Maybe I shouldn't die.

Over the next few days, Fang Yue and the team went out of the city to fight the Zerg every other day. After the Zerg tide receded the next day, they returned to the courtyard to count the spoils and soak in recovery potions. In the afternoon, they went to the treatment center to complete treatment tasks to earn contribution points.

Before sunset, I returned to the inn and reviewed the details of the previous day's battle with my teammates. After reviewing the battle, everyone went back to their rooms. I spent three hours studying the "Encyclopedia of Plants", and then rested for another two hours. At the morning of the second day, I went out of the city with the team again to fight the Zerg, and repeated this process over and over again.

On the tenth day after entering the secret realm, Fang Yue and her teammates returned to the inn after repelling the fourth insect tide.

As usual, they counted the spoils first. The Zerg cores they obtained this time were almost the same as the previous time, and could be exchanged for around contribution points. Except for Fang Yue, everyone could get around 3000.

The last time we reviewed the game, we had discovered that their team's combat efficiency had reached its limit and would not improve in the short term, and there would be two more insect swarms to come.

As long as the number of Zerg does not decrease too much, they will be able to accumulate enough contribution points before leaving the secret realm.

After cleaning up the spoils and returning to the house, Fang Yue continued to absorb the advanced recovery liquid. Since she discovered that the advanced recovery liquid could nourish her soul and increase her lifespan, this was her sixth medicinal bath. Compared with before entering the secret realm, her remaining lifespan has increased by 60 years.

There are still five days before the secret realm closes. Fang Yue does not plan to take part in the remaining two Zerg swarms. Her combat level has reached its limit. The Zerg's attack method remains unchanged. If she continues to take part in the battle, her level will not improve.

During the review of the second battle, Fang Yue informed the rest of the team about her plan to find herbs that could be used to make insecticides. After hearing her plan, everyone supported Fang Yue's plan. So during the third insect tide, Fang Yue used the medicine made from Celastrus orientalis on the battlefield.

This medicinal liquid did not disappoint Fang Yue's hopes and had a certain effect on the primary Zerg. After coming into contact with the medicinal liquid made from Celastrus orientalis, the movement speed of the primary stem borers became visibly slow, and a few of them even showed symptoms of foaming at the mouth.

Because a battle is ongoing, it is not suitable to observe in detail the effects of the drug on primary stem borers, but judging from the initial symptoms alone, it can be seen that this drug can indeed have an adverse effect on stem borers.

So after the insect swarm faded, the team members discussed and decided to inform the city lord of the matter. After all, individual power is limited, not to mention that they are just passers-by in this world.

When the city lord learned about the existence of this kind of liquid medicine, he was very surprised and did not doubt what Fang Yue and others said. He immediately arranged for someone to go to the medicine refining hall to inform them of the matter and asked the pharmacists in the hall to refine a large amount of this liquid medicine.

Considering that the elves were unable to use the Spirit Rain Technique to spread the medicine over a large area, Fang Yue suggested that the city lord could arrange for the elves who could forge to try to refine a device that could spray the medicine.

The elves acted very quickly. In this battle, Fang Yue had already seen many elves holding spray bottles and spraying medicine on the battlefield.

After absorbing the recovery liquid, Fang Yue went to the treatment center again. Although the contribution points he had were enough to exchange for three spiritual objects including the contribution points he got from this battle, Fang Yue considered that he still needed to buy advanced recovery liquid, so the contribution points were still indispensable.

Moreover, after Senior Brother You knew that she had saved enough contribution points, he discussed with her that if any team member's contribution points were not enough to exchange for spiritual objects before leaving, they could borrow from her and repay her with ten times the amount of sect points after leaving the secret realm. Fang Yue agreed.

This suggestion also inspired her that the excess contribution points could be sold to other fellow disciples in the same way, which would surely be very popular.

After all, the senior brothers and sisters in her team are already the best among the disciples who entered the secret realm, and they can only barely obtain enough contribution points to exchange for three spiritual objects. Most of the disciples who entered the secret realm cannot gather enough contribution points.

Fang Yue had just finished treating 300 injured people and was about to leave the treatment center when the elf from the City Lord's Mansion approached her and said, "The City Lord wants to see you."

Fang Yue followed the elf to the reception hall of the City Lord's Mansion, and saw that the other members of the team were already waiting there. They were all confused as to why the City Lord had invited them all.

The city lord arrived soon, followed by many servants holding boxes. Everyone went up to greet him, and the city lord returned the greeting.

After everyone sat down again, the city lord explained that the Celastrus liquid their team had provided earlier had been extremely effective in restraining the Zerg and Zerg, so he had prepared some gifts as a token of his gratitude.

The team members were very happy to learn that the Celastrus denudata liquid was indeed useful, but they also said that there was no need for gifts because they could not take away most of the things in the small world.

The city lord just smiled and said nothing, not minding their refusal. He waved his hand to signal the servants to bring the gifts to them and open them one by one.

Everyone was a little surprised. The items in the box were exactly what they needed. Senior Brother Han Tongshu and Senior Brother Xiao Ji were both level 3 spirits, so the boxes in front of them contained spiritual objects that matched their respective attributes.

Senior Sister Zhao Min is a wood and fire spirit. In the box in front of her, in addition to the wood and fire spiritual objects, there is also a medicine furnace, which is the one she had set her eyes on in the exchange hall before.

Senior Brother Zhang was practicing swordsmanship, and in the box in front of him, in addition to the two spiritual objects that matched his physique, there was also an extra ore. Senior Brother You's box contained not only spiritual objects and ores, but also a fruit.

In the box in front of Fang Yue were two spiritual objects of the wood and water elements and a bottle of medicine. She recognized it at a glance. This was the god-level recovery medicine she had always wanted.

When the team members saw the items in the box, they could no longer refuse and they all took the gifts and expressed their gratitude to the city lord.

The city lord must have put in a lot of effort and the thank-you gifts he prepared were all what they needed.

After leaving the City Lord's Mansion and returning to the inn, everyone gathered in Senior Brother You's room again. With these thank-you gifts, they no longer needed to exchange for spiritual objects.

After some discussion, Senior Brother You said that they needed to contact other disciples and make sure to exchange all their contribution points before leaving the secret realm. Everyone agreed.

Fang Yue also told the others that she would not participate in the next two insect swarms. She planned to go to the treatment center to treat the wounded. As for the sale of contribution points, she entrusted it to several senior brothers and sisters. She was willing to give 10% of the contribution points as compensation.

None of the team members were surprised, as Fang Yue had already discussed this with them, except that the number of contribution points to be sold had increased.

However, there is no need to offer a 10% reward. They took advantage of Fang Yue in the first place, and that is why they received the thank-you gift from the City Lord's Mansion.
