Chapter 36: Chapter 35: The Secret of Green Tooth
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The potential of the half-metal giant has reached Rare 3-stars?!
Richard’s eyelids twitched.
The biggest difference in the potential of a soldier was in their skills.
The higher the potential and the level of skills of a soldier, the more skills they had.
F-rank skills could only increase strength by 15%, and after upgrading to E-rank, they could increase strength by 30%.
If several skills were added together, the difference between them could be imagined.
Therefore, the greater the difference in potential, the greater the difference in combat power.
The skills of these Rare 3-star half-metal giants had already reached D-rank—one level higher than the scorpion warriors.
Moreover, their levels were as high as level 5. They had activated the characteristic of an intermediate soldier—defense increased by 15%.
Every five levels in the game “Shining Era” was a hurdle, and after passing them, there would be an additional increase.
The scorpion warrior was still a beginner-level and did not have any attribute bonuses.
Its potential was one level lower than the enemy.
The half-metal giant’s race talent was all about defense.
This was simply killing him.
It was the super-enhanced version of the nak troll.
Moreover, the enemy was also immune to poison and curses. And the mummies’ and scorpion warriors’ great killing weapons were directly destroyed.
A tiger biting a tortoise… There was nowhere to bite.
Richard took a deep look at those big guys that were glowing with golden light, then turned around and left.
‘This resource point can only be used after my strength has increased.’
At the same time, Richard began to calculate in his heart.
‘If I had a rare-level soldier in my hands, I wouldn’t be so passive.’
‘The dungeon in the one-way portal. This medium-sized gold mine, and the even more powerful Dark Temple…’
Richard decided, “These coveted points all require great strength to possess. It’s time to increase the strength in my hands.”
After marking the gold mine on the system map, Richard thought about returning to the territory from another direction.
However, his luck was not so good when he returned. Richard only encountered two monster encampments.
When he returned to the territory, the sky was already dark.
Karu was waiting for his return as usual.
Looking at the wrinkled old face, Richard’s heart warmed.
However, he did not say anything and only patted his shoulder.
Sensing Richard’s trusting gaze, Karu immediately smiled.
To be able to work for a lord who cared about his subordinates was truly not bad.
When they returned to the Lord’s mansion, the food that had long been prepared was served. They were all delicacies made from fire dragon rabbits.
Those who had been stung to death by the scorpion warriors could no longer be eaten, but those who had been killed by the iron pincers could still be moved to the dining table.
Richard had specially instructed them to use a few cooking methods. Braising, frying, stir-frying, and making clear soup were all available.
The fragrance could be smelled by all the residents passing by outside the Lord’s mansion.
Richard did not enjoy it alone. He called over Adele and Onyx, as well as the leaders of the residents.
He invited them to have a taste of authentic desert food.
An extremely rare fire dragon rabbit feast was enjoyed by the guests and the hosts.
Their relationship became much closer.
After Richard and the others left, he ordered Karu to bring over the desert gnomes he had ordered to be protected.
He was extremely interested in raising the fire dragon rabbit.
He reached out and touched the blanket that a few tailors had made for him after cleaning the fire dragon rabbit’s fur.
He felt very comfortable.
Of course, Richard was the first to use this rare and good thing.
It was hot in the desert during the day, but the temperature at night was very cool, especially in the latter half of the night. He needed to cover something.
The blanket made by the fire dragon rabbit was snow-white and fluffy. It felt indescribably comfortable to the touch, and it emitted a special warmth.
What was even better was that when it was covered, it could automatically adjust the temperature according to the outside world.
It was even more powerful than an air conditioner.
After using it, Richard realized that the fire dragon rabbit was so valuable for a reason.
And the more it was so, the more interested he became.
Not long after…
A green-skinned lifeform that was somewhat uneasy stepped into the hall.
Upon seeing Richard, who was sitting in the main seat, he bowed in fear.
“Great Lord, good evening…” His tone was trembling as if he had been frozen while taking a cold shower in winter.
Richard nodded.
“No need for formalities.”
The desert gnome straightened up and did not dare to look directly at Richard. He lowered his head as if he wanted to tuck his neck into his clothes.
Perhaps there was no more standard model of a coward than this.
“You said you know how to raise fire dragon rabbits? Have you raised them before?”
The desert gnome shrunk its head and raised its head to look at Richard. Then, it quickly lowered its head as if it was a thief.
“Lord, my grandfather once raised more than ten fire dragon rabbits, and I also learned how to raise them…”
Its cowardly and proud tone made Richard not know whether to laugh or cry.
“Tell me about it.”
“Yes!” The desert gnome answered, then started talking excitedly about the process of raising fire dragon rabbits taught by its grandfather.
The level of entertainment in the world was truly too backward. It was quite interesting to listen to a gnome bragging without a phone.
After talking for about ten minutes, the desert gnome finally got to the point.
“If you want to raise fire dragon rabbits, you have to leave a large area in the desert and place dragon leaves grass in the center. Fire dragon rabbits especially like this kind of plant. They will build lairs there.”
The gnome added, “However, you have to put purple vines and thorns around it. The fire dragon rabbit hates this kind of plant because this kind of plant will give off a special aura so that it won’t run away…”
At this point, the green-skinned creature lowered its voice and spoke proudly.
“Lord, let me tell you a secret that no one else knows. The fire dragon rabbits change their fur once a month. There’s no need to kill them at all. Moreover, the fire dragon rabbits don’t need to eat at all. They only need to bask in the sun every day.”
The gnome explained further, “But once the fire dragon rabbits can’t bask in the sun enough, they will want to eat. Once they eat other things, they will die soon. So, the place where the fire dragon rabbit lives, other than the dragon leaf grass and the purple vines and thorns, there can’t be anything else.”
The gnome proudly declared, “What my grandfather doesn’t know is that I observed it myself! At that time, my grandfather even rewarded me with a rabbit leg to eat. It was truly delicious.”
When Richard heard this, he couldn’t help but be surprised.
There was such a strange life form?
It only needed to bask in the sun every day and did not need to eat anything…?
If it ate something, it would die instead?
This was a solar charging board that could turn a spirit, right?
No wonder the fire dragon rabbit could not be bred.
After the others got the fire dragon rabbit, they would surely take care of it carefully. They would want to feed it eight times a day. It would be strange if nothing happened.
After knowing the secret, Richard was in a great mood.
Sure enough, there was no trash in this world, only resources that were misplaced.
If he hadn’t thought of a few more free labors at that time, Richard would have brought these desert gnomes back.
The money-filled matter of raising the fire dragon rabbit probably had nothing to do with Twilight City.
“Very good. Now, you can tell me your name.”
The desert gnome was distraught, and then, he didn’t know what to do.
“Lord, I-I don’t have a name…”
Richard raised his eyebrows.
“You have made a great contribution, so you can’t have no name. I’ll give you a name today. From today on, your name will be…” After pondering for a moment, Richard suddenly saw his green tooth…
“Green Tooth!”
The desert gnome was stunned.
“Green Tooth… Green Tooth…”
After muttering more than ten times, Green Tooth finally came back to his senses. He suddenly kneeled to Richard and kowtowed.
When he stood up, Green Tooth’s forehead was already covered in blood.
However, the expression on his face was still excited.
“I have a name! I have a name!! Green Tooth, hahaha! Lord Richard has given me a name!”
Richard nodded slightly.
“Green Tooth, in the name of the Lord of Twilight City, I have appointed you as the person-in-charge of the fire dragon rabbit breeding base and assigned all the gnomes to you to manage. But remember, the method of raising the fire dragon rabbit must not be known by a third person.”
Richard continued, “At the same time, I will send two bandaged mummies as your subordinates to assist you in raising the fire dragon rabbit. During this period, if you need any supplies, you can request them from Karu. If you encounter any trouble, you can look for me directly.”
Although this desert gnome couldn’t shake off the gnome’s timid nature, Green Tooth could be considered a genius for being able to observe so many things.
Green Tooth who had been entrusted with the heavy responsibility was extremely excited. He wanted nothing more than to kneel on the ground and wipe the soles of Richard’s shoes.
After bowing repeatedly, Green Tooth hopped off to share the joy with his companions.
After the matter was settled, Richard was in a good mood.
After pondering for a moment, he directly opened the [Forum Chat].
He searched for troop lairs.
Today, Richard had been stimulated by the rare-level, half-metal giant in the gold mine. He wanted to buy a new lair of troops and destroy a wave of soldiers.
