Seeing their names, Cao Xing's mouth twitched again.

They are all names of flowers, and they sound very nice.

But Cao Xing felt that these names were too elegant and did not suit his style.

So he pointed at one of the women and said, "From today on, you are called Dahua."

"And her name is Erhua, Sanhua."

The three human women knelt down again and said respectfully, "Thank you for the honor, kind Lord."

[You are a subject: Dahua was named successfully, and your loyalty has been increased. The current loyalty is 75]

[You are a subject: The second flower has been named successfully, and the loyalty has been increased. The current loyalty is 73]

…

Cao Xing took a look at their attributes.

【Citizen: Dahua】

【Level: Level 1】

[Attributes: Strength 3, Agility 2, Spirit 3, Constitution 3]

【Talent: None】

【Loyalty: 75】

【Hunger level: 41】

…

【Citizens: Erhua】

【Level: Level 1】

[Attributes: Strength 3, Agility 3, Spirit 2, Constitution 2]

【Talent: None】

【Loyalty: 73】

【Hunger level: 37】

…

The loyalty of these three people is quite high, but their hunger is a bit low.

It can be seen that they haven't eaten for a long time.

So Cao Xing said, "Go make a fire and cook something for yourself. We haven't built a canteen yet, so the stove is in the lord's hut."

After hearing this, the three of them nodded respectfully.

"Yes, Lord."

After they left, Cao Xing continued to think by the campfire.

These newly recruited populations need to be given small shelters to rest at night.

Then, a special canteen should be built for the people to eat.

However, building or upgrading buildings takes a lot of time.

Cao Xing looked at the eight busy polar people and sighed, "There are still not enough people..."

"If we have more people, we can divide the work and cooperate with each other, greatly speeding up the efficiency of territory development."

"Is there any way for me to recruit some people?"

Cao Xing couldn't help but recall his previous experience of playing games on a tablet.

On top,

Game characters also face the problem of insufficient manpower.

However, there are several solutions in the game.

First, when your territory is upgraded to a certain level and has a certain prestige in the surrounding area, some tribal residents or refugees living nearby will voluntarily come to you for surrender.

The second is to send out his troops to roam around like Assam did, with a chance of bringing back some men from the wild.

The third method is to go to the taverns in cities or towns in this world and recruit some NPCs with special abilities by paying a certain amount of reward.

The fourth is to directly launch a war to conquer the nearby tribal residents and force them to surrender.

In short, there are many methods, not limited to the above ones.

But obviously, these methods are not applicable to Cao Xing at present.

At this moment, the three new subjects brought a piece of news to Cao Xing after they had their meal.

After hearing the news, Cao Xing's expression suddenly brightened up.

He looked at Dahua and asked, "You mean you escaped from a group of rangers' camp?"

"Are there still many humans imprisoned in that camp?"

Dahua nodded and said, "Yes, Lord, those hunters are very cruel and have absolutely no humanity!"

"Many of our companions have already fallen into their hands."

"If possible, I hope the Lord can lend a hand and rescue them!"

Having said this, Dahua knelt directly on the ground, her tone full of pleading.

Cao Xing is most short of manpower now.

After hearing this information, Cao Xing almost instinctively wanted to take action.

But he quickly suppressed his excitement and helped Dahua up.

"Do you know how many hunters there are and what their strength is?"

Dahua lives in ice and snow all year round, and her cold white Western face seems to be recalling something.

Then, she said respectfully, "My Lord, there are about 20 to 30 hunters in that group."

"Most of the rangers there have a similar aura to that of the Lord."

Cao Xing thought about it, then nodded.

He is now a level 3 frost mage, which means that the strength of those rangers is around level 3 to 5.

Dahua added, "In addition to those ordinary hunters, they also have two small team leaders who are slightly stronger than this snake-man lady."

"In addition, there is a strongest captain, whose aura is similar to that of Mr. Asam."

It can be seen that Dahua is very smart and has strong language expression ability.

Through her description, Cao Xing already knew the strength of the group of hunters.

There is one level 10 ranger, two rangers above level 5, and more than twenty rangers below level 5.

If Cao Xing only relied on his previous strength, he might not be able to deal with them.

However, now Asam has been upgraded to a second-level creature, and Cao Xing also has an "Ice Druid" recruitment scroll in his hand, so dealing with these rangers is not a problem at all.

Moreover, those hunters are said to have hidden treasures...

It was obvious that Cao Xing was already moved.

Assam also saw what Cao Xing was thinking.

"My Lord, the location that Dahua mentioned is about seven kilometers away from the camp."

"At our speed, it will take us about an hour and a half to get there."

Cao Xing nodded.

The speed of moving forward in the snow is not fast, and an hour and a half is still within an acceptable range. At least we can get back before dark.

Liu Muxue also stood aside at this time and said softly: "Axing, I will go with you too."

Cao Xing nodded, "Okay."

After saying that, Cao Xing gave her both the [Black Iron Plate Armor (Green)] and the [Aurora Blessing Skill Book].

Looking at the equipment and skill book in hand.

Liu Muxue looked at Cao Xing with gratitude again.

She certainly knew the importance of these equipment and skill books at the current stage.

Liu Muxue didn't say much, but silently clicked on the skill book to learn, and then put on the armor.

Cao Xing saw it.

Liu Muxue is now wearing black armor on her upper body, while her long legs are bare in the lower body, and she is also wearing a thick wolfskin coat on the outside.

This outfit has a rather interesting style.

Cao Xing himself clicked to learn [Ice Cone Technique], and then took out the [Icefield Druid] recruitment scroll.

A system prompt appears.

[Do you want to consume the Icefield Druid Recruitment Scroll to recruit a druid with level 15 elite strength? ]

[Icefield Druid Occupancy: 3 Population]

Cao Xing directly clicked "Yes".

At the same time.

In front of Cao Xing, there appeared a hexagram with a diameter of five meters, which was even larger than the previous one.

Bursts of intense light burst out from the hexagram array.

Then, a powerful and ancient aura appeared.

Through the light curtain, Cao Xing could see a humanoid creature that was two meters and five meters tall and had a strong build.

It just stood there motionless, giving people a terrifying sense of pressure!

After the light curtain dissipated, everyone finally saw each other's full appearance clearly.

It was a creature covered with snow-white mane, with sharp bear claws and strong limbs, but it looked like a human.

His hairy face revealed a pious look.

Then, he placed his right hand on his chest, bowed slightly and said, "The power of nature will guide me forward."

"Guardian Andrew, reporting to you."
