Chapter 1693: Chapter 569: Eliza’s Secret, Subduing the Green Snake
After these days of battle, the warriors of the territory have gained nearly two thousand Golden Points for themselves, now already surpassing three thousand.
Cao Xing exclaimed, "Not bad, with so many Golden Points, it’s more than enough to exchange for that Dominator Level Recruitment Scroll."
"Calculating like this, there are still three days left, which should be enough to get me another seven or eight hundred Golden Points."
"That means, after exchanging for that scroll, I still have approximately a thousand points left."
This is certainly not a small number.
After all, in the Golden Points Store, an entire Level 50 Epic Set costs only seven or eight hundred Golden Points!
That is to say, besides that scroll, Cao Xing can still exchange for a set of Epic Equipment.
However, he wasn’t in a rush to exchange, because there are things he still needs to deal with.
Soon, he arrived at the resident area of the territory.
Then he directly pushed open the door to Eliza’s room.
At this moment, the little girl was crouching by the bed, sneakily hiding something in the cabinet.
Seeing this scene, Cao Xing called out.
"Eliza."
"Ahhh!!!"
Eliza exclaimed in surprise, then quickly stood up, eyes wide as she looked toward the door area.
Upon discovering it was Cao Xing, she gradually let out a breath of relief.
"Oh, it’s just the Lord, I thought it was someone else, scared me to death..."
Cao Xing stared at her back and asked, "What are you hiding?"
Upon hearing this question, the little girl’s gaze dodged a bit, then she shook her head and said, "Not hiding anything, hehe..."
"Hmm? You dare to not tell the truth to your Lord?" Cao Xing asked with a not-so-kind tone.
Eliza hastily replied, "Absolutely not, Eliza listens to the Lord most."
"Then tell me what you are hiding."
Under Cao Xing’s pressure, the little girl had to relent and then said, "Alright... Then let the Lord see it..."
After speaking, she awkwardly crouched down and opened the wooden cabinet.
Cao Xing instantly saw inside, there was a white...
Let’s call it a hat...
Currently, this hat was halfway knitted, the stitches were quite random, but its shape was quite abstract.
To call it a hat, it looked more like Lazy Sheep’s hairstyle...
"Is this... made by yourself?" Cao Xing asked.
Eliza held the hat in her hands, somewhat embarrassed, replied, "Yes! I was planning to finish it and then give it to you as a gift."
"Although it’s a bit ugly, if the Lord dislikes it then forget it."
Cao Xing took it over and examined for a while, then commented, "For a beginner, the craftsmanship is rather good."
Then he returned the ’hat’ to her.
"Keep working on it, I’ll accept this gift."
Upon hearing this, the little girl grinned brightly.
"Great, I will keep trying my best!"
"Once it’s finished, I’ll personally put it on for the Lord."
Cao Xing’s mouth twitched, wearing it isn’t necessary...
Then, he changed the topic and asked, "Tell me, Eliza, what happened during the last Fog Disaster?"
"Also, how did you become targeted by creatures in the fog?"
Upon hearing this question, the smile on the little girl’s face gradually disappeared.
Then, with some seriousness, replied, "Specifically, I don’t know what happened either..."
"That day, I had just come out of the cowshed when I heard someone calling my name in the thick fog, but I remembered your advice not to run outside the territory, so I quickly thought of returning to my room."
"But before taking a few steps, the fog suddenly expanded and engulfed me, then I lost consciousness..."
"Later in a daze, I seemed to hear some voices."
"They said there’s a great existence’s consciousness within me, intending to awaken it from my body..."
Upon hearing this, Cao Xing’s expression became somewhat grim as he asked, "Do you know who they referred to as the great existence?"
Eliza shook her head.
After thinking for a moment, Cao Xing switched to another question, "Have you noticed any abnormalities in your body over the years?"
The little girl lifted her head, bewildered, looking at Cao Xing.
Then shook her head and said, "No! Eliza has always been like the rest of you, and my father and everyone in the village praised me as a healthy child!"
Cao Xing gazed at Eliza.
Her eyes were as pure as ever.
After a moment, he said, "I understand, you don’t need to worry."
"Just continue as before."
At this point, Cao Xing changed the focus of his speech.
"Of course, if you truly change someday and don’t recognize me as your Lord..."
Eliza initially looked blankly at him, then a weird smile appeared.
"Hehehe... What will happen?"
Cao Xing replied, "It’s your choice, it doesn’t matter even if you don’t recognize me anymore."
Upon hearing this, the little girl chuckled foolishly, "Hehehe... So the Lord really cares about me!"
"Don’t worry, no matter how Eliza changes, you will always be my Lord!"
"Let’s hope..."
Cao Xing shook his head and turned to walk towards the outside of the house.
Just then, Eliza suddenly took a running start, then leaped onto Cao Xing’s back, clinging to him like a koala.
Cao Xing instinctively reached out to hold her thigh.
Before he could speak, Eliza leaned close to his ear and asked, "Lord, do you not trust Eliza?"
Cao Xing remained silent.
