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

Wang Hu came out of the house. He vaguely heard someone chatting with Sui An. He was a little surprised. Who would come here besides the businessmen and his own group of people?

"Xiao An, who were those people just now?"

Sui An stepped down from the watchtower: "It's nothing, just a bit of a hassle."

"You've been awakened for half a month now, how's your cultivation progressing?"

Wang Hu waved his arm and then sensed his body again: "The progress of physical training is okay, but the source beast soul essence seems a bit lacking."

Sui An shook his head. Other things are easy to talk about, but that's how soul essence is. Either you face more dangers every day, or you will gain more soul essence.

If you kill the source beast safely within your territory, you will naturally obtain less.

After thinking it over, Sui An made some new arrangements.

"Then you should rest well during the day, and when you're on night duty, take your crossbow and hunt down the occasional Source Beasts."

"I've already moved all the elemental statues to the back. I've reserved the space for you. Go to the cellar this evening, get some source beast meat, and throw it out. That should be faster."

"Okay~"

After hearing this, Wang Hu turned around and prepared to go back into the house.

"boom!"

Suddenly, a booming sound rang out from the east of the territory, and Sui An's territory core immediately issued a warning.

Sui An suddenly raised his head. The energy shield to the east was undulating, and he could vaguely see a long spear wrapped in wind.

Before he could react, another blade gleaming with golden energy slashed down on the protective shield, causing the shield to ripple even more violently.

"There's been an attack!"

The thought flashed through Sui An's mind, and the projection of his territory on his chest appeared rapidly, directly connecting the thought to the three elemental statues.

From the perspective of the elemental statues, three points of light could be faintly seen standing on the upper edge of the wall.

"Were these the three people who just came to ask me that question?"

"Have I been exposed?"

"How did I expose myself?"

A series of thoughts flashed through his mind, but he had no time to let his mind wander, because the third weapon, shining with an earthy yellow light, had already smashed into his shield.

The three attacks appeared to be spaced out, but in fact they came almost one after another. The energy shield on the east side was teetering on the brink of collapse, shaking violently, and was just a hair's breadth away from exploding on the spot.

Several exclamations even accompanied the roar.

"Is this level 1 shield really that tough?!"

"This is a level 1 territory?!"

Fortunately, Sui An's elemental statues had also locked onto their respective targets. Before they could each unleash their second attack, three lightning magic bullets instantly struck the three professionals who were perched on the wall.

The three huddled together, trying to concentrate their strength to break through the energy shield, but were instead hit by three lightning bombs at once. The combined force of the violent impact sent the unsuspecting trio flying off the wall by the shockwave.

"what!"

"what!"

Painful screams came from outside the wall. Wang Hu had also regained consciousness and followed Sui An, climbing the watchtower at lightning speed with both hands and feet.

Sure enough, it was the same three people who had just come to inquire about the news!

At this moment, apart from the one wearing the metal breastplate who had already sat up from the ground, the other two were already lying on the ground convulsing, struggling to get up, but their bodies were paralyzed and they couldn't sit up at all!

"Boom!"

Sui An and Wang Hu had already fired their crossbow bolts. Song Ming's eyes were filled with terror. He really couldn't understand why this wasn't a level 1 territory.

How could there be such a terrifying lightning attack!

Damn!

The paralysis effect slowed his reaction by a beat, and two crossbow bolts struck his metal armor before he could parry with his weapon.

Golden energy rippled on the armor, but it didn't envelop him, suggesting that none of the three were intermediate-level professionals.

However, the armor's defense seemed quite high, and it failed to penetrate him in one strike. Instead, it slammed him hard to the ground as he had just sat up, nearly dissipating the golden energy within him, and sending dust flying.

The cooldown time of the three elemental statues had been restored, and three lightning bolts hit the three people again.

The other two people lying on the ground had most of their clothes and protective gear blown to shreds, their bodies covered in blood and gore. They were unconscious on the spot, their fate unknown, only their bodies twitching instinctively.

The golden source energy on Song Ming's body was completely dispersed, and without source energy to activate it, the golden breastplate was also somewhat damaged.

After taking six mixed lightning strikes, even with his protective gear, he couldn't hold on any longer and coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"Shoot the limbs!"

Sui An's face darkened. It was really strange that these three people attacked him without saying a word.

He wanted to know the answer!

Wang Hu was slightly taken aback, then lowered the crossbow bolt in his hand and shot it toward Song Ming's thigh.

Two crossbow bolts struck Song Ming's left and right thighs in succession. Without the protection of his breastplate, the bolts pierced through his thighs, pinning him to the ground.

The intense pain caused his veins to bulge all over his body, but at this moment, the lightning paralyzed his body, making him unable to exert any strength and unable to resist at all.

Looking at the three people below who were unable to move, Sui An fired two more arrows at each of them before giving the order.

"Tiger, bring them over here with their limbs dismembered. I'll keep an eye on things from up here and find out why they attacked us!"

"good!"

Wang Hu didn't hesitate at all.

Carrying the long spear, Wang Hu charged straight at the two men, who were now completely powerless to resist.

Wang Hu easily dislocated the joints of the limbs and then dragged them to the vicinity of the barrier. Sui An stood on the watchtower, looked around, and only came down after confirming that there was no one else.

He carried a bucket of cold water out of the wooden house and poured it over Song Ming. The icy river water woke him up instantly. He tried to move, but found that he was in excruciating pain all over his body and could not exert any force in his limbs.

However, his near-level 4 combat professional physique allowed him to retain his life.

Looking at Sui An, who was staring intently at him, Song Ming revealed an extremely bitter expression and slowly said through gritted teeth.

"You are not a level 1 territory!"

"..."

Sui An really didn't expect that this guy's first words to him would be this.

Why did you attack me?

Song Ming fell silent, then closed his eyes, revealing an expression of resignation to death.

Seeing the leader in this state, Sui An looked at the other two. These two had no good protective gear and their physical strength was much lower than Song Ming's, so they were knocked unconscious by just two lightning bolts.

Sui An poured a basin of water on the fat man's face, but the fat man did not regain consciousness, nor did he even tremble. He seemed to be on the verge of death.

The remaining water was poured onto the last person's face, and it had a similar effect.

Sui An turned to Song Ming and sneered, "Fine, you won't talk, huh?"

"You think you're going to die anyway, so you just wait to die?"

"Tiger, grab anyone and bring them up on stage. I'll show this leader what it means to beg for death but not be able to die!"

"what?"

Tiger hesitated for once, glancing at his beloved stage, seemingly worried that the bloody mess would soil his precious thing.

But Tiger hesitated for only a moment before carrying one of them over and gently placing him on the stage.

"Watch closely. If there are any signs of recovery in his limbs, then you can cut him again!"

As Sui An spoke, he summoned the territory projection and activated the stage's active effects.

Suddenly, many tiny water droplets appeared on the stage, each droplet radiating a rainbow of light. For a moment, the stage seemed to be filled with the light of a concert, with countless dreamlike lights shining brightly.

There was even a girl's voice humming an unknown tune on stage.

Wang Hu's mouth dropped open. It was the first time he had ever seen such a stage effect. He had always thought that the purpose of this stage was to restore physical strength and energy.

Not only Wang Hu, but even Song Ming, who was lying weakly to the side, opened his eyes and looked at this dreamlike scene.

After the water droplets appeared, they began to soak into the professional's body. His chest, which had been blown to pieces, began to slowly tremble and grow, and even the dirty blood on his body was slowly dissipating.

Although it's not an instant cure, the recovery speed is already visible to the naked eye.

Song Ming's eyes widened in shock. Such a building existed in the world? How could a building with such powerful healing abilities appear in a low-level territory?

How is that possible!

His mind was in complete chaos, and seeing that the professional was showing signs of awakening, he was even more unable to understand.

But Sui An's next words instantly snapped Song Ming out of his daze.

"Tiger, give that guy another cut. Once the flesh grows back, we'll continue!"

Not to mention Song Ming, even Wang Hu seemed to be seeing Sui An like this for the first time, and he suddenly turned his head to look at him with a look of surprise.

But the knife in his hand was wielded without hesitation, and he slashed down hard.

Sui An remained calm, showing no sign of anything amiss, as if the demonic whispers had not come from him at all.

"Let that one experience it for a while first, then we'll let this silent one experience it later. It'll be a good opportunity for you, Tiger, to practice your dissection skills. You're not so good at mining Originium anymore, anyway, they won't die."

Tiger hesitated. It sounded like they were both big devils!

But Song Ming regained his senses and immediately shouted in terror!

"I'll talk, I'll talk!"
