Chapter 457: Expert level control, the bard comes to visit. (5400)

With the mechanic's drawings, you can enter the explosive mode.

However, the only flaw is that even robots need to occupy people.

But now his lord's castle has reached level 11, with a population of 6,000!

Each subsequent level will increase the population by 2,000, which is still very sufficient.

Cao Xing touched Tong Chuchu's head, "Yes, little Chuchu, these two drawings are very powerful and can increase the territory's combat power a lot."

After receiving Cao Xing's praise, the little girl's face A happy smile appears.

"Hey, hey, big brother, just like it."

Cao Xing smiled.

“Let’s go, let’s find Goblin Locke and ask him to make these two robots.”

After hearing the next sentence, Xiao Chuchu asked with wide eyes and confusion.

“Are you looking for that ugly uncle goblin?”

As the saying goes, children’s words are unbridled.

Since the last time they saw this goblin in that cave, Elisa and Tong Chuchu have been calling him ugly goblin uncle.

This also made Goblin Locke very reluctant to see these two little girls.

Cao Xing smiled, "Yes."

"Follow me, little Chuchu."

"Okay big brother."

Tong Chuchu followed obediently Next to Cao Xing, the two walked side by side.

The brick and stone floors in the territory made a 'treading' sound.

Not to mention, this scene really feels like a father taking care of his daughter.

Soon, they arrived near the machinery factory together.

Cao Xing also noticed that several strange large devices appeared in the open space next to the factory.

Those are some huge oval-shaped airbags with a length of about seventy or eighty meters.

The air bag is made of some kind of tough special fabric, with a solid metal cabin hanging underneath.

The metal cabin is very large, almost equivalent to a small mobile room.

There is also a huge propeller on both the front and rear sides.

This is the [Advanced Goblin Airship]. It has a tough appearance and is full of goblin characteristics.

Cao Xing also had a look of admiration on his face.

“Based on the fact that one goblin airship can carry 208 people, there are 8 of them here, which can carry more than 1,600 people...”

"Locke is very efficient!"

"It seems that this goblin has not been lazy this month."

Cao Xing smiled and then knocked on the door of the machinery factory.

“Boom! Boom!”

No one responded the first time.

Cao Xing knocked three more times.

Impatient voices suddenly came from inside.

“Oh! My God, stop knocking!”

“Don’t you know the working environment in the machinery factory is very noisy?”

“Let me Look, what blind guy is interrupting the work of the great Goblin Locke!”

Goblin Locke opened his short legs and walked out cursing.

It looked like he was raising an army to accuse him.

When he pushed open the door and saw the figure standing in front of him, his expression suddenly froze.

"Lord..."

"That...you are back..."

In almost a fraction of a second, he quickly put on a smiling face.

"I'm really sorry, Locke didn't receive the news and didn't know that the wise and powerful lord had returned!"

"I was so derelict in my duty!"

This guy behaved He had to look regretful.

Cao Xing smiled and did not continue to listen to this goblin's slander.

Instead, he asked directly: "Locke, I asked you to upgrade the Earth Dragon Mecha to the master level a month ago. How is the progress now?"

The goblin craftsman quickly reported: "The Crypt Blessed by God, the upgrade of the mecha went very smoothly, and it will be completed soon!"

"We will rush to work on it tonight, and we will finish it tomorrow! Soon, you will be able to lead the new, beautiful, and powerful Earth Dragon Mecha to fight!”

“Believe me, Lord, you will be satisfied with the Master Level Earth Dragon Mecha.”

Cao Xing nodded, "Yes, I have two more drawings that I need to give you to make."

"After the Earth Dragon Mecha is repaired, you can make this specifically."

After saying this, he threw the drawing directly over.

Goblin Locke stretched out his withered little hand, took the drawing, put it in front of his eyes and looked at it.

A thoughtful look appeared in the dark green pupils.

“What is recorded here seems to be a kind of technology that I have never seen before.”

"However, the overall structure is similar to the goblin technology. It is a bit like the miniature combat mecha and humanoid reconnaissance mecha of our goblin clan."

Cao Xing asked: "This kind of technology does not belong to the goblin clan. Can it be made? ?”

Goblin Locke replied quickly.

"No problem, dear Lord, I will try my best to build these two robots next!"

"Very good, come on Locke."

After saying that, he took Tong Chuchu and left here.

The two soon arrived at the center of the territory.

"Xiao Chuchu, there is nothing to do today, you should go and rest."

But Xiao Chuchu shook his little head and said.

“Brother, I’m not tired. I’m going to play with sister Elisa later. She said she would take me to the forest outside to dig out bird’s nests today!”

Cao Xing was slightly startled.

Then he looked at Tong Chuchu strangely.

Speaking of which, this little girl came into this world.

Except for the hard time when I first arrived, after I came to Cao Xing’s territory, it can be said that my life was wonderful every day.

Fighting monsters, farming, digging bird nests, fishing, she has done it all.

For a young girl, Tong Chuchu's experience can be said to be quite rich.

Cao Xing also doesn’t know what kind of person Tong Chuchu will become when he grows up in this environment.

But these are things for later.

Cao Xing smiled and said: "Okay, be careful when you go outside the territory."

Tong Chuchu nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "Okay big brother, I will be careful. ”

After saying that, she jumped away from here and went to find Elisa.

After Tong Chuchu left, Cao Xing opened his personal panel and looked at the life skills on it.

[Advanced Control Technique: 385/5000]

[Skill Effect: All attack power +5%, morale increased by 5%]



In the previous continuous command battles, this skill was also directly stacked to the advanced level.

These life-related skills are quite simple from beginner to advanced.

You only need to study hard and practice hard, depending on your personal talent and hard work.

In 1 to 10 years, it is almost possible to upgrade a technology to an advanced level.

But once the life skills reach an advanced level, it will be very difficult to go further.

In addition to hard work, you also need to have enough talent to become an expert in an industry.

But it will be much simpler with this kind of coat of arms.

Just use it directly.

[Whether to consume expert-level emblem*1 to upgrade special skills: advanced control]

“Yes.”

As Cao Xing clicked OK, a coat of arms disappeared from his backpack.

At the same time.

A massive amount of memories flooded into his mind.

In these memories, there are some scenes of galloping on the battlefield, commanding, and arranging troops.

Not only can it increase his command experience, but it can also expose him to some new tactics.

When all memories are absorbed.

Cao Xing opened his eyes.

[You have used the expert-level emblem, and your advanced command skill proficiency has increased by 5,000 points]

[Your command skill has been upgraded to expert level. 】

Cao Xing praised: "Very good, I now have an expert life skill."

Looked at the attributes.

[Expert Level Control Technique]

[Proficiency: 358/50000]

[Heart of Control: 0/1]

[Skill effect: All attack power +10%, morale increased by 10%]

“The breakthrough from advanced to expert actually adds an additional 5% attack power, which is really good! ”

“But it’s a bit troublesome to break through to the master. In addition to having a proficiency of 50,000, you also need a heart of control.”

This heart of control is easy to understand. .

Just like Harold's [Blacksmithing] Breakthrough Master requires a craftsman soul.

Cao Xing’s [Control Technique] breakthrough master also requires another key thing.

There was no idea about this [Heart of Dominance], so Cao Xing stopped thinking about it.

After all, expert level control skills are enough.

Cao Xing thought to himself: "Now, there are three expert-level emblems left in the backpack..."

"Let's upgrade other people's life skills to expert level."

He went straight to the alchemy workshop.

As the door opened, a wave of strange medicine boxes came to the face.

The witch Francesca has continued to refine the potion.

As one of the top three combat forces in the territory, Cao Xing also brought her along in this Oracle battle.

Therefore, the medicine refining work in the territory was put on hold.

But this woman is also very hard-working. She just came out of the Oracle Battlefield and started working immediately.

Cao Xing asked: "Francesca, how many bottles of holy water have been made?"

The amount of holy water determines whether Cao Xing can bulldoze the ancient battlefield with minimal damage.

Of course, the more, the better.

The witch raised her head slightly, her long eyelashes fluttering.

"There are about 500 bottles now."

"If I go all out now, I can make 300 bottles every day, but I don't have time to refine other potions."

Hearing this number, Cao Xing calculated it in his mind.

There are a total of 1547 melee units in your territory.

If each of them was given a bottle of holy water, more than a thousand bottles would be needed. And he also needs to keep some holy water for backup.

After all, holy water can not only strengthen the damage to the undead, but also weaken the attributes of the undead.

To deal with some powerful undead, the effect is outstanding.

In other words, Cao Xing needs to have about 2,000 bottles of holy water before he can officially start to deal with the ancient battlefield!

"According to 300 bottles a day, we can reach the target number in about five days."

"Very good, just in time to eliminate the threat of this ancient battlefield before the first wave of monsters attack the city!"

Cao Xing said: "This period of time has been hard on you."

Francesca shook her head slightly, as if she didn't care.

Then, Cao Xing came to Sabina again and upgraded her [Advanced Poison Mastery] to [Expert Poison Mastery]

Speaking of which, mastery of poison and mastery of refining medicine are different.

Poison mastery can only make some poisons, such as nightmare potion, frog potion, etc.

Although it is also very useful, it is not as versatile as the mastery of alchemy.

Cao Xing also remembers it.

The original agreement made with this woman was to let her serve in the territory for three months, and then let her advance to the fourth level and go back for revenge.

Now, before I know it, two months have passed.

Of course, it doesn’t matter when the time comes.

After all, the contract can be renewed with 100 loyalty.

As for Sabina's enemy...

It's just a local little nobleman, and he can be killed by just sending two people there.

Cao Xing smiled in his heart.

Then, with Sabina’s grateful eyes, she left the alchemy workshop.

Next, he found the painter Edward to help him upgrade his [Advanced Painting Proficiency] to [Expert Painting Proficiency].

After doing this, Cao Xing only had the last [Expert Crest] left in his hand.

He decided to keep this one for now.

Maybe you can meet other high-level talents in the future, and you can put them to use then.

At this point, another harvest from the Oracle War has been digested.

Just as Cao Xing was preparing to continue patrolling the territory.

The system prompt appears.

[Ice Crystal Kingdom: Gwyneth applied to visit your territory, do you agree? 】

Seeing this prompt, Cao Xing gradually showed a thoughtful look in his eyes.

"Gwyneth... such a familiar name."

But soon, he remembered who the name was.

"This person seems to be the bard from Melind City who sings beautifully..."

"How did she find my territory?"

With a strange expression, Cao Xing clicked 'Confirm'.

At the same time.

On the snow ahead, a ragged figure walked towards the territory.

Her steps were gentle, but she revealed a sense of exhaustion.

Compared to the last time I saw Gwyneth in the pub, she looked so glamorous.

The woman became much more haggard.

Her hair was as messy as withered grass, and there seemed to be dirt deliberately smeared on her face, covering up her beautiful face.

The originally bright eyes have now become dull and sunken.

It is completely impossible to tell that she is the bard who sang in the tavern and amazed everyone.

Cao Xing stood at the gate and watched the woman slowly walking towards him.

She also noticed Cao Xing.

After getting closer, she gradually raised her head.

A flash of light suddenly appeared in the dim pupils.

Then he quickened his pace and walked towards him.

After the two met, Gwyneth became somewhat uncontrollably excited.

Stretch out your black-gloved hands, clasping your hands together in a prayer gesture.

Cao Xing was the first to ask: "What's the matter with you coming to my territory?"

Hearing this, Gwyneth slowly opened her chapped lips .

"Ah...uh...uh..."

An inexplicable sound came from his throat.

She pointed to her mouth and waved her hand.

At this moment, Cao Xing thought back.

This woman was poisoned by the black-billed crow's poison. After the poison was released, her vocal cords were damaged and she was no longer able to speak.

Cao Xing thought for a moment, pressed the communication device on his ear, and switched to the team channel.

"Does any of you understand sign language?"

When the soldiers in the territory heard Cao Xing's voice, doubts appeared in their eyes.

After a moment, a majestic voice sounded.

“I know a little bit.”

The person speaking was Victoria, the Queen of Qi Nian.

"Very good. Come to the territory gate now. I'll wait for you here."

"Well, I'll be right over."

A moment later.

A touch of beauty comes.

She is wearing a blue mage robe, which outlines her hot figure.

He was wearing a white wolf fur coat, and his hands hung naturally by his sides.

He walked towards Cao Xing step by step with a dignified manner.

It is Victoria.

When she came to my side.

Cao Xing said: "Help me translate, what is this woman saying."

Gwyneth quietly held the lute in her hands and stared at the queen with extraordinary temperament.

There was a slight surprise in his eyes.

It seems a little surprising that there is such a refined and refined person in this territory.

As Victoria's majestic gaze swept across, Gwyneth actually felt like a light on her back.

Then she stretched out her hand and made slow gestures.

Victoria nodded while staring slightly at the woman in front of her.

After a moment, the Queen of Nianqi turned her head and translated.

“She said that you reminded her of the black-billed crow’s poison last time in the tavern of Melind City, and she followed your advice and went to see a doctor in the city.”
< br>“But the doctors didn’t find any symptoms , until after the poison took hold, I remembered your warning."

"However, it was too late by then. The poison of the Black-billed Duck completely destroyed her vocal cords, and the Woodpecker Chamber of Commerce searched for doctors all over the city. There is no way.”

"Since then, she has been unable to speak."

"During that time, she almost lost hope in life."

Victoria looked at her gestures and translated simultaneously .

Then he continued: "One day, she suddenly thought of you and felt that since you knew that she had been poisoned by the black-billed duck, you might have a way to restore her voice."

"She didn't want to lose her voice, so she left the city resolutely, and then came to the wilderness alone."

"It took nearly a month to reach our territory through the information from the Woodpecker Chamber of Commerce."

After hearing this, Cao Xing understood the whole story.

And why she came to her territory.

Looking at the bard, admiration appeared in his eyes.

I have to say that this woman’s perseverance is amazing.

A woman who cannot speak is alone in this dangerous and cold world, spanning more than 500 kilometers.

After a month of long journey, we arrived at our own territory.

During this period, you don’t have to think about it to know that you must have suffered a lot.

But Cao Xing had no choice.

It would be okay if she found him before the poison took effect.

After all, with the Light Feather Chicken here, a [Purifying Light] can resolve the [Black-billed Crow's Poison] in her body.

However, this woman only found herself after she was poisoned.

Now if we want her to regain her voice, she can only heal her vocal cords first.

Cao Xing sighed, then shook his head and said: "I don't know how to get your voice back."

"It's a pity."

Hearing this, the woman was stunned...

As if her hope had failed, she stood there blankly.

I don’t know how long it has been.

She took a deep breath and gradually came back to her senses.

She looked at Cao Xing, nodded slightly, and made gestures again.

Victoria next to her translated: "She said, thank you for disturbing you."

After saying that, the woman hugged the lute, turned around and walked outside the territory.

However, her back looked so lonely, and her beautiful eyes became dim.

After a month of long journey, I finally found this chosen lord, my only hope.

As a result, the other party’s reply was that there was nothing we could do.

If it were an ordinary person, I am afraid that they would not be able to withstand this kind of blow long ago, and would lose the motivation to continue living.

And this woman didn't seem to give up.

She seems to want to go to other places.

Cao Xing stared at her back with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

This woman is not only a master in singing.

There are also master-level musical instrument proficiency, advanced performance proficiency, advanced poetry creation and other skills.

Even if he can't speak, he is still a rare talent.

Moreover, the fact that she was able to find her own territory from Melind City by herself shows her fate with Cao Xing.

After thinking for a moment, Cao Xing stopped her.

“Wait a minute.”

Ahead, Gwyneth, who had walked out more than ten meters, froze and slowly turned her head.

Looked at Cao Xing with a puzzled expression.

Cao Xing asked directly: "What are your plans next?"

The woman thought for a moment and gestured again.

Victoria said: "She said that she would go to other cities to see if she could find a way to restore her voice..."

Cao Xing looked at her and said seriously.

“Gwyneth, are you willing to join my territory?”
