Even killing a Legendary-level soldier only permanently increases 1008 points of flame damage. After factoring in the opponent’s resistance reduction, the actual damage may only be a few hundred or even a few dozen points.

However, it’s entirely different for the soldiers under Commander Hepanse; the flame damage they deal is equivalent to true damage. With a permanent increase of 1008 points of true damage, the effect is immediate! It can be said to be a major strategic upgrade.

Back then, Lin Rui didn’t choose these two Sacred Treasures, and theoretically, they should have been taken away by the empire. Yet now, they have appeared in the hands of the Golden Treasure Hall!

It’s hard to imagine what kind of changes and upheavals occurred on the Colonization Star from the end of the Plane War to the time Lin Rui returned to his territory.

In fact, the Plane War on the Colonization Star had ended almost a cycle ago. Lin Rui just delayed for a few days in between and didn’t leave the Colonization Star immediately, returning to his territory at the last moment of forced departure.

At that time, he and his troops were counting over three hundred thousand fallen and buried World Tree Leaves in the ruins of the Elf Imperial Court.

The Golden Treasure Hall had been staying in that burning world of ruins, much like exploring a treasure trove, and undoubtedly had even more fortuitous encounters. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

And Nakada explained, "The Colonization Star is desolate now, not only the Graveyard and Elves were severely damaged, but the empire also had an internal war. The Judgement Court and Seven Holy Countries raised a rebellion against the empire, and many high-ranking officials fled in numbers. We took the opportunity to seize a lot of wealth and also sent away many people. So these two Sacred Treasures were legally acquired by us, you can be assured of that."

Lin Rui nodded and directly pocketed these two items.

This act of profiteering by taking advantage of the chaos can now yield enormous wealth. Once the Colonization Star stabilizes, it’s likely they will be liquidated by a newly unified dominant force.

The fact that they had this opportunity also meant they took huge risks, and Lin Rui wasn’t envious in the least.

The Dragon Heart, Lin Rui planned to give to Terion. The effect of this Sacred Treasure is relatively straightforward, sturdy and reliable like Terion, providing an increase to life and protective values. Its strongest effect is when a soldier’s life value falls below 30%, the Dragon Heart will trigger the [Dragon Soul Shelter] effect, providing a shield for 8 seconds that is immune to all damage except true damage, and restores 5% life every second. This effect can only be triggered once per battle.

This is already like an upgraded version of the Epic Trait: Heart of the Brave, enforcing an 8-second lock on life and continually restoring it. It is enough to make Commander Terion’s Black Banner Guard a very solid and reliable bulwark.

The Black Banner Guard has now practically become Terion’s exclusive troop type, but this unit is no longer weak.

With the blessing of the Radiant Hourglass twice, the Black Banner Guard has benefited the most. Their starting point is low, and their strength has exponentially multiplied, with many soldiers standing out to become Rare Level. Previously, a squad would only have one squad leader at Rare Level, but now it seems that each team in a squad has a Rare Level existence.

Other than newly recruited units still at Elite-level, veterans generally have added new Rare Level Traits.

[Sanctuary of Feedback · Rare Level Trait: Under the holy shield’s protection, the warrior will retaliate with thunderous power, breaking the dawn, and dispelling dark tides. When obtaining a shield, they dispel one negative state on themselves and increase their shield value by +10%. While possessing shield value, if attacked by the opponent, they will counter-shock the opponent by 45% of the current shield value.]

Rare Level Traits are not powerful enough to change the course of a battle. They are more like a sturdy foundation, consistently providing effects on the battlefield at every moment.

With the blessing of this trait, when the Black Banner Guard possesses a shield, their retaliatory damage is further increased.

And shield values are usually related to life values, gaining shields based on life value percentage, so the Dragon Heart can significantly enhance Terion Forces’ defense and damage.

The other Sacred Treasure·Angel’s Wings is undoubtedly intended for Wutong.

After all, after returning to the territory this time, Lin Rui’s marriage alliance with Wutong has also been settled.

Even though convincing this Empress to be Loyal to Death is a bit challenging, currently, she already listens to some of Lin Rui’s words, at least commanding troops in battle is within her capabilities.

By tomorrow morning, Lin Rui will likely lead her into the Desolate Domain World.

By then, she would need her troops to fight, and a little enhancement from Sacred Treasures wouldn’t hurt.

Since she was previously unable to leave the territory, Lin Rui has never gifted her with Sacred Treasures for command and battle.

The Angel’s Wings is quite suitable for her. This Sacred Treasure is the opposite of the Dragon Heart, being lightweight and nimble, and the only item in the territory that grants a flying capability.

Even though the flight lasts only fifteen seconds, it is still a decent boost for an Aries Gold Saint.

Moreover, this is just the initial state of the Sacred Treasure, and Lin Rui can enhance its data through extreme fortification.

At that point, flying for one or even two minutes may not be out of reach.

seconds of flight time!

Though it might be trivial during long marches or strategic transitions lasting several days, in battle, it can already be a decisive factor.

In evenly matched battles, it’s challenging to fight for 120 seconds, how intense must the offense and defense be? The flashes of swords and blades would rip the entire battlefield into chaos.

Especially since this Sacred Treasure also carries 1.5 times divine damage and a blinding effect, it can quickly help the soldiers determine the victor in a fierce confrontation.

Subsequently, Lin Rui looked towards the four Strategic Treasures.

These four Strategic Treasures are quite interesting, as they belong to three different races.

Two of the Strategic Treasures belong to humans.

[Qiai Priest·Strategic Treasure: When a friendly priest kills an enemy unit, they can trigger a healing skill at no cost.]

[Blazing Soul Fire·Strategic Treasure: When a commander’s soldiers use a skill, they gain two layers of the Blazing Soul effect: each layer increases attack speed by +10%, lasting for 7 seconds, stackable up to 7 layers.]

These two Strategic Treasures, the Qiai Priest undoubtedly belongs to Yalanna, as she commands the most priests.

Blazing Soul Fire, on the other hand, Lin Rui equipped on himself. His ability can amplify the entire army after weakening himself!

Increasing attack speed, for instance, affects the entire army, and equipping it will maximize its efficiency for him.

The strategic treasure for the Undead was given directly to Audrey.

[Blood’s Elegy·Strategic Treasure: The Blood Curse is a gift from the Undead, and whenever the Crimson Hero raises the toast to dance, the Blood Hunter from the mortal world becomes restless. Each time the equipped hero levels up, there’s a chance to grant a troop an upgrade (though it can’t break through Heroic Spirit Level.)]

Audrey finds it relatively easy to level up, and she’s about to reach an upgrade soon.

By that time, her troops can swiftly gain a large number of Talent upgrades.

Moreover, the advantage of this item is its non-binding nature, allowing her to alternate it among three heroes.

Whenever someone needs an upgrade, they can take this strategic treasure. As stated in the description, it works for every Undead Hero.

The strategic treasure for the Elves is named [Heart of the Maiden: You may call me Jasmine, call me Moralis, or even call me Momo, but just don’t call me Shepherd Leader. It makes me sound like an old lady. The relic of the Elf Shepherd Leader Moralis Moli allows elves to maintain eternal maiden vitality. When receiving excessive healing, there’s a chance for their life limit to permanently increase by +1. In battles, if their Charm exceeds the enemy’s, they’ll have a damage coefficient additionally increased based on the Charm difference.]

This Heart of the Maiden is actually quite interesting. If used well, its effect might not be inferior to a Sacred Treasure.

Lin Rui stored it away, planning to personally discuss with Rose the use of this Heart of the Maiden later.

At present, Lin Rui looked at Nakada and asked, "What do you plan to price these six treasures at?"

Nakada didn’t hesitate, directly saying, "A total of two billion Spirit Crystal Coins should do it!"

Lin Rui smiled, "It seems you’ve brought quite a lot of exquisite items this time, very confident indeed."
