Once their levels catch up, they can also engage in battle.

In the future, with so many people contributing to a team and handing over 40% of their resource gains from battles, even if it's only for a year or two, that would be a significant number.

At this point, Cheng Jianyong asked, "By the way, didn't Brother Xing say he wanted to build a city? Should we also recruit a batch of people?"

Everyone looked at Han Xing.

Han Xing shook his head straight away.

"No need, my development path is different from theirs. I don't need to recruit a lot of people to collect plenty of resources."

Hearing Han Xing's response, Shen Yun was also a bit stunned.

Indeed, Han Xing's tactics are far beyond their imagination.

Being able to gather such a vast amount of resources early on is proof of his strength.

Cheng Jianyong also nodded and didn't mention it again.

The Sky Island continued to move forward.

A few minutes later.

Han Xing's expression suddenly tensed, and he swiftly drew his weapon.

Because in front of them,

a small wave of Blood Tide Monsters appeared, numbering around two or three hundred.

At this moment, these Blood Tide Monsters were attacking a survivor's Sky Island.

The area of that Sky Island wasn't very large, only a few thousand square meters.

Han Xing's current vision was excellent; he could see the battle on that Sky Island from several kilometers away.

On the open ground, there were hundreds of corpses, some human, some of the monsters.

At this point, only seven or eight survivors remained on that territory, surrounding a Lord's Cottage and engaging in the final defensive battle.

However, their eyes revealed a deep despair and fear.

Most of their companions were dead, and the Lord's Cottage's defense value was draining away like water.

It seemed they were about to be overrun.

Zhang Lianmeng and Su Xiaoyang both looked at Han Xing.

Everyone knew that Han Xing wasn't the type to meddle in others' affairs unnecessarily.

But to watch those people die with open eyes, it was still a bit hard to bear.

Zhang Lianmeng tentatively asked, "Brother Xing... Brother Xing, can we save them?"

After she spoke, everyone turned to Han Xing, seemingly waiting for his decision.

Han Xing nodded, "We can."

Seeing him agree, not only Zhang Lianmeng but everyone else also breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, even if they didn't say anything, Han Xing would have intervened.

This wasn't about being a Saint.

Because for him, killing a few hundred mutated monsters was just a matter of convenience, at most a bit wasteful with the giant crossbow arrows.

Sparing others when it didn't harm his interests was a simple matter.

Moreover, there's the Battle Merit Store now.

Killing these monsters could earn him battle merits to exchange for rewards. Why not?

The next moment, he controlled hundreds of siege crossbow arrow launchers on the territory interface.

Five hundred giant crossbow arrows shot in a round.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The sound of the arrows slicing through the air rang continuously.

Two to three hundred mutated monsters had tightly surrounded that Lord's Cottage.

Suddenly, these monsters felt a powerful wind from behind.

Before they could react,

the arrow rain formed by the giant crossbow arrows had already shot through.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

The mutated monsters were pierced through, dying on the spot.

In one wave, at least more than two hundred mutated monsters were killed.

The injured mutated monsters panicked and flew towards the sky,

The remaining survivors in the Lord's Cottage looked dazed, seemingly not understanding why these monsters suddenly died.

When they saw the massive island in the distance, they couldn't help being overjoyed.

They realized that someone came to save them!

At this moment, Han Xing also received a system notification.

[Killed Blood Tide Monsters*243, gained 257 Battle Merit points.]

Over two hundred battle merits, not bad.

The few rescued survivors were full of excitement, seemingly wanting to speak with Han Xing.

The Sky Island slowly approached them.

But Han Xing was in a bit of a hurry, just waved his hand at them as a greeting.

Then he directly controlled the Sky Island to move forward.

Leaving the survivors looking at each other in bewilderment.

At this point, a male swordsman, slightly surprised, said, "He just left... didn't even give us a chance to thank him."

The others were equally puzzled.

"Maybe this expert doesn't want to be too high-profile, or maybe they don't care if we thank them," said a male knight beside him.

Everyone smiled wryly and shook their heads.

But anyway, they were alive.

At this point, they curiously watched Han Xing's enormous Sky Island gradually depart, saying in shock,

"It's amazing, it's the first time I've seen such a massive Sky Island, with dozens of layers up and down."

"Compared to his Sky Island, ours is just a few broken plots of land!"

Other survivors also sighed, "Yeah, not only is this Sky Island well-constructed, I think I even saw a city on it..."

"I saw it too, that city had numerous red catapults and several hundred giant crossbow arrows lined things nearly filling the walls!"

After saying this, a collective gasp of surprise could be heard.

Knowing that at the current stage.

Even a big group like Bathing City only had a dozen catapults.

And hundreds of catapults, plus more giant crossbow arrow launchers, is self-explanatory.

"It's terrifying... I really don't know where this great figure sprang from!"

Everyone was filled with amazement and confusion.

Not paying attention to these people's speculation.

Han Xing's Sky Island continued moving.

Along the way, Han Xing also encountered a few instances of minor Blood Tide Monster attacks on survivors.

Han Xing would conveniently deal with these monsters too.

Before long, many people in this area received the news.

That nearby, there was a massive Sky Island, and on it were numerous powerful attack devices, rescuing those survivors in distress.

And those survivors fighting against Blood Tide Monsters suddenly saw a gleam of hope!

After another half hour.

Han Xing also conveniently rescued several survivors.

However, when they were about ten kilometers away from the coordinates given by Wen Xinling,

At this time, on Jiang Heng's territory.

A few despondent survivors stood scattered around.

Wen Xinling, Jiang Heng, and several other survivors stood on the territory in disarray.

They didn't know that Wen Xinling had contacted Cheng Jianyong.

At this moment, Jiang Heng was looking pale at his status bar, with four layers of the Blood Curse.

A system prompt said that in half an hour, he would undergo a mutation.

Never would he have imagined,

that two hours ago, he was still the proud leader of the 'Jiangmen' group.

Summoning others with just a call.

One Blood Tide Monster attack nearly wiped out everything he painstakingly accumulated, and his team was almost completely wiped out.

After enormous sacrifices, he barely survived, only for the system to inform him that he had already been cursed with blood and didn't have long to live.

Jiang Heng stared blankly at his wounds, then looked at Wen Xinling's numb face beside him.

He suddenly asked, "Do you have the Blood Curse?"

Wen Xinling looked at him blankly, then shook her head after a moment.

But Jiang Heng noticed that this woman looked at him with resentment and anger in her eyes.

This made him furious on the spot.

He grabbed a fistful of Wen Xinling's hair, scolding, "You stupid woman! Who allowed you to look at me like that?"

Wen Xinling remained defiant, as her eyes glared back at him.

If it weren't for him tricking her here, her father wouldn't have died.

In her heart, Wen Xinling hated Jiang Heng.

Jiang Heng saw Wen Xinling's stubbornness and was filled with rage.

He grabbed her hair, yelling, "You wretch! Who gave you the right to look at me like that?"

Wen Xinling continued to glare at him defiantly, her loathing evident.

All because this man deceived her and got her father killed,

Wen Xinling was seething with hatred for Jiang Heng.

Jiang Heng saw the defiance in Wen Xinling's eyes and was beside himself with rage.

He grabbed her by the hair, cursing, "Wretched woman! Who gave you the right to look at me like that?"

Wen Xinling still looked at him defiantly, chest tight with anger.

Just then, the sky was filled again with the returning Blood Tide Monsters.

When they saw the few scattered survivors on Jiang Heng's territory.

Thousands of Blood Tide Monsters suddenly rushed in and swarmed over.

Before anyone could react, all the survivors on the Sky Island were engulfed!

Wen Xinling, Jiang Heng, and the others didn't stand a chance, and were gone!

The end.
