Chapter 110

I'll grow for another two days and then I'll take them all.

"You've worked hard. Go and rest now. There's freshly baked bread in the territory."

Shen Xing remained calm and continued, "And Hellscream, you've managed it well, sending people to clean the territory every day, it's always spotless."

Hellscream was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "My lord, actually... I didn't send anyone to clean up the territory."

"No one was sent?" Shen Xing wondered, "Why is the territory so clean every day?"

"Actually, I also find it strange."

Hellscream carefully considered his words before speaking in a low voice, "The territory was in chaos during the day, with dust and debris from the orcs' training everywhere."

"But by the next day, all the traces had disappeared."

"Including the grain silo that was attacked by the Hippogryph yesterday; the food was scattered everywhere."

"When I led the orcs inside to tidy up, I found that it had already been organized, with all the food neatly categorized."

Shen Xing frowned slightly, sensing something was amiss. "How long has this been going on?"

Hellscream thought for a moment, "About a week."

Shen Xing remained silent for a moment, then said, "I understand. You guys go and rest first."

"Yes!"

The two then took their leave.

Shen Xing then stayed in the territory for a while longer, absorbing several Soul Stones.

I didn't take off my glasses and quit the game until 11:30 p. m.

He pushed his wheelchair to the window and looked out at the Jiangcheng shrouded in rain.

Then I opened the [Trading Section] and listed my upgraded treasure, [Shattered Eyeball], there.

The demand is naturally for other units' Transcendent Rank upgrade materials, such as: Broken Demon Horn, Giant Wolf Claw, Soul Fire, etc.

After browsing the forum for a while, I drifted off to sleep.

At four in the morning, my phone alarm suddenly went off.

Shen Xing suddenly opened her eyes.

Then, without hesitation, I put on the glasses and logged into the game.

The viewpoint shifted instantly, and the orange-red flames illuminated the entire territory.

He surveyed his surroundings, his eyes sharp as a hawk's, scanning every corner.

I'd like to see who's up to their old tricks on my lord's turf.

However... after inspecting the territory, they found that nothing had changed.

The pile of wheat bran scraps he had deliberately scattered in the southwest corner of his territory remained as messy as ever.

"Could it be that I'm overthinking things?" Shen Xing wondered.

"No, those newly built houses today have been disturbed."

He gazed at the row of spotless wooden houses, a glint in his eyes. "Sure enough, something's in my territory."

Shen Xing became interested and decided to find this thing.

At this moment, a red dot suddenly flashed in the upper left corner of the minimap.

During his daytime patrol, the Eye of True Seeing he secretly placed on the outskirts of the territory spotted the target!

Shen Xing instantly activated [Hope's Plume], and his entire body soared into the air.

Dozens of meters in the air, he used his excellent visibility to spot a dark figure.

The dark figure was crawling forward in a very strange way at the edge of the territory.

Seemingly realizing they had been exposed, the opponent suddenly increased their speed, rushing towards the thick fog like a phantom.

"Boom!"

A powerful aura rose up at the village entrance.

A green-skinned orc, flapping its enormous bat wings, rushed to the edge of the mist at top speed.

But they were still a step too slow, and the enemy slipped into the fog.

Hellscream was about to light the lantern and rush into the mist to give chase when Shen Xing stopped him.

"Return."

The orc immediately stopped, flapped its wings, and flew towards Shen Xing.

"My lord, this aura is unfamiliar, but its strength is not great," Hellscream asked in a deep voice. "Should I capture it?"

Shen Xing shook his head. "No need, just confirming their presence is enough."

He could tell that this unknown creature harbored no ill will towards him or the territory.

Otherwise, they would have already taken action a few days ago.

But... why does the other party like to come to my territory and clean up for me? That's a bit puzzling.

Could it be... some kind of twisted sense of humor?

After thinking for a moment, Shen Xing stopped dwelling on the matter and turned to say, "Alright, go back to rest. Don't worry about it too much."

Hellscream, though somewhat puzzled, nodded nonetheless. "As you command."

He returned to the boulder, sat cross-legged, and absorbed the Soul Stone.

Shen Xing also took off her glasses and went back to sleep.

The night was deep and dark.

The territory was quiet, except for the occasional deafening snores of the orcs.

On the eve of dawn, Hellscream heard a faint sound of water breaking from the south of his territory.

He felt a restlessness in his heart and couldn't help but want to go and investigate.

But remembering the lord's instructions, he calmed down again.

The next day, which was also the twenty-first day that Shen Xing had been in the game.

After logging back into the game.

He immediately sought out Hellscream, preparing to use [Life-Sacrifice Evolution] to help it Metamorphosis once more.

After all, this orc was already Boss Three Stars leader.

The next level up is the legendary Leader Rank.

This is also a significant Metamorphosis, several times more important than the transition from Elite to Boss One Star, and its difficulty naturally increases exponentially.

Only the Boss of a Boss or the leader of an army deserves the title of "leader".

According to strategy guides on the forum, these high-potential units possess extremely strong learning abilities and unique Leader Rank skills.

These Leader Rank skills are even comparable to hero-specific skills, possessing the ability to turn the tide of battle.

More importantly, the Boss also possesses independent battlefield command capabilities.

There's a saying, "It's easy to find a thousand soldiers, but hard to find a good general."

Even if those Tier Three expert lords already have Hero Rank units in their territories, they may not be able to cultivate a true Leader Rank unit.

"Let me see if I can promote him directly to the Leader Rank."

Shen Xing activated the [Life-Sacrifice Evolution] talent and used it on Hellscream.

"Buzz..."

With a flash of red light, the familiar notification appeared.

[This unit's level is: Level 11 (Tier Two Transcendent). Its potential has reached its level limit. Forcibly evolving it carries a certain risk of it exploding.]

As expected, just like in the Tier One, it needs to be leveled up to level 19, which is the maximum level of the Tier Two, before it can continue to evolve.

Upon reaching the Tier Two Transcendent, the number of Soul Stone required to advance one level has reached 30, and this number increases with each level.

Fortunately, after breaking through to the Tier Two, his physique improved significantly, and the speed at which he absorbed Soul Stone also increased several times.

Shen Xing muttered to himself, "It's only been three days since Hellscream broke through, and he's already leveled up twice, while also going out to explore. This speed is already quite impressive."

"As expected, we should be able to reach the maximum level of Tier Two in about ten to fifteen days."

"At that time, he can be promoted to Boss."

Although the Hero Altar can revive Hellscream, it's okay if he fails to break through and dies from his explosion.

However, this approach is ultimately too risky.

Furthermore, it's unknown how many materials are needed to revive a Tier Two Transcendent.

Just to be on the safe side, Shen Xing decided against forcing an upgrade.

Of course, the daily [Life-Sacrifice Evolution] should not be wasted.

After thinking about it, I decided to give this opportunity to Leina.

After all, these are only two Transcendent Rank powerhouses in the territory, so upgrading them is the most cost-effective option.

Shen Xing pushed his wheelchair to the open space in the south of the territory and found Leina practicing her sword.

Chapter 88: Mass Production of Troops, Mass Production of Troops, Asset Statistics!

At this moment, the red-haired mage was wielding a knight's longsword and practicing an unknown sword technique.

The sword spun with her, her red hair blazing like flames.

With a light touch of the toes and a flick of the wrist, the sword was drawn, leaving a scorching afterimage in the air.

As he sheathed his sword and turned around, his robe spun open, and sparks flew out.

I must say, this woman's swordsmanship is quite impressive; she could easily handle Elite monsters of the same level. I underestimated her before.

Unfortunately, her swordsmanship was far inferior to her magical talent.

"Leina," Shen Xing called out to her.

The red-haired woman paused, sheathed her sword, and walked over with steady steps.

Please give your instructions.

Shen Xing waved his hand, said nothing more, and directly opened the talent interface.

"Buzz..."

The familiar red light fell upon her, enveloping her entirely.

When Leina first sensed this unfamiliar power entering her body, she was startled and instinctively assumed a defensive stance.
