Boom boom boom——

The rapid heartbeat allowed Ryan to clearly hear his own heartbeat. Ryan squinted his eyes and looked at the lofty God of Candle, his heart filled with surprise and doubt.

He never imagined that the God of Candlelight was the god who stole the life energy of the Elf Tree in the Elf Forest.

This caused Ryan, who originally had some good feelings towards the God of Candlelight, to immediately drop his attitude towards him to freezing point.

Ryan calmly hid the bracelet on his wrist under his sleeve and looked at the God of Candle with a normal expression.

The God of Candlelight waved his hand, and the flames floating around him suddenly increased in size. Under the raging flames, a flame-shaped token flew towards Ryan.

Ryan reached out and took it, the God of Candlelight.

"This is the emblem of a third-class territory. After defeating monsters for a week, place it on the Mist Lord's token to gain access to a third-class territory."

"And in recognition of your contribution to pacifying the Tai'an Forest, you may choose a treasure of rank 2 or lower from the Divine Treasury."

Ryan nodded and calmly saluted the God of Candlelight.

"Thank you, Master Candlelight."

The God of Candlelight did not answer, but waved again. With the wave of the God of Candlelight, Ryan and Bluebird's consciousness returned to the guardian temple.

Ryan came back to his senses and squinted his eyes at the flame-shaped emblem that appeared out of thin air in his hand, wondering what he was thinking.

But the Blue Bird was in very good condition, circling happily in the Guardian Temple, chirping, and it was obviously very happy that the Blue Bird Territory was promoted to a third-class territory.

Ryan asked Bluebird, "Bluebird, what did the Candlelight God just say about the monster attack?"

The blue bird flew over Ryan's shoulder and answered.

"It's harassment from the God of Mist, and also a test from the Lord God of Candlelight."

"Once someone's territory is promoted, the Mist Camp will send people to attack the promoted territory for a week."

"This week can be considered the dividing line between life and death for those who are promoted to a new territory."

"If you can resist all monster attacks, your territory will be promoted. If you can't resist... your territory will be destroyed."

After the bluebird finished explaining, it saw that Ryan's face looked unhappy and thought that Ryan was worried about the monster attack, so it patted Ryan's head with its wings to comfort him.

"Don't worry, Ryan. Monsters promoted to third-level territories generally don't exceed level 10. Most of them are level 3 or 4. Given the current strength of our Bluebird Territory, we have nothing to fear."

Ryan nodded, put away the flame emblem in his hand, and walked out of the Guardian Temple.

He needed to tell Alves and the others about the monster attack.

…

High in the sky, in the alien space of the God of Candlelight.

The God of Candlelight remained silent as he looked at the place where Ryan had just disappeared. After a long while, a smile appeared on the God of Candlelight's face.

"Ryan, Qingyue...Hahahaha, finally, the deadlock that has been holding Qianji back is finally about to be broken."

After saying this, the God of Candlelight stood up from the majestic throne in a panic and looked down at the black earth in the foggy land.

"Vittorio... just wait, your death is coming soon. I will finally avenge her..."

Accompanied by a burst of flames rising into the sky, the figure of the God of Candlelight disappeared.

…

The fog camp closest to Taian Forest: the Scorpion Tribe.

The Tai'an Forest of the Bluebird Territory is located in the south of the Yellow Lion Plain, and the Scorpion Tribe is located in the west of the Yellow Lion Plain.

The Yellow Lion Plain separates the two.

At this time, the Scorpion Tribe had already received the news that the Bluebird Territory in Tai'an Forest was being promoted to a third-class territory.

"Sir, a territory in Tai'an Forest has been promoted to a third-class territory. Should we take action?"

"If we can destroy it and take over Tai'an Forest, we will surely receive a reward from the Lord of Mist."

The third-rate Poison Scorpion Tribe, in the stone fortress at the center of the tribe, a scorpion man said to the scorpion man sitting in the main seat.

The scorpion man looks extremely ugly. Although his limbs and torso are no different from those of humans, his head is a monster head with a sharp mouth, and there is a long scorpion tail hanging down to the ground between his thighs.

After hearing the advice from the Scorpio who just spoke, the Scorpio sitting in the main seat snorted coldly, and with a wave of his hand, a gust of strong wind was sent out.

The scorpion man who had just spoken was blasted away.

The Scorpion leader snorted coldly, "You must be getting senile!"

"Didn't you see the aftermath of the battle in Tai'an Forest a while ago?"

"The aftermath of that battle was a Level 2 battle. What's the point of that? They say there are Level 2 warriors stationed in Tai'an Forest. If we go over there now, are you really going to send the Scorpion Tribe to their deaths?"

The scorpion man who was blown away got up from the ground.

"Sir, I certainly know about the battle a while ago, but how could such a remote place as Tai'an Forest possibly give birth to a person of the first rank?"

"I think the aftermath of the previous battle was caused by those adults who happened to be fighting in Tai'an Forest, which is why it caused such a commotion."

"My suggestion is that we first send a small number of our tribesmen to drive away the tide of monsters and test the Bluebird Tribe."

"If the Bluebird Tribe is indeed formidable, we will retreat immediately. But if they are not, we will take advantage of their weakness and take over Tai'an Forest."

The Scorpion leader nodded upon hearing this. "It seems that Qiao De has indeed given this matter some careful consideration. Okay, let's do as you say."

Qiao De nodded, "Thank you, sir."
