For a moment, neither of them accepted it.
Harold said awkwardly, "This... it’s really not necessary, Lord. My wife is in good health and doesn’t need supplements."
"These eggs look very precious. You should keep them for yourself."
Putana, standing beside him, also nodded in agreement.
Cao Xing understood their thoughts and then smiled.
"Don’t worry, I caught a lot of chickens yesterday. We can produce quite a few of these eggs in our territory every day from now on."
The couple exchanged a glance and no longer declined, taking them gratefully.
However, their eyes showed a look of gratitude.
Both of them bowed deeply and respectfully, "Thank you, my Lord, for your care. You have always taken care of us!"
"We will always remember your kindness!"
[Because you showed compassion to your subordinates, Territory Member: Harold Iceberg Loyalty has increased, Current Loyalty: 100]
(Loyalty has reached maximum value, they will now execute your orders unconditionally)
[Because you showed compassion to your subordinates, Territory Member: Putana Loyalty has increased, Current Loyalty: 95]
Seeing the system prompt, Cao Xing remained silent but felt a touch of happiness inside.
He waved his hand, "It’s nothing, Harold."
"Now, let’s talk about business."
Harold immediately became serious.
Cao Xing continued, "I want to create a pair of glove-type weapons. Do you have any blueprints that could be used for this?"
The gloves are naturally prepared for Victoria. Last time out, she had already shown her strong combat power and team support ability.
Such a powerful subject, of course, should be well cultivated.
Hearing this question, Harold’s eyes showed thoughtful consideration.
"Warriors who use gloves in combat are even rarer than those who use tridents."
"Moreover, compared to cold weapons, crafting powerful gloves requires the use of beast leather, with special craftsmanship involved, incorporating a small amount of mithril."
"Then sew it all together to create a complete pair of gloves."
"If you have some powerful beast fur, my Lord, I can try to make it."
Cao Xing nodded in realization.
Powerful beast fur, huh?
Come to think of it, he really didn’t have such materials on hand.
So, Cao Xing nodded, "Alright, I understand. I’ll come to you again once I get the fur."
After bidding farewell to the couple, Cao Xing left the Blacksmith Shop.
Then, he headed straight to the Sewing Shop, taking out all the fabrics he had scavenged from that camp.
The two mature and charming women looked at the suddenly appearing rolls of fabric, their beautiful eyes filled with surprise.
"Wow, so much fabric!"
Xia Yanni exclaimed, "So much silk and gauze fabric, it must be very valuable. My Lord is truly capable..."
Elena, smiling softly beside her, added, "Indeed, our Lord is just that capable."
"Otherwise, we wouldn’t be pleading time and again~"
Elena was as bold as ever.
Her tone was teasing to the extreme.
Xia Yanni had a more traditional mindset.
Even though she was quite familiar with Cao Xing, she was still a bit shy, reluctant to engage with Elena’s banter.
Cao Xing said, "Elena, Yanni, please take care of these fabrics and furs." ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel_fіre.net
"Make clothes out of all of it. For the gauze fabric, make a few dresses."
This batch of fabric, even if sold as raw materials to merchants, could fetch a considerable sum.
However, turning them into finished garments would be even more valuable.
Cao Xing was currently short of money, food, and supplies—almost everything, really.
So he needed to maximize the benefits.
The two mature women exchanged a glance.
Elena, with a coquettish smile, softly said, "No problem, my Lord. Leave it to us, we’ll have it completed in two days~"
"Now, we need to get to work; you, my Lord, should also go and take care of your tasks."
These two women were sensible.
They knew when to cling to Cao Xing and when not to, very tactful.
Cao Xing also smiled and gave each of them a kiss on the cheek before leaving the Sewing Shop.
With that completed, the morning had already passed.
Cao Xing, of course, had more to do.
"According to the information revealed by those survivors in the chat channel yesterday, the King’s army will officially attack Dorun Lake City this afternoon."
"I have a feeling the Light Church isn’t that simple."
"It’s a good opportunity to observe their strength."
As for how to observe, it’s quite simple.
The current World Forum has many live-stream posts.
They are all initiated by survivors who have gathered near Dorun Lake City.
This battle has received widespread attention from survivors worldwide.
So every live stream had at least a million concurrent viewers.
Cao Xing returned to the Lord’s Hut, then embraced Liu Muxue to watch the live stream together.
Near Dorun Lake City at this time.
More than twenty thousand Kingdom soldiers, along with over two thousand knights, had all assembled.
And beside them, a large crowd of rangers, mercenaries, and survivors along with their followers had gathered.
The numbers amounted to over ten thousand people.
It was a considerable force.
At this moment, the Kingdom Army automatically parted to form a path.
A knight, riding a black lion and donned in war armor, swiftly traversed through the army, reaching the central position.
Then stopped in front of a black chariot.
