Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem
Chapter 492 - 223: Firmly Holding First Place, Blizzard Approaches! (6200)_4

Eliza nodded like a chick pecking at rice, "That's right!"

"My mother left when I was very young, and then my father, to ensure I grew up healthy, would bring me fresh yak milk to drink every day."

"It's a habit I've had since I was little, haha..."

Eliza laughed sheepishly.

Cao Xing gave her a curious look.

Old Mel raised a lot of cows, so having plenty of milk for his daughter was normal.

But Eliza had been drinking so much milk since she was young, how come she hadn't developed?

That flat chest, and height barely reaching one meter sixty...

Noticing Cao Xing's gaze, Eliza curiously looked at him.

Cao Xing smiled and then took out two bottles of [Cloud Yak Milk] from his backpack.

"Here you go, remember to give Little Chuchu one bottle."

Eliza happily took them, "Wow! Thank you, Lord!"

With that, she skipped over to Tong Chuchu to share the delicious milk.

After everyone was full and satisfied,

they all stood up again.

Then they resumed exploring the area around the castle, roughly within a ten-kilometer radius.

From noon to a little after three o'clock in the afternoon, they went through two more battles.

During this time, Cao Xing gained a large number of [Intermediate Power Hearts], as well as quite a few elite souls and boss souls.

In addition, they collected more than twenty thousand [Nightmare Cannibal Flower Spikes], along with a pile of miscellaneous blue-grade and purple-grade materials.

Imagine how astonishing their haul was today!

Especially those spikes, if all forged into arrows by Harold and then taken to the [Market] for trade,

they could certainly fetch Cao Xing a great amount of resources.

At this moment,

Cao Xing and the others continued trudging through the forest.

He glanced at the time.

[Time until nightfall: 3 hours 07 minutes...]

...

"Only 3 hours left, we need to hurry back."

"Indeed, when you're busy, time just flies."

Cao Xing thought with a smile.

"Now, it's time to distribute these advanced power hearts and enhance everyone's strength."

Just then, he suddenly looked up.

Because he saw many thick, sturdy trees.

After dealing with them these past two days,

they now could distinguish between ordinary large trees and human-faced trees through some subtle details.

Clearly, these in front of them were human-faced trees.

Cao Xing said, "Shoot two arrows to test."

Upon hearing this,

Eliza and Renice simultaneously drew their bowstrings.

"Swish! Swish!"

The arrows hit!

Those human-faced trees immediately shed their disguise.

"Rattle..."

Dozens of ancient trees turned simultaneously, revealing pale human faces on their trunks.

Cao Xing scanned them with his gaze.

He discovered a group of human-faced trees, ranging from level 38 to level 40.

Among them were 5 elite human-faced trees, and 3 boss human-faced trees.

The most crucial was a level 39 leader-level human-faced tree amongst them!

This made Cao Xing extremely excited!

"Great, great, great! Finally, another leader-level creature has appeared!"

Today, although they killed many monsters, most were bosses and elites, and only one leader-level creature had been encountered.

It hadn't even dropped any soul!

Now, Cao Xing finally encountered another leader-level creature.

Thus, he quickly commanded, "The usual plan."

"Blom, Da Bai, Wally Bell, handle that leader-level human-faced tree."

"Isabell, Hilda, Assam, each of you take on one boss-level human-faced tree."

"Jonard, Jonsent, deal with the 5 elite human-faced trees."

"Everyone else, focus on killing the regular human-faced trees!"

With Cao Xing's orders, everyone promptly targeted their respective objectives!

Compared to yesterday, hadn't their strength increased significantly?

Renice had evolved into a leader.

Hilda and Isabell had broken through to the fourth rank.

And those archers of the Nightmare Court, all their abilities had significantly increased!

Especially Renice.

In the [Heart of Hunting] state, she was enveloped in red energy.

She swiftly drew her bowstring.

"Swish! Swish, swish!"

One arrow after another shot out, striking the leader human-faced tree, causing one powerful burst of damage after another.

[-4072!]

[-4132!]

[-4093!]

...

Every arrow was a critical hit.

Her output now could rival that of Isabell, a fourth-rank Holy Light Priest!
