Can't I develop my own character?

Amabena was stunned for a moment, then gave a thumbs-up. "Ms. Xia Li, you're amazing! That's Elvian, the most powerful woman in the entire Northern Continent. You just pissed her off. She probably wants to kill you."

"The most powerful woman should be Vene of the Augustus Empire. She will soon become the new emperor."

“Ah? Y-really?”

"You don't watch the news?"

Although they were two different countries, the civil strife in Augustus had been going on for so long that news had more or less trickled in. However, it was limited to matters such as the new emperor taking office. Naturally, no one cared about gossips such as the princess, the archduke, the saint, and a potential earl.

"I often read entertainment news. There's a new dessert shop opening on the North City street (.o﹃o.)"

After Amabena finished speaking, she saw Xia Li's expressionless face and quickly changed her words: "So what should we do now?"

"Let's fight." 'Xia Li' said indifferently. This battle was inevitable anyway.

"Can we win?"

"Of course, we'll win," said Xia Li. "Have the Royal City guards hold the city securely. I'll lead the Holy Blood Legion and try to eliminate those guys outside the city. Oh, and let Anjia lead the guards; she's quite capable. We'll also need to get some more cannons and man the city gates."

"I'm afraid there aren't many cannons."

"I invited a gilded caravan over a few days ago. Anjia is talking to them now. Just pay them."

Amabena nodded: "I'm good at this."

Paying money and stuff, that's what she loves doing the most.

"Um... Miss Charlie, where is Ryan? Where did he go?"

"Lian went to the August Empire. If nothing unexpected happens, it won't be long before the August Empire forms an alliance with us. Then we won't have to worry about the Northern Alliance anymore."

"Eh? Alliance?"

Amabena blinked. Wasn't this what she wanted to do in the first place?

The opponent is Augustus, is it that easy?

Oh, it was Ryan who went, not me, that's okay.

Amabena felt that her chances of success might only be 10%, but if Ryan went, it might be 70%.

As for the impact of the Lot Kingdom's allegiance to Augustus, Amabena doesn't care. Anyway, the Northern Alliance is thinking about dividing her kingdom, and the so-called United Nations is not reliable at all!

...

As expected, the allied forces took action.

Ryan glanced at Charlie's AFK record and didn't care. If the Blood Knights could be scared off by intimidation, the world would have been unified by Elvian long ago.

However, the 30,000-strong coalition army should not be underestimated. The enemy's weapons and military strength are far superior to those of the ragtag army led by Frank. As far as Ryan knows, Wildea is a legitimate country that believes in the Moon God. Elvian has switched to a Moon God-believing profession called "Night Knight", which is one of the few hidden offensive professions in the Moon God's path.

Speaking of knight-related professions, it seems that there is no less awesome one.

Among Wildea's army, there is a unit called the 'Moonlight Knights', which is famous in the northern continent and its combat power is not much different from Maganna's Iron Blood Army.

However, there are only 3,000 people from Wildea in this Northern Allied Army, and only 1,000 of the 3,000 people are from the Moonlight Knights, so it is not that scary.

Having said that, the charge effect of a thousand Moonlight Knights cannot be underestimated, because each Moonlight Knight Corps is led by a Knight Captain, and the Knight Captain is a Moonlight Knight, a Moon God class that excels at defense.

When the Moonlight Knights charge, the Knight Captain will bless the Moonlight Guardian, which can protect the Moonlight Knights from harm to the greatest extent and can also provide great help in the charge.

Basically, in the Northern Alliance, those countries that dared to resist Elvian were killed by the Moonlight Knights.

The enemy was very powerful, so Xia Li had not been idle these days. She recruited a thousand Holy Blood Knights from Silvermoon City, bringing the number of the legion to five thousand. In addition, she also improved the quality of the equipment of the entire legion to maximize its combat capabilities.

Unfortunately, the time is too short and the recruitment of new soldiers cannot be completed. Even though the Holy Blood Legion has its own "war" buff, the combat capabilities of the new recruits are at most slightly stronger than those of ordinary soldiers. They need to grow in war and enjoy the enhancement of war by killing enemies.

"Five thousand people... is enough for now. No need to worry about the second wife."

As long as Wildea's main force is eliminated, the threat posed by the remaining coalition forces will be reduced. Ryan is still confident about his second wife, Charlie.

After this wave of fighting was over, when Elvian wanted to send a large army again, the Kingdom of Lot had already fallen into the arms of Augustus.

You discovered a relic.

"Ok?"

In front of Ryan, 'Mortis' was carrying out a bounty mission.

The hunter group has been created, named "Black Whale", with 16 registered members and level F. Recruitment has begun.

The level of the bounty hunter group needs to be upgraded by accumulating points by completing bounty missions. The speed was very slow before, but because of the increasing number of cracks in the other world, the existence of the demon army has gradually become known, so the Hunter Guild has added a new "Demon Hunting Mission".

Demon hunting is very dangerous, so the points are high. The latest mission that 'Mortis' received is to explore a newly appeared rift in the other world. The basic points are three times higher than other missions. If there are additional discoveries, it is not a dream to directly upgrade.

at this time.

'Mortis' entered the other world and did not see any demons along the way, but he did find a relic.

The destroyed palace of desire, buried beneath the quicksand of time, you brush away the dust and discover traces of desire.

[You walk deep into the ruins and see an ancient statue.]

You hear the echo of desire.

[Looking up at the statue, you choose——]

[1: Bow six times and call out to the great Lord of Desire, Rodite.]

[2: Bow eight times, shout "Long live Doclodes" and destroy the statue.]

[3: The King of the Wild Hunt never bows his head and directly destroys the statue.]

"What the hell?"

It’s not a new thing to trigger a task occasionally. After all, the game mechanism is there. How can the character become stronger without taking the rewards?

The issue is...

desire?

Is it this one?

"Mortis can hear the echo of desire. Could it be because the deep-sea hunter is cursed by the power of desire?"

There's nothing much to say about option 1. It will most likely trigger the rewards of the Path of Desire, and maybe even a hidden profession will emerge. Unfortunately, 'Mortis' has already changed his job.

Choose 2? Very good, the Blood God will reward you.

"The King of the Wild Hunt never bows his head." Lion asked Mortis to draw a lot of 8s in front of the statue.

Mortis: "Desires are empty and useless. War is the truth of this world!"

Your transgression has brought disaster upon yourself. Please be aware that the slaves of desire are coming.

The next moment, a huge black spider appeared in front of the statue.

[Desire's Pious Slave 'Aphis'.lv38]

Ryan was not worried about the boss fight. Although Alphis was at a high level, Mortis had strong attributes, and all five of her followers had been raised to level 35 by her.

The level of the dependent cannot exceed the character's level 5.

puff puff~

In the picture, the giant spider Aphis spurts out a bunch of insect eggs from its butt.

"Ok?"

So sexy.

A group of small spiders soon emerged from these insect eggs. They were all level 32 monsters, and 20 of them exploded at once.

'Mortis' swept over with his black sword and started killing with the help of his followers. Ryan soon discovered that killing these little bugs would actually count as an advanced mission target.

This made Ryan's eyes light up. After killing all the small spiders, 'Mortis' led his followers to surround the big spider and wait for it to continue spraying.

Aphis was very considerate and sprayed out another 20 insect eggs.

"Although I have no experience, I can complete the mission."

Ryan touched his chin and looked at the advanced task which required 500 heads. He wondered how many heads this big spider could fit in its butt.

Well, not many indeed.

After spraying five times, Alphis was completely exhausted, and it did not stay far away any longer. It swung its claws and attacked Mortis.

'The Wild Hunt is coming!'

In the picture, magic power surged from Mortis' body, her long silver-gray hair danced, and the surging magic power condensed into a huge headless warhorse under her!

At the same time, the broken black sword in her hand also changed rapidly, and eventually turned into a spiral lance.

Wild Hunt Stance!

After using the God's Choice skill, 'Mortis' instantly transformed from an infantryman into a cavalryman, and all of its attributes were greatly improved.

Hiss!

The lance thrust out, and the power burst out instantly, killing the little spider summoned by Alphis.

"So damn handsome!"

It has to be said that 'Mortis' in the form of the Wild Hunt King perfectly hit Ryan's XP, and even almost shook the position of his second wife, the Blood Knight, in his heart.

"This is a summoning boss with average attributes."

After confirming that 'Mortis' in the Wild Hunt state could lead his followers to crush the giant spider, Ryan gave up the idea of ​​showing off his skills.

After about three minutes, Alphis's health was running out, and he went to see God with his butt up.

You killed the servant of desire.

The Wild Hunt 'Mortis' stretched out his hand and the effect of the Wild Hunt Blade was triggered. Alphis appeared from the shadows again and served 'Mortis' as a follower.

"Very good, I have another little brother of the Lord."

Although the skills of followers can be improved by devouring them, the differences in the main bodies will cause great differences in the abilities of the followers. For example, the attributes of the lord completely crush ordinary monsters.

After accepting the follower, Ryan looked around. Alphis didn't drop anything, but a large treasure chest appeared next to the statue.

Mortis opened the box, and a series of messages popped up.

【Roast Chicken*5】

【Soul Jade*5000】

【Certificate of the Turbid Heart Knight*1.】

"Damn! Is this really a hidden profession?"

Ryan was stunned.

[Certificate of the Impure Heart Knight: At the dawn of desire, the world was ravaged by the Seven Deadly Sins. A group of righteous knights embarked on a journey to slay the God of Desire. However, these knights were ultimately corrupted by desire and degenerated into executors of sin. Use this certificate to advance to the Seven Deadly Sins: Lustful and Impure Heart Knight.]

[The Knight of the Turbid Heart: A knight of fallen lust, he hates desire and has a strong heart, but is cursed by desire and becomes the source of all evil. By controlling lust, the Knight of the Turbid Heart can easily destroy any target.]

[Job Change Condition: Charm ≥ 12]

"Good boy, I'm really lucky."

The Turbid Heart Knight is quite famous in the game. It is the profession that players most desire to change to. Ryan doesn't remember the specific skills, but he remembers that the magic growth of this profession is maximized.

"The job change requirements are a bit high, 12 points of Charisma, let me see..."

Ryan switched to Norsia's character interface and found that it was only 9 points. Even so, 9 points of charm was already very high among ordinary people, and 12 points was a natural succubus body.

Look at her, with her smooth brown hair and face that's as pretty as any of her other wives, and her eyes like sparkling emeralds, Norsia is a real beauty. But charm is also influenced by temperament and occupation, so it's hard to pinpoint.

"Forget it, I'd better just switch to Soul Eater."

Nosia has been killing monsters in the city for a day and is now level nine. She will be able to change her job soon.

It just so happened that after the job change, the character creation was refreshed. Ryan planned to create a new character in Wildea and change the job to the Turbid Heart Knight to disintegrate the enemy's powerful alliance from within.

"Speaking of which, why is there so much lustful stuff in the Kingdom of Lot?"

Having caught a demon of desire before, and now a miracle of desire has appeared, Ryan plans to dig deeper. If he can dig out a chaotic space influenced by desire, then the advancement of 'Motis' will have a solution in the future.

Leaving 'Mortis' to continue hanging up, Ryan stood up and stretched, planning to walk around the camp to see what the lovely Grand Duke was doing.

The engagement party was still a few days away, and the fiancé's reputation was set. Since they were already engaged, they might as well cultivate their relationship, right? When could he pick up the Grand Duke and sprint? Ryan had personally completed the storyline of the butter character.

Just thinking about it.

A tough soldier walked in.

"Master Ryan, someone is looking for you outside the camp."
