Chapter 37: Can I Hit You Once?

[+10]

A series of healing numbers appeared over Liu Muxue’s head.

When she realized that this Mole Man couldn’t harm her, she exhaled a sigh of relief.

Then, she recalled the scenes where Cao Xing had taught her how to fight.

Feeling a bit shy yet gradually finding her combat rhythm,

Liu Muxue thrust her sword forward, striking the Mole Man’s chest.

[-32]

The Mole Man’s chest bled as it made a constant “chirp, chirp, chirp” sound.

It swung its iron shovel, striking again.

Liu Muxue was jolted back two steps.

Then she lifted her longsword and thrust again.

“Puff!”

What followed was.

The Mole Man struck her with the shovel, and then Liu Muxue returned the favor with her sword.

Both sides began a turn-based battle.

This scene made Cao Xing want to laugh a little.

However, for Liu Muxue to reach this level was already impressive.

A minute or two later, the number of Mole Men in the mine dwindled.

Watching his recruited creatures fighting ahead, Cao Xing also raised his magic wand.

A large amount of Frost Power gathered between his wand.

Then, in front of Cao Xing appeared three 40-centimeter-long ice cones, crystal clear and emitting a chill.

Cao Xing waved his magic wand, “Go!”

The next second, the three ice cones shot out swiftly.

They all hit one of the Mole Man Miners.

[-68]

[-71]

[-103!]

The three ice cones took away over two hundred points of the Mole Man Miner’s life value.

Cao Xing was quite satisfied with this damage, considering he was just a Level 4 Frost Mage.

But compared to Sarah, who casually dealt 700 or 800 points of damage with one strike, there was still a significant gap.

In no time, the Mole Man Miners here were all killed by them.

At this moment, the Mole Man Supervisor, who was holding a long whip, showed a look of fear in his eyes.

It turned around directly and ran deeper into the mine.

And at this moment,

Sarah emerged from the shadows.

She raised her right hand and threw a dark dagger that hit the Mole Man Supervisor’s back.

“Chirp!!”

The Mole Man Supervisor let out a miserable scream, and a damage number appeared above its head.

[-843]

One strike, and it instantly reduced its life value to zero.

Level 20 Sarah was far too strong!

“Sarah, well done,” Cao Xing praised from behind.

Sarah remained her usual cold self, but this time she added a line.

“The Shadow Holy Hall guides me forward.”

Cao Xing nodded, thinking to himself, “Sarah’s level has already reached the advanced requirement. If I could get a second-tier Heart of Power now, I could upgrade Sarah to a third-tier creature.”

“Then, her power could increase by another fold.”

“However, the second-tier Heart of Power isn’t easy to obtain. I’ll look for chances in the future.”

After the battle, naturally, it was time to clean up the battlefield.

Cao Xing was prepared to start searching for loot beneath the Mole Men’s bodies.

At this moment, a system prompt appeared again.

[Humanoid creatures cannot be disassembled.]

Cao Xing’s mouth twitched.

“Why does the system always think I’d do such a thing?”

Underneath this Mole Man, Cao Xing rummaged around and did find quite a few items.

[Obtained Dry Food*5, Chaos Book·Weak*1, Sticky Liquid*1, Iron Ingot*1, Iron Shovel*1.]

Cao Xing began to check the descriptions of these items.

[Dry Food (White): Hard to swallow food, 1 piece of dry food = 1 food.]

…

[Chaos Book·Weak: Randomly increases 1 point in a four-dimensional attribute for a friendly unit.]

(Note: Cannot be used on Lord.)

…

[Sticky Liquid (White): Black sticky liquid, uses unknown.]

(Seems to be some kind of alchemy material. You can try selling it if you encounter a merchant in the wild.)

…

[Iron Ingot (White): Can obtain Iron*5 after disassembly.]

…

[Iron Shovel (White): Attack Power 4~5, can be used for mining.]

…

Cao Xing thought to himself, “This Chaos Book seems pretty good. If a large number is acquired, it might be possible to boost one recruited creature’s attributes to a terrifying level.”

“Too bad it can’t be used on me.”

Then, Cao Xing spent about five minutes quickly cleaning the battlefield.

Total gains: [Dry Food]*130, [Chaos Book·Weak]*3

Besides these, there were some materials and one piece of equipment.

[Sticky Liquid (White)]*31.

[Iron Shovel (White)]*27

[Iron Ingot (White)]*4

[Mole Man Supervisor’s Long Whip (Green)*1]

The interesting one was the last piece of equipment.

[Mole Man Supervisor’s Long Whip (Green): Special Equipment]

[Quality: Fine]

[Attack Power: 13~15]

[Attached Effect ①: Whip (Using the long whip to lash the target speeds up work, increasing their move speed by 10% for the next 5 minutes.)]

[Attached Effect ②: Pain Amplification (The whip covered in olive oil increases the pain felt by 50% during lashes.)]

…

After reading the introduction, Cao Xing’s expression was a bit odd.

“Is this thing… also some kind of amplification effect?”

“If I pair it with my hidden talent, could it become a permanent status?”

Cao Xing decided to experiment first, especially since a 10% move speed was quite good.

So, under the bewildered gaze of Liu Muxue and Andrew and others, Cao Xing lashed himself hard with the whip.

“Snap!”

[-7]

A crisp sound echoed, and Cao Xing took a sharp breath.

“Hiss! That hurts!”

Though the damage wasn’t high, the second effect [Pain Amplification] made one lash really painful!

Even before Cao Xing recovered from the pain,

a system prompt appeared before him.

[You’ve received Whip effect, increasing move speed by 10% for 5 minutes.]

[Talent [Eternal Power] activated, [Whip] has become a permanent amplification state.]

Cao Xing: “…”

“Oh my, it actually worked?”

Cao Xing was utterly dumbfounded.

Then, as he realized something, his face lit up with delight.

Because this way, combining with the [Snake-man Tribe Frenzy] skill was equivalent to permanently increasing move speed for himself and other friendly units by 30%!

This was a huge boost!

Beside him, Liu Muxue and the others looked confused.

They watched as Cao Xing lashed himself with a whip, grimaced in pain,

then suddenly became excited.

It seemed as if he had awakened some strange attribute.

And now he turned that excited look toward them.

The upright Assam didn’t know what had happened, so he asked, “Lord, what happened to you?”

Cao Xing looked up and said, “Assam, may I whip you, please?”

Assam: “…”

Liu Muxue: “…”

Sarah: “…”

Although this request was odd, Assam, with his high loyalty of 95, wouldn’t disobey Cao Xing’s orders.

He seemed to make a tough decision and nodded, “If the Lord wishes, you may…”

Cao Xing didn’t hold back, swung the long whip, and lashed Assam.

“Snap!”

…
