"I am gratified by your courage to not be afraid of the darkness, but I'm sorry that the protagonists on the battlefield today are not you!" Lincon glanced at everyone's faces one by one, with a smile on his lips.
After hearing this sentence, many people looked at each other, not quite understanding what Lincon meant.
Without them, who will resist Black Tide?
Li Zhouhai stood up after thinking for a moment, frowning slightly. "Do you want to rely on those Spirit Plant you have cultivated yourself?"
Lincon's identity as a plant-type ability user is known to everyone in the fortress. People like Ancient Maple Guardian are often responsible for carrying heavy objects such as cranes and cranes during production and construction.
Or the houses transformed from Giant Mushroom, the street lamps transformed from Lantern Mushroom, the street stalls paved by Fluorescent Moss, the city walls wrapped by Tentacle Thorn...
Thinking of this, everyone suddenly realized that Longwind Fortress's spiritual plant had already been integrated into their lives unconsciously.
"But, except for a small number of Spirit Plant, the rest of the plants don't seem to be able to fight against dark creatures, right?" It was Su Yunqing who spoke, and she said with two big dark circles under her eyes.
During this period, according to the Rune Stone Reactor news brought back by Lincon, they Rune Workshop had a new development direction.
Shen Congzhi has plunged headlong into the development work of Runes, and it has not come out until now.
The so-called Rune Stone Reaction is the explosion phenomenon caused by Lincon's main job change, and finally throwing all Rune Stone into Purifying Fire.
Based on Rune Workshop's day and night research during this period, the principle has been roughly calculated.
Mainly caused by the energy conflict between Rune Stone, coupled with the external pressure provided by Purifying Fire, an explosion occurred between Rune Stone, and the energy storm set off killed Pale Wraith.
However, the conditions for the formation of this energy storm are quite harsh, and a large number of experiments and calibrations are required to achieve stable control.
Su Yunqing came here to tell Lincon that they Rune Workshop can help Black Tide this time.
As a result, Lincon told everyone that they were not the protagonists this time.
"I know you may have doubts in your mind, so come with me first!" Lincon did not choose a long explanation, but planned to tell everyone the actual situation.
Everyone was half convinced and followed Lincon all the way to the gate of the fortress.
At this time, the fortress gate has been renovated and can be used normally. However, it is not a normal wooden board covered with iron. Many places have been affected by the growth of Tentacle Thorn, and a network of thorns and green thorns has grown in the gaps.
The group of people came outside the fortress with lanterns in hand, and what they saw immediately made them widen their eyes.
With the arrival of Lincon, the ground around the fortress seemed to wake up and began to gradually emit light.
Sunlight Sunflower Field, the one closest to them, took the lead in raising its flower buds in the night wind. With Solar Sunflower as the center, the entire flower field burst into white light as gentle as the sun.
Next is Explosive Berry Thicket growing hidden in the corner. The berries on it are like a beating heart, with a faint red light.
On the ground, clusters of Spitter Mushroom with mushroom caps shining with gleaming purple light appeared out of nowhere. These Spitter Mushroom were large and small, with a mouthpart protruding from the Mushroom Stalk, like the muzzle of a gun. The largest one was almost half a person tall, and the smaller one was about the size of a basketball.
Each of the strange and magnificent plants seemed to make people feel like they were in a fantasy world. They seemed to recognize these plants at first glance, but upon closer inspection, they were completely different from what they remembered.
"This is...Rune Array!"
Suddenly, Su Yunqing keenly observed that at the feet of those plants, there were some Shrine and Rune Stone distributed regularly.
They are combined together to form a huge Rune Formation.
And these plants stand in all directions of Rune Array, like soldiers on a chessboard, raising their spears to face the enemies outside.
I have to admit that Su Yunqing was a little frightened by Lincon's imagination.
The power of Runes cannot act on living creatures, but Lincon forcibly links them together in a tricky way.
Rune Array is the base, and those plants are the warriors on the base.
"As expected of the person who invented Runes, he is a true genius!"
Su Yunqing's beautiful eyes flashed, and a burst of unconcealed admiration and excitement surged in her heart.
She and Shen Congzhi thought they knew Runes better and better, but every time they saw Lincon, they felt that they were just apprentices who hadn't even crossed the threshold.
"Is it true that only by becoming Rune Master can one understand Runes?" Su Yunqing couldn't help but think.
Li Zhouhai looked at the awakening plants in front of him, and was a little shocked and speechless.
He often patrols around the fortress. It is obvious that he has just left not long ago. At that time, there were not so many plants around the fortress except Sunlight Sunflower Field. Could it be that these things in front of him were conjured out of thin air?
Guan Teng was also confused next to him, scratching his head crazily.
"Sir, even if you have made battle arrangements, I still hope to stand with you to face the enemy." Zhang Rui looked away from the plants in front of him.
"This is Longwind Fortress's first battle, but it will never be the last. I think that even if you have the ability to summon an army of plants, there is one thing that plants cannot compare to."
Zhang Rui's eyes were as bright as fire, and for the first time he didn't flinch when he looked at Lincon.
"We are always more thoughtful than plants, know how to be flexible, and can make corresponding judgments at critical moments.
The scale of C-Rank Black Tide is very large, and it is not limited to the area in front of you. It may penetrate into the fortress. Although we are just ordinary people, we also want to share the burden for you."
When Lincon heard this, he couldn't help but turn his gaze to the crowd. What greeted him were pairs of eyes as sincere as Zhang Rui's.
"Okay..." Lincon looked at Li Zhouhai and ordered, "Li Zhouhai, you have experienced Shangmai City Black Tide. I will leave the personnel allocation work to various parts of the fortress to you. Can you do it well?"
"Please rest assured and leave it to me!" Li Zhouhai took a deep breath, stared at a pair of big copper bell-like eyes, and patted his chest and promised.
In this situation, the scene when Shangmai City was breached seems to echo in Li Zhouhai's memory.
But this time, he will not escape again. Even if he dies, he will die in Longwind Fortress.
Everyone looked towards the endless darkness in the distance, where a heart-stopping force seemed to be brewing.
But in the face of the coming darkness, the sense of crisis that had been lingering in everyone's mind gradually dissipated.
They didn't know why, maybe it was the man standing in front of them who proved to them with practical actions that Longwind Fortress could bear it.
Or maybe I don't know when, the spirit of Longwind Fortress has been quietly implanted in their hearts.
Now that something has been decided, even if only the last person is left, we must stick to it.
Soon, under the arrangements of Li Zhouhai, the adults were assigned to various key locations in the fortress.
The children gathered together and were looked after by several women, and the whole house was surrounded with Purification Shrine to ensure that everything was safe.
And Guan Teng takes the people of Defense Corps to face critical situations at any time.
While everyone was making preparations for the battle, time passed quietly.
[Dark Descent countdown: 0]
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew through the outer wall of the fortress, making a long hissing sound like a whimper.
Longwind Fortress Outside the territory, the sticky darkness began to slowly gather. It did not appear out of thin air, but seemed to last for a long time, and finally reached the peak of the explosion at a certain moment.
