After Richard left the gold mine, he continued to scan the map with excitement.

The most direct manifestation of a soldiers strength was their level and potential.

[Level: With every level increase, a certain amount of strength can be obtained.]

[Potential: Represents the amount of strength that can be obtained after leveling up.]

Hunting not only allowed one to obtain resources, but also a large amount of experience.

To level up was an eternal melody.

It was not until dark that Richard returned to his territory with a tired body.

Although he was tired, he was in a good mood.

After todays busy day, he had gained a lot.

First, he had occupied a medium-sized gold mine that could produce 14,000 units per week.

Although it could not be compared to the harvest from hunting, this was a fixed income, and it was quite fragrant.

Secondly, he had annihilated the Half-Metal Giant in a head-on clash.

It had proved the combat strength of the troop once again.

It gave him a direct understanding of the strength of his hands.

Thirdly, he obtained a blueprint of a food workshop from the gold mine, which gave Twilight City another direction of development in the future.

This was a building with added heritage.

Lastly, todays scan had harvested a lot of prey and experience.

The Poisonous Scorpion Warrior, Cursed Pharaoh, and the Axe of the Dead had all reached level 4.

And they now crossed the threshold of level 5.

The system space was also filled with prey, and it could process at least 2,000 units of food.

The harvest was full.

Back in the territory, Karu waited for him as usual.

But today, the other party seemed to have a lot on his mind.

Only after Richard asked did he find out that the water level in the territorys well had dropped greatly in the past two days, which made Karu very anxious.

“Lord Richard, the water level of the territorys well has decreased again today… it might drop again in a few days…”

Richard also had a headache.

Water in the desert represented life.

The lack of water was fatal to the territory.

He had already accumulated nine pieces of spring water fragments, and he was one piece away to synthesize medium-sized spring water.

However, he had not seen any sign of transaction for the reward these days…

“I will resolve this matter, in two days, at most.”

Richard will augment the worth of the units of resources in exchange for the spring water fragment if no transaction is completed the next day.

Money was money, so spending it was not shabby.

When Karu heard this, he was finally relieved.

After Richard placed the harvest of the day by the well for the residents to deal with, he returned to the Lords mansion.

After his dinner, he opened the [Forum Chat] to behold.

At this time, he realized that he had become the subject of countless discussions, and his expression immediately seemed odd.

These sand sculptures did not change their character no matter where they went.

They had nothing to do every day, and they still had the strength to spit at each other.

He glanced at the reward that he still had not completed, and then went to search for the spring water fragments for sale.

He discovered that the other people who sold the spring water fragments were all heartless fellows, and their bids were more and more ruthless.

After he weighed up, he directly increased the worth by 30,000 units of resources.

He still couldnt believe that five desert horses and 30,000 units of resources were not enough in exchange for a spring water fragment…

After hanging it for a few minutes, a private message suddenly rang.

[Ding~ Your reward has been sold.

You have lost five desert horses and obtained a spring water fragment *1.]

The corner of Richards mouth twitched.

Why did he feel he lost money when the deal happened so quickly

However, he was also relieved in his heart.

He had finally gathered enough fragments to level up.

Three spring water fragments could be combined into a 1-star treasure spring water.

Ten of them could be combined into a 2-star treasure medium-sized spring water.

Thirty of them could be combined into a 3-star treasure large-sized spring water.

The water shortage problem in Twilight City had been delayed for a long time.

It was not a problem.

According to the estimation of the spring water in the Russian olive forest, the medium-sized spring water could be used by 3,000 to 5,000 people without a problem.

In the future, he would not have to worry about it for a long time.

After this problem that had troubled him for a long time was solved, he was in a good mood again and went to sleep happily.

It was not too late to put it away tomorrow morning.

May 10, early morning.

A noise outside awakened Richard.

With some doubts, he washed up and walked out of the Lords mansion.

As he traced the noise, he came to the area where the well was.

At this time, a large group of people gathered by the well was discussing something with frowned faces.

When they saw Richard, they were stirred up and quickly bowed.

“Good day, Lord.”

However, their tone was not as energetic as before, like an eggplant beaten by frost.

Richard raised his eyebrows.

“What are you discussing so early in the morning”

A resident with a sad face replied.

“My Lord, the well suddenly ran out of water this morning for some reason…”

‘Ran out of water

Richard was stupefied.

He took a few steps forward and came to the well through the gap between the crowd.

He looked down.

He saw a half-wet wooden barrel tied with a rope.

Drops of water slid down from the side.

In the wooden bucket, the water only flooded the bottom of the bucket.

Moreover, it was muddy water with a lot of sand, so it couldnt be drunk at all.

“Last night, Karu said that it could last a few days, but today, the water ran out…”

Richard instantly remembered the system notification the previous Monday…

This week was a special week: drought week.

At that time, he had even complained about the impact of drought on the desert.

Now that even the water source ran out, how could he be so unreasonable…

“Is this the power of drought week Its truly amazing.

We cant underestimate these special weeks in the future.”

The surrounding residents started discussion again.

“Lord, what should we do”

“Do we have to go to the Russian olive forest to fetch water in the future…”

“Why did the water well suddenly dry up”

“It didnt dry up suddenly.

I noticed yesterday that the water has become fewer…”

“Lets dig another well…”

The group of people was bewildered.

The drying up of the well had dealt a heavy blow to them.

This was a desert.

Water represented life.

One could not live without water.

At this moment, Karu had also rushed over.

His wrinkled face like an old tree looked even older after he had witnessed this scene.

“Good day, Lord…”

After he saluted Richard, he wanted to say something but didnt say anything in the end.

The worry on his face was almost overflowing.

Richard looked at everyones eyes and smiled.

Wasnt this going against the gun

Yesterday, he had increased the worth of resources for the last spring water fragment.

“Theres no need to be nervous.

I have a way.”

This calm voice immediately made the crowd quiet down.

The leadership skill had a strong charisma and could easily convince his subordinates.

A strong sense of trust rose in the hearts of the residents.

It was as if nothing could stop him after he spoke.

Richard waved his hand, and ten crystal shards appeared in his hand.

They looked like broken crystals, but they did not cut his hand.

The spring water shards were only one-third the size of a palm.

They looked like broken crystals, but they did not cut his hand.

[Spring Water Fragment — Can consume 10 pieces of synthetic medium-sized spring water.

Do you want to synthesize it]

“Confirm.”

The moment he made his choice, the spring water fragment in his hand suddenly emitted a bright light.

The surrounding residents were stunned.

What was going on

Those old residents who had seen the Russian olive forest and the birth of spring water were excited at this moment.

“Ive seen this scene before.

Thats a god-given gift… The Lord ultimately still has it!”

When the crowd heard this, they were instantly in an uproar.

“A god-given gift”

“Is that a god-given treasure! Gods above, I never thought that I would have the chance to see such a treasure…”

The crowd marveled.

They all opened their eyes wide.

They wanted to see what the legendary god-given gift looked like.

That ray of light gradually condensed in Richards hand, and the spring water fragments fused into a crystal ball that emitted a cool aura.

In the middle of the crystal ball, spring water gurgled.

It was full of a unique atmosphere.

Richard dragged the crystal in his hand and walked toward the well.

‘Tap! Tap! Tap!

The crisp sound of leather boots that stepped on the floor seemed to have stepped everyones heart at this moment.

He came to the front of the well and flipped his hand.

The crystal ball directly fell into the well.

“Ah!”

The crowd subconsciously let out a cry of surprise.

‘Thump!

The sound of a stone smashed into water rang out.

Then, the situation returned to tranquility.

Richard glanced at the crowd.

“Its settled.”

He directly turned around and left after he said no more nonsense.

The residents subconsciously parted to their left and right.

They looked at the silent water well, their faces somewhat stunned.

Why doesnt the god-given gift move

Did the lord just leave like that

While they were filled with confusion…

‘Bang!

A water column that was more than ten meters tall suddenly spewed out from the dried-up well.

After the clear water rose to the peak, it fell with a splash.

The clothes of the surrounding residents were all drenched.

However, at this moment, no one hid or felt unhappy.

As they stared at the water column that filled the sky, endless joy rose in their hearts.

“Hahahaha!! Theres water!!!”

Amidst great sorrow and joy, everyone seemed to have gone crazy as they began to run to the well.

After the high water column fell, the well water seemed to have an endless stream of spring water that gurgled from the well.

After the depression, people laughed and splashed water on their friends.

They released the fear and unease they had just felt.

Under the first ray of sunlight in the morning, they laughed like never before.

The water in the desert was hope, life, and everything.

Those who had not experienced the drought in the desert would never be able to experience the preciousness of water.

The lord had once again given life to this land, hope, and the future.

After a long time, the exhausted crowd quieted down.

A young man turned to look in the direction where Richard had left, speechless for a long time.

In the end, he slowly placed his hand on his chest and bowed towards the direction where Richard was no longer there.

This scene touched countless residents.

At this moment, everyones eyes scorched as they saluted the empty path.

[Ding~ Your actions have conquered the residents of Twilight City.
