Chapter 33: Chapter 33: Bear Gall Soup, Blood Volume Increase

System Announcement, “All survivors, please note, the Level Ranking List update is complete.”

Hearing this announcement, survivors across all major regions globally immediately opened the ranking list.

Survivors from Area 174 were no exception.

However, the rankings exceeded everyone's expectations.

[Area 174 Level Ranking List]

[First Place: Cao Xing (Level 4, 1%)]

[Second Place: Wu Xinghu (Level 3, 25%)]

[Third Place: Zhou Bo (Level 3, 14%)]

[Fourth Place: Ren Yixu (Level 3, 10%)]

[Fifth Place: Fang Long (Level 3, 7%)]

[Sixth Place…]

…

Seeing this ranking list, the chat channel of Area 174 fell into a brief silence.

Then, it was flooded with messages.

Chen Hua: “Whoa! It's not Fang Long or Wu Xinghu, the first place is actually Big Brother Cao Xing!”

Tao Mumu: “I really didn't expect it, Big Brother Cao Xing is actually first, so strong!”

Liu Dashu: “How did Big Brother Cao Xing do it?”

Everyone expressed their shock.

A survivor named Du Rong said, “I think there's no need for everyone to be so surprised, Big Brother Cao Xing is the man who killed a bear; getting first place doesn't come as a surprise.”

“Haha, I also think Big Brother Cao Xing deserves it. Thanks to his bear meat, my whole family has improved their attributes and not only survived a life-and-death crisis but also begun to develop our territory.”

“Exactly, exactly, I'm convinced Big Brother Cao Xing is in first place.”

In the chat channel, the praises toward Cao Xing were nearly unanimous.

After all, his bear meat indeed helped many people.

At this time, Fang Long and Zhou Bo looked a bit grim.

“Damn! How did this kid get first?”

Fang Long's face showed a bit of anger and disbelief.

But he quickly regained his composure.

Fang Long slowly took a breath and said, “Fortunately, it's just a one-level gap, and there's still three days before the newbie protection period ends, totally enough for me to catch up in levels!”

On the other side, Zhou Bo also had an intrigued smile on his face.

“Interesting, I originally thought this kid just had good luck, offending Fang Long was the end for him.”

“Now, it seems he does have some skills.”

Zhou Bo opened his friend list, then clicked on the private chat and said, “Go, use your network to investigate the background of this Cao Xing.”

At this moment, in the Lord's Hut.

Outside the window, the snow reflected light, and the cold wind howled.

Inside the room, a warm stove emitted heat.

The wooden bed creaked, and the temperature under the blankets was rapidly rising.

The beauty's face was flushed with embarrassment, turning her head away, not daring to look into Cao Xing's eyes, her hands tightly clasping his neck.

“Axing… Axing…”

The beauty's call was long and ethereal.

The room was filled with the sweetness of the cloud and rain.

Moments later, following a long and ethereal coquettish sound, the movement in the room gradually settled.

Liu Muxue collapsed into Cao Xing's arms, her eyes full of daze.

At this moment, they also heard the system announcement.

Liu Muxue curved her swan-like jade neck, her eyes filled with excitement as she said, “Axing, you are in first place; you are awesome!”

Cao Xing shook his head, unconcerned, “Just a temporary first, can't relax until I get the rewards.”

Liu Muxue looked at him admiringly, “That's impressive enough, considering there are tens of thousands in our Area 174!”

Cao Xing smiled, “Tomorrow we must continue to work hard too, see if we can get you into the top ten rewards.”

Liu Muxue nodded slightly, clenching her pink fist in response, “Mm, mm! I'll do my best!”

It seemed that the large movement touched certain parts, and Liu Muxue's face reddened again.

She cautiously looked at Cao Xing, only to find him looking at her as well.

Cao Xing lowered his head to kiss her again.

“Mmm…”

The beauty was gentle and tender, her body gradually relaxing from initial stiffness.

Her body writhed like a water snake, and she actively entwined Cao Xing.

The night temperature began to drop rapidly.

However, the temperature in the room was still rising…

The two had a wonderful night together.

…

Early the next morning.

Cao Xing saw a few system prompts.

[Your territory construction, “Small Shelter,” has been successfully built…]

[Your territory construction, “Basic Elemental Arrow Tower,” has been successfully built…]

Cao Xing's eyes lit up immediately, “The Arrow Tower construction was successful!”

Through the window of the Lord's Hut, Cao Xing saw a 15-meter-high hexagonal tower appear at the edge of the Camp Fire.

The entire tower was made of stone, emanating faint elemental waves, full of deterrence.

If any enemy approached within a 600-meter area of the camp, the arrow tower would automatically launch an attack, very powerful!

Cao Xing said with satisfaction, “Great, with this, there's no need to worry about safety near the territory, those Polar People can go out and gather resources better too.”

Meanwhile.

There was a knock on the door.

Cao Xing and Liu Muxue had gotten dressed and looked toward the door, saying, “Come in.”

The subject Sihua brought in a bowl of Bear Gall Soup and a portion of roasted Bear Meat.

Rich meat aroma wafted through the air.

Sihua spoke softly, “Lord, I've prepared the Bear Gall Soup and roasted Bear Meat as you requested, please enjoy.”

Cao Xing nodded, “Just place it on the wood table.”

These two ingredients both enhanced attributes.

Bear gall could directly increase life value by 200 points, and bear meat could increase power and constitution by 2 points.

For Cao Xing and Liu Muxue, they were substantial enhancements.

This was also what Cao Xing instructed these subjects to do yesterday.

Sihua nodded and then respectfully withdrew.

Cao Xing then took Liu Muxue to the dining table.

He tasted a few bites of bear meat first.

Instantly, his mouth was filled with the aroma of meat.

Cao Xing praised, “The professional chef's skills are indeed good.”

A system prompt appeared.

[Consuming Bear Meat (Blue) successfully, obtained attribute boost, Power +2, Constitution +2.]

Sure enough, he gained an attribute boost.

Then, Cao Xing started picking up bear gall from the bowl with his chopsticks.

Strangely, even after eating several bites, he did not receive an attribute boost prompt from the system.

“Hmm?”

Cao Xing was a bit puzzled and continued to eat the bear gall.

It wasn't until he was almost full that the system prompt appeared.

[Successfully consumed bear gall, maximum Life Value increased by 200.]

Cao Xing showed a pleased expression, “So you have to eat half of the bear gall to gain attribute improvement.”

“Looks like the remaining half can boost again.”

So he looked at Liu Muxue beside him and said, “Muxue, you come here too.”

“Half of this bear gall should give you an attribute enhancement.”

Liu Muxue obediently came over, picked up the chopsticks Cao Xing used, and began eating.

The Bear Gall Soup was delicious, and it took Liu Muxue a few minutes to finish.

Then, she excitedly looked at Cao Xing and said, “Axing, my life value increased too.”

Cao Xing nodded.

A single bear gall brought them a total of 400 points in blood volume increase, quite substantial.

Unfortunately, this food only worked the first time it was consumed.

At that moment, a system prompt rang.

[Survivors, congratulations on surviving the third night of the Ice Seal Age.]

[Remaining time for Newbie Protection, 2 days, and 22 hours.]

[Weather Report, there will be a small snowfall tonight, with the lowest temperature reaching -70℃, please ensure warmth against the cold.]
