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

As the Twilight City troops stepped on the soft yellow sand, they arrived at the bronze door on the far right.

Although it was the smallest sub-door, it was at least 30 meters tall.

When a normal-sized human stood here, he suddenly felt as small as a dwarf.

The relief on this arch door was of a fat wizard with a big belly. The other party had a kind face and gentle eyes.

Gray wore a bandage, and the mummy stood guard around the door. Richard slowly approached when there was no threat.

It was unknown whether the yellow sand swallowed the map or not, but it had disappeared.

Only the black magic mace hovered in the air.

Richard reached out and held the black magic mace.

In the next second, a magical scene appeared.

The bronze door rippled like water. After a few blinks, the bronze door gradually turned into a half-bright door.

Only the statue of the fat wizard did not change. Instead, it became more vivid.

"Welcome home, children."

The statue suddenly spoke in a gentle voice. Richard suddenly raised his head. Was this thing alive?

Before Richard could react, the statue stretched out its hand and waved the mace in its hand.

The next second.

He felt an exceedingly powerful force that surged. His vision blurred, and he appeared in an unfamiliar environment.

It was an arched hall, about two hundred meters wide and more than thirty meters high.

Three pitch-black passageways in the surroundings led to an unknown place.

The ceiling was carved with countless exquisite colorful patterns as if it was the most luxurious palace. One could not help but be amazed.

Metal seemed to irrigate the surrounding walls and reflected a unique light.

A magic lamp emitted light not far away.

Although the hall was not bright, he could see the situation around him pronouncedly.

The unfamiliar environment made Richard raise his vigilance to the maximum.

He turned his head and looked around. When he saw that all the troops had not fallen, he weighed a sigh of relief.

He had been careless. The other party did not show any martial arts and ultimately launched a sneak attack...

[Ding~ You have entered the ruins. You are free to explore.]

After the system notification sounded, Xina gripped the hilt of her sword tightly and held the cross-shaped longsword in front of her chest. Her gaze was cold.

At this moment, the aura of a hundred battles veteran in her body became exceedingly conspicuous.

"Lord Richard, we have triggered the magic guards of the Resplendent Wizard Tower...

"The enemy is coming."

The moment she finished speaking.

'Crack! Crack!'

'Crack! Crack!

They heard a rotating sound of machinery from the front.

They heard the sound of orderly footsteps following from the three passages connecting the hall.

Richard's eyes narrowed.

"Troops, retreat to the front of the wall and fight against the wall!

"Blood-colored mummy, giant monitor lizard mummy, protect the front!

"Scorpion warriors, bandaged mummies, protect the undead soldiers and cursed pharaohs!"

After Richard gave a series of orders, the troops immediately organized the formation.

'Kacha!'

'Kacha!'

The sound rapidly approached, and Richard's breathing subconsciously slowed down.

The most startling enemy was the unknown.

After a few breaths, magic puppets emerged from the right and left passageways under the illumination of the magic lights.

They were two and a half meters tall. Their bodies made of green-gray metal exuded an indescribable sturdiness.

They appeared humanoid. A pair of eyes inlaid their heads and revealed white light.

Every row of magic puppets had a small team, and Richard's troop attacked them in unison.

They were too many to count.

After the magic puppets discovered the troops of Twilight City, their eyes immediately turned red and symbolized a threat.

"Intruders found. Kill!"

The magic puppets spat out mechanical sounds, and in the next moment, their hands suddenly changed shape.

Their wrists directly split open, and two sharp serrated blades extended out.

Those sharp serrated blades were half a meter long, which turned the magic puppets into killing machines.

[Magic Puppets]

[Level: 5 (Elite soldier, defense increased by 15%.)]

[Potential: Rare 3-stars]

[Skills: Body of a Puppet (C-rank), Serrated Blade (D-rank), Shield Breaker (D-rank), Armor Breaker (D-rank)]

[Race Skills: Special magic construct, strength increased by 50%.]

[Fetter-Puppet: Puppets can cooperate in battle.]

[Description: Every wizard likes to research and create magic puppets to protect the Resplendent Wizard Tower.]

[Rare 3-stars, Level 5.]

Richard's heart skipped a beat.

It was only the first stage, and the enemy was already so powerful. Wouldn't there be rare and glorious-level troops in the future?

A 3-star ruin was indeed terrifying.

Richard immediately gave the order.

"Gargoyles, rise into the sky. Blood-colored mummies activate Sand Transformation to trap the enemy.

"Soldiers of the Axe of the Dead, attack freely!!"

'Bang! Bang! Bang!'

The magic puppets moved in unison as they approached the troops of Twilight City. Their speed was neither fast nor slow.

However, there was an exaggerated sense of oppression among many of them.

The first to attack the magic puppets were the dark gargoyles.

These flying troops swooped down abruptly.

Their wings spread out the sharpest cleavers.

'Whoosh!'

'Kacha!'

The powerful strength that came with the rarely-seen troops caused the bodies of four to five magic puppets to explode with a single charge.

They were severely damaged.

However, these puppets made of metal were far mightier than ordinary life forms.

The dark gargoyles were about to soar into the sky with a single dive. The strong sense of obstruction prevented them from charging forward like they encountered the lizardmen.

After the magic puppets lost more than a squadron, they immediately responded.

They stood close to each other. Arms held out sharp blades and raised diagonally toward the sky like spears.

If the dark gargoyles attacked again, the first wave would hit their sharp blades...

After a short exchange, the severe collision began.

The five teams of magic puppets rushed to the front of Twilight City's troop side by side. The sharp blades in their hands slashed down with great power.

They could even tear apart steel.

'Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!'

The blood-colored mummy blocked the front and had no chance to dodge. Its body directly exploded and sent sand that flew in the air.

However, after the mummies activated the Sand Transformation, they could withstand the powerful magic puppets for ten minutes.

The sharp claws in their hands stabbed out, and they began to counterattack.

The magic puppet's metal body and defense were astonishing. No matter how the blood-colored mummy attacked, it could not cause any damage.

Although the attack did not succeed, it blocked the magic puppets successfully.

'Kacha!'

The chains rattled, and the tomahawks whistled.

The genuine killer soldier, the Axe of the dead, launched its most ferocious attack.

In a range of 21 to 40 meters, the power of the Tomahawk Slash was increased by 60%!

The magic puppet did not know how to dodge at all.

The tomahawks did not miss.

'Crack!'

Deep cracks appeared on the solid green-gray metal body.

One of the undead soldiers of the Axe of the Dead swung the chain in its hand.

It transmitted the body's explosive power along the chain to the tomahawk.

Endless power gushed out.

'Crack!' The metal body of the magic puppet severed into two pieces.

'Bang!' The magic puppet fell to the ground, its blood-colored eyes dimmed.

At the same time, a few crystal-clear gemstones fell out of the crack on its chest.

One of them rolled for half a circle due to inertia. Suddenly, an arm appeared and picked up the gemstones.

Richard straightened up and was about to observe when the system notification rang.

[Ding~ You have obtained 1 unit of a gemstone.]

He was slightly stunned.

When he followed the direction of the gemstones, he saw the broken chests of the magic puppets and several gems scattered on the ground.

In an instant, a prodigious sense of surprise surged into his mind.

"These gemstones drive the magic puppets?"

In his gaze, the magic puppet threats immediately turned into glittering treasures.

"Tear down all these magic puppets! Don't let anyone escape!!

"There might be over a thousand magic puppets here... F*ck, this wave would be abundant."
