Chapter 755: Dormitory Upgrade, Nether Jaws Beast!

"No wonder love-struck airheads and infatuation-brained fools manage to persist in nature. Sometimes, in some unseen way, they just happen to align with some kind of survival law."

Medicine Pearl felt that those women might actually have a real chance of settling into Demon King Castle.

Before becoming a player, she had been a medical student. She had heard plenty of gossip and knew that some big shots really did fall for women who had no ulterior motives.

Except, the odds of those women getting into Demon King Castle purely on the strength of their "purity" were still very slim.

Because Xu Lang was not short on admirers at all.

Xu Lang's masculine charm and raw strength were both maxed out, and he was not some pot-bellied middle-aged man either. Too much glory had been poured onto him. A young girl's admiration alone might not be enough to stir any special feelings in him.

"Next time I go to Demon King Castle for coffee, I wonder if I'll run into Xu Lang... Stop, stop, stop, why am I even thinking about this? It's all those women's fault for leading me astray!"

Medicine Pearl stood in front of the elevator, and the word "seduction" and other rule-violating terms subconsciously surfaced in her mind. She immediately shook her head hard.

The elevator doors closed, and Medicine Pearl headed to her own floor.

Glutton Trash Can's eyes swiveled over, and its big mouth opened, spitting out a single Copper Coin.

"Estrogen from a human female in estrus, value: 1 Copper Coin!"

After the Mad King Building's advancement, Glutton Trash Can seemed to have undergone a mutation as well.

...

"What Medicine Pearl said makes a lot of sense. Accountability is a must." Inside the reception hall, Xu Lang said one line, then closed his eyes and sank into thought.

In a way, Medicine Pearl was actually backstabbing her own class, all to curry favor with Xu Lang.

And the theory she had laid out was also very fair and reasonable.

A manager with only power and no responsibility was terrifyingly destructive to an organization.

What needed to be discussed had already been discussed in that half hour earlier.

The weight of the punishment kept being added on, layer after layer, until it reached a truly frightening degree!

"Once things settle down, we'll hold a new vote for Floor Leader." After a long while, Xu Lang opened his eyes and spoke.

The women's hearts tightened. Xu Lang had not been this serious in a long time.

"What does 'settle down' mean?" Wang Yazhi asked.

Deep down, she greatly admired Medicine Pearl.

Actually, she had always felt that the Floor Leaders' sense of responsibility was far too weak.

"After the census." Xu Lang replied.

Demon King Castle suddenly began to change!

The women's expressions shifted slightly, and they quickly steadied themselves.

This feeling was all too familiar. They experienced it after almost every game session!

Demon King Castle was upgrading!

"It's finally upgrading!" Cao Yaxuan was a little excited.

There were many mysteries within Demon King Castle, but after staying here so long, the women had explored most of what there was to explore. Now with an upgrade wave, there was something to look forward to again.

...

Every time Demon King Castle upgraded, it would gain an additional floor, and also a new ability.

After the upgrade, Demon King Castle had three floors, looking even more like a castle, with its total area expanded by a quarter.

And the new ability that appeared was very special, called "War Fortress."

Previously, only a few places like Turret Slots, the Observation Deck, and corridor Guardrails could mount turrets. But now Demon King Castle had corridors and wall battlements on all four sides, and turrets could be transferred onto the battlements with no cooldown.

In summary, the degree of freedom had increased!

Turrets could now attack in all four directions: east, south, west, and north.

Of course, this required manual operation.

The Firepower Squad led by Firepower Girl belonged to a subordinate unit of Demon King Castle. As long as they obtained authorization from Xu Lang, they could handle it on his behalf.

Although War Fortress was not a core change, it was an extremely, extremely convenient ability.

Secondly, first-tier dormitory buildings all had a basic ability.

That was, players could retract turrets back into the dormitory, which greatly enhanced players' operational flexibility. The only slight downside was a few seconds of cooldown.

War Fortress combined with this ability was a powerful synergy. Although it had not yet been used in a Defensive Battle, Xu Lang already felt a massive boost in convenience.

Beyond that, Demon King Castle had four other new changes.

One, the Spirit Fields in the Back-Hall Plantation had increased to 50 plots, allowing more crops to be planted.

Two, the Training Room and the study each gained one additional room.

Three, Terror Pedestal count +1, and Demon King Castle's speed of drawing Terror Force was now faster.

Four, consuming Terror Force could now not only improve Spirit Field quality, but also increase the effects of the Training Room and study. Terror Force had thoroughly become a source energy independent of the currency system.

Five, from the "Abyss Whisper Door" in the basement, a Nether Jaws Beast had emerged, with full loyalty, and it could be strengthened using Terror Force.

The rest was not worth mentioning, things like more exquisite furnishings, and Core Facilities growing stronger after their upgrade...

At this moment, everyone was in the basement looking at the Nether Jaws Beast.

【Nether Jaws Beast - Three-Eyed Demon Hound】

【Faction: Demon King Castle】

【Level: 30】

【Race Tier: Chief】

【Attributes: Constitution 4320, Spirit 2320, Demonic Qi 1100】

【Skills: Light of Destruction (Legendary), Three-Head Fission (Legendary), Purgatory Breath (Excellent), Abyssal Aura (Uncommon), Malicious Charge (Rare), Malicious Lock-On (Rare)】

【Description: Drip, drip... Is this your blood, or its saliva?】

The Three-Eyed Demon Hound was three meters tall. Its entire body was purplish-red, its canine face bore three vertical eyes, and its snout was extremely long, like a crocodile's, with interlocking fangs inside that made it exceptionally ferocious.

Evil Furry Grain hid at Xu Lang's feet, its dog paws covering its eyes, trembling all over, nearly scared to the point of wetting itself.

It was merely an extraordinary pet beast that came with the pet room. Its essence was far inferior to the Three-Eyed Demon Hound.

"Jaws Beasts are one of the many races of the Abyss. They are relatively famous because this race has extremely strong self-healing, making them very hard to kill." Sherry spoke up.

Within the Mad King Building, there were already many books on the mystic domains, it was just that very few people ever read them.

Sherry, however, loved reading, and was the chief editor of the Blood Mist Morning Paper, so her breadth of knowledge was very wide.

Cao Yaxuan gave a thumbs up: "High base stats, two Legendary skills, no dull moments from start to finish, way stronger than Evil Furry Grain!"

Facing the Three-Eyed Demon Hound head-on, she actually felt a sense of danger.

That was not common.

"Xu Lang, want to try strengthening it with Terror Force?" Han Zhixiu looked at Xu Lang and asked.

This Three-Eyed Demon Hound was already very strong, seemingly not weak in any aspect, looking like a well-rounded Hexagon warrior. Bringing it out to fight would absolutely be a matter of great prestige.

"No need for now. When we need to boost combat power, we'll upgrade it then." Xu Lang stepped forward, stroked the Three-Eyed Demon Hound's head, and smiled: "Seems like we're quite fated with dogs."
