Chapter 299 Hidden dangers in the ancient battlefield, the army of the undead (6000)
Cao Xing controlled the vines at will.
What should I say about how he feels now? It's as if his territory has become a 3D floor plan and he can move these territory buildings at will.
Including which residential houses, sewing shops, blacksmith shops, etc.
He can move it however he wants. He only needs to lay down the ground and clean up the debris afterwards.
Cao Xing had a sudden thought at this time, "Since the sewing shop and the blacksmith shop can be moved, can the furnace and the lord's mansion be moved?"
If it is possible, then Cao Xing will have a lot of room for maneuver!
If you cause trouble outside in the future, your enemies will come to seek revenge.
He can even run away with his territory!
But when Cao Xing controlled the vines in the ground and approached the furnace and the lord's mansion, he discovered something regrettable.
Even giant vines cannot shake these two buildings in the slightest.
The same goes for the soil below. After the vines were cut, they didn't move at all.
Seeing this scene, Cao Xing thought to himself: "As the core buildings of the territory, the melting pot and the Lord's Mansion cannot be moved, right?"
Obviously, this is the power of the system.
Forcing the furnace and lord's palace to be fixed in one place, making it impossible for survivors to move their territory easily.
He also gave up this idea.
"Forget it, let's just develop here. The terrain around my territory is pretty good anyway!"
Next, Cao Xing continued to become familiar with the control of this huge vine.
One will rearrange the sentry towers and elemental arrow towers, and the other will move the dormant ancient war trees outside the territory.
Cao Xing had a great time.
Until half an hour later, Cao Xing was basically able to command these vines like arms.
At this time, he had another idea.
"down!"
The next moment, the main vein of this huge vine began to grow rapidly downward.
"Boom!"
All the frozen soil, gravel, and even some metal minerals along the way were broken open by it with brute force!
Five hundred meters...
One thousand meters...
One thousand five hundred meters...
This huge vine keeps getting deeper and deeper.
In Cao Xing's sense, the geological layer here seems to have changed, and the soil has become a little moist.
Stretching to about two thousand meters underground, this huge vine seemed to have finally reached its limit.
"Two thousand meters, is it almost the maximum length of vines?"
However, it was enough for him.
You know, Cao Xing's territory is only one thousand meters in diameter.
According to this length, Cao Xing can almost expand his territory to a diameter of three to four thousand meters.
The territory area has increased significantly!
And the most important thing is that this vine will continue to grow over time.
From now on, even if Cao Xing builds a huge city, as long as this vine is there, he can change the layout of his territory at will!
Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction.
"Very good. This way, we can start the second round of expansion of the territory."
"But not yet, everyone is resting now."
"Let's wait until tomorrow."
At this time, Juliette and Neve also approached.
They had just been standing by, watching Cao Xing control the vines, with surprise flashing in their beautiful eyes.
As a botanist, Juliette also knew how magical this plant was and how much it could bring to the territory.
The huge vines can grow so quickly, in addition to various acceleration props, they are also inseparable from the care of the sister flowers.
A peaceful smile also appeared on the faces of the two girls.
Juliette said softly: "Lord, in addition to this vine, the Twilight Vine you asked me to plant last time has also finished growing."
"And according to your instructions, the twilight vine that grew has been moved to the well by us."
After hearing this, Cao Xing looked at his farmland area, and there was a newly dug well next to it.
There was a hazy mist floating at the mouth of the well, still emitting a faint light.
It was as if something magical was glowing in the well.
"Yes, yes, with the Twilight Vine, this well will transform from an ordinary well into a Twilight Fountain."
"According to the system, this spring water also has a purifying effect."
"In this way, the only material left to make holy water is the last kind of Aurora Grass."
Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction, and then praised: "Juliet, Neve, you have worked hard. The development of the territory cannot be separated from your contribution."
Juliette said softly: "We are also very happy to be able to help the lord..."
"Yes, yes! Lord, just leave all kinds of plants to us. Neve and sister are very capable!"
At this moment, a peaceful smile appeared on the two women's faces.
Cao Xing noticed.
The cold moonlight shone down at night, illuminating their already fair skin until it appeared shiny.
Incomparably beautiful.
This also made him couldn't help but watch it for a while longer.
Facing Cao Xing's gaze, Juliette and Neve's cheeks were slightly red, and they held each other's little hands, seeming a little nervous.
At this moment, Cao Xing suddenly took out two things from his backpack.
These are two dresses.
One of the dresses is like a blooming tulip, with delicate colors and exquisite tailoring complementing each other. The pearl decoration on the neckline is like morning dew, exuding a warm luster.
The other dress seems to be woven with moonlight, the elegant colors are like the quiet lake surface, and the lace on the skirt is like dancing butterflies, light and agile.
The eyes of the two women were immediately attracted by these two beautiful clothes.
Juliette immediately exclaimed: "Wow! What a beautiful dress!"
Neve next to her also echoed: "Yes, yes, I have never worn such beautiful clothes!"
The Dryads are a race that lives in the jungle.
For them, the best clothing is the leaves of the sacred tree.
Including when Cao Xing saw these tree spirits for the first time, the clothes they wore were also made of leaves.
But it is a woman's nature to love beauty.
The same goes for these guardians.
So after seeing this beautiful dress, the two sisters couldn't take their eyes away.
Cao Xing smiled and said: "For you, I think these two clothes are very suitable for you."
After hearing this, the two women had surprise smiles on their faces at the same time.
Then, he asked somewhat unconfidently: "Lord, is this really for us?"
"We have never worn such beautiful clothes, will we not be worthy of it..."
But Cao Xing shook his head and said: "No, with your beauty, how could you not be worthy of wearing such clothes?"
Hearing Cao Xing's praise and encouragement, the unconfidence on the two girls' faces disappeared, and they turned slightly red.
Cao Xing continued: "Come on, take it."
They also mustered up the courage at this time and came to Cao Xing.
Neve took the light yellow dress, and Juliette took the silver one.
They stretched out their fair skin and caressed it carefully, some of them couldn't put it down.
Little Neve said happily: "I've seen that beautiful witch sister wear it before. It's so beautiful. I didn't expect that I can wear such beautiful clothes."
"Thank you Lord Lord!"
Cao Xing smiled and said, "As long as you like it."
At this moment, Juliette and Neve looked at each other.
Then they walked over together and hugged Cao Xing's waist.
Cao Xing felt the two soft bodies in his arms, and the faint fragrance penetrated the tip of his nose.
Because the tree spirits have been dealing with plants all year round, their bodies have a strange plant aroma...
The second daughter said with a face full of shame: "This... this is also our way of thanking our family..."
Cao Xing also laughed after hearing this and let them hold him.
He ran his hands through their silky hair.
After a moment, Juliette said softly.
"Lord... we continue to work. The ice-thorn bindweed seeds you brought back last time have not been planted yet..."
"Next time we have time... we will show you how to wear them..."
Juliette said the last sentence very quietly.
But Cao Xing still heard it, and he nodded, "Okay, you go."
After saying that, the two girls reluctantly let go of Cao Xing's waist.
And Cao Xing also left here.
…
…
After leaving the back garden, Cao Xing was in a good mood.
After all, it’s hard not to be happy when you suddenly have such a magical plant!
While walking leisurely in the territory.
At the same time, prepare to open the chat channel and see the chats of the survivors.
After all, there was a system announcement when they went out today.
The Ice Crystal Kingdom's army has arrived and gathered many survivors to participate in the subsequent siege battle.
Cao Xing thought to himself: "I don't know how the battle in Duolun Lake City will go after one day, and whether there will be a fight between the two sides."
"Or are you saying the fight is over?"
And just then.
Cao Xing suddenly saw the gate of the territory open, and a tall creature with a feline head came back covered in dust.
None other than the Black Smoke Shaman: Blot Brimstone.
Cao Xing hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Brote, did you just come back?"
Blot said respectfully: "Yes, respected lord, according to your instructions, I went to explore the ancient battlefield."
"However, the situation is a little different from what we expected."
"no the same?"
"Yes."
Brot nodded and said: "There are indeed traces of an ancient battlefield there, as well as many broken weapons, and occasionally some third- and fourth-level carrion monsters and undead."
"But the level of these monsters is not high, so I dealt with them easily and prepared to explore the center of the ancient battlefield ahead."
"Then I saw a passage leading underground in the central area."
Cao Xing became even more confused, "Underground passage? You mean the real ancient battlefield is underground?"
Blot nodded again.
"Yes, I walked down this passage and found an extremely wide underground space below."
"In addition to the traces of war, there are also a terrifying number of undead there, so vast!"
"There are some undead among them, which even gave me a strong sense of crisis!" Upon hearing this, Cao Xing also frowned.
Brot is now a fourth-level leader, and with his powerful state, even a fifth-level leader cannot pose a threat to him.
And to be able to make him feel a sense of crisis, does that mean that there might be undead of level six or above in that ancient battlefield?
Good guy!
You know, even Duke Palatine only has the strength of a fifth-level commander.
How strong must a sixth-level undead be?
Blot continued: "Later, I was worried that these undead would pose a threat to our territory, so I observed them there for a long time and found that these undead seemed unable to come to the ground for some reason."
"Then I will come back quickly and report the news to the lord."
Cao Xing nodded, "Well done, Brot. Next time you inquire about information, try to consider your own safety."
"Thank you Lord for your concern."
Blot bowed slightly, still with a worried look on his face.
He hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Lord, I think that ancient battlefield is a big safety hazard for us."
"It's so close to our territory."
"And there are a terrifying and powerful undead army down there..."
"Although the undead cannot come out now, if they break out of the ground one day, they may have a huge impact on our territory."
The black smoke shaman's eyes were filled with worry.
And Cao Xing is also thinking seriously about this issue.
It has to be said that his concerns are justified.
Not far from his own territory, there is actually a huge underground ancient battlefield, and it also hides so many undead.
Once the undead rush out, their territory will definitely bear the brunt!
At that time, you will be caught off guard and suddenly face the impact of a massive amount of undead, and the consequences will be disastrous!
This is no worse than those low-level ice nest monsters, but a group of undead with terrifying strength!
This can be seen from the fact that Duke Palatine, who led more than a thousand undead warriors, was able to exert his fighting power across ranks.
The number of the undead army below is definitely far greater than that of Paladin's undead army.
At this moment, Cao Xing couldn't help but feel lucky that he had let Blot go down to investigate.
Cao Xing solemnly said: "I know Blot, this piece of information is very important to us."
"Now, you go back and rest first, I will figure out other things."
After saying that, Cao Xing took out an [Ice Corruption Staff (gold)] from his backpack and handed it over.
The black smoke shaman can naturally feel the powerful magic power contained in the staff given by Cao Xing.
A level 30 golden staff can increase Blot's combat power by at least 20%!
He took it solemnly, "Thank you, respected lord."
After saying that, he quickly left here.
After he left, Cao Xing had a thoughtful look in his eyes.
"I didn't expect that that ancient battlefield would hide such a great danger."
"According to Blot, there may be undead of level six or above below, and there are quite a few of them."
"In my territory, only Sarah, Assam, and Andrew have the strength to deal with sixth-level creatures."
"Plus an Earth Dragon Mecha and a Frost Moose..."
"There are five sixth-level combat powers in total. They will definitely not be able to compete with the monsters in that ancient battlefield."
"And in a short period of time, if I didn't encounter some big events, I shouldn't be able to continue to significantly improve my strength."
"So, we have to think of other ways to deal with those undead."
At this time, an idea flashed in Cao Xing's mind.
He remembered that there was a blueprint for a [Holy Water Formula] in the Haoyue Treasure Box he opened last time in Annuohe Village.
"This kind of holy water seems to be very effective in dealing with the undead!"
"Now that the required materials for the production of Twilight Spring Water have been obtained, all that is needed now is the last Aurora Grass and the advanced alchemy workshop drawings to make this holy water in batches."
"And if there is enough of this holy water, even if there are seventh-level undead in it, I will still be sure to touch it."
After all, the 30% weakening of holy water and the 40% additional damage of light attribute are no joke.
Coupled with Cao Xing's [Eternal Power] bonus, he is almost the nemesis of the undead.
"It seems that the progress of Aurora Grass needs to be put on the agenda as soon as possible."
Thinking of this, Cao Xing decided to go to the [Blacksmith Shop] and [Alchemy Workshop] immediately to take out the things made by Harold and Francesca.
Then go to the market to trade and see if you can collect the two things you need.
So, he started heading straight to the [Blacksmith Shop].
…
…
at the same time.
In a remote corner of the Western Continent.
Two humans wearing yellow expedition uniforms, a khaki helmet on their heads, and carrying a large tool bag on their backs were crawling hard in a passage.
In addition, they also have various tools on their waists, which can be said to be fully armed.
The names above their heads are: Janes Garland and Dennis Reiner.
If there are survivors here, they will definitely recognize them.
These two are currently the most popular explorer couple in the world forum.
The two created a thread and shared videos of their adventures there.
They are smart and decisive.
Not long after the novice protection period ended, he found the local nobles, sold his territory, and obtained the first batch of start-up funds.
Then with this money, they began their adventure career.
In this magical world, the most indispensable thing is all kinds of strange and weird places.
And these places also have some puzzle elements.
This explorer couple took advantage of this and went to these places specifically to find materials.
Explore the cannibal tribe from the very beginning and help them find the guardian of the tribe, a giant orangutan.
Later, they explored the goblin lair and rescued a princess who was about to fall into evil. After bringing them back to the main city, the king personally rewarded them and gave them a generous amount of wealth.
Then lead the army from behind, sneak into the lair of the jungle trolls, and kill these monsters in one fell swoop.
Such as various...
As their videos become more and more exciting, their popularity is also increasing.
Each video can have more than 10 million views!
And now, they are digging a dusty passage again, and they seem to be looking for some kind of material.
Dennis whispered to the camera: "Friends, I am Rena, the video is my wife Garland, we meet again."
"As you can see, we are in an underground passage."
"This place is very difficult to find. We also got the clue from a dead man."
"The dead man was buried deep in a cursed area. My wife and I walked several kilometers and spent several days digging through the ground and found his coffin."
"Ahem, it's too far off topic...but I swear, there are definitely amazing secrets hidden here!"
"We've been digging here for two days and are about to dig through the passage."
"Now, please witness with me the secrets that have been buried here for many years!"
After saying this, he continued to raise the pickaxe in his hand and dig into the wall.
"Ding! Ding ding!"
The knocking sounds continued.
After a while, he finally dug through the frozen soil in front, and a faint green light came from inside.
Behind me, my wife, who was taking pictures using the system's built-in functions, involuntarily moved the camera closer.
"Bang!"
With the wall completely dug through.
A cold, damp breath kept coming out.
This gave the two of them a chill all over their bodies.
Garland behind him looked worried, "Dear, this place gives me a very uncomfortable feeling, why don't we go in?"
But Rena in front said: "Dear Garland, don't worry, I'm here!"
"Don't forget, I am a man with the B-level talent 'Earth Burrower'. If you encounter danger, I can take you underground to escape."
Hearing this, the worry on Jialan's face gradually dissipated.
Because before this, they had indeed relied on Rena's talent to avoid crises time and time again.
Then, the explorer couple couldn't wait to get in.
There was a flash of green light.
When they regained their vision, they suddenly saw a scene that made people feel numb.
The two people's eyes widened, and they even collapsed on the ground because they were so shocked.
After a moment, Dennis exclaimed, "Oh my God! What did I see?"
"Are we breaking into the city of the dead?"
In front of them, a large number of undead creatures were active in an ancient underground city.
Undead bone dragons flying in mid-air, undead war horses galloping underground, undead knights, and massive undead soldiers...
The undead auras on them soared into the sky and gathered into a green ocean!
Every undead here brings a fatal sense of crisis to this couple!
Moreover, those undead people noticed their arrival in an instant!
I don’t know how many pairs of empty eyes looked at me.
The couple only felt their whole bodies trembling, and their bodies were frozen in place as if a restraining spell had been applied to them.
"Rei...Rena...quick...go!"
His wife's reminder brought him back to his senses.
Just as he was about to use his talent to escape, he suddenly saw a black light shooting down from the sea of undead in front of him.
A knight wearing battle armor and exuding black energy walked slowly over.
The surrounding undead retreated when they saw the black knight.
A feeling of oppression came from the depths of my soul.
Leaving the couple with only one thought in their mind.
Worship, surrender...
However, reason tells them that they must leave as soon as possible.
The black knight just glanced at them.
The next moment, the explorer couple felt like they were struck by lightning...
…
…
In addition to this explorer couple, there have been sporadic posts on the World Forum in recent times.
These people come from all over the world, and they all say that they have discovered a large number of undead underground in a certain area...
However, everyone's thoughts were on the Ice Nest, and no one cared about the news at all.
