Chapter 252: Chapter 213: A Remarkably Mysterious Territory

Karu immediately summoned two residents and asked them to bring the five people he selected.
Richard returned to the mansion.
The smile on his face grew wider when he looked at the 30 wooden boxes neatly arranged in the front yard.
“My Lord, what’s inside?”
Karu looked at the wooden box with the gray-colored dwarf symbol on the ground and was slightly curious.
It was an expensive item since the skeleton blood dragon could bring it.
With a wave of Richard’s hand, the yellow sand that covered the sandworms in the backyard began to float.
After that, they transformed into arms and undid the chains on the wooden box that opened it.
When the sand flew back to the backyard, the old gray-haired Karu immediately looked at it.
Ores filled three of the wooden boxes that emitted a faint fluorescent light. Mysterious black items filled the other wooden box that looked like sand. There was also an extremely pungent smell.
Richard pointed at the ore with a smile.
“This is mithril ore.”
The old Karu’s eyes gleamed with delight.
“These three boxes are mithril ore??”
Richard laughed.
That’s right, all three boxes!!
He had never thought he could obtain so much mithril ore in that small city.
Although the color of these ores was a few grades lower than the ones traded with Bloodhoof City, they had a lot of impurities. There were a lot of them.
Each of these three boxes contained more than 1000 units of ore, for a total of 3000 units.
Even if the ore had a lot of impurities, its mithril content would still be higher than the 50 units of mithril ore he had obtained from Bloodhoof City.
And this was his spoils of war, free of charge.
It made him even happier.
“What are the remaining boxes?”
“Alchemy gunpowder, an item used to make alchemy bombs!”
Richard smiled radiantly.
The alchemy gunpowder was the best powder Brown had developed. And it contained an enormous amount of mana.
This gunpowder is the main content of the alchemy bombs used in the giant alchemy cannon he had seized from the gray-colored dwarf.
It was superlatively strapping.
The 27 boxes of alchemy gunpowder were now his.
The size of each box was limited. Richard compressed them to store more. A rough estimate was that there were at least 30000 units.
He had asked Brown before, and the 30000 units could produce at least 3000 alchemy bombs for the giant alchemy cannon.
It could even produce tens of thousands of alchemy bombs of the usual size.
It was not a small sum. And it could support the consumption of a medium-sized battle.
In his opinion, they could use alchemy gunpowder to produce more than just alchemy bombs. It had great potential to be unearthed.
In addition to these two gains, he also obtained 20000 units of rare resource-mercury from the Gray-Colored Dwarf City.
Twenty thousand units were worth a million units of food and millions of resources.
Each of the four rare resources contained powerful magic suitable for various purposes.
The runes on the dwarves’ cannons were all carved with mercury.
Rare resources, gunpowder, mithril ore, and Brown, a level 12 alchemy hero.
The harvest from the attack on the Gray-Colored Dwarf City had far exceeded Richard’s expectations.
The saying “the winner takes it all” had never been untrue.
“Seal up the alchemy gunpowder and store it in the warehouse. You must get my approval if you want to use it.”
“Yes, my Lord …”
Five young residents came to the Lord’s mansion entrance as the two continued to talk.
At this time, Adele chatted with the gray-colored dwarf alchemist with a deformed arm, Brown.
The five young residents respectfully saluted when they passed by.
“Lady Adele.”
Adele turned around and recognized them as the talents selected from the seminar over the past few days.
She also participated in the selection.
“Where are you going?”
“His lordship has summoned us over. He seems to have some instructions…”
Adele nodded thoughtfully. “Go.”
Onyx sighed as he watched the five of them leave.
“Lord Richard’s way of doing things is always so unexpected. Who would’ve thought he’d let these civilians learn as well?
“I’m afraid their jaws would drop if other people knew about this.”
One could not share limited resources with everyone.
The usual practice in the “Shining Era” was to concentrate resources and then nurture a portion of top talents.
Richard’s actions were the complete opposite.
Adele couldn’t stand it anymore and retorted.
“Mr. Onyx, so Lord Richard is the ruler of Twilight City. And you’re a member of the Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce.”
Onyx revealed a bitter smile.
Previously, he did not think that the status of a Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce member was lower than that of a Desert Lord …
The old gray-haired Karu immediately extended his hand and introduced the five young men after the guards brought them in.
“Lord Richard, these are the people we’ve selected. They did well and quickly learned. They have potential…”
Richard looked at the nervous young men after they bowed. He comforted them and opened the attribute panel to glance.
If the young men were not hero units, their potential would be unknown and could not be determined.
However, each of them had an exemplary characteristic. Although Richard couldn’t see their distinguished potential, they looked pretty good overall.
Their characteristics included being sharp, steady, earnest, hardworking, and determined.
Richard thought for a moment. He decided to choose the young man who was sharp and earnest.
The two of them were from the distillery and the food workshop.
The remaining three were also good, but these two were more suitable for research.
He took note of those he didn’t choose and would reconsider them when a suitable opportunity in the future would come.
With that, one of the three proofs of heroes remained with him. He had to think of what kind of talent to nurture for this one.
It’s good to keep one. When a suitable choice in the future comes, it wouldn’t be late to use it.
The two chosen young men were so excited, and their faces were red.
They looked at the handsome figure in front of them with burning eyes as if they were devout believers who had seen their god.
They’ve caught Lord Richard’s eye.
Praise the gods!
It must be the blessing of the goddess of luck!
“Karu has already told me about your performance.
“In my plans, the distillery and food workshop will be the invaluable pillars of Twilight City in the future!
“Its importance is no less than the breeding base and the blacksmith shop.”
Richard fixed his determined eyes on the two young men, and his tone was remarkably persuasive.
“The fact that Twilight City has chosen you shows that you are beyond ordinary. Your future should not be limited to this.
“As long as you dare to shoulder the responsibility, I can grant you exceptional power.
“Are you willing to accept my summons and take on the responsibility of the distillery and food workshop to create more value for Twilight City?”
The two looked into his deep eyes. At this moment, an incomparable sense of glory welled up in their hearts.
They were teary-eyed.
It was almost a roar.
“My Lord, I swear to serve you with my life!!”
Richard nodded slowly.
“I hope that in the future, you will not let me down.”
After Richard said that, he took out two proofs of heroes from the system space.
[Ding~ Do you wish to use the proof of hero? Two target professions have been detected: apprentice chef and winemaker. Do you want to change their professions to the corresponding professions?]
Richard’s eyes brightened. He didn’t think they could rank-change after they became heroes. That saved him a lot of trouble.
He chose to confirm without any hesitation.
At that moment.
The two proofs of heroes shattered like glass.
It turned into a majestic energy that surged into the two of them.
Then, under his gaze, the power in the depths of their bloodlines began to activate, and their auras gradually rose.
The magic power in the surroundings also surged into his body simultaneously.
The transformation process didn’t cause too much of a commotion. After about ten minutes, the aura gradually calmed down.
[Ding~ You have successfully used proofs of the hero. You have obtained two B-rank heroes.]
As the system notification rang out, Richard opened up their attribute panels.
[Nassie]
[Heroic Unit]
[Level: 4]
[Potential: B]
[Class: Winemaker (Elite, increases wine brewing success rate by 20.)]
*******
[Reis]
[Hero Unit]
[Level: 3]
[Potential: B]
[Profession: Chef (Elite, increases the taste of food made by 20%.)]
******
He roughly looked at the skills and hero characteristics of the two players and had an idea.
The skills of the unit’s proofs of hero transformation were undistinguishedly outstanding. But they were not bad either.
In general, it was above the passing line.
Richard encouraged the two as they regained consciousness.
“You now have the power of a hero. Your future will be bright.
“I hope you can create more value for the construction of Twilight City in the future. And all the residents of Twilight City will be proud of you!
“Karu, pass down my order. From tomorrow onwards, the two will be in charge of the food workshop and the distillery.
“If you need any materials or supplies, you can ask Master Karu for them.
“I need you to develop a qualified food and liquor as soon as possible.”
The two teary-eyed young men looked at the handsome figure in front of them with only one thought in their minds.
Even if they had to die in battle for their lord, they would not hesitate!
The other party had given them everything!
“My Lord, I will live up to your trust!”
His voice almost pierced the sky as if only the loudest could express his attitude.
Richard nodded in satisfaction. After a few more words of encouragement, he let the two young men go.
As soon as they stepped out of the Lord’s mansion, they ran into Adele and Onyx. They were about to enter, and Jonah Thorin was there.
The two newly born heroes didn’t act arrogantly at all. They saluted before they left.
They looked at the other party’s backs as they left.
Onyx and Jonah Thorin looked at each other and saw the shock in each other’s eyes.
‘A heroic unit?
‘Did I see it wrong?’
Ten minutes ago, the five young men who had entered the mansion were still ordinary-level.
The other three had already left, and nothing was unusual.
‘How did the two become heroes? I haven’t seen them for more than ten minutes!
‘What kind of joke was this?
‘How can one cultivate heroes in such a way?’
Those who did not train from a young age or those whose power in bodies after birth and death did not awake. Who wants to become a hero unit?
In disbelief, the two tried to sense it a few more times.
However, after they sensed it, they were even more surprised.
Not only did they become a hero in a short ten minutes. Their bloodline power was supremely strapping.
At the very least, he would be a hero with potential above B-rank.
In an instant.
The two turned to look at the Lord’s mansion’s city gate simultaneously, and their expressions became extremely interesting.
Then, they thought of the series of things that had happened after they entered the territory. From the god’s ancient tree, the mysterious mechanical puppets, the alchemy cannon, the undead giant dragon…
A layer of obscure veil suddenly shrouded the entire territory their hearts could not explore.
Even though Onyx had the back of a behemoth like the Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce, he was still in awe.
The lord was too mysterious.
His idea of getting the other party to move out of the territory before he stepped into Twilight City was inexplicably ridiculous.
Did he have the right to plan the future of such a character?
