Chapter 423 The last day, preparation before war! (5200)
Sarah explained: "Actually, there is no difference between ancient elves and ordinary elves."
"The reason why they are called that is because these elves were inherited from thousands of years ago."
"Ten thousand years ago, the human race had not become powerful at that time."
"The mainland is made up of three major ethnic groups: elves, dwarves, and giants, as the overlords of this world."
"They are the same as the human race. During their peak period, their traces could be found in every corner of the continent."
A thoughtful look appeared in Cao Xing's eyes.
He didn't know much about the history of this world.
So, the gradual rise of the human race took only ten thousand years?
And what happened during these ten thousand years?
Sarah's voice interrupted Cao Xing's thoughts.
"Later, because of that invasion war, it swept every corner of the world."
"Even these three powerful clans are not immune."
"The enemy was too powerful, and the elves also suffered heavy casualties, so they had to shrink their strength and concentrate on the southern continent, which is the origin of the three major clans."
"That is where the capitals of the three major tribes are located. With the help of the ****, the three major tribes managed to survive the war in the southern continent."
"However, until the end of the war, there were still some pure-blood elves who survived on other continents."
"Later, it was the era of the rise of the human race."
"More and more human races have sprung up on the continent. They formed tribes and civilization developed rapidly."
"With the construction of magnificent cities one after another, the living space of other races has also been compressed."
"And these remaining elves found some secret places, formed tribes and lived a secluded life."
"As time goes by, they gradually lose touch with the world, and they become what people call ancient elves."
"But it is also these ancient elves that preserve the purest blood of the elves..."
Cao Xing suddenly nodded.
This time, although Sarah's narration was blocked by the system, it did not have much impact.
At least Cao Xing confirmed one thing.
That is, it took these ten thousand years for the human race to rise.
This is somewhat intriguing.
However, Cao Xing also remembered this location in his mind and decided to explore it if he had the chance in the future.
With some doubts, Cao Xing said: "Sarah, there's nothing going on here. You can go train."
"Get used to the power in your body."
"As you command, Lord."
The dark elf nodded slightly and then disappeared.
After Sarah left.
Cao Xing carefully reviewed the information in his mind.
Next, he followed his usual routine.
First, he absorbed a magic crystal in the mage tower, then returned to the territory hut and slept peacefully.
The next day...
The Dolma challenge officially begins on the ninth day.
Cao Xing and Liu Muxue were still divided into three groups and began to rack up points like crazy!
At the end of the whole day, they once again collected 300,000 points, breaking the previous record!
When the giant Zhuoma beast was besieged and killed by everyone.
The survivors in the chat channel were almost numb when they watched Cao Xing's accumulated points jump from 1.25 million to 1.55 million.
Cao Xing himself looked at the accumulated points on the ranking list with satisfaction.
"Yes, this speed is much higher than I expected."
"In this way, when the challenge ends tomorrow, I estimate that I can get 1.85 million points?"
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt better.
At this moment, a different system prompt appeared in front of him.
【Notice! Because your unused points have exceeded one million, you are the only survivor in the server to reach one million points. 】
[Now open the hidden carousel for you - the legendary big carousel! 】
[Legendary Wheel: Spend 1 million points to draw a wheel, and there is a 50% probability of drawing legendary weapons, props, equipment, herbs, etc...
There is a 30% probability of drawing 2 epic props, a 15% probability of drawing 3 epic props, and a 5% probability of drawing a full epic set...]
…
"Holy shit! The legendary turntable!?"
"Not only can you get legendary equipment, but you can also get a full set of epic suits!"
"Isn't this too fierce?"
Cao Xing was stunned instantly!
But after thinking about it, he understood the reason.
Because today is already the ninth day of the Claws of Dolma challenge.
When the ten-day challenge ends and after 00:00 at night, the points store will close.
Someone like Cao Xing who has too many points cannot possibly use them all to exchange for recruitment scrolls.
One is because of population constraints.
The second reason is that each type of scroll has a limited purchase quantity.
Therefore, the system launched such a large hidden legend carousel.
Cao Xing said happily: "This is not bad. If you are lucky enough to get a piece of legendary equipment, you will make a lot of money!"
Of course, this thing requires 1 million points to draw once.
With so many points, you can even draw the epic wheel 10 times, and you are guaranteed to get 10 pieces of epic equipment or props.
But no matter how good the epic equipment is, it cannot compare to legendary equipment.
So how to choose remains to be considered...
Nothing to do tonight.
Cao Xing continued to meditate in the mage tower, and after absorbing a magic crystal, he returned to his lord's mansion comfortably.
Time flies by...
The night passed quickly.
The next day, the system prompt appeared on time.
[Attention all survivors, the ‘Claws of Dolma’ challenge on the tenth day has begun. 】
【Please note! Today is the last day of the challenge. The points ranking list will be locked at 22:00 at night, and the point store redemption will be closed at 00:00 in the morning. Please consume all points within the specified time to avoid unnecessary losses. 】
[At 00:00 in the morning, a protective shield will be raised over the territories with the top 10,000 points in each region, and all lords will be transported to a special plane. All survivors are asked to return within the specified time. Get back to the territory in time. 】
[Weather forecast: There will be light wind today and the temperature will be -47℃~-53℃. It is recommended to go out. 】
…
…
The system prompts on the last day were different from the previous ones.
The survivors in the four major districts immediately started a heated discussion.
"Wuhu! It's finally the last day! Nine days have greatly expanded the strength of my legion, and I can't wait to show off my skills."
"Holy crap, is it the last day so soon? I still have three thousand points left to form a Wild Boar Warrior Legion!"
"I still have a few thousand points left to form a new army of Silver Hand recruits. I hope I can still do it today."
"Hahaha! My hyena poacher army has finally been established. Brothers in the four major regions, pray, it is best not to touch me, otherwise remember to protect your butts!"
"Brother upstairs, may you need an anorectal doctor?"
"..."
……
At the same time, Cao Xing and Liu Muxue also woke up from the lord's mansion at the same time.
I glanced at the system prompts.
Cao Xing took a deep breath and said, "Muxue, today is the last day. There are a lot of things to do, so I won't go out."
"It's up to you, Bertie, and Assam to divide into three groups."
"Earn as many points as possible before the challenge ends."
Hearing this, the beauty beside the pillow clenched her fists and said solemnly: "Yeah! Don't worry, Axing, we will earn a lot of points!"
Cao Xing also smiled softly.
The two got up together and washed themselves quickly.
A few minutes later, they walked out of the lord's mansion together.
As just arranged.
Liu Muxue, Bojie, and Assam each led a team and left the territory in a mighty manner.
In the territory, only the guarding wild boar warriors and the staff were left.
Cao Xing first looked at the system prompt above his head.
[Dolma's Claw challenge ends at 17:32...]
Cao Xing thought: "At midnight tonight, the system will lock the quota and start the transmission."
"I will take away most of the combatants and leave some to protect the staff."
"The remaining staff must also seize the time to build the territory while we are gone."
"In other words, I have to arrange my work for the next month before early morning."
So, Cao Xing pressed the communication device on his ear and asked: "Kandar, how is the situation over at Lampli Grottoes?"
Kandar reported respectfully: "Strong Lord, the work here in the grotto is going smoothly."
"Now that the entire mine has been opened, the workers have reduced the risk of getting lost inside."
Cao Xing continued to ask: "Has mining started yet?"
"It's begun."
Kandar replied: "Our polars and goblins work very hard. I asked them to work eight hours a day, but they had to work twelve hours a day."
"In the past few days, they have collected a large amount of Shuanghua white quartz ore, as well as some other ores."
"Currently, six of the twelve transport trucks are already full."
Upon hearing this, Cao Xing had a look of satisfaction on his face.
"Very good. After twelve o'clock today, let the polar people transport all the ore back first."
"Then I will ask someone to prepare supplies for you for two months."
"You also come back to the territory, and I will send others over to protect their safety."
Although after Cao Xing and others leave, a protective shield will be raised to protect the territory.
However, creatures within the territory can still enter and leave freely.
Just like the newbie protection period.
And Kandar also knew that Cao Xing was going to a new battlefield. "I understand, strong lord, I will notify you immediately!"
After making arrangements for the Lampuri Grotto.
The communication device next to Cao Xing's ear rang with a "sizzling" sound of electricity.
Harati's slightly solemn voice came.
"Dear Lord, we have good news."
Cao Xing was stunned for a moment, then replied: "Harati, you say."
"On the edge of a high mountain cliff about 80 kilometers away from our territory, we found the location of the griffon's nest."
"This is a quite large griffon nest. There are more than 130 griffons in it, large and small..."
When he heard this, Cao Xing's eyes instantly lit up.
Good guy, there are actually so many?
If he could finish it all in one go, his Griffin Knights would be settled.
He even wants to take people with him right now to take down this griffon nest!
Harati continued: "But it's a bit troublesome. The nest is located next to a cliff thousands of meters high. There is a strange air flow there all year round, making it difficult to enter the nest easily."
"In addition, there is a quite powerful aura in the griffin's lair..."
A look of surprise appeared in Cao Xing's eyes.
It seems that there is no time to tame those griffins today.
So, he replied: "I understand, Harati, please lead the other centaurs back first."
"As commanded."
After cutting off the communication with Harati.
Cao Xing originally wanted to call Fitz Walker, but was prompted by the system.
[The person you are contacting has exceeded the maximum communication distance...]
…
Cao Xing was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to remember something.
"I almost forgot, I am only using a small communication device now, and the maximum communication distance is only 500 kilometers."
"It seems that if I have the opportunity in the future, I will have to look for more advanced communication equipment."
Cao Xing dragged his chin and continued to think.
"It seems that this kid Fitz Walker has probably arrived in the main city of Yongshuang. I don't know what the situation is like over there."
"Did you arrest those black-robed priests as I told you?"
He shook his head and threw these thoughts behind him.
After all, Fitz Walker's side was just a pawn arranged by Cao Xing.
It's best if you succeed.
Even if he failed, it would not have much impact on him.
at the same time.
A system prompt appears.
[Your lord's mansion has been successfully upgraded to level 9, with a population of +1000...]
…
Cao Xing's eyes suddenly lit up, "The Lord's Mansion has finally been upgraded successfully!"
He looked toward the center of the territory.
After the Lord's Mansion was upgraded to level 9, the height increased by another meter, and now the height of the entire building is almost over ten meters.
It looks full of majestic momentum.
Of course, the most important thing is not the height, but the increased population after upgrading.
"Very good, it seems that I can redeem 1,000 Ascalon warriors before zero o'clock, and gather a thousand bonds!"
"By then, the combat effectiveness will be greatly enhanced!"
You know, the total number of Cao Xing's current combatants has not exceeded one thousand!
If it can be redeemed, the overall strength of the legion will be greatly improved.
However, he was not in a hurry to redeem it.
Instead, he planned to wait until Liu Muxue's challenge was over.
First see how many points you can get today and then distribute them.
In the following time, Cao Xing made other preparations in the territory.
The first thing to do is to collect things like [Ashstone Engravings].
This thing is one of the main materials for making the [Statue of the God of Artisans].
Cao Xing thought that he would be able to see this statue built after he returned from the Oracle War.
"I hope I can find something like this in the market."
So, he opened the [Market] interface.
In an instant, another massive amount of consignment information emerged.
Cao Xing entered the keyword directly into the search interface.
Then clicked Search.
The system sifts through hundreds of thousands of consignment information across the four major regions at extremely fast speeds.
After a while, two messages appeared on it!
"Huh? There really is!"
Cao Xing suddenly became energetic.
He glanced at the consignment information above.
One was sent by a person named Zhou Chenyu, and what he needed was an epic piece of equipment.
Cao Xing frowned.
Although this kind of material is very precious, it is a bit of a shame to exchange a material for an epic-level weapon.
Cao Xing looked at the second consignment information.
[Items for consignment: ashlar engraving]
[Required items: advanced construction drawings, skill books, gold or above weapons or equipment. 】
【Consignor: Angelica dahurica】
[Seller's Note: This is a high-grade material, please check it yourself if necessary. 】
…
"Oh? It's actually this woman."
As the second in the rankings of the four major regions, Bai Zhi's name is not as influential as Cao Xing, but it is still widely known.
And before that, she also sold Cao Xing an epic skill book - Angel's Arrival.
So Cao Xing had some impressions of this woman.
With her strength, it is not surprising that she can obtain the material of ashlar engraving.
Moreover, Bai Zhi's bid was much fairer, but it only required gold-quality equipment or weapons.
There are indeed one or two pieces of golden equipment that have been eliminated in Cao Xing's backpack.
It's just that the level is a bit low. I don't know if this woman is willing to accept it.
He happened to have her friend, so Cao Xing opened the private chat interface and asked about it.
Cao Xing: "I want the ashlar engraving you consigned. What type of golden equipment do you need?"
Bai Zhi seemed to be seizing the time to kill monsters at the moment.
It took a few minutes for the message to come back.
Bai Zhi: "It's best to use a sword or a shield."
Cao Xing thought about it again and then replied.
"I don't have a golden-quality long sword here. I only have a level 10 golden shield. Do you want it?"
Bai Zhi: "The level is too low..."
"Do you want other golden equipment?"
After a while, the woman said: "Forget it, I'll just give it to you."
"Huh? Give it to me?"
"Well, it's not something important anyway. I'll inform the people left behind in the territory to just go to the market and trade with you."
It can be seen that this woman is also a resolute person.
A few minutes later, someone indeed sent a transaction application to Cao Xing.
And on the transaction column, a hexagonal stone was placed.
Just the ashlar engraving he needed.
Cao Xing thought for a moment and put a whole piece of [Lizard Master's Meat (Orange)] on it.
The two parties quickly completed a wave of transactions.
After getting the things, Cao Xing said happily: "Very good, I have almost prepared everything that needs to be prepared."
Next, he did other things in the territory.
On Bai Zhi's side, she heard news from the people below.
Cao Xing did not ask for her materials in vain, but when he put in an extremely powerful animal meat, there was a slight surprise in his eyes.
When she saw the properties of this lizard meat, she was shocked to the spot.
As the leader of a legion, Bai Zhi naturally knows the importance of this kind of lizard meat.
After a moment, the corners of his mouth curved.
…
…
Time flies.
Soon, it was around 6:30 pm.
Da Zhuang has already driven the transport convoy back to the territory.
Just as Kandar said, six transport trucks were filled with a large amount of ore.
Among them are the white [Frost Flower White Crystal Ore], the [Gold Ore] containing gold, and a small amount of [Mithril Ore].
Sorting out all these ores is also a huge profit.
At the same time, the challenge of the Zhuoma beast on the other side officially ended.
[Your territory member: Sarah Blade Dance successfully killed the Zhuoma beast lv50, a fifth-level commander-level creature...]
[Your output ranking is: 1. In this battle, you and your subjects caused a total of 241 million damage, and the point reward is: 24,100]
[Obtain the ranking reward Dolma Scale Fragment*1, Gold Points +5]
