Chapter 21 Gift Pack Appears Again; Castle Becomes City-State!

The blood moon has risen high in the sky, with the clouds obscuring certain parts of the

moon.

Tens of thousands of Sacred Night Bugs streaked across the sky.

As soon as the Sacred Night Bug came into contact with the darkness, the beasts in the depths of the darkness trembled and began charging into the endless darkness!

Wherever the Sacred Night Bugs went, the trees withered, the mountains and rivers dried up, and the vegetation crumbled into nothingness.

The wild beasts howled as they frantically hid and fled in all directions!

Unfortunately, it was all useless!

The fleeing speed was not even one-ten-thousandth of the Sacred Night Bugs!

No other being in the entire continent can surpass the speed of Sacred Night Bugs!

They roared in pain upon contact with the Sacred Night Bugs!

In an instant, the beast was reduced to mere bones!

Every area that the Sacred Night Bugs passed by turned desolate!

Tens of thousands of Sacred Night Bugs plundered the endless darkness with wild abandon.

They became more and more excited when the place was boundlessly unknown!

All wild beasts, regardless of their level, were nothing more than food for the swarm.

They were barely capable of fighting against the swarm.

At the same time, a large number of different species of beasts were reduced to bones, and Su Hao—who was in the Holy Light Castlereceived the rewards from the Sacred Night Bugs.

[Killed a level 8 Wild Cow. Obtained 6 energy stones! 1,000 gold coins!)

[Killed a level 9 Giant Ape. Obtained 3 mutant crystals! 1,500 gold coins!]

[Killed a level 10 Giant Python. Obtained 100,000 gold coins, 8 energy stones, and 1 mutant crystal!]

An endless stream of reward information appeared in Su Hao’s vision, and the number of dead beasts in the castle were also increasing!

There was an endless variety of beasts, and more continued to stack up. Even the rewards were getting richer and richer!

At that moment, a dazzling golden light enveloped Su Hao’s body.

Moments later, a surge of energy stronger than ever before began to course into his body.

When the golden light dissipated, he had already advanced to level two. Su Hao then looked at his personal information.

(Castle Lord: Su Hao]

(Castle Name: Holy Light Castle]

(Lord Strength: Level 2)

(Castle Level: Level 5 castle]

(Castle Troop Type: Sacred Night Bug (unique troop type)]

(Castle Buildings: Level 2 Summoning Altar x 1, Level 2 Holy Healing Spring x 1, Level 5 arrow towers x 2.]

(Gold Coins: 20.33 million gold coins]

(Energy Stones: 281]

[Mutant Crystals: 59]

The energy level of level two was more than twice that of level one, and both his resistance and health bar had doubled too!

Although Su Hao was only at level two at that moment, he was already able to handle the lower-class beasts by himself. However, there was no need for Su Hao to do so, since he had the Sacred Night Bugs to do everything.

Nevertheless, it was still necessary for him to level up.

When Su Hao saw everything, he was convinced that he would have the highest overall score after the invasion of darkness.

The rating was based on the number of wild beasts killed by the lords during the darkness invasion, as well as the sum of various attributes in the lords’ personal information.

Whoever had the most points would get the highest score.

At that moment, another gift pack came into Su Hao’s view!

Su Hao lowered his gaze as soon as he saw what it was.

As expected, a pay-to-win gift pack popped up when he reached level two.

It was already the third gift pack that he had received before the castellans ‘ratings even started!

[999 God-level gift pack: 18.88 million!]

[Resources: 10 million stacks of wood, 10 million stacks of stone, 10 million stacks of refined iron, 5 million tons of coal, 100 sets of soldier armor, 50 stacks of soldier shields and swords, 50 stacks of shovels!)

[Do you want to purchase it?]

[Yes/No]

Su Hao’s eyes widened in surprise when he saw that but there wasn’t much expression on his face.

The resources in the gift pack were rather abundant, and the number of each resource was 10 million sets!

The implication behind such a luxurious allocation of resources meant that Su Hao would be able to build a city-state!

A city-state was not an assemblage of just one castle—it was a few castles!

A first class city-state had a main castle and two sub-castles.

The main castle was naturally the main castle lord’s residence, while the sub-castle was where the lord who had surrendered to the main lord. Furthermore, after one’s castle upgraded to a city-state, there would be a self-built residential area for the militia.

Most importantly, one could build landmark buildings in one’s city-state, and the type of landmark buildings were a prerogative for the lord to decide.

Su Hao planned to build a 100-story Skyscraper Tower, as the Skyscraper Tower he built in his previous life could be used to train his troops and various other rare beasts.

The Skyscraper Tower required a lot of construction materials, which required three years to complete in Su Hao’s past life.

However, with the one gift pack containing ten million sets of materials, it was already enough for him to build a luxury version of the Skyscraper Tower, which was luxurious because each city lord’s troop type was not unique.

Whenever the fight against the invasion of darkness ended, the castle lords would get a chance at the lottery.

That lottery provided a chance for them to get a troop type, so it was very common for a lord to have more than ten troop types in the later stages.

In his previous life, Su Hao had more than 70 units that ranged from B to SSS.

Concurrent to that, the bugs continued to devour and multiply exponentially. By the time they returned, he had to have more than one Holy Healing Spring for them to rest.

By then, one Holy Healing Spring would not be able to contain so many of them.

With the advent of other troops in the future, Su Hao had been thinking of constructing a Skyscraper Tower.

However, the materials required to build a Skyscraper Tower could easily reach up to tens of millions, so the gift pack allowed Su Hao not to worry about a lack of materials.

With that in mind, Su Hao did not hesitate in the slightest and immediately chose to buy it. [Congratulations on successfully purchasing the 999 God-level pay-to-win gift pack!]

(18.88 million gold coins spent!)

(1.45 million gold coins remaining!)

Then, countless resources appeared in the center of the castle.

There were so many of them that it was difficult to even fit them into the warehouse.

Upon seeing that scene, Su Hao smiled slightly and distributed all weapons to the militia.

The 50 militiamen donned the white armor and were equipped with silver swords and shields, making them look so much more spirited.

Beside the Holy Healing Spring, the arrow tower, and the Summoning Altar were soldiers in white armor holding weapons and tools.

They did not complain at all and continued working hard to build everything!

Su Hao stood with his hands behind his back and observed everything.

He believed that his Holy Light City-State and Skyscraper Tower would be within reach as long as he obtained the metal, wood, water, fire, and earth elements to add to the construction of the castle before the invasion of darkness.
