Chapter 546: Sudden wealth, massive promotion! (5000)

“My Lord, we have all returned!”

Cao Xing took a quick look and found that there were no casualties, and a smile appeared on his face.

“Yes, you are all great, I am proud of you!”

Hearing the lord’s approval, the soldiers looked at Cao Xing with excitement!

This time, they traveled tens of thousands of kilometers back and forth and it took them four or five days to kill their enemies!
It can be said that it was a pretty beautiful win!

At this time, the fourteen leading captains stepped forward and handed over dozens of backpacks.

“My Lord, these are the supplies we collected inside, please take a look.”

Cao Xing took it.

And when he saw the massive amount of resources in the backpack, the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but rise wildly!

Damn! There are so many things in here!
He saw no less than two or three hundred expert-level power hearts alone.

Then there are the souls of various elites, leaders, and chief-level beings, of which there are also many.

After that, there is a lot of food and miscellaneous resources!
It’s a massive amount!

If all these resources were digested, it would definitely greatly enhance the strength of his territory again.

Cao Xing suppressed his inner excitement.

Then he transferred all the resources inside, except the food, into his own dragon pattern bag.

Anyway, his backpack was big enough to hold all these things.

[Obtain: Hero’s Heart*1]

[Obtain: Blood of the Strong*1]

【get……】

Soon, all kinds of resources were collected by Cao Xing.

Finally, some statistics were conducted.

He first glanced at the number of various Hearts of Power, adding up what he had gained previously at the headquarters.

The number of Hearts of Power here is:

[Hero’s Heart]*1
【Master Level Power Heart】*32
[Expert Power Heart] *285
[High Power Heart] *1894
…

…

The number of hearts of power of four grades exceeded two thousand.

It can be said that this was the time when he obtained the most Hearts of Power in his history.

Then, there are the souls.

Also took a look at the quantity.

[Seventh-level Red Robe Bishop Soul (Commander-level)*1]

[Sixth and seventh level white robe priest soul (leader level) * 15]

[84th, th, th level black robe priest soul (boss level) *]

[357th, th, th level hunter elite soul * ]

……

The number of these souls also reached more than four hundred.

Cao Xing almost couldn’t hold back his smile.

And then there are other miscellaneous gains.

Including various iron, copper, mithril ores, cloth, etc.

All together, it’s almost two million units.

This is an astonishingly huge sum of money!

Even though Cao Xing’s territory now has so many staff members, it still takes about three or four months of mining to produce such a large amount.

It can be called instant wealth!
In addition, there is another more important gain.

Those books of attributes.

Looked at the number.

[Large attribute book (strength, agility, spirit, constitution) * 1348 books]

[Medium-sized attribute book*2976 books]

…

These attribute books are also a good resource. If there are enough of them, they can improve many attributes of territory members.

“Come to think of it, it has been a long time since the last battle of Duolun Lake City, and we haven’t used these attribute books to improve them.”

“I don’t know how much it adds up to now.”

Then, Cao Xing took a look at his backpack. The total number of books of various attributes in it exceeded tens of thousands!

“Wow! I didn’t realize there are so many.”

“It’s a good feeling!”

In addition, there are various weapons and equipment.

There are 16 gold-quality weapons and 7 pieces of equipment.

There are 95 weapons of blue and purple quality and 64 pieces of equipment.

Not to mention the white and green quality ones, there are thousands of them!
“There are so many damn things.”

For a moment, Cao Xing didn’t know which resource to use first.

After thinking about it for a while, Cao Xing quickly made a decision.

Obviously, the souls should be digested first, after all, these souls have level restrictions.

Once the level of those fighters exceeds the level of the soul, they can no longer be used.

So Cao Xing shouted.

“All those who participated in the battle this time, step out.”

After all, they are the ones fighting this time, so these resources should naturally be provided to these warriors first.

Soon, more than 1,400 people stood up.

Cao Xing continued, “Now, each branch of the army will send a captain to come to me to collect the soul.”

“Then these souls will be rewarded to the warriors who killed the most enemies!”

Upon hearing the order, seven or eight captains came out one after another.

Since there are a total of 600 Ascalon warriors going on this trip, they only need to let Yaskin come up to receive it.

Cao Xing first distributed approximately 25 elite souls to each type of soldier according to the ratio.

The Ascalon warriors received more souls, a total of 150 souls.

Soon, more than 300 elite souls were distributed.

Then, the captains of each legion turned around and began to distribute rewards to the soldiers who ranked first in killing enemies in this battle.

The fighters who received souls had excitement in their eyes!

The others who didn’t get any seemed very envious.

At the same time, they secretly decided in their hearts that if there is such an action next time, they must perform well.

Try to kill more enemies and get the reward from the lord!
At this moment, more than 300 fighters held the souls in their hands and shouted excitedly!
“Thank you Lord Lord!”

Cao Xing waved his hand and said, “Let’s start the breakthrough.”

“Yes!”

As soon as these words were spoken, the three hundred or so warriors simultaneously slapped their souls into their bodies.

“Buzz! Buzz!”

Waves of soul fluctuations appeared.

The noise of more than 300 warriors breaking through the elite at the same time was still very shocking.

In the blink of an eye, the powerful aura fluctuations covered the entire territory.

Their breakthrough was quick, and in less than three minutes, system prompts kept appearing.

[Your territory member: Feng transforms into an elite creature, basic attributes increase by 30%, and acquires a new skill: Eagle Fall]

[Your territory member: Vito Newman transforms into an elite creature, basic attributes increase by 30%, and acquires a new skill: Five-segment Slash]

【your……】

……

Continuous system prompts sounded one after another.

Soon, the breakthrough of all the fighters was nearing completion.

Cao Xing did a quick count and found that there were 357 elite souls in total, and 301 of them were successful in the end.

This probability cannot be said to be low, it can even be said to be an explosion of luck!
Cao Xing was very satisfied with this result.

And with the breakthrough of this group of warriors, Cao Xing’s territory strength, prosperity, and population are skyrocketing!
After all, an ordinary creature takes up 1 population, and an elite creature takes up 2 population.

This is equivalent to increasing the population by more than 300 people at once.

But it doesn’t matter. Anyway, Cao Xing’s lord castle has been upgraded to level 13, with a population of 10019.

So the population limit is still sufficient.

Cao Xing thought to himself, “Next, I have to digest those leader-level souls.”

“84 of them, which can also increase the level.”

He glanced at the fighters below and continued, “In the territory, except for the elite creatures just now, all others who have reached the elite level should step out.”

Upon hearing the order, four to five to a dozen elite members from each branch of the army appeared.

After all, Cao Xing had helped the soldiers to improve on a large scale once before.

So there are still quite a lot of elite creatures.

Of course, there are the most Dragon Blood Fighters here.

Among the more than one hundred people, there are more than forty elites, which shows how terrifying the quality of their strong men is.

There are also many elite members from other branches of the military.

Cao Xing continued: “Come to me and receive your souls.”

A group of elite warriors came over and took the soul.

Finally, Cao Xing gave 30 boss souls to the Dragon Blood Fighter.

The remaining 54 were distributed to soldiers from other major arms.

They said respectfully.

“Thank you Lord Lord!”

Then, they simultaneously slapped a large number of these leader-level souls into their bodies.

That throbbing deep in the soul appeared again.

[Your territory member: Roosevelt has successfully transformed into a boss-level creature, basic attributes increased by 30%, and learned a new skill: Dragon Blood Extraction]

[Your territory member: Lamia has successfully transformed into a boss-level creature, basic attributes increased by 30%, and learned a new skill: Double Blade Rondo] [Your…]

…

…

As system prompts appeared one after another, these fighters also underwent transformation.

Cao Xing counted the 84 boss-level souls, and finally succeeded in getting 74 of them…

Obviously, this success rate far exceeds the success rate of the soul itself.

The attribute of luck value is really abnormal. It can be said that it has saved him countless resources in disguise.

There were suddenly more than seventy leader-level warriors in the territory, and Cao Xing was in a good mood.

Next, it’s the 15 leader-level souls.

After digesting these souls, he will most likely be able to produce a large number of fifth-order leader-level warriors.

Then digest those dozens of [Master-level Power Hearts].

This also means that he will be able to immediately have more than a dozen master-level experts!
However, Cao Xing still took away three souls, one each of the fifth, sixth, and seventh levels.

These three souls are naturally prepared for Assam’s Sword of the Lady of the Lake.

It was Cao Xing who took the initiative to request to seal the basic attributes of the Sword of the Lady of the Lake. The price was that he needed to devour four leader-level souls to restore it.

Although the cost sounds a bit shocking.

But now, because Assam had used the Sword of the Lady of the Lake a few months in advance, he used the legendary special effects on it to kill enemies every day, which increased the weapon’s basic attack power by more than 10,000 points.

It is equivalent to exchanging four souls for nearly ten thousand points of weapon attack power.

Obviously, this deal is totally worth it.

The remaining 12 souls are also easy to distribute.

Except for the Blood Spider Queen’s Blood Spider Legion, which does not need to use souls, other types of troops basically have one or two boss-level creatures.

Soon, 12 fighters with leader-level strength came out.

Under the gazes of everyone, they slapped all these souls into their bodies.

“Buzz! Buzz!”

Waves of fluctuations emerged.

Continuous system prompts appear again.

[Your territory member: Regumi (Silver Hand Knight) successfully transformed into a leader-level creature, basic attributes increased by 30%, and learned a new skill: Knight’s Journey]

[Your territory member: Patty (Earth Mage) has successfully transformed into a leader-level creature, with basic attributes increased by 30%, and has acquired a new skill: Meteorite Impact! ]

【your……】

……

In the end, 12 out of 9 leader-level souls were successful.

This success rate can be said to be quite impressive.

At this point, Cao Xing still had a commander-level soul, thousands of hearts of power, and nearly ten thousand attribute books in his hands that had not been used.

So, he took out all the attribute books first, and then said: “It’s still the old rules. Each branch of the army will send a representative to come up and receive these attribute books.”

“Give priority to those members who have not been assigned souls.”

Upon hearing the order, except for Hilda, several other captains stepped forward and began to collect attribute books in batches.

In the blink of an eye, everyone had distributed all the attribute books piled in front of them.

Just like before, the number of points for each type of soldier is about the same.

They slapped these attribute books, and basically all of their attributes were improved.

At this point, another thing was digested.

Cao Xing’s eyes swept over the more than 2,000 fighters in the territory.

At present, there are basically no troops below the fourth level in his territory.

Therefore, those more than one thousand high-level power hearts are of no use.

Of course, when the level of that group of polar people or other staff members is upgraded in the future, they can also be given access to it.

As for the nearly three hundred expert-level Hearts of Power, they can be used to upgrade the Star Kingdom Swordsmen, Silver Hand Knights and other military units.

But these numbers are still not enough…

After all, in addition to the above two types of troops, Cao Xing also has nightmare archers, earth and wind mage corps, all of which require [Expert-level Heart of Strength] to break through the fifth level.

After thinking for a moment, Cao Xing decided to distribute these expert-level power hearts first to improve his strength.

So he shouted.

“All Star Nation Swordsmen, Silver Hand Knights, and Nightmare Archers, step out.”

More than three hundred people stood up at the same time.

Cao Xing continued, “Xiao, Fortagan, and Menglita, the three of you come as representatives to receive these expert-level hearts of power.”

“95 for each branch of the military, and then distributed according to contribution.”

Hearing this, the three people on the field stepped forward at the same time, received these expert-level Hearts of Power, and distributed them to the members below.

The soldiers also thanked him respectfully.

Then they crushed the Heart of Power and made a breakthrough.

[Your territory member: Feng breaks through to a fifth-level creature, basic attributes increase by 100%, health points increase by an additional 50%…]

[Members of your territory…]

……

After receiving several hundred system prompts, Cao Xing conducted another statistics.

Out of 295 expert-level Power Hearts, 263 were successful, a probability that is also far beyond the average.

Cao Xing felt very satisfied!
At this point, the gains from this trip have basically been digested.

Currently there is still 1 [Hero’s Heart], 32 [Master-level Power Hearts], and 1 [Seventh-Level Commander-level Soul] that have not been digested.

Cao Xing already has a candidate in mind for the heart and soul of a hero.

As for the 32 master-level hearts of power, they will have to wait until these leader-level creatures that have just broken through to the fifth level reach level 50 before they can be distributed.

So, Cao Xing said.

“Okay, everyone has worked hard on the journey and battles these past few days. Now go back and rest.”

The soldiers looked at each other and said excitedly, “Yes, respected lord!”

More than two thousand people left like a tide.

There were happy smiles on their faces.

In this battle, they were able to crush everyone with ease.

After traveling for four or five consecutive days, I did feel a little tired.

At this moment, I just want to go back to my room and have a good rest.

However, Tian Jing stayed where he was.

Cao Xing noticed that he seemed to have something to say, so he asked, “Tian Jing, what do you want to say?”

Almost half a month has passed since Tian Jing was rescued from the basement by Cao Xing.

After spending some time with and communicating with the soldiers, his aura was not as gloomy as before, and he would usually have a smile on his face.

Of course, because of his lizardman appearance, this smile looks so creepy.

When Tian Jing heard Cao Xing calling him, he immediately came over and excitedly reported: “Boss, I went to the mountain you mentioned to investigate.”

“There is indeed a huge humpbacked giant eagle nest on the top of the mountain. There lives a group of humpbacked giant eagles in it, about 70 to 80 of them!”

“It seems that there are still some giant eagle eggs, which are currently in the incubation stage.”

Cao Xing’s eyes showed surprise, “Oh? There are so many?”

“Yes boss!”

Cao Xing nodded slightly and said, “Very good, I understand.”

“When I have time later, I will send people to tame all these giant humped eagles and bring them back.”

“You should go and rest too.”

“Yes!”

After saying that, the lizard man left.

After Tian Jing left, a thoughtful look appeared in Cao Xing’s eyes.

This group of humpback eagles is quite important.

Although they have little combat power, they are extremely capable of transporting cargo and can easily grab several tons of cargo.

If you can bring all of them back to your territory, it can also be a good means of transportation.

Of course…these humped eagles also have a disadvantage, which is that they are very gluttonous.

From the actions of the group of black-robed priests in Lake Duolun City before, it can be seen that these giant eagles can even eat a whole horse in one meal. Their appetite is amazing.

And they won’t work if they’re not fed.

If we bring all of them back to the territory, a lot of food will be consumed every day.

Therefore, it is better not to catch them before you figure out how to make these giant eagles create value.

Otherwise, there would be dozens of extra gluttons at once, and even he wouldn’t be able to support them.

After making the decision, Cao Xing stopped thinking about it and continued to count the other gains.

Here’s a look at some of the resources in these 14 backpacks.

【Coin*5.32 million】

【Food*514.3 million】

[Mithril*149235]

【Iron*154.62 million】

【Copper*33.24】

[Eternal Gold Ingot*16245]

[Magic Pattern Stone*21781]

…

In addition to the above materials, there are also some relatively rare miscellaneous materials.

Such as various gold jewelry, silver jewelry, gemstones, gemstone fragments and so on.

If all were sold, they would probably be worth two or three hundred million kronor.

“Yes, five hundred million coins, and five million food.”

“According to this calculation, if I want those more than a thousand warriors to break through to the sixth level, I will need about 10 billion crowns and about million units of food.”

“It seems that I have to shamelessly ask the old king to borrow some money.”
