Chapter 240 Magic Beans, Girl Doll (5000)

Seeing this scene, everyone looked surprised.

Elisa exclaimed in surprise: "Wow! Two magic beans popped out of the big bad wolf's stomach!"

"It's just like the story the old woman told me!"

A smile appeared on Cao Xing's lips.

Yes, he just remembered the story the old witch told him.

The hunter cut open the big bad wolf's stomach, but instead of the grandfather and grandson jumping out, two magic beans jumped out.

And this piece of [soil containing magic power] requires Cao Xing to plant strange seeds.

Then it is obvious that the seed is hidden in the big bad wolf's stomach.

With a look of joy, Cao Xing walked forward and put it away.

[Obtain: Strange Red Magic Bean (Orange)*1]

[Obtain: Strange Blue Magic Bean (Orange)*1]

...

"Wow, it's actually an orange-grade item? Two of them!"

“Are there any different effects between these two things?”

A thoughtful look appeared in Cao Xing's eyes, and then he quickly checked the attributes.

[Strange Blue Magic Beans (Orange): Magic Plant]

[Quality: Epic]

[Effect: If you plant it in soil that contains magical power, it will quickly grow into a giant vine, break the barrier, and go to the second floor of the castle.]

(Note: A magical bean, but can only be used once.)
...

Obviously, this blue magic bean is the prop to be thrown into the [Magic Soil].

Can help them enter the second floor of the castle.

Cao Xing continued to look at the properties of the second magic bean.

[Strange Red Magic Beans (Orange): Magic Plant]

[Quality: Epic]

[Effect: Plant it in the territory and water it regularly with cold spirit water to grow a vine with great strength. The vine will obey commands, move underground, cut a whole piece of land, or move it.]

(Note: A vine with great strength that can help you quickly change the layout of your territory.)
...

"Oh? This thing can actually be used to move buildings within the territory?"

Cao Xing immediately understood its function.

This is a vine that is of great help in territory construction!

Now, Cao Xing's territory is only one kilometer in diameter, and many of the buildings inside are basically built in a disorderly manner.

Apart from the residential area and the working area, there is no specific division.

And in the near future, the territory will surely continue to expand.

Cao Xing even wanted to build it into a huge city!
And every time the territory expands, the layout of the territory has to be changed.

For example, the city walls need to be demolished and rebuilt, and the arrow towers need to be rebuilt in a new location so that they can play their greatest role.

Even if the lord demolishes these buildings himself, the system will return the resources used to build them.

But this back and forth wastes a lot of time!
With this vine, Cao Xing can move however he wants.

For him, the effect of this magic bean is even comparable to legendary equipment!

"Okay, okay, I really found a treasure this time!"

"With this thing, I can expand my territory however I want in the future, hahahaha!"

Cao Xing was very excited, and then he carefully put the [Strange Red Magic Bean (Orange)] into his backpack.

He led everyone and walked straight to the edge of the [magic soil].

Holding another blue magic bean in his hand, he thought: "Does this thing only need to be buried?"

Everyone was also confused.

Even Juliet probably doesn't know how to use this strange magic bean.

Cao Xing didn't think much about it.

He took out a standard long sword from his backpack, then walked to the middle of the soil and dug hard a few times.

When a pit of about 20 centimeters appeared in the middle, he directly buried the [Strange Blue Magic Beans] in it.

Then he covered it with soil next to it.

After waiting for a few minutes, the soil still did not react.

"Hmm? Isn't that how it's used?"

A puzzled look appeared on Cao Xing's face.

At this moment, everyone suddenly felt that the entire castle began to shake.

"Boom! Boom!"

Cao Xing suddenly felt that the soil under his feet began to move, as if something was about to break out of the ground.

Then, a tender green bud sprouted out, and then a giant green vine quickly rushed out!

Moreover, this giant vine is beginning to grow rapidly at an extremely terrifying speed!
In a spiral posture, it began to rush rapidly into the air.

"Boom!"

It grows extremely fast.

In the blink of an eye, it reached a height of fifty or sixty meters and reached the ceiling of the first floor of the castle.

Then, there was a crisp sound, as if some barrier was broken.

It pierced right through the thick ceiling.

Then it finally stopped growing.

Obviously, this giant vine is the passage to the second floor of the tower.

They have to climb up this giant vine.

Cao Xing looked at the size of the giant vine.

It is about forty to fifty centimeters in diameter, almost as big as the trunk of a big tree!
"Wow, it can actually grow such a thick vine, it can easily support two people standing on it!"

Moreover, given the thickness of this giant vine, even Dabai can barely stand on it.

Just need to be careful.

So Cao Xing said, "Let's go up this giant vine."

"Assam, you're first."

"Dabai, be careful when you go up there."

The mammoth understood what Cao Xing said and nodded its huge head.

At this moment, Assam, who had already mounted the Frostwolf again, kicked his feet.

The Frostwolf then carried him and leaped onto the giant vine.

The thick and powerful wolf claws grabbed the surface of the giant vine and slowly moved upwards.

Seeing this scene, others followed suit.

Rab and Blot walked behind Assam.

After that, it’s Baymax and Volibear.

At this moment, the huge monster Dabai also carefully raised his elephant hoof and stepped onto the giant vine.

Its size is really too big, even the giant vine is only fifty or sixty centimeters in diameter.

It was just enough for Dabai to step on it with one foot.

Therefore, Dabai's current movements are somewhat like an elephant crossing a single-plank bridge.

Its cautious movements make it look clumsy and cute.

This made Liu Muxue and Elisa in the back couldn't help but cover their faces and laugh.

As if he heard laughter behind him, Dabai looked a little embarrassed.

It shook its tail a few times and then steadied itself.

As a fourth-order leader-level creature, it has a very strong ability to balance itself.

"Moo-"

As Dabai found the feeling, he walked up the giant vine steadily.

Seeing this scene, Cao Xing also breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he also stepped onto the giant vine.

Soon, everyone arrived at the second floor area.

The giant vine stopped growing when it reached the second floor.

Seeing this scene, Cao Xing seemed to understand something.

"It seems that this giant vine can only take us to the second floor."

"We need to defeat the monsters here before we can go to the third floor."

"According to the order of the story that the old witch told me, the monster on the second floor should be the ogre."

Thinking of this, Cao Xing looked forward and began to observe the environment on the second floor.

The atmosphere on the second floor of the tower was very dark. There was no light and one could only vaguely see a wall in front.

This seems to be a corridor with strange small rooms on both sides.

"Let's go through and take a look."

After hearing this, Assam raised his weapon and led the way ahead.

“Tap…tap…”

The sound of footsteps kept sounding.

As they moved forward, they entered and explored the small rooms.

However, there doesn't seem to be anything good inside, just some miscellaneous items.

Rotten tables, chairs, benches, some moldy wood, etc.

Cao Xing searched for a while and walked out with little interest.

After leading everyone forward for about one or two hundred meters, Cao Xing pushed open a different room.

The moment the door was opened, a strong smell of blood and stench hit me in the face!

It looks like a slaughterhouse in here.

There was a wooden bed in the middle, with blackened bloodstains still on it.

It seems that many unlucky people have slept on it.

Above everyone's heads, there were hanging various animal organs and human tissues...

"My goodness, are we entering a crime scene?"

Cao Xing was a little surprised.

Others also felt uncomfortable with the scene before them...

Elisa covered Tong Chuchu's eyes and told her not to look.

The scene in front of me was very bloody. The human tissues and animal organs hanging above my head were still dripping with blood, and it looked like they had just been cut off.

Cao Xing didn't think much about it, but searched the slaughterhouse. In the corner, Cao Xing saw a portrait.

It was a family portrait.

A man with a longbow, his wife and daughter.

The background also seems to be a dark forest.

Cao Xing picked up the portrait and found an iron box behind it.

[Ogre's Iron Box: Open it? ]

"Oh? This thing can also be turned on?"

"What's in it?"

With a curious mentality.

Cao Xing directly clicked 'Open'.

[Open successfully. 】

[Obtain: Gold Ancient Coins*11]

[Obtain: Silver Ring*2]

[Obtain: Girl's doll*1]

[Obtained: Letter to wife and daughter*1]

...

"I actually got 11 ancient gold coins at once, haha!"

Cao Xing was delighted. Now the number of [Golden Ancient Coins] in his backpack officially exceeded 30, and he was getting closer and closer to exchanging them for a high-level ancient treasure chest!
He glanced at the other two props.

[Girl's Doll: Mission Item]

[Effect of prop: This is an ordinary doll. Return it to its owner and you will get some different rewards.]

(Hint: Maybe you can go to 'Anno River Village' to look for clues.)
...

Cao Xing looked at the little rabbit-like puppet in his hand, which had turned black and yellow due to its age.

"Quest props? The system prompts indicate the quest location."

"If you have time, you can go to this Anno River Village and take a look."

Cao Xing put it into his backpack and took out the last prop: [A letter to his wife and daughter].

【Letter: click to read】

...

After reading the contents of the letter, Cao Xing seemed to understand something.

Unfortunately, part of the record in this letter is incomplete.

In addition to these, the letter also contains long passages expressing his longing for his wife and daughter, and urging them to live a good life.

After reading all this, Cao Xing said, "Let's go, there's nothing in here."

Everyone walked out of this slaughterhouse full of sin.

Continue along the dim passage.

There seemed to be a ray of light finally appearing ahead.

At the end of the passage, a wooden door appeared.

'Crunch! '

As the wooden door was pushed open.

Then they saw a dim room.

This room looks like a restaurant, with several blackened tables and benches inside, and the space is quite spacious.

And in the corner, there was a figure sitting alone.

He looked rather odd, with a hooked nose, a pointed chin, and weed-like hair draped over his shoulders.

He was wearing a white fur coat.

At this moment, everyone was on guard.

Because this was the first creature they found on the second floor of the castle.

However, Cao Xing discovered that this person was exactly the same as the man he saw in the portrait.

At this moment, this figure was sitting at a small wooden table, eating the food on the plate elegantly with the knife and fork in his hand.

However, when everyone saw the food on his plate, they couldn't help but vomit.

On his left hand side, there was a glass of yellow and green liquid, and on his right hand side, in a glass jar,

Obviously, the other party's identity is about to be revealed!

The other party also noticed Cao Xing and the others.

He raised his head, revealing a calm middle-aged face.

"You are here, intruders of the castle..."

"Would you like to have dinner with me?"

He didn't seem surprised by the appearance of Cao Xing and others, but treated them as guests.
Cao Xing shook his head.

"No need, just eat it yourself."

After hearing this, the other party did not attack them or take any other action.

Instead, he nodded silently and continued to hold a small knife and cut the food on his plate.

Taking this opportunity, Cao Xing also quickly glanced at his attributes.

[Ogre of unknown origin]

[Race: Human Race]

[Level: Level 45 (Level Mutated Leader-level Creature)]

[Health Volume: 538251/538251]

[Talent: Hunter Instinct (Dodge probability increased by 15%)]

(A hunter of unknown origin, who seemed to have appeared in the castle a long time ago.)
...

After seeing this guy's attributes, Cao Xing's pupils shrank again!

"A fifth-order mutant leader creature!"

"A full 53 HP. This is much scarier than the big bad wolf below!"

Cao Xing felt a sense of pressure instantly.

But the good news is that this time, they don’t need to let Assam fight alone!

With the strength of Cao Xing's side, he is not afraid of him!

At this moment, the middle-aged man picked up the piece of meat in his hand and put it in his mouth to taste it carefully.

Then he wiped his lips gracefully and said slowly: "Intruders, what are you doing in this tower?"

Cao Xing pointed directly above his head and said, "We are going to the higher floors of the castle to meet the legendary witch."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man slowly said: "Why do you want to see the witch?"

"I don't do anything, I just want to see her."

Cao Xing couldn't just tell him that he was going to go up and kill the witch.

The other party seemed to be thinking, then he slowly shook his head and said: "Go back, the witch doesn't want to see anyone."

But Cao Xing said, "That won't do. We have traveled hundreds of miles. We can't just go back empty-handed without even meeting him, right?"

Hearing this, the other party stopped eating.

He glanced at Cao Xing and said, "It seems that I didn't say it directly enough. You didn't understand it, did you?"

"If you stay any longer, I will treat you like food!"

At this moment, a terrifying aura emanated from him!

This breath contains a strong murderous intent!
If an ordinary third or fourth level strongman faced this aura, he would probably be frightened and retreat on the spot.

However, Cao Xing and others stood where they were, unmoved.

And stared at the ogre calmly.

The other party seemed to have noticed the strength of Cao Xing and others, and knew that they could not be easily sent away.

"Interesting, it looks like we'll have to have a few more foods for dinner tonight."

The ogre slowly picked up the dagger in his hand.

However, Cao Xing had already prepared for the battle.

He gave the order directly: "Bron, Assam, Rab, go!"

"Everyone else, attack with all your might!"

At this moment, Cao Xing raised his staff and the [Ice-breaking Flying Blade] shot out.

Including other people, all kinds of long-range attacks were also falling down crazily.

Holy Light Ball, Blood Poison Spray, Wind Chaser Arrow, Nightmare Arrow, Ice Arrow...

Looking at the various arrows and magic attacks flying towards him.

The ogre showed no sign of panic.

A terrifying aura burst out from him again!

The next moment, the dining table in front of him was shattered into pieces in an instant!

"boom!"

He swung the dagger in his hand quickly.

“Ding! Ding ding ding!”

After a series of crisp chopping sounds.

Four or five arrows were cut off by him directly.

He dodged Isabel's Holy Light Ball and Hilda's Blood Poison!
65% dodge probability, really powerful!

"What a quick reaction! What a high dodge!"

"As expected of an expert-level short sword mastery!"

However, although this guy blocked a lot of attacks.

But Cao Xing's [Ice-breaking Flying Blade] still hit him.
