Eight o’clock in the evening, sharp.

A system notification sounded in Richard’s ear on time.

[Ding~ This week is timber resources week. The output of the logging field has increased by 1000 units per day. Lords, please arrange the production.]

[Ding~ The output of all the troop lairs has been refreshed. Lords, please recruit on your own.]

It finally came.

Richard was in a lively emotional state.

“Timber resources week… Unfortunately, Twilight City only occupies one small logging site. If it occupies 120, the harvest in a week would be considerable. The desert is indeed a worthy place where resources are exhausted. The density of refreshed resource points is much less than other terrains.”

These few days, Richard had deliberately learned about it on the forum.

If it was a plain or normal land, the resource points would refresh very densely. One could even see one in ten minutes.

On the contrary, after Richard scanned around Twilight City for so long, he discovered five resource points.

He hadn’t felt it before. He thought that all the lords were like this. But after a thorough understanding, he discovered it.

The desert’s resources were simply indescribable compared to other places.

“I still have to develop myself and continue farming. If I rely on the resources of the outside territories to survive, Twilight City won’t be able to develop at all.”

Only when there was comparison would there be harm…

As Richard shook his head, he collected scattered thoughts and opened the troop lair to check.

As expected, it had already been refreshed.

[Lair: Guardian’s Land (Elite 3-stars, 3 seats) Troop Type: Guardian Mummy, Number of Recruits: 30]

[Lair: Great Pyramid (Elite 3-stars, 3 seats) Troop Type: Bandaged Mummy, Number of Recruits: 21]

[Lair: Scorpion’s Nest (Rare 3-stars, 1 seat) Troop Type: Poisonous Scorpion Warrior, Number of Recruits: 7]

[Lair: Cursed Pyramid (Rare 3-stars, 1 seat) Troop Type: Cursed Pharaoh, Number of Recruits: 5]

[Lair: Battle Axe Wooden House (Rare 3-stars, 1 seat) Troop Type: Axe of the Dead, Number of Recruits: 5]

In addition to the Axe of the Dead, he used more than 20,000 resources to recruit all the soldiers.

The strength in his hands soared again.

The current number of troops in Twilight City:

[Guardian Mummy: 120 (Elite 3-stars)]

[Bandaged Mummy: 61(Elite 3-stars)]

[Poisonous Scorpion Warrior: 27 (Rare 3-stars)]

[Cursed Pharaoh: 5 (Rare 3-stars)]

[Axe of the Dead: 15 (Rare 3-stars)]

The total number of soldiers reached 228.

The current population of Twilight City was less than 400.

This power could already be described as substantial.

What made Richard even more excited was that Twilight City’s first rare-level troop lair was about to rise.

After he glanced at the still abundant resources, he did not hesitate and directly purchased 1,000 desert camp troop lairs.

He spent this amount of resources extremely blissful.

After the purchase, he only had 110,000 units of resources left out of 610,000 units.

Richard came to the front of the battle axe wooden house full of anticipation.

This was the first time he had upgraded troop lair to rare-level.

He was quite excited.

The Temple Guard that he felt untouchable half a month ago was only at a rare level.

[Battle Axe Wooden House (Rare 3-stars) — After consuming 10 rare-level desert camp troop lair cores, it can be upgraded to Rare-3 stars. 1,000 ordinary-level troop lairs have been detected to meet the upgrade requirements. Do you want to upgrade?]

Richard did not think much and confirmed directly.

The next second.

Majestic energy gushed out of the battle axe wooden house, and its height increased from 4 to 5 meters.

The thousands of tomahawks hanging on the outer wall of the wooden house glowed faint golden light.

A few minutes later, the light faded away.

The battle axe wooden house became increasingly exquisite. The thousands of tomahawks shone brightly. At a glance, one could tell that these were surely not ordinary items.

[Upgrade successful. Current Level: Rare 3-stars.]

[Battle Axe Wooden House (Rare 3-stars) — Consume 10 rare level desert camp troop lair cores and you can upgrade it to brilliant 3-stars.]

After the Black Gold System notification sounded, Richard laughed out loud.

His heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment as he watched the strength in his hand grow stronger bit by bit. It was an incredible, indescribable feeling.

[Battle Axe Wooden House]

[Level: Rare 3-stars]

[Recruit Type: Axe of the Dead (Rare 3-stars)]

[Recruit Quantity: 5]

[Weekly Output: 5]

[Recruitment Requirements: 4,000 gold coins, 4,000 units of stone materials, 4,000 units of iron ore]

[Description: Able to recruit undead soldiers with decent battle strength.]

After leveling up, the resources required to recruit the Axe of the Dead increase by 10 times.

The cost of recruiting high-level soldiers was not cheap.

Richerd felt both pain and pleasure in his heart when he saw this…

He directly recruited all five soldiers of the Axe of the Dead with a wave of his hand.

In an instant, countless dark energy gathered in the battle axe wooden house.

Gray light shook after a few breaths.

The undead soldier from Axe of the Dead lair was 2.2 meters tall and wore full-body armor with mandala patterns. A horned helmet appeared in his line of sight. This powerful soldier walked out of the wooden house step by step.

After it stepped out of the door, it reached out and took a tomahawk that glowed faint golden light from the wall.

‘Kacha! Kacha!’

The moment the undead soldier picked up the tomahawk, countless chains gathered on its wrist.

A genuine undead soldier of the Axe of the Dead appeared.

Richard opened the soldier’s stats panel impatiently.

[Axe of the Dead]

[Level: 5 (Elite soldier, strength increased by 15%.)

[Potential: Rare 3-stars]

[Skills: Tomahawk Slash (B-rank) — Can throw a tomahawk within 40 meters to attack the enemy. The tomahawk can be retrieved through the chain on the arm and cause a massive amount of magic damage to the enemy.]

[Skills: Body of the Dead (C-rank) — Immune to poisons and plagues. Defense increases by 70%. The heart will not die if it is not destroyed.]

[Roar (C-rank) — Attack power increases by 70% after roaring.]

[Swing (C-rank) — After throwing the tomahawk, can use the chain wrapped around the arm to pull the tomahawk to carry out attacks continuously. It has more exquisite control over the tomahawk.]

[Tomahawk Smash (C-rank) — After throwing the tomahawk, it will explode and shatter, causing a huge amount of magic damage to enemies within a 10-meter radius.]

[Race Talent: After the tomahawk is broken, it can be used to gather energy again.]

[Fetter-Tomahawk: When the tomahawk is thrown from 1 to 10 meters away, the damage increases by 20%.]

[When the tomahawk is thrown from 11 to 20 meters away, the damage dealt increases by 40%.]

[When the tomahawk is thrown from 21 to 30 meters away, the damage dealt increases by 60%.]

[Moreover, there is a 30% chance of triggering the Instant Death Skill (Soul Execution). It can directly kill the enemy. The stronger the enemy, the lower the chance of triggering the skill.]

[Description: Little darling, close your eyes. I’m going to throw the axe.]

After Richard looked at it a few times, he felt an intense excitement rose in his heart.

Damn, the initial level of the Axe of the Dead recruited from the troop lair had reached level 5!

It directly received the attribute bonus of an elite soldier.

Furthermore, not only was the skill upgraded by one level. Its attributes had greatly improved.

It also acquired a powerful skill—Tomahawk Smash.

It allowed the already overbearing undead soldier possess the Group Attack skill!

This wave was simply a god-like enhancement!

More importantly, the Axe of the Dead’s trump card—Tomahawk Throw—had its range increased from 30 meters to 40 meters.

And the Instant Death skill (Soul Execution) also increased its range from 21 meters to 30 meters to 21 meters to 40 meters.

Increased by 10 meters!

This additional short 10 meters doubled the operability of the Axe of the Dead.

This was a true killing weapon!

Hahahahahahaha…
