Zong Shen gently shook his head.

He decided not to speak further; keeping a low profile and making a fortune was the first choice.

The entire channel was still in chaos.

The newly opened so-called [Legion] function had not yet been mentioned by anyone.

This indicated that most of the lords hadn't been pushed to their limits.

Within the region, Jiang Yi was still very active.

This woman was smart and had a clear view of the situation; she seemed very interested in cooperation between lords.

She frequently popped up on the [Regional Channel], obviously trying to make her presence felt.

If it weren't for the distances between regions, she might have already formed a small team.

However, Zong Shen didn't mind; the core of everything was still strength, and all other arrangements were just side paths.

He spent over an hour flipping through the [Channel], and when he got up, the farmers and soldiers rescued had all arrived at the territory.

Currently, there were thirty-four farmers and thirteen Dogman Miners in the territory.

There were also as many as sixty-three soldiers, with the Wolf Cavalry making up half of them, numbering thirty.

They could form two and a half Wolf Cavalry Squads.

Additionally, there was a Blacksmith Uncle and the hero Windrunner, Wenresa.

The population of the entire territory had rapidly expanded.

Most of the ranged soldiers had been sent to the frontline by Zong Shen.

The soldiers responsible for expeditions in the afternoon were now inside the territory.

Zong Shen first called over Korby, assigning him to appoint a captain for the second Wolf Cavalry Squad.

The remaining six Wolf Cavalry were split between the two teams, each taking three.

Then, he arranged alternating guard shifts for the two teams during the night.

Two teams of Wolf Riders would take turns guarding, along with the Arrow Tower and Ancient Guardian, ensuring Burrow Monsters couldn't invade the territory.

After making all these arrangements, Zong Shen called over the Goblin Rippers who were logging a few hundred meters away.

The two goblins listlessly piloted the Tearer Mecha, clearly uninterested in logging.

They were genuine goblin warriors, each a skilled driver of Magic Energy Mecha.

Yet they had been reduced to woodcutters!

Though the Tearer Mecha was indeed designed for logging back then…

"Dear lord, if I may speak frankly, we've almost cut down all the trees around your territory!"

"Yes, yes!"

"Logging is tiring, logging is tiring!"

The two goblins came in front of Zong Shen, jumped off the mecha, and respectfully saluted.

Then they started chattering.

"Alright, alright, no more logging for you next time."

"You'll follow me on an expedition later."

Zong Shen said with a smile.

The expressions of the two green-skinned goblins immediately stiffened.

"Dear Lord! It's an honor to fight alongside you!"

"But we've been logging for half a day today, and the core of the Tearer Mecha needs to cool down, or it will wear out faster!"

The two goblin drivers, with their hands clutching their clothes, said somewhat apprehensively.

"No problem, if it breaks, I'll replace it for you with a new one. How about that?"

Zong Shen shifted his stance so they could see the Combat Puppet outside the Blacksmith Shop.

The two goblin drivers jumped up directly.

As sealed warriors, they naturally knew what this puppet represented.

"Alright, stop being lazy. The territory's glory will also be your glory in the future!"

Zong Shen said seriously, as these two goblin drivers actually still wanted to slack off!

The two green-skinned goblins quickly nodded.

"Lord, you're mighty! Your name will surely spread across the entire continent!"

"We hope you can let us pilot the Siege Breaker or Earth Splitter Magical Energy Armor in the future!"

Zong Shen waved his hand to signal the two to be quiet, then called over the four Water Mages and four Dragonized Spear and Shield Warriors who had just joined in the afternoon.

Rookies! They need more training and coordination!

Finally, he called over Luna and Aisha, who could be considered the territory's veterans.

They stood on his left and right sides, respectively.

One was the first Tier Four Soldier in the territory.

The other was the absolute high-end power in the territory, capable of summoning the Holy Spirit to turn the tide of battle.

Twelve soldiers in total, along with Zong Shen himself, formed tonight's hunting squad.

At this moment, his points had surpassed 2200 points.

"Let's go, we'll head north from the territory and fight to the frontline positions."

"Then we'll start slaying the Burrow Monsters near the frontline positions!"

Zong Shen clarified the hunting route this time.

Staying in the territory, no matter how much calculation was done, couldn't compare to venturing out personally.

Only by personally observing the external situation can one understand the most real conditions.

"Be sure to avoid those plague areas!"

"Once you get sick, it will have a big impact on your body."

Zong Shen instructed once more.

He opened [Manufacturing] and crafted a dozen or so [Simple Torches].

He kept a dozen in the Storage Grid as spares.

These torches were basic manufactured items, considered simple items, with limited effect.

They could only burn for thirty to forty minutes at most, with lots of smoke and little brightness.

Unlike the ones previously obtained in the mines, which had fuel-wrapped heads that could burn for several hours with high brightness and low smoke.

What he made himself would have to do.

Zong Shen lit five torches on the stove and handed them out.

The entire team headed north.

A small team of a dozen wasn't massive.

But it stood out in the wild night.

Luna, being the Dark Night Female Hunter King, led at the front riding her Black Panther.

In the middle were the four Gun and Shield Warriors, followed by the four Water Mages.

Zong Shen, Aisha, and the two Goblin Rippers walked at the back.

The torchlight in the wilderness was like tiny fireflies dotting the landscape.

Within a one-kilometer radius of the territory, there weren't many Burrow Monsters.

Only a couple of small threats that were quickly eliminated.

Once outside the one-kilometer range, the density of wandering Burrow Monsters increased sharply.

Many were groups of more than ten, moving in small clusters in the darkness.

These monsters seemed to be wandering aimlessly, but their ultimate direction was still Zong Shen's territory.

Occasionally some monsters would change direction towards the northern Burrow Frontline.

Some monsters moved towards Zong Shen and his team.

This was all due to varying degrees of attraction.

To the Burrow Monsters, there were too many sources of attraction, causing many monsters to wander the wilderness, occasionally taking a detour.

"Kill them all!"

However, Zong Shen wouldn't avoid battle, decisively waving his hand to issue the attack order.

He himself, along with Aisha and Luna, charged towards a group of about a dozen Burrow Monsters.

He drew the [Slaying Broad-Blade Saber] and started a frenzy of slaughter!

He fiercely slashed at the zombie in front of him.

With this blow, he almost cleaved the zombie's body in half!
