311 Chapter 263: Reinforcing Treasure, Privatizing the Underground World [1/3]
At the mansion’s front yard.
“Lord, we have calculated the number of casualties.
“Mummy guardians have lost five teams, bandaged mummies have lost three, sand condensation archers have lost two, rare-level undead soldiers have lost two, and skeleton demons have lost three…
“A total of 14 units died in the battle.”
Richard’s expression didn’t change much when he heard Gray’s report.
Over 10,000 kobold soldiers attacked the city and created a vast commotion.
However, in such a crazy attack, only 100 people from Twilight City died.
In total, the casualty ratio had reached an exaggerated one to one hundred.
It was a brilliant achievement.
Apart from the geographical advantage of the city wall, the remarkable contributor was the strapping battle power of A-rank heroes and the Sand Regeneration skill of the troops.
There was no doubt about the strength of A-Class heroes. With the troop’s cooperation, they could block the enemy’s offensive.
As for the Sand Regeneration skill, where the enemy did not have a spellcasting troop, it would preserve several troops.
It had become an invincibility skill that the opponent could not break.
The Twilight City’s troops had something other troops did not have–they only died in battle but were not injured.
Due to the existence of Sand Regeneration, even if injured soldiers lost an arm or a leg, as long as they did not die in battle, they could activate Sand Regeneration to repair themselves after the war.
Every time they calculated the number of casualties, Richard had to sigh at the overbearing nature of his overlord talent.
Half of the reason why Twilight City could develop so well was due to the nerve-racking skill–of Sand Regeneration.
Richard retracted his scattered thoughts and said seriously.
“Gray, although there weren’t many casualties this time, the battle had exposed many problems.
“The archer’s shooting range is not enough. The troop’s front and back connections are not enough. And the cooperation between the various types of soldiers in the city defense is stiff. All of this needs you, heroes, to master.”
Richard’s tone was solemn.
“Although the giant alchemy cannons, we did not use the Hurricane Arrow Tower this time, and we have not fully exerted our power. Everyone must be aware of this.
“We need to optimize our defense and military arrangement.
“It was easy to say that guarding the city wall was a simple task, but it was like a sophisticated instrument.
“If there were a problem with one of the segments, the entire team would be affected.
“And in this war, he had seen too many shortcomings…”
Gray immediately held his chest.
“Lord, we’ll make adjustments immediately. We won’t let you down.”
Richard nodded and didn’t say anything more.
After Gray left in a hurry, he looked up at the bright moon in the sky. Thoughts flooded his mind.
Twilight City faced countless challenges.
The enmity of the kobold god, the upcoming instance dungeon, and even the future connection of the desert of death to other dimensional planes… None of those things were that simple.
In addition, a god’s kingdom waited for him to explore the land of the broken laws, and a part of a god’s body hid inside.
Previously, there was a dungeon at the place where Alves died that imprisoned a strapping hero–the Dark Lord.
They could get the imprisoned hero as long as they could topple down the dungeon.
The Dark Lord regarded the underground world as its exclusive domain. One of the overlords, the gray dwarves, also eyed the lord covetously and tried to find a way to deal with it.
In addition, Richard had yet to explore the ancient ruins of the remaining eight bronze doors–the Resplendent Wizard Tower.
He had planned to visit the Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce in Solan City but lost time.
He still had to think of a way to protect the agricultural area to prevent it from battle destruction in the future.
Richard couldn’t help but get a headache while he pondered on all this.
His thoughts cleared up after he took a few deep breaths.
The greatest danger now was the threat the kobold god brought.
It was true that it forced the other party to retreat this time, but when they came down, they would bring a supremely strapping troop. At the same time, they would be more prepared.
“This time, we must obtain sufficient benefits from this instance dungeon.”
“It’s best to prepare a few substantial deadly weapons that can resist the descent of gods.”
Richard’s mind began to race.
Various rare pieces of equipment were exchanged for points as long as he obtained enough benefits in the dungeon. He could deal with the kobold god.
Even though the other party was a god and had several believers.
However, Twilight City took a lot of work to match.
Withdrawal and surrender would never be his choice.
Two maids walked out of the hall with pale faces just as he thought of a plan.
“My Lord, Miss Emily has fainted!”
Richard spun around.
“What happened?”
The two maids were on the verge of tears as they hurriedly said.
“After the evil god appeared, Miss Emily suddenly became very weak.
“I couldn’t hold on any longer, and she fainted. We…we didn’t know what happened either…”
Richard didn’t say anything more when he saw how flustered the two were. He quickly walked in.
These days, the once demigod Emily had been very obedient, which he honestly liked.
He genuinely treated her like his daughter.
He was not in a hurry to let the young girl recover since he considered her memory loss.
Richard planned to recuperate her for a while longer so that she could build up enough emotional ties with the Twilight City before she could improve its strength.
That way, even if the other party recovered her memory, he would not say resentment or dissatisfaction with Twilight City.
