Outside the South City Wall, monster cadavers, bisected at the waist or pierced by arrows, lay strewn across the ground, numbering in the hundreds.
Lu Liu pulled out the Fearless Spear and Shield from within the massive creature tens of meters in height and frowned as he surveyed his surroundings.
Although the invading monsters departed peacefully without a single one escaping, some farmlands and Arrow Towers had been damaged. The once pristine outskirts of the city, cleaned and cleared by him, were once again in disarray due to the monsters’ intrusion.
The straight southern dirt road bore paw prints from the monsters’ trampling; the terrain around was pitted, sprinkled with the fire and acid spat out by the monsters; farther away, monsters howled from a distance that grew ever closer…
Looking at the pockmarked earth, Lu Liu wished he could grab a shovel and rolling stone right there and then to smooth out the damaged ground.
But he couldn’t; there was no time.
More monsters were attacking.
The task given to him by Lord was this, not only did he have to obliterate every monster in sight, not letting a single one escape, but he also had to keep the noise down to avoid causing any thunderous commotions.
Lu Liu could not stand the pitted ground, but obviously, the Lord’s mission took precedence. He charged forward, grabbed a few powerful monsters, and struck them with a Thrust, piercing and slaying them.
Mu Yuan walked out from the South City Gate, staring at the monster corpses scattered on the ground, and his brow furrowed.
As expected, the types of monsters were still those common in the Eternal World, including but not limited to Goblins, Jackal Men, Kobolds, and others.
But they were different from the monsters he had seen before.
Mu Yuan crouched down and peeled back the fur of a large wolf. The stench of blood hit him and he said while staring at the bloody wolf skeleton, “This is a Professional Level Peak large wolf.”
“Ah?”
There was silence for a while, and Duo Lai uttered confusion.
So what?
Is there a problem with that?
Xi Liu elbowed Duo Lai, “Out in the wild, large wolves are just low-tier monsters, and it’s rare for them to grow to Professional Level Peak.”
Such common Three-star Stage creatures could potentially develop to Professional Level Peak in the hands of a player, but that would only be if an old player scrimped and saved to raise and nurture the large wolf, feeding it precious Breakthrough Material.
But wild monsters…
The large wolves they had encountered before were basically Apprentice level, and most times not even at the peak of Apprentice level. Here, more than a dozen wolves had reached Professional level.
“I see now—” Duo Lai realized suddenly.
No wonder Lord was able to spot the essence immediately, gobble!
The levels of the Goblins had also generally increased significantly. Even the ordinary one-star Goblins, naturally hunchbacked and thin, showed muscle contours in Mu Yuan’s observation.
He then took out an illuminating tool and shone it into the peacefully open pupils of the Goblins, and sure enough, their eyes were full of bloodshot veins, spiderwebbing throughout the entire eyeball.
“Leave the task of researching the differences between these monsters and the previous ones to me,” said Isloa, coming over in one of her incarnations. She looked at them briefly and spoke with full commitment (strike that), enthusiasm, “I’ll dissect them thoroughly, mining out all their secrets.”
She licked her reddish lips.
“Then, I’ll leave this side to you.”
Lord Shepherd said to Lu Liu and Isloa.
Following that, he put together the Exploration Pioneer Team. Naturally, Dead Bone was the team’s main force, along with core team members Duo Lai, Xi Liu, Hong Yi, and Sario.
Duo Lai mainly took on the responsibilities of the Transport Squadron Leader.
Xi Liu had both Dragon Might and Hunter’s Instinct. Sometimes, her instinct was the best tracking radar or disaster avoidance radar.
Otherwise, before coming to the Tianyuan Territory, when Xi Liu was just a lone ranger at Second-order Elite level, how could she have survived so easily in the wilderness?
Sario had the abilities of Ice and Dragon Might. Dragon Might could not only suppress and kill enemies but also do so without making much noise, which was considered a divine technique for bully-ing the weak.
Hong Yi, with her Illusion Ability and Trapping Enemy Ability, served a similar function.
This was a ‘Stealth’ exploration mission.
He was grateful that he had previously acquired a general understanding of the Pioneer Group, knowing the kind of enemies and environments the Lords faced, so he could take more cautious measures.
If he had, as before, recklessly attacked and slaughtered Monster Tribes they encountered during their explorations, such an approach could be fatal in a true undeveloped territory.
After all…
…
The Pioneer Team stepped out of the territory, and the environment around them underwent a noticeable change.
The trees were tall, and their roots had a hint of brown-redness, maybe with monsters hiding among the tree canopies and rocks, peering at them.
Mu Yuan extended his hand and black crows flew out from his sleeves.
He himself was on reconnaissance support.
Scouting Falcons weren’t inefficient; through high-altitude overview and shared vision, they could still help the leaders maintain overall control. But in such a perilously unpredictable environment, to send the Scouting Falcons for further exploration… wasn’t impossible, just that it would be somewhat costly in terms of the falcons.
Mu Yuan had already commanded a few higher-level Azure and Tai Qing Birds to cautiously scout around.
But his team was to head south.
At that moment, the setting sun cast a reddish glow across the sky, not magnificent or beautiful, but rather reminiscent of the days when red fog shrouded and clouds of red loomed, chilling the heart.
Under the afterglow of the sunset, the whole forest turned even more crimson, the slivers of red light sneaking through the gaps in the leaves as if rivers of blood were flowing between heaven and earth.
