Chapter 485: Not exactly a genius move
A few hours later—
Dungeon, Third Floor. Inside what used to be Dreadwitch Castle.
Ding!
"Would you like to activate the Castle Heart?"
"Confirm!" Ethan didn’t hesitate for a second. Standing at the heart of the castle, he plunged his Sub-Castle Heart into the core of what was once the Dungeon King’s stronghold.
Vrrrmmm!
A surge of immense, ancient magic exploded outward, rippling through the castle, seeping into the earth, and stretching far beyond the horizon. It was like the land itself was waking up—recognizing a new master.
In that instant, Ethan felt it—this place was his now. The entire fortress, the vast territory beneath his feet, the dark, fertile soil—it had all submitted to him. It was now part of the Emerald Castle’s domain.
Ding!
"Congratulations, player Valkarion. Castle Heart activation complete. Please name your new castle."
Ding!
"Congratulations, player Valkarion. You’ve successfully claimed territory within the Dungeon. Mission progress: +1%. Keep going—plunder resources, seize land, wage war, dominate the Dungeon, and become the ultimate victor!"
