After the little girl finished speaking, she burst into tears again.

When she said taken away, she meant that they were captured by the group of hunters and subjected to some evil ritual.

Cao Xing and Liu Muxue looked at each other.

Obviously, the little girl who lost her father fell into the hands of this group of crazy hunters. If Cao Xing had not arrived, her fate would be predictable.

Liu Muxue looked at Cao Xing and said softly, "Ah Xing, can we take her back to the camp?"

Cao Xing thought for a moment and nodded.

Now that the camp is getting back on track, it doesn't matter if there's just one more mouth to feed.

And this little girl is also a survivor, maybe she can be of help in the future.

Liu Muxue gently consoled her, "Little sister, are you willing to follow me back to our camp?"

The little girl named Tong Chuchu gradually stopped crying. She asked in confusion, "Is there any food in your camp? Chuchu hasn't eaten for a long time..."

After listening to her, Liu Muxue stroked her head and said, "Of course there is. The owner of this territory is the big brother over there. He is very powerful."

There was admiration in her tone.

Tong Chuchu looked at Cao Xing with a hint of fear and curiosity.

Then, she remembered something and asked tentatively, "Can I take my mother with me?"

"Dad won't be back, and Mom is still alone in the camp..."

Cao Xing was stunned.

Yes, this version is a family team mode. Since Tong Chuchu is with her father, her mother must be in the camp as well.

However, this problem put Cao Xing in a dilemma.

After all, human survivors are not like the natives and will not easily rebel against their overlords, and their loyalty can also be seen.

He still knows the truth that people's hearts are hidden.

The reason why he was willing to bring this little girl was because she had little fighting ability and posed no threat to Cao Xing.

If it's adults, it's hard to say.

So, Cao Xing opened the system interface and asked, "What should I do if I want other survivors to join my territory?"

The system prompt appears immediately.

【The answer to this question is the territory merging function, which currently has two methods. 】

[Method 1: Invite the other party to join the territory as a new lord, and share building permissions, resources, etc.]

[Method 2: Recruit the other party to join the territory as a citizen. The other party only has simple residence and construction permissions, and cannot attack friendly units.]

Seeing the second method, Cao Xing was certain.

"Very good. We can recruit the other survivors into the territory as citizens."

"That way, I won't have to worry about newly recruited survivors causing damage to my territory."

Cao Xing looked at the little girl and asked, "Do you still remember where your camp is?"

The little girl nodded and said, "I remember my mother taught me how to read a small map."

"Our camp is about five kilometers away from here."

Cao Xing and Liu Muxue looked at each other.

It's no wonder we were targeted by those rangers since we were so close.

Liu Muxue asked softly, "Ah Xing, can we go over and take a look?"

Cao Xing thought for a moment, "If it's 5 kilometers, we can get through."

"However, whether she is willing to join our territory depends on her mother's choice."

After hearing this, Liu Muxue immediately showed a gentle smile on her face.

She knew that Cao Xing would agree.

After hearing this, the little girl gradually stopped crying and kept thanking Cao Xing.

"Thank you, big brother. Chuchu will remember your kindness for the rest of her life!"

In this world, two days of cruel life have made her much more mature.

Cao Xing shook his head, then looked at the other humans in the tent.

These are the natives of this world.

Cao Xing said directly: "Do you know Jasmine and Sapphire?"

The six humans on the ground looked at each other.

One of the older humans said, "Yes, they are our companions."

Cao Xing nodded, "Very good, they are now residents of my territory, and it was she who told me that you were captured by the rangers."

"So now, are you willing to submit to me and join my territory?"

Cao Xing did not waste his words. His purpose this time was to expand the military strength of the territory.

The older human asked tentatively, "My Lord, where are the rangers outside?"

Cao Xing replied: "As you can see, I have killed them all."

The next moment, these humans said respectfully at the same time: "We are willing, respected lord."

Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction, then asked the tall Assam to go over, cut the ropes on these humans, and rescue them.

[Recruitment successful: Colin Hopper, Lujo Lowrey, Marin Kuhn... join your territory, territory population +6]

There were another group of Western names, three men and three women. Cao Xing's mouth twitched.

He pointed directly at the slightly older human and said, "From today on, you are called Cao Yi, Cao Er, and Cao San."

"For women, the four flowers start from the fourth flower, and they are called the fourth flower, the fifth flower, and the sixth flower."

These humans looked at each other, then nodded and said, "Thank you, Lord, for the name."

Then, a bunch of notifications about increasing favorability sounded.

Cao Xing glanced at their attributes.

【Citizen: Cao Yi】

【Level: Level 3】

[Talent: Basic speaking skills (give a speech and soothe the emotions of the people)]

【Loyalty: 70】

【Hunger level: 44】

…

【Citizens: Four Flowers】

【Level: Level 2】

[Talent: Basic cooking skills (cooked food increases satiety by an additional 20%)]

【Loyalty: 72】

【Hunger level: 47】

…

Seeing the talents of these subjects, Cao Xing's eyes lit up.

Wow, there are two people with special talents.

Although the other subjects do not have talents, they are all at levels 2 to 4.

The quality of this batch of subjects is very high!

In this way, Cao Xing will have enough manpower to allocate and build various territory facilities!

After recruiting this group of people, the population limit of his territory became: 25/50.

After conquering all these refugees.

Cao Xing saw a yellowed wooden box in the corner of the camp.

As you move closer, a system prompt will appear.

[Ranger's Storage Box (White): Can be opened]

Cao Xing clicked to open it directly.

[Get white bread*17, get wheat seeds*72, get milk*5, get copper*7, get a letter from the church (special item)]

There were quite a lot of supplies inside, and Cao Xing began to check them out.

【White bread, 1 white bread = 2 food】

…

【Wheat seeds (white): can be planted on reclaimed land. ）

Cao Xing was delighted, "Huh? Can I farm now?"

In this way, you will have a fixed source of food and don't have to worry about running out of food!

However, in order to farm, you need to first reclaim a piece of land near your territory.

In addition, a shed must be built on it, otherwise if a snowstorm occurs, all the seeds sown will be destroyed.

Cao Xing continued to check.
