Chapter 13

Lu Cang was extremely skilled at suppressing his own aura.

Lu Cang silently crept up to the sleeping lone wolf.

His movements were gentle, yet extremely precise.

He thrust once, driving straight into its throat.

This strike hit a vital point, killing it instantly.

【You have slain the Lone Wolf】

Lu Cang directly stored its corpse into his own backpack.

The backpack space owned by a Lord is very large.

In the vast majority of cases, there is no need to worry about resources not fitting.

After slaying one lone wolf,

Lu Cang continued forward.

Seeking more suitable prey.

For Lu Cang, this was also a form of adaptation and tempering.

Lu Cang did not want to forget the cruelty of this world just because he had obtained a Supreme Grade Nest.

If he underestimated the enemy, if he became arrogant and lost his head, he might very well suffer a setback.

And perish in regret.

And fighting this way, relying on his own strength,

was precisely a method to adjust his mindset.

Moreover, he could also conveniently harvest some monster corpses to exchange for Gene Points back home.

【Barren Wasteland】

"Developing in this place is truly too difficult."

Chris looked at the barren land.

She let out a long sigh.

"And we are also wanted."

"If we are caught, I suppose my life will end very quickly."

"It is a pity for Teacher Electus..."

"And I haven't even properly confessed to him yet."

Chris was no ordinary person; she was precisely a Cursed One from the same batch as Lu Cang.

Lu Cang and Chris had known each other since childhood.

In fact, the two of them had attended the same school from childhood to adulthood.

Lu Cang was always first, while she was always second.

It could be called an inexplicable fate.

But who would have thought that fate would play such tricks.

On the very day they awakened their territories, they both unexpectedly awakened cursed territories.

They were deemed evil and were not allowed to enter the Lord World.

If Lu Cang had not accidentally obtained the contact information for the 【Zuzhou Society】,

and shared it with her,

perhaps she would now only be able to die, swallowed by the curse, in the real world.

"No, I cannot give up like this."

"If there are no resources, then create resources."

"He gave me a second chance to live; this time, I should be the one to save him."

Chris clenched her small fist.

She rallied her spirit.

"First, I must level up to a Second Grade Territory."

"Let me see, what conditions are required for me to level up to a Second Grade Territory."

…………

"Is this the new Mist Zone?"

"It seems to be a Fifth Grade Mist Zone; it appears there won't be any overly rare resources."

A Fifth Grade Mist Zone means that within this area, the highest rank of monsters is merely Fifth Grade.

It counts as an intermediate level.

"Don't say that; in the Rainforest region, resources are still very abundant."

"It is far better than the desert."

"That is true; if we can encounter resources like 【Blue Fruit】 or 【Life Grass】, this trip will not be a loss."

"Damn, so lacking in ambition?"

"Just because the Mist Zone's rank is low doesn't mean it truly won't produce Gao Jie resources, okay!"

"I recall that back then, in an Eighth Grade Stone Forest terrain, someone discovered a secret steel stone the size of a house."

"This is high-grade material capable of withstanding most Saint Grade attacks."

This exploration team slowly approached the edge of the Mist Zone.

This was an alliance formed by three Lords.

Their territory is all Tier 5.

The high-tier troops they possess are roughly all Tier 4 to 5.

Exploring this Mist Zone is just right.

"We've agreed — whoever discovers it first in this Mist Zone gets the resources."

"Damn it, do I need to say it again? So damn wishy-washy."

"It's a Tier 5 Mist Zone — could I really swallow up your treasure or something?"

"Move out, now!"

…………

Time flew by.

After Lu Cang had been hunting for five hours,

he returned to the Secret Steel Shishan and slept.

His current body is no different from an ordinary person's.

He still gets tired and wants sleep.

In his slumber, suddenly, a notification arrived.
