Chapter 119: Ruined Ape Man
Meng Yang's concern was not unreasonable, because he had already carefully explored the Yellow Sand Valley with his divine sense, and the Burning Heaven and Hunting Heaven had also carried out a detailed search according to his instructions, and with the special abilities of the Burning Heaven and the Hunting Heaven, if there really was a water source within a hundred miles of the Yellow Sand Valley, then they should have discovered it a long time ago.
But soon, Meng Yang discovered that his worries were completely unnecessary, and Dingtian's words in the Phoenix Courtyard and the previous ones were not exaggerated, and it did have quite a powerful talent.
Dingtian, who was constantly gathering thin heaven and earth aura and dispelling the wind and sand near the camp with its special ability, soon sent good news to Meng Yang, it found an underground spring somewhere in the center of the earth, which was very suitable for drinking, and with its current ability, it would take at least ten days to bring the spring water to the ground.
In ten days, he brought the spring water thousands of meters away from the center of the earth to the ground, and Dingtian's ability was already terrifying enough, but after Meng Yang instructed Dingtian to act carefully, he was still deeply worried, because the existing water was only enough to use for three days. Even if you save more, it's not easy to last for ten days. Meng Yang decided to discuss it with Ruoyi.
The wolf guards set up a tent to manage the supplies brought in by thirty wagons, including water.
Meng Yang knew that this matter could not let the Seven Thousand Phoenix Iron Guards know, although these were all slaves, but at the moment of life and death, how much energy would burst out of that kind of panic and despair, no one was sure, once they knew that there was a shortage of water in the army, panic was inevitable.
Meng Yang found Ruoyi to discuss, Ruoyi completed one-third of the drawing design, Meng Yang said the problem he encountered now, and did not tell Ruo Yi the origin of Dingtian, but said that he used a special method to quickly breed this strange tree, which can become the protection of the base in the future, and now it can help the base find a water source, but it will take ten days.
Ruoyi was very interested in Qishu, she groaned for a while, and said, "Big brother, thank you for giving this group of people such a domineering name, I believe that the Phoenix Iron Guard will sweep the world one day." Since this is the case now, I think this is not a test, and only those who can stand the test can become the core of our command, the survival of the fittest, the survival of the fittest, and at this time we can only deal with everything with tough means. Spend a huge amount of money to buy them, and the power of life and death is in our hands, but the people's hearts are the military spirit for an army, and the military spirit cannot be dispersed at any time. If you want to build an iron army, you must let this iron army have an iron will, which is the soul of the army. I think that for a long time to come, we will build the base on the one hand, and on the other hand, we will build the military soul of this army, and only an army with a military soul can have the qualification to conquer the world. Big brother, do you agree with me? This drinking water incident is just a small test. I was also anxious to follow you out of the Empire and get you to safety, and I didn't think about such a big thing. It's me who was negligent, and I don't blame the big brother. ”
Meng Yang praised: "Little sister, you are really a leading wizard! Listening to your words, I have a feeling of being surprised." Yes, to build the soul of the army, you must start now, or I will handle the drawings, and you can manage your army, such as specifying military regulations and the like, I am not good at these. Immediately arrange for someone to start building the cistern, preferably here, here, here, one separately, just under the shade of strange trees, and then rebuild it when the construction of the base fortress begins. ”
Ruoyi went away happily.
According to Ruoyi's meaning, only those who passed her preliminary assessment could obtain the cultivation resources that were about to be distributed, allowing them to transform into professionals. Meng Yang did not object, but secretly communicated with the Dingtian consciousness while designing the drawings.
Dingtian said that although the aura of heaven and earth here is extremely scarce, the aura of heaven and earth in the center of the earth is still enough for its growth at this stage. In a few more days, its canopy and body will skyrocket, and it even bluntly said that as long as there is enough time and sufficient aura, its canopy may cover a radius of five miles in the future.
Meng Yang didn't expect the unexpected harvest in the Phoenix Villa, but it came in handy today. So he concentrated on drawing drawings without distractions.
As for building pools, renovating the Phoenix Iron Guard and Wolf Guard, and tempering the military soul, these things were carried out by Ruoyi.
For such a thing as governing the army, Meng Yang completely has a learning attitude, Ruoyi, who was born in the royal family and is the fourth personal disciple of the dean, has a talent for governing the army in his chest that is not much worse than Ming Shao and others, Meng Yang also hopes that now he will gradually fade out of the field of vision of the people in the army, and push Ruoyi to the position of commander, so that she can establish her prestige. After all, no matter how powerful an iron army is, Meng Yang will not be able to take it away in the future.
The drawings, Meng Yang took three days to complete, during this period, Ruoyi has already made the camp of the seven thousand phoenix iron guards have the solemn atmosphere of the military camp, although these people have not yet obtained weapons and armor, but Ruoyi's means Meng Yang still appreciates it very much.
In the valley of yellow sand, the three cisterns have begun to take shape, no one is curious about the strange trees anymore, and no one is in an uproar about the lack of water, and nothing seems to have changed.
Meng Yang knew that in private, Ruoyi must have done a lot of persuasion and training to these people, and he really had lofty ambitions, and the longitude and latitude in his chest were by no means comparable to Meng Yang's ability to govern the army.
In three days, although the body of the Dingtian tree has not changed much, the color is much greener, and the branches and leaves are also much more lush, according to its words, at most there is another month or so, it can initially urge the natural skills, greatly improve the current situation of the Yellow Sand Valley, and let Meng Yang sprinkle some crop seeds in the shade-covered atmosphere, and the seeds will be covered by the yellow sand, but Dingtian said that there will be surprises for a while.
Ruoyi knew that Meng Yang had completed the drawings and came to watch, and the two discussed and made partial modifications, and then it was determined.
The base is also composed of three connected fortress-like buildings.
The middle is the main fort, and the east and west sides are the women's and men's camps.
In front of the base, a large-scale martial arts arena will be built, and a high point and general platform will be built, and the training and training of the sergeants will be carried out in the martial arts arena in the future.
The scale of the base fortress is twice as large as that of the Dragon Ruin Fort, and the building materials are sufficient, but Meng Yang took into account the special situation of the territory and decided to inspect further afield, hoping to find ores and building materials that can be used in the construction of the base fortress that adapt to the environment and climate of the territory.
Ruoyi was never worried that Meng Yang would go on an adventure alone, and originally wanted Meng Yang to take away five hundred wolf guards, but Meng Yang insisted on taking only one hundred wolf guards with him, and left Burning Sky in the Yellow Sand Valley.
Meng Yang instructed that once the reservoir began to fill with water, then the construction of the base fortress could begin. In the temporary warehouse, Monyan took out a large amount of building materials, food, and tools. Out of Ruoyi's considerations, he didn't plan to let the Phoenix Iron Guards get involved in cultivation for the time being.
In a few days, Dingtian purified the wind and sand in a radius of seven or eight hundred meters around the camp, and the rich special aura containing green wood and several other attributes permeated the surrounding camp. This is what Meng Yang is most pleased about, if Dingtian can really change the Huangsha Valley on a large scale, and the air and environment are well improved, then this base will be quite valuable. Even if there were powerful creatures outside the Yellow Sand Valley, how could they know that there would be an oasis-like existence in the Yellow Sand? Undoubtedly, the effect of the top of the sky made Meng Yang's confidence soar.
Riding the hunting sky, with a hundred wolf guards, Meng Yang first explored the west of the Yellow Sand Valley.
Meng Yang found that the more he walked out, the more intense the wind and sand became, and even formed a sand whirl, like a hurricane, if it weren't for the courage of those demon wolves, Meng Yang knew that these hundred wolf guards would definitely not be able to go deeper. Following one direction, Meng Yang used his divine sense to detect and guide the team to avoid the powerful sand whirlpool and move slowly.
When they set out, they only brought a small amount of water, but the food was very sufficient, but fortunately, as long as the wolf guards did not fight fiercely, there was no problem with drinking a little water for three or five days. However, halfway through, the demon wolves were constantly resisting the wind and sand, and their physical strength was very exerted, so they replenished their food several times.
Most of this food was hunted and stored by the wolf guards with their own horses when the dragon's beard was born, and Meng Yang brought it with him.
I had traveled more than 300 miles, but when I looked around, there was still a violent sandstorm and swirl, and I could not see the shadow of a new green plant, not even a weathered stone.
This is the place of death, but it lives up to its name, and there is no anger at all.
Monyan noticed that these sand whirlwinds also seemed to be spiritual, and felt the breath of their group, and from time to time gathered a few of their dozen or so mighty forces to sweep over them, making them tired to deal with.
Could it be that the entire Royal Seven Territory is covered by such a sandstorm? Meng Yang felt that it was impossible.
Even though this is an ancient battlefield that has been fundamentally destroyed in the past, but the more places like this, the easier it is to breed extraordinarily powerful creatures, didn't he meet the sand lord nourished by the sand magnetic bell in the desert of the Sea of Death? At this moment, he can't help but feel a little nostalgic for the sand ba, if the sand ba is here, he must be like a fish in water, and if he joins forces with Dingtian, then he doesn't know how much smoother the future will be.
But thinking about it, he didn't know how long it would take for Jia Ye to escape to his own sea of consciousness space with the flying tongs, and Sanxiao, who had been in the sea of reincarnation for a long time, was afraid that he would not be able to count on it this time.
The sandstorm became more and more intense, and several wolf guards were almost swept away, if it wasn't for the demon wolf's neck, the consequences would be really unpredictable.
"Master, the wind and sand fluctuations here are the most intense, I think, there must be an abnormality here, my intuition is to go straight to the most intense center, there must be a major discovery!"
Suddenly, the idea of hunting the sky came over, which lifted Meng Yang's spirits.
"Hunter Tian, with your wolf king's instinctive intuition, have you ever sensed that there is life in the center of that storm? In fact, what he was worried about was the hundred wolf guards around him, after all, the strongest of them were only fourth-level warriors and magicians, and a slightly stronger demonic beast would easily take their lives. Especially in such a treacherous environment, the group combat ability that they had been practicing for a long time was greatly reduced, and when he heard Lietian's proposal, he suddenly hesitated.
"Master, my intuition can't be wrong, I've probed carefully, and only by going deep into that direction can I make a major breakthrough. "Hunter Tian is eager.
"Okay, according to your words, let's break through to the center of this storm!" Meng Yang resolutely made up his mind.
He turned to look at the hundred wolf guards who were still calm despite the hard support, and shouted in a condensed voice: "We have traveled more than three hundred miles, and we have not yet walked out of this land of yellow sand, and now I have decided to go to the center of the storm to find out, are you afraid?"
"Don't be afraid!, listen to your master!" replied the wolf guards in unison.
"Okay, listen to my orders, be ready to take recovery potions at any time and be prepared to deal with all unknown dangers, whether it is a warrior or a magician, first bless the defense, show the level of your daily training, take care of each other, and follow me! Your demon wolf mount will take you to find me, and I am your guideline!"
Hunter suddenly shook his head, and in an instant, a halo of magical power flickered on its body, and after a few breaths, its body became as huge as a mountain. Meng Yang, who was also busy blessing all kinds of defenses on it, was as small as a small person.
At the same time, the wolf guards and their demon wolf mounts all took action, and the demon wolf enlarged his body as much as possible, which was the natural skill of the demon wolf, and it would not consume too much magic power, and the wolf guards urged the fighting spirit, magic power, and blessed the defense.
Ten breaths later, Meng Yang waved his big hand towards the center of the storm and shouted, "Let's go!"
Lietian took the lead in carrying Meng Yang and rushed out, and a hundred wolf guards followed in an orderly manner.
Hunting Heaven went straight to the place where it passed, and there was a roaring yellow sandstorm, into a huge whirlpool of wind and sand, which would be caught in it at any moment and everything in it would be shattered.
But Hunter, who was rapidly approaching with his defense, quickly rushed to the front of the whirlpool, howled heedlessly, jumped forward, and disappeared into the huge whirlpool of wind and sand.
Without hesitation, a hundred wolf guards rushed in.
After a short period of suffocation caused by the condensation of space, Meng Yang, who had his eyes closed, did not feel the sound of wind and sand surging around him, and the moment he opened his eyes, he heard several extremely strange and breathtaking howls of demonic beasts, and there was a sharp tremor under his body, and Hunter Tian raised his head high, and let out an earth-shattering "Soul Piercing Roar"!
But the first thing that caught Meng Yang's eyes was a pile of white bones, including human beings, as well as all kinds of strange beasts that could not be named, full of bones, and many strange weapons, armor, and magic wands everywhere.
These bones fell to their feet in the ruins of a castle, but the first thing Meng Yang paid attention to was the broken pillar bricks that clearly contained extremely strong magic resistance, and at the same time, he was keenly aware that this should be the ancient battlefield mentioned by Ruoyi!
At the same time, Meng Yang saw that in the direction of due north, about 100 meters away, there were four tall apes with a height of more than five meters, they were covered with long golden hairs, opened their mouths of blood, showed a few sharp white teeth that were inches long, and rushed over with their teeth and claws.
A creature that is not afraid of "Soul Piercing Howling" is a strange existence without a soul?
Meng Yang waved his hand behind him, and shouted loudly to the hundred wolf guards who were lined up behind him: "Don't act rashly, I'll go and see first!"
As he spoke, the four huge apes had already rushed closer, and the distance between the two sides was only fifty meters at most, and Meng Yang had just jumped high on the back of the hunting sky, with the help of a little force, pulled out the autumn water, and stepped forward, when he heard four extremely terrible sounds of weapons slashing through the air.
"Master, be careful!" several wolf guards shouted in heart-rending voices.
