After a moment, Putana squeezed out two words, "Thank you..."
Cao Xing waved his hands, signaling her not to worry.
Andrew, Renees, and Blot all looked at Cao Xing with gratitude.
A series of system prompts appear.
[Due to your generosity, the loyalty of territory member: Rasby has been increased. Current loyalty: 88]
[Due to your generosity, the loyalty of territory member: Rabino has been increased. Current loyalty: 85]
[Due to your generous donation, the loyalty of territory member: Putana Carson has been increased. Current loyalty: 89]
[Due to your generosity, the loyalty of territory member Blot Brimstone has been increased. Current loyalty: 100]
(Loyalty is full. Now the other party will obey your orders unconditionally.)
…
"Great, I have another subordinate with full loyalty."
Cao Xing was very satisfied.
Then he said, "Now, use what you have to make a breakthrough."
"We'll continue exploring the forest for a while."
After hearing Cao Xing's order, everyone responded solemnly.
"As you command, Lord!"
Then, they slammed their souls into their bodies or crushed their hearts of power.
Most of the people on the field began to transform.
Cao Xing glanced at the countdown above his head.
【Distance until nightfall: 3:24】
【Current temperature: -53℃】
"There are only three hours left until dark."
"It will take at least an hour and a half to get back to the camp, and the weather forecast says there will be a moderate snowfall today, so we have to go back a little earlier."
"That means I only have about an hour left to explore."
Although with their current strength, staying outside for a night is nothing.
But now is the [Dragon's Rise] expansion period, and ice nests descend near the territory every once in a while.
So Cao Xing decided not to stay outside.
"This Witch Forest hides a lot of secrets. Even the Church of Light values this place so much. It must be something extraordinary."
"But with my current abilities, I am still unable to discover all the secrets of this forest..."
"But anyway, I've gained enough this time!"
"Not only did I pick some ice harlequin flowers, I also harvested a lot of animal meat!"
"When you go back at night, you can use the heart of the Man-Faced Tree to speed up the growth of Volibear and the Pale Tree."
Thinking of this, Cao Xing couldn't wait to return to the camp.
While he was thinking about this.
The aura of the two wild boar warriors rose at the same time!
The system prompt appears.
[Your territory member: Rabino/Rasby successfully upgraded to an elite creature and learned a new skill: Double Blade Rondo]
…
Cao Xing was delighted.
"Very good. After a failed attempt to break through, they have succeeded."
"Now these four boar warriors are all above the elite level. When my entire boar warrior corps comes out, I will let them be the squad leaders to command them."
But unfortunately, the breath from Putana suddenly stopped.
She failed to break through to the boss level.
At this moment, the tall woman looked at Cao Xing with an apologetic look on her face.
Cao Xing waved his hands and said, "It's okay, don't worry about it."
Although he still has a leader-level soul in his hand, Cao Xing has other candidates.
So Putana has to be put at the back.
At the same time.
The system prompt appears again.
[Your territory member: Renis Eagle Eye has successfully upgraded to a third-level creature, and its basic attributes have increased by 100%]
[Your territory member: Brot Brimstone successfully upgraded to a third-level creature, basic attributes increased by 100%]
…
Joy appeared in Cao Xing's eyes again.
"Okay, okay, I'll add two more level three generals to my rank!"
Take a look at their attributes.
[Ascalon Archer: Renis Hawkeye]
[Race: Human]
[Level: Level 20 0/100000 (Level 3 Boss)]
【Detailed properties: click to view】
…
[Black Smoke Shaman: Brot Brimstone]
[Race: Ciel]
[Level: Level 20 0/100000 (Level 3 Boss-level Creature)]
【Detailed properties: click to view】
…
"Not bad! They all have an attack power of over 1500!"
"Renisse's critical hit now will deal at least 2,000 damage!"
The transition from the second stage to the third stage is also an important transformation.
Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction again.
Now, we just have to wait for news from Andrew.
This also made Cao Xing feel a little uneasy.
After all, it is still very difficult to encounter a boss-level creature, let alone a soul...
I pray in my heart, don’t fail, don’t fail…
However, it was a pity that Andrew's breath suddenly stopped.
At this moment, Cao Xing suddenly became furious.
Damn it! A leader soul and a leader soul both failed!
Andrew came over with an apologetic look on his face, knelt on one knee in front of Cao Xing and said, "Lord, Andrew has failed and wasted such a precious breakthrough opportunity."
Cao Xing patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, Andrew. It's not your fault."
He also knew that a leader-level soul only had a 45% chance of success, so the probability of failure was greater than the probability of success.
It is not easy to break through to the leader.
However, although Andrew failed to break through, it did not hinder Cao Xing from having other props!
So, he took out the [Holy Light Priest Recruitment Scroll (Gold)] from his backpack.
This is the second boss-level recruitment scroll he received after the leaderboard reward!
The scroll alone exudes a strong holy aura, giving people a strong sense of sacredness.
A system prompt appears.
[Do you want to use the Holy Light Priest recruitment scroll? ]
"yes."
The next moment, the recruitment scroll in Cao Xing's hand disappeared.
At the same time, a light came from heaven.
A holy beam of light seemed to shoot from the top of the sky in front of Cao Xing.
The entire wild boar warrior tribe was made to look extremely sacred.
Even the beast god statue next to it began to radiate light again.
This beam of light attracted everyone's attention.
At the same time.
Cao Xing saw white wings falling from above his head and heard solemn singing echoing in his ears.
"Oh my god... such a grand ceremony?"
This also made him look forward to it.
The next moment, a tall and well-proportioned woman in a white dress floated down from the beam of light.
Above the slender and white legs is a waist belt wrapped with a flower crown.
The upper body is covered with a light gauze, with rippling waves.
Looking up, everyone saw a face that was so beautiful that it was beyond description.
Her eyes were as bright as topaz and sparkled with spirit.
The light yellow eyeshadow and delicate facial features are full of exotic style.
She also held a staff in her hand.
A ethereal sound was heard.
"The dark blood once twisted my soul and caused me to fall into the abyss of sin..."
"Until she arrived, she placed her hands on my head and began to sing, giving me a divine blessing."
"Bathed in the holy light, I was completely purified."
"Follow the guidance of the Holy Light."
"Holy Light Priest: Isabel Gospel, greetings to you."
…
The beauty of this Holy Light Priest stunned everyone present.
She is as beautiful as Liu Muxue.
In addition, the holy light emanating from her body was so strong that people could not look directly at it, making her look extremely sacred!
However, at this moment, the Blood Spider Queen Hilda said, "That glowing woman, calm down your aura."
"You caught my eyes!"
Hearing this, the Holy Light Priest looked at Hilda beside him and smiled.
"Oh? Blood Spider Clan? You smell strongly of blood."
"It seems that you have committed a lot of murders in the past!"
Hilda glanced at her indifferently, as if she didn't even bother to reply.
The Holy Light Priest looked at Hilda, a thoughtful look flashing across his eyes.
"I think I know your identity. During the invasion war ten thousand years ago, there was a Blood Spider Queen who caused trouble in the Gandara War Zone."
"She destroyed six huge cities within a month, slaughtered all the people in two principalities, and turned the area into a paradise for blood spiders."
"Because of the murders you committed, they even attracted the attention of our Church."
"When I rushed over, I found that you had been killed by the invaders!"
After hearing this, Hilda sneered, "Tsk! If those guys hadn't besieged this queen, I would have called a necromancer to target my self-destructing blood spiders."
"Otherwise, this queen can just devour all of these guys!"
The Holy Light Priest raised his staff after hearing this, "Hmph! Blood Spider Queen, don't think this matter is over."
"The sins of ten thousand years ago still need to be paid for even now."
"Now, let the holy light wash away your sins!"
After she finished speaking, the Holy Light Priest raised her staff, and the rich power of Holy Light gathered towards her.
And Hilda on the side also instantly entered into combat mode.
The two women, both leaders, immediately became hostile to each other.
Cao Xing didn't know what was going on with these two women.
What invasion war, what destruction of six huge cities, what Gandara war zone.
Cao Xing didn't understand at all.
But as the lord of the two, he quickly stopped them, saying, "Hilda, Isabel, you are all my subjects. Our attacks can only be directed at outsiders."
"Now, I order you to lay down your weapons!"
Hearing Cao Xing's serious tone, the two girls confronted each other for a while.
Then, they both turned their heads at the same time.
"snort!"
"whispering sound!"
Cao Xing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that they were no longer fighting each other.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Fortunately, I, as a lord, still have some dignity."
And at this moment, a system prompt appeared.
[Due to the disharmony among the subjects, the loyalty of your territory member: Hilda Bloodkiss to you has decreased by 5 points.]
[Due to the disharmony among the subjects, the loyalty of your territory member: Isabella Gospel to you has decreased by 5 points]
…
“Fuck!”
Cao Xing cursed inwardly, and at the same time couldn't help feeling angry in his heart!
"Damn it, what does your relationship have to do with me?"
"I finally managed to raise Hilda's loyalty to over 80!"
At this moment, Cao Xing kept taking deep breaths.
Then tell yourself to stay calm, stay calm.
He kept smiling as he said, "Welcome, Isabel. Let us build together a land full of holiness... full of redemption."
Isabel turned around and put a gentle smile back on her face.
"Thank you, Lord, for giving me the chance to be reborn again."
"May the Light guide you."
Cao Xing nodded and began to check her attributes.
[Holy Light Priest: Isabel Gospel]
[Race: Human]
[Level: Level 23 10054/160000 (Level 3 Boss-level Creature)]

[Satisfaction: 77]
【Loyalty: 63】
(Character introduction: Isabel was once just a villager in an unknown village. One day, the Dark Cult came to her village and captured all the girls as sacrifices.
They killed all the girls' relatives in front of them and smashed their bodies.
Then they used the blood mixed with their relatives' body tissues to smear it on the girls' bodies.
The Dark Cult enjoyed the fear on the girls' faces and regarded their pain and moans as hymns.
Isabel watched with her own eyes as the girls around her were tortured to death one by one and then sacrificed.
When she was most desperate, she heard a voice in her ear for the first time in her life. It was the voice of the devil.
The devil told her that as long as she gave up her soul, she would have great power and the power to destroy everything.
On that day, she became a witch of revenge and killed the dark cult and all the people and animals in the village!
After this, Isabelle was completely consumed by the flames of revenge in her heart and began her path of killing.
However, as Isabelle's killing spree against the Black Order continued, she felt increasingly lost.
She can now kill all the people and animals in a village or even a city with ease.
Even because of her revenge, countless civilians died.
Isabel felt confused and painful, but the murderous desire in her heart drove her to kill more lives.
When she was in the most pain, she heard the voice in her ear for the second time in her life.
It was a beautiful song.
The voice asked her if she was willing to join the Vatican, use her power to benefit the world and wash away her sins.
Isabel accepted.
At this moment, the blood and wounds on the body disappeared.
Since then, there has been one less witch of revenge in the world, and one more: Isabel the Gospel.)
…
“Oh my god…”
Looking at the long character introduction, Cao Xing was shocked for a long time.
This new leader-level Holy Light Priest has a surprising background and a very rich and tortuous life experience.
This also created the current jealous and vengeful Holy Light priest.
Her skills are so powerful that they are terrifying.
The most terrifying thing is her new hymn skill!
What does it mean to restore 5 spirit points of health per second?
With Isabel's current attributes, this is equivalent to more than 3,000 restored data per second!
In other words, within these 10 seconds, Cao Xing and his companions were almost immortal!
However, the effect of [Confession] is a bit weird, similar to the mind control of the devil.
Isabelle's other skills are not weak at all.
Holy Light Burning Shield can block attacks, then push monsters and cause explosion damage!
The Holy Ring can control the group and gather monsters.
"That's too fierce!"
Cao Xing was very excited!
What's more, I can make her even more powerful!
Then, he suppressed his excitement and said solemnly: "Isabelle, you have a strong power of holy light."
"Now, let me bless you."
There was a look of doubt in Isabel's beautiful eyes.
Cao Xing did not explain much, but pulled Liu Muxue and Blott to impose a series of conditions on Isabel.
Including Hilda, who, under Cao Xing's order, reluctantly cast the Queen's Will on Isabel.
Like everyone else.
Isabel was surprised at first, but after feeling that those powers remained in her body forever, strong shock appeared in her eyes!
Even though she had a rich personal experience, she had never seen such a miraculous power!
Isabel exclaimed: "You are truly a miraculous lord. Even in the Vatican, I have never seen such miraculous power."
"If the Holy See has your help, the Holy Light will soon spread throughout the world."
[You helped Isabel Gospel improve her strength, and her loyalty has increased. Current loyalty: 71]
…
Not bad, this wave increases loyalty by 8 points.
This can be considered as making up for the 5 points of loyalty that were lost.
At this time, Isabel said softly.
"My Lord, are you interested in joining the Church?"
"Holy See?"
Isabel nodded her head and said softly, "The Holy See is an extremely ancient organization. Our members are spread across four continents and even the Frozen Sea."
"From kings to nobles, from knights to commoners, there are members of our Church."
Hearing this, before Cao Xing could answer, Xierda beside him whispered, "Tsk! That was ten thousand years ago."
"It is not certain whether the current Vatican exists or not."
Isabel smiled at Hilda and said, "Blood Spider Queen, you don't understand the Church, and you can't understand how powerful the Church is."
"It's one of the oldest organizations in the world."
"I can feel that the Holy Light is still guiding me, and it will also bring punishment to evil creatures like you."
There was still disdain in Hilda's eyes.
Seeing that the two girls were about to quarrel again, Cao Xing hurried forward to stop them.
