Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem

After speaking, Cao Xing blacklisted the other person directly.

A few hundred kilometers away from Cao Xing, a human survivor trying to continue sending messages suddenly saw a system prompt.

[System Prompt: You have been blacklisted by the other party. Communication is not possible.]

He stood there dumbfounded, then said angrily, "Damn brat!"

...

After the trading ended.

Cao Xing first gave the iron sword and iron shield to Liu Muxue.

Then, he began to hand-teach Liu Muxue the postures for combat.

Cao Xing took Liu Muxue's hand and said, "Saozi, hold the shield with your left hand and attack the enemy with the weapon in your right hand."

"The iron sword you are using now, just remember to thrust, slash, and chop - these three simple moves are all you need."

Liu Muxue nodded shyly, clumsily thrusting her sword forward, then looked towards Cao Xing.

"Is... is this how it's done?"

Watching her tender and powerless thrust, which had no killing intent, Cao Xing couldn't help but find it somewhat cute.

Was this supposed to be a practice thrust done excitedly by a thug?

Cao Xing shook his head, moved behind Liu Muxue, one hand on the shield and the other lifting her right hand.

"Saozi, your thrusting posture should be like this."

At this moment, Liu Muxue felt the presence of Cao Xing behind her, her face flushed with embarrassment.

He grabbed Liu Muxue's wrist and thrust forward.

Woosh!

The thrust made a whooshing sound.

"Uh..."

Liu Muxue let out a soft complain.

The recent action was too forceful, causing their bodies to press tightly together.

Cao Xing even felt the touch of her rounded hips.

"Cough cough!"

Cao Xing quickly stepped back half a step, maintaining a safe distance.

Liu Muxue naturally felt the contact as well, her cheeks reddening immensely, and her legs growing a bit weak.

But she still bit her teeth and persevered in her learning.

Cao Xing continued to teach Liu Muxue swordplay techniques.

Because she was working hard to absorb the knowledge taught by Cao Xing, Liu Muxue quickly got into the groove.

Half an hour later, both were slightly sweaty, and they gradually parted ways.

Following Cao Xing's instructions, Liu Muxue began to repeat the practice of the moves again and again.

Cao Xing watched from the side, nodding in satisfaction.

Then, he checked his territory's resources.

[Food: Bread*45, Snake Meat*10, Wolf Meat*111]

[Wood*92, Coal*107, Stone*45, Iron*100]

Cao Xing thought to himself, "The bonfire and furnace consumed quite a bit of coal last night, but it also saved me a lot of wood."

"Currently, eight Polar People are mining resources together; the efficiency has increased significantly."

"By today, I should be able to build both the Sewing Shop and the Blacksmith Shop."

Cao Xing nodded in satisfaction.

This progress was fast; while most survivors were still figuring things out, Cao Xing's territory had already taken preliminary shape.

Next, as long as he kept up this pace, it wouldn't be long before he could upgrade his territory level and build more advanced constructions.

Then, he could raise a barracks and train these Polar People into Combat Units!

Paired with Cao Xing's Talent, they would be monsters capable of infinite healing!

The future is full of hope!

However, just then, a System Prompt interrupted Cao Xing's train of thought.

[System Prompt: Your Territory Member, Assam, is under attack...]

Reading this prompt, Cao Xing's heart sank.

Damn! My milk tea... no, my Knight is under attack?

Who is it?

To know, Assam has already reached Level 10 as a Knight, and together with the Frost Wolf, they have no match below First-tier.

This situation clearly indicated that Assam had met a formidable enemy!

Liu Muxue, who was nearby, also heard the same prompt.

She came next to Cao Xing, concern apparent in her eyes.

Cao Xing reassured, "Don't worry, Assam has four permanent Statuses applied by us; as long as he's not killed in one strike, his ability to preserve life shouldn't be an issue."

After a few minutes of waiting, there was no news of Assam's death.

Cao Xing inwardly breathed a sigh of relief.

Both watched the direction from which Assam had left, hoping he would return safely.

A dozen minutes later, Cao Xing saw a strong figure limping back.

It was the Frost Wolf Knight, Assam.

Seeing this, Cao Xing immediately pulled out [Barrett] and went to Assam's side.

Liu Muxue and Yilena also walked over quickly.

"What happened?" Cao Xing, carrying Barrett, looked around warily.

Assam jumped down from the Frost Wolf and knelt on one knee, "Lord, I am terribly sorry!"

"I encountered a powerful enemy outside, neither Frost nor I were a match for its strike!"

"If it weren't for the power you have added to us in advance, we might not have been able to return..."

Hearing this, Cao Xing frowned, then he checked the status of the Frost Wolf.

He saw a change in Frost's Life Value entry.

[Frost Wolf: Frost]

```

[Life Value: 1386/1540]

[Status: Broken Bone (Life Limit decreased by 10%, Move Speed reduced by 20%)]

```

Cao Xing said, "Give me the details. What did you encounter?"

"Yes, Lord!"

Then Assam began to recount their experiences.

After listening, Cao Xing frowned, "You mean to say, about three kilometers from our camp, there is a powerful Snowy Blizzard Bear, and this Fierce Bear can also emit electricity?"

Assam replied respectfully, "Yes, Lord, that Fierce Bear possesses infinite strength, a single slap sent both me and Frost flying!"

"Its power is too formidable; only Second Order Knights in our tribe can overcome it!"

Cao Xing pondered.

A Second Order Knight to combat it means that this monster's level is at least above 10.

Furthermore, according to Assam's description, this Fierce Bear can even emit electricity. It was probably not that simple.

Thinking this, Cao Xing nodded, "Assam, treat Frost's injuries, then take me to the place where you discovered the Fierce Bear."

It seemed Assam was somewhat surprised, "Lord, do you mean to confront that Fierce Bear?"

Cao Xing shook his head, "I didn't say we'd definitely confront it; we'll first observe its strength."

The Snowy Blizzard Bear was only 3 kilometers away from their camp, which was extremely unsettling.

Once the four-day newbie protection ends, that Fierce Bear would easily destroy Cao Xing's territory!

Moreover, even during the newbie protection, if the Snowy Blizzard Bear approaches, it would pose a significant threat to Cao Xing.

The Polar People gathering supplies outside the camp would all fall victim to it.

Even Liu Muxue's eyes reflected a worried look.

"Axing…"

Cao Xing shook his head, "Don't worry Saozi, we'll just take a distant look."

"But it shouldn't be a problem, if it dares to come over, I'll blast some holes in its body!"

After speaking, Cao Xing showed the [Barrett] he had in his hand.

With this powerful weapon, monsters below level 20 basically stood no chance.

Liu Muxue nodded.

Beside her, Assam was already treating the Frost Wolf's broken bones.

A series of 'crack' sounds could be heard.

"Woo…"

The Frost Wolf groaned, and a [-172] damage figure appeared above its head.

It wasn't long before green numbers [[+5, +5]] began to emerge.

Having the [Eternal Power] Talent was convenient.

Otherwise, with the tremendous Blood Volume of Assam and the Frost Wolf, healing would not only consume many of their supplies but also a lot more time.

Two or three minutes later.

"Lord, Frost has recovered," Assam reported respectfully from the side.

Cao Xing nodded, "Now, start leading the way."

"At your command, Lord!"

Assam mounted the Frost Wolf and headed towards the snowy wilderness.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Heavy footsteps sounded.

Cao Xing walked forward with Yilena and Liu Muxue.

Half an hour later.

They arrived at the foot of a snowy mountain.

And ahead, they seemed to see a deep cave.

A fierce aura faintly emanated from within.

They continued to approach, and a System Prompt appeared in front of them.

[System Prompt: Snow Plain Fierce Bear's Lair (Blue): A powerful creature lives inside, it is the overlord of the vicinity, extremely dangerous, please approach with caution!]

Cao Xing frowned.

Even the system was warning of extreme danger; the monster inside was no ordinary formidable creature!

"Lord, do you need me to lure it out?" The Frost Wolf Knight Assam volunteered.

Cao Xing asked, "Can you ensure your safety?"

Assam nodded, "Both Frost and I have been empowered by the Lord. As long as we are cautious, escaping shouldn't be a problem."

After pondering for a moment, Cao Xing nodded, "Then go ahead."

"At your command!"

Assam, riding on the Frost Wolf, swiftly circled to the other side of the snowy area, about five hundred meters away from Cao Xing and the others.

Then, the Frost Wolf beneath him howled towards the sky.

"Awooo!!"

The sound was loud and piercing!

The next moment, a roar similar to that of an ancient giant beast echoed from the den.

"ROAR!!!"

The roar was so fierce that the sound waves, like substance, shook the snow around the cave into the air.

Cao Xing and the others all felt a terrifying oppressive force.

He immediately set up the Barrett, lying down on the snowy ground.

Just then, Cao Xing suddenly felt a tremor beneath him.

Thump! Thump thump!

As if something was rushing towards them at high speed.

Then, a massive beast at least eight meters tall, entirely white, burst out from the cave!

"ROAR!!!"

The terrifying roar echoed across the entire snowy plain!
