Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem Chapter 148 114: Return! The Prototype of the War Fortress (

If it were their previous lord, they might have faced the questioning of the subjects at this mont, leading to a decrease in loyalty.

Yet, this group, clearly from different regions and races, believed so steadfastly in a human.

Mage Aili looked bewildered, "I seem to have misunderstood... I thought this new lord used iron-fisted thods to force his subordinates into submission through power..."

"Why does it seem now that he is not as brutal as I imagined, but rather, the subjects love him?"

Beside her, Hiluveya was also surprised.

When they were forcibly brought here by Cao Xing, they had prepared themselves for daily exploitation and even humiliation, as such lords were not uncommon.

Yet, what lay before them changed their impression of Cao Xing.

Not knowing the thoughts of these newcors, Cao Xing looked at his subjects and said, "Thank you all for your trust."

"However, with our current power, though it's sufficient to deal with many threats,"

"I want to ensure there is no room for error."

"So to prepare for any crisis we might face tomorrow, we need to work overti tonight."

"Our primary task is to upgrade my Lord's Hut to level 3, then build more Elental Arrow Towers, residences, and a cowshed."

Cao Xing added, "Tomorrow, I permit you a day off!"

Upon hearing this, Dazhuang excitedly said, "Lord, we don't need rest, working an extra night is no problem for us Polar People!"

Subject Cao Yi also chid in, "That's right, if we rest, there won't be anyone to do tomorrow's work."

The Tree Spirit Clan clenched their fists with excitent, "We are willing to dedicate all our power to the territory's developnt!"

All the subjects were brimming with enthusiasm.

Among them, Liu Muxue, who had been quietly observing from behind, wore a look of comfort in her eyes.

Seeing Cao Xing admired by the subjects, she felt a sense of pride herself.

The Polar person Sanhua said, "Lord, I can't wait to start working, please assign us tasks!"

However, Cao Xing smiled, "If I say rest, then you rest. Balancing work and rest is the most important."

"As for tomorrow's work, new mbers will replace you."

Hearing the firmness in Cao Xing's tone, all the subjects remained silent.

Then, Cao Xing continued to give orders, "Now then, Cao Yi, continue to build the cowshed, install heating pipes, and build new residences."

"Dazhuang, make haste to upgrade my Lord's Hut to level 3."

"Tree Spirit Clan, go construct more Elental Arrow Towers."

"Dahua, lead Erhua and Sanhua to prepare dinner for our new mbers."

Cao Xing swiftly issued various instructions.

At this mont, Cao Xing's subjects all raised their voices in unison.

"Understood! Lord, we guarantee to complete the task!"

Each one, full of enthusiasm, picked up tools and jogged off to work.

Cao Xing glanced at the mage apprentices and Imperial soldiers behind him and then said, "Assam."

"Lord, I am here."

"Take our new mbers to familiarize themselves with the territory, then assign them lodgings."

"Oh, and arrange four people per room, with two won per room."

Currently, his territory was taking shape, with as many as twenty-four interdiate residences.

An interdiate residence occupied roughly eighty square ters, with two floors, allowing twelve subjects to rest inside.

But now, since Cao Xing's territory was vast, with plenty of undeveloped space, there was no need to squeeze the living environnt for the subjects.

Cao Xing always arranged for six Polar People per room.

As for these combat personnel, like Assam and Sarah, they received special treatnt: so had two people per room, while others had a room to themselves.

Assam nodded and then looked at the group of newcors, "Follow ."

The newly joined Imperial soldiers and Aili straightened their expressions and followed Assam away.

At this ti, twenty-four Polar People remained on the spot.

Because Cao Xing's current population was insufficient, there was no recruitnt order for them.

For the mont, they had nothing to do and could only look at each other, wide-eyed.

After witnessing Cao Xing's speech and the enthusiasm of the subjects, a few Polar People exchanged glances.

They could all sense the promising future of this territory.

A Polar person nad Du An stepped forward respectfully, "Lord, please assign us work as well."

"We also wish to contribute to this prosperous territory!"

Cao Xing pondered for a mont and then glanced at his population.

[Current population: 90/100]

Given his current population cap, he could recruit ten more Polar People.

Thus, Cao Xing nodded and said, "I can let part of you join the territory first, you can volunteer."

Du An's face brightened, and other Polar People eagerly signed up.

They all wanted to prove themselves to this new lord.

Then, Cao Xing randomly selected ten people and issued a recruitnt order to them.

[Recruitnt successful. Polar People: Du An, Han'er, Colis, Raj... have joined your territory, territory population 10]

At this mont, Cao Xing's population was completely full.

Cao Xing said, "Now then, Du An, take five people and build six toilets, rembering to mark male and female."

"Then, another four people go to make five sleds."

"The rest, wait in the residences first."

All personnel dispersed, beginning to busy themselves according to Cao Xing's instructions.
