The next day...
Cao Xing woke up from his sleep.
At this time, he found that the head of the bed was empty, but there was still a familiar body scent on the pillow.
When I looked up, I saw a pretty figure squatting in front of the stove, preparing breakfast for today.
This scene made Cao Xing feel a little unreal.
After two days in this world, everything was different from what he had imagined.
Liu Muxue seemed to notice that Cao Xing had woken up, with a shy look on her face.
"Axing...you're awake..."
"Wait a moment, breakfast will be ready soon."
Liu Muxue, who was experiencing sex for the first time, had a touching blush on her face, and a hint of immaturity.
She seemed to get into the role quickly.
Then, Liu Muxue came to Cao Xing with a bowl of fragrant broth.
Cao Xing took a bite and praised: "It tastes good, Mu Xue."
"Really? Hehe..."
Liu Muxue smiled foolishly and said, "Then drink more."
Cao Xing nodded.
Watching Cao Xing drink it all in front of her, Liu Muxue had a satisfied smile on her face.
After a moment, she suddenly felt sad again.
"Ah Xing... the temperature dropped last night and it seems that many people froze to death..."
Cao Xing thought for a moment and clicked on the [Regional Channel].
[174 Regional Channel]
[Online users: 37104/40173]
Compared to yesterday, more than a thousand people died.
Although the mortality rate is much lower.
But if people continue to die at this rate, it won't be long before there are only a few of us left.
Liu Muxue said with some concern: "Axing, do you think we will survive?"
Hearing this, Cao Xing nodded solemnly and said, "Yes, we will live together."
"Not only will we survive, but we will also be able to live well in this world."
After hearing this, Liu Muxue also nodded and said, "Yeah!"
After finishing breakfast, Cao Xing stood up full of energy.
Compared to yesterday, Cao Xing has one more goal.
That is, to live in this world with Liu Muxue.
Push open the door of the lord's hut.
The eight polar men and Ilena were already waiting at the door.
As for Assam, he got up early in the morning and went to carry out the task assigned by Cao Xing to detect the surrounding environment.
Seeing Cao Xing coming out, the group of polar people said in unison: "My Lord, are you well?"
"Good morning, Second Lord."
Liu Muxue stood beside Cao Xing, waiting for Cao Xing to give orders.
Cao Xing nodded and said, "Today, your task is mainly to build territory buildings."
"Da Zhuang and Er Zhuang, upgrade the [campfire] with all your strength."
"Three strong, four strong, hurry up and build the [sewing shop]."
"From level five to level eight, your mission is to build a [Blacksmith Shop] and more [Small Shelters]."
"Did you understand everything?"
The eight polar men immediately straightened their bodies, then nodded and said, "I understand, Lord!"
Then, they started knocking "dang, dang" according to Cao Xing's instructions.
At this time, Cao Xing faced a problem.
That is, the territory is short of manpower.
He has many buildings to build, including [Blacksmith Shop], [Primary Element Arrow Tower], [Sewing Shop], etc...
But there are only eight polar people, and they are simply too busy to handle everything.
Cao Xing sighed and said, "I have so many resources in my hands now. It would be a pity if I can't convert them into combat power."
"Let's think of a way to recruit some civilians later."
Cao Xing shook his head and continued to check the two new skill books and equipment he had acquired yesterday.
[Ice Cone: Consumes a certain amount of spirit, condenses 1 to 3 ice cones, causes magic damage equal to spirit*0.8 to the enemy, has a 30% chance of causing a 1-second freezing effect, cooldown time is 30 seconds]
[Aurora Blessing: Concentrate the power of the aurora and attach it to the weapon. When attacking in close combat, it will cause additional spirit*0.8 light attribute damage to the enemy. The effect lasts for 60 seconds and the cooldown time is 120 seconds.]
These two skills, one is Cao Xing's attack skill, and the other is Liu Muxue's blessing skill.
The effects are very good.
Especially the skill [Aurora Blessing]. Once Liu Muxue's attributes improve, it can greatly increase the output of the territory's troops.
He began to continue checking.
[Black Iron Plate Armor (Green)]
[Quality: Excellent]
[Armor: 13~15]
[Additional effect ①: Constitution +5]
[Additional special effect ②: Primary shock absorption (when attacking, reduce the opponent's strength by 20 points and cause knockback)]
…
"Yes, this plate armor has very strong attributes, it's perfect for Mu Xue!"
As an Aurora Knight, fighting monsters is naturally the most important thing.
With the 'primary shock absorption' special effect, Liu Muxue can deal with stronger monsters without being knocked away.
Then, there is the last drawing.
[Soldier's Standard Long Sword Blueprint (Green): After learning, you can use the materials in the blacksmith shop to forge weapons. ]
[Required for crafting: Blacksmith Shop Level 1, Iron*20, Wood*2...]
Cao Xing pondered, "With the blueprints, we can forge weapons in batches and build an armed corps of our own."
"However, the legion requires a large number of troops. We also need to build barracks and train them using training scrolls."
"And I only have eight polar men at my disposal, and I still need them to work. I definitely cannot train them into combat troops."
"So let's put this matter aside for now."
After checking these, Cao Xing felt a little bored.
It was around noon.
Cao Xing noticed that a figure appeared in the snow in the distance and was heading towards his camp.
It was Assam riding the Frostwolf.
What made Cao Xing feel strange was that behind him, there were three thin humans, who seemed to be women.
Cao Xing walked over immediately.
"Assam, who are these people?"
Asam jumped off the Frostwolf's back and said respectfully, "My Lord, these people are refugees who escaped from Bingfeng City."
"Ice Peak City?"
Assam nodded and said, "Yes, my lord. That is a town thousands of kilometers away from us, but it was captured by the army of the White Walkers."
"These people finally escaped from Bingfeng City, and encountered snow hunters on the way. After I rescued them, they are now homeless."
Cao Xing was thoughtful, it turned out that he was a native of this world.
Yes, in addition to the humans on Blue Star, there are also many indigenous races in this world.
In addition to the polar people who live underground all year round, there are also humans living on the surface, the Asura who believe in machinery and gunpowder, the Ice Giants who worship war and power, and so on...
Assam seemed to be moved by sympathy. He suggested, "My Lord, our territory needs more manpower."
"These three refugees can help us build our territory better."
Next to them, three human women had expectant looks in their eyes.
They also seemed to know that Cao Xing was the person in charge of this territory.
So the three refugees knelt down and said respectfully, "Lord, please take us in when we are homeless."
"We're willing to give you everything."
Cao Xing was stunned, with a strange expression on his face.
Even Liu Muxue who was standing by looked at Cao Xing with some anticipation, as if she really wanted Cao Xing to accept these three refugees.
Assam was right, he did need more manpower now.
So Cao Xing asked, "Can you cook?"
The three refugees looked at each other and nodded quickly, "Yes! We will!"
Cao Xing nodded, "Okay, the task of cooking will be left to you from now on."
"In your spare time, you also need to help other polar people collect resources and build territories. Is there any problem?"
"No, your Excellency."
Cao Xing: "Very good, then you are welcome to join us."
Cao Xing initiated a recruitment application to them.
[Recruitment successful: Jasmine, Tulip, and Sapphire have joined your territory. The population of the territory increased by 3.]
