Capítulo 1215: Chapter 422: The Final Day, Pre-War Preparations!
“Looks like I’ll need to search for more advanced communication equipment in the future.”
Cao Xing stroked his chin, continuing to ponder.
“By the looks of it, Fitz Walker might have already reached the Eternal Frost Main City. I wonder how things are going for him over there.”
“Did he follow my instructions to capture those Black Robed Priests?”
Shaking his head, he cast these thoughts aside.
After all, Fitz Walker was merely a pawn casually placed by Cao Xing.
It’s great if he succeeds.
Even if he fails, it won’t affect him much.
Meanwhile,
a System Prompt appeared.
[Your Lord Mansion has successfully upgraded to Level 9, population +1000…]
…
Cao Xing’s eyes lit up, “The Lord Mansion has finally been upgraded!”
His gaze turned towards the center of the Territory.
After upgrading to Level 9, the Lord Mansion increased in height by one meter, and now the entire building is almost over ten meters high.
It looks imposing.
Of course, the most important thing isn’t the height, but the population increase after the upgrade.
“Great, it looks like I can exchange for 1,000 Ascalon Soldiers before midnight to form bonds!”
“Then, our combat power will increase significantly!”
Keep in mind, Cao Xing’s current combat personnel have not yet surpassed one thousand!
If he can exchange them, the overall power of the legion will be greatly improved.
However, he did not rush to exchange.
Instead, he planned to wait for the challenges of Liu Muxue and the others to end before acting.
First, see how many Points can be earned today before deciding how to distribute them.
In the ensuing time, Cao Xing proceeded to make other preparations within the Territory.
The first task was gathering [Square Stone Engraving].
This is one of the main materials for crafting the [Artisan God Statue].
Cao Xing hoped to see this statue constructed when he returned from the Battle of the Oracle.
“Hope to find this stuff in the Market.”
He thus opened the [Market] interface.
Instantly, a vast amount of auction information appeared.
Cao Xing directly entered keywords in the search interface.
Then clicked search.
The System swiftly filtered through tens of thousands of auction items across the Four Districts.
A moment later, two pieces of information appeared!
“Oh? There really are some!”
Cao Xing’s spirits were lifted instantly.
He glanced at the auction information above.
One was posted by a person named Zhou Chenyu, who needed Epic Equipment.
Cao Xing frowned slightly.
Although this material is indeed precious, using it to exchange for an epic-level Weapon is somewhat exorbitant.
Cao Xing looked at the second auction information.
[Auction Items: Square Stone Engraving]
[Required Items: Advanced Construction blueprints, Skill Books, equipment or Weapons of Golden Quality and above.]
[Auction Person: Bai Zhi]
[Seller’s note: Check the requirements yourself for this advanced material.]
…
“Oh? It’s that woman.”
Being the second on the Four Districts Rankings, Bai Zhi’s name, while not as influential as Cao Xing, is fairly well-known.
Moreover, she previously sold an Epic-level Skill Book to Cao Xing—Angel Descent.
Therefore, Cao Xing had some impression of this woman.
With her strength, obtaining Square Stone Engraving wasn’t surprising.
Moreover, Bai Zhi’s asking price was also much fairer, only requiring Golden Quality equipment or Weapons.
In Cao Xing’s backpack, there were indeed one or two pieces of discarded Golden Equipment.
The levels are somewhat low though, not sure if this woman would be willing to accept them.
He happened to have her as a friend, so Cao Xing opened the private chat interface to inquire.
Cao Xing: “I’m interested in the Square Stone Engraving you’re auctioning. What type of Golden Equipment do you need?”
Bai Zhi seemed to be busy grinding monsters at the moment.
A few minutes later, she replied.
Bai Zhi: “Preferably something like a sword, or a shield would do.”
Cao Xing once again pondered for a moment, then replied.
“I don’t have a Golden Quality Longsword, only a Level 10 Golden Shield, do you want it?”
Bai Zhi: “The level is too low…”
“Do you want any other Golden Equipment?”
Moments later, the woman said: “Forget it, I’ll just give it to you directly.”
“Hmm? Give it to me?”
“Yes, it’s not a particularly important item, I’ll notify someone among the territory to trade with you in the Market.”
Clearly, this woman was a decisive person as well.
A few minutes later, sure enough, someone sent a trading request to Cao Xing.
And in the trading bar, they placed a hexagonal stone.
It was precisely the Square Stone Engraving he needed.
Cao Xing thought for a moment, and placed a whole piece of [Lizard Dominator’s Meat (Orange)] on the bar.
The two parties quickly completed a transaction.
With the item in hand, Cao Xing chuckled: “Great, all the necessary preparations are nearly complete.”
Next, he went on with other tasks within the territory.
On Bai Zhi’s side, upon hearing from her people,
Cao Xing didn’t take her material for free but placed an extremely powerful Beast Meat on the trading bar, she was slightly surprised.
When she saw the Attributes of this Lizard Meat, she was more shocked on the spot.
As the Squad Leader of a legion, Bai Zhi naturally knew the importance of such Lizard Meat.
A moment later, her lips curled slightly.
…
…
Time flew by.
Soon, it was around six thirty in the afternoon.
Dazhuang had already driven the transportation convoy back to the territory.
As Kandar predicted, the truck beds of the six transportation vehicles were packed full of ore.
Among them were white [Frost White Crystal Ore], gold-containing [Gold Ore], and a small amount of [Secret Silver Ore].
All these ores, once sorted out, would yield a sizable profit.
Meanwhile, the challenge of the Zhuoma Giant Beast had officially ended on the other side.
[Your Territory Member: Sarah Blade Dance successfully killed Zhuoma Giant Beast Level 50, Fifth Order Commander-level creature…]
[Your output ranking is: 1, and in this battle, you and your subjects dealt a total of 241 million damage, earning Points reward: 24.1 thousand]
[Received Ranking Reward: Zhuoma’s Scale Fragment*1, Golden Points+5]
