Chapter 388 Royal Bloodline, Shadow of the Blood Legion (6200)
"Marita? She actually found my territory?"
The last time they were separated, Cao Xing gave her a communication device and asked her to contact him in the windy snowfield.
Unexpectedly, she came over quietly.
Although he was a little surprised, Cao Xing was also relatively happy.
After all, this woman can be said to be his noble person.
For the first time, he gave himself the [Demon-Swallowing Box], allowing him to successfully devour demons and gain the powerful ability to transform into demons.
The second time she gave herself magic seeds, Moon Crown Orb fragments, and...her body...
It can be said that I have received a lot of help from her along the way.
So Cao Xing clicked 'Agree' directly.
In an area about two kilometers away from the territory, this is also the border of the furnace's coverage.
An ordinary-looking carriage drove over.
Cao Xing also quickly walked out of the territory and went to greet him.
From a distance, you can see that there is only one driver on the carriage, not even a guard.
"So low-key?"
However, considering this woman's strength, it's not surprising.
After all, this is a master mage, and with her own strength, she is already the strongest protector.
at the same time.
Marita's carriage slowly arrived under the city wall.
I saw Cao Xing leading a large number of soldiers standing in the snow in front to greet him.
The curtain of the carriage was finally lifted.
A mature and beautiful face emerges from it.
It was Marita.
Her waterfall-like long brown hair was slightly curled and draped casually on her shoulders, with a few strands of hair fluttering gently in the breeze.
Under the curved willow eyebrows, there is a pair of eyes as deep as sapphires.
She seemed different today from the last time I saw her.
After being carefully dressed up, she looks even brighter and more attractive.
The carriage slowly stopped in front of Cao Xing.
Then Marita opened the car curtain.
Vaguely, Cao Xing seemed to see two figures inside the carriage.
But before he could see clearly, the curtain was closed again.
With an elegant and moving figure, she walked away.
Today, Marita is wearing a gorgeous black dress.
The corners of the skirt swing slightly, and the neckline of the dress is heart-shaped, which just right reveals her fair skin and proud size.
She held up her fluffy skirt and carefully stepped out of the carriage, moving lightly.
After seeing Cao Xing, a complicated look suddenly appeared on his face.
There is joy, emotion, and a hint of shyness that is not easy to detect.
"Lord Cao Xing, long time no see."
Cao Xing also said with a smile on his face: "Long time no see, Ms. Marita."
"I'm surprised you found my territory."
Including the other soldiers, they all looked at Marita with curious expressions.
It seems that she doesn't know that her lord knows such a noble lady with outstanding temperament and extremely powerful aura.
Marita said softly: "I also spent a lot of trouble."
"However, after asking several lords from other worlds, they told me the location of your territory."
Cao Xing chuckled and nodded.
The noble lady in front of her looked at the buildings in the territory across the city wall, with admiration in her eyes.
She chuckled and said: "Lord Cao Xing, won't you lead me in to sit down?"
Cao Xing was stunned and immediately reacted.
"I was negligent."
"Ms. Marita, please come in quickly."
As soon as the words fell, the city gate opened wide.
Marita chuckled, got back on the carriage, and slowly drove into the territory.
At the same time, Cao Xing looked at the soldiers around him, and then focused on Hilda.
"Hilda, I have something to deal with here, so you can take our soldiers and meet my wife."
"Sarah, stay."
After hearing this, the Blood Spider Queen nodded slightly, "Okay."
After saying this, she left here with a group of swordsmen from the Kingdom of Stars.
Sarah stayed with Cao Xing to ensure his safety.
Seeing the disappearing figures of Hilda and others, Cao Xing turned around and followed the carriage back to the territory.
It was not until they reached the second ring area of the territory that the carriage slowly stopped.
Because, here we have reached the entrance of the tavern in the territory.
When Cao Xing entertains non-territory people, he basically arranges them here.
"Ms. Marita, please come down."
Hearing the sound, the noble lady still maintained her elegant pace and slowly walked down from the carriage.
But this time, two figures followed her down.
Both figures were wearing simple coats, but their faces were covered with a veil, making it difficult to see their specific faces.
However, by their body shapes, they can be identified as a man and a woman.
The man must be young, and he was a little embarrassed when facing Cao Xing's gaze.
The other woman's face was covered with a layer of white gauze, looking a little mysterious.
What surprised Cao Xing was that he couldn't see the information about these two people.
They seem to have used an extremely powerful hiding method that makes it difficult for outsiders to detect.
However, Cao Xing didn't think much about it.
Instead, he said directly: "Guys, let's go sit in the pub first."
The three of them nodded slightly, and then entered the tavern one by one.
As for the coachman at the door, he was still sitting on the carriage and had no intention of getting off.
Cao Xing didn't pay attention and entered the tavern.
The four of them took their seats.
The bartender Lucky was very discerning and quickly served four glasses of red wine to the four of them.
The rich aroma of wine is refreshing.
Cao Xing took the lead and asked: "Marita, has the curse on you been resolved?"
Hearing Cao Xing's concerned tone, a touched look appeared on the woman's face.
She chuckled and said: "I thought Lord Cao Xing would ask me first who these two are."
"I didn't expect you to care about my body first..."
"It seems that my weight in your heart is not small."
Cao Xing was stunned for a moment, and then said: "That's for sure. I have been worried about your situation since I left that time."
"But because Orchid Kingdom is too far away from here, I can't know your current situation. I can only pray for you in my heart."
The noble lady smiled sweetly and said, "What a sweet mouth~"
After a pause, she said slowly: "Thank you for your concern. My curse is no longer a problem for the time being."
[Because of your concern, Marita Villegas' favorability has increased...]
After hearing this, Cao Xing had a comfortable smile on his face.
However, what surprised him was that even heroic beings like Qinon couldn't suppress this [life-withering curse].
And Marita actually solved it so quickly?
Seemingly knowing his doubts, the noble lady said softly: "Actually, it's not completely solved. It's just that I used a method to suppress it temporarily."
"If a solution is not found, there will still be a risk of outbreaks in the future."
A look of surprise appeared in Cao Xing's eyes.
Sure enough, it was pretty much what I thought.
This life-withering curse is not that simple, and even she can only suppress it temporarily.
Cao Xing no longer asked this question, but turned around and asked: "Have you found out who placed this curse on you?"
Hearing this question, the lady shook her head.
With a trace of sadness on her face, she said: "It's not confirmed yet."
"But according to some clues we have, it points directly to an organization called the Watchmen."
"Watcher?" Cao Xing asked doubtfully.
"Yes, this is an extremely old organization that has not appeared on the mainland for many years."
"There is also very little information about this organization."
"I only know that in the war a thousand years ago, the Blood Legion that destroyed many kingdoms had the Watcher behind it."
"Now that the life-withering curse has reappeared, I suspect that the Blood Legion is likely to make a comeback."
"This is a big event for all the major kingdoms in the Western Continent."
"So, we have begun secretly investigating this force."
Cao Xing suddenly nodded.
From Marita's mouth, I got some key clues.
There is a high probability that the Watchers are behind the Blood Legion.
The Blood Legion may once again launch a war sweeping the entire Western Continent.
Cao Xing is quite interested in this force.
After all, many of the people in his territory have enmity with the Blood Legion.
The Shire tribe, the Centaur tribe, and the Orchid Kingdom were all invaded by the Blood Legion.
Blot thought about revenge all the time.
However, the strength of this blood army must be extremely terrifying!
From the clues revealed by these aborigines, it can be inferred that the Blood Legion once fought all the way, destroyed many kingdoms, and even almost unified the entire Western Continent.
As for the watchers behind them, they are probably even more powerful.
So, if the Blood Legion does make a comeback.
Then it is an extremely serious matter for the entire Western Continent and many kingdoms, and may even trigger a war that sweeps the entire continent.
By then...the troubled times will come.
Although heroes emerge from troubled times, lives are also lost in troubled times.
The survivors finally adapted, and the mortality rate dropped significantly.
Once a war of this scale occurs, it is estimated that no one will be able to survive alone. Everyone will be swept up by the general trend, and the death rate will increase dramatically!
However, when that situation does arise, those kingdoms will be the first to bear the brunt.
Thinking of this, Cao Xing no longer struggled with this issue.
So, he turned around and asked: "Ms. Marita, why did you come to see me today..."
Hearing this, the dignity on the face of the lady in front of him disappeared.
Instead, a smile like a blooming rose appeared.
She whispered: "Lord Cao Xing, have you forgotten what you entrusted me with last time?"
Cao Xing thought about it for a while, and then seemed to realize something, with a trace of uncertainty in his eyes.
"You mean...the blood of the Ascalonian royal family?"
The lady chuckled and nodded, "Yes, I found it."
"Moreover, I not only found this royal bloodline."
"I brought it here for you."
After Cao Xing heard this, a look of ecstasy suddenly appeared in his eyes.
Looking at Marita with fiery eyes, she felt even more excited.
Because once this royal bloodline appears, it means that he can open the treasures of the Ascalon underground palace!
Not only can you find a way to repair the legendary weapon - Magdale.
It may also contain a lot of treasures.
Just thinking about it is exciting!
Under Cao Xing's fiery gaze, Marita whispered: "Robin, take off your veil and let Lord Cao Xing see it."
As soon as he finished speaking, the man next to him took off the black veil on his face, revealing a relatively young Western face that looked to be fifteen or sixteen years old.
His nose is high, his eyes are deep blue, and his face has clear lines, giving him a tough look.
However, this young man looked a little embarrassed when facing Cao Xing's gaze.
He lowered his head and did not dare to look at him.
And his information was also displayed in front of Cao Xing.
[Apprentice Knight: Robin Scott] [Affiliated Force: Orchid Kingdom]
【Race: Human Race】
[Level: Level 19 (second-level elite creature)]
【HP: 4620/4620】
[Attack power: 237~249]
[Skills: Orchid Kingdom Swordsmanship, Intermediate Riding Proficiency, Orchid Blooms]
[Talent: Ascalon royal bloodline (the bloodline of the lost kingdom, if you inherit the crown of the kingdom, you have a chance to become the new king of Ascalon)]
…
Good guy!
There really is someone with the blood of the Ascalonian royal family.
Cao Xing was immediately overjoyed.
"Thank you so much, Marita, you really helped me a lot this time!"
Seeing how happy he was, Marita also had a faint smile on her bright lips.
She chuckled and said: "You're welcome."
"However, I also have a small request."
Cao Xing asked: "What is it?"
Marita did not hesitate and said directly: "We will stay in the snowstorm field for a few days, waiting for the arrival of the Chamber of Commerce."
"We have nowhere to go these days, so we have to stay in Lord Cao Xing's territory for a few days."
Hearing this, Cao Xing was stunned for a moment.
Then he smiled and shook his head and said: "I thought it was a request."
"You can live wherever you want, it doesn't matter how long you want, just treat this place as your own home."
Hearing his happy agreement, a gentle smile appeared on Marita's mature face.
Cao Xing looked at the veiled woman next to her again, "This is..."
Marita whispered: "One of my relatives, she will wait here with me for a few days."
Cao Xing's heart moved slightly, but he didn't ask any more questions.
"In this case, I will arrange a place for you to rest first."
"Tomorrow, I may take Robin to the ruins of Ascalon. There are a group of undead from the kingdom there. They have been waiting for many years."
Marita glanced at the boy next to her and asked, "Robin, do you have any objections?"
The young man's shoulders trembled, as if he was a little afraid of Marita.
He tremblingly replied: "No... no objection, Your Highness Marita..."
Marita nodded slightly.
Cao Xing continued: "Okay, then, I will take you to a place to rest."
After saying that, Cao Xing took them out of the high-end tavern.
Then two high-end residential homes were arranged for them.
It can be said to be a high standard of treatment.
After arranging Marita.
Cao Xing looked at the time again.
It is now almost twelve o'clock noon.
There are still 5 hours left before the end of the ‘Claws of Dolma’ challenge, when the giant beast of Dolma will appear.
I took a look at the current standings.
【Points ranking list of four major regions】
[First place: Cao Xing (accumulated points 153321)]
[Second place: Angelica dahurica (accumulated points 12935)]
[Third place: Bolt (accumulated points 12732)]
[Fourth place: Taylor (accumulated points 10552)]
[Fifth place: Wei Jianyi (accumulated points 9876)]
[Sixth place: Cheng Lu (accumulated points 8752)]
[Seventh place: Wuxing Tiger (accumulated points 7352)]
【……】
…
Cao Xing's points are almost more than ten times ahead of the second place.
It can be said that according to the current progress, even if he does nothing in the next eight days, no one will be able to surpass him.
In the chat channel, the survivors have long been numb to Cao Xing's terrifying point growth rate.
They also know that it is impossible for anyone to surpass Cao Xing, the gap is too big.
So in the current rankings, everyone is competing for the top three positions.
The competition can be said to be quite fierce.
In such a morning's effort, Bai Zhi squeezed Bolt down.
Cao Xing thought to himself: "According to Muxue's speed, he will score almost 90,000 points in one day. Including the reward from the Zhuoma beast, it will be almost 110,000, which is more than what I did in one day's battle yesterday."
"And if she and I fight separately, it will probably be more efficient."
So, Cao Xing pressed the communication button and asked: "Muxue, how is the war situation on your side?"
A voice soon came from the opposite side, "Axing, we have solved four Zhuoma beasts and are now preparing to find the fifth one."
There was some joy and excitement in his tone.
Today is her first time fighting alone, and so far, everything is going well.
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Cao Xing's mouth.
"Well done, Muxue."
"Now separate those swordsmen from the Kingdom of Stars and let them find the new location of Dolma's Claws."
"Then I will lead and we will fight on two fronts."
The person on the other side quickly understood what Cao Xing meant, and then quickly conveyed the message to everyone.
About twenty minutes later, one of the Star Kingdom swordsmen named 'Lin' reported: "Lord, I found a Dolma Claw about 20 kilometers away from the territory."
Cao Xing quickly replied: "Okay, I'll be over right away."
After saying that, Cao Xing mounted Dabai again, and then took Sarah to where the swordsman from the Kingdom of Stars was.
Although he left behind Marita, she was a powerful being of at least level seven and a mage.
Cao Xing just glanced at her information. Marita also had hidden methods, so she couldn't see her specific attributes.
But if a strong person of this level takes action, a high-level spell may cause heavy losses to his territory.
but? As an old acquaintance of mine, she shouldn't do anything bad.
And, no matter what happens, Francesca is still there.
With her current strength, she should be able to hold off a seventh-level archmage for a while.
At least there's nothing to worry about.
The mammoth moved forward with heavy steps.
However, Liu Muxue was not around, so Cao Xing looked directly at Sarah next to him.
"Sarah, give me your hand."
The dark elf was a little confused, but still stretched out his palm.
The next moment, he suddenly felt his palm being grabbed by Cao Xing.
Then he was pulled directly onto the back of the mammoth.
Under Sarah's surprised gaze, Cao Xing held her slim waist with both hands, and then placed it in front of him.
"Lord..."
Sarah turned her head, a blush on her face.
Cao Xing smiled and said nothing.
The mammoth took them running wildly in the snowy field.
He held the slender dark elf in his arms and held her slender waist.
Along the way, Sarah lowered her head and huddled in Cao Xing's arms, looking very embarrassed.
Although her relationship with Cao Xing was no longer that of a lord and a subordinate.
But in this broad daylight, she was held in his arms and rode together in Dabai.
For Sarah, this experience was the first time, and she was very shy.
This didn't last long.
Ten minutes later, Cao Xing arrived at his destination.
After Sarah saw the swordsman from the Kingdom of Stars waiting in front, she quickly broke away from Cao Xing's arms and jumped down.
Cao Xing smiled and shook his head.
at the same time.
Bron, Xiao, Victoria, Isabel.
There are also snake girl Ilena and beast-eared girl Heli waiting here.
Let’s deal with the original crew of this goblin camp.
After seeing Cao Xing, they all said respectfully: "I have met the lord."
Cao Xing nodded slightly, and then said: "You are all very efficient."
"Then now, let's start fighting directly!"
Everyone looked at the Ice Nest army below, with fighting spirit boiling in their eyes.
Then he rushed down with the force of a violent storm!
It's up to Sarah to deal with the 'Claw of Dolma' alone.
It turned into a black lightning and rushed directly to the head of Dolma Claw, slashing wildly.
This woman looks completely different in combat mode.
It's not the same style as the delicate one who was held in Cao Xing's arms just now.
The swordsmen below also started a head-on battle with the Ice Nest Monster.
This time, it took almost an hour and a half to kill more than 10,000 ice nest monsters.
Cao Xing did some math in his mind.
"Looking at it this way, including the time spent traveling and searching for the Icebrood Monster Legion, it will take me almost two hours to push down one legion."
"Muxue's side is a little faster than me, but it still takes about an hour and a half to push down an ice nest monster army."
"In total, although the speed has been reduced, the speed of gaining points has become faster."
"This is equivalent to, in four hours, I can defeat at least four Ice Nest monster legions, which is 52,000 points."
"Not bad, the speed of dividing the troops into battle has indeed increased a lot."
Thinking of this, he nodded with satisfaction.
Then he picked up the Claw of Dolma as usual, as well as the props dropped by the entire ice brood monster army.
[Obtain: Ice Dragon Core (Orange)*1]
[Obtain: Longyan Mine (gold)*1317]
[Obtain: Ice Dragon Mark*167196]
[Obtain: Glacier Splinter*78238]
【Get...】
…
Cao Xing ordered: "Everyone began to disperse and continue to search for the location of Zhuoma's Claw."
After everyone heard this, they took action one after another.
Next, they fought continuously throughout the afternoon.
When the time came to 4:50 pm.
On the points ranking list.
Cao Xing’s accumulated points have reached 231,179 points
This means that he earned another 130,000 points today.
If you include the 20,000 points from Zhuoma Behemoth, Cao Xing is guaranteed to get 150,000 points today.
Compared with yesterday, it increased by 50%!
This is equivalent to 50 high-level arms scrolls. You can imagine what the concept is.
In the chat channel, the survivors were once again deeply shocked by Cao Xing's even more terrifying growth rate than yesterday.
"That's outrageous! Boss Cao Xing's points have increased too much!"
"Indeed, with 130,000 points a day...I can exchange it for more than a thousand third-level imperial soldiers."
"I fought hard for a whole day with the legion to get one or two thousand points, but Cao Xing is more than a hundred times more powerful than me. It's really infuriating!"
"Who wouldn't be? I'm so envious. If I had Cao Xing's fraction, I would make a lot of money in one day!"
"..."
