Global Lord: Start As A Desert Lord

huh~

Hundreds of bone-blood dragons with a wingspan of more than 20 meters flapped their damaged dragon wings and flew away from Twilight City.

There are 6 squadrons of stone statues of the dead following behind.

The residents below saw this scene without any superfluous expressions.

No matter what happens, they firmly believe that the great master will return victorious.

This is the confidence that Twilight City's victories have built for them in the past six months.

No one can break.

Because several heroes have their own tasks, Richard did not bring any heroes this time except for the statue of the old god.

Gray and Gaunt were left by him to garrison in the city.

Now he is no longer the weak lord who can only command from behind when he first entered "Glory Age".

With the increase of his personal combat power, his confidence has long been different.

The army galloped at full speed in the direction of the collapsed ruins.

Seeing that the speed of the army did not reach the posture he wanted, Richard simply mobilized the power of the yellow sand and attached it to the surface of the troops to provide them with extra thrust.

This subtle movement greatly accelerated the flying speed of the army.

Let the overall speed exceed 400 kilometers per hour...

Seeing the flying geese flying behind him, Richard felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

This is all the wealth he has accumulated bit by bit.

Especially the stone statue of the dead, this fusion unit is really powerful and has no friends.

The initial level of the stone statue of the dead is level 9, with a potential of 3 brilliant stars.

However, its combat effectiveness is stronger than that of the Skeletal Blood Dragon with 1 star crown and 10 newborn level.

He even has the confidence to pile up most of the players with this army without going off the field himself.

The process of traveling is always a bit dull and boring, so Richard had to communicate with the hyena players about the collapsed ruins while flying.

I have to say that these guys do have something. With their connections, they can accurately give him the real-time situation of the collapsed ruins.

As time went by, the condition of the collapsed ruins gradually became worse.

Although the number of players gathering is increasing sharply, the pressure brought by the devil is even greater, and the players are forced to evacuate...

On the morning of October 19th, Richard, who had been flying all night, finally came within 100 kilometers of his destination.

Seeing the approaching markers on the system map, Richard also lifted his spirits.

The news from last night has not stopped. The ruins seem to be connected to the bottomless abyss, and there are a lot of high-level demons in it... Players are even forced to retreat into the desert, and they have to exit the collapsed ruins up.

At this moment, a system prompt sounded in my ear.

"Ding~ You have triggered a regional mission: the 333rd floor of the endless abyss has opened up a passage to the desert of death. A large number of demons have appeared on the main plane, seriously endangering the safety of Solan City. The Legendary powerhouse—— Grand Duke Solan issued an order , all the god lords immediately sent troops to wipe out the demons."

"Within 1,000 kilometers around Solan City, all lords will be forced to accept the task. Those who refuse to perform will be regarded as indifferent by Solan City, and all contributions will be zero. In the next six months, transactions entering Solan City will be banned. Collect five times the tax."

"During the mission period, the experience gained from hunting demons is increased by 5 times."

"Every time you kill a demon, you can get a certain amount of Solan City contribution points, and the contribution points can be exchanged for high-level treasures in Solan City."

"The lord who finally seals the abyss passage can be personally rewarded by the lord of Solan City."

"The mission period of this sub-region: 3 days."

Regional missions?

Richard's eyes lit up.

This is the first time he has encountered this type of mission.

Looks like fun.

But this mission only lasts for three days?

This means that if the demon problem is not resolved after three days, Grand Duke Sauran, that Legendary-level ascetic monk will end in person?

He hasn't seen a Legendary strongman make a shot yet, so he wonders if he can get a glimpse of it this time.

Immediately speed up the flight.

At this time, the private message rang again.

Hyena: "Master Qingqiu, we have triggered a regional mission, have you received it?"

"Yes, I'll be there in twenty minutes."

The hyena was so excited that he could finally hug his thigh again.

"Alright, we'll wait for you!"

——

"Quick, retreat quickly!!"

"Fuck, there are so many angry demons, I can't stop them..."

"Be careful of the Balrog, the level of these demons has reached level 14..."

Among the ruins of a building covering tens of kilometers wide.

A large number of players led their own troops to fight against the demons pouring out of the central area among the ruined ruins.

Looking down from the sky, the devil is like a black tide surging, and its face is so ferocious that it makes one's spine chill.

A deep roar resounded like a dying beast resounding through the sky.

High-level demons even carry the words of perdition that make people feel frightened.

It represents the extremely evil breath of the abyss, like a giant hand grabbing the neck, making it difficult for people to breathe.

There are too many demons...

There are countless low-level demons and fallen demons, and high-level angry demons and balrogs can be seen everywhere.

In the peripheral area, the player leads an army, like a reef, resisting the demons coming like a wave.

The Priest of the sect camp constantly casts light magic, the Archer of the human race pulls the bow and arrow, the gunman of the Fortress race pulls the trigger, and the warrior of the orc's throwing ax... The variety of arms of each race is dizzying.

However, there are too many demons.

Although the players are also very tenacious, they are still forced to retreat step by step.

Moreover, they came to hunt, earn contribution points and experience, and would not confront them head-on, so they fought and retreated, and had no idea of ​​fighting to the death with the demons.

Richard saw this grand battle scene stretching tens of kilometers away from thousands of meters away.

Dozens of races, thousands of players, and hundreds of thousands of troops conquered the demon army. This scene is relatively rare.

But he wasn't interested in intervening right now.

Contributing something is useful to him, but it's not that useful. The little girl Chris is still helping him look after the Purple Roland Chamber of Commerce.

Richard withdrew his gaze, and flew in another direction according to the coordinates given by the hyenas.

A few minutes later, they sensed the hyenas hiding in a collapsed building.

Driving the bone and blood dragon under the seat to fall in front of the ruins.

The hyena, the bald head, the boss, and the youngest came out of the bunker excitedly when they saw Richard coming.

"Boss Qingqiu..."

Richard looked down at several people and said softly.

"Do you know why the devil suddenly appeared?"

The bald head said.

"No, it's just that two days ago, a player suddenly sent a message saying that there are a lot of demons here, and the experience is really high, so I paid extra attention."

"At the beginning, the number of demons was still under control, but then it gradually became uncontrollable. After I noticed the strangeness, I asked the hyena to send you a message." "Until the regional mission was triggered just now... .”

Richard frowned slightly.

What he learned from the player who discovered the Rotten Tree before was that this collapsed ruin has existed for a long time.

Now things have changed suddenly... Could this have something to do with the crimson moon?

Although there is no necessary connection among them, it always gives him a very subtle feeling.

Too many things happened recently, which made him a little sensitive.

"Don't get close to the central area. There may be extremely powerful demon heroes hidden in it, which is very dangerous."

"Try to help me find out the reason for the demon's appearance on the periphery..."

"I have important things to deal with now, and I can't get out."

The fighting power of these guys can only be described as mediocre, and a small team of stone statues of the dead can easily kill them.

It is useless in combat, and it is suitable for listening to news.

After a period of contact, although these guys are not people with high IQ, they are not idiots, and they are quite easy to use.

"Okay, you are busy with your work, if you need something, you can speak up at any time."

The hyenas are very self-aware, and there is no nonsense.

The gap between them is too big, and the appointment cannot help in battle, so it is better to obey the arrangement.

After Richard's simple instructions, he didn't linger long, and led the army to gallop in another direction.

Looking at the bone blood dragon and the stone statue of the dead who disappeared from sight.

Several players showed envious eyes.

This is the real top-level unit. I don't know when they will have it.

"Boss Qingqiu deserves to be Boss Qingqiu..."

huh~

Richard passed through the sky without any scruples, and the heroic and domineering posture of the two arms caused many players to exclaim.

But he ignored these guys who were entangled with the demons, and quickly flew to the north of the collapsed ruins.

Rotten tree.

The goal of this trip.

Although he was very curious about why the devil suddenly appeared, but more importantly, he found the rotten tree.

Confirm whether the other party is still alive.

Can it recover.

Others, on the contrary, are secondary.

The flying speed is very fast, and no matter how wide this collapsed ruins covering an area of ​​tens of kilometers is, it cannot withstand the galloping speed of flying units.

Ten minutes later, Richard saw that he coincided with the marked point on the map, and subconsciously raised his head to look ahead.

In the next second, his eyes opened.

Surprised and uncertain.

I saw a thousand meters away, a dry giant tree with a height of more than 50 meters towering over the ruined walls and building ruins.

It seems to be the scene left after the natural disaster, the vicissitudes, ancient, dilapidated, revealing an indescribable atmosphere.

The abyssal demons that forced the player to keep retreating are now stationed a hundred meters away from the dry giant tree, densely packed like locusts.

But these pronouns of evil and chaos seem to be intimidated at the moment, not daring to step within a hundred meters of the giant tree, forming a striking hollow circle around it.

Looking carefully, you can find that the dozens of branches of the dry giant tree are weird, not only extremely twisted, but more like shriveled human arms, giving people a creepy feeling.

The most heart-stopping thing is that the main trunk of the giant tree grows densely packed with human skulls, which are shaped like the raised knobs of Common trees.

People in Common will have nightmares in the first half of the year even if they take a look at it.

This is not over yet, on the ground of the 100-meter ruins around the dry giant tree, there are still countless pale bones, all kinds of life.

Bodies turned over to the ground like in a mass burial.

Added countless horrors to the already terrifying scenes around.

Coupled with the demons wandering around, evil, dark, brutal... It seems that all negative adjectives can be used to describe this weird and twisted tree.

This scene is extremely psychologically impactful.

Even veterans who are used to seeing life and death will have shortness of breath when they see this scene.

Richard forcefully suppressed the throbbing in his heart, and continued to approach.

Sensing the strange aura, the demon on the ground immediately raised his head, staring at him coldly with scarlet eyes.

A sharp roar that makes the soul tremble...

Although Richard was not affected by the demon, as he gradually approached the rotten tree, he gradually sensed a terrifying pressure.

That is the coercion from the depths of the soul.

It was as if he was being watched by an abyssal beast that could devour a demon god.

This feeling reached its peak when it was close to the 100-meter limit of the Rotten Tree.

Going one step further, it seemed that the giant abyss beast was about to open its mouth and swallow him.

Richard's eyes were fixed, and he waved his hand to stop the army, without stepping into the sky above the bones.

His eyes were fixed on the rotten tree that seemed to be still lifeless.

After calming down, he opened the properties panel.

rotten tree

Status: dead (reviving)

Introduction: The evil tree with mysterious origin.

Simple attributes make it impossible to know the specific situation.

But the recovery prompt behind the status bar made him happy at first, and then a bad premonition arose in his heart.

Could it be that after the abyss was connected to the main plane, it was given energy replenishment?

This is not a good thing.

Richard frowned.

Recovery or not is not the key, the biggest question is, how can we benefit from it?

He doesn't have such a treasure as the dark contract in his hands now.

Richard rubbed his forehead, subconsciously opened the black gold system.

But the next moment, when he saw the prompt that appeared above, his breathing froze.

His eyes were full of disbelief.

[The tree of decay, the master of the 333rd floor of the bottomless abyss—the king of decay, the seed planted by Rab Reiss for a certain scheme, which contains a strand of rotten authority of Rab Reiss. 】

[1. It can irrigate the power of the abyss to restore the power of the rotten tree. At that time, Rab Reiss can use the power of rot to regain control of the rotten tree. 】

[2. You can irrigate the rotten tree with holy water, destroy its vitality, and crush the rotten authority. Rab Reiss will permanently lose part of the rotten authority and his strength will decline. 】

[3. It can consume divine power to snatch the rotten authority hidden in the rotten tree. 】

Richard just felt dry mouth.

It feels like an unreal dream.

Was this rotten tree arranged by the ruler of the abyss who ruled a plane? ?

Inside, there is also a trace of the other party's authority? !

What is authority?

That is the unique power of the abyss, and it is the same kind of thing as the priesthood of the gods... the power of rules.

Is it really going to change recently?

Part of the soul of the kobold god was imprisoned by him, and the statue of the dwarf god was in his hands. Now, another master of the abyss was found buried in the main plane.

Is this because the new expansion pack is coming, so some top existences have gradually surfaced?

But the current players, can deal with this level of existence?

Even he felt his scalp tingling at the moment.

In a terrifying place like the bottomless abyss, he can rule the master of a plane. If a boss of this level singled out a god like the kobold god, he would be able to kill him, right?
