Unique Wonder: Chaos Spring Eye!

[Ding: Open the SSS-Rank Abyss Difficulty Rating Chest?]

The system prompt sounded.

"Open." Su Ye licked his lips as he looked at the chest before him.

[Ding: You obtained Advanced Meat Resource Card x10.]

[Ding: You obtained Origin Crystal x1000.]

[Ding: You obtained Gold Coin x10000.]

[Ding: You obtained Advanced Wonder building: Innate Spirit Source Lake!]

[Ding: You obtained Unique Wonder building: Chaos Spring Eye!]

"Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit!!!" Only after hearing the system prompts did Su Ye understand the true value of the Novice Lord buff.

Setting Resource Cards aside, each Advanced Meat Resource Card contained one thousand tons of high-quality meat resources!

This was hard currency even among high-level lords. Military units were not just made up of a few dozen soldiers; generally speaking, a single military legion consisted of at least tens of thousands.

A thousand-ton meat resource card might seem like a lot, but high-level lord units consumed more than ten Advanced Food Resource Cards per day as a baseline.

There was no need to mention Gold Coins and Origin Crystals. The more of them Su Ye had, the better.

The key lay in the last two Wonder buildings, one Advanced and one Unique. Wonder buildings were divided into seven grades: Basic, Intermediate, Advanced, Rare Treasure, Exotic Treasure, Divine Artifact, and Unique.

For an ordinary lord, possessing even a Basic Wonder in their entire life would be quite good.

There was a saying in the Lord World: Wonders were a lord's foundation.

This showed just how important Wonders were.

Su Ye began examining the two Wonder buildings.

Name: Innate Spirit Source Lake

Grade: Advanced

Area: Diameter 100m–100000m (freely adjustable by the lord)

Form: Circular

Trait: Spirit Source Indestructible (continuously gathers spirit source energy and never dries up)

Function: Soaking in it can increase unit strength.

"Ridiculous." Su Ye looked at the functions and traits of his Innate Spirit Source Lake.

There was no need to elaborate on its trait. Never drying up said it all; as long as it was not destroyed by external forces, it would exist forever.

More importantly, it could increase unit strength. That was the crucial part.

The main way for units to grow stronger was by slaughtering monsters. For example, Lilith and the others had already reached Black Iron 3-Star.

Do not think that was high, nor think it was low.

First, Lilith and the others were God Level units, which meant they required more resources to grow stronger than ordinary units. That was why it could not be considered low.

Second, Lilith and the others had slaughtered monsters for an entire hour, and those monsters had all been above their level. Reaching Black Iron 3-Star was truly not high.

This Wonder solved one of the greatest problems for Su Ye as a lord: the future cultivation of his units.

Units needed to slaughter monsters to increase their strength. Simply put, they gained experience by killing monsters. No matter what rank newly recruited units were, they all began at Black Iron 1-Star.

That meant newly recruited units needed fresh resources for cultivation.

Thus, both Novice Lords and high-level lords faced the same problem: how to cultivate newly recruited units.

With this Wonder, Su Ye no longer needed to worry about the levels of his newly recruited units.

Even slow growth was acceptable. At the very least, Su Ye did not need to worry about resources for leveling his units, not in the short term.

Su Ye looked toward the Chaos Spring Eye.

Name: Chaos Spring Eye

Grade: Unique

Area: Diameter 10m

Trait 1: Never Dries Up

Trait 2: Water of Life (can heal any injury or curse)

Trait 3: Light of Evolution (animals and plants within your territory have a chance to evolve)

Trait 4: Favorable Weather (no natural disasters will occur within your territory)

Trait 5: Chaos Aura (your units take 99% less damage from any elemental source while within your territory)

Trait 6: Devour Evolution (can devour other wonders to gain new traits)

Su Ye looked at the Chaos Spring Eye, a gleam in his eyes. "So this is a Unique Wonder? I love it. I really love it."

Not one of its six traits was useless. More importantly, it could devour other Wonders to gain new traits.

Su Ye looked over his territory.

Other than the grassland, there were only two buildings left, one of which was a dilapidated wooden hut—the Lord Manor.

Su Ye directly used his Lord Authority.

A lake roughly one hundred meters across appeared within Su Ye's territory.

The clear lake water was filled with spiritual charm, transparent enough to see the bottom, though no living creatures dwelled within it.

Wonder: Innate Spirit Source Lake!

Then a spring eye emerged. From nothing, a fountain built from Chaos-colored jade appeared beside the Lord Manor.

Under Su Ye's deliberate adjustment, the water flowing from the spring eye slowly ran into the Spirit Source Lake.

Chaos light shone over Su Ye's territory, and the entire territory seemed to have been refreshed, gaining an indescribable something.

"Not bad." Su Ye nodded in satisfaction as he looked at the two new Wonder buildings in his territory.

It was still too early to see much. The Chaos Spring Eye needed the accumulation of time before its effects would become apparent.

Lilith, standing nearby, brightened at the sudden appearance of the lake.

"Lord God Emperor, can we go swimming?" Lilith came to Su Ye's side and asked softly.

"Of course. I prepared it for you in the first place. It can raise your levels," Su Ye said with a smile.

Lilith's eyes grew even more pleased. She had only wanted to take a bath and relax after the battle, but becoming stronger as well was naturally even better.

Su Ye did not notice Lilith's expression. Instead, he looked toward the Fallen Heaven Sanctuary.

Now that he had Origin Crystals, there was naturally no reason to waste time. Every day of the novice period was especially precious.

"Go take a bath first. Lilith, come with me," Su Ye said to Lilith.

The other Original Sin Fallen Angels looked at Lilith enviously before heading to the Spirit Source Lake together, intending to wash up properly. After all, they had gone through an intense battle—well, it should have been called a one-sided slaughter—and were somewhat sweaty or bloodied. Taking a bath was perfectly normal.

"Lord God Emperor, are you preparing to reward me? I'm already prepared." Lilith smiled at Su Ye.

Su Ye: ...

"We'll talk about rewards tonight." Su Ye led Lilith directly to the Fallen Heaven Sanctuary.

The Fallen Heaven Sanctuary required 100 Origin Crystals to upgrade.

Su Ye had quite a few Origin Crystals now, a total of 3,100.

[Ding: Upgrade Barracks: Fallen Heaven Sanctuary?]

"Upgrade," Su Ye said in a deep voice.

[Ding: 100 Origin Crystals deducted. Your Barracks: Fallen Heaven Sanctuary is now Level 2. You may check its detailed attributes yourself.]
