Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

"Leader, I've broken through."

"Bro, I've reached the Lumbering Realm too."

Xia Chuan and Yuan Cheng had actually broken through at the same time!

Seeing the two of them lift the five-thousand-pound logs one after the other, Xia Hong breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

Lumbering Realm, three of them!

Although their strength was weak compared to other camps, it was finally a start.

Moreover, Yue Feng, Lin Kai, and the other five had also improved greatly during this time.

As long as they followed the established plan, it was only a matter of time before they slowly returned to their previous state.

The next day, just after nightfall, Xia Chuan and Yuan Cheng, with excited expressions, fastened their stone axes to their waists and followed beside Xia Hong.

"I'll say it again, Redwood Ridge is very dangerous. Listen to me outside, and don't act without permission. Tonight, the main thing is to familiarize you with our territory. Also, each of you must chop down a tree individually."

"Understood, Leader!"

Sensing the seriousness in Xia Hong's tone, Xia Chuan didn't call him 'Bro,' but for the first time, together with Yuan Cheng, called him 'Leader.'

Xia Hong nodded, instructed Yue Feng and the other five behind him, and led the way out of the cave, with Yuan Cheng and Xia Chuan closely following behind.

Now that Xia Chuan was also going out, Yue Feng and the other five would naturally be responsible for the camp. The camp was hidden enough, so as long as no special circumstances arose, safety should be guaranteed.

Although it was night, under the light reflected by the snow, Xia Hong could clearly see the excited expressions on Xia Chuan and Yuan Cheng's faces.

In fact, it wasn't just them; Xia Hong was also excited the first time he went out.

Because they had been staying in the cave all the time, sealing the cave during the day. When Xia Ding was around, they could still open the cave entrance to get some air at night.

Now that Xia Ding was gone, for more than a month, except for him, everyone in the camp had hardly seen the light.

"The humans in this world are probably cursed…"

Just after transmigrating and understanding this world, Xia Hong had this feeling.

Forever frozen, unable to see the light, only able to hide in the shadows, with a huge disparity in strength compared to the Frost Beasts, and inexplicable, bizarre creatures claiming lives.

The predicament faced by humans in this world was simply inconceivable.

This was no longer a hell-level predicament.

The real eighteen levels of hell were probably no more than this.

Xia Hong didn't know if there were any humans living with dignity, but at least what he saw at the moment was such a hellish picture.

The Rogue Camp, should they be living okay?

As Xia Hong's thoughts drifted, he had already reached the outskirts of Redwood Ridge.

"Tonight's tasks are two: one is to familiarize you with the environment here, including where the Frost Beasts are, how to identify them, the types of wood nearby, and the extent of our Great Xia Camp's territory.

The other is that you two must each chop down a tree and bring it back tonight."

The excitement on their faces hadn't faded, and Xia Hong didn't want to spoil their mood. He led them around the outskirts while explaining the situation.

For more than twenty nights, Xia Hong could say that he knew the area within five hundred meters like the back of his hand.

The location of the three Ice Shuo trees, the seven Golden Dread trees confirmed to be inhabited by Frost Beasts;

The area with the densest distribution of Crimson Frost trees, the location with the most small Crimson Frost trees.

After introducing each location one by one, Xia Chuan and Yuan Cheng didn't say anything, but listened silently, keeping everything in mind.

It wasn't until the three of them reached the location of the third Ice Shuo tree that an interlude occurred.

There were people near the third Ice Shuo tree.

Unlike Xia Chuan and Yuan Cheng, Xia Hong was always paying attention to the surrounding situation as he walked.

So when he was still more than a hundred meters away from the third Ice Shuo tree, he noticed movement over there.

"There are people ahead. Tread lightly and don't make a sound. Let's take a look first."

Xia Hong was the first to crouch down, and Xia Chuan and the two of them followed him, hiding behind the trees around the snow, slowly approaching the third Ice Shuo tree.

Although the visibility in the snow was okay, it was night after all. It wasn't until they walked to a position more than thirty meters away from the Ice Shuo tree that Xia Hong could see clearly over there.

After seeing clearly, his brows furrowed instantly, and his face was a little unsightly.

He couldn't see people's faces clearly from this far, but he saw that there were four people, and one of them was carrying a large knife.

It was someone from the Great Stone Camp.

This was the fifth time Xia Hong had seen people from the Great Stone Camp intruding into his territory.

That's right, since the Snow Mane incident, in the twenty-odd days since then, Xia Hong had seen people from the Great Stone Camp in his territory three more times.

During this time, he had found a total of three Ice Shuo trees.

The first one was on the west side, which was the one closest to the Great Stone Camp.

The second one was more than a hundred meters north of the entrance he used to enter Redwood Ridge each time.

The third one was the one in front of him, located on the eastern side of the entire territory.

The Great Xia territory was only five hundred meters wide. Xia Hong always came in from the middle. The previous four times, he had seen people from the Great Stone Camp on the west side. This time, they were actually on the east side.

This also meant that the people from the Great Stone Camp were not only coming in brazenly, but the degree of penetration was also becoming more and more excessive.

"The four of you from the Great Stone Camp are crossing the line, aren't you!"

This time, Xia Hong didn't choose to turn a blind eye. He stood up directly, walked towards the Ice Shuo tree, and rebuked loudly.

Hearing Xia Hong's words, Yuan Cheng and Xia Chuan realized that the four people were from the Great Stone Camp, and immediately stood up angrily, following behind Xia Hong.

Thieves are always guilty. The four people from the Great Stone Camp were originally picking crystal fruits from the tree. Hearing a rebuke, they immediately jumped down from the tree and stared nervously at Xia Hong's side.

And as Xia Hong approached, he kept his eyes on the surroundings.

The Great Stone Camp had two archers; he didn't know if they were here or not.

"May I ask who the three of you are?"

One of the four people stood up and asked about the identities of Xia Hong and the other two. Judging from the voice, it was a middle-aged man.

Xia Hong walked closer and saw the four people clearly. They were all middle-aged. The one who stood up was the only one among the four who was carrying a knife.

The previous owner of that knife had already been beheaded by Snow Mane.

"Great Xia Camp, Xia Hong."

"It's Old Ding's son."

Xia Hong saw the other party clearly, and the other party naturally saw Xia Hong clearly as well.

The man holding the large knife recognized Xia Hong's appearance immediately.

"So young?"

"Out at night, already at the Lumbering Realm."

"Old Ding gave birth to a good son."

The other three seemed to know Xia Ding as well. Whether they were intentionally praising him or were really shocked by Xia Hong's youth, they all spoke up.

"The four of you, don't talk about other things. You're picking fruits; you're crossing the line, aren't you?"

"Hey, you…"

The last person to jump down from the tree, seeing that Xia Hong wasn't playing along and was still bringing up the issue of crossing the line, was obviously a little annoyed and angry. He even took two steps towards Xia Hong.

However, before he could finish speaking, the man with the knife reached out and stopped him.

"Nephew, my name is Wang Ming. I know your father, Xia Ding. If you're willing, you can call me Uncle Ming. Recently, our camp has had some problems, and the shortage of crystal fruits is too great. There's really no other way. That's why I brought them here tonight to borrow some food from your Great Xia.

Once we get through this, we'll return it immediately. How about it?"

After hearing Wang Ming's words, Xia Hong's face suddenly turned gloomy.

The other party was treating him like a monkey!

Xia Hong just stared at Wang Ming, not speaking for a long time.

However, Xia Chuan behind him couldn't help but speak angrily at this time.

"Steal if you're going to steal. What are you talking about borrowing? Bro, don't waste your breath on them. When the Rogue Camp demarcated the territory back then, they said that trespassing on another's territory is equivalent to killing someone. I'll go back and notify Father immediately and have him bring people over."

Hearing Xia Chuan's words, Wang Ming and the four people behind him suddenly turned grim.
