Chapter 347 Huge Harvest, Private Underground World (4200 words)
Life outside cannot see what is in the darkness, from a distance.
All that could be seen was that endless darkness suddenly enveloped the earth.
Then, a shrill scream came from inside, as if there was an extremely terrifying monster in the darkness.
Just when everyone was in shock and confusion, the huge dark field suddenly became silent.
There was no movement.
Those gray dwarves who were lucky enough not to be shrouded in darkness were frightened to death.
Not even daring to look further, he ran outside like crazy.
The darkness that enveloped the earth lasted for less than three minutes before quietly fading away.
Light covers the earth again.
When everyone saw this, they immediately stood on tiptoes and looked at the area with wide eyes.
Want to know what happened just now.
But after they saw it clearly, their curiosity turned into fear, and their breathing became rapid involuntarily.
I saw huge ruins.
With the undead dragon burning with blood-colored light as the center, it was surrounded by hundreds of meters.
Countless gray dwarves seemed to have been crushed by boulders, and their bodies were mangled.
Even those tenacious blood-sewed monsters have become cold corpses at this moment.
As far as the eye could see, in the area that had just been shrouded in darkness, there was no life left that could move.
This scene makes people feel chilly in their hearts.
This was all done by the surface lord. How much power did the other party control?
Here, there is at least one and a half legions of gray dwarves. How many minutes have it been?
When they looked up at the figure in the sky, an overwhelming fear suddenly arose in their minds.
The impact of this scene coupled with the power of the Dark Valkyrie who had just killed the level 19 World Destroyer with one strike, Richard, in the eyes of all the dungeon beings, seemed like a god coming to the world at this moment.
"Ding~ You killed the gray dwarf chief (level 15) under the watchful eyes of a large number of dungeon lives, and cleared half a legion of gray dwarf troops. You gained 1 point of underground world legend, and you gained 200,000 experience points. .”
"Ding~ The relationship between Bloodhoof City and Twilight City has been upgraded to reverence."
"Ding~Sel Bloodhoof's affection for you has been elevated to worship."
A series of system prompts sounded, announcing the final outcome of the Bloodhoof City defense battle.
Richard recovered his mind and was a little surprised.
He also didn't expect that the combination of the two skills of Darkness Descending and Dominance of Darkness would be so powerful.
The army shrouded in darkness did not even have a chance to escape.
It is indeed a legendary equipment, awesome.
I really don’t know how powerful the last skill that can only be activated by gathering a three-piece set will be.
While thinking, he drove Alves to land on the ground.
He turned over and strode to the top of Bloodhoof City.
Before he could speak, Serge Bloodhoof, the owner of Bloodhoof City, shouted excitedly with his face flushed.
"Lord Richard, we won!! Praise you!! Praise the Twilight City!! Praise the gods!!"
The gray dwarf chief was dead, and most of the remaining gray dwarf leaders had been annihilated.
Even if there are still deserters, it will no longer affect the overall situation.
Next, it’s time for Bloodhoof City to rule the underground world
Richard looked at the excited Serge and smiled.
"Now is not the time to celebrate."
"We must occupy the main gray dwarf city as soon as possible and defeat all other gray dwarf cities that still have resistance."
"The follow-up army from Twilight City will arrive soon. Sel, Bloodhoof City is responsible for cooperating."
He said with a faint look in his eyes.
"Twilight City has no intention of occupying the underground world. After the gray dwarves were annihilated, Bloodhoof City became the master of the underground world."
"However, I want the main city of the gray dwarves."
"I want to reintegrate the gray dwarves' alchemy technology so that the City of Twilight can use it."
"In the future, the underground world will become a world without war."
"Everyone can have enough to eat, drink clean water, and be in a safe environment."
"Bloodhoof City must shoulder this important responsibility."
Richard did not hide anything and told the other party his inner thoughts.
The underground world will be the logistics base of Twilight City in the future.
For Twilight City, the cost of directly ruling this chaotic land is too high.
Bloodhoof City can spread this cost and can perfectly serve as his agent.
And with the rapid increase in Twilight City's strength, he does not need to do anything, and the underground world will gradually be conquered by Twilight City.
Until I can no longer have any second thoughts, I will do things for him obediently.
Strength is an eternal truth.
After Serge received Richard's assurance, the last worries in his heart disappeared.
These words, spoken when he first entered the underground world and repeated now, have completely different effects.
The current Twilight City has the ability to flatten Bloodhoof City altogether.
But the other party still maintained his original attitude, which was enough to reassure him.
Moreover, the Twilight City really has different intentions. It only needs to wait until the gray dwarves break through the Bloodhoof City before reappearing, and they can also directly rule the underground world.
The gray dwarves who besieged Bloodhoof City were defeated again, and the level 19 monster they had researched and created was killed with one sword. The news that most of the remaining troops were killed by the surface lord alone in the war swept through the entire underground like a whirlwind. world.
The first reaction of all the dungeon beings who heard the news was that they didn't believe it. All the surface lords had been killed? How could it be possible to still help Bloodhoof City? Can people still die and be resurrected?
But after asking for confirmation again and again, and getting a positive response, I felt extremely complicated.
There's nothing better than a hero from the myths and legends of the Dungeon Clan who can destroy thousands of armies with one man, and then come with force at the last moment, right?
What makes them feel even more complicated is that the defeat of the gray dwarves will determine the future ruler of the underground world.
Who could have expected that the situation would change so quickly.
And among the complex emotions of many races.
The City of Twilight and Bloodhoof City launched the final offensive against the remnants of the gray dwarves
On September 6th, after getting rid of the gray dwarves attacking the city.
Richard personally led 12 teams of skeleton blood dragons, 6 teams of stone statues of the dead, and 20 teams of axes of the dead and dark gargoyles, and began to march towards the main city of the gray dwarves.
He did not go straight to Huanglong, but pushed straight through in an upright manner.
Wherever they passed, all gray dwarf cities were captured.
While harvesting a large amount of wealth, under his command, Brown, a 12th-level special alchemist, participated in the work of collecting prisoners after the war, and took in a large number of gray dwarves who mastered alchemy skills.
People and goods get both.
In September, more than 10 gray dwarf cities were captured in three consecutive days.
A huge amount of wealth was collected by Twilight City.
In the end, too many cities were captured, and Bloodhoof City, which cooperated with Twilight City, could no longer send anyone to garrison the city because of too few troops.
In the end, the problem was solved by recruiting several tribes that had good relations with Bloodhoof City and relying on the other party's army to assist in defense.
On September 13, Richard and the excited Serge pushed all the way and arrived at the main city of the gray dwarves.
Furnace City.
This main city of the gray dwarves is built on a towering mountain.
The mountain was used as a city wall, and a large number of alchemy cannons were placed inside.
The defense was terrifying to the extreme.
But Richard did not let the gray dwarves' defense work, and once again used the two killer weapons of Darkness and Dominate Darkness.
Directly clear out the gray dwarf troops near the city wall.
The strong defense of Furnace City failed to last for 10 minutes
September 14th.
After capturing the main city of the gray dwarves, it took Richard and his army a whole day to completely capture the Furnace City, which was built in the mountains and had countless secret passages dug.
The gray dwarves hiding in the hidden passage were wiped out.
The City of Twilight shows no mercy to the gray dwarf army, killing them when necessary.
But for the gray dwarves with special skills in the city, they directly gathered the prisoners and handed them over to Brown for management.
These valuable talents are an important labor force for the development of alchemical technology
After the main city of the gray dwarves was occupied by the City of Twilight, it was completely announced that the gray dwarves, the former overlord, had fallen from the altar.
Later, Richard focused on the main city of the gray dwarves.
Let the army attack the surrounding areas and bring those gray dwarf cities that have not yet been occupied into the territory.
The remaining gray dwarves were originally very afraid of being liquidated. At first, they even fled with their property.
But later it was discovered that Brown, a super alchemist who once had great prestige in the main city of the gray dwarves, was actually a member of the Twilight City.
And he is still presiding over the reception of prisoners.
At present, many gray dwarves took the initiative to join Brown's disciples.
This race with no moral integrity, any loyalty or sacrificing one’s life for one’s country, are all farts to them
How can it be better to be alive than to be dead?
So what Richard didn't expect was that after Brown came forward, the recovery of the gray dwarves accelerated.
September 18th.
It took nearly half a month.
The gray dwarves who had ruled half of the underground world for hundreds of years were completely emptied.
All the cities previously occupied by the gray dwarves were garrisoned by Bloodhoof City.
Later, Bloodhoof City even ran out of manpower to recruit other tribes, and had to temporarily let the tribes near the city garrison and maintain public order.
Richard had no interest at all in occupying these cities whose wealth had been harvested.
Leave it all to Bloodhoof City.
Even if you want to manage the current population of Twilight City, you are powerless.
For him, supporting Bloodhoof City was countless times more worry-free than going into battle himself.
Furnace City, City Lord’s Mansion.
In the splendid main hall, Richard sat on a golden throne inlaid with various gems, looking at the list of loot in his hand with interest.
After annihilating the gray dwarves, it can be regarded as capturing a high-level map.
The strength possessed by gray dwarves is no worse than that of orcs faced by steamed bun lovers.
After the war, something will be gained.
After checking the gray dwarf's accumulation for who knows how many years, he was extremely happy with the wealth he obtained.
While he was thinking, a sound of footsteps entered the hall.
It looks particularly crisp in the empty hall.
He turned around and saw the other party's figure clearly, and couldn't help but ask with interest.
"Gray, have you discovered anything new?"
Gray, the mummy hero, had a rare tone of excitement.
"Master, in the deepest part of the main city, the army found a treasure house hidden in the rocks, and more than 30,000 units of gems were found in it!"
"This is the list that was just updated"
Richard closed the list in his hand and nodded with satisfaction.
"Report the latest list!"
"Yes!"
Gray's hollow voice sounded.
"The first is the rare resources - a total of 60,000 units of gems, 70,000 units of mercury, 40,000 units of crystals, and 30,000 units of sulfur were found."
"In order to create a level 19 Destroyer, the gray dwarves consumed most of their rare resource inventory, so this data is not much."
"General resources have not yet been calculated, and are expected to exceed 50 million units."
"30 million units of food, these resources have been used to support the reconstruction of Bloodhoof City."
"Unit nests - 215 elite level, 78 rare level, 21 rare level, and 3 brilliant level."
When Gray said this, Richard was filled with emotion.
As expected, a man is not rich without windfall, and a horse is not fat without night grass.
The total of these resources, converted into rare resources, is close to 200 million units.
All 4 Brilliant level troop nests can be promoted to Crown level.
The rewards for capturing high-level maps and annihilating a race are indeed rich.
It seems that the plan of using void sandworms to leave the Death Desert to cause trouble can indeed be tried in the future
Gray's report continued.
"In addition, the harvest in terms of talents is also very rich - 1 master alchemist, 9 special alchemists, 232 senior alchemists, and more than 1,200 intermediate and low-level alchemists combined."
"Brown said that with the addition of these top talents, the alchemy department can quickly get on the right track, and it will not be long before it can provide strong support for Twilight City."
The smile on Richard's face became even brighter.
The gray dwarf's talent for alchemy was almost maxed out, and there were so many talents that he was dazzled.
The biggest surprise was the master alchemist.
Special level is already extremely difficult, and you want to advance from special level to master level.
You have to be a genius.
The other party only broke through to the master level because he created a level 19 world destroyer.
This is top talent coming out of the woodwork.
His beloved general, the pearl of the Twilight City, Andele, had just recently become a top-level blacksmith under the efforts of the Twilight City.
One can imagine the gold content of the master level.
With this alchemist, Twilight City will have enough confidence to invest in alchemy-related projects in the future.
"Military supplies, 3-star giant mouth artillery - 120 pieces, 50,000 alchemical bombs, 300,000 units of alchemical gunpowder."
"Twelve 4-star explosive artillery pieces, and 1,500 matching alchemical bombs."
"12 pieces of strategic equipment are 1-star, 6 are 2-star, and 4 are 3-star."
At this point, Gray finally stopped and then handed him the latest list.
After Richard took it, he looked at it carefully several times.
Finally satisfied.
These newly captured alchemy artillery can greatly increase the defense strength of Twilight City.
The one-armed blacksmith, after being given extraordinary skills by him, was already researching advanced technology.
Next, after the technology upgrade is completed, Twilight City can be upgraded to Midtown.
After the city expanded, more than two hundred alchemical cannons were placed on the city wall.
That scene will definitely be cool.
This wave can definitely be called a sudden fortune!
Using all the gains from this time will definitely increase the strength of Twilight City by a large margin.
He suppressed his inner excitement and looked at the resources above.
The Dark Gargoyle and the Ax of the Dead can only be combined into the Stone Statue of the Dead when they are upgraded to Brilliant. Now that you have the resources, you can upgrade this powerful unit first.
This powerful unit is already the ace of Twilight City and must be vigorously supported.
Although the material harvest this time was already amazing, what mattered most to Richard was that from now on, the underground world completely belonged to him.
From now on, this land will become his personal property.
Next, he can develop the underground world however he wants.
And unlike Twilight City, the underground world has a harsh natural environment.
But there are many intelligent life forms, and they have a strong foundation.
Such a large area of land and millions of intelligent beings will be controlled by him.
One thought can change the fate of countless people.
That feeling is hard to describe. (End of chapter)
