Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem

"Hopefully, this Lord Cao Xing can withstand this snow disaster..."

Next, the entire caravan began to take action with all their might.

They started to shovel away the accumulated snow, while some pushed the carts from behind.

It could be said that after traveling a certain distance, they had to stop for a while.

After nearly an hour of arduous progress, they were finally near the vicinity of Cao Xing's territory.

At this moment, Hilton felt a bit anxious in his heart.

"Almost there, we're almost at Lord Cao Xing's territory!"

"Let's hope his territory can hold on."

As they approached, everyone could see the towering city walls and the various densely built Elemental Arrow Towers and Watchtowers.

At this moment, a bewildered expression appeared in the eyes of the entire Black Lion caravan.

"By the gods above... What is going on here?"

"How did Lord Cao Xing's territory become like this?"

"Could we have gone the wrong way?"

A multitude of questions sprang up in Hilton's mind.

Although he was quite sure that his location was correct.

However, these unfamiliar structures before him still made Hilton doubt himself.

It wasn't just Hilton; the Black Lion Commerce guards were also filled with strong shock in their eyes.

That Char Guard Captain said, "Don't tell me... this is the territory of that Otherworldly Lord!"

"I swear by Khan's name, this can't be true!"

"Exactly, how long has it been since we last left?"

"How could this Otherworldly Lord have built such a well-developed and vast territory in just ten days?"

Hilton's face, full of fat, also showed a look of uncertainty.

He said slowly, "Whether it is or not, let's go and take a look first."

With anxious gazes, everyone slowly approached this territory.

...

...

Meanwhile.

Inside the hot spring house in the territory.

Two figures snuggled together, soaking in the hot spring.

At this moment, Yilena had reverted to her Snake-man Tribe form.

Her long snake tail swayed on the water's surface.

Since Cao Xing planned to take people to the Witch Forest later tonight, he had nothing much to do today.

Just then, a system prompt appeared.

[Black Lion Commerce: Hilton requests to visit your territory, do you agree?]

...

Seeing the system prompt, Cao Xing first looked dazed.

Then a look of delight appeared on his face!

"Haha! That old fellow Hilton has finally come!"

Cao Xing had been waiting for this day for a long time.

After all, a large amount of resources, quite valuable, were still prepared in his Storage Box.

It was a pity that these resources were just sitting there without being converted into strength.

Now, a caravan finally passed near his territory again.

He wrapped his arm around Yilena's slender waist and planted a kiss on her beautiful face.

"Yilena, I have some matters to attend to."

"You keep soaking."

The beauty in front of him nodded slightly, with affectionate eyebrows and eyes, and said, "Alright, dear Lord."

"You may go..."

Cao Xing quickly climbed out of the hot spring.

Then he dried his body and changed into clean underclothes.

After putting on his equipment again, Cao Xing directly 'accepted' Hilton's visitation request.

After exiting the hot spring house, he quickly walked toward the gate of the territory.

From afar, he saw a group of tall cat-faced beings, surrounding a line of carts, approaching the territory slowly.

This group, naturally, belonged to the familiar Char Clan.

From the marks on those carts, Cao Xing immediately recognized them as the Black Lion Commerce.

At the same time, he saw at the front of the team a short, stout person wrapped in thick cotton clothes, a stout merchant.

Recognizing the familiar figure.

Cao Xing said joyfully, "Haha, it sure is that old fellow Hilton!"

He quickly opened the city gate and came out into the snowy ground outside.

For the safety of the Lord, Assam, Blom, and two centaurs followed behind him.

As the groups met, their eyes showed expressions of excitement.

Cao Xing smiled and said, "Lord Hilton, we meet again."

Hilton, also excited, said, "Indeed, we meet again!"

"At first, I couldn't even believe that this was really your territory, almost thought we took a wrong turn!"

"Lord Cao Xing, what exactly happened in your territory since we left?"

"How did your territory suddenly undergo such an earth-shattering change?"

Hilton's voice grew louder and louder, and everyone could hear the astonishment in his tone.

Cao Xing naturally understood his current mood.

After all, who could have imagined?

Just over ten days ago, this territory had only a few solitary buildings.

Now it seemed to have the prototype of a war fortress!

Cao Xing chuckled lightly and said, "Lord Hilton, it's a long story."

"You could understand it as a unique ability of us Chosen Lords."

Hilton's eyes showed an enlightened expression upon hearing this.

"Oh, I see, you Chosen Lords certainly possess some miraculous powers."

Hilton remarked with emotion, "To be honest, Lord Cao Xing, we've traveled through most parts of the Gale Snow Plain during this time, and have seen the territories of many Chosen Lords."

"But none of their territories matches the scale of your territory!"

"This really took us by surprise."

Cao Xing chuckled and then looked toward the convoy behind Hilton.

At this moment, those guards looked somewhat disheveled, with their armor stained with mud.

The carts had also endured a lot of damage, with several wheels already flattened.

Cao Xing said, "Lord Hilton, judging by your appearance, did you encounter some trouble?"
