Chapter 146

A few hours before noon, Cheng Yang arrived at Crane Summit . Once he did, Hu Zhuang and his comrades surrounded him .

They were in much better spirits than the day before . They must have killed quite a few monsters last night to have gained this much confidence .

“Hey, Ox, Liu Wei . How was your evening? Did you run into any trouble?” Cheng Yang asked .

“It wasn’t bad, but the situation here is troublesome, my Lord . ” Lau Hui reported . “There are too many monsters nearby, and sometimes high-level monsters will wander into our hunting grounds . More importantly, we didn’t have any potions and only Liu Wei for healing, so it was a tough night . ”

“There’s no good solution to that other than to keep moving forwards . ” Cheng Yang said . “After we build the Wall, focus on leveling up the village and rescuing survivors . If you can’t beat the monsters with quality, run them down with quantity . ”

“Cheng Yang, do you think you could bring some of the talents in Phoenix Village here for a while?” Liu Wei asked . “It would provide more security, and if you brought Priests, it would be safer and more efficient when hunting monsters . ”

“For now, we can’t allow too many people to leave Phoenix Village . Standard-Grade soldiers won’t be able to help much, and everyone at the High-Grade is tied up right now . Even you have responsibilities elsewhere . ”

Cheng Yang thought it over for a moment .

“Ox, since you volunteered and aren’t doing much, you’ll stay here . We can find the other territory Altar so you can level up and then give you top-notch equipment . Then, even if you encounter a Pinnacle-Grade monster, you’ll be able to defeat it . ”

“Can I bring my battalion here?” Lau Hui asked .

“No . Not only is it too dangerous, but they need to watch the Bone-Eating Ant Nest . However, I can bring Pang Sun . ”

“That’s fine, but does that mean you’re going to replace me?”

“The battalion will be fine for a while without you, so there’s no need . Once the soldiers here adapt, you’ll be able to come back . ”

Lau Hui agreed to stay, but he wasn’t confident he could deal with a Pinnacle-Grade monster . Even if he leveled up, his class wasn’t DPS focused . If a strong monster showed up, all he could do was run . The only reason he felt safe at all was that Cheng Yang told him the chances of a monster that strong appearing was extremely low this close to the village .

With that decided, Cheng Yang led the soldiers to Yicheng . Since they had made several trips already, the path was clear, and it was faster than before .

The lumber mill they found yesterday still had a lot of wood . The only troublesome part was that most of the goods were buried under rubble .

While the soldiers were uncovering the wood, Cheng Yang cleared the nearby monsters . Now, with Liu Wei as a guard, the soldiers would be able to work without him . This allowed him the time to search for the other Territory Altar .

Cheng Yang didn’t know where the second Territory Altar was located since Yuan Jianzhe hadn’t controlled it in his previous life . Instead, a group from another major city had occupied it .

There was a lot of tension between the two, so Cheng Yang never visited . But, he knew more or less where it was since there had been several small scale wars between the two villages .

By the time Cheng Yang finished clearing nearby hordes, the soldiers had made three round trips, collecting over a hundred units of wood . Once they did, Liu Wie built the Wall . With this, Crane Summit had nearly fulfilled the requirements to level up .

Now that the situation was stabilized, Cheng Yang left Liu Wei in charge and took Lau Hui to search for the second Territory Altar .

Lau Hui was much slower than Cheng Yang, so he was permitted to sit on Enlai’s back during the journey .

The faster way to reach the other Territory Altar was crossing through Yicheng since the territories were more or less opposite each other . However, Cheng Yang decided to go south of Crane Summit first then go around the city .

He didn’t do so because he was trying to avoid the city . It was because he knew the location of an instance dungeon near Crane Summit .

The entrance was around five kilometers away from the village, but since he’d run this dungeon before, he was able to locate it quickly .

“Yoko, did you see this instance dungeon in your visions too? Isn’t that basically omnipotent?” Lau Hui was dumbfounded .

“It’s just the location of a few treasures . ” Cheng Yang said with a laugh, “It’s not like I know everything . ”

“Do you know about any other Territory Altars then?” Lau Hui asked, full of expectation . “You never share anything about your visions until the moment before you reveal something major . ”

“I’m sorry to disappoint you, but I don’t . All I know is that they crop up around any medium or large city from before the apocalypse . Even if I didn’t know about the other Territory Altar here, the size of Yicheng would give away the presence of another . ”

“Do they always follow that pattern?”

“Not always . Sometimes a Territory Altar would pop up even if there wasn’t anyone around . ”

After that, Cheng Yang left Lau Hui with Enlai and entered the instance dungeon . Since it was an Easy-Difficulty clear, there wasn’t a reason to bring the others .

The world around Cheng Yang blurred before changing to that of a dense maze of trees and thorns . This was the Shattered Midnight Forest .

Fortunately, although it seemed like a maze, there was only one path through the instance . If not, the difficulty of the Shattered Midnight Forest would skyrocket .

Since there wasn’t a trick to the maze, Cheng Yang simply pushed forwards, killing any monsters he encountered .

To other groups, clearing an instance dungeon was a matter of life and death, but for Cheng Yang, it was as simple as waving his hand . For him, clearing instance dungeons wasn’t the hard part, finding them was .

Although Cheng Yang had found five already, that was because he already knew where they were . If he wanted to find any more after clearing the second one near Yicheng, he could only depend on luck .
