Lord-level beasts are very rare. Today is already the fourth day, and Nan Feng is the only one in the entire area who has killed a level 2 lord-level beast, the Dart Bee Queen.
Killing lord-level beasts grants bonus attribute points, which makes Nan Feng very excited.
So, as soon as You Ran mentioned a lord-level beast, Nan Feng immediately became restless.
You Ran: "The coordinates are 410:483. I'll wait for you here."
Nan Feng took one look at the coordinates. Good heavens, it's so close to the cabin?
It's less than a 20-minute walk.
He quickly devoured the last few bites of grilled meat, grabbed 20 mana potions, and headed out.
"Let me see, I should head southeast... which is exactly the opposite direction of the mine."
Nan Feng equipped his wooden dagger and strode off.
But as he walked, he suddenly realized something was off—this direction looked familiar.
Wasn't this the direction he had discovered the Jungle Treant yesterday?
Could the lord-level beast You Ran mentioned be that three- or four-meter-thick treant?!
Nan Feng had a vivid memory of the Jungle Treant.
It was hard to forget a beast that was just a bunch of question marks.
"No, the Eye of Insight can check the attributes of beasts within level 3, so the Jungle Treant must be at least level 6..."
"The lord-level beast You Ran found is level 5, so it definitely isn't the Jungle Treant."
Realizing this, Nan Feng breathed a sigh of relief and continued onward.
When passing through the area where the Jungle Treant was, Nan Feng cautiously made a wide detour to avoid being ambushed by the treant.
That thing's vines were fifty or sixty meters long; it was easy to get caught off guard.
After bypassing the area, the view in front of Nan Feng suddenly opened up.
The towering trees became fewer, and there were many more layers of small hills.
Continuing to advance in the direction of the coordinates, Nan Feng found that the number of low-level beasts around him began to increase.
In addition to common beasts like Ironclaw Rats and Red-Eyed Rabbits, there were also some plant-type beasts that Nan Feng had never seen before.
One of them, a pea shooter that spat seeds, left Nan Feng speechless.
"How is there a pea shooter here?"
"Is this a Plants vs. Zombies thing?"
Against level 5 Nan Feng, these level 2 or 3 beasts were utterly defenseless.
After easily taking care of them, Nan Feng arrived at a valley.
On the rocks beside the valley, You Ran, wearing a long robe, smiled at Nan Feng: "You came pretty quickly."
The corners of You Ran's mouth turned up, and her eyes curved into crescents, even her eyes were smiling.
Girls who smile a lot have good luck...
Nan Feng sized up You Ran, noting that she had an excellent figure, a slim waist, long legs, fair skin, and a beautiful face; she was a charming little enchantress.
"LSP, why are you staring at me like that?" You Ran rolled her eyes at Nan Feng.
"Looking once is instinct, looking twice is being an LSP," Nan Feng said righteously. "I didn't blink just now, so it's instinct."
You Ran covered her mouth and giggled twice: "Alright, let's get down to business."
Right, business...
Nan Feng carefully observed his surroundings, making sure there was no danger, before slowly walking towards You Ran.
He couldn't help it; one could never be too careful.
What if this You Ran was a bad person who wanted to steal Nan Feng's kidney?
Losing a kidney would cut Nan Feng's future happiness index in half; he had to be cautious.
"Okay, this distance is fine."
Seeing Nan Feng slowly approaching, You Ran was also very cautious and maintained a certain distance from Nan Feng.
There wasn't much trust between the two of them.
"So sad, you don't trust me at all..." Nan Feng lamented, "I'm your good gege."
You Ran ignored Nan Feng's pretense and got down to business: "Deep in this valley, there's a pack of Bloodthirsty Wolves, about 40 of them, all level 5 beasts. There's also a Bloodthirsty Wolf Leader, which is a lord-level beast."
Nan Feng was shocked: "That many? I can't handle that."
If there was only one lord-level beast, Nan Feng could try to kite it to death.
But with 40 level 5 Bloodthirsty Wolves on top of that, Nan Feng couldn't win.
You Ran waved her hand, signaling Nan Feng to wait: "There's also some Illusion Grass in this valley. Eating it will increase your Spirit by 10 points."
"This Illusion Grass is about to mature, so the Bloodthirsty Wolf Leader has been guarding it, with no intention of leaving."
"This creates an opportunity for us. We can kill the Bloodthirsty Wolves first, then deal with the Bloodthirsty Wolf Leader."
Nan Feng nodded.
If the Bloodthirsty Wolf Leader didn't make a move, Nan Feng was confident he could handle the remaining Bloodthirsty Wolves—unless they ganged up on him without any sense of fair play.
After a brief explanation of the situation, You Ran turned to look at Nan Feng. "The kill reward for this Lord goes to you, but I want the Illusion Grass. How about it?"
Nan Feng: "Sounds fair."
Last time Nan Feng killed the Level 2 Lord Dart Bee Queen, he received a reward of Reputation +1 and Stamina +4.
This Bloodthirsty Wolf Leader was a Level 5 ferocious beast, so the reward would definitely be higher, and he might even get a Strength reward.
For Nan Feng, the kill reward was definitely better than the 10 points of Energy provided by the Illusion Grass.
Seeing Nan Feng agree, You Ran smiled slightly. "Alright, follow me. I know a good spot."
You Ran led Nan Feng to a protruding rock wall. They used both their hands and feet and put in a lot of effort to climb up.
From this angle, they could clearly see the Bloodthirsty Wolf pack in the distance.
You Ran said with a grin, "We have a 90-degree rock wall below us. The Bloodthirsty Wolves can't climb up."
Nan Feng looked and saw that it was indeed the case.
This small hillside was easy to defend and difficult to attack. The Bloodthirsty Wolves simply couldn't get up and could only be beaten from below.
Nan Feng sighed. "This is a tower defense game..."
And Nan Feng and You Ran were the two defense towers.
Beside him, You Ran took out a wooden magic wand, with vines wrapped around it. These vines seemed to grow out of the wand.
"I can cast fireballs to lure the Bloodthirsty Wolves over."
How envious, she actually has Fireball... My dream since I was little was to be a mage.
As she spoke, You Ran looked at the wooden dagger in Nan Feng's hand. "What about you? Aren't you going to take out your pistol?"
Nan Feng was stunned and laughed awkwardly. "Hehe, you believe Sakura Kojiro's nonsense too?"
You Ran looked at Nan Feng with a smile, a hint of cunning flashing in her eyes. "Then all the experience from these Bloodthirsty Wolves will be mine?"
As she spoke, a fireball condensed on You Ran's magic wand, drawing a perfect parabola in the air before smashing into a snoring Bloodthirsty Wolf not far away.
So accurate!
"Awoo!"
The Bloodthirsty Wolf, hurt, got up and began to howl.
Soon, more than forty Bloodthirsty Wolves discovered Nan Feng and You Ran, roaring as they charged over.
"Roar!"
The wolf pack had only run a few steps when the Bloodthirsty Wolf Leader roared. Immediately, half of the Bloodthirsty Wolves stopped and returned to the leader's side, guarding the Illusion Grass as it matured.
Nan Feng raised an eyebrow. "Oh? Is this leader afraid we're trying to lure it away from the mountain?"
You Ran nodded. "Its intelligence isn't low. Be careful when dealing with it."
Swish.
You Ran waved her magic wand again, and another fireball flew out, hitting a Bloodthirsty Wolf.
Nan Feng felt a little itchy watching.
This was effortless monster farming!
A Level 5 Bloodthirsty Wolf could give Nan Feng 50 experience points, which was much higher than the Cave Spider.
Should I take out the Desert Eagle, then kill You Ran to monopolize this wave of experience?... Nan Feng had an evil thought, but he quickly dismissed it.
Nan Feng couldn't do something so immoral.
Beep beep beep.
While he was hesitating, Nan Feng suddenly received a private message.
He opened it casually and was immediately shocked. "Holy crap!"
"What's wrong?" You Ran was startled by Nan Feng.
Nan Feng's expression was grave as he looked at the private message.
This private message was sent by Su Ziran.
The content was short, but the amount of information was enormous.
Su Ziran: "Sakura One-Sword is preparing to challenge our District 527!"
