Chapter 75 - 72: Picking Up Money on the Road

The track robot began to move again, covering the wheel tracks on the ground.

Before long, they had completely entered this mountain range.

As the path climbed, the terrain gradually rose.

Fortunately, the track robot was an all-terrain robot; this kind of road was no challenge for it.

Cao Xing and Liu Muxue sat comfortably on the back of the robot.

Cao Xing even took out a handful of nuts from his backpack and shared half with Liu Muxue.

The two of them chewed on nuts while admiring the beautiful scenery of the snowy mountains.

From the looks of it, they didn’t seem to be on an adventure; instead, it looked like a leisure trip.

Not long after, Cao Xing suddenly noticed what seemed to be battle signs on the road ahead.

Two or three overturned carriages lay in a mess on the ground.

The icy snow was marred by patches of glaring blood.

Swoosh!

Assam was the first to draw his longsword, entering an alert state.

Cao Xing said, “Assam, go investigate what happened ahead.”

“At your command, Lord.”

Upon receiving the order, Assam immediately maneuvered the Frost Wolf forward.

It wasn’t long before he returned to report, “Lord, it was a human merchant caravan ahead of us; it seems they were attacked and have been completely wiped out.”

Cao Xing furrowed his brow in confusion, “Merchant caravan? Could it be Hilton’s group?”

Assam shook his head, “No, it was the Giant Commerce’s carriage; I saw a fist emblem on it.”

Cao Xing nodded in realization.

Giant Commerce was one of the three renowned trade associations, alongside Black Lion Commerce and Moon God Trading House, something Hilton had mentioned before.

“Attacked? Do we know who did it?”

Assam nodded, “Judging by the signs of battle and footprints on the ground, it seems they encountered the forest snow monsters.”

“These are fierce, violent creatures that target humans when they can’t find food in the snow.”

Cao Xing furrowed his brow, “How strong are these forest snow monsters?”

Assam pondered, “Forest snow monsters vary in strength, but most are not very powerful.”

“It’s said that they are guardians of the mountain god.”

Cao Xing nodded.

After hearing Assam mention that these forest snow monsters weren’t particularly strong, he began to relax.

Otherwise, he would have decided to retreat immediately!

Cao Xing nodded again, “Let’s go over and take a look.”

Then, he approached the three overturned carriages.

When Cao Xing saw the contents of the carriages, his eyes lit up.

Inside the overturned carriage were several cargo boxes filled with various items.

Cao Xing climbed down and approached one of the carriages.

A System Prompt appeared.

[Discovered Giant Commerce cargo box, open it?]

Cao Xing clicked ‘Yes’ without hesitation.

[Successfully opened.]

[Obtained Medina Rose Red Wine*32]

[Obtained Vidima Champion Liquor*30]

[Obtained Goat Milk*7 cans]

[Obtained Yak Meat*372]

[Obtained Sour Orange Juice Marinated Fish*172]

…

Most of the contents in the first carriage were food and some beverages.

In such icy conditions, these supplies were extremely valuable.

They could fetch high prices in the towns.

Cao Xing’s eyes gleamed when he read the descriptions of the two types of wine.

[Medina Rose Red Wine: Consuming it instantly restores 400 blood volume, and increases spirit by 10 points for 300 seconds, but there’s a 50% chance of entering a drunken state.]

(A favorite among knights, sold in the territory tavern, with a chance to attract powerful knights.)

[Vidima Champion Liquor: Consuming it instantly restores 300 blood volume, and increases power by 10 points for 300 seconds, with an 80% chance of entering a drunken state.]

(A favorite among polar warriors, sold in the territory tavern, with a chance to attract powerful warriors.)

…

“Oh? It can increase attributes and attract powerful knights and warriors?”

Cao Xing was overjoyed, realizing the preciousness of these beverages just from these points.

The key was that, because of his SSS-grade talent,

if he consumed them, he might be able to permanently increase attributes!

…

Cao Xing even considered drinking two bottles on the spot.

But consuming these would cause a drunken state.

So, Cao Xing decided to wait until he returned to the territory to test.

The first carriage already left him with significant gains.

And beside it, there were two more overturned carriages.

Cao Xing grew increasingly expectant.

He approached the second carriage, and a System Prompt appeared.

[Discovered Giant Commerce cargo box, open it?]

“Yes.”

[Successfully opened.]

[Obtained complete Snow Wolf Skin*7]

[Obtained complete Deer Skin*8]

[Obtained Wool Cloth Roll (White)*12 bolts]

[Obtained Linen Rolls (White)*15 bolts]

[Obtained Silk Cloth Rolls (Green)*13 bolts]

…

Cao Xing was delighted once more.

“Wow, it’s all fabric!”

With these fabrics, he could produce cold-resistant clothing in bulk at the [Tailor Shop].

At this stage, the value of cold-resistant clothing was beyond question.

On the market, many survivors wanted to trade their weapons and equipment for clothing but often couldn’t find any.

Cao Xing could use these fabrics to make clothing and trade with other survivors for precious resources!

“But there’s even green grade fabric rolls in here.”

“Does it have any special effects?”

Cao Xing checked.

[Silk Cloth Roll (Green): A fabric roll beloved by nobles, lightweight, and with strong cold resistance.]

(When made into clothing, it has a higher chance to add extra charm attribute.)

After reading the description, Cao Xing nodded and stored it.

He approached the third carriage and clicked open.

[Successfully opened.]

[Obtained coins*47,203]

[Obtained Magic Energy Stone*172]

[Obtained Special Pet Food*17 (Green)]

[Obtained Fine Iron (Blue)*72]

[Obtained Amber Pebble (Green)*12]

…

Another load of precious materials and over forty thousand coins of fortune.

The feeling of finding money was truly exhilarating.

Cao Xing almost fell in love with it.

“No wonder hunters love to rob merchant associations; the gains are too high!”

“But unfortunately, the resources of this convoy don’t match Hilton’s group.”

After all, at Hilton’s, he saw two purple grade equipment pieces and had hundreds of thousands of crowns, potions, and more.

Thinking about it, Cao Xing felt it was only natural.

After all, Hilton had a large guard team plus two third-tier elite guards.

With such strong protection, they wouldn’t have been taken out by a bunch of snow monsters.

Cao Xing then routinely checked the attributes of two new materials.

[Special Pet Food (Green): Specially made with a lot of animal insides and eyeballs, loved by all kinds of pets; increases loyalty by 1 point after feeding, with a feeding limit per pet of 5 times.]

(Note: Though the food is good, don’t feed too much~)

[Amber Pebble (Green): Can be embedded in weapons, adding 5 points of weapon attack power.]

(Embedded in the underground amber, seems to carry some kind of weak power.)

…

“Oh? This pet food can increase loyalty?”

Cao Xing was amused, then directly took a piece and tossed it to Da Bai.

Da Bai instinctively opened his mouth.

In the next moment, Da Bai’s pupils widened, as if tasting some gourmet delicacy, wolfing it down.

At this time, a system prompt appeared.

[Your pet, Da Bai, ate the Special Pet Food, loyalty +1, satiety +3.]

Haha! It did increase loyalty!

Cao Xing continued to feed.

After the fifth feeding, the system prompted that the feeding limit was reached.

And Da Bai’s loyalty was 95, soon to unlock the mount feature.

At this point, Da Bai was still looking at Cao Xing eagerly, seemingly craving another taste of that delicious food.

Cao Xing patted its head and said, “Can’t eat too much of this in a day, I’ll feed you again next time, be good.”

Da Bai understood and reluctantly turned his head to the side.

All the supplies in the three carriages had been collected by Cao Xing.

Looking at the overturned carriages and the bloodstains everywhere,

Cao Xing said, “If I have the chance, I’ll slay those snow monsters for you, as payment for taking these supplies.”

After saying this, he led the group forward again.

Along the mountain path, Cao Xing and his party advanced about two kilometers.

Along the way, perhaps due to fear of Da Bai’s huge size or because of their numbers,

Cao Xing wasn’t attacked by the monsters.

Half an hour later, they were about three kilometers into the mountains.

The terrain was already high here, with an altitude of at least eight hundred meters.

Cao Xing opened the map again and checked the distance to [Teluo Mountain].

Then he said, “Almost there, we are about to reach Teluo Mountain. This is where Nif and her sister got separated.”

“Starting now, everyone should keep an eye on the surroundings, looking for signs of battle or escape.”

After all, Nif’s sister was being chased by a giant troll at the time, and to evade, she might have run out of the Teluo Mountain area.

Upon hearing Cao Xing’s instructions, everyone began observing the surroundings.

Meanwhile, Sarah vanished, exploring the area.

The group searched as they moved forward.

Soon, they reached [Teluo Mountain] on the map.

It’s a high mountain covered with thick snow, sparsely populated with birch trees and some shrubs growing.

The terrain was extremely steep, impossible for a normal person to climb.

“How did those merchant caravans pass through such steep terrain?”

Cao Xing pondered this question.

Teluo Mountain was a necessary pass through the Borialis Mountains; circumventing it would mean returning the same way and detouring dozens of kilometers, wasting much time.

At this moment, Assam reported, “Lord, there is a small path ahead that seems to go through Teluo Mountain.”
