Lord Of The World: I Become The Lord Of The Desert From The Start

Chapter 26: Chapter 25: Special Building – Hero’s Altar

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

When Richard heard the system notification, he fell into deep thought.

‘At this stage, although I can use the [Trading Market] to trade with players, there’s no doubt that the aborigines who occupy the dominant position in the game “Shining Era” are the gold mines to be dug out…’

‘If the Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce can establish trade relations, it’ll surely be a great thing.’

Since Richard had not responded to his request for a long time, Onyx’s expression became increasingly indifferent.

Indescribable anxiety rose in Onyx’s heart.

‘Although the Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce was very famous in the [Deadly Desert], this Lord didn’t know about it.’

‘If evil intentions arose, Lord Richard could order his subordinates to kill them with a wave of his hand.’

In this vast desert, the Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce couldn’t know about it...

The more Onyx thought about it, the more terrified he became when he saw Richard’s impassive face.

Onyx sneaked a glance at the ferocious scorpion warriors around him. Their emotionless eyes were coldly staring at them.

It seemed that in the next second, they would use the iron pincers that could easily tear apart horses and cut off his head...

Onyx’s anxiety magnified to the extreme.

In this strange atmosphere, Onyx gritted his teeth.

He then took out an item from his clothes and handed it to Richard.

“Dear Lord Richard, we lost contact with our caravan, and most of our goods are gone.

“Only this treasure that we snatched from the sandstorm is left.

“To thank you for saving my life, please, accept it. I think your territory needs it too.”

The guards around the carriage hesitated when they saw Onyx’s disposition.

They wanted to say something but feared the scorpion warriors around them, so they shut their mouths.

They didn’t want to die here either.

Richard was slightly stunned. He looked at the anxiety in Onyx’s eyes and then gazed at the scorpion warriors around.

Was this the real version of the alliance under the Solan City?

However, Richard was not going to stand at the ceremony. He reached out and took it.

[Ding~ You have received a gift from the Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce — Blueprint for the Hero’s Altar.]

‘Blueprint?’

Richard finally saw the blueprint!

He opened the attribute panel.

[Blueprint for the Construction of the Hero’s Altar]

[Level: Special Building]

[Characteristics: Can provide a layout in building the Hero’s Altar. Upon a hero’s death, it can be resurrected on the Hero’s Altar using resources. The Hero’s Altar can resurrect five heroes every month.]

[Space: 4]

[Resources Required for Building: 10,000 units of stone, 10,000 units of gold coins, 10,000 units of wood, 500 units of crystal, 500 units of gemstones, 500 units of mercury, and 500 units of sulfur.]

[Description: An extremely rare building blueprint. Even a dragon would be moved by it.]

“Hiss!”

Richard’s eyes widened.

‘Hero’s altar!!!’

‘Special building!!!’

‘Holy sh*t!!!’

The information given by the game “Shining Era” official site wasn’t much. But the Hero’s Altar was mentioned particularly. It was said to be a rather valuable item.

Richard didn’t expect that he would obtain this treasure from a member of a down-and-out merchant group!

That gave him a strong sense of surprise as if Richard had spent 2.50 yuan on buying a bottle of drinks and obtained a laptop.

‘Isn’t this reward a little against the rules? Hahaha, this feels so good…’

‘Was the reward for a sudden incident so unpredictable?’

‘This was a bloody win!!’

The only regret was that the Hero’s Altar required a lot of rare resources.

Richard didn’t even have a unit of this thing now, so he was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to build it in a short time.

However, Richard wasn’t in a hurry. The Hero’s Altar was a late-stage building, and he had only just begun.

Richard did not even have a hero yet.

Better keep it as a treasure first.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Richard patted the shoulder of the short sausage-shaped Onyx.

Richard was full of praise.

“Lord Onyx, I am greatly delighted with your welcome gift.”

“There is no need to think much. Twilight City needs friends and also needs to trade with the outside world.”

“Please come back to my territory with me so you can rest. In the name of the Lord of Twilight City, I promise you that even giant dragons can not hurt you in my territory!”

Hearing Richard’s words, Onyx’s heart that was hanging in his throat finally settled down, and he let out a long sigh.

“Thank you for your trust. It’s an honor.”

He had finally saved his life.

With such a big harvest, Richard was not in a hurry to explore other areas.

He asked the mummy and the scorpion warrior to help push the cart.

Richard brought Onyx and a few of his guards back to the territory. He agreed to help bury the bodies of their companions.

Seeing Richard return so quickly, Karu, who had received the news, was slightly surprised.

When Karu saw the eye-catching Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce symbol on the carriage parked at the entrance of the Lord’s mansion, he was a bit casually astonished.

“Lord Richard, this is the Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce symbol. Are they the lords of the Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce?”

Seeing that there were people who knew him, Onyx was starkly relieved.

As long as someone knew about the Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce, he was confident that the hosts would treat them well.

It was because rescuing the caravan of the Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce would be extremely rewarding.

That was the moral reputation that they had built up over the past decades.

“That’s right. These friends will start trading with us in the future. We have to treat them well!”

“In addition, we just defeated a group of desert bandits. The enemies’ mounts, the desert horses, have been hunted down.”

“Send someone to bring the horses back. Follow the traces of the carriage we came back from.”

Karu’s eyes lit up. “Yes, Lord Richard!”

After saying that, Karu immediately turned around and called for help.

That was a matter of making a living. Richard was more proactive than anyone else.

Onyx looked at this simple territory with a subtle expression.

It was the territory of divine grace.

The gods had created it using rules.

Otherwise, who would be bored enough to build such territory in the depths of the Deathly Desert?

The territory was still in a safe period, and Richard wasn’t worried about what Onyx and his people would do.

After talking and comforting some of the residents around him to take care of each other, Richard prepared to explore again.

It was still early today. And it would be a waste to stay in the territory.

However, when he was about to leave, Onyx seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly said, “Lord Richard, I’m sorry.”

“Lord Richard, when we were hiding from those bandits, we accidentally found a one-way portal. I don’t know if you’re interested.”

“We didn’t explore it. We don’t know what’s on the other side of the portal...”

After saying that, Onyx spread his hands with a pungent smile.

“We don’t have the chance to explore it in our current state.”

‘One-way portal?’

Richard’s eyes lit up.

“Where’s the one-way portal?”

Onyx took out the ancient map from his pocket and spread it on the table.

He pointed at a location.

“It’s about two hours away from your territory.”

Richard looked sideways and saw the images on the map in front of him constantly flowing as if they were moving pictures.

And the location that Onyx was pointing to, had the mark of a door.

[Magic Map]

[Level: Special]

[Characteristics: Can record the area that you have walked through, the Lord can know where you are at this moment.]

[Description: A magic item made by a powerful spellcaster.]

No wonder Onyx knew where he was so well.

This was simply another version of the system map.

Looking at Richard’s interested gaze, Onyx’s face immediately turned aggrieved.

“Lord Richard, this magic item is a forbidden item of the Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce. It is not allowed to be leaked...”

Richard waved his hand.

“No need to think too much. The gods have given us a better map. I’m just a little curious about it.”

Onyx was finally relieved.

Richard picked up the map and handed it back to Onyx after the system notification finished sharing.

“Lord Onyx, you can rest in my territory for a few days. It’s not too late to leave after you recover.”

“There are still many unknown areas around the territory. I need to explore them.”

Onyx immediately said, “You don’t have to be so polite. It’s our honor to be able to come to your territory.

“If there’s anything you need, just let us know.”

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Richard directly left the territory with the mummies and the scorpion warriors.

He was a little curious about the one-way portal.

Where did the portal lead to?

Could it be another area similar to the Dark Temple?
