I Become a Landlady in the Game World

At that moment, in a dense forest just outside the territory of Bengela Town.

Zhou Bai was leading three teams peering at a cave entrance.

These past few days, Zhou Bai had been operating in this area.

It had to be said, the number of middle-level Demon Beasts around Bengela Town was truly impressive, and Zhou Bai and his group had reaped considerable rewards.

Without going into detail, the Undead and Beastman who had come along had all become Intermediate Professionals. Their original levels were already higher than the others, coupled with their greater strength, and with plenty of Demon Beasts to hunt, their rate of promotion was naturally faster.

As for Zhou Bai and the rest, they had basically all successfully advanced to level 19, now aiming to push through to level 20 as much as possible.

The closer to the goal, the more exciting it became.

Look, having encountered this group of Intermediate Demon Rat Group, they had immediately given chase.

Not for any other reason but their numbers.

There could be hundreds of them.

The more numerous they were, the more Experience Points they signified.

Speaking of which, the Demon Rat is one of the weakest fighting Race among all Demon Beasts. Moreover, given their relatively small size, even if they were of high level and had thick Blood Volume, they posed much less threat to Humans.

However, they also had their own Talent—digging.

Seemingly aware of their presence, the group of Intermediate Demon Rat Group started digging burrows swiftly after being surrounded.

Perhaps due to the peculiarity of the geological strata in the area, as the Demon Rats began to dig, the ground started collapsing, revealing a huge underground cavern.

The group had no choice but to prepare to enter and explore.

After all, they could vaguely sense the presence of the Demon Rats concentrated in this underground cavern.

This meant the Demon Rats had not fled; rather, they were hiding in the cavern, ready to make their move.

"These Demon Rats think they have the advantage in the cave, so they're prepared to ambush us!" Li Xingteng analyzed by Zhou Bai's side.

He insisted on coming this time.

He knew Zhou Bai was a King of Competition and also held the identity of a Village Chief. There was no need to guess that she was leading a team out for the purpose of leveling up.

Moreover, his level had always been below that of Zhou Zhengping, and now that Zhou Zhengping was out on a mission, it was his chance to surpass him!

How could he let such a good opportunity pass?

Absolutely not!

So he followed along.

Now it seemed, he had truly made the right call, as he was just one "step" away from level 20, from becoming an Intermediate Professional.

He was now eagerly waiting to wreak havoc!

"Everyone, be careful," Zhou Bai raised her voice.

Although their strength now surpassed that of the Demon Rats, if the rats used the terrain for sneak attacks, they could still be quite dangerous.

"Yes," the crowd responded in unison.

The next moment, Zhou Bai was ready to take the lead into the cave.

However, Heidi, who had come along, stopped Zhou Bai, "Village Chief, let us go in first! It's a bit safer that way."

At this point in time, Heidi's Undead Team and another Beastman Team actually acted more like Guardians in the group.

They were responsible for Zhou Bai's safety.

The other point was to take this opportunity to help Zhou Bai reach level 20 successfully, knowing that was her main goal for the trip.

"It's okay, I'll take care of myself," Zhou Bai said and jumped down on her own.

As she moved, those following her jumped down one after the other.

At the same moment they descended, the Demon Rats hidden in dark corners surged out, rushing towards different people in various numbers.

Seeing the onslaught, Zhou Bai and her allies didn't dodge; instead, they met the charge head-on with weapons ready.

The battles over the past few days had allowed them to develop a combat style suitable for themselves.

Faced with the sudden attack of the Demon Rats, no one panicked and they immediately engaged in fierce Combat.

"Control their movements."

"Shield."

"Those who are bitten, retreat for Healing immediately."

"..."

In the crowd, Heidi Commanded the Combat, while she herself was standing casually not far from Zhou Bai, dealing with the Middle-level Demon Rats that had pounced on her.

In terms of combat power, Heidi was the strongest among them.

She had become an Intermediate Professional quite some time ago, and her Level had now reached 24.

Therefore, for her, the attacks of these Demon Beasts were like being tickled.
