Chapter 554: Territory Stone

The thing is, this boss still has another stage.

This stage is basically a fight to the death.

Reborn as a true lord‑level boss, but with only twenty seconds of lifespan.

It ended in splendid brilliance.

…

「Hahaha!! 」】

「Mo Wen Qianchen! Mo Wen Qianchen, you also get insta‑killed sometimes! 」

Ye Tianzi saw Su Sheng get insta‑killed with a slap, couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Is Ye Tianzi stupid?

He isn't stupid!

Although he is the chairman of one of the top ten guilds, he has suffered too many losses lately; his hatred for Yan Huang, or rather for Su Sheng, has clouded some of his rationality.

At this moment, seeing Su Sheng get insta‑killed, he only thought about getting excited.

He didn't notice that although Su Sheng was insta‑killed, he turned into a corpse rather than fading into white light.

He had also watched the livestream of the Little Days invasion back then, although no one knew that the Life Ring had fallen into Su Sheng's hands.

But this familiar scene, a rational chairman, could still tell it apart.

Unfortunately… at this moment, Ye Tianzi's mind was filled only with the fact that Mo Wen Qianchen had been insta‑killed.

Boom!

Immediately after, the Skeleton War God rushed over.

One hammer strike, and Ye Tianzi also met his glorious end.

The Yan Huang Assassin Guild had already fled at the first opportunity.

Meanwhile, the remaining Imperial Dynasty members, seeing Ye Tianzi get insta‑killed, afterward wisely had those not in Combat State immediately use Return City Scrolls to at least reduce losses.

Boom boom boom!

The Skeleton War God was still rampaging, with no skills, only fists, but moving very fast.

Moreover, its fists come with built‑in AOE!

Swish swish!

In the end, it managed to smash four to five hundred people before the Imperial Dynasty members could withdraw.

Finally, with no targets left nearby, the Skeleton War God locked its gaze on the nearby stealthy Yan Huang Assassin Team.

My goodness!

It directly gave the players of the nearby stealthy assassin team a big fright.

Until everyone had withdrawn outside the camp, the Skeleton War God only then ceased its pursuit.

When the final twenty seconds elapsed, clatter~

The Skeleton War God scattered into a pile of bones; this time it truly died and could not die again.

Then Chen Guan brought people back.

"Sheng bro, did you just lose your virginity?" Chen Guan looked at Su Sheng's corpse on the ground and couldn't help teasing.

Su Sheng's face darkened; this really is his virginity. Female plug.

Get lost, bastard.

Fortunately, there is a Life Seed, and Huang Mingxin is hiding in the bushes outside the camp.

If the distance is too great and the Life Seed fails, Su Sheng would truly have capsized this time.

Ten seconds later~

Swish~

Light shone, and Su Sheng revived at full health in place.

The Life Seed took effect.

Ding~

Congratulations, player, mission completed.

Ding~

Just after reviving, a bunch of System Notifications came up.

Su Sheng clicked his tongue, glanced at the battlefield, and saw the remaining Imperial Dynasty members' few hundred pieces of equipment.

The equipment previously dropped by the dead had been picked up by the Imperial Dynasty members themselves.

Only the equipment of those few people killed by the boss's hammer remained, which counted as unexpected windfall.

The Imperial Dynasty are really good people, sending warmth from afar.

Now we can start organizing the loot.

First are the regular drops of base materials; the total amount of various materials reached a hundred thousand.

Tsk tsk, not bad.

Looking at the boss drops, the ordinary materials added together, miscellaneous, also reached over a hundred twenty thousand.

These materials added together are basically enough for the base construction.

The sole orange material, Su Sheng glanced at it, and it was also a base teaching material.

Territory Stone (orange)

Base material: can replace the original Territory Stone to become the new Territory Core.

HP: Village stage (one million), Town stage (ten million), Main City stage (one hundred million).

Oh wow, good stuff.

Su Sheng's eyes lit up; this isn't bad.

The Territory Stone, the core of the base, is inside the village chief's wooden house; at this point the Territory Stone has only 100,000 HP.

If the Territory Stone is destroyed, the base disappears.

And this epic-level Territory Stone has ten times the HP of a normal Territory Stone.

Not bad, not bad; now the Territory Stone is even safer.

Otherwise, with too little HP, there's no guarantee it won't be raided.

Take Su Sheng, for example…

If you infiltrate the core of Qiancheng Muxue's base and unleash a Demon God Lightning…

That's stealing a crystal!

Of course, the premise is that Qiancheng Muxue must have a base.

And right now, this epic-level Territory Stone can prevent that situation.

Considering the terrifying difficulty of this Boss, this thing isn't unreasonable.

When only three percent of its HP remains, it can basically wipe out the Imperial Dynasty—so tell me, isn't that terrifying?

Alright, the monster and Boss drops have been tallied; now let's look at the quest rewards.

This is the only time‑limited Easter Egg Quest of five‑star difficulty!

Ding~

Congratulations, player, for completing the base quest "Clear the Horse Bandit Camp."

Successfully cleared the horse bandits and earned various building materials as a reward.

Wood: 50,000

Stone: 30,000

Iron ore: 10,000

…

…

A mishmash of materials, totaling 200,000 building materials overall.

Su Sheng, somewhat helpless, curled his lip and thought, "What good are so many materials? The materials already given are enough for the village's construction; these are completely excess."

Aside from a bit needed for daily upkeep, the next time massive building materials are needed will be when upgrading the town.

Town…

In some far‑off time, a fourth‑level guild can apply to upgrade the base to a town.

A fifth‑level guild can establish a Main City.

But it's better than nothing.

It can be considered preparation; after monsters siege the base, repairing it will also require some materials.

Next…

Congratulations, player, for completing the hidden quest.

Wu Shao Rebel Army!

Reward: Reputation +10,000

Congratulations, player, for completing the only hidden quest, clearing the rebels.

Reward: Special Building Materials +10,000.

(Special Building Materials: Using them in base construction increases durability by one‑third.)

Ding~

Completed Easter Egg Quest "Followers of the Undead."

The Empire received the news, learned of your heroic deeds, Lord, and hereby rewards you with an Upgrade Exploration Order.

That's all, just that much.

They gave ten thousand reputation, which is a bit untimely.

Previously, after painstakingly gathering reputation, why wasn't it given when applying for the Exploration Order?

It really is…

Special building material is decent; you can choose which material to exchange for.

If the entire base could use Special Building Materials.

Tsk tsk…

Su Sheng drools at the thought.

But it can only remain a thought; after all, such a tough quest yields so little, and building the entire base with special teaching material…

Tsk…

As for the setting of this Special Building Material, Su Sheng understands it fairly well.

After all, in reality, the cement used for road construction and that for military bases aren't of the same grade.

Building materials come in all sorts of grades.

Very normal…

Immediately after, Su Sheng looked at the final reward, wondering what an Upgrade Exploration Order is.

Upgrade Exploration Order (Special)

…

…

Su Sheng's eyes widened…
