Cao Xing was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay."

When the two girls heard Cao Xing's agreement, they were overjoyed and then respectfully took their leave.

Cao Xing looked at the last two boss souls left in his backpack and thought to himself, "Next, I have to fulfill my promise."

Before leaving two days ago, I promised Ilena that I would help her break through to the leader.

However, when Cao Xing arrived at her residence, he did not find the snake woman.

After thinking for a moment, he dialed the communication device on his ear.

"Irena, where are you?"

“Blah…”

There was a sound of water coming from the opposite side.

After a moment, Ilena said softly, "My Lord, I am taking a bath in the hot spring."

"Is there anything you need from me? I can come right over."

Hearing this, Cao Xing was stunned.

His hot spring was built not long ago, and he has not yet experienced it.

Unexpectedly, Ilena had already gone to the hot spring first.

So Cao Xing said, "No need, I'll come find you."

Hearing this, Ilena's laughter came from the earphone, "Okay~ I'll wait for you, dear lord."

Cao Xing quickly arrived at the location of the [Hot Spring Hall] and pushed the door open.

now.

The hot spring hall was filled with steam.

Cao Xing went straight to the women's bath and asked, "Ilena, are you in there?"

The man on the other side chuckled and said, "My Lord, I am the only one in the bath. You can come in directly."

Cao Xing didn't say much after hearing this.

Just push the door open and walk in.

In the bathing pool in front, Cao Xing saw the upper body of a beautiful woman leaning on the water.

A tail covered with white scales kept swaying on the water.

It was Ilena.

She was only wearing a simple white silk undershirt on her upper body, which, after being soaked in hot water, highlighted the round outline of her chest.

After seeing Cao Xing, Ilena's narrow eyes showed joy.

He whispered, "My Lord, the temperature has been too low in the past two days due to the snowstorm."

"We snake people have a relatively low body temperature. This will affect my physical activities, so I'm going to take a dip in the hot spring."

Hearing this, Cao Xing nodded suddenly.

“Blah…”

The sound of water was heard.

A long snake tail covered with white scales broke through the water.

Then, Ilena twisted her body and slowly swam out of the hot spring.

"My Lord, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Cao Xing nodded, "Of course, it's a good thing."

After saying this, he took out the leader's soul from his backpack.

Ilena looked at the soul in Cao Xing's hand and a look of surprise appeared on her face.

"Ah! Another higher level soul~"

"The Lord remembered me after all..."

Cao Xing smiled and said, "Use it to break through, Ilena."

The snake girl in front of him said respectfully: "Okay, dear lord~"

After saying this, she slapped the soul into her body.

However, this time, Ilena's breakthrough seemed to have failed, and a look of frustration appeared in her eyes again.

But it doesn’t matter, luckily Cao Xing prepared a second one.

Ilena also looked at Cao Xing with loving eyes.

Cao Xing comforted her and signaled her to continue breaking through.

Ilena nodded her head lightly, and then slapped the second soul into her body.

This time, she did not fail.

Instead, a mysterious aura rose from Ilena's body.

[Your territory member: Ilena has successfully upgraded to a third-level boss creature, with basic attributes increased by 30%, and learned new skills: "Summon White Frost Shadow", "Transformation"]

…

Seeing the system prompt, Cao Xing was puzzled: "Oh? Breakthrough Boss actually has two skills?"

"Summoning the Frost Shadow is understandable, but what about transformation?"

He took a look at the properties of the two skills.

[Summon Frost Shadow: Chant a spell to summon the phantom of the legendary snake "Frost" to assist in the battle. The attributes of "Frost Phantom" are 150% of Ilena's. It has skills such as "Snow Shadow Assault", "Frost Dance", and "Snow Twist". The duration is: 120 seconds, and the cooldown time is: 10 minutes]

(Note: "White Frost Shadow" is a part of the legendary snake's divine power, and has the strength of a boss of the same level.)

…

"White Frost?"

This was the first time Cao Xing heard this name.

Obviously, this giant snake must be an extremely powerful being. After all, it is a legendary creature.

Even though it's just its shadow, it's already very powerful!

Ilena's first three skills are all status skills.

This time I broke through to the boss and finally gained a combat skill, which is pretty good.

Then, Cao Xing looked at the second skill again.

[Transformation: After the snakemen break through to the boss level, they activate more blood power in their bodies and can transform into human form or snakeman form at any time. 】

…

"Oh my god, a transformation skill?"

Just when he was surprised.

Cao Xing has already seen that Ilena in front of him has begun to use the skill [Transformation].

Her long snake tail gradually shortened and her scales gradually disappeared.

Then the snake's tail separated and transformed into two slender and white human female legs.

However, her thighs were still covered with a few white scales, revealing her identity as a snake person.

But this does not hinder Irena's overall beauty, but adds a touch of unique temperament.

Ilena looked at her body with a look of surprise in her eyes.

"Ah! I really have a human body!"

"I've heard from the tribe leader before that some snake people have a chance to awaken their blood power and transform when they evolve. I never thought it would really work!"

"Very good!"

At this moment, the beautiful woman was jumping excitedly by the bathtub with her bare feet.

However, what she didn't notice was that she had just transformed.

It's like having nothing on the lower body...

Cao Xing looked down.

Saw the smooth skin...

There is also a snowy hill...

Cao Xing couldn't help but sigh: "Hmm...it's really white...and the shape is perfect..."

And Ilena seemed to notice Cao Xing's gaze.

Not only did he not feel ashamed, but he even took the initiative to come closer.

She placed her hands on Cao Xing's neck and whispered, "Lord, now, Ilena can finally do what you like with you~"

Hearing this, Cao Xing's desire for knowledge, which he had not yet fully released on the two female mages, rose up again.

“Shh…”

He directly took off Ilena's simple white undershirt...

A white greasy appearance.

They hugged each other.

Rolling on the clean floor of the hot spring.

The rising mist made the two people's vision more blurred.

Cao Xing felt the heavy breathing of the beauty in front of him.

Then he made his final move.

Accompanied by Ilena's exclamation.

A pair of beautiful legs tightened instantly.

It seemed a little uncomfortable to do such a thing when I transformed for the first time.

She bit her lower lip lightly, a trace of pain appearing between her eyebrows.

At this moment, Cao Xing only felt a strong chill attacking his whole body.

And after the cold, there is incomparable softness again...

He looked at Irena in surprise.

He never thought that the body of the snake people would feel like this...

It's a completely different feeling.

Cool and soft...

Cao Xing also noticed the pain in Ilena's eyes and asked.

"Ilena, how are you feeling? Do you want to take a break?"

At this moment, Ilena seemed to have adapted to this situation.

His brows gradually relaxed, and then with a loving look in his eyes, he shook his head and said, "No need, Lord..."

"Just do what you like..."

Hearing this, Cao Xing said nothing.

Instead, he attacked again.

“Hmm…Hmm…”

"Lord, Lord..."

Accompanied by Ilena's scream.

She gradually adapted to the rhythm.

Time passes slowly.

The entire hot spring hall was filled with Irena's charming voice.

…

…

At the same time.

In the endless snowstorm.

A group of figures were pulling a team of horse-drawn carriages, walking in the thick snow.

The snow on the road was so deep that even a carriage would get stuck in it.

A group of guards in front were working hard to clear the snow and create a path for carriages to pass.

The carriages were all black with a lion's head logo on them.

It was the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce's convoy.

And at the front of the team, there stood a short and fat figure.

At this time, a Shire guard came over and said, "Sir Hilton, the carriage got stuck again. This is the seventh time it has gotten stuck today."

"At the current rate we are moving, we may not reach our destination before dark."

Hearing this, Hilton's eyes also showed a solemn look.

"Let's go and cooperate with the others to push the carriage out."

"Then you go ahead and clear the snow to help the convoy clear the way."

At this moment, a third-tier elite guard captain said, "Mr. Hilton, why don't we stay in the abandoned village for a few more days and wait for the snow to melt before going out? Instead of taking the risk to come and look for the lord?"

Hilton listened and shook his head.

Then he sighed and said, "I want to stay a few more days, too."

"But you have to know that with so many of us, the amount of supplies we need to consume every day is a huge number."

"We didn't anticipate a snowstorm this time, so we didn't bring much food with us."

"Our current reserves are only enough to support the caravan for a day and a half at most, and that's if we live frugally."

After listening to Hilton's explanation, the captain of the Charr tribe also showed a serious look in his eyes.

In order to save space and reduce weight, caravans will not carry too many supplies.

Anyway, they have been doing business in the Snowstorm Plains for many years and are very familiar with the terrain here. There are many places where they can replenish resources.

But the sudden bad weather disrupted everyone's plans.

Hilton continued, "I looked at the map. There are three villages near us. The closest one is Hogg Village."

"But in this weather, it will take us until midnight to get to Hog Village, and we can't expect any accidents to happen on the way."

"So, for the sake of safety, we can only go find that lord first, hoping that he can give us some help."

The captain of the guard thought for a moment, then said slowly: "Mr. Hilton, with all due respect, the Chosen Lord is quite capable."

"But I think that their territory may not be able to withstand the impact of this blizzard."

"Moreover, recently the power of the dragon has been wreaking havoc in the Snowstorm Plains, and the territories of many Chosen Lords have already been engulfed."

"I estimate... this person is most likely the same..."

Hearing this, Hilton's eyes also showed a solemn look.

This possibility exists and the probability is very high.

After all, in their impression, Cao Xing and other Blue Star survivors are weak.

The last time they met, Cao Xing's territory was of a decent size, but it was still far from becoming a powerful territory.

Hilton thought for a moment, then puffed out his fat belly and said.

"There's nothing we can do. We can only take it one step at a time."

"I hope this Lord Cao Xing can survive this snowstorm..."

Next, the entire caravan began to move at full speed.

They began to shovel the snow along the way, and some of them pushed the carriage behind.

It can be said that every time you walk a certain distance, you have to stop for a while.

After nearly an hour of difficult progress, they finally arrived near Cao Xing's territory.

At this moment, Hilton was also a little nervous.

"We're almost there, we're almost at Lord Cao Xing's territory!"

"I hope his territory will hold out."

As they got closer, everyone saw the tall city walls and the various elemental arrow towers and sentry towers.

At this moment, a look of confusion appeared in the eyes of the entire Black Lion Caravan.

"Gods above...what is going on?"

"How did Lord Cao Xing's territory become like this?"

"Did we take the wrong path?"

Hilton had a lot of questions in his mind.

Although he was sure that his position was correct.

However, these unfamiliar buildings still made Hilton doubt himself.

Not only Hilton, but also the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce guards had strong shock in their eyes.

The captain of the Ciel guard said, "Don't tell me... this is the territory of that alien lord!"

"I swear on the Khan's name, this is not true!"

"Yes, how long has it been since we last left?"

"How could this lord from another world build such a perfect and large-scale territory in just a dozen days?"

Hilton's fat face also showed an uncertain look.

He said slowly, "Whether it is or not, let's go and take a look first."

Under the anxious gaze of the crowd, they began to slowly approach the territory.

…

…

At the same time.

In the hot springs in the territory.

Two figures snuggled together and soaked in the hot spring.

At this moment, Ilena has returned to her snake-man body.

The long snake tail swayed on the water.

Since Cao Xing was going to take people to the Witch Forest at night, he had nothing to do during the day.

Just then, a system prompt appeared.

[Black Lion Chamber of Commerce: Hilton, I would like to apply to visit your territory. Do you agree? ]

…

When Cao Xing saw the system prompt, he was confused at first.

Then came a look of surprise!

"Haha! Old guy Hilton is finally here!"

Cao Xing has been waiting for this day for a long time.

After all, he has a lot of resources in his storage box, which are of amazing value.

It would be a shame if these resources were left unused and not transformed into strength.

Now, finally, a caravan was passing by his territory.

He put his arms around Irena's slender waist and kissed her directly on her beautiful face.

"Ilena, I have something to take care of."

"You soak first."

The beauty in front of him nodded slightly, and said with affectionate eyes: "Okay, dear lord."

"Please go ahead..."

Cao Xing quickly climbed out of the hot spring.

He dried his body and changed into a clean undergarment.

After putting on his equipment again, Cao Xing directly "accepted" Hilton's visit application.

After coming out of the hot spring, he quickly walked towards the gate of the territory.

From a distance, he saw a group of tall cat-headed creatures, surrounding a team of carriages, slowly approaching the territory.

These cat heads are naturally the familiar Ciel clan.

From the logos on the carriages, Cao Xing could tell at a glance that this was the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce.

At the same time, he also saw a short, pot-bellied businessman wearing a thick cotton coat walking in front of the team.

Looking at that familiar figure.

Cao Xing said happily: "Haha, it really is that old guy Hilton!"

He quickly opened the city gate and came out into the snow.

For the lord's safety, Assam, Bronn and two centaurs followed him.

The two sides came into contact with each other, with excitement in their eyes.

Cao Xing smiled and said, "Mr. Hilton, we meet again."

Hilton was also excited: "Yes, we meet again!"

"I couldn't believe it at first. This is really your territory. I almost thought I had taken the wrong path!"

"Lord Cao Xing, what happened during this period of time after we left?"

"How could your territory suddenly undergo such a drastic change?"

Hilton's voice became louder and louder, and everyone could hear the surprise in his tone.

Cao Xing could naturally understand his current mood.

After all, no one can imagine.

A dozen days ago, this territory only had a few isolated buildings.

Now there is the shape of a war fortress!

Cao Xing chuckled and said, "Mr. Hilton, this is a long story."

"You can understand that this is a unique ability of our Chosen Lord."

After Hilton heard this, a look of realization appeared in his eyes.

"So that's how it is. You, the Chosen Lords, do possess some magical powers."

Hilton said with emotion: "To be honest, Lord Cao Xing, we have also traveled through most of the Snowstorm Plains during this period of time, and have also seen many territories of the Chosen Lords."

"But no one's territory is as large as yours!"

"This really took us by surprise."

Cao Xing smiled and then looked at the convoy behind him.

At this moment, the guards were a little shabby, with mud on their armor.

The carriage had also taken a lot of damage, and several of its wheels had fallen off.

Cao Xing said, "Mr. Hilton, you look like you are in trouble?"

Hilton listened with a bitter look on his face.

He sighed and then explained their recent experiences to Cao Xing.

After listening to Hilton's story, Cao Xing also understood what they had experienced.

He smiled and consoled, "Mr. Hilton, don't be sad. After all, it is difficult for human power to compete with the power of nature."

"You have worked hard on this journey. Now, I will take you to my territory to rest for a while and repair the carriage."

Hearing this, Hilton's eyes suddenly showed gratitude.

To be honest, they were indeed exhausted after all this journey.

Hilton was about to agree.

However, he looked at the arrow towers in Cao Xing's territory with some uneasiness.

Before this, they thought that Cao Xing's territory was relatively weak and they could enter at will.

But now, things are different.

With the power of this territory, it is enough to easily defeat their caravan.

Moreover, once they enter the territory, if Cao Xing has any evil intentions, he will be trapped.

There was no possibility for the entire caravan to escape.

Including those Charles, some of them did not dare to enter.

However, after thinking for a moment, Hilton seemed to have made some kind of decision.

"Okay, then I'll trouble Lord Cao Xing."

The faces of the charr guards changed, but they didn't say much.

After all, in this caravan, Hilton has the final say.

Then, a dozen carriages and dozens of Char guards gradually entered Cao Xing's territory.

The residents who were building their territory looked at the caravan with curiosity in their eyes.

But everyone just took a look and then turned their attention back to the work at hand.

When the gate of the territory closed and the caravan's carriage drove onto the bluestone road, Hilton gradually breathed a sigh of relief.

Because he found that the arrow towers were not attacking them.

The other soldiers also continued to do their own things.

Even the Char people saw Blot in their territory.

They are both from the Ciel clan, and appear to be members of the Black Smoke Legion.

Blot stretched out his right hand, slowly raised it above his head, and made a military greeting gesture towards them.

These Charles guards immediately let down their guard.

Cao Xing didn't know what was going on in their minds.

In fact, if he really wanted to deal with these people, he wouldn't have to go through all that trouble.

The moment they entered the territory, there was basically no chance of escape.

Hilton's caravan gradually felt relieved.

Then, I couldn't help but look around this magical territory.

And when they saw those rows of residential buildings, taverns, training grounds and so on.

The surprise in his eyes could no longer be concealed.

Even the group of Char guards couldn't help but sigh in amazement.

"Khan! The facilities in this territory are so comprehensive!"

"Yes, before, when I was outside, I could only see the outline of the territory. Now that I am inside, I know that the prosperity of this territory is beyond imagination!"

At the same time.

They also noticed the powerful Ascalon soldiers and the boar warriors.

As a race that advocates war, the Charr could naturally clearly feel the terrifying aura emanating from the bodies of those warriors!

"Oh my god! Is this Lord Cao Xing's army?"

"Who are these soldiers? Why do they all exude such fierce auras, comparable to the centurions of our Black Smoke Legion!"

"What a fierce momentum!"

At this moment, all the Charles looked at each other, and saw the shock in each other's eyes.

They now understand.

If the lord wanted to take action against them, there was no need to invite them into the territory. He could just kill them all outside the territory!

Including Hilton, it has been completely suppressed.

Everything before his eyes was completely beyond his imagination!
