In the sky, the sun emitted a blood-red light. Although it was not very dazzling, it gave people a strange feeling.
The red light shone on the blood-red waves on the ground. Upon closer inspection, it was actually not waves, but a "tide", a monster tide.
These monsters were emitting a faint flame. They were not very big, and their attack power was not very strong. However, their jumping ability was very shocking. However, their numbers were extremely terrifying. Everywhere they passed, it was all scorched earth, leaving no trace of life.
At the top of a hill far away from the monster horde, there was a small city. There were only a dozen or so people in the city. There were Magicians wearing light armor and wielding staffs. There were also heavily armored Warriors. There were also two huge metal dolls that were about ten meters tall. On the shoulders of the dolls, there were actually two Dark Gnomes.
The combat power of each of them far surpassed those small monsters, but in front of the terrifying monster horde, only a small "wave" was needed to turn these people into nothingness. In the face of such a terrifying number of enemies, everyone's faces were filled with nervousness and seriousness.
"Captain, why is there still no news from Naru's side?" a Magician asked anxiously.
The captain was a burly man, his eyes shining with shrewdness. Obviously, he was not a simple-minded person. "Don't worry, our mission is to defend for three hours. Previously, because the monster tide was too strong, we were forced to give up the Town of Kata. This small Lonely Mountain City is the last line of defense. Whether Naru succeeds or not, we must defend here, or else all the hard work before will be in vain. Regis, how long until the monsters reach here? "
A short and vigorous Warrior said, "At most five minutes."
"Everyone in position!" the burly man ordered. "This is our last hope, we must defend it!"
About five minutes later, the ground began to tremble horribly. Countless red monsters had already rushed down the mountain, swarming towards the small city.
The magic crystal cannons in the small city began to shoot out intense light, and the nearby monsters were all turned into nothingness. However, the empty space was filled up by the monsters behind in the blink of an eye. Whether it was the magic of the Magicians or the arrows of the Warriors, it was insignificant to this group of monsters that were like a tide.
Some monsters had already climbed or jumped onto the city wall, and casualties began to appear in the team.
When they saw that the situation was critical, the two metal puppets jumped down the wall without hesitation and rushed into the oncoming monster horde. They stomped the small monsters into meat paste, and the barrels in their palms continuously fired angry flames to harvest the enemies' lives. They attracted the monsters' attention, and the "wave" at the very front started to change its defense line.
Unfortunately, these two giant puppets did not manage to walk too far before they were drowned by the beast tide, leaving no trace behind.
Not only the captain, but everyone's eyes were red. In this battlefield, no one treated the two Goblins as cowardly and incompetent trash, but as true comrades and companions. The two Goblins also used their own actions to prove this point.
Seeing more and more monsters approaching the city wall, the team members revealed expressions of grief and indignation. Since they were going to die today, they might as well fight!
At the critical moment, a vast expanse of whiteness appeared on the side. It was the rushing river, like a roaring water dragon, swallowing a large number of small monsters. The spirits of the people who thought they were going to die were instantly lifted.
"Na Lu succeeded!"
"He successfully blasted open the embankment!"
Under the impact of the river, the group of monsters was split into two. The surviving team members fought bravely and finally lasted until the stipulated time of the mission.
Time flew, and everyone instantly turned into bursts of white light and disappeared.
At the same time, everyone in a certain 'dimension' heard a notification.
"The Red Team has completed the first chapter of the Blood Prelude! There are nine surviving team members with a C- rating. All team members will be rewarded with a Grade-C White Crystal Treasure Chest, which can be used to draw equipment or materials. As the first team to complete the chapter, everyone will be rewarded with an additional 10 Reputation Points and a Grade-C Amethyst Treasure Chest. "
It turned out that it was a dungeon in the magic game Endless Warrior Online. The entire process could be described as thrilling, but in the end, they had relied on their willpower and intelligence to complete the mission.
The first kill of the first chapter of the Blood Prelude was announced by the entire server, and it caused a lot of discussion among the players.
"There's actually someone who completed the first chapter of the Blood Prelude so quickly!"
"Our team has also tried the Blood Prelude, but we were all wiped out in less than ten minutes. The difficulty level is ridiculously simple. I wonder how the Red Team completed it? Should we go and ask them? "
"What's the use of asking them? They definitely won't tell you. Although the conditions to clear the dungeon are fixed, the map changes randomly. Even if the Red Team enters the dungeon again, they might not be able to complete it again in a different terrain."
"A Grade-C Amethyst Treasure Chest, I wonder what kind of good equipment it will contain."
"There's no point in being jealous. However, the Red Team only completed the first chapter, so the reward is limited. The Poison Dragon Team even obtained a Grade-C Black Crystal Treasure Chest for the first kill of the Cyclops Boss!"
"Let's just work hard on training and leveling up, and then get the equipment!"
"…"
These were just a microcosm of the game. Unknowingly, Endless Warrior Online had completely integrated into the lives of the Demons, becoming an almost inseparable part of them.
Correspondingly, it was not only the entertainment and training gains that the players obtained, but also the massive amount of Power of Faith gained by the initiator, Grandmaster Aguile.
The Power of Faith was gratifying, but Chen Rui's mind was now focused on one place, the City of Stars in the Blue Lake Mountain Range.
It had been more than two months since the end of the Alchemy Contest. During this period, Chen Rui spent 90% of his time in the City of Stars. In the past week, he had been in retreat and devoted himself to the upgrade of the Alchemy Castle.
After various adjustments and preparations, the City of Stars had finally been successfully upgraded to Level 3.
In the classification of the ancient alchemy civilization, Level 1 and Level 2 civilizations belonged to the "Fortress Level". After entering Level 3 civilizations, they could already be called "Cities". Above Level 4, they were "Capital Level".
This was a qualitative upgrade, and two new facilities were built, the Enhanced Creature Warehouse and the Culture Pool.
The Enhanced Creature Warehouse could strengthen the various qualities of the city's alchemy life and increase the production rate of chief-level alchemy life.
The function of the Culture Pool was more powerful, and it was divided into three major parts: Energy Cultivation, Material Cultivation, and Biological Cultivation.
Energy Cultivation could transform living organisms into the life energy needed by the alchemy civilization. In Doluda's diary, there was an experience of slaughtering an entire city of enemies and throwing all their corpses into the Energy Cultivation Pool to transform energy. Chen Rui had an almost inexhaustible supply of aura fruits, and aura fruits could be transformed into the highest level of energy blocks, so there was no need for such a terrifying transformation. It was worth mentioning that the quality and quantity of energy blocks transformed by the Energy Cultivation Pool were far higher than that of ordinary converters.
Material Cultivation was the use of energy and existing materials to produce or transform special materials needed by the alchemy civilization. This was exactly what Chen Rui urgently needed. For example, the material needed for the Giant Crystal Beast was Dragon Power Essence. Dragon Power Essence was the essence condensed by the souls of Dragons that did not dissipate after they died. It carried the Dragon's Might and a small amount of soul power when they were alive. It was very rare. Even though Chen Rui had "latched onto" his father-in-law, Augustus, the amount he could obtain from the exchange was extremely limited. Now that he had the Material Cultivation Pool, he could use other materials to create simulated Dragon Power Essence. Although the effect was not as good as the real Dragon Power Essence, it was enough to create the Giant Crystal Beast. As for the Giant Crystal Beast created by the original Dragon Power Essence, it could be strengthened by the enhanced Biological Warehouse, and its strength would be closer to the boss level.
The Biological Cultivation Pool could carry out advanced biological research and experiments. This target was not only for alchemy life, but the Biological Cultivation Pool was also one of the necessary facilities to create Titans.
After the promotion, the central life crystal "Crystal Phoenix" had a significant leap in both control and calculation abilities. After testing, Crystal Phoenix could deal with some problems in "Endless Warrior Online" very intelligently. The benefits of the city upgrade were far more than these. Crystal Phoenix automatically obtained the authority information of the level 3 life crystal, including some blueprints of city-level alchemy weapons. It could upgrade the original fortress-level weapons. It just so happened that the original weapons had not been repaired because they were damaged, so they were being rebuilt now.
The alchemy creatures that could be controlled in a level-3 city were twice that of a level-2 fortress. There were 60,000 gremlin servants, 30,000 crystal beasts, 15,000 lamp spirits, 3,000 assemble puppets, and 300 giant crystal beasts. Not considering the super combat power, once this lineup was fully produced, it was enough to build a country or let the Fallen Angel Empire dominate the Demon Realm. Unless the Bloody Empire and the Shadow Empire joined forces, the combat power of a single country was definitely not his opponent.
Deterrence by force was necessary, but war was only a last resort. Moreover, the current materials were still extremely scarce, and the level of the energy cultivation pool was not high. It would take a lot of time to fully gather the auxiliary materials and create the materials needed for the troops.
If it was upgraded to level 4, the speed would be greatly improved. Of course, Chen Rui did not have this extravagant hope now. Fortunately, this time he had more time than the Warlock Fortress battle. There was still a little more than half of the 2-year deadline of the armistice agreement. Whether it was the construction of the City of Stars or personal training, the time was completely in time.
After arranging the remaining work, Chen Rui left the central control palace. At this time, it was already night outside. When he lifted the closure of the City of Stars, he unexpectedly saw Kia with an anxious face.
The succubus maid's first sentence shocked Chen Rui, "Something happened to Rolla!"
When Chen Rui went to the human world, Rolla closed the Rainbow Valley to comprehend the mystery of the kingdom. However, just 2 days ago, the Rainbow Valley's space channel connected to the residence suddenly trembled. Countless terrifying elements were revealed from it. If it weren't for Paglio, Dodo and others who happened to be in the house to suppress it in time, the entire residence would have been razed to the ground.
The elements gradually weakened after a while. Just when everyone thought it was fine, the Rainbow Valley's space channel suddenly collapsed, and the entrance disappeared.
At that time, Paglio and others all felt that the elements leaking from the Rainbow Valley were not only violent but also abnormally chaotic. It was obviously out of control. Coupled with the collapse of the channel, it could basically be determined that there was a problem with Rolla's retreat.
The trouble was that the Rainbow Valley's channel had collapsed, and even the channel on the capital's side was the same. Everyone couldn't find the entrance for a long time, so they had to wait for Chen Rui to come out of the City of Stars.
The Elemental Kingdom was a powerful kingdom in the memory of the fairy dragon's bloodline. It could build a kingdom with elements as "believers". Elements were omnipresent. The power of this kind of kingdom was far better than its peers, but it was also the most difficult. It required an extremely profound understanding of the elements' origin. Even for the fairy dragon clan, there were only a few successful ones.
Rolla's choice was not a single element, but the strongest 6-element kingdom. The difficulty was naturally the greatest. Every time an element was added, the difficulty and danger of training would increase exponentially.
The elemental source power was the purest source power of the Elemental King. Rolla could use the source power to greatly enhance the perception of the Elemental Kingdom and reduce the danger. Unfortunately, since Chen Rui returned from the human world, Rolla's retreat was still not over, so the wind source power and light source power at hand could not be handed over to her. Unexpectedly, something happened now!
Chen Rui knew about Rolla's retreat. The purpose of this retreat was not to directly break through to the kingdom level, but to further feel and comprehend the realm of the kingdom so that the chances of breaking through in the future would increase. However, the danger of the 6-element Elemental Kingdom was far greater than that of an ordinary kingdom, so Chen Rui did not know what dangers Rolla would encounter, but judging from the collapse of the space channel, it was definitely not a small problem.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel anxious. He greeted Kia, opened the [Star Gate], and returned to the house in the Dark Moon City as soon as possible.
When Chen Rui returned to the courtyard, he found that the space channel entrance that was originally set up in the garden had completely disappeared. There was no trace at all. After asking Paglio and others about the situation at the time, he made a prompt decision to ride the Incubus Beast little black horse and rush north at full speed.
Now that the space channel of the house had disappeared, the only way to enter the Rainbow Valley was the desolate valley in the outskirts of the capital. When Chen Rui first encountered Rolla, he entered from there.
To reach the outskirts of the capital, he must pass through the north to the Red Spirit Estate. This was not something that could be completed in 1 or 2 days. In terms of short distance, Chen Rui's flying skill was far better than the little black horse, but it was not good for long-distance running.
The little black horse, who had been eating devil fruits and aura fruits for many years, had already reached the peak of the Great Demon King level. It was only a step away from the Demon Emperor level. Its physique and strength even surpassed the average Demon Emperor level, but it had not awakened the territory talent in its bloodline, so it was not a real Demon Emperor level demonic beast. (Unfortunately, even if the little black horse successfully advances to the Demon Emperor, it is just the lowest strength mascot in the house)
The little black horse felt the anxiety of its master, so it couldn't care less about shocking the world. It displayed its strongest form and began to run at full speed. The horse's hooves were shining with flames like red lightning cutting through the night.
