Chapter 111 Recruiting Newcomers and Friendship with Hog Village

At this time, the two survivors asked: "Master Cao...Master Cao Xing..."

"We have told you what you want to know, can you let us go?"

Cao Xing nodded, "Okay."

There was a strong sense of joy in the eyes of the two survivors.

And just then.

A flash of cold light passed across their necks.

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

The two men's heads tilted and they died instantly.

Cao Xing looked at the pile of corpses on the street, and several imperial soldiers and imperial archers who were beaten half to death.

The blood dyed the ground red, and several houses on both sides were destroyed.

Fortunately, no casualties were caused among the ordinary villagers.

Cao Xing said: "Assam, Renis, clean up the battlefield."

...

...

a few minutes ago.

A few dozen kilometers away from Hog Village, in a snowy field, there is a survivors' camp.

Fang Long and his family were in the territory hut, looking respectfully at a hunter in a black robe and a mask on his face.

The attitude is very humble.

Fang Long smiled and said, "My Lord Priest, you have seen my territory, what do you think of it?"

The black-robed priest nodded and said, "Not bad, you are worthy of being the chosen lord. This is a good hiding spot. The soldiers of those kingdoms basically won't come here to search."

"Then, as agreed, I will send my assassins to deal with that kid."

"And your territory will serve as a stronghold for our Church of Light to ensure that our position will not be exposed."

At this point, the black-robed priest's tone became a little cold and he said, "If you dare to betray the Church of Light, I think you should know the consequences. By then, you will beg me to kill you!"

Hearing the last sentence, Fang Long and his family trembled all over.

But he quickly put on a smile and nodded respectfully, "Don't worry, Master Priest. Now that I have joined the Church of Light, I will definitely serve the church wholeheartedly."

The black-robed priest nodded and said, "Then you can leave. This hut will be our temporary base from now on."

"Okay, Your Excellency the Priest."

Fang Long and his family respectfully left the lord's cottage.

No one could have imagined that this group of hunters would be so cunning that they would think of using the survivors' territory as a hiding place.

However, before they were about to leave, the black-robed priest stopped his gaze on the beautiful woman next to Fang Long.

This woman is Fang Long’s wife, her name is Lan Qianqian.

In Hong Kong City, she is considered one of the more famous beauties.

Although her looks are not as good as those of the top ten goddesses such as Liu Muxue and Yan Jingwei, she is still a very eye-catching presence among ordinary people.

At this time, Lan Qianqian had two ponytails, light makeup on her face, and her big, blinking eyes looked very pure.

And under the wolfskin coat is a pair of beautiful legs in fishnet stockings.

It gives people a style that is both pure and sexy.

For these indigenous people, this was a woman they had never seen before.

The black-robed priest suddenly said, "Wait a moment."

Fang Long and others stopped and asked, "What's wrong, Master Priest?"

"Is this woman your wife?"

Fang Long nodded, "Yes, sir."

The black-robed priest did not speak, but looked at Lan Qianqian with a scrutinizing gaze, his eyes revealing a look of interest.

Lan Qianqian felt a little uncomfortable under his naked gaze.

Fang Long didn't dare to breathe for a moment.

After a moment, the black-robed priest chuckled and said, "It's okay, you can go first."

Fang Long and others felt relieved.

At the same time, Fang Long had brought his family to a shelter nearby.

The beautiful woman next to him asked softly, "Brother Long... are we really going to give our territory to these guys? I heard that they are a group of cultists, and the whole kingdom is looking for them..."

"If we are exposed...will we be implicated?"

Fang Long chuckled and said, "Qianqian, you don't understand."

"After today, we will be released from the novice protection mode, and the development from now on will be much more difficult than it is now."

"Although this group of hunters are crazy and evil, they are powerful enough and their members are spread all over the Ice Crystal Kingdom."

"We can definitely use their strength to quickly develop the territory."

"Then we can use our advantages to harvest other players. After reaching a certain level of strength, we can report these guys to the Ice Crystal Kingdom. It's like having the best of both worlds."

Hearing this, Fang Long's parents and the beautiful woman next to them all showed a look of realization in their eyes.

And there was admiration in the look he gave Fang Long.

"Brother Long, you are amazing. You can actually think of this method!"

The middle-aged man next to him also exclaimed: "He is worthy of being my son!"

Fang Long had a smile on his face and seemed to be enjoying his family's admiration very much.

The beautiful woman continued to whisper: "Brother Long, I heard that you sent someone to kill Cao Xing today?"

"He's already the highest-level person in District 174, so there shouldn't be any problems, right?"

Fang Long smiled and said, "What could go wrong?"

"This time, in order to show their sincerity in cooperation, the group of hunters actually sent out more than a dozen second-level hunters and three third-level assassins at once!"

"Tsk tsk! I'm so jealous! How great it would be if I had this power!"

"With this force, when the novice protection period ends tomorrow, I can destroy all the survivor camps within dozens of kilometers and force them to join our Three Heroes Association."

"Then I'll continue to expand. It won't be long before I have the final say over the entire 174th District!"

Fang Long's eyes were filled with strong longing, but he quickly shook his head, as he knew this was not very realistic.

"But this time, that brat will definitely not be able to escape, he is dead!"

His family members looked at each other and a look of relief appeared on their faces.

The beautiful woman also nodded.

Then he said hesitantly: "Brother Long... Although these hunters are very strong, I always feel that they have some bad intentions..."

"Also, that black-robed priest looked at me in a strange way..."

Fang Long's face froze.

He also noticed the naked look in the black-robed priest's eyes when he looked at Lan Qianqian.

But now they still have to rely on others' strength, and they dare not attack.

Fang Long reluctantly said a few words of comfort, telling Lan Qianqian not to worry.

Then just wait silently.

A few minutes later, Fang Long received a message.

"Boss, the target has appeared, it's Cao Xing for sure!"

"There is an elite second-level archer beside him."

Fang Long's expression suddenly brightened up, and he quickly replied: "Very good, it's just an elite archer, it's not a big problem."

"Next, you guys cooperate with the group of hunters. Don't worry about anything else and go all out to kill him!"

The other side replied: "Got it, Boss, we will take action immediately."

After closing the private chat, Fang Long had an expectant expression on his face.

Then wait for good news with your family.

However, not long after, Fang Long noticed again that the avatars in the friend list had dimmed.

Fang Long's expression suddenly changed.

"Damn it... Isn't it going to go wrong again this time?"

After thinking about it, Fang Long breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, only a few people died."

"That guy is very strong, so it's normal for him to have some casualties."

Fang Long comforted himself in this way.

But it didn't take long.

He saw that the avatars in his friend list dimmed one by one.

Most of the survivors he sent out have died!

At this moment, Fang Long only felt a chill rushing to his head!

"Damn it! What's going on?"

"With so many people trying to assassinate Cao Xing, how could they fail?"

Fang Long's family also noticed that something was wrong with his condition.

His mother asked, "Xiaolong, what happened?"

Fang Long didn't say anything, but his face became even more gloomy.

When he saw that the people he sent out were completely wiped out, he clenched his fists even harder.

At this moment, Fang Long walked out of the shelter, went straight to the lord's hut, and pushed open the door.

Seeing Fang Long coming in, the black-robed priest looked impatient and said, "Didn't I tell you? This place will be our temporary office in the future. You have to understand the rules."

However, Fang Long said with a sullen face: "The assassination attempt failed, and all our people were wiped out!"

Hearing this, the black-robed priest's face changed.

"What did you say?"

...At the same time, Cao Xing also cleaned up the battlefield.

Pick up all the items that dropped from the bodies of the hunters and survivors.

Cao Xing has accumulated:
【Coin】*2723
[Primary Power Heart] *3
[Dagger of the Night (Blue)]

【Standard machete (green)】*7
【Standard Iron Bow (Green)】*4
【Damaged wool coat】*4
【Damaged Linen Clothes】*7
[Dirty hat] *8
【Dry food】*241
In addition, the group of hunters exploded with some green weapons and three primary hearts of power.

Those who survived were all poor people.

Just take off a few tattered clothes.

Of course, this may be because they put all the resources in the territory storage box.

Unless we find their territory later and rob their storage boxes.

At this time, Cao Xing remembered something.

"These guys came with their families this time in order to kill me."

"After I wiped them out, many territories no longer have any lords and are in a state of being ownerless."

"If I can find the territory of these guys, I can not only plunder their territory for supplies, but I can also bring all their polar people here to increase my manpower!"

Cao Xing thought for a moment and came up with an idea.

So, Cao Xing looked at the several recruited creatures lying on the ground.

Originally eight people were left, but two more died due to excessive blood loss.

The remaining six were also in a dying state.

Three imperial soldiers, a boar warrior, and two female mage apprentices.

The levels are between 5 and 8.

Cao Xing walked over and said directly: "You just tried to assassinate me, so according to the rules, I will kill you and hang your bodies in my territory to warn those restless guys."

After hearing this, the imperial soldiers were fine.

The two female mages lying in a pool of blood raised their heads with difficulty and asked, "Will you...will you take off our clothes before hanging our bodies?"

They saw what Cao Xing did just now. He was truly a cruel lord who didn't even let go of those corpses!

Cao Xing nodded, "Of course, this is the rule."

Hearing this, the two female mages turned pale with fright, and they felt so aggrieved that they were about to cry.

They were just apprentices of the Melando Mage Association and were not very old before entering the summoning space.

A barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of Cao Xing's mouth.

Then he said, "But I know that you attacked me because you were driven by your lord."

"And I am a merciful lord."

"So now, I am willing to give you a choice, submit to me, or die."

Hearing this, the six recruited creatures lying on the ground looked at each other, and then they replied without hesitation: "We are willing to submit to you, the powerful lord!"

They were just ordinary creatures, and these survivors didn't stand much of a chance.

Unlike Cao Xing, who trained Assam from an ordinary creature to the leader level.

Therefore, their loyalty is not very high.

You know, even if the loyalty reaches 100, as long as the lord dies, the recruited creatures under him will surrender in order to survive.

Unless you are a die-hard fan like Assam.

In this way, even if the lord dies, Assam will fight to the end for the territory.

Cao Xing sent recruitment invitations to all of them.

A system prompt appears.

[Cantha Empire soldiers: Jantoro/Rakid/Yusef have joined your territory, territory population +3]

[Wild Boar Tribe Warrior: Blitz Reiner has joined your territory. Territory population +1]

[Melando Mage Association: Sylvia/Aili has joined your territory, territory population +2]

...

Cao Xing nodded in satisfaction, and then said to Liu Muxue: "Muxue, cast the Holy Healing Technique on them."

Liu Muxue walked over, raised the silver sword, and shot out beams of holy light energy.

At the same time, Cao Xing also raised his staff and cast [Ice Healing Spells] on them one by one.

These dying recruited creatures gradually recovered.

at the same time.

After seeing the battle here was over, the militiamen from Hog Village walked over cautiously.

"Sir?"

"What…what happened?"

The militia captain looked at Cao Xing and asked cautiously.

Cao Xing turned around, cleared his throat, and then said righteously: "Everyone, you have seen it all, these are hunters, those crazy guys."

"The others are also heretics of the Church of Light!"

"They tried to assassinate me, but they were all killed by my powerful men!"

"This evil church must be killed by everyone!"

Cao Xing seemed very indignant.

No matter what the reason behind the matter is, it is always right to put yourself on the side of justice first.

The villagers naturally knew the hunters' vicious reputation.

They did see the iconic masks of the guys on the ground.

The villagers recovered from their previous panic one by one, and their faces were filled with excitement.

The hunters who had frightened them before were all killed by this lord.

This shows how powerful the opponent is!
"My Lord, your power is comparable to that of the Empire's Earth Knights!"

"That's right, you are eliminating harm for the people!"

"The goddess of order will bless you..."

When the group of militiamen looked at Cao Xing, there was admiration on their faces.

A system prompt appears.

[You killed a group of hunters. The villagers of Hog Village witnessed your heroic deeds. The favorability of Hog Village has increased. Current status: Friendly]

(Note: After improving the favorability between forces, you will have a greater chance of triggering the special mission of the force, and when recruiting in the tavern, you will also have a higher chance of recruiting special personnel.)
Seeing the prompt, Cao Xing was delighted.

I didn't expect that this could also increase the favorability of the force.

The villagers didn't know the truth behind it. They only knew that it was this young lord who killed those crazy guys.

Of course, if it weren’t for Cao Xing’s words, the matter might have remained unresolved, and it might even have caused the villagers to fear him.

The world seems to be becoming more and more interesting, and different impacts can be brought about by his different actions.

The corners of Cao Xing's mouth curled up.

At the same time, an elderly man who looked about the same age as old Mel walked over quickly.

He looked very prestigious, and the surrounding villagers and militiamen actually took the initiative to make a path for him.

Cao Xing took a look at his attributes.

[Hogg Village Chief: Mardo Shak lv5]

[Level: First-order ordinary creature]

[HP: 280/280]

[Attack power: 24~27]

[Skills: Elementary Management, Erudition]

[Talent: None]

...

This is the village chief.

He was alarmed when the battle started.

However, because the battle scene between Cao Xing and others was too terrifying, the village chief, who was only level 5, didn't dare to get close at all.

It was not until the battle was over that the village chief dared to come to Cao Xing.

He also heard what Cao Xing said, so he asked in a low voice: "My Lord... why did this group of crazy cultists target you?"

Cao Xing shook his head and said, "It's a long story. It's probably because I saved a few innocent people from their hands, so they are keeping me in their sight."

He made up an excuse.

A look of realization appeared on the face of the chief of Hog Village.

"I see. This lord looks so young, but he has a kind heart and great strength. Your reputation will surely spread throughout the Snowstorm Plain in the near future!"

At this moment, all the militiamen in Hoge Village looked at Cao Xing with respect.

However, the two female mages behind Cao Xing curled their lips.

In their impression, Cao Xing is not kind at all.

He killed so many people in one breath without blinking an eye.

They also stripped off their clothes and hung their bodies on pillars.

Too cruel!

Cao Xing smiled and said, "Village Chief, I'll trouble you to deal with these corpses."

The head of Hog Village waved his hand and said, "No trouble, no trouble..."

"If it weren't for this warrior, we wouldn't have known that so many hunters had sneaked into Hog Village."

"It's just a small favor. If you have anything else to do, we in Hog ​​Village will definitely help you to the best of our ability."

Cao Xing thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Come to think of it, I do need the village chief's help with something..."
