Chapter 100: Forcefully Killing the Snow Demon!

Chapter 100: Forcefully Killing the Snow Demon!

"Bang!"

After the sound of a gunshot, the bullet instantly streaked across.

[-541]

[-214]

[-144]

[-135]

[-67]

This wave of concentrated fire directly took away 1,100 HP from the Snow Demon.

"Roar!!!"

That Snow Demon let out an angry roar, its HP having already dropped below 30%.

Before it could make its next move,

Cao Xing gave the order, "Kantor, use a skill to control it!"

The Centaur Kantor at the side directly threw the blunt weapon in his hand.

Bang!

[-109]

The damage wasn't high, but it caused the Snow Demon to fall into a stunned state!

Cao Xing was instantly overjoyed; this wave was secure!

"Kill it instantly!"

As the words fell, everyone started the second round of concentrated fire.

And Cao Xing also fired his second shot.

This wave of concentrated fire could definitely kill the Snow Demon on the spot!

Just at this moment,

that Snow Demon, under the stunned state, actually let out a strange roar.

"Woo!!"

The next moment, its body directly melted, forcibly breaking free from the stunned state, and then it quickly disappeared into the snowfield.

Bang!

Boom!

Everyone's attacks fell into empty space, splashing up a ground full of snowflakes.

And that Snow Demon had actually disappeared out of thin air.

"Ran away?"

Cao Xing's face was filled with disbelief.

"Damn it, this is simply too outrageous! It actually managed to forcibly shake off the stun state!"

Cao Xing knew that this was the effect of the Snow Demon's skill [Snow Wandering God], which was truly too overpowered.

Just at this moment, Cao Xing noticed that a green number of +325 suddenly appeared in the snowfield in the distance.

He instantly realized that that was the Snow Demon.

A trace of hopeful expression reappeared on Cao Xing's face.

"There it is!"

At this moment, all the recruited creatures reacted, and various ranged attacks slammed towards it.

However, under the Snow Demon's [Snow Wandering God] state, it didn't cause any damage.

Watching as the Snow Demon was about to escape,

a trace of helplessness appeared on Cao Xing's face.

There was no other way; he had truly tried his best.

This Snow Demon was too hard to kill, no wonder Assam said that very few people could slay a Snow Demon.

Moreover, after this time, this Snow Demon knew Cao Xing's methods, and trying to deal with it next time would be even more troublesome.

Just at this moment, Sarah in the darkness suddenly appeared.

She snapped her fingers.

"Snap!"

On the snowfield a hundred meters away, a burst of shattering sound suddenly appeared.

Bang!

Not only that, but Cao Xing also saw a large damage number floating up.

[-4848]

A system prompt appeared.

[Your territory member: Sarah Blade Dance killed Snow Demon Lv15, Tier 2 boss-grade creature, gained 1,000 EXP]

[Combat personnel gained EXP: 500]

Not only Cao Xing, but everyone present widened their eyes.

"Holy crap!!!"

Cao Xing was immensely shocked, and he also understood that this was the effect caused by Sarah's [Shadow Bloom] skill.

Every attack left a layer of shadow mark, which could then be detonated instantly!

This explosion directly blew up the Snow Demon to death on the spot.

Cao Xing was overjoyed, and he gave Sarah a thumbs up, "Sarah, you're amazing!"

Receiving Cao Xing's praise, Sarah's thin lips pressed into a smile, and then she gently nodded.

And Cao Xing directly led the people to the side of the Snow Demon's corpse outside.

After the Snow Demon died, it directly shattered into a ground full of ice shards.

And in this pile of ice shards, Cao Xing saw a crimson heart, as well as some other materials.

[Obtained Snow Demon Heart * 1]

[Obtained Snow Demon Tongue * 1]

[Obtained Corrupted Soul * 1]

[Obtained Ancient Brass Coin * 2]

[Obtained Intermediate Elemental Crystal * 5]

…

Not bad, it dropped quite a few things.

Cao Xing glanced at the attributes of these new materials.

[Snow Demon Heart]

[Effect 1: Can be consumed, increasing Max HP by 500 points, HP recovery speed +5% (can take effect at most once)]

[Effect 2: Can be provided to magical plants to absorb the vitality contained within, accelerating their growth cycle.]

(A still-beating Snow Demon Heart containing strong vitality.)

…

Looking at the beating heart in his hand, Cao Xing couldn't help but complain: "Can this thing be eaten?"

He couldn't overcome it for a moment, so he put the [Snow Demon Heart] into his backpack and checked the second item.

[Snow Demon Tongue: A tongue that has pierced and tasted the hearts of numerous living beings, carrying an extremely strong bloody stench.]

[Effect: Can be made into bait to attract some special entities.]

(It is said that among the nobles of the empire, the Snow Demon Tongue is an extremely rare ingredient, and many royals eagerly desire to taste such a delicacy.)

…

Cao Xing's mouth twitched, "Damn it, these nobles really eat in fancy ways; they even eat this kind of stuff."

With a face full of speechlessness, he checked the next item.

[Corrupted Soul: The soul of a guardian from some ancient kingdom, now tainted by the evil aura of some mysterious entity, corrupted into a filthy Snow Demon.]

(If you can find a Holy Altar to purify the Corrupted Soul, you will reap the friendship and special gift of that ancient kingdom.)

…

[Ancient Brass Coin: An extremely ancient coin no longer circulated on the continent, inscribed with spatial magic.]

(After gathering 100 Ancient Brass Coins, they can be exchanged for 1 Ancient Treasure Chest, from which ancient weapons, crafting blueprints, or other items that have already gone extinct can be unboxed.)

…

The first three items were all body parts of the Snow Demon, so Cao Xing directly put them into his backpack.

As for the last Ancient Brass Coin,

seeing the introduction on it, Cao Xing pondered: "Can it be exchanged for ancient weapons? Are they similar to the Barrett in my hand?"

"I remember that this thing's name also has the prefix of an ancient weapon."

To gather 100 of them before being able to exchange, based on the ratio of a single Snow Demon dropping only 2, Cao Xing would need to kill at least fifty Snow Demons to exchange for one Ancient Treasure Chest.

Clearly, this wasn't something he could accomplish right now.

Shaking his head, he put all these things away.

Under Assam's protection, Cao Xing walked back into the territory.

The commotion just now woke all the territory residents from their sleep, including Liu Muxue who also walked out from the Lords Cabin.

They were all nervously watching the battle outside the territory.

The brutality of the Snow Demon made these territory residents feel terrified.

Fortunately, however, the powerful Lord-adult and his subordinates had finished off this Snow Demon!

Looking at their passionate gazes,

Cao Xing clapped his hands and said, "Alright, everything is fine now. Everyone go back and rest; we still have to work early tomorrow morning."

Territory resident Cao Yi immediately took the lead to say, "As you command, Lord-adult. Your power protects us, allowing us to spend a peaceful night."

"Praise the great Lord-adult!"

Then, all the territory residents scrambled into their warm shelters.

As for Cao Xing, he also took Muxue and prepared to return to the Lords Cabin.

When passing by the Tailor Shop, he saw Xia Yanni leaning against the doorway.

Cao Xing nodded, signaling to her that everything was fine.

Xia Yanni's face carried a reassuring smile, and then she also gently nodded.

After returning to the Lords Cabin, Cao Xing and Muxue fell asleep embracing each other.

No special events happened during the second half of the night.

The next day, just as dawn broke,

a system prompt appeared.

[Survivors, please note! You have spent the fifth night of the Frozen Era. Today will be the last day of the Newbie Protection Period. After tonight, the game content will undergo some changes, please be prepared.]

[Newbie Protection Period remaining time: 22 hours…]

[Weather forecast: Breeze, damp and cold temperature, suitable for going out and developing the territory.]

…

Cao Xing and Muxue both woke up.

Seeing the system prompt, Cao Xing pondered: "Is it already the last day of the Newbie Protection Period?"

"Judging by the danger level of this world, once the Newbie Protection Period passes, quite a few people are probably going to die."

Liu Muxue heard this, a look of worry also appeared in her eyes.

The Snow Demon invasion experience last night made her realize that the snowfield at night was not safe.

Besides the Snow Demon, there was also the upcoming expansion pack: The Dragon's Awakening.

A large number of Ice Nest Monsters would appear in every corner of this world.

Coupled with the beasts wandering in the snowfield, those crazy Hunters, and the army of ice fiends that hadn't been encountered yet,

danger could be said to be everywhere.

These monsters could all take away the lives of a large number of Survivors.

However, the moment she thought of the strength of the territory she was in, the worry in her heart gradually dissipated.

As for the life and death of others, Liu Muxue didn't have any thoughts of considering them.

This couldn't be blamed on her; in this world, being able to preserve oneself was already not easy at all.

Cao Xing said, "Get up, Muxue. Wash up, and we need to go out to arrange work for the territory residents."

"Mm-hmm."

Liu Muxue softly responded, but before getting up, she hugged Cao Xing's neck and kissed him.

Cao Xing smiled.

A few minutes later, the two walked out of the Lords Cabin.

At this time, a large group of people was standing in the open space outside the door.

Seeing Cao Xing come out, a bright light instantly appeared in their eyes, and the group greeted him one after another.

"Respected Lord-adult, good morning, may you be in good health."

"Beautiful Lord's Wife, good morning, may you always be as beautiful as a tender flower."

Cao Xing amusedly chuckled; these native residents all had a bit of eloquence in them, and their morning greetings were different every day.

"Da Zhuang."

Hearing Cao Xing call him, the Arctic People Da Zhuang immediately stepped forward and said righteously, "Lord-adult, please give your instructions."

Cao Xing said, "Today you will suspend the mining of the copper mine, and pack up our rails and mine carts first, lest those monsters destroy them for me."

"Then you lead all the Arctic People around the territory in a circle and begin building primary city walls with all your might."

"Strive to enclose our territory within a single day!"

Cao Xing's territory currently had a diameter of one kilometer, and building a circle of city walls required over three thousand meters.

Calculated at 24 minutes per city wall segment, 8 Arctic People going all out to build city walls simultaneously could more or less enclose the entire territory before dark.

This was the advantage of having many people; as long as the labor force was sufficient, a fortification could be built in a single day.

Da Zhuang immediately said loudly, "Received, Lord-adult!"

Cao Xing looked at an elderly man beside him again, "Cao Yi, your tasks are similarly quite miscellaneous today."

"You need to go upgrade the Tailor Shop, Smithy, Canteen, and all shelters to intermediate level."

"Then build buildings like the bakery and cattle shed."
