243.Chapter 243: Go Your Own Way
A group of dead friends reunited after a long absence, hugging each other, laughing and excited
"Brother Xu, your city doesn't seem to be large-scale." The horse was still curious about the size of the inner city, and asked suspiciously.
"You stupid, you don't even know how to open the big map and take a look." Zhang Xiaolei said with a smile.
"Ahh
I saw that on the big map, their location was just the inner ring of two circular cities, and there was a wider urban space outside.
It's just that the map of the outer city shown on the map is full of shocking red-colored building areas, which makes them feel extremely puzzled.
"Xuzi, why haven't you finished repairing the city, is there a problem with the funds?" Zhang Xiaolei asked suspiciously.
"Funding is only one aspect of the problem, and the most important thing is that I don't have enough strength to protect the city, so I don't dare to repair the outer city for the time being." Li Xu replied with a smile.
"Let's go, take us up to the castle tower and have a look." Zhang Xiaolei said excitedly.
"Let's take a look." The die-hard friends were thrilled.
Following behind Li Xu, looking at the two NPC beauties suspiciously, a group of people couldn't ask questions directly, so they could only follow him all the way to the city tower.
Twenty soldiers of the Flying Snow Army saluted respectfully to Li Xu, and retreated to the side one after another, continuing to guard the situation outside.
"Yes, now there are NPC warriors to help you defend the city." Zhang Xiaolei exclaimed.
"But the number is a little less, otherwise no one can take this city." Nangong Qiu nodded.
The crowd stood on the high inner wall, and the situation outside was unobstructed
In addition to the restoration of the outer city wall, the city is like a garbage dump, with scattered stones and broken trees everywhere, and there is not a single complete building in sight.
In the distance, dozens of black dots were patrolling back and forth on the outer city wall, which immediately attracted the attention of the dead friends.
"You still have NPC soldiers in the outer city to defend you?" Zhang Xiaolei asked in surprise.
"That's not my people, they're just volunteering to help," Li Xu smiled and told everyone the identity of the Storm Knights.
"I'll go, Xuzi, your task is terrible, if you continue to do this, I don't know what will happen later." Rice Bucket exclaimed.
"Xuzi is lucky, this time he has entered the troubled times and has many adventures." Zhang Xiaolei sighed.
"Brother Xu, why don't I follow you." The horse said with a smile.
"Die, I don't dare to ask for it if you dare to come." Li Xu scolded with a smile and looked at Zhang Xiaolei
"Xuzi, you don't have to look at me, now you are more short of manpower here than me, if you need it, just ask, ask for money and people, brother will give full support." Zhang Xiaolei said.
Curious to come here, he originally wanted to see the current situation of the dead friend, but he didn't expect the scale of this gunpowder city to surprise him
What the Overlord Legion has invested countless financial and material resources to do, I didn't expect that the sworn party would already have a fantastic foundation on its own
This is indeed an unbelievable thing for Zhang Xiaolei, and now that the dead party has got the precious elixir formula in his hands, it is equivalent to the right time and place, and it depends on whether the follow-up development is strong.
"Thanks to the cannon, I'm not safe here now, and you must know better than me about the affairs of the four major legions." Li Xu said with a deep groan.
"Li Xu, you don't have to worry too much, between us and the four major legions, sooner or later there will be a big battle within the scope of Tianmeng City, if you need it, we will definitely do our best to help." Nangong Qiu said.
"Yes, Li Xu, our classmates, we will be on your side if we say anything." Wangu nodded.
"Thank you." Li Xu thanked.
"Xuzi, the terrain here is indeed not very safe, the four major legions are developing in full force, once their level reaches level 38 or above, you will be exposed here sooner or later." Zhang Xiaolei said.
"I'm already mentally prepared for this, so I'm currently thinking about putting the experience pill into the market as much as possible, and then recruiting troops when I have enough funds, and defending the city no matter what." Li Xu nodded.
"Brother Xu, I think the situation is enough, the four legions are all old guilds, and the accumulated heritage is not something we can fight against in three or five days, including the Overlord Legion, Sister Lan is now trying to avoid confrontation with those old legions." The horse said.
"Yes, they are numerous, they have plenty of experience in large-scale battles, especially the tactics of seizing cities, and we can't compete with them at this stage." Zhang Xiaolei said.
"Don't worry, everyone, you have also seen the terrain of this city, if the outer city can't be defended, I can still defend the inner city, anyway, I won't let them succeed lightly." Li Xu said with a smile.
"But Xuzi, the terrain of your city is too special, just like a bottle stopper locking Cangmang Mountain inside, if the four major legions want to continue to develop, this city will definitely be inevitable in the future, will you have so much time and money to compete with them at that time?" Zhang Xiaolei asked suspiciously.
"But if you don't compete, you can't help it, you come with me." Li Xu said.
With a group of dead friends and two beautiful women with doubts, the group walked to the foot of the mountain in the city
The black stone peak stood in front of everyone, Li Xu took out the gold shovel, inserted it into the stone with a ding, and brought out a long stone core from it
"Look at it, this city is not only special in terms of topography, but the most important thing is this thing." Li Xu said.
"This is"
Everyone squatted down, gathered together, and looked at the cylindrical stone in front of them in amazement
I saw that behind the half-meter-long black stone shell, there was a long strip of earthy yellow stones, and the system introduction displayed on it immediately surprised a group of people
"I'll go, it's actually a vein!" The horse exclaimed.
"What the sulfonite veins are used for, it's not very clear from above." Rice Bucket asked puzzled.
"Are you stupid, all the things you learned in school have been returned to the teacher?" Li Xu said with a smile.
"Is this thing, this thing, the ore from which gunpowder is made?" Zhang Xiaolei asked suspiciously.
"The answer is correct, if you look at the situation in the real world, this sulfonite mine is equivalent to saltpeter, if the game designer intentionally designed this special material, it can be seen that there will be more large-scale equipment that we can't think of in the future, and these ores will be needed as raw materials." Li Xu said the guess in his heart.
"If that's the case, this vein is a bunch of treasures, and with this mountain peak so big, the amount of sulfonite stored in it will be a staggering number." Zhang Xiaolei said excitedly.
"Li Xu, I understand what you think, the importance of the city is not to be talked about for the time being, but these ores must also be protected." Nangong Qiu said with shining eyes.
"Xuzi, you say, if you need any help, I will not hesitate, as long as I can help you defend this city." Zhang Xiaolei stood up and said excitedly.
"Cannon, I'm afraid you can't do anything about this, once I start fighting with the four major legions, your sister Lan is willing to stand up for me?" Li Xu smiled faintly.
"Ah" Zhang Xiaolei opened his mouth wide, speechless by what he said
Xia Lan's mind is very meticulous, this time, in order to lead the rapid development of the Overlord Legion, he has endured not to conflict with the four major legions, and even temporarily moved the development route from the north of the city of the main mission of the human race to the direction of the west of the city, just unwilling to clash with these big legions prematurely.
This beautiful woman at the helm understands in her heart that the rise of the Overlord Legion has attracted the attention of those old guilds, and now she has abandoned her grievances and united in a very dangerous situation
At present, the commanders of the old guilds are actually waiting for an opportunity, that is, the Overlord Legion will take the lead in provoking disputes, and then gather all their forces to fight a decisive battle with them, and eliminate this force that threatens their survival as soon as possible.
But because they were afraid of the family forces behind these rich young ladies and young ladies, they didn't dare to take the initiative to find trouble, so they could only endure it for the time being.
Xia Lan's strategy of peaceful development is extremely effective, and the Overlord Legion in Tianmeng City is developing rapidly
On the territory of the beast clan, Liu Shaoqiang is used to stirring up trouble, and he has already torn his face with the old guild, and the private territory that he finally got was destroyed
Of course, this kid was not willing to suffer, and gathered all his forces to retaliate and robbed the two guild private cities in a row, but he didn't dare to occupy and develop, so he simply destroyed them all, and no one could get them
After repeated battles, the beast camp was defeated, and now the two major forces have to hide even for leveling, for fear of being attacked by the other party.
In this way, the player development of the beast clan camp is far lower than the development status quo of the two major camps of the human race and the demon race, so that Xia Lan has a head start in the battle for the helm within the alliance.
In this case, let Xia Lan help Li Xu confront the four major legions head-on, and it was still a low level, Zhang Xiaolei was not sure at all in his heart.
"I'm just joking, don't be embarrassed by the cannons, I have my own way to protect the city." Li Xu looked at his expression and knew the general situation, so he smiled and persuaded him.
"Xuzi, don't worry, we are brothers, we will definitely help you if we can help you, even if Sister Lan doesn't agree." Zhang Xiaolei said helplessly.
"I'll talk about this later, I'll take you to see the zuò workshop, and by the way, let's talk about this cooperation plan carefully." Li Xu smiled and waved his hand, and walked towards the city with a group of people
Along the way, the dead friends curiously asked about the two beauties, Bing Xuexin and Xiaolu, and Li Xu did not hide it, so he told them in detail about being wanted by the royal family of the Terran this time.
Bursts of exclamations continued to sound, and everyone couldn't help but sigh, Xuzi's product is really good at causing trouble
On the contrary, Nangong Qiu looked at the situation of the workshop and the city from the side, and his eyes flashed with brilliance
A group of die-hard friends gathered in the Gunpowder City, looking at the situation here, listening to Li Xu and Zhang Xiaolei discussing cooperative development matters, and time passed quickly unconsciously.
"Xuzi, we have to go back, there is no one in command of the legion now, I will talk to Sister Lan about your affairs, and the plan of cooperation will be answered to you as much as possible." Zhang Xiaolei said with a smile.
"Well, wait for your good news, you can come here anytime you have time." Li Xu nodded.
"It's a pity, you stubborn temper, if only our brothers could be together." Zhang Xiaolei sighed.
"I wouldn't have joined you before, and now I won't, I'm going to take my own path." Li Xu said firmly.
"I can't say you, you can do whatever you want." Zhang Xiaolei shook his head helplessly, and a group of people waved goodbye
