An arrow shot towards them at extremely fast speed.
One of the safari scouts was about to duck, but found that the arrow had hit his shoulder.
Suddenly he let out a scream! “ah!”
at the same time.
A [-2672! appeared above his head! ] damage figures.
The safari scout instantly exclaimed.
“Damn it! We’ve been discovered!”
“Let’s go!”
However, at this moment, the second arrow had been shot.
call out! 【-2744! 】
An equally exaggerated damage figure appeared, and another Ranger scout was forced out.
They all had puzzled looks in their eyes.
“Damn it! How were we exposed?”
“And who is attacking us? Isn’t the speed of this arrow too fast?”
What they didn’t know was that the one who launched the attack was Rhaenys who had been on duty for the entire night.
Her [Hunting Eye] can see through hidden existences.
So I saw the two sneaky people standing on the city wall at a glance.
At the same time, the stealth status of the two Ranger scouts was broken.
The elemental arrow towers and frost arrow towers in the entire territory also discovered the enemy and quickly began targeting attacks.
“Whoosh! Whoosh!”
There was a sound of arrows piercing the air.
Assam and others also discovered the fighting. He instantly pulled out the king’s war blade and shouted: “There are enemies!”
“Everyone, alert!”
At the same time, Cao Xing and Liu Muxue, who were sleeping, were instantly awakened by the fighting outside.
The two looked at each other.
A trace of doubt flashed in Cao Xing’s heart.
“Huh? A target approached the territory, triggering a counterattack by Assam and others?”
“Is it an ice nest monster? Or a beast in the snow?”
And when he saw the battle information, his pupils suddenly shrank.
[Your territory member: Renice Hawkeye caused 2672 points of damage to Ranger Scout lv28. 】
[Your territory member: Renice Hawkeye caused 2744 points of damage to Ranger Scout lv27. 】
[Your territory building: The intermediate elemental arrow tower caused 481 points of damage to Ranger Scout lv28. 】
……
“Damn it! It’s a safari!”
Hearing Cao Xing’s voice, Liu Muxue also realized the seriousness of the matter.
The two quickly got dressed as quickly as possible, and then rushed out of the lord’s cabin.
As soon as he came out, he saw Rhaenys on the city wall, fighting two black figures in close combat.
However, as an archer, she is not good at such head-on combat.
The two black shadows quickly escaped from Rhaenys’s hands, and then jumped off the city wall, seeming to want to escape.
Cao Xing quickly rushed over and shouted: “Stop them, we must not let these two guys run away!”
At this moment, Assam had jumped out of the city wall, holding the King’s War Blade, and was frantically pursuing these hunters! However, a black shadow moved faster than him.
It was Sarah.
This dark elf assassin showed unparalleled speed at this moment.
Like an invisible wind, he quickly came to the city wall, then kicked his feet and jumped directly over.
Then, Cao Xing’s ears rang ‘Ding! There was a clanking sound of metal and the screams of the safari scouts.
Cao Xing and Liu Muxue looked at each other and said, “Let’s go there quickly!”
The two quickly arrived at the city wall.
Then he saw Sarah frantically attacking the two Ranger scouts, holding them back.
Rhaenys and Assam were also rushing there.
After seeing this, Cao Xing breathed a sigh of relief.
Because the opponent targeted by Sarah has no possibility of escaping from her as long as the level is not too much higher than Sarah’s.
Cao Xing also quickly glanced at the attributes of the two hunters.
【Safari Scout】
[Level: Level 27 (Level 3 Elite)]
[HP: 7621/14230]
[Attack power: 1165~1193]
[Skills: Sneaking, smoke bombs, oiling soles of feet]
[Talent: None]
…
【Safari Scout】
[Level: Level 28 (Level 3 Elite)]
[HP: 7442/15120]
[Attack power: 1187~1205]
[Skills: Stealth, Smoke Bomb, Swift Cutting]
[Talent: None]
…
Cao Xing breathed a sigh of relief, it was just two third-level elites.
Moreover, their blood volume has been suppressed to less than half by Sarah and Renes.
At this moment, a series of doubts quickly flashed through Cao Xing’s mind.
Why do these safari hunters sneak into their territory in the middle of the night? Could it be that the fact that he killed the white-robed priest in the Witch Forest today was exposed?
Also, how was his position exposed? Could it be that the Church of Light already knew that I was against them and wanted to get rid of me?
More and more doubts arise in my mind.
Seeing the health of the two Ranger scouts being slashed lower and lower by Sarah.
Cao Xing shook his head and put these thoughts aside.
Then, he quickly ordered: “Assam, Renes, go over and hold these two safari scouts.”
“Sarah, don’t kill them, just beat them half to death.”
After receiving Cao Xing’s order, Sarah stopped attacking and just continued to use the Shadow Blade to disarm them.
After all, her attack was too high, and she could kill the two Ranger scouts on the spot if she wasn’t careful.
At the same time, Assam and Rhaenys had also arrived.
Uh-huh! Swish!
The king’s war blade swept across with golden sword energy.
【-1874】
【-1854】
【-1923】
【-1891】
High damage numbers appeared one after another, and the two Ranger scouts were suppressed by Cao Xing’s three generals.
After a while, their legs were chopped to pieces by Assam, and they fell directly onto the snow.
Cao Xing and Liu Muxue had already arrived beside the two safari scouts.
I took a look at the status of these two guys.
[Status: Bleeding, dying, fractured…]
The two of them seemed to be trying to struggle, but Assam knocked them unconscious with a sword blow.
Cao Xing nodded, “Very good, they won’t be able to run away now.”
Then, he took out two more [ancient vines] from his backpack, looked at Assam and said.
“Tie these two guys up!”
After hearing Cao Xing’s order, Assam directly used ancient vines to tie up the two safari scouts! Then, Cao Xing quickly ordered: “Sarah, follow the route of these two scouts and quickly conduct counter-reconnaissance back!”
“By the way, remember to erase all footprints when you come back.”
Cao Xing wanted to confirm what was going on.
How did these hunters discover his territory, and whether they were exposed.
Only in this way can he make countermeasures.
After receiving Cao Xing’s order, Sarah did not hesitate at all and quickly followed the route of the two safari men in the snow and walked into the vast wind and snow.
She knew she had to move quickly.
There is still light snow falling in the sky, and soon the traces on the snow will be covered up.
After a while, Sarah disappeared from Cao Xing’s sight.
Cao Xing also worked with Assam to bring the two dying safari scouts back to the territory.
at the same time.
Andrew, Bronn, Hilda and others were also awakened by the sound of fighting.
Including little Elisa, Ellie also quickly got out of the lord’s hut and looked at the outside world with a wary look.
These combatants maintain a strong sense of vigilance.
After seeing the two hunter scouts tied up on the back of the frost wolf, everyone frowned.
Cao Xing said: “Don’t be nervous, I have asked Sarah to go out to investigate.”
“Assam, continue to lock these two guys into another basement, and then let Rab and the others interrogate them.”
“By the way, let’s talk to Rab and the others.”
“Some extreme measures can be used to get them to speak as quickly as possible.”
Cao Xing quickly issued a series of instructions.
“As you command! Lord Lord!”
After Assam finished speaking, he dragged the two dying safari scouts down.
…
In the second half of the night, Cao Xing and others remained vigilant.
Even little Elisa and Ellie were completely sleepless and insisted that they would stay overnight.
Cao Xing didn’t say much. After all, with their current physiques, a night without rest would not have any impact.
Time passes quietly…
Cao Xing quietly waited for Sarah to return.
During this period, ice nests fell down two or three times.
But because Cao Xing is currently focusing on the organization of the Church of Light, he has no time to worry about these Ice Nest monsters.
Directly let Renes shoot these ice nests from a distance.
It was almost two or three in the morning.
A figure climbed over the city wall silently and appeared in front of Cao Xing.
It was Sarah.
Cao Xing had a look of joy in his eyes and walked over quickly.
Sarah came to Cao Xing, knelt down on one knee, and reported quickly.
“Back to Lord, according to your instructions, I followed the footprints of these hunters for more than ten kilometers until the footprints completely disappeared next to a large rift valley.”
After hearing this, Cao Xing thought quickly based on the information provided by Sarah.
These hunters are looking for something.
Now it seems that he should be looking for himself.
However, they were not sure of their position, so they observed each survivor territory.
Thinking of this, Cao Xing finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Because this shows that they have not been completely exposed yet!
At least, the two safari scouts have not sent back the news, and the other safari scouts do not know their location.
This gives Cao Xing a lot of room for maneuver.
Thinking of this, Cao Xing said: “Okay, let’s all go and rest. Just leave two people on duty.”
Little Elisa was about to say that she would continue to be on duty.
But Cao Xing said seriously: “This is also an order.”
After hearing this, everyone said nothing more.
After all, in this territory, Cao Xing’s orders are everything.
They gradually dispersed.
Hilda and Ilena were left on guard, along with a group of Ascalonian soldiers.
Cao Xing also returned to the lord’s cabin with Liu Muxue.
They continued to sleep for several hours.
And because of Cao Xing’s signal.
Rab, Rafael and other wild boar warriors began to divert their firepower and began to torture the two safari scouts to extract confessions!
In the basement, the screams of the safari continued throughout the night.
…
The next day…
A system prompt appears.
[Attention survivors, you have passed the fourth day of the official period. The power of the dragon is gradually recovering. The monsters hatched in the ice nest are about to break through the second level. Please speed up the development progress.
[Weather forecast: The wind and snow have stopped today. It is suitable to go out and develop your territory. Please pay attention to the snow on the ground…]
After seeing the prompt, the two opened their eyes at the same time.
Cao Xing thought: “Is the Ice Nest Monster about to break through the second level?”
The first to second level is a watershed. After all, a 100% increase in all attributes is no joke.
Cao Xing took a look and found that the survivors in Area 174 were now between level 7 and 11, and only a small number of them had broken through the second level.
If those low-level survivors don’t speed up to catch up, it may be more difficult to deal with them.
However, with the [Dragon Store] here, they can redeem the Heart of Primary Power at any time, so it is relatively easy to break through.
However, these are not things that Cao Xing has to worry about.
What he is more worried about is the threat from the Church of Light.
“Get up, Muxue, let’s go see those safari hunters.”
Liu Muxue nodded lightly.
The two simply washed up and quickly walked out of the lord’s cabin.
Arriving outside the lord’s hut, Cao Xing ordered Cao Yi, Dazhuang and others to continue mining resources and sorting ore as they did yesterday.
As for Duan, the polar man, let him continue to upgrade various buildings.
After arranging the staff, Cao Xing and the others went straight to one of the basements.
Cao Xing asked Da Zhuang and the others to dig several basements under the territory, which were originally intended to store food and drinks.
As a result, now, it seems to have become his dungeon.
…
In the dim basement, Cao Xing saw four figures.
Two of them are wild boar warriors, and the other two are safari scouts captured last night.
At this moment, the wild boar warriors stared with bloodshot eyes.
After seeing Cao Xing coming, they said respectfully: “Good morning, Lord Lord, and good morning, Lady Lord.”
Cao Xing nodded, then looked at the scene in the basement.
Two dying Ranger scouts were lying on the ground.
There was also a lot of blood nearby.
It was obvious that they suffered a lot last night, and there were stab wounds all over their bodies.
This scene even made Liu Muxue next to her frown slightly.
But she didn’t think much about it, because she knew that if the two safari scouts were not allowed to speak, the security of their territory would be threatened.
Cao Xing asked: “How about it? These two guys still refuse to talk?”
Rab replied: “Yes, Lord, they are all very tough-talking and have been severely brainwashed.”
Cao Xing did not speak, but came directly to one of the Ranger scouts and took off the mask on his face, revealing the face of a middle-aged man.
“Tell me, who asked you to come over and invade my territory?”
“If you answer well, I might spare your lives.”
However, the safari scout looked at Cao Xing with bloodshot eyes and said crazily: “You heretics, don’t let me say anything!”
“Just wait for me, the will of the God of Light is about to come, and you will all be liquidated!”
Rab said next to him: “Lord, these guys are like this. Their minds are full of their God of Light and they don’t want to say anything.”
Cao Xing nodded, and after trying again, he found that there was really no way to pry open this guy’s mouth.
For a while, I was at a loss.
He was wondering if there was any way to get these fanatical cultists to talk.
But at this moment, Cao Xing suddenly had a flash of inspiration! A beautiful image appeared in his mind.
He remembered that the new member Isabel had a skill called [Repentance].
It can make a being who is about to have a mental breakdown repent and control the other person’s thoughts.
I wonder, can [Confession] pry open the mouth of the safari?
Cao Xing decided to give it a try, so he looked at Liu Muxue.
“Muxue, you don’t have to stay here anymore, go help me call Isabel over.”
Hearing this, Liu Muxue also nodded and quickly left the basement.
After a while, Isabel, wearing a long white gauze dress and exuding holy light, walked down.
Seeing the scene in the basement, Isabel also frowned slightly.
“Lord…we should not use such cruel methods on prisoners…”
But Cao Xing shook his head and said: “Isabel, if I tell you, these people are not good people, they are some cultists.”
“Is it an organization of the same nature as the Dark Order of your time?”
Since Cao Xing has read her character introduction, he also roughly knows Isabel’s life experience.
Upon hearing the words [Dark Order], this woman who was as holy as a goddess suddenly changed her expression.
Her pupils gradually turned to blood color, and her body exuded a terrifying murderous intent! Not only that, even the power of holy light in her body gradually disappeared, and Cao Xing even saw bursts of dark aura in her body…
Isabel’s aura was increasing rapidly, even approaching the level of Duke Palatine.
The two wild boar warriors on the field were stunned by Isabel’s sudden burst of breath! “Huh? What’s going on?” Cao Xing was surprised.
At the same time, he quickly glanced at Isabel’s panel.
[Dark Witch: Isabel Magic Sound]
【grade:? ? ? 】
【property:? ? ? 】
【Skill:? ? ? 】
【talent:? ? ? 】
…
“Guigui…the holy light priest turned into the dark witch?” Cao Xing was surprised.
At this moment, Isabel quickly returned to her original appearance.
The dark aura on her body dissipated, and the power of holy light also appeared on her body.
Then, she looked at Cao Xing with an apologetic look: “Lord, please forgive me for my gaffe. Isabel expresses my sincere apology to you!”
Cao Xing waved his hand, but didn’t care.
Through the scene just now, he seemed to have discovered the secret of his new member.
However, Cao Xing didn’t say much. The most important thing now was to get the Ranger Scout to speak.
The secrets of Isabel can be slowly and deeply understood later.
At this time, Isabel looked at the two safari scouts on the ground and said, “Lord, you are doing the right thing.”
“There is no need to show any mercy to such crazy cultists. They are just a group of sinful lunatics!”
Cao Xing nodded, “You are right, Isabel.”
“And this is why I called you here.”
“They seemed to want to do something bad to us, but I couldn’t get them to talk.”
“I know you have a confession technique, so I want you to try it.”
At this moment, Isabel also understood what Cao Xing meant.
She said solemnly: “I understand, Lord.”
“However, the success rate of the confession technique is not high, but these two cultists seem to be on the verge of collapse, so we can give it a try.”
Cao Xing was immediately happy after hearing this, “Very good, let’s get started!”
After hearing this, Isabel didn’t hesitate at all.
She raised her staff and began to chant: “God said that there was darkness in your heart, and it was revealed by the light…”
“O you who are full of sin, remember whence you fell, and repent and do the works you did at first…”
As Isabel chanted, a ball of holy light appeared on her staff.
The two safari scouts fell to the ground and gritted their teeth: “Hmph! Don’t even think of asking for any information from us!”
“The high priest will definitely come to save us!”
However, Isabel paid no attention.
A ray of light fell into the head of one of the Ranger scouts.
There was a look of struggle in his eyes, as if he was trying his best to fight against something.
It didn’t take long for the blood in the safari scout’s eyes to disappear, and he gradually became confused.
He shook his head, his eyes becoming confused.
The next moment, the safari scout slowly knelt in front of Isabel, put his head on the ground, and said piously.
“I’m guilty…”
“The God of Light is nothingness, and I have been committing murders for this nothingness of faith…”
“My sins are heavy…”
This scene immediately stunned everyone present.
Even the wild boar warrior on the side looked at Isabel with fear in his eyes.
I’m going! It directly caused some fanatical cultists to change their beliefs. This [Repentance Technique] is too terrifying!
