Mu Yuan clicked to view Dead Bone’s panel.

After a night of cultivation, Emperor Dead Bone had leveled up by one, and was now at Level 4 of Zero-order.

“A standard soldier would typically take about a whole day to rise from level 3 to level 4, but Dead Bone only reached level 3 yesterday afternoon.”

“He’s leveling up faster than usual, and now even quicker.”

“As expected, after evolving to a Rare One-Star, Dead Bone’s leveling speed has significantly increased.”

Only the speed was boosted, the consumption of Soul Sand couldn’t be saved even by half a point.

But this was still something many players… no, many Whales players dream of.

At this moment, Dead Bone could easily slay the Big Goblin from a distance of two hundred meters.

Mu Yuan looked at the Goblin Camp on the map and shook his head after thinking for a while.

“Not good.”

“Right now, Dead Bone could indeed lead some Skeleton Soldiers and Little Skeletons to capture this camp.”

“But why not wait a little longer, wait for more Skeleton Soldiers to evolve, and then crush the Goblin Camp with absolute advantage?”

Of course, the Goblin Camp was too close to his territory, presenting a troublesome threat that he needed to get rid of as soon as possible.

Mu Yuan hasn’t forgotten the vengeance of the Goblin’s raid on his small territory last night.

The Goblin’s demise was close at hand.

…

If Dead Bone wanted to continue to evolve, it requires a full 25 Evolution Points.

In short, it would be hard for Dead Bone to obtain another new form, so Mu Yuan shifted his focus to evolving more Skeleton Soldiers.

Little Skeletons were somewhat average among the One-star soldiers, however, Skeleton Soldiers were the cream of the crop within the three-star level.

They were fearless, they were quite versatile.

Mu Yuan’s own Skeletons even had the Cleave skill, defeating soldiers at one or two, or even two to three levels higher of the same star level, wasn’t a problem.

“Today is the third day in the game, Bone Two, under the guidance of Dead Bone, has finally grasped some understanding of Cleave… It might be able to learn this skill within today.”

“If so, it would bolster my territory.”

Mu Yuan whispered the count of Evolution Points.

He accumulated over two units of Evolution Points early in the morning and smoothly evolved two more Skeleton Soldiers. Named them ‘Bone Four’ and ‘Bone Five’ according to the convention.

The Skeleton Soldier squad was gradually growing.

But the bad news was that, Mu Yuan’s ‘game exploit’ plan had failed.

He tried to take away Little Skeleton’s rusty knife before evolution, the knife wasn’t optimized during the evolution process as expected, but resulted in consuming more Evolution Points.

You win some, you lose some.

You can exploit it when needed, but constantly exploiting it would lead to a loss.

…

A new day, Mu Yuan continued to lead his troops into battle.

He left Bone Two and Bone Four in the city, took Dead Bone and the other two, along with several Little Skeletons into the wilderness, continuing to wreak havoc with Dead Bone.

However, he avoided the Goblin Camp to the north, turned south instead, exploring the dark south and east, accumulating resources for the attack on the Goblin Camp.

In the dense forest, Mu Yuan cautiously and slowly explored the way forward, flanked by two Skeleton Soldiers.

More outermost were several Little Skeletons that could make a bolder presence and act as decoys.

Crack~!

A Little Skeleton stepped on the ground, breaking a branch and making a crisp noise.

That sound immediately attracted the attention of the nearby wild beasts. There was rustling in the bushes, and in moment, several Grey Wolves rushed out, then… they were surrounded by Little Skeletons and Skeleton Soldiers, who outnumbered and looked more dreadful than them.

Grey Wolves: “Σ(?д?lll)”

They expired peacefully.

Gathering all the dropped Soul Sand quickly, Mu Yuan swiftly changed their position. He was getting more and more adept in carrying out this operation.

He was constantly switching between looking at the map and the character’s vision, toggling between different interfaces.

Suddenly,

The scout, Dead Bone at the lead, raised his right hand in a fist.

“Is there something up? Could it be a powerful enemy?”

Mu Yuan wasn’t quite sure what was happening, but he trusted Dead Bone’s judgement. He immediately commanded other Skeletons to enter a quiet state.

He himself walked slowly forward.

No choice, the other Skeletons lack self-consciousness, and they strode with swings, not capable of tiptoeing over fallen leaves and branches.

Dead Bone could.

And so could Mu Yuan.

When he manipulated the game character on his computer, it only had limited control keys such as up, down, left, right, attack, jump, crouch. But he found that as his own consciousness fluctuated, the game character would also make corresponding movements.

For example, flicking Little Skeleton’s forehead with his finger.

For example, quietly separating the bushes, holding his breath, and inching forward bit by bit.

Soon, Mu Yuan arrived at the Emperor Dead Bone’s side, looking through the gaps between the leaves in the direction it pointed.

His eyes widened.

“This is…”

A tower tens of meters high and filled with a sense of historical vicissitudes is half hidden in the dense forest in the distance.

There’s a huge hole at the top of the tower. The outer stone walls are covered with moss and vines, but even so, Mu Yuan can still faintly see the exquisite carvings on the outer part of the tower, and the gems scattered among them, even if they have faded, still seem extraordinary.

“This is an ancient building.”

“But why would there be such a building, filled with traces of civilization, deep in the wilderness?”

After being influenced by the forum and the Players Association, Mu Yuan was no longer a complete newbie.

The Eternal Continent did have countries and civilizations, but they were located in the heart of the continent. The location where new lords like them were born was outside of civilization, a barren zone full of monsters and rarely touched by humans.

However, because the new lords were located in the wilderness, their surrounding areas were undeveloped, and treasures were scattered everywhere.

In contrast, many old players who stayed in the heartland of human civilization couldn’t get much Soul Sand or Remnant Souls after a month of hard work.

It was dangerous for new lords and it was difficult for them to pass the trials.

But from another perspective, if more and more new lords could establish their domains, it would mean that human civilization has taken another step into the vast wilderness, gaining more strategic depth.

In such a barren and scarcely populated area, the presence of a tower full of historical flavor was quite surprising.

Of course, the initial arrival of the players in the broken village wouldn’t count as traces of civilization.

This was the ‘Starting Point’ that all new players had.

The northern architecture built by the goblins, full of primitive style, also couldn’t be considered as civilization.

“There’s a rumor that a very brilliant ancient civilization once existed on the Eternal Continent, but it was later destroyed by a catastrophe. Then came the story of players being chosen by the will of the world and then rebuilding civilization in the Eternal World.”

“Of course, this is just a legend, its authenticity remains to be verified.”

But having a civilized building deep in the wilderness, Mu Yuan of course had the idea to explore it.

Perhaps he could find valuable treasures.

Some old players also concluded that the more peculiar the place, the more likely it is to contain high-level treasures.

But at the same time, such places often contain great dangers.

Thus, Mu Yuan had no impulse to approach it.

He looked at Emperor Dead Bone.

Emperor Dead Bone whispered to him in clicks.

Soon, Mu Yuan found the target pointed out by Emperor Dead Bone —— a creature that looked like a statue, with a grey and black body, a grim face, and a pair of bat-like wings folded behind it.

It seemed dead, but Emperor Dead Bone considered it to be alive, and quite tricky to deal with.

If there are not ten or dozens of Skeleton Warriors throwing Bone Spears at the same time, it suggested not to attack.

Extremely cautious.jpg!

Mu Yuan also looked very serious.

He was too far away to get information about the distant statue monster at this time, but Mu Yuan, who had already paid for information materials like ‘Compendium of Common Monsters’, ‘Monster Illustrated Handbook’ etc, recognized the monster in front of him at a glance.

The legendary Rare Level monster: Gargoyle!

And there’s more than one.

“One, two, three… at least eight gargoyles.”

“They are at the Rare Level, and their levels might even be at the Professional level, I can’t afford to provoke them, I absolutely can’t.”

“Why are there such strong monsters near a new lord’s territory? This is unreasonable!”

“Time to run!”

Mu Yuan followed his inner choice and quickly retreated.

He was drooling over the broken tower guarded by the Gargoyles, but he knew more about the terror of the Gargoyles. It was clear that there wouldn’t be such powerful monsters near a normal new lord’s territory.

The Eternal World is not really a game after all, and all kinds of accidents occur.

Sometimes even veteran players would die for no reason.

Players who encountered accidents could only chalk it up to bad luck.

The Gargoyles seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep, but Mu Yuan had no intention of testing them, he left decisively.

He marked this area with a red “×” on the map. He would settle this account later.

“Compared to these extremely terrifying Gargoyles, the Big Goblins and the like are absolutely like sheep-level monsters.”

“Sure enough, the waters of the Eternal Continent are deep. Let’s go deal with the Goblin Camp that we can handle.”

Emperor Dead Bone nodded in agreement.
