Lord Of The World: I Become The Lord Of The Desert From The Start Novel - Chapter 991
991 Chapter 554: Obelisk Special Rules – Heroes are Forbidden to Enter
The sky was dark, the light was gray, and blood-colored moss covered the ground.
Together, they formed a heart-wrenching background picture.
It would be even more terrifying with the presence of the ferocious giant worms.
The obelisk that stood in this strange area had an inappropriate temperament.
At a glance, one could tell that the building did not belong to this land.
The Twilight City troop hovered in the air. The giant worms on the ground sensed danger and subconsciously retreated.
The giant worm was not stupid without any instructions. It charged at everything it saw.
Richard’s eyes burned.
Last time, he had obtained three extraordinary troop lairs from the obelisk–the Evil Dragon Wings.
The value was linked.
However, what was more precious than the extraordinary soldiers was that the obelisk could drop ancient rules!
Rules! That was the power that only gods could control!
The outside world did not know about this characteristic, but the chapter on the dimensional explorer would gradually develop. This matter would be visible.
It wouldn’t be so easy to obtain the obelisk at that time.
Therefore, Richard had to take advantage of the early stages to capture as many obelisks as possible. It would be a vast profit when one of them could drop the ancient rules!
It would not be a loss even if the rules did not drop. Richard could just obtain the transcendent troop lair.
Molly, who was leading the team by his side, seemed to have thought of something. She confusingly turned her head. Confusion filled her eyes.
“There used to be a city near this obelisk that belonged to the Kobold God. Where is it now?”
Dark Valkyrie spoke softly.
“That city has returned to its original plane after the Kobold God fell.”
“The other party’s plane wasn’t originally connected to this mysterious region. The Kobold God alone used a special method to fuse them.”
Only then did Molly understand. At the same time, she relaxed a little.
“Does that mean we don’t have to deal with the Kobold God’s guards?”
“Perhaps the enemy has already taken down the obelisk. After the retreat, we can directly take over this building.”
Having been cut off from the outside world for the past few months, Molly, like all the other Krina warriors, did not know the uniqueness of the obelisk.
Richard frowned.
That was what he was most worried about. He would not be able to escape if the Kobold God was one step ahead of him.
Wouldn’t that be a waste of effort?
He could not sit still anymore.
“All troops, prepare for battle!
“Continue forward!”
Richard spoke, and the golden lion ran forward.
Alves’s eyes burned with soul fire. It stood behind him.
“Damn lion, you think you can be faster than me?”
Alves immediately flapped its wings and led its troops to follow.
That reduced the distance of more than ten kilometers by half in a few breaths.
One could see several trading troops guarded around before the obelisk.
The Kobold God did not attack this building.
Richard breathed a sigh of relief. He excitedly sped up.
However, a system notification suddenly sounded in his ear when he was 5,000 meters away from the obelisk.
[Ding~ You are near the unique building–obelisk.]
[Heroes are prohibited from entering within a radius of 5,000 meters of this obelisk. (except for the Lord himself).]
[Those who trespass by force will be banished to the void.
Richard’s expression changed slightly.
‘What the hell?
‘This obelisk forbids heroes from entering?!!’
Richard glanced at the few top-notch transcendents beside him from the corner of his eye. Dark Valkyrie, Loreinna, Emily, Kratos, and the golden lion made the corners of his mouth twitch.
‘Is there any law or justice?!’
Then, he had thought of something. He turned his head to look sideways.
“Molly, did the Krina Tribe approach the minaret?”
Molly shook her head. Her tone carried a hint of seriousness.
“No, because when our tribe men got close, they suddenly disappeared.
“Some powerful existence has pulled me into an alternate dimension.”
Richard frowned and looked at Dark Valkyrie.
“Fay, what was that aura you sensed back then?”
Dark Valkyrie spoke slowly.
“This area gives me a strong sense of danger. That sense of danger will multiply at a certain distance.
“You said before that the more dangerous the area, the more likely it is to have good things.
“No matter which direction I approached, I couldn’t avoid that sense of threat. That’s why I could sense that this tower was extraordinary.”
Richard stood rooted in the ground.
So Dark Valkyrie felt extraordinary?
Richard returned to his senses. He felt that it was odd.
He might have missed it if this obelisk was the same as the one above.
He might not have been so concerned with the Hero’s Altar that gave him hope if the distress note did not mark the obelisk.
The Krina Tribe would not exist if they didn’t arrive in time. Wouldn’t the obelisk be in his pocket after the Kobold God eliminated the external threats?
It was a pity he could not use transcendence to push the obelisk.
Richard quickly adjusted his determined attitude and spoke in a low voice.
“There are special restrictions in this area. Hero units are not allowed to enter.”
“Only the Grace Mainland Overlord like me is allowed to lead troops in.”
His tone became heavier as he spoke.
“Fay, you take the heroes behind to guard the surroundings.”
A few of them looked a little worried when they heard this.
None dared to say they could win if they were on the same level with Richard’s battle skills.
However, as subordinates, not only could they not share their lord’s worries. They also had to take risks for their lord. That was difficult for them to accept.
Dark Valkyrie said seriously.
“Lord, can I go investigate and try?”
Richard interrupted her with a wave of his hand.
He smiled.
“When the Twilight City had nothing, I led the troop to conquer the territory alone… Just listen to my orders.”
When the few heard this calm and unquestionable order, they immediately held their chests and dared not to say anything else.
The will of a sovereign was above everything else!
Richard got the golden lion off and sat on an ordinary skeleton blood dragon.
Then, he waved his hand and ordered.
“Prepare for battle!”
He commanded the skeleton blood dragon to fly straight into that space.
At the same time, the trop behind them entered in a single file.
This time, Richard had brought out the most elite troops of Twilight City with the soldiers he had prepared for a top-notch battle.
[Dragon Wings (Transcendence 1-star): 9 teams]
[King of the Imperial Troop (Radiant Moon): 21 teams]
In addition, the crown soldier, king of the imperial troop: 50 squads, 100 squads of stone statues of the dead, and 100 mummy guards: 100 teams
In addition, the glorious troop, sandstorm controller: 100 teams
There were a total of 380 squads!
In this troop, the lowest level was the sandstorm controller, with an average level of 12.
However, the sandstorm controller was a spellcasting soldier that combined two types of soldiers. It could form a sandstorm.
The team strength could eliminate the effects of being behind in level.
The other troops were all powerful, other than the sandstorm controller.
Especially the Evil Dragon Wings that Richard had just obtained.
They could act as a lowly boss if one took out one of these soldiers and placed it in front of the current players.
The entire troop quickly approached the obelisk.
The moment he flew within 2,000 meters.
Richard’s vision suddenly blurred, and the originally plain scenery suddenly changed.
A sea of blood appeared before his eyes.
Dark red clouds covered the sky.
Countless bolts of lightning flashed within.
A series of muffled explosions suddenly sounded and caused the entire sky to become oppressive.
Blood-colored boulders covered the ground that were more than ten meters tall. They looked like piles of rocks. There were barely paths in the middle of these boulders that were more than ten meters long. That allowed people to pass through.
A dark red obelisk stood tall at the center of the countless boulders.
Countless lightning bolts flashed at the top of the tower.
It looked like a demonic tower that could destroy the world. That gave people a strong sense of psychological pressure.
But this was not the end.
Richard felt the scenery change.
The skeleton blood dragon’s flapping speed slowed down.
They suddenly fell.
They turned around.
The imposing troop behind them could not maintain their momentum and incessantly fell.
This obelisk was the same as the previous one. Forbidden flight!
Richard released the order.
“The troop will maintain a stable landing!
“Flight is prohibited in this area!”
The soldiers received the order and struggled as they landed.
The skeleton blood dragon landed on the ground. Richard jumped down immediately.
It landed on the ground.
The fine sand in the surroundings surged and enveloped him.
Then, more invisible fine sand surged in all directions and covered the surrounding hundreds of meters in the blink of an eye.
Richard seemed to have thought of something and subconsciously turned to look in the direction he had come from.
However, his expression changed.
The scenery of the original Insect Race Plane had also turned into a blood-colored sky.
One could see a stretch of jagged boulders.
Richard turned head abruptly and ordered a team of stone statues of the dead beside him.
“Immediately explore the rear and see if you can still leave!”
The stone statues of the dead immediately returned after they received the order. A few stone statues brought sad news not long after.
He would not be able to leave this area even if he went back.
And behind him, he couldn’t fly either.
Richard frowned.
He took a deep look at the sky.
Good heavens, this set of rules was still strange.
He sighed. He turned around and looked ahead again.
There was no way out! Then, he would flatten this area!
