Chapter 103: Breeding Living Mercury Slimes
Deep within the desert, Heki Stone was sprawled across an enormous golden throne.
It was clearly a throne built for giants. At just over a meter tall, Heki could not even reach the armrests.
This area had only recently been excavated.
The Golden Kingdom survived via tomb-raiding. Even in war, it never ceased to excavate underground ruins.
Heki Stone had been particularly lucky these past few days. His crews had broken through into a brand-new passageway that led to a vast subterranean city.
Judging by its scale, it had once been a city inhabited by giants. Every object within was oversized, including the gold artifacts scattered everywhere.
Any civilization buried beneath the sands like this must once have enjoyed an era of unparalleled splendor. As a result, these underground cities almost always yielded enormous quantities of gold and magical relics.
Heki had struck it rich. This was a city of giants, packed with gold.
The golden throne alone was likely worth tens of millions of gold, not to mention the warehouses filled with mountains of golden utensils and ceremonial objects.
