“Your Majesty, My Lord!” A tall and beautiful person appeared before them.
The person was dressed in a black uniform specially designed for the workers of the smithy. The yellow riding boots accentuated her long legs. The long-handled copper hammer made her look like a gallant warrior.
“You finally left the smithy!” Su Wan smiled at Amorin.
As a research fanatic, Amorin rarely went outside and could hardly bear to leave her workshop for even a few minutes. She could stay there for twenty-four hours straight.
The young woman was a rational and passionate researcher and the founder of the Blacksmith Association.
“My Lord, I need to go to Furnace City.”
“It’s a good idea. You haven’t been to the underground world lately. The dwarves will work hard if they see you there.”
Most of the early-stage technology in the territory was overseen by her. She was not only in charge of the Blacksmith Association in the Dark Region City but also the supervisor of all technological research in the territory.
Su Wan could see her contributions and efforts. Moreover, Amorin had already reached the level of a master blacksmith a while ago.
“I want to take the Transcendent Hunter with me as well,” Amorin said with a smile. The Transcendent Hunter was a mechanical puppet obtained from a large-scale dungeon.
Although it was severely damaged and couldn’t unleash its transcendent-level combat power, it had been quite helpful in the early stages of development.
However, as her power increased, this severely damaged mechanical puppet seemed somewhat mediocre in front of other forces.
Su Wan had left the mechanical puppet at the smithy for Amorin to research.
“I’ve already entrusted the Transcendent Hunter to you. You can do with it as you please,” said Su Wan.
The severely damaged mechanical puppet was worth a fortune to the other Lords. However, Su Wan had many other forces she could rely on, so she could afford to give it away.
“My Lord, do you trust me?”
“No one deserves my trust more than you.” Su Wan looked at the young woman.
“I will definitely not disappoint you and Lord Xu Yuan!” Amorin’s gaze was determined. She bowed to Su Wan in respect and turned around to leave.
The Death Swamp had devoured a portion of the gods’ flesh. It had obtained a small part of divinity. Devouring the flesh of gods could increase the potential of the Death Swamp.
Su Wan couldn’t suppress her joy and quickly left the territory with Xu Yuan.
They passed through the open space gate. The moment they crossed the cracks, a strong smell of blood assailed their noses.
A dense crimson mist enveloped them.
As the owner of the Death Swamp, Su Wan’s perception immediately spread along with the blood mist. The Death Swamp had become much denser. It was filled with energy.
At the same time, there was an army advancing toward the central area. More than twenty planes with hundreds of troops crowded the swamp.
In the very center of the Death Swamp, dozens of golden fruits grew from the branches of the Dark Withered Tree.
The aura constantly tempted the lifeforms. The greed and desire awakened by the fruits affected the troops’ rationality.
Su Wan perceived everything around her. For the army fighting in this land, it was a place of despair where souls were doomed. But for Su Wan, this was a wonderful place. It was a cornucopia of wealth for her.
Su Wan calmed her excitement and looked in the distance. That area hadn’t been invaded by the soldiers from other planes yet. Ferocious statues stood there.
The army shrouded in the blood mist stood tall in the mire formed by melted flesh. They had serpentine tails, humanoid bodies, and wielded tridents.
They stood motionless, like statues. However, they would attack in an instant if an enemy were to approach.
The Blood Slaughterers were a powerful troop born from the Death Swamp. They had the potential to rise to the SS-class!
Once this army completed its ascension, it would undoubtedly become the new pillar of the territory!
With the upgrade of the Death Swamp, the upper limit of the breeding nest increased to 5,000 units.
These troops, formed through condensation, could produce 500 Blood Slaughterers per week with an abundant supply of flesh and blood energy.
Even among the native forces, they were the elite among the elite. They were recruited through the energy of flesh and blood, without the need to expend resources.
If the territory had to bear the cost of such recruitment, Su Wan simply couldn’t afford it.
Su Wan couldn’t help but feel a little sentimental. No matter how many resources she earned, she always felt that she fell short.
It was all because of Xu Yuan, who had high expectations. The territory had never been weak and couldn’t be satisfied with weaker heroes.
Resources had to be reserved for more powerful troops. If all troops were upgraded, the resources wouldn’t be enough!
The scarcer the resources, the more valuable the ability of the Death Swamp to recruit breeds without expending the cost.
If the Death Swamp could be upgraded to Level 5, it could recruit legendary troops without any cost at all.
With the powerful breed of the Evil Dragon Wings, Su Wan looked forward to the Death Swamp, recruiting powerful troops every week.
Suddenly, the thin blood mist condensed rapidly, and a translucent and elderly figure appeared in sight.
“Lord Su Wan and Lord Xu Yuan, greetings to both of you!”
“Lord Modric, you’ve worked hard. Have there been any issues with the Death Swamp?” Su Wan gestured towards the battlefield, shrouded in the blood mist.
“Everything is under control. We have the golden fruits and the Lion of Greed to arouse their greed and desire. It confuses everyone,” said Modric.
If he hadn’t witnessed the Death Swamp and the Dark Withered Tree devouring the corpses, he wouldn’t have believed that a Lord could obtain such power so quickly. But now he knew. He recalled the fall of the Lord of Greed and felt that Su Wan was indeed the key to ushering in a new era..
