Chapter 157: Chapter 093: The Second Territory War — Stanlo Village_2

Zhou Bai listened and said directly, "If they come in a short time, I will use the mission format to make myself the temporary village chief. Although my contribution level isn’t enough, so far, it is still the highest. I will come to accept the knighthood, which is only logical. Subsequently, I will solidify this identity through missions."

Listening, Bayer also came to understand.

Indeed, given the current situation of the territory, Zhou Bai indeed had enough influence to overwhelm others.

"You are about to be promoted, right?"

"Yes, it will happen in a day or two. After Level 10 Demon Beasts appeared, the process has sped up a lot," Zhou Bai replied.

"This is the time for laying the foundation. Skills are mostly triggered through combat; don’t invert the primary goal of upgrading with the means," Bayer cautioned.

It wasn’t that no one had taken shortcuts, but the consequence of taking shortcuts is that the higher the level, the more hollow the strength.

As long as the foundation is solid, even with a gap in levels, one can challenge those above.

"Yes." Zhou Bai nodded in agreement, having noticed this already herself. Therefore, to train herself, she would challenge a Level 10 Demon Beast alone every day.

The results were clear; she could feel her personal data continuously improving, and she had triggered many skills in combat.

After the agreement, Zhou Bai quickly issued the mission.

[Mission: Bounty Task]

[Nature: Timed Task (1 hour)]

[Introduction: Territory War is approaching; various territories are challenging Hope Village. Please, residents, recognize the race of the territory.]

[Reward: 1 Gold Coin]

[Eligible participants: All residents, visitors]

When Zhou Bai issued the mission, she also involved the people from Yuxi Village, mainly because of the few mercenary NPCs led by Bei Wenkang; the more native residents involved, the higher the chance.

As for why she included NPCs and all residents, who might not know, it was because Zhou Bai wanted Hope Village’s residents to be aware of everything they would face in the future.

After issuing it, Zhou Bai, taking advantage of the fact that there weren’t many people in the territory yet, directly summoned the day’s Undead NPCs and Beastman NPCs.

The NPCs summoned today were back to normal, and Zhou Bai settled them down as usual.

Then she returned home and quietly waited for feedback from the residents.

**

Almost immediately after it was issued, people within the territory received the notification.

Some perceptively sharp individuals immediately woke up.

After reading the content, they were stunned.

They had been prepared for the Territory War coming to them soon, but they had not expected so many territories to choose Hope Village at once.

And moreover, a bounty for recognizing territories was issued directly.

Recognize what?

Many people’s thoughts wandered, and they immediately thought of other races.

After all, there was no other reason.

In an instant, countless people couldn’t sleep anymore and rushed out of their houses.

In the tavern.

Bei Wenkang, who had slept soundly in a room for the night, was also stunned by this notification.

Wasn’t this Hope Village’s matter? What did it have to do with him, the lord of Yuxi Village? Why was he getting the message?

The next moment, he sprang from the bed.

A Territory War was coming to Hope Village.

He had to run fast! Otherwise, if he was late, he wouldn’t be able to leave.

Moreover, if he delayed another day, it was very likely that when his territory was challenged, he wouldn’t be present as the lord.

In a hurry, Bei Wenkang came out of the room and quickly started knocking on other people’s doors.

In a short while, all of Yuxi Village’s key people were gathered.

Bei Wenkang directly said, "I’ll grab my weapons, and we’ll set off immediately."

The others, knowing Hope Village’s situation, raised no objections.

Still, there was a hint of regret in their hearts.

If the Territory War hadn’t suddenly come up, they had planned to buy some more delicacies to take away that morning!

Now, with the territory like this, they probably weren’t in the mood to do business!

As for the mercenaries, two of them looked at the message with a flicker in their eyes.

Coincidentally, they knew one of the territories because they had heard about it during a previous mission.

But could they report it?

In the end, the two mercenaries couldn’t resist the temptation and quietly submitted.

After submitting, they followed Bei Wenkang’s steps out of the tavern to check out and leave.

While Bei Wenkang’s group initially thought they would see a chaotic territory once out of the tavern, the reality was that the Commercial Street was still open as usual, with residents directly eating breakfast at the noodle shop while many groups gathered, discussing animatedly.
