Chapter 16: Chapter 16: Dissecting the Fierce Bear's Corpse, A Great Harvest!

“`
Cao Xing nodded to himself.

Only by demonstrating great power could subordinates be more loyal to you.

The same principle applied in any world.

He looked at Assam, then took out a fiery red crystal from his carrying backpack.

This was the “Basic Power Heart” obtained after killing the Fierce Bear.

“Basic Power Heart: Can only be acquired from some powerful creatures.”
“Item Effect: Allows a survivor or territory member who has reached Level 10 to complete the advancement.

After advancing, all attributes increase by 100%.”
In the Ice Seal Age, each advancement brought a terrifying enhancement.

At the very least, it was a 100% attribute increase.

Without resorting to other means, crossing battles between different levels was a difficult task.

And Assam, being a Level 10 creature, met the advancement conditions.

So, Cao Xing directly tossed the “Heart of Power” to him.

Assam instinctively caught it and held the power-filled crystal in his hand, surprise filling his eyes.

He incredulously asked, “Lord, can I really have such a precious Heart of Power?”
Cao Xing nodded and said, “Assam, you've proven your courage and wit in this action.

I believe you deserve to have stronger power.”
“So, please accept this Heart of Power, and let's build a more prosperous territory together!”
Assam's eyes brimmed with tears, and he struck his chest with one hand, standing tall and exclaimed excitedly, “I am willing to give my life for the Lord.”
“‘Assam' has been moved by your actions, loyalty has increased, current loyalty is 95 (Deadly Loyalty).”
Seeing this prompt, Cao Xing was overjoyed.

Once loyalty reached above 90, these soldiers entered a state of deadly loyalty; even if you sent them to die, they would execute without hesitation.

This way, he didn't have to worry about Assam rebelling.

Under the gaze of everyone,
right in front of Cao Xing, Assam crushed the Heart of Power.

“Crack!”
The sound of shattering glass echoed as a red mist was absorbed by Assam.

Amidst the surprised gazes of everyone, Assam's aura rapidly rose to a frightening level in the blink of an eye.

A system prompt appeared.

“Your territory member: Assam has completed his advancement, with all attributes increasing by 100%.”
Cao Xing nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Assam's attributes after the advancement.

“Frost Wolf Knight: Assam (Second Order)”
“Race: Human Clan”
“Level: 10 Level 1722/10000”
“Life Value: 2040”
“Attack Power: 274~289”
“Armor: 24~27”
“Attributes: Power 114, Agility 108, Spirit 96, Constitution 102”
“Hunger Level: 72”
“Loyalty: 95”
…

“Good, good, good!”
Cao Xing looked at Assam's panel with satisfaction.

Without a doubt, this upgrade brought about a qualitative change in his strength.

Beside him, Yilena watched Assam's transformation with full envy.

Noticing her gaze, Cao Xing said, “Yilena, perform well.

When you reach Level 10, I will also find you a Heart of Power, allowing you to break through to the Second Order.”
Upon hearing this, Yilena's slitted eyes widened instantly, and she looked at Cao Xing with excitement, saying, “Thank you for your generosity, Lord!”
“Yilena is willing to give everything for the Lord!”
“‘Yilena' has been moved by your words, loyalty has increased, current loyalty 85.”
Sure enough, loyalty improved again.

Cao Xing was delighted, as a qualified Lord should excel at creating visions.

Then, Cao Xing began to examine the two rewards for first killing the Snowy Blizzard Bear.

“Ice Plain Druid Recruitment Scroll (Purple): Can summon a powerful Level 15 Elite Druid through this scroll!”
(Note: Although the Ice Plain Druid is powerful, his daily food intake is astonishing.

Please ensure you have sufficient food~)
Seeing the prompt above, Cao Xing's pupils shrank immediately.

Oh my!

Level 15 Elite Monster!

This was too formidable!

The powerful combat power displayed by the Snowy Blizzard Bear just now revealed how terrifying a Level 15 Elite Monster was!

If not for Cao Xing possessing the “Barrett,” such a great weapon, all their combined forces wouldn't last half a minute against the Snowy Blizzard Bear.

However, the system also warned that the ‘Ice Plain Druid' had a tremendous appetite.

Ordinary survivors might not even be able to sustain it.

Cao Xing continued to check the other reward.

“Basic Elemental Arrow Tower Blueprint: Can construct a defensive arrow tower in the territory.”
“Attack Power: 213~247 (20% probability to deal an additional 45 points of elemental damage)”
“Attack Interval: 2.5 seconds/1 time”
“Maximum Range: 600 meters”
“Armor: 20 points”
“Durability Value: 2000/2000”
“Occupied Area: 12 square meters”
“Building Height: 15 meters”
“Required construction materials: Wood *300, Stone *200, Iron *50, Basic Elemental Crystal *10”
…

After examining the attributes of this elemental arrow tower, Cao Xing was overjoyed once again.

What a masterpiece, with more than two hundred attack power, it could instantly kill a Level 5 creature like Yilena with one shot; this was another powerful weapon!

Even an unadvanced Assam might very well be shot down before reaching the base of the arrow tower in a one-on-one scenario.

After all, it had a range of 600 meters.

Moreover, the materials required for this elemental arrow tower were not complex and could be mass-produced.

The only troublesome part was the “Basic Elemental Crystal.”
This item only dropped from powerful creatures like the Snowy Blizzard Bear or found in treasure boxes.

However, with the “Market,” this wasn't a difficult task for Cao Xing.

Cao Xing believed that even if such materials were hard to come by, given the sheer number of survivors, many would surely acquire such materials.

Finally, after reviewing the harvest, Cao Xing nodded in satisfaction.

Although this battle consumed five Barrett Bullets, the rewards were extraordinary.

It was truly a great harvest.

And that's not all; aside from these spoils of war, there was another reward yet to be handled.

Cao Xing looked at the massive corpse in front of him.

“Snowy Blizzard Bear Corpse (Blue): Can be dismantled.”
Cao Xing directly clicked on dismantle.

Then, the bear-like body of the Snowy Blizzard Bear was enveloped in a burst of white light.

When the white light dissipated, a pile of fresh bear meat, a large bear skin, a pair of bear paws, and a heap of bones appeared like a small hill.

“Fresh Bear Meat (Blue) *1215”
(Contains immense power-bearing bear meat.

After the first consumption, Power +2, Constitution +2)
“Complete Snowy Blizzard Bear Skin (Blue)”
(A complete bear skin with excellent cold-resistant properties, can provide a certain armor effect when tailored into clothes at the Sewing Shop.)
“Snowy Blizzard Bear Paw (Purple) *2”
(A type of precious spoils, it is said that Avalon nobles specially collect such bear paws for their collections, which can be sold at a handsome price.)
“Snowy Blizzard Bear Gallbladder (Blue) *1”
(Has strong effects, after the first consumption, can permanently increase life value by 200 points, remember to cook it before eating~)
“Snowy Blizzard Bear Bones *172 (Blue)”
(The extremely hard bones of the Fierce Bear can be processed at the Blacksmith Shop to make Growth Spears or other weapons.)
…

Whoa!

Over a thousand pieces of bear meat?

Cao Xing was shocked; breaking it down, that equaled more than six thousand units of food!

And what was the key point?

The key was that this bear meat could increase attributes!

An increase of 2 points in Power and Constitution.

For those in the Warrior profession, it was close to a 4 point increase in attack power and 40 points in life value, plus a 1 point increase in armor.

Right now, survivors were in dire need of food, especially attribute-increasing meat!

If put on the “Market” for trading, Cao Xing believed it would certainly spark fierce competition among survivors.

He seemed to see a vast fortune rushing toward him, making even his breath hasten a bit!
