Alicia, on the side, watched this scene, her eyes already turned red. 

She too began to desire Ethan’s conquest, her body involuntarily twisting.

“Mm… ah…”

Alicia’s voice grew louder and louder, to the point of madness.

Alicia writhed manically, trying to get closer to Ethan. 

She grabbed Ethan’s hand, placing it between her legs, rubbing it as a shiny liquid trickled down her thighs.

“Hahaha, that’s my good girl. Wait till I properly train you, then you’ll know what true pleasure is.”

Seeing this, Ethan burst into laughter. 

He hugged Alicia tightly, pushing her onto the ground, and with a forceful thrust, began to recklessly plunge inside her.

“Ah!”

Alicia screamed, her body violently shaking.

“What a naughty girl!”

Ethan, reveling in Alicia’s response, couldn’t help but let out a sound of approval. 

He harshly spanked her rear, seeking a high-frequency jiggle from her, which he knew would bring him immense satisfaction.

“Slap!” Ethan administered a stern slap before giving a firm pat on Alicia’s behind.

“Ahhh!” Alicia gasped, her body involuntarily trembling.

“I wonder how many waves of attack you ladies can withstand…” 

Ethan’s lips curled into a devilishly charming smirk.

“Please… slow down…” 

Alicia pleaded, but her pleas fell on Ethan’s deaf ears as he continued his forceful movements.

“Ahh!” 

Unable to bear it, Alicia let out a long, sensuous moan.

Upon hearing Alicia’s moan, Ethan’s expression became one of deep pleasure. 

His hand moved towards Lilith’s chest, kneading her breasts with vigor.

“Ahh!” 

Lilith, in turn, moaned and eagerly sucked Ethan’s fingers.

“Ahh!!” 

Lilith screamed, her legs intertwining tightly as she felt a wave of pleasure overtaking her.

“Mmm… I want it too,” Lilith said, her eyes misty, flashing a desperate plea.

Ignoring her pleas, Ethan’s hands roamed Lilith’s body while his legs pounded against Alicia’s most sensitive spot.

“Ahh!” Alicia’s eyes widened as her body began to convulse violently.

“The night is still young, don’t rush. We have plenty of time to enjoy.” 

Ethan licked his lips, looking at the three beauties before him and commencing another round of conquest.

…

[Ding! NPC Eluna, loyalty has increased to 60%.]

[Ding! NPC Lilith, loyalty has increased to 60%.]

[Ding! NPC Alicia, loyalty has increased to 60%.]

The three female Treants collapsed on the ground, utterly spent. 

Just as Ethan finished dressing, he heard the system’s prompt in his ear.

“Their loyalty even increased… The Treant really is a fascinating race.”

Exiting the underground cave, Zachary Barnes quickly reported to Ethan with respect, “Lord Ethan, all the resources from the Treant village have been tallied. Here’s the inventory.”

Ethan looked over the list.  𝒪𝐯𝔩xt.𝚌𝑶𝓂

Even though he was prepared, the figures on the list still took him aback.

8,000 units of food, 12,000 units of wood, 7,000 iron, 1,500 crystals, 4,500 energy powders, and 18,000 gold coins. 

The accumulated wealth of a village that housed hundreds of heroes was not to be underestimated.

Ethan couldn’t help licking his lips. 

Farming heroes seemed far more profitable than engaging in Dark Lord infighting. 

After all, these heroes didn’t have to spend resources on troops like the Dark Lords, most of whom were struggling just to make ends meet.

In addition to these resources, Zachary Barnes offered a map, pointing to a marked red dot and said, “My Lord, you should be very interested in this location.”

“This is the Blackstone Mountain, an extinct volcanic range and the location of the Blackstone Dwarf Kingdom. It’s home to a group of dwarves known for their blacksmithing skills. Once a month, a caravan of dwarven traders would pass by here. Dwarven weapons are renowned for their superior quality, and they also mine a variety of ores…”

“The most famous of all is the legendary Dwarf Treasury, rumoured to be filled to the brim with treasures.”

[Ding! A hidden mission has been activated: Become the ruler of the Blackstone Dwarf Kingdom. Reward: SS-level treasure chest x1.]

Ethan raised an eyebrow at the sudden triggering of a hidden mission. 

An unexpected surprise, and although it seemed simpler than the mission of the Sunset Empire, the SS-level difficulty was far beyond his current strength.

He’d have to continue developing silently, accumulating power.

His priority is to address the biggest threat he currently faces, Riverside. 

As a main city of the Hero faction, he didn’t have the strength to directly confront them until reaching an A-level power. 

As the saying goes, even ants can bite an elephant to death in large enough numbers.

However, some things could be prepared in advance.

“I got it. You can rest now. I am satisfied with your performance today. Here is your reward.”

After giving Zachary Barnes 500 gold coins as a reward, Ethan waved for him to leave.

“Yes, My Lord.” 

Taking the gold coins, Zachary bowed and withdrew.

[Ding! Hero Zachary Barnes, loyalty has increased to 80%.]

…

The next day, after the three Treant women finished washing, Ethan summoned them again next to the Fountain of Life. 

The three women, wearing silk gauze dresses, had a touch of mature charm compared to the previous day, which was even more irresistible.

However, Ethan was not in the mood for teasing them at the moment.

After looking them over, he got straight to the point. 

“I want the future Treants born from this Fountain of Life to be mine. Do you have any suggestions or ideas?”

The three female Treants looked at each other without a word. 

Lilith looked somewhat hesitant, and only Alicia, after a brief struggle, spoke in a low voice. 

“Actually, there is a way…”

“Alicia!” Eluna frowned at Alicia. 

Although what happened yesterday had broken her bottom line again and again, she still did not want to betray her race at heart, which could be considered her last dignity.

Alicia didn’t mind Eluna’s reproach and continued, “The essence blood of a Dark Lord can strengthen monsters, and the same applies to these Treants.”

“My lord, you just need to inject enough essence blood into the Fountain of Life. The life seeds inside will be infused with your aura. Once they grow up, they will become Treants that will be forever loyal to you.”

Alicia has a clear understanding of her role. 

After the wild night… the unapproachable image of Elder Eluna in her heart had completely shattered…

Now, Elder Eluna, in terms of status, was no different from her.

Alicia didn’t want to be just a tool for a Dark Lord to vent his desires; she wanted to prove her worth.

“You’re doing a good job.”

Ethan was very pleased with Alicia’s performance. 

As for the other two Treants, there was plenty of time, and Ethan was not in a hurry.

He cut his wrist and stood before the Fountain of Life, dripping his essence blood into it to merge.

After nearly a hundred drops of essence blood had been dripped in, a system prompt sounded in his ear:

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for unlocking the new building, the Corrupted Fountain of Life!]

[Corrupted Fountain of Life]: Every 30 natural days, ten Dragon Blood Treant warriors will hatch from the Corrupted Fountain of Life. They will be absolutely loyal to the host, and due to the dragon blood infection, the Treant warriors will exhibit some powerful mutated traits.

Ethan pulled up the property panel of the Dragon Blood Treant Warrior for inspection.

[Name: Dragon Blood Treant Warrior]

[Intelligence: Adult male]

[Strength: D+ level]

[Special abilities: Bloodline Suppression (can be used in combat, forcibly causing dragons with lower bloodline density to lose the will to resist for three seconds), Photosynthesis (attributes increase by 100% when fighting in sunlight), Dragon Blood Protection (Treant warriors will no longer fear the night, and their attributes will not be weakened in night combat)]

[Enhancement direction: Dragon Blood Treant Guard, Divine Dragon Barrier Tree, Dragon Blood Treant Mage]

[Dragon Blood Impregnation: Treant warriors can root in the ground, creating a dragon territory. All dragon attribute creatures within this range will receive life recovery, attack power, and defense power boosts.]

“What powerful attributes these Dragon Blood Treant Warriors have. When it comes to large-scale battles, they must have the highest value.”

Satisfied, Ethan’s gaze towards Alicia became even more approving. 

He beckoned her over, and Alicia hurriedly moved closer. 

They started kissing as if no one else was around.

After a passionate encounter, Alicia, her eyes hazy, looked at Ethan and said, pleadingly, “Master, I want to…”

Ethan patted her face, chuckling, “We have all night to enjoy ourselves. But for now, I think someone else can satisfy you.”

He pointed to Eluna and Lilith nearby, telling Alicia, “They are your slaves today. You can make them do whatever you want.”

Alicia was stunned at first, then she turned to look at Eluna. 

It was as if something had unlocked in her heart…

Slowly, she walked over to Eluna and commanded, “Eluna, kneel down and lick my feet clean.”
