Chapter 309 The magical egg and the war begin! (6600)
"This, this, this...isn't this bad?" Old Mel asked guiltily.
Cao Xing smiled and said, "What's wrong? Don't you have a bad relationship with Sihua?"
Hearing this, Old Mel's expression froze.
He glanced at his lord guiltily again, as if some secret had been revealed.
And Cao Xing had a faint smile on his lips.
Just when he was in the air, Cao Xing saw that the two people were acting a little unusually.
Speaking of which, Mel Sr. has been single since the death of Elisa's mother.
Sihua, whose original name was Sapphire, was one of the first refugees to be taken in by Cao Xing.
She also came here to escape the war.
According to her, her son and family members all died in the war.
So these two people, who are almost fifty years old, seem to have found their new belongings in this territory...
Cao Xing was not surprised by this kind of thing.
After all, in the future, the size of your territory will become larger and larger.
There will also be more staff members.
As time goes by, these staff members occasionally see each other, and it is normal for them to work together.
Old Mel sighed, "I will obey the Lord's orders in everything..."
Elisa next to her looked at Old Mel with strange eyes, and then at Sihua.
Seems to realize something.
"Father……"
Before she could speak, Cao Xing interrupted: "Let's go and see the group of bare-feathered chickens together."
Then, he took Old Mel and Sihua out.
Elisa puffed her lips, but she could only follow them and walked over together.
They came to the door of the [Intermediate Cowshed] where the bare-feathered chickens were kept.
The door was locked tightly at this time.
Old Mel quickly stepped forward and said: "Lord, these feathered chickens are quite violent. After the Assam knights locked them in yesterday, they have been making trouble inside and trying to escape."
"So until now, I haven't fed them food. I plan to starve them for a while to consume their energy."
"When you go in later, be careful to avoid being scratched by these bare-feathered chickens."
Old Mel kept urging me.
Cao Xing nodded, "Okay, I understand."
After saying that, he pushed open the door of the bullpen.
"Crash!"
As soon as he entered, more than a dozen radiant light-feathered chickens swooped over.
"Giggle~"
"Kekeke~"
A strong wind came in front of me.
As second-level magical creatures, these light-feathered chickens have relatively powerful attack power.
Old Mel suddenly panicked and said: "Oops, they want to escape!"
After hearing this, Elisa immediately grasped the long bow behind her back.
Ever since she became a combatant, she has developed the habit of never leaving her hand with a weapon.
Before Elisa could take action.
Cao Xing had already raised his staff and instantly released an [Ice Wall], blocking the door.
At the same time, a powerful ice aura suddenly erupted from his body!
"Wow!"
The dozen bare-feathered chickens seemed to have been severely injured, and each one quickly fell from the sky like a kite with broken wings.
Old Mel, on the other hand, quickly closed the door to the bullpen.
"Clang!"
The door was completely closed, and these bare-feathered chickens lost all hope of escaping.
In the bullpen, the group of bare-feathered chickens seemed to feel very uneasy because of Cao Xing's arrival.
The aura on his body was fatally threatening to them.
For a time, a large number of bare-feathered chickens were flying around in the entire cowshed.
"Crash!"
"Giggle~giggle~"
The entire chicken flock was in a restless state, constantly hitting the wooden boards of the cowshed.
Old Mel looked a little anxious.
But when Cao Xing saw this, he was not surprised.
After all, he had captured these bare-feathered chickens by force, and he had not signed a pet contract, so it was normal for him to be afraid of himself.
So, Cao Xing took out the [Glowing Branch (Gold)] directly from his backpack.
In an instant, a strong holy light emitted, filling the entire bullpen in an instant.
The light-feathered chickens that were running around felt the breath of the holy light and gradually calmed down.
They fell slowly and stood on the wooden planks of the cattle pen.
All the light-feathered chickens raised their heads with intoxicated expressions on their faces, as if they were enjoying the bath of holy light.
Old Mel looked surprised, "It's incredible, these bare-feathered chickens actually became quiet all of a sudden!"
Elisa and Sihua next to them were also very surprised.
Little Elisa put down her weapon and asked curiously: "Wow! How did you do it, Lord Lord?"
Cao Xing smiled and said: "It's nothing, but the goblin said last time that the light-feathered chicken likes places with abundant holy light, so I found a branch here."
These little knowledge about breeding still need to be told to Lao Meier and Sihua.
After all, the bare-feathered chickens at the back still rely on them to take care of the chickens.
After everyone listened, a look of surprise appeared on their faces.
Cao Xing, on the other hand, looked at the green branch in his hand with a look of joy on his face.
This thing is quite convenient. When the power of the Holy Light is not enough, just ask Isabel to come over and replenish it.
Equivalent to a Holy Light power bank.
I'll see if I can get another one if I get a chance in the future.
Thinking of this, Cao Xing placed the branch on a beam at the top of the cowshed.
In this way, these light-feathered chickens can enjoy the bath of holy light 24 hours a day.
At this time, little Elisa didn't know when she got into the chickens.
"Kekeke~"
The two bare-feathered chickens flew up in fright at her arrival.
Then, a little head with chicken feathers in its hair and delicate and cute features came out.
Elisa said in surprise: "Lord, what do you think I found?"
Cao Xing looked a little confused, "What?"
"Dang Dang Dang! It's an egg!"
Then she stretched out her hands and spread her palms.
On top were two eggs as white as gems.
The eggshell was as smooth as new, almost as if it had been polished and spotless.
Moreover, through the eggshell, you can see that there is a faint power of holy light inside!
Cao Xing took it.
[Obtain: Light-feathered chicken eggs (blue)*2]
I looked at the properties.
[Light-feathered chicken eggs (blue)]
[Effect 1: Can be eaten, can increase satiety by 10 points, and increase physical fitness by 5 points (effective up to 3 times)]
[Effect 2: Eggs contain the power of purification, which can dispel some negative status or curse effects after consumption]
…
Seeing the properties of this egg, the confusion in Cao Xing's eyes gradually turned into surprise.
"Good guy, one egg can increase your physique by 5 points, and it can be effective 3 times!"
"The most important thing is that this thing can also dispel negative status and curse effects!"
"This is not an egg, this is a golden egg!!"
"This old boy Hilton will definitely like it, haha!"
Obviously, the value of such an egg is amazing!
No wonder Goblin Locke said that the income from raising bare-feathered chickens is no worse than raising cloud yaks.
Cao Xing seemed to see a large amount of wealth coming towards him.
"Elisa, look at how many eggs there are in the cowshed and pick them all up for me."
"As you command, Lord Lord!"
Little Elisa ducked down, like a little raccoon, picked up the eggs one by one, and then held them in her arms.
After a while, she ran over happily and said: "Lord, there are 13 eggs in total, and I picked them all up!"
Cao Xing also thought for a moment.
This group of bare-feathered chickens laid 13 eggs after just one night.
The egg production rate is still very high.
Later, under the 24-hour bath of holy light, the speed of egg production will increase again.
Hatch another batch of chicks, and when they grow up, Cao Xing can earn a lot of profits every day!
"Well done, Elisa."
Cao Xing took away ten eggs and put the remaining eggs back.
Hopefully chicks will hatch.
"Mr. Mel, Sihua, you go ahead and get busy."
The two nodded slightly.
"Elisa, come with me."
"Oh! Okay Lord!"
The little girl was holding a long bow and jumping up and down behind Cao Xing.
In the bullpen, Old Mel and Sihua looked at each other.
They all lowered their heads in embarrassment.
…
…
Outside the territory, Elisa followed him.
Cao Xing asked: "Tell me, how much milk do you want?"
After hearing this, Elisa said a little coyly: "Hey, hey, no need, Lord, you have already given me a lot of rewards..."
In the mountains, Cao Xing gave her weapons, soul, and heart of power.
It can be said that this little girl has been greatly improved.
She naturally knows how valuable these things are, and the other citizens are envious of them.
Cao Xing smiled and said: "I promised you, and I will naturally not break my promise."
"Besides, this little thing is nothing."
After hearing this, Elisa hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Then... just give me two buckets of milk!"
"I have one bucket, and Sister Chuchu has one bucket."
Cao Xing laughed. As expected, this little girl was quite measured.
One bucket only contains 10 liters of milk, which is not much at all compared to her contribution.
"No problem, go to the kitchen and let Dahua take you there. Just say it's my permission."
The little girl was immediately overjoyed.
She straightened her legs and made a ninety-degree bow, "Thank you, handsome lord!"
After saying that, he jumped away and went to find Tong Chuchu.
She seemed to be so lively all the time, as if nothing could make her unhappy.
Staying with this little girl, Cao Xing felt that his mood had improved a lot.
A smile appeared on Cao Xing's lips, and he looked at his backpack again.
There were vast quantities of precious cloth and various metals.
"Now, if all these resources are distributed, the harvest in that camp will be almost completely digested."
Cao Xing went straight to the [Blacksmith Shop].
However, what is different from the past is that there are actually two figures inside.
In addition to Harold who was forging, beside him, the half-giant Putana was also helping to carry some materials.
After the two saw Cao Xing.
He immediately put down what he was doing and saluted respectfully: "Dear Lord, I wish you good health."
"Harold, why did your wife come to help?" Cao Xing was a little confused.
Harold said sheepishly: "That's it. Since no Ice Nest has arrived in the past two days, there has been no battle."
"My wife is naturally restless and doesn't want to stay in the room all the time, so I asked her to come to the blacksmith shop to help me."
Cao Xing nodded.
"Putana is pregnant, so she still needs to pay attention to her rest."
"You can use these ten eggs to replenish her health."
After hearing this, the two of them looked at the basket in Cao Xing's hand and the ten glowing eggs.
There is a huge difference in appearance between bare-feathered chicken eggs and ordinary eggs.
They even felt a purifying force in it.
As mercenaries who travel around the world, they naturally understand the extraordinary nature of these eggs. For a while, neither of them took it.
Harold said sheepishly: "This... I still don't need it, Lord. My wife is in good health and doesn't need any supplements."
"This kind of egg is very precious at first glance. You'd better keep it for yourself."
Including Putana next to her also nodded.
Cao Xing understood their thoughts and smiled.
"Don't worry, I caught a lot of chickens yesterday. From now on, our territory will produce a lot of eggs every day."
"Take it first."
The couple looked at each other and took it over without any further shirk.
However, there was a look of emotion in his eyes.
The two of them bowed at the same time and bowed solemnly: "Thank you, Lord, for your care. You have always taken good care of us!"
"We will always remember your kindness!"
[Because of your consideration for your subordinates, territory member: Harold Bingshan’s loyalty has been increased, current loyalty: 100]
(Loyalty has reached full value, and now the other party will execute your orders unconditionally)
[Because you are considerate of your subordinates, territory member: Putana’s loyalty has been improved, current loyalty: 95]
…
Seeing the system prompt, Cao Xing remained silent, but a smile appeared in his heart.
He waved his hand, "Nothing Harold."
"Now, let's talk business."
Harold's expression suddenly became serious.
Cao Xing continued: "Now I want to make a pair of gloves-like weapons. Do you have the corresponding drawings that can be made directly?"
The gloves are naturally prepared for Victoria. Last time she went out, she had already demonstrated her strong combat effectiveness and team support capabilities.
Such a powerful leader naturally needs to be well cultivated.
Hearing this question, Harold looked thoughtful in his eyes.
"There are even fewer strong men fighting with gloves than with tridents."
"And it's no better than a cold weapon. To make some powerful gloves, you need to use the leather of wild beasts, and then use special processes to add a small amount of mithril."
"It's then sewn together to make a complete pair of gloves."
"If the lord has a powerful beast pelt, I can try to make it."
Cao Xing suddenly nodded.
Want the pelt of a mighty beast?
Speaking of which, he really didn't have this kind of material on hand.
So, Cao Xing nodded and said: "Okay, I understand. I will come back to you when I get the fur later."
Harold nodded.
After bidding farewell to the couple, Cao Xing left the blacksmith shop.
Then, he went straight to the sewing shop and took out all the various pieces of cloth he had found in the camp.
The two mature and charming women looked at the various rolls of cloth that suddenly appeared, with a look of surprise in their beautiful eyes.
"Ah, there's so much fabric!"
Xia Yanni was surprised and said: "There are so many silks and gauze fabrics, they must be very valuable. You are really capable..."
Elena next to her also chuckled and said, "Yes, our Lord is so capable."
"Otherwise we wouldn't have been asked to beg for mercy again and again~"
Elena is still so unrestrained.
And the tone was extremely provocative.
Xia Yanni has a more traditional mindset.
Although he was already very familiar with Cao Xing, he was still a little shy and embarrassed to answer Elena's words.
Cao Xing said: "Elena, Yanni, these fabrics and furs will trouble you."
"Make them all into clothes. Those tulle fabrics can be made into a few sets of dresses."
Even if this batch of cloth rolls is sold as raw materials to those merchants, they can get a lot of profits.
However, the finished clothes are worth more than selling the fabric.
Cao Xing is now short of money, food, supplies, and almost everything.
So try to maximize your profits.
The two mature women looked at each other.
With a charming smile on her face, Elena said softly: "No problem, Lord, just leave it to us. We can complete it in two days~"
"Then now, we have to start working. Lord, please go and do your work first."
These two young women are very sensible.
They knew when to pester Cao Xing and when not to, and were very measured.
Cao Xing also smiled, then kissed each of them on the face and left the sewing shop.
After doing this, the whole morning passed.
And Cao Xing naturally still has things to do.
"According to the information revealed by the survivors in the chat channel yesterday, the king's army will officially attack Lake Duolun City this afternoon."
"I always feel that the Church of Light is not that simple."
"It's just a good opportunity to see their strength."
As for how to look at it, it's very simple.
There are many live broadcast posts on the world forum now.
It was all initiated by the survivors who rushed to the vicinity of Duolun Lake City.
This battle has also received widespread attention from survivors around the world.
Therefore, in each live broadcast room, there are at least one million people online at the same time.
Cao Xing also returned to the lord's cabin, then hugged Liu Muxue and watched the live broadcast together.
…
…
Near Duolun Lake City at this time.
More than 20,000 kingdom soldiers, plus more than 2,000 knights, have all been assembled.
Next to it, there were a large number of rangers, mercenaries, survivors and their subordinates.
The number of people is tens of thousands.
It’s quite a force.
At this moment, the mighty Kingdom army automatically separated a road.
A knight riding a black lion and wearing armor quickly shuttled through the army and came to the center.
Then he stopped in front of a black chariot.
The knight reported: "General! All soldiers have been assembled and can attack at any time!"
"But before that, can we let the group of rangers and survivors attack first and help us explore the path?"
There was no response from the chariot, and after a moment there was a burst of chuckles.
"Captain Kane, I know what you are thinking."
"But you also have to know that although these people are weak, they are not fools."
"These people will not rush forward without knowing the strength of the cultists inside."
The knight outside was startled, "What does the general mean?"
The voice inside replied: "Don't worry about them. For these people, just treat them as dispensable existences."
"Next, as long as there is a fight, they will naturally rush forward when they see that the advantage is on our side."
Hearing this, the knight captain suddenly looked stern.
"The general's control over people's hearts is truly exquisite."
And the general said again: "There is no control over people's hearts, it's just interests."
"Human beings all live to chase something that is not vague..."
After a pause, the general inside continued: "Okay, give me the order to activate the Neros artillery and the troll trebuchet, and prepare to break through the barrier of Lake Duolun City."
"Then, attack with all hands!"
The knight captain said respectfully: "Yes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly shuttled through the army.
Meanwhile, in the army, a bugler blew the bugle call for attack.
"Woo——"
A heavy horn sounded.
The survivors in the distance looked shocked, and seemed to understand the meaning of the horn.
They were discussing excitedly in the chat channel.
"Brothers, the war is about to begin. This is the first large-scale war we have witnessed since coming to this world. It is really exciting!"
"+1 upstairs, I have opened a live broadcast thread on the World Forum, and there are already a lot of people online!"
"I also started a live broadcast, damn! The number of people watching online at the same time has exceeded one million! Damn it, it's a pity that the World Forum can't accept gifts, otherwise I will make a lot of money this time!"
"..."
This battle can be said to have attracted the attention of countless survivors around the world.
now.
As the kingdom's armies move.
Those giant siege crossbows and troll trebuchets all launched terrifying attacks!
"Boom! Boom!"
Huge crossbow arrows, boulders weighing thousands of kilograms, and cannonballs all roared out!
The sound of breaking through the air kept coming.
"Huh-huh-"
These crossbow arrows and cannonballs landed on the outer barrier, causing a violent explosion.
"Boom!!!"
The terrifying power caused the surrounding snow to fly violently!
However, this is just the beginning.
The next moment, more attacks were launched one after another.
Violent explosions continued to sound, causing the layer of enchantment to continue to vibrate.
Even though they were two or three thousand meters away, the survivors watching the battle still felt their ears roaring!
exclaimed the survivor who was watching the live broadcast.
"Holy crap! Is this a war in a magical world? Although it's very primitive, it's also pretty cool!"
"It's so powerful! The explosion of the shells thrown by those trebuchets is so powerful!"
"I remember that you can exchange this thing for 2000 honor points. If you can put one into the territory, you will be invincible!"
"The Destroyer Siege Crossbow is powerful enough. It only costs 1,000 honor points. If you work hard, there is still hope of exchange."
I had only seen these redemption items in the Honor Store before, but I didn’t know their specific properties.
Now that I have seen it with my own eyes, its terrifying power directly impressed everyone on the field, making them even more eager to get another one.
"But speaking of it, the barrier in Duolun Lake City is also very hard, and it can actually hold up for such a long time."
"Yeah, I feel like if this continues, the army will have to put in a lot of effort if they want to break through the barrier."
And just then.
Among the troops, the two huge artillery pieces, which were all blood red and had a muzzle diameter of more than one meter, suddenly activated.
"boom!!!"
Everyone felt that even the ground one or two kilometers around them shook!
Then, two cannonballs with a diameter of more than sixty or seventy centimeters suddenly blasted out.
The two shells carried thick smoke in the air, like a long smoke dragon.
It landed on the barrier and immediately caused a shocking explosion!
"Boom!!!"
Two flames soared into the sky, reaching a height of more than a hundred meters.
The terrifying power directly shook away all the snow near Duolun Lake City.
It even made the ears of the crowd watching the battle from a distance feel buzzing.
The seemingly indestructible golden barrier had a large number of cracks on its surface.
"Holy crap! Is this the Neros Cannon? The one that can be exchanged for 10,000 honor points in the honor store?"
"Isn't this power too terrifying? I'm afraid even those knights will die in large pieces when faced with this cannon!"
"+1, with this one shot, I feel like my territory will be gone."
"So perverted!"
The king's army finally showed their strength at this moment.
at the same time!
Those two huge artillery launched a second round of attacks!
"Boom! Boom!"
Shocking explosions continued to sound.
Accompanied by soaring fire.
And more cracks continued to appear on the golden barrier.
However, despite repeated bombardments by the Ice Crystal Kingdom's army, there seemed to be no sign of anyone coming out.
Looking at it, the barrier is about to be breached.
And just then.
Everyone suddenly felt a chill coming from above their heads.
