Chapter 323: Magic Logs?!

"That presence... it’s not just that little Green Dragon whelp. The Firebird from the first floor of the Dungeon is with them too..."

"So that means Skarvex, Drexon, and Xenodrath—those three useless fools—have already failed their mission? Hmph! Worthless trash..."

The massive Shadow Dragon let out a low, contemptuous snort, his expression shifting from a sickly green to a furious purple.

Then, with a voice like cracking ice, he roared coldly, his fury barely contained.

"Bring Durgash to me. Now!"

THUD!

Moments later, a monstrous Venomspike Manticore appeared before the towering Shadow Dragon, bowing low with grim reverence.

"At your service, Dungeon King Vorundar!"

"Send the order—recall Vhydrakk, Xaltheira, all of them! They’ve got half a day to prepare. Mobilize the entire army. By noon tomorrow at the latest, we launch a full-scale assault on Emerald Castle. No retreat. No surrender. This is war to the death."

His voice dropped to a guttural snarl, the air around him vibrating with raw fury.

"Listen carefully. Even if every last one of you dies out there, you will crush them. If you fail... then you’ll face my wrath instead. ROAR—do you understand?!"

Black flames of pure darkness spewed from Vorundar’s jaws, the sheer force of his Draconic Power shaking the cavern walls. The oppressive aura was suffocating, terrifying.

Durgash, the Venomspike Manticore, went pale instantly, his fur bristling, his muscles locking up in fear.

"Y-Yes, my lord Dungeon King Vorundar! Your will shall be done!" he stammered, then turned and bolted, wings slicing through the air as he vanished into the shadows.

Only Vorundar remained, the colossal Shadow Dragon pacing furiously, his rage boiling over in every breath.

He knew the truth—deep down, he understood the odds were stacked against him. The coming battle was a long shot at best. But as the proud and mighty Dungeon King, retreat was never an option.

That’s exactly why this had to end in a final, decisive clash.

Even if he lost... he’d make damn sure the enemy paid for it in blood.

...

Meanwhile, far away, Seraphina’s path to godhood was finally nearing its end.

Up in the sky, the storm was finally starting to die down—its fury fading, its winds slowing.

At the same time, a massive vortex began to form in the heavens.

And at the heart of that swirling maelstrom... floated a colossal, crystal-clear emerald, glowing with an otherworldly light.

From every direction, waves of magical Divine Power surged toward it, as if pulled by some invisible force—like a black hole sucking in everything around it. The energy poured into the emerald, fusing with it, building to a crescendo of raw, uncontainable power.

Then, cracks began to spread across the surface of the gem—huge, jagged fractures that shimmered like lightning bolts frozen in glass.

BOOM!

With a thunderous explosion, the emerald shattered.

From within the broken gem burst a monstrous dragon claw—followed by a pair of wings so massive they seemed to blot out the sky itself.

Then came the full form: a titanic, godlike beast, its body the size of a small mountain, radiating divine majesty and overwhelming power.

She had arrived.

"She did it!" Ethan’s eyes lit up, his voice trembling with excitement. "She really did it!"

Crimson Ultimate Hero—Second Awakening.

A god.

After everything they’d sacrificed, after all the pain and struggle... it had finally paid off.

ROOOOAAARRR!

Seraphina threw her wings wide and let out a deafening roar that shook the heavens. It was like a nuclear blast had gone off—silent for a split second, then erupting with unstoppable force.

The shockwave of her dragon’s cry tore through the sky, ripping apart the storm clouds for miles in every direction. The heavens themselves seemed to split open, leaving behind a gaping void and a swirling tempest of divine energy.

BOOM!

At that exact moment, a new power surged from deep within Seraphina’s body—something wild, something terrifying. It wasn’t just stronger than before—it was on a completely different level.

It was Divine Power, unleashed.

The sheer force of it rippled through the air like a tidal wave, shaking the sky, rattling the earth, and sending a pulse of dread through everyone who witnessed it.

This... this was the power of a true god.

And just then, Ethan’s ears were suddenly flooded with a rapid-fire barrage of system notifications.

The sound hit him like a hammer—his heart pounding, his ears ringing from the sheer intensity.

"Ding!"

No exaggeration—Ethan was completely floored.

His heart was pounding, his hands were shaking with excitement.

"Set all standard troop rewards to Tier 13 Green Dragons and Tier 14 Gold Dragons!" he said without hesitation.

Forget the gold and the basic resources for now—just the troop rewards alone were insane. He’d just scored 50 Green Dragons and 65 Gold Dragons.

That was a jackpot.

Adding that to the dragons he already had under his command, his total Green Dragon count was now pushing 150 units, and his elite Tier 14 Gold Dragons—Mythic Units—had reached 85 units.

That kind of firepower? Absolutely devastating.

And the gold and resources? Let’s just say the Emerald Castle’s treasury had basically doubled overnight—and then some.

No doubt about it now...

Quest rewards were the real goldmine.

If your luck held out, you could go from broke to filthy rich in a single roll. No one could stop you.

"Start the random special resource draw!" Ethan ordered again.

"Ding!"

"Player Valkarion has initiated the random special resource draw...

Beep... Randomization complete!"

"Congratulations! You’ve received 2,000 units of Magic Logs (S-Rank Quality). Please check your inventory."

"!!!"

Ethan froze for a second.

Then his eyes went wide, and he practically jumped out of his seat.

Magic Logs?!

That was one of the four ultra-rare construction materials used for the Forest Library, one of the most powerful special buildings in the entire Forest faction!
