Chapter 43: Newbie Village, just around the corner!
High in the sky, a black bird shadow swirled.
The sun shines on the Sala Wa desert, making this area shine brightly.
In the golden sand, something faint and imperceptible seemed to float.
It could also be that the sand has been affected by something and flowed into the crevices.
Known as the 'Belt of Silence', this desert is home to countless orc races to the north and an empire of human civilization to the south, a prosperous kingdom under the reign of Harry III.
Because the desert is so vast and full of unknowns, it takes too long to cross it.
If it is not a major war, then no matter how strong an army is, it will not want to walk in.
Who will come to this dangerous forbidden area that is rarely off the beaten track?
Maybe there is only the wind in the distance, and there are people who are bent on death.
At the end of the desert, it has been connected to the vast forest and steppe since yesterday.
Among them, there is a tall red-leaved giant tree on the mountain at the junction of each other.
The tree looks quite spiritual and exudes a unique aura.
Each leaf on it grows vigorously and is full of foliage, and every time a hot wind blows from the desert, it always makes it rustle.
Soon, it was discovered that there were many creatures moving under the tree, and there were movements from time to time.
"Crackling."
The two root minions of the tree kept whipping a two-meter-high square rubble wall, as if they were testing the solidity.
The same situation can be seen everywhere around at the same time:
Stone stairs, stone foundations, stone pillars, stone railings, external shear walls, and many other stone objects are being tested by the roots and minions of the tree, which is the last test of solidity.
Unqualified explosions, or cracks and disintegrations are all abandoned.
There are mainly load-bearing structural components, non-load-bearing enclosure structures, etc.
No doubt.
The finished building structure he created himself looks more fulfilling.
For three days after the earthquake, Charlotte was grinding and making buildings, and her proficiency grew.
To put it simply, just give him a pair of stones, sand and dirt, and you can make a stone wall with a shape.
The foundation needs to be strong and bearable, Charlotte is a combination of flat boulders in the next mountain, as for the other buildings, it is basically a mixture of rubble and sand.
Since the most difficult foundation can be put together, the problem will be half solved.
The construction of a relatively large building such as a fortress is due to the thick soft soil layer responsible for burying the foundation, and the use of shallow buried foundation cannot meet the requirements of foundation strength and deformation.
Combined with the limited tools and materials, Charlotte thought it over......
He plans to adopt the dual fixation method of pile foundation and buried foundation to strengthen safety and quality standards.
First of all, the role of the pile foundation is to transfer the load through the pile to the deep buried hard soil layer, or to the foundation through the friction around the pile.
If it is combined with the cooperation of the foundation, the stability will be greatly improved.
Of course, this is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and difficult.
At this time, there were traces of excavation on the ground around Charlotte's side.
The Minotaur clan is using a combination of wooden sticks and stone shovels, constantly digging and pushing pits.
They looked calm, and piled every piece of dirt they dug up beside the ditch, shaped like a hill.
The Monkey Boss did not participate in this hard work.
It played with mud in the sand pile next to it, and learned from the mother tree to make small models of structures, which were very similar.
Through observation, it seems to be able to learn a lot of new knowledge and become smarter day by day.
Watching the little monkey keep scratching his head, he worked tirelessly on engineering.
Xia Luo had mixed feelings in her heart, and from time to time she said secretly with emotion,
"Persuade monkeys to learn engineering, the sky is thundering!"
Maybe it won't be long before the monkey boss will be bald.
A fortress is not something that can be built in a day.
This is not, and it is not a tiled house, nor is it a cowshed
Charlotte was not in a hurry, lest he make a tofu scum project, but it would not be good to hurt himself.
It took a total of three and a half days.
When the foundation is buried in the dug square earth pit, the piling will also begin.
How to drive piles, in fact, this matter is not difficult for monsters.
"My first fortress was built by me!"
Charlotte rolls up a stone stake into the air with the root of a tree, and throws it in a violent throw in a certain direction of the pit.
"Bang!" There was a muffled sound, and the stone stakes were embedded in the soil.
……
Ten kilometers away from the mangroves on the mountain.
I saw a green figure walking in the wind and sand, and he couldn't stop walking.
He looked tall and thin, and he couldn't help but be weak.
The wind couldn't shake its shape for half a minute.
The mud that he had stepped on with his tiptoes on both sides left only a shallow mark, as if it had come from a long distance.
Not long after, the green figure suddenly stopped.
'Found it, master. ’
He looked at the village in the distance and seemed to be lost in thought......
This is an ancient village that exists on a yellow dirt slope, and many civilians live and work here.
"Let's go inside." Charlotte's consciousness was connected to the other's body.
Soon, he took full control of the sword spirit tree's shell, and regained a sense of freedom to walk for a few minutes.
Any creature that is sown out, his consciousness can intervene and exercise absolute control.
"Is this the Newbie Village?"
Charlotte picked up a black linen cloth that had been discarded on the ground and draped it directly over her head and body, hiding her eyes and ears.
He walked slowly, as if observing his surroundings:
The village is not large, and there are only about 40 buildings including the cowshed, and it is estimated that there are less than 100 people.
Towards noon, Charlotte only saw a few children running by on the road, and could barely see anyone else.
If you're not mistaken, the adults are still busy at work.
"Huh?"
A snotty little child saw him and was cautiously looking at something.
This seems to be an outsider, huh?
Walking up the ramp at the high point, Charlotte looked at the flat thatched houses, and the cold wind blew the beams that fell to the ground beside her.
Life in this kind of border village is probably boring and simple.
Of course, because of the location, it is easy to be infested by bandits and robbers.
On the highest hill in the village, there is a golden lion emblem of the Hari dynasty, indicating the protection of the Empire.
If any robbers try to cause trouble in this village, they will be pursued by the army.
"There, is it ......?"
Charlotte saw a wide white flat stone platform in the middle of the village, which was stylistically incompatible with the surrounding buildings.
If you're not mistaken, that's the player's random spawn point.
