In the dungeon.

Lilith gazed at the Blood Sucking Vine that was roaring at her.

Her eyes revealed intense interest.

Before the Great Calamity, mages were often great scholars.

Using the power of magic to dissect all things and seek truth was the motto of every mage.

Now that this long-lost Abyssal Demon had reappeared.

It ignited Lilith's strong passion for scientific research.

However, upon seeing the Blood Sucking Vine completely parasitic on the skeleton.

Lilith sighed again.

"What a shame."

"It's impossible for me to conduct detailed research on it now."

"For a mage to research the truth of all things requires a massive Mage Research Institute as a research base, a powerful Mage Alliance to convene high-level mages for academic research, thousands of mage apprentices to conduct experiments day and night, tens of thousands of adventurers to capture research materials, over six hundred industries, and eight thousand supporting workshops. In short, it requires a prosperous mage world to support in-depth research."

"And all of this disappeared with the arrival of the Great Calamity, until the destruction of the Great Cataclysm Era."

Thinking of this, a hint of sadness appeared in Lilith's eyes.

She murmured, "Things are not like they used to be."

"Pursuing truth is no longer the primary goal of mages."

"Powerful magic, terrifying spell damage is what mages pursue."

"Whether the Abyss exists or not is no longer important."

"Chasing history will only lead to getting lost in history."

Speaking of this, Lilith's eyes flickered with killing intent.

"So!"

"The Blood Sucking Vine is not important."

"The Abyssal Demon is also not important."

"Killing them and bringing the usable resources to the Lord is the most important thing."

Before her words fell, Lilith raised her staff.

And pointed it at the roaring Blood Sucking Vine.

"Explosive Fireball!"

A fireball the size of a washbasin shot out rapidly.

It fiercely bombarded the suction cup of the Blood Sucking Vine as it opened.

This Blood Sucking Vine was merely a green-quality creature.

It was even weaker after losing its host.

Hit by the spell attack of a golden tier 2 high-level mage.

It was instantly burned to ashes.

Along with the skeleton, it turned into dust.

However, within the ashes, a few seeds emitting a green glow remained.

"This is!"

"Blood Sucking Vine Seeds?"

Lilith walked closer and nudged them with her staff, confirming they were indeed Blood Sucking Vine Seeds.

"According to the rules of the prime material plane, Abyssal Demons do not leave seeds in the prime material plane."

"If they can leave them behind!"

"Then there is only one possibility."

"The Abyssal Plane has merged into the prime material plane."

"The Abyss has appeared!!!"

Upon reaching this conclusion, Lilith's heart grew heavy.

"If this situation occurs!"

"It would mean that all the Abyssal Monarchs of the former Abyssal Plane have died!"

"The rules of the Abyssal Plane have been tampered with."

In an instant, Lilith froze.

"Before I died in battle, an Astrologer prophesied the fall of the gods."

"The current situation!"

"I'm afraid it's even worse than the Gods Fall."

"Perhaps all planes have been wiped out in one go!"

Lilith dared not think further, the more she thought, the more desperate she became.

Because powerful beings like Deities, Abyssal Demons, and Devils who were once strong were all dead.

Now, these Lords from alien civilizations, their strength was so weak that it was inferior to even a novice mage.

Could they!

Truly be a match for the mysterious Mist Gods?

Lilith felt a flicker of despair in her heart.

But then she gave a bitter smile and shook her head.

"But they are also the only hope."

"As a dead person."

"I have no choice!"

Having figured this out, Lilith no longer hesitated.

She put away her staff and pointed at the Blood Sucking Vine Seed on the ground.

"Someone, clean this place up and take away anything useful!"

"Yes!"

The Valley Garrison, under the cleanup by five hundred Flame Mages.

Soon sorted out all the spoils of war.

And at the moment of this sorting.

Fang Yuan, who was far away in the main hall of the Wasteland Territory, finally received the prompt from his Lord's Mark.

"Ding, spoils of war cleaned up, acquired spoils of war: Gold Coins +1,000,000, Wood, Stone, Iron Ore, Food +1,000,000, Orange Source Crystal Shard *50, Purple Source Crystal Shard *200, Red Source Crystal Shard *500."

"Ding, acquired Orange Building Card Beastmen Steel Fang Warrior Camp *1, Purple Building Card Beastmen Spear Shield Warrior Camp *1, Red Building Card Beastmen Patrol Camp *1, acquired Orange Hero Beastmen Steel Fang Soul Fragment *1."

"Ding, acquired Purple Building Card Beastmen Venomous Thorn Wall Building Card *1, acquired Red Building Card Beastmen Spike Sentry Tower Building Card *1."

"Ding, acquired Orange Low-grade Weapon Steel Fang's Burst Hammer *1, acquired Orange Weapon Fragment *100, acquired Purple Weapon Fragment *500, acquired Red Weapon Fragment *200."

"Ding, acquired Orange Curio Demon Bishop's Lance *1, acquired Green Rare Item, Blood Sucking Vine Seed *5."

"Ding, your hero Lilith has occupied the Valley Garrison for one hour, you have successfully occupied the Orange Military Territory Valley Garrison, Prosperity +2000 points, Influence +200."

A series of prompt sounds suddenly struck.

Fang Yuan didn't even have time to prepare himself, and was momentarily stunned by the sheer volume of spoils.

After the last prompt sound.

Fang Yuan's body jolted, and he finally reacted.

He then quickly opened the spoils panel.

Looking at the more than ten lines of numbers within.

Fang Yuan swallowed his saliva.

"Millions in gold, resources!"

"Orange Building Cards, Purple Building Cards, Orange Equipment, Orange Curios."

"And most importantly!!!"

"An Orange Garrison!!!"

"This is just too much."

Fang Yuan didn't know where to start.

"I've been poor for too long."

"I've suddenly become rich!"

"To be honest, I'm not quite used to it."

Fang Yuan rubbed his hands excitedly.

"The rest of the spoils will have to wait for Lilith to send troops to deliver them."

"But this garrison has been successfully occupied, so I can check it first!"

Garrisons are a type of Military Territory.

On the Ten Thousand Realms Battlefield.

Military Territories do not produce any resources, and at the same time, they consume a large amount of resources every day to maintain their operation.

To station troops inside, to repair the camp walls, to dispatch infantry to build fixed patrol points, to drive away surrounding monsters, and so on.

If viewed from this perspective.

A military territory is an absolute liability for a beginner lord just starting out.

It could easily cripple their finances.

Ultimately, they'd end up with an undeveloped main city and no military territory built.

When a powerful enemy arrived, they'd be easily conquered, their city destroyed and their people killed.

But!

For every lord, a military territory is a highly sought-after asset.

This is because every military territory is equivalent to a large barracks!

Each military territory comes with corresponding unique unit types.

Furthermore, as the military territory is upgraded, the quality of these unit types will also improve.

The higher the base quality of a military territory, the higher the potential upper limit for the quality of its upgraded units.

A white-quality military territory.

Once its subsequent levels are raised, it could potentially yield a military territory that produces green, or even blue units.

And the units within aren't just one; even the worst military territories will produce two unit types.

Some high-level military territories can even produce three or rare unit types.

The soldiers produced by military territories do not require any resources or gold.

They are produced daily in fixed amounts.

Therefore, on the Ten Thousand Realms Battlefield.

As long as a lord discovers a military territory.

They will choose to occupy it first, even if it means gritting their teeth.

Because as long as the initial development challenges are overcome.

By the late game!

They can earn back all their investment just by selling soldiers.

And this is for a regular white military territory's development path.

Now, what he held in his hand wasn't white, but an orange military territory.

This starting point was an end that other lords would find difficult to reach in a lifetime!!!

According to Fang Yuan's understanding.

An orange military territory would have at least one orange unit.

If lucky, it might have two.

Back on Earth, Fang Yuan had even heard of military territories that produced three orange units.

Such incredible luck could make one's eyes turn purple with envy.

Of course, not all orange military territories had so many orange units.

Most had one orange common unit, and some unlucky ones had no orange units, only purple rare units.

And there were quite a few of these unlucky ones.

Fang Yuan looked at his military territory.

He rubbed his hands and said.

"My demands aren't high."

"Just give me an orange rare unit."

"If you can add a condition, I hope it's a melee front-liner!"

"After all, I currently only have a mage unit, which is a fragile ranged unit, a scout light cavalry, and a barbarian ranged unit in the backline."

Fang Yuan mused to himself.

Then, he took a deep breath.

"Come on."

"Let me open this blind box!"

Fang Yuan decisively clicked on the garrison's panel.

Then his gaze shifted downwards.

Directly to the production section.

In an instant, Fang Yuan's eyes snapped open.

He couldn't help but exclaim.

"Holy crap!"

"Two orange, two purple, one red!"

"Five unit types!!!"
