Chapter 487: Sub-Settlement Dream

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

But Ji Ye wasn’t in the rush to make the exchange.

Because something happened in the past few days.

A beta tester died for the third time in the Land of Inheritance.

After waiting for 100 days, he entered the Land of Inheritance for the fourth time only to receive a notice that it would cost him 10 Rare Honor points to enter.

The problem was that before his third death, the player spent all his Rare Honor points before his settlement was completely destroyed.

This meant that he could no longer enter the Land of Inheritance and had lost the qualification of a player.

Apparently, three was also the magic number in the Land of Inheritance.

Moreover, based on the rules of the Land of Inheritance, the fifth time would cost one 100 or even 1,000 Rare Honor points.

That possibility stopped the players from exchanging all their Rare Honor points for Land of Inheritance objects to take back to Earth for money.

Rare Honor points were far more difficult to get than EXP and Honor, and some ordinary players probably still hadn’t gotten 10 points yet.

It wasn’t that difficult for elite players to accumulate 10 points, but they also needed to spend them, so they might not have enough in their accounts.

“I still have three more chances before I need those 10 points, so having enough Rare Honor points won’t be a problem, but instinct tells me that they must have some other hidden functions.”

Ji Ye made up his mind.

He then examined the rewards of this battle.

Just like the Night Patrol of A Hundred Ghosts dropped by the yakshas, after the Dense Fog was destroyed, they dropped a Special object as well. It was a skill ball with a faint silver glimmer.

[Dense Fog Dream Book]

[Level: Special]

[Rarity: Perfect (Rare)]

[Description: A cultivation method obtained by humans after studying the ability of the Dense Fog race. It could train one’s mind and give one the ability to walk and fight in dreams. Together with the Dense Fog Pearl, one could pull the target into dreams.]

It was a dream-related cultivation skill!

It was very valuable. Because as a reward for destroying an alien settlement, all members of Dragon City could learn it.

Once they learned it, they would have the ability to fight in dreams.

More importantly, after fulfilling some requirements, they could even drag all the enemies into the dream as the Dense Fog race did.

That was to say, Dragon City could train a “dream troop” that could kill enemies through dreams.

That way, not only could they reduce the physical damage to the settlement, but they could also obtain more intact rewards that could include the bodies of alien races.

Apart from the Dense Fog Dream Book, the Dense Fog had dropped another Special reward.

[Dense Fog Core]

[Level: Special]

[Description: The core of the Dense Fog race exists in the dream only and couldn’t be approached or destroyed with regular methods. Once it is transformed by a settlement core of the human civilization, one could build a sub-settlement with it, and the sub-settlement would also have that property.]

“A sub-settlement?”

Ji Ye’s eyes suddenly lit up.

Dragon City had decided to set up the first sub-settlement in Guobei County, but this newly found reward made him change his mind.

The truth was, Guobei County wasn’t an ideal place for a sub-settlement.

Because it was a little too far from Dragon City. The two places were nearly 50km apart, not to mention all the obstacles and monsters in between. Even players and natives who had learned the Divine Moving Technique would need an hour to get there.

In the case of a battle, Dragon City couldn’t send reinforcements quickly enough.

They had chosen Guobei County mainly to distract the yaksha and the Yellow Turban Army.

Now that the yakshas were annihilated and the Yellow Turban Army’s scouts all died in Lanruo Temple, Guobei County wasn’t as strategically important as before.

In comparison, using this Dense Fog Core to build a dream settlement was a better choice. After all, the core was so unique.

A settlement hidden in dreams and could only be reached through one’s mind would be hard to destroy.

Once the dream settlement was set, they would set up two sub-settlements using the yaksha settlement and Guobei County. Together, they could pin down enemies and attack them from both sides.

Dragon City could then expand from there and start the Road to Legendary task.

Ji Ye was level-headed.

Although the Road to Legendary task didn’t mention a time limit, judging by the first two tasks, they should start as soon as possible.

Since the task required them to awe a hundred races and make the entire continent aware of Dragon City, the more direct way was to destroy all the settlements that wouldn’t surrender.

Of course, that wasn’t an easy thing to do.

Because to achieve that, they would become the enemy of hundreds of alien races on the continent.

Although Dragon City had defeated the yakshas and Dense Fog without much difficulty, it would still be unbelievably difficult to fight 100 enemies at once.

Luckily, Dragon City wasn’t alone. Since the continent was of human civilization, forces like Guobei County and the Yellow Turban Army would be found everywhere.

Although most of them would be villains, just like what happened during the advancement test the yakshas used during their battle against Dragon City, even the villains would choose to fight back the outsiders first.

Of course, compared with villains, heroes, especially Transcendent-level heroes, were the key to enhance the capability of Dragon City.

“You’ve obtained 16 Dense Fog crystals that have reached the Special level, of which, 13 are offerings and are Uncommon at least. Three are Superior, and one is Perfect.”

Ji Ye was delighted to receive the information.

That was to say, Dragon City really was going to summon over ten Transcendent heroes this time.

Moreover, they would be summoned by using the Dense Fog crystals as offerings and would have the ability to fight in dreams right away. It would greatly improve the power of the dream sub-settlement.

“Master Ji is back!”

After destroying the Dense Fog settlement core, they all left the dream and went back to Dragon City.

The battle in the real world had ended as well.

“How did it go?” asked Ji Ye.

“327 were injured, and 23 were killed!”

Su Nongying immediately found the numbers through her Registration Book.

Knowing that they were bound to lose their settlement core, the Dense Fog race controlled a great number of “puppet” creatures and attacked the city in a suicidal mode. They managed to breach Dragon City’s defense line and caused casualties of a few hundred people.

But that was it.

With Li Chunfeng, who was wielding the Celestial Seismograph, and Li Guang, the Transcendent hero, the puppet creatures with little intelligence couldn’t do much damage. Instead, they became Dragon City’s rewards.

There were as many rewards as those provided by the yaksha settlement.
