I'm a Pastor, what the hell is an Acute Gastroenteritis Outbreak Spell?!

Cui Xiabing looks in surprise at the figure in front of her.

Among the ten initial summoning species, the one leading them is a burly figure clad in intimidating dark armor and wielding a ghost-headed broadsword.

Hero!

Her initial summoning had brought forth a hero unit!

With a blink of an eye, the hero unit’s specific properties appeared before her eyes.

“One in a hundred thousand odds, and it happened to me…..”

Cui Xiabing excitedly said, “I must be the first in this secret realm assessment!”

“Military counselor!”

Ran Dao strode to Cui Xiabing and asked, “The main force is behind us, and we are the vanguard stationed here. But there are Alien Beasts all around us, what should we do?”

“Military counselor?”

Cui Xiabing’s eyes flickered, normal soldiers when summoned, would recognize the summoner as ‘general’, ‘leader’, etc.

But the hero units would regard the summoner as different comrades, or even subordinates, according to their own profession.

The highest positions among them are those of military counselors and advisers, just slightly below lords and masters.

If you are really talented and full of strategies, you can subdue the summoned heroes, who would then recognize you as a master.

But if you can’t do anything, just knowing how to fight blindly, the summoned heroes will regard you as an idiot, or even a burden, and will not listen to your opinions.

This is the biggest difference between normal soldiers and heroes.

Hearing Ran Dao’s question, Cui Xiabing quickly responded in accordance with the intelligence and information she got from school: “General Ran, you can send a group of soldiers to the forest to cut down trees and make simple weapons for defense.”

“Another group of soldiers should look for fruits and wild fruits in the forest, or hunt for food, so we have enough food to prepare for the Alien Beast attack in half an hour!”

Ran Dao immediately nodded and said, “Good! Let’s follow the counselor’s advice.”

“Men, swiftly go to the forest to cut down trees and find food!”

“Yes, General!”

Under the leadership of Ran Dao, the nine soldiers immediately walked towards the nearby forest.

Cui Xiabing watched their backs, her eyes glowing.

“Ran Dao’s profession is warlord, there is no record in the school’s intelligence, but Zhao Fei, a hero with the same profession, should have a similar profession and character.”

“As long as I can keep coming up with ideas and show my strength, sooner or later, I will win over Ran Dao and become the biggest winner in this secret realm test!”

…

Another homestead.

This is a homestead located at the foot of a mountain, with a natural defensive advantage due to the mountain at its back.

The other three directions are covered by dense forests, and dark fog swirls in, making it look very dangerous.

Under Chu He’s command, five soldiers moved the homestead crystal into a cave and sealed the entrance with nearby rocks, leaving only a hole large enough for two people to go in and out.

Watching his busy men, Chu He’s eyes kept flickering.

“As expected, the so-called defending the homestead, is actually defending this homestead crystal!”

“As long as this homestead crystal isn’t broken, my mission won’t fail!”

“Hiding the homestead crystal inside the cave, the Alien Beasts can’t find it, so I have a natural advantage!”

The first thing Chu He did after entering the secret realm was not to collect food or cut down trees, but to hide the homestead crystal!

If this news got out, it would shock many people.

“Sir!”

A soldier with a bandana came in front of Chu He and respectfully said.

The initial summoning unit Chu He summoned was actually a one-star prisoner!

All of them have severe punishments, less constitution, and agility, but their strength is the highest among all one-star unit types.

“We have already hidden the homestead crystal, and we do not know what to do next…..”

Chu He immediately said, “One group should chop down trees and make six-foot long spears, insert them at an angle into the rock crevices to form a simple deer’s antlers.”

“And each person should cut their arm and smear blood on the spears!”

“Another group should collect rocks, at least two hundred throwable rocks in half an hour!”

His homestead was on a mountain, where rocks were plentiful and easy to collect.

The leading prisoner frowned and said, “Sir, why not send one group to collect food?”

“We haven’t eaten for two days, and our limbs are weakening, plus you ask us to cut our own arms…..”

“Eat?”

Chu He shook his head and said, “Just half an hour, just wait until we kill the first wave of Alien Beasts, then won’t we have food?”

“As for cutting your arms and smearing blood on the spears, that’s just to attract the Alien Beasts to attack.”

“The first wave of alien beasts are just mindless black skin worms acting on instinct, they pose no great threat.”

“With your strengths, we could easily slaughter them. We will have ample food, do you understand?”

His followers wanted to argue, but glancing at Chu He’s stern gaze, they could only reluctantly reply, “Yes! Sir!”

After withdrawing, their eyes began to flicker, their minds filled with uncertainty.

Looking at the retreating figures, a cold glint flashed in Chu He’s eyes.

“Prisoners… their loyalty can only be raised to a maximum of 80 points. They’re undoubtedly just cannon fodder.”

“As long as we withstand the first wave of attack, I can gather resources and call upon other troops.”

“These prisoners are still somewhat useful. Before their loyalty drops to zero, I will squeeze out their last bit of value.”

In another part of the secret realm.

Zhuang Shuai held a wooden spear, fiercely stabbing it into the ground.

With a splash, he pulled out a fish still violently flailing about from the river, quickly stripping it onto the nearby shore.

“Hahaha, lads, I have caught another big one!”

“Sir, you are so impressive!”

“Certainly, it’s our sir!”

Next to him, several other militia were also rolling up their trouser cuffs, trying to catch fish in the river.

Unfortunately, their skills fell short, paling in comparison to Zhuang Shuai.

Not far from the shore, stood a village.

Zhuang Shuai’s village was nestled next to a large river.

The river meandered downwards, half of it hidden in a black fog, providing him a natural defensive map and a source of food.

After sending half of his militia to cut down trees, he took the remaining to the river to fish.

With his participation, they caught over twenty lively big fish in just ten minutes flat.

The morale and loyalty of the ten militia members instantly shot up to over 70 points.

“Hehehe… support abilities? Are they as good as mine?”

Looking at the excited militia starting to roast the fish, Zhuang Shuai chuckled, “People take food as the prime necessity. As long as there’s enough food, we can ensure our soldiers’ morale and strength.”

“With so many alien beasts, I wonder if they can be used for cooking? If so, that would enhance the strength of the soldiers.”

“With this exam, I’ll easily place first.”

Meanwhile.

Inside the guarded secret realm, over two thousand support professionists had all summoned their one-star troops.

They were cutting trees, creating rudimentary weaponry, and searching for food in preparation for the upcoming alien beast attack in half an hour.

Some were advancing rather smoothly, while others faced substantial troubles.

And time was ticking away.

Outside the village, Zheng Cheng was carefully examining the bright red light dots displayed in the Central Radar Life Monitoring Technique.

Around his village, or rather inside the black fog, there lay many alien beasts.

The leader was a Black Skin Worm!

Further investigation revealed Black Armor Worms, Spotted Spiders, Giant Bloodsucking Mosquitos, Scarlet Centipedes, and other alien beasts, numbering tens of thousands at least.

Apart from those, there were sizeable, more powerful alien beasts lurking in the darkness.

BOSS!

Within three kilometers, it was crawling with alien beasts!

From one-star to four-star.

As for five-star and above alien beasts, none were discovered.

It’s very likely they were beyond Zheng Cheng’s search range!

“Strange, why aren’t these alien beasts charging all at once to destroy my village? Instead, they’re slowly sending out more and more powerful beasts… this tactic is unexpected…”

“Isn’t this just helping the defenders grow stronger? Why would…”

“The special rules of the secret realm? But why such odd rules?”

Zheng Cheng looked puzzled, turning his gaze towards the distance, “Could the secret be beyond those three kilometers?”

Just as he was pondering, the ten human peons he had summoned returned.

They had gathered thirty units of wood and some wild vegetables and fruits.

“My lord, half an hour is almost up. These are the resources we have collected.”

“Hmm.”

Zheng Cheng nodded, “Put all the resources inside the village. You should rest now.”

Zhang San was astonished, “What? Rest? Sir, the alien beast attack is imminent. Shouldn’t we be on guard…”

“Okay, okay.”

Soon after, an hour passed!

Panic set in.

The black fog closest to the village suddenly began to roll.

Shadowy creatures the size of wolves, with a dozen thin segmented legs, emerged from the fog, their jaws open wide, yelping as they rushed towards Zheng Cheng and his villagers.

“My lord! There are more coming!”

“From behind too!”

“My lord, we…”

Zhang San and the others shouted. After laboring for an hour, they were already exhausted.

When the alien beast attack suddenly struck, they could only fight for their lives!

At that moment, a shadow rushed out, moving at an exceptional speed.

Almost in the blink of an eye, it was in front of the first Black Skin Worm. With one kick, it sent the creature flying.

The Black Skin Worm’s head exploded mid-air, black blood scattering everywhere. It was dead before it hit the ground.

At the same time, a faint black stream of energy emerged from the creature’s body and divided into eleven weaker streams, entering the bodies of Zheng Cheng and ten peasants.

Soul power.

“Huh?”
