Chapter 242 -144: The First Night of the Formal Period, Survival Difficulty Increases_3

That night, many Survivor Lords were startled awake in the middle of the night.

When they braved the cold winter night and stepped out of the Lord’s Hut, they suddenly saw dozens of Ice Nest Monsters charging towards their territories.

Instantly, a look of terror appeared in the eyes of those Survivor Lords.

“Alert! Alert!”

“Ice Nest Monsters are attacking, quickly call out all combat personnel!”

“Damn it!”

Bang! Bang bang!

Those Ice Nest Monsters frantically slammed into the constructions within the territories.

Battle broke out instantly.

This was the first night after the end of the novice protection period.

The survivors hadn’t yet adapted to the cruel pace of this world.

Even at night, they couldn’t sleep soundly and had to leave people on guard.

The assault of the Ice Nest Monsters was as fierce as ever.

Some survivors, with the aid of their subjects, barely resisted this wave of attacks.

But some Survivor Territories were devoured by Ice Nest Monsters in the dead of night.

The usually quieter chat channel at night was flooded with information.

Wang Shuo: “Damn! These doggone Ice Nest Monsters wouldn’t give it a rest even in the middle of the night, damn it, I nearly got swallowed in my sleep.”

Bai Mengxiu: “Is there anyone near coordinates 8313, 24521, 52311? There are two Ice Nests outside my territory, a lot of monsters have appeared, I’m barely holding on, who can come and rescue me?”

Cai You: “What a damn world! Daytime is already hard enough, and at night it still doesn’t let up, how am I supposed to gather resources tomorrow?”

The chat channel was filled with complaints.

Not just the chat channel in area 174 where Cao Xing was located, the World Channel was also flooded with various messages.

Lester Grace: “Fuck! I was outside taking a piss, just whipped it out, and an Ice Nest crashed right in front of me, the good news is I blocked the Ice Nest Monster’s attack, the bad news is I can’t feel down there anymore!”

Charma Mia: “What kind of damn world is this? We’re here to suffer, the Ice Nest Monsters have broken through my territory, I’m about to die, and I don’t even know if I can reincarnate as a Brahmin in this world after I die…”

Nagase Ichimatsu: “Yoshi! The monsters in one Ice Nest are enough for me to level up to 8, and with two more, I can directly level up to 10. My undead subordinates are truly amazing!”

Gao Zhiying: “Brothers, hold on, these Ice Nests are both a danger and an opportunity, they can bring us a large amount of experience value. Everyone reach level 10 soon, breaking through to the Second Order will be easy then!”

Wang Teng: “Hahaha! Damn Ice Nest Monsters, all come at me! I’m already at level 9, one more level and I can directly break through to the Second Order, these Ice Nest Monsters will no longer be able to do anything to me!”

…

In the face of crisis, everyone had different reactions.

Some saw it as an opportunity, while others were panic-stricken.

But regardless, they had to adapt, seizing every moment for development.

And all this had nothing to do with Cao Xing.

Their territory had already built high walls, arrow towers, and had powerful subordinates on guard 24 hours a day.

The two of them slept relatively soundly in the latter half of the night.

The next day…

As soon as Cao Xing opened his eyes, a system prompt appeared.

[Attention all survivors: You have survived the first day of the official period.]

[The frequency and monster level of Ice Nests will gradually increase.]

[When killing elite-level or above Ice Nest Monsters, there is a small chance of dropping special items: Ice Dragon Horn.]

[Weather forecast: Today in the Gale Snow Plain area, a cold wind will arrive, with the lowest temperature reaching -60°C.]

…

Seeing the system prompt, Cao Xing wondered, “What is an Ice Dragon Horn anyway?”

At this moment, Liu Muxue also glanced at the chat channel, a look of concern appeared in her eyes as she said, “Axing, it seems like a lot of people died again last night…”

Cao Xing took a look.

[Currently online in area 174: 30412/40173]

A large number died during the seven-day novice protection period, and another batch on the first day of the official period.

Now the population in their area was nearly falling below thirty thousand.

The situation in other areas was probably similar, maybe even worse.

Cao Xing nodded, “Yes, it’s something that can’t be helped, after all, there’s no territory protection anymore.”

“In addition, the level of the Ice Nest Monsters is still continuously increasing, other survivors can only seize every moment for development to survive under the threat of Ice Nests.”

Hearing this, Liu Muxue also clenched her fists.

Of course, Cao Xing’s time wasn’t as tight because he had already progressed far ahead of the other survivors.

A moment later, he said, “Get up, Muxue.”

“Mm.” Liu Muxue responded softly.

After a brief freshening up, the two of them came outside the Lord’s Hut.

Dozens of Polar People, subject Cao Yi, and also the Tree Spirit Clan were waiting respectfully.

Upon seeing Cao Xing, everyone saluted.

“Esteemed Lord, may you be well.”

“Beautiful Lord’s Wife, may your beauty remain forever.”

Cao Xing nodded and then looked at the two Centaurs beside him.

“Kanter, Kandar, did an Ice Nest crash down last night?”

The Centaurs trotted over with the sound of ‘clip-clop’.

They nodded simultaneously, “Esteemed Lord, as you saw, four Ice Nests did crash near our territory last night.”

“We dragged those newcomers from their beds and, together with the formidable Lady Sarah, killed all the Ice Nest Monsters outside!”

The two Centaurs wore expressions of pride.

And Aili and Hiluviya, along with several Imperial Soldiers, looked a little resentful.

They were sleeping well in the middle of the night, only to be startled awake by a tremor.

Before they could react, Kanter’s booming voice started shouting outside the door.

They had no choice but to quickly get up from their beds and follow Kanter and the others to battle through the night.

Kanter walked over and produced a pile of Ice Dragon Marks and other materials, presenting them with both hands.

“Lord, this is what we harvested yesterday, please take a look.”

Cao Xing nodded and then stored all these materials in his backpack.

[Acquired: Ice Glacier Fragment*243]

[Acquired: Ice Dragon Mark*497]

[Acquired: Small Chaos Book*5]

[Acquired: Small Spiritual Book*3]

[Acquired: Ice Crystal Stone (Green)*32]

Cao Xing nodded in satisfaction, “Well done, Kandar, Kanter, you’ve worked hard.”
