Lord: My troops can evolve indefinitely.

"Luo Xuan, I won the revival match with my elbow! I'm back!"

Upon seeing the information before him, Luo Xuan couldn't help but turn pale. However, since Zhang Lifeng was still in the mood to make jokes, it at least meant that the other party was not in bad shape.

Thinking of this, Luo Xuan made a phone call directly.

After a few beeps, the call was connected.

"Hey, Brother Zhang? How are you? Why did you suddenly disappear? I was so worried about you."

As soon as the call connected, Luo Xuan couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know the specifics. After I made my preparations, I left Falling Moon Territory and entered the forest. As I walked, I found that fog had risen around me without my noticing."

There was a hint of helplessness in Zhang Lifeng's tone.

Upon hearing this, Luo Xuan nodded silently. He was also aware of the fog in the erosion zone, and he hadn't ventured deep into it before, just to be on the safe side.

Judging from Zhang Lifeng's words, the other party's mysterious disappearance seems to be related to the fog?

"And then? Where are you now? I'll contact Captain Zhao right away and have him send someone to rescue you," Luo Xuan said.

"Don't worry, I'm not in any danger for the time being. In fact, I've turned misfortune into a blessing and regained my status as a lord."

Zhang Lifeng said, "However, I may not be able to return to the continent of Aetherland for a while."

Before Luo Xuan could ask any further questions, Zhang Lifeng took the initiative to explain.

It turned out that after Zhang Lifeng ventured deep into the fog zone that morning, he initially proceeded cautiously westward, intending to cross the forest and reach Luo Xuan's territory.

However, as he walked, Zhang Lifeng unknowingly lost his way.

After wandering in the mist for an unknown amount of time, Zhang Lifeng inexplicably found himself no longer in the forest.

Zhang Lifeng suspected that he had unknowingly passed through the abyss rift and entered the abyss purgatory.

Just as Zhang Lifeng was feeling somewhat flustered looking at the unfamiliar hellish scene before him, the Lord's Trial notification sound suddenly rang in his ears, making his expression turn peculiar.

There's not much more to say about what happened next, although this Lord's Trial was much more difficult than when Zhang Lifeng first entered the game.

However, Zhang Lifeng was no longer the clueless newbie he once was; he began his trial as a second-tier hero.

It's just that because it's quite difficult, it takes a long time.

After hearing Zhang Lifeng's outrageous experiences, Luo Xuan didn't know what to say.

"So what is your identity now?" Luo Xuan suddenly thought of something.

Becoming a lord again would definitely mean being at the first tier, but Zhang Lifeng himself has already broken through to the second tier. Isn't this exploiting a bug?

If the second-tier hero Zhang Lifeng were to revert to the first-tier lord Zhang Lifeng, he would have a significant advantage in terms of leadership value.

"Well, it's not as good as you think." Hearing this, Zhang Lifeng understood Luo Xuan's meaning and explained.

"I'm currently at Tier 2, but my territory is Tier 1. I plan to unify the two once my territory reaches Tier 2."

Hearing this, Luo Xuan felt a little better; otherwise, he would have really wondered if Zhang Lifeng was the protagonist of some novel.

The plot of the protagonist having his dantian or cultivation destroyed, then making a triumphant return after a fortuitous encounter, feels perfectly plausible.

"By the way, have you contacted Captain Zhao?" Luo Xuan suddenly thought of Zhao Wenjie.

"Don't worry, I've already contacted them," Zhang Lifeng replied. "It's just a pity. I was going to help you, but now it seems there's no way I can."

"It's alright, I've already dealt with the undead stronghold here. You've reminded me that I haven't told Captain Zhao yet."

Upon hearing Zhang Lifeng's words, Luo Xuan suddenly realized that he hadn't yet told Zhao Wenjie about the annihilation of the undead stronghold on the edge of his territory.

After ending his call with Zhang Lifeng, Luo Xuan called Zhao Wenjie again.

Luo Xuan first briefly explained Zhang Lifeng's situation, and after confirming that Zhao Wenjie already knew, he told Zhao Wenjie that his undead stronghold had been wiped out.

"That's the situation, Captain Zhao. I'm not in any immediate danger, so there's no need to send anyone else over."

Luo Xuan explained.

"I understand, but how's that Abyss Erosion Zone on your end?" Zhao Wenjie asked with concern.

The main issue is that Zhang Lifeng's experiences are rather unusual.

First, he lost his territory because of the Abyss Erosion Zone, and then he left the continent of Aetheran because the Abyss Erosion Zone changed maps and became a lord again.

Such a special situation made it difficult for Zhao Wenjie not to pay close attention.

"I don't know the specifics. I was worried about Brother Zhang's situation before, but I didn't go deep into the fog."

Luo Xuan replied.

"I understand. In that case, I won't force you," Zhao Wenjie said. "However, you'd better not make any rash contact with the Abyss Erosion Zone."

"I will report this matter to Director Jiang and ask him to make a decision on whether I can ask him to collect some information about the Abyss Erosion Zone."

Zhao Wenjie knew that even their company's internal database did not contain any information about the Abyss Erosion Zone.

"Thank you, Captain Zhao," Luo Xuan said.

He understood that the other person was still worried about him, which was why they specifically wanted to help him gather information.

However, Luo Xuan couldn't offer any substantial help at the moment, so he could only express his gratitude verbally.

However, Luo Xuan remembered Zhao Wenjie's help, whether it was the initial popular science and convenience, the subsequent dispatch of Zhang Lifeng to the territory for support, or the current help in collecting information.

It can be said that Zhao Wenjie provided considerable help to Luo Xuan in his growth process.

After ending the call with Zhao Wenjie, Luo Xuan checked the time. It was already the end of the month, meaning he had been in this ambiguous world of Earth for a month.

"Time flies," Luo Xuan remarked.

During his time after transmigrating, aside from some initial anxiety, Luo Xuan had a very fulfilling period, so time seemed to pass very quickly.

Upon entering the game, although he had promised Zhao Wenjie, Luo Xuan still planned to explore the forest.

With a concrete understanding, Luo Xuan was able to formulate a response strategy.

Upon entering the forest, Luo Xuan first passed a level-two timber resource point. After so many days of hard work, Luo Xuan had enough resources to continue upgrading, except for a lack of gold coins.

However, because Luo Xuan's territory was located in a very remote area, there were no other territories nearby that he could trade with.

Even the nearest Falling Moon Territory is coincidentally separated by a forest with an abyss-eroded area.

After taking Lilith back into the erosion zone, Luo Xuan felt something was off after walking for a while. He felt as if something was missing.

"By the way, the mist is gone." Luo Xuan looked up at the blinding sunlight and felt a little uncomfortable.

The hazy, gray mist that had been hanging in the air had completely dissipated.
