Chapter 464: The S-level talent asks for help. (5000)
After arranging the group of griffons, Cao Xing thought to himself.
"Next, let the Griffin King fly to the top of Scott Mountain to complete the task of taming the beast."
"But before that, we must first find a potion that can increase cold resistance."
Cao Xing went straight to the market channel and entered the keyword [anti-cold medicine] on it.
Thousands of messages suddenly appeared in front of him.
The main tone of this world is coldness.
Once you leave town or shelter, the cold outside becomes unbearable.
But humans can't stay in the same place forever.
Over the years, those alchemists, pharmacists, and alchemists have been looking for various materials to make potions, props, etc. that can withstand the cold.
So there are quite a lot of such potions.
Including the survivors, they also got a lot.
On the market, there are various cold-resistant potions ranging from green quality to gold quality.
However, the effect of green-quality medicine is not significant. It can only withstand ordinary low-temperature environments and adapt to -30℃~-40℃ within 10 minutes after taking it.
Blue and purple quality potions have not improved much either.
Only gold quality and above can have obvious cold resistance effect.
Currently, there are only three people selling golden-quality anti-cold potions in the trading market,
They are all names that Cao Xing has never heard of.
Cao Xing was not stingy and directly exchanged a whole piece of [Lizard Master's Meat] for 10 bottles of [Anti-Cold Potion (Gold)].
Both parties are quite satisfied with the deal.
I looked at the properties.
【Cold-resistant Potion (Gold)】
[Quality: Treasure]
[Pharmaceutical effect: After taking it, in the next 30 minutes, the cold resistance will be greatly increased, and it can survive in the environment of -75℃~-85℃. 】
…
"Yes, with this bottle of potion, it should be enough to withstand the cold at an altitude of 20,000 meters."
Cao Xing called Assam over again.
"Knight of Assam, I have to give you a task now."
The knight immediately straightened up and said with a solemn expression: "Please give me the order, my dear lord!"
Cao Xing first handed him a bottle of potion.
Then he said: "Now take the Griffin King to Skavi Mountain, and then fly towards the top of the mountain."
"It may be a little high, about 20,000 meters, so remember to take anti-cold medicine first."
"On the top of the mountain, see if you can find a body. If you find it, just bring it down."
"If you can't find it, you can contact me directly through the communication device on your ear."
There are many capable people in Cao Xing's territory now.
Cao Xing no longer needs to do many things personally, he can just let his subordinates do it.
Assam nodded solemnly, "I understand, Lord, do you have any other instructions?"
Cao Xing thought for a while.
It was decided to simply let Assam do the follow-up tasks together.
So, he took out a long sword from his backpack and handed it to him.
"You also take this family heirloom sword with you."
"After finding the body, go directly to Melind City."
"You first find Earl Winston, hand the sword to him, and get back a land deed in the central area of Melinder City as a reward."
"Then find a beast tamer named Miles Gray, hand the body to him, and get the dragon taming reins back."
Assam took Cao Xing's instructions to heart one by one.
Then he said respectfully: "Don't worry, Lord, I have remembered it!"
After saying that, he took a bottle of [Anti-Cold Potion (Gold)].
After hearing the prompt that [Eternal Power] took effect, Assam immediately jumped on the back of the Griffin King.
Then directly control Lao Wang to take off.
"Hoo——"
The Griffin King flapped his wings and rushed directly to a height of 100 meters.
Then, he rushed forward at a terrifying speed!
In the blink of an eye, it turned into a black dot and disappeared into the horizon.
at the same time.
There was also news from Bertie Sun Chaser.
"Lord, we have successfully found an enhanced version of the Ice Nest."
"As you said, the Ice Nest monsters born here are much more powerful, even almost as powerful as the Ice Nest monsters during the Dragon War!"
The period of the Dragon War that Bojie mentioned was naturally the time when the Norn clan fought against the ice dragon Dolma.
The ice nest monsters there have not been weakened by any lord system.
Cao Xing asked: "Do you need manpower?"
"It is not needed at the moment. Our strength is enough to deal with it."
Cao Xing nodded and said: "Very good, the number of monsters hatched in an ice nest is limited. After you kill the monsters inside, destroy the ice nest directly, and then continue to look for the next one."
"As you command, Lord."
"I am ready to lead the soldiers to attack now."
"Okay."
Both parties hung up the communication.
Soon, Cao Xing saw the battle information from Bo Jie.
[Your territory member: Bertie Sun Chaser killed the Ice Nest Monster lv65 and gained experience points: 5005 (pale tree bonus)]
[Experience points gained by combatants: 2502]
…
Seeing this prompt, Cao Xing sighed.
"Sure enough, the level of the ice nest monster has been raised to above level 60. This improvement is really a bit abnormal!"
"Other survivors must at least unite and form a legion of several thousand people to be able to deal with it with confidence."
"It might even be life-threatening."
Cao Xing is very comfortable and can gain experience while lying at home.
And the efficiency is much higher than them.
"Very good, I have finished one more thing that I have to do now."
"Now, it's time to send out other people to prepare for the next action."
So Cao Xing called Heli and Elisa over.
"Lord, please call me!"
"Lord, I am here."
Although both women are adults, they are not very tall.
And there is another thing in common, that is, no thunder...
Cao Xing nodded, "Heli, Elisa, there is a very important task for you next."
Upon hearing this, the expressions on the two women's faces suddenly became serious.
Because Cao Xing would not say that under normal circumstances.
Even he said it was very important, so it must be a very serious task.
Four watery eyes stared at him, seeming to be waiting for Cao Xing's specific instructions.
"Next, I will provide you with a general direction, and you will move forward according to this direction."
"After advancing for almost 3,000 kilometers, we stopped and searched for traces of the humpback giant eagle nearby."
After hearing this, the two women had doubtful looks in their eyes.
Elisa tilted her head and asked: "Lord, are you going to catch those giant eagles?"
Cao Xing shook his head, "No, but the place where the humpback giant eagle is, may be the stronghold of the Church of Light."
The light in the pupils of the two girls flashed.
They all know that the Church of Light is the enemy of their lord.
Now that I have given myself this task, it seems that I am ready to take action against this force.
Cao Xing continued: "Based on this clue, you two will search for the location of the Bright Church's stronghold along the road."
"It doesn't matter if it's a branch or a transfer station."
"Of course, it would be best if we could find their headquarters."
Now, Heli has become a sixth-level leader-level assassin, with incredible stealth abilities.
As for Elisa...
This little girl is a bit evil...
It is an evil sect in the true sense.
She seems to be able to find anything. If you take her with you, you might have a greater chance of finding the headquarters of the Church of Light.
The two girls also knew the importance of this task and immediately said respectfully.
"We understand, Lord."
Cao Xing nodded slightly, then raised his hand.
One of the adult griffons that was training with the Silver Hand flew over alone.
"This griffon will be given to you as a means of transportation."
Heli and Elisa's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Wow... we can ride gryphons too!"
Cao Xing smiled, and then took out a few more things.
"By the way, bring these things too."
"When in danger, use it immediately and then escape."
Cao Xing handed the [Ancient Divine Weapon Seal], [Glowing Meteorite], and more than a hundred bottles of advanced life secret medicine in his backpack to the two women respectively.
Elisa and Hurley each took it.
Cao Xing continued to give instructions.
"Remember, I only need you to confirm the location of these strongholds of the Church of Light. You must not explore in depth. Do you understand?"
"Yeah!"
The two little girls nodded like chickens pecking at rice, memorizing Cao Xing's words one by one.
After everything was ready, they jumped onto the back of the griffin with a slight jump.
Then he waved to Cao Xing and said.
"Lord, we are setting off, let's wait for the good news from Elisa!" "Goodbye, Lord!"
Cao Xing also waved his hand to say goodbye to the two little girls.
The gryphon led them towards the sky at high speed and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Then, Cao Xing called Renesi again.
"Renice, I also have a task to answer on your side."
"Please give the order!" The female archer held the longbow tightly in her hand, like a soldier waiting for the commander to issue an order.
Cao Xing said: "Next, I need you to go to a place where there seems to be an ancient tribe."
"I just need you to check to see if anyone is living inside."
"Don't disturb the creatures inside."
The tribe Cao Xing asked her to go to was where Sarah said last time that there might be ancient elves living.
In order to prevent missing, I asked Renes to explore first.
In fact, this task is most suitable for Sarah.
Not only is she a dark elf, she is also an assassin with extremely strong stealth abilities.
But as the strongest combat force in the territory and Cao Xing's personal bodyguard, Sarah could not leave easily.
In comparison, Cao Xing cares more about his own life.
Renes nodded respectfully, "I understand!"
After saying this, she also rode on a griffin and left the territory.
I have to say that it is really convenient after taming a large number of griffins.
Members in the territory can be led by this creature wherever they want to go, which not only saves a lot of time, but also increases safety.
When the woman's figure also turned into a black shadow and disappeared from the horizon.
Cao Xing said with emotion: "Now, for the next few things I am going to do, someone has already explored the path first."
"When they bring back the information, we can take direct action."
This has also been Cao Xing's code of conduct.
No matter where you go, first explore the situation and confirm the dangers inside and the strength of the enemy.
Then adjust the corresponding tactics and take action.
In this way, you can get the maximum benefit while ensuring your own safety.
After doing this, Cao Xing thought in his heart.
"Is there anything else to do next?"
"Oh, by the way! There is also a recruitment function in the tavern, and a Shining Star function in the Shining Throne once a week!"
Both functions can continue to be used at intervals.
Especially the latter, this [Sparkling Star] function is very powerful.
Last time, I relied on it to find myself a priceless vein of frost white crystal stone!
And he also obtained something as powerful as the Lizardman Ancestor Statue inside.
The cooldown time has now passed and can be used again.
So, Cao Xing quickly went to the [High-end Tavern] and clicked on the recruitment function.
Then he went to the interior of the lord's castle and came to the throne inlaid with many gems.
A ray of light soared into the sky, turned into a star, and fell towards an unknown corner in the distance.
On the small map, a dark area suddenly lit up.
Cao Xing took a look.
"This time it is quite far away from me, more than 130 kilometers."
"The marked place seems to be in a plain area. Is there anything in this area?"
"It seems that we still have to ask someone to go out and investigate."
So, Cao Xing summoned the centaur Harati and gave her the task of exploring that location.
After receiving the mission, the centaur saint quickly rushed out with four hooves.
"Very good, I've basically done everything I have to do now."
"I can be a hands-off shopkeeper for the next few days."
"Then after Francesca makes enough holy water, we can attack the ancient battlefield!"
Cao Xing had already made a plan in his mind.
Then he wandered around the territory.
While walking around, I suddenly heard the melodious sound of a piano.
"Zhengzheng..."
The sound is crisp and full.
This is the unique sound of the lute.
The melodious notes echoed in the territory, and each note seemed to carry magical power and could touch people's deepest emotions.
Including the polar people who were working and the knights who were cooperating with the griffin training, they couldn't help but stop their movements.
Everyone stood there, quietly enjoying the wonderful sound of the piano.
As the performance gets better and better.
Many people had a look of reminiscence in their eyes.
And Cao Xing also recalled the beautiful singing he heard in that tavern.
However, the performance this time was equally wonderful.
But without that kind of singing, it always feels like something is missing.
There was an inexplicable regret in my heart.
Cao Xing thought: "If there is a chance, let's find a way to restore this woman's voice."
"After the first monster siege is over, I will go to the main city of Yongshuang."
"And by the way, I asked if anyone could treat this woman's vocal cords."
Thinking of this, Cao Xing continued to wander while listening to the ditty played by Gwyneth.
Live the leisurely life of a lord.
…
…
at the same time.
In a certain urban area, in a dark basement.
A man with pale skin and horrific scars was still sending private messages.
"Cao Xing! You must see my message!"
"Only you can save me!"
“Be sure to reply to my message!!”
While he was waiting eagerly.
The basement door was pushed open.
"Crunch——"
With the harsh sound of hinges turning.
After a while, a tall and thin man walked in from outside the door, holding various tools in his hands.
His eye sockets were sunken, and there was something scary and strange in his pupils.
Especially his ten fingers, like the claws of a wild beast, slender and sharp.
Saw this person coming in.
The man who was lying on the small wooden bed and constantly sending messages to Cao Xing suddenly closed his eyes.
There was no breath coming out of him, and he lay quietly on the workbench as if he was dead.
Next to him, the tall and lanky man grinned in an exaggerated arc.
"I know you're not asleep...hehe..."
"Little guy... Now we are going to start the 73rd experiment..."
"Today, I am going to cut open your skull to see if the structure inside is different from ours."
"Then try again and take out your brain. In the meantime, I hope you can bear it and not die."
Hearing the next words, the man on the small wooden bed trembled subconsciously!
A sudden fear penetrated his bones.
He wanted to escape, but because his body was tightly trapped, he had no chance at all.
In his desperate eyes, he saw the tall and thin man gradually approaching, holding a bright broadsword in his hand.
Start directly along his forehead and slowly move across it...
A moment later, the man's shrill screams echoed throughout the basement again!
…
…
A few hours later.
Cao Xing, who was bored, was cleaning up the information on the private chat interface.
The above is still 99999+
As soon as I opened it, an overwhelming number of private messages came through.
Originally, Cao Xing was planning to clear it all with one click.
At this time, he noticed that a survivor sent him a dozen messages in a row.
Tian Jing: "Boss Cao Xing, help me!"
Tian Jing: "Boss Cao Xing, I was caught by a damn native. They are using me for inhumane research."
Tian Jing: "I have an S-level talent. I have watched the live broadcast. Your combat power is so terrifying, you must be a talent."
"Please...save me."
These dozen messages, especially the last message, immediately attracted Cao Xing's attention.
Is he actually an S-level talent? This is a bit interesting.
He sent back a message.
"What's going on with you?"
The person on the other end didn't know what he was doing, and it took him more than ten minutes to get back the message.
Tian Jing: "Great! Boss Cao Xing, you finally responded to me!"
"God bless, fortunately you didn't block me!"
Cao Xing replied: "Let's get down to business, what is your S-level talent, and how did you get caught?"
He knows how powerful S-level talent is.
After all, the Goblin King's talent is only A level, and he can already control all the Frost Goblins.
And S-level talents must be even more abnormal.
This Tian Jing said quickly: "Boss Cao Xing, my S-level talent is called immortality..."
