Chapter 1151: Chapter 1151

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival.

Before Elsa set off, Du You had already started out with a few griffins. The Teleportation Array over in the territory was still under construction; it wouldn’t be operational for at least a few more days. Furthermore, a large number of basic structures also needed some time to be completed.

As Du You made his way into the depths of the valley, he spared the Magical Beasts that were only fourth-tier, showing no intention to fight them at all.

Once he entered the uninhabited forest beyond the valley, Du You finally split the griffins up. "Spread out and scout the surroundings, take out any fifth-tier beasts you encounter. If it’s one of those that aren’t proficient in attacking, beat it half to death first, then leave it at that place."

According to the rules, if a severely injured fifth-tier Magical Beast was killed by a fourth-tier, although the rating would decrease and not yield the full benefits, the rating would still be at the peak of fourth-tier or fifth-tier, so the opportunity was precious. Of course, the precondition was that the beaten Magical Beast must heal for two days, otherwise, it would count the same as having help.

Similarly, the Magical Beast should not be left with any traces of one’s own unique magic or special powers, otherwise, it would also be considered as external assistance.

Watching the griffins disperse, Du You randomly picked a direction and flew forward. He opened his perception to the maximum, leisurely soaring through the sky on Xiaozi. Before long, the first fifth-tier Magical Beast had appeared.

With Du You’s current strength, an ordinary fifth-tier Magical Beast was simply no match for him.

Before Du You could take a closer look, Xiaozi released a Thunder God Ring. Du You saw a beast by the river, somewhat resembling a lion, trapped and bursting with its own power trying to fight against the Thunder God Ring. It didn’t take long before it was already injured.

"It’s troublesome without the tag prompts," Du You muttered. Since reaching the fourth-tier, the enemies that could be considered opponents no longer had tags above their heads; he couldn’t tell at all what species they were. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚•𝙣𝙚𝙩

After a quick glance, Du You said indifferently, "This guy is proficient in attack, can’t leave it alive."

After speaking, Du You then released a Dark Flame Arrow Array. The arrows, passing through the Thunder God Ring, were coated with a layer of thunder and lightning power, increasing their lethality. However, what Du You didn’t expect was that the lion-like Magical Beast suddenly roared, and a layer of red light burst forth on its body.

This layer of light flared up like flames, and a large number of arrows were actually blocked. Under the continuous assault, when the red light finally shattered, the lion only sustained some minor injuries.

"Ah, it has this trick up its sleeve, good defense huh," Du You acknowledged. In the same tier, that ability was already considered very good. Even though his Dark Flame Arrow Array couldn’t be precisely controlled, and less than one-fifth could hit the target, being able to block it with its own defense was no easy feat. Having blocked it, the lion was still significantly injured.

Without wasting words, Du You promptly cast a Disintegration Spell. The Spell instantly dissected the lion into several pieces, dead beyond any doubt. Securing the loot that burst forth, Du You continued to fly forward.

Turning on the sphere, Du You sighed, "The higher the level, the less likely it is to directly get equipment, and mostly it’s just materials, which is really frustrating." Of course, the drop rate would be relatively high if one were to kill intelligent creatures. But with high-level intelligent creatures, the repercussions of their death are too significant, and it could easily cause greater trouble for oneself.

In the following days, Du You kept roaming in the forest behind him, continuously hunting down those fifth-tier Magical Beasts. Several days later, Elsa finally handled her affairs and set out into the forest.

As for the matters of the Fox Clan itself, they were no longer any concern to Elsa.

Originally, Elsa didn’t expect those so-called fellow tribe members to recognize her. She only returned this time to seek vengeance and retrieve what was hers. If she hadn’t suddenly established a territory, she probably would have left after inspecting the Holy Fox Valley.

Upon receiving the news of Elsa’s arrival, Du You began to expand his inspection perimeter. Lin Yucha and Lin Yushi, the two sisters, were also to come help, but Du You discouraged them since they still needed time to condense their skills.

Ever since advancing to the fifth tier, this skill condensation had become more troublesome, and the importance of the Skill Hall had grown. At the fourth tier, the Skill Hall was only needed for skill advancement, but at the fifth tier, it was required for every level increase.

That day, as Du You was patrolling, he once again sensed the presence of a fifth-level magical beast.

Du You patted Xiaozi, who chirped cheerfully, then flew toward that direction. However, as soon as Du You arrived, he suddenly released his spell. "Don’t move just yet, let’s keep these fellows."

Du You saw a nest of foxes, white foxes at that, which matched the White Fox tribe perfectly. Leading them were two fifth-level foxes, who had yet to notice him, leisurely basking in the sun. Many foxes played around in the valley; it was a tribe, with a total of more than thirty.

If it were any other White Fox seeing this, they would be overjoyed, taking them as partners for worship, or bringing them back for domestication. It was also possible for members of the lower ranks of the White Fox Clan to venerate these white foxes.

Du You opened the communicator, and Elsa’s face immediately appeared, "Big brother, what do you need me for? I just killed a fourth-level magical beast, it was so exhausting." Elsa spoke, playfully acting cute.

Du You flipped the communicator, "Look, I’ve found a den of white foxes here. Would you like them? I’ll catch them for you." Seeing the white foxes, Elsa’s eyes lit up.

But to his surprise, Elsa shook her head and said, "No, don’t catch them. I’ll come over later, have your soldiers help me, I’m going to kill these white foxes." Du You felt a chill of cold sweat running down his forehead at the heaviness of her killing intent.

"Why? Don’t you like these foxes?" Du You asked, puzzled.

"I do like them, but bringing them back would be of no use, just adding two fifth-tier fighters. If we can kill them, we might get some nice buildings. Since these magical beasts are near our territory, there’s a high chance of getting blueprints from winning such a battle. If successful, the gains would be greater."

So that was it. That was quite rational, being able to restrain one’s desires and take such a gamble.

Normally, only adults would make this kind of decision. Du You didn’t expect Elsa to be capable of such reasoning. "Aren’t you afraid of failing and getting nothing?" he asked Elsa out of habit.

"Not afraid. If I fail, it just proves bad luck. I’ll look for other opportunities later. But if I succeed, then Holy Fox City will have higher potential and faster development, which is more beneficial to me now."
