Chapter 686

A new world, a new base, and a new hunting ground. At the moment when the Peace Corps is attacking with all its strength, the construction of a camp is very smooth.

And like most human strongholds in other worlds, the position of this camp in the big world is as special as ever.

"Blocking this area will block the door to the human world?"

"Of course. Impossible. The rules of the plane are never a simple one-way street. The idea of ​​blocking a certain strategic point is basically unreliable. But if we build a fortress-type town here, it will let anyone who tries to It felt very unsafe to go around our regiment."

The fortress cities are like nails embedded in the worlds of the heavens, controlling the dominance of each world from point to point.

Yong'an Town, a name that fits Zheng Li's preferences very well, but if you look closely at its specific official name, it is probably Yong'an 117 small town.

It is located in the depths of the forest, with a lake on the south and mountains on the back. Not far away is the crack in time and space leading to the next world.

The other side of the big world, which occupies a huge area and is rich in resources, is often the reality that borders several or dozens of worlds.

This is not a good thing for many too young garrison regiments (lords), because the pressure on defense will be great.

However, if the development can be perfected, the resource advantages brought by the big world will be combined with the convenient advantages of geography, becoming golden avenues that continuously bring resources and money.

At this level, the pressure of the Peace Corps is not too great. This area is the third-line area behind the front line, and it is a buffer zone that can basically maintain security. While the business routes are basically stagnant, it also means that the world is relatively deserted, and Not much defensive pressure.

But the problem arises elsewhere.

"... Human resources are not enough. Not to mention the construction and expansion of Yong'an Town. We can't even recruit the skilled workers needed for industry."

"What to expect If you are an ordinary adult with two or three blades and want to fight outside the big city, you will choose a large and medium-sized town that has already been built, with water and electricity, protective barriers, and money to sell It’s better to go to a wasteland with nothing, and wait for ten or thirty years to see if it has a chance to develop.”

In fact, there is no need to elaborate on the redundant words. If it has not been developed or destroyed in a certain battle, the investment of these decades may be useless.

". Let's build the defensive barrier first. Song Ying, are you sure? You can still go back on your word."

The woman shook her head, she didn't care about her determination from the beginning, but the conditions of this world did meet her needs.

"Xin'er is ready, let's start."

"Okay, I'll make it up to you. Let's not talk too much, after that we will have a hard-core relationship in which we will both suffer and prosper."

Zheng Li opened his mouth, looked at the iron rod walking all the way in front of him, and could only say a nonsense.

Song Ying pushed the non-prescription silver-rimmed glasses, but she didn't respond.

At this point, there is no turning back.

"here we go"

At this time, from the core of Yong'an Town, it seems that someone is singing.

".The fairy tale begins here."

The next moment, a light green spread out from the center, and the huge tree hall was painted with light green psychic radiance.

In the air, little elves appeared vaguely. They chased, sang, and fought with each other. This is their home, their fairy tale town.

The brilliance disappeared in a flash, and with the current limit of the ability of the "Crystal Palace of the Dragon Girl in Dongting", it is somewhat reluctant to cover the area of ​​a mountain, a lake and a city.

Song Ying, who was still calm just now, was sweating profusely, leaning on the wall, and sat down slowly.

Since then, her "Crystal Palace" has completely become a fixed town barrier.

The big city can become the core of civilization, in the final analysis, because of the sense of security and spatial stability brought by its defensive barrier.

In this off-site location where many worlds collide from time to time, cities, like small towns, need spatially stable equipment and defensive barriers, and only the city builders can pay for this investment.

The "architectural" spirit weapon is specialized in this. They are specialized in building defense domains and self-worlds, so they can turn a small town or an industrial city into their own domain and provide the expected spatial stability.

Apart from this function, there is actually not much difference between a "house" and a "cart". Even many "houses" that move around with their owners have the ability to unfold when needed and deform and migrate when moving.

But if becoming the core of a town or even a city means completely integrating and binding with the surrounding world, then she doesn't have to think about moving anymore.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and it is also a moment that blocks the future. The sword master is also basically bound. ,

The pale green brilliance is getting brighter and brighter, and the giant trees that are already huge enough are slowly growing again. The most incredible thing is that the logs that have been made into wooden houses and wooden fences are also blooming and alive again. stand up.

In the air, the elves are still singing, and the old tree house is covered with magic vines and magic morning glory. It seems like a thousand years in a flash. This small dilapidated village that can only be described as a "camp" not long ago, at this time, looks But it looks like an elf town deep in the forest.

"Did you make it?"

"Well, I'm going to rest for a while."

Song Ying's situation is quite bad, her complexion is as pale as a dead person's. The sword master will pay for all the psychic energy expenditures. Lingjing can bear part of the consumption but it is not destined to be all. Song Ying is still in a state of overdrawn psychic energy. The most terrible thing is, Still, defending the enchantment is a continuous process, and she has to get used to this constant energy consumption.

"Sleep peacefully, I'll take care of everything."

Yu Ying was called to help settle Song Ying who had fallen into a coma, and Zheng Li also started the rest of the troublesome work.

Letting Song Ying unfold was not impulsive, but the final decision made after repeated weighing.

In fact, considering the degree of fit, Song Ying's "Crystal Palace" Song Xiner is not a good fit. Her personality is more inclined to attack, and she belongs to the kind of "front-line weapons" that is particularly good at making cannon fodder and attacking main force.

But Zheng Li and his party had no other more suitable choice.

If a cart is the core of a hunting group, the "city core and barrier" is the core of a city.

And Yong'an Town, as the future capital of this world and even several surrounding worlds, the owner of the "new city" naturally became the "city lord" in the physical sense.

In such a position, character and trust are more important than ability.

But judging from the current situation, there is nothing wrong with choosing Song Ying. Her natural attributes are highly compatible with the rules of the local world, and the speed of fusion is at least 30% faster than expected, which also doubles the consumption of spiritual energy.

Originally, it was expected that Song Ying could last for at least three hours, allowing Song Xiner of the Spirit Race to eat spirit crystals and other spiritual materials as soon as possible, and speed up the fusion while making Song Ying more comfortable.

However, the scope and fit of fusion exceeded expectations, which intensified Song Ying's consumption, making her quickly become a Sleeping Beauty.

"...she's done her job, now it's our turn."

Under Zheng Li's gaze, the first thing to start was the construction of the town.

Song Ying was just trying to "enclose the land" to expand the security area of ​​Yong'an Town as far as possible. The next priority was to build the wall.

Yes, it is right to build the wall. The range of the city wall built with logs before was not large, and it only met the needs of the current soldiers. Song Ying's full strength this time, the area is at least ten times the size of the camp area.

Such a safe area belonging to human beings should not be wasted. Long-term invasion by foreign objects will also cause the defensive barrier to become unbalanced or even collapsed.

At this time, it is necessary to build a new city wall to delineate the original camp area, which has become the zero ring of Yong'an Town, and the new border point will be a part of the future town.

It can be seen from this that there is money to be made in the garrison outside, just to build houses in enclosures, as long as the city is run, you can make a lot of money just by speculating in real estate.

And such benefits are available to every warband member.

Don't talk about welfare housing. After the town is a little more stable, individuals will buy some "village" real estate. The low price is almost free, and once the village becomes a small town, and the town becomes a city, then these " The assets of the "inner ring" will increase in value crazily.

What common ideals, what comrades-in-arms, in terms of the effect of enhancing organizational loyalty, are far inferior to simple "money and shares" and "distribution of housing and shares".

This is already an old routine for the garrison battle group to expand the wasteland. Let alone whether it is vigorously implemented, as long as Zheng Li says that the land in the camp belongs to the battle group, hundreds of people will leave the group and leave that day.

But now, due to Song Ying's deep sleep, the construction can only rely on animal power and manpower. The giant beasts in the periphery are helping, and other people are also repairing the city wall by themselves.

For a period of time in the future, the city wall is destined to be empty, like an unfinished building with no construction funds.

But this is still a construction land that will be used sooner or later. The laying of the city wall must not only consider safety and convenience, but also consider future construction planning and regional integration.

".Nature and the 'fairy tale' attribute, the fairy tale city in the forest, this fit is really great, saving me a lot of effort"

It is very terrible to keep a big car, and the "house type" spiritual weapon can draw all the income of a battle group, which is not something that an individual can raise.

Over the years, even though Song Ying was desperately earning milk money for "The Castle" Song Xiner, her breakthrough was almost stagnant.

After all, even Song Ying has other spirit races to raise, and there are more experiments to do. It is impossible to pour all the resources into this infinite bottomless pit, especially the frequency of use of "castle" is quite low.

In a sense, the decision this time was also a relief for Song Ying.

Next, it is not her task to cultivate the castle, but the responsibility of the entire battle group, the entire combined legion and even the surrounding worlds.

At that time, countless precious materials will naturally be sent over, and the castle Yong'an City can predictably become the number one city in this world.

"Over there, let's make a way."

As planned, a path was opened to the nearest otherworldly rift.

That is the only "pipeline" currently, leading to a safe town with human defenders, and it is also the life supply line of Yong'an City.

At this time, it is obviously unrealistic to build an eight-lane expressway. Zheng Li's so-called opening the road is just to eradicate the huge trees and herds of animals on the road, and build five or six sentry towers to slightly improve safety and convenience.

Moreover, the road is not long, even if the route is winding, the total number of kilometers is less than five.

At the beginning, Zheng Li chose the perigee near the Dimensional Gate, which not only saves resources, but also makes it easier to run away if things cannot be done.

At the same time, it can also save some shipping costs and daily maintenance costs for escort troops.

This is the normal state of wild towns. With extremely limited combat power and resources, no one can guarantee that they will not be thrown into a bottomless pit in the wild no man's land. Will the road suddenly disappear tomorrow?

And the expansion of the city domain has also made everyone feel a little easier. At least, there is no need to worry about the sudden space disaster destroying everything, and there is no need to worry about falling asleep and losing people.

Stepping into the field, Zheng Li took a deep breath, the air was quite fresh, and it even smelled like his hometown.

This means that at the same time as the high degree of fit, Yong'an City has also begun to build a self-circulation field, so the "native plants" that are growing luxuriantly are the basis of natural circulation.

"It's really good. Song Ying's strength characteristics are too suitable for this place. If I come here, I'm afraid it will be far behind."

Before that, Zheng Li really planned to do it himself, to have enough food and clothing.

Although it has been a long time since he gambled with swords, he has the confidence to take the local materials here and make a directional bet that suits the local "city"

Spirit-like artifacts, and then spend money and breakthroughs at any cost.

But no matter how fast it is, it will take at least six months to reach a usable level.

This is only the scope of enclosing a small village, and it is incomparable to directly enclosing a large area now, building three towns and still having a large area left.

And this is just the beginning.

"It should be coming soon."

Zheng Li didn't have to wait long. After more than half an hour, several carts appeared at the gap in the space in the north.

They don't look special, but they often drag long carriages behind them, some for passenger transport and some for freight, such as low-end trains or high-end tractors.

What a new city lacks the most is people.

It is quite difficult to recruit newcomers to stay in distant urban areas, but it is not difficult to recruit a group of people from nearby cities to live temporarily.

The first batch of recruits, there are about [-] people, most of them are not soldiers, but craftsmen, chefs, technicians, etc., as a city, the most needed labor force is probably not enough, but as a teacher who trains apprentices, But enough.

The first batch of horsemen have been waiting for a long time. Human beings have no patience to wait for them to finish compulsory education. After a little preparation, they will go to the "technical school" as apprentices, and then as soon as possible, they will become a qualified labor force and the cornerstone of the city.

Suddenly, Zheng Li frowned.

When a new store opens, not only invited guests and friends come, but also troublesome customers.
