Chapter 27 - 27 27 Phantom Assassin Recruitment Scroll

Not only did Cao Xing hear the system prompt, but Liu Muxue beside him also heard it and asked hesitantly, “Axing, I seem to have gained experience points too.”

“But I didn’t help fight, did I?”

Cao Xing thought for a moment and quickly understood the reason.

Although Liu Muxue did not participate in the battle,

She applied the [Aurora Blessing] status to both Andrew and Assam, which added extra damage.

This meant that the system considered Liu Muxue as having participated in the battle.

Cao Xing also applied [Ice Armor Skill] and [Ice Healing Skill], which also counted him as a combat participant.

Including Yilena, who was guarding the territory, she also provided a buff to the Druid.

Ɲονǥο.сօ

A look of joy appeared on Cao Xing’s face; this feature was fantastic!

...

“Muxue, this is a good thing!”

“In this way, as long as we recruit strong followers, we can just apply statuses to them and not worry about the rest.”

“At that time, we can send all these followers out while upgrading from within the territory.”

What was more crucial was that this greatly increased their chances of getting the leaderboard rewards!

Liu Muxue listened and a slight look of joy appeared on her face.

Then she simply stayed by Cao Xing’s side.

The two of them watched the camp as a one-sided slaughter unfolded.

At this moment, Assam directly rushed into the center of the camp, facing the onslaught of seven or eight hunters alone.

There were also two archers beside them.

However, their arrows hit Assam’s armor, creating two extremely small damage numbers on it.

[-1]

[-1]

The hunter’s attack power was still okay, at least it could cause a bit of damage to Assam.

But the damage was so low.

It could be said to have broken the defense, yet not really.

The next second, a series of green +10s, +10s appeared above Assam’s head.

The hunters were completely dumbfounded.

How the hell was this supposed to be played?

They dealt less damage than the opponent’s health recovery, which was too shameless, wasn’t it?

I want to report!

Someone is cheating!

But Assam didn’t care about their thoughts.

With a loyalty of 95, he would put Cao Xing’s orders first.

And that was to kill all these hunters.

“Puff puff puff!”

The Frost Wolf Swordsmanship danced with roaring momentum.

Every swing of the sword would inevitably take the life of a hunter.

The Frost Wolf also carried him, continually leaping and changing positions within the camp.

The second-order Assam was simply invincible!

[Your territory member Assam has killed a hunter lv4, gaining 40 experience points.]

[You have gained: 20 experience points.]

…

And Andrew beside them was even more terrifying.

It directly transformed into a demolisher state, toppling tents with great force.

Hunters hiding inside were easily pulled out by Andrew and then slapped to death with one claw.

Under normal circumstances, Andrew exuded a sage-like calmness and wisdom.

But once in battle, it was like a berserk beast!

“Roar!!”

After a terrifying roar, Andrew pinned down a level six hunter scout and shattered its head.

Cao Xing and Liu Muxue kept seeing the ‘gaining experience points’ prompts.

Not long after, a white light appeared on Liu Muxue’s body.

She had leveled up.

Leveling from level 1 to 2 was simple, requiring only 100 experience points.

But from 2 to 3, it required 1,000 experience points.

Each level up beyond that required an additional 1,000 points.

And at that moment, from within the innermost tent of the camp, a dark figure suddenly rushed out.

It seemed to know the terror of Andrew and Assam and as soon as it ran out of the camp, it charged through the snow without any intent to fight.

Cao Xing glimpsed at its attributes.

[Hunter Captain lv10]

[Race: Human Clan]

[Attack Power: 172~184]

[Life Value: 1540]

[Skills: Cruel Cutting (deals twice 80% attack power damage to the enemy, adds level 1 bleeding effect),

Greased Feet (increases move speed by 30% during escape)]

…

“Oh no, that’s the captain from inside!”

Cao Xing shouted immediately, “Don’t let him run away!”

This guy, although just a level 10 ordinary monster and hadn’t advanced,

That ‘Greased Feet’ skill was really outrageous, an escape artist.

At that moment, Andrew suddenly roared.

“Roar!!”

He transformed from his humanoid form into a giant bear covered in white fur and charged like a cannonball.

Boom!

The explosion of speed in an instant even surpassed that of the polar bear.

It was the very skill of Andrew, [Giant Bear Form].

Thud!

Thud thud!

The ground trembled continuously.

Under the [Giant Bear Form], Andrew’s all attributes increased by 30%, along with Yilena’s [Snake-man Tribe Frenzy], which added another 20% to move speed.

Andrew easily caught up with the fleeing hunter captain.

Then, in its terrified gaze,

Andrew let out a mighty roar.

“Roar!!!”

The giant bear paw slammed down.

Splat!!

The hunter boss was directly crushed into a pile of mush.

The cold snow now had a bright flower constructed from blood and flesh.

This gruesome scene made Liu Muxue’s face turn a few shades paler.

Yet she bit her lip, forcing herself to accept it all.

Because she knew, such scenes would be very common in future battles.

Cao Xing heard a system prompt in his ear.

[Your territory member: Andrew has killed a hunter captain lv10 and gained 300 experience points.]

[You gained: 150 experience points.]

At this moment, a white light rose from Cao Xing’s body.

[Your level has increased, current level: 4.]

[This level-up has granted: Power +2, Agility +2, Spirit +4, Constitution +2]

Cao Xing felt overjoyed, “Leveled up again!”

A surge of energy welled up from within him.

His mind became clearer and his body more energetic.

“Wuhu, this feeling of leveling up is really nice!”

Soon, Assam also resolved the battle on his side.

All the hunters in the camp had been slaughtered by them.

The ground was littered with broken limbs and bodies.

The system prompt appeared.

[You have destroyed a hunter camp, territory reputation +50.]

[Warning!

Due to completing a high-difficulty raid, based on your strength assessment, you received an extra reward: Phantom Assassin Recruitment Scroll (Blue) *1]

“Oh, another blue recruitment scroll?”

Cao Xing’s eyes lit up with joy as he checked the scroll’s attributes.

[Phantom Assassin Recruitment Scroll (Blue): Can be used to summon a Phantom Assassin with a level 20 elite strength.]

“Wow!

A level 20 elite creature, even stronger than Andrew!”

Cao Xing’s eyes were filled with intense shock, then ecstasy!

Clearly, this recruitment scroll could boost his strength significantly again.

However, he didn’t summon it right away but instead led Liu Muxue towards the camp.

“Let’s clean up the battlefield first.”

The two then entered the camp.

The sight before them was one of chaos, with even the bonfires having been extinguished.

Cao Xing approached a hunter’s body, just about to reach out.

The system prompt appeared.

[Humanoid creature, cannot be decomposed.]

Cao Xing’s mouth twitched.

What did the system take him for?

He didn’t intend to decompose anything!

This was slander, slander!

Despite that, he still reached out and searched the hunters.

[Acquired Hunter’s Mask (White) *1, Acquired First-tier Soldier Training Book (White) *1, Acquired Coins *15]

“A mask?”

Cao Xing wondered, and then checked the attributes.
