Chapter 688 - 651: Developing Nightmare Space
Now, a fluctuating Space Gate appeared above the Nightmare Space, and all the Angels cheered victoriously. At this moment, Remy looked like deep-fried chicken scooped out from a boiling pot, his whole body crisped and shriveled, unconscious.
Da Fei exclaimed in shock, "He won’t die, right?"
Ror shook his head, "Extremely weak, but he won’t die. Anyway, let’s go back first and listen to Lord Sazer’s arrangements. This Space Gate is very stable and should remain open for a long time. We’ll come back later to take care of Remy."
Da Fei nodded, "Alright, let’s do that."
Da Fei led everyone out of the Space Gate, and the scene changed; Da Fei appeared in the square of Divine Punishment City. Dressed in blazing golden light, Lord Sazer silently floated above the square waiting for everyone’s return. Meanwhile, Catherine sat on the ground laughing and waving at Da Fei.
Oh yeah! My darling! When else would I seize the chance to flirt!
Overcome with excitement, Da Fei immediately approached and hugged her, "My darling, you’ve suffered so much!"
Catherine laughed and said, "Captain, I kept begging the officer to save you, so you really should thank the officer!"
Da Fei laughed and responded, "Indeed! Damn, she kept begging? Could it be she would’ve ignored if it got worse?"
At that moment, Ror stepped forward and reported, "Lord Sazer, Garrison Officer Ror reporting back successfully!"
—System Prompt: Ror has left your team. 10 Elite Power Angels, 10 Elite Power Angels, 5 Elite Blazing Angels, 3 Elite Authority Angels, 3 Elite Intelligent Angels have left your team.
Sazer nodded with satisfaction and then praised, "Warrior, you are truly remarkable. Without any casualties, you successfully rescued Remy and defeated Demon Merriphis. Your bravery is beyond my imagination!"
Isn’t that obvious? Your reward should also exceed my imagination then. Da Fei quickly laughed, "Not at all, it was your timely intervention at the last moment that saved us. You are truly incredible!"
Sazer shook his head and sighed, "This time, forcefully tearing open the Nightmare Space cost us a considerable amount of energy. The energy maintaining our barrier won’t last long, and without it, our current troops are completely insufficient to defend Divine Punishment City. Therefore, Warrior, your next task is very arduous. I hope you can use all possible means to procure energy for us—various Demon Cores, Crystal Stones, minerals, Mana, etc. The more, the better! The faster, the better!"
—System Prompt: Sazer has issued you a resource collection mission "Collecting Supplies for Divine Punishment City"!
—Task Hint: Divine Punishment City urgently needs various Demon Cores, Crystal Stones, minerals, Mana, and other energy resources. You can transport them from the Mortal World or collect them by killing demons nearby. The more resources you contribute, the more prestige you will gain in Divine Punishment City, and you will receive better discounts when making purchases.
Damn, I return from an intense battle, and you don’t even reward me with a few beautiful Angel ladies, and now you assign me another task? But this type of resource collecting task that raises faction prestige by gathering materials is exactly the convenient model that players love, as anything missing can be bought with money. It is just exchanging money for prestige, and right now, I am certainly not short on cash. What a deal.
Da Fei immediately responded, "Please rest assured, my Lord. I will find a way."
Sazer nodded: "You have fully proven your capabilities, and the Angel’s Wings I lent you before will now be officially awarded to you. Of course, that’s not enough; with your current abilities, there is absolutely no problem for you to become a Temple Crusader. However, rising to a Temple Crusader requires the prestige of this city, and this assessment indicator cannot be omitted under any circumstances. That’s why it’s imperative for a warrior to undertake this mission!"
——System Prompt: You have officially gained the item "Angel’s Wings"!
——Angel’s Wings: S-grade limited strategic treasure, cloak equipment slot, allows heroes and their Vice Heroic Group equipped with this treasure to gain the ability to fly. Note: Only usable by heroes, does not affect ground troops. Limited to the Divine Punishment City map scenario.
Da Fei was utterly speechless; this was just another way to make him run errands for Divine Punishment City. Compared to Hydra and Nightmare sending Divine Artifacts at will, this was not on the same level at all. But on second thought, I went out of my way to save Thunder Angel, he didn’t assign me a mission, so him giving me something without a mission is quite meaningful already. Still, let’s talk about Thunder Angel, as I have officially triggered his mission.
Da Fei then asked, "Regarding this Remy’s arrangements, do you have any plans, sir?"
Sazer shook his head and sighed: "After all, it was you who saved him, and I was mainly saving my subordinate. It is not convenient for me to arrange anything for him; I just hope that in the glory of the Lord, after he regains his strength, he can advance and retreat together with Divine Punishment City."
Ultimately, the decision is left to the players. Da Fei hurriedly said, "No problem, that’s what he intends too. I plan to have Remy recuperate in the Nightmare Space first; do you have any suggestions, sir?"
Sazer nodded, "That’s a good idea, but I have an even longer-term idea, are you interested, warrior?"
Longer-term? Da Fei’s eyebrows raised, "Please enlighten me, sir!"
Sazer pointed to the Space Gate in the plaza and said seriously, "Just now, when I tore open the space to enter the Nightmare Space, Merriphis was just inside performing a space distortion collapse. With coordination from both inside and outside, the Space Gate I opened became very stable. If the intensity of this Nightmare Space does not increase, this temporary space rift could likely become a permanent Space Gate. Warrior, do you understand what this means?"
Da Fei was excited, "A permanent Space Gate?"
Just a moment ago, as Da Fei was pondering the use of the Nightmare Crystal, he had thought about that Space Gate above. If it’s a permanent Space Gate, it means I can bypass the Nightmare Space with the Divine Artifact Nightmare Crystal to reach Divine Punishment City! Then I can transport the high-quality Angel Species obtained as rewards from Divine Punishment City back to the Mortal World through the Nightmare Space! This completely solves the big problem of Legion Transmission from Divine Punishment City to the Mortal World!
Sazer said seriously, "Exactly, even if the strength of the Nightmare Space increases causing the Space Gate to be unstable and on the verge of disappearing, as long as the Nightmare Space holds significant value, we can still continue to invest energy to maintain the Space Gate. So my intention is to ask the warrior to fully develop this Nightmare Space!"
Develop? Indeed far-sighted, just what I wanted! Da Fei pulled out the terrifying building blueprints for the Nightmare Species dropped by the Nightmare, laughing heartily, "Sir, without talking about how far-sighted other things are, at least I can build a barracks in the Nightmare Space, which would give Divine Punishment City an additional recruitment source wouldn’t it?"
Sazer responded joyfully, "Precisely, that’s exactly what I meant! Warrior, you currently possess a reward of 500 Command Value Legion transport from this city; this reward is extremely precious, and I suggest the warrior transport 500 units of building materials over from the Mortal World!"
Da Fei laughed heartily, "Thank you for the guidance, sir, I understand!"
Ror laughed, "Truly worthy of being a warrior, I had mentioned developing the Nightmare Space back then, and I believed in the warrior’s capability!" (To be continued.
