Volume 2 Riding Alone to the End of the World Chapter 16 The Burning City
Yanyan City, the largest town within 10,000 miles of the vicinity, was ruined by the invasion of monks thousands of years ago. Today, the few remaining castles are still there, but they are no longer the civilized cities they used to be.
After a day's march, the brigade finally arrived just before sunset, and the ruins of the walls in the afterglow gave a bleak beauty. Their arrival attracted the attention of the dozens of desolate people gathered here, most of them were alien creatures, and they looked nervously at the firelizard legion outside.
A creature with a red and yellow body and a leopard-headed body jumped outside, making a series of strange noises at Keiki and the three caves.
Wei Wuxian asked, "What does it say?"
Kuishu said: "It said that this is their territory, let us stay away, and if you dare to get close, you will be polite to us." ”
Wei Wuxian said: "Don't say anything, let the five hundred crystal yuan spearmen come out of the ranks, give them a quarter of an hour to evacuate, and those who stay and don't leave after the time will be killed." ”
He didn't come to do business and make friends, but to occupy this broken city as a base for future development, and it was better to show off his muscles than to be reasonable.
"Yes. ”
Kui Shu was in a very bad mood now, and he was about to vent, so without saying a word, he transferred the five teams of Jingyuan Spear Flame Lizard Soldiers that had just been formed to the front.
Such a big movement naturally attracted the attention of all the aliens on the other side.
The leopard-headed man unconsciously took a few steps back, the monk who defended the city of Swift Wind was equipped with a crystal spear, it knew how powerful it was, how many tribes had died at the hands of this thing in the first place.
Kuishu relayed Wei Wuxian's words out loud, looking at the leopard-headed man with an unkind gaze, if this guy dared to say a word, he would order his men to blast his surprisingly large leopard head into slag.
Sensing its hostility, the leopard-headed man took a few more steps back, then quickly turned and jumped into the castle.
After dozens of breaths, there was no movement.
Wei Wuxian summoned the three holes in front of him again.
"Boom. ”
The third cave is responsible for the ten modified crystal cannons, and the ten crystal cannons are immediately transferred to the front, and they are a cannon against the huge city wall.
A roar sounded, and a pillar of blue light sprayed towards the city wall hundreds of zhang away on the opposite side.
The city wall, which looked relatively thick, was instantly punched out by a pillar of blue light with a hole more than ten zhang wide, and penetrated all the way to the other side.
Next, countless figures came out of it, and they chose to give in in to the absolute power.
The leopard-headed people were also helpless, if it was only the crystal gun, it could still rely on the city defense to resist, and the appearance of the crystal cannon made it also give up resistance and reluctantly leave the city with its people.
Wei Wuxian waited for the alien race inside to almost go, so he asked Kui Shu to bring two thousand flame lizard soldiers into the inside first to clean up the remaining alien race.
An hour later, all the staff are stationed in the Burning City, and this abandoned castle is about to usher in its new life!
Wei Wuxian came to the cleaned out office, sitting on the stone chair where the city lord of Yanyan City used to sit, the buildings inside were very exquisite, although many of them were dilapidated, but it could still be seen that they were all from the hands of skilled craftsmen, it can be imagined that the original Yanyan City should be extremely prosperous and huge.
This city was even bigger than he had imagined, even more than the city of Windwind, and the seven thousand flame lizard warriors were not spread out, and they were concentrated in the area near the City Lord's Mansion to set up defenses.
The next thing is to clean up the city, so many wastelanders are entrenched in this place to eat, drink and Lazar, it can be seen how bad the city will be, the smell of urine is an extremely difficult thing to deal with, and it can't be eliminated without a period of tidying up.
Wei Wuxian began to formulate the relevant rules, and then said to Kuishu and Sandong, "Go, teach them well, follow this, and besides, if those guys outside are willing to accept the control of the city, then they can live in, but they need to be registered." ”
The two guys touched their heads, looked at each other and said, "We won't be able to register this one!"
Wei Wuxian said lightly: "Then find someone who knows how to do it." ”
The two guys laughed and ran out.
Notices of the recruitment of clerks, staff, craftsmen, etc., were posted on the outer walls, attracting the attention of the aliens who had wandered around for a long time and refused to leave.
Among them were two leopard-headed men.
One of the leopard-headed people said: "Dongkang, is there something wrong with this group of people, they expelled us, and now let us in, isn't this idle panic!"
Another leopard-headed man named Dongkang said: "What do you know, the guy who came this time is not simple, not comparable to those miscellaneous fish." ”
"That's a Terran monk, what good people can a Terran monk have, if it weren't for them, how could we be forced to not even have a place to stay. ”
"Let's go, let's see. The leopard-headed man named Dongkang ignored its complaints and headed for the place where it was registered.
In addition to them, there are many aliens who want to try it out, and they also run over to line up to register, yes, just a moment's effort, there is a long queue outside the city, if you can apply, not only can you enter the city, but you can also get food, where to find this kind of good thing.
Wei Wuxian was struggling to learn the language of the Flame Worm Colony at this time, and with his divine sense, it didn't take too long to learn a language.
Sandong ran over and said, "My lord, there are a lot of applicants. ”
"That's good!"
"But we don't have enough food. ”
The food structure of the alien race is very complicated, but it is acceptable to the Spirit Valley, Wei Wuxian did not bring much Spirit Valley, he was going to plant it as a seed, and he didn't want to use it on it.
"You go find the Red Tongue, I have a lot of snow crystals here, see if it can get some food over there. He said and took out a small bag and gave it as a sample.
Snow crystal is an excellent cold attribute material, and it is difficult to see it in this Flame Insect Colony Star, so I don't know if there is a market.
Sandong took a bag of snow crystal samples and took his men to Windbreaker City.
Wei Wuxian had to establish Yanyan City as soon as possible and plant the Spirit Valley, so that a virtuous circle could be maintained.
For this reason, he deliberately found a piece of land for experiments, after all, the geological conditions here are different from those of the Heavenly Desolate Continent, and the weather is extremely hot, I don't know if the Spirit Valley can successfully sprout and grow.
After a while, Kuishu came running and said that there were more and more wastelanders who had been recruited, and it had reached more than three hundred, and asked if he would continue to recruit.
Wei Wuxian said: "First of all, I want to meet them, and then determine their duties, they are done well, and naturally attract more desolate people to come." ”
More than 300 conscripts entered the City Lord's Mansion, and he patiently met them one by one, taking notes on their personalities and strengths, and this work took three days to complete.
The two leopard-headed people, Dongkang and Dongkui, were respectively given the duties of the city lord's office secretary and the city patrol department.
Dong Kang said: "Dong Kui, you have to obey the rules, this city lord looks very strict, and if he doesn't do his job, I'm afraid he will really be punished." ”
Dongkui said: "I know, you have told me eight times, and I am becoming more and more like the old Dongba." ”
Lao Dongba was the father of the two, the leopard-headed man who jumped out of the city when Wei Wuxian's army came.
After Wei Wuxian assigned the personnel, he gathered the secretary office of the City Lord's Mansion and began to arrange the construction of Yanyan City.
The City Lord's Mansion recruited eight clerks this time, and what he was most satisfied with was that leopard-headed man Dongkang, who had a calm personality, was not surprised by changes, and had the demeanor of a general.
The work of the initial construction was very complicated, and he held a full day meeting with the eight book offices, and after determining the direction of the next step, he began to pass it on through them layer by layer.
The garrison and patrol division of Yanyan City are in charge of Kuishu and Sandong, and the patrol division is in charge of the fire lizard soldiers and the hundred desolate people recruited.
Craftsmen are indispensable for urban construction, and the biggest recruitment target this time is craftsmen, all kinds of craftsmen want, as long as they have a skill, they can enjoy quite good benefits.
For the first time, one hundred and eighty craftsmen were recruited, mostly from the Flame Rat Clan, the Flame Bee Clan, and a few leopard-headed people who were proficient in smelting.
The Leopard-Headed are well-known smelting masters on the Flame Worm Colony Planet, and they are extremely talented, and they have exquisite skills in smelting technology that are difficult for ordinary races to match. Wei Wuxian watched the live performance of these people once, and he was also amazed by the fact that he gradually had some understanding in refining the weapon.
This is a group of natural alchemists!
Dongkang noticed that his eyes were burning when he looked at his people, and that look like a treasure hunter who had dug up a treasure.
