<h4>Chapter 238: Reaching the Lake of Death</h4>


    Under Tully’smand, five airships left the Gnome Mineral Company. Three offensive airships provided protection around them, and two transport airships each carried 5,000 people as they flew towards the ruins of the war.


    On the way, Tully asked, “Mr. Tyrant, is our territory in the ruins of the war?”


    “Yes.” Lorne nodded, “Our territory is near the Lake of Death. This is also the main reason why I asked you to refine the Purification Crystal.”


    “I see. It seems that you are very familiar with the ruins of the war. Otherwise, you would not know so many mineral veins.”


    “Unfortunately, we can’t bring any equipment out. The construction equipment, the blueprints, and other items are all assets of thepany. The only thing that really belongs to us is ourselves.”


    Tully looked at Lorne apologetically, but he did not care.


    “To me, all of you are the greatest wealth. As for the equipment, I believe we will definitely have it with ourbined efforts.”


    In his previous purchase n, he had bought conventional equipment, which included more mining equipment.


    After the gnomes were settled, the miners could begin mining the surrounding mineral veins. With this money, Lorne could purchase more sophisticated equipment and the materials needed to build the cannon.


    Very good, everything went ording to n.


    …


    Time passed quickly. After a day of flying, the airship team finally arrived at the ruins of the war.


    When the yers saw the scene in the sky, it immediately caused amotion.


    “Gosh! The gnome’s air force is here!”


    “This isrger than thest time. Are they here to sweep through the ruins of the war?”


    “Damn, the gnomes are rich!”


    “Did they discover a huge treasure and are going to attack with all their might?”


    “Brothers, don’t hesitate. Hurry up and catch up. We will definitely earn money!!!”


    “Wait for me, I’ll go too!”


    “Charge! Let’s give it a try!”


    The yers in the ruins of the war went crazy. Arge group of yers ran towards the airship.


    …


    At the headquarters of the World Destruction Guild.


    Speck sat on the sofa with a dark expression. A day ago, he had been killed ten times by that yer called Ghost Deity. His level had fallen to below Level 10, and he was currently a rookie in the Beginner Vige.


    Such a depressing experience made him not log into the game for the entire day.


    The others from the World Destruction Guild were leveling up crazily in the game, but at this moment, Cross Fire suddenly went offline.


    “Boss, there seems to be a new situation in the ruins of the war.”


    Cross Fire opened the holographic screen and opened a recording. It was the scene of five gnome airships passing through the Doomsday Forest.


    “It’s just the gnome airships.” Speck said expressionlessly, “The five gnome airships should have discovered a new mine. Get our miners to prepare. After the airshipnds, go nearby and find the people from the Gnome Mineral Company. You can obtain mining experience from the gnomes, and your subss skills will increase quickly.”


    “Increase the reward for Tyrant and Ghost Deity on the ck market. I want to kill them!”


    “Yes, Boss.” Cross Fire nodded.


    “By the way.” Speck looked at him and said, “Has our trade caravan set off? This time, the gnomes have made a huge move. They will definitely attract more yers to the ruins of the war. We have to seize this opportunity to snatch the market first and crush all the small yers before earning a huge sum!”


    “Don’t worry, Boss. The caravan set off a day ago and moved along the fastest route. They have already arrived at the edge of the ruins of the war. They will probably reach the expeditionary army camp in another two to three hours.”


    “This time, we used 10,000 yers to transport the goods. The total amount is as high as 1.5 million gold coins. ording to our budget, we only need two days to eliminate all the solo yers. The remainingrge guilds will also be affected. At that time, we can directly upy 40% of the market share. During this period, the goods worth about 1 million gold coins will not earn money. However, after stabilizing, the remaining 500,000 gold coins worth of goods can bring us a profit of at least 1 million gold coins!”


    Cross Fire smiled. This was the ‘war’ that he needed to make aeback. As long as he did it well, he could still ensure his position in the corporation and would still be the follower that Boss valued the most.


    “Yes.” Speck nodded, looked at Cross Fire, and said seriously, “We have invested as much as 3 billion dors in this operation. It is thergest project the corporation has in the game. You have to be responsible and nothing can go wrong!”


    “I understand, Boss. I’ll supervise the caravans during this period of time.”


    …


    [Lake of Death]


    This time, there were offensive airships escorting them, so the team flew directly into the map of the Lake of Death.


    Standing at a height of a thousand meters, Lorne could see the darkke in the distance. It wasrger than he had expected. It was a boundlesske, like a vast sea.


    It was no wonder that it could be a neutral force in Iron Skull City. With its huge coverage and the depth of theke more than ten thousand meters, who knew how many water dwellers there were. If they really fought, it was unlikely that Iron Skull City would win.


    However, what interested Lorne the most was the appearance of theke.


    The Lake of Death was ck. Such a color was terrifying even on the ground.


    Behind the sky, the Lake of Death was like a boundless ck hole. It seemed like a huge mouth that could devour the sky. Just looking at it made one’s hair stand on end.


    The gnomes were also very nervous. They pointed at the area and discussed.


    Tully looked nervously at Lorne as he asked, “Mr. Tyrant, you won’t tell me that our territory is in the Lake of Death, right?”


    “Of course not.”


    Lorne smiled, “Don’t worry, Tully. Our territory is only at the edge of the Lake of Death. You don’t have to worry that the Lake of Death will attack us, because we are now affiliated with Iron Skull City. If they attack us, it will be equivalent to dering war on Iron Skull City. Just based on this, we will definitely be safe. Even this powerful and mysterious Lake of Death will be a natural barrier for us. Those forces that want to attack us have to consider the attitude of the Lake of Death. This is a very advantageous situation for us.”
