Chapter 6: The Abandoned Ancient City
The reason why Rahu stopped moving forward was because he saw a city, a city with broken walls, which looked somewhat dilapidated.
Is there a city on Mt. Fuji?
The world geography guide in Rahu's hand has not recorded it, and there are still cities here!
The World Geography Guide clearly states that it records all currently known cities above the county level.
Such a city is not recorded in the World Geography Guide, there are only two possibilities.
Either the city is currently unknown, or the city is below the county.
And whichever of these two possibilities is possible, Rahu has plenty of reasons to visit the city.
If it is an unknown city, Rahu can let his world geography guide record the city.
If this is a city below the county level, Rahu's first foothold in the Shengyang Continent will be settled.
With enough reasons to do it, let's get started!
Rahu flapped his wings and flew towards the city.
As Rahu continues to get closer, the city is also showing up in front of Rahu little by little.
The stone bricks of the city wall are covered with a thick layer of moss, and the damage to the city wall is not very long.
The appearance of moss on the stone bricks should have been left unattended for a long time, and the damage to the city wall has not been repaired for a long time, indicating that the city wall can no longer play a role in defending against the enemy.
Based on these two points, Rahu felt that this was most likely a ghost town, a ghost town without any inhabitants.
If it's a ghost town, then the city won't be of any use.
If a city wants to develop, it is inseparable from ordinary civilians, although civilians have no combat effectiveness, but they can produce gold coins and build buildings.
If building buildings can be replaced by soldiers, then only civilians can produce gold.
The big cities that Rahu has come into contact with so far include Versailles, Blood Moon City, and Dead Hill City, and as far as Rahu knows, the main sources of strategic gold coins in these three cities are all from civilians.
Let's take a look.
Rahu shook his head, ready to continue exploring the city.
It was about a few dozen minutes, and Rahu had almost explored the city.
Before it became a ghost town, the city was a city with towers, and it was also a high-level city, as for why this city became a ghost town, the reason for this is unknown.
However, after exploring the city, Rahu decided that he would make this his first stronghold in the Ascending Sun Continent.
Although the city is a ghost town, most of the ordinary buildings in the city have collapsed, and even the heavenly buildings have lost their original role because they have not been used for a long time.
But that wasn't the reason why Rahu made it his first base.
The lack of residents in the city is not a big problem, and with the funds that Luo Hu got in Blood Moon City, he still has more than 10 million strategic gold coins on him, and he is still not short of money for the time being.
The Heaven-Sent Architecture has lost its effect, and it has only lost its effect, and it is not completely broken and needs to be rebuilt.
In fact, with a small amount of resources to repair it, these godsends can continue to be put into use.
In this city, there is a sixth-order serpent barracks, and the council hall, castle, and innermost city wall are all sixth-order heavenly buildings.
In addition to these sixth-order facilities, there are all barracks from the first to the fifth order, and various functional buildings such as blacksmith shops and hero altars are also available.
It can be said that as long as the city is renovated, the city can be revitalized and become a sixth-order city again.
An existence as strong as the Marquis of Death Hill is nothing more than a sixth-order city.
Rahu's occupation of this ghost city is equivalent to picking up a big city like Dead Hill City for nothing, and being able to have a sixth-order city at this stage is extremely beneficial to Rahu, so big that even if the reason that caused this city to become a ghost town appears again, making this city a ghost town again, Rahu also admits it.
However, before taking the city, Rahu needed to restore the two core centers of the city, the council chamber and the castle, and only by repairing these two heavenly buildings could Rahu take control of the city.
To restore the city, you need civilians or soldiers.
Therefore, Rahu still has to go to the city he originally set.
After marking the ghost town in the World Geography Guide, Rahu once again flew into the sky and rushed towards the original target.
As Rahu progresses towards his target city, Rahu finds another obstacle that prevents him from repairing the ghost town.
The location of Rahu's appearance on the Shengyang Continent corresponds to the real world, which is the section from the mountainside of Mt. Fuji to the summit of Mt. Fuji, and the ghost town is naturally located in this position.
It takes a lot of time to get to the top of Mt. Fuji, which is a thousand-fold larger mountain, just to walk up to the top of Mt. Fuji, not to mention the wildlife that often appears on the way.
In the distance from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain, Rahu encountered hundreds of sixth-order creatures along the way, thousands of fifth-order creatures, and even more so lower-order creatures.
Moreover, these creatures are all creatures that have awakened their minds and have their own minds, which are not much different from humans.
Although Rahu appeared alone in the world, these creatures ran faster than rabbits one by one, but Rahu didn't think that when he appeared with a large number of civilians, these creatures would stay honestly and not come out to do things.
The presence of Rahu can certainly scare off these creatures, but Rahu is just a person and can't protect too many civilians.
Therefore, if you want to take a large number of civilians to repair your ghost town, you must recruit enough troops, and only enough troops can ensure the safety of civilians.
As a result, this went around and around, and the itinerary that Rahu arranged for himself did not change at all.
He still has to go to the area under Mount Fuji to occupy one, or some territory, or recruit a strong army, or he still has to clash with the native kingdom on the continent of Shengyang.
It's just that compared to before he didn't find this ghost town, Rahu has one more way out.
If the war between Rahu and the native kingdom of the Shengyang Continent fails in the future, he can retreat to this ghost city with his army and civilians.
After expanding a thousandfold of Mt. Fuji, it is so big that it will be possible for the native kingdom that will have a conflict with Rahu in the future to go up to Mt. Fuji to search the mountain.
Thinking about it all the way, Rahu arrived at his destination, an earldom in the area around Mount Fuji.
