He might be able to get a warehouse full of treasures, dragon eggs, and artifacts as long as he opened the door in Arcana Hall…

Richard seemed to be full of endless temptation at this moment.

He took two deep breaths to suppress the emotions in his heart.

The closest moment to success was also in the moment to failure. Richard deeply agreed with this sentence.

He was not in a hurry to act. He looked away from the building engraved with countless magic runes.

He looked at the glorious-level magic puppets and the scattered body fragments of the mummies around him.

A day and two nights of battle had yielded fruitful results. However, there were also many casualties.

Not only were the blood-colored mummies used to scout the way turned into corpses.

During their clash, the glorious-level heavy sword warriors sliced the 15 giant monitor lizard mummies using their 15-turn-a-second sword kill.

Even the number of bandaged mummies had dropped to three small teams.

It was the battle where Twilight City had lost the most, and credits to the Sand Transformation, a skill that dealt physical damage.

If it hadn’t been for the Sand Transformation, even a large troop would be insufficient to kill these heavy sword warriors.

The glorious-level troops had already reached another level of strength.

However, it was all worth it.

Richard felt better when he looked at the broken bodies of the magic puppets and the gemstones scattered all over the ground.

He waved his hand and ordered the troops to dismantle all the magic puppets and pull out the gemstones from their chests.

A hundred glorious-level magic puppets contributed a total of 3,000 gemstones.

Including the gemstones he had obtained from killing the magic puppets, the total number in his hands had reached an exaggerated 10,000 units.

It was a heart-pounding harvest.

“Are these the ruins? This harvest is simply startling… It’s a pity I didn’t pick up any dragon eggs on the way. Otherwise, I would have scored 100 points.”

Richard’s mood was high.

But it was not over yet. The genuine harvest still awaits.

He glanced at the tall building used to store materials in the Arcana Hall a hundred meters away.

The passage to the outside world and the central crystals needed by the fire elemental lords were here.

At this time, His excitement rose that he was about to open the dragon trove.

“Rest for two hours. After the Sand Transformation, we’ll go in to explore!”

Richard summoned the two A-rank heroes guarding outside after he gave the orders.

“Gray, Gunter, you go in with me to explore. These are the ruins of the Resplendent Wizard Tower.

“Those wizards can’t honestly destroy their excessively powerful points. Maybe there’s something you can use inside.

“Since there is Sand Transformation anyway, it is not too late to run when there is danger.”

“As you wish.”

Richard did not hesitate after the troops restored their Sand Transformation. He waved his hand and asked a few bandaged mummies to come forward and open the warehouse door of Arcana Hall.

The ten-meter-high door was left ajar, and the bandaged mummies came forward and pushed.

‘Yiyaya!’

‘Yiyaya!’

The core building of the secondary door separated the left and right.

Thick layers of dust blew on their faces.

After the dust had partially subsided, they pronouncedly saw the scene in front of him.

The environment at the entrance was messy.

The people here seemed to have left in a hurry, supplies scattered all over the ground.

Storage racks made of all kinds of unknown materials collapsed on the ground. Under the corrosion of time, most of them had turned into ashes.

Only a few with magic runes engraved on them were still intact.

One could vaguely feel how much material in this warehouse was, from the usually twenty to thirty meters high storage racks.

However, other than these storage racks, the house interior was empty. There were no magic materials everywhere as imagined.

Warriors had taken a lot from this Resplendent Wizard Tower during the evacuation.

Richard could not help but feel a little disappointed. Didn’t these guys know to leave some for him?

“Gray, Gunter, you lead the team and search the entire building. Don’t miss any corner!

“Remember, focus on searching for the central crystal and the passage to leave the ruins. Once you encounter the enemy, retreat immediately.”

“As you wish!”

After the two mummy heroes answered, they brought their troops in one after another…

Richard wasn’t in a hurry to enter and waited quietly at the door.

Naturally, he did not need to do such a thing himself.

It didn’t take long for Gray to return and report excitedly.

“Lord, we found the central crystal that you mentioned…”

Richard’s spirit immediately roused.

Under Gray’s lead, they went around some buildings that obstructed their view and arrived at the core area of the warehouse.

A completely-white altar was on an empty space engraved with countless magic runes. Azure-colored magical power surged around it.

With the altar as the core, the magic power spread for several meters. It contained exceedingly majestic energy as if a volcano was about to erupt. It was so paralyzing this made people’s hearts tremble.

An azure crystal ball engraved with a mysterious pattern floated above the altar.

Countless blue magic power surged from the altar and poured into the crystal ball.

The unique flavor of the fantasy world seemed to fill the scene. It was exceedingly mysterious.

A transparent magic shield twenty meters in diameter covered the altar.

This anti-magic area was starkly ineffective against the crystal ball. And it was the only exception.

When Richard witnessed this magical scene, he opened the attribute panel excitedly.

[Azure Magic Crystal]

[Level: 3-stars

[Characteristics: The Arcana Hall center controls the interaction of all magic power and is the energy source for all magic circles.]

[Description: The Resplendent Wizard Tower was used to be made of extremely precious materials. Once the Azure Magic Crystal leaves the Arcana Hall, this area will collapse.

‘Is this the mission item?’

Richard was interested.

He reached out and touched it. That layer of the magic shield was like water. There was no obstruction.

He was not in a hurry to send someone to move the central crystal.

He turned his head and looked at his surroundings.

“Search the entire hall. Don’t miss any corner!”

It took so many days to annihilate those glorious-level magic puppets. He had not harvested, right?

The entire warehouse turned upside down half an hour later. Other than a few units of gemstones scattered on the ground, nothing else was there.

What made Richard frown more until this time was that he hadn’t found a way out of the ruins.

During his recent conversation with the Fire Elemental Lord, he had paid extra attention and talked about how to leave the ruins.

The Level 18 Boss promised to deliver them after they obtained their freedom.

Although he had the other party to back him up, Richard preferred to hold the initiative in his hands.

Under his will, even if he did not discover it, the troop would go over and over again. They would touch every corner and not miss a single gap.

However, there was still no harvest. The warehouse seemed to have been deliberately emptied…

After another two hours, a dark gargoyle unintentionally pressed an inconspicuous magic lamp.

‘Kacha!’

The mechanical sound rang out, and a perfectly intact wall in front of him suddenly split open.

‘Rumble!’

In an instant, dust flew up, and a secret chamber slowly revealed itself.

The enormous commotion immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding troops. After Richard had waited for a few hours, he received the news. His spirits mounted.

They finally found it.

There was a kind of excitement when the object of the first desire had passed away…

He immediately brought the troops over to check out the situation.

Before they even got close, they discovered two teams of dark gargoyles were closely guarding this place.

They separated the troops and looked at the scene.

The hidden area was divided into countless small houses. Some rooms even had empty shelves, and magic runes still flashed around them.

“Lord, this is the area where precious resources are stored…”

Gray looked around and saw the scattered gemstones. He said softly, “But they seem to have been taken away…”

Richard raised his eyebrows. “Bring some people in and search. Don’t forget the gemstones inside.”

Gray nodded immediately.

The troop entered and began to search carefully.

However, to his disappointment, although the troop kept taking out some gemstones, they could not find any strategic treasures or troop lairs.

Other than that, there were no gains.

Half an hour later, the gemstones on Richard’s status panel had an additional 1,000 units, but he still could not find the troop lairs he wanted.

After another ten minutes, Gray returned and shook his head at Richard.

“Lord, I didn’t find…”

‘Clang!’

Before it could finish its words, a dark gargoyle crashed into a house at the entrance of the hidden area.

‘Rumble!’

A secret door rose from the wall of the corridor.

A giant magic puppet appeared from their foot to their heads.

Richard and Gray turned their heads at the same time.

Their expressions immediately changed when they saw the two heavy swords in the magic puppet’s hands.

Two-star glorious-level heavy sword warriors still here?!!! And there were as many as three squads!

The power of these deadly magic puppets was superabundant. They have suffered a lot in the past two days.

“Alert!!!”

With an angry shout, the troop immediately entered the highest state of alert. They were ready to activate the Sand Transformation at any time.

Several dark gargoyles stood before Richard, ready to carry him away.

Everyone’s fixed their eyes on the magic puppets. Once they made a move, they would unleash their deadliest attack.

Xina also rushed over quickly. This warrior with powerful battle skills brazenly guarded Richard’s side.

Her gaze was as sharp as a blade!

Her body muscles tensed to the extreme. A paralyzing blow could erupt at any time.

‘Whoosh!’

‘Whoosh!’

Only Richard and Xena’s breath could be heard in the air.

It was dauntingly placid.

But the magic puppets still did not move after dozens of seconds.

If not for their new appearance and powerful aura, the two mummy heroes would have thought these puppets had been abandoned…

Richard seemed to have thought of something in the tense atmosphere, and his eyes lit up.

He separated the dark gargoyles in front of him and opened the attributes panel of the magic puppets.

His breathing quickened in the next moment.

[Heavy Sword Warrior]

[Level: 9]

[Potential: Glorious 2-stars]

[Status: In hibernation, you can inject spiritual power into the puppet to activate it. After binding it, you can direct the magic puppet to fight through spiritual power.]

[Description: A magic puppet created using a unique method. After activating it, it can fight for you.]

Richard’s mood instantly soared to the peak!

So, this was the genuine harvest after clearing the ruins…

Three squads of glorious-level troops!

This wave was flying into the sky!!!

He had personally experienced how dauntless these troops were.

That Spiral Storm attack was simply a super killer weapon.

When the two thick heavy swords rotated wildly at the speed of a helicopter’s wings, it was simply a nightmare for close battle.

The bandaged mummies were 99% immune from the physical damage using Sand Transformation. This damage could even lead to death. These magic puppets were not only powerful, but they were also deviant.

Now, this idiosyncratic troop he fought for two days and a night was about to become his trophy.

Surprise filled every cell.

“Made a colossal fortune!!!”
