Chapter 901: Rewards for Becoming an Emperor

Chapter 901: Rewards for Becoming an Emperor

The monument was not a reward for Lothar's enthronement, but a building that was drawn a long time ago. It had no real meaning, nor did it have any special effects like a treasure such as the angel statue.

But using it at this time is undoubtedly a powerful weapon that can subtly influence people's cognition of this era. The war is about to end - at least it will come to an end.

For a long time to come, peace and development will be the mainstream of this new empire.

The first is an artifact called the "Iron Crown of Lombardy". This artifact replaced the King's Crown, which had always had little presence in Lothar's hands. While its capabilities have been comprehensively improved, it has not been excluded from the King's suit.

Description: It is one of the oldest symbols of royal power in the Christian world. Legend has it that it was made of the iron nailed to Jesus' body during his crucifixion. Regardless of whether the legend is true or not, it does have the power to kill gods.

Effect 1: [All under heaven belongs to the emperor] - Within your de jure territory, you can use a special "Emperor's Decree" to impose negative effects including weakening, restraining, and deterring on any target with a lower title level than you.

At the same time, if you are outside the territory, you can also temporarily designate a piece of land of 100 square kilometers as your "temporary palace". The location of the "temporary palace" will be temporarily regarded as your legal territory. Each time you designate a "temporary palace", a cooling-off period of three days is required.

Note: The effect of the decree is still subject to the status of the territory. Your current territory status is "Usurping Pretender".

Effect 2: [Lord of Hosts], the iron crown stained with holy blood possesses the great power of the Lord of Hosts. You can designate any of your followers or soldiers to temporarily gain one-third of your attributes. Note that if the target's strength is too different from yours, it is very likely that they will die directly after the blessing effect ends.

Effect 3: [Echo of the Oracle], you can consume your mental power at any time, regardless of the distance between the two parties, communicate with any followers, and see everything they see. After spending a lot of mental power, you can even create a spiritual incarnation and come to the side of the followers.

Although the name of the Lombard Crown is "Iron Crown", it is extremely magnificent. The eight lily-shaped crown branches are inlaid with pearls and gems.

There is also an identical one in this world, which is kept in the Monza Cathedral in Milan. Charlemagne used it when he defeated the Lombard Kingdom, brought the northern and central regions of the Apennines under his rule, and was crowned the King of Lombardy.

But Lothar felt that if he took out this iron crown, the people in the Holy Land would definitely think that the one in his hand was more like the authentic one than the one kept in Milan.

Compared to the original "King's New Crown", this Iron Crown not only retains the original capabilities, but also has all-round enhanced effects. For example, the original "All under heaven belongs to the king" special effect can only take effect within the territory and is useless outside the border.

Now, although it is still restricted by the scope of its territory, it can designate a piece of territory as its "palace", which immediately gives it a strong strategic value.

As for the evaluation of himself as a "usurper and hypocritical monarch", with the liberation of all of Egypt and the conquest of the Ayyubid dynasty's territory, which had become a mess, by the Crusaders, it would surely quickly return to the average level.

There is no need to explain the value of effect 2 "Lord of the Host", a pure enhancement ability.

An idea immediately came to his mind - to give his own buff effect to Lavinia, and then let her buff him back, to achieve the effect of the left foot stepping on the right foot.

Effect 3 "Echo of the Oracle" seems to be the most mediocre of the three abilities, but even so, its functionality and strategic significance are quite strong. At least with this, Lothar can contact Captain Hogg who has been missing for a long time.

Lothar took out the crown, whose beauty could not be described by any words, and tried to connect with it with his mental power, but found that an extremely powerful counterattack force emerged from the crown.

Compared to the exclusive artifact of the Spear of Destiny that grew with Lothar step by step, or the companion artifacts such as the Holy Lance of Jeanna and the Hell's Gate of Prajna, this Iron Crown is like an unruly horse.

Lothar put it down angrily, realizing that it was the spirit of the crown expressing its dissatisfaction with him. After all, it had been thrown into the king's ring by Lothar to gather dust with those miscellaneous items, and it had only been worn during the first coronation.

It will probably take some time to appease the spirit of the weapon.

Next is the upgraded "Emperor's Spear of Destiny". This artifact previously belonged to Lothar's main battle treasure. Although the improvement brought by the upgrade is not as good as the "Corona", it is still a first-class exclusive artifact in Lothar's hands.

1. Sharp Gun: Designate a target and put it on the "Wanted List". The damage caused to it by any soldier or follower under your command, including yourself, will be increased by %.

2. All the enemies in your territory are your subjects: Any enemy in your legal territory, including the "temporary palace", will be forced to be subject to the "servant" effect by you, which will reduce their hostility towards you and halve the damage they cause to you and all your subordinates.

3. Spear of Destruction: Dragon Qi can break all laws. The Spear of Destiny infused with dragon Qi can break any tangible magic cast by the enemy. You can use it twice more by overdrawing, and the cooldown time increases by one day for each additional overdraw.

Effect 1 is a complete enhancement. Originally it only increased the speed of your subordinates when they were moving towards the enemy, but now it has been changed to increase the damage.

Effect 2: The original "Assassinate the King and Kill Him" ​​is useless and can only cause critical damage to enemies with higher titles than oneself. Although it is very powerful after being triggered, the prerequisites are too harsh and it is completely useless.

Now that it has been changed to this universal ability, it can also be linked with the Lombardy Iron Crown, which is undoubtedly a great enhancement.

Effect 3 has the smallest change, except that it can only be used once a day, but can only be used three times at most. The cooldown time will also be increased, but its strategic significance immediately increases by more than ten times.

The last one is the "Emperor's Ring". This thing has always been used by Lothar as a storage item. Although it has the ability to withstand enemy attacks, it has been useless due to the situation in Lothar's territory.

Right now, there is no special change in its two abilities. Just like the previous Spear of Destiny, it has added a bottom-line extreme. Even if the territory situation is bad, it can still maintain the level of an "excellent-grade" treasure and will not be completely useless.

Not to mention the last ring, just based on the upgrades of the first two, if Lothar were to encounter a legend like Shemaier who possessed a powerful artifact, he could rush forward with his followers and easily deal with him.

In addition to the Emperor's three-piece suit, the final big reward is here.

"Designated Ability Enhancement Voucher" has the effect of designating any one of your talents or abilities to greatly enhance it.

As the final reward, its value is beyond doubt. If it is not limited to being used only on "oneself", Lothar would definitely designate it as the most suitable one for his squires, because by enhancing the squire, his shared talents will also be enhanced, which means enhancing him twice at once.

But since it has limited itself, there is no doubt about where Lothar will be used.

After all, the most useful talents like "Magic Warrior" were all borrowed by him. Although his own abilities were greatly enhanced after he obtained the six-star template of "Marble King", his trump card was undoubtedly the "True Dragon Transformation" that had helped him defeat many powerful enemies.

You have chosen the special skill "True Dragon Transformation" to upgrade.

Your true dragon body has been greatly enhanced, from the original "high-level ancient dragon species" to "legendary ancient dragon species".

The description was just a short line of small characters, but Losa could clearly feel the energy surging in his body like a volcano.

The dragon blood in his body was advancing and transforming - this was not just an improvement when he turned into a true dragon, but an all-round improvement in his life level, lifespan, and attributes.

The severe pain made him speechless. If he had not gone through the "Ghost Dragon Trial" and his mental strength was enhanced in all aspects, Lothar might have kicked his legs and fainted, and let his dragon bloodline advance on its own.

But Lothar was not unconscious. Instead, he endured the severe pain and added his own will to guide his bloodline to transform according to his will, enhancing the fire attribute, magic resistance, and single-target attack.

After a very long time, so long that Lothar had gradually become familiar with this heart-wrenching pain, the pain suddenly reached a higher level - his bloodline had completed the advancement, and the next step was his bone marrow.

This pain finally exceeded the threshold that Losa could bear. His instinct forced him into a coma, cutting off his perception.
