Chapter 60 of "Mystic Calling：Stone of Glory" unveils a new twist: Chapter 60: The Path to GodhoodAlthough Elynn was only an 8-Tier unit hero, there was a... See what happens!

Chapter 60: The Path to GodhoodAlthough Elynn was only an 8-Tier unit hero, there was a huge difference between a unit hero and a regular unit! Unit heroes had hero levels, Tier suppression, and additional attack and defense stat bonuses, which meant their combat power was always, without a doubt, far superior to regular units of the same Tier! In fact, once they reached their peak level, they could even wield power that spanned one or two whole Tiers above their own. This wasn’t just wishful thinking—it was something that could absolutely become reality! Take Elynn, for example. Right now, she was already over level 20 as a hero, and her combat strength had risen to the point where she could rival even top-tier 9-Tier battle units! She was even on the verge of breaking into the 10-Tier threshold. With that kind of power, taking down mere 9-Tier support and logistics units was a piece of cake—completely effortless! Boom! After a brief clash, the 9-Tier Moon Doe collapsed under Elynn’s sword! At the same time, Cicero and the unicorns had also entered full-on slaughter mode! Moments later, Ethan’s ears were practically ringing with the constant ding ding ding of system notifications. The system log was scrolling like crazy! Your battle hero Cicero has successfully slain a Moon Doe! Your battle hero Cicero has successfully slain a Sun Deer! Your battle hero Elynn has successfully slain a Moon Doe! Your 11-Tier unit, Unicorn, has successfully slain a Sun Deer! ... Before long, the two major wild Creature Dwellings recruitment sites—Moon Glade and Sun Garden—had been completely overrun by the unstoppable forces of Emerald Castle! All the 9-Tier Moon Doe and 10-Tier Sun Deer had fallen! "Got it!" Seeing this, Ethan let out a small chuckle and strode toward Moon Glade and Sun Garden. Discovered a 9-Tier special unit, Moon Doe, at the wild recruitment Creature Dwelling: Moon Glade. Would you like to occupy it? Ding! Warning: This Creature Dwelling is outside your castle’s dominion and cannot be permanently occupied! Temporary occupation duration: 3 months. Discovered a 10-Tier special unit, Sun Deer, at the wild recruitment Creature Dwelling: Sun Garden. Would you like to occupy it? Ding! Warning: This Creature Dwelling is outside your castle’s dominion and cannot be permanently occupied! Temporary occupation duration: 3 months. ... Clearly, Crescent Ravine was quite a distance from Emerald Castle. And with Emerald Castle still only a Level 1 castle, its dominion range was limited! As a result, these two wild Creature Dwellings could only be occupied temporarily—not permanently! But that wasn’t really a problem. Since they could already take down these Creature Dwellings without a scratch, three months from now, it would be even easier! "Occupy." Ethan nodded slowly and made his choice. In an instant, Moon Glade and Sun Garden transformed into Emerald Castle’s new wild recruitment sites! Congratulations, player ’Valkarion,’ on successfully occupying... ... Ding! Ding! Ding! A flood of system notifications rang in Ethan’s ears again. But this time, it was all gold, resources, and alliance reputation rewards—no special bonuses like unit heroes. Then again, that wasn’t surprising. The battle to take these Creature Dwellings had been way too easy. Plus, with all of Ethan’s previous impressive achievements, the system had likely raised the bar for special rewards significantly... But that didn’t matter. What Ethan truly cared about were the war talent skills that the Moon Doe and Sun Deer possessed. Everything else? Just icing on the cake—nice to have, but not essential. At the same time, the building details for Moon Glade and Sun Garden appeared before him. [Moon Glade] Wild Creature Dwelling. Current number of Moon Glade dwellings owned: 1 Recruitable 9-Tier Moon Doe every three months: 6-5 (First recruitment grants +1 bonus) Recruitment cost: 300,000 gold, 5 crystals, 5 gems [Sun Garden] Wild Creature Dwelling. Current number of Sun Garden dwellings owned: 1 Recruitable 10-Tier Sun Deer every three months: 4-3 (First recruitment grants +1 bonus) Recruitment cost: 800,000 gold, 5 crystals, 5 gems "That expensive?!" Ethan’s face changed the moment he saw the recruitment costs—he was completely dumbfounded. He knew that special hidden units were always pricier than regular ones of the same Tier, but 300,000 gold? 800,000 gold?! Those prices were insane! "Damn it... Well, I guess it makes sense. You get what you pay for." Shaking his head with a wry smile, Ethan tried to console himself with some basic logic. After deducting the cost of recruiting his third 11-Tier unicorn earlier, he had about 2 million gold left, along with various other resources. That was just enough to recruit six 9-Tier Moon Doe! As for the four 10-Tier Sun Deer, which would cost a whopping 3.2 million gold... yeah, that was out of the question for now. "Broke again... I’m broke again!" Ethan groaned in frustration, clenching his fist as he muttered to himself. "Once I finish the S-rank castle quest in Suffocating Swamp Forest, I have to figure out a way to take over that massive gold mine in Verdant Ravine..." A massive gold mine was the second-largest source of gold income, right after gigantic gold mines. Every seven days, a massive gold mine could generate 100,000 gold. If he could successfully capture it, Emerald Castle’s financial pressure would ease up significantly! "Let’s recruit six Tier 9 Moon Does first." The next moment, Ethan made his choice, summoning all six Moon Does from Moon Glade. Then, bathed in soft, silvery moonlight, six ethereal creatures—graceful as night elves—appeared before Ethan, kneeling in silent reverence. "Support and logistics, a special hidden unit... I hope you won’t disappoint me." Ethan murmured as he gently stroked the forehead of the nearest Moon Doe. After a brief pause, he stored them away. "Master, are we heading to the Suffocating Swamp Forest now?" Elynn asked. "Tomorrow." Ethan shook his head, his gaze flickering with determination. "By tomorrow, Seraphina will be fully recovered from her weakened state. This trip to the Suffocating Swamp Forest will be the greatest trial and challenge we’ve faced since establishing Emerald Castle. We can’t afford to let our guard down—we have to give it everything we’ve got." He paused for a moment before shaking his head again. "Alright, everyone, get some rest. Take the day to recover and prepare for tomorrow’s battle." "Roar! Roar! Roar!" "Yes, Master!" ... Roar! Roar! Roar! At dawn the next day, the moment her weakened state ended, Seraphina’s excited dragon roar echoed fiercely across the skies of Emerald Castle. Clearly, for her, injuries and periods of weakness were nothing more than minor inconveniences. What truly mattered— Was growing stronger. Awakening new abilities. That was what was truly meaningful. That was what made her happy. Because the stronger she became, the more she could support Ethan. The more she could help him. And that—above all else—was her greatest pride, her unwavering belief in victory. To Seraphina, Ethan was everything. He was her sky, her world. As long as she could help him, she was willing to give everything. Whoosh! At that moment, a flash of white light signaled Ethan’s return to Emerald Castle. Roar! Roar! Roar! The instant she saw him, Seraphina’s excitement exploded. She let out a series of thrilled cries, twisting her massive body midair before diving straight into the swirling winds. As she descended, her enormous form rapidly shrank—until, finally, she transformed into an adorable little dragon. And then—bam!—she crashed right into Ethan’s arms. Nearly knocking him over. "You little troublemaker..." Ethan sighed, rubbing Seraphina’s forehead with a mix of exasperation and fondness. She immediately burst into giggles, nuzzling against his chest affectionately. A trace of warmth flickered in Ethan’s eyes. "Alright, let’s see how you’re doing now." He held the squirming little dragon still and began checking her status. "As expected, the system rating has leveled up!" Ethan’s pupils contracted slightly as he murmured in surprise and delight. [Seraphina Drahmoulis] Gender: Female Level: 14 (Max level: 90. Each level grants 3 attribute points, which can be allocated to the four primary attributes. Below level 15, she is still in her juvenile phase, with only one-third of her adult stats. No attribute points are gained during juvenile-level upgrades.) Race: Green Dragon Tier: Crimson Ultimate Hero Class: Green Dragon Warrior Hero Skills: Armorer (Level 1) Offense (Level 1) Resistance (Level 1) Hero Talents: Venomous Dragon Breath (Her Green Dragon breath evolves into a venomous attack, covering a wide area with devastating damage.) Green Dragon Commander (Boosts the base attack and defense of all Tier 13 Green Dragon units under her command. Starts at +3% and increases with her level, maxing out at +33%.) Forest King (All Forest faction units under her leadership gain +3 to attack and defense, but only applies to units below Tier 13.) Magic Immunity (Immune to all Tier 1-3 spells; Tier 4 spells have reduced effectiveness by 50%.) Rampage of the Green Dragon (Can enter a berserk state for a short duration, doubling attack power but halving defense. Lasts for one minute and may have potential side effects.) Overall Rating: C-rank Crimson Ultimate Hero! Previously, Seraphina had been rated as a D-rank Crimson Ultimate Hero, but now, she had advanced to C-rank, putting her on par with Cicero’s system evaluation! She had climbed an entire sub-rank! This was an achievement beyond measure—something that couldn’t be bought with any amount of gold! Why? Simple. Reaching the peak is hard, but going beyond it is even harder. And this—was insanely difficult. Almost impossible. It was like trying to ascend to the heavens. After all, even the lowest-tier Crimson Ultimate Heroes were already considered the pinnacle of power in Glory Lords X. Beyond that, the only distinctions left were Warlord Heroes and Mythic Heroes. In other words, this was the Path to Godhood. Becoming a god-like existence—how difficult was that? There was no need to explain. Everyone knew the answer. It was common sense. That was why every step forward on this path, every bit of progress, was invaluable. This kind of advancement was worth more than 100, even 1,000 Tier 11 units combined! Sounds exaggerated? No. Absolutely not. Because unless you’ve witnessed the power of a true god-like being, you have no idea just how terrifying they really are.
