Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Upon hearing Xia Hong's inquiry, Xiao Ning's face turned red at once. After a long while, she answered in a voice as faint as a mosquito's, "Brother, it's been almost two months."

Xiao Yu saw the scene and covered her mouth, secretly giggling on the side.

It's only May now, and since Ice Abyss requires a ten-month pregnancy, with only two months in, it's probably going to be born early next year.

This would be the family's first second-generation member!

In this regard, Xia Chuan, this younger brother, is indeed stronger than me.

The smile on Xia Hong's face grew even brighter. He took out two large and one small porcelain bottles from his bosom, directly handed them to Xiao Ning, and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, as the elder brother, I haven't paid much attention to you all, and I even heard about your pregnancy from others, which is a bit irresponsible. These three bottles of spirit pills are my gifts to you two."

The three bottles were clearly labeled: Beast Spirit Pill, Blood Essence Pill, Yangyuan Pill.

Xiao Ning has been staying in the camp most of the time because of her pregnancy but still had to visit the Camp Supply Department often. These three pills, she knew, only went on sale in the Camp Supply Department a few days ago.

The Beast Spirit Pill is an enhanced version of the Beast Essence Pill, with each capsule costing 200 Contribution Points;

The Blood Essence Pill is even more precious, used only after reaching the Earth-digging Realm Limit to reshape the skin membrane, with each costing 700 Contribution Points;

The Yangyuan Pill needs no mention; it's a Cold Resistance Level cultivation spirit pill, each costing 3000 Contribution Points.

Moreover, all three kinds of pills have personal exchange limits, which implies that the Camp Supply Department's stock is limited.

Xiao Ning took the three porcelain bottles and felt the amount of pills inside, her breath pausing for a moment. But she still immediately opened her mouth to decline, saying:

"Big brother, please don't think that way. Actually, upon learning about my pregnancy, my husband wanted to inform you right away. But considering how busy you are daily, we thought it better to wait until after the baby is born before telling you. I can't accept these pills!"

However, Xia Hong interrupted her directly, waving his hand, and said:

"Your Basic Strength is already twenty-seven thousand. With this batch of Beast Spirit Pills and Beast Meat, along with a few visits to the Martial Arts Academy, breaking through to a thirty thousand pounds limit in a few months shouldn't be hard. I'll have someone bring you 500 pounds of Beast Blood later, and you should try to break through to the Cold Resistance Level as soon as possible, hopefully before giving birth..."

Upon this, Xia Hong paused a bit before continuing, "These things aren't just a gift for you. Breaking through to the Cold Resistance Level is beneficial for the future talent of the child within you."

Hearing this, Xiao Ning's face showed a slight pause, knowing she had no chance to refuse, she felt somewhat touched.

"This room feels a bit lonely. I'll have Qiu Peng arrange two maids for you, so someone can help take care of things in daily life."

Hearing that maids were going to be arranged for her, Xiao Ning instinctively wanted to refuse.

In fact, after capturing Wushuang, Beehive, and Hanqiong recently, they had also taken in quite a few female captives, but the 'maid' position had never been opened by the Camp Supply Department, clearly preparing for something later.

Currently in Great Xia, only Xia Hong as the leader is qualified to have maids, while others using them would be overstepping the bounds. This is one of Great Xia's current rules, and Xia Hong giving her maids clearly goes against the norms.

"Alright, I'll make sure to inform Qiu Peng, don't worry."

However, Xia Hong still didn't give her a chance to refuse. After speaking, he still smilingly asked, "The child's name hasn't been decided yet, has it?"

Upon hearing this question, Xiao Ning suddenly recalled something and replied:

"Not yet. My husband once said, 'the eldest brother is like a father.' It's his first child and also our Xia family's first second-generation member, so it should be named by you, elder brother."

Hearing this, Xia Hong's expression became somewhat moved.

This indeed sounded like something Xia Chuan would say.

He pondered for a moment before his face showed a bit of difficulty.

Coming up with a name starting with 'Xia' really is not easy.

If not chosen well, it could become a joke!

"What can be associated with 'Xia' while still sounding nice..."

Seeing him ponder deeply, neither Xiao Ning nor Xiao Yu interrupted but continued to wait.

Soon, Xia Hong's eyes lit up.

"The girl will be Xia Yuning, and the boy will be Xia Yuzong. How about that?"

Hearing these two names, Xiao Ning's eyes instantly sparkled.

"Yu Ning, Yu Zong, elder brother, these names are just perfect!"

"Hahaha, not too bad..."

Upon hearing this, Xia Hong's face also showed a bit of pride, laughing heartily a few times, not forgetting to tease Xiao Yu beside Xiao Ning, saying, "Keep it up, what your sister has, you won't lack either."

Xiao Yu immediately lowered her head, her face also blushing red in an instant.

Seeing her thin-skinned, Xia Hong didn't continue to tease, but turned with a smile to the boy behind the two girls, saying, "You're Xiao Hen, right?"

The leader remembers my name?

A look of astonishment flashed across Xiao Hen's face at first, then a burst of intense joy erupted in his eyes. He bowed to Xia Hong and said, "Xiao Hen greets the leader!"

"Weren't you curious about the competition rules of the Logging Realm group? Let me leak a bit of insider news, how about it?"

So the leader knew all about my little thoughts...

Xiao Hen couldn't help but hear the teasing tone in Xia Hong's words. His face was full of embarrassment, and he stammered for a long time, not daring to answer him.

"Hahaha, your elder sister and second sister are right, the first round screening mechanism in the Logging Realm is, strength isn't the deciding factor; luck, connections, ability, teamwork are all indispensable. That's all I'll reveal to you; whether or not you can seize the opportunity is up to you..."

Xia Hong, rarely in the mood to tease someone, took a few steps towards the outside and continued, "The first prize in the Logging Realm is 30 Beast Spirit Pills, 1000 pounds of Intermediate Beast Meat, 3000 Contribution Points, a set of Hundred-forged Weapons and Armor, a ten-day Martial Arts Hall cultivation quota, and 20 pounds of refined salt.

Right, those who place in both the Logging Realm and Earth-digging Realm groups will have an opportunity to observe the Cold Resistance Level group's competition up close. Kid, I hope to see you there then."

Hearing this, Xiao Hen's breathing became heavier, and even after Xia Hong walked far away, he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
