"Ah!"
With a scream piercing the sky, the Level 5 Dark Demon Wolf had already struck the invisible protective shield fiercely with its sharp claws.
Although the crowd couldn't see the shield, they could see the wooden planks on the fence split apart piece by piece, becoming precarious.
The watching people's faces turned pale, feeling suffocated.
Could the territory withstand it?
[The fence is being damaged, defense left at twenty percent, please repair with 800 units of wood.]
[Dear Host, detected urgent situation of your territory, activate self-repair mode, real-time repair?]
"Yes." Just as the Level 5 Dark Demon Beast was about to strike its second claw, Zhou Bai responded hastily.
[Self-repair mode activated, real-time repair, please ensure sufficient account funds.]
[Note: Repair takes time, the protective shield may have vulnerabilities, please beware of beast infiltration.]
As the system notified, the money in Zhou Bai's account began to decrease rapidly, and the real-time repair mode started.
Thus, in others' eyes, the split fence continuously repaired itself, making everyone's heartbeat return to normal.
Just at the moment of their relief, other Dark Demon Wolves began to surge toward the territory like a wave.
"Act! Defend the territory!" With the shout of someone, everyone instantly snapped back to reality, picked up long spears, and madly jabbed at the incoming beasts wave after wave.
Because of this, many beasts hadn't reached them yet before being pierced by several long spears, making their blood bars drop sharply, then turned into a white light and disappeared.
Only when the front row was killed, the back row immediately surged up.
The countless number of beasts prevented everyone from thinking, leaving only one word: fight!
At this moment, the leading Level 5 Dark Demon Beast, even after two attacks, hadn't given up, focusing its attention on attacking the protective shield, clearly aware that the shield was the core of the entire territory, and only by destroying the shield could they enjoy the "feast."
This undoubtedly proved one point; the beasts were likely used to confronting territories, hence their deep understanding.
Yet they had only entered this Doomsday Game two days ago!
At this moment, combining the information obtained since the territory's establishment, a thought emerged in Zhou Bai's mind.
That was perhaps the world they currently resided in was no longer simply their original world. This world certainly possessed native territories, and the Newbie Protection Period might truly be there to protect them, allowing them time to develop themselves first.
Thinking of this, Zhou Bai sighed long; this Doomsday Game was too mysterious! So far, all information was unknown to her, she explored on her own, unsure if she guessed right or not?
Thinking, Zhou Bai returned to herself, heading towards the direction of the Level 5 Dark Demon Wolf.
"Where are you going?" Ding Qiurou suddenly grabbed Zhou Bai's arm.
"I'm going to deal with the Level 5 Beast." Zhou Bai stated directly, according to her guess, this Level 5 Demon Wolf was the key to this attack. Most importantly, she hadn't forgotten the system's words. Even if it could be repaired, it needed time; she didn't think it was a simple reminder.
The Level 5 Dark Demon Wolf, she had to go!
Zhou Zhengping at the side said, "Let her go! She can handle it, and she should learn to handle it."
Ding Qiurou, seeing Zhou Zhengping agree, didn't say much, her lips pursed into a line.
The world had changed; their daughter didn't need to be in the palm of their hand anymore.
"Dad, take care of Mom." Before leaving, Zhou Bai made a special request.
"This child..." Ding Qiurou's expression was helpless, understanding she was holding them back.
**
At this moment, at the location of the Level 5 Dark Demon Wolf, Li Xingteng also led a few people in attacking. They realized this Level 5 beast was the leader; usually in games, they attack the boss first, so they followed him all the way.
Unfortunately, the Shadow Demon Wolf was agile; their attacks always missed the mark.
"Captain Li, this Demon Wolf's speed is too fast!" A teammate looked at the blood bar of the Level 5 Dark Demon Wolf still standing firm.
Li Xingteng said helplessly, "Wolves naturally have fast speed, plus the level gap, we really have no way to deal with him; we can only prevent him from attacking the fence."
When Zhou Bai came over, she happened to hear this, and promptly said, "Uncle Li, let me do it!"
Suddenly hearing a voice, Li Xingteng turned his head to look, "What are you doing here?"
He knew Zhou Zhengping treasured his family dearly; why would he suddenly let her come here to take risks?
"I just broke through Level 5." Zhou Bai pushed back her Level 5 upgrade while glancing at her personal attribute control panel.
[Character: Zhou Bai]
[Race: Human]
[Level: lv.5 (511/600)]
[Identity: Lord of Hope Village, Hope Village Resident]
[Life Value: 592/600]
[Attributes: Constitution (6/10), Intelligence (7/10), Agility (7/10), Defense (5/10)]
[Equipment: Leather Armor Three-piece Set (Defense +1), Long Spear (Attack +1), Shadow Boots (Agility +1)]
This data should suffice.
"Level 5?" Li Xingteng looked at Zhou Bai incredulously; he was still at Level 4!
They had only gone out for a moment yesterday, how did they level up like rockets?
"It's my parents; they gave me the final strike in killing beasts, my Experience Points increased fast, so I leveled up quickly."
"Your parents really pamper you!" Knowing this, Li Xingteng sighed.
This approach was actually thought of by many people; however, who would willingly give their Experience Points to others, saying that when the other is strong, they would reciprocate, who knows if it's true or not? If the other party reneges, what can you do?
So it's best to always keep them in your own hands.
Like when he was leading his team out, he had to consider the level of his men.
"It's also for my safety; a higher level makes safety also higher." Zhou Bai said, and mentioned again, "The Damage Value of this Level 5 beast is too high, I'm afraid the territory fence wouldn't withstand it; better to solve it early!"
"Wouldn't it be too dangerous, do your parents know?" Li Xingteng said, glancing towards Zhou Zhengping and their location; he was leading his wife and the Guard Team against the attacking beasts, and then gave the last blow to his wife, clearly helping her level up.
Watching this, Li Xingteng felt somewhat envious.
He and his wife had divorced, she took the child to another city, not knowing how their situation was after the Doomsday Game, if possible, he wanted to find them.
"They know." Zhou Bai replied.
"Then let's deal with the Level 5 Dark Demon Wolf together."
"Hmm." Zhou Bai nodded.
Afterwards, the group directly went out of the territory.
Once they emerged, the Level 5 Dark Demon Wolf rushed towards Zhou Bai, opening its blood-filled mouth, targeting Zhou Bai's group.
Li Xingteng and his team split into two groups, one held the formation, while the other attacked the Level 5 Dark Demon Wolf.
Under their attack, the Level 5 Dark Demon Wolf was held back.
As for Zhou Bai, taking advantage of the opportunity, using the Shadow Boots to speed up, directly bypassed to the back of the beast, swinging the Iron Axe fiercely at the Demon Wolf.
With an "Aow" cry of misery, the Dark Demon Wolf was actually sent flying by Zhou Bai, the next moment, it fell heavily to the ground.
Visibly, its blood bar dropped by one-fifth.
Seeing this scene, Li Xingteng was instantly stunned, everyone watched Zhou Bai with changed expressions.
The attack power of Level 5 had increased this much???
But the next second, the situation suddenly changed; after the Dark Demon Wolf rose from the ground, it directly altered its direction, swiftly launching an attack from another side towards the territory.
Seemingly having pinpointed the defensive power value of the protective shield, it howled and even brought a Level 4 Dark Demon Wolf, the two beasts rushed toward the protective shield, with a group of lower-level Dark Demon Wolves following, charging toward the fence together.
At that moment, Zhou Bai understood.
The Level 5 Dark Demon Beast, whether intercepted by Li Xingteng or flown away by her, was just amusing them; it had always been waiting, waiting for those beasts to break the fence's defensive power, calculating the fence's endurance, finding an opportunity before striking the finishing blow.
"Can't block it! Retreat!" Zhou Bai loudly warned the people in the Level 5 Dark Demon Wolf's attack direction.
They heard and saw, hurriedly retreating.
As soon as they withdrew, the Level 5 Dark Demon Wolf and Level 4 Dark Demon Wolf had already crashed hard into the protective shield created by the fence, the attack power increase, once exceeding the fence's endurance limit, began to fracture the shield from the impact center.
[Fence has been destroyed, repairing, repairing...]
The fence began real-time repair, but the Level 5 Dark Demon Wolf had already taken advantage of the breach created moments ago, led the beasts into the territory.
At this moment, Zhou Bai's heart tightened tightly.
It turned out the territory was not absolutely safe even with a protective shield!
