717 Chapter 453: Spider’s Divine Power, Harvest After the Battle [3/3]
“We need to use all the power we can. Our enemy is supremely mighty.”
Popov looked deeply at Richard.
Then, the Tower race patriarch slowly and respectfully bowed to him.
“Lord Richard, the Tower race will always remember your sacrifice.”
Richard was now the Tower race’s savior, the only one who could save them.
Richard looked into its eyes.
“I won’t let you down.”
Richard finished his words, and the relationship between the two advanced.
They quickly cleaned the battlefield up. They found nothing in the ruined spider churches.
Richard didn’t linger. He had his troops spread out and cleared out everything within a few dozen kilometers.
He followed Popov back to the village.
Richard didn’t prevent the players at their entrance to the village after their request.
The two returned to the hall where the Tower race placed the stone statue.
But Richard saw several figures appear at the door before he could enter the room.
These ‘little fellows’ were three to four meters tall. Tenderness filled their faces. Curiosity engulfed their eyes as they sized him up.
Richard looked around, and more than a hundred people were probably in the house.
This scene stunned Richard.
These were the remaining members of the Tower race that Popov had mentioned.
He no longer wondered there were no Tower race warriors on the battlefield. Only Popov fought.
There were only these little fellows in the entire race aside from Popov.
The mark of childish expression in their eyes could not reach the level of a battle soldier, although they were more gargantuan than humans.
‘The Tower race could still send hundreds of people to participate in the final battle because they wanted these little fellows to wear armor and fight, right?’
Richard was silent.
In the final battle, there was indeed nothing left to hold back. The system would resurrect them if they won. They could no longer return if they lost.
It was better to leave them to lose everything in their ignorance than fall on the road to charge.
Popov looked at Richard’s expression and immediately understood what he thought.
The Tower race patriarch smiled and shook his head.
“Lord Richard, you don’t have to… All the people of the Tower race had died to protect this world.”
“We are not cowards!
“This is the glory of the Tower race!”
It spoke and turned to look at the little fellows around.
“It’s safe now. Go and take out the armor and weapons in the warehouse. Find something that fits you… The final battle is not far away.”
Popov released a long sigh. The Tower race patriarch stepped into the hall afterward.
To Richard’s surprise, the Tower race’s little fellows didn’t ask questions but made way for their race leader.
Everyone cupped their chests and bowed to Popov!
This scene somehow moved Richard.
He recalled his Twilight City residents.
His residents would do the same if Twilight City ran out of food one day. They would sacrifice themselves to protect the city.
Richard shook his head and no longer thought about it. He followed Popov into the stone statue hall.
He felt something odd in his heart again.
It was like these ice-cold stone statues transformed into living towers. They stared and begged at Richard!
Popov walked to an inconspicuous corner and hugged a six-meter-tall giant stone statue to the front of the vast table.
“Lord Richard, this is the stone statue that sealed the evil life form…”
Richard looked at the stone statue with rapt attention. It looked blurry, completely indistinct, and its appearance could only discover that it was not some strange life.
He opened the attribute panel with a strong sense of curiosity.
[Ancient Stone Statue]
[Level: Glorious]
[Characteristic: Its seals the soul of a wraith devil. It requires several undead energy to activate.]
[Description: One made this stone statue and used a unique method. The soul has already fused into the stone statue because one had sealed it for too long. The activation will give rise to a new life.]
‘This?
‘Glorious?’
Richard’s eyes lit up.
‘Good stuff.’
Then, he opened the Black Gold System with intense anticipation as if he had thought of something.
[Dark Stone Statue]
[Glorious]
[The glorious soul-devouring stone statue has mutated and is fusing with the stone statue.]
[1. It can consume tons of negative energy to successfully mutate and transform it into a dark stone-like life form.]
[2. It can consume tons of light energy to stop its transformation and cause absolute death.]
[The system detected several undead crystals that contained negative energy. One can activate it by consuming undead crystals.]
[Note: The energy injected into it during the activation is highly rich; the higher the level, the higher the potential of the wraith devil after the mutation.]
[Spider divine power detected. You can use divine power to increase its potential. In the mutation of the wraith devil, the ability to mold is one of its mighty power. It can obtain the unique effect of the spider’s divine power.]
