Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem

Chapter 835: Chapter 317: The Territory’s Greatest Upgrade Yet!

Hilton tentatively asked, ”Lord Cao Xing, are you planning to sell a batch of these eggs?”

Cao Xing shook his head, ”Not currently. The quantity of these eggs is too limited at the moment. I’ll contact you once my production increases.”

Hearing this, Hilton nodded.

Meanwhile, a bit of hope arose in his heart.

Then the two talked about some other matters.

All were about some minor details in business.

Although Cao Xing currently had no plan to develop a commercial city, it might come in handy in the near future.

There is no harm in learning more.

Hilton also explained everything to Cao Xing in great detail.

Including trading in different cities, how much tax to submit, how to bribe those financial personnel, and how to quickly sell off the goods in hand etc...

A moment later, the conversation between the two was almost over.

Hilton glanced around and continued, ”Lord Cao Xing, I see your territory has expanded quite a bit since last time.”

”Although you Chosen Lords have a rather special status, and you don’t even need a noble title to have certain special privileges.”

”But here, ultimately, it is the fief of those nobles.”

”So I must remind you.”

”Previously, the territories of other Chosen Lords were not large, at most just some small settlements.”

”But reaching your scale, I fear it will catch the attention and opposition of the baron in this area!”

”They certainly won’t allow such a large armed force to gather in their fief.”

”You should be prepared for targeting by these nobles.”

”If necessary, choosing to lose some wealth to prevent disaster is not a bad way.”

Upon hearing Hilton’s reminder, Cao Xing also nodded.

Of course, he was aware that the expansion of his territory would attract the attention of local barons or viscounts.

However, he had already made arrangements in advance.

Currently, in this region where Cao Xing was, the baron had already died.

The newly appointed baron was still his man.

And was about to be firmly controlled by him.

Next, Cao Xing could expand as he wished.

Even if other nobles were dissatisfied, they couldn’t do anything about it.

If asked, he would just say it was approved by the baron. So what?

Unless one day the baron here changes, or Cao Xing’s territory expands beyond Fitz Walker’s territory boundary.

Then others would come to him.

After finishing the conversation, Hilton bid farewell to Cao Xing.

Then happily left with a few barrels of milk.

Cao Xing himself, after Hilton left, a smile reappeared on his lips.

”Very well, the crowns are collected, and the food is also gathered.”

”Now, it’s time to digest last night’s gains!”

Cao Xing organized a pile of items in his backpack.

Besides those souls and Hearts of Power, there were also five golden weapons.

All were weapons dropped from those White Robed Priests, with levels not low, up to Level 40.

There were also a dozen purple weapons and equipment.

However, purple equipment, for him, was not much of an improvement.

Cao Xing decided to hand them all over to Harold to handle, or sell them directly on the trading market later.

After all, at the current stage, survivors were still using green and blue equipment, and a piece of purple equipment was already considered expert level!

So the price of purple equipment was still very high.

The five golden weapons in the backpack were respectively [Magic Fish’s Thorn], [Predator Longbow], [Revelation Sword], [Merciful Battle Blade], [Giant Stone Hammer]...

Except for the dagger and the longbow, the other three were currently unusable for anyone.

So Cao Xing only checked the attributes of these two pieces of equipment.

[Magic Fish’s Thorn (Golden)]

[Quality: Treasure]

[Equipment Level: Level 40]

[Equipment Type: Single-Handed Weapon (Note: Can wield two different single-handed weapons simultaneously, attributes can stack, but weapon attack power will be adjusted.)]

[Attack Power: 572~633]

[Attached Effect ①: Agility +150, Power +80, Hit Rate +15%]

[Attached Effect ②: Magic Fish Power (Ignores 150 points of enemy’s armor during attack)]

[Attached Effect ③: Shadow of Magic Fish (At the moment of attack, 100% probability to convert 50% of spirit into agility)]

(Note: A dagger made from the most powerful part of some mysterious creature, now held in your hand, every swing seems to resonate the sound of that mysterious creature from the deep sea - Ocean Hunter: Kouyi Swan)

...

”Oh? Convert spirit into agility? That’s not bad.”

”And it only happens at the moment of attack, which kind of enhances Sarah’s attack power, without affecting the spiritual resistance at other times.”

He then glanced at the attributes of the other longbow.

[Predator Longbow (Golden)]

[Quality: Golden]

[Equipment Level: Level 40]

[Attack Power: 732~779]

[Attached Effect ①: Agility +280, Power +200, Critical Strike Rate +20%]

[Attached Effect ②: Hunting Instinct (Critical strike damage increased by 20%)]

[Attached Effect ③: Predator (Attacks gain 15% physical blood-sucking effect)]

...

”This longbow’s attributes are quite aggressive, it’s purely an output weapon.”

”However, Renice already has a Hunting Longbow, so this weapon can be given to Eliza.”

Cao Xing nodded in satisfaction.

As for the other three weapons, there was no need to look for now.

”Now, time to enhance those warriors!”

Cao Xing arrived at the central area of the territory.

He looked up.

A five-meter-tall black melting furnace was emitting heat.

Next to it, there was a spacious plaza.
