Chapter 730: Lightning Strike

"Tell me about it. Xia He doesn't like the people who sell Guanzi, and he doesn't touch the wooden box.

Chang Quinoa smiled: "The first thing, of course, is that my lord sent down the divine grace to thank you for the transaction between you and the temple. Inside this box is the temple's thanks, and I ask you to accept it. ”

"Then I'll take it. "Xia He heard that it was a thank you transaction, and he made a detour in the middle, and it was not a contribution to the temple, so he was willing to take it.

The wooden box opened, and there was a quaint scroll inside, the color was sallow, and the god pattern on it was a little intermittent, it should have been of a very high level before, but now it only has legendary quality. It's an antiquity, and even if it's damaged, the breath doesn't leak out at all.

"Inside, a sleeping Dawn Giant has been sealed, which is already very weak, but it is still close...... The power of the demigods. You can summon it once, and the scroll will no longer be usable. ”

"Thanks, what's the second thing?"

Chang Quinoa took a map, spread it out, and said, "I want to build a second large temple in this location." Need your help. The third thing has to do with this. ”

"Let's talk about it together. ”

"You see, these two locations are a little close, less than a hundred miles, and further east, they will go deep into the mainland. It's higher than the city of the Emperor of the Arcane Empire. ”

Xia He looked at the map, these two locations, there were really no mountains in front of them, and the whole looked like two small nests sunken in the mountains.

"You occupy one, the temple stands one, and until the emperor of the Arcane Empire gives the order to attack, we are not enemies of each other, and we can support each other. The temple has enough troops, but not enough equipment, and I want you to provide the logistics. ”

"How can you count on me?" said Xia He smiled.

"Not counting on you, it's business anyway, and you may need to expend a lot of resources to equip us. ”

"Okay, I agree. Xia He was crisp and neat, and there was a vague expectation in his heart.

Chang Quinoa smiled and said, "Then I will attach another piece of information, the location of the two of us is a huge mining area." ”

"Mine!"

"Yes, there are many kinds of minerals, and I can't believe that they are abundant. I think the same is true of the place occupied by His Majesty the Emperor. A few hundred miles further south from this position, we will reach his area, and if he has his hands free, it will not be our turn, will it?"

"What mines are there?"

Chang Quinoa drew a line on the map and said, "No matter what mine, we will be half of us." ”

"Do you have the mining capacity?"

"No, so I have to ask you for help, the temple is willing to pay 20%. ”

"Thirty percent. ”

"Deal. Chang Quinoa agreed happily, and Xia He suspected that he was going to be less. But it's normal to think about it, and whether the temple can continue to be mined is a question. Seize the benefits first, do nothing, just get seventy percent out of thin air, change to yourself, and you can also agree.

"But my mining progress will be faster than yours, and I will give priority to production. ”

"No problem, the mining power you put in, you are seven and I are three. "Quinoa is easy to talk to. After he finished speaking, he rolled up the map and handed it to Xia He.

Xia He took the map, turned around and left.

That location is really important, but the emperor went east, and there was still a canyon available, but he didn't have it, although the mountainous area in that location was not so wide, only more than three hundred miles.

In this way, the best place is occupied by His Majesty the Emperor!

Old treacherous and cunning bastard, don't talk about this kind of good thing!

Xia He returned to the Iron Mine Castle and immediately contacted Sun City and sent a list of them, asking them to prepare all the supplies within three days and transfer them to the half-plane.

Then Xia He contacted Storm Corner again and asked Freya to design something, which would take three days to complete. All the requirements were passed on, and Freya didn't reply anything else, so she agreed yes.

Outside the iron mine, the army was stationed, and Xia He beckoned all the high-level officials to come over and told him about the Dawn Temple.

Cotton Jack looked at the map and said, "There is another reason why the temple is willing to pay so much, it is that we are sandwiched between the temple and the emperor, which is a buffer. ”

"The temple has money. Xia He replied.

Everyone has no other opinions, and it is best to make money from the temple.

Xia He didn't care about the growth of the divine power of the Lord of Dawn, no matter how it grew, it was not as strong as the Dao Palace. If he was afraid of the Lord of Dawn, he wouldn't have to face the Dao Palace in the future.

"Okay, Alyssa, you bring people over, in this position, every fifty miles, build a mechanical fortress, don't rush to deal with the demons, just defend it. All with mech soldiers, set up the defenses, and you're over there. ”

"Yes. ”

"The rest of the people...... Let's find a way to climb the 300-mile mountainous area, it's a hard march. Now, let's go!"

Xia He didn't even consider the issue of rest and recuperation, and directly gave the order to set off.

When he came over, the demons were not prepared yet, and if he went deep inland, he would immediately cause the demons to rebound. The sooner it passes, the better, the longer the preparation time, the more time the demons will have to prepare.

"What about us?" asked Qiu Xuanji.

"The castle here also needs to be expanded, but don't be in a hurry, I will leave half of the city defense army, and your army can focus on field warfare in the future. ”

"Yes. "Qiu Xuanji doesn't matter, he is not so eager to fight, anyway, he has left him people and equipment, and if he has a task, he will do it properly.

Xia He did not leave immediately, he asked Cotton Jack to lead the army and march east.

That is to say, his army is all structured and mechanized, and the soldiers are all professionals, and before that, when the proportion of professionals in this world was not so high, many people would die when they crossed the 300-mile mountainous area. In the mountains, there are still a lot of monsters moving.

Cottonjack was the first to cross the last hill and saw the narrow plain ahead, and from the image transmitted back by the floating airship, there was a huge deep pit in the ground where the plain gradually opened up. How big is it? If he flies, he can see it from a hundred miles away from this position.

This deep pit has a radius of 1,200 meters and a depth of more than 200 meters. Xia River flew above the pit, and Cotton Jack couldn't imagine how he had come up with it.

Xia He was also very satisfied, he himself came first, and first explored the surrounding mineral deposits, and sure enough, it was the same as the temple said, there were many amazing. Mainly metal mines, but there are also gem mines, which are distributed in the mountains and plains. The location he chose was a jade mine, which was of high quality, but small in scale.

Xia He didn't dig a pit for jade, he wanted to build a huge building here - the Tower of Babel.

The ground of the Tower of Babel is thousands of meters high, and there must be a deep enough foundation below to accommodate the huge magic array, otherwise it will collapse if it is hit by a demigod or even a legend a few times.

The Tower of Babel guards the main road into the mines, and even legends who pass by nearby will be attacked.

Xia He's plan is to use the Tower of Babel as the rear area, accumulate materials, continuously expand the strength of the robots, and engage in a long-term war with the demons.

In the final analysis, there is still a lot of loss to take materials from the half-plane, and it costs a lot to open the half-plane passage once.

Demon rioter, he can't do it, but he can make mecha soldiers. This time Alyssa came over, and in the First Field Regiment, there was also a battalion of troops, which was an intelligent mechanical life. These intelligent mechanical beings, or combat effectiveness, are similar to those of human professionals, but the ability to command ordinary mechanical warriors is not comparable to that of humans.

An intelligent mechanical life capable of commanding thousands of robotic warriors.

Freya's drawings have arrived, Xia He is in the deep pit, a magic array has been arranged, a large number of magicians have been mobilized, the half-plane passage has been opened, and the materials have come out.

There are not many demons in this place, and the main forces are concentrated around the city of His Majesty the Emperor.

The demons also did not expect that more than 200,000 human beings would suddenly appear and cross the 300-mile mountainous area. And I don't know what the point of doing this is.

All the magicians were involved in the construction of the Tower of Babel. Xia He himself was not idle, and the core magic array of the Tower of Babel was refined by him. It's just the first day that the entire foundation was laid. The floating airship reconnoitred in the distance, and found no trace of the activities of the demon army.

Xia He did not rest, and continued to accumulate upwards.

The Tower of Babel is 1,200 meters high, with a staircase every 100 meters, just like something like Mt. Kongo. Each staircase shrinks inward, and in fact the top floor is only a hundred meters in diameter.

Xia He didn't think too much about the cost this time, as long as the surrounding mines could be mined for a year, all the capital would come back.

On the Tower of Babel, there are many constructed golems, which exist in the form of sculptures, and they absorb the energy of the magic array on weekdays, and they can advance slowly.

When the Tower of Babel was completed, Xia He stood on the highest floor, looking down, and his heart was also shocked.

Because it only took ten days before and after, the magic building that was 1,200 meters high was completed. Although it is said that it will continue to be strengthened and refined, the Babel Pillar at the core has been completed, and this thing will not fall. Unless the formation in the depths of the earth is completely destroyed.

It's not the Tower of Babel that keeps the pillar in balance, it's the pillar that keeps the Tower of Babel rooted in the earth.

The technology is not new, and on the side of the Shenzhou world, there are strong people like clouds, among which it is inevitable that there will be mental illness, criminals and the like, and I haven't seen any skyscrapers collapsed.

Xia He also took advantage of it and used the ready-made Chaos Barrier technology, not to open up space, but to defend it. Each piece of masonry on the exterior of the Tower of Babel is an independent barrier of chaos. Even if the legendary spell hits up, it will not cause a chain reaction, which is like the watertight compartment of a battleship, a means of defense to disperse the risk.

Assuming that there is really a legendary war, this Tower of Babel will not be impossible to repair.

On the fifteenth day, the demon army belatedly broke through Elisa's mechanical fortress defense line and rushed to the newly built Tower of Babel.

There are few human soldiers in the mechanical fortress defense line, all of them are robots, and Xia He doesn't expect to be able to defend against anyone. It is enough to be able to block the demon army for half a day.
