Chereads / Eternal Ember: Rise from the Ice Age / Chapter 24 - Chapter 24: Recruiting Ice Druids

Chapter 24 - Chapter 24: Recruiting Ice Druids

When he saw their names, Cao Xing's mouth twitched again.

They are all names of flowers, and they sound very nice.

But Cao Xing felt that these names were too elegant and did not suit his style.

So he pointed at one of the women and said, "From today on, you are called Dahua."

"And her name is Erhua, Sanhua."

The three human women knelt down again and said respectfully, "Thank you for the name, merciful Lord."

[You are a subject: Dahua was named successfully, and the loyalty has been improved. The current loyalty is 75]

[You are a subject: Second flower naming is successful, loyalty has been increased, current loyalty is 73]

Cao Xing took a look at their attributes.

[Citizens: Dahua]

[Level: Level 1]

[Attributes: Strength 3, Agility 2, Spirit 3, Constitution 3]

[Talent: None]

[Loyalty: 75]

[Hunger: 41]

[Leader: Erhua]

[Level: Level 1]

[Attributes: Strength 3, Agility 3, Spirit 2, Constitution 2]

[Talent: None]

[Loyalty: 73]

[Hunger: 37]

The loyalty of these three people is quite high, but their hunger is a bit low.

It can be seen that they haven't eaten for a long time.

So Cao Xing said, "Go make a fire and cook something for yourself. There is no canteen built yet, and the stove is in the lord's hut."

After hearing this, the three of them nodded respectfully.

"Yes, my lord."

After they left, Cao Xing continued to think by the campfire.

These newly recruited populations need to have [small shelters] built for them to rest at night.

Then, a special canteen should be built for the people to eat.

However, whether it is building or upgrading buildings, it takes a lot of time.

Cao Xing looked at the eight busy polar people and sighed, "There are still not enough people..."

"If we have more people, we can divide the work and cooperate with each other, greatly speeding up the development efficiency of the territory."

"Is there any way for me to recruit some people?"

Cao Xing couldn't help but start thinking back to his previous experience of playing games on a tablet.

Above,

game characters also face the problem of insufficient manpower.

However, there are several ways to solve this problem in the game.

First, when your territory is upgraded to a certain level and has a certain prestige in the surrounding area, some tribal residents or refugees living nearby will voluntarily come to you for surrender.

The second is to send out his troops and roam around like Assam, with a chance of bringing back some men from the wild.

The third method is to go to the cities or town taverns in this world and recruit some NPCs with special abilities by paying a certain amount of money.

The fourth is to directly launch a war to conquer the nearby tribal residents and force them to surrender.

In short, there are many methods, not limited to the above ones.

But obviously, these methods are not applicable to Cao Xing at present.

At this moment, the three new subjects brought a piece of news to Cao Xing after they had their fill.

After hearing the news, Cao Xing's expression suddenly brightened up.

He looked at Dahua and asked, "You mean you escaped from a camp of hunters?"

"There are still many humans imprisoned in that camp?"

Dahua nodded and said, "Yes, Lord, those hunters are very cruel and have absolutely no humanity!"

"Many of our companions have suffered at their hands."

"If possible, I hope the Lord can lend a helping hand and rescue them!"

Having said that, Dahua knelt directly on the ground, her tone full of pleading.

Cao Xing is most short of manpower now.

After hearing this information, Cao Xing almost subconsciously wanted to take action.

But he quickly suppressed his excitement and helped Dahua up.

"Do you know how many hunters there are and what their strength is?"

Dahua lives in ice and snow all year round, and his cold white Western face seems to be recalling something.

Then, she said respectfully, "My Lord, the group of hunters is about 20 to 30 people."

"Most of the hunters there have a similar aura to that of the Lord."

Cao Xing pondered for a moment, then nodded.

He is now a level 3 frost mage, which means that the strength of those hunters is around level 3 to 5.

Dahua finished speaking and added, "In addition to those ordinary hunters, they also have two team leaders who are slightly stronger than this lady from the snake tribe."

"In addition, there is another strongest captain, whose Frostwolf aura is similar to that of Mr. Assam."

It can be seen that Dahua is very smart and has strong language expression ability.

Through her description, Cao Xing already knew the strength of that group of hunters.

There is one hunter at level 10, two hunters above level 5, and more than twenty hunters below level 5.

If Cao Xing only relied on his previous strength, he might not be able to deal with them.

However, now Assam has advanced to a second-level creature, and Cao Xing also has an "Ice Druid" recruitment scroll in his hand, so dealing with these hunters is not a problem at all.

Moreover, those hunters are said to have hidden some treasures...

It was obvious that Cao Xing was moved.

Assam also saw what Cao Xing was thinking.

"My Lord, the location that Dahua mentioned is about seven kilometers away from the camp."

"At our speed, it will take about an hour and a half to arrive."

Cao Xing nodded.

The speed of moving forward in the snow is not fast, and one and a half hours is still within an acceptable range. At least we can get back before dark.

Liu Muxue also stood aside at this time and said softly: "Axing, I will go with you too."

Cao Xing nodded, "Okay."

After saying that, Cao Xing gave her both the [Black Iron Plate Armor (Green)] and the [Aurora Blessing Skill Book].

Looking at the equipment and skill book in his hand.

Liu Muxue looked at Cao Xing with gratitude again.

She certainly knew the importance of these equipment and skill books at the current stage.

Liu Muxue didn't say much, but silently clicked on the skill book to learn, and then put on the armor.

Cao Xing saw it.

Liu Muxue is now wearing black armor on her upper body, while her long legs are bare in the lower body, and she is wearing a thick wolfskin coat on the outside.

This outfit has a rather interesting style.

Cao Xing himself clicked to learn [Ice Cone], and then took out the [Icefield Druid] recruitment scroll.

The system prompt appears.

[Do you want to consume the Icefield Druid Recruitment Scroll to recruit a druid with level 15 elite strength? ]

[Icefield Druid occupies: 3 population]

Cao Xing directly clicked 'Yes'.

at the same time.

In front of Cao Xing, a hexagram formation appeared with a diameter of five meters, which was even larger than the previous one.

Bursts of strong light burst out from the hexagram formation.

Then, a powerful and ancient aura appeared.

Through the light curtain, Cao Xing could see a humanoid creature that was two meters and five meters tall and had a strong body.

It just stood there motionless, giving people a terrifying feeling of pressure!

After the light curtain dissipated, everyone finally saw each other's full appearance.

It was a creature covered with snow-white mane, with sharp bear claws and thick limbs, but it looked like a human.

His hairy face revealed a pious look.

Then, he placed his right hand on his chest, bowed slightly and said, "The power of nature will guide me forward."

"Guardian Andrew, reporting to you."
