The discovery of the second true red crystal mine made Hu Siming's spirits high.

Affected by many factors such as the conversion efficiency of the main city and the scope of the vacuum crystal ore, the existing small crystal ore can be collected by five farmers at the same time. If we continue to increase the number of people, there will hardly be a significant improvement in efficiency, and this is undoubtedly the biggest factor restricting the development base of the trainees -- without enough crystal mines, even gods cannot create something out of nothing.

But the discovery of the second crystal mine made Hu Siming see the possibility of changing the current situation.

That's the opening base!

If the second crystal ore can be used in the past, and the two mines can be mined at the same time, the economy of the base will skyrocket. Even if the development of the main city is interrupted by the follow-up attack of the fishmen, the resources of the sub-base continue to grow. As long as he is given a certain amount of time, the economy operated by the double mine will definitely be able to create a powerful army.

In just a few seconds, Hu Siming made a decision.

However, it is easy to say that the base is opened, and there are still a few points to prepare for it. In the shared vision provided by the Scout Crow, there is no shortage of high-level demonic beasts near the second True Red Crystal Mine. Hu Siming led the team to pass by, which is likely to cause them to attack. Even if these demonic beasts are cleared, the breath leaking from the second crystal mine when it continues to be collected may also cause the fish-man tribe to attack. Therefore, the sub-base must also build a certain defensive tower to ensure that it can delay for a while when the fishmen attack, and give Hu Siming time to support.

Of course, this problem is not out of the question.

When he was free before, Hu Siming had already considered that he could take the initiative to reduce the efficiency of ore distribution and collection through guò to reduce the attention of the fishman as much as possible. If it were four farmers mining, the fluctuations and leaks would certainly not be as good as the main mine, which was running at full power and had been mined for a long time. In this case, even if the Fish-Man Tribe senses the anomaly of the ore division, it will not lightly abandon the target that has been attacked several times.

With this countermeasure, the next thing that is needed is only the farmers who open the base.

Drawing from the existing farmers in the main base will obviously delay the collection of resources. Under Hu Siming's orders, four new peasants were trained in succession in the main city. To do this, he had to expand a farm again to provide enough for the population. When this qiē was ready, Hu Siming took all the infantry and musketeers of the base and followed the route of the reconnaissance crows to the second true red crystal mine.

Unable to determine the exact timing of the third wave of fish-man attacks, Hu Siming spent 135 units of crystal ore to purchase a team return scroll in the mysterious treasure room.

This scroll is much more powerful than the teleportation scroll (TP) in the turret. Unlike the latter, which can only teleport on its own, the Team Return Scroll can take all nearby allied units with you.

With this, Hu Siming can return to the base at any time!

got the strategic props to ensure the safety of the base, Hu Siming set off with the team with confidence. At this time, the long-distance action of the brigade reflected the acceleration aura effect of destroying the corner of miè. You must know that although the distance between the two crystals is only 3 miles in a straight line, the ruins, jungles and waterholes on the island make the road very curved, and the actual distance is almost doubled. In this case, the team's +15 movement speed saves him a lot of time.

During this period, Hu Siming was still developing in the remote control base.

With the final large-scale magic orb taking shape, a mysterious sanctuary on the scale of the main city and surrounded by a dreamlike magical light was built. With its addition, Hu Siming can finally train mage troops. Witches who can slow down are definitely needed, and priests with healing and psychic fire skills are even more essential. While immediately starting to train these two mage units, Hu Siming also checked the expert training of witches and priests in the mysterious shrine.

The research and development of this technology can increase the attack, mana, and mana recovery speed of witches and priests. Although the resources consumed are enough to build two arrow towers, the later you go, the more valuable it becomes, and it is a tech tree that must be upgraded.

In addition to the affairs of the main base, during the rush, Hu Siming's control of the reconnaissance crows did not stop.

After the discovery of the second crystal mine, the investment in buying this scout crow has already paid off n times over. However, there are still many places that have not been explored on the small island of Noda. In particular, the Goblin Dockyard mentioned in Campaign Objective 2 has not been seen until now. Hu Siming's follow-up mission for the scout crow was to poke out every shadow on the island and find the location of the goblin dock.

Such an orderly handling is constantly advancing the process of the rehearsal battle.

Two minutes after the construction of the mysterious holy place was completed, Hu Siming led the team to climb the cliff marked on the map of the school emblem. Less than a hundred meters in front of him, a dazzling true red crystal ore containing abundant energy appeared in front of him.

【True Red Crystal Vein・False】

A small vein with a reserve of 10,000 units that can accommodate five farmers at the same time.

The exact same description as the previous true aqualite, also marked with the word "pseudo". It's just that the reserves of this vein seem to be a little less than the deposits in the main base, only 10,000 units, but it is enough to be mined for a long time. After looking around the area, Hu Siming soon realized that the terrain here was better than his main base. Cliffs on two sides and dense jungle on one side, with only one slope leading here. If you can find it when you go to the island, it will be much less difficult to defend later.

Of course, such assumptions are meaningless.

Without knowing the map, it is almost impossible to go three or four miles deep into the island and find the crystal ore hidden on the cliff at one time. I'm afraid that as soon as he has built the town hall, the attack of the fish-man tribe has already come to his doorstep. Fortunately, although I missed the opportunity to serve as the main base, it is not bad to use it now to open mines.

Since the farmers in the main base had stored a lot of resources on the way here, the farmers brought by Hu Siming came directly to the side of the true red crystal mine and began to build the town hall - this is a new building option that the farmers only get after the main base is upgraded to the main city. Not only that, but the scale of the sub-base cannot exceed that of the main city. However, the purpose of Hu Siming's sub-base is mainly to collect resources, and such a restriction is equivalent to no existence for him.

Considering the tight schedule and the slow pace of construction of the town hall, Hu Siming mobilized two peasants to build it together to make the sub-base take shape.

The remaining two peasants built their own towers.

Because Hu Siming didn't plan to build too many functional buildings in the sub-base, just a lumberyard and a town hall would do, so the arrow towers were placed relatively densely, which could make the defense more powerful.

With the consumption of resources and the continuous activation of construction skills, the town hall of the sub-base has begun to take shape under Hu Siming's gaze. The two arrow towers next to it have also been built at the base of the tower, and they will soon be officially put into the defense sequence.

The formation of the sub-base greatly improved the completion of Hu Siming's campaign. After building the Mystic Sanctuary, his campaign completion rate was just over 20%. However, with the completion of sub-bases and attached arrow towers, the completion of the campaign soared by 5% in one fell swoop, approaching 26%. Coincidentally, his scout crow also found a goblin dock on the southeastern edge of the island, on a naturally formed shallow-water dock, at the same time, where he could hire ships.

Even though it was only a hasty glimpse in the shared vision, Hu Siming saw the immensity of the goblin dock.

"Campaign Objective 2 Update, Discover the Goblin Dock!"

Half of the important campaign objectives were achieved, and Hu Siming's campaign completion rate increased by another 2%. In just two or three minutes, his campaign completion soared, reaching 28 percent. The top five students in the class have been biting very tightly to completeness, and this moment was finally greatly opened.

Jiang Yuanhao, who ranked second, was thrown off by Hu Siming by 8% in a short period of time!

From the beginning of landing on the island to the town hall down, Jiang Yuanhao's strategy was different from Hu Siming's. He was desperate at the beginning, so he was able to defend the first two waves of fish-man attacks. But in this way, the development of the base has also been affected by Yanzhòng, and it is only now that the main city has just been upgraded, and it is preparing to build a mysterious holy land. At this moment, Jiang Yuanhao couldn't help but be taken aback by inadvertently opening the ranking of the school emblem and seeing Hu Siming's 30% completion by leaps and bounds.

Liang Wu, Yan Shaoou, Lu Kai and other students, who had any hope of competing for the top two in the rankings, were also taken aback when they saw Hu Siming suddenly break out.

After feeling the difficulty of the rehearsal battle, most of them were like Jiang Yuanhao, and chose to come up and fight violently. This allowed them to successfully defend, but it also affected the development of the base. Hu Siming is different, he takes a relatively balanced line, relying on his strong combat power to make up for the shortcomings of no rioters. Although the development of the base has also stagnated several times, on the whole, it is still faster than others.

Although this lead was not obvious before the opening of the base, with the formation of the base, this slight advantage was quickly magnified and turned into a lead of up to 8% completion.

As for the few people at the bottom of the ranking, in the face of Hu Siming's completion of the battle, they can only look up.

Finally, as the farmers who completed the construction officially exploited the ore distribution resources, the development of Hu Siming's base really embarked on the high-speed lane at this moment. Since four farmers were not enough to make the sub-base fully useful, Hu Siming asked the newly completed sub-base town hall to continue training farmers to collect timber resources in the vicinity. In addition, the defense system here cannot be stopped.

Even if the area to be defended is smaller, at least four or five arrow towers will be needed to ensure the safety of the sub-base.

"Knock knock!"

The alarm bell of the bell tower in the town hall rang abruptly.

The sub-base had only been put into operation for less than a minute, and the aura of transforming the True Red Crystal had attracted the nearby demonic beasts that had already noticed Hu Siming and them. At this moment, three demonic beasts, including an adult sea giant with a lv6, gathered and killed the base.

However, it is no longer the time for Hu Simin to set foot on the island
