Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ferula’s hope of going out to train with Eliza was shattered.
Eliza found the situation funny.
If Ferula’s memory was restored, and she returned to being the demigod-level hero like before, Eliza wondered how she would see this moment.
“If possible, I will try my best to persuade the clansmen to join the territory.” Eliza knew what Su Wan preferred. If the monsters could join the territory, it would be beneficial to them as well as to Su Wan.
Su Wan nodded. “Just try your best.”
The territory was currently very strong. It was no longer the weak territory from before.
After visiting Canglan City, Su Wan gained much insight into how to run a city or a territory.
“Yes, My Lord.”
Su Wan looked at the Dark Enchanter and nodded.
The two people left.
The Dark Withered Tree and the Hydra were transforming. Eliza and Eve wanted to go out and level up. The top-notch heroes of the territories were gone just like that.
When they returned, the territory would have leveled up to greater heights. However, before that, Su Wan needed to visit the underground world.
Su Wan wanted to see the progress of alchemy technology in Furnace City. She also wanted to meet the dwarves, who claimed that they were from a divine bloodline.
Su Wan had summoned even more troops. After coming back from Canglan City and upgrading the territory, she summoned two more batches.
[Territory Skeleton Guardians: 800]
[Rotten Cavalry: 500I
[Giant Lizard Warriors: 300]
[Venomous Snakes: 200]
[Death Knights: 350]
[Night Elf Flame Archers: 900]
[Mages: 450]
[Night Devil Bees: 2700]
Su Wan had so many Night Devil Bees that if all of them rose to the sky, they could cover the whole territory.
The territory had many troops and was well protected. However, the price for that was a depletion of resources.
Su Wan sighed. She felt stressed because of such lavish expenditure. She wanted to accumulate resources and upgrade all troops. However, it was getting more and more difficult to accomplish that.
Su Wan felt like she was poor again. Resources could be earned by exploring high-risk areas. However, she had the dwarves to deal with first.
The swamp needed to be left alone, and the Void Sandworm could only open the Space Gate for a few hours.
Su Wan woke Xu Yuan up. They needed to take the two-way portal to the underground world. When they passed by the Dark Withered Tree, they couldn’t feel its aura at all. It felt like the tree was dead.
The Night Devil Bees rested on the branches of the tree. Everything felt strange.
Xu Yuan ignored them. Su Wan and Xu Yuan passed through the Space Gate and arrived in the underground world.
There was the smell of much in the underground passageways. Xu Yuan frowned. No matter how many benefits the underground world provided them, he could never get used to living in a world without the sun.
Su Wan confirmed the location from the System Map and they flew there.
Ever since the Grey Dwarves were exterminated, Dark Region City had become the center of the underground world.
The Barbarian Race had finally become the ruler of the underground world.
Even before Su Wan opened trade with the underground world, the Dark Region City had been in control of everything underground.
The streets of the Dark Region City were bustling with people traveling back and forth. All kinds of races lived in this place.
Most people were there to either buy or sell weapons.
The news of Dark Region City using food to purchase high-level equipment had spread throughout the underground world.
Food was more valuable than anything else in the underground world.
As two dark figures flew down from the sky, the people in the streets stopped to look up.
The place became noisy. Everyone wanted to see what a Lord from the surface would look like. Unfortunately, the figures descending from the sky were too fast. They were a blur.
Su Wan and Xu Yuan ignored the whispers and stolen glances. They directly flew to the mansion.
The Lord of the Dark Region City walked out of the mansion to welcome Su Wan and Xu Yuan.
“Lord Su Wan and Your Majesty, Xu Yuan, welcome!” Felix walked over to them. He bowed respectfully.
Xu Yuan admired the underground people. They never accepted defeat.
“No need to be so formal, Felix,” said Su Wan. “We’re friends, after all.”
Felix was conflicted. The officials behind him sighed in relief.
They told Su Wan about the rumors that had spread in the underground world. Some rabbits had been captured from the forests, and whoever had done it had killed the hunting dogs.
Su Wan looked puzzled. She had promised that she would help the underground world as long as Felix also agreed to lend help to her territory when in need.
“My Lord, please come in. We can talk more comfortably.”
Felix led them into the mansion and offered them a seat at the table.
The underground world had changed drastically in the past few months, thanks to Xu Yuan and Su Wan. The Lord’s reputation in the underground world was unparalleled..
