After handing over the prisoners to others, Audrey happily stored all the blasted equipment into the spatial treasure.
"Father Emperor, indeed, if we want to get rich, we have to target such large-scale forces. Their organized production of equipment is far richer than that of wild monsters. Fine-level equipment: 756 pieces; Enhanced-level equipment: 1563 pieces. Just this one battle, the wealth has already equated to half a cycle’s worth of our previous earnings."
Lin Rui nodded in agreement, as the Templar Order has a Blacksmith Shop and an Armory, continuously organizing production with ample armament, the blast fall of equipment indeed surpasses any wild monster forces the territory army has encountered before.
And these were just from the blast fall of Lauren Fortress’s defenders; the internal treasury’s wealth would be even more plentiful.
This treasury was a must-have for Lin Rui, so he looked at Audrey: "How is it? Have your undead found the hidden treasury yet?"
Audrey nodded happily: "Found it, found it. Before the battlefield was even cleared, an undead smoothly found the entrance. But there’s a slight problem getting inside."
Soon, under Audrey’s guidance, Lin Rui saw the slight problem she mentioned.
Before the passageway deeply embedded into the mountain, a gigantic Dark Hydra was chained up.
Everyone was surprised to see this dark giant beast, covered in scales and armor.
Especially Lu Weite from the Lusen Chamber of Commerce, whose tone was filled with shock: "What’s happening? Why is there a Tier Six champion unit from the Underground City here? Could the Templar Order have a passageway leading to the Underground City?"
A Tier Six Heroic Spirit-level Hydra isn’t much of an issue for the territory. The Sea of the Dead might not work on its nine heads, but Su Xi made a slight gesture, and the Blood-colored Demon Shadow cut off all its nine heads.
Lu Weite felt slightly uneasy and cautiously looked at Lin Rui, expressing his concern: "Lord Lin Rui, a Dark Hydra might be nothing, but its appearance is an extremely ominous sign. The Dark Knight Order might have hidden strengths that even our chamber couldn’t detect. They might have discovered the Underground City and have been exploring the Underworld."
Lin Rui waved his hand, feeling quite indifferent. He had already considered such matters before deploying troops.
Which force doesn’t have some hidden reserves? Just like the Lusen Chamber of Commerce, could the Templar Order fully understand the depths of the Lusen Chamber?
The Golden Pansy Domain is even more so, a realm whose reserves are as deep as the sea. Apart from Lin Rui, hardly anyone comprehends the might of the Wutong trait.
If any force takes on the displayed strength of Lin Rui to oppose the Golden Pansy Domain, they would undoubtedly crash into an iceberg. The power Lin Rui displays is only the tip of the iceberg of the Golden Pansy Domain’s true might. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on novelFɪre.net
Thus, Lin Rui nonchalantly said: "If there are hidden strengths, we’ll clear them all. If there truly is an entrance to the Underground City, it might not be a bad thing for us. It will only increase the total wealth we gain from this battle, enhancing the territory’s strength."
Lu Weite was truly shaken, as the Lord of the Golden Pansy Territory exhibited a calm and confidence that seemed to herald the rise of a mighty force. Only a faction with this mindset and poise could sweep through all and rise as an unstoppable power.
Audrey’s violet gemstone-like eyes gleamed brightly: "Darling, you looked so handsome at this moment. I feel like you’re glowing."
Su Xi threw the spoils to her, speaking in a cold tone: "Stop being lovestruck, let the undead scout the way."
Audrey glanced at the items blasted, then suddenly filled with delight, disregarding Su Xi’s attitude.
[Life Absorption · Consumable Item: The Dark Hydra can extract the enemy’s blood literally and use it to restore its own life efficiently. Using it can grant an evil unit the ability to absorb life, drawing 9% of the inflicted damage as its own Life Value.]
She unhesitatingly bestowed it upon the Dark Temple Warrior.
This unit is nearing a squad level, and has been continuously strengthened within the [Ring of Blood Soul], soon to break into the Heroic Spirit level.
They can divide the damage evenly with their trait, resulting in low damage taken each time. If there’s a 9% Life Value absorption, although the percentage is small, it is enough to balance and gradually restore their state.
Unfortunately, this item can only be used by evil units. Otherwise, giving it to Holy Grail Knights or Su Xi would also be a good choice.
Audrey joyfully wrapped her arms around Lin Rui’s: "Father Emperor, I feel my luck has improved recently, as if the Lucky Lady and the Goddess have stopped targeting me. Look at today’s battle, not only did the [Ring of Blood Soul] absorb a large amount of flesh, but even the units were strengthened."
Lin Rui discreetly glanced at Su Xi, clearly, while some enjoy peace, others bear the burden of progress.
"Perhaps it’s because you’ve been visiting the Goddess Hall frequently to connect emotionally with Yuyu. This is a good thing, quickly send the undead to continue searching inside."
Audrey, without thinking further, gestured with her hand, and over a thousand elite undead soldiers under her command swiftly streamed into the tunnel.
Soon, Audrey took a deep breath: "Lord, things aren’t looking good."
"The interior of the mountain has been hollowed out, below is a vast expanse of lava, with only a stone bridge linking a stone island in the center of the lava. But the stone island below is also supported by cooled magma."
