Black Tortoise Cannon
The Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line is a level 6 defense line.
That should be enough.
After all, according to the calculations of the Eternal Night Hall, the Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line is an inland defense line, and its main function is to stop the Strange Tide that will come to the Western Wasteland Island it falls.
Level-7 Defense Line is a hurdle.
Upgrading to Level-7 Defense Line requires one rare and Exotic Treasure Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures like "Monkey-Head Fruit" for each City Wall upgrade, which is quite a significant expense. Normally, that would be enough.
But last time, they couldn't stop the Strange Tide that sneaked in from the heartland.
There's nothing we can do about it.
It's impossible to turn all defenses into "Tenth-Level Defense Line" just to deal with emergencies; the Eternal Night Hall doesn't have that kind of capability. And in just a short while...
They then saw a Level-7 Defense Line rise out of thin air in front of them in the Mortal Domain.
All the members responsible for defending the city at Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line, along with the Builder stationed there, climbed the City Wall and stared blankly at the scene before them. What they saw was a shock to them.
An absolute dimensional reduction attack.
Chen Fan was already high.
Standing on the City Wall, the Eerie Stone turned into liquid and flowed rapidly into the city City Wall through Copper Pipe, while the "Monkey-Head Fruit" transported by High-Speed Rail continued to melt and flow into the City Wall.
This "Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line" has been upgraded once again!
Level 8!
Level 9!
Level 10!
In the blink of an eye.
After consuming 2.58 billion Eerie Stone and 243,000 Monkey-Head Fruit, the 27-kilometer-long "Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line" was directly upgraded to level 10!
Standing 200 meters tall in front of the original defensive line.
The original 30-meter-high "Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line" looks like an adorable ornament behind this defense line.
The defenses have been upgraded.
However, various tasks still need to be completed.
Standing on the City Wall, Chen Fan looked at the Copper Pipe laid on City Wall. With a thought, he made most of the Copper Pipe appear as illusory objects, floating on the surface of the City Wall. These pipes were responsible for connecting the Eerie Fire Altar to the City Wall.
From then until now.
All the Copper Pipe laying work in the "Mortal Domain" could only be done by him, but this was too inefficient. The Mortal Domain was getting bigger and bigger, and if he were to lay the Copper Pipe by himself, it would take forever.
Then
He had a large number of Copper Pipe installed in the Warehouse, and for the past six months Mortal Domain Member have been laying the High-Speed Rail Track.
He laid the track, and with a thought, the Copper Pipe could be submerged a meter underground without digging.
For Mortal Domain Member to lay Copper Pipe, they first need to dig up the ground, then bury the Copper Pipe, and then fill the soil back in, which seems much less efficient than his method. But...
There are many people in the Mortal Domain.
Dividing a section of track into multiple points, constructing each section separately, and then rejoining them is not much less efficient than this method. When laying Copper Pipe, the copper pipes can be arbitrarily shaped, such as with curves or right angles, which is not possible for Mortal Domain Member.
His solution was to manufacture a batch of special Copper Pipe with different shapes in the Mortal Domain Warehouse, and let people take whatever they needed.
In this way
He freed himself up, only having to personally lay the "Empty Rail," which required illusory Copper Pipe; the rest of the Copper Pipe laying work could be handed over to Mortal Domain Member.
Even Copper Pipe laid on the City Wall would work.
Previously, the Copper Pipe were buried inside the City Wall to protect Copper Pipe. Now that the Copper Pipe can be made invisible, what protection is there left? And besides...
The "Altar," "Eerie Fire," "Soul-Devouring Sculpture," and "Sky-Piercing Pillar" are all movable structures, so he had already built a batch of them in the Mortal Domain Warehouse.
The result is as shown now.
He only needs to build a rough outline of a defensive line, and then a steady stream of Mortal Domain Member will arrive by High-Speed Rail with Mortal Domain logistics personnel to help him perfect the entire defensive line.
It's somewhat like a prefabricated defense line.
Everything was made at home and then brought over for on-site assembly.
It's not the kind of thing where they get it done on the spot after you arrive.
When he built the "Northbank Defense Line" before, it took a lot of time. He did all the work on the 170-kilometer-long Northbank Defense Line by himself. His arms were sore when he finished building the line.
At the time, he thought that this must be a wrong way of working.
So, over the past six months, this work model has been improved.
It seems the results are... not bad.
Chen Fan glanced at the Logistics Pavilion Member had already begun marking out areas on and outside the defensive line, nodded in satisfaction, and began constructing the Defensive Structure. The usual routine.
Mortal Domain has its own unique style of interior design.
The Godslayer Cannon are spaced 20 meters apart, totaling 1350.
Anti-Aircraft Cannon, one every 100 meters, totaling 270.
The total cost of building the Godslayer Cannon was 51 million Eerie Stone.
The total cost of building the Anti-Aircraft Cannon is 10 million Eerie Stone.
The entire process proceeded smoothly, and in no time, the Defensive Structure along the 27-kilometer-long "Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line" were all completed. Next...
Now comes the main event.
Chen Fan looked at the somewhat exaggerated "Black Tortoise Cannon" on the Endless Night Lord Panel and laughed. Half a year ago, his biggest gain from going to the "Eternal Night Western Black Tortoise Frontline One" was obtaining this Blue Grade "Defensive Structure"!
Black Tortoise Cannon!
Over the past six months or so.
His main task was to collect rare Exotic Treasure to upgrade the building. These treasures were quite difficult to collect, but he had already established contact with the Eternal Night Hall and, with Old Qiu's help, had collected quite a few.
The next moment.
A Black Tortoise Cannon composed of white lines suddenly appeared in the sky, making the whole scene look like a celestial being descending from heaven. This Black Tortoise was much larger than the "Giant Turtle".
It has not solidified.
Instead, it transforms into countless translucent geometric shapes, constantly decomposing and recombinating in the air.
The Zhong Yi
These translucent geometric shapes neatly covered the surface of the "Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line" City Wall, transforming into raised entities.
It's like an ornament.
This made the Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line appear even more formidable.
Yes.
Without the cannon, the equation is simplified to zero.
Building Name: Black Tortoise Cannon
"Building grade": Blue Grade.
Building Level: 10.
"Architectural Effect": Defensive Structure.
"Max-Level Effect": "Black Tortoise Appears": One of the Four Divine Cannons Divine Cannon, which can be forged simultaneously and then merged into the Heavenly Dao Cannon.
Chen Fan looked at the description of the Black Tortoise Cannon on the Endless Night Lord Panel and laughed. This was the first time he had ever crafted a max-level Black Tortoise Cannon, after all, this Black Tortoise Cannon was a bit picky.
They can only be placed on the Tenth-Level Defense Line.
Lower-level City Wall cannot be installed yet.
He stepped out of the defensive line.
Standing outside the defensive line, looking up at the 200-meter-high Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line standing in the center of the mountain range, the stones that appeared on the surface were originally translucent geometric shapes, which had been transformed into reliefs like ancient stones.
It doesn't look like a cannon at all.
He pulled a Heavenly Dao Stone from his pocket, weighed it in his hand, then took a deep breath, arched his back like a bow, and flung the Heavenly Dao Stone into the air. The next moment!
Another panel popped up in front of me.
"You used the 'Heavenly Dao Stone' on the Black Tortoise Cannon, gaining three Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect. Please choose one within one hundred breaths."
"A building can only have one Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect."
"1: Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect (Black Tortoise's Soul): The consumption of Black Tortoise Cannon will be greatly reduced."
"2: Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect (Black Tortoise Domain): All enemies entering the Black Tortoise Cannon's range will feel a gravitational pull." "3: Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect (Black Tortoise's Death): The Black Tortoise Cannon's power will be slightly increased."
"Um"
These are the two Heavenly Dao Stone he left behind last time, one of which he used on the Black Tortoise Cannon.
All three worked well.
After pondering for a moment, he chose the second Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect, "Black Tortoise Domain".
It's equivalent to a control skill.
He personally doesn't prefer the Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect that reduces consumption, as this can be compensated for with Eerie Stone. However, other Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect cannot be compensated for with Eerie Stone.
After he made that decision.
He gazed longingly at the ancient stones on the "Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line," wondering if he should give it a try. This was the first level 10 Black Tortoise Cannon he had ever built.
It is also the first Black Tortoise Cannon in the Mortal Domain.
This building is quite unique.
Not only does the upgrade lack any direction, it only increases power, which goes without saying—it's practically standard for a decent Defensive Structure. Most importantly, this applies even before it's built.
The panel clearly indicates what materials are needed for the upgrade, and that both the level 1 and level 10 Black Tortoise Cannon can only be placed on Level-10 City Wall.
It's quite heartwarming.
They're afraid that people will work hard to create something only to find it unusable and become furious.
Therefore
He didn't know how powerful the cannon was.
After all, it consumed a lot of his resources. He used 5 million Eerie Stone alone, as well as more than a dozen rare Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. You should know that a fully upgraded Godslayer Cannon only costs less than 40,000 Eerie Stone.
Just then
Suddenly, Little Qiu's voice came from the Message Talisman in his arms. "Domain Lord, a wave of Strange Tide in from outside the defense line."
Chen Fan turned his head and looked into the distance.
At the end of the Eerie Fire, familiar spheres of flesh rolled across the ground in the wind. Several human faces were etched on the surface of the spheres, some crying and some laughing, and they surged toward his newly built defensive line in an extremely eerie manner.
A familiar presence.
The "Meatworm Wraith Tide" only appears during the Rainy Season.
"Good."
He laughed. "Let's test its power with this Meatworm Wraith Tide. We need to know its approximate power and consumption to make it easier to use in the future." He decided to show him the only Blue Grade Defensive Structure in the Mortal Domain.
The power of a fully upgraded Black Tortoise Cannon.
At a command.
The Mortal Domain Member were originally in the marked area of the defensive line did not panic at all. They followed their captain and quickly rode in Gondola to the top of the City Wall. Standing on the edge of the City Wall, they looked at the Meatworm Wraith Tide attacking from afar.
They chatted and laughed together, showing no sign of fear whatsoever.
"Times have really changed."
Standing on the City Wall, Little Qiu, the Logistics Pavilion Master in charge of frontline command, looked at the "Meatworm Wraith Tide" attacking the defense line from afar. From this height, it was like seeing a group of ants preparing to crash into a Sky-Piercing Pillar.
Once Upon a time.
During the Rainy Season, when faced with the Meatworm Wraith Tide, almost everyone was plunged into despair.
But now...
When they faced the Meatworm Wraith Tide again, this group of members who had joined the Mortal Domain later were already chatting and laughing, completely unaware that the Domain Lord had almost died at the hands of the Meatworm Wraith back then.
Chen Fan flew through the air in his Flying Boat, surveying the Meatworm Wraith Tide, and activated the "Black Tortoise Cannon."
The next moment
The "Copper Pipe," which had been flowing with Eerie Fire, suddenly became extremely violent, with countless liquids formed from Eerie Stone visibly surging and churning within it!
The first ancient stone on the surface of the "Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line" City Wall was lit up, emitting a blue light.
Immediately afterwards.
The second, the third, and the fourth.
In the blink of an eye.
The 1,024 ancient stones embedded in the surface of the City Wall were quickly lit up one by one, and these lit stones, like a Black Tortoise, appeared on the entire City Wall.
The "Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line" was built at a gap in the continuous mountain range.
It can be said that...
Ahead lay a massive gap in the Canyon.
At this moment, the Meatworm Wraith Tide was churning and rolling in this huge Canyon gap, heading straight for the defense line.
The next moment
All the ancient stones were illuminated.
"Boom boom"
An invisible shockwave suddenly surged out from the bottom of the "Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line," the sound of which was as if a colossal beast were turning over underground.
A faint roar of Black Tortoise echoed between Heaven and Earth, shaking the very core of humanity.
Each of the ancient stones emitted an Azure Light Pillar. When the 1,024 Azure Light Pillar gathered together, a nearly translucent Azure Black Tortoise suddenly appeared.
He raised his head and roared angrily.
The sound was so real that it left streaks of sound in the air.
A colossal behemoth.
Like Flock of Sheep, it charged into the Meatworm Wraith Tide. Each slap it delivered killed a large number of Meatworm Wraith, and the self-destruction of the Meatworm Wraith before their deaths was completely ignored by the Azure Black Tortoise.
The enormous behemoth had a chassis width of several hundred meters.
Chen Fan, who had already landed on the defensive line, stared intently at the scene. Without hesitation, he immediately activated the Godslayer Cannon to bombard the Azure Black Tortoise. Dozens of Godslayer Cannon began to bombard the Azure Black Tortoise relentlessly.
However.
The cannonball did not cause any damage to the Azure Black Tortoise; it passed through the Azure Black Tortoise and fell into the Strange Tide.
Just as he predicted.
This Azure Black Tortoise is not only completely immune to enemy attacks, but also completely immune to attacks from the defensive line. After all, this Black Tortoise has no physical form and, like the Copper Pipe, exists in an illusory state.
"That's pretty awesome!"
Chen Fan murmured in a daze.
The Black Tortoise Cannon's attack method is not Golden Light Pillar, but rather it summons a gigantic, extremely powerful, and illusory Azure Black Tortoise, naturally making it invincible.
There is only one way for the Azure Black Tortoise to die: when its energy is exhausted.
There is no possibility of being killed.
Of course, it wasn't very effective against the tide of "Meatworm Wraith." Many of the Meatworm Wraith broke through the Azure Black Tortoise and crashed into the base of the City Wall, turning into a sky full of Green Grade slime.
However, it is used to deal with large-scale Strange Tide that have many Wraith Kings and Greater Wraith.
It is indeed quite useful.
If you put him in the perspective of the Strange Tide, encountering such an unkillable guy during a siege would be a real headache.
As the Meatworm Wraith Tide approached the defensive line, it seemed as if the music was playing in slow motion, their rolling speed decreasing considerably. This was the Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect from the Black Tortoise Cannon taking effect.
"Good!"
Chen Fan laughed. Whether it was good or not depended on the consumption. He looked at the Endless Night Lord Panel. This Black Tortoise Cannon had consumed 1 million Eerie Stone. Not bad.
It wasn't as expensive as he had imagined.
The Black Tortoise Cannon on the Endless Night Lord Panel clearly states that it can be activated at any time without cooling down, meaning that as long as he has enough Eerie Stone, the Black Tortoise Cannon can fire a hundred times simultaneously.
Then hundreds of illusory Azure Black Tortoise will rampage and trample in the Strange Tide.
Soon.
With the Meatworm Wraith Tide cleared, the "Azure Black Tortoise," having lost its target, lay motionless on the ground, only slowly dissipating into the air after a long while. (Two incense sticks burned.)
Chen Fan glanced at the two incense sticks that had burned out beside him. The Azure Black Tortoise's duration was about two incense sticks, which was quite long. However...
I don't know its exact power, nor whether it can defeat the Greater Wraith. It's a pity there's no Greater Wraith for him to conduct an experiment on.
At this moment.
All Mortal Domain Member at the "Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line" have been deployed and are now in their respective positions. Even the Cafeteria has started cooking.
This defense line is ready to operate normally at any time.
Copper Pipe connects this place to Nameless Mountain.
Whether it's support from Eerie Stone or High-Speed Rail, it can arrive in the first instance.
There is still one problem.
That is.
Who is in charge of this line of defense?
The individual Pavilion Master are definitely not suitable, as they all hold important positions in the Mortal Domain and don't have the time or energy to come here. Lower-level Mortal Domain Member are also unsuitable. The person in charge of a defense line must have sufficient management skills, deployment experience, and a certain level of mental resilience, as well as the ability to make emergency decisions in special circumstances. They must also have a thorough understanding of the overall situation of the Eternal Night Continent and the current state of the Mortal Domain.
This person was not easy to find.
The Mortal Domain is still too young to have developed properly and has too few talented individuals.
On the Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line.
This is the second line of defense built by the Mortal Domain, and it is an extremely important moment. Apart from Wang Kui staying at Nameless Mountain to oversee the allocation of various supplies, almost all the other Pavilion Master have come.
"Tell me, who's in charge of this defense line?"
Chen Fan looked at the group of Pavilion Master. These were all core members of the Mortal Domain. It could be said that the death of any one of them would have a significant impact on the Mortal Domain. They usually had a very high level of security when they went out.
"Wouldn't it be better to..."
Qi Chong hesitated and asked, "Should we let the original person in charge of the Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line manage this?"
"Although he may seem a bit simple-minded, not Open Gate even when the Domain Lord himself arrives, this quality is commendable for a leader of a defense line." I believe that a leader of a defense line should act in this way, and even if a powerful enemy attacks, the Open Gate without orders from their direct superior.
"Kindness"
After pondering for a moment, Chen Fan shook his head and rejected the suggestion. "No, the Mortal Domain will be taking over 'Defense Line Seven,' the Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line, and Defense Line Seven. These two defense lines are crucial to Western Wasteland Island and to the Mortal Domain."
"This determines whether we can stay in a sufficiently safe area."
"Only by making the Headquarters secure enough, like an iron barrel, will the Mortal Domain have fewer constraints when doing things outside, and can do whatever it wants."
"So"
"The people in charge of these two lines of defense must be Trust and have a certain understanding of the situation in the Mortal Domain. If you put him in charge, he wouldn't know how much the Godslayer Cannon consumes, how fast the logistics in the Mortal Domain are, he'd know nothing and be completely in the dark."
"But"
"What you said makes sense. After all, this person Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line Commander. We should bring him over first, as a talent reserve."
Immediately afterwards.
He took out the Parent-Child Stone from his pocket, contacted Old Qiu, and quickly established communication. He cleared his throat and said, "Old Qiu, how many people do you need?"
"Just ask, you can have whatever you want."
Old Qiu's hearty laughter echoed from within the Parent-Child Stone.
"Thanks to you, I'm now praised wherever I go in the Eternal Night Hall. Many on the Frontline envy the 'Mortal Domain's' support for the 'Eternal Night Western Black Tortoise Frontline One'."
Everyone asks me when they can also enjoy the light of the Mortal Domain.
"You're quite well-known in the Eternal Night Hall, aren't you?"
"But.,
"The Strange Entity Clan has noticed you too. Try to make some preparations. Tell the Eternal Night Hall if you need anything, and help as much as you can." "Let me tell you, you can't let your guard down. Although it's just transporting food, which may seem insignificant to the Strange Entity Clan, they might suddenly go crazy and come looking for you again."
"Certainly."
Chen Fan glanced at the level 10 Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line beneath him. "Don't worry, I remember what you said before you left: protect yourself first, then you can protect the Eternal Night Continent."
"I'm doing everything I can to protect myself."
But it still doesn't feel quite enough.
"I'd like to ask if your Eternal Night Hall needs some manpower."
"You say."
"Give me both 'Elder Seven,' the head of Defense Line Seven, and 'Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line Commander,' the Mortal Domain defense line."
A sudden silence fell across from the Parent-Child Stone. After a long while, Old Qiu's voice rang out. "Domain Lord Chen, so these two lines of defense are suddenly without anyone in charge?"
"The Mortal Domain will take over."
"You mean, the Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line Commander will also be in charge of your newly created 'Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line'?"
"More or less," Chen Fan gave a vague answer.
"Actually, I was just about to ask this: the Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line is a level 6 defense line. Is the defense line you built stronger than a level 6 defense line?"
"Nature."
"Then why don't you build it on the foundation of the Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line? I could simply give this defense line to your Mortal Domain."
"The foundation is too weak."
Chen Fan curled his lip. How much potential could a defensive line without even a single, uniform Wraith Blood Pattern have?
Level-10 City Wall is the maximum level.
In the New Continent, all seven Level-10 City Wall have fallen. The only way to prevent its defenses from falling is to increase the upper limit. Since level 11 is not an option, this "Wraith Blood Pattern" becomes especially important.
It can be said that...
Tenth-Level Defense Line without the Wraith Blood Pattern is not a true max-level defense line.
Almost there, it falls short of the upper limit.
After a long silence, Old Qiu, standing opposite the Parent-Child Stone, finally spoke, "Personnel transfers are not the prerogative of the Eternal Night Hall Western Operations Group, especially not the decision-making power of the overall head of the defense line."
"But"
"The Eternal Night Hall Western Strategic Office is having drinks with me. He's in charge of personnel scheduling. Let him talk to you about it..."
Before he could finish speaking...
A noticeably older and impatient voice rang out from within the Parent-Child Stone: "Domain Lord Chen, I am aware of the Soul-Devouring Sculpture you sent to support the 'Eternal Night Western Black Tortoise Frontline One' tonight."
"It's not support, it's selling."
"Okay, for sale, 100,000 Eerie Stone per sculpture, right? My question is... could you send these Soul-Devouring Sculpture to other Frontline in the Western Region?"
"This building is very important to us."
"Of course, but it will take a little time."
"Good!
The aged voice from within the Parent-Child Stone declared decisively, "It's yours. The Defense Line Seven and the Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line are all yours. The defense lines are yours too. From now on, Western Wasteland Island belongs to your Mortal Domain. I will issue the order now."
After saying that, he quickly hung up the call, not giving Chen Fan a chance to reply.
Chen Fan's lips twitched slightly. It seemed the Frontline was indeed tense; even such important figures were resorting to such petty tricks.
He only needs two people.
Give him so many people.
It's obvious that the Eternal Night Hall can't supply them anymore, so they've simply sold everything off.
That works too.
All members of these two lines of defense do not receive a monthly salary; they joined voluntarily, so the pressure on them is not that great.
Meals are all you need.
In terms of providing meals, the Mortal Domain will definitely do a good job.
"Call that guy over here."
The Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line Commander looked at the Mortal Domain Member who had come to inform him. Although he didn't know what had happened, he still sat on the Gondola with some trepidation and arrived at the top of the "Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line" City Wall.
I saw the management team of Mortal Domain gathered together, exchanging ideas.
"Domain Lord Chen, you were looking for me."
"Um."
Chen Fan glanced at the man casually. "Pay attention to your messages."
Ah, oh.
Although the Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line Commander did not know what had happened, he still subconsciously held the Parent-Child Stone in his hand. Soon, the Parent-Child Stone became hot, and a drunken Elderly Man's voice came from inside.
"Zhang Qiuba, I am the Eternal Night Hall Western Strategic Office."
"Issue the order now."
"I will obey." Zhang Qiuba's expression instantly turned serious. He quickly retreated to the side, away from Chen Fan and the others. It wasn't his superior who contacted him; it was the Strategy Hall who personally contacted him, so there must be an important mission to be assigned.
"From this day forward, you are expelled from the Eternal Night Hall."
The Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line Commander stood frozen in place, subconsciously glancing down at the mother -Parent-Child Stone in his hand, wondering if it was fake, what kind of thing it was.
A high-ranking official contacted him, bypassing his direct supervisor, just to tell him, "You've been fired?"
"You and everyone at the Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line, join the 'Mortal Domain'."
Before he could reply, the call was disconnected.
Before he could react...
Chen Fan walked over and smiled at him, "You received the letter, right? Go back now. Compile a list of everyone at your Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line, including any special Cultivator, Builder, and the like. Then tell everyone to prepare dinner."
I made some late-night snacks, Yangchun Noodles.
"Press on your stomach."
After resolving this matter, Chen Fan returned to Qi Chong and the others, instructing them, "After Zhang Qiuba joins the Mortal Domain, Zhou Mo, you will be in charge of mentoring him and giving him a general understanding of the Mortal Domain."
"By the way, the Builder of the Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line have also been tallied up."
These Builder are a considerable asset to Mortal Domain.
It can be used for many things.
"By the way"
"And these special Cultivator will be accepted as official members of the Mortal Domain, but you must ensure information is blocked. News of the New Continent should be kept as secret as possible; this will remain the responsibility of your Shadow Pavilion."
News of the New Continent was known to many official members of the Mortal Domain.
After all, many people were bathed in that Golden Rain of the New Continent at that time.
In particular, one can often see high -High-Speed Rail loaded with Eerie Stone departing from the Harbor.
It's very difficult to completely suppress the news.
The Shadow Pavilion is responsible for internal oversight.
He could manage to keep it a secret for now, but he didn't expect to keep it a secret forever. He just needed to keep it a secret for a while. Once the Mortal Domain had built the Western Wasteland Island into a powerful trio, what could the Strange Entity Clan do to him even if they found out?
The night slowly passed.
At dawn.
The aroma of Yangchun Noodles wafted between the two lines of defense.
Dinner is served.
With just a simple garnish of chopped scallions, it may look a bit bland, but for the original group at the Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line, it was an absolute delicacy. The Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line has been officially completed.
Now.
The Mortal Domain already has two Tenth-Level Defense Line: the Northbank Defense Line and the Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line.
Daylight broke.
Chen Fan had returned to the "Northbank Defense Line" and stood on the Northbank Defense Line City Wall, looking down at the members of various factions below who were collecting the Eerie Stone. The Logistics Pavilion was conducting a population census.
After compiling the headcount...
Then some members of the Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line and the Defense Line Seven can be sent to the Northbank Defense Line to take charge of daily work, and then these forces will no longer need to send people to support them.
This could liberate the forces in the West Pass Plains and other regions.
He weighed the Heavenly Dao Stone in his hand.
This is the last Heavenly Dao Stone in the Mortal Domain. Heavenly Dao Stone are really hard to obtain.
"The last one."
Chen Fan looked at the Heavenly Dao Stone in his hand with some emotion, and then slammed it heavily onto the City Wall beneath him.
The next moment
Another panel popped up in front of me.
"You used the 'Heavenly Dao Stone' on the City Wall, gaining three Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect. Please choose one within one hundred breaths."
"A building can only have one Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect."
"1: Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect (Indestructible): The defense of the City Wall will be slightly increased."
"2: Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect (Majestic and Magnificent): The City Wall will appear more majestic, and the effects of each upgrade path will be slightly improved." "3: Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect (Impenetrable Fortress): The City Wall will be immune to 50% of ranged attacks."
After pondering for a while, Chen Fan chose the second Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect.
When the City Wall is upgraded to level 8.
His chosen upgrade direction was. "Enhance the Vein Patterns effects on the City Wall."
Combined with this Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect.
The effect of the Vein Patterns will be enhanced again, since the Wraith Blood Pattern is one of the upgrade directions. These can all increase the power of the Vein Patterns, and other upgrade directions will also be slightly improved.
For example.
"Thorn Counterarmor" and "Great Wall" are examples.
These improvements enhance the overall defense line.
The next moment.
The Northbank Defense Line beneath his feet, along with the Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line, began to sway slightly. It didn't increase in height, but it felt subtly more majestic. At the same time, the City Wall were upgraded to level 10.
Not only has the height increased, but the width of the top of the City Wall has also increased significantly. At this point, the width of the City Wall is sufficient for dozens of Mortal Domain High-Speed Rail to travel side by side.
After doing all this.
He then turned and gazed in the direction of the "Guandong Plains".
The Defense Line Seven is 97 kilometers long.
The distance is relatively long.
Building a 97-kilometer-long Tenth-Level Defense Line from scratch would require a total of 9.27 billion Eerie Stone and 873,000 Monkey-Head Fruit. The Mortal Domain's resources are insufficient.
The Mortal Domain currently has only 7.3 billion Eerie-Stone Reserves and 537,000 Monkey-Head Fruit in reserve.
He couldn't possibly use all the Eerie Stone to build a defensive line. Firing the defensive line would also consume resources. Furthermore, building a defensive line wasn't just about constructing City Wall; it also required a host of infrastructure such as the Godslayer Cannon, the Black Tortoise Cannon, Altar, and Eerie Fire.
For now, we don't have enough Eerie Stone.
Give him another six months, that should be enough.
He can completely seal the three gaps in "Western Wasteland Island".
Western Wasteland Island is not the Frontline.
The Main Force of the Strange Entity Clan is not here, but he did build these three lines of defense according to the strength of the Frontline, so that even if the Strange Entity Clan sneaks in again, the Strange Tide that sneaks in will not be able to break through his defenses.
He needs to protect himself first before recklessly supporting other lines of defense.
Hopefully, this year's Rainy Season will pass peacefully.
Standing on the City Wall, Chen Fan murmured to himself, "As long as we get through this year's Rainy Season safely, then next year, the Mortal Domain can officially be put on the table and can officially participate in the battle against the Strange Entity Clan."
He turned his head and looked Behind Nameless Mountain.
There.
The two "Mortal Domain Missile Storage Base" are stationed there steadily, continuously charging, and will be fully charged once this Rainy Season ends. Squeak, squeak
On an Island surrounded by the sea, countless little monkeys are busy planting saplings.
This is an Island untouched by the invasion of the Strange Entity Clan.
Even when the Undersea Strange Tide landed, not a single Strange Entities approached this place, as if it were a paradise forgotten by humankind.
What was supposed to be a peaceful yet busy day.
The conversation was suddenly broken by a low growl.
Weiwei, alone, stepped off the Mortal Domain High-Speed Rail platform and gazed at a busy little monkey, letting out a satisfied growl. The next moment...
A little monkey excitedly darted and leaped quickly among the tree branches, arriving beside Weiwei.
Weiwei, open your mouth! A huge amount of Braised Delicacies poured out from the Mustard-Seed Space in your arms.
"Roar."
He let out another low growl.
As if giving a word of advice to get back to work, he made another round of inspections before returning to the platform to board the Mortal Domain High-Speed Rail to the New Great World. Since these monkeys were incorporated into the Mortal Domain, they haven't been idle, and they no longer fight each other, so the birth rate has naturally increased. Especially...
Chen Fan specifically built a "Exotic Beast Breeding House" on this Island and in the New Great World.
This building, being a complete structure, was Heavenly Dao's Blessing and thus received the same Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect.
