...
After a whole day of relentless combat.
All five people and one wolf leveled up by 1 to 2 levels.
Han Xing is now at level 24, while the others range between levels 21 to 23.
Besides, the area of Han Xing's territory has significantly expanded.
As the size of the clouds he challenges becomes increasingly vast.
Various new terrains continue to emerge.
Such as small volcanoes, ponds, mines, and more.
After a day, Han Xing's Sky Island overall expanded by 30%, reaching nearly four hundred thousand square meters.
After the day's battles ended, everyone began to rest.
Inside the Lord's Mansion meeting hall.
Han Xing said, "Today is the second day of the Blood Tide burst."
"Through the experience of the past two days, we have vaguely figured out a pattern."
"Which is that these Blood Tide creatures gather a terrifying number of monsters every day to assault our territory."
"But this is only a speculation; nobody knows what will happen next."
"We don't understand these Blood Tide creatures, nor do we know their exact numbers."
"So tonight, the three of us will take turns to keep watch, and if anything happens, notify the others immediately."
The three Han Xing mentioned are, of course, himself, Cheng Jianyong, and Shen Yun.
Everyone nodded.
Not only Han Xing had this thought.
Other Survivor teams are also staying vigilant, arranging for people to take turns on night watch.
Of course, more Survivors, pressured by the Blood Tide, couldn't sleep at all.
That night, the vast majority of the billions of people from Blue Star spent a sleepless night.
The next day.
When the first rays of dawn appeared.
All the Survivors grasped their weapons and stepped out of their shelters in unison.
They stared intensely at the horizon, as if fearing that along with the sunlight, countless Blood Tide creatures would also appear.
Amidst the anxious anticipation of the Blue Star Survivors.
The red sun rose slowly.
Until it was completely bright.
No incidents occurred.
In the chat channel, many Survivors questioned with confusion.
"Huh? No monsters attacked us today, did any show up on your side?"
"Not here either."
"I occasionally saw a small group, but the numbers were not large."
Upon hearing the words of other Survivors, everyone felt puzzled.
"What's going on? Could it be that this Blood Tide disaster has ended?"
"No way, the system didn't announce it, and the Battle Merit leaderboard isn't even published yet!"
"Maybe they'll just give out rewards directly without any public announcement."
"Impossible. I saw a really terrifying creature in the monster tide yesterday!"
"Such a creature hasn't been killed yet, how could it end so soon?"
"..."
Han Xing and the others were equally puzzled.
The four of them simultaneously looked at him.
Han Xing was taken aback, and spread his hands, saying, "Don't look at me, I have no idea what's going on either."
Everyone smiled awkwardly.
Because Han Xing had known about the Blood Tide outbreak half a month in advance.
Everyone instinctively thought he might know more.
Han Xing continued, "It's very strange that the Blood Tide didn't erupt today."
"But regardless, we should maintain our rhythm, continue leveling up, and focus on becoming stronger."
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded together.
Throughout the day, Han Xing still led the five in continuous exploration and monster hunting.
Until sunset in the afternoon.
They only encountered three or four waves of Blood Tide, and the number of monsters was below ten thousand.
Compared to the overwhelming scale of the previous two days, it seemed as if the Blood Tide monsters were completely wiped out by them.
Though puzzled, they didn't think much of it.
At this moment in Xingyu City.
The five people excitedly tallied up today's gains.
First, the biggest gain was everyone's levels.
Under the accumulation of massive Experience Value.
Han Xing has now reached level 25, and the others range from 22 to 24.
Besides that, it was the expansion of territory area.
Today, due to encountering only a few waves of Blood Tide monsters, most time was spent exploring those giant Sky Islands.
And Han Xing's Xingyu City expanded from over thirty thousand square meters to over fifty thousand, nearly sixty thousand square meters!
And that was while keeping the thickness of his territory the same!
There were now many new terrains on his territory.
Peaks, small islands, forests, and even a small stretch of desert.
These terrains generally contain some resources.
The most abundant resources are naturally the veins buried in the ground.
By rough estimation, the number of veins Han Xing holds is already a terrifying figure.
Various Constant Gold Ore, Rich Secret Silver Ore, Refined Iron Ore, Emerald Ore, if all mined, would be a substantial source of income.
But now, he doesn't have time to mine, and he lacks the manpower or NPCs for mining.
Though, Han Xing could command the Wolf Cavalry to act as miners.
However, there's a specialization; it's not suitable for the Wolf Cavalry, which is meant only for battle, to mine. They might accidentally destroy a whole vein.
So, Han Xing decided to temporarily shelve mining, planning to consider it later.
After all, he is not lacking resources for now.
Besides, there are various large plots of fertile fields, ponds, small rivers, etc.
Han Xing doesn't have time to plan them now.
He intends to do a unified arrangement once the territory reaches a larger scale.
...
The third day, fourth day, the same persisted.
The five continued leveling up and fighting monsters, improving their levels simultaneously.
Han Xing's Sky Island territory area also expanded rapidly.
Now, his territory exceeds one million square meters, a major breakthrough.
These days of battles were astonishingly rewarding.
All four had joyous smiles on their faces.
Except for Han Xing.
Even though the battles of these days were easy.
However, since yesterday afternoon, Han Xing has been frowning.
It's an indescribable feeling, as if an invisible pair of eyes is watching him.
Yet, whenever Han Xing stops at a Sky Island and takes the opportunity to look around, he still finds nothing unusual.
At this moment, the perceptive Shen Yun seemed to notice Han Xing's unusual expression.
After the others left.
Shen Yun approached Han Xing, smiled lightly, and asked, "Brother Xing, what's up these days, you seem to have something on your mind?"
Seeing Shen Yun's inquiry, Han Xing didn't want to be enigmatic.
He directly said, "Shen Yun, do you feel like our Sky Island is being watched?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yun furrowed his brows.
He pondered briefly, then shook his head, "No, Brother Xing, I don't have that feeling."
"Brother Xing, do you mean you feel something is watching us?"
Han Xing nodded, "Yes, I don't know if I'm overthinking, or if it's just my illusion."
Shen Yun said, "Brother Xing's intuition has always been accurate; if there's a cause, there must be a reason. Whether it's an illusion or not, we shouldn't let our guard down."
"Shall we continue taking turns keeping watch tonight?"
Han Xing nodded in agreement with this decision.
He called Cheng Jianyong over to explain the situation,
he also had no objections.
Everyone started taking turns on night watch.
Time passed slowly.
The chat channel tonight was exceptionally calm.
As if those Blood Tide creatures all vanished, occasionally only a cry for help could be heard.
However, just as everyone slightly let down their guard.
In the dead of night...
When the blood-red moon climbed back upon the branches.
In every corner of the Land of the Abandoned Gods.
The number of monsters gathered around each of those altars had somehow reached an overwhelming scale!
Covering the Sky and Sun!
Like a blood-red ocean!
Compared to this quantity, the group of monsters that raided the Survivors on the second day was utterly insignificant!
