[401-600] LORD OF THE WORLD: I BECOME THE LORD OF THE DESERT FROM THE START

Chapter 491: New Troop...

Richard retracted his thoughts. He excitedly and unhesitatingly opened the [Trading Market].

He wanted to test the effects of this new function first.

The current price of each ordinary troop lair was lower than before. But he still maintained 400 units of resources.

Richard needed 100 ordinary-level, 1,000 rare-level, 10,000 glorious-level, and 100,000 crown-level to upgrade the troop lair from ordinary to elite. He needed one million to advance to radiant moon-level.

Each upgrade was ten times the number of the previous ones.

One million crystals x 400 was equivalent to 400 million units of ordinary resources.

Richard would need two million to upgrade the crown soldier to radiant moon-level according to the current price of one unit of rare resources exchanged for 200 units of ordinary resources.

Richard looked at the remaining 2.6 million rare resources on his attribute panel, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

So it was so lively that he could only nurture one radiant moon troop?

The higher the level, the more resources it would cost.

The number of radiant moon soldiers required to become transcendent would be even more astronomical–ten million ordinary troop lairs if it were an exaggeration to say that a crown would advance to radiant moon-level.

That was 20 million units of rare resources.

Richard’s eyelids twitched at the thought of this data.

All the rare resources he had earned had probably not even reached 20 million since he entered the “Shining Era.”

He must sell a few of his glorious treasures.

Richard took a few deep breaths to suppress the rise and fall of emotions in his heart.

“I’m still as poor as a dog with millions of resources in my hands… No one else has this feeling.”

Richard would start with the crown since he couldn’t ace radiant moon-level king of the imperial on a large scale.

He would need three days of cooldown before he could level up for the second time if he recruited them now.

He no longer hesitated at this point.

He opened the [Trading Market] and purchased troop lairs in large quantities.

He directly bought one million, according to the average of 400 units of resources, which was the price of two rare resources.

He quickly spent two million.

Six hundred thousand still remained in the attribute panel.

That must be quite a lot, but recruiting troops also required tons of resources, which could be insufficient.

Richard smiled bitterly.

The most arduous thing for the violent soldiers was not to expand the lairs from the looks of it but how to continue recruiting troops after one increased lairs.

Richard had never increased the number of troop lairs on a large scale because the resources needed to recruit high-level troop types were exaggerated.

The current income of Twilight City could not afford so many high-level troop lairs.

Richard wouldn’t have a thousand radiant moon-level even if one gave a hundred crowns. He couldn’t get the resources he needed to recruit.

“The greatest obstacle for Twilight City was poverty.”
