"roar!!"
Andrew let out a terrifying roar, which slowed down the attacks of the Soul Eaters.
Hilda, Renee and the others were far away, and various attacks kept coming down, with the movements so fast that afterimages appeared.
Cao Xing was condensing various magics for output while quickly observing the entire battlefield.
Two minutes later.
Fifteen Soul Eaters have fallen at the door.
Just after Cao Xing released a round of ice arrow rain, he suddenly felt a stabbing pain in his brain!
Cao Xing immediately realized his condition, "Have I overdrawn my mental strength?"
He did not panic, but quickly took out a drop of [Moonlight Dew] from his backpack and swallowed it.
The next moment, he only felt a cool feeling passing through his brain.
The painful feeling was suppressed instantly.
"Yes, this thing works really well."
Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction and began to condense the second wave of spell attacks!
At the same time, after more than two minutes of defensive battle.
There are still more than twenty Soul Eaters in the hall.
I glanced at the health of the three melee fighters.
The blood volume is already somewhat unhealthy, fluctuating between 40% and 60%.
If this continues, their recovery speed will not be able to keep up with the speed at which their health is decreasing.
After all, Cao Xing's men have amazing survivability.
But you have to know that they are fighting across more than ten levels, with a large class in between.
If it were any other boss of the same level, even the chief, he wouldn't be able to hold on by now!
Liu Muxue on the side also saw the current situation of the team.
She took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Ah Xing, I'll go over too."
Before Cao Xing could speak, Liu Muxue continued, "Ah Xing, I think I can do it."
"I now have over 3,000 HP and over 200 armor points. With my holy shield, I should be able to hold off the Soul Eater for about 20 seconds."
"Although it won't last long, it will at least relieve the pressure on others."
Liu Muxue finished speaking in one breath.
Cao Xing was stunned for a moment, and then a look of relief appeared in his eyes.
After these days of fighting, Liu Muxue has grown up and knows how to analyze the data of both sides and judge the situation.
Cao Xing nodded and said, "Go ahead, be careful."
"Yeah!" Liu Muxue said excitedly.
Then she quickly raised her shield and rushed forward.
Cao Xing looked at Braum, who had the lowest HP, and ordered, "Braum, retreat and recover."
Bron obeyed the order without hesitation.
And a gap appeared in the area where he was.
The Soul Eater was about to rush out.
At this moment, a beautiful figure rushed forward with a shield raised.
Bang!
A heavy sound!
The soul-eating monster was knocked back by Liu Muxue's [Shield Bash].
At the same time, other Soul Eaters also launched attacks.
Swish!
A sharp claw swept across.
But it did not cause any harm to Liu Muxue because it was offset by the holy shield on her body.
Swish! Swish!
Two more attacks appeared, directly destroying all the holy shields on Liu Muxue's body.
And just when the Soul Eater's fourth claw attack fell.
Liu Muxue seized the opportunity and directly used the skill [Shield Counter].
Bang!
【-115】
A slight injury appeared on Liu Muxue's body.
The shield counter was successful!
Eater of Souls' damage has been significantly reduced.
Cao Xing couldn't help but give Liu Muxue a thumbs up.
"Mu Xue, that's awesome!"
This fighting spirit is already very good.
You know, depending on the enemy's attack speed, the shield counter only has a reaction time of a few tenths of a second.
It was really amazing that Liu Muxue was able to react in such a short time and successfully block the enemy's attack.
After receiving Cao Xing's praise, Liu Muxue also smiled.
At the same time, I gradually breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, there was no mistake..." Liu Muxue thought secretly.
With her joining, the defensive pressure at the goal was greatly reduced.
As for Ji Xinyue, she also wanted to go up and help.
But she was only a level 6 warrior, let alone fighting against those soul-eating monsters, who could tear her to pieces with just one claw.
Another three minutes later.
Most of the Soul Eaters at the door had been killed.
There were only five or six ordinary Soul Eaters left attacking everyone.
During these three minutes, a white light appeared on Andrew, Hilda, and Liu Muxue.
System prompts keep appearing.
[Your territory member: Andrew's level has been upgraded, current level: Level 17]
[Your territory member: Hilda's level has been upgraded, current level: Level 11]
[The level of your territory's subordinate lord: Liu Muxue has been upgraded, current level: Level 11]
…
Cao Xing was delighted.
There were more than forty Soul-Eating Monsters at the door, providing them with tens of thousands of experience points!
Including his own level, which will be upgraded to level 12 immediately!
At this time, Cao Xing glanced at the battle situation in the hall.
At this moment, Sarah was fighting three level three Soul Eaters alone, and she was doing it with ease.
And from time to time he would chop it off with a knife.
【-2531】
【-3374! 】
Horrifying damage numbers appeared one after another, and the health of these three soul-eaters dropped significantly.
At this moment, the health of one of the Soul Eater Stealths, which had 17,000, had been reduced to less than 3,000 by Sarah.
Seeing the right opportunity, Sarah threw out a [Deadly Dagger].
puff!
【-3104】
The Soul Eater Lurker's health was reduced to zero and it died on the spot.
[Your territory member: Sarah Blade Dance killed Soul Eater Lurker lv27, a third-level elite creature, and gained experience points: 2160]
[Experience points gained by combatants: 1080]
…
Seeing this scene, Cao Xing breathed a sigh of relief.
Since then, the battlefields on both sides have almost stabilized.
He gave the order directly: "Quick and decisive, let's go support Sarah!"
Upon hearing the order, everyone accelerated their attack again.
One minute later.
The last five Soul Eaters were killed at the gate.
"Go help Sarah!"
As soon as he finished speaking, all the fighters swarmed into the hall.
The Soul Eater Ripper and Soul Eater Howler, who were being suppressed by Sarah, suddenly felt a sense of pressure when they saw so many creatures rushing towards them.
Before they could prepare to fight back.
Renes and Hilda's attacks fell.
“Squeak!”
The blood poison fell on the Soul Eater, and it emitted a series of burning sounds again.
At the same time, Hilda flicked her belly and a red spider web sprayed out, controlling one of the elite soul-eaters.
Seeing this, Cao Xing gave the order, "Focus your fire and kill that elite soul-eating monster instantly."
He also condensed the [Big Ice Spear] once again, staring at the health of the Soul Eater, preparing to launch the final attack.
【-478! 】
【-174】
【-155】
【-231】
The injury numbers are rising one by one.
“Hiss! Hiss!”
The elite Soul Eater struggled hard, as if trying to tear Hilda's web apart.
However, even though there was a huge level gap between Hilda and the Soul Eater, it could still at least cause a second or two of control time.
Cao Xing noticed that when the Soul Eater's health was only a little bit left, he directly dropped the huge ice spear.
puff!
【-143】
The health of the Elite Soul Eater is reduced to zero.
[Successfully killed: Soul Devourer Howler lv25, a third-level elite creature, killed a monster above its level, gained experience value 2000*200%, gained experience value: 4000]
[Experience points gained by combatants: 1000 (combatants do not share experience points gained by killing monsters above their level)]
A full 4,000 experience points.
A white light also rose from Cao Xing's body.
[Your level has been upgraded, current level: Level 12]
[Attributes improved from this upgrade: Strength +4, Agility +3, Spirit +8, Constitution +5]
…
Cao Xing nodded. "Sure enough, after the second level, the attribute improvement gained with each upgrade is greater than that of the first level."
Now, there is only one Soul Eater boss left on the field.
After being besieged by the crowd, there was no chance of struggle at all.
Three minutes later.
The Soul Eater boss's health is reduced to zero.
This time Cao Xing didn't get the kill.
Sarah cut it off with one blow, ending its life.
[Your territory member: Sarah Blade Dance killed Soul Eater Ripper lv28, a third-level boss creature, and gained experience points: 2800]
[Experience points gained by combatants: 1400 points]
[Sarah Blade Dancer's level has been upgraded, current level: Level 21]
…
"Sarah has also been upgraded."
Cao Xing's face showed joy again.
At the same time, he felt that there were suddenly a lot of crawling sounds coming from the deep passage.
Their fight seemed to attract the attention of many Soul Eaters.
So Cao Xing gave the order: "Clean up the battlefield, everyone, hurry up."
After saying this, all the recruited creatures began to search everywhere.
Cao Xing went to the place where the two elites and the leader Soul-Eating Monster died and picked up all the things they dropped.
[Obtain the soul of the Soul Eater Roaring Elite*1]
[Obtain the Soul Eater Lurker Elite Soul*1]
[Get Sharp Claw (Blue)*4]
[Obtain evil spirit dust (white) * 32]
[Obtain a Medium Power Book*1]
[Obtain a Medium-sized Book of Agility*1]
…
Two elite Soul Eaters dropped two souls and a blue-quality claw, which is pretty good.
Cao Xing continued to come to the place where the leader Soul Eater died, and many items appeared there.
Cao Xing saw a bright soul and a pair of large claws half a meter long that could be used as weapons.
Put it all away.
[Obtain the Soul Eater Ripper's boss soul*1]
[Get a large hook (purple)*2]
[Obtain evil spirit dust (white) * 34]
【Obtain a Large Book of Power*1】
…
Boss-level souls! And purple quality materials!
Cao Xing's eyes lit up instantly, and then he began to check the properties of these three souls.
[Elite Soul of the Soul Eater Roarer: A powerful soul that can hear the roars in waves]
(Can be used on a common recruited creature of level 3 or below, making it evolve into an elite creature with a high probability, with a success rate of 40%~70%)
…
[Soul Eater Lurker Elite Soul: A powerful soul that emits a shadowy aura]
(Attributes and success probability are the same as above)
…
[The Soul Devourer Ripper's boss soul: a powerful soul with tearing power]
(Can be used on an elite creature of level 3 or below, making it evolve into a boss-level creature with a high probability, with a success rate of 35%~60%)
…
When Cao Xing saw the attributes of these three souls, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes!
"Great! The success rate is very high. At least one of the three souls can break through, or two or three can break through!"
"Whether it's breaking through the elite or the elite breaking through the boss, it's a huge improvement."
"These three souls can make my subordinates' strength soar!"
Currently, Cao Xing has only one ordinary creature, Braum, but he has two elite creatures, Andrew and Reneese.
Therefore, there are not enough boss-level souls.
After thinking for a while, Cao Xing already had a candidate.
"Brown, Andrew, come here."
After receiving Cao Xing's instructions.
Bald-headed Bron and Andrew came over one after another.
At this time, Cao Xing directly threw the [Elite Soul of the Soul Eater Howler] to Braum.
He also threw the [Soul of the Ripper's Leader] to Andrew.
"Use it. I hope you can break through successfully and gain even greater power!"
There was excitement in the eyes of both of them.
Bron said with gratitude: "Mom always said that only those who truly care about you will worry about whether you can eat well and wear warm clothes outside."
"My Lord, you treat me as well as my mother treats me."
The corners of Cao Xing's mouth twitched. Why does this big bald guy always use weird metaphors?
Still, he nodded.
Andrew, who was standing by, also took the leader's soul in his hand and said devoutly, "Thank you for your gift, Lord. You are still as generous and kind as ever."
However, both of them simultaneously slapped their souls into their bodies.
A system prompt appears.
[Due to your gift, the loyalty of territory member: Bron Iron Wall to you has increased. The current loyalty is 85]
…
Andrew's loyalty is full, so no relevant system prompts appear.
Both of them are in a state of metamorphosis, and it is hard to say whether they will succeed.
Cao Xing, on the other hand, began to check the properties of the other three new things.
[Sharp Claw (Blue): The claw contains the aura of tearing, which is harder and more valuable. 】
…
[Large Claw (Purple): An extremely hard and sharp large claw that can be made into some large equipment.]
(Tip: Give it to a professional blacksmith, he may find another use for it, and there may be some nobles willing to purchase this large hook.)
…
Cao Xing nodded. "This pair of large claws is good. They can be sold for the same price as bear paws."
He began to look further.
【Large Book of Power】
(Can be used on a subject to increase his/her strength by 5 points.)
…
Cao Xing glanced at the books in his backpack.
[List of attribute books: click to view]
…
"Not bad, not bad. Altogether, there are about a hundred of them. I can use them to upgrade them."
However, except for the Book of Chaos which provides random upgrades, the other books still need to be assigned to the corresponding recruited creatures in order to achieve the best effect.
Meanwhile, others had already cleaned up the battlefield.
Renee, Sarah, and Assam all came over and handed the things in their hands to Cao Xing.
Cao Xing collected them all.
[Obtain sharp claws (green) * 97]
[Obtain evil spirit dust (white) * 132]
[Obtain 4 medium-sized books of chaos]
[Obtain 3 medium-sized magic books]
[Obtain a Medium Power Book*1]
[Obtain medium-sized physical book *3]
[Obtain Ascalon's Funeral Bag*7]
…
"Not bad, not bad, another big harvest."
Then, Cao Xing took out a pile of books from his backpack.
First, take all the books of chaos and books of agility.
Most of it was given to Sarah, and a small portion was given to Renee.
Sarah was the top general under Cao Xing, so he was a little biased towards her.
When the two girls took them, they both felt that the number of attribute books in their hands was slightly different.
Renee gave Cao Xing a resentful look.
Sarah, on the other hand, was staring at Cao Xing with a fiery look in her eyes.
At this time, Sarah came to Cao Xing's ear and whispered, "Tonight, I want to..."
After saying that, she happily ran over with a pile of attribute books in her hands.
Cao Xing shuddered all over. When he thought of what happened last night and Sarah's graceful and devilish figure, he felt as if a fire was burning in his heart.
But he knew that now was not the time to think about these things, so he quickly suppressed all these emotions.
Renee looked at the two people's intimate behavior with a strange look in her eyes.
Then Cao Xing called Assam over and distributed all the books of physique and books of strength to Assam.
The other spiritual books were divided half to Hilda.
Then, Cao Xing said: "Well, use these books to improve your strength!"
The four of them looked at the books in their hands and nodded solemnly.
[Your territory member: Sarah Blade Dance uses the Small Book of Chaos and randomly gains 1 point of Strength.]
[Your territory member: Renis Eagle Eye used the Small Book of Chaos to randomly increase the spiritual attribute by 1 point.]
[Your territory member: Hilda Bloodkiss uses a medium-sized spirit book, increasing the spirit attribute by 3 points.]
[Your territory member: Asam used the Large Book of Strength, increasing the Strength attribute by 5 points. ]
【your……】
(Note: A small attribute book can be used by a single hero up to 50 times, a medium attribute book can be used by a single hero up to 20 times, and a large attribute book can be used up to 10 times.)
After a series of system prompts.
Cao Xing also saw the system notes at the back.
"Is there a limit on the number of times they can be used? It seems that it is impossible to use all these attribute books on one hero."
However, even if it is used, the impact is not significant.
After all, the number of books that a single hero can use is still quite large.
Cao Xing could feel that the attributes of these recruited creatures were constantly increasing.
These books can at least allow them to improve a single attribute by two or three levels.
Moreover, the good news keeps coming.
[Your territory member: Braum Ironwall has successfully upgraded to an elite creature, basic attributes increased by 30%, and learned a new skill: Indestructible]
[Indestructible: Braum puts up a shield and enters a fully defensive state, armor increases by 20%, and movement speed increases by 20%]
…
"Another defensive skill!"
Cao Xing was delighted and then checked Braum's attributes.
[Ice Shield Guardian: Braum Iron Wall]
[Level: Level 12 534/30000 (Second-level elite creature)]
【Detailed properties: click to view】
…
Seeing that Braum's health was about to break through 4,000 and his armor was over 200, Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction.
"Okay, okay, now I have another great general!"
…
