Hang Yu called Fatty to deliver food to his home.
He called out Bai, who was watching cartoons, specially opened a few bottles of Spirit Realm beer, and had a feast with Teacher Su and Dog to celebrate taking a new step.
Hang Yu used the remaining time to plan a Spirit Realm strategy for Su Yunbing.
His intelligence and prior experiences were all of high reference value, enough to give someone a significant lead.
Of course.
One cannot be too biased.
Hang Yu plans to pull a group of mid-to-high-level personnel into a group in the future.
To provide Spirit Realm strategic guidance and problem-solving services to everyone.
This can be considered a kind of executive benefit, and also a good way to win hearts and stabilize the team.
"Timeâs up!"
"Er Gou, Bai, get ready, weâre leaving!"
Er Gou entered the Spirit Beast Space, but Bai had no space to use.
However, as a favored, she could be viewed as an accessory, thus being brought into the Spirit Realm.
"Give me your hand." Hang Yu held Baiâs cool small hand, very soft and delicate, what they say about soft as boneless, is probably like this.
Of course.
Hang Yu wasnât taking advantage.
He needed to contact Bai to enter the Spirit Realm together.
The next second.
The gate to the Spirit Realm opened instantly.
Hang Yu and Hang Xiaobai were simultaneously drawn in, appearing at the Goblin Shelter.
Hang Xiaobai changed into a set of level 6 or 7 white gear, wearing a helmet, mask, and wide robe, her features were all hidden, and from the exterior, it was hard to discern her identity.
Bai didnât expect.
To return to the Spirit Realm once more.
However, Bai had no attachment to her old Spirit Realm home, she was purely following her brother for adventure and leveling up.
Other people logged in one after another as well.
Jiang Nan came over as usual to greet Hang Yu and Dog.
Zhao Ming, Xu Tianhua, and Chen Yu also approached Hang Yu at this moment.
Everyone seemed to have done some serious catching up this time back, Zhao Ming and Chen Yuâs progress was similar to Su Yunbing, and they were now level 7 experts.
Xu Tianhua was also level 7.
But just a bit away from level 8.
He was always the one closest in level progression to Hang Yu.
If he stayed too long learning too many skills, being overtaken by Xu Tianhua in level wouldnât be surprising either.
Chen Yu noticed a small follower beside Hang Yu, "Huh? Whoâs this? Why havenât we seen them before?"
Zhao Ming and Xu Tianhua were also surprised to see Bai, wrapped so completely in gear, having never seen this person before either.
There werenât too many people in the Goblin Shelter.
Only about a hundred or so altogether.
These hundred or so came from Wild Boarman camps, coming from the three major early camps, seventy to eighty percent of them were under the three leaders, with only a few like Hang Yu, Jiang Nan, Qin Mu being outside the team.
Hang Yu introduced, "This is Hang Xiaobai, a master I brought, whoâll assist us in attacking the World Tower this time."
Hang Xiaobai, feeling more eyes gathering on her, had her social anxiety flare up and couldnât help shrinking behind Hang Yu, looking like a shy little sister afraid of strangers.
Jiang Nan noticed Baiâs surname: "Huh, she also has the surname Hang, could she be related to the Great God?"
Then she suddenly remembered.
The Great God was supposed to have no family.
"Though Bai is my sister, we donât share blood." Hang Yu paused while saying this, "Hmm, her identity is somewhat special, not convenient to say more now, but youâll know in time."
Jiang Nan curiously looked at Bai, noticing her shyness and extended a hand: "Hello Bai, Iâm Jiang Nan, no need to be nervous, since youâre recruited by the Great God, you must be impressive, please take care of us!"
Jiang Xiaohua is a beautiful, cheerful, and friendly person.
Bai hesitated for two seconds before extending her hand, knowing a handshake was a human custom, and said in not-so-standard Mandarin, "Ni... Ni hao."
Huh?
Baiâs voice sounded soft.
She must be a young girl.
But whatâs with the accent? Is she a foreigner? Or raised in a remote countryside, thus doesnât speak Mandarin?
Zhao Ming, Chen Yu, and Xu Tianhuaâs focus was entirely different.
Bai hadnât appeared before, yet was suddenly here this time.
Thus, the three speculated that this person was likely brought directly from the real world by Hang Yu, but how exactly was this done? Once humans enter the Spirit Realm, shouldnât it be randomized?
There must be a reason!
Could it have to do with the Favored Contract bought last time?
When Hang Yu traded with the Mysterious Merchant last time, he spent a fortune buying a Favored Contract, which obviously caught some attention, so they paid slight attention to this contract.
Of course.
This isnât important.
Hang Yu is recognized as the top expert of the Wild Boarman camp.
For someone he calls a master, they must be quite remarkable.
"Letâs not waste time, we must prepare immediately," Hang Yu said, "Old Zhao, Old Xu, Sister Chen, the three of you, take a headcount, and then list out everyoneâs talent types and skills, make sure to detail them as theyâre crucial."
Grand Commander Hang gave the word.
Everyone immediately sprang into action.
Because there werenât that many people, and everyone was familiar with one another, it didnât take much effort, and Zhao Ming and others quickly reported back.
Details on the hundred or so peopleâs levels, talent categories, and skills were thoroughly reported to Hang Yu.
These people were elite among elites.
The weakest held a level 5 strength, with more than half at level 6.
Additionally, a few members including Zhang Xiaoqiang had reached level 7.
After hearing this, Hang Yu said, "Frankly speaking, our team is relatively weak, with a considerable gap in strength compared to the fortress we need to attack today."
When he said this.
Everyone felt unsure.
They all indeed felt it.
Progressing this far, everyone felt the strain.
The monsters past the Goblin Shelter shown general strength of level 7-8, yet the general level was around 6, equivalent to fighting above their level, how could it not be difficult?
"Thereâs no need to be disheartened, as long as we make tactical and methodological use, I have confidence to offset any deficits in strength and strategy, so everyone please follow instructions for every step of the action," Hang Yu continued, "Though itâll be tough, the gains from this journey are sure to be significant!"
"Yes!"
"We all trust Boss Hang!"
"Great God, rest assured!"
Everyone expressed their support for Hang Yu.
If it were someone else, maybe theyâd still feel uneasy.
Itâs different with Hang Yu, given his successful battle in the Wild Boarman camp, plus being a tough man who can solo an 8th-level Lord Monster, if even such a guy canât be trusted, who else can lead this fight?
The action began!
Hang Yu was in no rush to sign Spiritual Qi Contracts with others.
Everyone first left the Goblin Shelter, heading determinedly toward the World Tower, clearing five monster squads along the way, all of which were missed by Old Zhao and the others last time.
Two hours after setting out.
Everyone successfully arrived at the imposing World Tower.
For most on site, this was the first time witnessing the World Tower up close and they were shocked by its colossal majesty.
The World Tower stood tall like a mountain piercing the sky.
This magnificent towerâs surroundings rose like a hill, and at this elevated part, a fortress-like structure built around the tower, with high walls progressing layer by layer, looking like a solid fortress.
Everyoneâs emotions were hard to calm down.
For simply occupying the fortress would allow entry into the World Tower.
If successful this time, they could soon leave the forest and enter a broader Spirit Realm world.
