"Tony, count the losses in the territory." Standing on the ground, after taking a deep breath of fresh air, Chu Xin ordered Tony, who was struggling to crawl out behind him.
Although the territory was devastated, he did not feel depressed at all. He felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his body and he felt relaxed.
"Okay, Lord!" Tony said loudly, stroking a pair of glasses that he had been given at some point.
Behind the two of them, a group of slaves filed out. What appeared in front of them was the setting sun after the wind and rain, and the territory that was beyond recognition.
Just looking at the picture of the disaster scene in the territory, one can guess the horror of the hurricane. If it were not for the Lord's timely response and protection, it would be difficult for them to survive such a natural disaster.
At this moment, everyone felt a sense of joy in surviving the disaster, and at the same time, there was recognition of this territory and the lord.
His eyes quickly scanned the series of loyalty increase prompts that appeared in the upper left corner. Chu Xin shouted loudly: "The hurricane has left. Let's clean up the territory briefly and use tools to repair the areas that can be repaired. Tucker, on the hour Hard food, let’s celebrate tonight!”
"Long live the lord!"
"Long live the lord!"
…
Amidst the cheers of the crowd, Chu Xin waved his hand to signal everyone to disperse, while he himself walked around his black castle. Fortunately, he did not suffer any damage.
After losing Bingmeng's magical support, the ice is gradually melting, but it will definitely not be possible to live in it in a short time. Chu Xin is not in a hurry. He sat in front of the blue brick house and opened the game map to check the view of the golden villain.
Underground has been tense for so long, and now it's his turn to relax.
As for the way to relax, of course, he would go to the town of Fairen to watch the excitement. He didn't quite believe that this town could survive the hurricane. At most, he would see if Fairen itself had any means to keep the situation under control. Mage Tower.
But it should be difficult. After all, he relied on the effects of talent and wind and drizzle, as well as Bing Meng, Iron Scale and many other methods, but he still suffered heavy losses under the hurricane.
They don't have the natural protection of Hefeng Xiaoyu. Facing such a terrifying natural disaster, the most likely outcome is that the town of Fairen will be razed to the ground. If the Mage Tower is made of strong materials, it may be able to barely save the tower below.
Along the way, the golden villain traveled smoothly without encountering any red dots. The map was completely cleaned up by this natural disaster hurricane.
Chu Xin discovered that of the many explorable places originally marked on the game map, only a few were left, and most of them had been completely destroyed by the hurricane.
This is not bad. At least in a short period of time, the crisis he encountered when leaving his territory for the Emerald Empire was minimized. And as long as the conditions are sufficient, his territory can usher in a period of rapid development, and no force will hinder his development.
Sure enough, as the golden man approached, Chu Xin discovered that the small town of Fairen had been completely wiped off the map.
There are only faint ruins of broken walls left on the ground, indicating that there once was a small town here. Even the mage tower was broken off, with only a small and sturdy half of the tower remaining, and most of the other half missing. .
The remaining half of the tower was covered in scars and looked extremely miserable. Chu Xin was very satisfied with this.
This feeling is like taking a test. If your score is lower, wouldn't you be happy to see that your deskmate next door got a lower score than you?
The mage tower on the game map turned into a ruin at this time.
[Mage Tower Ruins]: There used to be scenery here, but the hurricane destroyed everything, leaving only its secrets hidden underground. If you're lucky, you won't come away empty-handed.
remains?
It turned out to be a ruins!
Chu Xin tried to control the golden man to enter and explore, but unfortunately, the golden man stepped on it and walked around, but he could not get in.
It seems that this ruins can only be excavated in reality.
There are many ruins in the Dark Land, which is one of the reasons why there is an endless stream of adventurers and pioneer lords who go here to explore.
Relics are generally divided into three types: the first are relics left by predecessors, which may be passed down, and you may also obtain some rare magic equipment or props; the second are civilization relics, which are left behind after the demise of certain civilizations. If you are lucky, you may get some magical technology from them; the third type is the ruins generated with the dark tide. There are many types of ruins such as challenge type, exploration type, etc. The specific reason is unknown, but the rewards are often generous. .
There have been rumors that some people obtained the inheritance of the Holy Magic in the dark land and became a powerful person in one fell swoop. There were also lords who dug up the treasure trove of a certain civilization, and the strength of the territory increased by leaps and bounds overnight.
But many ruins have been explored, and the good things have been looted and completely abandoned, without any value. Only those ruins that are highly dangerous or appear with the tide of darkness have good things inside for those who are destined.
Of course, benefits and risks coexist. There are huge dangers hidden in many ruins, and you may lose your life if you are not careful.
The ruins of the mage tower in front of us are obviously made from the mage tower where Ferron once stayed, and they belong to the first category.
Chu Xin didn't think that the territory of a four-star little mage could gain much, but with the mentality that no matter how small a mosquito was, it was still flesh, he decided to go and have a look.
In addition to this ruins, there are also a dozen white dots left in the town of Fairen, which should be surviving adventurers, mixed with an unusually eye-catching green dot.
Oh, brother Ding is here too!
Chu Xin checked Ding Xiu's condition. Overall, he was in good condition. He was still in a tipsy state. He was really bold and not panicked at all.
None of these people moved now, either because they were frightened or because they were unconscious. Anyway, they stayed where they were and did not move.
There was no Master Feilun in the crowd, but Chu Xin vaguely felt that the Master Master probably did not fall into this place. Since the other party can open up a material transmission channel, it is very possible to teleport away and return to his original world.
"Then let me see what secrets are hidden underground!" Chu Xin raised his lips slightly and began to organize the troops in the territory to prepare to go to the small town of Fairen. Considering that some professionals were still alive there, he decided to bring most of the fighting power of the territory with him.
First, all the troops in the black stone mines and collection points were released and replaced by the skeleton miners team and the gray goblin collection team. Then there was the team in the Gray Fang Tribe dungeon. Because there was no golden villain to control them, they cleared the entire dungeon according to the normal process and luckily escaped the end of the hurricane.
It's a pity that a centaur archer was lost. After checking the records, he was shot to death by a gray goblin crossbowman after stepping on an iron mine.
Then there are the ghost wolves in the ghost wolf lair, as well as the surviving gray goblin crossbowmen, gray goblin mechanics, etc.
Soon, Chu Xin gathered a team of about sixty or seventy people and headed towards the small town of Fairen.
At the same time, underground in the small town of Fairen, adventurers were sitting all over the place, having a lively party!
The place they were in was a wine cellar underground.
Although the entire town of Fairen was destroyed, the people hiding in the cellar managed to survive.
I don’t know who started it, but in the middle of the party, everyone got excited for no apparent reason, and started drinking the wine in the cellar one after another.
Most of the people hiding here are wild adventurers from the town of Fairen. For them, the town of Fairen has nothing to do with them. As long as their lives are still alive, they have nothing to worry about.
Most of the people were relieving their stress and drinking to their heart's content. This was the first time they felt so good, so no one mentioned going out for a while.
I finally had the opportunity to buy Grandet's wine for free, so of course I had to work hard. As for what happens after I get out, let's talk about it after I get out. The wind is so strong, maybe the town is gone?
The entire wine cellar was extremely noisy. Although there were only seventeen or eight people, it was comparable to a vegetable market. The people urging people to drink, making wine, and pouring wine were so noisy that it was impossible to hear the wind outside.
But at this time, no one paid attention to the rumors outside. Today there is wine and today you are drunk, and tomorrow you will be worried.
No, there were still people who were awake. A tall man holding a giant sword in the corner spoke up, "What's the situation outside now? Why don't we go out and take a look!"
His name is Brody, an old adventurer who has been in the Dark Land for nearly three years. He is cautious and in order to stay awake, he did not participate in this carnival.
"drink!"
"Brother, I'm not telling you, a slender knife like yours is not good at cutting people. Look at my machete, with one click, the head falls to the ground!"
"Gene Era"
"Are you a brother? If you are a brother, give me a drink!"
…
The atmosphere in the wine cellar was at a climax, and no one paid attention to Brody's words. There were even a few drunken men with weapons warning him to be honest, and they would chop him down if he dared to go out.
"Alas!" Brody sighed and continued to squat in the corner, no longer talking, quietly waiting for these people to get drunk.
Time passed little by little, and almost an hour later, looking at the adventurer lying on the ground, Brody sneered and taunted, then stood up.
After such a long time, the hurricane must have passed. He decided to go up to see the situation in the small town of Fairen.
If the town still exists, he will report to the old housekeeper and severely punish the following group of drunken lunatics. If the town of Fairen was completely bulldozed, he would have to make plans early to find a new gathering place.
"Clang!" With a dull sound, Brody overturned the heavy iron plate of the wine cellar and climbed out of the wine cellar.
The long-lost brightness made his heart suddenly brighten up, and the gloom that had been suppressed for most of the day was swept away. Before he could see his surroundings clearly, he heard a sudden sharp shout.
"Drop your weapons and raise your hands!"
Brody's body stiffened instantly. He looked at the enemies surrounding him with various weapons. He was stunned. What's going on?
Out of desire for survival, he with two stars of strength instantly removed the giant sword from his back and raised his hands.
"Keep an eye on him and kill him if he makes any move!" Rosa directed the combat dwarves to come forward, take away all the items on his body, and drive him aside to guard him.
Chu Xin has not yet figured out how to deal with these remnants of the small town of Fairen. In his heart, he still hoped to convert these people into the population of his territory, so Chu Xin asked Rosa, who was guarding outside the wine cellar, to capture them alive as much as possible, but as long as they dared to resist, they must be killed as soon as possible.
As for Chu Xin, he organized people on the other side to explore the ruins of the Mage Tower. He had already explored the wine cellar and found that there were about three three-star professionals, one of whom was Ding Xiu, and the rest were all two-stars. Considering the strength of these people, he did not rush into them. Instead, he planned to wait until the ruins of the mage tower here were explored before dealing with the adventurers in the town of Fairen over there.
Guarding outside the wine cellar is Rosa, all the centaur archers, gray goblin crossbowmen and five combat dwarves. Chu Xin is not too far away from there, and can provide immediate support if there is an emergency.
Chu Xin was also aware of the situation in the wine cellar, but after finding that there was no movement on the other side, he turned his attention back to the ruins of the mage tower in front of him.
The mage tower was in ruins, and it was very difficult to find a few meager supplies among the rocks. Therefore, from the beginning, Chu Xin's goal was its underground secrets, and the prompts on the map clearly informed him of this.
Under his command, Tie Lin quickly opened a path downwards. After walking about five meters underground, Tie Lin suddenly hit a dark metal wall.
[Black Star Magic Iron Wall]: A wall built with the five-star special metal Black Star Magic Iron, which has properties such as hardness and shielding.
Chu Xin quickly discovered the specific properties of the wall. This seemingly inconspicuous metal wall was actually made of five-star level metal minerals. So, does it also indicate from the side that the space under the Mage Tower is... Not simple.
"Can this thing be eaten?" Chu Xin patted Tie Lin. As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he realized that his question was a bit redundant, because Tie Lin's excited expression had already said everything.
"Go ahead, you will make a fortune this time!" Chu Xin signaled that Tie Lin could eat it. If it could eat the entire wall, Chu Xin believed that Tie Lin's strength would make a qualitative leap.
However, because Iron Scale is currently a larvae, it is not very fast to eat, and the metal wall is smooth, making it difficult for it to eat.
"Dong dong!" Chu Xin knocked on the black star magic iron wall. It felt almost solid. The thickness of this wall was at least half a meter.
It seems that it will be difficult to break through this wall in a short period of time. After the iron scales have swallowed various minerals, they may enter a dormant evolutionary state to gradually digest the swallowed metals or ores.
Chu Xin estimated that if he wanted to gnaw through this wall, Iron Scales would have to enter the digestion state at least twice. But this is also a good thing. If Tie Lin's strength becomes stronger, it will also be of great help to his ability to survive in the future.
The wall couldn't be dug through, but Chu Xin had another way. He summoned the ghost wolf and said, "Go in and explore the situation."
The ghost wolf can enter the ghost state and can easily pass through this physical obstacle. He needs to check the specific conditions inside to decide whether to waste more time on it.
After all, it might have been hollowed out already.
