A notification suddenly rang in his ear. He returned to his senses.
[Ding! The rotten swamp has devoured enough flesh and soul energy. The system has upgraded the swamp from level 4 to 5. That has expanded the range by 20 kilometers. Current Range: 60 kilometers in diameter.]
[The maximum number of troop lairs has increased by 20. Current Number of Troop Lairs: 50. Maximum Number: 70. Current Number of Troop Lairs: 22,000 (Radiant Moon 3-stars)]
[The system will upgrade the level of the self-produced troop lair from Radiant Moon 3-stars to transcendence. You have produced troop lairs, and you can upgrade this to Transcendent s-stars. You can upgrade after consuming flesh and soul energy.]
[Ding~ The system has upgraded the rotten swamp hero–Thor (Spear of Slaughter) to level 23. You can level up to transcendence. You can upgrade all skills by one level up.]
The system has promoted the rotten swamp to level 5!
Richard looked excited.
He laid the plan out for so long. He even slayed vastitude of troops from the Decay King and the Knight God. He had only advanced to level five.
He could simply describe this difficulty as odd!
But no matter what, this time, he was finally satisfied!
Transcendent!
The rotten swamp could produce transcendent troops!
What did this mean?
The foundation of Twilight City grew by leaps and bounds!
More importantly, he does not need to spend resources to recruit the troops inside! Power would be endless as long as there was enough flesh and blood!
The rotten swamp had become one of his strongest trump cards!
The killing weapon he had nurtured for so long had finally taken shape!
He couldn’t suppress the emotions in his heart and left the room. He arrived at the rotten swamp.
He passed through the space gate of the Eternal Land and stepped into the blood-mist-shrouded area. Richard immediately felt a sense of joy in his heart.
The surrounding blood mist revolved around him. This scarlet purgatory welcomed its ruler.
Richard could feel the blood mist in the rotten swamp thickened. The power inside became increasingly terrifying.
It would take an ordinary person six to seven hours to walk through on flat ground.
It would be a place he could not pass through if he came to this area.
The god of deception lost his authority. He could no longer use deception divine power to cover the god’s ancient tree in the center of the rotten swamp.
The god’s ancient tree bore golden fruits.
However, this did not affect the hunting plan in the rotten swamp because the golden lion was still there.
Greed was the greatest enemy of intelligent life. There was no cure for it.
The lives that had tasted the sweetness of the golden fruit became even crazier because of the exposure of the god’s ancient tree.
The god’s ancient hasn’t finished its transformation, but it already showed promising powers. That caught Richard’s attention.
The fluctuation of life force affected the lives that approached the god’s ancient tree and those who wanted to seize the golden fruits without exception.
The scene was extremely terrifying.
One who stepped within 100 meters of it would fall into the river of time. They would age and die in a few breaths. Their dried corpse could turn into the residue.
No one could get close to the god’s ancient tree.
That would also dissolve the long-range soldiers who used arrows and magic to attack it. They were like the soldiers who stepped into the 100-meter range.
This scene was terrifying.
Richard’s heart palpitated at the sight.
The god’s ancient tree emitted an aura that could make one feel a terrible curse on the soul.
That was an extremely evil existence.
This Boss devoured the Chaos Divine Sin’s heart. Who knew what kind of changes would happen?
Divine sins were not gods. Sins did not control authority and relied on their divinity and power to survive.
Therefore, the gods had lost most of their power at this moment. Some hadn’t knocked these evil existences down to the ground.
However, something must have suppressed a part of their power, and they were no longer as destructive due to the restrictions of the rules. Even so, they were still mightier than the gods despite a force stripping their authority.
But this information did not reach Richard. Or else his mood would have been even higher.
Richard observed the god’s ancient tree for a few minutes. A golden fruit happened to fall from the abomination tree.
The fruit didn’t fall to the ground directly. Instead, it arced across the sky and landed outside the forbidden death zone.
The greedy creatures in the surroundings immediately rushed forward like crazy. A tragic conflict erupted.
The battle lasted for nearly an hour. The rotten swamp had increased the speed of devouring corpses. They were not in a hurry to consume them. They piled up into small hills.
A group of ferocious dungeon centaurs eventually snatched the golden fruit.
The centaurs used three top-tier troops or more to bag the golden fruit away. The centaur commander swallowed the golden fruit.
The thick blood mist quietly faded when he swallowed it. That allowed most people to see the centaur commander.
The commander swallowed it, and his aura immediately soared.
This scene caused the surrounding troops to become even more fanatical. They incessantly squeezed and tried to occupy a good position.
Richard interestingly observed the scene. The transparent Deception God wore a black cloak and quietly arrived.
“Lord,” Something must have stripped his power and authority. He bowed respectfully. His attitude was similar to the Twilight City residents.
