"What happened to the sudden disappearance of the time-stop domain just now?"
After the battle ended, Rennes began to investigate the reason for the premature end of the time-stop, this matter is very important.
After all, the time-stop is a major trump card for him, if it fails at a critical moment, then…
"It should be because that ancient red dragon possesses a higher intensity of immortality."
After reviewing the situation, Rennes had a guess in his mind, every half god possesses immortality, they can resist time and slow down the passing of their own lifespan.
As their strength increases, the intensity of their immortality also gradually strengthens.
And that ancient red dragon has a 25th level of strength, so the intensity of its immortality is undoubtedly quite high. Naturally, it has a strong resistance to time-based abilities.
That's why, his time-stop ability only lasted for two seconds.
"It seems that I need to find a way to enhance the intensity of the time-stop in the future."
Rennes thought to himself, otherwise, facing an immortal gods and deities, the world's blessing would be completely useless, so he kept this matter in mind.
Immediately, Rennes began to collect the spoils of war, the ancient red dragon is full of treasures.
Among them, he values the soul and heart of the ancient red dragon the most.
Activating the Eight level arcane art - Soul Extraction, he extracted the soul of the ancient red dragon and sealed it in a soul container he had prepared in advance.
Then, he then dug out its heart and sealed it in a specialized magical vessel to keep it alive.
After obtaining the magic materials he wanted, Rennes did not choose to stop.
Instead, he continued to dissect the body of the ancient red dragon.
Now that the ancient red dragon had just died, it was the time when its vitality was highest, so if he didn't quickly cut it up and preserve it, its vitality would decrease after some time and the effect then would greatly reduce.
After more than ten minutes.
Using magic, Rennes cuts off most valuable parts from the ancient red dragon, classifying and sealing them in magical containers, freezing them, and putting them into his space ring.
After completing all of this, Rennes looked towards a certain place in the upper right corner of the sky and casually said.
"Madam, you have been observing for so long, you should have seen enough!"
As soon as his voice fell.
"How did you discover me?"
A lazy and magnetic pleasant female voice sounded, the void there rippled like the surface of water.
A woman wearing a black magic cloak and a magic hood walks out from it, looking at Rennes with interest.
Under the loose cloak is a dress similar to a low-cut outfit, only covering the vital parts, the waist was exposed in the air, and except for the hands and lower legs, which were covered in purple-black thin gauze. A Large areas of skin in other areas were basically exposed.
In her hand, she also held a legendary staff embedded with star gems.
Carefully observing, even Rennes, who has a dozens of beautiful wives, couldn't help but be amazed by this woman.
It has to be said, this woman is too beautiful.
Fair skin, slender waist, ample buttocks, her temperament is also extremely unique.
Sexy and alluring, with a hint of mystery, it makes people unable to resist the desire to explore.
Facing Rennes' scanning gaze, this woman showed no embarrassment at all.
Instead, she deliberately straightened up, highlighting her figure even more curvaceous.
Then, she spoke to Rennes again.
"Have you seen enough?"
"Can you tell me how you sensed my presence?"
This was the first time someone has seen through her void stealth magic.
Upon hearing this, Rennes, however, has no intention of answering.
Instead, he asked back.
"Who are you? Why were you secretly spying on me?"
In the midst of conversation, he raised the Judgment Holy great Sword with his right hand, once he confirmes that the other party was an enemy, he would not hesitate to take action.
"My name is Isabella."
"As for the secret investigation, it was purely coincidental."
"That ancient red dragon was originally my prey..."
Isabella explained, not wanting to start a conflict with Rennes for no reason, previously, this ancient red dragon was attracted to her beauty and attempted to forcefully possess her.
As a result, she severely injured it in return.
If he hadn't run fast, that ancient red dragon would have died by her hands long ago, and after spending a lot of time investigating and chasing after it.
Who would have thought that this ancient red dragon had already been killed by Rennes.
"I see."
Upon hearing this, Rennes nodded slightly, the lava dragon monster had mentioned before that this ancient red dragon had serious injuries when it seized its territory.
This woman's statement completely matched with that, so the misunderstanding was resolved.
After confirming that this woman was not an enemy, Rennes immediately put down his weapon.
No longer assuming an aggressive posture.
After all, this woman was able to defeat and severely injure the ancient red dragon in its prime.
It was enough to show her formidable strength, he didn't want to offend such a powerful person for no reason.
After the atmosphere eased, the two of them engaged in some communication.
They exchanged names and backgrounds, when Rennes learned about Isabella's background, he was also surprised.
He didn't expect this hot and mysterious woman, who didn't look like a queen at all, to actually be the Empress of the Andri Empire.
The Andri Empire and the Kukarn Empire were both part of the five great human empires.
However, in terms of national strength, the Andri Empire was much stronger than the Kukarn Empire where he was from.
Moreover, based on the intelligence he had collected before, due to the two empires' territories being adjacent, there are some disputes over interests.
So the relationship between the Andri Empire and the Kukarn Empire was not very good, there have been many battles between the two empires, the grudges run deep.
"Rennes, with your strength, it's too much of a waste for you to be a duke in the Kukarn Empire."
"I don't know if you're interested in joining the Andri Empire. I can promise you a noble title and a piece of land as your territory." (I mean isn't it the same treatment??)
"I can even marry the best princess of the royal family to you..."
After learning that Rennes is the newly appointed duke of the Kukarn Empire, Isabella's eyes lit up and she couldn't help but try to win him over.
She had just witnessed Rennes killing an ancient red dragon, she knew that Rennes had extraordinary combat power and possessed the ability to pause time.
If she could win this man over to the Andri Empire, it would weaken the Kukarn Empire while greatly enhancing the Andri Empire's strength, it could be said killing two birds with one stone.
Upon hearing this, Rennes was also somewhat shocked, he never expected, that Her Majesty the Empress would directly recruit him, a potential high-ranking noble of a hostile empire.
However, to be honest, the conditions offered by her were indeed very generous.
Promising to confer a noble title, a province as territory, and marrying the best princess of the imperial family to him, so these conditions did make him somewhat tempted.
However, upon careful consideration, Rennes ultimately did not agree.
After all, he only had a superficial encounter with this empress.
Without knowing the other party's character, he maintained a skeptical attitude towards her words.
Moreover, the Kukarn Empire had treated him fairly well, so there was no need to change sides for no reason.
Besides, if he were to join the Andri Empire with the Habsburg family, it might not necessarily lead to better development for him.
On the contrary, he might face rejection from internal forces within the Andri Empire.
