After hearing this, Cao Xing fell into thinking again.
Level 3 creatures are also divided into strengths and weaknesses, such as level 3 elites and level 3 leaders. The gap is huge.
That goblin king was a third-level leader-level creature. In his weak state, they fought very hard.
If it were a third-level leader in its prime, Cao Xing could only barely contend with Cao Xing’s current strength.
And what made him even more worried…if it wasn’t the leader, but a more advanced creature, then he would just send it directly.
Ji Xinyue did not rush, but waited silently.
After a while, Cao Xing replied: “I understand, please send me the coordinates of the camp first, and I will see how far it is.”
“If it’s too far, there’s nothing I can do.”
Upon hearing the news, Ji Xinyue sent the coordinates without hesitation.
After looking at the map, it was almost two hundred kilometers away from his current location! Cao Xing said helplessly: “You are too far away from me. It’s too late to rush over at my current speed.”
Hearing this, Ji Xinyue on the other side panicked.
She said with a trembling tone: “Then… what should we do?”
“Tomorrow the novice protection period will be lifted. I’m so worried that those undead souls will rush into my territory!”
Cao Xing didn’t reply because there was nothing he could do.
Moreover, there was no need for him to worry about the life and death of a stranger.
After a moment of silence, the other person came back with a message: “I understand…Thank you, Mr. Cao Xing, for replying to my message.”
“I’ll wait and see what happens tomorrow. Those undead still want me to help, so they probably won’t attack me.”
“If nothing happens tomorrow, I will contact Mr. Cao Xing, and then…then you can see if you can take the time to take me on this mission…”
“May I?”
Ji Xinyue had a good attitude and was not angry because Cao Xing refused her help.
You know, in a state of despair, people finally grasp the last straw.
However, the life-saving straw abandoned her, and she would collapse at this time.
Cao Xing thought for a moment and replied: “Okay, let me check the situation tomorrow. If I have time, I will go to your territory.”
After receiving Cao Xing’s reply, Ji Xinyue replied gratefully: “Thank you…Thank you, Mr. Cao Xing…”
The two hung up the private chat.
At this time, Cao Xing also fell into thinking.
To be honest, he was also very interested in the task of sinking the palace. After all, it was also related to the palace’s treasures.
You know, Cao Xing obtained an epic-level prop in the goblin treasure house and also obtained many precious gems.
The lost treasures of this kingdom must be no different.
We will see what happens tomorrow. If Ji Xinyue is not torn to pieces by those undead, then he will make a trip and complete this task by the way.
The team is still walking in the vast ice field.
Twenty minutes later, Cao Xing and the others came to a plain area.
Ahead, you can faintly see a large frozen lake.
It is a large lake in the true sense, with a water area of at least hundreds of kilometers, occupying a large area on the map.
And by the lake, there are still patches of woods covered by wind and snow, and you can’t tell what kind they are.
Several groups of figures can still be seen faintly on the frozen lake, which appear to be wandering wild creatures.
Cao Xing saw white-feathered chocobos, a group of wild sheep with thick hair, and beside the group of sheep, there were several direwolves waiting for an opportunity.
Cao Xing nodded secretly and said: “There are quite a lot of resources here, so many wild monsters.”
At this time, sharp-eyed Liu Muxue whispered: “Axing, there seems to be someone there.”
Looking in the direction she pointed, Cao Xing also saw a figure wearing gray cotton clothing on the ice.
He looked like an old man, wearing a fisherman’s hat, and his back looked a bit vicissitudes of life.
There was a small bench sitting under his butt, as if he was ice fishing.
“Good guy, there are really fishing guys everywhere!”
Cao Xing was happy and then scanned the entire ice surface.
Except for this fisherman, no other people were seen.
At that moment, he had an idea.
“Let’s go and find out about this fishing guy.”
After saying that, he approached the figure with his wife.
Boom! Boom!
Dabai opened his elephant legs and quickly stepped onto the lake.
However, even with its weight of several tons, it did not break even a single crack in the ice.
Suffice to say, the ice here is really thick.
At this moment, the figure looked a little old. After sensing the approach of Cao Xing and his group, he remained unmoved.
He took his fishing rod and threw it into the bottomless ice hole at his feet.
Cao Xing glanced at his message.
[Champion Fighter: Chinon Dutra]
[Affiliated force: Ice Crystal Kingdom]
【grade:? ? ? 】
【property:? ? ? 】
【Skill:? ? ? 】
【talent:? ? ? 】
[Relationship: cold]
…
Cao Xing’s pupils suddenly shrank! Good guy, except for his name, everything else is a question mark.
This shows that the level gap between the other party and yourself is at least 20 levels or more.
This is the strongest aboriginal he has ever encountered!
“Above level three?”
Cao Xing secretly became wary.
Fortunately, Cao Xing did not feel any hostility from this old man.
So, he let Liu Muxue continue to sit on Dabai’s back, while he jumped down and came to the old man’s side.
Cao Xing went straight to the point.
“Hello, old gentleman, have you seen a lady passing by here in the past two days?”
“She has been away from the village for a few days and her father was worried and asked us to come and look for this lady.”
Upon hearing this, the old man with unpredictable strength glanced at him lightly, and then continued to look at the fish float in front of him.
It was a bit embarrassing to leave Cao Xing where he was.
After about half a minute, Cao Xing took a look at the old man’s fishing process.
This ice cave is at least seven or eight meters deep and seems to be bottomless. However, after he has advanced to a second-level creature, his physical fitness has also improved a lot, and his eyesight has also been greatly enhanced.
Cao Xing could see that the old man’s fish float had not moved for a long time, and the small wooden barrel next to him was also empty.
Cao Xing was stunned. Is it true that the Diaoyutai Air Force is the norm?
Such a powerful NPC didn’t even catch a fish.
“Ahem…”
Cao Xing cleared his throat and asked: “Dear Sir Qinong, are you fishing?”
The old man heard Cao Xing call out his name and finally took a serious look.
“Yes, Your Excellency Qinong’s title of champion fighter can be heard throughout the stormy snowfield, and I have great respect for you.”
Cao Xing kept talking nonsense without a blushing face or a heartbeat.
In fact, he only knew this information by relying on the survivor’s own system.
However, the old man seemed to have no doubts. He shook his head and said: “What a champion fighter, that happened many years ago. Now, I am just an old man who has retired from the army.”
Then, Qinong said seriously: “Since you know me, I will answer your question.”
“I’m definitely fishing.”
The corner of Cao Xing’s mouth twitched. What he wanted to ask about was Elisa’s whereabouts, not this question.
But he still followed the old man’s words and said: “Sir Qinong, what kind of fish are you fishing for?”
The old man said calmly: “Salmon.”
“Luoxue Lake is rich in all kinds of salmon, including gray salmon, red salmon, silver salmon…”
“The meat of these salmon is fresh and tender. It is said that silver salmon even has the effect of lasting beauty. My wife likes the wild salmon from Luoxue Lake.”
“Alas…in order to satisfy her, I can only come here to fish in person.”
Hearing this, Cao Xing was happy, what a good man! When Qinong said this, he said with some regret: “Unfortunately, I am not very good at fishing, and my knowledge in this area is only hearsay. I have been fishing for several days and have not caught a single salmon.”
Cao Xing was thoughtful, and then asked: “Your Excellency Qinong, can you show me what kind of bait you are using?”
Qinong nodded and lifted the fishing rod up casually.
Cao Xing saw a fat worm hanging on the fishhook, half of which had been chewed off.
“This is a bug I dug up on the ground. There are no fishermen in the snowstorm field, so there is no research on this aspect.”
Cao Xing nodded. If you want to fish, good bait is naturally very important.
Then, Cao Xing took out a [Special Pet Ration] from his pocket.
“Your Excellency Qinong, try this and see if it has any effect.”
Cao Xing remembered that there was an introduction on the [Special Pet Ration], which was made from a mixture of offal from various animals and was very attractive to various creatures.
The fish in the water like these things with strong smells.
Qinong saw the small black meatballs in Cao Xing’s hand, which exuded a strong pungent smell.
Even a few nearby direwolves turned their gazes here.
But they were afraid of the breath of the people behind them and did not dare to get close for a while.
Qinong also understood the gold content of the black meatball in Cao Xing’s hand.
“I’ll try.”
Qinong didn’t hesitate, and directly hung the [Special Pet Ration] on the bait, and then dropped it into the ice hole.
Everyone waited silently.
A minute later, Qinong suddenly felt the fishing rod in his hand sink.
At this moment, there was strong joy in his slightly cloudy eyes!
“You fell for the bait so quickly?”
Qinong was pleasantly surprised, saw the opportunity, and then quickly raised his head.
A salmon with a silvery white light all over its body and nearly forty centimeters long was caught by him!
Qinon quickly put it into the bucket and said in surprise: “This is a silver salmon, weighing at least three kilograms and worth thirty thousand kronor!”
“Boy, we are rich this time!”
Cao Xing smiled, thirty thousand crowns was indeed a huge sum of money.
At the same time, a system prompt appears.
[You gave Chinon Dutra fishing bait, and the other person’s attitude towards you has changed. Current relationship: Strange]
From being cold to being unfamiliar, it’s okay.
Cao Xing looked at the silver salmon in the bucket.
【Silver Salmon: Magical Creature】
[Level: Level 6]
[Effect: Eating it after cooking can increase the life limit by 300 points and increase the population limit of the territory by 3 (can take effect up to 3 times). 】
Cao Xing was stunned.
Magical creatures? Can eating it increase the life limit and population limit?
Good guy! This was something he didn’t expect at all! It is estimated that even the aborigines of this world do not know that eating silver salmon can increase the population limit, because they have no concept of population at all.
It’s just that the increased vitality of silver salmon is mistaken for beauty.
Qinong saw the shock in Cao Xing’s eyes and chuckled: “The meat of silver salmon is very tender, and many nobles and landowners are willing to pay a lot of money to buy it.”
The old man said with some regret: “But it’s a pity that it’s not a golden salmon. The price of a three-pound golden salmon will be dozens of times higher!”
“And it is said that this Luoxue Lake also has the legendary King Salmon!”
Cao Xing’s curiosity was also aroused.
Silver salmon has such a powerful effect, so how magical are golden salmon and king salmon? “What are golden salmon and king salmon?”
Qinong explained: “Golden salmon contains strong vitality. Even an old man like me can use it to live for a few more years. It is rare to find it.”
“As for the king salmon, it’s a legendary creature, but it’s not meant to be eaten.”
“After catching the King Salmon, release it, and it will lead you to the treasure dropped at the bottom of the lake, the Lake Lady’s Sword – Arondette.”
“The Sword of the Lake Girl?” Cao Xing looked confused.
Qinon nodded, “This is a legendary weapon, and all the knights of the Ice Crystal Kingdom want to get it.”
“It is said that knights who can be recognized by the Sword of the Lake Lady will become the strongest knights in the Ice Crystal Kingdom!”
Upon hearing about the legendary weapons, Cao Xing suddenly became more interested.
You know, he has two epic-level props in his hands, both of which have extremely magical effects.
A more advanced legendary item is also a weapon and must have great power!
Qinong actually said that there was a legendary holy sword in this lake. How could this not make Cao Xing excited?
This is important information, the kind that is worth a thousand dollars!
Having said this, Qinong shook his head with regret and said, “However, no one has ever seen with their own eyes who can catch a king salmon. The so-called Lake Lady’s Sword has really become a legend.”
Hearing this, Cao Xing asked doubtfully: “Oh? No one has seen it with their own eyes, so this legend can’t be false, right?”
Qinong was silent for a moment, and then said slowly: “It’s true. A certain powerful warrior from the Ice Crystal Kingdom once owned this weapon, and he is one of my best friends.”
Cao Xing’s pupils suddenly shrank, with a look in his eyes, “You mean, this legendary weapon is in the hands of your friend?”
Qinon shook his head, “It was there before, but then he died, and the weapon sank to the bottom of the lake again.”
“On the night he was about to die, he seemed to have a premonition of something and told me an unknown piece of news.”
“He said that to catch king salmon, you need an extremely rare and special bait.”
Cao Xing was completely intrigued by him and continued to ask: “What kind of bait is it?”
Qinon thought for a moment and seemed to hesitate.
Then, he looked at the silver salmon in the bucket and sighed: “That’s all, I’ll tell you for the sake of helping me catch a silver salmon.”
“To catch a king salmon, you need the tongue of the snow devil…”
