Swamp Lord with an Intelligence System-Chapter 529 - 233: Scooping Up Profits and Loot

As Lear’s emotions surged, a commotion suddenly came from within the iron ore.

Clatter~

Masses of ore splashed as ten creatures, each standing four meters tall and looking particularly ferocious, crawled out.

Bloodthirsty Giants.

The guardians of the treasury!

These monsters had bulging blood-red veins encasing their grayish-brown bodies.

They looked like their bodies were tied up with red ropes, giving off a bizarre appearance.

They hunched their bodies, placing both hands on the ground, moving like a crawling human.

A row of sharp and pointed spikes grew on their curved backs.

They exuded an inexplicable sense of horror, seemingly ready to devour someone at any moment.

And each Bloodthirsty Giant had a Gray Dwarf inscription etched on its forehead.

Continuously flickering.

The Bloodthirsty Giants closed in directly, their ferocious faces revealing a vicious killing intent.

Lear remained calm and expressionless, waving slightly, the Shadow of the Mist behind him immediately emanated a furious mist.

It surged forth.

The mist instantly enveloped the Level 15 creatures, then abruptly tightened!

Creak~

The mist, like massive tentacles, directly bound the four-meter-tall Bloodthirsty Giants.

A slight lift, and it hoisted them into the air!

The bound Bloodthirsty Giants were instantly enraged, continuously roaring with fury, their tree trunk-like arms swinging violently.

The air erupted with intense sonic booms.

But the intangible mist, no matter how they attacked, could not be harmed.

Their vigorous struggles bore no fruit.

"Sovereign... they have been bound by me, awaiting your command."

Their souls were already enslaved by the inscriptions, making conversion impossible.

Lear waved his hand.

"Devour them."

The Shadow of the Mist immediately grew excited.

Under the glaring and incredulous stares of the roaring Bloodthirsty Giants, the mist rushed into their facial orifices.

These ferocious life forms felt indescribable terror, emitting hysterical wails.

They struggled more violently, with waves of terrifying power erupting from their bodies, momentum steadily rising.

But the mist was nearly invincible, without physical form, impossible to destroy.

Their struggles were futile.

Amidst the wails, the Breath of the Bloodthirsty Giants rapidly declined.

The ten Level 15 creatures were devoured alive, reduced to desiccated corpses.

Finally, the mist dispersed, and the ten Bloodthirsty Giants fell from mid-air, crashing onto the ground with a boom, scattering debris.

The scene was visually stunning.

The Shadow of the Mist, having evolved to Level 17... had transformed into a being of a different realm.

Even among creatures below this level, or even the same level, the mist ranked among the best.

After an added meal, the Shadow of the Mist’s aura rose slightly.

For this level, the small Level 15 creatures could hardly prompt any further transformation.

With the sole enemy inside taken care of, the treasury held no more dangers.

Lear stepped lightly to the front of the stone platform.

First, he picked up the fist-sized Lizard-man Demigod Eye, still smeared with blood.

This was the key to the Cold-blooded Cavalry’s next upgrade!

Holding it, he could feel it exuding a vibrant aura, as if it had just been plucked from a demigod Lizard-man’s eye.

Completely devoid of the coldness or decay of corpse fragments.

Lizardman Eye

Level: Special

Traits: Contains part of a demigod’s power, also concealing some demigod knowledge within. If a Lizard-man consumes it, they can gain this power and knowledge.

Evaluation: A rare and valuable item, hard to find.

After reading, Lear felt immensely satisfied. This hidden demigod knowledge must be the secret technique for the Cold-blooded Cavalry’s advancement, right?

Finally in hand!

The Cold-blooded Cavalry, his favorite ace troop, was about to undergo a major upgrade!

The main objective of this journey to the Underworld... perfectly accomplished!

He felt relieved.

In his heightened spirits, Lear turned to examine the other treasures.

On the stone platform, most of the remaining items were metal ores, only fist-sized, with a faint silvery-white hue that gave them a unique beauty.

Magic power was quite lively around the ores.

Secret Silver Ore

Level: Special

Traits: Can be smelted into the rare magic metal—Mithril.

This is Secret Silver Ore?!

Lear’s breath paused for a moment.

The legendary rare metal, capable of crafting divine artifacts, stood in front of him, with seven pieces on display!

However, they were still ores that needed to be smelted into pure Mithril.

Nevertheless, this was impressive.

Collect them, collect them.

The blacksmith shop, upon learning he brought back Mithril, would probably go crazy.

After collecting the Secret Silver Ores, two treasures remained, one being a three-meter-long, slightly curved long saber.

The handle was pure black, unadorned, feeling smooth to grasp without any awkwardness.

The blade had a faint dark red color, contrasting with the silver body, appearing very mysterious.

The last item was a horn with a gray appearance, inscribed with golden runes, exuding an inexplicable power. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

First, he examined the long saber—

Dragon Steel Blade

Level: 5 Stars

Traits: Capable of breaking through all physical and magical defenses.

Evaluation: Formed by Dragon Blood staining the ore into Dragon Steel, this blade was forged from Dragon Steel, possessing superior sharpness.

The attribute is super simple, just one, armor-piercing... but the level is as high as 5 Stars.

Looking at the long saber, gleaming with a chilling light, he was awestruck.

This item in the hands of a powerful warrior could be immensely effective.
