Currently, Han Xing's accumulated battle merit has reached 64 million.
He looked at this number with satisfaction, then glanced at his warehouse.
After a whole day of production.
The number of Blood Curse Antidotes once again surpassed eighty thousand bottles. Trading them all off would be a huge resource.
Just as Han Xing was about to trade off this batch of curse antidotes, he suddenly heard a system prompt.
"Your territory creature, the Big-beaked Bird has hatched successfully."
Han Xing's eyes lit up instantly, "The first batch of Big-beaked Birds is out?"
He joyfully rushed down to the foot of the mountain and then entered into the huge mine cave.
Before he got close, Han Xing heard a dense, chirping sound from inside.
The sound was continuous, just like thousands of baby birds, calling for their mother.
Indeed, there were actually thousands of baby birds inside.
As Han Xing walked in, he saw pieces of broken eggshells everywhere on the bird's nest.
Each newborn bird, with only a few strands of down feather, stretched its neck calling out.
This is what the Big-beaked Birds look like when they're just born.
Their long beak, half as big as their body, is their most distinctive feature.
The moment Han Xing stepped in, these chicks opened their mouths instantly, shouting out loud.
"Chirp! Chirp!"
"Chirp! Chirp chirp!"
The chicks' calls rose and fell, making a buzzing noise in one's ears.
Han Xing couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
Then, Han Xing also saw the attributes of these chicks.
[Big-beaked Bird (Newborn Stage)]
[Level]: lv0
[Attributes]: None
[Skills]: To be activated
[State]: Awaiting feeding.
Note: Please feed the Big-beaked Birds as soon as possible for their growth. Each feeding increases the bird's level by lv1.
"These things need Spirit Cores to upgrade..."
Han Xing couldn't help but twitch his mouth again.
Looking at the thousands of gaping mouths begging for food, Han Xing felt that he might not have the patience to feed them one by one.
So.
He opened the territory residents interface, ready to call for help.
...
A few minutes later.
Lanlan and a few other girls awoke from their dreams with puzzled expressions.
Hearing Han Xing's call, they quickly put on their pajamas and came out of their rooms.
They followed the location given by Han Xing and soon arrived at the entrance of the mine cave at the foot of the mountain.
Han Xing was waiting outside the mine.
At this moment, Lanlan asked drowsily, "Lord... my Lord, what's going on?"
The girls were somewhat anxious, seemingly not knowing why Han Xing had called them out in the middle of the night.
Moreover, it was a mine cave, a place that could easily spark one's imagination.
Han Xing didn't explain, instead, he turned and walked into the mine cave, letting Lanlan and the others follow.
As soon as they entered the mine.
Everyone heard the rising and falling, dense bird cries.
The girls exchanged glances, all seeing the astonishment and panic in each other's eyes.
"Lord... my Lord, what's inside?"
Beside Lanlan, a well-built female assassin in leather clothing trembled slightly.
As girls, they seemed to have a natural fear of creatures in such cave environments.
"Birds," Han Xing said simply and directly.
"Ah?"
The girls looked puzzled, not seeming to understand what Han Xing meant.
However, their confusion didn't last long.
Because they had already seen the giant bird's nest inside the cave.
And on the nest, thousands of Big-beaked Birds flapping their meaty wings and cawing chaotically.
At this point, Han Xing said directly, "I have a task for you, help me feed Spirit Cores to this group of chicks."
Lanlan then realized the purpose of Han Xing's call for them.
Lanlan quickly agreed, "Alright Lord, leave it to us!"
Her tone carried a touch of excitement, seemingly thrilled by Han Xing's first task for them.
Han Xing nodded, distributing 500,000 Spirit Cores to each of them.
For the first time, the girls were touching such an enormous number, their faces filled with obvious shock.
Before they could say anything.
They saw Han Xing had already turned around, took out a Spirit Core, and fed it to one of the Big-beaked Birds.
Han Xing noticed that after swallowing the Spirit Core, this Big-beaked Bird underwent rapid growth.
From its initially hatched head size, it quickly grew to the size of a hen.
Additionally, the white down feathers on its body grew denser.
At this point, a system prompt appeared.
"Feeding successful, Big-beaked Bird level +1."
Han Xing thought, "Just one Spirit Core from level 0 to level 1, the cost is acceptable."
Then, Han Xing continued feeding.
However, raising from level 1 to level 2 required feeding 10 Spirit Cores.
Lanlan and the other girls followed suit, constantly feeding Spirit Cores to these Big-beaked Birds.
In front of Han Xing, the chick closed its eyes, opening its giant mouth, seemingly anticipating Han Xing's feeding.
Han Xing tossed down one Spirit Core after another.
The Big-beaked Bird swallowed them like jelly beans.
A total of forty Spirit Cores were fed.
The message of the Big-beaked Bird's level-up kept coming.
Then, Han Xing found that this Big-beaked Bird had already reached level 5.
Apart from the level increase, the size of this little guy is also rapidly growing.
With a speed visible to the naked eye, it continues to expand.
It's now as big as an adult goose.
Moreover, its feathers are starting to darken, gradually turning into a dark blue color.
When it stands up on its slender long legs, it's almost a meter tall.
In front of Han Xing appeared the attributes of this Big-beaked Bird.
[Big-beaked Bird (Growth Stage)]
[Level]:lv5
[Attributes]:Power 15, Agility 17, Spirit 13, Constitution 16.
[Skills]:Giant Beak Bite, Rapid Assault.
[State]:Hungry.
Han Xing murmured, "According to the technology level of the Big-beaked Bird's Nest, these chicks can grow up to level 28."
"It seems they can continue to grow."
At this time, the Big-beaked Bird approached again, seemingly still expecting Han Xing to feed it.
However, upon realizing it could walk on its own, Han Xing grabbed it by the neck and tossed it in front of a large box.
Inside the box were hundreds of thousands of Spirit Cores.
Han Xing pointed at the Big-beaked Bird, then at the Spirit Cores in the box.
The Big-beaked Bird looked at Han Xing blankly.
It seemed to not understand his meaning, flapping its wings, ready to pounce on Han Xing again.
Han Xing grabbed its big beak and threw it to the side of the box, saying.
"Since you can walk, you need to learn to eat by yourself."
"Don't always think about waiting for others to feed you, understand?"
This time, the Big-beaked Bird understood what Han Xing meant.
It turned its head, pitifully burying its beak into the box.
Han Xing chuckled softly.
"Little rascal."
Then, he placed several large boxes nearby, also filled with hundreds of thousands of Spirit Cores, serving as feeding troughs for these Big-beaked Birds.
At this time, Han Xing said to Lanlan and the others: "Just feed these chicks to level 5, they'll come to eat by themselves."
At this moment, Lanlan and the others were surrounded by hundreds of chicks, already somewhat flustered.
Upon hearing Han Xing's voice, Lanlan quickly said: "Okay... okay, Lord!"
However, before Lanlan and the others could react, those Big-beaked Birds had already rushed over, snatching the Spirit Cores from their hands.
Lanlan and the other girls exclaimed, "Birdies, don't snatch, take turns!"
"Ah! Don't pull my clothes, you naughty bird!"
"Don't... don't bite there..."
The Big-beaked Birds, famished, were unwilling to let go, clinging to the corners of the girls' clothes.
Just then, Han Xing heard a strange sound.
With a ripping sound.
Lanlan's thin pajamas were directly torn by a Big-beaked Bird, revealing large patches of snow-white skin on her back.
Hearing the sound, Han Xing turned around and saw this scene.
However, Lanlan and the others, busy feeding the Big-beaked Birds, seemed not to notice.
At this moment, Han Xing cleared his throat awkwardly.
"Ahem, ahem..."
The girls seemed to realize something, looking at each other, then simultaneously looking at Lanlan.
Feeling the gazes of everyone, and the gust of wind on her back.
Lanlan understood what had happened.
In an instant, her face turned crimson.
However, Han Xing didn't say much, only reminding her: "Put on those leveled equipments, the Big-beaked Birds can't bite through them."
After saying that, he turned and left the mine.
Leaving the girls looking at each other in surprise.
At this moment, Lanlan clasped her arms, her face burning red.
Beside her, the other girls realized and asked.
"Sister Lan, why are you wearing pajamas out here..."
Lanlan quietly replied: "I... I didn't know this would happen."
"Besides, this is my habit... you guys know it, don't make fun of me..."
"I'm ignoring you all!"
Saying that, Lanlan buried her head into the grass pile.
At this moment, a female assassin couldn't help but comment: "You know, Sister Lan's figure is still so good, I wonder what Lord was thinking just now."
The other girls heard this and had mischievous smiles on their faces.
"You guys still talking!"
Lanlan was ashamed to no end.
...
At this time, Han Xing was unaware of the girls' antics.
He still had a few things to do.
That is, selling the Blood Curse Antidotes in his hand, acquiring more resources to build defense towers.
Today, Han Xing still sold them at the price of 30,000 Spirit Cores per bottle.
Similarly, they were sold out within thirty seconds.
Han Xing's mouth curled into a smile.
"Great, another 2 billion resources in hand."
Then, as usual, Han Xing used these resources to build defense towers, converting them into his combat strength.
After finishing all the work, Han Xing finally slept peacefully.
The next day.
Today marks the tenth day of the Blood Tide outbreak.
Since last night, the chat channel had been buzzing about how the levels of Blood Tide Monsters had generally increased a lot.
The previous Blood Tide, no matter how numerous, consisted mostly of 20-level monsters, except for those lord-level creatures.
