Preparations Before Opening Up New Land (Bonus Chapter for 2,000 Averages)
For the next three days, Gu Xi stayed in the Aryadovi City, helping Luna with many things.
He also personally replenished the troops in the city.
However, the most important thing for Gu Xi during these three days was meeting the Fairy Tale Character that had appeared in the library.
Gu Xi never expected that the one who appeared this time would be the one with the Thorns Golden Crown, no, it was the Sleeping Beauty princess.
When she saw Gu Xi, she even smiled at Gu Xi.
"What a coincidence." Gu Xi smiled somewhat awkwardly at Sleeping Beauty.
"It's not a coincidence, I came here specifically to find you."
"Looking for me?" Gu Xi was a little puzzled. What did he want with him?
This girl isn't a ghost.
"Yes, as you know, the original location of my castle has been razed to the ground. Although I replenished the mana from you beforehand and moved the castle, I can't guarantee when the evil god will come again."
So I hope to leave a mark on you.
The mark left behind made Gu Xi clutch his clothes, take a step back, and a strange expression on his face.
At this moment, Sleeping Beauty understood Gu Xi's reaction, and her face immediately turned red.
"No, that's not what I meant. I meant my Sleeping Beauty Castle. I want to project a castle onto your property. Could you do me a favor?"
Sleeping Beauty tugged at Gu Xi's sleeve and shook it repeatedly as she spoke.
"It's not that I don't want to help you, but you may not understand my situation. Here, everything will be affected and slowly become undead."
Gu Xi was somewhat helpless in the face of Sleeping Beauty's request.
It was originally just a matter of adding another castle and carving out another piece of land.
But there are some things that simply cannot be dealt with by simply throwing Gu Xi at them.
If Sleeping Beauty ever needs her castle and comes back to find it turned into a graveyard, that would be hard to explain.
Gu Xi had witnessed Sleeping Beauty's power firsthand.
He couldn't withstand it alone.
"You mean that? I'm not worried about that. Do you remember when you entered my castle?"
When Sleeping Beauty asked him that question, Gu Xi realized that it was really a bit unreasonable to call a castle for living people when entering a castle that required the activation of the Three Divine Skills of Death.
But regardless of the Sleeping Beauty princess before him or everything else he had seen in the castle, Gu Xi believed they were all alive.
At the very least, they were alive but weak; in their condition, Gu Xi didn't dare to release Wave of Death nearby.
Releasing one person means the death of an entire castle.
"Alright, I've already given you all the reminders I needed to. If you think it's okay, then I'll designate a spot for you."
"Thank you very much, as a token of my gratitude..."
Upon hearing this, Sleeping Beauty stood up and thanked Gu Xi.
"No, I won't..."
Gu Xi quickly refused, Gu Xi was well aware of Sleeping Beauty's strength.
"When you can deploy castles and Fortress to the battlefield, you can deploy my Sleeping Beauty Castle to the battlefield."
Huh? That's it?
Seeing Gu Xi's reaction, Sleeping Beauty Princess understood what was going on.
She tugged at Gu Xi's sleeve. "What, is it not allowed?"
"Sure, sure!" Gu Xi said repeatedly. "But how do you plan to project it? Luna, come here and see where we can project another castle!"
Seeing Gu Xi's embarrassed expression, Sleeping Beauty couldn't help but laugh.
However, the happier she laughed, the less Gu Xi dared to look in her direction. The last time he saw her laugh so happily, Gu Xi almost fainted.
Soon Luna floated in from outside. After hearing Gu Xi's story about Sleeping Beauty, Luna did not immediately set aside a piece of land, but instead asked in detail about the situation of Sleeping Beauty Castle.
For example, how large is the castle's land area, and who owns the castle?
The most important point is whether to deploy only the castle or the town below it as well.
This is crucial.
It's important to know that Victoria City started as just a town near the Victoria Tower, and it gradually developed into what it is today.
If Sleeping Beauty Castle were just a projection of the castle itself, then there wouldn't be a problem.
At most, it's just like having an extra Aryadovi Tower, which you can deploy during battle.
However, if there are surrounding towns, the situation is different. It's like opening a new Satellite City, and there are many more things to consider.
For example, the city's development direction, urban safety, and so on are all being considered.
Sleeping Beauty smiled awkwardly at Luna's question.
"It doesn't matter where my castle is, as long as it's in a town. But my situation is a bit special. I have a relatively large number of followers. Even if I just place a castle, I can quickly gather a town full of followers."
Sleeping Beauty then explained the situation.
Gu Xi and Luna exchanged a glance, having already made their decision.
But Gu Xi still said something in the end.
"Then I'll leave a projection of your castle within my territory. Who will ultimately own it?"
"It's all yours. I just want to leave a mark. Castles and such are not really important to me. What I want is for someone to remember my castle. Everything is yours."
After hearing this, Gu Xi and Luna exchanged another glance, and finally made their decision.
And so, the Sleeping Beauty Castle appeared about 150 miles outside the Aryadovi City.
This location leads out from the direction of Dimi's Giant Garden. In order to open up a road leading to this location, Gu Xi and Luna have spent the last few days building the fourth City Gate in the Giant Graveyard Zone.
The Horizontally Openable School Gate.
This marks the beginning of the road, and a Carriage Station was also set up here.
Every day at 6 a. m. and 12 p. m., a special carriage travels between Aryadovi City and Sleeping Beauty Castle.
Of course, if you don't want to take a carriage, that's fine too. At the speed of Gu Xi Evil Coffin, a round trip would take about an hour, which is much faster than waiting for a carriage.
The Carriage Station is now mainly used for transporting various supplies.
Of course, the Sleeping Beauty Castle doesn't need to be built by Gu Xi himself; it will be under a management system.
When Sleeping Beauty left, she only enlightened a single pea seed in the library.
After the pea seed was planted, the thorn forest automatically generated. Once the thorn forest occupied a large enough territory, Gu Xi could see the castle spires peeking out from the outside.
It could be said that Sleeping Beauty Castle was simply thrown in like that.
As for the villages and towns surrounding the castle, they are just outside the Thorn Forest, at the location where the Carriage Station stops.
