309 Too Poor
“The fallen god could be resurrected in his body,” said Ferula solemnly.
The divine body was not easy to destroy. They were practically invincible. Therefore, she had no choice but to seal it with the Divine Kingdom.
“So, the divine body is still in the Divine Kingdom?” asked Su Wan.
Ferula nodded. “The body was emitting power and tainting the mermen. For thousands of years, these tainted mermen have reproduced rapidly.”
!!
According to what Ferula knew, the tainted mermen had already formed an army within the Divine Kingdom. They were at least Level 75.
I suggest we wait and become stronger if we want to explore the Divine Kingdom. With our current progress, it will be difficult to deal with the tainted mermen,” said Ferula.
Su Wan felt that that was sound advice. With the current speed at which they were leveling up, her troops would be ready in no time. Meanwhile, Xu Yuan could break through the current level.
Su Wan nodded. She was still shaken. The value of a divine body was priceless.
Unfortunately, they couldn’t rush to explore for now. The tainted mermen were at least Level 75. Su Wan and her troops needed to get stronger.
‘What if there was an existence in that place that could even match Xu Yuan?’ thought Su Wan.
“We can’t let anyone else find out about this,” said Su Wan. “Also, is it possible for Ferula to recover more of her memories?”
Xu Yuan shook his head. “Her soul was injured twice. It is difficult to heal that kind of damage.”
Ferula only remembered her past till she had discovered the Divine Kingdom. She couldn’t recall anything else.
Su Wan felt that that was for the best. At least, Ferula could enjoy her life now and start over. There was no need for her to endure such unpleasant memories.
Su Wan opened Ferula’s attribute panel. The SSS-class tag jumped out. Su Wan knew the value of having an SSS-class hero at hand.
No one would be able to challenge Ferula in the territory, except Xu Yuan.
Moreover, Ferula’s attributes would increase drastically as she leveled up. She had an endless potential to become the strongest in the territory.
Su Wan was euphoric.
“If your kind decides to join us, we can make space for them,” said Su Wan. If she had around 3-50 powerful centaurs at her command, her territory would be invincible.
Ferula shook her head. “Without the approval from the patriarch, the Centaur Clan will not join anyone else. I can’t call them here.”
Ferula was chosen to guard the lake because the patriarch of their clan had approved it. Otherwise, she would never have left her fellow centaurs.
Su Wan was surprised. She wanted to tell the centaurs to move forward with the times. It seemed they still followed such old customs.
However, there was no time to convince them of that right now. Besides, it seemed the centaurs sided with the gods. They might not really side with Xu Yuan, after all.
Su Wan waved her hand. Ferula went out to play. She was happy as she watched Ferula disappear around the corner.
Xu Yuan opened the attribute panel. They had accumulated two weeks’ worth of resources.
“We need to go to the underground dungeons again. You should hurry and develop the territory. It has become more urgent to level up.” Xu Yuan yawned.
Su Wan was feeling restless. There was the mythical ruin they still needed to explore. Now, they had information about the Divine Kingdom which was worth visiting…
It was as though numerous treasures were waving at her invitingly, but she wasn’t strong enough to harvest them!
She needed to expand the territory as well.
[City Walls]
[Characteristic: Able to build a 20-meter-tall city wall for a small city. It’s equivalent to a normal city wall.]
[Additional characteristic: As Firm as a Rock. Soldiers guarding the city wall will have their defenses increased by 20% and strength increased by 20%.]
[Placing the city wall requires 2 million units of stones.]
[Note: A city wall passed down from the ancient era, rare and precious.]
This blueprint of the city walls had been dropped in the recent war. The attributes were decent, but the problem was that she couldn’t build them right now.
Building the city walls required a total of 2 million units of stones. Even if she unearthed her whole territory, she wouldn’t be able to gather them.
Su Wan sighed. She could only visit the underground to collect more resources. There was no other way.
The trade output was slow for now. The pace at which they killed monsters wasn’t helping either. They needed to raise resources as soon as possible.
“Go and make arrangements,” said Xu Yuan. “Also, find Ferula and tell her that the territory might not be safe from now on to play around.” He closed his eyes.
They prepared to go explore. A chunk of the troops was left behind to defend the territory. Su Wan’s territory faced danger both from the other Lords and the Light-Types.
Su Wan wanted to blame Xu Yuan for all the gloom. If it wasn’t for the plantation area, most residents would have believed they were living in hell.
…
In the underground, Xu Yuan’s dark flames burned a little to illuminate the way. His dragon aura spread in all directions. Some underground creatures fled in fear.
Behind Xu Yuan, the Red-Eyed Black Dragon followed closely.
The Night Devil Bees were next. The Night Flame Archers and the Dark Knights rode behind with their weapons ready in their hands.
Su Wan rode on Xu Yuan’s back and watched the surroundings vigilantly.
The underground areas were too dark and gloomy for her taste. However, they needed to explore it and get as many resources as they could.
