The Great Arcanist Who Traveled Through the World of American Variety Shows.

Chapter 558 Searching for the Holy Relic
Drenos was in great pain under the influence of the extraordinary potion, and it seemed as if countless ants were biting him madly all over his body.

But this is not the most painful thing, his soul is also suffering at this moment.

This potion, made with the blood of sea monsters and trolls, possesses the power of both and must withstand the test. The soul needs to fight these two monsters. Only by defeating them can it truly gain these powers.

This process is inevitable. Once the sea monster consciousness contained in it is completely erased, this bottle of potion will become an ordinary strengthening potion instead of a bloodline potion, and its effect will disappear by 80%.

At the same time, they will not be affected by the consciousness in their blood, and their personality will suddenly change. They will become violent and crazy, full of desire for destruction and damage.

This is why only those with a strong will can fuse the bloodline potion. Those with a weak will will eventually be devoured by the power of their bloodline and eventually become crazy monsters.

Dranos gritted his teeth and persisted. The entire blood fusion process lasted about a quarter of an hour. After his blood and the blood potion merged, his body, which had been corroded by the blood potion, began to grow rapidly.

The scars on the body began to heal quickly, and those scars also quickly recovered and disappeared under the power of this blood. Even some old hidden injuries in the body were repaired quickly.

The powerful bloodline power has changed his body, and his cells have been perfectly integrated with this extraordinary bloodline. At the same time, this power will also be passed on with him.

This bloodline power will gradually weaken as it is passed down from generation to generation. After dozens of generations, its bloodline power may be only one-tenth or even one-twentieth of the original value.

After the power of blood inheritance is reduced to the lowest level, it will not decrease any further.

If their descendants are lucky, their ancestral bloodline may revert to that of their ancestors and they may even become very close to them.

In order to prevent the bloodline of their offspring from declining, these people who had successfully merged began to marry each other and became the earliest group of bloodline nobles.

It was also from this day that the nobles began to pay attention to bloodline.

Richard didn't know what kind of mark his fusion of extraordinary blood for these people today would leave in the future history of Western Europe.

Even when society developed into the modern era, aristocrats of noble blood were still sought after by many people.

After integrating the blood power, Drenos' body became stronger. The blood power rapidly rushed through his body, changing his original body.

Under the influence of this force, his muscle strength, bone density and internal organs were comprehensively strengthened. When all this was over, Drenos jumped up and landed on the ground.

"How does it feel?"

"It's better than ever!" Drenos said in surprise as he felt the changes in his body.

Then he knelt down on one knee and said to Richard: "Thank God for giving me a new life!"

"From today on, my family and I will protect you till our death!"

Richard nodded slightly and said, "You get up first."

Under Richard's mental scan, Drenos' physical fitness was displayed in detail before him.

After gaining the blood bonus, Drenos' body did not appear to have become stronger, but his weight increased by one third.

"Druid of Dranos
Race: Human/White (Supernatural Blood); Occupation: Druid/Warrior; Level: 15th level;
力量：17；体质：17；智慧：11；意志：15；敏捷：12；感知：12；

Talents: [Intermediate Strength], [Intermediate Regeneration], [Underwater Breathing], [Devouring Power], [Weak Dragon Vein (All Resistance +5)];
Expertise: Horsemanship Mastery, Warhammer Mastery, Archery Mastery, Tenacity, Horse Combat Mastery, Mastery of Initiative, Combat Expertise, Prayer, Preaching, Thought Seal (additional bonus of 3 points for all will checks), Herbal Medicine Mastery, Medicine, Listening to Nature, Animal Favorability.

Compared with the past, Drenos' current strength has undergone a tremendous change.

Equip him with weapons and armor, and he can kill an army of a hundred men by himself.

His 17 points of strength allow him to lift objects weighing thousands of kilograms with ease. His strong physique increases his endurance time several times, making him almost a tireless perpetual motion machine.

Next, Richard began to perform blood fusion on other people. Soon with his help, the remaining two people also successfully completed the blood fusion.

The changes of the three were quickly noticed by others. After all, they were too strong in the training field. The heavy armor weighing dozens of kilograms seemed like nothing on them, and they ran as fast as a galloping horse.

In some confrontation exercises, any one of the three could easily defeat a team of 30. This performance far beyond the ordinary shocked everyone.

After learning that these powers were bestowed by Richard, everyone revered Richard as a god.

The remaining soldiers selected by Richard trained even harder, as they already knew that they had the opportunity to become such strong men.

It can be said that this opportunity is the best opportunity for them to change their fate and the fate of their family. So, these people began to train desperately.

Richard prepared training methods for these people, and also conducted meditation training. This kind of meditation does not increase magical affinity, but is more like visualization, to increase willpower.

Most of the people selected by Richard were one or two points short of the standard in terms of willpower or physique. After his professional and targeted training, they would most likely reach the minimum requirements for using extraordinary potions.

This training takes several months.

Richard handed over the training of these people to the three people who had completed the blood fusion. At the same time, Richard also prepared a complete training method for the three people, so that they could master all the combat expertise and talents of these warriors.

After staying in the territory for a month, Richard left the territory again. This time, no one tried to stop him. After seeing the strength of Dranos and the other two, everyone was full of confidence in Richard.

Now Drenos and his three men have formed a team, plus dozens of people who are in training, all wearing heavy armor, so they can completely defeat a fully armed elite army of a thousand people head-on.

Even in the current Roman Empire, there are not many such fully armed elite troops, not to mention that almost all the elite troops in Western Europe are now gathered near the Marne River.

The Battle of Chalons is imminent.

Richard did not intend to intervene in the Battle of Chalons. Without his intervention, the Battle of Chalons would inevitably result in the defeat of the Hun Empire and a tragic victory for the Romans, Visigoths and Germans.

This result was the best for Richard. Rome could not lose, but it could not win too easily either. The Huns' crushing defeat still brought a brief balance to Europe.

He just took advantage of this time to develop.

By then, the Germanic barbarians, the Frankish barbarians, the Roman Empire, and the Visigothic Kingdom will all suffer heavy losses, and Richard can take the opportunity to quickly expand his territory.

Next, the political struggle in the Roman Empire will become more intense. The Protector Aetius has gained great reputation by defeating the Scourge of God this time, and will inevitably become more powerful.

And the emperor of the empire, Valentinian III, would certainly be even more dissatisfied.

The final result would definitely be a bloody conflict. According to the course of history, Valentinian III would take advantage of the moment when Aetius entered the palace and was off guard to order the killing of the Roman Protector.

This would directly lead to the collapse of the last pillar of the Roman Empire, and the Roman Empire would collapse with it.

The Western Roman Empire would also be completely reduced to the Kingdom of Italy at this time, and even become the Lord of Rome.
Richard planned to take advantage of the Battle of Sharon to go to the East to look for the holy relics left behind by the Son of God hundreds of years ago.

Through the news brought back by the Monotheistic spies he secretly sent, Richard learned that the Monotheistic Church did not have many holy objects.

They had in their hands the Holy Grail, the Spear of Longinus, the Crown of Thorns and several other items, not as many as the dozen or so items Richard had imagined.

Items like the Holy Bones, Shroud, and Holy Nails are not in the hands of Monotheism. After all, these holy objects are from hundreds of years ago, when Monotheism was still a small church attacked by the Roman Empire.

The monotheistic religions at that time had to hide from place to place and could only preach in secret. Under the attack of the Roman Empire, they often had to flee for their lives.

Many holy objects were lost at this time.

Richard planned to go to Eastern Europe or Jerusalem to look for holy relics. He planned to use the relics to create one or two saints.

And these saints must be Arians who were suppressed by the Roman Church. He was ready to provoke a fight between Arians and the Roman Church.

If the Roman Church really accepted Arianism, the development of their faith would inevitably slow down. After all, according to the teachings of Arianism, the church cannot own a large amount of property.

Without a large amount of property, the development of the church will inevitably slow down. You know, developing believers is not simply explaining the doctrine to them.

Instead, the church needs to pay to build the church first, and then use various means to attract the common people and make them believe in it. The cost is not a small amount.

The Roman Church possessed a large amount of wealth not only for enjoyment, but also for the development of religion. Of course, only their Creator knew which one took more.

Richard crossed the Alps, then entered the Ostrogothic Kingdom, and then went to the East through Constantinople. Although the journey was not peaceful, with Richard's strength, no one could stop him.

He even killed two extraordinary creatures, the Yeti, in the Alps. The Yeti was also a species left over from the mythological era, and they had some of the blood of giants.

It was powerful, strong, covered with long hair, violent, and lived on the mountains. Richard collected the bodies of the two snow monsters and prepared to extract their blood for use.
