Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem

Chapter 469 - 216: Disassembling the Cannibal Flower, Nightmare Court Archer (5400)_3

Upon hearing these words, a strange look appeared in Cao Xing’s eyes.

Through Isabell’s narrative, he came to know the experiences of these members of the Nightmare Court.

Indeed, they were somewhat pitiful.

But this sounded as if they had been hurt by a scumbag and now no longer believed in other men, something of that sort…

Cao Xing didn’t bother to say much to them.

He directly said, “I do not interfere with your beliefs. I only ask you, are you willing to pledge your loyalty to me?”

Upon hearing this question,

the four archers exchanged glances, and a look of struggle appeared in their eyes.

Moments later, they all knelt on one knee and respectfully said, “Honorable Lord, we are willing to serve you…”

“Hope you will treat us well…”

Hearing these words, Cao Xing nodded slightly.

“Very good. From now on, you will behave obediently and follow my commands. I will ensure you won’t be sent to die, understood?”

“Understood, my Lord…”

The four archers responded once more.

It seemed they were not so resistant to pledging loyalty to Cao Xing.

It was just due to their personalities, not being fond of speaking much.

“Now tell me your names.”

After hearing Cao Xing’s command, they spoke slowly.

“Meng Ma, Meng Lita, Meng Luosi, Meng Na…”

They still cherished their words like gold, giving their names and then speaking no more.

Cao Xing didn’t ask further, but instead checked their attributes.

…

After looking through the attributes of these four Nightmare Court Archers,

Cao Xing nodded secretly.

They seemed quite good, balancing damage and control effects.

After pondering for a moment, Cao Xing directly said, “So, Meng Ma, Meng Na… Welcome to join us.”

“According to our territory’s tradition, newcomers are blessed, granting them great power.”

Even though these Nightmare Court Archers did not have high loyalty,

following Cao Xing’s habit, he usually would not apply various statuses to creatures with such low loyalty.

But now being in the [Witch Forest] high-level map,

these archers’ Life Value was not high.

To prevent being instantly killed when delving deeper into the forest to face powerful Monsters.

Under the puzzled gaze of these archers,

Cao Xing directly called Liu Muxue, Tong Chuchu, Blot, and Hilda to give them stats.

As powerful statuses poured into these archers’ bodies,

their constantly dreamlike eyes slowly opened!

Filled with intense surprise!

“This is… What a magical power…”

“By the gods! How was this achieved?”

The archer named Meng Ma was astonished.

Eliza stepped forward, full of pride, saying, “Hmph! Impressive, right?”

“This is the power of our Lord!”

“Before, only those who contributed to our territory could enjoy such a blessing.”

“You should be thankful for the Lord’s mercy!”

Upon hearing this, the four Nightmare Court Archers exchanged glances, knowing Eliza spoke the truth.

Such blessing, enough to surpass the Divine, how could it be easily granted to others under normal circumstances?

At this moment, they knelt on one knee.

“Thank you, merciful Lord; your power is so great and vast…”

[Due to your enhancing their strength, territory member Meng Ma’s loyalty has increased; current loyalty: 62]

[Due to your enhancing their strength, territory member Meng Lita’s loyalty has increased; current loyalty: 64]

[Due to your…]

Four system prompts appeared.

Cao Xing’s expression remained unchanged, but he rejoiced inwardly.

“As expected, the Eternal Power rides above all. Whatever godly beliefs will be dissipated by the Eternal Power.”

“Even dealing with people as difficult as Hilda and Isabell, I managed to raise their loyalty to eighty or ninety. How could these Dream Spirit Race members remain unswayed?”

Thinking of this, Cao Xing casually said, “Alright, go to the team now. From now on, you will move with Renice and Eliza.”

The four archers simultaneously looked at Cao Xing’s team, at the two women with bows and arrows.

Beside them, Eliza said, “Hmph! From now on, you will follow me. I will teach you some territory etiquette!”

“Let’s start with titles.”

“From now on, you will call Renice ‘Captain’ and call me ‘Vice-captain,’ understand?”

The four archers exchanged a glance, then said with some difficulty, “Yes, Vice… vice-captain…”

Hearing their title usage, Eliza laughed proudly.

Cao Xing’s lips also curled up with a smile.

With a lively girl like Eliza teaching these silent archers, it was a good thing.

At this moment, Cao Xing took out a bright red crystal from his backpack.

It was the [Advanced Power Heart] that exploded from killing that Cannibal Flower boss.

He handed it over to Andrew.

Andrew didn’t say much but quietly decided that this time he must succeed.

He directly crushed the Power Crystal, and pure red energy flowed into his body.

Everyone waited silently.

Three minutes later,

a powerful and ancient aura surged from Andrew.

Everyone looked over with anticipation directed at him.

In the next moment, a system prompt appeared…
