Chapter 201

"Buzz..."

The view rose like a kite, gradually ascending to a height of several hundred meters, taking in the entire territory.

The Great Bonfire, now at level 3, was even brighter, its flames illuminating an area of 700 meters in radius as if it were daytime.

On the outer perimeter, a towering, gray-white wall, reaching a height of 6 meters, encircles the entire territory.

The surface of the city wall has raised spikes and nodes, which conceal trigger-based damage-reflecting mechanisms.

Whenever an enemy attempts to climb or ram the city wall, spikes will instantly spring out, delivering a devastating blow.

Dozens of white lighthouses are evenly distributed along the city wall, their bright white beams piercing through the fog and slowly rotating, providing excellent visibility for the patrolling guards.

With the current size of the territory, there's no longer a need to be on guard against monster attacks from the mist day and night, as before.

If any wandering monsters dare to approach, the arrow towers alone can shoot them down from a distance, keeping them out of the firelight's reach.

"However... I've heard that monster hordes occur in the Land of Mist every so often."

"Unlike this Rain God expansion, the heavy rain only makes the monsters more ferocious; their numbers remain largely unchanged."

"And the so-called monster tide is said to consist of at least tens of thousands of them, and is extremely ferocious."

"So we still can't let our guard down. We need to continue developing our territory, upgrading more arrow towers and walls, and building more cannons."

Lord Shen thought to himself.

Then he opened his backpack and took out the black metal sphere.

The sphere trembled in the air for a moment, then exploded with a "bang".

In an instant, a large pile of black scrolls, Hellfire Seed, stones, and other materials were scattered all over the ground.

Shen Xing waved his hand and put all these things back into his backpack.

[Received: Black Moon Knight Recruitment Scroll *100]

[Received: Advanced Blacksmith's Manual (Gold) *1]

[Received: 500 Dark Steel]

[Received: 500 Fel Stone]

[Received: 500 Hellfire Seed]

"Great, all 500 sets of materials and other resources have arrived."

"Logan is now a high-level blacksmith, and the materials are all ready. We can start mass-producing [Hell War Chariot]."

Shen Xing was quite satisfied with the efficiency of the Anomaly Handling Bureau.

In just two days, I had everything I needed.

However... there's still a problem.

So, Logan has already reached the advanced level. Is this blacksmith's manual still useful to him?

After a moment's thought, Shen Xing decided to go and ask him directly.

If you don't need it, put it on Zhuanzhuan... no, put it on a trading platform for recycling.

Pushing the small wheelchair, they strolled leisurely towards the blacksmith's shop.

Upon reaching the door, he shouted inside, "Logan, Logan, come out quickly!"

The hammering stopped abruptly, the blacksmith shop shook, and a huge head popped out from the doorway.

"Oh! It's Lord!" Logan greeted him as he squeezed out, "What are you like today...?"

"Alright, shut up." Shen Xing interrupted directly, asking, "How many Demon Turret and practice shells do we have left?"

He gave one to Xu Jiayi and Qin Lang each yesterday, and he doesn't know how many are left in the territory.

Logan replied, "There are still 5 Demon Turret left, and over 200 practice shells. The reserves are quite plentiful."

"So many?" Shen Xing was somewhat surprised.

"Haha, definitely!" Logan patted his chest confidently, "The lord has upgraded my forging skills to the advanced level, and my efficiency has also increased significantly."

"We can now build two or three Demon Turret a day."

Shen Xing nodded in satisfaction and continued, "Alright, now pause the Demon Turret and focus on building a few Hell War Chariot. The materials are ready."

"No problem!" Logan readily agreed, "Building this advanced vehicle will also allow me to increase my proficiency."

"However, the manufacturing speed isn't that fast; it takes two days to build one unit."

One Hell War Chariot every two days sounds a bit slow, but it's still within an acceptable range.

After all, this is a gold-level troop transport vehicle.

Shen Xing took out the old-fashioned red handbook from his pocket and asked, "Is this handbook still useful to you?"

"This is... the life's work of a master blacksmith?"

Logan's one eye darted around, staring intently at the manual in Shen Xing's hand, and he exclaimed excitedly, "It's useful! Of course it's useful!"

"Although I am already a senior blacksmith, this manual contains unique insights from other blacksmiths, which are of great reference value to me."

"If I can learn from this experience, maybe one day I can break through the bottleneck and become a true senior blacksmith."

"Combined with the unique abilities of our territory, one could even directly become a Master Rank blacksmith."

"Since it's useful, you can keep it." Shen Xing handed over the manual and all the materials for building the Hell War Chariot.

"Thank you so much." Logan accepted the gift with both hands, his single eye filled with gratitude. "I swear, I will forge even more and stronger equipment for you in the future."

"By the way, my lord, you must listen to me..."

"I won't listen."

Shen Xing ignored him and pushed her wheelchair away.

Next, as usual, he collected the well water produced in the Moon Well.

Then I glanced at the Golden Ancient Tree growing quietly in the open space next to me.

Its towering forty-meter-high trunk has become the tallest building in the entire territory. Its lush foliage casts shadows in the Bonfire, and the tips of its leaves shimmer with a dark golden luster.

After finishing all that, Shen Xing found Da Hou and began completing his daily tasks for the day.

Life-Sacrifice Evolution, give me some points!

"Buzz..."

A familiar red light descended, enveloping the double-axe orc.

In the light, Da Hou roared, howled, and cheered with excitement.

Finally, after overcoming countless hardships, surviving the great tribulations of the mortal world, and passing the trials of inner demons.

He Da Hou, "Supreme One, I've broken through!"

[Ding! Evolution successful! Your territory member: Da Hou has successfully advanced to Boss One Star ★★!]

[This evolution: All attributes +10%, Agility +100]

[Activate Skill: Call of the Wild - Porcupine]

The attributes of this new skill are exactly as they sound.

It can summon 1-2 Elite One Star porcupines of the same level to assist in battle.

These porcupines possess skills such as 'Spike Launch', 'Hardened Fur', and 'Savage Charge', making them quite formidable on the battlefield.

After finishing these tasks, Shen Xing took out one hundred black scrolls from his backpack, his expression gradually becoming serious.

"I, the Wheelchair Heavenly Emperor, Lord of the Orcs, Guardian of the Golden Tree, Favored by the Rain God... Summon from the Land of Mist!"

"Departed souls, continue the unfinished vow!"

"Summoning of Heroic Spirits!"

As soon as he finished speaking, all the black scrolls flew into the sky and quickly unfurled in mid-air.

"Whoosh..."

A full hundred six-pointed star projections fell, transforming into a hundred jet-black pillars of light.

"Tap tap... tap tap..."

The sound of rapid hoofbeats rose, as if a silent cavalry legion was descending from another world.

As the light faded, a hundred Black Moon Knight, riding black warhorses, clad in black armor, and wielding spears or longswords, suddenly appeared.

[Ding! Your territory now has over 30 Black Moon Knight, activating the synergy: Charge speed increased by 20%!]

[Ding! The Black Moon Knight has exceeded 50, activating the synergy effect: Strength +20]

[Ding! The Black Moon Knight has exceeded 100, activating the 100-Knight Bond: Black Moon Roulette (When Charge, the Black Moon's gravity absorption range increases by 50%, and its absorption power increases by 30%.)]

"Oh? Increased absorption range and absorption power, this hundred-person synergy is pretty strong."

Shen Xing had personally experienced the terrifying sight of the Black Moon Knights charging into Charge.

It was as if an invisible vortex was pulling the surrounding enemies, drawing them to the Knights, only to have them instantly killed.

Now that the absorption range and suction power have been increased, it's even more terrifying.

By charging back and forth on the battlefield twice, one can eliminate countless enemies.

"Furthermore, Black Moon Knight are a unit with extremely low resource consumption; they hardly eat anything."

"Because of the [Black Moon Breathing Technique], they can absorb the Power of the Black Moon to restore their strength at night by circulating the breathing technique, making them a truly all-around unit."

"It's a pity that we can only replenish our troops through recruitment scrolls."

Shen Xing was slightly disappointed, then called Xiao Hei over and took the group of new recruits away for special training.

After finishing all that, he didn't even have time to rest.

"Buzzing..."

My phone vibrated slightly in my pocket; it was a message from Xia Wanyin.

Take Her Eyes With You, she said, "Good morning, Shen Xing. I'm about to come find you. Are you online yet?"

"Good morning, I'm already online. Just come over." Shen Xing replied.

"Okay, I'm coming right now."

A few minutes later, a squad of Light Spirit escorted a girl in a white dress into the territory.

Shen Xing.

Xia Wanyin waved her little hand, her eyes vacant, and she ran towards him with a smile on her face.

But before she could get close, a red figure flashed past her.
