Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem Chapter 34 – Chapter 34: Chapter 34: Phantom Assassin, Reporting to You

Chapter 34: Chapter 34: Phantom Assassin, Reporting to You

“`

Cao Xing felt a stirring in his heart. There were three days left in the newbie protection period, enough time for him to level up to Level 10.

Liu Muxue softly inquired, “Axing, will it snow tonight?”

Cao Xing nodded, “Yes, it will snow, but fortunately, it won't be a storm.”

“With our territory's current facilities, we can withstand it.”

Liu Muxue nodded gently.

Then, Cao Xing led her to push open the door of the Lord's Hut together.

Outside, the Polar People along with the newly joined subjects were already waiting.

Seeing Cao Xing come out, they said in unison, “Peace to the Lord!”

“Good morning, Lord. Please assign us today's work!”

The subjects were full of enthusiasm. Previously, they lived barely surviving lives.

Just arriving on the first day at Cao Xing's territory, they already felt the potential for development.

So, they cherished this opportunity very much.

Cao Xing nodded, “Today, continue with the tasks I assigned yesterday.”

“Gather more resources to upgrade the bonfire and Lord's Hut.”

“Let's work together to build a more prosperous territory!”

The subjects responded respectfully, “As you command, Lord.”

“Willing to sacrifice everything for the development of the territory!”

They dispersed and began their day's work.

At this time, Xia Yanni and Tong Chuchu, each holding a set of thick clothes, stood quietly by the side waiting.

Seeing that Cao Xing had finished assigning tasks, Xia Yanni cautiously approached and said, “M…Master, the clothes are ready.”

As a modern person, she seemed not quite used to such titles.

Cao Xing nodded, “Thank you for your hard work.”

“It's nothing…” Xia Yanni replied softly.

After saying this, she and Tong Chuchu handed the newly sewn Wolf Skin Coats to Cao Xing and Liu Muxue respectively.

[Received Wolf Skin Coat (white) *1, Wolf Skin Hat (white) *1]

These two garments had no additional attributes, but they were excellent at keeping warm.

After putting them on, they immediately felt isolated from the piercing cold of this world.

Looking at the dark circles under Xia Yanni's eyes, Cao Xing knew she must have stayed up late last night.

Therefore, Cao Xing took out two pieces of Bear Meat and a bottle of milk and handed them to Xia Yanni.

Xia Yanni accepted them, her eyes filled with surprise.

“Lord…lord, such precious meat and milk, are you sure I can have them?”

Cao Xing nodded, “Chuchu is still young, let her have some for nourishment.”

Xia Yanni's eyes turned slightly red.

She held Tong Chuchu's hand and nodded solemnly, “Thank you, thank you…”

Tong Chuchu also happily hugged the milk, saying with joy, “Thank you, big brother.”

…

After arranging the tasks, Cao Xing called Assam over.

“Assam, did you find anything else when you went out yesterday besides rescuing Dahua and the others?”

Assam replied respectfully, “Yes, Lord, I followed your instructions and drew a map of the surrounding area.”

“However, since I haven't finished exploring, the map is incomplete.”

Cao Xing was delighted, “Even if it's incomplete, let me see it.”

Assam nodded and then took out a piece of yellowed parchment from Frost Wolf's back and handed it to Cao Xing.

A system prompt appeared.

[Received Incomplete Map *1]

Cao Xing saw that the map recorded Assam's route.

Liu Muxue also peeked over curiously to look at the map.

However, upon seeing the simplistic art style on the parchment, she immediately chuckled.

It marked some resource points.

For example, a tree indicated a place with wood resources.

A small chicken symbolized a place with Beast activity.

A stone stood for a mineral resource location.

Thanks to Cao Xing's excellent comprehension ability, he could decipher the meanings.

Assam looked a bit embarrassed and scratched his head, “I… I haven't learned drawing, so I could only sketch it simply.”

Liu Muxue comforted him, “It's fine as long as it's understandable.”

Assam gratefully nodded, “Thank you, my beautiful and kind deputy lord.”

At this time, Cao Xing pointed to a dark hole next to the territory and asked, “Assam, what is this?”

Assam replied somewhat embarrassedly, “Lord, that's a mine.”

“But it's already occupied by a group of Mole Men. I heard the rumbling of machines nearby.”

Machines' rumbling?

Cao Xing's eyes lit up.

Because this indicated that inside the mine, there might be some technological creations.

Cao Xing asked, “Assam, how strong are the Mole Men?”

Assam shook his head, “Back to you, Lord, I didn't go inside to investigate.”

“But the Mole Men are subterranean creatures, generally around first-tier in strength. Occasionally, there might be some second or third-tier Mole Men.”

After hearing this, Cao Xing already had an idea.

The mine was about six kilometers away from the territory, taking roughly two hours for a round trip.

Thus, Cao Xing nodded, “Very good, our goal today is to explore the Mole Man Mine.”

“Let's aim to level up Muxue and myself.”

Assam respectfully bowed, “Always ready to serve, esteemed Lord.”

Beside him, Andrew's eyes were filled with devotion, and he was also prepared for battle.

However, before setting out, Cao Xing had one more thing to do.

That was to use the Recruitment Scroll to strengthen his team's power.

Cao Xing pulled a scroll out of his bag.

[Phantom Assassin Recruitment Scroll (Blue): This scroll can summon a Phantom Assassin with level 20 elite strength.]

Undoubtedly, this would be the most powerful being Cao Xing recruited.

“Recruit?”

Cao Xing clicked yes without hesitation.

In a flash, the scene in front of him changed.

This time, what appeared before Cao Xing was not a hexagram.

Instead, it was a swirl of black mist.

The black mist expanded rapidly, engulfing the entire camp in seconds.

Cao Xing saw a silhouette moving inside.

There was no aura emanating from this figure, yet it gave Cao Xing a sense of intense danger.

The next moment, the mist dissipated.

Before Cao Xing stood a woman clad in a black cloak and tight-fitting black leather armor.

The outfit accentuated her perfect body curves.

On her head, a dark helmet obscured most of her face, leaving only her bluish skin and slightly rosy lips visible.

She slowly spoke, “The Shadow Holy Hall needs protection, and that's why I am here.”

“Phantom Assassin Sarah Blade Dance reporting to you!”

…
