Lord Of The World: I Become The Lord Of The Desert From The Start

Chapter 765 471: Great Lord, You Don't Want Anyone To Take Your Country Away From You, Right?

?

Endless darkness enveloped everything.

Richard did not know how long he had been asleep.

It could have been a minute or a century.

He finally regained consciousness in the endless darkness.

He was just like one about to wake up from a deep sleep. Richard couldn't think or make a judgment.

He suddenly heard a low murmur in his daze.

However, the voice fleeted, and he could not hear distinctly.

It was like one recited a prayer but cried at the same time.

Round after round, without end.

The voice gradually cleared after an unknown period.

"Great Lord, please respond to our summons...

"Descendant of the royal family of Ell, I humbly beseech you…

"Lowly people betrayed the Kingdom of Ell...

"We will abide by the last words of our ancestors...

"I beg the Great Lord to descend..."

"Huh!?

"Someone called me?"

The Kingdom of Ell?! What country was that?!

The Kingdom of Ell? At the edge of the desert of death?!

Richard braced himself and tried to recover and stand, but he still felt as if he had not slept for ten days and nights. He felt a strong sense of powerlessness and an urge for sleepiness.

"Oh, Almighty Ruler…I beg you to look at this land.

"The royal family of Ell is willing to give everything to request your arrival…"

Richard was bewildered.

The voice grew increasingly weaker, but Richard heard increasingly clearly.

"We plea, oh Lord… Please descend!

At a certain critical point, the crisp sound of the system notification woke him up.

[Ding~ Your soul has received the blessings and protection of the desert and has temporarily merged with the desert.]

[Ding~ You have sensed the summoning of another plane. Do you wish to respond to the summoning and descend to another plane?]

[Note: This summoning can only summon a wisp of soul power. The dissipation of soul power will not affect the user. But it will weaken the user for a day.]

Someone summoned him?!

What was going on?

Richard, who had just woken up, focused.

He immediately sensed it carefully.

He was shocked to discover that he had not been resurrected and was still in his soul state.

He could sense that yellow sand surrounded him. It was like one buried him alive in the desert! No, one couldn't bury him. The yellow sand cheered and jumped for joy as if he belonged there.

One hid the two exits behind the sand in the endless yellow sand.

It was the Hero's Altar of Twilight City, which exuded a familiar aura.

He could see his people call for his return if he sensed it carefully.

Karu, Gray, Gunter, Adele… Everyone was there.

An aura of foreign species filled a plane on the other side. One could hear the constant prayers inside.

It was this voice that had called out to him in his daze.

He opened the system notification again and read it twice. That piqued his curiosity. 

"An unfamiliar plane?"

How did the other party summon him? Was it because of the protection of the desert?

Could he only use a wisp of soul power to descend?

He looked at it a few times. He turned around and headed toward the unfamiliar plane with intense curiosity.

He was stunned to find that the sand wasn't made of corpses but was condensed from nothingness like him when he got close to the sand.

He quietly arrived in front of the passageway that emitted the aura of the other world without any obstruction.

A wisp of soul power spread out and passed through the passage.

The descendant of the royal family of Ell, Tundel Ell, knelt in a majestic church with her sister, who was seven or eight years old.

The two knelt on the ground devoutly. The sisters clasped their palms together. They lowered their heads as they chanted the prayers their great ancestors had passed down to them.

They had prayed for half a month already.

The anticipation in their hearts dissipated each by bit.

A raging force had long ruined the planar summoning array. The royal family of Ell had spent countless years and repaired it, but they had only managed the magic runes on the surface.

The runes in the depths had already surpassed the upper limit of the spell casters' knowledge.

No one knew if the summoning circle could work because it was too broken. The royal family of Ell had not tried it for thousands of years.

No one could test how much weight a building that was about to collapse could bear.

They could only try their best to repair it as a last resort.

Now, this trump card they had long hid for a long time.

But a traitor in the end.

At this thought, Rui Daer's eyes dimmed.

Confusion filled his heart.

Where should they go? If there really wouldn't be any more reinforcements.

The raging blood duke was an extraordinary existence. And now, he had obtained the loyalty of the majority of the troop. The royal family, which only had the two of them left, had lost the right to fight the other party head-on.

Would the despicable traitor destroy the Kingdom of Ell?

How could they make the traitor repay the blood debt of their ancestors for taking their father's life?

"Sister, you're distracted…"

A cold voice came from the side. That caused Tundel to snap back to reality. She looked at her sister in a white nun robe with some shame in her eyes.

Her cold eyes were like morning dew. They were crystal clear and could make people feel ashamed.

"I…"

The skinny girl slowly shook her head as the words departed her mouth.

"You don't need to explain to me, sister.

"Continue praying."

However, she shook her head.

She pushed her long golden hair back and looked straight at her with her sky-blue eyes.

"Something must have broken the planar summoning array. It has lost its effect. We have no reinforcements."

Her voice was hoarse and endless pain filled her tone.

Her already tense spirit had reached its limit after half a month of undisrupted prayer.

And the summoning array that didn't respond dragged her into the abyss.

That broke her nerve.I think you should take a look at

No one could fathom how desperate it was to have their father killed, their family wiped out, their kingdom taken away, and themselves forced to hide like sewer rats.

The skinny girl in the nun's robe looked at the exhausted figure beside her with a complicated expression.

She reached out her pale and bloodless hands and gently touched the other party's face.

"Sister, I can sense it. A powerful soul is sleeping. He rules the desert.

"The desert is singing, blessing, praying, and singing again...

"He is about to wake up."

"The planar summoning array isn't completely useless.

"The plane has summoned the most powerful existence.

"Sister, the royal family of Ell… One should never sever it just like this.

"The plane is the descendant of King Ell, the royal family that guards the abyssal rift, and the brave and fearless warriors!"

Her childish words were incredibly persuasive.

A bright light shone in her eyes.

She said in a trembling voice.

"Little sister…Did you sense that powerful existence in the desert that slept and could respond to the prayers of the plane?"

The expression of the skinny figure under the nun's robe changed a bit as she looked at the altar with countless gems before her.

"Sister…That great existence, he has descended."

She finished speaking.

The gemstones on the altar incessantly cracked, and the energy contained in them surged into the sky.

A majestic figure under their gazes wore a black and red crown and a dark-flower-engraved black cape condensed.

He appeared, and tons of sand flew up from outside the magnificent temple and floated directly around him.

It added countless mysteries to the other party.

However, the majestic figure emitted an aura. That trembled their hearts even more.

He was like a king who controlled the lives of countless people or a superior in a plane.

He appeared and became the center of the world. No one else could suppress its light.

One could fake everything except for temperament.

The first time the princess of Ell saw that mysterious existence.

Then, she crawled down.

Surprise engulfed a trembling voice and resounded in the hall.

"Great Ruler… Tundel Ell, the descendant of the Ell royal family, pays you the highest respect."

A nun's robe shrouded the skinny girl and lowered her head.

"The great existence that rules the desert, Elsa Ell, salutes you."

Her tender tone had a special kind of softness to it.

Richard did not understand the language of this plane, but the illusory body he had transformed into could directly understand the other party's words.

"The royal family of Ell?"

Richard floated in the air. He interestingly looked at the two figures below that knelt.

He didn't expect such a wonderful thing would happen after Lolita killed him.

Someone had summoned him. The sisters looked at his appearance. They even treated him as a big shot. It was also interesting.

He just didn't know what was going on in this alternate plane.

What request did the other party have for summoning him?

That was an unfamiliar plane.

How many benefits could he gain from developing an unfamiliar plane?

He had already thought of this idea when he obtained the void sandworm. He did not expect the first time he stepped into another plane would be like this.

Moreover, he could directly open a spatial passageway as long as he could obtain the detailed coordinates of this plane with the void sandworm.

He pondered and became even more interested.

He gravely said afterward.

"The descendants of the royal family, you have summoned me. Tell me the intentions of the underlings."

He combined spiritual power with his inherent language. He could still understand the meaning through his spiritual power even if he could not understand the common language.

Only then did Tundel and her sister Elsa straighten up.

They looked at the blurry figure while he stared at them. Tundel took a few deep breaths and calmed down her excitement.

She said slowly, "Great being, I am the princess of Ell Kingdom. My country…"

Then, she narrated the story of Ell.

Her father protected the abyssal chasm. His most trusted and beloved general, the raging blood duke, betrayed and even killed him.

He would wash the royal family in blood afterward. He highly aspired the kingship. He would hunt down the Ell descendants and force them to flee.

Tundel took over her ancestors' backup plan. She used the planar summoning array, prayed for half a month, and now the majestic figure responded to the call.

Richard's interest grew.

He didn't care about this melodramatic plot. The royal family only had this much to do with seizing power. What new ideas could they come up with?

The other party had sent out the news. That was what Richard cared most about.

The Kingdom of Ell ruled a plane that had several intelligent life forms. The mines, rare resources, population, and soldiers his territory urgently lacked were all used here.

There were even cracks that connected to the abyss!

That was a plane with great potential.

Richard felt like he had picked up a treasure.

How much did he gain from the underground world?

This plane has much more potential than the underground world.

That is if they could occupy it.

Richard forced himself to calm down before he spoke slowly.

"Descendants of the royal family of Ell, what do you want?"

Her tone was firm.

"Revenge!"

Richard looked at them with interest.

"Then, what can you offer?

"Great Lord, you don't want anyone to take your country away from you, right?

"What do you most value?" Richard proudly asked. It was like he had prepared for this question.

"Great Lord, the Kingdom of Ell will forever believe in you and build a temple for you. Thousands of citizens will pray to you day and night."

Nervousness filled his gaze after she said that. Confidence engulfed his emotions.

This bargaining chip was likely enough to move him.

'Build a temple? Pray day and night?'

Richard raised an eyebrow.

He keenly sensed that there seemed to be something worth exploring.
