Chapter 115: Chapter 113: Glorious-Level
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
With anticipation for the rare level, Richard stepped on the body of the magic puppet and walked through a passage that was dozens of meters long.
He entered the rare-level magic puppet manufacturing room.
A familiar scene appeared before his eyes. Broken bodies of rotted magic puppets filled the ground like a large-scale waste factory.
A long time was enough to decay everything.
The troop scouted the surroundings for several hours. They did not find anything of value.
Since they did not find anything, Richard did not stay any longer. He came to the passage of the next area.
His gaze turned serious.
“The Fire Elemental Lord’s information — the next building area is the glorious-level magic puppet manufacturing workshop…”
Although the trapped lord said the battle had destroyed magic puppets in this workshop, he still did not dare to be careless.
First, he sent two teams of bloody-colored mummies out to scout the way.
After Richard made sure there was no threat, he ordered Gray, Gunter, and Xina to enter. He was the last to enter.
The moment he saw the hall, Richard’s eyes widened.
Hundreds of giant magic puppets more than five meters tall appeared in front of him.
These magic puppets had different shapes. Some were human, some were beasts, and some were even bird-shaped with wings on their backs.
No matter how oddly their shapes were, these magic puppets had one thing in common — their only purpose was to kill.
Sharp weapons of mass destruction equipped every part of their bodies.
One could still imagine how glorious and powerful magic puppets were even if the passage of time had long made them decay.
Fortunately, this was the secondary gate. The evaluation would not be a medium threat if there were several glorious-level magic puppets.
When Richard thought of this, he was suddenly shocked.
The main gate of this ruin was extremely dangerous. Could it be that glorious-level troops filled the main gate?
Or, could there be a higher level of existence?
He felt his scalp go numb when he thought of the glorious-level troops coming in all directions.
He had decided not to go to the main gate until troops were sturdy enough.
Gunter returned to report after it led the troop to search carefully.
“Lord, there are no gemstones or other valuable items found in the bodies of these magic puppets…”
Richard nodded and looked at Xina.
“Did you get anything?”
Xina shook her head.
“No…”
‘So far, there was no information about the seal.”
Richard did not hesitate and waved his hand.
“Keep moving.”
The troop came to the passage leading to the next area.
Richard’s eyes became weighty.
Before he stepped into the passage, he sensed the active magic power in the surroundings had quieted down.
He tried to move a few steps forward, but he could hardly sense the presence of magic power.
The anti-magic area.
After Richard glanced at the map, they arrived at the core of Arcana Hall.
He stared at the troop behind him after some profound thoughts.
“The next area is the area that creates unique magic puppets. And it is also the center of the material storage and the entire Arcana Hall.
“This area is sealed with spells.
“At the same time, magic puppets of unknown strength guard the area. Danger lurks everywhere.
“Everyone must be vigilant!
“Gray, Gunter, stay outside and wait here with the cursed pharaohs.”
The two mummy heroes were both spell casters, and the anti-magic area was the natural enemy of all wizards.
A spellcaster who could not mobilize magic power was not necessarily better than the militia…
Just as he was about to explore this unknown map, Richard turned around with a serious expression.
“Xina, the next battle is exceedingly dangerous. You are not yet my subordinate, so I can allow you to stay here.
“This is for your safety.”
He paused for a moment, and his voice became louder.
“Of course, you can also fight alongside us, sharing life and death.”
One needs to build a good impression slowly.
The four great ironies of life… A friendship forged through the fires of war together. There was no need to say how precious it was.
Richard’s words pointed out what they were experiencing together, reinforcing the connection between the two sides.
There was also the premise he was negotiating with the Fire Elemental Lord. Richard gave up other benefits and specifically asked for help to remove the seal in her body.
China’s gaze did not waver at all.
“Lord Richard, I request to fight with you!”
Richard deeply looked into her eyes.
“Xina, from now on, you will temporarily become a member of Twilight City. I will command you as a subordinate. If necessary, you will even give up your life!
Are you ready?!”
“Xina will listen to your orders!”
Since Richard truly cared about solving the seal for her, she would not let her companions down.
Richard nodded in satisfaction.
China’s personality was completely different from Adele’s. Using this method to build a close relationship was much better than being a sissy.
His gaze focused as he began to give out orders.
“Blood-colored mummy, go and scout the enemy. Immediately return if you encounter the enemy. Do not fight the enemy if you can lure them out.
“The other troops, wait for my orders!”
The blood-colored mummy disappeared for a short while.
Suddenly, an intense battle sound erupted. After a short while, the battle disappeared without a trace.
The opponents wiped all the two troop squads in just a few breaths.
Not a single one of them survived.
Due to the dim light, the ten-meter-tall arched passage was like a vast bloody-mouthed beast. It seemed to be able to devour all the troops.
Richard looked at the silent air and frowned.
The number of casualties of the recruited troops did not make his heart wrench. What made his heart stew was how strong the enemy inside could be.
After he pondered for a while, he gradually had an idea.
He extended his hand to signal a cursed pharaoh who had not used Sand Transformation to approach the passage.
“Activate Sand Transformation!”
After the cursed pharaoh received the order, its body became blurry.As if it was made of countless sand grains…
When Richard saw this, he was festive.
“Not bad, not bad at all!!
” We could still use Sand Transformation in the anti-magic area!”
Sand Transformation was his lord’s talent. It was a bloodline skill that consumed his strength.
‘What you freeze is free in the air magic energy. What does it have to do with the power in my bloodline?’
Magic-immune units like the dark gargoyles can do Sand Transformation. This doesn’t seem to be surprising.
“Rest here and wait for everyone’s Sand Transformations skills to recover before entering.”
Richard’s eyes were burning. The guards in the magic-immune area could only be physical weapons.
“Sand Transformation, heaven-defying physical damage!”
The last battle was so intense that most soldiers used Sand Transformation.
They could only wait at this point.
His Sand Transformation cooldown time was one hour, and subordinates’ had doubled. It would take two hours to refresh.
The exhausted troops’ aura also recovered to its peak state after everyone’s skill cooldown time was restored.
To prevent accidents from happening.
Richard ordered a small team of bandaged mummies to activate Sand Transformation to explore the path twenty meters ahead.
The rest of the troops followed behind.
The passage was only dozens of meters away. It didn’t take long for them to arrive at the last area of Arcana Hall.
The view suddenly widened.
It was a hall that was more than fifty meters high.
Engraved on the surrounding walls were countless obscure and mysterious magic inscriptions.
The majestic building seemed to have entered the most “Shining Era” of the Resplendent Wizard Tower in ancient times.
But the next second, Richard’s expression suddenly became exceedingly staid.
A squadron of magic puppets stood a hundred meters away.
Bodies of the blood-colored mummies’ were scattered around – as if chopped off.
Those magic puppets were over five meters tall. Their entire bodies were made of metal and glowed with a white-gold light. Their auras were transgressively horrifying.
Each of their arms carried a thick-edged broadsword over two and a half meters long. It weighed several hundred pounds.
There was a well-defined tail behind them. The end tail was as sharp as a spear. Even a heavy shield could not resist it.
Protruding death weapons covered the shoulder armor, elbows, and knees.
They are ultimate killing machines.
Richard only took a glance and immediately felt his brain swell.
