124 I Want To Follow The King

“It’s a building upgrade stone!” He was a little surprised when he saw the original form of the gem.

The gems that the contestants currently had were made from the building upgrade stone.

“What?” Su Wan’s head buzzed.

‘Building upgrade stone?’

That was an extremely valuable item, much like the troop class upgrade scroll.

It could upgrade a building by one whole level!

“Xu Yuan, why did you suddenly mention the building upgrade stone?”

Su Wan looked at the gem carefully. She wanted Xu Yuan to confirm it once more. She couldn’t believe it.

Xu Yuan held the gem in front of Su Wan. “This gem is made from the building upgrade stone!” he said.

Su Wan gulped. She was conflicted. “It would be so great if the gems weren’t used to just calculate points and instead, we were able to keep them!”

“Xu Yuan,” she said. “Can this gem still be used to upgrade buildings?”

Xu Yuan looked at the gem for a long time. He shook his head.

Su Wan’s face was filled with disappointment. It was like holding a golden cup in one’s hand but being unable to use it for anything at all.

Just when she was ready to give up on the idea, Xu Yuan said, “If I smelt and forge it again, it’s possible that we can use it to upgrade buildings.”

“Smelting and reforging?” Su Wan’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.

She recalled something else. “Xu Yuan, don’t we have dwarves? Their forging technique is first-class! We can let them smelt and reforge the gem into building upgrade stone!”

Xu Yuan had the same idea. But there was a problem.

“But… if we leave now and smelt this gem, won’t we be eliminated from the tournament?” asked Su Wan.

Xu Yuan didn’t reply. No one knew what he was thinking.

The White Dragon Saint laughed. He was very good at this kind of thing.

“You’re really stupid!” he said. “Can’t we just snatch the gems from the other Lords?”

The White Dragon Saint knew the rules of the competition. “The points will be calculated based on how many gems a Lord has. We can snatch them from other Lords and smelt them later.”

“When the time comes, we will leave the last gem behind. Based on that, we will have 1 point, and the other Lords will have 0. It doesn’t matter if we only have one point because we will still be the winners as long as other Lords have 0.”

To Su Wan, the White Dragon Saints idea sounded really good. Even Xu Yuan agreed. The results would be announced three days later. The points would be awarded depending on how many gems a Lord has.

One gem would mean one point.

The top three winners would receive a mysterious reward.

If Su Wan snatched all the gems to smelt them, her points would decrease as the number of gems reduced. However, as the White Dragon Saint put it, everyone would be at 0 points, but she could just keep 1 gem in her hand and still be counted as the winner.

“We don’t need to be smarter than others. We just need to lower their intelligence to your level. Then, we can use our strength to defeat them.”

“What do you mean by lowering their intelligence to my level?” asked Su Wan angrily.

“I meant what I said. You aren’t as smart as the others.”

“Xu Yuan, keep your underling in check!” Su Wan complained.

Xu Yuan ignored her. He was too lazy to pay attention. Not long after, the group decided to carry out their plan of snatching the gems from other Lords.

“Who should we rob first?” Su Wan looked around.

There were a total of ten Lords participating in the competition. Everyone had been randomly sent to the arena, so they didn’t know each other’s location.

According to Su Wan’s understanding, the first day was the time for everyone to gather information.

Therefore, the various Lords went into hiding, collecting information on each other and deciding on their strategies.

On the first day, the Lords would decide who their allies would be and who else would be the enemy.

Then, they would test each other on the second day, and the battle would begin on the third day.

Su Wan’s plan of starting a fight right on the first day to snatch away gems would be considered reckless.

Su Wan and Xu Yuan decided to go ahead with their plan.

In another part of the arena, A Lord and a hero looked in the direction of Su Wan and her team.

“It’s the aura of His Majesty. I can’t be wrong!”

An angel with three pairs of black wings, high up in the sky, looked into the distance. He looked in the direction of Su Wan and her hero.

His Lord looked in that direction too. He was confused.

“Lufasi, why do you keep looking that way?”

“This time, the enemy is not going to be easy to deal with,”

“What do you mean?” The Overlord was a young man.

At this moment, he was not proud of the fact that he had the six-winged Fallen Angel as his hero. He was cautious.

Even the six-winged Fallen Angel could not break through this stage. The participants in this Grand Finals were all very powerful. Their troops and heroes were not simple at all.

Without waiting for his Lord to finish, the Fallen Angel flew in a certain direction.

“Lufasi, wait for me!”

The Lord followed anxiously. “Lufasi, what’s wrong? At least tell me what happened!”

The Fallen Angel said, “He is the symbol of darkness. The uncrowned King. I want to follow the King! We are duty-bound to revive the dark and glorious!”

The Lord didn’t understand. However, he guessed that the Fallen Angel had found a very powerful entity. It was so powerful that even the Fallen Angel was willing to bow to it.

‘Did he find some ancient historical remains?’ thought the Lord.

He thought that the Fallen Angel might have found some ancient ruins and sensed the aura of a powerful creature. That was why the Fallen Angel had rushed in that direction.
