As he spoke, Richard reached out to help Adele up.
At this moment, the girl’s eyes reddened. She stood up and said firmly to Richard, “Lord Richard, even if I have to sacrifice my life, I will protect your glory! I will protect Twilight City!”
Richard smiled.
“Then, let us build Twilight City together.”
He paused for a moment. His tone was solemn.
“Adele, I have officially appointed you as the head of the blacksmith shop in Twilight City.
“Although we only have one blacksmith shop and a few basic blacksmiths, I believe that you can build everything.”
Only advanced blacksmiths could turn on the research function, and that was when this A-rank hero would show prowess.
Adele nodded fiercely.
“Lord Richard, I will do my best!”
Richard nodded slightly. After hesitating for a moment, he said softly.
“The search team should be back this afternoon…”
He didn’t continue because no one knew if the search team had found her father.
Adele’s eyes revealed some hope, but there was also some pain.
“If I hadn’t asked, those resident soldiers would still be alive…”
Richard waved his hand.
“Don’t blame yourself. When we recruited members of the search team, they all volunteered. And it’s not just for you. The relatives and friends of the other residents are lost in the desert. They also need to be searched. Even without your father, I would still send a search team…”
These words were honest.
The desert was too barren, and there wouldn’t usually be any refugees appearing. Even if Adele weren’t a hero, he would still send people to look for those refugees.
If Twilight City wanted to grow, it had a sufficient population.

These words touched Adele. In her opinion, this was what Richard had specially said to comfort her.
“Lord Richard…”
Looking at his big, watery eyes, Richard waved his hand and interrupted her.
“No need to say more. Go and tidy up the blacksmith shop first. They will be back in the evening. And if you can’t find them once, you can find them a second, or third time… The army in my hands will become stronger and stronger. At that time, I can send more troops out to ensure the safety of the exploration team.”
Only then did Adele feel at ease. After bowing, she left the Lord’s mansion with anticipation and trepidation.
Since Adele has such a strong bloodline talent, her father shouldn’t be weak either. He might even be a second hero.
However, it’s not easy to find people in the vast desert. Fortunately, the residents of Twilight City won’t get lost in the desert…
Richard looked at the empty hall and shook his head. He was in no hurry to leave.
Two hours later, the protective shield would be broken. Richard was afraid tragedy would happen.
After thinking for a moment, he walked out of the door and began to make the course of action.
First, he spread three and a half teams of mummies around Twilight City to be on alert.
If they encountered danger, they could give him a warning.
At the same time, he sent 13 scorpion warriors to protect the safety of the Russian olive forest.
The desert crown bee and the fire dragon rabbit were top-notch treasures. Nothing could go wrong.
Finally, he ordered all the residents to return to the territory and leave after lunch.
Although they didn’t understand Richard’s intention, none of the residents who heard the order had any objections.
After he had done everything that needed to be done.
Richard then waited in peace.
Two hours seemed to be longer than a century. For the first time, he felt that time was passing so slowly.
Finally, the system notification lit up when it reached 12 o’clock.
[Ding~ The shield of protection has been broken. Congratulations. From now on, you are free to explore this world. There are no more restrictions.]
[But please, note that your territory may be attacked by wild soldiers, aborigines, or hostile lords at any time. Please, protect and strengthen your territory and its residents.]
[I wish you eternity in the deadly competition of the ten thousand races for hegemony!]
After the system notification sounded, Richard felt something subtle had happened to his body.
There seemed to be no estrangement between him and this world. Even his breathing became exceptionally comfortable.
He felt comfortable after removing some kind of safety measure.
Was he wholly integrated into this world?
Richard’s mood was a little complicated.
He opened the [Forum Chat] with a bit of complexity.
The next second, the sand sculpture players immediately made his mood better.
[Gao~ Gao~ Kill! I, Long Aotian of the game “Shining Era”, swear to trample this world under my feet! The female elf, succubus, human princess, beast-eared mother of the Beast Race, Mermaid Race, and an undead vampire, are all waiting for me!! I want to conquer a large harem and control 3,000 different races at night!]
[Awww! Awww! Elven brothers, beastmen, bloodmen, human princess… All wait for me. I want to sleep with all of you!]
[F*ck, my membrane… Bah… My shield of protection is broken!! F*ck, I just offended a group of bandits yesterday, and they even sent people to investigate my territory this morning…]
[Please, help, a large group of bears is 1,000 meters away in a straight line from my territory. What should I do? A few days ago, I relied on my invincibility to continuously lure them to the side of my territory to hunt them down. Those bears have been driving me crazy these past two days.]
[What should I do without the shield of protection?? Who can save me? I’m willing to give up everything I have! I’ll give you anything you want!]
[Do you yearn to mobilize tens of millions of troops to flatten the plains, conquer cities, conquer lands, and ascend to the throne as a king? Do you yearn to surround yourself with beautiful women and have 3,000 harem members? Privately chat with me and buy the game “Shining Era” hack. Give your life a cheat!]
[Is there someone from the Kingdom of Lion? There are many wolves outside my territory. I’m so scared. Can you give me some resources to recruit soldiers? If you’re close, you can go offline. I’ll give you the specific price privately.]
[I didn’t expect that my brother in the capital would one day be down to the point of having no food to eat. The residents of my territory just rebelled, but my heart didn’t waver. Since they rebelled because there was no food, they thought I had hidden the food.]
[Hehe, they surely didn’t know. They truly guessed correctly!]
[Hahaha, I’ll starve you, bastards, to death. Why should I give you the food I worked so hard to earn? You just rolled your eyes and joined my territory? And I have to feed you. Why?]
[What right do you have to be fed by me? I’ll go to hell. I’ll starve ingrates to death!]
[Brothers, I just met a devil’s altar. He said that if I offered him the souls of 10 residents, he would use a skill in exchange. When I heard that, I exploded.]
[There’s such a f*cking good thing?? Those idiots didn’t exhaust me to death. At that time, I returned to my territory and deceived all the residents into coming to the altar. I gave everyone to the devil and exchanged them for 12 skills.]
[Hahahahaha! !! This is too awesome. Because of what I did, I have already obtained a middle-tier devil bloodline. I’m telling you, you can’t let those idiots get away with it. If you have to be ruthless, then be ruthless!]
Richard had more profound thoughts.
After watching for a long time, Richard’s expression was exciting.
The actions of these sand sculpture players were simply mind-blowing.
Some didn’t want to raise residents, so they sacrificed their people to the demons in exchange for power.
Some deliberately hid their food to starve the residents.
Some even sold the residents to enslavers like pigs.
He even saw a guy selling his territory directly to the aborigines in exchange for many resources. After that, he happily went to the NPC city to buy a house.
All kinds of tricks made Richard feel like he had seen a new world.
As expected of you, sand sculptures…
