Global Coming: Farming with my sister-in-law in the end times

Chapter 457: Expert Level Leadership, Visit by the Bard. (5400)

With the mechanic's blueprint, you can enter the troop explosion mode.

However, the only flaw is that even robots need to occupy the human population.

But now his lord's castle has reached level 11 and has a population of 6000!

Each subsequent level up will increase the population by 1, which is more than enough.

Cao Xing touched Tong Chuchu's head and said, "Not bad, little Chuchu, these two drawings are very powerful and can increase the combat power of the territory."

After receiving Cao Xing's praise, a happy smile appeared on the little girl's face.

"Hehehe, as long as big brother likes it."

Cao Xing smiled.

"Let's go find the goblin Locke and ask him to make these two robots."

After hearing the latter sentence, Xiao Chuchu asked with her eyes wide open in confusion.

"Are you looking for that ugly goblin uncle?"

As the saying goes, children speak without restraint.

Ever since they last saw the goblin in the cave, Elisa and Tong Chuchu have been calling him the ugly goblin uncle.

This also made the goblin Locke very reluctant to see the two little girls.

Cao Xing smiled and said, "Yes."

"Come with me, little Chuchu."

"Okay big brother."

Tong Chuchu followed Cao Xing obediently, and the two walked side by side.

The brick and stone ground in the territory made a 'trampling' sound when people stepped on it.

You know what, this scene really gives off the feeling of a father taking his daughter with him.

Soon, they arrived near the machinery factory together.

Cao Xing also noticed that several strange large devices appeared in the open space next to the factory.

They were some huge oval-shaped air bags, about seventy to eighty meters long.

The airbag is made of some tough special fabric with a solid metal cabin suspended underneath.

The metal cabin has a large space, almost equivalent to a small mobile room.

There is also a huge propeller on each side, front and back.

This is the [Advanced Goblin Airship], which has a tough appearance and is full of goblin characteristics.

A look of admiration also appeared on Cao Xing's face.

"According to the calculation that a goblin airship can carry 208 people, there are 8 of them here, which can carry more than 1600 people..."

"Locke is a very efficient guy!"

"It seems that this goblin has not been lazy this month."

Cao Xing smiled and knocked on the door of the machinery factory.

"Boom! Boom!"

No one responded the first time.

Cao Xing knocked three times again.

An impatient voice suddenly came from inside.

"Oh! Good God, stop knocking!"

"Don't you know that the working environment in a machinery factory is very noisy?"

"Let me see which blind fellow disturbed the great goblin Locke's work!"

The goblin Locke walked out with his short legs, cursing.

He looked like he was coming to call for an explanation.

But when he pushed open the door and saw the figure standing in front of him, the expression on his face suddenly froze.

"Lord Lord..."

"Um...you're back..."

Almost in a few tenths of a second, he quickly put on a smiling face.

"I'm so sorry, Locke didn't receive the news and didn't know that the wise and mighty lord had returned!"

"I'm so remiss!"

This guy looked regretful.

Cao Xing smiled and didn't continue to listen to the goblin's nonsense.

Instead, he asked directly: "Locke, a month ago, I asked you to upgrade the Earth Dragon Mech to the master level. How is the progress now?"

The goblin craftsman quickly reported: "Thanks to the blessing of the God of the Crypt, the upgrade of the mecha is going quite smoothly and it will be completed soon!"

"We'll work hard tonight, and tomorrow morning you'll be able to lead a brand new, beautiful, and powerful Earth Dragon mecha out to battle!"

"Believe me, Lord, the Earth Dragon Mecha that has broken through to the master level will definitely satisfy you."

Cao Xing nodded, "Yes, I have two more drawings for you to make."

"Once the Earth Dragon Mech is repaired, you can make this one specifically."

After saying that, he threw the drawing over.

The goblin Locke stretched out his shriveled little hand, took the drawing and looked at it carefully.

A thoughtful look appeared in his dark green pupils.

"What's recorded here seems to be a technology that I've never seen before."

"But the overall structure is similar to goblin technology, a bit like our goblin race's micro-combat mecha and humanoid reconnaissance mecha."

Cao Xing asked: "This technology does not belong to the goblins. Can it be made?"

Goblin Locke replied quickly.

"No problem, respected lord. I will devote all my efforts to manufacturing these two types of robots!"

"Very good, come on Locke."

After saying that, he took Tong Chuchu away.

The two soon arrived at the central area of ​​the territory.

"Xiao Chuchu, there's nothing to do today, you should go and have a rest."

But little Chuchu shook her little head and said.

"Big brother, I'm not tired. I'm going to go play with sister Elisa later. She said she would take me to the forest outside to dig out bird nests today!"

Cao Xing was slightly stunned.

Then he looked at Tong Chuchu strangely.

Speaking of which, this little girl came into this world.

Except for the hard time during the first period of time after arriving, after arriving in Cao Xing's territory, it can be said that every day of life has been very exciting.

She has done everything, including fighting monsters, farming, robbing bird nests, and fishing.

As a little girl of a few years old, Tong Chuchu's experience can be said to be quite rich.

Cao Xing also didn't know what kind of person Tong Chuchu would become when she grew up in such an environment.

But that’s a story for later.

Cao Xing smiled and said, "Okay, be careful when you go outside the territory."

Tong Chuchu nodded like a chick pecking at rice, "Okay big brother, I will be careful."

After saying that, she skipped away and went to find Elisa.

After Tong Chuchu left, Cao Xing opened his personal panel and took a look at the life skills on it.

[Advanced Control Technique: 385/5000]

[Skill Effect: Overall Attack Power +5%, Morale Increased by 5%]

...

In the previous continuous command of battles, this skill was directly stacked to a high level.

Life skills like these are quite simple to master from elementary to advanced levels.

You just need to study hard and practice diligently, depending on your personal talent and efforts.

In 1 to 10 years, you can almost upgrade a technology to an advanced level.

However, once life skills reach a high level, it becomes very difficult to make further progress.

In addition to hard training, you also need to have enough talent to become an expert in an industry.

But with this kind of emblem, it becomes much simpler.

Just use it directly.

[Whether to consume 1 expert emblem to improve special skills: Advanced Command]

"Yes."

As Cao Xing clicked OK, an emblem in his backpack disappeared.

at the same time.

A flood of memories flooded into his mind.

Among these memories are scenes of commanding and deploying troops on the battlefield.

Not only can it increase his command experience, but it can also expose him to some new tactics.

When all memories are absorbed.

Cao Xing opened his eyes.

[You used an expert-level emblem, and your proficiency in advanced governance increased by 5000 points]

[Your command skills have been upgraded to expert level.]

...

Cao Xing exclaimed: "Very good, now I also have an expert-level life skill."

Look at the properties.

[Expert Level Control Technique]

[Proficiency: 358/50000]

[Heart of Domination: 0/1]

[Skill Effect: Overall Attack Power +10%, Morale Increased by 10%]

...

"The breakthrough from advanced to expert actually adds an extra 5% attack power, which is really good!"

"But if you want to break through to the master level, it's a bit troublesome. In addition to having a proficiency of 50,000, you also need a commanding heart."

This desire for domination is easy to understand.

Just like Harold's [Forging] requires a craftsman's soul to break through to the master level.

To become a master of Cao Xing's [Command Technique], he also needs another key thing.

Cao Xing had no idea about this [Heart of Domination], so he stopped thinking about it.

After all, expert-level command skills are enough.

Cao Xing thought to himself: "Now, there are only three expert-level emblems left in my backpack..."

"Then go and raise the life skills of others to expert level."

He went straight to the alchemy workshop.

As the door opened, a burst of strange medicine boxes came towards us.

The witch Francesca has continued to make potions.

As one of the top three combat forces in the territory, Cao Xing also brought her with him to the oracle battle this time.

Therefore, the medicine refining work in the territory was put on hold.

But this woman is also very hardworking. She started working immediately after coming out of the Oracle battlefield.

Cao Xing asked: "Francesca, how many bottles of holy water have been made?"

The amount of holy water determines whether Cao Xing can flatten the ancient battlefield with minimal damage.

Naturally, the more, the better.

The witch raised her head slightly, and her long eyelashes fluttered.

"There are about 500 bottles now."

"If I go all out now, I can make 300 bottles a day, but I won't have time to make other potions."

Hearing this number, Cao Xing calculated it in his mind.

There are a total of 1547 melee units in his territory.

If he gave each of them a bottle of holy water, he would need more than a thousand bottles, and he also needed to keep some holy water for backup.

After all, holy water can not only enhance the damage to the undead, but also weaken the attributes of the undead.

It is very effective against some powerful undead.

In other words, Cao Xing needs to have about 2000 bottles of holy water before he can officially start tackling the ancient battlefield!
"At 300 bottles a day, we will reach our target number in about five days."

"Very good, we can eliminate the threat to this ancient battlefield before the first wave of monsters attacks the city!"

Cao Xing said: "Thank you for your hard work during this period."

Francesca shook her head slightly, seemingly not caring.

Then, Cao Xing came to Sabina again and upgraded her [Advanced Poison Mastery] to [Expert Poison Mastery].

Speaking of which, mastering poison techniques and mastering alchemy are different.

Poison Mastery can only make some poisons, such as Nightmare Potion, Frog Potion, etc.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Although it is also very useful, it is still not as versatile as Alchemy Mastery.

Cao Xing also remembers it.

The original agreement with this woman was to let her serve in the territory for three months, and then let her be promoted to the fourth level and return for revenge.

Now, two months have passed without me noticing.

Of course, it doesn’t matter if the time is up.

After all, with 100 loyalty, the contract can be renewed.

As for Sabina's enemies...

He is just a small local noble. We can kill him by sending two people at random.

Cao Xing smiled in his heart.

Then, under Sabina's grateful gaze, he left the alchemy workshop.

Next, he found the painter Edward, who helped him improve his [Advanced Painting Mastery] to [Expert Painting Mastery].

After doing all this, Cao Xing only had the last [Expert Emblem] left in his hand.

He decided to keep this one for now.

Maybe I will meet other senior talents in the future and I can use them then.

At this point, the gains from the Battle of Oracles have been digested.

Just as Cao Xing was about to continue his patrol in the territory.

A system prompt appears.

[Ice Crystal Kingdom: Gwyneth applies to visit your territory, do you agree? ]

...

Seeing this prompt, Cao Xing's eyes gradually showed a thoughtful look.

"Gwyneth...what a familiar name."

But soon, he remembered who this name belonged to.

"This person seems to be the bard who sang beautifully in the city of Melinde..."

"How did she find my territory?"

With a strange look on his face, Cao Xing clicked 'Confirm'.

at the same time.

On the snow ahead, a ragged figure was walking towards the territory.

Her steps were slow, but revealed a sense of fatigue.

Compared to the last time I saw Gwyneth in the pub, she looked so glamorous.

The woman became much more haggard.

Her hair was scattered like dead grass, and her face seemed to be covered with dirt that had been deliberately smeared on, covering up her beautiful features.

His once bright eyes have now become dull and his eye sockets are sunken.

You can't tell at all that she is the bard who sang in the tavern and amazed everyone.

Cao Xing stood at the gate, watching the woman slowly walk towards him.

She also noticed Cao Xing.

As she got closer, she gradually raised her head.

A bright light suddenly appeared in the dim pupils.

Then he quickened his pace and walked towards him.

After the two met, Gwyneth became uncontrollably excited.

He stretched out his black-gloved hands and put them together in a praying gesture.

Cao Xing asked first: "What's the matter with you coming to my territory?"

Hearing this, Gwyneth slowly opened her cracked lips.

"Ah...uh...uh..."

An inexplicable sound came from the throat.

She pointed to her mouth and waved her hand.

At this moment, Cao Xing recalled.

This woman was poisoned by the black-billed crow, which damaged her vocal cords and made her unable to speak.

Cao Xing thought for a moment, pressed the communication device on his ear, and switched to the team channel.

"Does anyone among you know sign language?"

When the soldiers in the territory heard Cao Xing's voice, doubts appeared in their eyes.

After a moment, a majestic voice sounded.

"I understand a little."

The one who spoke was Victoria, the Queen of Mind.

"Very good, come to the gate of the territory now, I will wait for you here."

"Well, I'll be right over."

After a while.

A graceful figure walked towards us.

She was wearing a blue wizard robe that outlined her hot body.

He was wearing a white wolfskin coat and his hands hung naturally at his sides.

With a dignified manner, she walked towards Cao Xing step by step.

It was Victoria.

When she came to my side.

Cao Xing said: "Help me translate what this woman is saying."

Gwyneth stood quietly by the side, holding the lute in her hands, and looking at the queen with extraordinary temperament.

There was a slight surprise in his eyes.

He seemed a little surprised that there was such a refined being in this territory.

As Victoria's majestic gaze swept over, Gwyneth actually felt as if a thorn in her back.

Then she stretched out her hand and gestured slowly.

Victoria nodded as she gazed slightly at the woman in front of her.

After a moment, the Queen of Mind Qi turned around and translated.

"She said that last time in the tavern in Melinde City, you reminded her about the black-billed crow poison, and she followed your advice and went to see a doctor in the city."

"But the doctors didn't find any symptoms until the poison took effect, and then they remembered your warning."

"But it was too late by then. The black-billed duck poison had completely destroyed her vocal cords. The Woodpecker Chamber of Commerce searched for doctors throughout the city but to no avail."

"She hasn't been able to speak since then."

"During that time, she almost lost hope in life."

Victoria watched her gestures and translated them simultaneously.

Then he continued, "One day, she suddenly thought of you and thought that since you knew she was poisoned by the black-billed duck, you might be able to help her regain her voice."

"She didn't want to lose her voice, so she resolutely left the city and came to the wilderness outside."

"It took nearly a month to reach our territory through the intelligence of the Woodpecker Chamber of Commerce."

After hearing this, Cao Xing also understood the whole story.

And why she came to his territory.

Looking at the bard, admiration appeared in his eyes.

I have to say, this woman's perseverance is amazing.

A woman who could not speak, traveled more than 500 kilometers alone in this dangerous and cold world.

After a month's long journey, they arrived at their own territory.

It goes without saying that he must have suffered a lot during this period.

But Cao Xing had no choice.

It would be fine if she found me before the poison took effect.

After all, with the Light-Feather Chicken here, a [Purifying Light] can eliminate the [Black-Billed Crow Poison] in her body.

However, the woman only found herself after the poison had taken effect.

The only way to restore her voice now is to heal her vocal cords first.

Cao Xing sighed, then shook his head and said, "I don't know how to restore your voice."

"Unfortunately."

Hearing this, the woman was stunned...

As if all his hopes were dashed, he stood there in a daze.

I do not know how long it has been.

She took a deep breath and gradually came back to her senses.

She looked at Cao Xing, nodded slightly, and gestured again.

Victoria next to her translated: "She said, thank you, sorry to bother you."

After saying this, the woman turned around, holding the lute, and walked out of the territory.

However, her back looked so lonely, and her beautiful eyes became dull.

After a month's long journey, he finally found the chosen lord, his only hope.

The other party’s reply was that there was no solution.

If it were an ordinary person, he would probably not be able to bear such a blow and would have lost the motivation to continue living.

And this woman doesn't look like she's giving up.

She seemed to be going somewhere else.

Cao Xing stared at her back, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

This woman is nothing but a master singing proficiency.

There are also master-level musical instrument proficiency, advanced performance proficiency, advanced poetry creation and other skills.

Even if he can't speak, he is still a rare talent.

Moreover, the fact that she was able to find her own territory from the city of Melinde by herself already shows her fate with Cao Xing.

After thinking for a moment, Cao Xing called her.

"Wait a moment."

In front, Gwyneth, who had walked more than ten meters, stopped and slowly turned her head.

He looked at Cao Xing with a puzzled look.

Cao Xing asked directly: "What are your plans next?"

The woman thought for a moment and gestured again.

Victoria said: "She said that next, she would go to other cities to see if she could find a way to restore her voice..."

Cao Xing looked at her and said seriously.

"Gwyneth, would you like to join my territory?"

...
