Chapter 69: Chapter 68: New Expansion, Giant Dragon Resurgence (Seeking Subscription)_2

However, Liu Muxue had already secretly made up her mind to work together with Cao Xing to develop the territory well.

There was no need for excessive words of gratitude, as she quietly stored the shield into her backpack.

After all, she belonged entirely to Cao Xing now, what did a piece of golden equipment mean in comparison?

At that moment, Cao Xing and Liu Muxue suddenly felt a violent tremor beneath their feet.

Boom!

The tremor came so suddenly that the whole territory’s buildings shook slightly.

Liu Muxue instinctively grabbed Cao Xing’s shoulder.

The subjects were also so frightened that they stopped their work.

The group of Polar People scrambled in a panic, their expressions exaggerated as they shouted and screamed.

“Oh! God, what’s happening?”

“Is the earth moving?”

“No, the Earth Mother Goddess is hungry; she wants to devour the filthy Polar People!”

“Please, Mother Goddess above, forgive us!”

All these Polar People knelt on the ground, continuously kowtowing in prayer.

Having lived underground for years, earthquakes were the most terrifying natural disasters for them, often claiming many Polar People’s lives.

But fortunately, the tremors came quickly and dissipated just as fast.

However, Cao Xing and Liu Muxue saw shock in each other’s eyes.

Because the tremor was felt not only in their area, but the entire Gale Snow Plain and even the entire Western Continent!

The [World Channel] was already in chaos, with numerous survivors speaking frantically.

“Is it really an earthquake?”

Cao Xing was filled with doubt.

Before they could react.

A system prompt appeared.

[All survivors, please note! Time remaining until the end of the beginner protection period: 39 hours 17 minutes…]

[After the beginner protection period ends, the game content will undergo some changes.]

[The new expansion: Giant Dragon Resurgence is about to start.]

[The slumbering Ancient Giant Dragon: Zhuoma, is gradually awakening, and its overflowing Power of Giant Dragon is transforming into Ice Nests that are appearing worldwide.

Ice Nests will spawn numerous Ice Nest Beasts, Ice Nest Eye, Zhuoma Minions, and other monsters.

Over time, as the dragon’s power continues to recover, the monsters appearing within the Ice Nests will grow increasingly powerful.

Your goal is to protect each of your territories from the assaults of these Ice Nest Beasts and to destroy more Ice Nests.]

[Note! Ice Nests appear randomly; to help survivors adapt quickly, small Ice Nests will appear during the beginner protection period.]

…

As soon as the prompt ended, all survivors saw what seemed like a meteor shower falling from the sky.

The meteors crashed across the world, creating giant craters.

Boom! Boom!

Violent tremors continued to occur.

The world chat channel immediately fell into chaos.

Li Zheng: “What the hell is happening? The system says a giant dragon is awakening?”

Leonardo: “The new expansion is launching; it’s the system’s way of letting us adapt in advance.”

Muneta Kenichi: “A giant dragon? It seems this hero can finally become a dragon slayer!”

Muhammad: “You are wrong, this is Heavenly Punishment! It is our punishment, we should have died long ago, coming to this world is just to repay our sins, everyone will die, hahaha! Everyone will die!”

Wang Zhuang: “Upstairs, stop raving here.”

…

Even the chat channel in area 174 instantly flooded with comments.

Among them, a survivor named Jiang Na exclaimed: “Oh my god, a meteor fell near my territory! It turned into an Ice Nest, and many monsters covered in ice thorns crawled out from it!”

Other survivors in area 174 were stunned, “Damn… so these meteors are what the system called Ice Nests.”

“Hey Jiang Na, how are the strength of those monsters?”

This Jiang Na was silent for a moment and then spoke again: “Phew… It doesn’t seem too bad, they’re only around level four or five, I can handle them!”

Upon hearing this, other survivors also breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the system also indicated that it’s still early in the Giant Dragon Resurgence, with only a minor overflow of power, so the monsters appearing in the Ice Nests aren’t strong yet.

As the dragon gradually awakens, the level of the Ice Nest Monsters will also gradually increase.

Just then, Ji Xinyue also shouted in the chat channel: “An Ice Nest appeared outside my territory too, oh my god, so many monsters are crawling out!”

Le Hangyu: “I see it too, damn!”

Qiao Weichao: “Damn! This Ice Nest crushed my Polar People, damn it…”

Zhang Yuzhe: “Brothers, quickly return to your territories; the Ice Nests won’t hit our territories!”

Upon hearing the warning, survivors rushed back inside their territories.

The sudden change left everyone caught off guard.

…

Cao Xing took a quick look around, then closed the chat channel.

“It seems that Giant Dragon’s Ice Nests have appeared near the territories of many survivors.”

“But fortunately, this is an early system warm-up; the monster levels are not high, intended to help survivors adapt to the changes after the beginner protection period ends.”

Cao Xing breathed a sigh of relief.

The sudden tremor indeed had him flustered to some extent.

Liu Muxue, blinking her beautiful eyes, softly asked, “Axing… the system said the giant dragon is awakening, is a giant dragon very powerful?”

Cao Xing nodded: “Of course, didn’t you hear Hilton say the Northern Continent almost got destroyed because of the awakening of a giant dragon.”

“The Ancient Giant Dragon on our continent is estimated to be similar.”

“What? That terrifying…”

Liu Muxue looked worried.

Cao Xing smiled: “Don’t worry, according to the system prompt, it should still take some time for the giant dragon to awaken.”

“And besides, if the sky falls, there are taller ones to hold it up.”

“The natives of this world are much stronger than us; if the giant dragon does awaken, it’s they who would face it first.”

“If even they can’t withstand it, there’s nothing we can do either.”

Hearing this, some of the worry on Liu Muxue’s face dissipated.

Her eyes filled with admiration, she looked at the man.

He always seemed to have a way to solve various problems.

Just then, Cao Xing suddenly felt a gust of wind above his head.

He looked up and clearly saw a meteor streak across.

Then, it crashed near his territory.

“Boom!!!”

The violent tremor exceeded any previous ones!

The snow on the ground was shaken off, and the buildings in the territory shook violently.

Cao Xing was stunned, “Damn? Did it hit close to me?”

Before Cao Xing could check, the subject Cao Yi exclaimed outside.

“Lord! Something crashed near our territory!”

Cao Xing hurriedly walked over.

Including the Tree Spirit Clan dining in the cafeteria, they were also alarmed and came out.

Then, everyone saw, about eight hundred meters from the territory.

There appeared a completely snow-white nest, like an ice sculpture, with a powerful force continuously emanating from it.

“Roar! Roar!”

Beast-like roars echoed.

Cao Xing’s eyes shone with realization, “So this is the Ice Nest.”

Meanwhile, the Tree Spirit Clan was staring intently at the Ice Nest.

One member of the Tree Spirit Clan exclaimed: “Oh my god! That’s the power of the Ancient Giant Dragon!”

Hearing ‘Ancient Giant Dragon,’ all the Tree Spirit Clan members looked immensely terrified.

“Why? We’ve already come to the Western Continent, yet the giant dragon still won’t spare us?”

“The giant dragon destroyed our homeland; does it intend to destroy our last refuge too?”

“Woo… we are a cursed race destined to sink with the Pale Tree…”

At this moment, the Tree Spirit Clan was in utter despair.

Nif even collapsed to the ground.

Other subjects watched the pale-skinned people.

But they didn’t find the response of the Tree Spirit Clan exaggerated.

After all, these people had already experienced a dragon catastrophe before, with their homeland destroyed and their clansmen dying in droves.

This event left them with a profound psychological shadow…
