Deyue City (Three Chapters in One)

The underground palace of Lut Gholein's Imperial Palace was far larger than Abel had expected. Upon entering the second level, he found decorations in the same style and even more artistic furnishings. It was dozens of times larger than the first underground level.

Lut Gholein stood on the edge of the desert, where the climate was extremely dry and hot. These underground structures were perfect for escaping the scorching weather.

From that perspective, it was not difficult to understand why Lut Gholein's Imperial Palace had such an enormous underground section.

The wealth of the port city of Lut Gholein shocked Abel once again. The riches aboveground and on the first level had only been the tip of the iceberg of the entire Imperial Palace.

Within the vast space of the second underground level, exquisite works of art could be seen everywhere. If not for the appearance of the Hell Creatures, the place would have been like a museum.

Abel carefully cleared out the Hell Creatures here. He did not recklessly use Teleportation to advance quickly, because he needed the works of art. He already regarded everything here as his own property.

He intended to eliminate every Hell Creature here and take all the art away. These works of art would become his spoils of war.

Abel's life seemed to have returned to the days when he rested during the day and entered the Dark World to fight at night. He transported artworks while battling Hell Creatures, and his life once again settled into a stable routine.

The winter wheat harvest in the human world had arrived. Because the wheat had grown poorly this year, the harvest had been delayed by nearly half a month.

The winter wheat harvest ultimately suffered a widespread reduction, and the decrease was enormous—almost seventy percent.
