Chapter 162: Grinding Levels

[Congratulations on surviving the first weekly disaster!]

[Your territory ranked no. 5 on the event. A reward of 3% buff will be bestowed on the landowner and the residents.]

Li Jingnan smiled and told the good news to his friends.

At the same time, Si and the others checked their stats and were satisfied with the reward of a 3% buff. With the impending monster tide, any boost in stats was welcomed, and this also made them aware of the benefits of obtaining a rank in the event.

The players and teams that didn’t manage to secure a place in the Top 100 could only beat their chests in frustration and aim to do better next time.

[Countdown before Monster Tide: 2 Days: 10 Hrs: 03 Mins: 34 Secs]

[Time: 7:56 a.m.]

[Weather Forecast: Sunny, 28 degrees Celsius]

Li Jingnan clenched his fist. Now that the weather has returned to normal, they need to pick up their pace and level up. He told his friends to each lead a team, make everyone reach level 5 as soon as possible, and have them choose classes.

Not only Falcon Squad was having discussions about leveling up. Players gathered their natives and set out hoping to reach level 5, while those who already reached level 5 went to familiarize themselves with more of their skills.

Each beginner’s class had four basic passive and active skills.

The no. 27 peeps were in a much better situation because of the additional rewards of the level upgrade. Those that were level 4 yesterday had happily chosen their class, while the rest were hurrying to make use of the remaining time.

And of them was Sun Qinghe, leading five of his men and ten of their natives to set forth to their grinding spot, which was grassland full of galloping ram monsters, located a hundred meters from their territory.

[Rammonger Lv. 3–450/450]

[Rammonger Lv. 2- 340/340]

Sun Qinghe had his men flank this ram, which he assisted on the side, tanking the damage to test his S-level skill.

[You’ve gained 50 experience points.]

[You’ve got 35 copper coins.]

Sun Qinghe frowned because he found out that if he were to constantly rely on the skill, he would also suffer injuries in the process. Therefore, he needed medicines or recovery items, and the feasible solution was to have a priest in their team.

The salted fish with fairy grandmother Siri as the supervisor didn’t stay idle. Though. they were still living behind the shadows of yesterday’s events.

Loli Elga had been growing molds after becoming the accountant intern, and when she was offered a job to be an escort together with the nine-tailed infant fox and hack monsters, she agreed immediately.

Siri distributed white-quality equipment and wrote them on tab since the warehouse had a surplus of it.

Meng Chu, the three brothers, two other young women named Bai Su Su and Yin’er, Fern, and three beast men were grateful, thanked the Elf, and joined the party.

Aunt He and the three other middle-aged women returned to their homes and started sewing, processing the raw materials for the fabric, and cleaning and drying the animal hides based on the elf’s instructions.

While one of them, who had experience selling stuff, took over Elga’s job and stared at the trading market while keeping record on the supplies in the warehouse.

And when Auntie read through the journal entries, she was flabbergasted. The numbers in the manual count were not in single digits but in hundreds or thousands. This could last a team of 50 people for several months.

She knew Player Baozi was rich, but this was on a different level. It broadened her horizons, making her eager to earn residents points and stay on this territory.

As early as 6 in the morning, after eating her master’s meals, sharpening her weapon, and packing up rations, Loli Elga bid her handsome and stoic master a goodbye.

Long Haoran also gave her quite a bit of equipment and snacks, and Loli Elga nearly confessed her love on the spot. If not for another fan fox tugging at the hem of the pixie’s dress, Long Haoran would have ended up being tackled again.

Siri drew his plans for the design sketches for the public bathhouse and toilets, the sewage, before leaving the papers to Rioli, planning to go out and find some poisonous species of plants and medicinal plants in the wilderness.

After learning of his master’s deeds yesterday, he ought to lessen her burden, but one thing troubles him the most: how was she able to summon a dragon?

That is a high-tier spell. Could it be that her tutor in her previous world was so powerful?

But what exactly is their world?

Knowing that he couldn’t get an answer at this moment, the elf sighed. It was a good thing that her master was not suffering from mana overdraft and was only sleeping. Recalling the bite wounds he sustained in his arms, he pursed his lips. "Ow, it hurts."

Ever since he met his master, all kinds of weird things have happened, and there will probably be more in the future. He should mentally prepared himself.

After making preparations, the elf sought Long Haoran, who had just finished feeding the chickens and picking up the eggs. He was carrying a small bamboo basket.

"I will leave my master to you. Take care of her. I have something to do and will come back this afternoon." Siri dropped these words before walking towards the exit with a huge travel bag on his shoulder.

"I will." Long Haoran mumbled these words under his breath, and after the elf disappeared, he placed the basket on the chicken’s pen before fetching some water for the other livestock.

Little Ginseng was tasked with tending the plants. It became the new gardener since the elf was so busy. It plucked the dead leaves and watered the crops.

When Long Haoran arrived at the livestock, he was welcomed with noise, and the animals approached the edges.

"Meh, meh." The two crocs opened their mouths. (Hey, new water delivery boy! How is the landowner doing? I haven’t seen her around.)

The other livestock perked their ears.

Normally, either Loli Elga or Li Chunhua would be the ones taking care of their vegan meals, but both of them were nowhere to be seen, so the animals were curious, especially about the rain whisperer or dragon summoner.

Long Haoran wasn’t versed in the monster language and only thought that they were complaining about their diet.

Thus, he took out a ginseng, and the moment these monsters saw it, they nearly broke their pens and launched themselves on the man.

A fifth-class herb!

(ˉ﹃ˉ)(ˉ﹃ˉ)(ˉ﹃ˉ)(ˉ﹃ˉ)

Drools came out of the corners of their mouths.

"Meh Meh! Croo! Oink! Moo!" Hey handsome two-legged creature! Can we have some? We will exchange green leaves for it!

Long Haoran sliced the ginseng in equal portions before giving each, and the monsters sent him heart-shaped eyes, and his impression went from water delivery boy to handsome ginseng guy.

"Meh Meh!" The crocs bleated. (Watch out!)

Suddenly, something hit him in the back of the head.

[-24]

He searched for the culprit and saw the broken pane with its skewed hinges and loosened screws that had flew inside the pen and nearly smashed against the crocs.

He turned around.

"I’m sorry. I was in a hurry, and I didn’t mean it." Li Chunhua was biting her thumb in guilt. It seems that her strength has improved.

She’s awake?

There was relief flashing through Long Haoran’s eyes as he saw her awake, well, standing and not resting on the bed.

"Are you alright? You fainted yesterday." Long Haoran approached the window before asking, concern was laced in his voice.

"I am. By the way, Chef Long, what happened after I fainted? What about those two dragons? About the weather..."

Long Haoran didn’t answer her questions but asked a different question instead.

"Are you hungry?"

"Oh...I am!" Li Chunhua instantly stopped throwing a bunch of questions and responded. Her stomach rumbled at the same time. She completely forgot about yesterday’s matters in the face of food.

Long Haoran smiled, and the corners of his eyes crinkled making his features basked in light.
