Chapter 151 The battle is over and everyone is promoted!
Cao Xing's level soared directly to level 17, and he was extremely excited!
At this moment, he found that there were only two drops of Moon Dew left in his backpack.
"Shit, the magic is almost gone!"
He had the last two drops for emergency use and couldn't use them all.
Thinking of this, Cao Xing looked at the other people on the battlefield.
In addition to Cao Xing, the attacks of Assam, Andrew and others also slowed down.
After all, they are not robots and cannot fight at high intensity for several hours in a row.
Moreover, even robots will suffer from metal fatigue.
Not only that, as more and more ice nest monsters appeared, Cao Xing's men could no longer be completely foolproof.
Some of the ice nest monsters have already rushed to the city wall and started attacking it.
The elemental arrow tower is constantly shooting arrows to attack.
Cao Xing knew that he had to destroy part of the ice nest, otherwise in a few hours, thousands of monsters would attack at the same time every minute.
He was just about to rush back to kill the ice nest monster under the city wall first.
But then I saw a figure over two meters tall falling from the sky with a huge axe on his back!
"Boom!"
She chopped down with her axe, directly chopping five or six ice nest monsters to pieces!
It was the new member Putana who also joined the battle.
This woman has the strength of a level 17 elite, which is quite strong.
Cao Xing glanced at her and nodded.
"Sarah, go blow up those ice nests."
"Andrew, switch to bear form and hold on for a while."
"Dabai, you come with me too!"
After he finished speaking, Cao Xing led his men and rushed to the place where hundreds of ice nests had fallen.
Soon, they launched attacks on these ice nests.
"Boom! Boom boom!"
The Ice Nest has a durability of 2000 points.
Cao Xing had to throw out two or three balls of evil fire to destroy an ice nest. At the same time, he had to take into account the attacks of the ice nest monsters, and he seemed a little flustered.
However, with Baymax and Sarah joining the battlefield.
These ice nests were blown up by them in large pieces!
Bang!Bang bang!
One ice nest after another was destroyed directly by Cao Xing.
The number of ice nest monsters hatched in each wave gradually decreases.
The pressure on Assam and others suddenly eased a lot.
The battle began in the fourth hour.
After resting for an hour, the group of Ascalon soldiers had almost recovered their strength.
They rushed out again to join the battle.
The battle lasted from nightfall until late at night.
...
at the same time.
Near Cao Xing's territory, the other survivors realized something after no ice nest fell in the previous hour.
They also saw announcements in the chat channel and reminders from other survivors.
While feeling lucky, he quickly sent out polar people to mine resources under the cover of night.
Or they go out to kill monsters themselves and replenish the supplies in the territory.
Although the temperature was low at night, they knew that this was a rare opportunity.
...
late at night.
With the last ice nest being destroyed by Cao Xing.
His and Liu Muxue's levels were raised again, and both of them have reached level 18.
Including other territory members.
Those Ascalon soldiers were all upgraded to level 10, which is the maximum level of the first level.
The first-tier team members including Assam, Andrew, and Renis have all been upgraded to level 20, the maximum level of the second stage.
Hilda, Braum and the others have also reached level 16 or 17.
Although this battle was very tiring.
But there is no doubt that the harvest is also quite terrifying.
And the most important thing is that Cao Xing saw materials all over the floor.
Those are all ice dragon marks and glacier fragments!
"Get rich, get rich!"
“I wonder how much materials I can harvest this time!”
Cao Xing suppressed the joy in his heart and then came out of his demon transformation state.
"Everyone, tonight's battle is over."
"You are all the bravest warriors!"
Hearing this, Asam was the first to respond: "You are also the most versatile lord I have ever seen. Not only do you have strong command capabilities, but you also have strong combat power!"
The other soldiers responded one after another, "Yes, you are a great lord, we are proud of you!"
Cao Xing smiled and said, "Our logistics staff have prepared the post-war meal. You should all go back to the cafeteria to eat, replenish your energy, and then go back to rest."
"You can just hand it over to someone else."
After hearing this, Assam and others nodded and returned to their territory.
They were indeed hungry.
Then, Cao Xing looked at the group of polar people.
"Da Zhuang, bring some people over to clean up the battlefield and collect everything!"
"Okay, sir, I'll be there right away!"
Upon hearing the order, Da Zhuang slid down from the city wall quickly, and then began to clean up the battlefield with a group of polar people.
Before long, the battlefield within a radius of one or two kilometers was completely cleaned up.
A group of polar people piled up a large amount of ice dragon marks, glacier fragments and other materials into small hills, waiting for Cao Xing to collect them.
Cao Xing walked over and collected all the materials on the ground.
System prompts keep appearing.
Then, Cao Xing took a look at the harvest.
[Obtain: Ice Dragon Mark*43167]
[Obtain: Glacier Fragment*23731]
More than 40,000 ice dragon marks!
A look of ecstasy appeared in Cao Xing's eyes.
"As expected, the double explosion rate! This wave of Ice Dragon Marks alone is enough for me to exchange for more than 40 Hearts of Strength."
"If I come again, I can even exchange it for a golden treasure chest!"
However, in the golden treasure chest, there is a high probability of finding golden equipment exclusive to the Ice Dragon series.
Cao Xing even wanted to do it again on the spot.
Of course, after such a high-intensity battle, he also needs to take a break.
Moreover, Cao Xing didn't have any extra [Ice Dragon Horns] on hand.
Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Liu Muxue beside him.
At this moment, she had experienced several hours of fighting and killed countless ice nest monsters, and her whole body was full of heroic spirit.
Plus her beautiful facial features and knight outfit.
It has a rather heroic flavor.
Cao Xing said, "Let's go, Mu Xue, let's go back to sleep."
When Liu Muxue heard Cao Xing's voice, she also withdrew from that fighting state.
"okay."
Then, the two of them returned to the lord's cabin together.
In the familiar room, waves of warm air wafted in.
The polar man Duan has installed magic water purification devices in every room.
Cao Xing and Liu Muxue took a nice hot bath.
Then, the two of them fell asleep in each other's arms.
Nothing happened in the second half of the night.
Because of the high-intensity fighting in the first half of the night, everyone felt exhausted.
Even with a beautiful woman in his arms, he seemed powerless.
...
...
The next day...
Cao Xing hugged the sweet and soft Liu Muxue and slept until eight o'clock the next day!
A system prompt appears.
[Survivors, please note that you have passed the second day of the official period, and the level of the Ice Nest monster has increased slightly. 】
[Weather forecast: In the evening, the snowy plain will usher in a moderate snowfall, please work together to arrange your travel time. ]
...
They both opened their eyes at the same time, with smiles on their faces.
After a night's rest, they had shaken off last night's fatigue and became full of energy.
After a simple wash.
Cao Xing took Liu Muxue out of the lord's cabin.
At this moment, most of the people in the territory have already started working.
Some were laying brick and stone floors, others were repairing the walls that had been attacked by the Icebrood yesterday.
The chief citizen Cao Yi has already started to lead people to repair the railroad tracks outside the territory.
Cao Xing nodded in satisfaction. "Not bad, not bad. These days, the people in the territory have adapted to the development rhythm of the territory."
"Now they know what to do today without my instructions."
At this time, Liu Muxue whispered: "Axing, are we going to stay in the territory today?"
Cao Xing shook his head and said, "We have to go out today. We are going to the Witch Forest to look for the Ice Luan Flower."
"Ice Luan Flower?"
Cao Xing chuckled and said, "Yes, this is a magical plant. It is more important to me."
Liu Muxue nodded slightly. Just when Cao Xing was about to call all the combatants to gather together.
The dwarf Harold took the initiative to come over.
He looked at Cao Xing and said respectfully, "Lord, please start arranging work for me."
"My wife and I can see that this is a strong and equal territory, and we also want to contribute our own strength to the development of the territory!"
Cao Xing looked at Harold's loyalty, which had reached 76.
It seems that last night's battle has increased Harold's loyalty.
"Mr. Harold, thank you for your help. I believe that with your joining, our territory will become more prosperous!"
Harold straightened up immediately.
Then, Cao Xing brought the dwarf blacksmith to the blacksmith shop.
The current blacksmith shop has been upgraded to level 3, and can even mass-produce fine iron equipment, that is, blue quality equipment.
But he didn't have the blueprints for blue equipment, so he could only make green equipment for the soldiers first.
However, although it is just green equipment, it is much better than the white equipment worn by those soldiers.
Then, Cao Xing took out a large number of wolf bones, wild boar bones, and wolf fangs.
Wow!
There were so many bones that they piled up on the ground into a small hill.
"Mr. Harold, use these materials to make new armor for our soldiers."
"As for these fangs, see if you can sharpen them and make them into arrows. We don't have enough arrows in our territory."
Hearing this, Harold immediately patted his chest and assured: "No problem, Lord, these equipment are just a piece of cake for me, I can finish them all before dark."
"By the way, Lord, you can just call me Harold."
Cao Xing's face showed joy after hearing this, this efficiency is really high, he is worthy of being an intermediate forging master!
Then, Cao Xing took out several hundred large teeth of the ice and snow bombing rabbit that he had obtained last time.
"Harold, what can you do with this?"
Harold picked up the big tooth that had been polished to a shine, thought for a moment and said, "This kind of rabbit tooth is quite hard. The common practice is to sharpen it and make it into a gun tip, but..."
"But my suggestion is to piece them together and make a set of armor."
Cao Xing was stunned after hearing this, "Oh? This can also be made into armor?"
After all, the system introduction of this material only says that it can be used to make gun tips or sold to merchants.
Harold nodded. "Yes, we can use the same manufacturing process as fish scale armor and improve it. It should have good defensive capabilities."
Cao Xing nodded suddenly.
Indeed, he had some preconceived ideas and thought that what the system said was absolute.
Since the update, the world seems more real.
For many things, you can go beyond the framework of the system and use your imagination to research more functions.
Cao Xing received a lot of inspiration from Harold.
Then, he took out the [Sharp Claw (Green)] and [Sharp Claw (Blue)] that exploded from the Soul Eater.
Then he asked, "Harold, what can these two things be made of?"
Harold held the Soul Eater's claw, examined it carefully and said, "My Lord, this kind of claw has been finalized, and its conventional use is to make a rope hook or to make a trap.
"But before, I saw a method in a book that can improve the regular rope hook and make it into a catapult hook."
"Ejecting hook?"
Harold nodded and said, "Yes, when using it, it can be ejected instantly, hooking an enemy more than ten meters away, or even dozens of meters away, and controlling the opponent."
Cao Xing's eyes lit up instantly.
Oh my god, this is good stuff!
If each soldier has one grappling hook, and the rope of the grappling hook is strong enough, they can even forcibly control some large wild animals.
He was pleasantly surprised and said, "Harold, you are such a wise blacksmith."
Harold shook his head and said modestly, "Practice makes perfect, sir. I am just talking on paper."
"Also, to ensure the toughness of the hook, some tough and lightweight material is needed to replace the rope."
Cao Xing nodded, "Okay, I understand. I'll keep an eye out when I go out today."
Then, he took out the [Large Hook (Purple)] that exploded from the Soul Eater leader.
"Harold, what does this do?"
Looking at this huge claw that is more than seventy centimeters long.
There was also a hint of surprise in Harold's eyes.
"It's a very hard material, and it's also very sharp. Just based on the sharpness of this material, as long as the force is strong enough, it can even easily cut through the skin of a third-level creature!"
Hearing this, Cao Xing's eyes also showed admiration.
Harold was right. These large claws exploded from the third-level boss monsters and were extremely sharp and hard.
Harold seemed to be thinking about what to make with these claws.
After a moment, Harold said, "My idea is to make it into a sickle!"
"sickle?"
"Yes."
Harold nodded and said, "Using the sharpness of this hook, we can create a sickle with great lethality."
"Give it to those warriors, and it will greatly increase their destructive power on the battlefield."
Cao Xing seemed to have thought of this as well.
The shape of this large hook does resemble a sickle.
And he only has eight large claws on his hands.
We can barely form a sickle squad.
Cao Xing nodded and said, "Then do as you say, Harold."
"Okay, Lord."
Harold continued, "However, this kind of high-grade material takes a long time to make. Maybe only three or four can be made in a day."
Cao Xing nodded, "It's okay Harold, take your time."
"When you get tired of forging, take a break and read a book. It is important to combine work and rest."
Hearing this, Harold also had a gentle smile in his eyes, "Thank you for your concern, you are really a considerate lord."
Cao Xing patted him on the shoulder and walked out of the blacksmith shop.
...
After arriving outside the territory, Cao Xing shouted again, "Fighters, assemble!"
Hear Cao Xing's order.
More than a hundred people gathered together.
Assam and others, as well as 102 Ascalon soldiers, were all looking at Cao Xing with a firm gaze, waiting for his orders at any time.
Cao Xing nodded, and then said: "Today, we are going out for a trip."
"Work in the territory continues as usual."
"Assam, Andrew, Bron, Hilda, Renis, Sarah, Brot..."
"Seven of you come out with me today."
The seven people named by Cao Xing are the backbone of his territory.
The few people he named had happy looks in their eyes, and seemed to feel honored to go out to fight with Cao Xing.
Especially the Black Smoke Shaman Blot. I didn't bring him with me when I went out the past few days, which made him a little resentful.
And now, there was only excitement in Blot's eyes.
He bowed slightly and said respectfully: "It is my honor to fight for you, respected lord."
Of course, only the arrogant Hilda showed disdain.
Cao Xing nodded and looked at the two centaurs again.
"Kantel, Kandal, your mission today is to each lead twenty Ascalon soldiers in two waves to explore the resource points or monsters within ten kilometers around our territory."
"If you encounter an enemy you cannot defeat, remember to escape immediately."
"If you kill some wild animals, bring their bodies back to the territory and I will come back to deal with them."
The two centaurs said respectfully, "As you command, powerful lord!"
"We will complete the task you assigned us!"
Then Cao Xing looked at Ilena again.
"Ilena, today you have to lead 20 Ascalon soldiers, as well as Blitz and others, to protect our people in the wild while they mine resources. We cannot let them be attacked by other wild beasts or ice nest monsters."
The beautiful snake girl spit out her tongue, and with resentment in her eyes, she said, "My Lord, can't you take Ilena with you to fight?"
Cao Xing shook his head and said, "There are enough people outside. In comparison, the territory needs you more. This way you can help me better. Do you understand, Ilena?"
Hearing this, Ilena smiled brightly.
She raised the trident in her hand and said, "Okay, dear lord, I will protect those polar people."
Cao Xing nodded, then looked at the archer next to him.
"Little Elisa."
Hearing Cao Xing's voice, Elisa, who was daydreaming, suddenly brightened up.
"My Lord! Elisa didn't steal the milk from the Cloud Yak. It was the milk that slipped into my mouth at night!"
“Wow, don’t punish Elisa…”
Cao Xing rolled his eyes. He didn't even ask, but Elisa confessed on her own initiative.
Come to think of it, if she hadn’t said it, Cao Xing wouldn’t have known that this little girl actually went out to secretly drink milk at night.
Cao Xing said speechlessly: "Alright, I won't pursue the matter of you stealing milk."
"Today you will lead your own team of archers, as well as the other 40 Ascalon warriors. I will also give Ellie and Sylvia to your command."
"Your mission is to kill the ice nest monsters that have landed near the territory and not let any monsters attack our city walls."
"If you do well, I'll give you a reward when you come back in the evening."
When she heard about the reward, Elisa’s eyes lit up.
She said excitedly: "Wow! Another reward? That's great!"
"Don't worry, Lord. Elisa promises to complete the mission and will not let a single Icebrood monster come to the foot of our city wall!"
Cao Xing also laughed, and then said: "Okay, let's take action and do as I say."
More than a hundred people dispersed in several groups.
At this time, Xia Yanni and Tong Chuchu were standing by and whispered, "Sir... the furs you gave me have been processed. Is there anything else we can do?"
Tong Chuchu brought Volibear and said excitedly: "Big brother, please give us a task as well!"
Cao Xing shook his head with a gentle smile on his face.
"You have worked hard. I know you have been working late these days to make those furs. You can take a rest now."
