888 Chapter 517: Six Million Rare Resources, A Wave of Harvest From Ell Kingdom [1/3]
Richard had witnessed the war between the players and the natives of the Orc Empire, and after they won.
He also felt some pressure while he was excited.
More than 500,000 players participated in this battle. The exaggerated number of nearly 100 million troops and 10,000 legions made his heart beat wildly.
The power of Twilight City was far ahead of any top-tier player.
He was practically invincible, not to mention the two transcendents in his hands.
But what if the situation changed and the players joined forces?
Could Twilight City hold on one hundred, one thousand, ten thousand, even a hundred thousand million?
This question made him ponder.
Richard thought for a long time. He finally smiled.
He still had the Eternal City if nearly ten thousand legions attacked, with over a hundred million soldiers.
No one could do anything to him if he closed the spatial gate.
However, the dead end would leave him no choice end at that point.
Richard heaved a deep breath. His gaze gradually regained its determination.
He would let Twilight City have the power to crush all forces since he was not interested in joining any.
He alone was the desert camp. No matter how many enemies there were. So what?
Heroic spirit filled his eyes.
Only after a long time had he regained his senses.
The strategy was far-reaching, and the feet had to be firm.
Twilight City still needed to continue farming and developing.
Moreover, the lord of corrosion’s tentacles would extend to Twilight City in early March, one and a half months later.
In the sky outside the city, the Dwarf God temporarily sealed the spatial rift. That expanded every day.
The Sword of Damocles hung above one’s head. It got increasingly threatening.
He needed to seize the time to become stronger and cut off the dagger at his throat.
The passage of time did not stop at anyone’s will.
January 20th. It had been four days since the battle between the players. Emily held the authority and manipulation over the Lion Duke.
The players had entered a state of excitement. The intensity of their exploration of the plane had become increasingly exaggerated. The losses were not small, but the gains were equally abundant.
According to the statistics, the overall strength of the players swiftly increased.
The player explored the plane, and the chapter became active. The Twilight City troop did not cease to operate for the people of Ell.
The two princesses of Ell’s royal family had Emily as their support, and they used the Lion Duke’s troop to raise more than five legions.
They were much mightier than when they had nothing, although less than two legions were true elites.
The news of Lion Duke’s demise soon spread.
This action immediately caused a huge uproar.
Many factions began to stir, and even some great nobles secretly sent letters to express their support and loyalty to the two princesses.
A Duke turned rouge destroyed the royal family of Ell not long ago. Many turned greedy for power, but many remained loyal as well. In addition, the Raging Blood Duke’s exceptionally cold-blooded rebellion dissatisfied several people.
The two princesses could not hide it anymore, so they simply raised the flag of the royal family of Ell and called on everyone to fight against the despicable and cruel traitor, the Raging Blood Duke.
A storm began to rise in the Ell Kingdom.
The people’s hearts wavered, and the Raging Blood Duke began to deploy troops from various provinces to encircle and suppress the Lion Duke’s territory from all directions.
The traitor of the Kingdom of Ell planned to wipe out the last resistance of the royal family in one fell swoop.
In the eyes of those with discerning eyes, the situation had developed this way enormously because the traitor had deliberately indulged them.
The current ruler of Ell wanted to eliminate the last hope of the royal family of Ell.
That is to use fresh blood to establish their prestige.
The entire Ell Kingdom would be under his control as he wins the battle.
On January 22nd, when the Ell Kingdom was in turmoil and the war that could decide the fate of the entire plane brewed, Richard planned to go to Ell to take charge of the overall situation. A series of successful battles freed him from a myriad of complicated issues.
However, he received good news a minute before he left the Lord’s Mansion.
[Ding~ The blacksmith shop did incessant research day and night. That has upgraded the attack technology of the Stone Statue of the Dead lair to special-level. It has obtained a new characteristic–Broken Mountain.]
[Note: Each stone statue of the dead can consume 500 units of gems to upgrade its technology in the blacksmith shop. New stone statue of the dead can directly obtain this attack characteristic.]
[Broken Mountain — This unleashes all the power on the battle axe and deals a fatal blow to a single target. It could slaughter enemies with lower potential or level than itself or on contact–Soul Execution. It could deal three times the damage to enemies with higher potential than the user. It has an additional 40% Armor Pierce damage.]
To improve technological research and development, Richard ordered Adele, who was in charge of the Blacksmith Association in the underground world, to gather outstanding blacksmiths and send them back to Twilight City.
At the beginning of this month, Adele brought the 20 selected blacksmiths back to Twilight City to assist Sam, the one-armed blacksmith, in his research and development.
The attack technology of the stone statues of the dead had finally reached a new height after more than half a month, with their joint efforts.
Richard smiled when he saw the newly acquired characteristic of the stone statues of the dead.
Every harvest made him feel that his previous investment was fruitful.
It was the same for establishing an environment for forging technology sharing in the underground world, also investing in technological research and development.
The stone statues of the dead, the trump card of Twilight City, now moved forward to unbelievable power and strength with the additional characteristics of advanced technology.
