Cao Xing thought to himself, Just as I expected. Apart from me, nobody has played this game before. Everyone is completely clueless.

If they don't take action soon and hurry to adapt to this world, a lot of people might die on the first night...

Although they were currently in the beginner protection period, no monsters would attack the camp.

But the low temperatures at night were no joke.

Just then, Cao Xing heard frantic knocking at the door.

Bang, bang, bang!

"Lord! Something's happened!"

"Lord... help me!"

Hearing the cries for help, Cao Xing furrowed his brows, immediately sensing that something was wrong.

He hurriedly tossed the small wooden shield to Liu Muxue, then took out a Wooden Staff and prepared for battle.

When he opened the door of the Lord's Hut, he saw two Polar Folk huddled together, terror in their eyes.

Cao Xing asked, "What happened?"

Erzhuang hurriedly replied, "Lord! There's a snake!"

"There's a huge Snowfield Viper in that patch of woods. It bit Dazhuang, and he's almost done for!"

Cao Xing looked over. Dazhuang's face had turned purple, and his whole body was trembling nonstop.

At the same time, purple numbers reading -2, -2 kept appearing above Dazhuang's head.

It was a sign that the poison had become severe.

Seeing this, worry appeared in Liu Muxue's eyes as well.

Cao Xing looked at Dazhuang's stats.

[Polar Folk: Dazhuang] [Level: 1 0/100] [Health: 52/140] [Current Status: Poisoned (Level 1 Snake Venom)]

Seeing the poisoned status, Cao Xing actually relaxed. "Don't worry. It's only Level 1 Snake Venom. Sister-in-law, just cast Purification Spell."

Liu Muxue seemed a little confused, but a moment later, she understood.

Then Liu Muxue raised her right hand, and a ball of five-colored aurora gathered in her palm.

"May the Holy Aurora bless you!"

Liu Muxue's cool voice rang out.

As soon as she finished speaking, the aurora entered Dazhuang's body.

At the same time, Dazhuang felt a sacred power flow into him, and the Snake Venom inside him melted away like snow and ice.

His complexion gradually improved.

Dazhuang said gratefully, "Thank you, great and benevolent lords!"

However, although Dazhuang had been cured of the Snake Venom, he still looked very weak.

His health had dropped to half, leaving him in an injured state.

Without a Medical Room, treating injuries was quite troublesome.

Cao Xing looked at his skill bar.

Besides [Ice Orb Spell], he also had the [Ice Healing] skill.

Then Cao Xing raised his staff, and waves of strange frost power gathered within it.

He waved one hand, sending that frost power into Dazhuang's body.

The next moment, green numbers reading +3, +3 kept appearing above Dazhuang's head.

Then a system notification appeared.

[Ice Healing cast successfully. Talent [Eternal Power] has taken effect. This skill has become permanent...]

Hearing the notification, Cao Xing's jaw dropped in shock.

"Holy crap! Healing spells work too?"

He recalled the description of the talent.

[Eternal Power]: All allied units within the territory permanently retain any temporary buff they receive.

But he had never expected healing spells to count as a type of buff as well.

At that moment, delight appeared in Cao Xing's eyes.

Because, in other words, Dazhuang now had a buff that let him recover health endlessly!

Watching Dazhuang's health keep recovering, Cao Xing couldn't help exclaiming,

Kid, you're invincible!

Of course, Cao Xing's mental strength was low for now, so he could only restore 3 health points.

Even if Dazhuang could recover health endlessly, an enemy that was too strong could kill him with a single slap. That still didn't count as true invincibility.

Before long, Dazhuang's health had returned to full, and he was lively and full of energy again.

At that moment, Dazhuang said excitedly, "Lord, I can feel a healing power inside me. It keeps restoring my health!"

Cao Xing nodded.

"Thank you, Lord! Your power is so great and vast!"

[Dazhuang's loyalty to you has increased. Current loyalty: 80.]

Cao Xing began to consider a question.

[Ice Healing] could let the Polar Folk recover health endlessly, but could it work on him or Liu Muxue as well?

After thinking for a moment, Cao Xing cast [Ice Healing] on Liu Muxue too.

The same system notification appeared.

[Ice Healing cast successfully. Talent [Eternal Power] has taken effect. This skill has become permanent...]

Cao Xing and Liu Muxue widened their eyes, and they could both see the shock in each other's pupils.

Holy crap! This talent worked on human survivors too!

All Cao Xing could say was, "This is incredible!"

This would give his ability to survive a qualitative leap!

He couldn't wait to cast a glow of green light on himself too.

But just as he was about to raise his staff, waves of dizziness washed over him, and he nearly fainted.

Cao Xing shook his head and quickly figured out why.

"Is my mental strength too low? Have I hit my limit after casting two Ice Healing spells?"

Mental strength could be restored through resting or eating.

However, the most urgent thing now was to drive away or kill the poisonous snake in that patch of woods.

Otherwise, the territory's supply of wood would be cut off.

There were currently two people on the team who could recover health endlessly. They should be able to handle ordinary monsters.

Cao Xing said directly, "Come with me. We're going to deal with that poisonous snake."

The two Polar Folk raised their Stone Axes and shouted, "We'll follow the Lord!"

Then he led Dazhuang, Erzhuang, and Liu Muxue out of the Lord's Hut.

As for Sanzhuang and Sizhuang, they were busy carrying Stone to the territory.

[Stone +1] [Stone +1]

System notifications kept appearing.

Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction.

Before long, they had stepped outside the area covered by the bonfire.

In an instant,

the temperature plunged by more than ten degrees!

A wave of cold swept over them, like invisible blades constantly slicing across their bodies.

Stabs of pain coursed through them.

Liu Muxue immediately curled up, her body shivering from the cold.

Even Cao Xing felt stiffness spreading through his body.

The weather at minus fifty degrees was terrifying. Without the Polar Folk's constitution and cold-resistant clothes, they wouldn't last more than a few minutes before freezing solid.

Fortunately, the patch of woods Cao Xing was heading for was not far from the bonfire, only a little over a hundred meters away.

The four of them walked across the snow, leaving one footprint after another.

Before long, they arrived at the small grove. Dozens of white birch trees grew sparsely there, their branches covered in ice and snow.

"Lord! The poisonous snake is over there!"

Following the direction Dazhuang pointed, Cao Xing indeed spotted a huge snake about two meters long, coiled around a branch of a large tree.

"Hiss! Hiss!"

The poisonous snake was white all over. It flicked its scarlet tongue at the four of them and took on a threatening posture.

The poisonous snake's stats appeared before Cao Xing.

[Snowfield Viper: Level 2] [Race: Beast] [Health: 160/160] [Attack: 8-10] [Attributes: Strength 4, Agility 7, Spirit 5, Constitution 8] [Skills: Ambush, Neurotoxin] [Note: This is a viper that adapted to the polar environment and completed an unknown evolution.]

A level 2 beast. No wonder Dazhuang and Erzhuang couldn't beat it even together.

Even with Cao Xing, they might have to be careful to stand a chance against it.

But things were different now.

Because his team had two members with infinite health regeneration!

Of course, Liu Muxue didn't have any combat ability at the moment.

Cao Xing had brought her along only to help her get used to the pace of combat in this world.

Liu Muxue was a clever woman.

She understood what Cao Xing meant and was accepting everything in this world as quickly as she could.

"Dazhuang, attack!" Cao Xing ordered.

At his words, Dazhuang charged forward, raising the Stone Axe in his hands.

His loyalty was as high as 80, so he could basically follow orders to the letter and wouldn't disobey Cao Xing.

"Hiss!!!"

The Snowfield Viper's body instantly arched, then suddenly launched itself forward!

Whoosh!

Like a streak of white, it bit down on Dazhuang's shoulder in an instant.

Its sharp fangs pierced through Dazhuang's thick snow gear and sank into his flesh.

[-6]

The next moment, purple -2, -2 numbers appeared above Dazhuang's head again.

Dazhuang had been poisoned again.

However, it wasn't long before green +3, +3 numbers appeared.

Dazhuang's face lit up.

"I have a blessing from the lord! You evil thing, you can never hurt me again!"

With that, Dazhuang reached out and grabbed the Snowfield Viper by the neck.

Then he swung his axe down at it.
