Chapter 11 The first night, greedy people
Of course what Cao Xing said is false. The skill [Ice Armor] is one of the basic skills of the mage in the early stage. Although it is relatively useless, it is also valuable.
Cao Xing replied directly: “Believe it or not.”
After hearing this, Meloser said helplessly: “Forget it, just 3 pieces of snake meat. Eat sparingly, it will be enough for my family to survive for another day.”
After hearing the last sentence, Cao Xing’s eyes moved slightly.
After thinking for a moment, he sent a message: “Let’s do this, you change it to 20 food items, and I will provide 5 more breads.”
Meloser on the opposite side was stunned for a moment, but still said: “Okay.”
Cao Xing: “Then you go directly to the market to modify the transaction information, and I will take a photo of it right away.”
Soon, the price of the skill book on the market became [Food]*20. Cao Xing took a photo of it.
[The transaction is successful, you get the ice armor skill book*1, you lose the fresh snake meat*3, and you lose the bread*5.]
[Ice Armor Technique: Consume a certain amount of mental energy to improve the armor of yourself or your friend (mental energy*0.6). The effect lasts for 30 seconds and the cooling time is 60 seconds. 】
Cao Xing’s eyes were filled with joy, this is it.
My current mental strength is 5, plus the blessing of [Believer’s Cane], it is 8 points of mental strength.
In other words, Cao Xing can permanently increase his armor value by 5 points! He clicked study directly.
[Successfully learned [Ice Armor Technique]…] After the system prompt ended, Cao Xing was secretly happy.
Then, he took the lead in releasing the Ice Armor Technique on himself.
“Stacked armor! Pass!”
[The release of [Ice Armor] is successful, the armor is +5, the talent [Eternal Power] takes effect, and this skill has become permanent. ] The next moment, Cao Xing felt an invisible layer of frost armor wrapping himself.
A sense of security surged into my heart.
The effect of [Ice Armor] is similar to that of [Scale Armor]. They are both invisible defense methods that will only appear when attacked.
Now that his armor has reached 15 points, attacks from monsters below level 3 cannot even cause damage to him!
To put it simply, it means not breaking the defense!
Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction.
After waiting for 60 seconds, Cao Xing added another layer of ice armor to Liu Muxue.
As the human shield in the team, of course her defense should be as high as possible.
At this moment, the two of them were in the same room.
Liu Muxue also learned about the current situation of other survivors through the chat channel.
Now she understands that not everyone is like her and has lived in the warm lord’s cabin.
More survivors are still living a life of hunger and cold.
If she hadn’t been with Cao Xing, then she, Liu Muxue, would probably have suffered the same thing, or even worse.
Then at night, experience the bitterly cold hell of ice and snow.
Liu Muxue looked at Cao Xing with gratitude in her eyes, “Thank you, Axing. If it weren’t for you, I might have frozen to death outside.”
Cao Xing shook his head and said: “It’s okay, sister-in-law, since the two of us are assigned to a group, we must cooperate with each other to survive better in this world.”
“When I help you, I’m also helping myself.”
Liu Muxue nodded solemnly, “I will adapt to this world as soon as possible and won’t hold you back!”
Cao Xing nodded.
Then, the two fell into a state of relative silence.
The atmosphere seemed a bit awkward.
At this time, Liu Muxue didn’t know what she thought of, her face suddenly turned red, and her body was trembling slightly.
After a while, she took off her snow boots and retreated to the small wooden bed.
Liu Muxue was wrapped in a wolf fur coat and buried her red head deeply, leaving only a pair of pink feet exposed.
And between the two of them, there was a warm stove.
After a while, Cao Xing said: “Go to sleep, sister-in-law.”
…
…
At night.
The coals in the stove are burning brightly.
Through the lord’s cabin, you can hear the sound of wind coming from outside.
At this time, both of them were wrapped in wolf skins and used as quilts to cover themselves.
Liu Muxue looked at Cao Xing’s back and didn’t know what she was thinking.
At this moment, Liu Muxue received a video call.
I saw the name of the caller, Bi Yunlan.
It’s her mother.
A trace of solemnity flashed across Liu Muxue’s face.
After thinking for a moment, she clicked answer.
“Xiaoxue, how are you doing over there?”
As soon as the video was connected, a woman’s voice came from the other side.
Liu Muxue was a little surprised that the other party actually cared about her.
However, before Liu Muxue could speak, Bi Yunlan on the opposite side continued: “Hey, Xiaoxue! Our family suddenly came to this world. What a bad luck!”
“You don’t know, your two brothers, me, and your father are in such a miserable state!”
“There is only so much food in that box, which is not enough for the big baby and the little baby.”
“The food is almost gone now. Your father and I didn’t eat anything at night. We are cold and hungry.”
A wry smile appeared at the corner of Liu Muxue’s mouth.
Is this really still the case? Before he said a word, his true nature was revealed.
He didn’t care about his own life or death and just asked her for food.
Liu Muxue remembered that it seemed to be the same on Blue Star before.
They have always been subject to strict requirements. All their income is controlled by them, and they even have to intervene in their own lives.
So in the end, she was forced to marry the man she hated.
Liu Muxue took a deep breath and seemed to muster some courage.
She shook her head and said, “Mom, I don’t have any extra food.”
After hearing this, Mrs. Liu on the other side suddenly wondered: “Is there really nothing left? Xiaoxue, your two brothers have been hungry all day!”
“You know, both the big and little babies are very good eaters. They used to eat four or five meals a day, but now in this world, they only eat one meal. Your dad and I only ate half a piece of bread.”
As Liu Mu spoke, her eyes were still looking around, as if she was checking the situation on Liu Muxue’s side.
Liu Muxue said firmly: “No more.”
At this moment, another middle-aged man appeared in the video screen.
He looked at Liu Muxue’s background and wondered, “Xiaoxue, are you lying to us?”
“You’ve already moved into the house and you still say you don’t have food?”
“Also, where did you get the fur you’re wearing?”
The voices of two children sounded next to them. They pointed at the picture and said, “Mom and Dad, I know the fur on my sister’s body. It’s wolf fur!”
“Sister has already killed the wolf, there is meat there!”
After hearing this, Mother Liu immediately said angrily: “Okay, you are a murderer of thousands of swords, but you still dare to lie to your mother!”
“You don’t want to share meat with your family, do you? You white-eyed wolf, I raised you in vain!”
At this moment, Liu’s father was also making accusations, and there were also the noises of two children beside him.
“Xiaoxue, what do you want to do? Your mother and I are starving to death, and you are not willing to share any food. Is your conscience eaten by a dog?”
Faced with the accusations from her family, Liu Muxue bit her lower lip lightly, with tears in her eyes, and seemed a little at a loss for a moment.
Mother Liu on the opposite side became even more serious, “Are you still wronged?”
“We’ve been hungry all day and we haven’t suffered any grievances. Liu Muxue, I think your wings are really hard!”
Liu Muxue’s eyes were red and she was about to cry.
At this moment, a figure squeezed into the screen.
“Two old guys, what are the dogs barking at?”
Hearing the curse, the voice on the other side suddenly fell silent.
Then, they saw a young man appearing next to Liu Muxue.
Liu’s father saw the scene of Cao Xing and asked, “Xiaoxue, who are you staying with? Who is this man?”
Before Liu Muxue could speak, Cao Xing was the first to reply: “You don’t need to know who I am.”
“If you want food, go find it in the snow yourself.”
The middle-aged man opposite listened and said, “I’m talking to my daughter, who have you to interrupt?”
Cao Xing smiled and said, “What qualifications do I have?”
“Just because I killed the wolf, the meat is also mine, how about that?”
The middle-aged man said angrily: “Then I don’t want it from you, I want it from Xiaoxue, she is my daughter!”
Cao Xing sneered: “You don’t have to ask her for it. I keep the food. As long as I’m here, I won’t give you a crumb.”
“You have hands and feet yourself, but you don’t know how to get food with your hands. How shameless do you come to your daughter to suck blood?”
“you!”
“What are you? You’re so old and you’re still stalking me with a shy face. You’re not even as good as a woman. You’re a piece of trash.”
After Cao Xing cursed loudly, the middle-aged man opposite him turned red from suppressing his emotions.
Next to them, the cries of two children also sounded.
Mother Liu on the side seemed to want to help her husband and attacked Cao Xing with words.
However, at Cao Xing’s signal, Liu Muxue directly hung up the video call.
beep–
The world suddenly became quiet.
Liu Muxue huddled on the bed, her shoulders shaking constantly, as if she couldn’t control her emotions.
A slight sob could be heard in Cao Xing’s ear.
After a while, wait until the sobbing stops.
Cao Xing comforted: “It’s okay, sister-in-law.”
Liu Muxue raised her head, looked at Cao Xing gratefully with red and swollen eyes and said, “Axing, thank you for helping me out.”
Cao Xing shook his head and said: “It’s okay, these guys want to get something for nothing and take supplies from me, no way!”
“You must also remember that no matter who asks you for food or other resources, you must not give them to them.”
“After the first time, there will be a second time. They will ask for it endlessly later, do you understand?”
After hearing this, Liu Muxue felt a trace of bitterness flash in her eyes.
