Chapter 26: The First Wave of the Demon Wave!

On the plateau, Li Tianlan was leading a team of five elemental thunder qilins to hunt down the surrounding monsters.

Although the level 20 five elemental thunder qilin was not an adult yet, the battle prowess it displayed allowed Li Tianlan to roam freely in the surroundings.

The monsters around her territory were Tier 4 sand scorpions. They were very big and lived in groups, which left Li Tianlan with no choice but to hide in her territory for the past two days.

After much difficulty, she managed to raise the level of the five elemental thunder qilins to level 20. After that, Li Tianlan directly swept through all the Tier 4 sand scorpions around her.

There was a lot of sand and stones around her. Li Tianlan used these sand and stones to expand her territory. What she needed the most now was high-level demonic meat.

There was a Poison Scorpion King among the sand scorpions. It was a Tier 5 elite monster. Li Tianlan wanted to kill it to help raise the level of the five elemental thunder qilins.

Unfortunately, this Poison Scorpion King was very slippery. When it sensed the aura of the five elements thunder qilins, it immediately ran away, not giving Li Tianlan the chance to make a move.

This was also a drawback of the high-tier army.

The aura of the high-tier army would terrify the surrounding monsters. If it were an ordinary monster, it would be fine. After all, its intelligence was not high. When the five elements thunder qilins caught up to them, they had not escaped yet.

However, elite-tier monsters had a lot of intelligence. It was very difficult to catch them.

After the fruitless search, Li Tianlan sat on the five elemental thunder qilin and stood where she was, frowning slightly.

Now, it seemed that she could only wait until the five elemental thunder qilin progressed 10 levels further and awakened Thunder Shadow Steps before she could catch this Poison Scorpion King.

At this time, Li Tianlan thought of 777.

Although he traded Tier 4 elite monster meat, being able to kill a Tier 4 elite monster at this time was enough to prove his strength.

"I just don't know what kind of soldier he awakened."

"Could it be a Tier 9 soldier?"

"That shouldn't be. A lord who awakened a Tier 9 soldier would need high-tier monster meat. It's unlikely that he would sell it."

"But if it's a low-tier soldier, how did the other party kill a Tier 4 elite monster?"

"Could it be that he used a trap or something?"

All kinds of guesses appeared in Li Tianlan's mind, but no matter what, this guy was worth paying attention to.

After sending another friend request, Li Tianlan fell silent for a moment, then returned to her territory with the five elemental thunder qilin.

At night, there would be even more high-level monsters around. Her five elemental thunder qilin was only level 20, so it was better not to move at night.

...

Ren Qi looked at the large number of wolf-type monster corpses in his territory, and the smile on his face became even wider.

These monster corpses would yield a thousand kilograms of demonic meat after being processed.

This was not a small amount of resources. Leaving behind the demonic meat to be consumed by the succubi, the rest could be traded for energy crystals.

For ow, he would take the opportunity to sell the demonic meat at a high price and wait till there was abundant high-level demonic meat, then buy it at a lower price. Once he was done, the amount of demonic meat he had would increase by a lot.

Opening the chat group, Ren Qi was ready to check if there was any useful news.

All sorts of messages were flooding the chat group. Most of them were information about transactions. Today, there were already quite a few lords who could hunt, and the number of transactions had also increased.

And then a message appeared, causing the flooding chat group to pause.

[ Tianjizi: Everyone, my perceptive-type mage has advanced to Level 50 and obtained the power of prophecy. Just now, he predicted that the first wave of the demon wave would arrive in five days. However, I don't know how high the level of the demon wave is. Everyone should make preparations early. ]

All the new lords seemed to be stunned by this news and were digesting it.

Very quickly, all sorts of messages flooded in crazily.

[ F*ck! Prophecy? The first wave of the demon wave will arrive in five days. The time is very short. ]

[ I don't know how powerful the demon wave will be. If it's only a low-level demon wave, then it's still fine. But if it's an intermediate or even high-level demon wave, then it's over. ]

[ Sob, sob, sob... I'm still hiding in my territory. I can't even deal with the monsters outside. If the demon wave comes, won't I be doomed? ]

[ Hahaha, all the monsters in my territory have been killed. Hurry up and come. Give me more demonic meat. ]

[ Terrifying! Tianjizi's perception-type mage has already reached level 50. How did he do it? Could it be that all the demonic meat has been fed to this mage? ]

[ Everyone, I suggest that the lords closest to me join forces to resist the demon wave and increase their chances of survival. I'm at Lanhai's Hidden Trade Channel No. 34. Are there any brothers around me? ]

All sorts of messages kept pouring into the chat group.

Some were happy, while others were worried. For those lords with high-ranked troops, the arrival of the demon wave was a chance for them.

As long as they could survive the demon wave, they would be able to obtain a large amount of demonic meat from the demon wave to increase their ranks.

However, for those lords with weaker soldiers, the arrival of the demon wave was a matter of life and death.

Many lords had already begun to join forces to resist the demon wave.

Ren Qi took a deep breath. The arrival of the demon wave was a test and an opportunity for him.

His overall strength was not bad. Although the Tier 7 and Tier 8 soldiers were stronger, their levels would not increase too quickly.

In the next five days, Ren Qi was confident that all his succubi would reach Level 50. When the succubi reached adulthood, their combat strength would increase greatly.

In addition to the defensive items in the surroundings and Maggie's support, it should be easy to resist the demon wave.

Of course, before the demon wave arrived, the most important thing was to quickly increase one's strength.

Looking at the dilapidated buildings in his territory, Ren Qi frowned slightly.

The territory was very simple and crude. There were only a few basic houses and simple defensive buildings. Ren Qi had bought a large number of defensive items to properly prepare his territory.

The rank of a lord was mainly reflected in the strength of their troops, but the territory was also important.

After all, if the territory was breached and the recruitment pool was destroyed, there would be no new recruits in the future.

With things like the teeth and fur of monsters, together with wood and stone materials, various buildings could be built.

Ren Qi took out some construction blueprints. These were all blueprints for defensive items and buildings, but many of the required materials were lacking at the moment, so they could only be put aside for now.

However, wood and stone could still easily spreabe used to spread out the territory. With the defensive items Ren Qi had bought, his territory's defensive strength could be ranked among the top of the new lords.

There were still five days left before the demon wave arrived. Time was very precious.

After eating a few more pieces of demonic meat, Ren Qi directly went into the house to rest. He had to conserve his energy. Only with enough energy could he better manage everything in the territory.

The night was silent.

The next morning, Ren Qi finished his breakfast and went to the recruitment pool.

It was time to recruit a new succubus.

He hoped that his luck would be better this time.
