William and Mary chased after them from behind, and Xia He felt it, so he slowed down and waited for them to catch up before he said, "Do you believe in the spirit of the city-state?"

"I originally believed it, but after seeing it more, I didn't believe it very much. Mary replied to Xia He.

"My lord, why did you kill them?" William couldn't help but ask, he didn't have any sympathy for those two supernatural beings, but he didn't quite know why the Duke was so ruthless.

"Hmmm......"

Xia He groaned, the slightest emotion in his heart calmed down, and he asked, "In the past two days, you still remember the gods and common sense that I talked to you, right?"

"Remember, this creature needs the power of faith. ”

"God, there is a position, suppose, there is a position of God, it is called the spirit of the city-state, then, those two guys, even if they are believers in this god. But their interpretation of faith is tantamount to heresy. Heresies, more hateful than infidels. ”

"So, in the hearts of adults, there is also a spirit of a city-state?" Mary said curiously.

"Of course not, the spirit of the city-state is more primitive, and I just don't like the attitude of those two guys towards faith. ”

William and Mary quickened their pace and kept up with Xia He.

"Not any faith, any way of faith, is worthy of respect. The difference between human beings and animals is that human beings have faith, but those who defile their faith are, in my eyes, the same as the unbelievers. ”

"Your Excellency, do you hate the untrustworthy?" asked William cautiously.

"I just hate people who put on makeup. There have never been gods in this world, and the unbelievers are the majority, so what's there to hate about it?"

Xia He's subordinates began to count civilians and choose the site of the factory. In addition to the plantation, there must also be a small alchemy workshop. The size of this town is not small, but the population is not large, less than 10,000 people. During the attack, the damage was still relatively serious, and there were many places that needed to be rebuilt.

Xia He was not polite at all, and the mages of Snowvis were all mobilized by him to rebuild the town.

The enemy is knowable, but it is only an intelligent mechanical life, and the power of control does not exceed Xia He's expectations. So the city defense didn't have to be changed much. Repair the lower city wall and strengthen the fire points. It is also necessary to carry out air defense against the aircraft of mechanical life. Then at the back of town, rebuild an office.

A magical air defense device is installed here, and the nearby open space happens to be parked with electric flying battleships, as well as the six-pointed star airship in Xiahe.

The magicians of Snowvis have complaints about Xia He's orders, and they will never do such a crude thing under the county king. But no one dares to show it, and the blood mage doesn't care who you are or whose cronies you are. If you can't carry out his orders, wait for death.

Fortunately, the construction itself also has merit to be gained, less is less, but there is no risk at all.

The electric warship patrolled into the distance, and soon Xia He received ground intelligence within a radius of hundreds of miles, and there was no longer a large stronghold of intelligent mechanical life here, which was the kind of fortress that had atomic weapons and could send a large number of robots and flying weapons.

Just when Xia He felt that it was safe for the time being, the electric warship found a large number of mech troops in the east and was approaching in this direction.

The flying battleship attacked, but was nearly knocked down by the mechanical army on the ground. The Mech Legion also released the flying machine, and if it weren't for the slightly slower speed, the two electric warships would almost not be able to come back.

Xia He's side has not stabilized, and he has to face the attack of the mechanical legion, and he is also depressed.

Fortunately, if the mechanical legion is wiped out, another batch of materials will be recorded.

Xia He will not be able to defeat it, and the technology of the mechanical legion is not as strong as the mechanical life that invaded the main world, and it can even be said that it is far behind. It's very powerful to deal with ordinary people, but Xia He's own more than 2,000 people are professionals, plus a large number of professionals in Snowvis's army, if it is just a ground battle, it is an absolute advantage.

Because of the magician, Xia He's one of the Divine Fire Crows can burn a large number of mechanical life.

Xia He didn't bother to arrange any tactics, so he asked the epic mages on Snowvis's side to attack together with the flying battleship, focusing on the heavy weapons of the mechanical legion. As long as the opponent has no heavy weapons, if they are close to the town, they will be covered by the artillery fire in the town, and the number of robots that can rush over will not be too large.

He assigned men to the town to rebuild.

Fortunately, the town's power generation facilities have been specially preserved, deep underground. However, the water supply system was badly damaged, not to mention planting, and even the soldiers' drinking water became a problem.

The mages had no choice but to create water artificially and start building from the rocky hill behind the town.

Xia He sent people to renovate the electric cannon, hoping that this thing could attack targets sixty miles away. This thing was originally designed to be 120 miles, but it hasn't been maintained for many years, and it's good that it can still be used.

In a square north of the town, there is a group of soldiers, training civilians.

A woman in her fifties looked sad and took advantage of the rest to ask the junior officer in charge: "Is this commander going to war? What can people like us do?"

"It's going to be a war, but I don't need you. ”

"What's the fuss about?" muttered a man in his thirties.

"Because if there is a fight, you will have a little ability to save your life, and if you retreat in the shelter, even if a robot rushes in, everyone can attack them with electromagnetic guns together, and you can paralyze them. ”

"Will you give us guns?" said a young man in surprise. In the past, when the Anomalies ruled, it was a felony for civilians to carry firearms, and they were punishable by death at sight.

"Isn't that strange? It's not a heavy weapon. The low-ranking officer was also stunned by the question, in the Overworld, it is basically not forbidden for civilians to have any weapons, scrolls and such things, as long as you have money, you can buy them.

The reason for restricting civilians from having better weapons is that they don't have the money.

The price at which the scroll was sold to the outside world was not the price of the exchange between Xia He and Snowvis, and many nobles were reluctant to use it.

"Can we become soldiers in the future?" asked a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy.

The officer glanced at his fairly sturdy figure and said, "As a soldier, you will face death every day, what's so good?"

"My sister was killed by a machine and I want revenge. "The boy is stubborn.

"Sooner or later, the machine will be wiped out, whether you are a soldier or not. ”

"I'm going to finish off those metal mongrels with my own hands!"

The officer's face was kind, and he said, "What can you do when you become a soldier? All you can do is kill a few robots, which are just a part of thousands of machines." You'll also become a part of the army, which will cost you a lot. ”

"But, the instructor ......"

"You want to ask why we are soldiers?"

"Yes, I think you ...... Passionate. It seems that being a soldier is not a hard job. ”

"Because I'm poor, if I'm not a soldier, how can I support myself?" the officer smiled: "You are different, the construction of the factory here requires your labor." With so many human armies and a huge amount of food, you will have a good life for a long time. ”

The young man wanted to say something, but the officer said: "If you have an idea, it is better to do a good job in front of you, train well, and if the big man above sees it, it is possible to let you enter the army." ”

The boy was a little disappointed, but he still bit his lip and nodded, "I'll try." ”

In the sky, suddenly a white light, in the depths of space, a huge metal ball fell vertically, the surface of this thing was still burning, and rushed directly to the town.

In the town, a divine fire crow rose into the sky, leaning on its back, and the third foot of its abdomen struggled to grasp, and the metal ball was taken in a crooked direction.

Almost all magicians who were over level ten saw this scene and were shocked in their hearts.

The speed of the fire crow was amazingly fast, almost catching up with the electric magic, as if the fire crow had activated a flashing skill, and swooped directly into the air. How could such an attack be dodged?

The ball was crooked by the Divine Fire Flying Crow and smashed into the wilderness, and a mushroom cloud more than 100 meters high flew up, still slowly expanding.

Xia He frowned, space-based weapons?

This thing is quite troublesome, because the attack speed is too fast, and there may be nothing else on the metal ball, just relying purely on gravity impact, it can cause devastating damage to the town.

Such an attack can only be defended against by at least a magician of the epic realm.

Ordinary great magicians, before they had time to react, the thing had already smashed on their heads. However, in a food base, it is normal to leave an epic mage.

Intelligent mechanical life is not so easy to deal with, Xia He really wants to go to the starry sky to see what kind of weapon is flying outside. But this kind of thing has to be done with Snowvis, and if you go alone, God knows what the risks will be.

It's better to make something that can fly into the stars, not too impulsive.

Because it is not too easy for two people who have just been promoted to legends to find weapons of mechanical life outside the Gangqi layer of a world. Time-consuming, laborious, and risky.

If the Starry Sky Worm is an adult, it can swallow the weapon in one gulp.

Xia He sighed, so he summoned the mages over again, threw the drawings to everyone, and asked them to arrange a magic array covering the entire town. Originally, Xia He didn't want to do this, but with the emergence of space-based weapons, he had to increase his investment.

Xia He is tired of such a long war, because this is Snowvis's war and does not belong to him.

Snowvis's army went out of the town to meet the mechanical army, and Xia He started a new round of construction in the town. The mechanical legion did not rush and fight, and the battle did not know how long it would take. In the wilderness, all kinds of mutated creatures were also frightened by the mechanical legion to flee, and the howls in the distance could not be heard in the town.

Xia He stood in the underground workshop, and the shelves in front of him were more than ten meters high, layer by layer, with a gap of two meters. The faint glare of light fell, and green seedlings broke through the silk-mesh covered soil.
