"The Black Duke? This mysterious vampire is definitely not an ordinary person."

Lei Xiao looked at the last blood-red storage ring on the table and recalled the scorching battlefield filled with blood and fire not long ago.

"He was actually able to reach an agreement with the notorious air pirate Blood Skull, and almost killed me by secretly crossing into Chen Cang. The threat was even greater than that of Man in Black No. 3 who used underground sandworms."

"Had it not been for our fifth-level strong men to gather together in the end, and the dawn to dispel the darkness in time, otherwise we would not have been able to kill this cunning guy who can use atomization."

Lei Xiao frowned and opened the attribute bar of the blood-red storage ring.

[Name: Bloodthirsty Child]

[Level: Level 4? Epic (Purple)]

[Defense Strength: None]

[Additional effect 1: Point to the space? "Any object without life can be stored and taken out at will. The space capacity is 100 cubic meters."]

[Additional Effect 2: Bloodthirsty "Exclusive to vampires, improves the wearer's atomization ability"]

[Note: This is a storage ring from the Vampire Clan. Only the Dukes of the Vampire Clan are eligible to wear it. It was produced in the Iron Hand Islands.

It is said that in that mysterious country rich in pirates and labyrinths, the human race and the vampire race have always maintained a certain unknown delicate balance, and it is the only isolated place where they can coexist harmoniously with each other.]

"So, does the Black Duke really come from the Iron Hand Islands? This is the most mysterious one among the human nations."

Lei Xiao stared at the text on the attribute column and nodded thoughtfully.

On the human territory that is isolated by the Baibu Mountains, a natural chasm that spans the entire continent, the term human kingdoms represents a total of seven powerful human kingdoms.

They are the Cold Flame Kingdom located in the center and extending in all directions.

The Pars Empire in the northwest, the Kingdom of Grim in the west, the Iron Hand Islands in the far west and on the other side of the sea, the Grassland Kingdom in the south, the Holy Night Kingdom in the east, and Canlan in the far east

federal.

Among the human nations, information about the Iron Hand Islands is undoubtedly the scarcest.

Firstly, this is because this country, surrounded by seas, has a very special geographical location and has actively cut off contact with other human nations for hundreds of years.

Secondly, it is because this is the only country among the human countries that is willing to coexist with vampires.

Since vampires often do evil in human countries, they are notorious, which directly leads to the Iron Hand Islands also having a bad reputation. Very few civilians and ordinary strong people are willing to take a boat to go there.

"It is said that the reason why the Iron Hand Islands are willing to coexist with the Vampires is because their royal family members all have Vampire ancestry. What's more, there are rumors that the actual controller of the Iron Hand Islands is already a Vampire."

Lei Xiao picked up the blood-red ring that was cold to the touch on the table and began to play with it casually.

"But what is certain is that the Black Duke definitely does not represent the royal family of the Iron Hand Islands, otherwise he would not have won over the Bloodskull Pirates, the mortal enemies of the Iron Hand Islands."

"As for what purpose the Black Duke has in supporting the eldest prince, at least it is unknown now."

Lei Xiao put down the bloody ring in his hand, and his eyes gradually became solemn.

"However, once I send Ariel to the throne and completely control the Cold Flame Kingdom, if nothing unexpected happens, the other human kingdoms will soon fall into my hands one after another. Then I will go directly to the Iron Hand Islands

Just investigate.”

"With the support of the state machinery and my talent, the overall strength of the Cold Flame Kingdom will undoubtedly grow explosively in the short term."

Thinking of this in his mind, Lei Xiao frowned slightly again.

But then again, the Cold Flame Kingdom is located in the center of the human race, bordering the Pars Empire to the north, the Grim Kingdom to the west, the Grassland Kingdom to the south, and the Holy Night Kingdom to the east. The geographical location is obviously one that cannot be changed.

Disadvantages.

If when you conquer a country and are back-stabbed by another country, it will be a serious problem.

Under this situation, if we encounter the two or even three alliance armies again and launch a joint attack, things will become even more critical.

"But no matter what, only by integrating the power of the human race can I lead the entire human race to conquer other alien races. Otherwise, the power of the human race as a country will simply not be able to compete with those immortal races."

"After all, in the eyes of those immortal races with strong foundations, the human race is just an ant-like existence, with no value in conquering at all."

"In the history of the human race after the blank era, except for a few arrogant monarchs who tried to attack foreign races, and then led to the mighty army being completely wiped out by the opponent's patrol team, no one has ever tried to do this again.

Already."

Lei Xiao shrugged and continued thinking in his heart.

"Under this premise, if I lead the human army and stand in front of the foreigners' country, I'm afraid the other party will be shocked."

Lei Xiao smiled faintly, and then nodded thoughtfully.

Lei Xiao clearly understood, judging from the information provided by the subordinates summoned from other continents.

The alien lords from other countries who traveled from Blue Star have gradually emerged and began to crazily attack cities and plunder lands in various places.

This means that with such a large base of lords, an all-out war between continental plates will eventually become inevitable.

Therefore, facing the lords of other countries with all kinds of strange talents, only by integrating the power of the entire sector can he have enough capital to win the next war and protect his territory and the countless creatures in the entire sector.

In addition, there are unknown catastrophes that may come to this land at any time, causing immeasurable disasters and chaos. Only a force that is stronger and even strong enough to compete with nature can avoid all of this from happening to the greatest extent.

Moreover, catastrophe does not necessarily refer to natural disasters, but more likely to be unimaginable and terrifying things.

"The most important thing is that I also want to find the ultimate truth of this world, which includes the blank era three thousand years ago, the disappearance of the gods, and the reasons for the arrival of us alien lords."

"If there is no corresponding strength, all of this is naturally empty talk and cannot be achieved at all."

Lei Xiao slowly took a deep breath and brought his thoughts back to reality.

What needs to be done now is naturally to focus on pulling Han Shui down from the throne after attending the celebration banquets in various places tonight, and then deal with the fourth prince. That will be Ariel's last obstacle to the throne.

While Lei Xiao was thinking this, his heart moved slightly and he upgraded the three storage rings.

Since the Black Duke's equipment is already damaged and cannot be upgraded, these three storage rings are the final trophies.

[Congratulations, your "Level 4 Accessory: Child of Sharpness" has been upgraded to "Level 5 Accessory: Child of Meteor"! 】

[Congratulations, your "Level 4 Accessory: Child of Darkness" has been upgraded to "Level 5 Accessory: Child of Darkness"! 】

[Congratulations, your "Level 4 Accessory: Bloodthirsty Child" has been upgraded to "Level 5 Accessory: Child of Blood Feast"! 】

"What I thought was a qualitative change, have they all been upgraded to a qualitative change? This is a good thing for the main force and subordinates."

"It is precisely because of the joint support of many top-level equipment that my main subordinates can win the final victory against evenly matched or even stronger opponents."

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows with a look of joy on his face.

"By the way, judging from the upgrade of the loot, although the golden finger talent has not been upgraded yet, my ability to control the talent independently has been steadily improved."

"The approximate control ratio between the two has increased from the previous 7:3 to 8:2. This undoubtedly means that my talent upgrade has taken another big step forward!"

Lei Xiao thought this while opening the attribute column of the first new fifth-level ring.

[Name: Meteor Child]

[Level: Level 5? Extraordinary (Silver)]

[Defense Strength: None]

[Additional effect 1: Point to the space? Holy "Any object without life breath can be stored and taken out at will, the space capacity is 500 cubic meters"]

[Additional effect two: Edge? Extremely "moderately improves the wearer's physical penetration ability"]

[Remarks: It moves like a meteor and is indestructible.]

"Has the increased physical penetration ability been improved? The one who can maximize the power of this ring is naturally the White Knight."

Lei Xiao pondered and nodded, thinking to himself: "By the way, during the fifth-level equipment upgrade just now, I also got a set of pure white knight armor, a lance and a knight sword that fit the white knight.

The white knight should change into a set of fifth-level equipment."

"In this battle at Stargazing Corridor, the White Knight who arrived in time helped me a lot, and now he has sworn allegiance to me. He deserves all of this."

After making up his mind, Lei Xiao continued to look at the next storage ring.

[Name: Child of Darkness]

[Level: Level 5? Extraordinary (Silver)]

[Defense Strength: None]

[Additional effect 1: Point to the space? Holy "Any object without life breath can be stored and taken out at will, the space capacity is 500 cubic meters"]

[Additional effect two: Pitch black? Extremely "moderately improves the wearer's dark attribute attack ability"]

[Note: Even in the empty eye sockets of the God of Death, the brilliance of life can still be seen.]

"Is it a ring that increases dark attribute attack power? Then let it be used by Ye Cang. After all, this is the most powerful healer and torturer under my command."

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows and began to look at the last storage ring.

[Name: Child of Blood Feast]

[Level: Level 5? Extraordinary (Silver)]

[Defense Strength: None]

[Additional effect 1: Point to the space? Holy "Any object without life breath can be stored and taken out at will, the space capacity is 500 cubic meters"]

[Additional Effect 2: Blood Feast "Exclusive to the Vampire Clan, greatly improves the wearer's atomization ability"]

[Remarks: This is a storage ring from the Vampire Clan. It is said that only prince-level vampires are qualified to wear it. Very few people can see this thing intact. 】
