Chapter 211
[Obtained: 742 Dark Steel]
[Received: Food*3152]
This gnoll camp is very lucrative.
Four Greater Soul Stone, three upgrade materials, and one Boss One Star Soul!
This also means that three more Transcendent Rank powerhouses can be added to the territory.
Shen Xing excitedly transferred the three advancement materials to the real world and then placed an order for door-to-door pickup.
The next day.
Before Shen Xing even got out of bed, her phone received an exciting message.
[Hello Mr. Shen Xing, the advanced materials you consigned have been successfully matched: 'Bloodstained Wolf Fang'*2, 'Torn Bat Wing'*1...]
"Is this the matching speed for Platinum Member? It's incredibly efficient; they matched me up in just one night."
Shen Xing said with a sigh.
Of course, it's also possible that the recent surge in player numbers has led to an increase in the availability of advanced materials, thus speeding up matchmaking.
But in any case, this is a good thing for him.
"Ding-dong!"
Half an hour later, the pleasant doorbell rang in my ears.
The deliveryman brought him the advanced materials.
After Shen Xing signed for the package, he couldn't wait to return to the living room and teleport all three materials into the Land of Mist.
"Buzz..."
The darkness dissipated, and flames burst forth.
[Your territory building: The Great Bonfire has been upgraded to level 4, its lighting range has been increased, and the 'Embers of the Long Night' effect has been enhanced.]
Shen Xing opened his eyes and looked at the Great Bonfire burning in front of him, with flames leaping up to four or five meters high.
"The level 4 Great Bonfire's illumination range has reached a diameter of 800 meters, and the acceleration effect of the Embers of the Long Night has also reached 40%..."
According to the forum posts, level 5 is the maximum level.
"In that case, let's just max it out."
With that in mind, Shen Xing opened the building interface and began the upgrade process.
[Insufficient materials, upgrade failed...]
"Uh... the upgrade failed?"
Shen Xing paused for a moment, glanced at the detailed list of materials, and then nodded in realization.
Upgrading the Great Bonfire from level 4 to level 5 requires 5,000 Soul Stone, 5,000 silver coins, and a full 5 pieces of Black Spirit Wood.
The other materials were manageable, but he really couldn't produce five pieces of Black Spirit Wood all at once.
"Looks like we'll have to wait a bit longer."
Shen Xing shook his head regretfully, temporarily abandoning the idea of upgrading the Great Bonfire to the maximum level.
Then it summoned two level 9 werewolves, and a level 100 Dretch.
Grant the Boss One Star Soul to one of the Dretch, and then use [Life-Sacrifice Evolution] to simultaneously upgrade the werewolf to Boss One Star ★.
A red beam of light descended from the top of the sky, enveloping the werewolf.
In the light, a humanoid figure could be vaguely seen rapidly growing taller, twisting, and sprouting a wolf's head covered in fur and sharp claws.
Beside it, a small figure absorbed the Boss One Star Soul, slowly spreading its bat wings, the edges of which glowed with a ghostly green, corrosive fire.
Immediately afterwards, two more notifications appeared.
[Ding! Your territory's unit: Werewolf has successfully advanced to Boss One Star ★!]
[This evolution: All attributes +30%, Agility +100]
[Occupation: Werewolf → Midnight Wolf]
[Activate Skill: Moonlit Frenzy (At night or in dark environments, speed is increased by 40%, and the first attack is guaranteed to be a critical hit)]
[Ding! Your territory's troop type: Dretch has successfully advanced to Boss One Star ★]
[Class: Dretch → Fire Dretch]
[This evolution: All attributes +30%]
[Activate Skill: Corrosive Flames (Passive, when an attack hits an enemy, it will apply a stack of 'Fire of Corrosion', which continuously burns the target and reduces their armor for 10 seconds, and can stack up to 5 times)]
Fel Infusion (Infuses hellish energy into another hellish creature, doubling the damage of its next attack)
At that moment, two figures slowly approached the wheelchair.
On the left is a half-human, half-wolf creature, its massive body covered in silver-gray mane, its wolf claws gleaming coldly.
The bat's right wing fluttered slightly, and a wisp of eerie green flame occasionally burst forth from its small body.
They knelt on one knee, gazing at the man before them, their eyes shining with loyalty.
"That's right, from this day forward, you will be called Wu Dalang and the San Mo."
Shen Xing, leaning against his wheelchair, had already chosen names for them.
The wolf and the demon exchanged a glance, then nodded solemnly. "Thank you for bestowing a name upon us, Lord!"
Shen Xing waved his hand, took out three pieces of advancement materials, and handed them to them to absorb on their own.
Then, they returned to the center of their territory and began absorbing the Soul Stone.
About half an hour later, three powerful auras soared into the sky, accompanied by loud wolf howls.
In this way, the territory now has 14 Transcendent Rank powerhouses.
It can be said that Shen Xing's territory strength is increasing rapidly every day.
"At this rate, if we develop for another two or three days, we should be able to return to the Dragon Tomb and try to complete that hidden quest."
Thinking of this, a sense of anticipation rose in his heart.
Next, Shen Xing continued to calm down and slowly absorb the Soul Stone.
A whole day passed, and with a flash of white light, Lord Shen leveled up to level 12.
The levels of members in other territories also increased slightly.
Day three.
Today is the fifth day since the Rain God Illusory Realm Challenge ended.
Upon landing in the Land of Mist, Shen Xing received some exciting news!
Someone in the territory has finally reached level 16!
But.
It's not Hellscream.
It was Leina.
I'm so impressed, this woman is a complete freak.
Although she broke through to the Tier Two later than Hellscream and didn't absorb Soul Stone for as long, she leveled up faster than Hellscream.
However, considering her impressive aptitude of 71 points, it's not surprising.
"Leina, come, drink this essence."
Shen Xing opened his right hand, and three drops of pure [Rain and Dew Pearl] slowly rolled in his palm.
"Yes, my lord."
Without the slightest hesitation, the stunningly beautiful red figure stepped forward, gently cupped the dewdrop in his hand, and placed it to her lips.
The glistening water droplets slid down the soft tip of her tongue into her mouth and disappeared in an instant.
For the first few seconds, nothing seemed to change.
And then, in the very next moment...
Call--
A scorching heat rose from her slender body, like a pressure cooker that had been accumulating heat for a long time being opened, bursting out bursts of white steam.
The robes fluttered in the heat, the flame patterns on the hem becoming increasingly vibrant, and the aura emanating from the person rose steadily.
[Your territory hero, Leina Yenet, has reached level 17!]
[Attribute boosts from this upgrade: Strength +43, Spirit +68, Agility +42, Constitution +38]
[Your territory hero, Leina Yenet, has reached level 18!]
[Your...]
Three flashes of white light appeared in succession.
As the heat dissipated, a tall, slender figure slowly stepped out.
Her graceful figure displayed perfect curves, her beautiful face held a determined expression, and her full head of red hair danced in the wind.
Bright and vibrant like fire, dazzling in its splendor.
Leina Yenet, a peak junior high student on the verge of becoming a high school level expert, has arrived!
Shen Xing felt satisfied as he sensed the intense fiery power emanating from her.
"Leina, get ready, I'm about to let you evolve again."
The red-haired mage's eyes flickered; she knew that the Metamorphosis from Boss One Star to Boss was an extremely important one.
"My lord, I am ready to accept everything from you. Please grant it all to me," Leina said firmly.
Shen Xing: "..."
Something about this sentence feels a little off.
But never mind, breaking through to the Boss is the priority.
He opened the talent interface and selected the target in front of him.
[Use Life-Sacrifice Evolution to raise the potential of Territory Hero: Leina Yenet to Boss ★]
