[Your territory member: Renis Eagle Eye successfully used the expert-level heart of power and broke through to a fifth-level leader-level creature, and the basic attributes increased by 100%]

[Due to its greatly improved attributes, it has completed its sublimated transformation, and its health has increased by an additional 50%]

…

“Buzz!”

The aura of a fifth-tier leader swept across the entire territory.

Everyone looked at him sideways.

They could all feel that there was another powerful man in this territory!

Sarah, Assam and others seemed to understand something and had relieved smiles on their faces.

As their territory grew stronger, they felt proud of it.

With an excited look on her face, Renis came to Cao Xing and said, "My Lord, I succeeded!"

She was so excited that she subconsciously grabbed Cao Xing's arm.

His powerful wrist strength even made Cao Xing feel like he was being held by an iron hoop, and his mouth twitched in pain.

But in front of his subordinates, Cao Xing was embarrassed to show it.

He said with a forced smile, "Congratulations, Renis."

"I knew you would succeed."

After hearing this, the female archer in front of him revealed a brilliant smile.

Take a look at her attributes.

[Ascalon Archer: Renis Hawkeye]

[Race: Human]

[Level: Level 40 0/500000 (Level 5 Boss-level Creature)]

…

"As expected, the fifth stage is an extremely powerful transformation!"

Don't think that Renis is neither a commander creature nor has Assam's legendary weapons.

But she has a skill called [Hunting Heart].

This skill directly increases the critical strike rate by 50%. Combined with the basic critical strike rate, it is 100% critical strike.

And her current attack power, coupled with Liu Muxue's [Blessing of Courage].

Against creatures without armor, a casual critical hit can cause more than 9,000 damage.

Plus her terrifying attack speed.

In terms of output, it is comparable to Andrew.

In other words, Renis now has the combat power to fight against sixth-level strongmen!

This is also the reason why Cao Xing always lets these core fighters advance first instead of letting himself and Liu Muxue advance first.

Indeed, as a powerful Aurora Knight, Liu Muxue's various attributes will be greatly improved after upgrading, including the values ​​of some blessing skills will also be greatly improved.

However, these blessing skills can allow the strong men under your command to fight one level higher, but they cannot give them the ability to fight two levels higher.

After all, the gap between the fourth level and the sixth level is like a huge wall!

As for people like Sarah and Assam, as long as they break through, they will have the combat power to fight against the sixth-level strongmen.

There is no shortage of fourth and fifth level warriors in his territory; what is lacking is higher level, top combat power.

Cao Xing exclaimed: "Not bad, Renis, your strength has become extremely powerful after your breakthrough."

"Also, my strength has increased a lot..."

After hearing the latter sentence, Renesus immediately realized something.

She quickly released Cao Xing's hand and apologized hurriedly, "I'm sorry, Lord..."

"I...I was too excited...I hurt you, I'm sorry..."

The woman kept apologizing, with a look of panic on her pretty face.

Seeing her like this, Cao Xing wanted to tease her.

He chuckled and said, "It's nothing, just rub it for me a few times."

"Uh-huh!"

Renesus nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

Then, she stretched out her thick hands and gently rubbed Cao Xing's arms with clumsy movements.

And gradually knelt on the ground.

Looking at it from this angle now, it seems a bit evil...

Cao Xing was standing at this time, and from this angle, he could see Renees' fluttering eyelashes and serious eyes.

There is also a large area of ​​white greasy substance under the breastplate...

At this moment, Renee was very serious and gently rubbing Cao Xing's arm.

The next moment, Cao Xing directly pressed down her hair.

“Hmm…”

Renesmee's eyes widened, "Howl... so sudden..."

"Do you like it, Renis?"

"I like...I like...I like you the most..."

Cao Xing had a faint smile on his face and gently stroked her hair.

After a moment, Renis blushed and said, "My Lord... I haven't felt your love for a long time..."

Cao Xing was stunned.

Come to think of it, it has been a long time since I last visited Renis.

He didn't say anything, but instead held the female archer with perfect body curves in his arms.

What surprised Cao Xing was that compared to the last time, there seemed to be some changes in Renis's body.

"hiss……"

Cao Xing took a deep breath and asked, "Lenis, can your breakthrough still have an impact here?"

The beauty blushed and said, "Because... because I have been getting stronger too fast recently... I can't control my body's strength well."

Cao Xing couldn't stop sighing.

This time, he didn't even have half an hour.

Cao Xing felt a little annoyed.

The beauty behind him had a shy smile in her eyes, and a hint of deep cunning hidden in her sapphire pupils.

After resting for five minutes, Cao Xing refused to believe it.

I continued to practice with this powerful female archer...

Until late at night.

Cao Xing fled back to his lord's hut...

…

…

After that, nothing special happened.

The unconscious soldiers and Edward have been sent for treatment.

Cao Xing also fell into a deep sleep.

…

…

The next day...

[Survivors please note that you have passed the third day of the construction week, and the remaining time is: 4 days]

[Weather forecast: Due to unknown reasons, there will be a warm and humid air current passing through the area of ​​​​the snowstorm today, causing the temperature in the upper air to rise temporarily, accompanied by a large-scale freezing rain and hail at the same time, the temperature will be -47℃~53℃, it is not suitable to go out, it is advisable to build territory...]

…

Seeing the system prompt, the two opened their eyes.

Cao Xing thought, "Is bad weather going to happen again?"

Liu Muxue nodded her head. "Yes, we finally had a few days of good weather after the snowstorm. I didn't expect it to happen again today."

In this world, they have experienced moderate snow, heavy snow, and even blizzards many times.

But this is the first time we have experienced freezing rain and hail.

In the chat channel, some survivors have already begun to sigh.

However, after so many days, most of the survivors have adapted to the ever-changing weather in this world.

Moreover, Cao Xing's territory is located in a plain area, and the freezing rain has little impact on him. He only needs to pay attention to drainage.

Also, people working outside the territory need to pay attention to the loss of body temperature.

After all, rain falling on your body, at the temperature of this world, will quickly take away a lot of heat.

Symptoms such as fever and cold may break out among the subjects.

Cao Xing thought to himself, "But fortunately, the medical room in my territory has been built and equipped with corresponding medical personnel."

"Plus, most of my subjects have reached level 10 strength, so their physiques are much stronger than the average person."

Thinking of this, Cao Xing felt relieved.

"Get up, Muxue. Before the freezing rain comes, we have to start the second round of territory expansion!"

Hearing this, there was some surprise in Liu Muxue's eyes.

She replied obediently: "Yeah, let's get up together."

The two of them quickly washed up again and came to the outside of the lord's cabin.

At the same time, several hundred soldiers and nearly two hundred staff members were waiting outside.

After seeing Cao Xing and Liu Muxue, everyone saluted at the same time.

"Good morning, Lord."

"Madam Lord, may you be well..."

Cao Xing nodded slightly.

At this time, Cao Yi, a citizen of the territory, stepped forward and reported, "My Lord, the three carts of ore that Dazhuang and his men brought back yesterday have all been sorted out."

"A total of 22,784 stone resources, 7,734 iron resources, 2,183 copper resources, and 216 primary magic crystals have been obtained. All have been placed in the storage box in the territory."

After hearing Cao Yi's report, a smile appeared on Cao Xing's lips.

This efficiency is indeed very high.

Not counting other things, there are 216 pieces of [Primary Magic Crystals] alone, which is equivalent to more than 20,000 magic units, equivalent to the value of two expert-level magic crystals.

Moreover, this is only one day's output of the hardworking goblins.

There are more than 20,000 stones among them.

Even though stones are just basic resources, the amount of this resource consumed in the subsequent territory expansion is enormous!

Cao Xing nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Cao Yi."

The lord Cao Yi said humbly, "This is our responsibility, dear lord."

"Now, please give us instructions for today's work!"

Da Zhuang beside him also echoed: "That's right, Lord, we can't wait to get to work!"

The staff on the field are very energetic.

But Cao Xing smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have other plans today."

Everyone stood there with some confusion, but no one asked any more questions.

Cao Xing then asked, "Who among you has experience in urban or town construction?"

Hearing this question, hundreds of pairs of eyes on the field looked at each other and shook their heads.

Seeing this, Cao Xing also sighed.

In his own territory, there are many talented people in both combat and life.

However, there is no talent in management and construction.

He thought to himself, "It seems that recruiting talents for territory management and construction should be put on the agenda as soon as possible."

"But it doesn't matter if we don't have it now. Let's expand the territory first."

"Once we find talent in this area, we can re-plan it."

"Anyway, I have giant vines, so I can move the layout of my territory however I want."

At this moment, Liu Muxue raised her hand and said softly, "Ah Xing... I used to be a city planning major. Maybe I can give it a try."

Hearing this, Cao Xing was also slightly stunned.

To be honest, he really didn't know Liu Muxue's past.

I didn't expect that her major in college was urban planning.

After all, when Cao Xing first heard the name "Liu Muxue", she was already famous in Hong Kong City.

"That's great, Mu Xue. I'll have someone draw a rough map of the territory and then you can see how to plan it better."

The female knight beside him nodded her head after hearing this, with a gentle smile on her face, as if she was happy to be able to make a contribution to the territory.

Cao Xing looked at the pale-faced painter in the crowd and asked, "Edward, how do you feel now?"

Last night, the evil spirit that had been targeting him finally showed up.

After the demon unleashed its terrifying power, an ordinary person like Edward couldn't bear it and fell into a coma. He was later carried into the infirmary.

Edward listened, forced a smile on his face, and said, "My Lord, I feel great now."

"I heard from Dr. Sabina that you dealt with the demon last night."

"Now, when I close my eyes, those horrible monsters will never appear again!"

"Praise Lord, you saved me!"

After saying this, he bowed solemnly to Cao Xing.

[Thanks to your rescue, the loyalty of territory member Edward Degas has increased. Current loyalty: 91]

…

Cao Xing also laughed after hearing this.

I have to say, Edward is really my lucky star!

At first, Cao Xing had a sudden idea to bring this down-and-out painter back to his territory because he was impressed by his advanced painting skills.

Unexpectedly, he also brought a powerful demon to the territory.

This demon also dropped two epic items for Cao Xing, greatly increasing the strength of himself and Reneece!

The help was huge!

Of course, only Cao Xing has the ability to deal with the devil.

If it were other survivors or other forces, even if the devil appeared, they would not be able to do anything to that guy, and they might even be killed by this devil.

Thinking of this, Cao Xing felt better.

"Very good, now I have a task for you."

Edward's expression froze for a moment, and then he said respectfully, "Please tell me, Lord. I will do my best to complete it!"

Cao Xing smiled and said, "It's not a difficult task."

"I need you to draw the architectural layout of our territory. How long will it take?"

The painter thought for a moment, then said, "My Lord, I need to go to a higher place to investigate first."

"But it won't take long. It will probably take about ten minutes to finish the painting."

Cao Xing listened and nodded. "Okay, then you go first."

"Everyone else, go to the cafeteria to have breakfast first, and then wait for my orders."

After hearing this, everyone looked at each other and saw the joy in each other's eyes.

The goblins said happily: "Haha, great, it's time for breakfast again."

"Yes, yes, we lived for decades and never even heard of breakfast."

"The people living in this territory are so lucky!"

After hearing this, the group of polar people said proudly, "Of course, our lord is considerate of his subordinates, kind and powerful!"

"It's your luck to be able to come to this territory!"

The goblins agreed, saying, "God of the Underworld, I agree with what this polar man says."

"Yes, yes, it would be great if we could meet the Lord earlier."

"Femos, I suggest that we go back to the Southern Continent and take over the other laborers to serve the Lord."

"Ramos, you idiot! The distance between us and the Southern Continent is many earth dragons away. You can't get there even if you run your legs off..."

Amid the goblins' chattering, the crowd gradually dispersed.

Edward quickly climbed up a distant watchtower and began to observe the terrain of the entire territory.

Then he took out a drawing board and a paintbrush and began to paint carefully.

After entering into the working state, the painter's face became more serious than ever.

He would glance at the building below from time to time, and wave the paintbrush in his hand with rapid movements.

Compared to his previous decadent look, he is like a completely different person.

Cao Xing and Liu Muxue were standing below waiting.

A few minutes later, Edward climbed down from the watchtower and quickly ran to the watchtower at the other end of the territory and began to draw the terrain of the territory.

It took about twenty minutes.

Edward went to four watchtowers in total and described them all.

He ran over breathlessly and said, "My Lord, Madam, everything has been drawn. Please take a look!"

Four large drawings appeared in his hands.

In every drawing, there is a corner of Cao Xing's territory.

At this time, they are laid out flat and pieced together, and a complete floor plan emerges.

Moreover, Edward had excellent painting skills and he restored the buildings in his territory almost one-to-one.

You can tell at a glance what kind of building this is in the territory.

Cao Xing praised: "Well done, Edward. Your painting skills are superb."

Liu Muxue beside him also chuckled and boasted.

Edward felt extremely honored to receive their praise.

He immediately straightened his body and said respectfully, "Thank you, Lord and Lady, for your approval!"

then.

Cao Xing and Liu Muxue looked at the drawing Edward had made.

However, the more they looked, the more their brows began to wrinkle slightly.

Before, they couldn't feel anything when they saw it with their naked eyes.

But now, when all these buildings appeared on paper, Cao Xing felt how messy the layout of his territory was.

Because his territory is a circle with a diameter of one kilometer.

And because it is a small development, many buildings are built temporarily.

Sometimes Cao Xing got new blueprints, such as the King's Altar, the Knight's Hall, etc., and he would just find an empty space to build them.

Sometimes when new people come to the territory, a batch of new residential houses will be built, and a few more will also be built behind these buildings.

As a result, the buildings in the territory have no specific plan and are of different heights.

It seems chaotic and disorganized.

It's not just Cao Xing. Except for some survivor lords who have obsessive-compulsive disorder, the territories of other people are basically in such a mess.

If we need to demolish and rebuild and rearrange the layout later, it will take a lot of time.

Cao Xing then said, "Mu Xue, I'm going to expand the diameter of my territory from one kilometer to two kilometers. How do you think I should plan it?"

After listening to this, Liu Muxue thought for a moment.

Her beautiful eyes looked at the buildings in the distance, as if she was thinking about something.

Cao Xing was also waiting quietly beside him.

After all, planning an entire territory is not an easy task.

From a diameter of one kilometer to two kilometers, it is equivalent to expanding the territory by four times, which is already the size of a small town.

There is room for a lot of buildings.

Planning these buildings and taking future development into account is a very brain-intensive task.

After thinking about it for about three or four minutes.

Liu Muxue seemed to have an idea.

She picked up a paintbrush and drew a circle in the center of the paper where Edward had drawn.

"According to what you told me last night, the furnace and the lord's mansion cannot be moved or dismantled."

"So, these two buildings are the core buildings of the entire territory."

"Then we will use these two buildings as the center and continue to expand outwards to divide the area into the second, third, and fourth rings."

"It needs to be divided into living areas, industrial areas, and agricultural and breeding areas..."

"Also, we need to reserve enough space to make it a combat zone or training area..."

As Liu Muxue spoke, she also continued to add some details that she had considered.

At this moment, she also demonstrated her skills as a city planning graduate, with a solemn expression.

"The living area includes the food and lodging for the people, so it needs to be a relatively quiet environment. Therefore, I suggest building it in the second ring area outside the territory."

"Then there is the third ring. I suggest that the Knight's Hall, Warrior's Camp, King's Altar and other buildings be placed here, while leaving more open space for the construction of other buildings in the future."

"The next is the industrial zone. Some machinery factories, ore sorting plants, logging plants and other noisy places need to be set up far away from residential areas, that is, in the outer areas."

As she spoke, Liu Muxue began to draw circles on the drawing paper and marked the positions of these circles.

"In addition, there are also separate areas for breeding such as farmland and cattle sheds."

"The pale tree and the back garden do not need to be moved. Just keep them as they are. Then reserve a few spaces here as the central administrative area of ​​the territory town."

"Then the vacant land in the second and third ring roads will be used to build more residential buildings if the population increases dramatically in the future."

As she continued to write.

Soon, circles of various sizes appeared on the painting on the ground.

Until almost twenty minutes had passed.

Liu Muxue finally completed her idea.

Cao Xing looked at the piece of paper on the ground that was covered with various patterns and words.

He looked at Edward beside him and asked, "Do you understand what my wife means?"

Edward nodded quickly and said, "Understood, Lord!"

"Give me ten minutes and I will draw the Lord's wife's idea."

Cao Xing nodded.

And this talented person with [Advanced Painting Mastery] began to show his talent once again.

“Rustle… rustle…”

He spread a piece of paper on the ground, and then painted while looking at the areas circled by Liu Muxue.
