The two caravans carrying timber had been on a dusty journey, and their men had stayed for the night in the inn of Ratchet Town yesterday, and had left this morning after breakfast.

Lu Xiaoming and the others hadn't drunk enough, and they had been drinking noisily in the hotel since early in the morning.

Yang Yi came to the hotel, he ordered a large glass of thunder beer, and then drank it slowly.

Lu Xiaoming comfortably enjoyed the massage of the two big-breasted beauties, and this time he still arranged someone to be responsible for reporting the battle situation in real time, so from time to time someone got up from the table to report a few words to Lu Xiaoming.

After Yang Yi stayed for half an hour, several people from the Qin Kun Society who were lying on the table suddenly got up, and they all asked for credit to report to Lu Xiaoming.

"Young Master, the battle is over......"

"Young master, the backwater oasis has burned down, and only a ruin remains......"

"Young master, even the lake in the backwater oasis has turned black and polluted by things......"

"Young Master, the Horde Alliance has retreated, and the Kokar Centaurs have also left......"

"The young master is wise, the young master is clever, and the tribal alliance has escaped under the young master's clever plan."

"Well, everybody has a reward, and there is a lot of reward. The tribal alliance is nothing great, it's just a group of aborigines, wahaha" Lu Xiao laughed, he stood on the wine table and shook his body proudly.

"Mouse, who won this battle?" Lu Xiaoming stood on the table and asked the young man wearing a cyan headband.

"No one won." The headband youth said.

"I'll take it, his grandmother's, and it's a draw?" Lu Xiaoming burst into foul language, and he said angrily: "These aborigines, every time they call around, they keep one hand, why can't they beat you to the death little by little." ”

"It's really unlucky, regardless of these aborigines. We continued to drink, and it tasted pretty good about this dwarven spirit, haha. Lu Xiaoming's state of mind was very good, and he immediately drank happily again.

Yang Yi was drinking wine on the side, and he had an idea in his heart after listening to the report of Lu Xiaoming's subordinates.

"So the backwater oasis is in ruins after a big war, and even the lake is destroyed by something, and now the backwater oasis is empty."

Yang Yi thought about it, he still had a task to occupy the backwater oasis on his hands. So he quickly left the inn, found a place where no one was, and took out the scroll and looked at it carefully.

"One of the rewards for the quest is the [Level 1 Spawning Ground Construction Blueprint], which is for amphibians and reptiles to lay eggs, which can not only increase the hatching rate, but also improve the survival rate of the cubs and speed up the growth of the cubs, which looks pretty good."

"The mission statement only says to occupy the Backwater Oasis, so it is better to send the fishmen in the town to occupy the ruins of the Backwater Oasis first. The ruins of the backwater oasis are nothing but ruins, and the task is completed first. ”

Yang Yi felt that this method was feasible, so he immediately called Brak and took Brak to the barracks to take away the three hundred-man battle fish-man brigade.

"Take a trip to the Backwater Oasis with the Master."

Yang Yi took Brak and three hundred battle fishmen and set off immediately.

Coming to the vicinity of the backwater oasis, Yang Yi looked at the ruins that had been completely burned, except for the charred wooden stakes left on the ground after being burned by the fire, all that remained was the embers that were still emitting black smoke.

"This fire burned completely enough, and no one could have achieved this effect if they were deliberately burned."

Yang Yi led the fighting fishmen in the town towards the completely burned woods, which were lush forests some time ago, and in the blink of an eye, they became a wasteland with nothing because of the war.

"The mission says it's to occupy the backwater oasis, but what does it mean to occupy it? Can't you build a station here? Yang Yi thinks about how this can accomplish the task.

"Lord, there's someone over there." Braque suddenly pointed to the lake in front of him.

Yang Yi looked over, and there was indeed a figure on the edge of the lake. "It's a minotaur, and it's a little familiar to see the back."

Using the Eagle Eye Technique to look over, Yang Yi found that the minotaur turned out to be Jerek. Mountains.

Jerrick the Minotaur lives in seclusion on the top of Thundering Peak on the edge of a backwater oasis, and he knows the land in this area like the back of his hand.

Yang Yi walked over with the fish-man and found that the backwater oasis lake was now completely covered in black oil stains.

Jerrick the Minotaur was standing on the edge of the lake thinking about something, when hundreds of fishmen came over, and he soon heard the movement.

"Jerrick, it's been good lately" Yang Yi greeted the minotaur warmly, and he asked, "What are you thinking about alone by the lake?" ”

"Hello, friend." Jerek was also very happy to see Yang Yi, but he immediately said with a lot of worry: "Jerek is trying to find a way to purify this polluted lake, what are so many of you doing here?" ”

"We heard that the backwater oasis had been burned down, and it was so sad that we came to see what was going on." Yang Yi said.

"It's a pity that this backwater oasis is one of the few woods in the barren land, and this lake is also a rare source of pure water, which was originally a gift from Mother Earth." Jerry nodded heavily and said in a sad tone.

"Jerrick, is there anything you can do to purify these lakes?" Yang Yi asked. If the lake can be purified, which is polluted by unknown black oil stains, it will be more convenient for the fish-people of Ratchet Town to stay and build a station or something.

"We minotaurs know how to make purification totems to purify water sources, but we have to find a way to study what these black oil stains are before we can do so." Jerrick said.

"It's good to have a direction, if you need our fish-man help, just say it, let's take a look around." Yang Yi said.

"Thank you, and may Mother Earth protect you." Jerek said sincerely.

Yang Yi, who was protected by Mother Earth, didn't know, and he took the fish-men to scout the ruins of the burned woods, wanting to see if it was suitable for building a garrison in order to complete the task of occupying the backwater oasis.

This construction of the station is not a sloppy thing, the Kokar centaurs don't know if they will come again, and even the orcs may come back, Yang Yi has to find a suitable place to build the station as quickly as possible.

The Backwater Oasis is basically a flat land, with the high mountain of Thundering Peak to the southeast and two small hills to the west. Yang Yi looked at it, and finally chose to build a station at the foot of Leiming Peak.

Yang Yi left two large groups of fishmen and began to dig trenches to build fortifications, and then he led a group of fishmen in the direction of Jerick the Minotaur.

Yang Yi had just taken the fish-man around the big lake, and when he saw the minotaur Jerick again, he found that there were a few more people around him.

Minotaur Tuga. Rune Totem and Jerek stood side by side, holding a leather bag containing black sewage from the lake. The two minotaurs were discussing something, and they were surrounded by Mu Xiaolan, Scarface Jack, and Ouyang Ouyang, a master with a sword.

These people are all familiar with Yang Yi, and everyone greeted them after meeting.

"Jerrick, what is this black water? Have you found a way to purify the lake? Yang Yi asked curiously.

"Friend, we need your help from the fishmen." Jerrick said. "In order for the lake to be pure again, the earth must sacrifice a ferocious predator, and we need the claws of the male steppe lion to make a new totem to feed the lake."

After Jerrick finished speaking, Tuga continued in a calm voice: "There used to be a mysterious force at the bottom of the Dead Water Oasis, and we needed someone to dive into the bottom of the lake with dry seeds to confirm if this power still exists, but after the lake was polluted, the pin-billed turtles in the Back Water Oasis became irritable, and they began to attack the creatures that dived into the lake frantically. ”

After listening to the words of the two minotaurs, Yang Yi understood that Jerek wanted to find someone to hunt a male prairie lion, and then come back with the paws of the prairie lion. And Tuga wants to find someone to dive into the lake to see if the power is still there, which obviously needs the help of the fish-man.

"We fishmen can help with diving, but what is that power?" Yang Yi asked.

Tuga the Minotaur slowly explains: "The barren land has been turned into a dry and barren land by successive wars, but in the last few years, new oases have emerged in the barren lands, and the backwater oasis is one of them. We druids sense a force deep underground trying to break out of the ground, and these brave aliens have explored the lakes of the Forgotten Pools and Backwater Oases, and have found the source of this power beneath the lakes. It is the power that allows the dry seeds to sprout and grow again, and it is this power that brings life back to the land. ”

"......" Yang Yi was even more confused after stopping a large part of the Minotaur Tuga's explanation, but he could tell that this Tuga not only wanted to purify the lake, but also wanted to rejuvenate the oasis.

At this time, Mu Xiaolan, who was on the side, leaned her face over, and she whispered to Yang Yi: "There are some bubbling stone crevices under the lake, just sow the seeds around the stone crevices and observe them for a while." ”

"I see." Yang Yi nodded gratefully, he realized that Mu Xiaolan had ventured into the oasis occupied by the Kokar centaurs for this purpose.

"Understood, the task of diving to the bottom of the lake is entrusted to us fishmen." Yang Yi said.

"We're going to hunt male prairie lions." Mu Xiaolan followed.

Mu Xiaolan and the others went to find the grassland lion, Yang Yi explained to Brak, asked him to bring a handful of dried seeds that Tuga took out, and then led a large group of battle fishmen to dive into the lake together.

The lakes of the Backwater Oasis are several kilometers in circumference and nearly fifty meters deep at their deepest point, but these don't take much time for the fish-people who are good swimmers, except for the irritable pincer-billed turtles that live in the lake.

Yang Yi and two minotaurs waited on the edge of the lake.

In less than half an hour, Brak floated up from the lake with the Battle Fishmen, and at this time Braque was still clutching a handful of green aquatic plants.

"Lord, the seed grows into this plant." Braque handed over the greenery to Yang Yi.

Yang Yi took over the green plants and handed them directly to the Minotaur Tuga.

"Yes, that mysterious power is still there. As long as this force remains, the backwater oasis will be able to rejuvenate. Tuga said happily.

"It's good that it's still alive." Yang Yi said.

Although Yang Yi said that verbally, he was thinking in his heart: "If this backwater oasis is restored to its previous appearance, then I don't know how many people will come to rob it." The location of the Backwater Oasis is just south of Ratchet West Avenue, and if the fishmen of Ratchet Town hold the Backwater Oasis, it will be a passage to the mainland for Ratchet Town. If the backwater oasis were taken away again, Ratchet would be as uncomfortable as being choked. ”

Yang Yi thought about it, just like the Kokar Centaurs in the past, they didn't specifically target Ratchet Town, just plundering the passing caravans, they had already made Ratchet Town uncomfortable enough, and it would be even worse if the Backwater Oasis fell into the hands of forces bent on dealing with Ratchet Town.

Mu Xiaolan and the others went to hunt male prairie lions, and they didn't come back so soon for a while, Yang Yi returned to the place where the town fought the fishmen to build fortifications.

The battle fish-man was working hard to dig a trench, and Yang Yi frowned as he looked at the unfinished fortifications of the fish-man. He knew that these simple fortifications alone would be difficult for either the Kokar centaurs or the Horde army to stop.

"Is it true that you will occupy it and withdraw after completing the task?"

Yang Yi was unwilling to let this place so important to Ratchet Town be occupied by other forces, there was no chance before, but now that the Backwater Oasis has been destroyed, God has given the fishmen of Ratchet Town such a good opportunity, it would be a pity to give the Backwater Oasis to others.

"If you use the construction drawings of the affiliated towns, it is bound to develop slowly step by step, and when the time comes, the construction will not be able to meet and waste a valuable map of the affiliated towns, and you will lose a lot. However, it takes a lot of manpower and material resources to quickly build a stronghold with strong enough defenses to deter others. ”

Yang Yi recalled some of the posts he had seen on the forum.

The Earthlings came to the world of Azeroth as pioneers, of course, they don't want to send people all the time, and many big forces are thinking about or have already begun to try to establish their own bases in the world of Azeroth, so there are many people on the forum to discuss the cost of construction.

Yang Yi has also seen some data emperors make long lists of costs, analyzing the cost of building different bases.

"It seems that it costs 5,000 gold to build a large village-level base directly, while a town-level base needs at least 50,000 gold coins. This is only the cost of buying building materials and architectural drawings, the pioneers do not know life skills, they also need to find the aborigines to help with the construction, and various buildings will need to be used by the aborigines in the future, and this part of the gold required will not be counted at all. Therefore, at present, pioneers rarely build large villages and towns directly, and they all start by building a small village first, and then slowly open up sources and reduce expenditures to make money and continue to build. ”

"Even if the exchange price of gold coins has dropped a lot now, one gold coin can be exchanged for more than 40,000 yuan. 5,000 gold coins, that's more than 200 million yuan! Yang Yi was taken aback. rs
