Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When Richard thought of this, he silently searched in his heart… mummy, mage unit.
But this time, the number of people that appeared had pronouncedly decreased.
Richard checked them one by one. Twenty minutes later, he found a special mage unit in a rare-level troop lair.
Crazy Sand Master… Rare 3-stars, 100,000 exchange points.
The mage troop was twice as expensive as the ordinary troop.
However, the powerful attributes of this troop made him quite tempted. He did not hesitate and directly bought it.
But this time, when he bought five of them, it indicated he had reached his limit.
As expected, mages were the true gods. The price was high, and the quantity was low.
As a result, these 15 troop lairs cost him 600,000 points.
However, he was still in a pretty good mood. The troop’s strength would increase again as long as they built troop lairs.
Moreover, the mage troop lairs could be encountered but not sought. He did not consider this round a loss.
After Richard thought for a while, he opened the option of building blueprints.
He could count the number of buildings in Twilight City on his one hand. It was honestly pitiful.
The blueprints were divided into permanent and one-time. The highest level — 3-stars.
Richard did not have a specific target. He searched according to the highest standard of points exchange.
The next second, his eyes gleamed with eagerness.
Good stuff.
Hurricane Arrow Tower blueprints (permanent) — 3-stars. Exchange points: 200,000.
[Hurricane Arrow Tower]
[Level: 3-stars]
[Characteristics: 1. Arrows shot from the tower will deal wind magic damage.]
[2. Increases the flying speed of arrows by 40%, accuracy by 40%, and attack speed by 30%.]
[3. Increases the range of bows and crossbows by 100 meters.]
[4. Can install ten large-scale siege crossbows, increasing the range of large-scale siege crossbows by 300 meters.]
[Number of People the Basic Arrow Tower can Accommodate: 60 people]
[Construction Requirements: 50,000 units for gold coins, wood, stone, and iron ore, 500 units for crystal, 500 units for gemstones, and 500 units for mercury.]
[Required Workers: 100 people, advanced-level architect, 20 mages]
[Construction Time: 20 days]
It was an arrow tower with magic damage.
Although it was expensive to build, its attributes were ultimately worth the price.
He had the blueprint for the dragon-hunting crossbow in his hands. This way, he could have a place to place this killing weapon.
He had the combination of the arrow tower and the dragon-hunting crossbow.
This could extensively guarantee Twilight City’s safety. In the future, if they encounter a poisonous vulture invasion, the ground troop could do nothing.
It was fifty thousand points for one-time blueprints and 200,000 points for permanent blueprints.
Richard bought the permanent blueprints without hesitation.
After he kept them, he continued to flip through them.
There were indeed several blueprints for the construction of the territory. One could almost imagine all of them.
Windmills, mills, gardens, fountains, warehouses…
He didn’t find anything he needed urgently or was particularly precious. He didn’t rush to buy anything, so he opened up the strategic treasures section.
He had the experience of randomly choosing treasures in the Scarlet Council’s treasure warehouse.
Although these strategic treasures exchanged for points weren’t sour-rated, they looked somehow mediocre overall.
After he examined it for a long time, he finally found a piece of special equipment.
[Broken Steel Longsword]
[Level: 3-stars]
[Characteristics: Sturdiness increases by 100%. Sharpness increases by 100%. When attacking the opponent’s head, there is a 20% chance to trigger the Instant Death skill — Decapitation, killing the enemy directly.]
[Description: A longsword forged from a special material, possessing strapping characteristics.]
The attributes of the long sword are not complicated, but there is a chance to trigger the instant death skill — Decapitation.
This immediately caused the value of the long sword to soar.
A total of 200,000 points were required.
Richard directly bought it.
In this way, 1,260,000 points left from 160,000 points.
After he pondered for a long time, he still could not find anything satisfying, so he opened the resources panel.
[Ordinary-level resources, 1 point for 1 unit.]
[Rare-level resources, 100 points for 1 unit.]
The salary of the Scarlet Council elder allowed him to obtain 3,000 units of gems, crystals, and mercury each.
In addition, he initially had more than 1,000 units of gems left.
Rare-level resources could barely be considered valuable, but only if he didn’t repair the extraordinary hunter.
Currently, only one resource was left — sulfur.
Sulfur was the most commonly used rare resource in the dark abyss, hell, the undead, and the dungeons.
It contained a colossal amount of negative energy.
The construction of a unique building — Hero’s Altar, needed this rare resource.
Without hesitation, he directly exchanged all his remaining points for a rare-level resource — sulfur.
He exchanged a total of 1,689 units.
He exchanged extra points for ordinary materials without any waste.
After he exchanged all the points in his hands, he still had two free exchanges left.
After he thought for a while, he started to search again.
In the end, he spent a lot of time and finally found two 3-stars resource treasures — 100 acres of Russian olive seed forest and 100 sand barley.
Without any hesitation, he directly exchanged for them.
He exchanged all the ordinary points.
When Richard looked at the rewards on the table, he was in a great mood.
Without this dungeon, it was impossible to obtain so many treasures unless one risked great danger to explore the ancient ruins.
They would have drooled when they saw this scene if no other players were present.
Although the system selected from the entire team those players who entered the dungeon, the dungeon level was too high.
They could not even compare their obtained points to a fraction of his points.
Most of them could only exchange for 1-star items and 2-stars items. The price of 3-stars items was far beyond what the players could afford.
Not everyone could obtain 200,000 points other than the players on the ranking board.
On the other hand, many people gritted their teeth and spent 10 points to exchange for a rare-level troop’s lair.
After he exchanged for the ordinary points store, Richard looked at the more substantial golden points store.
When he opened it, his eyes immediately radiated unfathomable joy.
The golden points store did not have any troop’s lair or strategic equipment to exchange. But there were several special treasures. Moreover, they were all at 3-4 stars.
The items were a few levels higher compared to the ordinary points market.
Because there were too many items, Richard’s eyes were dazzled.
Half an hour later, a treasure entered his sight.
[Hero’s Certificate]
[Level: 4-stars]
[Characteristics: Can allow non-hero units to be directly converted into B-rank heroes.]
[Exchange Price — 50 gold points]
His breathing suddenly became rapid.
“B-rank hero!!
“F*ck! This thing can directly obtain a B-rank hero!!”
He instantly thought of many things.
Twilight City was currently in dire need of talent.
With this thing, he could ultimately nurture a core force.
He didn’t lack battle-type heroes.
The most abiding support are Gray, Blood Lich Gunter, and the fearless warrior Xina, whom he was about to subdue… In addition to the ancient dragon crystal in his system space, he could upgrade the skeleton blood dragon to an A-rank hero.
There were four powerful heroes.
However, in contrast, Twilight City was severely lacking in life-type heroes.
The research and development conducted by the advanced blacksmith, Adele, had given the bandaged mummy and the scorpion warrior a qualitative increase in their attack power.
It had allowed him to see the strength of life-type heroes directly.
And now, the winery, the food workshop, these few advanced buildings could already develop and produce top-tier items that could increase attributes.
However, there were no heroes to activate these characteristics.
Seeing so many good things he couldn’t use made him highly uncomfortable.
With the proof of heroes, it was starkly possible to cultivate the corresponding life-type heroes and develop and produce several high-tier items for Twilight City.
Richard’s thoughts began to wander, and he thought of more.
“In the future, Twilight City will have to rely on trade to solve the resource shortage problem.
“With the [Trading Market], there’s no need to worry about sales. The only thing we need to solve now is production.”
The Axe of the dead and the Dark Gargoyle had reached the rare-level. If he wanted to advance to a glorious-level troop, he would need a total of five million units of resources.
This was simply a strapping pressure for him.
Moreover, this was only the requirement for a single troop lair. Richard had dozens of troop lairs in his hands.
The resources required could be exaggerated if he wanted to upgrade these troop lairs.
It was difficult to earn so many troop lairs by other methods. Richard could only rely on trade.
When Richard thought of this, he waved his hand and directly exchanged for three hero’s certificates.
He originally wanted to use the free exchange authority to exchange for a few more. But he was immediately notified he had already reached the exchange limit.
He prepared for limited purchases. So he was not disappointed.
Twilight City would soon have three more B-rank heroes, which made him feel great.
This kind of shopping with ample ammunition was honestly enjoyable.
He finally experienced the joy of continuous buying.
Now, he still had 21 gold points. And four free exchanges left.
He continued to look at the mall.
