Chapter 213 Return to Twilight City
In the underground passage, Gunter, who was directing the cavemen to widen the cave, suddenly turned his head and looked at the entrance of the cave.
The next moment.
Huhu~
A skeletal blood dragon with red bones flew into the cave.
Each of these undead dragons was carrying wooden boxes tied with chains. Judging from their weight, it seemed that there were many precious treasures hidden inside.
The largest skeletal blood dragon is particularly conspicuous in its white robe with gold edges.
Gunter saluted respectfully.
"Master."
Richard turned around and looked around. When he saw that there was no accident, he nodded slightly.
"Gunt, the construction of the base is temporarily suspended."
"You immediately select 10 commanders from the cavemen and let them each manage three squadrons of cavemen."
"At the same time, leave the bloody mummy to guard them."
Gunter didn't hesitate at all and began to select suitable candidates.
He originally wanted to establish an underground base in the passage to strengthen his influence on the underground world.
But after capturing the gray dwarf city, he found that his ideas seemed a bit conservative.
The strength of the gray dwarves was not as exaggerated as he thought.
In other words, Twilight City is more powerful than he expected.
Not to mention the powerful killer weapon of the Extraordinary Hunter, just a few A-level heroes and the army of Twilight City are enough to capture a city with a complete guard force.
In this situation, it is somewhat unnecessary to build an underground base.
The gray dwarves have already built a ready-made building for him, but he still doesn't live in it. This is a bit disrespectful, and he is sorry for their hospitality.
As for safety issues, a war fortress can be built on the surface in the later stage to cut off the connection between the surface and the underground, so that the underground world is completely in the hands of Twilight City.
Before long, Gunter selected 10 cavemen.
Richard didn't waste much time and waited for the other party to arrange everything before letting all the troops return.
Then he went directly to the depths of the passage.
Brown, the special-level dungeon alchemist, sat on the back of a skeletal blood dragon with several gray dwarf apprentices.
My mood was very complicated at this time.
He never imagined that he would experience the feeling of sitting at home and having trouble come from heaven.
He originally thought that being driven out of the Furnace City by that damn gray dwarf chief would be bad enough.
Now, he no longer even has his only residence, and has to go to an unknown surface territory.
Quite heartbroken.
But when he saw that heroic figure, he suddenly stopped.
The god of the gray dwarves is above.
He still wants to live a few more years.
Several gray dwarf apprentices spoke in low voices out of fear and curiosity.
"Master Brown, what does the surface of the earth look like? Is it really like the legend, with food and clean water everywhere?"
"Will we be killed by that human lord?"
"Lord Brown."
After hearing a series of questions, Brown pretended to be disdainful to answer and ignored them.
How does he know what the surface of the earth looks like? Has he been there?
However, legend has it that the surface of the earth is ten thousand times richer than the underground world.
As I listened, I felt a sense of uneasy anticipation rising in my heart.
I wonder if the human territory called Twilight City will be the same as the legend?
The God of Gray Dwarves, I hope you can bless your humble believer this time, otherwise I will convert to the God of Forging in the future!
Because most of them are ground troops, the army moves very slowly.
Seeing this, Richard directly asked Gunter and Gray to stay and lead the team.
He took the skeletal blood dragon and the boxes of loot he got from the gray dwarf city, and returned to the City of Twilight first.
After getting used to the extreme speed of flight, it was really torture for him to drive slowly.
"The Lord is back!"
With an exclamation, the entire Twilight City boiled.
When Richard heard the cheers below, the corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily.
So long.
He has already regarded Twilight City as his home.
Every time I come back from a trip, there is a special feeling.
This is a territory he established himself, which gives him a particularly sense of accomplishment.
The skeletal blood dragon slowly landed in the open space in front of the lord's mansion amid the cheers of the residents below.
Bangdang~
One huge box after another made a crisp metallic collision sound.
Richard finally drove Alves to the ground slowly.
The huge body with a wingspan of more than 30 meters made everyone feel unspeakable oppression.
The dragon power he inadvertently released made the residents feel as if a huge boulder weighing a thousand kilograms was pressed on their chests.
Even breathing becomes difficult.
But despite this, residents still feel that this giant dragon is a supporting role.
Their lord, their lord, shines with a radiance that no one can cover.
His unique superior temperament makes Richard dazzling like a star in the dark night.
It seems that wherever he is, it is the center of the world.
The domineering Alves became his foil at this moment.
Looking up from a resident's perspective, behind Richard was a blue sky with no clouds in sight.
Below, there is an undead dragon burning with bloody flames. In the endless bloody light, his existence becomes more and more extraordinary.
This scene looks like an ancient mural passed down on the wall of a certain church.
"Lord."
"Good day, my lord"
"."
After the residents came to their senses, they immediately raised their chests and bowed.
The attitude is respectful and humble, and the eyes are full of passion.
Richard turned his head and glanced around.
The atmosphere is good, and this situation seems particularly suitable to say a few words.
After thinking for a while, he said loudly.
"Our armies have just conquered a powerful underground city."
"A large amount of treasures and alchemical artillery were seized."
"This is a victory for the army and a victory for each of us!"
"The army tells everyone with victory after victory that the glory of the Twilight City is rising."
"My people, remember today, in the future, you will see more glory and hear more trumpets of victory!"
"The city at dusk will surely become a shining star in the desert!"
The atmosphere is here, whatever you say is right.
The moment the words fell, huge cheers sounded.
Richard didn't say anything more.
He turned over and asked the mummy guardians around him to carry all the boxes brought back by the skeleton blood dragon into the lord's mansion.
Looking at the box that only a few people could lift, a satisfied smile immediately appeared on his face.
He never imagined that he could get such a big harvest in that city.
"Lord Richard."
A sudden voice from behind interrupted his thoughts.
Turning around, he saw a wrinkled Karu coming in a hurry. He saluted and said excitedly.
"Have you found the underground world?"
Richard looked at the excited Karu and was in a very good mood.
Briefly told him what happened in the underground world.
Finally, he signaled to a few gray dwarves who had just gotten off the back of the skeletal blood dragon and were extremely uncomfortable with being looked at like monkeys by the residents.
"The gray dwarf who was born with a disabled arm is an alchemist and has considerable attainments in alchemical artillery and alchemical bombs."
"You arrange them."
"In addition, I have established a cooperative relationship with Bloodhoof City, and I will definitely conduct long-term trade with them in the future."
"You have to resolve the matter of the food workshop and brewery as soon as possible. I need qualified candidates to become heroes."
The three hero certificates in his hand have not been used yet, which makes him quite depressed.
In the future, if Twilight City wants to gain more benefits from trade, it must have products that can be sold.
Although there are currently yellow sand robes, the production of this thing is limited. Just selling it to the Luanwei Flower Merchant Guild is in short supply.
Not to mention anything else.
Kalu did not show any troubled expression this time, but instead smiled brightly.
"Sir Richard, the results of these two days of seminars and literacy classes have been very good. We have selected 5 talents with good talents."
"Perhaps our plan can be started."
Are seminars and all-staff literacy programs effective?
Richard's eyes lit up.
"Call them over here, I'll take care of them."
