suddenly sounded in Ryan's mind: "You woke me up?"

"You... Are you the creature born in the black cocoon?" Ryan asked hesitantly. He was no stranger to conversations at the soul level, after all, Barton and him could do it.

In contrast, it was the creature in the ring that shocked him even more.

"You can think so. It seems that you are my new master. I didn't expect you to be willing to use the life crystal to wake me up in advance. Is the matter so serious?"

The intelligence level of the black cicada is obviously not lower than that of normal humans, and the language logic is also very clear, but what it said made Ryan a little confused.

"Master? Life crystal? You, can you explain in more detail, for example, let me introduce myself first."

"Huh? You don't know? Well, well, you are really the worst master I have ever taken care of." Heichan complained mercilessly.

Ryan: "..."

I was actually despised by a bug, my family members don't know!

"Well, I am the Queen Mother of the Soul-Eating Insect Clan. I must be older than your grandfather's grandfather. I can absorb soul power to lay eggs and produce a huge army of Soul-Eating Insects. They can quietly The souls of devouring creatures, as long as the number is enough, the dragon is also a small bug in front of me.

Although I'm awesome, don't get too excited, I usually only do small-scale production and maintain a certain amount.

I will fall into a deep sleep again after fully producing it, that is to say, you have to take it easy, or your master experience card will expire, because your bones may turn into ashes when I fall into a deep sleep once. "

The black cicada, who claims to be the Queen of Soul-Eating Insects, chattered a lot, and said it very clearly, but its vulgar tone made Ryan want to slap it to death several times.

A worm, why is it so cheap to talk!
"Why are you in the ring, and what is the life crystal?" Ryan said with great pressure and slapped it to death.

"You don't use your brain when you talk. Where can I be when I'm not at home? Do you understand the nest? It's the worst class I've ever led and didn't run away."

As soon as Heichan opened his mouth, Ryan's blood pressure soared again, and it took him a long time to build his mind before he calmed down a little.

The instigator who caused all this didn't realize that it was jumping repeatedly on the verge of being shot to death, flapping its wings and staying in front of Ryan's eyes:

"You don't know the life crystal? How on earth did you become my master? By being cute?
Life crystal refers to a special crystal containing the law of life, which is very precious.Of course, you can't understand it with your IQ. "The Queen of Soul Eater's voice was full of disdain.

Ryan only felt that the blood was rushing straight to the top of the sky. This is no longer contempt, but Chi Guoguo's contempt. He was despised by a bug!

Unable to suppress that irritable heart any longer, Ryan pinched it, put the saber in his hand in front of it, and said murderously: "Speak well to me, or I promise I won't give you good fruit!"

"Uh... calm down, you calm down." Looking at the gleaming knife edge, the Soul Eater finally gave in. Although it didn't think Ryan could kill it, it hurt, and it was most afraid of pain.

Ryan gave it a warning look and said: "Organize the language for me, and then explain the life crystal."

"Let's put it this way, do you know about artifacts? This is one of the main materials for creating healing artifacts. I remember that the scepter in the hands of an old man in the Holy See of Holy Light is made of life crystals as the main material."

The soul-eating insect language is not surprising, and although it did not commit a crime this time, the explosiveness of the information in it almost made Ryan almost deaf on the spot.

The old man of the Holy See should be talking about the Pope, right?Could it be that the scepter in his hand is the Holy Light Holy See's guardian artifact [Holy Staff]?
That is the supreme artifact that symbolizes the Pope's rule. It is enough to rank in the top three among the existing artifacts. It is actually made of life crystals, and I used up such a precious crystal in order to wake up such a ramming bug...

Ryan staggered, feeling his head buzzing. He seemed to see an artifact leaving him, and his heart and liver were bleeding.

"Spit it out, you spit it out for me!" Ryan's eyes were red, and he frantically flicked the soul-eating worm in his hand, like a gambler who lost his eyes.

The soul-eating worm was thrown into stares by him, and he said confidently: "It's all digested, even if you eat me now, it's useless."

"You!" Ryan was anxious, but there was nothing he could do with it. After all, as it said, things had already happened, and it was useless to say anything now. We couldn't really kill it. It was an artifact in exchange for it!

"From now on, you will be called Xiao Hei. I hope you can show your value, otherwise I really want to try what you are like!" Ryan threatened viciously.

"Stupid master, you don't really think that you can create a magical weapon with a life crystal, you are so stupid." Xiao Hei secretly complained in his heart. Of course, he didn't dare to say it directly, for fear of irritating Ryan again. , when the time comes, I really treat it as a cicada monkey, and it won't be good if it explodes.

Throwing Xiao Hei back into the ring casually, Ryan, who had been working hard in the room for two days and two nights, finally came out...
