Chapter 259
Of course, for such high-intensity battles, he needed to rest for a while.
Moreover, Cao Xing didn’t have any more [Ice Dragon Horns] on hand.
Cao Xing nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Liu Muxue beside him.
At this moment, she had been through several hours of battle, having killed countless Ice Nest Monsters, exuding a heroic aura.
Combined with her stunning features and knightly attire,
she indeed had a gallant charm about her.
Cao Xing said, “Let’s go, Muxue, time to go back and sleep.”
Hearing Cao Xing’s voice, Liu Muxue also withdrew from her battle status.
“Okay.”
Then, the two of them returned to the Lord’s Hut together.
In the familiar room, waves of warmth drifted over.
The Polar Person, Du An, had already installed a magic-powered water purifier in every room.
Cao Xing and Liu Muxue enjoyed a delightfully hot bath.
Then, the two of them fell asleep in each other’s arms.
Nothing happened in the second half of the night.
Because the high-intensity battles of the first half had left everyone completely exhausted.
Even with a beauty in his arms, he felt utterly powerless.
…
…
The next day…
Cao Xing cuddled the soft and fragrant Liu Muxue, sleeping all the way until past eight the next morning!
A system prompt appeared.
[Survivors, please note, you have passed the second day of the official period, the level of the Ice Nest Monsters has slightly increased.]
[Weather forecast: In the evening, the Gale Snow Plain will experience moderate snow, please cooperate to plan your travel time.]
…
The two of them opened their eyes simultaneously, smiles on their faces.
After a night’s rest, they had swept away the fatigue from last night and were now full of spirit.
After a simple wash.
Cao Xing took Liu Muxue out of the Lord’s Hut.
At this moment, most of the subjects had already started working.
Some were paving brick floors, others were repairing the city walls attacked by the Ice Nest Monsters yesterday.
As for the subject Cao Yi, he had already begun leading people to repair the iron rails outside the territory.
Cao Xing nodded in satisfaction, “Not bad, not bad, over these days, the subjects have already adapted to the pace of the territory’s development.”
“Now they know what to do each day without me having to instruct them.”
At this moment, Liu Muxue softly spoke, “Axing, are we staying in the territory today?”
Cao Xing shook his head, “Today we need to head out, we’re going to the Witch Forest to find the Ice Phoenix Flower.”
“Ice Phoenix Flower?”
Cao Xing smiled lightly, “Yes, it’s a type of magic plant, quite important to me.”
Liu Muxue lightly nodded her head.
Just as Cao Xing was about to call all the combat personnel to gather.
The Dwarf Harold approached proactively.
He looked at Cao Xing and said respectfully, “Lord, please start assigning work for me.”
“My wife and I can see that this is a strong and fair territory, and we want to contribute our strength to its development!”
Cao Xing glanced at Harold’s loyalty, which had surprisingly reached 76.
It seemed last night’s battle had boosted Harold’s loyalty.
“Mr. Harold, thank you for your help, I believe with your contribution, our territory will surely prosper even more!”
Harold immediately straightened his posture.
Then, Cao Xing led the Dwarf Blacksmith to the Blacksmith Shop.
The Blacksmith Shop had now risen to level 3 and could even mass-produce Fine Iron Equipment, that is, Blue Quality equipment.
However, he didn’t have blue equipment blueprints, so he could only first forge green equipment for the soldiers to replace.
Yet, even though it was just green equipment, it was much better than the blank white equipment the soldiers wore.
Then, Cao Xing brought out a large amount of wolf bone, wild boar skeletons, and wolf teeth.
Crash!
So many bones, piled directly on the ground into a small hill.
“Mr. Harold, use these materials to craft new armor for our soldiers.”
“As for these fangs, see if you can sharpen them to make arrows or something; our territory’s arrow reserves are too low.”
Hearing this, Harold immediately patted his chest and promised, “No problem, Lord, these pieces of equipment are a piece of cake for me, I can have them all done before dark.”
“Oh right, Lord, just call me Harold.”
Cao Xing listened with a happy expression appearing on his face, such efficiency was indeed high, worthy of Intermediate Forging Mastery!
Then, Cao Xing brought out the hundreds of large front teeth from the Ice and Snow Bomb Rabbits he had obtained last time.
“Harold, see what can be made with these.”
Harold picked up the polished and shiny large teeth, pondered for a moment, and said, “These rabbit teeth are quite hard, the usual method is to sharpen them into spearheads, but…”
“But my suggestion is to piece them together to make a set of armor.”
Cao Xing was stunned, “Oh? This can also be made into armor?”
After all, the system description of this material only mentioned making spearheads or selling them to merchants.
Harold nodded, “Yes, using the technique for making scale armor, then improving it a bit, the defensive power should be decent.”
Cao Xing realized and nodded.
Indeed, he had been a bit prejudiced, assuming what the system said was absolute.
Since the update, this world appeared more realistic.
Many things could break out of the system’s framework, using imagination to discover more functions.
Cao Xing was quite enlightened by Harold.
Then, he also took out the [Sharp Hook Claw (Green)] and [Keen Hook Claw (Blue)] he had obtained from the Soul-Devouring Monster.
Then he asked, “Harold, what can these two things be made into?”
