Chapter 187: A Deserted Fortress

The thirty warriors seemed to have been in harmony with Bing Wan for a long time, protecting her from behind and attacking the enemy, while driving hordes of ghosts in front of her for her to launch a frenzied massacre

Ding dong

Suddenly, as one ghost after another fell in front of Bing Wan's body, a pillar of golden light fell from the sky, enveloping her plump and delicate body

Is this what she actually upgraded?

NPCs can also be upgraded?

Li Xu was stunned by the scene he saw in front of him, the player upgraded and said in the past, how can NPCs also be upgraded!

"Haha, after half a year of stuffiness in Tianmeng City, I finally upgraded!" Bingwan laughed excitedly, and the voice came from a distance.

"Congratulations to Sister Bingwan's strength improvement." Bing Xue Xin replied with a smile.

"Thank you, Miss." Bingwan smiled with satisfaction and continued to wield the dagger to kill monsters one by one

"I'm really envious, I didn't expect her to be promoted to the rank of captain, but it's a pity that I will never have a chance." Wei Cheng said gloomily.

"What is the rank of lieutenant, the rank?" Li Xu asked puzzled.

"Yes, our soldiers are judged by the number of kills, she and I are both at the rank of captain of a thousand commanders, but I didn't expect that the number of kills is thousands more than mine." Wei Cheng said with a sigh.

"I see, big brother, NPC soldiers are upgraded by the number of kills in battle, unlike us." Drama is like life, and suddenly enlightenment.

"If the NPCs can be upgraded, these people will be our most effective helpers in the future." Li Xu said with a smile.

He looked into the distance and noticed that the name on the top of Bingwan's head seemed to have changed somewhat.

Captain Blizzard: Bingwan

Rating: 65

Combat Class: Bright Ranger [Second Turn]

Life Occupation: Seamstress [Advanced], Textile [Advanced]

Attribute:???

was originally the title of the commander of the Flying Snow Army, but now she has become the captain of the Flying Snow Army, and her level has also jumped from level 60 to level 65!

I go, it's hard to upgrade NPCs, but once you upgrade, it's a leap forward, and various attributes are greatly enhanced

Li Xu looked at Bingwan's upgraded new name, and suddenly sighed in his heart.

Because he found that the attack power of the upgraded female assassin had skyrocketed by more than half compared to just now, and the ghost monsters he killed could not resist it.

"Miss, you can come here." Bingwan said with a smile.

"I'm coming." Ice and Snow Heart nodded and walked out of the canyon first

Wherever the beautiful fairy went, the monsters retreated in fright, and a wide passage appeared in an instant.

Li Xu followed behind her and led the long line to the other side of the canyon

After Bing Wan waited for everyone to pass by, she also led thirty soldiers to protect the back of the team and began this exploration journey.

With Wei Cheng leading the way, Li Xu saved the trouble of exploring the map, watching the canyons around him being crossed, and countless monsters of all kinds scattered and fled.

For more than an hour, everyone shuttled through the secluded canyon, and if it weren't for the map system for the players to keep track of the places they had visited, they probably wouldn't have been able to find their way back.

It's just that the canyon passes here are too cumbersome, and there are twists and turns everywhere, and players don't know which map they will lead to if they choose the wrong pass

After rushing forward quickly for so long, bypassing countless canyons and basins, when Li Xu and his three teammates had long lost their sense of orientation, Wei Cheng and Bing Xuexin stood at the mouth of a canyon and stopped.

"Master, come and see, there is Smoke Shadow Peak in front of you." Wei Cheng greeted.

"Fighting against fate, that's where the post town is located, I've seen it." Bing Xuexin said with a smile.

Li Xu and his teammates hurriedly rushed to the front, and on the opposite side of the Grand Canyon in front of him, there was a high peak

And strangely, the peak was shrouded in a black mist, and it was not possible to see what was going on on the mountain, but at the foot of the mountain there was a wall that surrounded half of the mountain.

As for the situation on the city wall, it was shrouded in black mist, and it was impossible to see what was going on inside.

"This is Smoke Shadow Peak?" Li Xu asked suspiciously.

"Yes, Yanying Peak is shrouded in black smoke all year round, hence the name, the post city is built at the foot of the mountain by the mountain, like the imperial city of the human race, there are two city walls to protect, even if the enemy attacks, there are two security defenses, and there is a large open space on the mountain, which can be used to hoard supplies and troops." Wei Cheng introduced.

"Then let's go and have a look." Li Xu said with a smile.

"Okay, master come with me, because this is the only way for our Storm Legion to go to Tianmeng City, no enemy dares to appear here." Wei Cheng smiled and strode forward.

"Sister Bingwan, bring your people to protect you." Li Xu didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly shouted loudly.

"Understood." Bingwan immediately caught up from behind, leading the soldiers of the Flying Snow Army to escort Wei Cheng, guarding into this empty Grand Canyon.

After walking into the canyon, Li Xu saw the special terrain here clearly.

The location of Smoke Shadow Peak was actually at the center of the canyon, like a large pillar in the valley, incorporating all the surrounding areas into the defensive area.

"This place is really nice, no matter where the enemy appears from, you can see it from the mountain peak, and make arrangements early." The drama is like life, and he exclaimed.

"Yes, if you hide on the mountain peak, you don't have to be afraid of any enemies." Hikohiko laughed.

As everyone walked into this mountain, which is more than 200 meters high, the situation at the foot of the mountain became clear

A circle of dilapidated black castle towers encircled the foot of the mountain, enclosing the entire peak, but there was not a single building in the city, and there were ruins and broken walls everywhere, as if it had been plundered by the enemy.

"This outer city has often been breached by the orc legions before, so it will be like this, but if you look at it, there is also a castle tower there." Wei Cheng introduced.

Li Xu looked in the direction of his finger, and through the thin black smoke, he saw that on the smooth stone wall peak, on the peak about fifty meters above the ground, there was indeed a black city tower, which was still built around the mountain

On the mountain, you can see the broken stone buildings, which are still standing after years of wind and rain and a hundred battles

"This is what we call a small post town, and the army on the road usually chooses to rest here for the night before setting out." Wei Cheng said with a smile.

"This is indeed a great place!" Li Xu said excitedly.

At this moment, he had already seen that at the foot of Yanying Peak, there were only a few narrow mountain roads that could lead to the cities of the small post town, and these passages were all stone stairs carved out of the cliffs, which were not only narrow but also steep, not suitable for a large army to attack the city.

Except for this steep trail, the peaks are covered with slippery cliffs that are impossible to climb at all.

The situation in front of him made Li Xu understand that this place, as Wei Cheng said, was an excellent defensive place that could defend against the attacks of tens of thousands of troops with only a few dozen people!

It's a pity that this fortress, which once helped the human race resist countless foreign invasions, has now been abandoned like this.

"Master, the terrain here is very steep, and the outer city can usually be stationed with legions, and once the enemy attacks, you can quickly retreat to the inner city, which is enough to ensure safety and worry. But," Wei Cheng said.

"But what?" Li Xu asked.

"As you can see, the city is in ruins, and it's very difficult to restore it without a lot of money and materials, and most importantly, we need a lot of architects to do it." Wei Cheng said.

"That's a problem, let's see what's going on in the city first." Li Xu nodded, followed behind him, and led the team towards the broken city

The black city wall at the foot of the mountain, a section of the castle tower falls every few meters.

Even if it is a city tower that has not collapsed, there are holes exposed on it, and you can see the environment in the city through the holes, as for the city gate, it has long been gone, and only an empty hole remains.

Li Xu led people to walk into the city without passing through the city gate, and they could enter the city through the gap in the collapsed city wall.

The situation inside the city is even more alarming, there is rubble and broken walls everywhere, and not a single intact building can be found.

"Oh my God, this is a ruin, you can't call it a city." Yan Yanjiao exclaimed.

"Yes, big brother, if such a city is renovated, it will cost as much gold as a new city." Xiao Tongtong said.

"You can't say that, if you build a city elsewhere, how can you have such good terrain." The drama is like life, and he laughs.

"Indeed, the most important thing in building a city is the topography, and the terrain here is impeccable." Li Xu looked around and said thoughtfully.

He hadn't built a city in troubled times, and he didn't know how much it would cost to build a city, but he knew in his heart that the cost was definitely astronomical

But it's not okay to have money, Wei Cheng has already reminded that what is most needed to build a city is the life profession of architects, without them and sufficient funds and materials, it is a pipe dream to build a city.

"Wei Cheng, you help me calculate how many gold coins and materials are needed to build a city here, and how many architects are needed." Li Xu asked.

"Master, do you really plan to fix this place?" Wei Cheng asked in surprise.

"Of course, I am now wanted by the Terran camp, the end of the world is so big that there is nowhere to stay, and for your safety, I must do my best to find a safe place to stay." Li Xu said.

"Understood, don't worry, master, I will do my best to help you calculate the materials you need." Wei Cheng nodded.

"There are two options, I have to know in detail how much money it will cost to restore all of them, and how much it will cost to restore the inner city as a temporary hiding place." Li Xu said.

"Understood, master." Wei Cheng replied respectfully.

Walk with a group through the ruins, looking at the large complex of buildings composed of countless broken walls, once upon a time, this was also a bustling city

After all, this is a level-type city in the middle of the two maps of Tianmeng City and Storm Abyss, and if there is no war, it must be very prosperous.

Li Xu walked through the outer city, gradually walked to the foot of the mountain, looked up at the high needs, the circle of city towers built on the mountain, the situation in the inner city was slightly better than the outer city, at least the city wall here was not so dilapidated.

"Let's go into the inner city." Li Xu said with a smile.

Just as he was about to lead the people to the stone stairs in the mountains, he suddenly heard the sound of breaking the air above his head, and there were arrows shooting from the top of the tower

"Fight against fate, be careful!" Ice Heart hurriedly blocked in front of him, and with a wave of his arm, the blue light on the ice staff shone, and a large snowflake protected everyone's heads.
