The next day, even Rhodes felt a little weak.
Molly, who had unlocked all the movements, was very tired. After taking a hot bath, she came to Rhodes again, pressed against his strong chest for a while, and said with some disappointment: "The psychic power has not increased."
Rhodes said slightly angrily: "Do you think I'm a breeding pig? Will this improve my strength? Then I won't go to heaven?"
Molly was silent for a moment and then suddenly said: "Is it because I'm not a virgin...I'll go find a few..."
This was so frustrating that Rhodes couldn't help but shouted: "That's enough! Molly, people are not tools. If there is no bottom line, even if we achieve a temporary victory, we will eventually fall into darkness."
Molly was silent for a few seconds and said softly: "Rod, you don't know true despair. In such a crisis, what is this? Flesh and bones cannibalize each other, souls eat each other's souls, and people fall like wheat. …”
"Do you know how big a ball of blood and flesh of a million people was when the outer city was breached seven years ago? A hundred yards... It's only as big as a hundred yards. If you've seen that bloody ball of flesh, you won't know how big it is. I won’t have any psychological burden on this matter.”
Rhodes covered his forehead and sighed: "I'm sorry, I can't imagine... But let me tell you, it really has nothing to do with what you think. At most, it has a little bit on the psychological level, and it's just my feelings for you. "
Molly suddenly showed a little smile. Although it was fleeting, she did smile.
"I see."
She stood up, put on her clothes, put on her black silk stockings, and her gold-rimmed glasses, and became the delicate, serious and powerful female assistant again.
"lets go."
He leaned over, kissed Rhodes' forehead gently, and then went out.
——
——
When Rhodes went out, the team had already assembled.
Due to the good weather, monster activity tends to be dormant. Fanxing Town does not need too many personnel to stay. It only needs to leave early warning personnel and certain combat personnel to guard against the doomsday cultists.
In the square, five thousand combatants were gearing up and could not wait any longer.
This time the target is the Blackwater Swamp to the north.
Since there are no powerful monsters, Rhodes does not plan to use the super thunder stone. Five thousand people directly push forward to destroy the monsters, purify the land, ignite the flames, and disperse the black mist.
The entire process from clearance to occupation is a systematic work that requires the full cooperation of all types of personnel.
Today's Fanxing Town system is complete and fully capable.
Rhode gave the order, and the team with high morale set off immediately.
Five thousand lanterns formed a long dragon of fire, penetrating from Star Town into the black mist.
The scene was very spectacular, and the onlookers all felt excited and cheered one after another.
And the entire battle process was as devastating as expected.
O'Hara, Conder, and Baywood took the lead in the charge, and the lights like a long dragon penetrated into the black water swamp.
This eerie, muddy area welcomes the long-lost breath of humanity, and the glow of fire and psychic energy illuminates the black mud puddles that have never seen the light of day.
The most dangerous things in the blackwater swamp are these black cement pools.
Black waters are the most ominous of taboos, they are poisons that extinguish fires.
Rainfall in Trorian is a disaster because all that falls is black rain.
When it drips on people, it rots skin and flesh; when it drips on houses, it corrodes walls and columns.
If it drips into fire, it will cause fatal weakening.
Rhodes has not seen any rain so far, not because it doesn't rain, but because there are people who predict rain disasters, and there are people who stop the black rain in mid-air.
But there is no way to prevent rainfall in areas outside Trorian. Some areas are low-lying areas where rainwater naturally collects. Over time, these areas have formed very dangerous sewage areas.
For example, Blackwater Swamp.
The monsters here are actually not strong, they are only strong because of their highly polluted environment.
But Rhodes was already prepared.
【Tears of the Goddess】
Dream creations can dispel pollution curses and purify souls. The effect is much stronger than the royal city creations at the same price. The key is that they are cheap. Only one perfect teardrop stone and three starlight fragments can be used to create a tube.
"God's Coming"
After diluting it, it has excellent effects whether taken or sprinkled on the ground.
Rhodes had already asked Mavis to make a lot of raw materials for him. Now five thousand people not only have one tube per person, but Annabeth has also dragged a cauldron taller than a house, which is full of [Tears of the Goddess] .
Of course, she was extremely unhappy when Rhodes used her as a horse-drawn carriage.
People and horses also have dignity, right? Good-for-nothings also have personalities, okay?
However, she was still quite happy after Rhodes gave her the Holy White Tree Fruit that could improve her properties.
Aren’t horses meant to pull carts?
Aren't centaurs horses?
I pulled a cart for five thousand people, am I proud?
After taking care of Annabeth, the rest of the work is Mavis's.
Although [Tears of the Goddess] is very effective and has a large quantity, it is unrealistic to purify the entire Blackwater Swamp at once.
To do this, the Holy White Tree must be planted, and it can be completely eliminated after a long period of purification known as the miracle of life.
Therefore, Mavis needs to freeze the ground with ice to avoid direct contact with the black water to isolate it from pollution.
Mavis worked hard and never complained. Even when Rhodes went to find her, she found out immediately.
"You smell like another woman."
Rhodes didn't explain and gave her a big hug.
"But all I really care about is you, right? My best mate."
Mavis didn't reply, but just broke away his hand that instinctively slid downwards.
The treatment she received here was already the best. Not only was she built the best production workshop and provided with the best instruments and tools, but she was even given a weekly salary of eight million silver ropes in advance.
Although Rhodes himself was glib, he was sincere and friendly enough, and he didn't even look at aliens or monsters strangely.
This is the greatest warmth Mavis has ever felt from Rhodes.
She cherished this companion, nothing more, no matter how many women he had.
Along the way, Mavis displayed abilities beyond imagination, and the biting cold air blew like a storm, freezing the entire Blackwater Swamp ground into ice.
Ice inherently has a sealing effect, and pollution is firmly isolated.
The pollution carried by monsters that have lived in the black water environment for a long time can be removed with [Tears of the Goddess].
The whole battle process went smoother than expected. The moment when the stars shine is a relatively powerful frontal weather. Although its main effect is at night and tends to be mysterious and prophetic, its bonus to fire and light is also relatively high. , the suppression effect on darkness is equally outstanding.
The abilities of all warriors have been improved to varying degrees, their psychic powers are active, and their lights are bright.
The monster was suppressed, its movements were slow, and its spiritual energy was weakened.
With this strength and weakness, the gap is huge.
Coupled with adequate preparations, complete equipment, logistics supplies, and battlefield medical care, there are also many, and the temporary stronghold formed by the remaining fire stands next to the swamp, providing strong backing for the soldiers.
The originally expected three days of fighting ended in one day.
The whole process was so overwhelming that Rhodes had no time to kill all the monsters. A considerable number of monsters were killed by the warriors.
Although Rhodes needs souls very much, efficiency is most important at this time.
Moreover, the monster levels in Blackwater Swamp are not high, and they don’t have many souls.
The contamination suffered by the soldiers was quickly purified by [Tears of the Goddess]. There were only a few injured in the entire battle, and most of them quickly returned to the battlefield under the treatment of the medical team led by Aunt User.
This is one of the reasons why the battle is so fast.
Rhodes also took the opportunity to familiarize himself with his powerful psychic powers and practice the newly lit [Star Shuttle].
The ability of this star is indeed very powerful.
Rhodes can condense stardust from his ten fingertips. He can control these shining stardust and connect them into a bright thread, which can then be woven into a weapon or shield.
The more and denser the lines, the sharper the weapon and the stronger the shield.
During the battle, Rhodes used the Stardust Sword in one hand and the Starlight Shield in the other to kill monsters. With his skillful fighting skills and smooth movements, he used the sword and shield shining with the light of stars to chop melons and vegetables. The appearance of killing monsters like this has fascinated many people.
However, the most important usage of [Star Shuttle] is "Star Shuttle".
Wrap star threads around your fingertips to form a high-speed spinning top. When the speed exceeds a certain limit, the star threads at the tail will dissipate, providing a forward thrust, and the top will fly out rapidly. .
This is the "Star Shuttle".
It is extremely powerful, but requires very high psychic control.
The process of winding the star thread is like hitting a top with a whip. The harder the hit, the faster the speed. Otherwise, if the rotation speed does not reach the standard for a long time, the star shuttle will dissipate.
At the end of the whole battle, Rhodes only had to take out one shot and hit a black death beast through.
The power is indeed huge, but it consumes too much energy and requires a lot of psychic energy. Rhodes still likes to use the Star Sword and Star Shield.
It’s fast, effortless, and powerful.
The battle is over, but the work is not.
The logistics personnel who had been waiting for a long time quickly began to purify every inch of the land, and established a fire-protecting sacrificial site in the center of the swamp, taking root in the protective fire and connecting the fire with Fanxing Town to form a whole.
The Life Priests escorted a small holy white tree to be planted in the middle of the swamp, and the breath of life began to improve the land.
Like Ghost Lake, Blackwater Swamp is also an excellent place to grow food.
The soldiers did not go back, but guarded the edge of the Blackwater Swamp, waiting for the defense facilities to be established.
Fanxing Town's defense system is composed of defense facilities in the surrounding areas.
As long as they are established, it means that Fanxing Town has officially become a complete human settlement.
The expedition plan can be officially declared a success.
From this step, only the ruins of Yin Soen are left to the west.
This ruins is not simple, it is the most dangerous area around Fanxing Town, but Rhodes has already been prepared.
