"I'm just a sentry on the battlefield, and I don't know much." Harold moved his body, feeling a little numb in his butt.
"It's okay, just pick up what you know." Chu Xin said. He didn't expect to hear the specific situation from Harold, but after all, he had been on the battlefield for so many days, and he should have heard some basic information.
"That's okay, but these are just hearsay, they can't be true!" Harold paused, sorted out his thoughts, and then said: "As far as I know, there are currently two abyss on the battlefield. The demon's main army, the Abyss Snake Demon Legion and the Abyss Fire Demon Legion, are very powerful. I heard that the Red Feather Legion suffered a small loss at their hands. But we are not easy to mess with, and we swallowed up one of their vanguard legions."
"I haven't heard any big news in the past two days. Alas, I don't know how long this war will last."
Chu Xin nodded. This was similar to what he had learned so far. After the initial trial, both sides suffered losses from each other. After realizing that the opponent was not an easy opponent to solve, the battlefield became stalemated.
But this stalemate will not last long. If either the Emerald Empire or the Abyss Demon finds a new breakthrough, it will inevitably break the balance in an instant.
"Have any abyss demons come to the watchtower recently?" Chu Xin thought for a while and asked.
Harlow did not know much information, and his mind was in a mess. He would definitely not be able to tell anything if asked. Chu Xin only had to pick out the parts he wanted to know and ask.
"In addition to this spider, a small group of red-skinned demons that looked like children came over some time ago, but we beat them away." Harlow recalled for a while and said.
"Is there just a small group of demon children?" Chu Xin was a little surprised.
Harold was stunned for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses and affirmed: "Yes, it's just a small team of devil children. Maybe Watchtower No. 44 is more remote!"
With the game map, Chu Xin knew that Harlow was right, the location of Watchtower No. 44 was indeed very remote. Although it is the outermost among the many watchtowers, it is located on the far left side away from the main force of the Abyss Demons. In comparison, the watchtowers in the middle probably receive more visits.
"It's indeed a bit biased, but judging from the situation of that spider, I'm afraid it's still being targeted." Chu Xin thought of the Abyss Dream Weaver that was burned by him, and had a headache. He hoped that these abyss demons could grow longer. Wink, don't mess with yourself if you have nothing to do.
"Yes, none of us can escape when the demon army comes!" Harold looked a little worried. Chu Xin's legs seemed a little thicker, but under the abyss demon army, he was just an ant that could be destroyed with one step.
Chu Xin noticed his inner struggle and asked, "Then why don't you run away? It's better to hide anywhere in the deep mountains and wild forests outside Beiguan Fortress than to be cannon fodder."
"It's not that simple. Those who escape will be treated as defectors. None of the brothers in this watchtower are single-family members and cannot afford the consequences. Besides, if you die here, you will still have a generous pension. , it’s better than dying in the mouth of a strange beast.” Harold sighed, glanced at Chu Xin, and continued: “Having said that, I still want to tell you that the most important task here in the watchtower is investigation. No matter what happens, any situation must be reported as soon as possible, even if the watchtower is surrounded by an army of abyssal demons. Otherwise, once the report is not reported in time or is not reported, it will be considered dead. If there are still people alive, it must be They will be held accountable.”
"Can't run?" Chu Xin was a little surprised, what kind of rules are these.
"You can run, but the condition must be reported." Harlow said, but he was thinking, run? If the abyss demon really touches it, there's no chance it will let you run away.
Thinking of this, Harold added another sentence, "By the way, reports are required in the watchtower every morning, noon and evening, and there are also spot checks from time to time. I have assigned someone to be responsible for this, so you don't have to worry about it."
Chu Xin rubbed his head. There were so many rules in this small watchtower. He now hoped that the abyss demon army would come over quickly and bulldoze this watchtower.
Anyway, as long as the situation is reported to the police on time, without the watchtower, he can play as he pleases. Using the underground shelter as his base, he can earn points steadily without having to worry about so much.
"I-huh?" Chu Xin stopped talking, frowned and looked to the southeast. The ghost wolves on guard outside sent news that someone was approaching.
The game map cannot be opened 24 hours a day. The ghost wolves were dispersed by Chu Xin to the periphery for security, which can be regarded as an extra layer of security and protection.
According to the news fed back by the ghost wolf, those who came were not the abyss demons, but a team of humans. However, if you think about it, this direction is equivalent to the rear. If you really want to find out the abyss demons, it would be better.
"Someone is coming!" Chu Xin patted Harold, stood up and returned to the wooden house. At the same time, he secretly told everyone in the team to get ready. The situation of the visitor was unknown, so he had to act with caution.
Harold's expression changed. What's going on? Ever since this lord came, his watchtower No. 44 has been in constant trouble.
Chu Xin opened the game map and was about to check it out when he suddenly felt a gust of wind and waves coming and several people stopped in front of them.
"Guys, please don't be nervous. We are a team from the military camp. We hope to stay with you for a while. This is our identity certificate." The leader is a young man wearing a dark blue magic robe, with a strength of up to Five stars, but he speaks very politely, without the tyranny that strong men are accustomed to.
"This is a hunting team formed by recruited professionals. They specialize in hunting demons on the battlefield in exchange for merit. Let's borrow our place. Look -" Harold whispered to Chu Xin, since he agreed Chu Xin is responsible for everything in Ganglou, so even if he wants to agree at this moment, he still needs to ask Chu Xin for his opinion.
Chu Xin nodded calmly. For a guy of this strength, staying in the watchtower is also a kind of protection for them. Moreover, at present, his fists are relatively hard.
"Okay, you can use the open space here."
"Thank you!" After receiving a positive reply, the wind mage organized his teammates to build a simple tent.
All abyss demons killed on the battlefield can earn merit points, and the corpses of some special demons can be turned over to the research institute in exchange for merit points. Therefore, some stronger professionals will form teams to hunt the abyss demons on the battlefield.
Different from the boring garrison here at the watchtower, the military camp has a variety of tasks such as hunting, logistics, reconnaissance, and defense. From time to time, some highly meritorious bounty tasks are released. It can be said that it is much more colorful than the watchtower here.
However, as a price, everyone has mandatory mission indicators, and at the critical moment of the war, they must rise to the occasion. This is non-negotiable.
The Jade Empire is not suppressed by sticks, but there are also tempting carrots. It is said that this time the merit exchange list has taken out many restricted items that have never been released before, and those who have made significant contributions will also have the opportunity to enter the treasury. Pick a treasure.
Under the temptation of these things, many people are still willing to take risks.
In comparison, Chu Xin could only rely on pure hunting to gain merit in addition to garrisoning.
However, his interest in war points is far greater than the achievements of the Emerald Empire, and now his mind is filled with things in the battlefield exchange list.
Soon, the wind mage and others set up five tents on the outside. The remaining people began to prepare to light a fire, while the wind mage came over to strike up a conversation, seeming to want to obtain information near the watchtower.
Chu Xin asked Harold to go up and communicate with him. As for himself, he opened the game map and controlled the resurrected golden villain to go out.
At night, the battlefield was not very safe. Chu Xin controlled the golden man to explore to the west, to a more remote place on the left side of the watchtower.
It was said that the area outside Beiguan Fortress was rich in products. Chu Xin wanted to take a look and see if he could find a nearby stone mine to place the golden villain.
At this location, the golden villain has to return to the Beiguan Fortress to collect stone ore. It will take several hours to go back and forth. It is really not worth it. If you have the time, you might as well look for it here. .
However, although the abyss demons are rarely active here, the strange beasts are active, especially as the night comes.
It doesn't look like it's inside Beiguan Fortress. With the intensive human activities, the living areas of alien beasts have been continuously squeezed and become extremely rare.
Not far forward, Chu Xin encountered several small red dots, but surprisingly she was not attacked.
The golden villain's strength has grown significantly with the growth of his own strength. He is no longer the boy who even a slime dares to come up and pinch.
These one to two star ordinary beasts, after sensing the aura of the golden villain, not only did they not dare to attack, but they fled in the opposite direction.
But not all strange beasts are like this, there are also some ferocious ones. After exploring for about ten kilometers, Chu Xin encountered his first attack.
"Tip, you were attacked by an iron-backed wolf!"
"Tip, your strong body withstood its attack. After a physical fight, the iron-backed wolf limped away with its tail between its legs!"
Chu Xin looked at the red dot on the map that was hurriedly leaving. After thinking for a while, he still didn't pursue it, wasting time.
Speaking of which, this was the first time that his golden villain had defeated an enemy alone on the game map, even though it was only a two-star iron-backed wolf.
The rest of the journey is relatively stable, which is also related to the wave of aristocratic pioneering fever set off by the Jade Empire.
After all, powerful alien beasts are themselves an expensive resource. Under the crazy hunting of the nobles, many alien beasts near Beiguan Fortress were either hunted or fled deep into the more remote mountains.
The rest are some small alien beasts that the nobles look down upon. They are either weak or wary. This has also led to the fact that the four-star alien beasts in this area have become quite rare.
It has to be said that there is a reason why humans are called greedy humans by many races.
Chu Xin soon discovered this, but he did not let go of his inner caution. He still carefully controlled the golden man, using his expanded field of vision to avoid any red dots he saw along the way.
Soon, more than an hour passed. The golden man had explored a relatively distant location and encountered more and more attacks.
After finally avoiding a steel bear, Chu Xin backed down. If he continued to move forward, the golden villain might be responsible for this.
He remembered that there were a few ordinary one-star stone mines on the way here, and if it couldn't work, it wouldn't be a bad idea to make do with it.
"Tip, you have discovered a barbarian tribe, you can go explore it."
Just as he was debating whether to return, Chu Xin suddenly saw a place that could be explored on the map, and it turned out to be not a resource point, but a tribe.
There are no red spots in this barbarian tribe. From the looks of it, it must have been abandoned.
Since the barbarian invasion of the Jade Empire failed, they were killed miserably, and many small tribes perished, and this was probably one of them.
Judging from the map, this barbarian tribe is probably a small tribe with a population of more than a hundred, but not more than a thousand. There are many stone houses covered with vines and weeds, and a slightly larger square in the middle.
After confirming that there was no danger, Chu Xin controlled the golden man to enter the barbarian tribe and start exploring.
It took half an hour for the golden man to get into one stone house after another, and was even crushed by the collapsed stone houses several times. If it weren't for strong strength and physical attributes, I might not be able to climb out.
However, after putting in so much effort, Chu Xin got nothing. If a few broken stone bowls and bones could be considered a gain, then pretend he didn't say anything.
If he hadn't been holding his breath, thinking that he had finally found a place to explore, and couldn't just let it go, Chu Xin would have controlled the golden villain and run away.
"Tip, after exploration, you found that this tribe has been completely abandoned. Please choose to occupy, destroy or give up!"
"Occupy: The barbarian tribe will become a branch territory, and you can obtain the current tribe's abandoned stone house, central square, animal spirit altar (Wild Power-Bear) and other buildings; destroy: you can obtain 800 units of stone, and there is a chance to obtain the stone house, central square, animal spirit altar, etc. Architectural drawings such as the Spirit Altar (Power of the Wild - Bear); Give up: Completely give up any operation on the barbarian tribe, it will continue to be abandoned."
Can this kind of abandoned tribe in the wild also trigger the option of occupying and destroying it?
Chu Xin was overjoyed by the unexpected joy that suddenly appeared. He originally thought that he would not be able to make any profit in this barbarian tribe.
Fortunately, he insisted on exploring the entire tribe, otherwise he might have missed this opportunity if he left early.
Occupation will definitely not be considered, unless the branch territory can simultaneously use the territory function of the Black Castle, it will be valuable. Moreover, this place is also in the wilderness, there is no need to occupy it.
"Choose to destroy!"
With a thought, Chu Xin made a choice instantly, and this barbarian tribe that had gone through countless trials and hardships disappeared from the map.
