Ever since reading the formula’s introduction, Han Xing’s heart was shrouded in a shadow.
The Blood Tide, just by its na, suggests an unimaginable disaster, one that almost led to the extinction of the once-powerful Witch Race.
And these survivors from Blue Star, even those who are currently leveling up the fastest, have only progressed to level seven or eight, not even reaching the First Transformation Professional level.
In other words, they are still the lowest echelon in this world, cannon fodder.
In the face of disaster, everyone will be affected, even Han Xing has no confidence in resisting a disaster of this magnitude.
Han Xing felt a sense of urgency.
He must quickly enhance his strength, at least to have so ans of self-preservation when the Blood Tide erupts!
Han Xing turned his gaze back to the front, where the territory was in a state of disarray, with traces of battle everywhere.
Eight large Spiritual Puppets stood silently.
Han Xing glanced at the ground; Zhang Lianng was still in a deep sleep.
So, he casually made a bed in the territory and then gently picked up Zhang Lianng.
In her sleep, Zhang Lianng was unaware of it all. Han Xing only felt a soft body in his arms, with a unique fragrance wafting to his nose.
After placing Zhang Lianng on the bed to rest, Han Xing said with a strange expression, "This woman is so soft..."
Then, Han Xing stored all eight puppets back in the Storage Space.
The view of the territory once again opened up.
The first thing that caught the eye was a giant crater over twenty ters wide, created by so strange cannon of the monster bird.
Han Xing’s mouth twitched, and he quickly controlled the excess territory to patch up the crater.
Then, he walked to the unrecognizable corpse of the monster bird and angrily kicked it, "Damn it, blasting away more than four hundred square ters of my territory. If my territory wasn’t large enough, I’d really have been screwed over by you today!"
At this mont, Han Xing felt sowhat fortunate that he had built the castle on the core of the territory.
Others wanting to attack his core would first have to break through the castle’s 1000 Defense Value.
And that blast from the monster bird had only knocked off less than 60 Defense Value from the castle.
Looking at the monster bird’s corpse, Han Xing felt a surge of anger.
Suddenly, Han Xing thought, can this monster bird’s corpse be decomposed?
He attempted to click.
The system prompt appeared.
[Decompose the corpse of the monster bird Jiale (One-Star Leader Creature)?]
"It really can!" Han Xing clicked yes.
[Decomposition Successful: Obtained Monster Bird Head*1, Monster Bird Eye*2, Cursed Blood*7.]
[Monster Bird Head]: Quest item. By holding the Monster Bird Head, you can claim a bounty at the Elf Royal Capital.
[Monster Bird Eye]: Special item, seems to be so kind of alchemy array dium.
[Cursed Blood]: Special material containing a trace of cursed aura, it seems it can be used to make so kind of potion.
Han Xing noticed the third item.
In the Blood Curse Antidote Formula he obtained, one of the required materials is indeed Cursed Blood.
Unexpectedly, it could be decomposed from this monster bird.
And this monster bird was linked to the terrifying presence in the cave.
Looking at it this way, his hypothesis might very well be right.
The aura in the cave is likely related to the upcoming Blood Tide!
No wonder the system’s first-kill reward would give him such a potion formula.
After dealing with the monster bird’s corpse, Han Xing was ready to tidy up the ssy territory.
Just then, Little Coal Ball suddenly jumped to Han Xing’s side.
Han Xing asked in confusion, "What’s wrong, Coal Ball?"
Coal Ball scratched Han Xing’s boots, then flashed and appeared near the castle.
Following its movent, Han Xing saw a massive gold-hued cannon in the castle’s corner.
"Oh my, isn’t this the cannon that monster bird used to blast ?"
At this mont, Han Xing suddenly recalled.
When the Elite Puppet pulled the monster bird down from the sky, the cannon on its shoulder fell.
This cannon is incredibly powerful, as soone who experienced it firsthand, Han Xing knew clearly.
One blast even made a breach in his territory. If it hit a person, even an Elite Level Spiritual Puppet might not withstand the blast!
This thing is really a treasure, a fearso weapon!
After the shock ca an uncontrollable delight!
Han Xing felt his breath quicken.
He hurried over and picked up the golden cannon.
The item attributes appeared before his eyes.
[Molten Gold Cannon lv10 (Golden Special Equipnt), Quality - Treasure, Attack Power 436~472, Attached Effect - Explosion (Causes 150% impact damage upon contact, then detonates, causing 80% explosion damage to all objects within twenty ters), Attached Effect - Burn to Cinders (Units attacked by the Molten Gold Cannon will be inflicted with a Burning Embers state, continuously burning life.)]
[Remaining Durability]: 2/50 (Each attack consus 1 Durability. When Durability reaches zero, the equipnt becos scrap and cannot be repaired.)
Looking at the cracked surface of the cannon, Han Xing’s excited heart suddenly sank.
"Only two points of durability left? Does that an I can only fire two more cannon shots?"
Han Xing felt a twinge of regret, so he tried clicking on the durability behind the Molten Gold Cannon.
The system prompt appeared.
"Do you want to repair the special equipnt, ’Molten Gold Cannon’?"
"Repair requires materials: Permanent Gold Ingot*48, Vitality Ore*48, Spirit Core*4800, Rare Earth*48000. After successful repair, durability will be restored to full."
"It really can be done!"
Excitent appeared in Han Xing’s eyes. After a pause, he continued to think: "However, the materials for repairing this thing are a bit high-end. Permanent Gold Ingots and Vitality Ore are things I have never encountered. Even in the entire Zone 107, it might not be possible to collect them."
Han Xing glanced at the durability of the Molten Gold Cannon and exhaled: "Once the durability hits zero, it can’t be used anymore. This ans I can only fire one more shell before I find enough materials."
After pondering for a mont, Han Xing shook his head, "Oh well, one shot is not bad. At least, I’ve got another card up my sleeve!"
With this thought, Han Xing stopped agonizing over it.
He then began to organize his territory.
About half an hour later.
Zhang Lianng awoke from her unconscious state. She found herself lying on a bed, unsure of when she had been placed there.
When she opened her eyes, Han Xing’s back ca into view.
She was confused for a mont, then recalled being held in Han Xing’s arms before she fainted, and her face flushed with embarrassnt.
Her breathing even beca a bit rapid.
Han Xing heard the movent behind him and slowly walked over.
At this ti, Zhang Lianng was lying on the bed in a side-lying position, which accentuated her graceful figure.
The unique mix of maturity and a trace of childishness in Zhang Lianng’s aura was captivating at a glance.
Realizing Han Xing was approaching.
Zhang Lianng’s body tensed up instantly, her ten slender and cute toes curled together in an attempt to mask her nervousness. She shut her eyes again, pretending to still be unconscious.
However, Han Xing’s words rang by her ear, "Enough, your breathing is so heavy I could hear it from tens of ters away."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Lianng sat up in an instant. Lowering her head, her face was flushed with embarrassnt, looking very shy.
Han Xing didn’t say much but solemnly said, "This ti, thank you."
This gratitude was heartfelt.
After all, she had indeed saved his life.
Zhang Lianng clearly sensed that Han Xing’s attitude had softened greatly.
Han Xing was aloof towards strangers, but he couldn’t remain indifferent to soone who risked their life to save him.
Zhang Lianng softly responded with a hum.
Han Xing then asked, "What are your plans next?"
At this topic, Zhang Lianng suddenly felt a bit lost.
Indeed, where could she go?
Her core territory was destroyed, making it impossible for her to rebuild it.
Without a Sky Island, she could not even function freely in this world.
Han Xing saw her predicant and asked, "What about your man, still no response?"
Zhang Lianng seed to rember sothing. She quickly checked her ssages, and the next mont, Han Xing saw a look of sorrow on her face.
"He’s... he’s dead..."
"Dead?" Han Xing was montarily surprised.
Zhang Lianng nodded gently.
"His chat window turned black, the system indicates that this Survivor has been eliminated, and can no longer be contacted..."
As she spoke, tears uncontrollably stread down Zhang Lianng’s face.
Han Xing froze for a mont but thought it over, it was sowhat expected.
That guy ignored Zhang Lianng’s advice and acted recklessly.
They dared to challenge a Two-Star Secret Realm without even understanding its difficulty.
Death was a normal outco.
After a mont, Han Xing could only say, "My condolences."
Zhang Lianng continued to sob quietly.
But for so reason, she found that she wasn’t as sad as she had imagined.
After all, she and Liu Zeqi were only newly engaged, and in terms of familiarity, he didn’t even match up to the receptionists at his company.
He didn’t even know Zhang Lianng’s mother’s na, nor did he care about her matters.
Before, she kept wanting to find Liu Zeqi because, in this world, he was the only person she could contact.
Since arriving in this world, she never had a day where she felt secure, and she had just imagined Liu Zeqi to be her ntal support against fear.
But after spending the past two days together, the ntal image of her support seed to quietly change form.
She looked at the man in front of her.
Though they had only been together for two days, he gave her a sense of security she had never felt before...
Half an hour later.
When Zhang Lianng’s emotions had cald, Han Xing walked to her side as if he had made a certain decision.
Han Xing slowly opened his mouth and said, "Zhang Lianng, stay here."
