Shen Xing guessed that the altar that Hellroar discovered was very likely the sacred altar that Xia Wanyin had mentioned.
I felt a little excited.
After all, according to her, this kind of altar, like the demon statue, can yield special treasures through sacrifice.
There is also a chance to obtain seeds from ancient trees.
My first gold building, the Hero Altar, was obtained through the Demon Statue.
This sacred altar might yield some good things.
"Hellroar, if I let you take Bloodhowl and Roar, what are your chances of taking down that temple?" Shen Xing asked.
The orc pondered for a moment, then the blue markings between his brows emitted a halo of wisdom once more: "My lord, it should be ninety percent."
"What if I give you another squad of lesser demons?"
"We should be absolutely certain."
"What if—I were to give you an elite orc squad of a hundred?"
Hellscream shuddered: "I'm 130% confident!"
"Excellent!" Shen Xing laughed. "Once I've assembled an orc legion, we'll attack that temple on a chosen day!"
"Yes, sir!" the orc replied respectfully.
Shen Xing withdrew his gaze and looked at the hero Lena beside him: "Tell me about what you discovered today."
The red-haired woman gathered her thoughts and said slowly, "Today I ventured deep into the mountain range you mentioned and sensed a very strong fire elemental aura in a valley."
"Following the scent, we discovered a hidden cave."
"The cave was very deep and hot, as if it led all the way to the bottom of the earth."
"At the deepest point, we saw a flowing river of lava, and a giant sword suspended above the lava, radiating a terrifying pressure."
"It also contains a large number of hellish creatures, including imps, fire bats, and hellish brats."
"We fought these monsters, but there were too many enemies, so we had to retreat for the time being."
She stretched out her fair palm, on which two eerie green flames appeared: "I found these on the edge of the lava river."
""
"Hellfire Seed—" Shen Xing recognized this thing; it was the key item used to recruit inferior demons.
He pressed further, "Are there many of these kinds of fire sources in that area?"
Lena thought for a moment and nodded gently: "Yes, quite a lot."
Shen Xing's heart stirred; he was preparing to recruit more inferior demons to enhance the power of the bombing squad.
This is truly like a pillow delivered just when you're about to fall asleep.
Currently, the locations discovered by these two generals are both very important.
There appears to be a sacred altar inside the temple on the west side.
Deep within the caves of the northern mountains lies a greatsword embedded in lava, along with a vast quantity of hellfire.
We must take them all!
Since it appeared near my territory, it must be something prepared for me!
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 Hellroar, you've managed it well, sending people to clean the territory every day, keeping it spotless."
Hellscream was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "My lord, actually—I did not send anyone to clean up the territory."
"No one was sent?" Shen Xing asked疑惑地, "Then why is the territory so clean every day?"
"In fact, I also find it very strange."
Hellscream carefully considered his words before speaking in a low voice, "The territory was in chaos during the day, with stone chips and dust flying everywhere from the orcs' training."
"But by the next day, all those traces had disappeared."
"Including the grain silo that was invaded by the griffon yesterday, the food inside was scattered everywhere."
"When I led the orcs in to tidy up, I found that it had already been organized, with all kinds of 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: "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 23:30 p.m.
He pushed his wheelchair to the window and looked out at the city shrouded in rain.
Then I opened the [Trading Section] and listed my upgraded treasure, [Broken Eyeball], there.
The demand is naturally for other units' super-grade 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 looked around, his eyes sharp as a hawk's, scanning every corner.
I want to see who's up to their old tricks on my lord's turf.
However—after inspecting the area, they found that the territory had not changed at all.
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 is 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 True Sight Eyes he secretly placed on the outskirts of the territory spotted the target!
Shen Xing instantly activated [Hope's Feathers], and his entire body soared into the air.
Dozens of meters in the air, he used his excellent view to spot a dark figure.
The dark figure was crawling forward in a very strange way at the edge of the territory.
The opponent seemed to realize that it had been exposed, and suddenly increased its 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 toward the edge of the mist at top speed.
But they were still a step too slow, and the other side slipped into the fog.
Hellroar 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," Hellroar 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 toward him or the territory.
Otherwise, they would have already taken action a few days ago.
However, it's a bit puzzling why the other party likes to come to my territory and clean up for me.
Could it be—some kind of perverse sense of humor?
After thinking for a moment, Shen Xing stopped dwelling on the matter and turned around to say, "Alright, go back to rest. Don't worry about it too much."
Although Hellscream was somewhat puzzled, he 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 the twenty-first day that Shen Xing had been in the game.
After logging back into the game.
He immediately located Hellroar, preparing to use [Sacrifice Evolution] to help it transform once again.
After all, this orc is already a three-star leader.
The next level up is the legendary Boss level.
This is also a significant transformation, several times more important than the transition from elite to leader, and its difficulty naturally increases exponentially.
Only the head of an army or the leader of an army deserves the title of leader.
According to the strategies on the forum, these potential unit types all possess extremely strong learning abilities and exclusive leader-level skills.
These leader-level skills are even comparable to hero-specific skills, possessing the ability to turn the tide of battle.
More importantly, the leader also possesses independent battlefield command capabilities.
There's a saying: "It's easy to find a thousand soldiers, but hard to find a general."
Even if those Tier 3 expert lords already have hero-level units in their territories, they may not be able to cultivate a true leader-level unit.
"Let me see if I can promote him directly to the leader level."
"9
Shen Xing activated the [Sacrifice Evolution] talent and used it on Hellroar.
"Buzz—"
With a flash of red light, the familiar prompt appeared.
This unit is at level 11 (Tier 2 Transcendent). Its potential has reached its level limit. Forcibly evolving it carries a risk of it exploding.
As expected, just like in the first stage, it needs to be upgraded to level 19, which is the maximum level of the second stage, before it can continue to evolve.
Upon reaching the second-tier transcendent level, the number of soul stones required to upgrade by one level has reached 30, and this number increases with each level.
Fortunately, after breaking through to the second tier, his physique improved significantly, and the speed at which he absorbed soul stones also increased several times.
Shen Xing muttered to himself, "It's only been three days since Hellroar broke through, and he's already leveled up twice, plus he's gone out to explore. This speed is already quite impressive."
"As expected, we should be able to reach the second-tier maximum level in about ten days to two weeks."
"At that time, he can be promoted to leader."
Although the Hero Altar can revive Hellscream, it's okay if he fails to break through and dies from his explosion.
But this approach is ultimately too risky.
Furthermore, it is unknown how many materials are needed to revive a second-tier transcendent being.
Just to be on the safe side, Shen Xing decided against forcibly increasing his level.
Of course, the daily [Sacrifice Evolution] should not be wasted.
After thinking about it, I decided to give this opportunity to Lena.
After all, these are the only two extraordinary-level 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 Lena practicing her sword.
