Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem

Chapter 1926: Chapter 645: Balancing Kindness and Might, Red Gold Essence

Cao Xing waved his hand, directly expelling them from the Territory.

The Pale Tree’s Blessing Effect vanished along with it.

These people instantly felt a powerful surge of Life Force flowing out of their bodies, as if they had suddenly aged more than ten years.

And on the faces of the other Territory Members, there wasn’t the slightest sympathy—on the contrary, they all felt deeply satisfied.

After all, no one wants to be breaking their back working while someone next to them is slacking off and reaping the benefits.

As for this action from the Lord, everyone couldn’t help but applaud and cheer.

That group who were expelled from the Territory, however, collapsed to the ground then and there, faces ashen like death...

After dealing with this batch of people, Cao Xing swept his gaze over the others, his tone softening a bit.

”Everyone who stayed has already passed the test.”

”You’ve proven your Loyalty and character. Now, I’ll grant you a miraculous Blessing.”

As he finished speaking, Cao Xing glanced at Liu Muxue beside him.

This woman understood instantly, lifting her Weapon to cast the Blessing.

”Buzz!”

A brilliant light descended, and all Territory Members’ Power instantly surged by a large margin, their bodies filled with roaring Strength!

Feeling this immense Power, everyone’s faces lit up with surprise and joy.

Their reverence and admiration for the young and powerful Lord before them rose yet another notch!

Cao Xing did not use the Nai Sha Goddess’s Blessing Ring, planning to wait for the other Territory Members to return and then Bless everyone together.

For now, this was just to let them get a taste of the benefits.

After finishing all this, Cao Xing continued, ”From today on, as long as you remain diligent and dutiful, the glory of the Territory will be with you.”

”Now, go back to your rooms and rest.”

Everyone responded in turn, then left the place in an orderly manner.

The hundred-plus people who had just actively requested to leave also shouldered their luggage and left the Territory.

As for the hundred-plus who were expelled by Cao Xing, they were escorted overnight by Liuzhuang leading a squad of soldiers, sent hundreds of kilometers away to the Black Gold Mine.

Cao Xing’s actions tonight not only failed to cause any resistance in the hearts of the other Territory Members, they actually made everyone’s Loyalty rise sharply.

At the same time, the population was reduced by more than two hundred, saving daily Food consumption—it could be said to kill two birds with one stone.

The night quickly passed by.

...

...

The next day, when the time reached six o’clock in the morning, the System Prompt appeared right on time.

[All Survivors, please note! You have successfully survived Day 10 of the Turbulent Period.]

[Yesterday, the number of Transmission Pillars activated by the Bloody Army was: 1. The remaining Bloody Army in the world has significantly decreased. Please keep up the effort and clear out all Bloody Soldiers.]

[Remaining number of Blood Transmission Pillars: 8]

[Today’s weather: the Gale Snow Plain is still accompanied by intermittent snowfall, with a minimum temperature of -65°C ~ -72°C.]

...

When the Prompt ended.

The chat channel once again erupted in a string of cheers.

”Awesome! Only the last eight Transmission Pillars left, we’re about to return to normal life!”

”Brothers, let’s push a bit harder today and try to wipe out all these disgusting Monsters in one go.”

”Push what harder? You talk like you actually dare charge a Blood Transmission Pillar. In the end we still have to rely on the group of Legendary Strongmen under big boss Cao Xing.”

”Haha, for real. So far, I’ve only seen the brothers from the Four Districts gather the Power of several million people and, on the back of their Strength, destroy a Blood Transmission Pillar. The other regions don’t have a single one.”

”I think if everyone really tries and gathers a Legion of two to three million people, it should be possible to give it a shot.”

”You mean give your Life, brother?”

...

From the opening of the Blood Data Pack to today, a full week has officially passed.

During this week, Survivors all over the world have been engaged in hard resistance and battle.

The number of online players has already dropped from 2 billion down to 1.8 billion.

In seven days, nearly 200 million people have fallen, which shows just how brutal this Data Pack is.

Luckily, because Cao Xing’s side activated the Data Pack in advance, the Watcher side failed to make sufficient preparations.

Coupled with his two consecutive actions, Slaying large numbers of Legends from the Watchers and the Bloody Army, he kept the Blood Chaos under the smallest possible scope.

Otherwise, the death toll would definitely have multiplied several times.

...

...

Seeing the Prompt, a smile also appeared on Cao Xing’s face.

”Not bad, only the last eight pillars left.”

”And of these eight Blood Transmission Pillars, six are concentrated within the borders of the Kunade Kingdom, with the other two in an unknown region.”

”As long as we keep up the same pace as before, the Blood Chaos will be completely over by the end of today.”

Beside him, Liu Muxue also showed a delighted smile.

She looked at Cao Xing, speaking earnestly, ”That’s great, Axing. The Bloody Army is finally about to be cleared out.”

”You won’t have to work yourself so hard afterward, and you won’t have to push yourself that much...”

”It’s really great...”

Hearing this, Cao Xing froze for a moment, just about to say that he hadn’t been pushing himself.

But Liu Muxue said seriously, ”Axing, I actually know—you’ve always carried a huge pressure in your heart.”

”But you never show it; instead, you keep thinking you can solve it all with your own Strength.”

”Starting two months ago, when you learned the Bloody Army was about to appear, you already changed a bit.”

Cao Xing froze again, puzzled. ”I... changed?”

”Yes.”

Liu Muxue nodded solemnly. ”You’ve become even more desperate for Power. To improve everyone and to improve yourself, you’ve tried every possible method.”

”You joined the Crystal Giant Dragon camp in the Battle of the Oracle, standing on the opposite side of the players.”
