340 Chapter 281: The Space Merchant, A Treasure Worth 3 Million Points [1/3]

Time passed by quickly in the battle.

At 21:00 on August 17, after a fight for more than 20 hours…

The number of void lickers that swarmed in gradually decreased.

At 00:00, a system notification suddenly sounded.

[Ding~ The first wave of monsters has ended. The next wave will begin after the death arena is over.]

[Please destroy the dark crystals on your own, lords.]

Richard’s vision returned to normal as he heard the voice.

No more void lickers.

At this moment, many of the players released a sigh of relief. Joy shrouded their faces.

They finally made it through.

Monster attacks intensified for an entire day. They destroyed the territories of billions of players.

Only those who had faced this war could understand the pressure.

Richard’s face showed signs of fatigue after the skeleton blood dragon corroded into blood, the last void licker.

He had been in the dungeon for three days. He had not closed his eyes.

Under such a high-intensity battle, no matter how tough one’s spirit was, it would reach its limit.

He landed on the city wall and looked around on his return to Twilight City.

The dark clouds had a faint glow so the dim environment would not be starkly unclear.

Blood covered the ground outside the city wall.

The corpses covered the yellow sand, and the blood froze the sand.

The scene was creepy.

Richard raised his head and looked at the agricultural area further away.

His eyes twitched when he saw what was in front of him.

At this moment, the void lickers must have trampled a hundred acres of barley into a mess and damaged a large area.

It was enough to raise blood pressure.

The Russian olive forest was even worse. The enemies directly withered large areas of trees and died. It turned the green leaves into yellow.

When the void lickers passed through, they carried a dark aura like sulfuric acid. It had a fatal corrosive effect.

Plants sensitive to the environment would suffer double the damage.

The void hunters have razed the breeding base of the fire dragon rabbit.

The walls were scattered everywhere.

Richard knew this would happen, but it still hurt.

These were resources he accumulated with great difficulty, and who knew how much effort he had exhausted in managing them?

Now, everything was gone.

Furthermore, there were still a few more battles to come.

It could destroy the rest as well.

After the battle started, they couldn’t prepare any energy to take care of this area.

“I must think carefully about how to resettle the agricultural area.”

Richard fell into deep thought.

Even though they could buy food from the market now.

However, when the city population increase in the future, the consumption of resources will only exhaust the finances.

Supporting 2,000 people, 20,000 people, and 200,000 were completely different concepts.

If Twilight City’s population increased to 100,000, even if they only consumed two or three units of food, that would mean 200,000 to 300,000 units and two to three million resources a day.

They would have to pay hundreds of millions of resources in a month.

And what if the [Trading Market] continued to increase the handling fee in the future?

During the week of natural disasters, grain production decreased, and the other players raised the price or even stopped selling.

If the agricultural industry is not under his control, he would have to pay a painful price he could not bear if an accident happened.

In the corner of his eye, Richard caught sight of a figure who slowly approached. It held a long-handled giant axe in her hand.

The little centaur seemed in a particularly low mood. She turned a deaf ear to everything around her.

There were large patches of blood stains on her armor, which looked quite frightening.

“Emily…”

The little fellow raised her head when she heard the familiar voice.

She suddenly felt a lump in her throat when she looked at warm and worried eyes of Richard. She ran up to him and hugged him tightly. She buried her head in his arms and cried.

Richard was surprised, but a smile soon appeared on his face. He patted the little centaur’s head.

He comforted her softly.

“Don’t cry, don’t cry. Behold. I am here. No one can bully you now…”

When she heard this, the little girl cried even harder.

After a long time, the little centaur seemed tired from crying, and her voice became softer.

She sobbed as she slowly left his embrace.

Her eyes were red as she looked at him pitifully.

“Father, I just killed many, many monsters…”

As she spoke, she clutched his long robe tightly as if afraid that the only person she could rely on would leave.

Richard smiled and wiped away the tears on Emily’s face.

“I’m glad that Emily is strong.”

“It’s not your fault. Don’t worry. Those monsters are our enemies. If we don’t kill them, they will destroy everything we have.

“When facing an enemy, there is no need to hold back.

“You’ve done a great job. Not only have you helped me, but you’ve also helped everyone in Twilight City.

“The residents will be proud of you. I am proud of you.”

When she heard this, the centaur’s eyes lit up.

Her voice was soft and uncertain.

“Really?”

Richard nodded in agreement.

“It’s true.”

It was as if the judge had declared her innocent and released her. And it gave the centaur a new life.

Her depressed mood instantly rose, and her red eyes curved into crescents.

However, her throat still uncontrollably sniffled after a long cry.

Richard found it funny. The kid’s face was like the weather, changing at will.

It was only then that Emily realized something. She turned her head and looked around in a daze, only to find the surrounding troops all fixed gaze at her, especially Xina. The veteran stared at her with a smile.
