"If you can't increase the number of knights, then you can only start from other aspects!"

Su Luo looked at the chestnut squirrels in the magic crystal pit, in this battle, these chestnut squirrels did not flinch under the leadership of Xiao Song, and the trust level was completely sufficient.

Next, he plans to use the energy value obtained by the magic crystal to strengthen these chestnut squirrels, and increase their combat power to close to the level of earth knights as soon as possible, so that with these chestnut squirrels guarding, the number of coyotes can be dealt with several times.

Of course, this is not enough, in order to ensure absolute safety, he feels that he must build some fortifications for the territory, just relying on those thorn bushes, dealing with some beasts, it has no effect on monsters at all.

"Lawrnes, is it possible for us to build walls in our territory to defend against those monsters?" Su Luo thought for a moment.

"Build walls?" Lawrence was stunned, "If there is a city wall, it will indeed be easier to defend against monsters, but Your Highness...... It's almost impossible. ”

"It takes a lot of workers to build a city wall, and it is still the simplest earth wall to be rammed from the foundation with mixed earth, and it must be tamped every one to two feet, otherwise there will be a danger of collapse if it is piled up, and this is still the simplest earth wall."

"The masonry wall is even slower, requiring hundreds of stonemasons to chisel the stone into squares and build them piece by piece...... Your Highness, that's how any wall is built......"

Looking at the chief knight who smiled bitterly, Su Luo shook his head disappreciatively, if there are myths and legends, isn't the world he lives in a world of myths and legends?

He knew that there was something called cement that could quickly build a tall building, but ...... He didn't know how to make cement, what to do?

"Hey, I knew I would be able to cross, so I studied chemistry well...... In other words, how is cement made? Burn the dirt? Su Luo scratched his head helplessly, feeling that he had embarrassed the traversers.

"Lawrence, what if it's magic?"

"I mean, is there a spell that quickly condenses the dirt and makes it solid for rock?"

Suddenly, Su Luo's eyes lit up, this is the world of swords and magic!

"A spell that turns dirt into rock?" Lawrence scratched his head, thought for a moment, and said, "I don't know about this......"

"At least in the kingdom of Milan, I haven't heard of a wall made of magic, but if it were Odora, maybe it would have existed."

"In addition, even if there is such magic, it should be very high-level magic, and it is still not easy to build a city wall, I don't think there is a mage who will spend his time and magic on building a city wall."

Su Luo also sighed when he heard this, this is indeed the case, and even if there is really such a mage, then Thorn Town will definitely not be able to afford it, unless he is willing to exchange it for magic crystal ore, but in this case, it will be a bit of a sacrifice.

"But...... I don't know if any monster can master this power. His eyes looked at the chestnut squirrels digging in the pit with claw strikes, and perhaps he could look for them to see if there were any such monsters......

In addition, if you want to study cement, you have to burn earth, so you have to use fire, and he doesn't feel that he can make cement by making a fire.

If you can subdue a fire attribute pet beast, you may be able to borrow its flame to burn cement at that time......

Exhaling lightly, he put aside the matter of building the city wall for the time being, "Lawrnes, you can secretly recruit some knights first...... And the mercenary subordinates you mentioned last time, find a way to contact them first, and leave the rest to me. ”

"Yes, Your Highness, I will tread carefully and try not to reveal your true purpose." Lawrence nodded, retreated, and hurried in the direction of Thorntown, intending to recruit mercenaries.

Looking at the back of the chief knight leaving, Su Luo set his eyes on those chestnut squirrels, this time the chestnut squirrels helped protect the territory, and they had to be rewarded, so it was decided, and then try to improve the strength of these chestnut squirrels!

......

Squeak~

Komatsu looked at his beast master aggrievedly and kept complaining.

"Komatsu, you also know the current situation."

"If we want to protect the magic crystal mine, we must be stronger."

"If you can improve the strength of these chestnut squirrels, you can better protect the territory."

"In addition, they are all your subordinates, and their strength has increased, doesn't it mean that your strength has improved?"

Su Luo hurriedly comforted Xiao Song, during this time he used all the energy points he obtained to add points to the chestnut squirrels, and Xiao Song's emotions were very great.

Squeak~

Komatsu was stunned and nodded silently.

Although it understood the reason, when it saw its own beast master strengthening other monsters, it felt uncomfortable for a while, as if something of its own had been snatched away.

"Don't worry, the upper limit of the current energy value is close to 800, and when it exceeds 1000, I will try to help you evolve." Su Luo reassured.

Squeak~

Hearing this, Komatsu nodded silently, indicating that he would also work hard!

Then I saw Komatsu leave the wooden house without any hesitation and went to the martial arts training ground for training.

It also wants to increase its level as soon as possible, so that it can increase the upper limit of energy value faster, as long as it successfully improves by level 2, won't the upper limit of energy value be increased to 1000 points?

Glancing at Xiao Song, who was leaving, Su Luo looked at the magic crystal in front of him, and after thinking for a while, he asked the knight to bring a chestnut squirrel over.

The level of this chestnut squirrel is only level 5, which is considered medium among the chestnut squirrel group, and the order of Su Luo's strengthening is also carried out in order from strongest to weakest.

Squeak~

The chestnut squirrel looked very excited when he saw Su Luo.

It knew that the master in front of it had the power to make itself stronger, and many of its people had already been strengthened by their masters, and now it was finally its turn.

"Chestnut Squirrel, this is your reward for helping the territory with its defenses." Su Luo smiled and hugged the chestnut squirrel.

After this time of getting along, he has established a deep relationship with the chestnut squirrels, and these chestnut squirrels also recognize him as their master with the help of Komatsu.

Compared to the real pet beasts, they are just one step away from signing the spiritual contract, so these chestnut squirrels can also be regarded as Su Luo's second team pet beasts.

Squeak~

The chestnut squirrel enjoyed Su Luo's petting, rubbing his head against Su Luo's chest from time to time.

After seeing this scene, Su Luo smiled slightly, suddenly looked out of the door with a little weakness, and then put the chestnut squirrel on the table.

"Ready, I'm going to strengthen you now."

Su Luo touched the chestnut squirrel's head to remind him, and began to urge the energy in his body to use the strengthening function of the system.

Speed and strength, this is the direction of the chestnut squirrels' strengthening, because these two races are two stars in six dimensions, the most energy-saving value is strengthened, and the combat power of the chestnut squirrels can be increased with minimal consumption.

After strengthening the speed and strength to the full level, the combat power of the chestnut squirrels can be close to the peak combat power of the official knights, and there are thirty-two chestnut squirrels of this strength, even if they face the group of coyotes again, these chestnut squirrels can completely solve it!

In addition, with the improvement of strength, the speed of chestnut squirrels digging magic crystal ore has also made a qualitative leap, and the number of magic crystal ore excavated in recent times has obviously increased a lot.

"It's a pity, it's just too much magic crystal." Su Luo exhaled, strengthening a chestnut squirrel almost requires two magic crystals, which are converted into more than 200 gold coins, and the price is quite high.
