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

Chapter 571 Summoning Byrne's Black Heart, the Emperor's Engine! (5000)

Cao Xing didn't waste any words with her and said directly, "Join my territory and serve me for ten years. During this time, you must obey my orders completely."

"The curse that you've spent hundreds of years trying to break, I'm now lifting for you."

"Serving me for ten years, is that too much to ask?"

Upon hearing this, a look of struggle appeared in Lana's eyes.

After a moment, she gritted her teeth and said, "Ten years it is!"

At the same time, a smile appeared on Cao Xing's lips.

You think you can't be dealt with?

Irena was also very happy. She exclaimed joyfully, "That's wonderful, Lana! We can be together again from now on!"

Lana the Green Snake looked at her sister's happy expression and then sighed.

Therefore, Cao Xing directly sent him a recruitment invitation.

[Recruitment successful! Serpent Clan: Lana, level 80, an eighth-tier Overlord-level creature, has joined your territory, increasing the territory's population by 20...]

...

Another overlord-level powerhouse has joined the territory.

Cao Xing was secretly delighted.

As a lord who frequently deals with all sorts of women, he can handle even difficult women like Hilda and Binglan, and he can easily deal with this temperamental green snake as well.

Then, I glanced at her specific attribute panel.

[Snake-Man Clan Azure Scale: Lana]

[Race: Snake People]

[Level: 80 (Eighth-Tier Overlord-Level Creature)]

[HP: 412.3 / 3157.75 (Blessed by the Pale Tree)]

[Attack power: 68195~79784]

Armor: 7177~7285

[Skills: Advanced Hardening Azure Scales, Venomous Fang Piercing, Azure Scale Shadow, Blood Sacrifice Serpent Spirit, Azure Shadow Serpent Curse]

[Commander-level Skill: Binding of Ten Thousand Serpents - Strangulation (Summons tens of thousands of venomous serpent shadows to attack the same target, binding them and then strangling them intensely for 1-5 seconds. Cooldown: 10 hours)]

[Dominion Domain: Azure Serpent Dominion Domain (Increases self-healing by 30%, attack power by 20%, and suppresses all enemies' healing by 30%)]

[Talent: Jungle Behemoth (After switching to Green Serpent form, maximum health increases by 30%, and armor increases by 20%)]

[Satiety: 65]

【Loyalty: 58】

...

...

"Is it a commander-level control skill? But the control strength of this skill is not clearly stated, and the specific effect still needs to be tested."

"However, since it is a commander-level skill, it must be quite powerful."

"Besides that, this Domination Domain that suppresses the enemy's healing effects is also very good!"

Cao Xing commented.

Clearly, this green snake is quite powerful in combat and can also help the team.

So, Cao Xing casually cast an Ice Healing spell.

The next moment, more than 30,000 replies appeared above her head.

The shocking wounds on his body healed and recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Before the look of shock could appear in her eyes, Cao Xing spoke directly.

"Alright, Ilena, now take her for a walk around the territory to help her recover her strength."

"If you can't stay idle, take her out to fight those ice nest monsters."

"Your sister is only at the eighth level of combat power, which is still too weak."

Irena replied softly, "Yes, my lord."

Lana, standing to the side, paused for a moment, then remained silent.

If Lana had heard Cao Xing say that she was weak before, she would have refuted him without hesitation.

But now, I can feel the abundant life force within me, and the constantly recovering life points.

She suddenly realized why she couldn't beat her sister, even though she was clearly stronger than her.

Without saying much, Cao Xing left Irena's room.

Anyway, he has successfully brought this green snake into his territory, and there will be plenty of opportunities to train and cultivate her later.

Cao Xing could even make her completely submit right now.

After all, he still had a few [Loyalty Beads] in his inventory that he hadn't used yet.

This thing can instantly raise a friendly unit's loyalty to the maximum value!

Of course, forced relationships are never sweet.

There's no sense of accomplishment in forcibly increasing loyalty through items.

Cao Xing wanted her to submit willingly.

Thinking of this, a smile gradually appeared on his lips.

Cao Xing thought to himself, "Next, I can exchange that scroll in the Gold Points Shop and add another Overlord-level creature to my territory."

Then, he directly opened the store and made the exchange.

[Would you like to spend 3000 Gold Points to exchange for a recruitment scroll for Byver Blackheart (Tier 4 Overlord-level creature)?]

"Yes."

[Redeem successful, Gold Points -3000]

...

The next moment, a pitch-black recruitment scroll appeared in Cao Xing's backpack.

Placed in the backpack, it seemed to be beating slightly, like a dark heart.

Then, he immediately performed the summoning.

[Use the scroll to summon a Tier 4 Overlord-level creature?]

"Yes."

The scroll in Cao Xing's hand disappeared the moment he clicked "confirm".

A strong aura of darkness surged forth before him.

Then, Cao Xing heard a weathered voice.

"There was a time when I was so cowardly."

"We are exhausted and barely surviving, like a candle flickering in the wind, unable to control our own destiny."

"I want to know why I am so cowardly. I want to know why I dare not fight back when faced with oppression and bullying!"

"So, I cut open my own heart!"

"However, I found it to be completely dark there!"

"At this moment, I finally understand that it is not that my heart is inherently weak, but that the darkness of this world has already stained it black!"

"If that's the case, why should I resist the darkness I was born with?"

"And so, I accepted my dark heart and gained unprecedented power..."

...

When the sound ends

A strange figure appeared in front of Cao Xing.

He was dressed in a set of jet-black metal armor, and also wore a pair of black metal gloves, like the claws of a devil.

Most striking is the area around his heart on his chest, where a huge black crystal is embedded, as deep as a bottomless spring!
His face was hidden beneath a black helmet, with only his eyes, which emitted a ghostly green light, vaguely visible.

At this moment, this imposing figure slowly turned his armor and gradually looked at Cao Xing.

"Excuse me, are you the owner of this territory?"

Cao Xing nodded slightly. "That's right, I summoned you from another dimension. Are you willing to serve me?"

Upon hearing this, the man in black armor glanced around before fixing his gaze on Cao Xing.

Seemingly sensing the vast magical power emanating from him, it nodded slightly and said:

“I am Bever Blackheart, an executioner who walks in the darkness, and I am happy to serve you.”

After speaking, the black-armored man extended his right hand, which was covered in sharp claws, and placed it on the black heart. He then bowed slightly and gave Cao Xing a solemn salute.

A smile appeared on Cao Xing's lips.

Clearly, his increased strength saved him a lot of trouble.

Even someone who seemed difficult to talk to chose to pledge their loyalty on the spot.

Cao Xing was in a great mood today because two more Overlord-level creatures had appeared in his territory in one day.

After all, these are all high-potential individuals, with a high probability of breaking through to the legendary level in the future. With a pleasant feeling, I glanced at the new member's attributes.

[Beverly Blackheart]

[Race: Human Race]

[Level: 40 (Tier 4 Overlord-level Creature)]

[Health Points: 325894/325894 (Blessed by the Pale Tree)]

Attack Power: 5891~6022 (Command Spell)

Armor: 1247~1389

[Attributes: Strength 2158, Agility 2079, Spirit 2041, Constitution 2591]

[Skill: Master-level Shattering Claw Mastery (A claw strike imbued with some kind of evil power; upon hitting an enemy, it reduces their maximum health by 1%, stacking up to 5 times.)]
Evil Heart Impact (Unleashes the power of the Black Heart, firing a beam of energy forward with a maximum attack range of (Spirit * 0.1 meters), dealing damage equal to 167% of attack power to all enemies in its path. The beam lasts for 5 seconds. Cooldown: 60 seconds)
Mind Shield (Activates the power of the Black Heart, condensing an energy shield around the body that absorbs damage equal to (Agility*10) for 10 seconds. When the shield shatters, it deals 189% shatter damage to surrounding enemies. Cooldown: 90 seconds)
Dark Grasp (Extends out sharp claws from its hand and shoots them at the target at extremely high speed, immobilizing the target for 1-5 seconds. Cooldown: 55 seconds)
Heart-Piercing Claws (The claws in the hand spin wildly, dealing continuous damage equal to 178% of the user's attack power. If the attack hits the enemy's heart, it will deal an additional 200% damage and convert all damage dealt into health. Cooldown: 120 seconds)

[Commander-level Skill: Evil Heart Fission - Tide (Detonates the power within the heart, absorbing 1% of the health of all nearby friendly units, up to 10 times consecutively, cooldown: 5 minutes)]

[Dominion Domain: Emperor's Engine Domain (Makes all surrounding enemy creatures hear their own heartbeat and feel fear; suppresses the attributes of enemy units lower than your level by 20%; reduces the attack speed of units higher than your level by 20%)]

[Talent: Strong Heart (In battle, each successful kill by crushing an enemy's heart will increase your attack power by 1% for 30 seconds, stacking up to 20 times)]

[Satiety: 72]

【Loyalty: 65】

...

After reading through this guy's long list of skills, Cao Xing's eyes showed amazement.

"Wow, most of them are abilities related to the heart? That's really impressive!"

"Add to that his talent and Dominion Domain, and his attack power is even comparable to that of Bojie, who has devoured the blood of a demon!"

Of course, Cao Xing was more concerned about his commander-level skill – Evil Heart Fission: Frenzy.

"Does it drain the health of friendly units? And by a percentage?"

"This doesn't seem to be working?"

After all, with the amplification of [Eternal Power], his territory is not lacking in healing abilities.

Moreover, this skill would be better if it were about absorbing the enemy's health, but it absorbs the health of allies, which at most only increases Byver Blackheart's own survivability.

Thinking of this, a look of disappointment gradually appeared in Cao Xing's eyes.

At that moment, he seemed to remember something, and his eyes suddenly widened, bursting with a sharp light!

"No...this skill might be extremely useful!"

After all, what does it mean to absorb 1% of all friendly units' health?
Almost all of the combatants in Cao Xing's territory have millions or even tens of millions of health points.

Absorbing a wave of energy can instantly restore hundreds of millions of health points to full!

This skill can absorb ten times in a row.

In other words, as long as he is not killed instantly, he can remain immortal.

"At that moment, I can use the Soul Link skill to make everyone attack Bever Blackheart and deliver true damage to the enemy."

"With our terrifying DPS, we can attack and heal at the same time."

"The damage caused by this skill is even more terrifying than a forbidden spell!"

Thinking of this, Cao Xing's eyes gradually showed excitement.

"Excellent! As expected, there are no useless skills, only lords who don't know how to use them!"

My mood improved instantly.

However, to achieve the effect of this combination of skills, you must first level up Byver Blackheart.

After all, how much damage others can deal depends on their maximum health.

So Cao Xing took out an [Expert-level Heart of Power] from his backpack and said, "Byver, use this Heart of Power to restore your strength."

The man in black armor immediately replied, "Thank you for your generosity, Lord. Byver will recover to his peak condition as soon as possible!"

After a notification of increased loyalty appeared, he respectfully took the red crystal from Cao Xing's hand, then extended his metal claws and lightly scratched it.

The crystal was then sliced ​​open, absorbing the pure power contained within.

At the same time, the black crystal on Byver Blackheart's left chest pulsed.

Cao Xing faintly heard a strong heartbeat in his ear.

"Boom! Boom!"

The heartbeat was very clear, as if it were ringing in your mind, and it was rhythmic, even causing your heart to beat in the same rhythm.

Not only Cao Xing, but also the surrounding territory members heard the heartbeat and their hearts began to beat in response.

"Is this the effect of his domain? It can actually affect other people's heartbeats, that's interesting."

"In some situations, this field can even have a significant destructive effect!"

After all, everyone's heartbeat would follow his heartbeat frequency.

What if Byver suddenly increased his heart rate to five or six times, or even ten times, the normal rate?

A sudden increase in heart rate can trigger a series of serious consequences, including dizziness, fainting, mental disorders, and gastrointestinal ischemia!
Cao Xing and his group of seventh or eighth-level experts can withstand it.

The fourth and fifth tier creatures below could not withstand such an impact!

"It seems... this new member still has a lot of abilities that can be developed!" Cao Xing exclaimed.

Meanwhile, Byver's breakthrough was also quickly successful.

A system notification appeared.

[Your territory member: Baifer Blackheart has successfully broken through to a fifth-tier creature, with base attributes increased by 100% and health increased by 50%...]

...

The man in black armor felt a surge of power within him and excitedly stretched out his hands, which were covered in sharp claws, and waved them back and forth in the air.

"I didn't expect that I would recover my fifth-tier power so soon after being summoned."

He looked at Cao Xing and said in a hollow voice, "Respected Lord, thank you. I have successfully broken through."

"Very good, now I will continue to strengthen your power."

After saying that, Cao Xing raised his staff and cast four status skills on it: Ice Healing, Ice Armor, Frost Shield, and Ice Summoning.

This greatly improved Byrne's survival ability.

Feeling the four buffs within his body, the new member's eyes also showed extreme shock.

Loyalty, like that of other members, skyrocketed to over 75.

Cao Xing said, "Now, you should go out and fight too, and improve your strength as soon as possible."

Byrne Blackheart replied respectfully, "Yes, my great lord."

"Bever will do everything in its power to get you more hearts!"

Then he turned around and quickly left the territory.

After the new member's figure disappeared, Cao Xing clapped his hands in satisfaction.

"Great, I've basically finished what I needed to do. Now I can go out and fight those Ice Nest Monsters to level up."

"However, I haven't been back for several days. Before that, I'll take a look around the territory first, and then it won't be too late to go out and fight monsters."

With that in mind, Cao Xing quickly crossed the buffer zone and arrived at the outer edge of the territory.

Before us stood a row of frosty white city walls, over ten meters high and nearly eight meters wide, exuding a sense of solidity and weight.

After this period of development, all the advanced frost walls in the territory have been upgraded to expert-level frost walls.

In addition, there's the advanced spell of the earth mage Tyron—Rock Barrier.

This significantly improved the durability of these city walls!

Furthermore, several war machines, such as the Destroyer Siege Ballista and the Catapult, were placed on it.

His territory is now appearing more and more imposing!
"That's good. I wonder when the system will add the option to exchange for master-level city wall blueprints. That way, we can further strengthen the defense of our territory."

As he walked, he arrived at the [Ore Processing Plant] area.

Seven or eight black transport trucks were parked in the open space in front of the processing plant, waiting to be unloaded.

Each transport vehicle was loaded with a large amount of ore.

At the processing plant, a dozen or so polar workers were constantly unloading ore from truck beds and then moving it to the factory for sorting and smelting; it was quite a busy scene.

Currently, Cao Xing controls three large mining sites, all of which are being mined simultaneously.

In addition, dozens of transport vehicles would return to his territory from time to time, bringing him a large amount of resources every day.

"Very good. Once we have more staff and more large mining sites under our control, and have accumulated enough resources, we can carry out the third expansion of our territory."

Cao Xing's territory now has a diameter of two kilometers, roughly the size of a small town.

Further expansion would bring us to roughly the level of those mega-cities.

Of course, building a giant city requires a massive amount of resources.

He needs to accumulate experience for a while longer.

...

...

(PS: The author is speeding up the plot QAQ. In the next two days, we'll reach the final monster siege, and then one person in the territory will break through to the legendary realm. After that, the Blood Expansion will be available!)
