004 Ancient Machinery to Protect the Mine
When the Void Elves joined the Scourge Territory, their faction shifted from "Neutral" to "Chaos".
"Master, I've killed all the monsters in the vicinity." Raminos reported.
"Done it all?"
Wei Yuan thought of a possibility, if there were no monsters around the territory, would there be no attack in three days.
"A: The difficulty of the attack has increased due to the complete removal of the monsters that spawn points in the territory."
The voice in his head shattered Wei Yuan's beautiful illusions.
"Why!"
"A: Attacks in the early stages are fixed and unavoidable."
"More powerful monsters will be attracted to the territory, so please prepare in advance."
Wei Yuan collapsed, and he knew that he would not let Raminos empty this area, so that the enemies of the first attack were most likely monsters that had just been turned into food.
"How strong are the more powerful monsters?"
"Eighth order, ninth order?"
"A monster of this level can bulldoze the territory."
It's useless to be anxious, all Wei Yuan can do now is actively prepare for the war.
The attack three days later, the ape-man legion ten days later.
How can a territory with nothing survive this crisis?
"Raminos, can you deal with the eighth- and ninth-order monsters?"
Raminos said humbly, "Yes...... bar. β
Raminos was not sure, and the strength of the eighth and ninth order monsters could be seen.
The territory does not have any fortifications, but even if Wei Yuan has the heart, he does not have the corresponding technology.
It is imperative to bring the territory into the Bronze Age.
In the New World, maintaining one's hegemony through technological leadership is a kind of king.
Wei Yuan's eyes fell on his own leaky stone house, he was going to sleep in it tonight, and it was naturally best to upgrade.
"Junior Lord's Cabin"
"Outbuildings: Underground Warehouse"
"Materials required for upgrading: 1500 units of ordinary wood, 150 units of ordinary stone"
"Upgradeable to: Intermediate Lord's Cabin"
"To meet the need for upgrades, do you want to upgrade the building?"
"Yes."
A white curtain descended, enveloping Wei Yuan's room.
"Hint: Priority buildings in the province will be built automatically, and the rest of the buildings will need to be built by hand."
"Do you want to turn on the priority display?"
"Except for the priority buildings, everything else has to be built by hand?"
"A: Yes."
This is undoubtedly bad news for Wei Yuan, whose territory is short of manpower.
If a large number of migrant workers were needed to build a building, they would have to go to slaves to work.
Ten seconds later, the white curtain was removed, and what appeared in front of Wei Yuan's eyes was an enlarged wooden hut.
The foundation was laid with stone, and the walls were made with a mixture of earth and wood. There is a simple beauty in the structure.
"The windows are still leaking."
Wei Yuan went into the house and looked around, the windows were not even papier-mΓ’chΓ©, and the rain would inevitably drift in on rainy days.
"Your Junior Lord's Hut has been upgraded to an Intermediate Lord's Hut"
"Territory radius expanded to 1 km"
"Territory Core HP increased to 1000"
There is little point in the expansion of the territory, and there is more barren grassland for Wei Yuan to take a walk after dinner.
The requirements for entering the Bronze Age have been met for three, and only smelting bronze remains.
The tin ore and copper ore have not yet been settled, Wei Yuan deliberately looked for them in the trading market, and after looking for a long time, he did not get any results.
"Do you two know how to prospect for veins?"
Wei Yuan pinned his hopes on Raminos and the Void Elves.
Raminos closed his eyes and pretended to be dead, and the Void Elf hummed a happy ditty, even though Wei Yuan sounded like a mosquito buzzing.
"Speaking of mining, there's a mine to the south." Void Elf Dao.
"How far?"
The Void Elf recalled, "It seems that it was five or six thousand meters away, and I went there once, and was driven back by the guardians there. β
"Any more information?"
"I advise you not to fight the idea of that mine, which is said to be a holy place blessed by angels."
"Anyway, the angel won't give me a good look, kill the patronus and take the mine."
Angels are creatures of the orderly camp, and their initial favorability towards Wei Yuan is the most negative, and the two are incompatible, and they will start fighting when they meet.
Raminos raised an evil smile: "As my master, leave this task to the elves." β
"I don't want to do it, the guardian spirit of the mine is an eighth-order ancient mechanical species, and he can't be defeated at all before he transforms."
The further down the ranks, the greater the difference in strength between each level.
For example, the strength of the second order is twice that of the first order, and the strength of the third order is four or five times that of the second order.
At first glance, there is only a difference between the seventh and eighth orders, but in fact, there is a chasm.
"I have to think of something else."
Wei Yuan boarded the "Space Trade Market" and spent crystal nuclei to release information on the purchase of tin ore and copper ore.
In a flash, Wei Yuan grumbled with hunger, and temporarily gave up staring at the trading market.
Neither Laminos nor the Void Elves cooked, as they didn't need to eat.
Wei Yuan could only cook by himself and roasted some meat over a firewood fire, but the meat of the unknown monster without spices was not unpalatable, and it was definitely not delicious.
Most of the lords who are too weak in the early stage of the troops, the hungry chest is close to the back, and I don't know how many people dream of eating a mouthful of hot food.
After dinner, Wei Yuan came to the altar of natural disasters.
The Altar's Scourge value has been increased to 451, and half of it is enough to upgrade.
Wei Yuan estimated that after surviving the first attack, the natural disaster value would accumulate to 1,000.
Raminos was lying on the altar, and he loved to stay here.
"Raminos, I want to ask what your seal is about?"
If the seal can be broken, Raminos can recover to the calamity level, and it will be easy to get the eighth-order Patronus.
"My seal? Thousands of years ago, I fought with other calamities and accidentally fell for the sealing technique. β
Laminos doesn't feel sorry that he is not as strong as others, and he has nothing to complain about when he is now.
"There will be conflicts between calamities?"
"Where there are interests, there are disputes, and it is the same everywhere."
Raminos basked lazily, the birth of the eye of the storm stirred up the dark clouds that weighed down over the territory.
"Can you untie it?"
"I don't have a clue how to solve it, maybe I can find the "Great Sage" to find a way."
"Where is the Great Sage?"
Raminos glanced at Wei Yuan: "He won't pay attention to his master, the great sage is in the orderly camp, and he won't answer any questions about the chaos creatures, unless the master ties him up and tortures him." β
ββ¦β¦β
"The master wants to get tin ore and copper ore, right? To do this, you need to defeat the ancient machines that protect the mines. β
"That's right."
"Instead of clinging to that mine, it's better to go further afield and find other sources."
Wei Yuan hadn't thought so, but he didn't know anything about the farther away and didn't know what dangers he would encounter on the way to explore.
If Raminos or the Void Elves died during the exploration, Wei Yuan would be alone. If he can't summon troops consistently, he will die 100% in the first attack.
