“Rare 3-stars?”

“A seven to an eight-centimeter-long wasp that had reached level 5! Its potential was Rare 3-stars?”

Richard was perplexed.

His scorpion warrior was so strong, yet it hadn’t reached the rare level…

Richard was a little unhappy as he continued to check.

[Poisonous Wasp]

[Level: 5 (Rare) — Poison damage increases by 15%.]

[Description: Believe me, you don’t want to be stung by it.]

Three C-rank skills and one D-rank skill…

This wasp was a bit relentless.

Richard stopped thinking of killing the wasp with a single slap and watched as a few poisonous wasps preyed on the bees.

His face showed some interest upon seeing the wasps fly away.

If he could dig out the lair of the poisonous wasps and occupy this branch, then the safety of the Russian olive forest wouldn’t be too much of a concern, right?

That was a Rare 3-star lair, and the other party’s fetters were activated. It meant that there were at least thousands of wasps in this lair.

If he carried the beehive out to battle, wouldn’t it be heaven-defying?

When Richard thought of the battle, he first threw a beehive at the enemy.

Then, the enemy looked at the scene of thousands of highly poisonous wasps flying out of the beehive with a dumbfounded expression, and he immediately burst into laughter.

This thing was quite interesting.

However, the only problem was, how would Richard find the lair of these highly poisonous wasps?

After these wasps finished eating the bees, they disappeared into the air like lightning, flying extremely fast.

Not to mention chasing, you couldn’t even see them clearly.

Moreover, their Rare 3-star potential was a little over the limit. Even if Richard found them, he might not be able to do anything to them.

While Richard was deep in thought, Karu’s urgent voice suddenly came from outside the Russian olive forest.

“Lord Richard! The search and rescue teams we sent out encountered notably powerful enemies and suffered heavy losses…”

“Oh?”

Richard temporarily put this matter to heart and turned around to walk out of the Russian olive forest.

At this moment, a few residents covered in blood were lying on a stretcher outside the Russian olive forest, their faces filled with pain.

Richard’s brows tightly furrowed. Without hesitation, he took a jar of Desert Crown Honey from the system space.

“Take a portion of Desert Crown Honey and flush it with water. Feed them.”

The other residents were touched when they saw this scene.

They had learned from Onyx how expensive the Desert Crown Honey was these past few days.

They did not expect Lord Richard to be willing to give it to a few lowly commoners.

The eyes of a few of the injured people’s companions turned red. After bowing to Richard, they immediately took the Desert Crown Honey.

They took a portion as if they were on a pilgrimage and poured it into a wooden bowl beside the spring. Richard fed the two heavily injured people.

After drinking a few mouthfuls of honey, the two heavily injured people on the stretcher immediately calmed down.

Their faces regained some color and were no longer as pale.

The surrounding people were shocked when they saw this scene.

They had heard that the Desert Crown Honey was extraordinary, but they did not expect it to be so exaggerated.

They looked at Richard with more respect.

Richard ignored everything else and asked Karu.

“What’s happened?”

“Lord Richard, they were attacked by a group of terrifying monsters. If they were not lucky, none of them would have escaped.”

Karu’s tone was firm.

“The two mummies you sent have been killed…”

“The enemy is powerful.”

Richard narrowed his eyes slightly.

He looked at the two wounded.

“Do you know the specific location of the gathering point of the troop in the wild?”

The meaning of these words caused a commotion in the crowd.

“Lord… Those who attacked us were undead creatures. Their hands had chains and the other end was bound to an ax… They could throw an ax, and their strength was severely terrifying.”

The two mummies didn’t even last one round before defeat…

One of the wounded recovered slightly faster, and he told them the information about the enemy intermittently.

In the end, he sounded a little hesitant.

“Those monsters are too dangerous. You might not have to…”

Before he could finish, Richard cut him off.

“All those who hurt the citizens of Twilight City must pay the price!”

“I will protect my citizens!”

“No one is an exception!”

“The citizens who sacrificed themselves on this mission died for Twilight City. They are heroes.”

As he said this, Richard slowly looked at the crowd. His voice was not loud, but there was no doubt about it.

“I will bring them back and bury them as heroes…”

Mercy did not command troops. Richard was mentally prepared for casualties.

However, this was an excellent opportunity to gather people’s hearts. Moreover, Richard was particularly interested in the troop that could instantly kill the mummies.

However, the crowd was already silent.

No one spoke again. However, the crowd gave an indescribable complicated look in their eyes as they looked at Richard.

At this moment, the thought of becoming a part of Twilight City rose in their hearts. It was their honor to have Richard as their lord.

How many lords in the world could do such a thing?

They were just lowly commoners. Many even worried about being held accountable for the death of Lord Richard’s two mummies…

No one had expected such a situation.

This tremendous contrast made them predominantly excited.

After Richard received the simple map, he took the mummies specifically chosen to guard the Russian olive forest.

Karu looked at his back and muttered.

“Lord Richard…”

The detailed look in his eyes turned into determination.

After Richard completely disappeared, Karu slowly turned around and looked at the others.

He said in a deep voice.

“Open your eyes and look! That is the Lord of Twilight City!

“Remember, no matter what you encounter in the future, never betray Lord Richard, never betray Twilight City!”

Without waiting for the crowd to respond, Karu turned around and left. His old body was distinctly tall and straight.

Only a group of people whose emotions were fermenting were left behind.
