(Author’s Note: The previous chapter was updated last night. After an hour, there were a few hundred words of change. If you read it early last night, you can take a look at it again.)

Richard looked at the system notification and raised his eyebrows.

[Hero recruitment mission — break the G.o.d’s curse in her body and break the bloodline seal.]

‘Why does she let me slaughter the G.o.d??’

He looked at Xina deeply.

‘What kind of secret is the Krina tribe hiding?? Why would the G.o.ds curse them??’

He felt as if he had touched upon something extraordinary.

‘Mortals are qualified to be cursed by the G.o.d?… A divine spell could destroy even the soul… Why would she need to spend so much effort?’

As his thoughts raced, he looked directly into the lady warrior’s eyes.

“I sensed an unimaginable power in the seal of your body. Do you know the origin of that power?”

Xina’s heart shook, and her gaze became more subtle.

“Lord, you can honestly sense that power?”

She sighed after she said that.

“That is a secret only the clan leader can know…”

On his bloodied face was a hint of unwillingness.

“This…” Richard narrowed his eyes.

There was indeed a problem. An unspeakable secret is involved in this matter. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have concealed it from a cursed clan member.

However, Richard didn’t have anything to worry about, so he went straight to the point.

“The seal in your body has something to do with G.o.ds.”

Xina’s heart jolted, and as she recalled something, her eyes turned blank.

“I knew it… I knew it…”

Richard slightly dissented when he saw this. It seemed that the lady warrior had also noticed it.

His mood became delicate after he thought for a while. Perhaps, this was the genuine difficulty of the advanced hero recruitment mission.

Richard obtained the three heroes in his hands in different ways.

Adele was young and easy to fool.

Gray had a clear target because of the black gold system’s notification. Moreover, he was exemplary lucky to obtain the mummy’s heart, which allowed the other party to be born.

Otherwise, it would have been quite a good harvest if he could obtain a C-rank hero.

Gunter was even more unexpected. The dungeon contained a vast opportunity, and without the restriction of the rules, there were all sorts of possibilities.

Now, Xina had let him experience the difficulty of a high-level hero recruitment quest.

To break the seal set by the G.o.ds, was this a joke?…

Richard waved his hand. He ordered someone to remove the chains on Xina’s body and restore this lady’s freedom.

The lady warrior was still startled even though he ordered the shackles to be removed.

Xina finally regained her senses after a long time.

She looked at Richard, and her eyes reconquered firmness.

She would break it even a G.o.d’s curse! Absolutely!

The fierce aura of the lady warrior became more and more striking.

Even without looking at anything else, just from this aura alone, one could tell that this was a warrior who had experienced countless b.l.o.o.d.y battles.

The pain did not make her frown. But her gaze still was determined.

Xina bowed slightly to Richard.

“Descendant of the Krina tribe, Xina Krina. Greetings to you. May the desert protect you.”

Richard nodded lightly.

“Lord of Twilight City, Richard, May the desert bless you.”

Xina stood up and glanced around. She picked up a sharp piece of gravel from the ground.

Then, she pulled it with her palm.

The blood instantly dyed the gravel red.

Richard’s heart skipped a beat. He looked at the lady veteran with some confusion.

This person was ruthless and didn’t say much…

Surprisingly, the blood in Xina’s hand gradually condensed into a thumb-sized crystal.

This crystal was hand-gla.s.s clear and did not have the slightest tinge of crimson.

Xina’s expression changed slightly. She withdrew her palm after the crystal formed.

While she ignored the rapidly healing wound, she handed the blood-condensed crystal to Richard.

“Lord Richard, other than hunting, this is the source of food in the Oasis City…”

Richard looked at her heartily.

‘Hiding things in blood?

‘It seemed that this tribe had a lot of hidden things…’

After Richard took it, he opened the attribute panel.

[Sand Wheat (Resource Treasure)]

[Level: 3-stars]

[Range: 15 acres]

[Characteristics: Must be planted in the desert. Requires a certain amount of water to irrigate. Ripens once a month.]

[Description: A resource treasure exclusive to the desert.]

‘Three-star treasure?

’15 acres of sand wheat?’

Surprise filled Richard’s eyes.

It was a food that ripens once a month!!

He finally got what he wanted after going through many twists and turns.

This trip was not in vain.

The corners of his mouth frizzed.

Moreover, sand wheat was more suitable as a staple food than sand dates.

The development of a territory could not always rely on hunting.

Fifty-one thousand people might be possible, but 50,000 or 100,000 people still depended on hunting.

The most stable income was only farming.

Richard had been begging for these precious resources and treasures all along.

His farming plan finally took a big step forward after more than half a month.

It was so comfortable…

Gunter, who searched the lizardmen for loot, finally found something and rushed over.

He handed him a piece of badly weathered parchment.

“Lord, I found this under the giant monitor lizard mounted by the lizard commander…”

As Richard reached out to take it, he directly flipped through it.

The parchment had an ancient yellow hue as if buried in an ancient tomb for thousands of years. It could break if one is not careful.

It was recorded in strange writing. But because of many broken places, several gaps and only a few could be seen in the records.

[Broken Parchment]

[Level: None]

[Description: It seemed to contain some information about the ancient wizard tower, but the content was damaged too much and lost its original appearance.]

Richard flipped through the map a few times. But he did not find the map he had imagined. He could not help but feel a bit bewildered.

“Xina, is there no location of the ruins on this map?”

The weak Xina raised her head and looked at the sun sinking into the desert.

“At dusk and dawn, the map will appear…”

As soon as she finished speaking, the last sunlight ray in the sky disappeared.

The black magic mace which had not reacted a moment ago in Richard’s hand, now emitted pale yellow light.

The broken map in Xina’s hand also floated at the same time.

In the next second, the light from the black magic mace covered the parchment.

Later, the broken parchment suddenly became translucent. In the center, a map made of blue energy appeared.

A picture of a round tower that floated up and down was at the center of the map. It was indeed miraculous.

Xina didn’t look surprised as if she had seen it before.

She pointed at the undulating blue round tower.

“This is where the ruins are. It’s ten hours away from us. I built the city in the oasis because of these ruins…”

She was not interested in owning her territory. Oasis City would not have existed if it were not for the fact she wanted to break the seal.

Richard was very interested.

“Are there any powerful forces around the ruins?”

Xina shook her head.

“The wind and sand in that area are very fierce. No one exists. I’ve been there more than ten times.But I haven’t seen anyone else…”

The glow in Richard’s eyes flickered.

Ten hours was not a long journey.

Moreover, the ancient ruins were something the “Shining Era’s” official website focused on.

Often a vast number of treasures from the Ancient Era hid inside.

It was similar to a dungeon.

However, unlike a dungeon, everyone could enter the ruins without restrictions.

If one were willing, it would not be a problem for tens of thousands of people to explore the ruins.

In a week, the large-scale dungeon was about to open…

How many people would be able to block Twilight City’s attack if they could obtain a few more gargoyle-like lairs?

The light in Richard’s eyes blazed.

He wanted to make those top-tier lords lower their heads in front of him.

If he wanted these ruins, even if G.o.d came, he wouldn’t be able to keep them.

At this moment, the light of the black magic mace in Richard’s hand suddenly dimmed.

The map revealed on the parchment also disappeared at the same time.

It was as if nothing had happened just now.

Richard opened the attribute panel again. This time, the black magic mace finally revealed its attributes.

[Black Magic Mace]

[Level: Special]

[Temporary Solidification Skill: s.p.a.ce Freezing (Beyond A-rank) — Freezes the s.p.a.ce within a kilometer radius. Only the caster can move freely. Duration: 20 seconds. Can be released 1/3 times.]

[Characteristics: The key to the Resplendent Wizard Tower.]

[Description: You can use it to open the gate of the Wizard Tower.]

‘Beyond A-rank skill? s.p.a.ce freeze?’

Richard’s heart leaped a thump.

“If this thing is permanently solidified, it’s surely a 3-star. No, it’d 4-star strategic equipment.”

Fortunately, the lizard commander did not use them all 3 times. Otherwise, he would indeed hang that lizardman and whip its corpse.

But even if he could only use it once, its value was immeasurable.

It was a powerful trump card that could be used at a critical moment to change the outcome of a battle.
