Do you want to build a town?

This idea is like the hyphae of the mother Tai Sui.

It quickly spread in Chen Ye's heart.

Of course, he didn't move the watchtowers of the island directly to the ruins of the town.

Because this kind of thing can't be done by the system, and even more so by manpower.

But if it's divided into two separate regions, similar to the main fort and the attached town, it might work.

The main fort is home to his cronies, and the town is populated with ordinary followers.

In the event of civil unrest in a town, the war will not easily spread to an island a few kilometers away.

Even if the cronies defect......

No, Chen Ye wouldn't let this happen.

Because with the blessing of the system function [Calling Friends], the favorability of teammates can be seen at a glance.

If someone wants to rebel, it will inevitably greatly reduce their opinion.

It is equivalent to directly revealing the identity of a "traitor".

Before he could act, his head was already rolling on the ground.

In this way, the idea of establishing a town does have a certain degree of feasibility.

While thinking about it, Chen Ye led the team deep into the ancient capital.

In the distance, in the center of the magnificent complex, there is a large hall surrounded by high walls.

The faint blue moonlight sprinkled on the glazed tiles on the roof of the main hall, turning into a sparkling light.

There, it should be the temple that Liu Zijun said.

Thousands of years of dust still can't hide the glorious atmosphere of the past.

The crowd walked along the wide avenue, through the high-walled gates, to a wide square.

Unlike the outer city, the inner city is not covered in a fungus blanket on the ground.

You can clearly see the black floor tiles carved with a simple strip pattern.

However, to everyone's surprise, there were many dry corpses in the square.

Outwardly, the remains are from the same species.

Most of the waist and abdomen are pierced, and there are obvious burn marks on the edges.

Chen Ye cautiously stepped forward, his eyes focused, and the system identification function was activated:

【Terra Creature: Ghouls】

[First-Order Alien Beast, with short and powerful limbs and hook-like claws]

[The upper canine teeth are long and sharp, averaging up to 15 cm, and there is a duct connected to the venom gland in the tooth, and when it bites the prey, the powerful nerve venom that causes nerve paralysis will be injected into the prey through the tube tooth along the catheter]

[This kind of creature reproduces quickly, has a strong ability to survive, and likes to inhabit dark environments]

This is the ghoul that Liu Zijun said, but because the time of death is too long, the life essence and survival points in the corpse have long escaped.

Chen Ye looked around and found that most of the black stone brick pits in the square were pitted, as if they had experienced a battle a long time ago.

However, in the images sent back by the resource probe, only the buildings showed black outlines, and there was no sign of life inhabiting or moving.

Chen Ye remembered that when Liu Zijun handed over the management authority, the "temple defense system" was mentioned in the projector.

The Ghoul's death is presumably related to this defense system.

He put the book away and looked around instead.

But apart from the bronze lampposts that line the square, there are no other facilities to be seen.

Chen Ye, who had no clue, once again set his eyes on the main hall.

The main hall has a three-tiered pedestal.

It is surrounded by blue-gray railings.

Dozens of steps were required to reach the temple gate, and some broken bones were piled up on them.

The steps are flanked by steps, and heavy stone slabs are placed in the middle.

Chen Ye took a look at it with a simple flashlight and found that the stone slab was carved with exquisite patterns, and each layer was different.

The first layer is exotic beasts.

The second layer is the mountains and rivers.

The third layer is the sun, moon and stars.

After climbing 39 steps in a row, you can really come to the main entrance of the main hall.

At this time, a three-meter-high beast-shaped bronze statue appeared in front of everyone.

The statue has a lion's head and antlers, a tiger's eye, and a scaled oxtail.

Four stout hooves, resting on a bronze pedestal carved with cloud totems.

Is this a unicorn?

Chen Ye was holding a simple flashlight and was about to get close to the statue to take a closer look, but there was a sudden strange noise around him.

Of course, it wasn't the statue that suddenly came to life.

Instead, the bronze lampposts on both sides suddenly lit up.

In addition, all the lampposts in the square also bloomed with a terrifying red light.

Lu Ze, whose eyes were full of curiosity, walked at the front.

Holding a simple flashlight, he looked around, refusing to let go of every corner.

After the bronze lamppost lit up, Chen Ye saw that the situation was not right, and immediately pulled the kid back.

Lu Ze, who was defenseless, was dragged to a stumbling side.

The portable flashlight came out of his hand and accidentally landed on the steps.

At the same time, several red beams burst in.

The flashlight that was sliding down the stairs was hit on the spot.

After a ball of fire, it turned into dregs.

Lin Zimo and the others exclaimed, so frightened that they stood in place and didn't dare to move.

However, the beam did not strike again.

Fortunately, Chen Ye saw the control panel in front of the Qilin bronze statue and stopped the attack command in time.

If it had been a few seconds later, these people would have been swept through by the beam, and they would never see the sun the next day.

Chen Ye looked at the control panel and breathed a sigh of relief.

【Starship Attack System】

[Degree of loss: 33%]

[Weapon Mod-Automatic Laser Cannon: Fires a high-energy laser beam to deliver a devastating blow to the target]

This was the defense system of the temple.

It seems that Liu Zijun dismantled the core components of the starship attack system and installed them around the main hall.

And the passing conditions are set very harshly.

Unless you are an administrator with advanced privileges, any lifeform that comes near it will be obliterated by the high-energy beam.

Dozens of beams attack at the same time, and there are hardly any dead ends.

The hundreds of ghoul corpses in the square are the best examples.

In addition, Liu Zijun did not place the identification device at the city gate.

Instead, they waited for the lifeforms to climb the stairs and reached the entrance of the main hall before they began to scan and attack.

In this way, there is no chance to run if you want to.

What a ruthless man!

Chen Ye immediately reset the conditions for triggering the defense mechanism.

As with the previous two defenses, it is set so that only he and his teammates can enter.

As the command was given, the red light on the bronze lamppost quickly extinguished, and a tubular device retracted.

Noticing this change, Chen Ye immediately stepped forward to check and found that there was a beam emitter stuffed inside the lamppost.

When the Kirin Bronze Statue senses the approach of an unauthorized lifeform, it immediately activates all the weapon modules in the inner city.

A beam emitter about one meter long and twenty centimeters in diameter will extend out of the hollow of the lamppost and kill the intruder in the first place.

The system book does not contain weapons from Alien, so it is impossible to see the specific information.

If these launchers can be removed and brought back to the watchtower, the entire island's defense capability will be greatly improved.

It's a pity that Liu Zijun has done a lot of protective measures.

Chen Ye didn't remove the launcher for a long time, not to mention, he almost triggered the self-destruct procedure.

Through the images sent back by the resource probe, he found several bundles of cables connected to the bottom of the lamppost.

The cable goes several meters deep into the ground and connects to all the lampposts on the interior wall, eventually connecting to the base of the unicorn statue.

If you want to cut the cable, you will trigger the weapon module's protection routine, which will then self-destruct with all energy reserves.

The energy device of the beam launcher is also buried deep in the ground.

And unlike nuclear reactors, energy devices are very small, probably not as big as the batteries of battery cars.

This reminded Chen Ye of the life engine of the floating projector.

It seems that Liu Zijun also applied biotechnology to these weapon modules in order to protect the temple for a long time.

Such good intentions make one look forward to what is going on inside the temple even more.

Chen Ye looked at Lu Ze beside him and patted him on the shoulder.

"Pay more attention to your surroundings next time, don't act rashly!"

The kid was scared out of a cold sweat, and his legs were still shaking.

The rest of the people also recovered from their frightening and followed Chen Ye's steps one after another, not daring to act alone.
