Chapter 264 Strengthening treasures and privatizing the underground world (4200 words, two chapters in one)

Lord's mansion, front yard.

"Master, the casualties this time have been counted."

"Five squads of Mummy Guardians were killed, three squads of Bandage Mummy were killed, two squads of Sand Archers were killed, two squads of rare Ax of the Dead were killed, and three Skeleton Demons were killed."

"In this war, a total of 14 squadrons were killed."

After hearing Gray's report, Richard's expression did not change much as he was looking at the bright moon.

An army of tens of thousands of kobolds attacked the city with such mighty momentum.

But in such a crazy attack, only a few hundred people were killed in Twilight City.

After calculation, the battle damage ratio reached an exaggerated one hundred to one.

This achievement can be called brilliant.

Among them, the biggest contributor, in addition to the geographical advantages attached to the city wall, is the powerful combat effectiveness of the A-level heroes and the desertification skills possessed by the army.

There is no doubt about the strength of the A-level heroes. With the combat power of one thousand, and with the cooperation of the army, they forcibly blocked the enemy's offensive.

The desertification skill protects a large number of units that are bound to die when the enemy does not have a spellcasting legion.

It has become an invincible skill that the opponent cannot crack.

The army of Twilight City has a characteristic that other armies do not have - only those killed in battle, not injured.

Because of the existence of desertification, even if injured soldiers are missing arms and legs, as long as they are not killed in battle, they can start desertification for repair after the war.

This resulted in Richard lamenting the overbearing talent of his lord every time he counted casualties.

The city of dusk has developed so well, and half of the credit must be based on the magical skill of desert transformation.

He took back his scattered thoughts and said seriously.

"Gray, although there were not many casualties this time, many problems were exposed."

"The archers' shooting coverage is not enough, the army's front-to-back connection is insufficient, and the various arms' coordination in the city defense battle is stiff. All these require a few of you heroes to improve."

Richard's tone was serious.

"Although the alchemy artillery and the hurricane arrow tower are not in use this time, and our strength has not been exerted to the extreme, everyone must realize this."

"Our defense methods and military arrangements need to be re-optimized."

Fighting while stationed at the city wall sounds simple, but it is like a precise instrument.

Once there is a problem in one link, the whole will be affected.

In this war, he saw too many shortcomings.

Gray immediately held up his chest.

"Master, we will adjust immediately and will never let you down."

Richard nodded slightly and said no more.

After Gray left in a hurry, he looked up at the bright moon in the sky, thinking a lot.

Twilight City faces countless challenges.

The hostility of the Kobold God, the upcoming dungeon, and even the Death Desert will be connected to another dimension in the future. Everything is not that simple.

In addition, there is a kingdom of God waiting for him to explore in the place where the rules are broken, and there is a body of the god hidden in it.

Previously, there was a dungeon where a powerful hero, the Dark Lord, was imprisoned at the place where the dragon hero Alves died.

As long as you capture that dungeon, you can get the imprisoned hero.

The gray dwarves, one of the overlords of the underground world he regarded as forbidden, were also eyeing him and were trying to think of ways to deal with him.

In addition, he has yet to explore the ancient ruins of the remaining 8 bronze doors - the Shining Mage Tower.

I had planned to go to Solan City, where the Luanwei Flower Merchant Guild is located, but I never took the time.

Now we still need to find ways to protect the agricultural area to avoid being destroyed in the future

Thinking of these scattered things, Richard couldn't help but feel a little dizzy.

After taking a few deep breaths, my thoughts returned to clarity.

The biggest crisis now is the threat posed by the kobold god.

It is true that the opponent was repulsed this time, but when he comes next time, he will definitely bring an extra powerful army and be better prepared.

"You must get enough benefits when entering the dungeon this time."

"It's best to prepare a few big killer weapons that can resist the coming of gods."

Richard gradually had an idea.

Points can be exchanged for various rare equipment. As long as you get enough benefits in the dungeon, you may not be unable to deal with the Kobold God.

Although the other party is a god and has a huge number of believers.

But Twilight City is not an easy place to deal with.

It would never be his choice to retreat.

Just as he was thinking about countermeasures, in the hall, two maids walked out of the door with hurried steps and pale faces.

"Lord, Miss Emerelda fainted!"

Richard turned around sharply.

"What happened?"

The two maids were almost crying and said hurriedly.

"Miss Emerelda suddenly became very weak just after the evil god appeared."

"I couldn't hold on any longer and fainted. I and we don't know what happened."

Seeing the two people in such panic, Richard walked quickly inside without saying anything more.

These days, he really likes the obedient and obedient Emilida, who was once a demigod.

It really feels like treating her like a daughter.

Concerned about the other party's memory problems, he was not in a hurry to let this little centaur upgrade his level.

I plan to raise her for a while to allow her to establish a sufficient emotional bond with Twilight City, and then improve the other party's strength.

In this way, even if the other party recovers his memory, he will not say that he has any resentment or dissatisfaction with Twilight City.

Emerilda, a little pony with the potential to reach boss level, has an unlimited future.

He didn't want anything to go wrong.

On the second floor, enter the room.

Upon entering, the little centaur was lying on his side on the carpet, sleeping.

After Richard sensed that his vitality had not changed much, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

Open the properties panel, and there is a special status on the other party's status bar——

His soul was stimulated by some force and he fell into a coma.

"Is this caused by the kobold god? That divine power?"

Richard's face looked a little ugly. That dog-head was bullying his daughter, right?

Emerelda's soul was traumatized twice. The first time was caused by the suppression of the gods in the place where the rules were broken.

The second time was caused by the collapse of the Rule-Broken Land.

Judging from its attributes, it shouldn't be life-threatening. The only thing that made him hesitate was whether the other party would have any sequelae.

"Go and fetch Xina."

"Yes, my lord."

Not long after the maid left, Hina entered the room in a hurry, feeling a little nervous.

Seeing that the sleeping Emerelda was not in danger, she sighed softly.

Ever since she got most of his memories, she felt particularly sorry for this miserable little guy.

"Xina, you take time to watch over Emerilda these days. I'm worried that there will be some health problems with her this time."

Sheena nodded.

"As it should be."

He asked.

"Are you leaving the territory?"

Richard turned his head and glanced out the window.

Under the moonlight, the towering hurricane arrow tower was covered with a layer of silver light, which was particularly conspicuous.

"Our enemies are very fierce, and Twilight City needs a stronger army."

"I want to go to the underworld again."

As he spoke, he seemed to have thought of something, and turned back to stare at Hina.

"Have the Krina responded to you?"

Because of the Kobold God incident, Xina once asked her people for help.

However, the kobold army arrived so quickly that the Krina tribe had not heard any news that the other party had appeared.

Xina's eyes softened as she looked at the heroic young man in front of her who was full of heart-warming charm.

The tone was firm.

"You will definitely receive the news tomorrow at the latest."

Richard nodded, but didn't say anything else.

He has never pinned the fate of Twilight City on others, and whether the Krina tribe comes or not will not affect his plan.

However, if the other party does not come, then there will be no heroes of the Diguai Krina tribe. This would be a pity.

While the two were talking, a sound of footsteps suddenly came from the door, interrupting Richard's thoughts.

Turning around, he looked at the person coming.

"Karoo, are the residents calmed down?"

Gru, who was particularly excited, glanced at Emerelda, made sure that she was fine, and said with a smile.

"Those guys don't need comfort, they are more excited than anyone else"

Their lord is blocking the arrival of the gods.

One can imagine the excitement among the residents for this unprecedented achievement.

After Kalu finished speaking, he hesitantly brought up another topic.

"Sir, the Miss Weier you brought back last time has performed very well in handling government affairs these days."

"I wonder if I could ask her to be my assistant."

Vale?

Richard narrowed his eyes.

Is he the B-level internal affairs hero who was found among the refugees trapped in the Broken Temple a few days ago?

When he went to bring the other party back, he obtained the Quicksand Land from the Broken Temple, and also discovered the underground prison where the Dark Lord was imprisoned.

Alves were also hunted here.

He was deeply impressed by that domestic hero with an exceptionally outstanding temperament.

Listening to Kalu's words, this B-level hero has obviously made great achievements.

"You think this matter can't be arranged. It's a confidential matter, so we can't leave it to her for the time being."

Karu nodded.

"Yes, sir, I know it well."

Richard said nothing more.

"I'm going to the underground world again soon, please worry."

As he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a heat in his chest.

He immediately reached out and took out the hot object, the statue of the ancient god.

This is?

Richard had some doubts in his eyes.

Doesn’t it take three weeks for the divine soul to awaken?

Just when I was about to explore its properties.

Suddenly, a white stream of light floated from the statue.

It surged directly into the air and began to condense rapidly.

After the white light dissipated, a hollow crystal ball engraved with mysterious patterns appeared in front of him.

The moment the crystal ball appeared, the surrounding space rippled like water waves.

Richard narrowed his eyes.

This is a crystal ball protected by twelve crystals in the middle of a place where the rules are broken.

It was previously swallowed into the inner space by the statue of the ancient god, sleeping with the divine soul.

Why did this suddenly come out?

After concentrating on perception, he found that this hollow crystal ball looked rich in energy, but it had become depleted inside.

The energy contained is no longer as hot as the sun before.

And if you look closely, you can also find subtle cracks on the surface. Although they are not obvious, they are enough to explain the changes.

Open the properties panel.

Space Crystal

Level: Special

Condition: Severely damaged (will shatter in three hours)

Features: It can strengthen a space treasure below 3 stars to raise it to one level, or strengthen a 4-star space treasure.

Introduction: It was originally a crystal that contained huge energy, but now most of the energy has been swallowed up.

After Li Cha looked at it several times, he felt a little surprised in his eyes.

A statue of an ancient god devoured most of its power. How could it still have such powerful characteristics? !

It's a bit awesome to be able to upgrade a 3-star or lower treasure by one level. Using a 3-star item can directly turn it into a 4-star item.

If you don't want to upgrade, you can also use it to strengthen 4-star treasures.

This treasure is worth a lot of money.

But

After Li Cha took a look at the attributes, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

This thing can only be used on space treasures, and it will collapse after three hours.

This means that it is destined to be impossible to keep and can only be used as soon as possible. If it expires, it will be gone.

He only has one space treasure in his hand.

The two-way portal obtained from the Scarlet Council Treasure House in the last copy.

Thinking of this, Richard did not hesitate and took out the treasure piled in the corner of the system space.

Two-way portal

Rating: 4 stars

Features: A pair of teleportation gates that can be opened in both directions can be placed within 50 kilometers.

Introduction: An extremely rare treasure.

He originally planned to place one end of this treasure in the Twilight City and the other end at the entrance to the underground world.

Connect the Twilight City to the Underworld.

But later measurements revealed that the City of Twilight is more than 80 kilometers away from the passage to the underground world.

The 50 kilometers of the two-way portal is obviously not enough.

Richard had no choice but to put it on hold for the time being.

If it is strengthened and the distance between the two-way portal can be increased, it will not be a loss.

The underground world is a place of treasures.

This time he obtained 40 million units of resources, which made him full in one go.

It also made him realize more deeply the huge wealth contained in it.

If you invest in this, you will definitely not lose money.

Thinking of this, Richard did not hesitate.

He only had this one treasure, and it would be wasted if he didn't use it.

Moreover, the space crystal will collapse after three hours, and it will be useless to keep it.

Directly choose to strengthen the two-way portal.

Click~

The hollow crystal ball shattered directly and turned into pieces of crystal the size of a fingernail that merged into the mini arch that was half the size of a palm in his hand.

After the influx of majestic energy, a large number of inscriptions appeared on the mini arch.

The scent is particularly noticeable.

After a dozen breaths, as the light dissipated, the system sounded a prompt.

"Ding~ The two-way portal has been strengthened."

Richard opened the properties panel with some anticipation.

Two-way portal

Rating: 4 stars

Features: A pair of teleportation gates that can be opened in both directions can be placed within 100 kilometers.

Introduction: An extremely rare treasure.

Hahaha, it increased from 50 kilometers to 100 kilometers.

This time the improvement is directly doubled.

Now I feel comfortable.

Looking at the portal with energy surging in his hand, he didn't stay in the house at the moment.

He went straight out of the city and arrived at the Land of Quicksand. Not far from where the ancient divine tree was stationed, a two-way portal was placed.

The mini arch in his hand turned into a stream of light and fell to the ground. In an instant, a huge arch formed in front of his eyes.

The arch is 10 meters high and about 6 meters wide.

It was like a water curtain condensed in the middle, glowing with a faint white fluorescence.

If you reach out and touch it, you can feel obvious resistance.

Another portal needs to be placed to pass through here.

Richard was in a good mood when he saw this.

No hesitation either.

After returning to Twilight City, he immediately took off with the Skeleton Blood Dragon and all the Dark Gargoyle Legion, heading directly to the underground passage.

Arriving at the entrance of the underground passage and controlling the gravel, the buried passage was revealed again.

After entering the underground passage for more than 20 kilometers, Richard found a wider area and directly placed another portal.

After placing it, Richard passed through the portal directly.

The next second, he appeared in the land of quicksand.

Seeing the ancient divine tree in front of him, Richard laughed.

After returning to the underground passage from the two-way portal, I felt particularly happy.

He glanced at the troops around him, said nothing, and returned to the exit.

Then he controlled the sand and gravel to sweep around the rocks.

With rumbles, the cave continued to collapse. Soon, the 20-kilometer passage outside was completely blocked by the series of collapses.

So far.

He no longer has to worry about outsiders discovering this underground world.

There is no need to worry about life in the underground world appearing on the surface.

The exit on the other side of the two-way portal is guarded by the ancient tree of evil, and it is also in the land of quicksand.

If the beings in the underground world want to escape, they must first break through the suppression of this boss.

In the land of quicksand, trying to shake the ancient tree of evil spirits. Thinking about the difficulty of this can make people despair.

From now on, this underground world has completely become Richard's private property. As long as he can develop it, everything here will belong to him. (End of chapter)
