Chapter 168: Northern Giant Beast Hunting Ground
After browsing the news about the new race, Xie Bai turned her attention to the next piece of information.
"A new explorable area?"
When she saw the name "Eastern Alliance of the Western Continent," Xie Bai blinked in slight surprise.
"So that was an unexplored area until now?"
Thinking of this, she paused to reflect.
She possessed a player panel just like the players did. Did that mean she was also subject to map exploration restrictions?
Up until now, she had mostly been active in the Aodu Empire and the Northern Territory—the two starting areas initially open to players. She hadn't actually visited the other two continents yet.
Furthermore, places outside the mortal realm didn't appear on the player map, so she couldn't use those regions to determine if she was restricted.
However, recalling the time she had been "hard-locked" by the Dungeon interface for half a second, she felt it was indeed possible that her exploration range was limited.
Then again, the idea of her being restricted felt somewhat improbable.
Xie Bai gently stroked the back of her neck.
【Boundless Floating Light】
Feeling that familiar aura, she felt a bit more at ease.
"Forget it. This area is unlocked on the player map now anyway. I'll find some time later to head further out and test the limits."
With that, Xie Bai dismissed the forum screen.
"Ugh... honestly, even after becoming a god, do you still wake up with a sore body..."
Xie Bai raised her hands, stretching her limbs slightly.
She then rested her hands on the edge of the bed, her expression somewhat dazed.
"It feels like... I haven't had enough sleep..."
She rubbed her eyes, her body instinctively wanting to lean back and lie down again.
Seeing this, the Two Little Ones immediately rushed behind Xie Bai to support her before she could collapse.
"Um... Sister Xiaobai, are you going to keep sleeping?"
"Is it not time to go out yet?"
Faced with their questions, Xie Bai rubbed her forehead, her voice sounding weary.
"Mm... it probably won't be that soon..."
In Xie Bai's estimation, "going out" would have to wait until she reached at least Level 150. Until then, she wanted to sleep a little longer.
With that thought, Xie Bai opened her attribute panel and navigated to the "Branches and Leaves" interface of the Reaper class.
【Branches and Leaves】
【Number of players taught: 9】
【Number of players triggered feedback: 3】
Seeing this, Xie Bai perked up slightly.
"Out of ten players, six actually managed to successfully accept the class?"
She was surprised by the result. In her original estimation, it would have been a success if even three out of ten players had made it. These six players had clearly exceeded her expectations.
"But even if they successfully took the class, it'll take them a while to reach Level 100. I should still be able to sleep for a bit..."
As she thought this, Xie Bai’s gaze shifted down an inch.
The next second, the detailed interface that met her eyes left her stunned.
【Xiu Ni Daba Lv.60】
【Class: Zehai Lord】
Xie Bai blinked instinctively.
When she opened her eyes again, the player's level on the interface had changed once more.
【Xiu Ni Daba Lv.68】
【Class: Eternal Drowning Calamity】
In just a few moments, this player had completed their third class advancement, and their level had instantly surged to 68.
As long as they rose another thirty-two levels to reach Level 100, it would trigger the feedback from the Branch and Leaf entries, allowing Xie Bai to level up again.
Xie Bai immediately looked at the remaining five players.
Without exception, every single one of them had completed their third advancement, and their levels were all in the sixties, poised to break through to Level 70.
Xie Bai blinked again.
"I remember... didn't I just give the Soul Proof to Maomao? Is she really that fast? These players have already reached Level 60?"
Under Xie Bai's watchful gaze, the player levels on the interface continued to climb. Soon, they had all broken through Level 70.
After Level 70, their leveling speed slowed down significantly, but the overall pace remained incredibly fast. If nothing went wrong, these players would likely hit Level 100 today.
At that moment, Xie Bai suddenly thought of Aisarakus.
"Taro Ball and the others leveled up so quickly before thanks to Aisarakus and those Undead Behemoths..."
Setting aside the issue of continuing to use Aisarakus as a hired thug, Xie Bai thought of a more critical question.
"Are there still that many Undead Behemoths left in the Land of Storms?"
She had seen in Taro Ball's memories that in the previous timeline, these Undead Behemoths would form a massive beast tide to attack the Northern Empire.
Even if Aisarakus hadn't wiped them all out and had chosen to leave some behind, the remaining behemoths should have formed a tide to attack the Northern Empire. Unless the Northern Empire had fallen, it was unlikely these behemoths would have survived under Brandon's watch.
"Unless..."
Sensing a certain possibility, Xie Bai closed the Branches and Leaves interface and turned her attention to the player forum.
Once on the forum, she quickly locked onto the livestream section. The next second, a familiar title caught her eye.
【- Cat Fur Hat Maomao's Game Livestream Channel -】
As usual, Maomao was broadcasting.
The scene in the livestream was none other than Aisarakus, transformed into a thousand-meter giant dragon, facing off against a pack of hideous Undead Behemoths.
However, in the face of Aisarakus, these behemoths were all acting terrified, constantly backing away. But the high walls that had appeared behind them blocked their path.
"Is this... a cull?"
A group of Undead Behemoths had been trapped within high walls, unable to retreat, forced to face Aisarakus.
During the stream, several behemoths lunged at the walls, attempting to destroy them and escape. But surprisingly, the walls showed no signs of damage under their attacks. They stood firm upon the earth, completely sealing off the path of retreat.
And as expected, every single one of these Undead Behemoths... could not fly.
BOOM—!!!
Aisarakus’s massive dragon tail swept across, instantly knocking down several behemoths that had charged forward. Under the crushing weight of his immense power, the behemoths suffered varying degrees of damage.
One behemoth, shaped like a giant wolf, was even knocked into a critical state by the strike, its HP dropping below 15%.
Before the giant wolf could even stand back up, a hundred-meter-wide torrent of water surged forth, slamming into its head.
CRASH—!!!
In the next second, the giant wolf's HP was completely depleted, and it collapsed into a lifeless corpse.
Once the wolf was dead, the owner of the livestream finally panned the camera.
"Did everyone see that just now?"
The familiar cat-ear hat appeared on screen, followed by Maomao's voice.
"As long as you join our Wheel of Fate and obtain the Reaper class, you can come to our exclusive Northern Giant Beast Hunting Ground! With the assistance of our Great Dragon King, you can slay behemoths here and level up at lightning speed!"
Her voice carried a hint of smugness.
"So? Is everyone tempted yet?"
