Chapter 227 After the disaster, massive construction begins!
I heard from others that Cao Xing’s pricing is relatively expensive.
The survivor of Area 174 immediately retorted: "This price is very fair, okay? Others are selling them for six or seven hundred each now."
"Yes, yes, Boss Cao Xing's values have always been close to the people."
"Stop talking, brothers, hurry up and grab them, there are only 500 sets, if you are slow they will be gone!"
As more and more people rushed out of the lord's hut.
500 sets of cotton coats were sold out in less than two minutes!
After all, there are more than 17 people in District now.
And many people buy more than one set.
Therefore, Cao Xing’s cotton coats were sold out in a short period of time.
Looking at the [Sold Out] displayed above, the survivors who failed to get a ticket wailed.
"Damn, you guys are too fast. I rushed out in such heavy snow without even wearing pants, but I still couldn't get the goods from you."
"Haha! I got two sets. Now my daughter won't have to suffer from the cold!"
"I got 3 sets, that's great, luckily I'm from District 174, Boss Cao Xing really loves us, haha."
At this moment, people from other districts were envious.
They could naturally see Cao Xing's care for the survivors in Area 174.
"I'm so envious. Boss Cao Xing is so nice to the people in his district."
"Yeah... Unlike those guys in our district, they only think about how to suck blood from us and would like to sell a piece of bread for 50 Ice Dragon Marks!"
"I think I understand why the brothers in District 174 respect Boss Cao Xing so much..."
...
...
At this moment, those who grabbed the cotton coats were overjoyed.
And Cao Xing also had a surprised smile on his face!
Because through this transaction, he directly obtained 30 Ice Dragon Marks!
The number of his [Ice Dragon Marks] has officially reached 39!
"Very good, I only need the last 11 Ice Dragon Marks to exchange for the legendary Bright Moon Treasure Chest!"
"I wonder what can be found in this treasure chest."
There was an expectant look in Cao Xing's eyes, and he even wanted to make another deal on the spot.
But unfortunately, he didn't have enough cotton clothes.
He kept the rest for himself.
Not enough, he made enough money from this transaction.
Even Cao Xing himself did not expect that these cotton clothes could be sold at such a high price.
The last 11 Ice Dragon Marks can be earned back by taking a medium Ice Dragon Horn challenge.
He returned to the room satisfied.
Then, in the howling snowy wind, Cao Xing lay in the warm quilt, and fell asleep peacefully with the beauty in his arms.
...
...
The next day.
The system prompt appears as expected.
[Survivors, please note that you have passed the 10th day of the official period. 】
[Weather forecast: The snowstorm will continue today and is expected to last all day. Please reduce going out and be careful to prevent natural disasters caused by severe weather. ]
...
In the lord's hut.
Cao Xing and Liu Muxue woke up at the same time.
The two looked at each other.
Liu Muxue whispered, "Axing, this snowstorm seems to be going to last all day. Should we not go out?"
Cao Xing nodded and said, "Yes, not only can we not leave the house, but the development of the territory will also come to a halt."
Obviously, it was extremely dangerous for Dazhuang and his team to go out and build houses in such bad weather.
"But it doesn't matter. We can just stay in the room today and go out after the snowstorm stops."
Liu Muxue nodded slightly.
After saying that, Cao Xing dialed the communication device on his ear.
Then he informed his subjects that they didn't need to come out to work today.
All work in the territory is suspended, including the collection of resources and the construction of territory facilities.
When you are hungry, go to the cafeteria to eat some bread and try to reduce going out.
All the subjects obeyed the order and stayed in their rooms obediently.
Including Cao Xing and Liu Muxue, no one went out either.
Just hide in your own warm lord's cottage.
When I was hungry, I took out roasted rabbit, bacon, bread, milk, etc. from my backpack.
Life is pretty comfortable.
The blizzard outside didn't seem to have any effect on them.
...
...
At this time, about a hundred kilometers away from Cao Xing, there was a territory of considerable size.
There is a level 4 lord's hut, a level 8 big bonfire, and many residential houses.
Almost all the basic buildings have been built.
Under normal circumstances, this kind of territory would have no problem dealing with some bad weather.
But it's a blizzard now.
The howling wind grew stronger and stronger.
Some [primary sentry towers] in the territory kept shaking, and after holding on for a while, they completely broke.
Then it fell directly down.
"Boom! Boom!"
The roof of a two-story residential building was smashed through, and the polar people inside were terrified.
There were even two unlucky guys who were smashed to death on the spot.
A man holding a big sword quickly rushed out of the lord's hut.
It was Wu Xinghu.
He saw the system notification of the Polar Man’s death.
Seeing this scene, Wu Xinghu's face changed.
"Damn it! If I had known, I wouldn't have built the sentry tower and the elemental arrow tower so close to the residential buildings!"
But he also knew that there was nothing he could do about it, as no one expected the snowstorm to hit suddenly.
It looked like several elemental arrow towers were about to be blown down.
Wu Xinghu quickly ordered all the survivors in the territory to come out and quickly demolish the arrow tower and other high-rise buildings nearby and repair the damaged houses in the territory.
After receiving the order, a group of people quickly got out of the room.
Working in the territory in the midst of a howling snowstorm.
at the same time.
The same scene was played out in all the major territories.
In some territories, high-rise buildings such as sentry towers and elemental arrow towers were blown down one after another.
But they don't have Cao Xing's territorial strength.
The damage is getting worse.
The survivors are doing their best to survive.
Even the chat channel that used to be lively has become a little deserted.
...
...
On the other side, from a slightly smaller territory, a young-looking girl quickly emerged.
Her territory was also affected by the blizzard.
And because her territory was near a forest, the strong wind blew down the big trees and also knocked down the buildings in her territory, causing widespread damage.
Seeing this scene, Qiu Yating frowned slightly, and a solemn look appeared on her youthful face.
A hint of hesitation flashed across Qiu Yating's eyes.
In the strong wind, she said to herself: "Should I use the power of the crystal ball?"
"Although this thing is powerful, its consumption is too horrible. It consumes a lot of my resources every time I use it."
After struggling for a moment, Qiu Yating bit her lower lip lightly, as if she had made a decision.
She quickly pulled a blue crystal ball out of her backpack and held it high above her head.
As she opened her red lips, she seemed to be chanting some spell.
The crystal ball began to emit a dazzling blue light.
The next moment, a layer of blue energy shield seemed to appear out of thin air in the entire territory.
"Buzz!"
This blue energy shield blocked the wind and snow.
Qiu Yating breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, it was blocked. Although the consumption of this crystal ball is terrifying, the power contained in it is also very strong."
"It's really an orange quality item!"
...
...
Time passes slowly...
In the blink of an eye, it was dusk.
Cao Xing looked outside from the window.
The howling wind finally showed signs of weakening.
Even the snowfall has decreased to some extent.
This gave everyone hope.
The snowstorm finally stopped at one or two in the morning.
The chat channel was filled with cheers.
Because they finally survived this terrible snowstorm!
Became a survivor.
Cao Xing glanced at the number of people online.
[Area 17 online users: 208315/229713]
...
Excluding the survivors who died in previous encounters with various monsters, this blizzard took the lives of nearly 20,000 people.
You know, these more than 20,000 people are elites who survived two updates, but they still couldn't make it.
This shows how cruel the various types of bad weather are in this world. After two days of exhaustion, the survivors can finally have a good night's sleep.
Including Cao Xing, everyone fell asleep quickly.
...
...
Nothing happened that night and everyone fell into a deep sleep.
The next day...
The familiar system prompt appears again.
[Survivors, please note that you have passed the 11th day of the official period. The snowstorm has stopped today. This afternoon, the power of the dragon will descend again near your territory. Please hurry up and repair your destroyed buildings to resist the attack of the ice nest.]
[Please note! Although the survivors have successfully survived this blizzard, this is not the most serious natural disaster in the world. Due to various factors, there may be more serious natural disasters such as "erosion snowstorm" and "cold wind" in the future. Please be prepared to deal with them. ]
[Weather forecast: The wind and snow have stopped, and the temperature today will be between -47℃ and -56℃, which is suitable for building houses and development. ]
...
Seeing the system prompts, all survivors understood one thing.
That is, the snowstorm is not the most serious natural disaster, and there are more severe challenges waiting for them.
However, at least this time, they managed to survive and gained a lot of time for development.
The survivors seized the time, quickly walked out of the lord's hut, and raced against time to build the territory.
Cao Xing also looked at the beauty next to him, and said, "Let's go, Mu Xue."
"Go out and see the extent of the damage to our territory."
Hearing this, Liu Muxue frowned slightly, then nodded slightly.
In the past two nights, Cao Xing also heard the sound of several watchtowers collapsing in the territory.
Apparently, even their territory had sustained some damage.
After a simple wash, the two quickly walked out of the lord's cabin.
"call--"
A cool breeze blew in my face.
All you see is the white snow, a blanket of silver.
Except for the central area within the territory, other peripheral areas are covered with snow.
Even the city walls were covered with thick snow.
Outside the territory, the thickness of the snow has reached an incredible level.
This snowstorm seemed to bury the entire world.
At this moment, a large number of residents have walked out of their houses and are waiting quietly outside the lord's cabin.
They all knew that the lord would come out soon to arrange today's work.
As the two familiar figures appeared, the people in the community all showed joy in their eyes.
They said respectfully, "My Lord, I wish you good health."
"Madam Lord, may you be as beautiful as the stars in the sky."
In response to their greetings, Cao Xing nodded.
Then he glanced at his territory.
He discovered that several [lighthouses] had been blown down, collapsing several two-story residential buildings.
Fortunately, those residential buildings are vacant and no one lives in them.
Several [Watchtowers] and [Ice Arrow Towers] collapsed, damaging the city walls.
Just repairing these buildings will require a lot of resources.
Fortunately, Cao Xing had collected a lot of information in the previous few rounds.
There are still plenty of resources in the territory.
Cao Xing sighed secretly, "It's OK. My territory was not seriously damaged. Only a few sentry towers and elemental arrow towers collapsed."
So he gave the order directly: "Cao Yi."
"My Lord, I am here."
Cao Xing said: "Today you lead a group of staff to shovel the snow off the city wall first."
“Then go outside the territory, clear the snow from our railway tracks, and restore the resource extraction system in our territory.”
Hearing this, the chieftain Cao Yi said respectfully: "As you command, Lord!"
Then, Cao Xing looked at the tall polar man again.
"Duan, today the task of repairing these buildings in the territory is left to you."
"Including the city walls, arrow towers, and residential houses, etc."
Duan patted his chest and assured: "No problem, respected lord!"
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
Cao Xing looked at the soldiers again and continued, "All wild boar warriors and all Ascalon warriors."
More than 200 fighters suddenly straightened their bodies and looked at Cao Xing firmly.
"After noon today, the ice nest will continue to descend near our territory."
"The snow outside the territory is too thick, which is not conducive to fighting. Your mission is to clear the snow near the territory and create a safe fighting environment."
After listening to Cao Xing's words, all the fighters said respectfully.
"Follow your orders! Promise to complete the mission!"
At this moment, everyone in the territory has their own tasks.
They dispersed one after another and began to get busy.
Cao Xing called Juliet and Neve.
The three of them came to the pale tree together.
Cao Xing discovered that the snowstorm in the past two days did not have any impact on the plants in the territory.
Even the planted [Moon Condensation Flowers], [Spiritual Breath Grass], etc. are growing healthily.
Including the three ancient war trees next to them, they also successfully withstood the influence of the weather and entered a dormant state.
Cao Xing was surprised and asked: "Is this the power of the Pale Tree?"
"Plants growing near this big tree don't have to worry about being affected by bad weather."
Hearing this, Little Niv next to him said excitedly: "Yes, yes, the Pale Sacred Tree is very magical!"
"If we can restore a little bit of the divine power of this sacred tree, its power can not only protect the plants, but even the entire territory from being affected by those natural disasters!"
The little girl had a proud look on her face.
Cao Xing also smiled.
If there was a chance, he also wanted to restore this sacred tree to its former power.
However, despite this, the current Pale Holy Tree is already very strong. After all, it has such abnormal group life bonus and recovery bonus.
All of his various acceleration resources are now supplied to this pale sacred tree first.
Thinking of this, Cao Xing took out two fist-sized objects from his backpack. They were shining brightly, like green agate.
There is a strong vitality contained in it.
After seeing what Cao Xing's hand held, the sisters' beautiful pupils gradually widened.
This thing is exactly the leader-level human-faced tree heart.
Little Niv exclaimed: "So... so big..."
Cao Xing smiled and said, "Juliette, this is a higher level tree heart. Now use it on this sacred tree."
"Yes, your Excellency."
Juliet nodded slightly with a faint smile on her face, and then she gently smashed the heart of the human-faced tree.
"Ding!"
A crisp cracking sound was heard.
All the pure life force contained in the two green agates flowed into the trunk of the Pale Tree.
"Wow... Wow..."
The branches of the Pale Tree began to move.
There was a familiar vibration under my feet, which was a sign that the Pale Tree was growing rapidly.
Including the three ancient war trees next to them, in order to resist the blizzard, the ancient war trees will adjust their bodies to a dormant state.
Now they have all begun to wake up gradually.
At this moment, the powerful vitality contained in the two human-faced tree hearts was quickly absorbed by the pale holy tree.
Its torso began to rise rapidly.
"Crash..."
The dense branches and leaves began to dance.
Including the ground is constantly rising.
When all the noise subsided.
The Pale Tree has grown to 23 meters high, becoming the tallest building in the entire territory.
The trunk is one meter in diameter and has a dense crown.
Even outside the territory, everyone can see this pale sacred tree at a glance.
The invisible waves filled the entire territory with a sacred atmosphere.
At the same time, the system prompt appears.
[Your territory plant: Pale Tree has gained accelerated growth, this acceleration time is: 12 years]
[Life bonus blessing effect increased by 12%, growth acceleration blessing effect increased by 12%]
...
At this moment, Cao Xing only felt a strong vitality rushing into his body again.
In an instant, the blood volume increased a lot!
Cao Xing said happily: "Good, good, good!"
"The Pale Tree can now give me an additional 44% of vitality and an additional 44% of recovery!"
You know, Cao Xing's current [Ice Therapy] can restore more than 1300 health points per second.
Combined with this 12% increase, the replies per second can reach 1417.
Including Andrew's [Life Bloom], it will also get a significant improvement!
now.
Neve and Juliette looked at the pale holy tree in front of them with joy.
Then he bowed respectfully to Cao Xing.
It seemed to be thanking him for cultivating the Pale Holy Tree.
Cao Xing didn't say anything, then took out an [Elite Soul of the Human-Faced Tree Guardian] from his backpack.
Directly to Juliette.
The quiet and elegant woman in front of him looked at the soul in her hand with some confusion.
"My Lord...what is this?"
