[Dark Ground Crawling]
An unremarkable-looking panel, if given to someone else, it's almost completely useless.
But to Bai Yi, this is a treasure trove!
[You have used Skill Gene Extraction, the current target has extractable genes: Limb Regeneration, Carrion Eater, Corrosive Mucus]
As there is still ample Magic Power, Bai Yi extracted all these entries, further expanding the gene entry storage.
After completing the construction of the earthworm nest, both Territory Upgrade conditions were fulfilled.
Bai Yi opened the panel, and the only remaining condition for territory advancement was his own level.
[Advanced Precondition: Own 5 kinds of First-tier buildings (5/5), own 5 kinds of First-tier units (5/5), Lord level reaches 20 (12/20)]
"The level upgrade is really too slow, I can only wait for Zhan Yi and the Zhan Er squad to make an effort.
Huh? Wait a minute...
When did my level reach 12?"
Bai Yi was surprised to find that his level had unknowingly risen by 4 levels, and he hurriedly checked the combat information he had ignored today.
[Your Valkyrie Battle Dress has killed a Goblin Pitcher lv.8, a perfect victory, you gained 20 Experience Points]
[Your Bloodthirsty Beetle has killed a Black Bear lv.14, a perfect victory, you gained 140 Experience Points]
[Your Valkyrie Zhan Er has killed an Animated Corpse lv.21, a perfect victory, you gained 210 Experience Points]
[You have leveled up lv.8→lv.9 (70/450), you gained 1 free attribute point, you gained 1 skill point]
[Your attribute Constitution 9→10]
[...]
[Your Valkyrie Zhan Er has killed a Skeleton Warrior lv.23, a perfect victory, you gained 230 Experience Points]
[You have leveled up lv.11→lv.12 (70/700), you gained 1 free attribute point, you gained 1 skill point]
[Your Spirit Attribute 21→22]
"My goodness, how many did they kill!"
The panel's notification messages hadn't stopped since the squad left, with every kind of wild monster to Undead Creatures appearing.
Although most of them are low-level creatures under level 10 with not much experience, the sheer number is overwhelming!
But after Bai Yi reviewed all the combat information, he noticed that the number of undead creatures that appeared later had clearly increased a lot.
What annoyed Bai Yi the most was that none of the numerous Undead Creatures dropped a treasure box.
"Is this poking into a nest of Undead?"
Before Bai Yi had time to think deeply about it, the bushes in the distance shook, and Zhan Yi and Zhan Er came back to the territory, supporting each other, with several bloody wounds on their bodies.
The Beetles that followed had also decreased by a large number, seeming to have just gone through a fierce battle.
"Quick, sit down and rest for a bit!"
Seeing them like this, Bai Yi immediately became anxious and quickly ran over to help support them.
"Master, I've let down your expectations..."
Zhan Yi, who was the most severely injured, spoke weakly. Making it back to the territory was already her limit; her eyes rolled up, and she fainted.
Zhan Er wasn't in a much better state; his body went limp and he also collapsed to the ground, breathing weakly.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Bai Yi did not become flustered.
He quickly asked the women who were busy in the fields to carry them to the campfire and found some rice straw to pad on the ground for them to lie down on.
But what followed posed a difficult problem for Bai Yi.
She wasn't familiar with emergency first aid, and she didn't have any medicine or bandages on hand; using the wrong materials to dress the wounds might make things worse.
But Bai Yi couldn't bear to give up on Zhan Yi and Zhan Er; she was somewhat at a loss for a moment.
"Wait a minute!"
Bai Yi suddenly remembered the gene entries she had just obtained.
[Limb Regeneration: Can grant creatures strong self-healing ability; as long as wounds are not fatal, they will no longer cause death. Regeneration consumes a large amount of nutrients]
"This is the only way, I hope the compatibility is high enough."
Bai Yi carefully placed her hand on both of them and began to communicate with her superpower.
[Current gene matches well with the target, Fusion requires 350 points of Magic Power Value, would you like to proceed with Fusion]
"Need 110 more points! There's a chance!"
```
```
After the recent level up, Bai Yi's Spirit Attribute has reached 22 points, and her Magic Power Value has hit the upper limit of 240 points.
But she still has 11 free attribute points gained from leveling up!
Just by using the free attribute points, she could just hit the limit for Magic Power Value!
As for Magic Power recovery, she can also eat tree fruit to speed up the process!
Having decided on the plan, Bai Yi didn't hesitate any longer.
[You have used your free attribute points, your Spirit Attribute has increased from 22 to 33]
After opening the panel to confirm that the Magic Power Value limit has been reached, Bai Yi took out today's tree fruit from the market and took a bite.
Feeling the Magic Power begin to rapidly recover within her body, Bai Yi tightly grasped the broad palms of the two people.
"You must hold on..."
.........
The effect of the giant banyan tree fruit is excellent, an hour passes in a blink, both Zhan Yi and Zhan Er's Life Value has plummeted to single digits
Bai Yi stared tightly at the Magic Power Value on her panel, counting down nervously in her heart.
3...
2...
1...
A familiar feeling of fullness washed over her, Bai Yi didn't indulge in the sensation, and immediately activated her superpower.
[The current gene matches the target well; Genetic Fusion will consume 350 Magic Power Value, proceed with Fusion?]
"Yes!"
Her Magic Power Value, which had just been fully restored, surged out entirely, leaving an extreme void in Bai Yi's body.
This was the first time Bai Yi had drained all her Magic Power completely, and the feeling of fullness to emptiness was unpleasant, but Bai Yi knew it was worth it!
[Genetic Fusion is complete, congratulations on creating a new species: Unnamed (First-tier/Green)]

[The art style is gradually shifting]
[Your unit type Farming Woman has undergone an unknown mutation, would you like to generate corresponding architectural modifications? After modification, Farming Woman's Camp (First-tier/White) will be transformed into [Unnamed] Camp (First-tier/Green)]
Bai Yi ignored the prompts on the panel and instead fixated nervously on the two individuals.
Seeing that the Life Value of Zhan Yi and Zhan Er was no longer dropping but instead began to slowly recover, Bai Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although strictly speaking, the two of them were just one of Bai Yi's unit types, and they were even born just today.
But Bai Yi couldn't stand to watch a living person fade away in front of her.
"They are both out of danger now."
Upon Bai Yi's confirmation, the four Farming Women also cheered, happy for the recovery of their companions.
Seeing their joyful expressions, Bai Yi also wore a slight smile.
Letting them celebrate a little, Bai Yi made a quiet gesture:
"Alright, the injured need a quiet rest, come help me carry the two of them back into the tree hollow, this place isn't suitable for their rest."
The four of them quickly agreed and cooperatively and carefully carried the two.
Bai Yi then returned to the tree hollow and made two simple beds with straw and the fur of Big Cat.
After settling the two individuals, Bai Yi took out the remaining ordinary tree fruit for the day from her panel.
The recovery of the two needed nutrients, and the tree fruit just happened to meet the requirements.
Luckily the tree fruit was the juicy kind, Bai Yi pried open the mouths of the two, squeezed out a bit of juice and fed it into their mouths.
By the time Bai Yi squeezed the sixth fruit, the two finally woke up groggily.
"Master, we are sorry, we failed to meet your expectations..."
"Alright, alright, no need to blame yourselves, what exactly happened to you both, how did you get so badly injured?"
Bai Yi hurriedly interrupted their self-reproach, inquiring.
"It went like this..."
.........
Animated Corpse: A product of Undead Magic, requires fresh corpses to be awakened, the awakened Animated Corpses have no memories of their past life, most injuries are not fatal except a penetrated skull can kill them thoroughly,
