Things did not continue to go to the worst direction. In the past two months, Zhang Changkong closely patrolled and supported the twenty-six cities. Although the beast tide put a lot of pressure on the defenders of various cities in Miaoshan, they still managed to survive. Made it through.
This is because there is no second super-sized beast around these twenty-six cities.
After lasting for three months, the beast tide finally showed signs of ending. If it didn't end, the people in the cities in Miao Mountain would almost collapse.
Another month later, the beast tide finally ended. Communication roads were finally opened between the twenty-six cities again, and Miaoshan City's resources were continuously transported to the other twenty-five cities.
Camellia Peak.
Zhang Changkong took a letter from a windmill dragonfly knight who reported the news, opened it and read it.
"Finally here", Zhang Changkong flew to Miaoshan City on the Golden Needle Wasp.
As soon as Zhang Changkong stepped into the Lord's Mansion of Miaoshan City, he immediately saw Master Qingsong who was drinking tea.
"Master Qingsong, I finally see you." Zhang Changkong raised his hand, "I wonder when the formation nodes in my four cities will be repaired?"
Master Qingsong glanced at Zhang Changkong and said: "The four cities where your formation nodes were destroyed will no longer be repaired. Not only your four, but during this period, more than 40 cities around Shiwan Conglin were destroyed. Destroy these cities, I will only repair a limited number of them."
Zhang Changkong frowned. This was something he had not expected, and asked, "Why? Could it be that the formation nodes that will be destroyed in the future will not be repaired?"
Master Qingsong said: "There are 18,000 formation nodes, which means that there are more than 18,000 cities. With so many cities, it is basically impossible to defend them all. However, the formation of the realm formation only requires Twelve thousand nodes are enough, so over the years, we will gradually give up 6,000 cities."
Zhang Changkong was a little puzzled: "There are only about a hundred cities outside the Shiwan Conglin. It has only been two years and so much has been given up. After eight years, will there still be a city outside the Shiwan Conglin?"
Master Qingsong said: "The realm formation gathers the essence of the earth, and its other function is to gather vitality. The loss of these two energies will definitely stimulate the hundreds of thousands of ferocious beasts in the forest, so our Seven Star Sect has long decided We have to give up some cities every year to appease the ferocious beasts from the forest. Otherwise, a large number of ferocious beasts from the forest will be a big trouble for our Seven Star Sect. In fact, ten thousand ferocious beasts will come out of the forest in large numbers. It is impossible for Wan Cong Lin to survive in more than a hundred cities. You also know that this place is not suitable for human survival at all, because beast waves break out from time to time in Wan Cong Lin. If humans want to survive here, they will definitely need the help of our Seven Star Sect. Warlocks are here to guard it for a long time, and our Seven Star Sect cannot send too many people to guard it for a long time, so after ten years, it will be enough for there to be three or five cities around here."
When Zhang Changkong heard this, his face turned ugly, "Does this mean that the earth essence I get will become less and less every year?"
Master Qingsong said calmly: "Theoretically, this is correct."
"You know, I won't come here around the 100,000 Conglin. With my strength, I can guard at least 70 or 80 cities in other places, and I can get much more earth essence than I do now." Zhang Changkong said a little Regretful, he felt that he had been deceived by the photo mage.
"It's wrong to think so. Do you think other cities also have so much earth essence every month? Except for the cities around dangerous areas that gather a little more earth essence, other cities in safer locations can harvest a lot of earth essence. There are not many Liao Liao, so you don’t have to regret it. I also know a little about your strength. In the future, when the realm formation enters the second phase of construction and the various heavenly gates are set up, you will still have the opportunity to obtain the essence of the earth, so don’t worry." , Master Qingsong said.
After listening to what Master Qingsong said, Zhang Changkong felt better. He really had no plans to be promoted to a mage in a short time. He would be promoted to a mage at least seventeen years later. There was plenty of time, so there was no need to be in such a hurry. Besides, As long as the remaining twenty-six cities are defended longer, they may not get enough earth essence.
"By the way, Master Qingsong, what are you doing here this time?"
Zhang Changkong asked.
"It's like this. This time, a ferocious beast came out of the beast wave, as well as some relatively powerful beasts, which caused us a lot of damage. In order to prevent this from happening again, I deliberately got rid of the sect. A friend of mine has refined a set of simple communication talismans." Master Qingsong said, taking out a jade talisman, and then said: "If you encounter a vicious beast, you can input mana into the jade talisman, and I will know. , and rushed over quickly. Of course, only ferocious beasts can ask for help from me. If it is a strange beast or the like, you can only find a way on your own."
"Oh, is there such a convenient thing?" Zhang Changkong thought, the Seven Star Sect has probably lost a lot of warlocks in the past two years, otherwise it would not have come up with such a talisman, whether it was the Xiangshan Sect or the Seven Star Sect. Well, Zhang Changkong has seen a lot of those mages. Although they seem to be kind, they actually don't pay much attention to warlocks. In their eyes, warlocks are probably no different from mortal warriors, just like warlocks ignore mortals. , the mages also ignored the warlocks. If the Seven Stars Sect really valued the warlocks, such help or other life-saving tools would have been provided to the warlocks long ago.
Master Qingsong simply said a few useless words and then left. He did not say whether he killed the ferocious beast that escaped or drove it back to Shiwan Conglin.
After Zhang Changkong waited for Master Qingsong to leave, he glanced at the object in his hand that was similar to a jade talisman. This object could deal with possible attacks by the kings of the Feiyu clan. At least the kings could not keep chasing Zhang Changkong after the attack. endlessly.
Another half month later, after Zhang Changkong saw that the cities under his command were relatively stable, he decided to go to the empty island to practice. He only needed to come out every three or two months to collect the earth essence.
Just do what you want, after cleaning up at Shancha Peak and letting the Death Moth take an eye on the giant skeleton snake, Zhang Changkong rode the Golden Needle Wasp and flew directly towards the Lost Forest.
Four days later, Zhang Changkong returned to Kongdao.
At this time, there were not many changes on the empty island, but after Zhang Changkong carefully let the Golden Scarabs fly around, he found that the three golden scarabs fell into a deep sleep again.
The last time they were sleeping and transforming was many years ago in Miaoshan Square in the Sanhe Rainforest. This time, I wonder what changes they will have? Zhang Changkong naturally hopes that they will become king insects in one step, but when you think about it, the hope is a bit slim. After all, the golden scarabs are even weaker than the steel king.
