Chapter 33: Chapter 32: Fire Dragon Rabbits
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Miss Adele, we’ve decided to stay in Twilight City after our discussion!”
After lunch, everyone was assigned to their dwelling places.
This group of homeless people who had wandered in the desert for an unknown period finally made up their minds.
The warm food provided by Twilight City and a dwelling place that belonged to them had broken through their defenses.
They didn’t want to lose their family and friends, and they didn’t want to step into the endless Deadly Desert.
The endless yellow sand terrified them more than hell.
No one could guarantee that they could cross the desert.
And even if they did, so what?
It was a foreign land after all. No one would welcome them, and no one would care about them.
Looking at the white-bearded old man in front of her, Adele was silent for a moment before letting out a long sigh.
“Grandpa Duke, you don’t have to think too much.”
“Father brought everyone across the Deadly Desert to find a land where we can live in peace.”
“Twilight City might not be the most ideal state, but that lord is worthy of respect.”
“Let’s settle down here. Although the environment is harsh, and we might have a hard time, it’s still a good place to settle down.”
The white-bearded old man spoke slowly after holding it in for a long time.
“Miss Adele, perhaps, you don’t know, but I have asked the others.”
“The residents here have been eating meat for the past few days. They haven’t eaten any other food before our capture.”
“They all told me that they’ve gotten fat from eating meat.”
“These times are truly not that hard...”
After thinking for a moment, the old man continued.
“As for the environment... On the other side of Twilight City, there’s a spring. And near the spring is an acre of Russian olive forest.
“I’ve gone to take a look. Those leaves are truly crisp. The other residents said that it’s a divine gift that can mature once a month. It’s truly amazing.
“And there’s also the extremely precious Desert Crown Honey within. It is said that in the ancient era, the honey produced by the Desert Crown was once the exclusive tribute of the Emperor who ruled the Deadly Desert.”
“The Lord of the Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce has already begged to establish a trade channel with Lord Richard. Perhaps, it won’t be long before a large number of resources will flood in...”
“The other residents also said Lord Richard has mentioned in private that there will surely be more divine gifts in the future. He will plant all kinds of crops around the territory and make Twilight City an oasis in the desert...”
Adele stared blankly at the beaming old man. At this moment, she didn’t feel like she still wanted to go to the Holy Cathedral Empire.
It was truly quite good to stay in the desert.
******
After the refugees settled down, Richard immediately ordered Karu to find 30 young and strong residents and tell them to prepare food and water for five days.
Richard immediately went to the desert to search for refugees who had gone missing because of the sandstorm, especially Adele’s father.
At the same time, he also recruited 30 new residents and had them join the search.
To this end, he also brought half a jar of Desert Crown and water for these residents to drink so that their physical strength renewed to the peak.
Sixty people with six teams. Each team was responsible for the direction of the search.
To complete the hero recruitment mission, Richard gritted his teeth and sent two mummies for each team as guards, a total of 12.
This time, these search teams would spend the night in the desert, and the probability of encountering danger was not small.
However, there was only one way to do it. Benevolence could not be shown.
Seeing Richard’s decisive action, Adele was so moved that her eyes were watery, and her good impression of him immediately rose.
A man of his word. This was Richard’s bottom line.
It wasn’t only Adele’s father. Since he had promised others to help them find their families, Richard would also do his best to do it.
After arranging everything, it was already noon.
Richard came to bid farewell to Adele.
“Miss Adele, the territory’s food reserves have been depleted due to the arrival of the new residents. Currently, it can only last for 10 days at most.”
“I will go out to hunt immediately. Please, stay in the territory. If you encounter any trouble, please, help me take care of it.”
The valiant-looking Adele looked at the handsome youth in front of her and nodded with a determined gaze.
“Don’t worry! I will advance and retreat with Twilight City!”
She hesitated as she spoke.
“Lord Richard, why can’t I participate in this search and rescue? I’m not afraid of danger...”
Before she could finish her sentence, Richard waved his hand and interrupted her.
“Your safety is one of the reasons. The main reason is for the sake of the residents.”
Richard explained, “Right now, you are still shouldering the fate of hundreds of other people. You cannot act recklessly.”
He added, “I have already sent 60 people to explore. Don’t tell me that the area that you can search alone is better than 60 people.”
Seeing that Adelle still wanted to say something, Richard’s face stiffened.
“Obey the order.”
Adele was stunned. She suddenly felt a little wrong, but she did not know what to say. She nodded her head gloomily.
After convincing the girl, Richard didn’t say anything more.
Taking advantage of the fact that it was still early, Richard left the territory with 14 scorpion warriors and two mummies.
This time, he changed directions and headed toward the east of Twilight City to search.
Speaking of which, he hadn’t set foot in this area before.
The desert was too big. It would take him more than two or three days to search in any direction.
According to the old rules, he kept the two mummies by his side to protect himself. Then, he scattered the 14 scorpion warriors.
After a few days, Richard was already familiar with this routine.
After leaving Twilight City, he encountered the first camp of the wilderness troop in less than ten minutes.
This group of wilderness troops was humanoid. They had long gray hair all over their bodies and had a pair of sharp giant claws.
They looked quite fierce.
But what made him feel interesting was that this group of wild soldiers was confronting a group of rabbits.
He originally thought that these wild soldiers were hunting rabbits, but after looking for a while, he realized that it seemed like those rabbits were chasing the wild soldiers.
This was interesting.
He opened his attribute panel.
[Sharp-Clawed Halfling]
[Level: 2]
[Potential: Normal 3-stars]
******
The halfling’s attributes were very ordinary. Richard lost interest after taking a look at it. On the contrary, the rabbits made him excited.
[Fire Dragon Rabbit]
[Level: 4]
[Potential: Special]
[Skills: Flame Burning (C-rank) — When angry, the whole body will burn with flames.]
[Extreme Speed Running (E-rank) — Able to burst out extremely fast speed in an instant.]
[Race Talent: Can quickly recover the magic power in the body while basking in the sun.]
[Fetters-Sun: Under the illumination of the sun, the fur can store a large amount of energy and increases the maximum magic power by 50%.]
[Description: Unique natural life forms in the desert. Their fur is quite popular, so their numbers are very rare.]
In the game “Shining Era”, other than the soldiers recruited from the troop lairs, there were also a large number of natural life forms.
These natural life forms could not be recruited from the troop lairs. They prospered naturally just like the natives.
The elves who lived in the forest had always been dedicated to protecting the natural life forms.
Richard’s eyes revealed some amusement.
“Natural life forms? Rabbits with magic? How interesting!”
The description in the system also made him think…
Their fur was very precious...
This reminded him of those luxury items made from furs on the Blue Planet.
Richard wondered if this kind of rabbit could be raised?
He had raised rabbits when he was a child. This thing could grow very fast as long as it ate grass and vegetable leaves. Most importantly...it tasted good.
It was fine to raise bees in the desert, but it wouldn’t be too much to raise rabbits again...
Richard’s interest soared.
“2, 4, 6...23, 24, 25....”
“Two and a half squads. The scorpion warriors should be able to eat them.”
“Attack from the flanks! Leave a few alive!”
Rabbits were so cute that Richard decided to let the enemy receive better protection...
Those sharp-clawed halflings were directly ignored.
Richard was not interested in a soldier that could be killed with a single charge.
The two-meter-tall scorpion warrior attacked a group of rabbits that were half the height of a human. They had long white fur and looked like large plush toys. No matter how Richard looked at it, it seemed a little strange.
However, since these rabbits were covered in flames, no one would think that way.
The fire dragon rabbits transformed from harmless creatures into giant fireballs.
The added heat could easily scorch people.
