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

Chapter 762 Liu Muxue Awakens, Heavenly Punishment Knight!

Time flew by, and three whole hours had passed...

"Boom..."

A strong tremor occurred in the lord's castle.

A short while later, a tall figure dressed in a frosty white robe walked out.

It was Cao Xing.

He looked around at the buildings and let out a long sigh of relief.

"call……"

After a moment, Cao Xing chuckled and shook his head, saying, "We've finally subdued this Blood Spider Queen."

"I have to say, this kind of woman is really formidable!"

The battle he just fought with Hilda was essentially a clash between a spear and a human shield.

Whenever Xierda tried to launch an attack, Cao Xing would draw his spear, forcing her to defend passively.

When Cao Xing prepares to launch an attack, the Blood Spider Queen will spit out spider silk to bind his limbs.

The two sides went back and forth, neither willing to give in.

Fortunately, after three hours of fierce fighting, Cao Xing's side ultimately prevailed.

He turned around and glanced back.

The Blood Spider Queen was currently lying on the [Shining Throne], breathing softly, seemingly recovering her strength.

Seeing this, Cao Xing smiled again.

He didn't speak, but waited silently at the door for Hildag to come out.

It wasn't until several minutes later that the Blood Spider Queen, now known as the Scarlet Queen, came to her senses.

Hildag also saw the figure guarding the gate, and a look of shame and annoyance appeared in her eyes, as if she was somewhat unconvinced that she had actually been defeated.

She first spun out spider silk to make herself a set of close-fitting clothes.

Then it propped up its spider legs and slowly climbed up from the throne.

However, she staggered a few times when she got up and almost fell down.

It was clear that the battle had exhausted her...

After a period of adjustment, the Blood Spider Queen regained her footing.

Then, she took eight long strides and wobbled over to Cao Xing's side.

She gave him a resentful look and said softly, "Let's go, my lord~"

"it is good."

Cao Xing nodded, and then led Xierda to the center of the territory, which was next to the energy station.

A slowly rotating vortex portal, emitting a ghostly blue light, appeared here.

Once you get close, a message will appear on it that reads "[Instance Entrance]".

However, at the current stage, there is only one dungeon: [Lost Royal City].

Cao Xing casually took out five [Advanced Magic Energy Crystals] and threw them into the portal.

[Activate the instance portal to teleport territory member: Hilda Bloodkissed into the instance: Lost Royal City?]

"Yes."

As he clicked "OK", a blue beam of light enveloped Hilda.

Hildag also sensed the teleportation power, so she looked at Cao Xing and said softly, "Then goodbye, my lord~"

Cao Xing nodded. "Okay, you go ahead first. I'll come over in a while."

"We'll have a more in-depth discussion after we finish exploring the ruins."

Upon hearing the last sentence, all the compound eyes on Hildag's forehead opened.

A look of anticipation flashed across her face, and she couldn't help but stick out her tongue and lick her scarlet lips.

"This queen is very much looking forward to it, my lord."

"Next time, I won't lose again, hehehe~"

A flash of light appeared before their eyes, and with the Blood Spider Queen's final soft laugh, the eerie figure vanished from the spot.

Cao Xing also heard Xierda's last words, and a smile appeared on his lips: "I have already figured out your weakness, and I can make you beg for mercy on the ground next time."

"It's impossible to turn things around."

Cao Xing chuckled and shook his head.

Then, looking at the empty square, he thought to himself, "Now, Hilda has also successfully broken through to the legendary level, and there is now an eleventh legendary creature in the territory."

"Next, let's go outside and see how the construction of the giant city is going."

With that thought in mind, he put his hands behind his back and slowly strolled toward the outer edge of the territory.

Along the way, he passed through the territory's residential areas and training areas.

The staff and combat personnel on the road stopped what they were doing and bowed respectfully when they saw Cao Xing.

"Good day, my lord."

"My lord, welcome back!"

The crowd's eyes were filled with fervor and respect.

Cao Xing chuckled and nodded in response.

Amidst greetings along the way, Cao Xing arrived at the industrial zone of the territory.

His gaze swept over the surrounding buildings.

Most of the buildings here are operational.

Not far away, the aroma of freshly baked rye bread wafted from the open windows of the bakery, mingling with the rich scent of rum from the distillery next door.

The sounds of hammering and clanging could be heard from all ten blacksmith shops, along with faint shouts of reprimand.

"Quenching needs to be quick! Do you think you're making soup?"

"When striking, be careful with the force; don't use as much force as you can!"

"Bring the materials over here! And hurry up!"

...

During his absence, everything in the territory operated smoothly and efficiently.

Cao Xing nodded in satisfaction: "That's right, the development of the territory is now gradually getting on the right track."

"Even if I do nothing next, even if I just sit back and do nothing, it won't affect the operation of the territory."

Thinking about this, I felt even more satisfied.

As he walked, he arrived at the outer edge of the territory.

The towering city walls meander like a giant dragon, reaching a height of over twenty meters.

Below the city wall, a defensive tower, 30 meters high, stands every 50 meters.

In addition to expert-level elemental arrow towers, there are also lighthouses, ice arrow towers, corrosion towers, and more.

Arrows of various colors are poised to be fired from the arrow slots at the top of the towers. If any enemy enters the attack range, they will be subjected to concentrated fire from these arrow towers.

On the city walls, there were also more than a dozen Neros cannons, frost catapults, and other large war machines...

However, among these numerous defensive structures, two giant towers stand out in particular.

They are twice as tall as those expert-level arrow towers, reaching nearly sixty meters.

The dark red tower body, like two blood swords, pierced straight into the sky, with two huge blood-red crystal cores floating at the top, radiating a destructive aura!

These two enormous machines guarded the north and south gates of the city, respectively.

It was those two legendary defensive towers: the Blood Destroyer Towers!
Cao Xing glanced at it.

The Tower of Blood Destroyers

[Quality: Legend]

Attack power: None

Building height: 58 meters

Armor: 10

Durability: 500 million/500 million

[Attack Method: Communicates with the power of the Blood Dimension to summon a Blood Destroyer that descends from the sky, dealing 16891642 to 17315623 damage to all enemies within 5000 meters of the target area.]

The Blood Destroyer exists for 10 seconds and will unleash a frenzied attack on surrounding enemies.

[Launch interval: 60 seconds]

Maximum range: 100 kilometers

...

Cao Xing exclaimed, "With these two defensive towers, plus the Blood Spider Queen, Hilda..."

"Even if ten legendary figures attacked my territory at the same time, I would still take them down."

"Moreover, even when faced with an attack from a demigod, this type of defensive tower can still be quite effective."

After reviewing the attributes of the Destroyer Tower.

With a light leap, he reached the city wall.

Looking down from a high vantage point, a magnificent and bustling construction site unfolds before you.

Tens of thousands of workers, like ants, are busy working on the vast construction site below.

Hundreds of Chaser robots took on the role of transport, dragging several tons of rocks to the designated location.

The goblin airship hovered in mid-air, its propellers stirring up gusts of air as it continuously transported large quantities of wood and metal components.

In the southeast corner of the construction site, an elderly man named Cao Yi was standing on a makeshift command platform, constantly directing the workers to adjust the construction position.

Meanwhile, Yoren led another group of skilled technicians to debug the underground drainage system. At the temporary camp, Edward's logistics unit had already erected a long stretch of tents.

Dozens of large pots simmered meat broth day and night, while baskets of wheat bread were delivered to various work areas.

The construction site may appear messy, but it is actually very orderly.

Moreover, after five days of construction, the giant city was beginning to take shape.

The foundation of the city wall has stretched to the horizon like the spine of a dragon, and the ground of the city streets has been compacted several times, just waiting for the Urakami floor to be ready for people to walk on.

There are also some special buildings whose foundations have already been built and will be completed soon.

After observing for a moment, Cao Xing smiled again: "Based on the current progress, it should be completely completed in about two or three months."

"At that time, I will have a city of my own."

"Even the entire snowy plain will belong to me."

Cao Xing hadn't forgotten that he still had a 'C-level mission' to complete.

If you give that wooden comb to 'Rosie of Chuanhai Fortress', the old king will grant her the entire blizzard plain.

However, despite having heard her name several times, I never had the chance to actually meet this elusive "Rosie of Chuanhai Fortress".

But Cao Xing believed that he would find her soon.

He then continued to observe from the city wall for a few more minutes.

The staff and commanders were completely absorbed in the project at hand and did not notice Cao Xing, who was inspecting the construction site.

After confirming that there were no problems, Cao Xing looked away.

"Next, I'll go back and rest for a bit, and then wait for Binglan to return."

Just as he was about to jump off the city wall, he suddenly sensed a dazzling aurora erupting from the center of the territory.

Multicolored beams of light shot up thousands of meters into the sky, as if a goddess who controls the aurora had awakened, full of sacred beauty.

At the same time, the doors to the Dream Library opened.

Upon seeing this, Cao Xing instantly realized something, and a smile appeared on his lips.

"Judging by the time, Mu Xue should be waking up from her dream soon."

"Perfect, we can ask her what treasures she brought out of there, and then send her to the ruins to level up."

Thinking of this, a pair of transparent wind wings appeared behind Cao Xing, and with a gentle flap, they carried him directly forward.

Just a second or two later, his figure appeared at the entrance of the Dream Library.

Then, a female knight, clad in silver armor, wielding a longsword, and possessing a dignified and beautiful aura, slowly emerged from the library.

It was Liu Muxue.

Upon seeing Cao Xing greeting her at the door, the female knight also showed a gentle smile.

"Ah Xing, it's been a long time..." Her voice was gentler than usual, carrying a hint of wistful emotion.

Cao Xing understood what she meant.

Although in his perception, only seven days had passed since he parted ways with Liu Muxue.

But in her dream, a long time must have passed.

It may take several years, or even decades.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Cao Xing wore a faint smile, then stepped forward and embraced the beauty.

Liu Muxue also reached out and tightly embraced his waist.

The silver armor made a slight metallic scraping sound when it touched the robe.

The two stayed close together for a few minutes, talking quietly.

During this time, Liu Muxue also briefly recounted her experiences in the dream to Cao Xing.

"I became a knight named 'Lina,' guarding a small town on the northern snowfields..."

Her voice was soft, yet carried a certain strength born of experience, "Having gone through many battles, watching the townspeople go from fear to trust..."

Cao Xing listened quietly and found that her experience was similar to that of Sarah and Bloom, who had entered earlier.

They all became another person in their dreams and experienced that person's entire life.

It is worth noting that the world Liu Muxue is in in her dream is also this world.

This was different from what Cao Xing had imagined: that these otherworldly lords would enter other worlds after entering the Dream Library.

In short, after experiencing a series of life-and-death trials, Liu Muxue stayed in the dream for nearly twenty years.

On that day, she also sensed that the dream was about to collapse.

Numerous cracks appeared in the sky, and his power gradually returned.

So, before the dream completely collapsed, she brought back something she considered most precious.

Liu Muxue released the embrace and took out an ancient book with a dark golden light from the backpack at her waist.

The book cover is embossed with a crest of a longsword and a shield crossed.

“This is…” Cao Xing’s eyes widened slightly. He could feel a powerful and majestic force contained within the book.

Liu Muxue explained, "This is a book of a knight's legacy."

"Moreover, this is not an ordinary knight, but a top-level expert who is infinitely close to the demigod realm."

Upon hearing this description, a hint of surprise flashed in Cao Xing's eyes again: "So close to demigod, and there's such a powerful knight?"

Liu Muxue nodded gently, "Yes, she was also my master in the dream..."

"This book of heritage records a heroic-level combat skill and a legendary combat skill that she created herself."

"And... another demigod-level combat technique that was only half completed."

Cao Xing was immediately startled, and at the same time realized the importance of the book that Liu Muxue had brought back.

This kind of "Book of Inheritance" is actually similar to items like the "Sword Saint's Manual" and the "Archmage's Magic Manual".

It allows indigenous people to learn the skills recorded in the book by constantly reading and practicing its contents.

However, this manual is clearly more valuable, as it records a knight's own hero-level and legendary combat techniques!

The rarity and value of this level of skill is self-evident.

Learning any one of these skills can significantly enhance the strength of those powerful knights.

However, he also noticed Liu Muxue's last sentence.

"What do you mean by half a demigod-level combat skill?" Cao Xing asked curiously.

Liu Muxue opened the book and pointed to the last page: "That knight master encountered an accident when he broke through to the demigod realm, and this combat technique was only deduced halfway before it was interrupted..."

"However, she said this before she died."

"If in the future any knight is able to comprehend the heroic and legendary combat techniques he left behind."

"So when this knight breaks through to demigod level, he will most likely be able to complete the demigod skill that was only half-developed."

Upon hearing this, Cao Xing's eyes lit up with realization: "So that's how it is..."

At this moment, a new question arose in his mind.

"Mu Xue, as far as I know, only the indigenous people can learn this kind of book of inheritance."

"This thing shouldn't be of any use to us?"

Upon hearing this, the female knight smiled sweetly, then slowly shook her head and said, "Ah Xing, that's not how it is."

“I had the same thought as you before, but during that time in the dream, I figured it out.”

"In fact, we survivors of Earth are no different from these natives in essence."

"We are all human and have the same learning ability."

"What they can do, we can do too, it just takes more time and effort..."

She paused, as if thinking about something, and then used an analogy: "For example, Wei Jianyi, whom we encountered before."

"Wei Jianyi?" Upon hearing this familiar name, Cao Xing's eyes showed a look of doubt.

"Yes."

Liu Muxue nodded slightly, then slowly explained, "This person has an exceptional talent for swordsmanship, even surpassing the talent of most people in this world."

"Therefore, he can understand and practice the swordsmanship traditions left by these indigenous people."

"We are the same."

Cao Xing nodded in sudden realization, a glimmer of understanding flashing in his eyes: "I understand now. So, you can also learn the skills from this Book of Inheritance."

"Yes, but I don't need to practice."

Liu Muxue raised the corners of her lips slightly, revealing a confident smile: "I had already learned the Heroic and Legendary combat skills mentioned above while in the dream."

Cao Xing looked at her with surprise, his eyes showing admiration.

"Great job, Mu Xue!"

In her dream, she not only brought back such a precious manual, but also learned two powerful skills in advance, which can be said to be a great gain.

This made Cao Xing even more amazed by the wonder of the Dream Library, to the point that... he himself wanted to go in and experience it.

Faced with Cao Xing's praise, Liu Muxue also showed a happy smile.

At this moment, she took the initiative to hand over the precious manual, saying, "Here you go, Ah Xing, this manual is for you to handle."

Cao Xing glanced at her but didn't say anything more.

Given their relationship, there's no need for further formalities.

The moment he took the manual, he felt a warm energy emanating from its pages.
