Chapter 114: Murder and Arson Gold Belt (5000)

After opening Chen Xiaoping's relic box, Cao Xing nodded.

Just as he expected, there were large reserves of timber in this territory.

In addition, there is a warrior's skill book and a primary heart of power.

Cao Xing thought to himself, "It seems that Chen Xiaoping has developed quite well. She even prepared the Heart of Power for a breakthrough. Unfortunately, she made a wrong decision."

After taking away all the resources of this territory.

Cao Xing walked out of the lord's hut and came to the captured imperial archer.

In the other party's confused eyes, Cao Xing directly said: "As you can see, your lord tried to assassinate me, but I killed him instead."

"According to the rules, after she dies, everything in the territory will belong to me."

"So, are you willing to surrender?"

A hint of pain flashed across the Imperial archer's eyes.

"Is Chen Xiaoping still dead?"

"Alas... She is a lord who cares about her subordinates. I fight for her during the day, and at night, she will come to my room to wash away my fatigue from a day of fighting."

"She also told me that I would become the strongest archer in the Empire."

Cao Xing couldn't help but twitch his lips. No wonder this archer was so loyal. He must have been completely slept with.

"What's your choice?" Cao Xing asked again.

The imperial archer sighed and said, "Although this powerful lord, Chen Xiaoping, is dead, I have sworn to be loyal to her forever."

"So, you better let me go to hell with her."

After hearing this, Cao Xing didn't hesitate and winked at Sarah.

He knew that a recruited creature like this whose loyalty was almost at its maximum would be difficult to be subdued by other lords.

Sarah just slashed it with a knife.

【-twenty four】

The imperial archer's health points were reduced to zero, but at the end of his life, he had a longing smile on his face.

It is normal for a lord like this to develop a special relationship with his subordinates.

It's not just Chen Xiaoping. There are so many survivors around the world, and there are probably many similar situations.

Then, Cao Xing looked at the polar people.

He didn't need to say much, the group of polar people understood what he meant.

They immediately knelt down, "Mighty Lord, we are willing to submit to you!"

"As long as you are willing to give the polar people a meager amount of food, we can work for you."

Cao Xing nodded, "You guys go join the team first, I still have to go to a few places, and then I'll take you back to my territory."

"As you command, Lord Lord!"

The four polar men stood up and joined the other polar men.

Cao Xing directly declared the occupation of this territory.

Next, they continued on to the next location.

The mammoths were unstoppable.

In an hour, they captured two more camps.

They looted all the supplies and took away the polar people in the territory.

There are now 16 polar people in the team.

Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction.

Now there is only one last territory left to be occupied.

I glanced at the countdown above my head.

[Due to nightfall: 1 hours and 23 minutes...]

[Current temperature: -54℃]

"An hour and a half left?"

"enough!"

Cao Xing was determined.

Then he led the team non-stop to the area where the last territory was located.

Boom!dong dong!

The mammoth ran all the way and soon arrived at the target area.

This territory is located halfway up the mountain, easy to defend but difficult to attack.

What surprised Cao Xing even more was that there was actually a primary elemental arrow tower in this territory.

"Huh? They actually built an arrow tower?"

"It seems that this territory is developing well!"

In addition, Cao Xing also saw that there were 8 polar people and two imperial archers in this territory.

Cao Xing was immediately pleasantly surprised.

Including the number here, he can bring back 24 polar people directly this time!

This also shows that this lord's territory is well developed and there may be some good things in the storage box.

So Cao Xing gave the order directly: "Dabai, go!"

"Moo!"

The mammoth swung its trunk and rushed towards the territory.

Seeing Dabai coming so aggressively, the two imperial archers' faces suddenly changed.

"There is an enemy attack!"

"Be on guard! Guard our territory!"

However, when they saw the territory that once could block everything.

But after being passed through by the mammoth without any hindrance, his pupils suddenly shrank!
"call out!"

The elemental arrow tower shot out an arrow.

However, the arrows hit Dabai, making a crisp sound.

The first layer of holy shield was broken.

However, Dabai still has two layers of holy shield.

"Attack! Attack quickly!"

The two imperial archers quickly shot their arrows.

"Huh! Huh!"

Dabai's three layers of holy shield were all broken.

At this moment, Dabai crashed headfirst into the elemental arrow tower.

"Boom!"

【-twenty four】

This 15-meter-tall elemental arrow tower with a durability of 2000 points had its durability reduced by half in an instant.

"Moo-"

Following an upward thrust of the big white fangs.

"Boom!"

This elemental arrow tower was directly broken in half, and the tower body fell into the territory, also destroying the polar man’s hut and the blacksmith shop next to it.

"God is above! What a terrifying power this is!"

"It's too powerful. There's no way we can stop such a powerful mammoth."

The eight polar men and the two imperial archers were all stunned when they saw this scene.

At the same time, Sarah's shadow blade was placed on the necks of two imperial soldiers at the same time. As long as they made any movement, they would be killed instantly by Sarah.

It was not until this time that Cao Xing led Hilda and the group of polar people to slowly arrive.

This kind of battle doesn't require them to take action at all.

The two imperial archers asked with horror: "You, you, you...what are you going to do?"

Cao Xing looked at Liu Muxue next to him, "Muxue, explain to them."

Then he walked past the crowd and went straight into the lord's cabin.

[Discover the Lord: Teng Sanhu's relic box, do you want to open it? 】

"Yes."

[Open successfully]

[Get food*244]

[Obtain wood*1594]

[Get Stone*781]

[Obtain coal*142]

[Obtain Iron*51]

[Obtain wolf meat*32]

[Obtain skill book: Flying robot*1]

[Get masonry floor construction drawings]

[Obtain Ice Crystal*31]

[Get the small communication equipment production drawings]

……

A lot of system prompts.

"Haha, two blueprints and a skill book."

"This Teng Sanhu's territory really has much more resources than other territories!"

Cao Xing's face lit up and he nodded with satisfaction.

Then, he walked out of the lord's hut.

Outside, eight Polar Men and two Imperial Archers were on their knees.

Through Liu Muxue's explanation, they already knew that their lord Teng Sanhu was dead.

And this lord was willing to give them a chance to pledge their allegiance.

Cao Xing asked directly: "What do you think?"

The ten people looked at each other, and then said in unison: "Mighty Lord, we are willing to submit to you."

Cao Xing nodded and issued a recruitment application to the two imperial archers.

As for those polar people, he doesn't have enough people.

After returning, upgrade the lord's hut to level 3 and expand the population.

[Imperial Archers: Ganos/Wakaba joins your territory, territory population +2]

Cao Xing nodded.

So far, the territories of the five lords have all been taken over by him.

Under the absolute suppression of force, no accidents occurred.

The harvest can be said to be quite fruitful.

If the polar people were asked to collect various resources, it would take at least half a month.

If other lords were allowed to obtain these, the progress could be greatly accelerated.

In addition, I also got two skill books and three blueprints. It really deserves to be the gold belt for killing and arson!
Cao Xing couldn't help but sigh: "Looting other people's territories like this, the speed of obtaining resources is too fast!"

Then, he looked at the Blood Spider Queen and ordered, "Xilda, speed them up."

"We are preparing to return."

Xierda still had a look of disgust on her face.

I followed Cao Xing for a whole day today, especially in the last two hours, when I hardly stopped.

However, despite her disdain, Hilda still cast the [Queen's Will] on the newcomer again.

Cao Xing discovered that although this proud queen looked like she wanted to keep strangers away, she was actually not that dangerous.

Of course, this may be related to the lord contract between them.

If any other human dared to order her like this, he would probably have been swallowed by Hilda.

Cao Xing thought to himself, "I don't know what this woman likes. It's really hard to improve her favorability."

Shaking his head, he sat back on the mammoth's back and began to walk towards the territory.

This place is more than forty kilometers away from the territory.

At their speed, it would take more than an hour, and they would be able to get back to the territory before dark.

The team advanced in a mighty manner.

There were 24 polar men in total, all wearing thick cotton clothes and less than meters tall, looking like a team of dwarves.

Cao Xing noticed that among the eight polar people recruited from the last Teng Sanhu's territory, there was one who was obviously stronger and about 8 meters tall.

Look at his attributes.

[Polar Artificial Head: Duan lv3]

[HP: 240/240]

[Attack power: 15~18]

[Attributes: Strength 10, Agility 8, Spirit 8, Constitution 12]

[Skill: Basic architectural knowledge (accelerates construction by 20%)]

[Talent ①: Polar Constitution]

[Talent ②: Enthusiasm and Encouragement (Work efficiency +10% when leading other polar people to work together)]

...

Seeing Duan's attributes, Cao Xing's eyes suddenly lit up.

Another talent?
With this polar man leading other polar men in their work, work efficiency can actually be increased by 10%!
Although 10% may not be a lot, you have to know that he has 24 polar people at his disposal, plus Da Zhuang and others, that’s a total of 32.

So Cao Xing called out, "Duan."

The polar man was running madly behind the mammoth with gritted teeth, when he suddenly heard Cao Xing calling his name, his heart trembled.

The team gradually stopped.

There was some uneasiness on his weathered face, but he still forced a smile.

"This powerful lord, you called me?"

Cao Xing didn't say anything, but just threw him a whole roasted rabbit.

The tempting aroma of food instantly penetrated the nose of every polar person.

Although some polar people have tasted this delicacy, they still can't help drooling.

"My Lord, what is this?"

Duan was also surprised by the aroma of rabbit meat, but he did not lose his composure like the other polar people. Instead, he appeared very steady.

Cao Xing said: "This is rabbit meat that contains powerful strength and can increase your physical fitness."

"It will take some time to get back to my territory from here. You all need to recover some strength to avoid falling in the snow."

Hearing this, the polar man Duan immediately saluted respectfully.

"Thank you for your concern and gift, Lord!"

"We will contribute our own strength to build a prosperous territory for you!"

After saying that, Duan gave each polar person a piece of the rabbit meat in his hand.

Then he kept one piece for himself.

This scene made Cao Xing nod again.

The team continued on their way.

After eating rabbit meat, the physical fitness of all the polar people was greatly improved, and they no longer had to pant as much when running.

On the way, Cao Xing checked the properties of the four newly acquired drawings.

【Basic sled production drawings】

[Use the blueprint to make a sled that can accommodate 4 people. The moving speed depends on the strength and moving speed of the mount.]

[Armor: 10]

Durability: 200

[Materials required for production: Wood*20, Iron*5, Blacksmith Shop Level 1]

(Please drive safely.)
...

Cao Xing was delighted. "It's great to be able to ride a four-person sled. I can catch a few horses or tame some other wild animals later, and the transportation problem will be solved."

"However, the most convenient way is to make technological means of transportation. This thing does not require a mount and only consumes magic stones."

"But there are no such advanced drawings on the market now. We can only wait until the novice protection period ends and then have a look."

He began to look at the second drawing.

【Simple toilet production drawings】

[Armor: 5]

Durability: 100

【Area: 20 square meters】

[Materials required for construction: wood*50, stone*20, iron*5]

[Drawing description: With this drawing, you can build a simple toilet in the territory, which has a primary sewage treatment system and can convert feces into fertilizer]

(A simple toilet, but it can also make your territory cleaner.)
...

This blueprint was found by him in the third territory.

Cao Xing nodded, "Yes, a toilet is also a necessary building for a mature territory."

"And as the population of my territory grows, eating, drinking, defecating and urinating becomes a big problem every day."

"Now Dazhuang and his friends just find a piece of snow to solve the problem, but if this continues for a long time, I'm afraid that my territory will be filled with feces and all kinds of stench."

"Build it! We must build it! And build more than one!"

Cao Xing made up his mind and started working on the third drawing.

【Masonry floor construction drawings】

[Footprint: 1 meter long * 1 meter wide * 30 cm thick]

Durability: 100

[Materials required for construction: Stone*2]

[Blueprint introduction: With this blueprint, you can create a brick and stone floor, speed up the travel time of the people and various means of transportation, and improve the prosperity of the territory. ]

……

【Drawings for small communication device production】

[Durability: 100]

[Maximum communication distance: 320 km]

[Materials required for production: electronic component*1, copper*5, mithril*1]

[Drawing description: A simple communication device that can be used to keep in touch with one's subjects or subordinates.]

...

When he saw the last drawing, Cao Xing's face showed strong joy again!
This thing is also a good thing.

Survivors can contact each other directly through the system functions, and can even make voice and video calls, which is very convenient.

But with his subjects, he could only communicate face to face.

With this thing, Cao Xing can let Assam and the others go out, command them remotely, and learn about their movements.

The real realization lies in the home upgrade.

"However, this thing requires electronic components, and electronic components need to be made in a level 3 mechanical factory."

"Let's see if we can find the drawings of the machinery factory in the market after we get back."

Cao Xing studied all four drawings.

Time flies and half an hour has passed.

There were no accidents along the way.

And they have gradually returned to the vicinity of the territory.

Cao Xing and Liu Muxue sat on the tall back of the mammoth.

From afar, I could see a territory surrounded by towering walls on the snowy ground ahead.

There was a bright fire burning inside, illuminating many buildings.

In addition, there are more than a dozen tower buildings that are fifteen or sixteen meters high.

There are three lighthouses, four watchtowers, and six primary elemental arrow towers.

Through the three-meter-high city wall, one can clearly feel the power of those elemental arrow towers.

At this moment, the thick iron door was closed.

The prototype of a war fortress has been taken shape.

People living in it can feel completely safe.

"Not bad, not bad. Dazhuang and the others work very hard."

Cao Xing was not wrong.

Although it takes 20 minutes to build a city wall, this does not include the time for rest and meals.

It was obvious that Da Zhuang and his team did not have a moment's rest. Except for eating something in the middle, they devoted all their time to work.

Cao Xing is very satisfied with this group of hardworking polar people.

The eight newly recruited creatures and the 24 polar people behind him all had expressions of intense surprise in their eyes.

Duan, the polar man, exclaimed: "Goddess of the Earth! Is this really the territory of this lord? It has such a vast area and thick walls!"

The imperial soldiers and archers were equally shocked.

Rakid was shocked and said, "Looking at this scale, I even thought I had mistakenly entered a baron's territory!"

The polar man Duan said respectfully: "Dear Lord, you have a prosperous territory. Thank you for allowing us to join your territory!"

The other newcomers also nodded in agreement.

All the unpleasant emotions that had been forcibly suppressed by Cao Xing and forced to return to the territory by force, disappeared at this moment!
Compared to the territory where they lived before, there were only a few scattered small houses and a barely maintained campfire.

The territory before us is simply an ideal place, one is in heaven and the other is in hell!
Seeing the expressions on these people's faces, Cao Xing also showed joy on his lips.

"Let's go back to the territory."

After saying that, Cao Xing led his team to the edge of the territory.

The thick iron door recognized Cao Xing's identity as a lord and opened automatically.

Cao Xing also opened up permissions to the polar people behind him and brought them in.

At this moment, the two newly joined imperial soldiers and the 20 polar people looked at everything around them with curiosity and excitement in their eyes!
