After the fervor of the Immortal race soldiers, the topic in the [World Chat Channel] began to shift.
[Today is the ninth day since we descended into this world!]
[That's right! The beginner protection period has only one day left! I'm so nervous!]
[Nervous is an understatement! I'm terrified! Terrified my territory will be besieged by a beast tide!]
[The one upstairs is afraid of what? I'm the one who should be worried! My territory is right next to the nest of a giant flying beast. It targeted me on the first day! *sob sob*...]
[Don't cry, upstairs! Life goes on, and the fight never stops! I'm here to support you with all my might!]
[The most dangerous thing is still the beast tide invasion. This is a test for all billions of lords.]
[Exactly! Perhaps after the beast tide, a large number of lords will be eliminated!]
[I really can't imagine what a beast tide invasion is like!]
[Why bother imagining what it's like? What we should care about is when the beast tide will come and whether we can safely survive it!]
[Once today is over and the protective shield disappears, the beast tide could appear at any moment!]
[Ai! This is a rip-off! Why is the time so short? If only I had a little more time, my troops would definitely have grown stronger!]
[Are you dreaming, upstairs? Doesn't everyone have the same amount of time?]
[To be honest, most lords now are just trying to survive the beast tide! Only those with high-level or top-tier troops have the strength to resist the beast tide, and even contend for rewards!]
[Like Fairy Jin Xuan's Endless Wasteland, Forest of Elves, Bloodline Capital, Asura Territory, and so on.]
[How could you forget the great Qian Mo?]
[That's right! The lord most likely to resist the beast tide and get rewards must be the great Qian Mo!]
[These are all top-tier大佬 right now, their strength is too immense!]
[You're right upstairs! Only these lords are qualified to compete for that sole special reward.]
In the chat channel, more lords were discussing the crisis of the beast tide.
This topic completely overshadowed the Immortal race soldiers.
Regardless, today was the last day of the beginner protection period.
After today, the protective shield would disappear.
Following that, all billions of lords would be completely exposed to a myriad of dangers.
Without the absolute defense of the beginner protection shield, weak lords would be like meat on a chopping block, likely at the mercy of others.
The quiet and stable development period was about to end.
The road ahead was an incredibly cruel race for survival.
It required complete adherence to the laws of nature, survival of the fittest!
If one misstep were made, the consequence would be eternal damnation!
This made many lords feel uneasy.
Those who were most fearful and terrified were naturally the lords who had randomly summoned low-level troops at the beginning.
As time ticked by, their hearts grew more anxious, bordering on despair, leading them to adopt a "what the heck" attitude.
The [World Chat Channel] became their only outlet for their pent-up frustration.
Some poured out their bitter grievances.
Some cursed the unfairness of the world.
Some even mocked the lords who possessed high-level and top-tier troops.
In short, at this moment, the full spectrum of human nature was on display.
However, many also understood that they had to persist on this path.
Being despairing and stagnating would only lead to their faster elimination and a quicker demise!
If they could risk their lives and fight for it, perhaps they could still grasp a sliver of hope on the edge of a cliff.
...
Seeing these messages, Xiao Mo also felt a complex mix of emotions.
He closed the [World Chat Channel], walked to the railing of the pavilion, and looked into the distance with a hint of bewilderment.
Although he was confident that his Immortal-Demon battle team had the strength to safely survive the beast tide crisis.
That was all.
He wasn't arrogant enough to believe that safely surviving the beast tide crisis meant he could disregard the dangers on the Primordial Continent.
On the contrary, the appearance of that King-tier Black Python on that day had made him extremely vigilant.
It was fine when the beginner protection shield was active, but with the shield, which offered absolute defense, about to disappear, he felt a subtle unease.
This was not because he was afraid, but an instinctive reaction to the unknown.
Everyone, when they are not powerful enough, naturally feels a sense of dread when facing an unknown world and environment.
Even if this dread is slight, it can still trigger inner anxiety.
This was something that could not be ignored.
In such a situation, only by continuously strengthening oneself could this sense of dread be gradually eliminated.
Therefore, he had to become stronger!
Whether it was the strength of his troops, the strength of his territory, or his own strength!
When his overall strength was sufficient to easily kill that King-tier Black Python.
Perhaps then he could truly establish a foothold in the Abyss area.
Then, he would stand tall in the Abyss area, unafraid of the crises and dangers from all directions!
Exhaling deeply, Xiao Mo thought of that little brat.
He opened [Friend Messages] and accessed the chat interface with Dou Xiao Dou.
Through their conversation, Xiao Mo learned that the little brat had finished building his defensive walls.
His goblin team had also been armed with various equipment.
Furthermore, the strongest goblins had reached mid-tier fifth-rank strength.
The weakest had reached second-rank.
The goblin team had grown to seventy-two units in size.
Although the average strength was not above low-tier third-rank, which could be considered very weak.
However, the little brat's territory was protected by defensive walls, and the goblins were all equipped.
Judging by their current overall strength, successfully and safely passing the beast tide test should not be a problem.
Just as Xiao Mo was worrying about the little brat's safety and considering any potential loopholes.
The little brat sent another message.
[Brother, brother! I have good news for you!]
[Yesterday, after I upgraded the Goblin Home to a high-level territory, a goblin elder from this world suddenly appeared.]
[This goblin elder is said to be a goblin warrior. He said he would settle in the Goblin Home from now on and guard it!]
Xiao Mo blinked slightly at the message and then sent a reply asking:
[Goblin warrior elder? How strong is he?]
However, Dou Xiao Dou's subsequent message left Xiao Mo speechless and helpless.
[This... Elder said he is the most powerful warrior of the goblin race on the Primordial Continent, possessing low-tier tenth-rank strength.]
[He also said that he has issued a call, and during the beast tide invasion, more goblin warriors will come to help resist it.]
"Holy crap..."
Seeing this message, Xiao Mo directly swore.
Then he raised his hand and slapped himself.
"Xiao Mo, Xiao Mo! What are you bothering with? Does the safety of the illegitimate child of the Goddess of Luck need you to worry about?"
After muttering to himself, Xiao Mo felt a million mythical creatures stampeding through his mind.
The expression on his face was more like he wanted to cry but had no tears.
What kind of heaven-defying luck did this little brat have...
