Chapter 50: Chapter 49: Gemstone Mine

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The first round of collision ended quickly.

The undead soldiers ended in a complete victory, but they had yet to retrieve their tomahawks.

The second batch of goat monsters had already charged forward and fought with the scorpion warriors.

The giant hammers in their hands contained terrifying power.

They swore to crush these undead soldiers!

‘Whoosh!’

A goat monster suddenly smashed toward the scorpion warriors before it. This hammer strike even made the scorpion warriors feel a fatal danger.

The giant pincers closed and directly blocked in front ofit.

‘Clang!’

The moment the two sides collided, sparks flew in all directions. It was like a blacksmith forcefully hammered a piece of red-hot iron.

The goat monster was one head shorter than the scorpion warrior, but its explosive strength made the scorpion warrior take three steps back. Eight of its feet sank in the yellow sand.

It was violent and powerful.

The scorpion warrior, who had never met an opponent in close combat, was now at a significant disadvantage before the Rare 2-stars goat monster.

The gap of one level opened up a gap in strength between the two sides.

However, the scorpion warriors were not afraid even though the goat monsters defeated them. No matter how the goat monsters charged at them, they roared and defended the defensive line before them.

The battle was extremely intense.

“Cast your spell and control the situation. The other devils will break through the scorpion warriors’ defensive line.”

When Richard gave the order, the cursed pharaoh, who had been prepared, raised its withered wooden scepter.

A dark light flashed across the sky.

[Curse of the Pharaoh (E-rank) – After casting a curse on the enemy, the enemy will fall into a weakened state, all attributes reduced by 20%. Consumes 20 mana.]

[Cooldown Time: 5 minutes]

Curse words… Control the enemy.

After it cast two curses consecutively, the demonic goat monster which has attacked ferociously instantly felt its strength drop by a large margin.

Even the speed at which it swung the giant hammer became sluggish.

Some even fell to a standstill, which allowed the scorpion warrior to attack.

At this time, the goat monster finally discovered the cursed pharaoh behind it.

But the two lines of defense in front of it were as solid as rocks, unbreakable.

The only regret was that the cursed pharaoh only had one small team, and the goat monsters still had three small teams left.

It could not completely control it.

A goat monster without a curse exploded its strength to the limit and directly hit the giant pincers of the scorpion warrior.

The pincers of the scorpion warrior that could tear through steel showed countless cracks, like glass that had fallen to the ground.

The goat monster continued its pursuit.

Roaring furiously, it swung its giant hammer once more. It wanted to smash this damned scorpion into smithereens!

‘Crack!’

That strike that could shatter boulders directly smashed the giant pincers into smithereens and blasted up sand and gravel that filled the sky.

The giant hammer did not lose any of its remaining strength and directly shattered the chest of the scorpion warrior.

The goat monster did not show the slightest joy at such an impressive result because it felt like it had hit cotton with its hammer.

The giant hammer did not release massive force and could not be contained. It caused the center of gravity to lose balance. The goat monster staggered a few steps and almost fell to the ground.

Sand Transformation!

It was this life-saving skill again!

The scorpion warrior, whose chest has rapidly recovered, let out a low roar.

Seized this rare opportunity, it swung the intact iron pincers in its left hand.

The iron hook, like a butcher’s hook used to hang livestock, was directly nailed to the body of the goat monster.

With a forceful pull, an exaggerated wound tore through the body of the goat monster.

At the same time, the venomous scorpion tail behind the goat monster also pierced out like lightning.

‘Puchi!’ It directly pierced through the shoulder of the goat monster, and the poison crazily poured into its body.

The situation turned around in that instant.

Life and death were on the line.

Under the pressure of the goat monsters, the scorpion warriors began to transform into sand.

The goat monsters, which only dealt physical damage, rampaged and crushed the scorpion warriors. They immediately turned into rats biting turtles, with nowhere to bite.

Their attacks, which could destroy the city walls, could not do anything to the scorpion warriors, who were immune to 99% physical damage.

‘Whoosh! Whoosh!’

After the scorpion warrior turned into sand, the sound of a tomahawk pierced through the air and roared again.

‘Boom!’

The distance of more than 20 meters was so close that even before the goat monster could clearly see the tomahawk, it could already feel a sharp pain in its body…! Soul Execution!

It fell to the ground dead!

After it transformed into sand, the scorpion warrior forcefully held back the goat monster.

Meanwhile, the cursed pharaoh used its Crowd Control skills to immobilize the movements of the goat monsters.

With the cooperation of the other troops, the undead soldiers particularly enjoyed killing.

Moreover, at a distance of 20 to 30 meters, there was a 30% chance for the Soul Execution to trigger. This rapidly reduced the number of goat monsters.

When the undead soldier killed the last goat monster, the intense battle with the undead soldier ended as the central core of the damage output.

[Ding~ Your Army has eliminated a group of goat monsters and obtained victory in a miniature battle. You have obtained 200 experience points.]

[Ding~ The undead soldiers had killed a large number of enemies. The level has been increased. Current level: 4.]

After the Axe of the Dead had reached level 4, the upgrade refreshed all the skills, and their aura became intense.

Richard could see clearly from behind. Except that the scorpion warriors killed three or four goat monsters, the undead soldiers had killed all the remaining enemies.

The battle strength it displayed made him feel elated.

Although the battle today had destroyed dozens of gathering points of the troop, those were all elite and ordinary levels, so there was no way to measure the real strength of the undead soldiers.

At this moment, facing a rare-level soldier, the undead soldier still displayed its absolute dominance. It made him feel excited.

This is the kind of troop worthy of his efforts.

After the goat monster died, the weapon in its hand quickly rotted and corroded.

It was the rule of the game “Shining Era”. After the soldier recruited from the troop’s lair died, the weapon and equipment would lose their power and quickly be damaged.

Richard ignored all this and happily stepped into the gemstone mine under the sand dune.

The sparkling gemstones were embedded in the cracks of the stones. Under the setting sun, they looked beautiful and colorful.

“No wonder dragons and girls like these shiny things. They’re quite beautiful… I have to ask the miners to keep a big gemstone. What if I need it in the future?”

The system prompt appeared at the right time.

[Ding~ Do you want to occupy the gemstone mine?]

After confirming, he marked this point on the system map.

He only had to wait until he returned and send someone to mine it.

Fortunately, this place was only forty minutes away from the territory, so it wouldn’t be too strenuous.

He was in a great mood, and his harvest today wasn’t bad.

First, was his target for today—hunting.

Because the wild monsters had spawned, he hunted prey in exchange for 30,000 units of resources.

At the same time, the system space was also filled up. After processing, Richard had at least 2,000 units of meat.

Just the food alone was already quite a harvest.

Second, he could feel the power in his hands through a head-on battle with the goat monsters.

Moreover, he had raised the level of the undead soldiers to level 4.

Finally, he had occupied a rare resource point—the gemstone mine. He was pleased.

While he was thinking, he searched around the gemstone mine. After he found no other treasures, Richard did not stay any longer.

He returned to the territory with a whole bag of prey.

When he returned to the territory, the sky was already dark.

Karu was waiting here as usual, but unexpectedly.

Adele was also there.

“Good evening, Lord Richard… The kitchen maid has already prepared dinner for you.”

“Also, the team that went out to search has returned.”

As soon as Karu finished speaking, Adele immediately went forward and said excitedly.

“Thank you, Lord!”

Richard said softly.

“Adele, did our search team find your father?”

The girl shook her head violently, and her eyes suddenly turned red.

Richard didn’t understand. Why did she still look so happy that she was crying?

Adele took a few deep breaths to calm herself down before she spoke.

“Lord Richard, although they didn’t find my father, they have news about him.”

“Oh? Was he rescued by someone else?”

“That’s right. My father found the Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce and has set off for Solan City.”

‘Ah, this…? This father is so ambitious? Why didn’t he look for you?’

As if seeing through Richard’s doubts, the girl explained.

“The Phoenix Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce has a special treasure that can find missing people in the desert, but it requires the blood of relatives…”

Only then did Richard understand.

Compared to searching aimlessly in the desert, this method was more reliable.

“Onyx has already returned to Solan City. After they meet, they will surely inform him of your safety.”

Adele nodded happily and bowed to Richard again.

“If it were before, I would surely have gone to look for my father.”

As she spoke, her face blushed.

“But now, I am a member of Twilight City, your subordinate. Since my father is safe, I will surely work hard for you!”

Richard was deep in thought when he heard this.

If he had completed the recruitment mission of an A-rank hero by ordinary means, he was afraid that he had already failed.

The system’s mission was to find the other party’s father before he was safe and bring him back to the territory so that Adele could stay.

Otherwise, she would still leave even if the spies discovered his father was safe.

After all, knowing that her father had gone to Solan City, she could not stay here alone.

Compared to her father, who was more critical in unfamiliar territory, did she need to think about it?

Fortunately, he found another way to complete the hero recruitment mission in advance.

Richard thought of this.

It seemed that there was not only one way to complete the hero recruitment mission.

In the future, he might be able to explore this area, not limited to the mission ceiling…
