Rowling, who was known as the 'Goddess', was leading the troops she had summoned to hunt the cows on the grassland.
This was her god-given advantage. The cows here were practically harmless, and their reactions were very slow. The amount of food they produced when deconstructed was even more than the average low tiered monster!
Furthermore, the battle units she summoned were the kings of the plains, lions!
Their movements were extremely agile, more than enough to kill these wild cows.
"The castle has been promoted to the Intermediate stage."
Rowling looked at the new castle in front of her as a heavenly, sweet smile spread across her face.
Today, she upgraded her castle.
Through the food sold, not only did she gain a good reputation, she also obtained a lot of resources!
At this rate, it would only be a matter of time before she could upgrade again to an Advanced castle.
At first, Rowling felt that her speed of progression was not slow. She had probably already surpassed many Castle Lords.
It was not impossible for her to dominate the Endless Lands in the future.
However, she now felt how childish her previous thoughts were.
The Tier 5 monster meat that Gale had sold had completely crushed her pride.
Rowling's battle units were of the pinnacle tier!
Furthermore, she had summoned six of them!
However, because of the starting tier of her battle units, she could not even approach that Tier 5 monster on the prairie, let alone kill it.
However, under similar circumstances, Gale actually managed to kill a Tier 5 grizzly bear!
One had to know that a grizzly bear was much fiercer than a bull in the grassland.
Not only were the bears bigger in size, their reaction speed was fast and attack power was many times higher than that of a wild bull.
"Looks like your battle units are much stronger than I thought."
Rowling was now certain that Gale had definitely summoned pinnacle battle units as well!
The strength of his castle had definitely exceeded her expectations.
However, if Rowling were to find out that Gale's battle units were not pinnacle units, and were instead unique battle units…..
It was unknown how she would feel.
Of course, she naturally would not think of this possibility.
After all, in the Endless Land, having pinnacle battle units were already very rare!
Only those who were favored by the heavens would be able to obtain soldiers that surpassed the pinnacle!
Furthermore, that was only a legend, no one had seen it with their eyes before.
"No matter how he managed to hunt down this Tier 5 monsters, Gale is still worth befriending."
After thinking about it, Rowling sent Gale another friend request.
A talent like him would definitely attract the attention of many Castle Lords. Rowling had to strike first!
After a long time, Rowling saw that Gale still had not agreed to her friend request. Unwilling to give up, she sent over another request once more.
"It's going to be dark soon. Let's return to the castle first."
Rowling looked at the sky. With the current strength of her battle units, they could not wander at night.
The attributes of her battle units at night would be many times weaker than that in the day.
Without much hesitation, Rowling brought her troops back to her castle, Golden Nation.
Night fell.
The blood moon once again replaced the sun.
A blood-red radiance sprinkled across the vast and endless land.
Nighttime was when the monsters moved frequently.
Their strength had increased to a certain extent.
More and more monsters could be heard roaring from outside the castle.
Night had officially fallen!
Gale too called back his battle units.
He did not become arrogant because of the increase in their strength.
Gale was a rational person, he prioritized developing himself step by step.
In such a world, it was very difficult for those Castle Lords, who became arrogant after obtaining powerful strength, to gain a foothold.
Moreover, Gale did not think that with his current strength, he could hunt monsters without any scruples in the dark.
As night fell.
The announcement appeared in the [World Chat] again.
The content of the notice was the same as last night's. It was to tell the castle lords not to go out at night in case their battle units sacrificed themselves.
With the announcement, no sane Castle Lord would go out to hunt monsters at night.
It was difficult to hunt monsters in the day, but monsters at night were even more terrifying!
However….
There was an additional message on the [World Chat] today.
[Warning: Five days until the end of the protection period!]
[Five days later, you will face the first assessment—Beast Tide!]
[Successfully resisting the attack of the beast tide will give handsome rewards!]
[Whoever performs the best in the beast tide will receive a unique reward!]
[Similarly, a large number of people will be eliminated from the beast tide. Elimination represents death!]
[Looking forward to your performance!]
The [World Chat] at night was more heated than during the day.
Especially after seeing this announcement, it was as if there was an uproar as all kinds of information flooded the screen.
Even if one could only send one message a day, there was still a lot of information!
[F*ck, this 'activity' is quite risky!]
[It seems to be mandatory participation. One billion Castle Lords are participating!]
[This Unique Reward is enough for us to take action!]
[Comrades, our chance to change fate has arrived!]
[Person above, do you think this is a movie? Are you a king seeking to regain your throne?]
[No matter what, we have to take a gamble! Whether it's for the rewards or not, we have to at least survive the beast tide!]
[That's right, we must survive!]
[Based on my current situation, I feel like I'm going to die. I've gotten useless battle units for two consecutive days. Besides eating, they are only eating. They are even more relaxed than me. I didn't expect that in this world, I still have to feed my own family!]
[Mine is the same. The battle units I summoned were dwarfs. They are scared to death when they see a lamb, let alone hunting monsters!]
[What is this Unique Reward?]
[I don't know, but this is something that other Castle Lords can't obtain. It will definitely be good!]
[I just thought about it. The big shots who have the ability to compete for this Unique Reward are probably the big shots who bought the Tier 5 bear meat today!]
[I feel that Big Boss Gale is stronger. Right now, only he has the ability to kill a Tier 5 bear!]
[I don't think so. The other big shots might have killed a Tier 5 monster, but they didn't sell it!]
[The battle units of these big shots are definitely top-notch!]
[Tsk, so what if it's a top-notch army? This is a beast tide, what's important is not the strength of the army, but the tactics!]
[Let's work hard together. Maybe we can succeed?]
[Right, let's work hard together!]
"Unique reward?"
Gale's breathing quickened.
He knew better than anyone what the word unique meant.
"Only the person who performs the best will receive the Unique Reward."
Gale took a deep breath and suppressed his excitement.
There was no one who didn't want the Unique reward. He was the same.
According to Gale's hypothesis, he had the highest chance of getting the reward.
His battle units were unique and surpassed any Castle Lord.
However, he did not become arrogant.
Before the beast tide arrived, nothing was certain.
"I have to give it my all!"
