Chapter 208 - 208 The Construction Of The Dimensional Portal
Xu Yuan looked at Su Wan. Evil Eyes seemed redundant. They had no forging talent like the dwarves, nor could they be used as cannon fodders like the Skeleton Soldiers.
For now, Evil Eyes had no value in the territory.
“It’s not that bad,” he said, trying to comfort Su Wan.
Compared to the two other rewards, the last reward just fell flat. Su Wan felt disappointed.
Xu Yuan’s consolation rang hollow. She knew that the Evil Eyes were not that bad. The production cost was low, and they were pretty decent in combat.
If it was an ordinary Lord, they would be happy. However, to some of the Lords who already had stronger troop types, Evil Eyes were practically useless.
For example, Lord Aiur had his Hydra Warriors. So, he would not have much use for Evil Eyes.
As for Su Wan, she already had Black Gold Behemoths and Dark Dragon Knights. She didn’t really care much for Evil Eyes troop type.
She sighed. “Alright,” she said. “About our deal…”
She brushed off the temporary disappointment because she was eager about what came next. Xu Yuan was going to share a skill with her!
Su Wan was curious whether Xu Yuan would give her a skill she had already used before, or if it would be something new!
Xu Yuan thought about it. “There is no hurry. Let’s create the Evil Eyes first and see how they are.”
He was stalling for time. He planned to create Evil Eyes and use the Demonic Dragon’s Blessing on them. He had recently upgraded his Demonic Dragon’s Blessing to Level 4 and had received a special effect. The creatures under the effect of the Demonic Dragon Blessing had a small chance of transformation. He wanted to find out what kind of transformation it would be.
He had many questions. One of which was whether the transformed creature would return to its original form after time ran out.
If the transformation ended when the ability reached the time limit, then it was pretty useless.
Besides, stalling for time would make Su Wan think that Xu Yuan was reluctant to part with the said ability and that she would use it properly after receiving it.
“What?” The joyful expression on Su Wan’s face disappeared.
She realized that Xu Yuan didn’t want her to get the ability, so he kept making excuses and delaying it.
“You want to wait till we create the Evil Eyes? Then what? Are you going to find more excuses after that?”
Su Wan decided to endure the humiliation. But she wanted to make it clear to him that his tactics wouldn’t work on her.
Su Wan gritted her teeth and created the Evil Eyes.
Just then, the White Dragon Saint approached Xu Yuan in high spirits.
“Your Majesty, the Dimension Portal is almost done!”
After returning to Su Wan territory and being separated from the Fallen Angel and the Dark Enchanter, the White Dragon Saint had been thinking about the conspiracy of the Light-Types. The White Dragon Saint felt that the Light-Types were gathering in the Hero Plane to attack Xu Yuan jointly when he finally arrived. Having returned from the Overlord plane, he would be still weak, so they would take advantage of the situation and attack.
The White Dragon Saint wanted to gather all Dark-Types in the Overlord Plane and form an alliance so that they could fight on Xu Yuan’s side.
However, it was hard to go to other Lords’ territories. The Territory Core was of utmost importance, so the heroes and Lords both stayed near it to protect it. It was not easy to meet them.
Xu Yuan suggested the Dimensional Portal.
Su Wan had once received a reward that contained the blueprint to create a Dimensional Portal. Su Wan hadn’t needed the Dimensional Portal at that time. Besides, the resources required to build one were way out of Su Wan’s league. So the blueprint was left in the warehouse to gather dust.
Xu Yuan remembered the blueprint when the White Dragon Saint had come up with his plan. Su Wan had gathered so many resources during the tournament that it was not difficult to build a Dimensional Portal in the territory anymore.
Xu Yuan told Su Wan to give the blueprint to the White Dragon Saint for the time being. The White Dragon Saint was here to report to Xu Yuan that the Dimensional Portal was almost done.
“Alright. Let’s go and take a look,” said Xu Yuan as he rose from the throne and spread his wings. He flew out of one of the windows of the Dark Castle.
At this moment, a huge skull-shaped building was visible in the open field. The door was at the mouth of the skull, illuminated by blue light.
“Birdman gave me his coordinates,” said the White Dragon Saint. “We can visit them directly in their territory later.”
The White Dragon Saint was referring to the Fallen Angel.
…
At the same time, in a territory on the other side, Lufasi, the Fallen Angel, and his Lord, Gadar, were sunbathing by the sea and enjoying the breeze.
The Fallen Angel felt suddenly uneasy.
“What’s wrong?” asked Gadar.
The Fallen Angel shook his head.
He felt as though a warning came from the depths of his soul that something big was about to happen. But he didn’t know what.
‘Strange…’
“Lufasi, do you think we managed to negotiate with that kingdom?” asked Gadar.
Gadar wanted to discuss what had happened recently. His territory was located in the far west of the continent, right next to the sea. He had noticed a ship crossing the sea to enter his territory.
The ship had been full of humans. That made Gadar very curious. The humans on the Overlord Plane were almost always Lords from the Blue Planet.
Gadar didn’t know if humans were born in the Overlord Plane. From what he saw, he realized that the humans came from the other side of the continent.
That continent did not seem to follow the rules. They didn’t know about Lords or heroes. Instead, humans, orcs, elves, and other creatures were fighting to rule that land.
