Chapter 4: Child, You Are Invincible!
Cao Xing thought to himself, "Just as I expected, besides me, no one has played this game before. Everyone is in a state of confusion and ignorance."
"If they don't take action and quickly adapt to this world, many people might die on the first night..."
Although it was currently the novice protection period and no monsters would attack the camp.
But the low temperature at night was no joke.
Just then, Cao Xing heard frantic knocking on the door outside.
Bang bang bang!
"Lord! Something happened!"
"Lord... save me!"
Hearing the cries for help, Cao Xing frowned, and a bad premonition immediately arose in his heart.
He quickly threw the small wooden shield to Liu Muxue, then took out a wooden staff himself and got into a fighting stance.
After pushing open the door of the Lord Cabin, he saw two Polar People huddled together, their eyes filled with fear.
Cao Xing asked, "What happened?"
Er Zhuang, who was nearby, quickly replied, "Lord! There's a snake!"
"There's a huge Snowfield Viper in that forest area. It bit Da Zhuang, and Da Zhuang is about to die!"
Cao Xing's gaze swept over. At this moment, Da Zhuang's face was purple, and his body was constantly trembling.
At the same time, purple numbers of -2, -2, were constantly appearing above Da Zhuang's head.
This was a sign of severe poisoning.
Seeing this scene, a look of worry also appeared in Liu Muxue's eyes.
Cao Xing looked at Da Zhuang's attributes.
【Polar People: Da Zhuang】
【Level: 1 0/100】
【Health: 52/140】
【Current Status: Poisoned (Level 1 Snake Venom)】
Seeing this poisoned status, Cao Xing felt relieved instead, "Don't worry, it's just Level 1 snake venom. Sister-in-law, just cast Purification."
Liu Muxue seemed a bit lost, but she reacted after a moment.
Then, Liu Muxue raised her right hand, and a ball of colorful aurora condensed in her palm.
"May the holy aurora bless you!"
Liu Muxue's clear and cold voice sounded.
As the words fell, the ball of aurora entered Da Zhuang's body.
At the same time, Da Zhuang only felt a holy power surge in, and the snake venom in his body melted away like ice and snow.
His complexion gradually improved.
Da Zhuang said gratefully, "Thank you, great and benevolent Lords!"
However, although Da Zhuang was cured of the snake venom, his face was still very weak.
His health had dropped to half, and he was already in an injured state.
Without a medical room, treating injuries was more troublesome.
Cao Xing looked at his skill bar.
Besides Ice Ball Technique, there was also an Ice Therapy skill.
Then, Cao Xing raised his staff, and waves of peculiar frost power gathered in his staff.
He waved his single hand, and the ball of frost power surged into Da Zhuang's body.
The next moment, green numbers of +3, +3 kept appearing above Da Zhuang's head.
Then, a system prompt appeared.
【Ice Therapy cast successful, talent Eternal Power has taken effect, this skill has become a permanent state...】
Hearing this prompt, Cao Xing was directly stunned.
"Holy crap! Healing skills work too?"
He recalled the description of this talent.
【Eternal Power】: Makes all friendly units within the Lord, when gaining a temporary buff state, permanently gain the buff state.
But healing skills were actually classified as a type of buff state, which was completely unexpected by Cao Xing.
At this moment, a look of ecstasy appeared directly in Cao Xing's eyes.
Because in other words, Da Zhuang currently had a buff that allowed him to regenerate health infinitely!
Looking at Da Zhuang's constantly recovering health, Cao Xing couldn't help but exclaim.
Child, you are invincible!
Of course, Cao Xing's current mental strength was not high, and he could only restore 3 health points.
Even if Da Zhuang could regenerate health infinitely, if he encountered an enemy that was too strong and could kill him with a single slap, he couldn't be considered truly invincible.
Before long, Da Zhuang's health was fully restored, and he became lively again.
At this moment, Da Zhuang said excitedly, "Lord, I feel a healing power within my body, it is constantly restoring my life!"
Cao Xing nodded.
"Thank you, Lord, your power is so great and vast!"
【Da Zhuang's loyalty to you has increased, current loyalty: 80.】
Cao Xing began to think about a question.
Could Ice Therapy allow Polar People to regenerate health infinitely, and could it also work on himself, or Liu Muxue?
Cao Xing thought for a moment, then cast an Ice Therapy on Liu Muxue.
The same system prompt appeared.
【Ice Therapy cast successful, talent Eternal Power has taken effect, this skill has become a permanent state...】
Cao Xing and Liu Muxue widened their eyes, and both saw the shock in the other's pupils.
Holy crap! This talent can actually work on human survivors too!
Cao Xing just wanted to say, that's awesome!
This way, his own survival ability would get a qualitative leap!
He couldn't wait to cast a green light on himself as well.
But just as he was about to raise his staff, he felt waves of dizziness coming from his brain and almost fainted.
Cao Xing shook his head, and quickly figured out the reason.
"Is it because my mental power is insufficient, and casting two Ice Therapy spells is the limit?"
The recovery of mental power requires rest or eating.
However, the top priority now was to expel or kill the venomous snake in that forest area.
Otherwise, the source of wood in the Lord would be cut off.
Currently, there were two beings in the team with infinite health regeneration, which should be enough to deal with ordinary wild monsters.
Cao Xing said directly, "Let's go, follow me to deal with that venomous snake."
The two Polar People raised their stone axes and shouted, "Following the Lord's footsteps!"
Then, he led Da Zhuang, Er Zhuang, and Liu Muxue out of the Lord Cabin together.
As for San Zhuang and Si Zhuang, they were currently working hard to transport stones into the Lord.
【Stone +1】
【Stone +1】
System prompts kept appearing.
Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction.
Before long, they stepped out of the area covered by the Campfire.
In an instant.
The temperature suddenly dropped by more than ten degrees!
The cold air suddenly struck, like invisible blades, constantly slicing across everyone's bodies.
Waves of stinging pain hit them.
Liu Muxue instantly tensed up, her body shivering from the cold.
Even Cao Xing felt waves of stiffness coming from his body.
The minus fifty degree weather was too terrifying. Without the physique of the Polar People and cold-resistant clothing, they would be frozen into popsicles in just a few minutes.
Fortunately, the forest area Cao Xing was going to was not far from the fire, only a little over a hundred meters away.
The group of four walked on the snow, leaving footprints.
Before long, they arrived at this small patch of woods. Dozens of white birch trees were sparsely planted here, their branches covered with ice and snow.
"Lord! That venomous snake is right there!"
Following the direction Da Zhuang pointed, Cao Xing indeed saw a Giant Snake about two meters long, with its entire body coiled on the branch of a large tree.
"Hiss! Hiss hiss!"
This venomous snake was completely white, flicking its scarlet tongue at the four people and making a threatening gesture.
The attributes of this venomous snake appeared before Cao Xing.
【Snowfield Viper: Level 2】
【Race: Beast】
【Health: 160/160】
【Attack Power: 8~10】
【Attributes: Strength 4, Agility 7, Spirit 5, Constitution 8】
【Skills: Ambush, Neurotoxin】
【Note: This is a venomous snake that has adapted to the polar environment and completed unknown evolution.】
...
A Level 2 beast creature, no wonder Da Zhuang and Er Zhuang combined couldn't beat it.
Even with Cao Xing, they might need to be careful to contend with it.
But now, things were different.
Because in his team, there were two beings with infinite health regeneration!
Of course, Liu Muxue didn't have much combat power at the moment.
Cao Xing brought her here just to let her adapt to the combat rhythm of this world.
Liu Muxue was a smart woman.
She understood Cao Xing's meaning and was also accepting everything in this world at the fastest speed.
"Da Zhuang, go!" Cao Xing ordered directly.
As the words fell, Da Zhuang had already rushed forward, holding the stone axe in his hand.
His loyalty of up to 80 points basically allowed him to follow orders strictly and not defy Cao Xing's commands.
"Hiss hiss!!!"
The Snowfield Viper's body instantly arched, then suddenly sprang out!
Whoosh!
Like a white shadow flashing past, it instantly bit Da Zhuang's shoulder.
The sharp venomous fangs pierced through Da Zhuang's flesh, even through the thick snow clothing.
【-6】
The next moment, purple numbers of -2, -2 reappeared above Da Zhuang's head.
Da Zhuang was poisoned again.
However, before long, green numbers of +3, +3 popped up.
A look of joy appeared on Da Zhuang's face.
"I have the blessing bestowed upon me by the Lord! You evil fellow, you can no longer harm me!"
After speaking, Da Zhuang directly stretched out his large hand and grabbed the Snowfield Viper's neck.
Then he chopped down with an axe.
