"It seems that I didn't guess wrong, it is really the heart of the ancient tree." Ryan sighed and said, "It seems to be very difficult to appear, right?"

"No more!" Allendo's expression was obviously agitated. He said to Ryan: "Do you know how many years it will take for our druid tribe to have a great druid? You know the curse of life? Is the price to be paid by Oasis?"

"Sunrise City?" Ryan asked.

"Yes, in that battle, the Druid tribe lost three arch druids. Even so, it only formed a huge tree of life in the end."

Hearing a few words from Allen, Ryan couldn't help but be moved: "It's really hard to come by! I can only recognize it, but I don't know the specific origin of it is so painful!"

"Maybe I can find out that it was the result of the self-sacrifice of those archdruids, but what do you plan to do with it now?" Allendor quickly adjusted his gaffe, after all, there is full of unknowns everywhere. , He must remain calm at any time to deal with all kinds of emergencies.

"Since this is the relic of the druid elders, it should be exchanged for the druid tribe." Ryan did not hesitate to answer Ellendor's words, there is nothing for such an important thing, but he is holding the heart of the ancient tree. Sophie hesitated a few times in her heart, she wanted to say a few words, but in the end she remained silent.

"Let's talk about this at the time, how can I take her away now?" Ellendor lightly pointed to the female shadow, while Ryan said to Faras outside the room: "Fanny, what can you do?"

"It's nothing more than two more practical ones," Faras walked in quickly. She controlled her vision, avoiding the mummy on the bed as much as possible, and then said to Ryan: "Find a temporary container and put her soul in first. Go in, then take her away and think of his method, or you can directly sign a soul contract with her, which will save countless troubles."

"The second kind, isn't it good?" Ryan heard the word soul contract again, and he hesitated.

"It depends on how you and her choose, but I have to remind you that the former is only a temporary means. Even if she takes away her soul, she still has to find other ways to settle it, otherwise there will still be problems. The latter is indeed a A good way, her soul does not need to devour other creatures like necromantic witchcraft to keep herself alive, because you will supply her with your own mana, which is a very heavy price for other magicians, but you just happen to in contrast."

"Is there no other way?" Of course, Ryan also knew the benefits of the soul contract. He provided the opponent with his own mana for consumption, but the opponent had to unconditionally obey his master, which was completely harmless to Ryan. It's just that he really doesn't want to increase the number of soul contracts for himself, Vivienne and Adela are enough to make him a headache.

"If you sign a soul contract, will it affect your life?" The female shadow suddenly spoke.

"This..." As soon as Ryan opened his mouth, Faras rushed to say: "Don't worry, he is not the kind of bad guy who bullies others, you don't have to worry about this. As for the signing of the contract, the master will naturally do it for you. Provide a shelter. If the strength is insufficient, this shelter may be a magic container. When he is strong enough to open up your own space, then you can live in his exclusive magic tower, just to be his steward , This seems to be similar to what you did before, right?"

"It seems...you seem to want me to choose the second option?" The female shadow stared at Farasi deeply.

Farasi’s eyes directly met the other’s gaze, and she said: “Yes, although my power temporarily surpasses him, there are some reasons for it. In fact, I believe that in us people Among them, Ryan must be the first to step in."

"Which step? You mean... the legendary realm?" The female shadow obviously knows a lot about the legendary realm. She first looked at Ryan, then at the view drawing, and asked in a puzzled tone: "How do you look at it? Your power is far more than him, and it seems that even him," the female shadow said, pointing at Ellendor next to him, and then continued: "More than a lot, why?"

"I have confidence in him. In fact, all of us have confidence in him." Falash's face was full of confidence. She gave Ryan a shy look, then raised her head and said: "I am not because I am him. His wife supports him and trusts him. I believe him unconditionally because I am his teammate, because he is our captain. From the first day we met, he took us to complete one after another Incredible task."

"Listening to you, I'm very looking forward to it," the female shadow nodded, then turned to look at Ryan: "Can I join in, future master?"

"Since you chose the soul contract, then I will naturally treat you as a teammate." Ryan had made up his mind when the female shadow was talking to Farasi, and now the other person has made a choice, and he said: "Since the first day of my adventure, I have never abandoned my teammates. This has been the case before, and it will be the same in the future. You are welcome to join... Well, don't you know your name?"

"Emma Angelina, you call me Emma." The female shadow said her name.

"Emma? That's a nice name." Faras took the initiative to say hello to the other party, which was regarded as accepting a new player to join. Then she took advantage of her female advantage and introduced Ryan and his party to the other party. After completing this step, let Ryan begin the whole soul contract ritual.

Compared with Vivienne and Adela, the soul contract between Ryan and Emma is much more difficult, because the latter has no entity anymore, so if Ryan wants this contract to take effect, the price he has to pay is naturally greater. , But with Ryan's current strength, he didn't care about this level of loss at all. He didn't even prepare too much, and he chanted the spell of the soul contract ritual in the surprised eyes of the female shadow Emma.

When Ryan’s finger tapped on Emma’s forehead, Emma, ​​who was originally just a faint shadow, suddenly emitted a looming light, and Emma herself felt a huge energy emanating from Ryan. Slowly absorbed by her emptiness, Emma, ​​who had dried up for 200 years, was greedily absorbing this mana like a long-hungry traveler encountering a sweet stream.

Under Falash’s guidance, Emma slowly strengthened her soul with the mana absorbed from Ryan. This was originally the secret method of a necromancer. It is for this to absorb the essence and soul of other people’s life like Susan. With the support of Ryan’s vast mana like a starry sky, after Emma completed the entire ritual to strengthen her soul, she did not realize that her master had any signs of mana exhaustion. This also made Emma new to Farath’s words. Understanding.

After completing the entire ceremony, Emma was able to float freely, but unfortunately, she could not leave Ryan. Once she left Ryan more than 10 meters, the channel for her to absorb mana from Ryan would stop by itself, which would cause Emma's soul was quickly exhausted due to lack of energy and eventually dissipated, so Emma naturally followed Ryan closely, which made Sophie the thief rarely slander.

Not only that, thanks to Emma's very familiar guide for the entire Temple of Apocalypse, now Ryan and the seven people no longer need Sophie to continue searching. Emma directly leads everyone to the room of the high priest of the temple. On the road, I also encountered many Templars who hadn't rested yet. Emma was very sad that her former companion had become such an immortal monster, but she still begged Ryan and others to let them rest forever.

"This is one of the storerooms of the temple." Emma pointed to a thick door and said, "I don't know if I can open it with a spell now."

After Emma finished speaking, she chanted a series of spells, and the thick wall-like door creaked and slowly opened, until everything in the storage room appeared behind Ryan's eyes, except Emma, ​​everyone else was shocked.

Yes, this is a huge storage room. Ryan estimates that it can hold at least 1,000 people, but this kind of space is not enough to shock Ryan and the others. What really makes Ryan and the others stunned is that it is neatly stacked. A large number of Mithril ingots.

"This is a Mithril warehouse. Each Mithril block is smelted and stored here with a standard weight. Now there is only half a warehouse left. Probably..." Emma tilted her head to calculate, and continued to speak. Said: "It's only enough for 5,000 people. This is already the minimum reserve. In fact, if it wasn't for the undead army, the temple might have added some."

"How is it possible, 5000 people..." Sophie yelled out of silence.

"Yes, it's a bit missing." Emma's expression revealed a regret.

Falasi had seen the storage warehouse of the Imperial Capital, so she still had some resistance to the large number of Mithril ingots that appeared in front of her. She had no idea but suddenly remembered one thing, so she asked: "Emma, ​​these 5000 people you are talking about. The amount, shouldn't it be used to make full body armor?"

"Yes, before our Templars, we all wore Mithril full body armor. Anyway, the weight is very light and it doesn't matter."

"Huh!" Ryan and Faras exhaled at the same time after listening to Emma's words, because their previous calculations made an error.In fact, how can an ordinary warrior be so extravagant to wear mithril full body armor?It’s good to be able to use mithril to strengthen the key parts of the armor. If you follow the arrangement that Ryan gave to Cassano’s warriors before, this can create 5000 sets of mithril ingots for the mithril armor, which may be enough to support 2 A Jonas legion is installed, which is about 120,000 to 130,000.

"I can't wait!" Ryan said to Farasi.

"Me too." Falasi said the same.

"Then, how do we move? A lot..." Sophie said.

"I remember Ryan you brought a lot of storage pockets." Faras continued.

"I'm afraid I can't pretend, don't forget the corpse of the Hydra." Ryan said with a wry smile: "Sometimes it is a distress to get too much."
