Chapter 342 -177: Night Attack! Interrogating the Prisoners! _2

He glanced at the status of the two guys.

[Status: Bleeding, near death, broken bone…]

These two seemed to try to struggle, but Assam knocked them out with the flat of his sword.

Cao Xing nodded, “Good, now they can’t escape.”

Then, he took out two [Ancient Vines] from his backpack and looked at Assam.

“Tie these two up!”

Upon hearing Cao Xing’s order, Assam promptly used the Ancient Vines to bind the two Hunter Scouts tightly.

Then Cao Xing quickly ordered, “Sarah, follow the route of these two scouts and conduct a counter-reconnaissance!”

“Remember to erase all footprints when you return.”

Cao Xing needed to confirm what was happening.

How did these Hunters discover his territory, and had he been exposed?

Only then could he formulate a response.

Receiving Cao Xing’s command, Sarah hesitated not a moment and quickly followed the route of the two Hunter Scouts, disappearing into the snowy wilderness.

She understood she had to move fast.

Snow fell lightly from the sky, and soon the tracks would be covered.

Soon enough, Sarah vanished from Cao Xing’s sight.

Cao Xing and Assam then took the two near-death Hunter Scouts back to the territory.

Meanwhile, Andrew, Blom, Hilda, and others, awakened by the commotion of battle.

Even Little Elysa and Aili hurriedly emerged from the Lord’s Hut, eyes cautious as they scanned the surroundings.

The Combat Personnel maintained a heightened state of vigilance.

Seeing the two tightly bound Hunter Scouts on Frost Wolf’s back made everyone frown.

Cao Xing said, “No need to worry, I’ve already sent Sarah out for reconnaissance.”

“Assam, lock these two in another basement, then have Rab and the others interrogate them.”

“Also, tell Rab and them.”

“They may use extreme measures to get them to talk quickly.”

Cao Xing issued a series of swift orders.

“As you command, Lord!”

Assam dragged the two near-death Hunter Scouts away.

…

In the later part of the night, Cao Xing and the others remained vigilant.

Even Little Elysa and Aili refused sleep, determined to keep watch through the night.

Cao Xing said nothing, knowing that given their current constitution, one sleepless night would have little effect.

Time slipped by quietly…

Cao Xing waited patiently for Sarah’s return.

There were two or three instances of Ice Nests crashing down.

But as his focus was entirely on the Light Church, he had no interest in the Ice Nest Monsters.

Renice shot them down from a distance without hesitation.

Around two or three in the morning,

a figure silently climbed over the wall, appearing before Cao Xing.

It was Sarah.

Relief crossed Cao Xing’s face, and he hurried toward her.

Sarah knelt before Cao Xing on one knee and quickly reported.

“Lord, according to your instructions, I tracked the footprints of these Hunters for over ten kilometers until they disappeared near a Great Rift Valley.”

“Along the way, I found that they had stopped by several Chosen Lords’ territories, but they didn’t enter, as if searching for something.”

Cao Xing listened and quickly thought over the information Sarah provided.

These Hunters were searching for something.

It now seemed they were looking for him.

However, they were unclear of his location, observing each Survivor’s Territory.

Cao Xing finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This meant they hadn’t fully exposed themselves yet!

At least these two Hunter Scouts hadn’t sent information back, and the other Hunters didn’t know his location.

This gave Cao Xing much operational space.

Thinking of this, Cao Xing said, “Alright, everyone get some rest, leave two people on watch.”

Little Elysa was about to insist on keeping watch.

Cao Xing said sternly, “That too is an order.”

Hearing this, the group ceased arguing.

After all, in this territory, Cao Xing’s orders meant everything.

They gradually dispersed.

Leaving Hilda, Yilena, and a team of Ascalon Soldiers to keep watch.

Cao Xing and Liu Muxue returned to the Lord’s Hut together.

They managed to sleep for a few more hours.

Upon Cao Xing’s indication, Rab and the Wild Boar Warriors like Raphael shifted their focus, subjecting the two Hunter Scouts to severe interrogation!

Throughout the night, the basement echoed with the Hunters’ cries.

…

The next day…

A system prompt appeared.

[Survivors, please note, you have officially passed the fourth day, the Power of Giant Dragon is gradually recovering, monsters from Ice Nests are about to break through to the Second Order, please accelerate development.

[Weather forecast: The snowstorm has stopped today, suitable for outdoor activities, territory development, please note the snow accumulation on the ground…]

Upon seeing the prompt, both opened their eyes simultaneously.

Cao Xing pondered, “Are Ice Nest Monsters’ levels about to break through to Second Order?”

The transition from First-tier to Second Order was a watershed, doubling all attributes was no joke.

Cao Xing glanced, noticing that the survivors in the 174th district ranged from level 7 to 11, with only a small fraction having reached Second Order.

If those low-level survivors failed to pick up the pace, they might struggle to cope.

However, with the [Giant Dragon Store], they could exchange for Basic Power Hearts at any time, making breakthroughs relatively easier.
