Lord: My troops can evolve indefinitely.

On his way home, Luo Xuan took stock of his current material.

Besides the remaining rare-quality Demon Spider, there was also a common-quality Skeleton Soldier and a common-quality Forest Spider left from the previous trade.

If Lilith is to evolve, based on the example of Azathoth, it should require 8 cards of common quality.

Even though the Spider card can replace four cards, there are still two cards missing.

"If it's only two tickets short, it shouldn't be a big problem."

Currently, Azathoth is very efficient at clearing monsters, and it doesn't take long to get two cards.

Back home, Luo Xuan entered the game and headed towards the eastern forest with great anticipation.

On his way home, Luo Xuan received a notification that the resource point upgrade was complete.

It's just that he's not in the game and can't view the information.

Upon reaching the edge of the forest, thanks to Azathoth and Lilith's cleanup, the once dense horde of spider monsters is no longer visible. Only after venturing deeper into the forest can one see some more.

Entering the forest and arriving at the resource point, Luo Xuan checked the information of the level 2 resource point.

[Level 2 Timber Resource Point]: Produces 2 units of timber per day.

Upgrade Requirements: 200 units of wood, 200 units of stone, 10 units of black iron, 20 gold coins.

After the upgrade, the resource point's production capacity doubled to 2 units per day.

However, the resources required for the next upgrade have increased several times over.

Luo Xuan shook his head, realizing that he still had too few resources at the moment.

Fortunately, this is the first step. As long as we capture more resource points, the territory's resources will gradually become more abundant.

It's a pity that no new unit cards have been released recently, so Luo Xuan's idea of ​​evolving Lilith will have to wait.

Arrange for Azathoth and Lilith to continue clearing the spider monsters in the forest, starting from the resource points and gradually moving outwards, ensuring the safety of the resource points.

Then, Luo Xuan headed north.

When they arrived at the ruins of the kobold camp, the gray wolf was already waiting.

Luo Xuan stroked the gray wolf, fed it some food, and then stood on a high place to look out at the distant wilderness.

As Luo Xuan had predicted, there were now quite a few wild monsters wandering around the wilderness, with skeletons making up a significant portion of them.

Luo Xuan stared intently in the direction of the bushes, instructing Gray Wolf to keep a close watch and report back immediately if anything happened.

Currently, due to the resource points that have just been captured, Luo Xuan's focus will definitely be on the forest.

Moreover, Luo Xuan's previous experience had taught him that the skeletons in this wilderness were beyond his current capabilities.

Therefore, Luo Xuan could only adopt the same method he had used to deal with the kobold camp—arranging for gray wolves to monitor it.

Fortunately, after several transactions, Luo Xuan's current leadership value cap has increased significantly.

It is believed that it will not be long before the combat power under Luo Xuan's command will be enhanced again.

At that time...

Luo Xuan looked at the bushes and the mountains in the distance.

"By then, I should be able to explore even further, right?"

. . . . . .

In the days that followed, Luo Xuan stayed home all day, rarely venturing out of his house, and spent his days playing video games.

When I get hungry, I eat the dry food I stocked up on beforehand, or I order takeout.

On the second day that Luo Xuan was diligently playing the game, he had collected all the evolution materials for Lilith.

Without saying a word, Luo Xuan began to evolve Lilith.

The same white light as Azathoth enveloped Lilith.

As time passed, the white light dissipated, and a completely new Lilith appeared before Luo Xuan.

Its originally burly and ferocious size did not increase; instead, it shrank somewhat, becoming about the size of an adult large dog.

The most striking feature was the large number of dark red magic runes spreading across Lilith's body.

The markings begin on the abdomen, extend along the torso and spider legs, and finally converge at the forehead to form a long, curved head with a blurred outline of a dorsal wing membrane.

Seeing Lilith's drastically changed appearance, Luo Xuan couldn't wait to look at its attribute panel.

[Unit Type]: Dark-Patterned Spider

Race: Demon

[Level]: Tier 1, Level 3

[Quality]: Purple Excellent

[Type]: Infantry

[Life]: 500

[Physical Attack]: 15-20

[Physical Defense]: 10

[Magic Attack]: 22-28

[Magic Defense]: 12

[Speed]: Fast

[Skills]: Venomous Breath (Active), Spider Web Binding (Active), Dark Pattern Demon Body (Passive)

[Demand Statistics Value]: 7

Lilith's stats have also received a significant boost, especially her magic attack, which has seen a noticeable increase.

In terms of skills, both of the original skills have been enhanced, and a new passive skill has been added.

[Dark Pattern Demon Body]: Demonic energy further condenses within the body and manifests on the surface of the body, gaining low-level toxin resistance and medium-level fire resistance.

Simply put, it grants damage reduction against poison and fire attacks.

Luo Xuan thought about the characteristics of the demon race, and it made sense.

After this evolution, Luo Xuan noticed that Lilith's eyes were much more lively than before, no longer dull.

This is a good start. Luo Xuan believes that as his troops continue to evolve, they will no longer need Luo Xuan to command everything and will be able to stand on their own.

However, after this evolution, Luo Xuan has used up all the troop cards he had accumulated and has to start accumulating them all again.

Fortunately, there are currently enough low-level troops around the territory to meet Azathoth and Lilith's daily monster-hunting needs.

Thinking about this, Luo Xuan couldn't help but sigh that everything in the world indeed has two sides.

What was the state of his territory when he first entered the game?

Let's leave aside the coastal areas on both sides of the southwest for now.

To the north is the kobold camp, and to the east is a forest teeming with spiders.

It's no exaggeration to say that Luo Xuan's territory was struggling to survive in a precarious situation.

Now that Luo Xuan has developed to a certain extent, what was once an obstacle has become a different kind of resource.

The northern area was explored last time, but was driven back by a large number of skeletons. Luo Xuan probably won't try to explore the north anytime soon; at most, he'll send troops there to farm monsters.

Therefore, Luo Xuan's gaze once again fell on the forest to the east.

When we explored the vicinity of the resource point, we were blocked by the mutated spiders that were entrenched there.

Now that Luo Xuan has cleaned up the demonized spiders, it's time to continue exploring deeper into the forest.

However, exploring the forest isn't urgent; we need to wait until Azathoth and Lilith have cleared enough safe areas.

Time passed as Luo Xuan cleared the forest and gradually accumulated troop cards.

On this day, Luo Xuan picked up the seventh spider card that had dropped in the past few days, then logged off to order takeout.

"After three days of continuous clearing, the monsters near the resource points have been basically cleared out. It's about time to continue exploring deeper."

Luo Xuan was thinking while waiting for his takeout.
