Chapter 404 - 277 We Will All Be Redeemed
Horus was very happy.
As the third-ranking figure in Trolian and the Archbishop of the Holy Church, he hadn’t smiled like this in a long time.
Since the structure of the Holy Fire Source showed signs of collapse, dark clouds had constantly loomed over his head, and the heavy pressure made it impossible for him to smile.
But now, from the moment he opened his eyes, he unconsciously had a smile on his face.
Everyone felt that their Archbishop, who was as rigid as dead wood, had sprouted and was experiencing a second spring.
And all of this was because of Rod.
The victory at Star Town thoroughly proved that expansion was feasible and sustainable. Rod’s expedition team achieved gains beyond anyone’s imagination with minimal input.
The initial investment from the Royal City was merely a battle group of one hundred people and supplies for one hundred people.
A giant true silver vein, extremely precious sun crystal mines, a piece of purified and extremely fertile land, and more living space; any one of these gains far exceeded the total expenditure by countless times.
The True Silver Vein greatly enriched the resources of the Royal City, enabling many warriors to wear armor and weapons containing true silver.
The sun crystal mine even alleviated the huge deficit in the Royal City. Each day, more than thirty people were able to undergo Spiritual Power Level upgrade ceremonies because of the sun crystals mined from Star Town, no longer hindered by an inability to advance in Spiritual Energy training.
