Richard still had 1.07 million resources after spending 340,000 to recruit all the troops.
A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
This amount of resources was enough to do a lot of things.
Finally, he could experience the life of a wealthy landlord.
He opened the [Trading Market].
He searched for the desert camp, rare-level troop lairs.
The prices were from the highest to the lowest.
But after a few glances, he could not help but shake his head.
The most expensive batch of rare-level troop lairs was worth more than 200,000 units of resources, and the cheapest was worth 100,000 units of resources.
Although the prices were high, the attributes were getting worse and worse.
Richard gave up on buying a batch of rare-level troop lair upgrade to rare-level after only looking for a few minutes.
He started from the elite troops.
The market would become abundant with an enormous base.
Half a month ago, there were only a few hundred to a thousand elite troops, but over a million of them now. And this was just the desert camp.
With the addition of the other camps, the number was exceedingly high.
“With Gray, Gunter, and I, two A-rank heroes around, the troop doesn’t lack magic damage, but long-range attacks are too scarce…
“The Axe of the Dead’s attack range is only 40 meters. It’s enough for close battle, but against enemies like the venom vulture, I can only watch…”
This sudden outbreak of battle made Richard realize the weakness of his current strength.
And no matter what battle, there would be more room for manipulation with enough long-range troops.
After he made up his mind, he immediately started searching — mummy, long-ranged attack.
Flying Claw Mummy, Elite 1-star — selling price: 8,000 units of wood.
Highly Toxic Mummy, Elite 2-stars — selling price: 15,000 units of stone.
Spear Thrower Mummy, Elite 3 star — selling price: 30,000 units of gold.

The higher the potential of a troop lair, the better the attributes would be. And the price would be more extravagant.
It would eliminate other players after they became mighty because they could not level up a troop lair, even if some of the troop attributes were good.
Or, they would sell some of the troop lairs with good attributes at a high price. And then use resources to buy many violent soldiers with ordinary-level characteristics.
Although the troops with ordinary-level attributes were not potent in combat alone, wouldn’t it be nice that they were several times more numerous than any opponent?
At this moment, Richard finally understood what it felt like to be dazzled.
When purchasing a troop lair, the first thing to consider was whether it had the potential to cultivate. The second was the problem of matching it with other troops. And finally, the technological research and development in Twilight City.
Many troops met one condition, but those who met all the conditions immediately became scarce.
After Richard made a selection for two hours.
He finally chose two troops that satisfied him.
Sand Condensation Archer, Elite 3-stars — 50,000 units of gold coins, 5 units, 250,000 units of resources.
Giant Axe Death Knight, Elite 3-stars — 70,000 units of iron ore, 3 units, 210,000 units of resources.
Upgrading elite-level troop lairs to rare-level requires 100 ordinary troop lairs.
Eight soldier nests would be 800, and each would have 500 units of resources. That would total 400,000.
Richard only had 230,000 out of the 1.07 million units in his hands after the preparations.
He did not have the slightest nostalgia for this. If he did not use the resources he earned to increase his battle power, did he use them to buy a graveyard?
He built eight Elite 3-stars troop lairs in the front of the Lord’s mansion courtyard after he closed the [Trading Market].
It cost him nearly 10,000 units of resources.
Richard was excited when he looked at the eight troop lairs rising from the ground.
Regardless of why the venom vultures came to Twilight City, these monsters had contributed to the development of Twilight City. Their deaths were not wasteful.
The Sand Condensation Archers’ lair was a pyramid filled with arrows. It was as if they had encountered 10,000 troops. A tragic atmosphere shrouded the pyramid.
The Giant Axe Death Knight’s troop was a pyramid made from the corpses of horses. A unique atmosphere filled the buildings, and it was terrifying.
[Sand Condensation Archer Pyramid (Elite 3-stars) — By consuming 100 cores of ordinary desert troop lairs, you can upgrade it to Rare 3-stars. The conditions have been met. Do you wish to upgrade?]
[Giant Axe Death Knight Pyramid (Elite 3-stars) — Consuming 100 cores…]
Richard did not hesitate after he looked at the Black Gold System notification.
The 800 ordinary troop lairs were consumed and upgraded the eight lairs.
After selection, the yellow sand light penetrated the Sand Condensation Archer Pyramid while the Giant Axe Death Knight Pyramid glowed a pale white light…
After more than a dozen breaths, the light above these pyramids gradually dissipated.
Richard opened his stats panel excitedly.

Richard chose to recruit without hesitation.
For each 1,200-unit resource of the Sand Condensation Archer, 100 units would be 120,000.
The 220,000 resources suddenly dropped to 100,000 units.
In the next moment.
The five pyramids in front of him immediately made some movements.
The sand shot by countless broken arrows surged like spring water that slowly condensed into a bandaged mummy.
The opponent did not have any weapons. It turned around after condensing its body. It extended its right arm into the pyramid and grabbed a broken arrow.
It pulled with force.
A sizzle sounded.
A lot of sand flowed after it pulled the arrow.
The sand floated in the air, and a longbow of yellow sand condensed with the sand in the mummy’s hand.
The remaining sand condensed into a rough quiver behind him which contained arrow after arrow.
Only when the quiver was full did it stop.
At this moment, the sand condensation archer was officially born.
The entire process was exceedingly magical.
Richard’s eyelids twitched as he watched. Why was the appearance of every soldier so cool?
He opened the attribute panel.
[Sand Condensation Archer]
[Level: 3]
[Potential: Rare 3-stars]
[Range: 220 meters (+ 66 meters)]
[Skills: Undead Body (D-rank) — Immune to poison, curses, and plagues. Strength increased by 50%.]
[Sand Condensation Arrow (D-rank) — Can use sand to form a longbow and arrows. No need for resupply. After damage, it will automatically condense sand to recover.]
[Charged Power Attack (D-rank) — After charging, an arrow can release 300% of its strength, with additional piercing damage.]
[Rapid Fire (D-rank) — Shoots 30 arrows in a row within 10 seconds. Cooldown time is 5 minutes.]
[Race Talent: Accuracy increased by 40%.]
[Fetter-Achers: When the number of archers exceeds a squadron, range increases by 30%, and strength increases by 30%.]
[Description: Their arrows are endless when standing in the desert.]
Richard nodded in satisfaction. He finally had a true long-range soldier in his hands.
This sand condensation archer was perfectly suited to the desert environment. As long as there was sand, he would have unlimited ammunition.
It was perfect.
Richard would not worry even if he left the desert. His Beyond A-rank skill – Sand Transformation, could turn hundreds of meters of land into desert.
At that time, no matter who he met, he would have the advantage of fighting on his home ground.
Five troop lairs had recruited a squadron of sand condensation archers. Richard was in a good mood when he looked at the neatly arranged troops.
It was what a violent troop should be.
He gazed at the Giant Axe Death Knight Pyramid.
He chose to recruit without hesitation.
Three Giant Axe Death Knight Pyramids could recruit 42 giant axe death knights.
Only the last 50,000 units of 1.41 million resources were left after he spent 50,000 units of resources.
In the next second.
A pale light surged above the Giant Axe Death Knight Pyramid.
The pyramid formed from the bones of the horses changed.
The body of a white-boned horse trembled, and within its skull, a faint blue soul fire lit up as if gasoline ignited.
The white-boned horse slowly stood up, raised its head, and swung it left and right. Its hooves stomped on the ground.
Its movements were no different from a live horse.
After it mobilized its muscles and bones, the white-boned horse turned around and came to the front of the death knight pyramid, directly lying on the ground.
It seemed to be waiting for its knight to mount.
‘Crack!’
Countless bones splashed out, and a bandaged arm protruded from the pyramid.
Then, a mummy with a long-handled white-boned tomahawk climbed out of the corpse. It turned over and sat on the white-boned horse’s back.
Herod.
The white-boned horse stood and raised its front hooves high before hiding again.
‘Bang!’ The hooves hit the ground with a dull sound.
When the 42 giant axe death knights appeared in the same way from the Giant Axe Death Knight Pyramid, the violent troop had consumed millions of resources has finally completed.
Richard now had the Rotten Calvary legion recruited from orc calvary that numbered up to seven small teams.
It made up for the lack of mobility on the ground.
Richard now had a suffocating troop with the addition of sand condensation archers.
