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

The gap between people is often greater than the gap between people and source beasts;

But the same applies to the differences between source beasts.

The 12 armored rhinoceros carcasses were intact. Although the blood had long since dried, they still weighed more than 30,000 kilograms in total, and a single vehicle really couldn't move them.

As for the other side, all those miscellaneous source beasts only weighed 25,000 jin in total. This is the difference between the source beast races.

It's no exaggeration to say that these 12 armored rhinoceroses might not be able to wipe out the beast tide in the north, but they should have no problem fighting their way through the current.

Not only is it lighter, but it is also cheaper on average. After all, the Ironclad Rhinoceros is a level 3 source beast, while the other one is a mix of level 1 and 2.

"It costs 1362 Originium in total. Luckily, I came with Lao Wang today, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to afford it."

"This armored rhinoceros is such a steal! The carcass is intact, and each one is worth over a hundred source stones on average. Isn't this practically free money for you?"

Erhu was flipping through the list, his mouth widening as he calculated, because the more Sui An fought, the more they earned.

Not every car waiting for passengers can be fully loaded. Larger territories will absorb the passengers themselves through various side professions; territories with connections may organize their own convoys to deliver passengers to Jiangcheng, which can both support their own people and reduce losses for middlemen.

Wang Zhen had already recovered from his injuries, but he didn't want to expose himself to his two subordinates, so he hunched over and watched as everyone moved things.

Sui An glanced at the nearly full truck, and there was still a small pile of source beasts on the other side with nowhere to put them. After thinking for a moment, he said to Wang Zhen.

"Even if these two trucks are fully loaded, they can't move them. Why don't you bring out my transport truck and let Tiger come with you? Tiger hasn't been back for a long time and misses his dad. Besides, he has broken through to level 2, so he has some combat power now."

"Hey, Tiger, you're level 2 already?"

Wang Zhen and Erhu both looked over in surprise. If Sui An hadn't explained, they really wouldn't have noticed.

Actually, if they sensed it even slightly, they could still detect it.

Tiger grinned: "I succeeded in breaking through last night. It's all thanks to Xiao An's territory; otherwise, it wouldn't have been this fast!"

"Wow, you're even faster than we were back then!"

Wang Zhen patted Hu Zi on the back with satisfaction. He and Erhu both knew about stage effects, so they could understand why Hu Zi had improved so quickly.

The two old subordinates behind Wang Zhen looked surprised. They followed Wang Zhen to Sui An's territory almost every day and were naturally aware of Wang Hu's situation.

Especially Shi Heng, who is also a physical combat professional, knows how high the physical advancement requirements are for professionals like him.

The two men rested by the side of the truck bed. Guan Hong, who had a head of white hair, had a strange expression on his face and muttered something under his breath.

"Stone, Sui An's territory is really weird. That kid who just awakened has advanced so quickly in this territory. Moreover, he has killed so many level 3 source beasts in this level 2 territory, and there is not even a meteorite crater like last time. His attack methods are too exaggerated."

Shi Heng simply shook his head. He had always been sullen. Even when Baldy was around, he rarely spoke. After his injury, he seemed even more withdrawn.

Seeing that Shi Heng remained silent, Guan Hong suddenly tugged at Shi Heng's sleeve, pulling him closer, and his voice became even lower.

"Do you think the boss might leave the transport team and come to Sui An's territory? Judging from the number and frequency of the source beasts, I think he'll be promoted again in a month or two at most."

This time, Shi Heng finally broke his silence. His voice was somewhat hoarse, as if his internal organs were damaged.

"Probably. In this internal strife within the transport team, three brothers died. The boss was quite sad and disappointed. Ping An Trading Company is too big, so big that these competitions have become distorted."

"You're right. I was thinking of quitting too. It's one thing for us to fight with outsiders, but we also have to be wary of the people in our own transport team. What's the point of staying?"

Guan Hong spat lightly, clearly sharing the same view as Shi Heng on the matter: although the counterattack was successful, some brothers had still been lost.

"Stone, if the boss withdraws the team, will you?"

"That depends on whether the boss takes us along or not."

Shi Heng did not say whether he was willing or not; he was also very curious about this territory.

Although Wang Zhen was tight-lipped and everyone generally followed the rules, he had seen a complete crystal puppet during the last big harvest. The bald man said that the puppet was a level 4 mutant and sold for 500 source stones.

Almost no one would believe that a level 2 territory could kill a level 4 mutated rock golem.

If it weren't for the fact that we had all followed Wang Zhen for a long time and were relatively discreet, if anyone had leaked the information, it would probably have caused a sensation in a small circle long ago.

"That's true~"

While the two were whispering to each other, Wang Hu and a few others had already filled the small transport truck with their hands.

"Okay, now that it's all set up, we'll leave. Be careful on your own."

Erhu sat in the car and waved to Sui An. The group then drove three cars toward Jiangcheng.

After watching them leave, Sui An activated the energy shield. He didn't want to conserve energy since he was alone. The wall was too high and offered no visibility, so if he didn't activate the energy shield, he would have to stand on the watchtower all the time.

Back in the cabin, Sui An turned his attention to his Lord Core.

This time, I mined Originium, which is about 802 coins, but I made 1362 coins from selling meat. This is the first time I've made more money from selling meat than from Originium.

Even when the rift and the Shadow Lizard attacked at the same time last time, killing over a thousand Source Beasts, I only received a little over five hundred yuan from selling the meat.

The reason is actually quite simple: many of the source beasts from last time were burned by the Firebird.

In addition, level 3 source beast meat is expensive, and their size is usually one size larger than level 1 and 2 source beasts. This time there are also twelve armored rhinoceroses, which is even more outrageous.

In addition, his Sword Star and Sword Rain mode preserves most of the source beast meat, so the income from selling the meat will be more valuable than the source stones inside the beast.

Looking at my Originium reserves, a simple calculation shows that it's equivalent to 2921 Originium.

Sui An was quite satisfied and immediately opened his blueprint library.

"I'm rich again. Last time I only needed 30 more pulls to reach the pity system, but this time I can spend 1200 energy to reach the pity system first, and then spend another 600 yuan to pull for two more materials. I'll keep the remaining 1000 yuan as a precaution against any unexpected events."

Sui An adjusted the Prayer to a Barrier this time. Sword Star is only one card away from reaching full Enlightenment, so he might as well work on other things first. He is still confident that he can get a big guaranteed reward in the remaining time.

"Not bad~ Not bad~" Seeing two pieces of Sword Star material appear in a row, Sui An finally showed a happy smile.
