Chapter 117 Sarah’s Re-

Chapter 117 Sarah's Request, the Novice Protection Period is Officially Lifted!

Furthermore, these medium-sized residential houses were similarly equipped with wooden beds and quilts.

The quilts were sewn by Xia Yanni overnight using rabbit skins, making them quite warm.

At this moment, Cao Xing thought of what happened between him and Xia Yanni last night.

Deep in his heart, it seemed as though something had been hooked.

Meanwhile, Liu Muxue had simply wiped down her body, then sat on the edge of the bed and gently took off the wolf-skin coat on her body.

Suddenly, a flawless body with smooth skin and perfect curves was presented before Cao Xing.

Liu Muxue was the first to crawl into the covers, covering half her face with the quilt as she said, "A-Xing… It's cold outside, come back into the covers and warm up for a bit."

Cao Xing nodded, "Alright, I'm coming right over."

He stripped off his outer garments and slipped into the warm covers.

The next moment, a pair of slender and warm legs hooked toward him.

The two looked at each other, Liu Muxue's exquisitely beautiful face carrying a hint of shyness and a trace of anticipation.

Until an hour later.

The beauty lay contentedly in Cao Xing's arms, and before long, she fell fast asleep.

Since the global descent until today, nearly six nights had passed.

She had also grown accustomed to the presence of the person beside her pillow.

Cao Xing held that warm body tightly in his arms.

It was past nine in the evening, and it was still early, so he didn't have much sleepiness.

After another hour or so passed.

Cao Xing heard a system prompt.

[Your Lords Cabin has successfully upgraded. Current Level: Level 3]

[Population limit +100, Reputation +200]

[Current Population: 100 / 206]

[Territory buildings such as the Blacksmith, Ore Processing Plant, Tailor Shop, Canteen, and Arctic People Cabin can now be upgraded to Level 3.]

Seeing this prompt, Cao Xing's expression immediately perked up.

"It's finally done."

He gently settled the beauty in his arms, then pulled out his arm.

Liu Muxue was sleeping very sweetly and wasn't woken up by him.

As for Cao Xing, he quickly put on his clothes and came outside the territory.

At this moment, Da Zhuang and the others were holding hammers with their hands on their hips, looking at the buildings before them with satisfaction.

This was the success of their labor, and a sense of fulfillment welled up in their hearts.

Cao Xing also noticed the changes in the Lords Cabin.

The Level 3 Lords Cabin was still a two-story building, except there were more decorations on the outside.

Eaves, door handles, and patterned windows.

Seeing Cao Xing coming over, Da Zhuang said excitedly, "Lord Lord! We have lived up to our mission and successfully upgraded the Lords Cabin."

"Please arrange more work for us!"

Cao Xing smiled, "You've worked hard, Da Zhuang, but your tasks for today are already completed, and you can go back to rest now."

Then he added another sentence, "Right, this is an order."

Hearing this, several Arctic People looked at each other and no longer pushed back.

Da Zhuang smiled and said, "Alright, respected Lord Lord, then we will go rest!"

Cao Xing nodded, and then patrolled the territory once more.

He saw that the new cowshed had also been built.

Those yaks, sheep, and big-horned dairy cows that originally wandered around the territory now had a shelter to avoid the cold wind and low temperatures at night.

Not only that, but the Basic Elemental Arrow Towers also increased from 6 to 13 within just a few hours.

Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction, and then called all the territory residents over.

"Everyone, today's work ends here. Now I order you all to go rest!"

Hearing Cao Xing's voice, all the working residents smiled.

Then they said in unison, "Obey the Lord Lord's command!"

They put down the tools in their hands and crawled into their own shelters.

Then, Cao Xing sent recruitment invitations to the remaining 14 Arctic People.

[Recruitment successful: Arctic People Chris-tu, Pal, Angelo… have joined your territory, territory population +14]

His population became: 114 / 206

Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction.

"Very good, everything is ready. Next, we just need to wait for tomorrow's expansion update."

And just as he was preparing to return to his room,

Sarah appeared silently.

Under the moonlight, Sarah was dressed in a tight black bodysuit, her taut legs pressed together, looking at Cao Xing somewhat restlessly, appearing as if she had something to say but stopped herself.

Cao Xing asked in puzzlement, "Sarah, what's wrong with you?"

Sarah said softly, "Lord Lord, I encountered some matters and need to consult you…"

Cao Xing was stunned, then said, "What matter? Could it be that you've encountered trouble?"

Sarah shook her head, her tone growing even softer, "No… It's not…"

"Then what is it?"

"It's… not very convenient here. Let's change places to talk…"

Then, without a word of explanation, Sarah grabbed Cao Xing's wrist and pulled him quickly toward her residence.

Cao Xing was completely baffled, but Sarah, as his second die-hard level subordinate, would definitely not harm him.

Then, he was pulled by Sarah and entered her residence.

After entering the room, Sarah directly closed the door with a 'bang'.

Then she nervously gazed at Cao Xing.

As her breathing grew more hurried, her entire person took on a peculiar aura.

Cao Xing asked, "Sarah, what have you encountered?"

Inside the room, Sarah said hesitatingly, "Last night, I saw you and that woman in the Tailor Shop doing… doing that kind of thing…"

Hearing that latter sentence, Cao Xing's eyes suddenly widened, and then he coughed violently, "Ahem! Ahem-ahem!"

"Sarah, don't misunderstand, our relationship is normal, we were just… just…"

By the end, even Cao Xing felt a bit guilty.

Sarah shook her head and said, "No… I don't mean that…"

"I… I don't know what's wrong with me either. Ever since I saw what you and that human woman did, whenever I see you, I get a feeling of my heartbeat accelerating…"

"For us assassins, this is a major taboo."

"We must maintain a state of mind like stagnant water when slicing across an enemy's throat; this is the basic rule of an assassin."

"And now, I can't achieve this…"

"Therefore, I want to know why I've become like this."

Cao Xing was stunned for a moment, seeming to understand the reason.

Dark Elves, especially assassins like Sarah, have always been a race that accompanies darkness and dances with death.

In their lives, there was only blood and death, and they basically had no contact with other opposite sexes.

However, no matter what, they were also an intelligent race.

And as long as it was life, it possessed its own emotions and impulses.

After accidentally running into what Cao Xing and Xia Yanni did, it was like opening the door to a new world, so her heart could never calm down since.

"Sarah, what do you want to do?"

"I… I don't know… But my heart drives me, wanting to do the same thing with you as that woman…"

By the end, Sarah's voice grew smaller and smaller, and that slender, taut body was wriggling restlessly.

A moment later, Cao Xing said, "Sarah, do you want to try it?"

This cold and aloof Dark Elf paused, then nodded.

Amidst Cao Xing's surprised gaze, she took off her mask for the first time.

The stove in the room was burning with bright light.

Borrowing the illumination of the firelight, Cao Xing saw a woman with a chocolate skin tone, exquisite facial features, and eyes as shiny as gemstones.

Her shiny gaze carried shyness, coupled with the uniquely pointed ears of the Dark Elf Clan, giving people an exotic aesthetic feel.

This made it hard for Cao Xing to connect the exotic beauty in front of him with the merciless shadow assassin from the daytime.

Amidst Cao Xing's surprised gaze.

Sarah slowly crouched down.

Cao Xing's eyes instantly widened.

A few minutes later, Sarah cautiously asked, "Is… is it like this?"

Cao Xing moved his throat, then nodded.

"It is like this, you are very smart… Sarah."

Hearing this, a flush immediately rose across Sarah's face.

More than ten minutes later, both of their body temperatures seemed to be rising.

Cao Xing could clearly feel that the Dark Elf before him was trembling slightly.

He grabbed Sarah's shoulders and gently helped her up.

Speaking of which, Cao Xing had never been in such close contact with Sarah before.

Beneath Sarah's assassin leather clothes was a curvaceous and taut figure.

This might be related to the cruel training she underwent since childhood.

And after reaching this step, Sarah seemed not to know what to do, standing blankly in place.

Cao Xing said, "Sarah, take off your clothes."

Hearing these words, Sarah was obviously even more shy.

But she still followed suit.

The black leather jacket on her upper body slowly slipped off.

Cao Xing saw a breathtaking figure with chocolate skin, well-defined curves, and an exceptionally clear waistline presenting itself before him.

Not only that, Cao Xing even saw that this Dark Elf woman actually wore a chest wrap.

A circle of white gauze tightly wrapped around her chest.

But even so, it was still hard to hide that pair ready to burst out.

Cao Xing's eyes nearly popped out straight; he didn't expect that beneath Sarah's slim figure, there would actually be such a perfect size.

This was truly bearing abundant fruit on slender branches, which was also related to the bloodline of the Elf Clan.

Noticing Cao Xing's burning gaze, Sarah shyly murmured softly, "It's too big… I find it too much of a hindrance…"

"Do… Do you like it?"

Cao Xing replied without hesitation, "I like it."

However, under Sarah's surprised gaze, Cao Xing directly tore off her chest wrap.

Sarah trembled all over.

Following Cao Xing's actions, Sarah's body trembled continuously.

Beneath her beautiful eyes filled with a hazy mist, she gazed at Cao Xing, her legs also trembling uncontrollably.

Yet she still gritted her teeth, stubbornly standing in place and letting Cao Xing do as he pleased.

This stubborn look further stirred up a certain thought in Cao Xing's heart.

Then, Cao Xing gently picked her up and placed her on the bed.

The night gradually burned up…

This stunner of the Dark Elf Clan went from her initial greenness to enthusiastically responding later on.

With joy and satisfaction in her eyes, she hooked her arms around Cao Xing's neck and wriggled her body.

Right before falling asleep, Sarah murmured, "So… this was the reason for the restlessness in my heart…"

"I seem to understand now…"

As for Cao Xing, he waited until Sarah was fast asleep.

Only then did he leave her room.

At this point it was already late at night, and the cold wind howled outside.

Most people in the entire territory had already entered dreamland.

However, Cao Xing saw that the second-floor window of the residential house opposite was wide open.

Ilena was leaning against the window, flicking her scarlet forked tongue, looking at Cao Xing with great interest.

Cao Xing instantly felt extremely awkward.

But he didn't say much, quickly leaving this place.

Watching Cao Xing's back, Ilena chuckled softly, seeming to understand something.

Then, Cao Xing slipped back into Liu Muxue's room.

The room was still warm, and the beauty on the bed was still fast asleep.

Cao Xing cautiously slipped into the warm quilt.

At the same time, a warm arm draped over Cao Xing's body,

Liu Muxue in her sleep seemed to smell something.

Her beautiful eyes opened, and then she sniffed around Cao Xing's neck.

"Sniff… Sniff…"

Cao Xing suddenly became a bit nervous.

At this moment, Liu Muxue suddenly revealed a cunning smile.

Cao Xing also knew that Liu Muxue probably figured something out.

A woman's sixth sense is always very accurate.

He said awkwardly, "Muxue…"

However, Liu Muxue extended a finger to block Cao Xing's lips.

The next moment, she burrowed straight into Cao Xing's arms.

After another round of passion, the woman in his arms fell asleep contentedly…

On the bed, Cao Xing wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

He couldn't help sighing in his heart, "Fortunately, upgrading in this world increases physical attributes, otherwise going on like this, even I wouldn't be able to handle it…"

…

No other incidents occurred in the second half of the night.

Nearly ninety percent of the Survivor had entered dreamland.

However, this world was quietly undergoing certain changes.

The next day…

When the first ray of morning light appeared, a system prompt sounded in everyone's ears.

[Attention Survivor! You have survived the sixth night of the Frozen Era. There are only 10 minutes left until the end of the newbie protection period. The new version is about to update, please be prepared.]

Hearing this system prompt, Cao Xing and Liu Muxue opened their eyes at the same time.

Liu Muxue rubbed her hazy eyes and muttered sleepily, "Mm… The protection period is about to end."

Cao Xing nodded, "Yeah, let's get up first and go outside to see what changes will happen after the update."

At the same time, he glanced at the countdown above his head.

[Remaining time of newbie protection period: 0 hours 9 minutes 32 seconds…]

It was the last ten minutes.

Cao Xing and Liu Muxue quickly cleaned up and walked out of the room.

Not just them.

Across the entire continent, the vast majority of Survivor who came from Blue Star walked out of their cabins.

Then, they jointly welcomed the arrival of the new version.

The countdown slowly ticked away.

Everyone gazed at the countdown overhead.

[Remaining time of newbie protection period: 0 hours 0 minutes 12 seconds…]

Ten seconds later, the system prompt appeared.

[Attention all Survivor: The newbie protection period has officially ended,]

[Total global arrival population: 7.233 billion, deaths: 2.144 billion, remaining population: 5.089 billion, comprehensive mortality rate: 29.64%]

[All surviving Survivor, congratulations, you have adapted to the cruel rules of the new world.]

[Next, please do your utmost to survive in this cold world and start a brand-new life.]

…

The first system prompt completely detonated the World Channel.

In 6 days, over 2 billion people died.

A mortality rate as high as 30% made everyone feel the cruelty of this world.

These were not cold numbers, but over two billion lost lives!

Don't look at how lively the chat channel is right now, those are all Survivor who have adapted.

More people died silently in the cold night.

Even if an entire family was frozen into ice blocks, no one would know.

Liu Muxue furrowed her pretty brows tightly and glanced at Cao Xing.

Cao Xing patted her shoulder and didn't say much.

At the same time, system prompts continued to appear!

[New Expansion Pack: Dragon Awakening has officially begun.]

[The world environment will change. The following are the update contents.]

[Update Content 1: Dragon Rolling Over. Following the activities of the Ancient Dragon 'Zhuoma', over the next seven days, the eruption frequency of the Ice Nest will increase, and there is a higher probability of them appearing next to the territories of various Survivor.
