Choosing a lucrative target to plunder is undoubtedly the best way!
Lady Luck seems to be especially favoring Caelan, and now, a perfect opportunity has quietly presented itself.
Gyrus Demon, who was sent to follow the Robert squad and stay near Gluia Town to keep watch, has sent back some exciting news. Just four hours ago, Seth left Gluia Town in a grand procession with a dozen full wagons. Edgar and some elite dwarf warriors closely follow in his wake.
Caelan frowned slightly, and a moment later, a flash of understanding crossed his eyes. He guessed that Seth must have taken the mined Dark Iron to other towns. As a precious metal, dark iron is not in high demand even in medium-sized towns like Gluia Town. A large amount of it circulating in the market in a short period of time will instead lower the price of Dark Iron. Controlling the circulation ratio is the wisest choice. Gluia Town cannot sell so much Dark Iron, so Seth's only choice is to send the Dark Iron to a larger town.
The departure of a group of elite dwarf warriors, including Edgar, means that the top combat power of this medium-sized town of tens of thousands of people has instantly decreased a lot.
Caelan's gaze is fixed on the dwarf-ruled Gluia Town, and a flash of wildness and greed flashes in his eyes! If he can break into this medium-sized town, the harvest will be far beyond his imagination!
However, a medium-sized town is not a tribe of weak neutral creatures. According to Gyrus Demon's observations, the sturdy walls of Gluia Town are made of huge stones, and on top of the walls are battlements that look like silent guards standing in a row. At regular intervals, there is a watchtower rising from the ground, and the dwarf warriors in the towers are always on high alert.
Meanwhile, between the watchtowers, there are also some catapults, and huge mechanical arms that can throw deadly stones at attacking enemies at any time. And on the inside of the city walls, there are also some defensive facilities. For example, there are hidden fortresses, where the soldiers inside can ambush enemies scaling the city walls through the firing holes.
At the entrance to the city, two huge iron gates are incredibly heavy, with ferocious iron thorns and mysterious runes inlaid on them. On either side of the city gate, there are also two sturdy arrow towers.
To conquer Gluia Town, which has such perfect city defenses, it is obviously impossible without careful preparation.
Sitting on the Abyssal Throne, Caelan's eyes revealed determination and resolve. He raised his hand slightly, and a mysterious light flashed, followed by an endless surge of dark energy.

[Under construction: Abyssal Hatchery]
The clearing began to tremble violently, as if the ground had been ripped open by an invisible giant hand, and black mist spewed out of the crack. Amidst the thick fog, a brand new Abyssal Hatchery slowly rises. The number of Abyssal Hatcheries has increased from 1 to 2, and the rate at which Demon Soldiers hatch will be greatly increased.
Attacking Gluia Town, the flying troops will be extremely useful, as they are hard to counter! At critical moments, the surprise attack of the flying troop Gyrus Demon will be extremely effective! At the same time, the front battlefield will need a large number of Demon Soldiers to charge.

A mysterious, never-disappearing black mist always covers the surface of the Abyssal Hatchery. The mist is so thick that it seems tangible, preventing people from seeing what is going on in the pool. At this moment, the calm water begins to churn violently, as if being stirred roughly by an invisible giant hand, instantly forming rapidly rotating vortices. As the vortices spin faster and faster, more than ten incredibly thick tentacles slowly rise from the bottom of the bottomless pool. These tentacles twisted and squirmed, intertwining in the air to weave an intricate web. A strange, eerie green glow emanated from the end of each tentacle, a manifestation of the powerful energy contained within the Dark Abyss.
The black mist on the surface of the two Abyssal Hatcheries grew denser and denser, and the water churned violently. Dozens of black tentacles also rose from the bottom of the pool. One by one, cocoons of demons covered in mysterious patterns formed, emitting eerie light. These demon cocoons hovered in the pool for a while, before quickly flying out of the hatchery and landing on the ground.

After a few breaths, the mysterious demon cocoons began to tremble slightly, as evil forces struggled to break out. Immediately afterward, a low, menacing growl came from within the cocoons. Countless demon figures broke out of the cocoons and piled up in the Dark Abyss, forming a dark storm that was about to sweep over the eternal continent.
Caelan hatched a total of 50 Gyrus Demons, 500 Shadow Demons, and 5,000 Native Demons this time. The demons were packed together so densely that they were a dark mass, and the powerful sense of oppression made it almost impossible to breathe. There was no doubt that this was an extremely powerful demon army!
In this composition of the demon army, Caelan has given up the level 0 soldier Lesser Demon, and the low-level soldiers charging into battle are all composed of Native Demons.
In order to maximize the combat effectiveness of the Native Demons, Caelan also plans to upgrade the level of the race hero Morrigan to LV.2. In this way, all Native Demons can be affected by Morrigan's passive skill [Foul Miasma] and gain an attack power increase.
[Note: There are two ways to level up a race hero: one is to gain experience points through combat, and when the experience points reach a certain level, the level will be automatically increased. If you want to quickly increase the level, you can also use resource points to increase the level.]
[Do you want to spend 4000 resource points to increase the level of the race hero, the Evil Miasma Demon Queen, Morrigan, to LV.2?]
Caelan did not hesitate for a moment and decisively chose “confirm”.

A dark and mysterious light enveloped Morrigan. Her huge body trembled slightly, and the iron cage on her body made eerie sounds. The wart-like wonders on her fuchsia skin began to surge as if absorbing this mysterious power. As the light continued to pour in, Morrigan's aura continued to grow, and the air around her seemed to be distorted by the power of evil. Finally, the light gradually dissipated. Morrigan slowly raised her head, and the four pairs of scarlet eyes glowed with an even more terrifying light as if proclaiming her power to the world.

=======================================
Caelan slowly rose from the Abyss Throne and scanned the restless legions of demons with a piercing gaze. The demons waved their sharp claws and let out low growls, impatient to engage in battle. Morrigan, the Evil Miasma Demon Queen, swayed slightly, her iron cage glowing eerily in the darkness. Her scarlet eyes were filled with greed and she was already itching to get started.
The armaments are almost ready, and it's time to show Gluia Town our fangs.
“March!”
With a majestic command from Caelan, a mysterious and terrifying Abyssal Gate slowly opened in the dark abyss. The legion of demons stepped through the Abyssal Gate, their figures gleaming with an evil light in the darkness as they entered the Eternal Continent.
In the distant town of Gluia, the inhabitants, who are mainly dwarves, are unaware of the impending danger. They don't know that they have already been targeted by the demons from the Dark Abyss.
That evil force is quietly approaching...
