Chapter 63: The Territory Levels Up to Extraordinary*
Drake went inside the cabin and sat on his bed. He watched Maria as she sensually walked inside and closed the door behind her.
As Drake watched her, she sensually stripped her clothes piece by piece as slowly as possible. Drake was instantly hard watching her erotic performance but stayed on the bed instead of jumping on her to enjoy her performance.
Maria smiled more seductively as she saw his hard-on. She knew that he was barely controlling himself. She swayed her hips to a silent tune as she removed her clothes while teasing him as much as possible. Finally, she was down to only her underwear.
She slipped one side of the bra such that the mountain peak was visible but covered again and smiled at Drake teasingly. Drake looked a bit frustrated but still sat and enjoyed her dance. She teased him and removed the bra just before Drake pounced on her.
Then she walked to him slowly while swaying her lips. She straddled his lap and started grinding on him while still wearing her panties.
She kissed him while still grinding. Drake returned the kiss and groped her ass hard with one hand while the hand was behind her head and neck clutching tightly. Even while they devoured each other, she didn’t stop the grinding motion.
After a while, she stopped the kiss and showed a mischievous smile. She got up just after edging him for a while. She turned around are went to her previous location. His eyes were on the sensuous sway of her hips.
She stopped and took her panties down to her knees while still facing against him. She pulled them back up again and turned around. She saw that Drake’s eyes looked a bit dangerous. Instead of feeling scared, she continued her performance still with a seductive smile.
After some time, she finally removed her panties and once again straddled him and started grinding on him while kissing him.
Just as he reached the edge, she stopped again and showed a seductive and mischievous smile.
“Woman, you are playing with fire,” Drake growled.
“Maybe I just want to be burned in your fire,” Maria whispered seductively in his ear.
Drake finally lost it. He stood up while holding her and forcefully threw her on the bed. She merely giggled at the rough treatment as if taunting him.
He removed his clothes and forcefully turned her around. She still giggled. He took a fistful of her hair and shoved her face into the bed. Then he inserted his entire dick inside her without a warning.
He fucked her roughly for minutes as she moaned into the bed and came inside her pussy. Then he took it out and inserted the entire length inside her ass in one go. She moaned even harder.
The debauchery continued for hours as he filled all her holes with his thick white reward for her hard work in making him win the event.
…
Drake lived the next two days in the territory hedonistically. He didn’t do anything other than occasionally roam in the territory or fuck the various women in the territory.
He fucked more than twenty of the best performers in the event other than those he had already fucked. Sometimes taking one, sometimes two, three, four, or five, he spent the days rewarding his followers with his thick, white gift.
He understood one fact, no matter what the attitude or character of fox women, inherently all of them were vixens. That was their inherent nature. But that nature was suppressed by them before because they never thought that their ‘masters’ were qualified to enjoy that part of their nature. Only Drake was the first and last for them to show such a side.
It does not matter if it was the serious Chloe, the silent Ruby, the crazy Dawn, or anyone else, all of them showed their inherent nature as a vixen while serving Drake.
Even among the assassin squad, there were a few lucky ones who were graced by Drake. Because of their previous situation in the goblin tribe, they were scarred and particularly hated goblins and men. But Drake was the only man they willingly served and were his fanatics.
They were very eager when Drake said that he would grace them with his gift. They couldn’t believe their ears that Drake considered them worthy enough to serve him as they never thought themselves to be worthy of that and were happy to be just his shadow and destroy all his foes.
Each of the assassins who served him reached 99 points in loyalty and the rest were also at 98 points as they knew as long as they worked hard their lord would grace them.
The first day was still controllable as he did it in the cabin, but from the second day onwards, all pretenses were off the table. He fucked whom he wanted in broad daylight in front of others and those he chose were more than happy and excited to oblige.
Having an entire territory filled with women who would do anything for him had its advantages.
But that was Drake’s schedule. The rest of the residents, when not serving him, followed their previous routine of hunting monsters and training in the training room regularly. The only difference was that instead of going out together, they now ventured into small groups.
Previously, Maria had ordered everyone to hunt together to become as strong as possible for the event. But after the event, she removed the restriction, allowing everyone the freedom to explore the fog in groups or solo. This new arrangement gave them flexibility and encouraged individual growth.
During these two days, a major event occurred—they decided to level up the territory to the low stage, Extraordinary level. They had been eligible for this upgrade before, but doing so would have made the event more challenging, with no guarantee of the same gains.
Now, the time was right. They first took over the rest of the fog zone and added it to their territory. This zone had been cleared of monsters multiple times, but due to the event, they had delayed taking it over to avoid increasing the difficulty.
The conditions for leveling up the territory were not harsh. The only requirement was that the territory owner had to be at least rank 1, extraordinary, a condition Maria already fulfilled.
Every time during level-up, the territory was attacked by monsters as a test to determine if it was strong enough to advance. The strength of the monster group depended on the level and size of the territory. For this level-up, the strength and number of monsters that attacked were somewhere between the second and third wave of the event.
Drake’s followers stood ready as the monsters approached. The air buzzed with anticipation and the scent of fresh earth. The ground trembled slightly under the approaching horde, but there was no fear among the defenders. They had grown stronger, bolstered by the various mastery and stat fruits, including strength, defense, and agility fruits.
The Nimble Fruit Vine that produced the Nimble Fruit used to increase agility had been a significant find. Drake’s family had discovered it in one of the fog zones. He had informed them of the hidden rewards in the fog zones, leading to the acquisition of many valuable items.
Eleanor, Drake’s mother, had divided her loyal forces into two groups. One group fought the monsters within their territory, while the other sneaked into the fog zones to retrieve as many items as possible.
The territory they fought in was very strong and held out until the eighth wave of the event. The stronger monsters were defeated by the powerful inhabitants of the territory, and their loot had nothing to do with the players. Without a place to grow the vines, Eleanor sent all the vines and most of the fruits to Drake.
The Nimble Fruit Vine was a vibrant green with streaks of silver running along its length. The leaves were bright green, similar to the vine, with a silvery underside that shimmered in the light. The Nimblefruit themselves were small, oval-shaped fruits, roughly the size of a large grape. They were blue-green with a glossy, almost translucent surface, growing in clusters of tens hanging from thin, flexible stems.
Name: Nimble Fruit Vine
Level: Sequence 9, Peak-Stage
Description: Eating the Nimble Fruits will increase speed.
The plant produces fruits every three months, 300-500 per harvest.
After eating 100 fruits, the speed increase will be equivalent to the extreme speed of rank 1 of the extraordinary sequence.
Likewise, 200 fruits are needed for rank 2, 300 for rank 3, and so on.
Thus, a total of 5500 fruits are needed up to rank 10. After that, eating more will have no effect.
To get the complete extreme speed of a rank, the user needs to be at least that rank or above.
If the rank is less, the user will only get up to a minor speed increase for the next rank.
Because of the addition of the Nimble Fruit Vine, Drake now had all stat-increasing plants other than the magic stat.
After the monsters were defeated, the territory leveled up to the early stage, extraordinary, and its area expanded significantly.
The terraform crystals were used during the level-up so that the territory was modified seamlessly. Changes could be made to the default appearance of the terraformed land using fog coins.
Maria placed the volcano in one corner of the territory and modified its appearance so that lava flowed out from broken parts of the peak of the volcano. One part formed a large river of lava that flowed into a newly created lake, collecting the lava. Smaller streams filled craters with lava. The lava lotus seeds were placed in the lava lake and craters, ready to thrive in the extreme environment.
In another corner, the glacier stood tall and imposing. A lake was created near the mountain, fed by melting snow to fill it with ice-cold water. Frost lotus seeds were placed in the icy water, ready to grow.
The underground caverns were carved out meticulously, and the mindbloom vines were planted within. The caverns were cool and dark, perfect for the vines to flourish.
All these changes used up most of the fog coins they had collected, but the transformation of the territory during its level-up was successful. The rest of the plants were also planted in various locations of the territory, ensuring a balanced and strategic placement.
Small houses were built as an upgrade from the tents, providing more comfort and stability for the residents. The Greenwave Stone, a powerful Fog Artifact, was merged during the level-up. Its characteristics were now applied to the entire territory, enhancing the growth rate of all plants.
