After bringing back the items he had deposited at the bank, Bai Yujing couldn't help but use three hundred points to activate his Territory Panel. Bai Yujing immediately saw his iris light up as the Territory Panel in the shop interface was activated.
He felt a warm current surge into his brain, and it seemed as if the connection between his body and mind was momentarily severed. After a while, Bai Yujing managed to get up from the sofa, feeling that something was off with his state, as if something inside his head was about to burst out.
"What the hell? Why is this happening?"
Bai Yujing glanced at the Exotic Creature Hunter System, which immediately displayed a prompt: "Territory Panel activated, initial territory is one square meter. Please select territory transformation as soon as possible!"
Bai Yujing was still confused: "Select territory transformation? How do I choose?"
However, this peculiar Hunter System lacked any sprites or guiding characters; he could only rely on himself to explore. Bai Yujing wandered around the front yard for a bit and then pointed at a small seedling of an Orange Tree that had not yet fully formed, saying, "This will do!"
He felt a sharp pain in his head, as if his consciousness was slowly extending out from within, enveloping the piece of ground he had just chosen along with the Orange Tree. Gradually assimilating it, Bai Yujing watched as the land and seedling slowly became ethereal, disappearing from reality.
"My God, is this really happening?"
Bai Yujing stared at the large pit that appeared on the ground where the Orange Tree once stood. He realized that his consciousness could sense another place, almost like a virtual space.
It was a very strange feeling, akin to what the Atlantians described as spirit; it felt as if a unique power was being nurtured within his mind.
"Territory selection successful. Please confirm territory type. Type One: Exotic Creatures Research Lab!"
"Type Two: Exotic Creatures Paradise!"
"Type Three: Exotic Creatures Prison Type!"
Bai Yujing thought for a moment and decided to choose Type Two. First, he wasn't really into research, and second, having a prison wouldn't be much use to him. Only the Exotic Creatures theme park type intrigued Bai Yujing!
Bai Yujing immediately felt his consciousness extend into a vast, boundless world, as if a space had exploded open in an instant, light continuously spreading out. Bai Yujing saw a vast world where a one-square-meter piece of land floated in the air, with a small sapling growing on it that looked malnourished due to Bai Yujing's lack of care.
"This is my territory?" Bai Yujing observed this world from a completely third-person perspective, feeling somewhat like a god. He was utterly amazed; the sky here had no sun or clouds, only an incredibly clear blue sky. As for where the light came from, Bai Yujing couldn't quite figure it out; it seemed like it was just naturally bright here.
Excited, Bai Yujing began trying to place items into his territory—cups, chairs—but when he attempted to put in a table, he discovered it wouldn't fit. It seemed there was a size restriction; anything over one meter couldn't be placed inside. However, this was still impressive; this was truly a portable little space.
In the shop, the Territory Panel displayed numerous sales options. Expanding the area by one square meter cost 10 points. Additionally, there were categories for environmental adjustments, seasonal changes, terrain modifications, and more, each with many subcategories. The point-based purchasing system made Bai Yujing feel somewhat dazzled.
Only then did Bai Yujing understand that collecting biological illustrations earlier was merely a task for a Exotic Creature Hunter novice. Now he had truly stepped out of the beginner village. He regretted thinking he was so impressive; if calculated according to online game levels, he probably hadn't even reached level ten yet—just barely stepping out of the novice village and still not having completed his job change quest!
Suddenly, Bai Yujing had a whimsical thought: could he enter this space? If so, that would be incredible! In the future, if he encountered any difficult situations, he could just hide inside and solve everything—no one would be able to do anything to him!
However, after trying for a while, Bai Yujing found it didn't work. At first, he thought it was because he was too big, but later realized that living things couldn't be placed inside. Even the fish that Emma bought for cooking couldn't be put in. Bai Yujing could only sigh: "It seems it's really not possible; living things can't go inside!"
At that moment, Dudu suddenly jumped down from the upstairs Stairs, leisurely walking toward the refrigerator. Familiar with the routine, it jumped onto its designated long bench and opened the fridge. However, at that moment, it seemed to sense an unkind gaze watching it.
Dudu turned around and saw Bai Yujing looking at it with sparkling eyes. Instantly, it took off running without even grabbing a beer. Bai Yujing immediately chased after it: "Don't run! Stop! I'm not going to do anything to you!"
"Stop!"
Dudu wouldn't stop. Last time, Bai Yujing was fooled like this and ended up stuffing himself into Brat's arms as a plush toy. Don't be fooled by Dudu's short little legs; when it runs, it's incredibly fast. It dashed from downstairs to upstairs, then from the third floor to the backyard, running a lap around the Swimming Pool. Bai Yujing couldn't catch it at all.
"Stop, stop, stop! I won't chase you anymore; I give up!" Bai Yujing immediately raised his hands in surrender.
Dudu seemed to believe him and stopped, but Bai Yujing instantly sprang into action, leaping forward to try and catch Dudu. However, Dudu jumped up and stepped on Bai Yujing's shoulder, successfully escaping the ambush and darting away in a flash.
At that moment, the gate of the yard opened, and Bai Yujing quickly went out to find that it was Emma returning from outside, carrying a large number of bags as if she had bought quite a lot of things!
Bai Yujing asked with some confusion, "Why did you buy so many things?"
Emma immediately replied, "We'll need them. We don't know what kind of situations we might encounter later, so it's always good to be prepared!"
Bai Yujing nodded, "If there are any items that can't be carried, let me know; I have ways to transport them!"
Emma's eyes lit up: "Really? Then I need to think carefully! By the way, you mentioned going to get something in the morning. Did you bring everything back?"
Bai Yujing nodded and took out a package from under the coffee table: "Merlin's Staff, Healing Spring Gold Plate, Fountain of Youth Golden Plate, they're all here. By the way, you brought the Nautical Chart, right? I've seen you looking at some notes you've made before; we need to bring the official Nautical Chart too. Just in case there's anything we've missed or overlooked, it might come in handy later!"
"I brought it; it's in the box upstairs!"
