Chapter 14 - The Crystal Palace

You have collected 4 Blue Crystals.

You have collected 5 Blue Crystals.

...

You have obtained: Speed Enchantment Stone (Tier 1) (Incomplete)

Su Heng picked up the spoils of war from the battlefield.

This batch yielded over a hundred units of blue crystals.

As for the speed enchantment stone.

Su Heng immediately equipped Darkness.

Darkness gained a 10% movement speed bonus.

This 10% can be multiplied by the halo effect.

This is equivalent to Darkness's speed, with an additional 60% increase.

One of the reasons why Halo is so abnormal.

This is because all the attributes added by the aura are calculated by multiplying the troop type's attributes by the attributes of its equipment.

Otherwise, such a tiny bonus wouldn't warrant the lord's personal intervention.

It should be noted that when a lord personally leads an expedition, there is a risk of death.

Who wouldn't want to live a peaceful and comfortable life in their territory?

After Darkness's level is raised to 10.

The defensive attribute has already exceeded 10,000.

Darkness now has a full 75,000 health points.

Its defense, however, is 10,500.

One strike with the shield deals over 10,000 points of true damage.

This number is truly outrageous.

The Thorn Guardians have left the range of Su Heng's aura.

I am currently at the rank of lord.

The halo's range is only 500 meters.

Only after upgrading can you unlock new features and become more powerful.

Su Heng shifted his attention to the blue crystal mine in front of him.

"I wonder what kind of resource point I can unlock."

Su Heng entered the blue crystal mine.

The final, abnormal aspect of life's posture lies in this.

As long as Su Heng's troops are not all killed in action.

Su Heng is in a state where he is absolutely immortal.

This is much stronger than the Lord Core.

If Su Heng were to hide a type of soldier in a place where no one could find them.

As long as that unit is not discovered and no one dies.

Even if Su Heng suffers heavy losses, he will definitely not die.

For ordinary lords, the lord core is fragile. Before reaching the third tier, the death of the lord is equivalent to death.

After reaching the third tier, the lord is bound to the lord core, ensuring that the lord core is indestructible and the lord himself is immortal.

However, once the lord's core is destroyed, it will ultimately perish.

But Su Heng is now invincible.

It has no weaknesses.

We arrived at the blue crystal mine.

As soon as Su Heng entered the mine, he was somewhat shocked by the scene inside.

This is not a mine.

It's practically a palace of blue crystal.

All around, there were high-quality blue crystals.

Su Heng slowly ventured deeper into the mine.

This palace is magnificent and enormous.

From the outside, all you can see is the cave entrance at the foot of the mountain, emitting a blue light.

Unexpectedly, once inside, it was a completely different world.

Su Heng explored the crystal palace for about ten minutes.

This palace, even the floor is made of blue crystal.

Su Heng really wanted to collect it and see how much blue crystal this crystal could be converted into.

Unfortunately, he is not yet the owner of this mine.

There is no way to collect resources from this mining area.

It took about ten minutes to walk.

This crystal palace was unexpectedly enormous.

Su Heng estimated that this was not a mine at all, but rather a mineral vein.

Finally, in an open field, they saw a group of scorpions covered in blue crystalline shells.

[Blue Crystal Giant Scorpion (Hero)]

[Level: 15]

[Description: The scorpions guarding this mine possess immense strength, though they are not venomous.]

...

You have received an instant task.

[Mission: Capture the Blue Crystal Mine]

[Mission Objective: Clear out the guardians of the Blue Crystal Mine]

[Requirements: Blue Crystal Giant Scorpion (0/100), Defeat Crystal Scorpion King (0/1)]

...

"It was triggered as expected."

Each resource point will have a unique capture mission.

Once the capture mission is completed, the resource point can be captured, thus continuously producing resources.

This notification didn't pop up when I killed the Devilsaur.

Su Heng knew that those Devilsaurs were not the guardians of the mine.

It's quite possible that they were just passing by.

However, this area of mines...

The monster that's guarding us seems a bit outrageous.

Hero-level monsters, and a whole group of them!

How abundant must the resources at this mining site be?

Moreover, there are so many high-level monsters.

Darkness's level will increase significantly!

"Darkness, take care of them."

...

As time goes by.

One lord after another completed the trial.

Although they won't complete the trial as quickly as Su Heng.

But it won't be too slow.

Such small-scale battles don't require a long time to determine a winner.

[Blue Realm Level 1 - Lord Channel]

"Holy crap... this trial is way too damn hard."

"Two hero-level monsters, the S-rank trial is indeed insane!"

"Damn it... in the end I can only get an A-level reward."

"Be content with an A-level reward; my C-level rating is already laughable."

"Haha! I got an A-level reward! I got an A-level movement speed aura! It can increase movement speed by 30%! And the range is 100 meters!"

"Holy crap! What kind of lucky person is this? They actually got a movement speed aura randomly!"

"In the early game, exploring the map and killing monsters is so much fun! As long as your movement speed is fast enough, you can use kiting tactics!"

"Sigh~ I got a defense aura, which increases my defense by 30%, but I'm definitely much stronger when I get hit."

"Damn it, why is it that only A-level rating experts are chatting? Is there no room for a C-level loser like me to survive?"

"Take a guess, how many S-rank ratings will there be in this trial?"

"I think it should be ten, right? It's been this number every year. I'm just wondering if there will be any SSS-level lords this year?"

"Come on, an SSS-level rating has never been achieved in history."

"But every year there are a few ambitious lords who want to challenge it, and they end up losing their lives."

"The content of the SSS-level challenge remains a mystery to this day."

Alternatively, if a lord who challenges an SSS-level rank is killed instantly, then no message can be sent.

Alternatively, these lords might concede defeat in time.

However, I couldn't see the monster's appearance or attributes clearly.

In short, the lord had absolutely no understanding of the content of the SSS-level challenge.

All that remains is the legend of the inevitable death in an SSS-level challenge.

Meanwhile, in the entire Blue Realm's channel, the new lords were intensely discussing the results of the lord's trial.

An announcement popped up in front of them.

The Lord's Trial has ended!

[Number of lords who achieved an S-rank rating in this Lord Trial: 10]

Number of lords who achieved an SSS-level rating: 1

This notification popped up.

In an instant, all the lords were stunned.

The final difficulty level, which was considered a guaranteed death, was actually cleared?
