Chapter 279: Crazy market, forming a centaur army! (6000)
There was a tsunami of calls in the chat channel!
"Oh my god! This is actually the secret medicine of life. It can directly restore two thousand health points. My current health value is only over three thousand. This bottle of medicine can directly restore my health to full! "
"Yeah, it's too scary. This secret medicine only has a 30-second cooldown. If I have enough of this secret medicine, I can even fight against boss-level monsters. By the way, I'm a knight!"
"Damn, keep a bottle of this thing with you, it's a life-saving thing!"
For everyone, nothing is more important than their own lives.
Cao Xing's secret medicine is surprisingly effective. One bottle of medicine can restore the health of most second-level survivors to full.
This is the life-saving medicine!
The survivors said one after another: "Brothers, please leave a bottle of this secret medicine for me. I have elders and younger ones."
"Leave a bottle for me too. Not to mention a thousand ice dragon marks, I'll give you two thousand in seconds!"
"Damn it, risk it all, I'll go find my ex-wife and borrow the ice dragon mark."
"..."
Just as they were preparing to borrow the Ice Dragon Mark, Cao Xing said: "Everyone, the reserve of this secret medicine is a little more than the last one."
"However, I am not going to use it to exchange for the ice dragon mark this time."
After hearing the latter sentence, the chat channel suddenly sounded disappointed.
However, some people still asked with a hint of hope: "So, Mr. Cao Xing, what do you need? Materials or drawings?"
Cao Xing said directly: "Training manuals, recruitment scrolls, pet contracts, etc. Of course, if you have some special drawings or equipment, you can also privately message me for pricing."
"I mainly collect centaur recruitment scrolls. The best training manuals are frost archers, shadow killers, and Ascalon warriors."
Hearing this, hope rekindled in the eyes of the survivors!
"Haha, I have two first-level centaur warrior recruitment scrolls. I thought the level of these things was too low, so I didn't summon them. I didn't expect that they would come in handy now."
"Training manual? I do have some training manuals for Frost Archers. There are not enough staff in the territory, so they have been useless."
"Great, I also have two recruitment scrolls for Centaur Lance and Shield Cavalry here, but they are for the first level. I don't know if Mr. Cao Xing will accept them!"
The survivors who had these scrolls in their hands were excited.
Cao Xing also quickly put the improved version of the secret medicine of life on the shelves, and then set the transaction price.
[Consignment item: Improved version of the Secret Medicine of Life (Part 2)]
[Item reserve: 1200]
[Items required: Centaur recruitment scroll, Frost Archer training manual, Shadow Killer training manual...]
[Consignor: Cao Xing]
[Seller’s note: One recruitment scroll is equal to 5 bottles of life elixir, one training book is equal to 2 bottles of life elixir, and 1 pet contract is equal to 1 bottle of life elixir. If it is elite level, the price can be increased further. 】
…
Cao Xing’s price is not high.
For all survivors, arms are the most important resource.
Even if they are recruited and sold as slaves, they can be exchanged for a lot of resources.
Of course, compared to selling slaves in exchange for resources, the improved version of the secret elixir of life is more tempting to them.
After all, one recruitment scroll can be exchanged for 5 bottles of life secret medicine, which is equivalent to five extra lives!
In an instant, a large number of survivors rushed to the market and traded with Cao Xing.
[The transaction is successful, you get [First-order Centaur Archer Recruitment Scroll]*2, you lose [Improved Life Secret Medicine]*10...]
[The transaction is successful, you get [Frost Bow and Arrow] Hand Training Manual]*5, you lost [Improved Version of Life Secret Medicine]*10...]
[The transaction was successful, you got [Intermediate Pet Contract (Blue)]*3, you lost [Improved Version] [Elixir of Life]*3...]
[The transaction is successful, you get [First-Level Centaur Lancer and Shield Cavalry Recruitment Scroll]*3, and you lose [Improved Essence of Life]*15...]
[Transaction successful...]
…
The system prompts the screen to be refreshed like crazy.
The trading event lasted for 5 minutes!
All 1,200 bottles of the secret life elixir that Cao Xing had on consignment were sold out.
Looking at the large number of recruitment scrolls in his backpack, Cao Xing couldn't help laughing.
"Hahaha! It's true that there is strength in numbers. It's not in vain that I have been preparing for so long to make this secret medicine."
This time, his harvest was beyond imagination!
Looking at the backpack, I got a total of this transaction.
[Centaur Warrior Recruitment Scroll*44]
[Centaur Lancer Shield Soldier Recruitment Scroll*57]
[Centaur Archer Recruitment Scroll*17]
These recruitment scrolls are all of the first level.
There is no way, the survivors at the current stage are not very high level, and all they get are first and second level scrolls.
They usually keep the second-level scrolls for themselves, and no one would trade such things.
"Very good, now we can form a centaur army!"
Cao Xing thought happily.
In addition, there are 172 [elementary + intermediate pet contracts] in total.
There are also [Frost Archer Training Manual]*24 copies and [Shadow Killer Training Manual]*7 copies.
Plus some miscellaneous materials and the like.
This transaction can be said to be quite lucrative!
Cao Xing patted his backpack with satisfaction.
"Sure enough, Francesca and Harold are my money printing machines. With these two people and me providing them with materials, we can continuously obtain resources from the market."
"That's great!"
Cao Xing thought: "Now, it's time to digest the gains this time."
"Those training manuals currently don't have any suitable candidates for training, but we can summon the centaurs first."
"After all, these centaurs are only first-level creatures, so it's better to raise their levels as soon as possible."
Of course, what Cao Xing admires most is the centaur's [riding] function, which can be combined with the wild boar warriors to form a different kind of knights.
But this thing requires 100 loyalty to unlock.
So Cao Xing called Kantel and Kandar over.
"Bahhhh!"
The familiar sound of horse hooves sounded.
"Lord, we are here!"
Cao Xing nodded slightly, "Kantel, Kandar, I will summon many centaurs in a moment, and I will leave it to you to lead the rest."
After hearing this, the two people immediately said: "Oh! Are there new companions coming?"
"Don't worry, strong lord, we will discipline them well!"
Cao Xing smiled, "Okay."
After saying that, he took out a large number of scrolls directly from his backpack.
[Do you want to use the first-level centaur warrior recruitment scroll*44? 】
【whether……】
Cao Xing directly clicked ‘Yes’!
At the same time.
A total of 118 six-pointed star formations appeared in front of Cao Xing.
These six-pointed star arrays are emitting energy fluctuations.
Rays of light soared into the sky, making it difficult to open one's eyes!
"Xilulu!!!"
Cao Xing heard the neighing of a large number of horses.
It seemed like a group of war horses were galloping wantonly.
At the same time, the rough voice belonging to the centaur sounded.
"Spiritual, proud, wild, and free! This is the main theme that belongs to us centaurs. The souls of our ancestors protect us!"
"Centaur warriors, centaur spear knights, centaur archers, Canlundin/Kanlahe/Canster... report to you!"
In an instant, more than a hundred centaurs stood straight on the spot.
Cao Xing glanced over and found that these centaurs were divided into three waves according to their professions.
The first wave was a centaur warrior like Cantel Candar, wearing light armor and holding a blunt instrument as a weapon.
On the other side, there was a group of heavy cavalry dressed in black heavy armor. Even the horses were covered with thick armor. They held a three-meter spear in their left hand and held up a shield!
At first glance, this group of heavy cavalry has high defensive power and amazing lethality.
Then, there were a dozen centaur archers holding bows and arrows.
What surprised Cao Xing was that these centaur archers were all women.
Compared to the group of centaur warriors, their four horse hooves are slender and their back curves are flatter.
The upper bodies of humans were covered with animal skin armor, covering their slightly perky breasts.
There are some ancient tattoo designs carved on the dark blue skin.
The lower body is also wearing animal skin armor and holding a big bow in his hand, which looks full of primitive atmosphere.
This group of centaurs also noticed the two people beside Cao Xing.
Kantor and Kandar are both centaurs, each holding a huge scythe and exuding a terrifying aura.
Compared to this group of first-order centaurs, they are countless times more powerful!
One of the centaur lancers exclaimed: "Two centaur warriors, you are really strong. The aura on your body even makes me feel like I am facing a captain!"
The centaur warriors also agreed, "Yes, these two are definitely well-known masters even in the army!"
Including the group of female centaurs looking at Kantel and Kandar, they were also full of admiration.
There were even a few female centaurs who winked at Kantor.
As a race that values strength, they also admire the strong and have unrestrained personalities.
Kantel and Kandar, on the other hand, became a little arrogant amid the bragging.
However, when they saw Cao Xing next to them, they suddenly recalled something.
Cantel said: "Of course, Kandar and I are already third-level leader-level warriors, but with various blessings from the lord, we can even deal with fourth-level centaurs!"
Those centaurs all echoed: "Oh! I can sense it. The two of them do have strength far beyond the third level."
"They are so lucky to have these two powerful centaur warriors in this territory!"
However, Cantor said: "No, you are mistaken. Before entering the summoning space, we were just ordinary centaur warriors with only second-level strength."
“Thanks to Lord Lord’s training along the way, we are where we are today!”
“We are lucky to be in this territory!”
After hearing this, the centaurs turned their attention to Cao Xing.
Only then did they notice the human being who looked low-key but had an extremely terrifying aura!
"So this is our lord, he looks stronger than these two centaur warriors!"
"That's right, I feel like the lord can kill us directly with just one look!"
As a level 40 frost mage, Cao Xing could indeed wipe out these centaurs with a single group attack spell.
He did not speak, but asked the centaurs to wait for a while.
At the same time, he called over Liu Muxue, Hilda, Blot and other group-state creatures.
When they saw the new centaurs appearing in this group, they understood what Cao Xing meant.
Suddenly a lot of group skills were released.
[Blessing of Courage], [Queen’s Will], [Resonance Totem]…
All the centaurs felt that a power far beyond their current level remained in their bodies permanently!
"Father Modier, this power is so terrifying..."
"Father! I feel that my current attack power can even cause damage to a third-level strong man!"
"I must be dreaming, how could there be such a terrifying blessing effect!"
Cantel immediately picked up the sickle and stepped forward and said: "You are not dreaming, these are just the effects of several blessings from the lord!" "From now on, you must follow us to defend the territory."
"Behave well. The Lord will not only give you more powerful blessings, but also make all your centaurs stronger!"
The centaurs suddenly became more excited and looked at Cao Xing with fiery eyes.
[Because you helped improve its strength, Centaur Lancer Canster’s loyalty has been increased. Current loyalty: 71]
【Because of you...】
…
More than a hundred system prompts appeared.
The loyalty of all centaurs has been increased to above 70!
Seeing this, Cao Xing also had a smile on his lips.
Then, he clicked on the attribute panels of these centaurs and took a look.
[Centaur Lancer: Canster]
[Level: Level 8 672/70000 (first-order ordinary creature)]

[Legion Skill: Victory Charge]
[Talent: None]

[Satiety: 69]
【Loyalty: 71】
…
"Not bad, the legion skill is also activated."
"Except for being relatively low-level, these centaurs basically have no shortcomings."
"As for those centaur warriors, there's no need to look at them. The evolution path is the same as Cantor's."
Thinking of this, Cao Xing said to them.
"Welcome, strong centaur warriors, centaur spear and shield cavalry, and archers."
"As Kantor and Kandar said, as long as you perform well, you will continue to get stronger here!"
"Let's build a strong territory together!"
All the centaurs immediately straightened their bodies, and then saluted at the same time: "I am willing to offer my loyalty to the powerful lord!"
Kantor said respectfully: "Lord, shall I take them over for training now?"
He seemed impatient.
But Cao Xing shook his head.
The levels of these centaurs are too low. It just so happens that the Ice Dragon Horn challenge will be held in the afternoon, which can quickly increase their levels.
However, the advancement of these more than a hundred centaurs requires a lot of power.
However, this is not a problem for Cao Xing, who has 2.54 million ice dragon marks.
He first opened the [Dragon Store] and spent 120,000 Ice Dragon Marks to exchange for 120 [Elementary Power Hearts].
Then he spent another 1.2 million Ice Dragon Seal to exchange for 120 [Intermediate Power Hearts].
A system prompt appears.
[Exchange successful, Ice Dragon Mark -1320000...]
…
In an instant, Cao Xing's two million Ice Dragon Seal reserves dropped to 1.22 million.
But it makes no difference.
After all, the most important thing is to digest these resources and use them to improve strength.
So, Cao Xing waved his hand and took out all the hearts of power.
The sight of hundreds of Power Hearts placed on the ground is quite spectacular.
The centaurs asked with surprised expressions: "Mighty Lord, what is this?"
Cao Xing said: "In our territory, the power of the first level is still too weak."
"There will be a large-scale battle in the afternoon. There will be a lot of monsters, enough for you to upgrade your level to level three."
"With these hearts of power, if you reach the current level limit during battle, exit the battlefield and make a breakthrough."
"Wait until the breakthrough is successful before joining the battle. Do you understand?"
All the centaurs looked attentive!
How could they not know that Cao Xing was helping them improve their strength.
With an excited look in his eyes, "I understand, Lord!"
"What a generous and powerful lord you are!"
The female centaurs added, "He is still a handsome lord!"
The next moment, a large number of system prompts appeared.
[Due to your generous gift, territory member: Canster’s loyalty has been greatly improved, current loyalty: 85]
[Due to your generous gift, territory member: Cammini’s loyalty has been greatly improved, current loyalty: 87]
【Because of you...】
…
Cao Xing showed no emotion in his performance, but he was secretly happy in his heart.
Eternal Power State + Heart of Power, two sets of them smashed together, almost no unit can withstand this kind of attack.
They all offered their loyalty to themselves, and all centaurs had a loyalty of more than 85!
Next, as long as you train for a while, it will be easy even if all members reach 100.
Cao Xing waved his hand, and then asked Kantel and Kandar to take the other centaurs for training.
Then, he continued to patrol the territory.
Along the way, we walked past the three-story lord's cabin, the five-meter-high King's Altar, and rows of residential houses and elemental arrow towers.
Looking at those buildings and a large number of residential buildings, Cao Xing was filled with emotion.
The entire territory has grown from a small bonfire to the scale it is today, which gives people a sense of accomplishment.
"Now, the population of the territory is increasing, and the second expansion can be carried out immediately."
"However, I used the tavern recruitment function last time, but it didn't seem to have any effect."
"I've been waiting for two days, but there's still no news of the new arrival's visit."
But after thinking about it, it was normal. After all, the recruitment function of the tavern was to issue invitations to the aborigines near the territory.
In addition, Cao Xing has been using the Ice Dragon Horn to challenge these two days.
The aborigines might have been frightened away after seeing the massive number of ice nest monsters.
Moreover, he now has enough manpower.
Time passes slowly.
Soon it was around 12 noon.
at the same time.
There was also news from Yao Yiming.
"Boss Cao Xing, we have rested and are ready to start the second wave of Ice Dragon Horn challenges."
"Okay, wait a moment, I'll call two people over to support the place."
Cao Xing was worried that the missed ice nest monsters would cause unexpected appearances, so it was safer to send two soldiers there.
So, Cao Xing called Jonard and Josante over and quickly explained to them what they were going to do.
The two tall dragon blood warriors immediately straightened up.
Cao Xing said: "You guys go over there. Under normal circumstances, there is no need to take action. If a monster attacks their territory, just kill them directly."
The two said respectfully: "I obey, Lord!"
After saying that, they left quickly.
A few minutes later, the two arrived near Yao Yiming's territory.
Cao Xing dialed Yao Yiming's communication and said, "It's time to start."
"Okay, Mr. Cao Xing."
After saying this, he and Cao Xing used the Ice Dragon Horn at the same time.
Regional announcement: "Please note to survivors, the survivor lord 'Yao Yiming' used [Ice Dragon Horn (middle)]..."
Regional announcement: "Attention survivors, the survivor lord 'Cao Xing' used [Ice Dragon Horn (middle)]..."
…
Two system prompts instantly exploded the chat channel in District 17.
"Brothers, Cao Xing and Yao Yiming actually used the medium horn at the same time. Are they preparing to sprint for the standings in the last two days?"
"Forget it, Mr. Cao Xing. There will definitely be no suspense for the first place this time, but this Yao Yiming is so fierce. He doesn't want to grab the second place, right?"
"It's very possible. Yao Yiming now has over 800 points and is ranked fifth, but as long as he challenges the medium ice dragon horn again, he can overtake him in one fell swoop and take the second position!"
"Holy crap! It seems to be true. This Yao Yiming is too fierce. Whose general is this?"
"Brothers, this person seems to be from District 174. Do you think it is possible that he is from Cao Xing?"
"..."
Everyone was shocked by the sudden appearance of Yao Yiming, a group of dark horses.
…
