Chapter 210: Chapter 132: The Opportunity for Territory Development Has Arrived[System notification: The wall is being destroyed, defensive power is remaining at 99%, please repair with 1375 units of stone material.] [System notification: The wall is being destroyed, defensive power is remaining at 99%, please repair with 1500 units of stone material.] [...] At the same time, Zhou Bai received reminders from the system. Looking at the map again, it wasn’t just the walls that were under siege by the demon beasts; the number of demon beasts within the territory was also noticeably increasing. How did this beast tide come about? Just as Zhou Bai was about to ask, someone on the scene already posed the question. "What’s going on here?" "It’s related to the fact that the demon beasts within the territory haven’t been cleared out..." someone hurriedly explained. Hearing this, many people’s eyes lit up in an instant, "Can we really do that? If we deliberately leave some demon beasts, won’t we be able to attract a sufficient number of them into our territory at night, and wouldn’t our gains be even greater?" These people all thought of the same tactic to exploit the game mechanics. They knew from experience that, up until now, they had to travel a fair distance during the day to hunt demon beasts, and the efficiency had not been high. If they could harvest more demon beasts by simply leaving a certain number behind, it would definitely be a profitable deal! "We’ve been doing just that these past few days, and our experience points have been shooting up," said the person with an obviously proud expression. Zhou Bai, who knew the details, raised an eyebrow. Was this a unique situation that occurred only when the territory was damaged? However, after a few days, the wall’s defensive power had decreased by only one percent, indicating that the territory’s residents were not relying entirely on the territory’s walls for defense. This slight loss was something she could still afford. Compared to that, the benefits that could be reaped from this situation warranted more attention.

While Zhou Bai was contemplating, one after another, teams had already assembled on the scene and charged out of the territory to battle with Hope Village. Suddenly facing a beast tide outside of the territory, the former residents might have been at a loss, but now, almost instantaneously, they found suitable positions, quickly formed defensive lines, and fought against the demon beasts without hesitation. They had grown outside, and the people within the territory were no slouch either! Soon, more and more teams and individuals rushed out of the territory. After all, the items brought back from Bengela Town wouldn’t disappear, but if they were late to the hunt, they would miss out on killing demon beasts entirely. "Are you guys going?" Zhou Bai looked at Zhong Yongnian. Zhong Yongnian just smiled, "There will be chances later, today is better spent organizing." Tomorrow they could start selling items brought back from Bengela Town. Without having to say it out loud, it was clear that what they had brought would certainly cause a sensation in Hope Village. Additionally, he had to be ready with enough goods to respond to the orders from Bengela Town. While increasing strength was important, sometimes making money was just as important! Zhou Bai understood their choice and didn’t say anything more. After Zhong Yongnian led the departure, several other teams also quickly caught on and hastily excused themselves, though some people were retained by the residents to continue learning about Bengela Town. Once Zhong Yongnian and his group had left, Zhou Bai turned to O’Neill and the others and said directly, "Go back and rest! You can return to your posts tomorrow." "Okay." O’Neill and the rest did not refuse; they were inside the territory, and the Lord would surely be safe. "We’ll go rest as well," Ellis, who was nearby, also took the initiative to speak. Upon their arrival in Hope Village, they had become residents, and now that everything had settled down, they needed to take some time to discuss the future development plans for their Mercenary Team. He had a feeling that Hope Village would rise quickly! He must seize this golden opportunity! "Okay," Zhou Bai nodded. With that, only Zhou Bai and Ding Qiurou were left by her side. The two of them walked towards the interior of the territory while starting a conversation. "How was it? Did you encounter any danger on the way?" "There wasn’t much danger on the road, but a lot happened in Bengela Town," Zhou Bai didn’t keep anything secret but shared the experiences with Ding Qiurou. Zhou Bai was standing safely in front of her, and even though the journey sounded treacherous, Ding Qiurou wasn’t shocked; she still felt that it wasn’t easy being Zhou Bai, the Lord. "But now, you’re just the Acting Village Chief. When they arrive, intent on finding the Lord, what will you do?" Ding Qiurou asked. This world’s Lord identity must be really complicated. Zhou Bai said directly, "As long as I am the village chief designated by the territory, I can exercise all the powers of Hope Village, there’s no problem. If it really comes down to disclosing it, then so be it!" Their family was no longer the same as it had been before. If initially, hiding had been chosen to preserve their own strength and avoid unnecessary dangers, now she was more concerned with avoiding some trouble. The nature of the two was different. Hearing this, Ding Qiurou understood and felt much more at ease. What intrigued Ding Qiurou more now was the Magic Items Zhou Bai had purchased in Bengela Town. The next moment, Zhou Bai stuffed all the Orange Backpacks to Ding Qiurou like an overwhelming swarm, at the same time clearing her system backpack’s slots and storing everything into the Warehouse. After finishing all this, Zhou Bai said directly, "Mom, how about you work an extra shift to sort out the things I brought back? We can sell them directly at the grocery store tomorrow?" While the grocery store’s merchandise was still imported by the system from the Warehouse, Ding Qiurou could manage the products on account of her Warehouse manager identity; she was practically half a manager of the grocery store. "Okay!" Ding Qiurou did not refuse. Once she took over the items, she headed to the Warehouse without any hesitation. Watching her leave, Zhou Bai smiled and then headed towards the Lord Mansion. Neither the small beast tide nor the sale of goods from Bengela Town was the emphasis for what came next. What she needed to worry about now was the matter of the Bengela Town Mercenary Team and merchant team arriving in two days. This matter was the opportunity for Hope Village to develop rapidly in the future; the territory, it must be well managed!
