***
Richard put away the two treasures and looked around.
‘Puchi!’
A gigantic trunk struck a twin-headed ogre cavalry 10 meters away from the god’s ancient tree and swept over.
Its body exploded like a baseball that hit a watermelon.
The death of the twin-headed ogre lord caused the already hopeless situation to collapse quickly.
The two-headed ogre cavalry was still as ferocious as before.
However, in front of the terrifying boss unit, the god’s ancient tree, the damage it could cause was very limited.
The 40-meter-long roots and the trunk with the instant death characteristic made it impossible for them to attack the ancient tree of divine sin at close range.
This menacing monster siege directly halted.
No matter how crazy the remaining enemies were, they would only be fertilizer for the god’s ancient tree.
Richard looked at this scene, and his thoughts were a little subtle.
He saw the difference between a top-tier with strapping battle power and an ordinary soldier again.
The number of soldiers that launched an attack was much higher than the god’s ancient tree.
However, when faced with the god’s ancient tree, he was like a child who had just learned to speak. He had no resistance at all.
The only way to deal with this powerful boss was to find its flaws and surround it.
However, it was a pity that Twilight City eliminated the weakness of the god’s ancient tree. It was the lack of long-range attacks.
Richard’s mood brightened at the thought.
When the god’s ancient tree was his enemy, the stronger it was, the more it displeased him. However, after it became a member of Twilight City, the stronger it was, the more itpleased him.
It wasn’t in vain that he had been thinking about it for so long.
The battle in the agricultural area was coming to an end.
Alves and the skeleton blood dragon gradually settled the battle in Twilight City.
Without the harassment of the enemy’s air force, the skeleton blood dragon was undoubtedly the overlord.
The ground troops could not escape the corrosive dragon breath.
The battle scene vividly reflected the importance of air positioning advantage.
The performance of these crown-level troops in this war was extremely outstanding.
Twenty minutes later.
The system notification rang in Richard’s ears.
[Ding~ Your territory has received a special reward during the special disaster week–the beasts have come out of their cages and defeated several enemies. Twilight City has obtained a special reward–it has upgraded all troops to one level.]
[Ding~ You have received 100,000 experience points.]
[Ding~ Your experience points are at maximum. You have triggered the mission–Battle of the Heroes.]
[Please hunt a wild hero with C-rank potential and above and a level above ten by yourself.]
[After the mission is completed, It can promote you to a high-level hero. Before the mission is completed, you will remain at level 9 and unable to gain experience.]
Richard’s eyes lit up when he heard the system notification.
It had been almost three months, and he had finally reached level 10.
It wasn’t easy.
And the next level was the first watershed.
Troops above level 10 were called advanced troops, and heroes were called advanced heroes.
All attributes will receive additional bonuses.
They said this level was the first step of a qualitative change.
After that were the two vital levels. Levels 15 and 20.
With every checkpoint, their battle power would increase explosively.
Who knew when he could level up to 15 or 20 if it took so much effort to level up to 10?
“The mission–Battle of the Heroes allows me to hunt down a level 10 hero unit with a potential of C-rank and above alone?”
Richard sniffed at the smell and turned to look at the headless body of the twin-headed ogre lord.
Was he too fast just now…? It was a level 14 boss, and he gave it away for nothing.
This mission might be tight for other lords. After all, not everyone could fight a level 9 heads up to level 10. And the opponent was a hero.
But to him… “Wasn’t it too easy to kill just one?”
His current template was even more bizarre than the god’s ancient tree.
Even if he didn’t use his extraordinary hunter, he could still toy with the level 14 twin-headed ogre lord to death.
A Beyond A-rank was enough to make him invincible among those of the same level.
In comparison, he was more like a boss.
With a wave of his hand, he rolled up the corpse of the twin-headed ogre lord with the sand and threw it near the god’s ancient tree.
“Keep this body. We’ll use it to recruit mummies in the future.”
The god’s ancient tree that devoured the corpses around immediately dragged the ogre’s corpse into the desert.
Richard raised his head and saw that the god’s ancient tree had grown hundreds of golden fruits, which had only been ten before the war.
They were indeed conspicuous while hung on the empty branches.
That elated his mood instantly.
They were all venomous wasps.
When all are hatched, the number exceeds a thousand.
Today’s colossal harvest was the mysterious map that pointed to an unknown treasure trove.
These were the corpses.
Each corpse represented voluminous nutrients.
When Richard had raised the number of venomous wasps to the maximum of 3000.
It would vastly improve the defense of Twilight City.
They didn’t even need to let the enemies come over in the battle just now as the thousands of venomous wasps were enough to annihilate them.
With that thought, Richard looked at the god’s ancient tree with immense satisfaction.
This boss was indeed his favorite. He was simply too valuable to be cultivated.
After the god’s ancient tree had devoured all the scattered corpses on the periphery, Richard looked at the sand covered with dried blood and frowned slightly.
With a wave of his hand, he controlled the sand and buried the shriveled bodies under the yellow sand.
The sand in a mess returned to its original state as if nothing had happened.
“Lord Richard! We’ve already defeated the enemy!”
Karu ran out of the territory excitedly. Before he even got close, he could hear Richard’s excited voice.
Richard chuckled at the old gray-haired man.
“What are the casualties?”
The old gray-haired Karu laughed.
“Other than a few bandaged mummies that died, there are no other damages.
“The giant alchemy cannon you brought home is too powerful.
“Our troops have more than half of the enemies before they could even get close to Twilight City.
“The bandaged mummies and scorpion warriors protected those unslaughtered because they blocked the artillery shots.”
As Karu spoke, he turned and looked around.
“The battle on your side…”
He was stunned halfway through.
The quiet and peaceful environment he saw was starkly different from the battlefield he imagined.
“What was going on?”
Richard chuckled.
“It’s already been resolved.”
He looked at the god’s ancient tree as he spoke.
“Treebeard, go to the territory and devour all the dead bodies. Let the venomous wasps reproduce.”
“As you wish, Lord…”
Treebeard’s slow ancient treeman language sounded.
‘Shua!’
Treebeard mobilized its roots and went around the agricultural area. It returned to Twilight City.
Old Karu’s heart trembled.
This twisted human-faced ancient giant tree was more than 40 meters tall. Even though Richard had seen it walk many times, it still looked quite shocking.
When the tree roots saw the corpses and limbs all over the south of their territory, they immediately rooted themselves in the ground in a happy mood.
Soon after.
Tiny roots grew out and pierced into the limbs like straws. It devoured the energy of the corpses around them.
The golden fruits on the tree’s crown quickly expanded like balloons after the tree received sufficient energy.
The color gradually darkened.
A few minutes felt like a few months.
The golden fruits gradually cracked open. It revealed the “flesh” inside–venomous wasps connected to transparent tubes.
The wasps started to spread after their exposure to the air
They slowly stretched their bodies and let the air dry the sticky liquid on their bodies.
After their bodies had dried up, the wasps slowly flapped their wings and broke free from the transparent tube that looked like an umbilical cord.
They slowly flew around the tree trunk.
More and more golden fruits cracked open. And the newly born poisonous wasps quickly formed thick black clouds above the god’s ancient tree.
The buzzing sound spread far and wide.
After the god’s ancient tree finished devouring the corpses on the south side, Richard opened the man’s attribute panel and saw the data that satisfied him.
[Venomous Wasps, count-1621.]
These were Rare 3-stars troops.
It was so comfortable.
As expected, any disaster week is fake. But welfare week is genuine.
Those resource weeks were a lie. To the desert, the resource weeks that increased the production of resource points should be called disaster weeks.
He could only look forward to a few more similar disaster weeks. He was fine, and Twilight City could still withstand this kind of pressure…
