Chapter 199
Desecrating the Goddess, Demon Sephinya (6200) This Guardian Greatsword was a two-handed weapon, exclusive to warriors.
Among Cao Xing’s recruited creatures, no one could equip it.
After pondering for a moment, Cao Xing directly tossed the greatsword to Ji Xinyue.
Ji Xinyue caught it, looking bewildered…
When she saw the attributes of the greatsword, her mouth opened slightly in astonishment and she exclaimed, “This, this… this is a purple weapon!”
“Oh my god!!!”
For a moment, Ji Xinyue stood there, somewhat dazed.
“Cao Xing, this is…”
Cao Xing laughed, “It’s for you. None of us can use it anyway, so since you’re a warrior.”
But Ji Xinyue shook her head and said, “I… I don’t mean that, what I mean is, this weapon is too valuable, I can’t take it…”
No matter how slow she was, she knew the rarity of a purple equipment at this stage!
In the trading channel, even a blue equipment could cause a sensation among the survivors.
And purple equipment was even more rare beyond compare.
Yet, Cao Xing gave such a precious weapon to her, making Ji Xinyue feel as if the greatsword in her hands was a bit hot to the touch.
Cao Xing smiled.
Although purple equipment was precious,
since this girl had taken him on this mission, even if it was for her own benefit, he couldn’t possibly leave her without any reward.
At this moment, Ji Xinyue stood holding the greatsword, a bit at a loss.
Beside her, Liu Muxue gently grasped Ji Xinyue’s hand and said with a smile, “Sister Xinyue, just take it.”
“Don’t worry so much. Axing is formidable, and purple equipment isn’t all that rare to him.”
Hearing Liu Muxue’s words, Ji Xinyue slowly exhaled and then gratefully said, “Thank you, Cao Xing, thank you, Sister Muxue.”
Cao Xing nodded.
Meanwhile,
more good news arrived.
A powerful aura erupted from Renice!
It seemed as if a fierce aura appeared in her eyes, making her gaze sharper!
She appeared like an arrow off the string, full of aggression!
A system prompt appeared.
[Your territory member, Renice Hawkeye, has successfully advanced to a boss-level creature. All attributes increased by 30%, and she has learned a new skill: Storm Arrow Rain.]
[Storm Arrow Rain: Releases a multitude of arrows, dealing 6*88% damage to all enemies in the target area. Each hit inflicts one layer of bleeding effect, with a 15% chance to cause a 5-second disabled effect. Cooling time: 3 minutes.]
…
Seeing the system prompt, Cao Xing’s eyes filled with strong joy.
“Such a powerful group attack skill!”
Six volleys of arrow rain damage, accompanied by bleeding and disable effects, this was much stronger than his Ice Arrow Rain.
“Congratulations, Renice,” Cao Xing praised.
Renice looked at Cao Xing, and the piercing aura on her disappeared instantly, becoming extremely gentle.
A shy smile appeared on her serious face, and she slightly bowed, “Thank you, my Lord. From now on, your commands are the direction of my arrows, and Renice will always be by your side.”
Cao Xing nodded.
Then he continued to command, “Let’s move out, the last temple, the Giant Hammer Temple!”
Assam and the others obeyed, quickly emerging from the temple, and after choosing a passage, they proceeded onward.
They bulldozed their way through waves of soul-devouring monsters they encountered along the route!
After their strength surged, these third-tier soul-devouring monsters posed little threat to them unless they appeared in overwhelming numbers simultaneously.
However, perhaps due to the commotion during their battles, other regions’ soul-devouring monsters were alerted.
Along the way, they encountered six waves of soul-devouring monster attacks.
Although they didn’t sustain much damage, it delayed Cao Xing by over ten minutes.
Fortunately, when they reached the Giant Hammer Temple, the gates had not yet been breached.
Cao Xing resumed commanding the battle.
“Assam, use the Sword of Justice to sweep that charging soul-devouring monster back!”
“Andrew, aim the Starfire Technique at the soul-devouring monster next to Sarah and lure it over.”
“Hilda, quickly spray webs to relieve Blom’s pressure!”
He issued one command after another, and all the recruited creatures carried them out faithfully.
Moreover, with his well-organized command, the number of soul-devouring monsters steadily decreased.
Even the proud Hilda couldn’t help but glance sideways at Cao Xing.
Twenty minutes later, the battle ended.
The abundant experience raised Cao Xing’s level to 13, and Liu Muxue’s to 12.
Even Assam reached level 15.
Cao Xing nodded in satisfaction, “Leveling up so quickly!”
At this stage, most survivors were still hovering around level 4 to 6, but Cao Xing was already rocketing toward level 20!
One could imagine how vast the gap was between them and others.
However, the speed of leveling up would slow down afterward.
Now at level 13, he needed 30,000 experience points to reach level 14.
Meanwhile, everyone looked at Cao Xing with admiration.
Several system prompts appeared.
[Due to your exceptional command, you demonstrated outstanding combat capabilities!]
[Blom’s loyalty to you has increased, current loyalty: 89]
[Hilda’s loyalty to you has increased, current loyalty: 71]
…
Cao Xing felt a surge of joy inside, surprised that even the most difficult Hilda’s loyalty increased.
It seemed his personal charisma was quite effective.
He looked at the captivating Queen Blood Spider.
However, Hilda just snorted, turning her head away again.
Blom patted his smooth head and then laughed, “My Lord, your command was truly timely. Blom thought a few times he would be knocked away by the soul-devouring monster, but you saved me each time.”
