Chapter 43: Grandma Liu Enters the Grand View Garden, Obsessed with Mooching Meals

On this fourth day, farmers built over a hundred arrow towers in the east, west, and north directions of the territory.

This brought the total number of arrow defense towers in the territory to 200.

Moreover, quite a few were constructed in the wild,

hunting down beasts that occasionally emerged from the mist.

Through experimentation, Su Yu discovered that defense towers built in the wild via "Saint Ti's Blessing"

would not attract the target's hostility toward the territory.

In other words,

he could build multiple defense towers scattered throughout the wild.

This way, when a monster tide arrived,

their attention and attack targets could be dispersed from the single territory to all directions in the wild!

Now, Su Yu's territory, along with the wild outside it,

within a radius of a thousand meters, not even a fly could get in.

The triangular formation constructed by the arrow defense towers

was enough to instantly kill any monster stepping onto the territory!

There was no room to exploit loopholes!

Under these circumstances, who could break into his territory?

Su Yu, surprised, opened the territory map and looked at the small blue dot on it.

On the territory map, green dots represent one's own side, and red dots represent the enemy.

The forces of any unfamiliar lord are also automatically marked as red dots.

The blue dot was precisely Su Yu's friendly lord.

"This girl..."

Realizing the arrival was Bai Xiaowei, Su Yu felt a mix of helplessness and amusement.

He had thought it was some monster skilled in stealth that had evaded the arrow towers' net.

"She really came."

Su Yu personally went down the mountain to pick up Bai Xiaowei.

Bai Xiaowei was his classmate and also a lord,

so he would not put on airs.

"Su-Su-Su-Su-Su-Su-Su... Great God Su Yu."

Seeing Su Yu appear, Bai Xiaowei's tongue tied itself in knots, and she could not speak.

She stared with wide eyes at her surroundings,

at the barren mountains, at the wasteland, at the arrow defense towers everywhere,

her face filled with shock.

She looked exactly like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden.

"Let's go, let's eat."

Su Yu patted Bai Xiaowei's shoulder, casually brushing off a few fallen leaves from her clothes.

A girl who had just graduated from high school,

capable of traveling 50 kilometers a day, even through forest and valley terrain,

Su Yu had to admit he was somewhat impressed by Bai Xiaowei.

This girl who constantly clamored for him to lead her and begged to cling to his thigh,

saying she wanted to come mooch a meal, he had thought was just a joke,

but she actually came.

Fortunately, Sylph had cleared the route beforehand; otherwise,

if Bai Xiaowei had encountered even one or two beasts, she wouldn't have made it here.

But Bai Xiaowei did not know that Sylph had cleared the route,

so, from her perspective, even if there were many ferocious beasts ahead,

she kept moving forward, even if death would send her back to the starting point, even if death would make her efforts Futile Effort,

she still kept moving forward.

"I, I seem to be a bit dirty," Bai Xiaowei said, looking at her disheveled appearance, at a loss for what to do.

Even on her hair, there was a spiderweb picked up from some unknown bush.

"It's fine, I have a hero who can cleanse you," Su Yu said, leading Bai Xiaowei up the mountain.

"Oh?"

Bai Xiaowei's eyes lit up. "Is it that elf beauty? Does she know Elemental Spells?"

As she asked, her step stumbled,

having just walked a whole day, her calves were sore to death,

and climbing the mountain at this point had exhausted her strength.

Su Yu quickly supported Bai Xiaowei, frowning slightly.

"Shall I carry you on my back?"

"Then... thank you."
