Chapter 568

He hasn’t spent the resources he seized from the underground world.

He could not, so he immediately left the Lord’s mansion and went to the blacksmith shop.

He saw Sam with a messy hairstyle and only one arm as he entered the shop.

The man’s dark circles appeared he hadn’t slept for half a year. Dark gray dirt stained his clothes like he had dug coal all his life.

!!
He looked supremely disheveled, although his mental state was extremely high. And one could not ignore his sparkling eyes.

Sam immediately bowed when he saw Richard.

“Lord! My research has succeeded!”

He turned around and followed the scorpion warrior after he said that.

“The scorpion warrior has received the greatest enhancement!”

His voice was trembling.

Richard subconsciously looked at the scorpion warrior, and his eyes lit up.

The scorpion warrior before had already grown to three meters tall.

A thick layer of armor seemed to have covered its body.

It gave off the feeling of a human-like tank. It could crush the human heavy cavalry before it once it charged.

The most eye-catching thing was the pair of vast iron pincers.

At this moment, the iron pincers were like pure steel pincers. They reflected the unique luster of metal. The dark red patterns on the surface made up for it indicated that glorious treasure, the original fire has reinforced it.

The curved scorpion tail on its back seemed of metal, like a steel whip connected piece by piece. The sharp scorpion tail was like the spearhead of a spearman that reflected dark blue light.

Poison.

From the looks of it, the strengthened scorpion warriors were not on the same level as the scorpions before the reinforcement.

In a battle, the reinforced one could take on five once.

Richard opened the attribute panel with anticipation.

[Scorpion Warrior]

[Level: 9]

[Potential: Rare 3-stars]

[Description: An undead creature sealed in the pharaoh’s pyramid. One isn’t willing to be stung by it.]

Richard felt his heart beat faster after he finished reading.

Wasn’t this too damn strong?

Transcendent Attack technology had simply made the scorpion warrior reach an abnormal level…

“Wasn’t this even a rare-level soldier?”

He felt that as long as it was not a flying soldier, the scorpion warriors could kill ordinary crown soldiers…

This attack power had already reached an absurd level.

Coupled with that exaggerated body size, if they were to fight head-on, they would simply kill anyone who stood in their way.

Although the stone statues of the dead were top-tier soul-devouring troops, one couldn’t abandon the ground troops of Twilight City.

A perfect military system was one where the sea, land, and air worked together.

Although there was no water in the desert, there was also a sea of sand. It could not develop a navy… It was just a little different.

Richard suppressed his excitement and asked in a solemn tone.

“Sam, how many resources do I need to strengthen a Scorpion Warrior?”

That was the key. It would be too expensive in the end if he developed the technology of the poisonous scorpion. It would be a joke if he couldn’t afford it.

Sam could feel Richard’s joy, and he was even happier.

“Lord, the reinforcement of the scorpion warriors consumes steel. It requires ordinary steel to be forged into refined steel to reinforce to this extent… Currently, each scorpion warrior will consume 50,000 units of iron ore.”

“50,000 units of iron ore… One?”

Richard was relieved.

This price was very cost-effective for battle power.

Although large-scale cultivation would consume tons of resources, it was still an ordinary resource.

He had to consider whether there was a need to nurture them on a large scale if he had to consume rare resources.

Everyone was desperate for rare resources.

Taking out another portion would simply be enough to kill him.

He opened the system panel and glanced. The total number of scorpion warriors was 141.

Because it has always been a single-troop lair running

Therefore, he can maintain them at a low level.

But now, he could count them.

It was not too much. Two to three large teams were enough to protect Twilight City.

After all, the recruitment of rare troops did not require rare resources.

He could still bear it.

He did not waste any time and directly opened the [Trading Market] to search for the lair of the scorpion warriors.

He had bought the Scorpion Warriors from the trading market.

The initial level was only elite. A few people cared about elite-level troop lairs now that the players’ levels had increased. They searched a large area.

Richard didn’t hesitate and bought 19. He had exactly 20, added the one he already had.

He would use something more ferocious since it was a berserk weapon. He could not waste this Transcendent Attack technology.

Next, Sam had to study the attack technology of the stone statue of the dead.

The other troops would not have a chance for the time being.

The new expansion pack was about to begin.

Increasing power was the right thing to do.

He directly upgraded them to rare level after he obtained 19 troop lairs.

Then, he felt sparingly helpless. There was a 7-day cooldown after leveling up the troop lair. He could not level up continuously, so he could wait for next week.

Sam spoke in a small voice, sparingly bashful and nervous when he saw Richard did not speak for a long time.

“Lord… Can I ask you to do me a favor…”

Richard regained his senses and found it funny to see his blushing and confused expression.

“It’s okay. Just say what you have to say.

“You’ve made such a great contribution to Twilight City. I will reward you accordingly.”

Sam’s face turned red, and he stammered for a long time before he said it.

“Lord, I… Can I invite you to be my witness?

“I’m getting married to Shanna next month…”

Richard thought back to what had happened to the other party, and he felt a little strange.

What a thoughtful person.

He nodded happily.
