Chapter 71 Commissioned Mission, Pale Seed!
"Dabai, shut it up."

After hearing this, Dabai, who was standing by, rushed over.

Boom!Boom!
Heavy footsteps sounded, like a war machine approaching.

When the Ice Nest Hoof saw Big White rushing towards him, it showed no weakness and simply lowered its head, ready to compete in strength with Big White!

Boom!dong dong!

The two huge monsters came into contact with each other.

However, the moment its horns collided with the big white fangs.

The rhino monster was directly hit and flew out.

And at this moment, Dabai continued to rush forward.

One fang picked out, then trampled.

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

Click!

Dabai's strong front hooves crushed the rhino monster's head, killing it to the point of being dead.

A system prompt appeared in front of Cao Xing.

[Your pet: Dabai killed Icebrood Hoof lv10, and gained experience points: 180]

[Combatants gain experience points: 90]

At this time, Dabai was still standing on the corpse of the rhinoceros monster, looking at Cao Xing with hope.

Cao Xing patted its elephant hoof and praised, "Well done, Dabai."

Dabai shook his head, seeming happy to receive praise from his owner.

At the same time, the subjects looked at the scene in bewilderment.

They thought they would have a fierce battle.

The outcome was decided in just a moment.

"What a powerful mammoth..."

They were once again impressed by the powerful strength of Cao Xing's territory.

Cao Xing found 4 [Ice Dragon Marks] and 3 [Glacier Flakes] under the body of the Ice Nest Hoof.

The harvest was pretty good.

Unfortunately, monsters hatched from the ice nest will not drop equipment.

Then, Cao Xing continued to order: "Sarah, destroy this ice nest."

Sarah nodded, and the shadow blade swept across.

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

[Your territory member: Sarah Blade Dance successfully destroyed the Ice Nest and gained 100 experience points]

[Combatants gain experience points: 50 points]

[Obtain Ice Dragon Mark*20]

"Huh? They actually gave me 20 Ice Dragon Marks directly?"

Cao Xing's eyes lit up.

Destroying an ice nest is comparable to killing dozens of monsters, which is pretty good.

He nodded in satisfaction, then said, "Let's go home."

Cao Xing led the team and rushed back to the territory in a mighty manner.

As soon as I returned to the territory.

All the subjects knelt down respectfully.

The chieftain Cao Yi took the lead and shouted, "Welcome to the triumphant return of the Lord!"

"The Lord is mighty and majestic!"

Other citizens also shouted: "Lord, your majesty is so great!"

They all raised their heads and looked at this group of powerful warriors excitedly with fiery eyes.

Cao Xing was stunned, shook his head, and said nothing more.

However, he had a higher opinion of this leader Cao Yi.

This guy is really smart.

He is an expert at pyramid schemes.

Cao Xing nodded slightly, "Get up, my people."

After receiving the order, the people stood up one after another.

But their eyes looking at the soldiers were still full of passion.

Including the tree spirit clan nearby, they also developed a great sense of belonging to this territory.

Surrounded by the crowd, Neve seemed extremely inconspicuous.

She kept raising her head, then lowering it again and again, her small hands nervously pinching the corner of her clothes, as if she was making some difficult decision.

Cao Xing noticed this ice princess-like girl and saw that she seemed to be worried about something.

So he said, "Neve, do you have anything you need to report to me?"

When Cao Xing called her name, little Niv's body trembled.

Everyone turned their eyes to her.

As the crowd watched, Neve seemed to gather her courage.

With a nervous expression, she walked slowly to Cao Xing and knelt down respectfully.

"My Lord, Neve needs your help with something!"

Behind her, the mature-looking tree spirit seemed to want to say something, but ultimately did not open his mouth.

The other subjects also turned their eyes over.

Cao Xing knew that now was his time to show his talent.

"Neve, you are my subject. If you have any questions, you can tell me."

"Now tell me what difficulties you are facing."

Kneeling on the ground, Neve took a deep breath and said solemnly: "My Lord, my sister, Juliette and I got separated on the road."

"Neve asks you to help find her."

"If you can bring my sister back, Niv is willing to give you everything she has, including the pale seed in her body."

Hearing the words "Pale Seed", the eyes of the tree spirits suddenly widened.

They looked at Neve in shock, as if they had not expected her to actually say this.

Among them, the mature-looking tree spirit even subconsciously wanted to come over and stop Neve.

However, when she thought that this was their lord, the female tree spirit finally sighed.

But Cao Xing asked doubtfully: "What is the Pale Seed?"

At this time, Andrew on the side also showed shock in his eyes.

Andrew explained: "My Lord, the Pale Sacred Tree is the most sacred giant tree in the Northern Continent."

"It is said that it is as high as the sky, has infinite power, and can even predict the future."

"Every once in a while, the guardians can ask the sacred tree a question. No matter what the question is, the sacred tree will give an answer."

"In addition to the only pale holy tree, there are seeds sown by some holy trees. When these seeds grow up, they will become new pale trees."

“Although it is not as magical as the Pale Sacred Tree, it still possesses the same extraordinary power.”

"It is said that the territory where the pale tree is planted will receive a magical blessing."

After listening to Andrew's explanation, Cao Xing's pupils suddenly widened, and he also understood the importance of the 'Pale Seed' that Niv mentioned.

"You mean, there is a pale seed in your body?"

Neve nodded slightly, with an expectant look on her delicate face that looked like it was carved out of stone.

Cao Xing nodded suddenly.

There is no doubt that the Pale Sacred Tree is sacred and powerful. The ability to predict the future alone is extremely abnormal no matter where it is placed.

But unfortunately, such a sacred pale holy tree was also destroyed in the disaster of the dragon's revival.

Even if the seeds of this sacred tree cannot predict the future, they must have extremely magical powers.

Didn’t you hear Andrew say that the territory where the pale tree is planted will be blessed?

Seeing Cao Xing thinking, Niv said with a trembling voice: "Lord, please."

"As long as you can bring my sister back, I'm willing to agree to anything you ask!"

Niv looked at him eagerly. Cao Xing did not agree rashly, but wanted to collect some information first.

So he asked, "Neve, do you remember where you and your sister got separated?"

Neve quickly replied, "It was in the Borelis Mountains. Uncle Hilton and I camped in a forest and were attacked by a troll on the top of the mountain. The whole camp was in chaos."

"In the melee, a troll set its sights on our tent."

"In order to protect me, my sister took the initiative to lead the giant demon away..."

"By the time the guards fought off the trolls, my sister had disappeared."

"Later, we searched for a long time but couldn't find any trace of my sister. Uncle Hilton said that my sister had died. Woo woo woo ..."

"My Lord, I can sense that my sister is not dead yet. She is still alive."

"She must have been very helpless, alone in that cold mountain range."

"Please, save my sister!"

After Neve finished speaking, she buried her head in the ground.

A system prompt appears.

[Your territory member: Niv asks you for help to go to the Borelis Mountains to find her lost sister. ]

[Quest Reward: Pale Seed*1]

【Whether to accept? 】

Cao Xing fell into deep thought again.

Mainly, he didn't know how far away the Borelis Mountains were from him and how dangerous it was there.

So he opened the [Snowstorm Map] and found the location [Borealis Mountains] on it.

At a glance, this mountain range is very large, consisting of more than a dozen high mountains and stretching for dozens of kilometers.

It is more than 30 kilometers away from the camp.

At this time, Dahua, a citizen nearby, said cautiously: "My Lord, the Borelis Mountains are a relatively dangerous mountain range nearby, and many caravans pass through there."

"There are many powerful monsters living there, and even those experienced caravans may encounter accidents."

After hearing Dahua's explanation, everyone understood the danger of the mountain range.
Obviously, rescuing Neve's sister at this time would involve greater risks.

Everyone is waiting for Cao Xing's decision.

And when he noticed the coordinates of the Borelis Mountains, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Huh? These coordinates seem to be similar to the coordinates on the Goblin Treasure House Key I obtained?

Cao Xing was stunned, and he quickly took a look at the key introduction in his backpack.

[With this key, you can go to coordinates 32141, 23513, 3521 to open the Goblin Treasure House. ]

"I'll go...it's true!"

Does this mean that Cao Xing can go look for Juliet first, and then complete the key mission at the same time?

Thinking of this, he immediately made a decision.

That is, take on this task.

One action, two gains, why not do it?

Even if there is a risk, he will accept it!
Cao Xing bent down and held Niv's arm.

This was his first time to have physical contact with the tree spirits. The touch was not cold as he had imagined, but rather warm.

Niv was frightened by Cao Xing's behavior. She stopped crying immediately and a hint of shame flashed in her eyes.

However, Cao Xing just helped her up and said softly: "Neve, since you have joined my territory, you are one of us."

"Your family is naturally our family as well."

"As your lord, it is my duty to protect my family!"

"Don't worry. No matter how dangerous the Borelis Mountains are, I will find your sister."

Hearing this, mist appeared in Neve's blue pupils again.

She was completely moved by Cao Xing's words.

"Thank you... Thank you, respected lord."

[You have successfully accepted the mission: Niv's commission]

[Citizens: Niv’s favorability has increased, current favorability: 87]

At the same time, other subjects also heard Cao Xing's speech.

It seemed as if a warm current flowed through everyone's heart.

They didn't expect that Cao Xing was willing to take the risk and go to such a dangerous mountain range to find her family just because of a new citizen.

Cao Yi, the chieftain, took the lead and said, "Praise the merciful Lord!"

Other citizens also expressed their feelings.

"Praise the merciful Lord!"

Then, a bunch of system prompts for increasing loyalty appeared.

The loyalty of all subjects has reached over 85 points!
It can be said to be a huge improvement.

A barely perceptible hint of joy appeared on Cao Xing's lips.

Liu Muxue also came to Cao Xing and looked at her with admiration.

"Axing, are we going to rescue Niv's sister now?"

Cao Xing said: "Well, but besides rescuing her sister, I have another thing to do when I go there."

"Although the Borelis Mountains are dangerous, our strength is not weak either."

"If Hilton and the others can pass safely, we should be able to do so too."

Liu Muxue nodded and said excitedly: "Yeah, let's go together."

Assam and Andrew were ready for battle, and including Sarah beside them, they all looked at Cao Xing with respect.

After all, who doesn't want their lord to be a good lord who cares about his subordinates?

However, before setting off, Cao Xing also had to check the things that exploded from the Frost Goblin to see if they could be used to improve his strength.

[Dim Elite Soul: A soul with a weak spiritual power]

(Can be used on a follower below level 5 to evolve it into an elite creature with a small chance of success of 15%~%)

This thing is the same type of thing as the Demon Spider Essence, which can allow ordinary creatures to advance into elites.

However, the chance of success was so low that it was outrageous, so he didn't have any hope at all.

Cao Xing checked the second prop.

[Ascalon Archer Recruitment Scroll (Blue)]

(This scroll can summon an Ascalon archer with rich combat experience, with the strength of level 12 elite.)
Cao Xing was stunned for a moment, then said happily: "Another elite creature, and an archer?"

"Great, this way I can have ranged attack units!"

So he just clicked on it.

A system prompt appears.

[Do you want to consume the scroll and summon Ascalon Archer? ]

"Yes."

at the same time.

Cao Xing suddenly felt a cold wind blowing through the territory.

"call--"

The cold wind carried the snowflakes from outside the territory as they drifted past.

Everyone's vision was blocked, and they also felt their body temperature drop rapidly.

Snowflakes are flying in the territory like petals all over the sky.

After a while, when the cold wind dissipated, everything settled down.

In front of Cao Xing, there appeared a slender female archer wearing azure light armor and carrying a longbow on her back.

There was a determined look on the Westerner's cold white face.

The high ponytail adds a dashing and heroic look to her.

"A kingdom sunk into the ground, a glory lost..."

"Ascalon archer, Rhaenys Hawkeye, reporting to you."
