Chapter 251 Death Core
Roland encountered almost no difficulties in the war of conquest he started.

After the greenskin high priest was killed by Roland, this warlord territory fell into civil strife, and the various greenskin tribes fought each other endlessly in order to decide the new greenskin warlord.

Even if Roland came to kill them, there was no sign of their internal fighting stopping.

Compared to the warlord territories, whose overall strength has been declining due to the dispersion of internal strife and the sealing of vitality, Roland's side is completely the opposite.

First of all, with the existence of the Fountain of Life as a resurrection point, Roland's army did not suffer any casualties. Even if they died, they would only be weak for ten days at most, and then they could continue to fight on the battlefield.

Moreover, with the smooth progress of administrative reforms, the legion soldiers scattered across the country were gradually transferred to the front lines, and a new batch of recruits who had completed training in the barracks also joined the front lines.

In addition, the legionnaires who had been scattered to various places previously also brought a large number of new recruits.

Compared to the previous recruits who were mainly humans, this time the recruits are from the entire territory, all cities, towns and villages, and with the return of people from all over the place, the recruits this time are of all races.

Humans, halflings, half-elves, gnomes, goblins, dwarves and even some orcs also chose to join the army.

The number of Roland's troops is constantly expanding.

In addition to the headquarters, there is also a constant stream of extraordinary people and soldiers coming over from the outside world.

Therefore, as Roland's military power continued to rise, the warlord's territory naturally could not withstand such a fierce offensive.

Even though Roland and Hela, two powerful fighters, are not at the front line because Roland is still recovering, the battle reports from the front line are also frequent. It's all about winning.

On May 5, as the front-line troops crossed the ruins of Linhebao, the progress of the conquest of the warlord's territory had exceeded half.

More than half of the warlords' territories were captured.

However, after taking this step, the front-line troops finally faced the core area of ​​the warlord's territory.

As the base camp once operated by the greenskin high priest, it is not easy to take down even if the core cities are independent and hostile to each other.

After learning this, Roland, who had almost recovered, also prepared to go to the front line.

However, just as Roland was about to march eastward to the front line with the 10,000 elite veterans transferred from the rear, an unexpected guest visited Roland.

Roland sat at the desk, thoughtfully playing with a token in his hand that had no icon on it and no one could tell who it belonged to.

However, Roland was certain that the token carried the power of the Four-Ring Knight.

After comparing all the Four-Ring Knights Roland had met, he roughly guessed where this power came from.

Roland put down the token, looked up at Alfonso and asked.

"Did the visitor say anything?"

"No."

Alfonso, whose entire body including his eyes and mouth was covered in black armor, shook his head and responded in a hoarse voice.

"Well, in that case, let's follow her instructions and invite her in secretly."

Roland nodded and spoke. He nodded and left the room in silence.

Alfonso, the only successful experimental subject in the Death Core experiment, is Roland's current designated Death Knight incubator and Progenitor.

Death Knight is one of the unorthodox ways of playing that was created through constant updates and experiments by players in the previous life.

Compared to many unorthodox ways of playing that are just for the sake of simplicity, the Death Knight is a relatively mature and stable solution with solvable side effects.

Therefore, in order to train a group of powerful extraordinary people as quickly as possible, Roland turned his attention to this plan.

In the previous life, when all kinds of evil ways of playing were developing, it was very simple to implement such evil ways of playing. You just had to find a Death Knight, buy a Death Core, and then use it on yourself.

Since the system is mature, with different levels and installation plans of the Death Core, there are different ways to play whether you are rich or poor.

Those who are rich can buy a full set of death cores, and then use various expensive alchemical potions and rituals to install them. Those who are poor can buy a low-level death core, and then just dig it out and stuff it directly into the chest.

However, there was not a single Death Knight in this world, and buying a Death Core was completely impossible, so Roland had to start from scratch and hand-make the world's first Death Core.

In order to improve the quality of the Death Core as much as possible, Roland turned his attention to the Gray Crow.

After Roland and Hela entered Donnar, Gray Crow also accumulated enough energy, traveled to the dark elemental world, and successfully evolved into a new four-ring undead.

Relying on the contract with Hela, Gray Crow, who has household registration in both the dark elemental world and the material world and has the talent of virtualization, is able to travel back and forth between the dark elemental world and the material world.

Therefore, under Roland's pressure, Gray Crow shuttled back and forth between the two worlds, providing Roland with a large amount of dark element materials.

Among them, the most important point is that the soul fire native to the dark elemental world is the most critical material of the death core.

Thanks to Grey Crow's unremitting efforts, Roland obtained a large amount of soul fire, which enabled him to practice and master the manufacturing process of the death core.

Roland's final result was a death core made of a five-ring soul fire.

This ball of five-ring soul fire was created by Gray Crow, who relied on his identity as a undead and his talent for virtualization and killed several five-ring undead in the dark elemental world.

At the beginning, after the Gray Crow brought this ball of soul fire back, it huddled on Hela's shoulder and dormant for more than a month before it barely recovered.

And this death core is still relatively good in terms of the final result.

Since Roland had already started selecting the receptors for the first death core when he recruited the first batch of soldiers in Old Qi.

For example, when Old Qi was resisting the invasion, Hela and the group of knights were the recipients initially selected by Roland.

Either the situation is similar to Alfonso, who absorbed a large amount of dark elements during the training of new recruits by relying on negative emotions and a constant supply of vitality, and his talent gradually shifted towards dark elements, or his initial talent is biased towards dark elements.

So, when Roland created the Death Core, there were already thousands of receptors waiting in line.

However, the failure rate was too shocking. The original Death Core energy was too violent. Not to mention using the Five-Ring Soul Fire to create a Death Core, except for Alfonso, they didn't even have a Death Core that could bear the energy of a One-Ring Soul Fire.

If Roland had not stopped the installation in time when he found that they could not bear it, these thousands of recipients would have died countless times.
