Chapter 288: A Complete Sweep, A Massive Harvest! (6200)

Chapter 288: A Complete Sweep, A Massive Harvest! (6200)

"Whoosh—whoosh—"

The surrounding fallen leaves, branches, and gravel instantly converged toward that black dot.

Panic appeared in the eyes of all the Cloud Yaks.

Then, their bodies began to fly backward out of control!

It was as if a terrifying suction force was pulling all of them in.

"Bang! Bang bang!"

A series of fleshy thuds resounded as all the Cloud Yaks were gathered together.

Everyone looked at this scene in shock.

Fortunately, that kind of suction force had no effect on them.

Otherwise, even a big guy like Braum would have been sucked over.

And Cao Xing happily said: "Haha, this thing is really useful!"

As his words fell, he rushed straight over and began continuously using [Primary Contract].

[Ding! Contract successful…]

[Ding! Contract successful…]

Soon, another eleven Cloud Yaks fell into Cao Xing's grasp.

And the control time of the [Primal Cube] had also ended.

On the field, only the last robust-looking Cloud Yak remained, still putting up stubborn resistance.

Then, as the encirclement gradually shrank,

a group of big guys surrounded it tightly.

Obviously, this yak no longer had any chance.

It charged again and again, but was pushed back by everyone each time.

And Cao Xing was also directly facing it, continuously casting pet contracts.

[Contract failed…]

[Contract failed…]

After using 5 in a row, it still didn't succeed.

Cao Xing was stunned, "Damn, it's so hard to tame?"

Seeing this situation, he directly took out three [Intermediate Pet Contracts] from his backpack.

[Contract failed…]

[Contract failed…]

Until the third contract was used,

a trace of struggle finally flashed in the eyes of this Cloud Yak.

[Ding! Contract successful, magical creature: Elite Cloud Yak Lv20 has become your pet, territory population +2…]

…

"Haha, so it was an elite yak, no wonder it was so hard to contract," Cao Xing said joyfully.

At this point, all 59 yaks had been swept up by him and completely secured.

All commotion quieted down.

The entire herd of yaks stood quietly in place.

Seeing this, Elisa excitedly said: "Wow! They were actually all caught! Lord is truly the most amazing!"

"Great! That way, Elisa will have endless milk to drink!"

Joyful smiles also appeared on everyone's faces.

The value of this group of Cloud Yaks was immeasurable.

Previously, there were only 19 yaks in the territory, and the milk produced in one week sold for over a million crowns!

Now there are 59, tripling the production!

In other words, as long as these yaks are brought back,

just from milk production alone, Cao Xing can earn four million crowns in a week!

So much money can be used precisely for subsequent territory construction.

Don't look at how little Cao Xing's territory spends right now,

but that is under the condition that the territory scale is small.

Later on, if it really develops in the direction of Giant City, the consumption will be quite terrifying.

Whether it is building a large number of houses, city walls, or defensive fortifications, a terrifying amount of money and resources are needed.

Once it reaches the scale of Giant City, Cao Xing's current military force is far from enough.

Therefore, he still needs to cultivate his own army.

The daily consumption of these soldiers is also a terrifying figure.

Even paying salaries to those town administrators is no small expense.

However, by that time, the city lord will also have other sources of income.

Moreover, it is still too early to think about these things.

With a joyful expression, he looked at the attributes of these yaks.

[Cao Xing's pet: Cloud Yak]

[Level: Level 20 (Tier 2 Elite Creature)]

[HP: 5568 / 5568 (Pale Tree Blessing)]

[Attack Power: 201 ~ 226]

[Skills: Nature Perception, Cloud Charge, Nature Shelter, Cloud Blessing]

[Talent ①: Thermal Energy Absorption]

[Talent ②: Crisis Perception]

[Satiety: 78]

[Loyalty: 61]

…

Cao Xing secretly thought: "The loyalty of these yaks is relatively low, but it doesn't matter."

"At least they won't think about running away, and they basically obey my commands."

"As long as they are brought back and trained for a period of time, they will be as obedient as that group of yaks in the territory."

Cao Xing nodded in satisfaction.

Then he continued to ask: "By the way, Elisa, where are the Light Feather Chickens you mentioned?"

Elisa replied: "Right on the road you came from, there is a mountain called Laslo Mountain, and those Light Feather Chickens are in the forest."

"But Lord must be careful, oh! These are wild chickens in the mountains, very cautious!"

"If you want to catch them, you must be as careful as catching Cloud Yaks!"

Cao Xing replied: "Rest assured, this time to catch these chickens, I have prepared good things."

"What good things are they?" Elisa tilted her head, seemingly piqued of curiosity by Cao Xing.

"I'll tell you later."

"Wow! Why is Lord like this?"

Cao Xing smiled.

Then he looked at the large amount of pinkish-purple plants growing beside the pool.

"Muxue, let's go over and harvest all those Moses grass and bring them back to the territory."

"Okay."

After saying that, the two walked toward the lake.

Right at this moment, Sarah suddenly appeared beside Cao Xing and urgently said: "Lord, be careful!"

Cao Xing's expression shifted, because he felt a gust of wind coming from above his head, an arrow hurtling toward him at extreme speed!

Sarah's figure flashed, and then wielding the short blade in her hand, she slashed down fiercely.

"Ding!"

The arrow was severed.

Cao Xing did not suffer any damage.

This also caused everyone on the scene to enter a combat state.

Cao Xing quickly raised his head and saw that on the edge of the cliff above, a group of figures wearing animal skin coats had abruptly appeared!

Their faces were smeared with tattoos, and they wore horned helmets made from beast bones on their heads.

Madness was in everyone's eyes.

One of the burly guys holding a large saber said in pleasant surprise: "Haha! To think these humans managed to catch Cloud Yaks!"

"Brothers, kill all these people, and then bring these yaks back; it will be enough for our camp to eat for many days!"

The others also let out crazy, loud laughter.

It could be seen that these guys were not doing this kind of thing for the first time.

The position chosen was extremely tricky.

Cao Xing and the others were located below the canyon.

These guys were making attacks from both sides of the canyon.

At this moment, one of the tall and thin guys seemed to notice Victoria, Renice, and the others in the crowd.

He immediately exclaimed: "Boss, there are several pretty women in this bunch of people, so tender!"

That burly guy said: "Care whether she's pretty or not, kill them all first, and just bring the corpses back to play with!"

"Eat them directly after you're tired of playing."

Hearing these words, Sarah, Renice, and the others below instantly turned cold in expression.

They were about to rush up immediately.

The leading guy saw the intentions of Cao Xing and the others, and knew they seemed not to be trifled with.

He quickly ordered: "Don't give those guys a chance to counterattack!"

"Release arrows!"

Instantly, on the opposite cliff edge, dozens of archers drew their bowstrings.

"Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh!"

These guys were extremely ferocious and very insidious.

They knew that the people below valued the Cloud Yaks, so many arrows were shot toward the yak herd.

Seeing this situation, Cao Xing quickly ordered: "Protect our yaks."

Braum wanted to rush over and use his shield to block those arrows.

Right at this moment, Victoria gave a light shout.

"Qi drives energy, endless as the stream!"

As her words fell, an invisible gale rose from the Qi Queen.

This gale blew her brown twin tails.

The next moment, a layer of yellow Qi barrier rapidly appeared from within her body.

The Qi barrier expanded rapidly, directly reaching a diameter of 50 meters, protecting all the yaks and everyone inside the Qi barrier.

"Puff! Puff puff!"

Those arrows landed on the Qi barrier, stirring up ripples, and then a large amount of damage numbers appeared.

[-2751]

[-2134]

[-2852]

[-2061]

…

The Qi barrier had no armor.

Through these damage numbers, Cao Xing instantly judged that the strength of this group of guys above was at least Tier 3 or higher.

However, Victoria's current HP was a full 200,000, and the Qi barrier's durability was 120%.

That is to say, this Qi barrier had a full 240,000 HP.

Even if they stood there and let them hit it, the Qi barrier could not be broken.

The crisis of the Cloud Yaks was resolved.

Cao Xing laughed, and he winked at Sarah beside him.

Sarah understood his meaning and directly disappeared in place.

At this very moment, those guys on the top of the mountain also saw the huge Qi barrier that suddenly appeared below.

"Captain, that woman has such bizarre methods; she can even release a kind of shield, and our arrows cannot damage them."

Seeing this scene, this strongly built guy snorted coldly, and then ordered: "Hmph, push the boulders down and smash all these guys to death for me!"

"Let me see how many attacks her shield can withstand!"

The tall and thin man next to him hesitated and said: "Boss, if we smash these women flat, we won't be able to play with them anymore!"

Hearing this, this person slapped him across the face.

"You brat, only thinking about playing with women; our camp is almost out of food, do you know that?!"

"Smash them down!"

"Okay… Okay…"

Hearing this, the others successively pushed boulders down.

"Rumble!"

Boulders with destructive momentum rolled directly down from the top of the mountain!

Seeing this scene, the corner of Cao Xing's mouth curled into an arc, "Interesting, isn't this the method I used to deal with that group of Hunters back then?"

"Now it has fallen on my own head?"

However, he didn't panic either, but instead ordered: "Make your move, block those boulders."

"Rumble!"

At least a dozen boulders fell.

The commotion like a landslide and earth-splitting made that group of Cloud Yaks restless.

Right at this moment,

Braum and Liu Muxue, two shield warriors, rushed straight out.

Then, before two boulders crashed down, they directly used the shields in their hands to smash over!

Shield Reflect!

Bash!

"Bang! Bang!"

As level 40 shield warriors, their strength was terrifyingly strong, directly batting away those two boulders!

On the other side,

Bo Jie, Sun Chaser leaped high into the air.

Although he was only at Tier 3 strength now, as a commander-level figure fused with powerful blood, his strength was terrifyingly formidable!

Wielding the giant axe in his hand, he hacked down fiercely!

"Boom!"

This boulder was actually shattered directly by his chop!

On the field, there were still eight boulders remaining.

Andrew directly transformed into a violent bear, letting out a explosive roar to block one of the boulders with brute force.

Assam wielded the lady of the lake sword, using Frost Wolf sword Qi to directly slice it to pieces!

Then, Jonard and Josent each used Ice Dragon Spear Break to shatter a boulder.

Including Hilda and Isabelle, they also used their respective methods to block a boulder.

The last two remaining boulders landed on the Qi barrier, stirring up two massive damage numbers.

[-22314]

[-23251]

…

The durability instantly dropped by a huge chunk.

However, it had no impact on them.

Seeing this scene, those guys above looked as if they had seen a ghost, shock appearing in their eyes.

"Mountain God above! Are these a group of monsters? They can even block such boulders!"

"Their strength is almost comparable to Lord Leader!"

Even that chieftain looked at the crowd below with a shocked expression.

"Don't panic everyone, we are on top of the cliff, fully over a hundred meters high, these guys can't come up!"

"Continue attacking!"

Just as they were preparing to launch a new round of attacks.

A shadow had silently appeared behind them.

A cold light flashed.

The short blade in her hand directly slashed across one of their necks.

"Swish! Swish!"

[-15742!]

[-13522!]

Critical Attack!

Coup de Grace!

With two terrifying damage numbers, this person's HP directly dropped to zero and fell on the spot!

And this group of people also noticed the situation behind them, as well as the corpse on the ground, sending a chill rising down their backs instantly.

"Boss, a Dark Elf has come up and killed one of our brothers!"

The burly leader snorted coldly: "Don't panic, go together and capture her for me!"

As the words fell, dozens of nearby raiders holding blades, spears, and clubs swarmed toward Sarah.

However, facing overwhelming odds, Sarah had no fear at all.

The corners of her lips curved into a soul-capturing arc, and everyone on the field felt a sense of being targeted by a venomous snake in their hearts!

In an instant, Sarah entered the [Moon Wheel Dance] state, and eight clones appeared in place!

These figures also held dual blades and suddenly charged toward different directions!

"Swish! Swish swish!"

Like eight streaks of lightning flashing past.

Dense cutting sounds rang out, and terrifying bloody scars appeared on the bodies of those charging raiders!

[-12742!]

[-7862]

[-13823!]

[-11945!]

…

An 80% critical strike rate, coupled with thousands of terrifying attacks.

At this moment, Sarah's damage with every strike was exceptionally terrifying!

The HP of the surrounding raiders plummeted by a large chunk.

However, before they could even react.

Those eight figures suddenly turned back and performed the second and third segments of slashing!

"Swish! Swish swish!"

In an instant, more than a dozen figures around them all perished, collapsing limply.

Cao Xing's side also received system prompts.

[Your territory member: Sarah Blade Dance killed Snow Mountain Raider Lv38, Tier 4 ordinary creature, obtained Experience Points: 1520]

[Combat personnel obtained Experience Points: 760]

[Your territory member: Sarah Blade Dance killed Snow Mountain Raider Lv39, Tier 4 elite creature, obtained Experience Points: 3120]

[Combat personnel obtained Experience Points: 1560]

[Your…]

…

…

By the edge of the cliff.

This group of Snow Mountain Raiders looked at the corpses all over the ground with expressions of terror in their eyes.

Facing the group's siege, the opponent not only suffered no damage at all.

Instead, with a single strike, she wiped out a dozen of their companions!

The combat power of this Dark Elf assassin far exceeded imagination.

They finally realized that they seemed to have provoked a group of existences that shouldn't be provoked!

With just the Dark Elf before them, it was enough to slaughter them all!

At this time, one of the Snow Mountain Raider leaders also realized Sarah's terror.

And hurriedly gave orders in panic.

"Release arrows, release arrows!"

Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh!

Across the cliff, a large number of arrows flew towards Sarah.

And this powerful Phantom Assassin's figure flickered, directly disappearing in place.

The next moment, she appeared behind one of the raiders again.

The blade in her hand fell mercilessly!

"Puff! Puff!"

[-11531!]

[-17523!]

Coup de Grace!

This raider collapsed limply.

Then, the same scene kept repeating.

This group of Snow Mountain Raiders constantly besieged Sarah.

And she was like an erratic nightmare, constantly blinking.

Every time she manifested, someone would definitely lose their life!

Her eerie movement speed even prevented them from touching Sarah's shadow!

And that terrifying attack power constantly sent chills through the hearts of the Snow Mountain Raiders!

Meanwhile.

Everyone above was held back by Sarah alone, and the herd of cattle was temporarily safe.

And Cao Xing also knew that those attacking them were Snow Mountain Raiders.

Cao Xing thought to himself: "These guys actually have quite high levels."

He looked at everyone on the field: "Which of you can go up and help Sarah wipe out those guys."

As the words fell, Renice, Jonard, Josent, and Bo Jie, Sun Chaser rushed out directly from the field.

Renice was also an agility-type class, and her posture was extremely flexible.

She directly jumped high, stepped on one of the protruding stones, then exerted force with another kick to rise several meters again, jumping up after a few consecutive tries.

Soon, terrified screams from the group of Snow Mountain Raiders came from above.

Bo Jie, Sun Chaser also used [Swift Execution], his whole body shooting instantly into the sky a hundred meters high like a cannonball!

Then, this Tier 3 commander-level figure landed directly above that group of archers.

Seeing Bjorn suddenly appear, this group of Snow Mountain Raiders exclaimed in shock!

"The guy from below came up, looking like an unweaned brat!"

"This guy looks so fair and tender, after we kill him in a moment, bring him back for me to play with!"

As the words fell, all the archers drew their bowstrings.

At this moment, Bjorn let out a low roar in his mouth.

"Dragon blood, grant me your blessing!"

[Your territory member: Bo Jie, Sun Chaser used [Advanced Dragon Blood Extraction], blessed by the talent [Eternal Power], this skill has become a permanent state…]

…

On Bjorn's body, his already terrifying aura surged by another section!

Before those arrows could hit him, he leaped high, then holding a giant axe, smashed down like a comet!

"Boom!!!"

Instantly, gravel flew everywhere!

A two-to-three-meter deep pit appeared where he landed!

All the nearby archers were blasted away.

And damage numbers appeared above their heads.

[-3192]

[-3023]

[-2841]

[-2903]

…

It looked like the damage had a huge gap compared to Sarah.

But what needs to be known is.

Bjorn is currently only a Tier 3 commander-level creature.

While Sarah is already a Tier 5 commander-level creature.

Therefore, being able to deal this damage was already extremely terrifying!

However, despite this, Bo Jie, Sun Chaser at this moment also displayed an unstoppable momentum!

He held the giant axe and then slashed fiercely forward!

Dragonslayer Battle Axe!

"Swish!"

It was as if even the air was split open!

A strong gust of wind swept across!

All the archers were directly blown away by this axe, and damage numbers appeared above their heads.

[-2755]

[-2853]

[-2952]

[-2642]

…

At this moment, shock appeared in the eyes of all the archers.

"Dammit, this kid clearly only has a Tier 3 aura on him, why is he so powerful?"

"I don't know! He is simply like a monster!"

And at this time, Bjorn was killing to his heart's content, wielding the giant axe that was almost as tall as a person with a roaring wind!

Every time it hacked onto the bodies of those Snow Mountain Raiders, a chorus of bones shattering rang out.

Relying on the powerful recovery ability and armor bestowed by Cao Xing, he rampaged through this group of archers!

For a time, severed limbs and broken arms flew everywhere.

Screams rang out continuously.

With his own strength, he slaughtered this group of Tier 4 archers until they discarded their armor and helmets.

At the same time, two Dragon Blood Warriors had used [Dragon Spear Assault], suddenly flying into mid-air.

And instantly joined the battle on Bjorn's side.

The battle above began a one-sided landslide.

And on the opposite battlefield, with Renice joining, it was also a complete landslide!

Kill prompts came one after another.

[Your territory member: Bo Jie, Sun Chaser killed Snow Mountain Raider Lv38, Tier 4 ordinary creature, leapfrog monster killing, obtained Experience Points: 1520 * 3]

[Combat personnel obtained Experience Points: 760]

[Your…]

…

Five minutes later.

When the commotion on the mountaintop subsided, it meant the battle was over.

Sarah, Renice, and a total of five people fell from the cliff, then returned to the group.

Cao Xing praised: "Well done."

The five nodded slightly.

At this time, Sarah said: "Lord, we wiped out the vast majority of the enemies, but one of the Tier 5 leaders escaped."

Hearing this, Cao Xing was momentarily stunned.

A Tier 5 leader, although very strong.

But with Sarah's combat power, it was enough to crush ordinary Tier 5 commanders.

How could he still escape from the hands of the two of them?

At this time, Renice said: "We let him go on purpose."

"He was shot by an arrow of mine, and has a hunting mark left by me on his body. We can follow this mark to find the location of the opponent's camp."

Hearing these words, a look of realization appeared in everyone's eyes.

Cao Xing looked at the two women with a peculiar gaze, and then said: "How do you know I want to go find their camp."

Sarah and Renice looked at each other, and then a faint smile appeared on the corners of their mouths.

"Reporting to the Lord, because these raiders are a group of bandits, and it looks like they haven't done less of this robbery stuff usually. Since they have a camp, it means there will be quite a lot of supplies inside."

"And our territory is currently in the development stage, requiring a large amount of resources, which can just be brought back to the territory."

There was some confusion in the eyes of the newly joined Bjorn and Victoria.

While the corners of the others' mouths showed faint smiles.

Having followed their lord for so long, they all understood his personality.

What was the thing that Cao Xing loved doing most?

Aside from grinding monsters and farming, it was looting other people's lairs.

Just as mentioned above, these guys had robbed so many caravans and claimed themselves as kings of the mountain here for so long, so there must be plenty of resources in the camp.

If they could loot it once, it would definitely be enough for Cao Xing to make a fortune.

Cao Xing laughed, "You are right."

"These guys have been plaguing this area, robbing those caravans and Hunters, and harming the lives of countless people!"

"Let's go and raid… no, occupy their camp and eliminate a scourge for the people!"
