Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem

“Later, this piece of jade ended up in my hands, and I never knew what it was for. Lord Cao Xing is so capable and knowledgeable, I’m sure he can figure out its purpose.”

“Oh? A magical jade?”

Cao Xing became interested, “Alright, let’s take a look then.”

A hint of a smile appeared on Gracie’s mature face.

“Lord Cao Xing, please follow me.”

With that, she turned around and walked away.

Cao Xing followed behind her, watching the voluptuous figure hidden under that petite body, her round and perky hips gently swaying with her steps.

Especially in the thick fog surrounding them, it created a dreamy aesthetic.

Soon, Cao Xing arrived at her private residence.

The temperature inside was as warm as always.

In the room, Cao Xing randomly picked a chair to sit on.

The baron’s mother busily brought over a kettle, then brewed a cup of hot tea for him.

“Lord Cao Xing, these tea leaves were brought from the Baron Mansion, please enjoy.”

Cao Xing took a sip and praised, “Not bad, very fragrant.”

Gracie’s face blossomed with a charming smile.

“Gracie, let’s see your jade.” Cao Xing said directly.

The baron’s mother nodded gently, “Lord Cao Xing, please wait a moment.”

Then, she went to the cabinet beside the bed, slowly squatted down, and her tight pants highlighted her plump legs once more.

Gracie opened the cabinet and rummaged through a pile of luggage.

Soon, she took out an item.

The item was about the size of a palm, wrapped in a layer of silk cloth, showing that Gracie valued it greatly.

She slowly walked over to Cao Xing and said, “Lord Cao Xing, please take a look.”

As she uncovered the silk cloth, a dazzling green light burst forth, so bright that it was hard to keep one’s eyes open.

When the light subsided, Cao Xing saw a jade with a slightly green glow, its surface incredibly smooth, like a piece of art.

“Is this the jade you mentioned?” Cao Xing asked in confusion.

Gracie nodded lightly, “Yes, when I married into the Baron Mansion, my father gave this jade to me, but I never knew its use.”

“Let me take a look.” Cao Xing said.

“Alright.”

Gracie gently approached and handed the jade to him.

[Obtained: Bright Green Jade (Orange)*1]

…

“Is it an epic quality jade?”

Cao Xing’s eyes revealed surprise.

With expectant eyes, he looked at the attributes.

[Bright Green Jade (Orange)]

[Quality: Epic]

[Effect 1: During forging, adding a Bright Green Jade can increase equipment’s basic attributes by 10%~30%, and upgrade the use level by 10 levels (can be applied to legendary equipment, up to 3 times)]

[Effect 2: Can replenish all divine power for a complete piece of equipment, restoring it to peak status.]

…

…

“This stone actually can enhance equipment attributes and even restore divine power, quite powerful!”

The former effect is easy to understand, it means adding during crafting can enhance the inherent basic attack power and armor of equipment.

The latter effect should apply to some legendary equipment that is affected specially but not broken or damaged.

Such as Assam’s [Lake Lady’s Sword], Isabell’s [Light Holy Scripture], and so on.

Just looking at these two effects shows the jade’s value is incredibly high.

Cao Xing replied, “This stone is very precious, it can even make some legendary equipment more powerful.”

“Your father certainly left you with a treasure.”

The baron’s mother, upon hearing this, smiled as well, “I see…”

“Lord Cao Xing indeed has a broad perspective.”

Cao Xing shook his head, what broad perspective, it was just the system’s built-in identification function.

With that, he returned the jade to her.

Gracie took it back and examined it in her palm, moments later, she seemed to make a decision.

“Lord Cao Xing, please accept this jade.”

Then, she pushed the Bright Green Jade toward Cao Xing again.

Cao Xing was slightly stunned, then asked in confusion, “Such a precious jade, you’re giving it to me?”

The baron’s mother nodded gently, “Yes, I know although you’re young, you’re very capable, this jade can only reveal its value in your hands.”

At this point, Gracie paused slightly and then said somewhat awkwardly, “Besides, I have a small request.”

Cao Xing’s expression turned peculiar, knowing it’s indeed true there’s no free lunch.

However, he was quite tempted by this Bright Green Jade, so he said, “Tell me, what’s the request.”

Gracie tentatively asked, “Sir, Fitz suddenly got promoted to a Viscount, that should be due to your help, right?”

Cao Xing squinted slightly, “Is it that obvious?”

“Yes.”

She nodded gently, “I was a bit suspicious before, this child usually knows nothing but play, managing even a bit of the family’s assets at the Baron Mansion is considered good.”

“Now suddenly gaining the King’s favor and being granted the title of Viscount, it’s quite strange.”

“Now I understand, you’re backing him.”

“So I wish to request you to continue taking care of this child in the future, this jade will be my token of gratitude, a gift to you.”

Cao Xing glanced at the woman.

Indeed, the Baron’s mother was smart, much more than Fitz Walker.

As for the request, she didn’t need to ask, as Cao Xing would have done it anyway.
