Silver Hand, Bind the Holy Book of Light! (5800)

Chapter 410: Silver Hand, Binding the Holy Scripture of Light! (5800)

When he uttered his last sentence, an oppressive aura instantly radiated out.

The expressions of that group of Tribal Witch Doctors immediately turned stern.

Then, they bowed slightly and swore loyalty to Cao Xing.

As for the Wild Boar Warriors, it went without saying.

Under 100 loyalty, they basically obeyed every command.

"Understood, my Lord!"

Seeing them cooperate, Cao Xing was also very satisfied.

Then, he checked the attributes of these new troop types.

[Silver Hand Knights: Wilson]

[Race: Human]

[Level: Level 27 (Tier 3 Ordinary Creature)]

[HP: 21854 / 21854 (Pale Tree Blessing)]

(Description: As an ancient knight order, the Silver Hand can borrow the power of the Silver King. If you can elevate them to Chieftain-level, there is a probability of activating the 'Silver King's Choice' talent.)

…

…

Seeing the attribute panels of this group of knights, Cao Xing's eyes instantly lit up.

"Eh? This [Silver Hand] skill is quite good!"

"Not only does it give the spearmen AoE damage capability, but the range is also quite large."

"Most importantly, this skill will most likely also be blessed by [Eternal Power]!"

"By then, their attack range will permanently change from the original 3 meters to 13 meters!"

Thinking of this, Cao Xing instantly became excited.

Obviously, this group of knights is a perfect match with the griffins!

And unlike other troop types, this time the Silver Hand Knights have a 1,000-person bond effect listed, which is actually all mastery skills increasing by lv1.

This upgrade is very powerful, equivalent to 10% armor penetration and 10% Strength for everyone.

Cao Xing felt very satisfied.

His gaze turned to look at that group of Tribal Witch Doctors.

[Tribal Witch Doctor: Mogesa]

[Race: Human]

[Level: Level 28 (Tier 3 Ordinary Creature)]

[HP: 17247 / 17247 (Pale Tree Blessing)]

[Attack Power: 623 ~ 637]

[Attributes: Strength 173, Agility 241, Spirit 218, Constitution 177]

[Skills: Gu Poison Technique (Normal attack, deals (Agility × 1.5 + Attack Power) points of magical damage to a single enemy, with a 40% chance to cause plague, making the enemy lose (1 + Agility * 0.3) points of HP per second for 8 seconds)

Rejuvenation Technique (Instantly restores (Spirit * 1.2) HP to a single ally, and continuously restores (1 + Agility * 0.4) HP to the ally per second over the next 5 seconds. Cooldown: 30 seconds)]

[Lifestyle Skill: Intermediate Herbalism Mastery]

[Talent: None]

[Bonds: Black Tooth Tribal Witch Doctors (When acting simultaneously, if Tribal Witch Doctors reach 10 people, the trigger probability of 'Gu Poison Technique' plague increases by 20%;

at 30 people, Rejuvenation Technique's instant HP recovery increases by 100%

at 50 people, HP additionally increases by 20%

at 100 people, activates new skill 'Miasma Dispersion')]

(Description: A group of ancient Tribal Witch Doctors, they possess rich knowledge of herbalism.)

…

…

Seeing that [Rejuvenation Technique] skill, Cao Xing's eyes lit up once more.

Just as discussed by other Survivors in the chat channel, these Tribal Witch Doctors have continuous HP regeneration skills.

And the coefficient is not low either.

Right now, as mere Tier 3 ordinary creatures, they already have an HP regeneration of nearly 100 points per second.

It sounds like not much.

But you must know that when Cao Xing was at Tier 3, without those powerful equipment bonuses, he wasn't even as good as this Tribal Witch Doctor!

And next, as long as one of the witch doctors is continuously advanced to enhance their potential, the recovery numbers will also rise accordingly.

Thinking of this, Cao Xing glanced at his backpack.

Currently there is only one Chieftain-level soul, but there are still quite a few Elite and Boss-level souls.

After cultivating loyalty for a bit, he could choose one Tribal Witch Doctor and directly promote them to Boss.

Then cast [Rejuvenation Technique] on everyone.

Besides that, after reaching 100 people, that group of Earth-type Mages also activated a legion skill called [Heart of Rock].

He glanced at the attributes.

[Heart of Rock: When casting Earth-type magic, there is a 30% chance to reset this skill's cooldown to zero, applicable to spells below High-tier at most.]

…

Cao Xing praised, "This skill is also quite good, on par with the Wind-type Mage's bond skill — — Shattered Wind Blades."

"In this way, the speed of leveling the Ice Nest Monster army tomorrow will be even faster."

Satisfied, he nodded, and Cao Xing looked toward the Frost Wolf Knight on the side.

"Assam, come over here."

Upon hearing the command, this loyal knight walked over step by step.

"Lord, please give your orders!"

Cao Xing glanced over and found that Assam's level had also reached Level 50, which is Tier 5 max level.

Including himself, as well as Liu Muxue, Isabelle, Victoria, and others, their levels were all stuck around Level 50.

However, he didn't have any more Master-level Heart of Power in his hands.

The difficulty of obtaining this thing was too great; it only had a chance to drop from Master-level powerhouses.

But thinking about it, it was also normal.

After all, Master-level powerhouses belonged to strategic-level power even within those kingdoms.

If Cao Xing wanted to upgrade everyone to Master-level, even if he wiped out all the creatures in the Gale Snowfield, he probably wouldn't be able to gather so many Hearts of Power.

Shaking his head, he could only think of a solution for these later.

Then, he pulled out a full set of golden battle armor from his backpack.

The moment this set of armor appeared, it attracted the gazes of all the combatants present.

It was precisely the collector's edition battle armor of the Ascalon Kingdom — — the Dauntless Knight Set!

Assam's level was just right to wear it.

Looking at this gorgeous battle armor, a pensive look appeared on Assam's resolute face.

"On this set of armor, there seems to be a power of justice and guardianship."

"The former owner of this armor must have been an extremely powerful and valiant knight!"

Cao Xing nodded, "You are right, this is indeed battle armor belonging to a knight."

"So now, I am going to gift this set of armor to you."

"I hope you can continue to unleash its power."

Hearing this, Assam immediately sheathed the lady of the lake sword, then extended both hands and solemnly received the set of armor.

"Thank you, my Lord!"

Cao Xing slightly nodded, then said: "Very well, now you lead our new knight members to get familiar with the territory, and by the way, arrange living quarters for them."

"Old man Tyren, these earth-type mage apprentices and Tribal Witch Doctors will be left for you to lead."

Hearing this, the two simultaneously replied respectfully.

"Understood!"

With those words finished, several hundred people all dispersed.

Soon, only he and Liu Muxue remained in place.

The two walked side by side in the territory.

Soon they walked from the center of the territory to the fourth-ring area of the territory.

Then, they slowly walked to the outer periphery of the territory's periphery.

They patrolled the territory.

Enjoying the fleeting feeling of being alone together.

A moment later, Liu Muxue softly said: "Axing, these new members summoned today, shouldn't we cast skills on them once?"

Cao Xing laughed: "No rush, our population is almost full, and for the next few days, we probably won't be able to continue summoning."

"So it's the same to slowly buff them in the following days."

"You've worked hard fighting during the day, go get a good rest."

Listening to the care from the man before her, a touched expression surfaced in Liu Muxue's eyes.

Just as she wanted to open her mouth, a bout of chicken cackling interrupted her thoughts.

"Cluck~ Cluck-cluck-cluck~"

The two turned their heads simultaneously.

Seeing a chicken covered entirely in white feathers, about half a meter tall, holding its head high and following behind them.

And it looked like it had been following them the whole way.

It was precisely that Light Feather Chicken.

Cao Xing smiled, then asked: "How did Buoyancy perform today?"

Liu Muxue beside him softly said: "The performance is alright; its [Feather of Light] has quite strong lethality and a pretty wide range."

"So Buoyancy's leveling speed is also very fast."

Hearing Liu Muxue's praise, Buoyancy appeared quite proud.

Holding its head high, its white wings flapped gently.

Cao Xing turned around and shouted: "Buoyancy, come here."

Hearing its master's call, this big chicken quickly strode its legs and trotted over to Cao Xing's side.

"Cluck~"

It raised its head, looking at him with a yearning expression.

Cao Xing knew that this Light Feather Chicken wanted to eat the Heart of the Life Tree again.

After feeding it a few last time, it had acquired a taste for it.

However, Cao Xing did not continue feeding it this time.

Instead, he took out an [Expert-level Heart of Strength] from his backpack and directly crushed it.

With a 'crack' sound, pure power flowed into the Light Feather Chicken's body.

"Cluck?"

Buoyancy was somewhat puzzled.

And when it felt the rapidly surging power within its body, it seemed to understand something.

Its master was going to help it enhance its strength once more.

"Cluck~ Cluck-cluck-cluck~"

Buoyancy appeared very happy,

and its shiny feathers spread out like a pristine white banner.

A moment later, as the system prompt appeared, Buoyancy successfully broke through.

[Your pet: 'Buoyancy' has successfully broken through to a Tier 5 Boss-level creature, base attributes increased by 100%]

[Pet: 'Buoyancy''s loyalty has increased, current loyalty: 100]

…

A smile appeared on the corner of Cao Xing's mouth, and then he waved his hand.

"Buoyancy, find a place to stay by yourself, and you can go play with those griffins when you have nothing to do."

"Don't bully other Light Feather Chickens, hear me?"

Buoyancy still held its head high, except that the gaze looking at Cao Xing was filled with respect.

Then it strode away on its chicken feet, frolicking around in the territory.

Seeing this scene, gentle smiles appeared on the faces of Cao Xing and Liu Muxue.

"Muxue, you go and rest first too. I still have some things to do, and I'll come find you after I'm done."

"Mm-hm!"

Liu Muxue nodded obediently, put her weapon away into her backpack, and walked towards the direction of the Lords Manor.

Cao Xing pondered: "Next, I should go bind the Holy Scripture of Light for Isabelle."

"However, the Church of Light hasn't been flattened yet, so it can't be used openly right now."

"But I have the title of [star picker], and every time I bind a Legendary piece of equipment, it increases my Luck by 10 points."

"So it can still bring a quite significant improvement."

Cao Xing personally felt that the impact of Luck was still quite large.

Although the system did not explicitly point out the function of this attribute.

But Cao Xing could feel that after Luck was enhanced, whether using the Heart of Power for a breakthrough or using souls for transformation, the probability seemed to be a bit higher.

Including the probability of getting higher-quality items from treasure chests, which was also much higher.

"Just right, next I'm planning to exchange for a Bright Moon Treasure Chest."

"Enhancing my Luck right now should give me a wave of good fortune!"

Thinking of this, Cao Xing pressed the communication device on his ear and then asked.

"Isabelle, where are you right now?"

However, this time, Isabelle over there didn't seem to respond.

This also made Cao Xing feel a bit strange.

Because usually, this Holy Light Priestess would reply with a message at the very first moment.

After waiting for a few minutes, a gentle voice came into Cao Xing's ear.

"Lord, I am truly sorry. I was just taking a bath and didn't hear your transmission."

Cao Xing was slightly stunned.

Then he said: "It's fine. I have something to look for you now. Is it convenient for you?"

Isabelle said softly: "Of course it's convenient. I'm right in my room, Lord, please come over."

"Alright."

After saying that, he hung up the communication,

and went straight to the second-ring area of the territory.

That was the room where Isabelle was located.

"Thud! Thud-thud!"

Cao Xing knocked on the door.

A soft voice immediately came from inside.

"Lord, please come in…"

Cao Xing directly pushed open the room door.

A faint, refreshing fragrance came face to face.

Speaking of which, this was his first time entering Isabelle's boudoir.

Before, whenever he wanted to find her, it was in the Mage Tower.

Isabelle's room, just like herself, was filled with holiness and tranquility.

The furniture in the entire room was spotless, and whether it was the bedsheets or the curtains, they were pure white.

At this moment, she had just finished bathing, wearing a thin pajama on her body, and her waterfall-like black hair was scattered casually over her shoulders.

Her skin emitted a faint luster, just like a fairy in the mortal world…

And beneath the pajamas, her devilish body curve was faintly visible, especially that slender waist, which could barely be grasped in one's hand, as if a gentle gathering could hold it in hand.

This was the first time Cao Xing saw Isabelle in such a state.

It was truly both holy and full of temptation.

Wiping her hair with one hand, she tilted her head and asked softly: "Lord, is there something you need me for?"

That soft voice pulled Cao Xing's thoughts back.

He nodded, "There is indeed a rather important matter."

As he spoke, he directly took out the Holy Scripture of Light.

In an instant, intense holy light filled the entire room.

In Isabelle's topaz-like brilliant pupils, a look of surprise instantly appeared.

"This is… a powerful scripture, there seems to be divine power fluctuations on it!"

"Could it be the one from the Church of Light before?!"

In the last siege battle, Isabelle also participated.

Therefore, she naturally knew the origin of the scripture in Cao Xing's hands.

Cao Xing slightly nodded, "You are right, it is the scripture of the God of Light."

"However, the divine power on it has been erased by me, and now you can use it."

Upon hearing this, Isabelle suddenly realized something.

A look of surprise appeared in her beautiful eyes, and she asked doubtfully: "Does the Lord mean to gift this scripture to me?"

Cao Xing nodded, "Of course, there is no one in the entire territory more suitable for this scripture than you."

And Isabelle's face still carried disbelief.

Until Cao Xing handed the scripture in front of her, it made her slightly startled.

"Hold it." Cao Xing's voice sounded.

Isabelle extended her fair hands and cautiously received it.

She hugged this scripture preciously, and a look of being moved appeared in her eyes.

"In our Holy See, only by becoming a Legendary Saint Light Sage does one have the qualification to possess a scripture…"

"And my strongest strength in the past only reached the Saint Light High Priestess…"

"I thought that in this lifetime I would never be able to reach the height of a Saint Light Sage."

"I didn't expect that I can now possess a scripture."

"And it's even a Legendary-grade scripture…"

Isabelle's face carried various complex expressions, including pleasant surprise and being moved.

Hearing this, Cao Xing was pensive.

So the ranks of the Holy See were divided like this.

Was the Master-level called the Saint Light High Priestess, and the Legendary-level powerhouse called the Saint Light Sage?

And this also made Cao Xing realize one point.

That was, there were Legendary-level existences in the Holy See!

And listening to it, it seemed there was more than one.

Realizing this, Cao Xing's heart moved instantly.

Although he knew that the Holy See was an ancient organization.

But as for how strong this organization really was, he didn't have a concrete concept.

And now, through Isabelle's few words, he deduced the terror of this faction.

No matter even if it was the Blood Spider Queen, when facing the Holy See, she didn't dare to be too arrogant.

And more crucially, Isabelle had also said that the Holy See still existed in this world up to now.

Then, where was this ancient organization hiding now?

And when would they appear in the world?

As Cao Xing continuously grew stronger, he also understood more about this world.

Following that were more secrets.

He shook his head, shaking away the thoughts in his mind.

Cao Xing looked at the Holy Light Priestess before him and said: "You are the only Holy Light Priestess in my territory after all, I will definitely cultivate you to the maximum limit."

"You will soon be able to recover the power of the High Priestess, and even one day, advance towards Legendary."

"The things given to Hilda before were because they were very suitable for her."

"If there are things suitable for you, of course they will be given to you first."

Isabelle nodded heavily, "Mm… I know the Lord is very good to me, you won't forget me…"

As she finished speaking, she raised her head, a beautiful smile blooming on her face.

Just like warm sunlight, it dispelled the haze, bringing hope and vitality.

[Due to your generous gift, territory member: Isabelle Gospel's loyalty has increased]

(Because loyalty is full, triggering special effect: Absolute Loyalty!)

…

Seeing the prompt, a look of gratification also appeared on Cao Xing's face.

After this period of getting along, although this Holy Light Priestess didn't say it with her mouth,

in her heart, she had already placed Cao Xing in a more important position than the Holy See.

Otherwise, her loyalty wouldn't have increased to the 'Absolute Loyalty' level.

Cao Xing said: "Alright, bind this scripture."

"Right, when you are outside in the future, remember not to casually take this scripture out."

"You know, my enemies haven't been completely resolved yet."

This woman, holy as an angel, nodded gently, "Mm, I know."

"However, I believe that with the Lord's power, it won't take long before all enemies will definitely be resolved."

Cao Xing smiled.

"Let's hope so."

At this time, Isabelle gently held the scripture in her hands.

Then, bursts of holy light power emanated from her body, and fell into this scripture, seemingly making some kind of connection.

A moment later.

This scripture, which had originally become dim and dull, instantly blazed with brilliant light!

The book turned pages crazily without any wind.

"Rustle-rustle~!"

The tyrannical power of holy light gradually filled the entire room.

In the blink of an eye, the holy light power on Isabelle's body surged by a huge margin!

System prompt appeared.

[Your territory member: Isabelle has bound the Legendary item: Holy Scripture of Light – Radiant Chapter.]

[Title: star picker has been upgraded, Luck + 10…]

…

A trace of a smile appeared on the corner of Cao Xing's mouth once again.

"Congratulations, Isabelle."

"I can feel that this scripture is very suitable for you."

Isabelle also said with emotion: "Yes…"

"This is a light-attribute scripture, and there are many light-attribute magics on it that can be directly driven."

"Under the condition of possessing this scripture, my combat power should be enough to challenge Commander-level creatures of the same tier."

Cao Xing's heart moved.

Isabelle, like Assam, were both boss-level creatures possessing Legendary weapons.

However, under the blessing of Legendary items, their true combat power was equivalent to commanders of the same tier.

But if either of these two could advance, presumably they could usher in a great transformation once more.

However, in his backpack, there was only one Commander-level soul left.

And after this soul failed, there was also a probability of aberrant effects appearing.

Thinking about it, he decided to forget it.

Cao Xing nodded slightly and continued: "You go and rest first, I will give you a few magic crystals in a moment."

"Absorbing this kind of magic crystal while meditating should allow your spell strength to rise…"

Before the words were finished, an extremely beautiful face carrying holiness was already rapidly approaching…
