Chapter 706 [Quietly, Easily]
The construction of the city walls was non-stop, and everyone was working hard, whether it was the regular army or the mercenaries, there was no sign of laziness.
It's really not how hard they work, it's mainly for the sake of their own lives.
If they are arranged to build other houses in the city after the fortifications are built, then both the regular army and the mercenary soldiers will be more or less lazy, because they don't have to worry about any danger at all.
But at this juncture in the construction of the city wall, they really dare not be lazy and make mistakes.
If the fortifications are not built one day, everyone's life safety will not be guaranteed one day, and at this time, they still have any intention to be lazy, and they wish to complete the fortifications day and night and then have a good rest.
This kind of motivation makes them look like they are building their own home, and they have to work as hard as they can.
……
As the sun set, a large number of regular troops and mercenaries came outside the city, ready to defend against monsters that could attack at any time.
The people who had been busy working on the city wall for half a day were also replaced, and the overall strength of this group of people who started work at night was much stronger than that of the group during the day, in case of a monster attack, these people could also join the battle as soon as possible.
When the sun sets, monsters infest.
The low roar of the monster beast was heard in the forest in the distance, and the music in the sky could see the flying monster flying in the distance.
Any night in the Dark World is nerve-wracking, and in such a new city with no fortifications, everyone's mood seems even more tense.
The people under and on the walls of the city moved more quickly, and they wished that the construction of the city walls would be completed immediately.
But the walls were not only high but also thick. It doesn't happen overnight.
Nervousness is not without its benefits, at least it has made them more productive.
"City Lord. Princess, it's nightfall. Let's go back to the City Lord's Mansion and come back tomorrow morning if there's anything." Wood said, looking at the sky.
"Go back yourself." Xianglin said: "I'm here now to see the situation of the demon beasts, if it's serious, I think I need to mobilize some more soldiers to come over." ”
"It's ......," Wood was a little embarrassed.
The situation of monsters can only be observed at night, but this night is dangerous at any time, in case something happens to the two princesses, he can't explain it.
But seeing Yang Yi beside them, he was suddenly relieved.
Since she herself asked him to leave first, then he has a reason not to be there, no matter what happens, the blame can't be on his head, isn't this Yang Yi their man, if it is not good to protect the princess. Anyway, it's also his problem!?
In that case, what is he doing here?
"Since the city lord wants to stay here to inspect, then it will be inefficient for me to stay here and do the same thing, as a deputy, I think I can go back to the city lord's mansion to complete some other things to help the city lord reduce the burden." Wood said in a high-sounding voice.
"Hmm." Xianglin nodded, and walked towards the city wall first.
Wood turned away, he wished something had happened to them.
With Yang Yi here, he must not be able to look forward to their accidents.
Yang Yi and the four of them walked up to the city wall.
For the time being, only Wood knew Xianglin's identity, so the people on the city wall only had doubts when they saw them.
But these are all human spirits, and they look at each other one by one. From the temperament exuded from them, you can feel that they are not ordinary people, although they did not say hello, but no one came to offend them.
Four men walked on the city walls.
The walls were so wide that even the side by side would not hinder their work.
"Wife. This wall will be 100 meters high, and it will take two months to complete, right? "Fortunately, in the way of using building blocks, the stones can be hung and stacked directly. If it were like Qin Shi Huang who built the Great Wall, hehe. I really don't know that it will take the Year of the Monkey to complete it.
Of course, Yang Yi's purpose in asking this question was not really to know how long it would take for the city wall to be built.
What he thought in his heart was that his wife had a strong sense of responsibility. It's definitely impossible for her to leave here without doing anything, after all, the city has a lot at stake, but he can't really stay here for six or seven years, that would be too bad.
The most important thing in a city is the fortifications, and perhaps she can be persuaded to hand over the matter at hand after the fortifications are built.
In doing so, she has at least accomplished what has always been very important.
Yang Yi felt that Di Xin would definitely understand his intentions, and he believed that Di Xin had now found a spare candidate to replace Xiang Lin.
True, as soon as the fortifications were completed, he persuaded her to leave.
Xianglin didn't know that Yang Yi's question still had this kind of thought, and said: "Two months should be about the same, but the fortifications of this city have to be connected with the two surrounding cities, so I think the total time should be longer, and it is estimated that it will take about half a year." ”
"It's been so long." Yang Yi muttered.
Two months is too long for him, let alone half a year.
As long as the city's fortifications are completed, persuade her to leave, and the defense line connecting the surrounding cities will be handed over to others to do well, anyway, her biggest role here is to supervise the work, and there is already a blueprint for urban design and everything, so she basically doesn't need to worry about anything, and it's almost the same to change people.
When the city was built, the importance of the city lord was not very large, and the real importance of a city lord was actually how to manage a city well.
There's no way she's going to stay here and manage the city anyway.
It was decided, and when the fortifications were completed, she was told to leave.
"After all, the significance of this city is very special, and half a year to connect the surrounding defense system is actually not a long time." Xianglin said as she walked.
"I have no idea when the city was built, and I don't know if half a year is a long time to connect the perimeter defense line, anyway, my wife said it would be soon." It doesn't matter if he's been for a long time, he has his own plan anyway.
Xianglin looked at him and smiled.
With a beloved man on her side to support her, Xianglin felt inexplicably relaxed, even if building this city required tremendous pressure, she felt nothing at the moment, just having him by her side.
The four of them walked on the city walls, and it was getting darker and darker.
There are obviously more and more traces of monster infestation.
The sound of the monsters in the distant forest is getting closer and closer, and it feels like they have come to the edge of the forest and are about to approach the city, and there are more and more monsters flying in the sky, perhaps because of the city lights, these flying monsters did not rush down to attack humans, but hovered in the air, as if looking for a lone human, waiting for an opportunity to suck him dry.
The entire city is besieged by demon beasts, and everyone inside and outside the city is in tension, as if everyone is living in the huge shadow of demon beasts.
Only by seeing this vivid picture can we understand how far-reaching Di Xin's intentions are.
If his plan succeeds, the Dark Empire will unintentionally usher in a historic milestone, and the people of the Empire will no longer have to worry about the invasion of monsters, even if it is dark night, they will be able to move around with peace of mind, instead of being nervous as soon as it is dark here.
"Be careful, the monster is coming."
Yang Yizheng sighed with emotion, and someone outside the city shouted.
I saw a huge demon beast running towards this side in front of me, and the speed and strength were enough to knock down a big hole in the unbuilt city wall.
The warriors outside the city immediately met the battle, roaring and bursting out with their own power, and the huge power of yin and yang condensed together and even caused light to shine from them.
On the city wall, Yang Yi took out his gun.
Aim, shoot.
"Bang."
Without using any force, the monster didn't even feel anything close to it before it fell to the ground.
The fallen demon beast was still running fast a second ago, and after falling, it slid forward under the action of inertia, just stopped under the city wall, and just stopped in front of the guard warriors.
They were all stupid.
What's going on?
Why did the demon beast that was running at them just now suddenly fall to the ground? Suddenly had a stroke? Or did you suddenly have a myocardial infarction? I've never heard of monsters and these problems.
The fat man picked up his weapon and poked it hard at the demon beast in front of him, whether it was dead or not, and poked it directly into its head.
Yang Yi's shot directly pierced its head, and now there is no reaction, let alone poking it, even if it blows its head out, there is no reaction.
A group of stunned fighters suddenly exploded, and the paralysis turned out to be really dead? This, this, this, this is incredible.
Running and running and dying in front of them, could it be that there are masters in this city who have set an absolute ban? Prevent all monsters from approaching? No, there was a monster attack a few days ago, and it took them a lot of effort to kill it.
Due to the construction of the city wall, all kinds of noise were very loud, and they did not hear the gunshot.
Not only the people under the city, but even the people on the city wall near Yang Yi didn't notice that it was this gunshot that killed the demon beast just now.
People in the dark world generally believe that only powerful energy can kill powerful demon beasts, so they don't realize what happened just now.
In fact, Yang Yi's gun can run rampant in the dark world, killing powerful demon beasts, to a large extent, it has something to do with the fact that this world relies too much on energy, take demon beasts as an example, demon beasts only defend against the proximity of powerful energy, and disdain all physical things, for their huge bodies, physical things close to them are often not any threat, and there is no need to defend at all.
As a result, Yang Yi easily killed them with a small bullet, and he didn't know how he died until he died, let alone who killed them.
Evolution has made them extremely sensitive to energy reactions, and strong people can react immediately when they get close to them, but they instinctively ignore things that have no energy when they approach them, which provides Yang Yi with great convenience. (To be continued......)
