318.Chapter 318: Fragments of Civilization, Common Ancestor

The task of building Elson City is cumbersome and time-consuming, which is not necessary for Roddy, who is currently severely understaffed, but a glance at the names of these tasks can reveal a lot of information from them.

In any case, "Elson City" can be called the biggest gain of Roddy since he came to this world, and it is also the operation that he has won the most trophies... And in such a big city, what can be given to Roddy is certainly not just as simple as the title of "Elson City Lord".

Roddy opened the [City Construction Column] unique to the "City Lord" and read all the data about the city.

In the game, each city has a demarcated "city level", and the higher the level, the stronger the city's prosperity and defense capabilities. For example, the largest "Holier City" in Evta's impression is a moderately prosperous city marked at level 7, while the more developed cities of the Karen Kingdom are mostly concentrated in the southern part of the kingdom, among which the "Temple" where the "Rossicrucus" is located and the royal royal city are the highest level, rated at level 14.

Because of such a reference standard, when Roddy saw the number of the [City Construction Bar], his heartbeat suddenly doubled...

Because the grade marked above is "17".

However, at the end of this level, a gray text is displayed: "In the city is deserted, the actual level is level 4".

The so-called "desertion" is naturally due to the fact that the city at this time is uninhabited and has no productivity to speak of. However, "Level 17" is obviously the level of this city - Roddy licked his lips, trying to hide the excitement in his heart, but he secretly made up his mind to build it into the most powerful city in the kingdom!

The city view bar showed Elson City in front of Roddy in a three-dimensional perspective, allowing him to carefully produce the detailed data of all the buildings, but when he swept his eyes over the perspective, Roddy found that many buildings were red throughout, and after clicking on the view, he found that these buildings were written with conditions such as "Population Standard Required", "Charging Hedron Standard Required" and so on, and they were currently in an "unusable" state.

This may be the price of downgrading a 17-level city to a 4-level city.

Knowing that pie doesn't fall from the sky, Roddy exhaled and began to look at the "outer city" area—the residential area, the trade area, the small square, the shops, the opera house, etc., were marked in green as "usable", and at the north and south ends of the outer city, there were two symmetrical red areas: "barracks area".

Clicking on the barracks, Roddy could see the schoolyards, dormitories, and a series of infrastructure that could train the army, and after checking the instructions, he found that it could train 2,000 soldiers at the same time!

This is definitely an incredible thing, because in this era, there is no such thing as a "military camp" for human beings: lords lead troops to fight, and they have always asked subordinate knights to recruit soldiers from their own mines, such a source of strength is uneven, the equipment is poor, and it is no problem to fight a good fight, but it is simply unable to cope with high-intensity large-scale battles.

Once there is a "military camp", Luo Di can quickly train high-quality troops in large quantities, and have more confidence to deal with strong enemies.

This should be considered a windfall, but what surprised Roddy even more was the "military factory" next to the barracks, which was also marked in red!

This is completely different from the "blacksmith shop" that is currently common in human beings, and can even be called a real "factory" - because of the charging magic crystal as an energy source, the production technology of the high elves has been in the "semi-mechanized" stage, and even derived a primary assembly line production model, and the efficiency and quality have completely surpassed the workshop-style blacksmith shop!

Roddy looked at the instructions, as long as the "40 workers" of "400 charged crystals" are met, and enough ore is ready, it can be put into production at any time!

Roddy sees a large list of ordnance crafting items in the "Arsenal" option, and discovers that as long as there is a recipe, it is possible to make equipment below "Finesse"... And the list of craftable equipment at the bottom of several of them shocked him even more...

That's a huge, lost siege machine!

However, looking at the astronomical list of materials for these ordnance, Roddy still shook his head and stopped his obscenity, and turned his gaze to the inner city.

He knew that these things were too far away from him at this time, but he casually glanced at the dense red letters of "Inner City", and he still couldn't suppress the urge to swallow his saliva-

There are seven "Arcane Research Rooms" of different categories, three "Weapons Research and Development Rooms", a large number of "granaries" filled with food seeds, four large "Civilian Libraries", a "Royal Library", various "museums", "altars", "arbitration courts", "Arcane Academy"...

These names are complex and have different meanings, but in Roddy's eyes, they all represent one word: technology.

This is the crystallization of the technology of the High Elf civilization... Mastering them will inevitably mean an all-round improvement in productivity, competitiveness and combat effectiveness!

Roddy finally realized how amazing the harvest was this time, where is this city? This is simply a microcosm of the high elf civilization!

However, except for low-level buildings such as "granaries" that are open, the rest of the buildings basically have extremely high resource requirements - Roddy previously thought that the city of Elson would need at least 4,500 "Charged Crystals" to activate the basic defensive circle, but now it seems that if you want to activate all the buildings, I am afraid that 45,000 "Charging Crystals" can be used!

"It's really a lot of money..."

For ordinary people, this is definitely a suffocating astronomical amount, but Luo Di, as a modern person, quickly accepted this fact: this is the same as doing business, the profit and loss of a small clothing store may only be hundreds of thousands of yuan a year, but a central enterprise bank has at least hundreds of billions of funds - Elson City is not a low-level knight's fief, it is a real fortress-level city that can live tens of thousands of people!

Roddy tried to take his eyes off the building descriptions, and then closed the [City View Bar], slowly calming the agitated mood.

He was well aware that to fully restore the city to its 17th peak level would be a vast and difficult undertaking for anyone, and most importantly... At present, he has not mastered the manufacturing technology of "charged spar".

Without a "charged hedron", it means that Elson City will not be worth one percent.

Always melancholy after the surprise, Roddy looked at the city in the dark with some distraction, but he understood... I'm afraid I'll have to go to Mogra Village.

The night was getting deeper, but Camilla was not sleepy at all.

My mind was filled with all kinds of thoughts, and the panic in my heart never disappeared... Until now, she couldn't accept the fact that she would never be able to leave Elson City again.

She didn't have the heart to think about what the "Khadgar's Blessing" was, and Camilla, who had studied the arcane arts, didn't even think about the difference between the arcane arts she mastered and the ones before - she only knew that she was now a "prisoner".

Confined here, Camilla doesn't even know where to start with the "struggle", no matter how unwilling she is in her heart, she only has a deep sense of powerlessness.

Do you really want to compromise with Roddy? What should Nephi do? Do you really want to ask him?

But Nefi is all he has, and Roddy... Is it worth entrusting?

Standing up unconsciously, Camilla slowly moved her somewhat stiff body, walked to the windowsill of the bedroom and took a deep breath, trying to relax the tense nerves.

At this time, she could clearly see the city of Elson at night—in the eyes of ordinary people, it was just a blurred line outlined in the darkness, but in Camilla's vision, it was all as clear as day.

She could see the vapor condensed on the swords of the patrol guards, and she could hear the conversation on the sentry posts... Sight and hearing have been infinitely magnified in Elson City, and in the face of such a scene, Camilla even came up with a ridiculous idea: if her power is extremely strong in Elson City, can she finally be called the "God of Elson"?

She didn't know about Turing's plot to become a god, and the idea at this time was just a random whim after mastering more power - Camilla had no interest in becoming such a "god", and at this time, she was more worried about how to regain "freedom".

Thinking like this in her heart, Camila suddenly frowned... Because she noticed that someone was staring at her.

The eyes were found for the first time, and Camila and Nata's eyes were facing each other.

Twenty meters away, Nata, who was standing on the roof of the adjacent mansion, stared for a second and then calmly looked away, continuing to look at the Pachar Tower in the distance.

In the past three months, Akasha has become thin and changed due to worry, but Nata looks the same as before... It's just that no one knows what kind of crazy training she's been doing during this time - after several battles, Nata knows the huge gap in strength between herself and Roddy, so during this time, she has practiced archery in an almost masochistic way...

She worked desperately just so that she could see Roddy again... Be able to have enough strength to help kill the enemy.

She was not good at expressing herself, so she didn't even say a word of greeting after Roddy returned safely.

It was only when night fell again that she realized that she had become accustomed to climbing to the top of the building, and habitually looking at Pachar's Magic Tower—

Because every night for the past three months, Nata has spent it in the cold wind with such expectations.

Now that I'm worried, I can't get used to it, but Nata didn't expect to meet Camilla here - she wasn't interested in chatting with each other, and after turning her eyes, she continued to look into the distance...

"If memory serves, you're... Nata?"

An unexpected greeting came, and Nata turned her head to look over, but she didn't speak, but there was a little doubt in her eyes.

"If I'm not mistaken, you're a wood elf, right?"

Nata remained silent, but her brow furrowed slightly.

After all, there is a generation gap between the identity of the wood elves and humans, and she doesn't understand why Camilla wants to emphasize this.

Her silence made the atmosphere a little awkward, but Camila didn't seem to care, and just continued to herself: "My name is Camila, speaking of... We may have some relationships that are not far off. ”

Nata still didn't respond, which made Camilla's self-introduction very cold - in desperation, Camilla paused and said softly: "I'm a descendant of the High Elves, I want to... You and I should share a common ancestor. ”

This sentence finally made Nata's indifferent expression change slightly, she squinted slightly, stared at Camilla, and whispered, "I have something to say." ”
