Chapter 449: That’s just how Inferno fights
Maybe for the native inhabitants of Glory Lords X, these special buildings could be explained away as divine blessings or ancient relics—mystical structures granted by the gods or formed by the will of the world itself. That kind of logic made sense from their perspective.
But for players like Ethan, who had access to the game system?
It was a whole different story.
They could see things more clearly—more objectively. They understood the mechanics behind the magic.
Setting aside the two near-mythical anomalies—The Creator Order Dragon Asha and The Destroyer Chaos Dragon Urghash—who were basically walking, talking conceptual glitches in the system, everything else in the world of Glory Lords X followed a pattern. The Six Dragon Gods, the Eternal Deities, the Primordial Deities... all of them were essentially manifestations of the world’s laws—avatars born from the fundamental forces that governed reality.
In other words, at their core, they weren’t that different from the six basic resources, creature dwellings, or special resource nodes. They were all just different forms of condensed world energy.
So by that logic...
Special buildings were no exception.
They were simply fixed quantities of world power, crystallized into a usable form. Once that power was fully consumed, the structure would collapse—disappearing as its core energy faded away.
Ethan had suspected this for a while.
That’s why he’d been so cautious. He hadn’t let any of his other Hero Units enter the Divine Colosseum to power up. He was worried that if they all shared the building’s energy, Seraphina’s gains would be diluted.
