Chapter 39: Defeat on all fronts

After upgrading the council hall to the Interior Hall, seven more buildable buildings in the castle space have been added, namely the second-level magic guild, fortress, material warehouse, shooter watchtower, lighthouse, library and manufacturing factory, among them, the material warehouse and the shooter watchtower have been made by Gu Feicang, and there are only five buildings left.

In addition, the Marksman Watchtower can also be upgraded to become a Marksman Watchtower, however, the condition for upgrading is that a library needs to be built, and I don't know why, and if you want to build a library, you need to have a second-level magic guild, that is, Gu Feicang must first build a second-level magic guild.

However, there is a problem, if you want to build a second-level magic guild, you need 1,000 gold coins, 5 stones, 5 wood, and 16 Force gems.

And now, the gold coins in Gu Feicang's hand are enough, with a full four thousand two hundred gold coins, ten points for wood, and five points for stone, which are enough to build a second-level magic guild, but on the contrary, the Force gem that is most in demand is also the most scarce resource for him now, only two pieces.

Force gems, worthy of being the most scarce resource in the castle space, not only can not be purchased from the market, in the same way, the dock can guide ships to moor to collect supplies, but not to mention, they can only be collected once a week, and in addition to the first time, every subsequent week, you need to consume a Force gem, which also makes the already scarce Force gems even more scarce.

Due to the restrictions of the Force Gems, the library and the second-level magic guild can only give up, and to build a fortress, it requires five thousand gold coins, twenty points of wood and twenty points of stone, which is far from enough in terms of the resources in Gu Feicang's hands now, and the next day is Monday, and there will be a refresh of troops on the new day, recruiting halberdiers and archers, which requires almost two thousand gold coins, which must be set aside, therefore, at least in these days, the fortress cannot be built.

In the end, only the lighthouse and the manufacturing factory remained, among them, the lighthouse needed two thousand gold coins and ten stones, while the manufacturing factory needed two thousand gold coins, five wood, five stones and ten Force gems.

However, now that he didn't even have a chance to stay in St. Yorktown, let alone take St. Yorktown in his pocket and transform it into a Force Gem, for a while, Gu Feicang felt that his head was big.

Just when Gu Feicang was worried, the next day, a message from the tavern gave him hope of staying in St. Yorktown.

The next day, because it was Monday, it was also the harvest day in the castle space, so Gu Feicang entered the castle space early, looked at the Internal Affairs Hall, which had added another thousand gold coins, and went directly to the halberd guard tower and the archer guard tower, recruited fourteen halberders and nine archers, and after expanding his own strength, he went to the dock and spent a Force gem to see what kind of materials he could get.

As a result, I don't know if it was because of the explosion of Gu Feicang's character, what he got this time was not a material, but a primary treasure, a magic staff.

"Mana Staff: A powerful staff made by a great magician, which contains powerful magical powers, and is a great treasure that allows the user to use the magic power in them to perform powerful magic. ”

After the test, Gu Feicang found that the magic power contained in this staff was probably equivalent to the magic power of a junior magician, about twice as much as Gu Feicang's own, with the help of this staff, Gu Feicang could completely cast nine magic spells, the only drawback was that after the magic power was exhausted, this staff had to be recharged and restored for a long time before it could continue to be used.

But even so, Gu Feicang's strength can be regarded as a great improvement, if it is not according to the magic level, he can completely challenge a junior magician, and his combat ability has at least doubled, which also gives him a stronger combat capital in the next time.

With such a good mood, Gu Feicang entered the tavern, it was still as hot as ever, Gu Feicang walked to the bar, looked at the enthusiastic bartender and said, "Bartender, give me a glass of Dream Forest." ”

"I'm sorry, Commander, I don't think it's right for you to continue drinking the Dream Forest right now, so I'll give you another drink when I'm in for a treat. As he spoke, the bartender picked up a bottle of wine, poured a glass and handed it to Gu Feicang.

In this way, Gu Feicang has heard it many times during this time, I don't know why, since the last time, the bartender has never given him the Dream Forest, I don't know if his magic power has been enhanced, so the bartender thinks he doesn't need it, or something else.

However, Gu Feicang's purpose this time was not the Forest of Dreams, during this time he ran to the tavern every day, just to get some information from the tavern and see if he could find a suitable place to stay, but it turned out that the news from the tavern was really varied, not very useful, at least not very useful now.

"Well, what's interesting lately? Gu Feicang said with his usual opening remarks.

The bartender thought for a moment, shook his head, and said, "It shouldn't be a funny thing, I heard about the orcs attacking the human world, but didn't the commander already know about it?

"Is that the only way?" Hearing the news, Gu Feicang was a little disappointed in his heart.

"Yes, but I don't think it's very appropriate for you to go to St. York, Lord Commander, this place is not safe, the orcs have already crossed the Deciduous Mountains, although St. Yorktown is remote, but it is not without orcs to go there, for the sake of safety, it is better to run a little farther." The bartender said with a determined face.

"What, you said that the orcs crossed the Deciduous Mountain Range, how is this possible? What about the North? What about the Sixteen Cities in the North? Didn't they resist?" Hearing this, Gu Feicang was suddenly shocked, the Deciduous Mountain Range, as I said before, the extended mountain range of the Endless Mountain Range, although it is not tall and steep, it has always been regarded as the last line of defense of the Cross Empire, and it is also the location of the sixteen cities in the north of the border, and for thousands of years, no orc has ever crossed here.

And now, Gu Feicang actually heard the bartender say that the orcs had crossed this last line of defense, which made him not surprised.

"Don't you know that the sixteen northern cities and the entire line have been defeated, and the orc army has crossed the Deciduous Mountains all the way to the capital of the Cross Empire?" said the bartender unhurriedly.
