Chapter 2032: Chapter 679: Plundering the Mole Man Granary and Forging Fang Short Spears
The old man Cao Yi and the others, including Yorun, looked at Cao Xing with eyes full of admiration.
If it weren’t for his preparations made so many days in advance and the series of policies he set up,
the territory’s food would have been depleted days ago.
At that time, it might trigger a series of serious consequences.
Hearing this, Cao Xing was not particularly happy; instead, he frowned slightly.
"Can we only hold on for six days?"
Currently, we don’t know how many more days the storm will last...
If it lasts any longer, not only Cao Xing’s territory will face a crisis, but the resource system of most other lords will also completely collapse.
"However... I still have one last option."
"That is to use the teleportation array to go to the Eternal Frost Main City and ask the Ice Crystal King for a bit of help."
Given Cao Xing’s relationship with the Ice Crystal King and his contributions, the Old King will likely spare no effort to assist.
However, as mentioned before, this recent Blood Chaos has just ended, and several major kingdoms nearby suffered significant damage and losses.
It’s estimated that the Ice Crystal King can only barely maintain.
Shaking his head, Cao Xing withdrew from his thoughts.
Looking at the people in the hall, he waved and said, "I understand. You may go back now."
"Yes, Lord."
The crowd replied in unison, and then they all retreated.
In the hall, only Cao Xing and Liu Muxue remained.
Cao Xing continued to lean on the Shining Throne, with his eyes closed, seemingly contemplating something.
Liu Muxue stood behind him, gently massaging his shoulders.
"Don’t worry too much, Axing," Liu Muxue said softly, with a comforting tone.
After hearing this, Cao Xing replied with a light laugh, "Relax, I’m really not too worried; there are still plenty of solutions."
"It’s just that this storm came too suddenly, and we weren’t given time to prepare."
"Otherwise, with the strength of our territory, this problem wouldn’t have occurred at all."
Liu Muxue gently nodded, fully trusting the man’s words.
At that moment, the communication device beside Cao Xing’s ears emitted a ’zzzz’ electrical sound.
Then, a familiar seductive female voice sounded.
"Lord, I am Yilena."
Cao Xing replied, "I hear you, go ahead."
Yilena’s voice came through the ear once more, "Today, my sister and I were out looking for food, and on the road, we discovered a Mole Man cave."
"Guess what we found inside?" She said with a touch of excitement in her voice.
"Oh? What is it?" Cao Xing’s interest was piqued.
Yilena’s voice carried a tone of joy: "My sister and I discovered a group of frozen Mole Men in the cave."
"Not only that, but in the depths of the cave, there is a granary left by the Mole Men."
"Inside, there are piles of corn and grains, at least several tens of thousands of kilograms!"
The more Yilena spoke, the more excited she became, her voice unable to conceal her elation.
After hearing this, Cao Xing’s face also showed a bit of an excited smile.
Although the exact quantity is uncertain, several tens of thousands of kilograms of food...
But calculating the current daily consumption of the territory at 15,000 kilograms, it could sustain them for a few more days!
Counting the food they have now, they can hold on for ten more days without an issue.
"Alright, give me the coordinates," Cao Xing decisively said.
"Yes!"
Yilena quickly reported a set of coordinates.
Cao Xing glanced at the small map and realized the coordinates were approximately four hundred kilometers from the territory.
Relatively speaking, that’s not too far.
"Got it, wait there with Lana; I’ll come over now."
"As you command, Lord."
After ending the communication, Cao Xing turned and said, "Muxue, Yilena has made a discovery; I’m heading out."
"Mmhm, go ahead, Axing, be careful on the road." Liu Muxue’s face still held a gentle smile.
Cao Xing nodded, stood up from the throne, and then walked straight out of the Lord Castle.
"Crash—!"
As soon as he pushed open the Lord Castle’s door, a frenzied blizzard rushed in, carrying a bone-chilling cold that made it hard to keep eyes open.
Cao Xing’s magic robe fluttered in the gale.
But his figure stood sturdy as a rock, unaffected in the slightest.
The Wind Wings on Cao Xing’s back gently flapped and lifted him steadily into the air.
At this moment, the snowstorm still raged, enveloping the world in desolation.
But thankfully, Cao Xing did not have to worry about the direction; he just needed to follow the map’s coordinates and proceed straight.
"Whizz—!"
A powerful silhouette surged through the snowstorm, moving at an astonishing speed.
In the blink of an eye, he had covered over ten kilometers.
"Huff huff—"
In a few minutes, Cao Xing arrived near the coordinates.
This was at the foot of a mountain, the terrain similar to the Mole Man mine they had encountered before.
Cao Xing surveyed the area, searching.
Soon, he saw two winding figures beside the snowfield below.
One was white, the other cyan.
They both had snake-like bodies, their tails drawing graceful curves in the snow.
Their upper bodies were humanoid, alluring and slender.
Along with their two beautiful faces, they exuded an enchanting presence!
If ordinary hunters or villagers saw these Snake-man Tribe sisters in such heavy snow, they’d probably be terrified and flee immediately.
But for Cao Xing, Yilena was one of his most loyal subordinates.
Yilena also noticed his figure and waved her Trident, calling out.
"Lord, over here, over here..."
Cao Xing promptly adjusted his direction and swiftly descended to the area where the two women stood.
