Why is my territory in a 2D anime art style?

Ten minutes later, the energy shield restarted.

Sui An then slowly walked out of the house. The shattered wall in the distance had already been quickly repaired using the last remaining core material.

Not only that, the surrounding walls were also dug up by the shadow lizards and were on the verge of collapse.

Fortunately, as long as it wasn't completely destroyed, it only required replenishing basic materials to restore it. He spent a full 20 sets of basic materials to repair the entire north wall.

I don't have much else, but I have an abundance of basic materials. I currently have 103 sets, which I can't possibly use up.

After dealing with these issues, Sui An began to process his own energy core. Tonight's energy consumption was even greater than that of the second Blood Moon Night.

First came the nearly half-hour cleanup by the Shadow Lizards, then the shield was eroded by the gray mist, followed by the attack from the giant Shadow Lizard, the breaking and repair of the energy shield, and finally the cleanup.

The core energy has now recovered to 90%, but there are 121 Originium missing, which is equivalent to having depleted the energy twice.

If I hadn't kept 260 Originium in the core of my territory, I would most likely be dead tonight.

"I need to build up my Originium reserves from now on. This is disgusting! Is this targeting me?!"

"No, this shadow lizard is too strange. I need to send someone to investigate and find out what's inside!"

Sui An's face was extremely gloomy. Anyone who had suffered a great loss from this thing twice would not have a good expression.

Without his cheat-like abilities, aside from everything else, just this group of shadow lizards would have been enough to kill him twice over.

Having someone check it out is now a must!

Fortunately, no more source beasts rushed over after that, and Sui An immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

I've already been terrified enough tonight, I shouldn't let myself be so fearful anymore, I really can't take it anymore.

Perhaps because they heard Sui An's prayers, even though three rifts opened up around them that night, Sui An's territory remained quiet in the latter half of the night.

No second Source Beast appeared until sunrise.

"It's time for me to reap the rewards!"

He pulled an enormous bag out of the house. He had already lost 121 Originium last night, and his gains would only be more than that.

Humming a tune he vaguely remembered, Sui An arrived at the wall, in front of the largest shadow lizard.

Standing in front of this enormous creature, Sui An felt a chill of fear. This thing, including its very long tail, was a full 5 meters long.

However, because it is a lizard-like creature, its overall body is far less robust than that of the bear-like Dark Breath Silver Scale Beast, and its overall weight is also much less.

Just by climbing over the wall and glancing around, I saw a blue trophy orb lying at the base of the wall.

"Another blue loot!"

Sui An exclaimed in a low voice, never expecting to be so lucky in this regard.

He quickly reached out and picked it up to examine it, only to find that it was a special item inside, which looked like a pendant.

Sui An took it out, and as soon as he received the pendant, a message came through, making him instantly understand what it was.

[Treasure Name]: Rock Pendant

[Treasure Level]: Level 3

[Treasure Quality]: Blue

[Treasure Effect]: Upon encountering a life-threatening attack, an energy shield will automatically activate to resist the attack. It takes ten days to recover after activation.

"This is a secret treasure!"

Sui An looked delighted; these items with special functions were collectively known as secret treasures.

The biggest difference between them and various other equipment is that they do not require the wearer to use their own source energy to power them; they can absorb source energy on their own to support themselves.

And this one of his was actually a precious life-saving treasure. Although he didn't know the defensive strength of this energy shield, having an extra defensive measure could be enough to defy fate in certain situations.

This loot is a level 3 blue treasure, and for me, the defensive measures will definitely not be low.

Holding the pendant in his palm, Sui An realized that the material of the pendant looked like Originium, except that it was flat and smooth, and yellow.

The entire design is simply a teardrop shape, surrounded by thin, unidentified metal strips, through which a delicate rope passes.

After putting the rock pendant around his neck, Sui An continued to look at the large lizard, whose back was blown off in large chunks and whose internal organs were also incomplete.

He rummaged around inside with the dagger for a bit and pulled out a very large Originium, bigger than any Level 2 Originium he had ever seen.

"It really is a Level 3 Source Beast!"

"I thought it was a level 4 source beast~"

Sui An felt a little regretful, watching this guy shatter his energy shield in an instant. So powerful, yet it was only a level 3 source beast.

Recalling the masked knife-wielding man who had withstood three super lightning bombs and was still able to sit up, Sui An suddenly felt that it was normal.

If it were truly level 4, it would be unlikely that a single super lightning bolt would break through its defenses, even though its defenses consist of only a keratin layer, not actual scales.

Yesterday, Sui An had already gone through the entire illustrated guide that Wang Zhen had given him. The descriptions of the Shadow Lizard were all general, only saying that adults could grow to level 1.

As for levels 2 and 3, they are not mentioned in the introduction. There is a concept that source beasts can also break through their bloodline limits through special opportunities, so it is not surprising to occasionally encounter source beasts that exceed the normal level.

If this big guy didn't also possess dark energy, Sui An would never have considered it a mutated Shadow Lizard based on its appearance.

After dealing with the large ones, Sui An began to deal with the regular small lizards. This time, there were even more of them than during the first Blood Moon, which was quite abnormal.

It took more than an hour to collect all the Shadow Lizard Originium and sort and stack them.

Then Sui An dragged the large bag back to the courtyard and began counting the source stones, summarizing today's harvest.

There are a total of 211 Tier 1 Originium;

There are a total of 7 Tier 2 Originium;

One Tier 3 Originium;

1 blue loot orb, 1 green orb, 1 white orb;

The amount of Originium this time is even greater than when He Chong opened the rift. If it weren't for creatures like the Shadow Lizard, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

It's no wonder I emptied the energy core twice.

Unfortunately, there were still too many Shadow Lizards inside that hadn't been formed from Originium, which made Sui An feel sorry for them.

Moreover, the proportion of level 2 Shadow Lizards seems to be much higher than before.

Sui An suddenly thought of a question: "I'm not kidding, but can that river cave really fit so many shadow lizards?"

"If they were all over there, wouldn't they have already dug up to my feet...?"

Touching his stubble, Sui An used his imagination to try and explain the unusual situation.

But after thinking for a long time, I still couldn't come up with a 1234... I can only wait until I find someone to explore it before I can think about it.

After all, there are many strange things in this world, and it's normal not to understand them.

Sui An picked up another green loot from one of the level 2 Shadow Lizards. The drop rate was significantly lower this time, and Sui An was somewhat dissatisfied.

Last time, a level 2 monster dropped a green loot, but this time, out of seven, only one dropped.

The item inside was somewhat unusual; it was a plant seedling. Sui An didn't take it out. This kind of thing might have a protective function inside the loot orb, and he didn't want to take it out himself only to have it wither and die shortly afterward.

Sui An naturally didn't recognize the seedling, nor did he intend to keep it. A green-grade plant seedling should be worth some money if it were a good one.

As for the white trophy orbs, they were still materials. This time, he recognized them as ironwood cores, the core material of his watchtower, and there were two of them.

The other document is still unfamiliar; I'll just give it to Wang Zhen to look at later.
