Chapter 29 - Branding the Castle Lords With the Slave Mark!

Chapter 29 Branding the Castle Lords With the Slave Mark!

In just over 30 minutes, the entire continent was plunged into a hopeless rain of blood.

The invasion of darkness had left many castle lords dead or injured.

Even so, most of the castle lords still managed to hold on during that first invasion, as they had successfully killed many red monsters. In addition, they obtained a large number of gold coins and a small amount of resources too.

There were even some lords who had upgraded their castles to level five, which allowed them to understand the importance of elements.

Many of the lords were chatting among themselves in the (World Chat Channel] too.

[I didn’t expect that I’d be able to avoid the darkness invasion and upgrade my castle to level five!)

(Brothers! You will need elements to level up after reaching level five!]

(So it turns out that the most difficult part of the invasion is the beginning. When it was reaching the end, our strength began to increase slowly as we killed more of them, and it became less difficult in the later stages!”

(Brothers, I’ve just leveled up to a level five castle and even killed a level eight monster!]

[Why did I get so many useless gold coins though? Why is fate being so unfair to me? Why am I not given any energy stones and mutant crystals? all i get is gold coins!]

…

The invasion of darkness was coming to an end.

Back in the Holy Light Castle, Su Hao—who had plenty of wine and food to spare, looked at the information on the world announcement.

Everyone feared the invasion of darkness before it happened, but as soon as they experienced it, they all realized that it was not as difficult as they had imagined.

On the contrary, most of the castle lords had leveled up, and they had also gained some gold coins and other resources.

Su Hao, however, was the only one who knew that it was only the invasion.

The difficulty of each darkness invasion would be several times more difficult than the previous one.

If the castle lords did not improve their abilities accordingly, they would be completely crushed when they faced the invasion again seven days later.

However, Su Hao did not seem bothered that the darkness invasion was more difficult than the previous one.

No matter how difficult it was, the Sacred Night Worms treated it as if it were an insignificant matter.

In addition, he had already gained a lot in just half an hour of the darkness invasion.

He opened his warehouse information and took stock of his gains.

In total, he had obtained 9.61 million gold coins, 842 energy stones, 265 mutant crystals, and various other resources.

Even though the resources he had obtained were the most among all the castle lords, it was only the tip of the iceberg for his harvest.

Every lord who successfully dodged the darkness invasion would be given a chance at the lottery.

Before then, there were nearly 12 castle lords who had sought refuge with him.

After the castle lords turned into citizens and submitted to other castle lords, their lottery chances would then be given to the main lord.

He and the 12 other castle lords had successfully resisted the invasion, which meant that all 12 castle lords all had a chance at the lottery.

Su Hao, who had accumulated 12 lottery chances, had already walked from his room to the first floor warehouse.

(Congratulations, you have won 12 lottery chances!)

[Please turn the wheel to claim your prize!] It had been a long time since he did a lottery, so he wiped the dust on the roulette before pressing the button.

The wheel spun rapidly.

(Congratulations on obtaining 5,000,000 gold coins!)

[Congratulations on receiving 500 energy stones!)

(Congratulations on obtaining 10,000,000 stacks of wood!)

(Congratulations on obtaining 8,000,000 piles of stones!)

[Congratulations on obtaining 1,000,000 sets of refined iron!]

[Congratulations on obtaining a city-state expansion blueprint!)

(Congratulations on obtaining a slave brand!]

[One lottery chance left!]

Su Hao had used up the first 11 lottery chances, which resulted in 12.63 million gold coins, 20 million sets of wood, 15 million sets of stone, 1000 energy stones, and 600 mutant crystals.

He also received a blueprint for the expansion of the city-state and a slave brand.

Among everything that he had obtained, the city-state expansion blueprint and slave brand would be more useful to Su Hao now that he had upgraded to a level one city-state.

The city-state expansion blueprint could expand the city-state to a larger size, thus expanding its territory.

At that time, he would be able to take in more castle lords as his people.

The more he took in, the more chances Su Hao would have for the lottery.

Greater harvests would lead to greater risks, which in turn led to even greater chances of the subjects rebelling.

At that point, having a slave brand would reduce the chances of a rebellion to zero.

As long as they branded the lords who surrendered, their loyalty would be all but guaranteed.

Even if some people harbored evil intentions or had low loyalty, those who were branded with the ‘slave’ brand would have their loyalty soar to 100!

Su Hao immediately ordered all the castle lords to gather at the center of the city-state!
