I summon the heroic spirits of China in the infinite world.

"Comfortable."

Leon Lai never expected that a single night's sleep would bring him such a new milestone.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. After clearing the skeleton tomb, your summoner experience points are just one step away from leveling up.

The current experience level is 0/200, requiring 200 sword and shield skeletons to upgrade.

Holding the Heroic Spirit Card, he arrived outside the wooden house.

At this moment, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were fighting a group of green-skinned creatures with protruding mouths and long noses.

He was short in stature and carried various rudimentary weapons.

It seems that because the tomb's minions and skeletons were cleared out during the day, this time the attackers were a new species—goblins.

These monsters are characterized by their large numbers and their tendency to fight in groups.

There are currently three goblins invading the territory, forming a triangular encirclement and standoff with the two spirits Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

It's clear that they possess intelligence significantly superior to that of the sword-and-shield skeletons.

They no longer rely solely on brute force, but instead use simple formations.

[A swindler who sells his prize at a bargain price!]

After a brief standoff, Guan Yu took the initiative and wielded his Green Dragon Crescent Blade.

"Squeak!"

The goblin that was hit was sent flying backward, leaving a trail of blue blood on the ground.

However, it seems that evil-type special attacks cannot be triggered on it, so this attack did not kill it instantly.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"

It struggled to its feet, howled, and pounced again.

Inspired by this goblin, the other two goblins also launched an attack at the same time.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei each dealt with one, but they had to leave one behind.

The goblin that had been overlooked, holding a rusty dagger, crouched low and crawled up to Guan Yu, taking the opportunity to stab him in the back.

Although Guan Yu and Zhang Fei quickly ended the battle, it is undeniable that they both lost some health points.

The biggest loss is in experience points, as both goblins and sword-and-shield skeletons only gain 1 experience point.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"

Before they could recover, three more goblins entered the camp.

Compared to last night, tonight's battle was far from easy.

"This can't go on."

Li Ming glanced at the progress bar displayed on the cube; at this moment, the resurrection time of the [Stone Monkey] had just passed the halfway mark.

To revive immediately, you will need to pay an additional 10 cubic coins.

"Trying to trick me into spending money on in-game purchases? Not so easy."

Even though he now has a "huge sum of money" in his hands, he is still unwilling to pay this fee.

So he plucked a little blood from his face and quickly wrote that name on the Heroic Spirit Card.

[Would you like to consume 1 Huaxia Heroic Spirit Card to summon?]

"Yes."

[Searching in the Hall of Heroes of China... Summoning successful.]

After the light flashed, the card's design transformed into a gentle and composed man.

He had a face like jade, ears that reached his shoulders, hands that reached past his knees, and wore plain clothes while holding a pair of male and female swords.

It was none other than Liu Huangshu, the eldest of the Three Heroes of the Peach Garden!

[Liu Bei]: Tier 1 LV1

[Sworn Brotherhood - Passive]: When Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are within a 10-meter radius of Liu Bei, the three share the same health.

"So strong!"

Just seeing this term made Li Ming's eyes light up.

The entry for 【Liu Bei】 leans towards support roles, which is not surprising.

The key point is that the effect of sharing health is too overpowered, which is equivalent to combining three Servants into a whole with extremely high health.

They truly deserved to be called "the same person who died on the same day, in the same month, in the same year".

I wonder if all three health bars combined can withstand one hit from that guy in the tomb.

I think I'll pass for now and not provoke it.

[Thief, take this!]

As soon as Liu Bei was released, he immediately joined the battle.

Compared to the bravery of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, his fighting style focused on defense and containment.

Each time, he would appear just in time at the weak point in the formation, using his two sword techniques to parry attacks and protect his allies.

Moreover, after observing for a while, Li Ming figured it out.

The cooperation between Guan Yu and Zhang Fei during the day made him suspect that the heroic spirits were not simply following orders, but possessed a certain degree of combat intelligence.

Especially perhaps due to their background, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei coordinated their attacks so smoothly that they seemed like a single unit.

This also saved him a lot of trouble with micro-operation commands.

With the combined efforts of these three heroic spirits, the battle suddenly became much easier.

The goblins were all wiped out, leaving only a few scattered cube coins.

With the heroic spirits remaining on guard and before any new monsters arrive, Dawn finally has time to properly examine the gains indicated on the panel.

A 100-meter-long Level 1 wall and 1000 cube coins—there's not much to say about them other than praising them as a milestone.

The main thing is the new ability that this level 2 summoner unlocks: Enchantment.

According to the original owner's memories, enchanting is a special effect applied to objects such as cubes and buildings, and every Heroic Spirit possesses it.

However, there are obvious differences in strength, and under certain circumstances, they can evolve and improve later.

The weaker ones refer to those pure numerical bonuses of 1% or 2%.

Stronger ones are those with greater numerical bonuses or some special, unique effects.

To Li Ming's surprise, the enchantments on his four heroic spirits were all very powerful.

[Jun Ding Breaks Ten Thousand]: The stone monkey can grant immunity to the effects of natural disasters within a certain range.

[Benevolence]: Liu Bei can reduce the drop rate of monster cubes within a certain range by 50%, and increase the HP recovery rate of heroic spirits by 100%.

[Loyalty]: When the enchanted target is attacked by an enemy, Guan Yu's attack power increases by 20%.

[Intimidation]: Zhang Fei can reduce the chance of the enchanted target being attacked.

"Apart from Guan Yu, the enchantment effects of the other three heroic spirits are very suitable for use on the cube stone."

"Especially the [Jun Ding Breaks Ten Thousand], with it I will no longer have to worry about major earthquakes."

"This is wonderful! It's like a godsend!"

As for the enchantment for [Liu Bei], it requires sacrificing some coins, but it greatly helps to alleviate the pressure of battle.

Considering the side effects, it's best not to use it if necessary.

【Zhang Fei】increases the survivability of the enchanted target.

Unfortunately, when he tried it, he found that his cubestone could only accept one Heroic Spirit enchantment at a time.

If you enchant a new effect, the old effect will disappear; otherwise, it would be even better if you could add all of them at once.

"As for the enchantment of [Guan Yu]..."

Now that he was no longer afraid of earthquakes, he could safely set up the building card [Level 1 City Wall].

The problem is how to arrange the city walls; we need to think about that carefully.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"

Before I could even come up with a plan, another group of goblins broke in.

"How annoying."

With the monsters interfering, it's obviously impossible to set up buildings.

It seems he can only patiently wait for dawn.

Li Ming took out the map and began searching for the location of the goblin's lair.

It wasn't far from their campsite.

Tomorrow's daytime target for the cleanup operation will be these clueless bastards.
