Chapter 407: The Gradual Transformation of Strength
Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!
The little hedgehog was dancing and shouting as it spilled out everything it knew.
“From the third wave to the tenth wave of monster attacks, the Dark Evil Tiger might appear? Randomly attacking the surrounding territories?”
When Li Xuan heard this, he frowned.
The Dark Evil Tiger was not simple. According to the little hedgehog’s intelligence, territories below Level 5 could not withstand the attack of the Dark Evil Tiger.
Even Li Xuan would be instantly killed by the Dark Evil Tiger. There was nothing he could do. The Dark Evil Tiger was an elite boss. At this stage, no one could afford to provoke it.
Li Xuan was naturally concerned about such an enemy. However, he considered that the first wave of monster attacks had yet to begin.
With his leveling speed, he might be strong enough to kill the Dark Evil Tiger when the time came.
Thinking of this, Li Xuan stopped thinking about it. Instead, he secretly commanded the skeleton army to harvest Experience Points while following the little hedgehog to take advantage of the situation.
Time slowly passed. Soon, half a day had passed.
Lord Nancy held her long sword and panted as she held her right hand. A smear of black spread on her wrist.
“I didn’t expect to be so cautious, but I was still poisoned. Fortunately, I leveled up last night and mastered a poison resistance ability,
“Otherwise, I would have died here. I’m so glad.”
Lord Nancy was very glad. Seeing that the poison on her wrist was no longer spreading, she breathed a sigh of relief.
However, seeing that her two subordinates were riddled with wounds, Lord Nancy fell into a decadent state.
“It’s almost noon. I still haven’t found the water. What should I do? Should I ask my mother for help? No, I will never bow to that powerful woman. Absolutely!”
Lord Nancy gritted her teeth and held her long sword as she continued to move forward. In the midst of battle and slaughter, she entered the Low-Level Danger Zone and tried her best to find water.
They did not know that Li Xuan’s skeleton army had swept through both the 100-meter area and the Low-Level Danger Zone.
The danger of these areas had been greatly reduced, which allowed them to enter the Low-Level Danger Zone. Otherwise, they would have been in trouble.
However, the Low-Level Danger Zone was not simple. Even if it had been swept clean, it was still dangerous.
If Lord Nancy and the others wanted to reach the river, they would inevitably encounter many powerful enemies. In the end, they would fail and return.
Another two hours passed, and it was already past noon.
Lord Nancy walked back with injuries all over her body. Her face was full of bitterness and dispirit. She was completely exhausted and swayed.
“I failed. I didn’t find a water source!”
Lord Nancy, who was in a depressed mood, walked toward the base step by step. When she was ten meters away from the base, she could not go any further.
She could not bear to face her people. If there was no water, then they could not cook, and the people could only starve and get sick.
This was a heavy blow to the base.
Feeling depressed, Lord Nancy was about to say something when she suddenly smelled a faint fragrance. It seemed to come from the base.
Lord Nancy sniffed and confirmed it again. When she found out that it really came from the base, her eyes widened in disbelief.
“The smell of cooked meat? How can it be? There is no water in the base. How can there be the smell of cooked meat? Do you smell it?”
After saying this, Lord Nancy hurriedly looked at her two subordinates.
“Lord, we also smell it. It’s really the smell of cooked meat. It’s so fragrant, and it’s getting stronger and stronger.”
Captain Wendy and the other Swordsman gently sniffed and smelled the fragrance of the meat in the air. The two of them almost became greedy cats.
“Let’s go back to the base!”
Lord Nancy hurriedly called out to her subordinates and staggered toward the base.
At this moment, the three of them were covered in wounds. The wounds were crisscrossed, and bright red blood dripped from the wounds. They looked very miserable.
As Lord Nancy was always at the front, she was the one with the most serious injuries. She had been poisoned in five places. It could be said that she was in an extremely sorry state.
Even so, they still ran very fast. They even fell down and helped each other to run to the base.
When they ran into the base, they saw the cook working around the two big pots. They saw the Elves looking up at the big pots. They saw Li Xuan holding a water pouch and pouring water into the big pots.
Lord Nancy was silent. For some reason, her eyes became red.
Taking a deep breath, Lord Nancy calmed herself and ran to the cooking pot.
Looking at the fragrance of a pot of cooked meat delicacies, she turned to look at Li Xuan, the voice of the road.
“Li... Li Xuan, did you bring back the water?”
“Mmhm, I just brought it on my way back, here. Give me your empty water pouch. I’ll help you bring back some later.” Li Xuan handed over the water pouch casually to Lord Nancy.
“Thank... Thank you!”
Lord Nancy’s emotions became even more turbulent as she looked deeply at Li Xuan.
Previously, she had narrowly escaped death in her search for a water source, but she had failed. In the end, when she returned to the base, someone had already brought back the water.
This feeling of a bright future made her so excited that she wanted to cry. However, she was a lord, so she could not cry. She could only try her best to suppress her emotions.
“The meat is almost done. Let’s eat. I put Self-Healing Fruits and Detoxification Fruits inside. They can heal your injuries and detoxify your poison.”
Li Xuan saw that the meat was almost done cooking, so he scooped a big bowl and handed it to Lord Nancy.
“Nancy, you came back too late. I arranged for the cook to cook in advance. Do you mind it?”
“I don’t mind. From now on, your orders in the base are my orders. Everyone must listen to your orders as well.”
Lord Nancy nodded solemnly and announced sincerely.
“Well, thank you for your trust. Let’s eat,” Li Xuan said as he continued to fill the rice bowl.
“Okay!”
Lord Nancy took small bites of the food. For some reason, the food today was exceptionally delicious.
She felt warm, comfortable, and happy in her heart.
“Everyone, come over and eat.”
After Li Xuan finished filling the bowl, he called for everyone to eat. He only took a small portion and found a corner to eat slowly.
He had eaten his fill outside, so he did not have much appetite. He just wanted to put on a show and secretly check his level.

...
“I only have two levels left before I can change classes. It won’t be long now. I’ll settle this problem in an afternoon.”
As Li Xuan spoke to himself, he felt his soul grow stronger and stronger. The power that seeped out from within made him somewhat fascinated.
In particular, the unsealing of his various skills and the transformation of his skills caused by a large number of fruits made Li Xuan even more ecstatic. He felt that the entire God’s Domain was so beautiful.
At this moment, Lord Nancy carried a bowl and walked to Li Xuan’s side. She glanced at Li Xuan’s attribute panel and did not say anything. Instead, she sat down next to Li Xuan.
“Li Xuan, we encountered a fatal danger in the Low-Level Danger Zone. It was a two-meter-long black snake. It was extremely powerful. We were sent flying with a single strike and lost our weapons.
“The three of us almost died because of it. However, at a critical moment, a Giant Skeleton Tiger emerged from the darkness. It killed the giant black snake and saved us.”
“You often roam the outside world. Have you seen this Giant Skeleton Tiger? Why did it save us? Could it be that there are kind monsters in God’s Domain?”
After Nancy finished speaking, she looked at Li Xuan curiously. Her beautiful eyes were filled with curiosity.
“There are indeed some kind-hearted existences in God’s Domain, such as a kind little hedgehog. However, there are more dangers, all sorts of dangers. Oh, right, I have something to ask you.”
Li Xuan suddenly changed the topic, his expression becoming more serious.
“What is it?” Lord Nancy was curious. She immediately wiped the meat off the corner of her mouth and looked at Li Xuan seriously.
“When will the first wave of monsters attack the territory?” Li Xuan asked.
“Early morning the day after tomorrow!”
Lord Nancy’s expression turned grave. She was worried that the base would not be able to survive this crisis.
Based on what she knew, the first wave of monsters was very dangerous. Many bases had failed due to the destruction of the monsters.
