New Resources!

"The troops were Fifth Rank, with strength ranging from Bronze Five-Star to Bronze Eight-Star." Watching the scene, Su Ye made a rough estimate. At most, he could upgrade his Lord's Heart one more level.

Before Lilith and the others reached Bronze Nine-Star, he could only upgrade his Lord's Heart one more time. Otherwise, Silver Rank monsters would begin to appear.

You could not judge invading monsters solely by their levels; you also had to consider their ranks. From Third Rank at the beginning to Fifth Rank now, the gap between them was far from small.

At the same level, Fifth Rank creatures could utterly crush Third Rank and Fourth Rank creatures.

However, to Su Ye's troops, there was no real difference between Fifth Rank troops and Demigod Rank troops. Below God Level, all were ants. The only issue was their level.

Su Ye had already seen the Rank Reduction caused by level differences. As always, stability was everything to him. There was no need to rush.

Accumulation was important, but not at the cost of sacrificing everything. The lord's path was long, and Su Ye had not even truly begun. Steady development was what mattered most.

It was enough to reliably obtain one SSS-Rank Abyss Difficulty Rating Chest every day.

The battle began!!

Against creatures of the same rank, Lilith and the others carried out a one-sided Slaughter. If they had not been feeding the newly recruited troops, they would have killed even faster.

Su Ye sat cross-legged on the grass. Not far away, a bloody Slaughter unfolded, as though they belonged to two separate worlds.

"System, open the Daily Combat Power Gift Pack." Su Ye spoke to the system. He had yet to open today's Combat Power Gift Pack.

[Ding: You obtained Gold Coin x1000]

[Ding: You obtained Origin Crystal x100]

[Ding: You obtained Barracks Upgrade Card x1]

"Not bad." Su Ye looked at what had come out of today's Combat Power Gift Pack.

There were only three types of items, but they were all necessities. The Barracks Upgrade Card, in particular, was crucial to Su Ye.

"That makes three Barracks Upgrade Cards." A glint flashed in Su Ye's eyes, and he opened his private friend chat to take a look.

[Little Merchant: Boss, do you want a Troop Recruitment Refresh Card? I found the Seed of Chaos you wanted, but I haven't found the other materials yet.]

The message had been sent this morning.

Su Ye considered it but did not reply immediately. He did not have much money on hand right now, so he would wait until this Void Trial was over.

I hope more Gold Coins and Origin Crystals drop. Otherwise, I'm going to be screwed and will have no choice but to sell my supplies cheaply.

Su Ye closed the private friend chat and took a bottle of Black Iron Grade Wheat Juice from the Wine Pool and Meat Forest. It was a juice that could slightly increase mental strength, and he drank it absentmindedly.

As time passed, an hour went by.

The Void Trial ended, and all of Su Ye's troops had risen to Bronze One-Star.

Lilith and the others had even risen to Bronze Two-Star.

Seeing this, Su Ye could only say it was absurd. The resources needed for God Level troops to level up were truly outrageous.

[Ding: The Void Trial has ended. Evaluating...]

[Ding: Evaluation complete. Battle losses: 0. Enemies slain: 10000. Rating: SSS]

[Ding: You obtained an SSS-Rank Abyss Difficulty Rating Chest!]

"The number of monsters is increasing." Su Ye could not help thinking as he looked at the settlement log.

Ten thousand Fifth Rank Bronze Rank monsters, all Bronze Five-Star or higher. It was ridiculous.

"Decomposition!" Su Ye took a sip of Wheat Juice and directly invoked his lordly Authority.

[Ding: You decomposed 10000 Bronze Tier corpses and obtained Origin Crystal x3000.]

"Three thousand Origin Crystals? Not bad, I suppose. Just average." Su Ye looked at the 3,000 Origin Crystals he had gained through Decomposition and could only call it average.

Ten thousand Bronze Tier monsters, all Fifth Rank beings, yet only 3,000 Origin Crystals. That really was not much.

Su Ye then used his Authority to gather all the dropped treasure chests together. There were 3,000 in total.

[Ding: Would you like to open 3000 Bronze Rank Abyss Treasure Chests?]

"Open them all." Su Ye looked at the treasure chests before him and chose to open them all.

[Ding: You obtained Advanced Meat Resource Card x10]

[Ding: You obtained Advanced Iron Ore Resource Card x10]

[Ding: You obtained Advanced Copper Ore Resource Card x10]

[Ding: You obtained Primary Fire Element Crystal Resource Card x10]

[Ding: You obtained Primary Water Element Crystal Resource Card x10]

[Ding: You obtained Primary Mithril Resource Card x10]

"New stuff?" Su Ye looked at the items that had come out of the treasure chests this time.

There was no need to mention meat, Iron Ore, or Copper Ore.

Fire Element Crystal was a crystal containing fire-element power. It was a basic resource used for forging, alchemy, and enchanting. A Primary Resource Card contained only 100 units.

Water Element Crystal was the same as Fire Element Crystal.

Mithril was an advanced metal. A Primary Resource Card likewise contained 100 units of Mithril.

Su Ye put everything away. These resources should have been obtainable only by Novice Lords in the middle to late stages of the Novice Period, yet he had acquired them on his fifth day.

There were 5,000 cards of each of the six resources he had obtained.

"This wave has massively boosted my resources." Su Ye looked at his stockpile of resources and nodded in satisfaction.

Do not think these resources were worthless just because Su Ye could obtain so many at once. There were two reasons. First, this was the Novice Period, thanks to the Novice Buff.

Second, this was Abyss difficulty. It was hard to say how many people could clear Abyss difficulty in the future, but there were definitely none right now. That was why Su Ye could open so many resources at once.

Trying to use Su Ye's circumstances as a standard for other Novice Lords would be nothing but cheating. It had no meaning whatsoever.

Su Ye looked toward the rating chest.

[Ding: Would you like to open the SSS-Rank Abyss Difficulty Rating Chest?]

"Open it." Su Ye looked at the treasure chest before him expectantly, hoping it would contain something he could use right now.

[Ding: You obtained Rare Treasure Rank item: Dark Seed]

[Ding: You obtained Rare Treasure Rank item: Seed of Chaos]

[Ding: You obtained Rare Treasure Rank item: Holy Seed]

[Ding: You obtained Rare Treasure Rank item: Technology Seed]

[Ding: You obtained Rare Treasure Rank item: Element Seed]

[Ding: You obtained Barracks Upgrade Card x1]

[Ding: You obtained Troop Refresh Recruitment Card x1]

[Ding: You obtained Unique Wonder: Dimensional Gate!]

"Hm?" Su Ye listened to the system's string of notifications and was completely stunned. This time, it had given him so many things.

There was even a Unique Wonder?

At that thought, Su Ye began checking them one by one. First were the five Rare Treasure Rank items. They were all treasures Su Ye needed, and there was even an additional Element Seed.

"Now both the Origin Dragon Nest and the Holy Temple can be upgraded." Su Ye put away all five Rare Treasure Rank items.
