Chapter 440: The Unexpected Attack

(A/N: I messed up with the previous Chapter thankfully someone pointed the mistake. It wasn’t supposed to be level 4 but level 3. Forgive author-sama for the mistake. Hu hu.)

[Main Mountain Peak, 7: 01 p.m.]

Waiting for the territory to finish upgrading caused murmurs of excitements to fill the place with vigor and hope.

Bao’er was with her brother and happened to see the girl standing in front of everyone. Her eyes were especially drawn to the creatures resembling the cute stuff toys she owned back in their world as well as the white furry fox she was carrying.

"Woah!" Her eyes sparkled and wanted to squeeze herself in the crowd and to pat them at least once.

"Why does it smell like blood?" Chunhu’s nose wrinkled.

Haoran and Siri standing beside her also tried to sniff but didn’t smell any.

Ding—

[Your Probationary Resident ’Nian Zhen’ had been gravely injured.]

[Your Probationary Resident ’Lin He’ had been gravely injured.]

[Your Probationary Resident ’Liu Tang’ had been gravely injured.]

[Your Probationary Resident....]

[Your Mountain Road had been breached.]

[Calculating Damage...20%...32%...51%...]

[Do you wish to spend 445 units of wood, 376 units of stones, 70 units of limestone, 178 gallons of water, and 1180 copper coins to repair Mountain Road?]

[Do you wish to spend 605 units of wood, 509 units of stones, 110 units of limestone, 178 gallons of water, and 2030 copper coins to repair Mountain Road?]

[Do you wish...]

Haoran only blinked and the girl beside him vanished. He could only sense wind brushing passed him.

[Congratulations! Your Territory, Salted Fish had successfully upgraded to Level 3!]

[As an official resident of the Salted Fish Territory, you’ll gain +3 points in every stat!]

The increase in stat points was supposed to be good news but no one was in the mood to celebrate after they heard the cry.

"Help me!"

Haoran only then understood why Chunhua had disappeared.

Ding—

[You’ve received a message from your friend, Little Baozi]

[Little Baozi]: A’ran, catch them!

Everyone saw dots falling from the sky before a large pan materialized, large enough to cover the square.

Haoran quickly threw all the blankets to soften the landing’s impact before catching all the dots.

Upon finishing, he set the pan on the ground.

Everyone gasped looking at the state of the wounded players.

Bao’er clung onto her brother’s clothes, feeling suffocated by the amount of blood.

Siri came running with an elliptic beads and when he saw the badly injured residents. He quickly called the healers to provide first aids and had the logistics retrieved bandages before asking help to bring the unconscious people inside.

"What’s happening?" Everyone was fidgeting, unable to find out what’s going on but they still provided help.

Haoran, after doing his part, quickly flew towards the edge.

"Erling and Fern follow him! Everyone else retreat inside!" Siri ordered, partly guessing what had happened. He needs to secure the safety of everyone first.

Erling and Fern gathered their teams and run towards the mountain stairs but before they can heard a loud sound from behind, causing the land beneath their feet to shake, followed by the gust of wind.

"That won’t be necessary." Chunhua descended. Her face smeared with purple stains was chilly and cold.

Everyone looked at her hands, dragging something in each. Upon closer look, they seemed to be monsters—one had horns and the other was a half female spider, they were bounded by silver threads.

"Master! Is that—" Siri came running after finishing his task, planning to reinforce but he happened to see one of the monster matched the description of Undra.

But instead of answering his question, Chunhua asked, "Are they alright?"

Siri could discern her particular worry and reassured her, "Their in critical condition and still receiving treatment but no one died."

Chunhua’s expression visibly softened. She was afraid that she was too late.

"What are you going to do with them?" Considering that she had only subdued and didn’t kill them, she must have other intentions.

"I’m planning to let Nian Zhen and the others decide on that. Little Mantou and Elga should also have a say."

Because of the elliptic bead Siri held, Erling and those from the Quintera Region saw one of the monsters’ appearance and quivered from fear.

Why is the abysmal race also here? Are they planning to turn this planet into another colony?

In the newly built clinic, Nian Zhen opened his eyes.

++++

[Stairways to Salted Fish Territory, a few hours ago]

"A bunch of useless ants."

Nian Zhen groggily opened a small gap in his left eye. The other eye was swollen and it hurts with little movements from the punch the succubus had given.

His neck was pinched by her and it was hard to breathe. Nian Zhen saw black spots dancing in his vision and was closed to passing out.

They were back from harvesting a field of loofah gourds, planning to turned them into products and sell them to the residents but midway into climbing the mountain, the stairs were destroyed and a humanoid monster, a succubus to be precise blocked their paths and started attacking them while asking if they happened to see a golden-haired pixie.

Nian Zhen knew who the succubus referred to.

It was Elga, the one who saved them from the horde of monsters before. They were indebted to her, prompting them to shut their mouths until they were beaten to unconscious state.

"Do you think I won’t kill you? Your expression tells me you know where that b*tch is! Spit it out or I’ll let you die with an incomplete corpse!"

Undra, after tasting defeat in the hands of Elga and getting one of her horns broken, wanted to seek vengeance and quenched the humiliation she suffered.

So upon regaining her strength from using the berserker skill, she used her connection with the horn to track the damnable pixie’s whereabouts.

Her plan only partly succeeded. Something was preventing her from pinpointing the accurate location. The only thing she knew that it was the Mountain Peak.

Her face turned sour.

"I find this boring." A high-pitch sultry voice resounded from behind Undra. "When are you wrapping this up? My children are still waiting to be fed."
