296 Chapter 255: Leveling Up Troop Lairs (2/2)

Richard climbed high and looked into the distance.

He stood on the 20-meter-high wall and looked into the distance.

At the end of his line of sight, he could see the vast yellow sand.

The city wall was an irregular square shape that surrounded the territory.

The uneven battlements were half the height of a man, and soldiers could shoot from the depressions. They could use the protrusions to block arrows from below.

Not even a ballista could pierce through the sturdy city walls.

There were four city gates in total.

The sturdy stone door was like a mountain that could isolate everything, firmly closed.

To open the stone door, one had to turn the turntable behind the city wall and use the clever mechanism to make the stone door shrink to the left and right.

Richard held onto the battlements. Satisfaction shrouded his eyes.

Twilight City immediately gave him a different feeling–with the city walls.

It was like rootless duckweed that floated and had turned into a towering tree.

Richard seemed to have thought of something after some observation. He waved his hand to summon the level 12 alchemist Brown.

Richard waited for the gray-colored dwarf alchemist Brown that panted to come up to him and cut straight to the point without waiting for him to bow.

“Brown, get half the giant cannons to the city wall and set up the firing points.

“The rest will set up their positions behind the city wall.”

Cannons were not bows and arrows, and the power of a direct shot was mightier than that of a projectile from behind.

He even wanted to fill the four walls with alchemy cannons if possible.

This exaggeratedly powerful killing weapon was invincible against the ground troops.

Unfortunately, there were too few of them.

They could only carry the artillery fire out under certain conditions.

“Yes, my Lord, my Lord!”

Brown replied excitedly.

Now, he could finally receive orders around by himself and take on such a significant responsibility.

Richard nodded and continued to ask.

“How’s the production progress of natural alchemist’s bombs?”

The alchemy cannon was powerful, but its uttermost weakness was that it required sturdy logistics support.

It would empty his inventory in a few minutes if one could fire this thing without restraint.

Brown immediately replied.

“Lord, we will complete the alchemy workshop by tomorrow. The estimate is that it can produce 50 pills a day…”

“Fifty?”

Richard’s brow furrowed.

“Too small. We don’t have the time to accumulate slowly now.

“I need you to produce 1500 pills by the 15th.”

Richard looked at the other party, who seemed to want to say something else after he said that, and his tone became serious.

“This is an order!”

Brown immediately swallowed all his words.

He gritted his teeth and nodded.

“Yes!”

Richard’s expression softened.

“During this period, if you need any resources, you can ask Karu for them. It includes workers.”

Brown heaved a sigh of relief.

At most, it would not rest for 24 hours! It would complete this mission!

It was the right time to contribute.

It would lose the position he had worked so hard to get if it made a mistake!

After Brown left, Richard looked at the Russian olive forest in the distance with a subtle expression.

There were no more problems in the territory except for the lack of protection for the agricultural area.

Now, he just hopes the agricultural area will not fall into the dungeon.

Otherwise, once the war entered a state of white heat, they could not spare any strength to defend.

Richard felt more at ease after a tour of the city walls. He returned to the mansion.

The city wall construction had cost him 2 million units of stone. After he deducted the odd number, he still had 38 million units of resources left.

It was time to upgrade the troop-type lair that had been stagnant for a long time.

He opened the troop’s lairs’ attribute panel and looked at them carefully.

There were a total of 13 elite-level lairs.

[Guardian’s Land (Elite 3-stars, 3)]

[Battle-Axe Log Cabin (Elite 3-stars, 10)]

[There were a total of 18 lairs for rare-level troop classes.]

[Great Pyramid (Rare 3-stars, 3)]

[Scorpion Lair (Rare 3-stars, 1)]

[Cursed Pharaoh Pyramid (Rare 3-stars, 1)]

[Sand Condensation Archer Pyramid (Rare 3-stars, 5)]

[Giant Axe Death Knight Pyramid (Rare 3-stars, 3)]

[Sand Mage Pyramid (Rare 3-stars, 5)] ????????n????e????d. co????

[There were a total of 3 lairs for rare-level troop lairs]

[Dark Gargoyle’s Lair (Rare 3-stars, 2)]

[Tomahawk Woden House (Rare 3-stars, 1)]

One hundred ordinary troop-type lairs were required to upgrade from elite to rare-level. It was worth 5000 units of resources.

Rare-level promotion to advanced-level requires 1000 normal troop-type lairs worth 500000 units of resources.

A rare-level upgrade to glorious-level requires 10000 normal troop-type lairs. That would be five million units of resources.

Richard upgraded the 13 elite-level lairs to rare-level with a wave of his hand.

He spent 65000 resources.

The number of rare-level troops increased to 31 with that.

Unfortunately, the troop-type lair had a cooldown of 7 days.

For the time being, one could not promote the newly promoted ones the second time.

Richard didn’t hesitate to upgrade the remaining 18 units to rare-level.

The upgrade cost for each troop-type lair was 500000 units, so the total consumption was–9 million.

The thirty-eight million resources, plus the original amount, had 29.2 million units left after two rounds.

The system upgraded all the rest to rare-level other than the 13 troop lairs that needed to wait for seven days.

In addition to the original three, there were a total of 21.

Richard’s heart trembled as he looked at the numbers on the panel.

Twenty-one rare-level troop lairs!

“Twenty-one!

“This was not some cabbages!”

And upgrading from rare to crown would require 5 million units.

These 21 would require 105 million resources.

Richard’s mouth twitched after some thought.

The numbers got increasingly outrageous.

After Richard thought for a while, he chose three rare-level troop lairs that he could upgrade–two dark gargoyles and one of his favorite troops–the undead soldiers of the Axe of the Dead.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

They needed three thousand ordinary troop-type lairs and 15 million resources to upgrade the three troop-type lairs.

Fortunately, the [Trading Market] opted to buy according to the conditions. Otherwise, just buying 30000 crystals would take him a few hours.

The Black Gold System quietly lit up with a notification.

[Tomahawk Wooden House (Rare 3-stars) — Consume 10 rare-level desert camp troop-type lairs to upgrade it to Glorious 3-stars. Conditions have been met. Would you wish to upgrade?]

[Gargoyle’s Lair...]

Three notifications popped up, and Richard chose “confirm” in all three.

At that moment.

The thousands of tomahawks hung in front of the wooden house that emitted faint golden light and suddenly shone brightly.

An indescribable aura began to surge.

The tomahawk wooden house quickly grew like bamboo shoots. It had grown to six meters tall in a blink of an eye.

The tomahawks that hang on the outside also became crystal-clear like a diamond at this moment.

There was also an artistic atmosphere.

On the other side, the two dark gargoyle statues had also grown to six meters tall. They even looked even more ferocious.

[Tomahawk wooden house upgrade successfully. Current level: Glorious 3-stars.]

[Gargoyle’s lair upgrade successfully. Current level: Glorious 3-stars.]

He then opened the Black Gold System’s notification. As expected, he needed ten glorious-level troop lairs to upgrade from glorious to crown-level.

To upgrade a single pill would require 50 million resources.

Once again, Richard felt poor.

Five thousand units. That was the total amount of Twilight City’s resources.

He looked at the lairs of the two glorious-level troops and immediately became interested.

[Gargoyle’s lair (Rare 3-stars, 2) — Recruitable troops: Dark Gargoyle. Recruitable Quantity: 40. Resources Required for Individual Recruitment: 14000 gold coins, 14000 units of wood, 14000 units of stone, 50 units of gems]

[Resources Required for Recruitment: 1.84 million, 2000 units of gemstones]

[Tomahawk Wooden House (Rare 3-stars, 1) — Recruitable Troops: [Axe of the Dead]

[Recruitable Quantity: 10]

[Resources Required for Single Recruitment: 4000 gold coins, 4000 units of stone, 4000 units of iron ore, 50 units of crystal]

[Resources Required for Recruitment: 460000 units, 500 units of crystals]

When Richard looked at the data, his heart suddenly trembled.

He felt his mouth and tongue inexplicably dry.

“Damn it! It seemed that after the upgrade, the resources needed for recruitment were also a huge expense I could not ignore.”

At this moment, he felt both pleasure and pain in his heart.

He took a deep breath, waved his hand, and chose to recruit.

The resources on the attribute panel immediately decreased by a significant amount.

Twilight City gave birth to the first batch of glorious-level troops it had cultivated.
