Cao Xing thought for a moment.

Speaking of which, although Edward has a good life skill, Cao Xing really doesn't know what the use of this advanced painting mastery is.

So, Cao Xing said, "There is nothing you need to do at the moment."

"When you have recovered enough, I will let you do tasks such as territory construction or fighting."

Hearing this, Edward said respectfully, "As you command, Lord!"

"Thank you, Lord, for taking care of me."

Cao Xing waved his hands, "Nothing, go and have a rest first."

Edward retreated respectfully.

And not long after he left.

On the bluestone ground in front of him, there appeared a creature with a graceful female upper body and a snake-like body covered with white scales in the lower body.

This enchanting snake-man priest was walking towards him, twisting her slender waist.

"My dear Lord, I have run into some trouble."

Cao Xing asked in confusion: "Ilena, what's wrong?"

She held the weapon in her hand and said, "My Lord, my trident is of too low quality. Two corners were broken during the battle last night. I can no longer use it."

Hearing this, Cao Xing looked over.

It was discovered that the short trident in Ilena's hand did have two broken ends.

"Show me."

Ilena also obediently handed the weapon to Cao Xing.

[Obtain: Broken Snakeman Priest Trident (Green)]

I took a look at the attributes and found that it was just a level 5 weapon.

This is normal. After all, when Ilena was summoned, she was just a level 5 snakeman priest.

Speaking of which, Cao Xing has never encountered a trident-type weapon before, not even in a treasure chest.

After all, there aren't many professions that use this weapon to fight.

However, as an experienced blacksmith, Harold should be able to make it.

So he said, "Okay, I understand. I'll try to get you a new weapon later."

Hearing this, the enchanting beauty in front of him immediately showed a look of joy on her face.

"Thank you, Lord. I knew you would agree to my request~"

Cao Xing smiled and was about to leave after he finished speaking.

"Lord, wait a minute, I still have something to ask you~"

Cao Xing was stunned, "What's the matter?"

There was a faint smile on Ilena's lips.

Then, he led Cao Xing into the room.

“Bang!”

The door is closed.

"Irena, what else?"

And at this moment, a curve appeared at the corner of Ilena's mouth.

Then, in front of Cao Xing, he put his hands behind his back, took off his breastplate and removed his skirt armor.

In an instant, a pair of tall and straight shapes appeared in front of him.

At this moment, Ilena was naked.

The upper body is a perfect female body.

The lower body is that of a seductive snake.

The waist twists and turns, full of unique temptation.

Ilena's enchanting face approached quickly and then came to Cao Xing's side.

She placed her hands on Cao Xing's neck and breathed out cold air.

"Today, I want to try something different with the Lord~"

Cao Xing was stunned and asked in confusion, "What's different?"

Ilena didn't say anything, but controlled her long white tail to wrap around Cao Xing, and then let him sit on the bed.

After a moment, the beautiful snakeman spit out her tongue and lowered her head.

“Slurp… slurp…”

The snake people's tongues kept turning and entwining flexibly.

This made Cao Xing gasp in shock.

"Hiss! Ilena... Is this what you mean by different?"

After a moment, the beautiful snakeman raised her enchanting head, covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Yes, this is what Sister Elena and the others taught me."

"They said I had a different body than other humans and that was an advantage."

"My Lord, do you like Irena like this?"

Cao Xing was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Hmm..."

Hearing this, the beautiful lady in front of him with beautiful features and charming temperament smiled even more happily.

The white shoulders trembled slightly, causing the white flesh on the chest to shake.

She continued to lower her head, spit out her tongue, and entangle it from all angles.

As time goes by...

This beautiful snake-man priestess had two white snake scales gradually covering her pretty face.

This adds a different kind of beauty to it.

Her pupils gradually turned red, her graceful waist twisted unnaturally, and her long snake body began to rotate continuously.

After a moment, Ilena pressed on Cao Xing.

"My Lord, are you ready?"

"Irena is coming..."

Cao Xing was shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly said: "Ilena, wait a minute, transform..."

Before he could finish his words, Ilena came up to him.

A charming sound came out of her mouth.

“Hmm…”

The sudden stimulation also made Cao Xing take a deep breath.

A cool and soft feeling came over me.

Irena bit her lower lip lightly, as if trying to adapt to the feeling.

After a moment, a comfortable smile appeared on her beautiful face.

"But... this form is more convenient..."

The snake people are a completely different feeling...

Fortunately, as a fourth-level wizard, I was able to make the little goblin surrender in the end.

In the blink of an eye, nearly two hours had passed.

After the battle, Ilena asked softly, "My Lord, how do you feel?"

Cao Xing smiled and said, "I feel great, Ilena."

Ilena was delighted when she heard this. "That's great. I thought the Lord would not like it~"

"Next time, I will continue with the Lord~"

After a moment's pause, Cao Xing nodded and said, "Okay."

…

…

After leaving Ilena's room, Cao Xing also felt refreshed.

I looked at the time. It was just past 10 o'clock in the morning, so it was still early.

"It's OK. The Ice Dragon Horn challenge will not start until the afternoon."

"There are only two days left for the points rankings. During this time, there should be a lot of people rushing to the top of the rankings."

"Look at how many arrows Harold has made. I also have Francesca's potions. I'll take this opportunity to sell some of them."

Thinking of this, Cao Xing took the lead in pushing open the door of the blacksmith shop.

“Dang! Ding-dong!”

The knocking sounds continued.

The dwarf in front of him was still sweating profusely.

When he saw Cao Xing coming in, he stopped what he was doing and said respectfully, "My Lord, I wish you good health."

Cao Xing nodded slightly and asked directly, "Harold, how many nightmare arrows have been made?"

"My Lord, the number is a little less than last time. There are only 1,600 green arrows, 242 blue arrows, and 54 purple arrows."

After hearing this, Cao Xing's eyes showed realization.

After thinking about it, this is normal.

After all, it has only been about a day since the last transaction.

Harold's efficiency is already very good.

"Not bad, your efficiency is as high as ever."

"Thank you for the compliment, Lord."

The dwarf in front of him replied humbly.

At this time, Cao Xing remembered what he had just promised Irena, and asked, "Harold, if I want to make a trident, do you have any ideas?"

Harold thought for a moment and then said, "I have seen some blueprints of a trident before, and I can make one."

A look of joy appeared on Cao Xing's face.

Harold was indeed an experienced blacksmith, and he even had drawings for weapons like the trident.

This saves him a lot of resources.

"But, Lord, what grade of trident do you need?"

Cao Xing understood what he meant. "Anything around level three or level four will do. If possible, it would be best if it is of gold quality."

Harold nodded. "Okay, lord. But if you want to make a golden trident, you'll need materials like everlasting gold and mithril."

Cao Xing asked, "How much do you need?"

"I need about 40 pieces of Evergrande and about 200 pieces of Mithril."

Hearing this number, Cao Xing's face showed a slight surprise.

The cost of crafting a golden weapon is really huge, as it requires so many everlasting gold bars and mithril.

Currently, his Mithril reserves are sufficient, but he does not have that many Invariant Bars.

But it doesn’t matter, I can just go to the market and trade it.

"I understand. I'll bring the materials over later."

Harold nodded respectfully, then as if remembering something, he continued, "By the way, Lord."

"There are two gem inlay holes on the trident. If you have beads or gems, you can inlay them to increase the power of this trident."

Hearing this, Cao Xing also remembered something.

He actually had quite a few gems and orbs in his hands, such as the [Moonlight Orb] and the [Blue Copper Orb].

In addition, you can also go to the Dragon Shop to exchange the two powerful [Glacier Magnet] and [Dragon Stone].

And at this moment, Cao Xing suddenly had an idea!

He directly took out the [King's Battle Blade (Gold)] that Liu Muxue had eliminated from his backpack.

"Harold, there are two gems on this weapon. Can you take them off and inlay them on the trident?"

The dwarf forger took it and examined it carefully, with a look of joy gradually appearing in his eyes.

He said in surprise, "My Lord, the material of this weapon is really good. A lot of everlasting gold ingots are used on it, and the craftsmanship is also very exquisite."

"If you need, I can melt it down and make it into the shape of a trident."

"Then add some Mithril and Evergrande ingots, upgrade its level, and you can save a lot of materials."

Hearing this, Cao Xing was also a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, this discarded [King's Battle Blade] can be melted down and used again.

He said with satisfaction, "Well, Harold, you can do it this way. The gemstones above will be directly inlaid on the new trident. If there is anything missing, just tell me directly."

"As you command, Lord!"

After arranging Harold's side.

Cao Xing came to the storage box and took out all the arrows inside.

[Obtain: Finely crafted nightmare arrow (green) * 1600]

【Obtained...】

…

The number of arrows was the same as Harold's.

Cao Xing left the blacksmith shop satisfied.

Then, he went straight to the area where the pharmacy was located.

As soon as I pushed open the door of the alchemy workshop, a strong aroma of medicine wafted in.

The light in the pharmacy was dim, and there was a faint green light flickering overhead.

Next to it are many shelves with the names of some herbal medicines and some semi-finished medicines labeled on them.

In the middle of the medicine room, there was a witch's cauldron that was bubbling with a "gurgling, gurgling" sound.

Cao Xing saw two figures busy inside.

The first one was Francesca, who was wearing a yellow low-cut dress.

She is still as beautiful as ever, and her profile alone is enough to fascinate people.

Cao Xing also discovered that this woman changed her clothes every day.

Basically, they are dresses with larger hems, which make her look elegant and luxurious, and set off her beauty.

Although she stayed in the pharmacy every day and seldom went out, this did not hinder her love of beauty.

Francesca knew clearly that she had a perfect face and she also liked her beauty.

Sabina next to her was busy at another workbench.

One of the two girls made poison, and the other made a life medicine. They chatted with each other from time to time, and got along quite well.

When she saw Cao Xing coming, Sabina walked over quickly and saluted respectfully.

"My Lord, you are here."

Francesca bowed slightly.

Cao Xing nodded, and first looked at Sabina beside him and asked, "How is the progress of the Nightmare Potion?"

The mature woman in front of him reported: "My Lord, a total of 217 bottles of Nightmare Potion have been produced in the past two days, including 46 bottles of blue quality."

After hearing this, Cao Xing smiled.

This magic potion can be used many times, and it is very good to be able to produce so many bottles.

"Well done, Sabina."

"Francesca, where are you?"

The beautiful witch replied softly, "According to your instructions, I have been refining the improved life medicine for the past two days. I have refined 1,271 bottles in total."

Hearing this number, Cao Xing's eyes suddenly lit up with joy.

Hey guys! So much?

As expected, he is a master in alchemy!

Cao Xing said: "Francesca, you have excellent alchemy skills."

Sabina next to him also exclaimed: "Yes, this beautiful witch has superb skills in making medicine. Compared to her, I am far behind."

Hearing the two people's praise, Francesca pursed her lips slightly, forming a beautiful arc.

"Thank you."

"However, it should be noted that a lot of the raw materials for this life secret medicine have been consumed in the past two days. At most, we can still refine about 2,000 portions."

Cao Xing was stunned. He had prepared so many materials before, but they were all used up by her in just a few days.

But it’s not bad. In total, we can produce more than 3,000 copies, which can be exchanged for a lot of resources.

"Okay, I understand."

"Make them all first, and I'll arrange for you to make other medicines later."

The witch in front of him nodded slightly, and then went back to work.

Cao Xing walked to the storage box and collected all the secret medicines.

[Obtained: Improved Life Secret Medicine*1271]

[Obtained: Sabina's Nightmare Potion (Green) *171]

[Obtained: Sabina's Nightmare Potion (Blue) *46]

…

"Not bad, after all, a blue-quality magic potion has been developed."

Look at the attributes.

[Sabina's Nightmare Potion (Blue)]

【Quality: Excellent】

[Potion effect: Apply to melee weapons or arrows to make the next 10 attacks have a layer of psychedelic toxin effect, reducing the enemy's attack power by 489 points within 30 seconds, and causing them to enter a psychedelic state, receiving a mental shock every 5 seconds...]

[Number of uses remaining: 10]

…

"Very good. Compared to green quality potions, the reduction in attack power is much higher."

"In this way, the attack power of the second-tier elite monsters will be reduced to zero!"

Cao Xing had a smile on his face.

This thing is like a miracle drug for those survivors of level one and two.

"The next step is to sell a batch of these potions and arrows and exchange them for resources."

Although, he now has more than one million Ice Dragon Marks.

But the more of this stuff the better.

And there are still many things in the store that have not been redeemed.

For example, those precious gems, as well as [Snowball Turret Blueprint], [Frost Catapult Blueprint], etc.

Moreover, Cao Xing is also preparing to form a new legion, and the soldiers of these legions will need to use various powers to break through.

So, Cao Xing walked directly to the [Market] and opened the consignment interface.

In an instant, millions of consignment information appeared.

After this period of development, there are more and more things on the market.

"Not bad. We may continue to merge servers in future versions."

"By then, there will be more supplies in the market, and you can get all the rare things."

So, as usual, Cao Xing put [Finely Crafted Nightmare Arrow (Green)] on the shelf first.

However, the price has increased a bit, from 300 Ice Dragon Marks per arrow to 400.

He also added a condition that each person could only purchase a maximum of 2 sticks.

Less than 10 seconds after it was put on the shelves, a survivor named Hong Zhuling immediately discovered the consignment information.

He glanced at the chat channel and found that no one was discussing this matter. He immediately realized that he might be the first person to discover that Cao Xing was consigning this kind of arrow!

After what happened yesterday, everyone knows how powerful this [Nightmare Arrow] is.

Many leaders of large groups offered 500 or even 600 Ice Dragon Marks to purchase one.

But everyone wants to keep this thing for themselves.

After all, no matter how many ice dragon marks you have, how can they be as important as your own life?

Hong Zhuling realized that this might be her chance. She could grab more nightmare arrows and resell them before others noticed.

However, he did not have that many Ice Dragon Seals in his hand, so he immediately contacted his relatives and friends to borrow some.

However, before he could borrow it, he found that someone was already discussing this matter in the chat channel.

I immediately felt regretful and felt that I had missed a great opportunity.

Shen Xue: "Brothers, Master Cao Xing is consigning the finely cast nightmare arrows again. This time there are only over a thousand of them. Those of you with the mark of the ice dragon on your hands, hurry up and grab them!"

Kong Yue: "The consignment has finally started. I've been waiting since yesterday."

Qiao Chunbo: "Me too, I directly used my connections to borrow 3,000 Ice Dragon Seals from my relatives and friends. This time I will directly exchange them for 10 arrows, haha!"

Huang Gan Gan: "Forget about it, the person above. Each person is limited to 2 sticks. You can't buy that many."

Wan Qisheng: "Damn it! Why did they add such a restriction? And the price has even gone up a little bit."

Li Liang: "That's a good thing. With this restriction, those who want to buy in bulk and then resell will have no chance!"

"Brothers, charge!"

"..."

Suddenly, the survivors began to rush into the market and start a frantic looting.

Although there is a purchase limit of two arrows, this type of arrow is too popular.

A large number of survivors traded with him, and trading prompts appeared frantically.

[Transaction successful: You lost [Finely Forged Nightmare Arrow (Green)]*2, and you gained [Ice Dragon Mark]*800...]

[Transaction successful...]

…

In less than two minutes, all 1,100 nightmare arrows that Cao Xing put on the shelf were sold out!

And he also obtained 440,000 Ice Dragon Marks again!

Yet, the survivors are still waiting.

After all, based on their understanding of Cao Xing, they all knew that he would not sell only one kind of thing in each transaction.

Usually the good stuff is left for last.

At least thousands of eyes were staring at the market at this moment.

However, after waiting for a few minutes, there was still no consignment information from Cao Xing.

Everyone was a little confused.

Some people tagged Cao Xing in the chat channel.

Li Rongrong: "@Cao Xing, Boss, are you not going to continue the consignment? You should have more powerful arrows in your hand, right?"

Zhan Yonghu: "Yes, Boss Cao Xing was selling blue and purple nightmare arrows yesterday, so he must have some more."

Mo Rong: "Boss, please take it out for trading. The sisters are waiting."

"..."

Cao Xing saw the message that tagged him in the chat, and replied with a smile: "This time, it really is gone."

"This type of arrow takes a lot of time to make. These thousand or so are all I have in reserve."

Although there were still more than 200 blue-quality arrows in his backpack, the quantity was too small. Cao Xing planned to wait until there were more before selling them.

Hearing this, the survivors of District 17 all felt a little regretful.

Cao Xing continued, "However, although the arrows are gone, I still have some other things that need to be sold."

These words immediately aroused curiosity among the survivors on the field.

"Anything else?"

"Master Cao Xing, what is it?"

"Haha, I think it must be a good thing."

"Yes, every time Boss Cao Xing sells something, it has a great effect."

Cao Xing didn't waste any time and directly attached the attributes of [Sabina's Nightmare Potion (Green)] on it.

The survivors checked it out one after another.

There was an instant exclamation.

"Damn! This potion is a bit scary! It directly reduces the attack power by more than 350. Isn't this directly reducing the attack power of a second-level monster completely?"

"Yes, even the boss-level Icebrood demon beast will have its attack power reduced by half, and the most important thing is that it also has a psychedelic effect that lasts every 5 seconds. This thing is a perfect match with nightmare arrows!"

"Too strong! This potion has ten uses left, which means 100 attacks in total. The threat from those bosses and leaders is skyrocketing!"

There are still quite a few people who know what they are talking about in the chat channel.

After listening to the analysis of the above people, the other survivors also realized the power of this drug.

"As expected of Boss Cao Xing, he even managed to get hold of such a powerful magic potion. I just wonder how many bottles he sold this time."

"Yeah, this medicine should be expensive, right?"

Cao Xing said, "I don't have much of this medicine, only 200 bottles in total, so the price is a little higher."

"1,000 Ice Dragon Marks per bottle, limited to one bottle per person."

Hearing this number, all the survivors on the field were shocked.

Because for most ordinary survivors, 1,000 Ice Dragon Marks is a considerable number, and many people cannot come up with so many at once.

But considering the powerful effect of this medicine and the number of times it has been used, everyone feels that it is worth it!

"One thousand Ice Dragon Marks is one thousand. I'll go borrow them now!"

"Ergou, lend me 500 Ice Dragon Marks. I'll return them to you after I defeat the leader-level Ice Nest Monster!"

"Is there any brother willing to lend me 1,000 Ice Dragon Marks? I can date you..."

"The guy upstairs, what are you thinking!"

"..."

The survivors mobilized their personal connections to borrow the Ice Dragon Mark.

And Cao Xing quickly set up the consignment information for this medicine.

Since Cao Xing only planned to exchange this magic potion for the Ice Dragon Mark, the transaction was very convenient.

The system prompts the screen to refresh continuously.

[Transaction successful, you lost [Sabina's Nightmare Potion (Green)]*1, you gained [Ice Dragon Mark]*1000...]

[Transaction successful...]

…

The market in District 17 was as hot as ever. In less than a minute, all the medicines in Cao Xing's hands were sold out.

A total of 200,000 Ice Dragon Marks have been obtained!

At this moment, after these two waves of transactions, the number of Ice Dragon Seals in Cao Xing's hands has officially exceeded two million, reaching 2.34 million!

"Not bad, not bad. Now I can buy all those gems and blueprints!"

Cao Xing was very excited.

And those who survived were also very excited.

"Boss Cao Xing, are there any more? These bastards are so fast, I couldn't grab any even when I was squatting by the market."

"Me too. These guys are so quick. They bought a thousand Ice Dragon Marks without hesitation."

"Boss Cao Xing, please give me some more. I think you should have some more, right?"

"..."

After a moment, Cao Xing replied, "The Nightmare Magic Potion is gone, but I will continue to sell something else. It is also a secret potion. The effect is different from the magic potion, but it is even rarer!"

Hearing this, everyone's expectations rose again.

"Haha, I knew that Boss Cao Xing would have some good stuff!"

"This time I'm going to use my hand speed that I've gained from being single for 30 years to get him in one second!"

"Why are you in such a hurry? You haven't even seen the attributes."

"..."

They didn't have to wait long, and soon saw the attributes of the [Improved Life Secret] that Cao Xing had pasted on.

Many people clicked to view.

The entire chat channel fell into a moment of silence.

Then, there was a roar like a tsunami.

…
