Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem

Chapter 423 - 204: Selling Golden Salmon, a Sensational Market!_2

[Armor: 300]

[Durability Value: 6000]

[Occupied Area: 294 Square Meters]

[Height: 8 Meters]

[Construction Requirements: Lord Mansion Level 6, Wood*10,000, Stone*10,000, Iron*3,000, Mithril*200, Constant Gold Ingot*40, Demon Pattern Stone*20, Advanced Elemental Crystals*10]

[Construction Time: 67 hours 17 minutes]

(Symbolizing the honor of the Knight Hall, once built, it increases territory prosperity and attracts Knight series creatures to join the territory.)

…

After examining these two blueprints, a satisfied smile appeared on Cao Xing’s face.

“Not bad, not bad, it can actually increase experience value by 1,000 points per hour. If training is continuous, it will be 24,000 experience points a day!”

“This speed was quite fast!”

However, increasing experience value was not the most powerful function of these two construction blueprints.

Their main purpose was to allow Mage species and Knight series creatures to learn skills inside them.

Just this function alone was worthy of its Golden Quality attribute.

At this moment, Cao Xing regretfully said, “But it’s a pity there aren’t any golden blueprints for warrior types, otherwise, there are quite a few warriors in my territory.”

“Like the Ascalon Army, the Wild Boar Warrior Army, and so on…”

“When the Warrior Tower is built, it would greatly enhance my strength.”

Moreover, Cao Xing noticed that both these blueprints required [Demon Pattern Stone] and [Constant Gold Ingot] for construction.

In addition, Cao Xing remembered he also had a [King Altar] blueprint, which also needed these two materials for construction.

He glanced at the reserves in his backpack.

[Constant Gold Ingot*64]

[Demon Pattern Stone*31]

…

Cao Xing shook his head, “Not quite there, the gap in these two materials is too big, looks like I still need to gather more.”

Thus, Cao Xing amended the auction information.

[100g Golden Salmon Meat = 20 Constant Gold Ingot, 10 Demon Pattern Stone, limited trade, first come first served.]

Seeing Cao Xing’s amended auction information, it immediately triggered another commotion among the survivors.

“Cao Xing has modified the trade conditions. Whoever has these materials, go check it out quickly!”

“He’s asking for Demon Pattern Stones and Constant Gold Ingots? I think I only have five Demon Pattern Stones on hand, not enough for one share, I need to find someone to borrow some, and then come to trade with Cao Xing!”

Previously, the advanced materials in the hands of survivors in District 174 were almost all collected by Cao Xing.

Some people might still have treasured materials, but there was nothing tempting enough for them to take them out for trading.

But now it was different.

This Golden Salmon Meat surpassed the current survivor level as a powerful piece of fish meat.

Enough to make them bring out everything they had to trade with Cao Xing!

Even survivors without enough materials started to leverage their networks to borrow these two materials everywhere.

Once they gathered enough, they came to trade with Cao Xing.

In less than a minute,

The 20 portions of Golden Salmon Meat that Cao Xing put on the shelf were immediately sold out.

Glancing at his reserves of these two materials,

[Constant Gold Ingot*244]

[Demon Pattern Stone*141]

…

“Great! Not just do I have enough materials to build the King Altar, but also enough to build the Mage Tower and Knight Hall, hahaha!”

Cao Xing was overjoyed.

Meanwhile,

He then continued to check the other items he had just obtained.

Next came a fishing rod.

It was pitch-black all over, with black snake scale-like patterns on it, emitting a peculiar aged wood scent.

He glanced at the attributes.

[Black Dragon Wood Fishing Pole (Golden)]

[Quality: Treasure]

[Durability: 477/500]

[Fishing Range: Treasure-grade Fish (Golden Salmon, Jade Perch, White Silk Foot Fish…)]

[Maximum Tension: 2,000 kg]

[Attached Effect ①: Power of the Black Dragon (Increases Power by 100 points when fishing)]

[Attached Effect ②: Breath of the Black Dragon (While fishing, can unleash the aura on the rod to intimidate underwater creatures, giving a 30% chance to incapacitate them)]

(Equipment Introduction: When skill is unfeasible, resort to brute force—Fishing Master: Toya Mann)

…

“Not bad, not bad, although it’s not as good as the Mad King’s Fishing Rod, this rod is quite powerful for a golden quality.”

“Moreover, it can also catch magical creatures like the Golden Salmon.”

“Next, I only need to get more Snow Demon Tongues or more advanced bait, then I can fish up more Silver Salmon and Golden Salmon!”

Cao Xing’s heart was full of anticipation.

Then, there were the two skill books he was most looking forward to.

[Extreme Ice Origin Skill Book (Golden): Frost Mage Exclusive Skill Book]

[Skill Effect: Condense Extreme Ice Power to apply a layer of Extreme Ice Origin on oneself or an allied unit for 120 seconds, increasing Armor by 100 and constantly releasing frost ice aura, reducing the move speed of enemy units within 5 meters by 30%.

If the same target remains within the Extreme Ice Origin range for more than 5 seconds, there is a high probability they will be frozen for 1 to 3 seconds. Cooling time: 5 minutes]

…

Seeing the [Extreme Ice Origin] attribute, Cao Xing’s pupils shrank suddenly!

“What a powerful skill!”

Obviously, once a layer of [Extreme Ice Origin] was applied,

It equated to having a Frozen Aura, constantly affecting the move speed of surrounding enemies, with additional control effects.

Just these two attributes were worthy of a golden quality skill book!

Moreover, with enhancement from [Eternal Power], this skill would undergo a qualitative transformation!

“Great!”

Suppressing his excitement, Cao Xing checked the attributes of the second golden skill book.

[Faith Thought Skill Book (Golden): Aurora Knight Exclusive Skill Book]

[Skill Effect: Condense the Power of Faith to increase the Spiritual Resistance of all allied units in the vicinity by 50%, and grants one immunity to spiritual control effect, lasting 150 seconds, cooling time 4 minutes.]

…

This was a skill targeting spiritual attacks.

It might not sound very effective, yet its importance was no less than the [Holy Shield] skill book.

Especially when dealing with demon-like creatures, this skill could have miraculous effects.

For example, Isabell’s [Confession Skill] would be ineffective against entities with a [Faith Thought] status.

“Not bad, not bad, although acquiring this skill book cost me 800g Golden Salmon Meat, its effects are quite formidable.”

Cao Xing was very satisfied.

Then, he took out the last blueprint.

[Transportation Cart Blueprint]

[Blueprint Introduction: A Transportation Vehicle for carrying ores or personnel can be constructed through the Mechanical Factory, requires Magic Energy Crystal to power it.]

[Armor: 200]

[Durability Value: 4000]

[Maximum Movement Speed: 60 kilometers/hour]

[Maximum Number of Passengers: 30~80 people]

[Manufacturing Requirements: Intermediate Mechanical Factory, Iron*1,500, Copper*500, Fine Iron*300, Electronic Components*20, Mithril*50, Intermediate Elemental Crystals*10]

…

Upon seeing the blueprint’s introduction, a smile appeared on the corner of Cao Xing’s mouth.

“Excellent, with the Transportation Vehicle, I can resolve the issue of moving the legion and lead the main force to further locations!”

“Not only that, but the Transportation Vehicle can also be used for resource gathering and ore transportation. The Mole Man Mine can now be exploited!”

Furthermore, Cao Xing remembered having an Orange Item: [Shining Throne], which could release a Shining Star every seven days to locate an area with precious resources for Cao Xing.

With the Transportation Vehicle, all these areas with precious resources could now be exploited.

Thinking of this, Cao Xing grew even more excited.

However, the Transportation Vehicle required an Intermediate Mechanical Factory to manufacture.

Cao Xing recalled having two other blueprints also requiring an Intermediate Mechanical Factory.

Yet, after searching the entire market, he couldn’t find the relevant blueprint.

Cao Xing pondered, “It seems I need to find a way to get an Intermediate Mechanical Factory blueprint.”

Thinking of this, he directly clicked to learn all three blueprints.

After reviewing all the gains,

Just when he was about to conclude this trade, a private chat message caught his attention.

The message sender was a survivor named Yu Luanyu.

Yu Luanyu: “Um… Hello, Cao Xing… I have two seeds of golden magic plants here, may I exchange them for your Golden Salmon Meat?”

…
