Little Lord's Dark Castle

Chapter 342 Snow Arrives
"Reminder, you have explored the battlefield and obtained the treasure chest of the Seven Stars War, potion of ogre power*5."

It took more than 40 minutes, and the golden villain successfully obtained rewards from the ogre battlefield ruins on the map, a treasure chest and five potions that permanently increase the strength attribute.

The treasure chest was placed in the warehouse, and Chu Xin took out a tube of ogre power potion. This kind of potion that permanently increases attributes is a good thing.

The ogre power potion was a scarlet potion with a pungent smell. It always felt like a product of the underworld, but Chu Xin still held his nose and drank it.

The taste is fishy and salty, but it is not particularly bad, and it can barely be swallowed.

Soon, the ogre power potion took effect.

"Reminder, you drank the potion of ogre strength, and the strength attribute increased by 5 points."

Successfully increased the attribute by 5 points in one go, which is equivalent to the increase in the attributes of a five-star profession, which is quite good.

Unfortunately, it only works the first time you drink it, keep drinking it, and it's just a normal, nasty drink.

There were 4 tubes of ogre power potions left. Xiaoqing, Iron Scale, and Grass Tuan each drank a bottle, which increased their strength by 7 points, 4 points, and 3 points respectively. It seemed that the plant-type grass balls had the worst absorption effect.

The remaining bottle of Chu Xin was reserved for Friday. Although Friday is an undead, it has the ability to absorb it. Maybe the potion can work on it.

Fat and water don't flow into outsiders' fields, and good things must naturally be reserved for their most loyal little brothers.

So far, the war with the ogre tribe has completely come to an end.

The data came from the Galaxy side, 23 four-star skeleton fighters and 2 wild lion fighters were lost on the city wall. This is the total number.

As for the injured dark moon werewolves and other units, they have already recovered from their injuries under the treatment of the territorial medical team.

It is really inconceivable that such a large and powerful tribe was paid for with so few casualties.

Thinking about it carefully, it was all the result of Chu Xinwen coming out, since the other party was lured into the territory, this result was already doomed.

Since the ogre entered the territory, it has suffered from the weakening of the boundary markers and the constant erosion of the cloud and dream realm. On Chu Xin's side, it occupies the advantage of the city wall and has the strategic level of crushing the ogre on the battlefield. are difficult.

At the beginning, the auxiliary units and mage units were destroyed, then the leader was trapped, the core was killed, and then the dragon and the stimulation of air-dropping Molotov cocktails, the ogre was led by the nose all the way until it collapsed .

Therefore, the casualties on the territory side were pitifully small. After all, the melee battle only lasted for such a short moment, and most of the time the two sides fought was a chasing battle of thousands of miles.

In this kind of battle, the frightened ogre no longer has any ability to resist.

Except for the casualties on the soldiers, the city walls and gates were not damaged, but there were still some potholes of different sizes on the walls, which could be repaired.

Because the entire ogre tribe was wiped out, there were no prisoners in the spoils this time, and the armor and weapons equipped on the ogre warriors were the most harvested on the battlefield.

These various types of armor and weapons are all made of iron. Due to the problem of the forging process, they are relatively rough. The iron ore is simply formed into the shape of armor or weapons without repeated processing and refining.

This also led to the exaggerated weight of these armors and weapons. A complete set of equipment added up to almost three hundred catties, which normal people could not use at all.

Now that these equipment have been collected, they have been sent to the warehouse next to the volcanic furnace, and can be put into use again after being rebuilt by the dwarves.

In any case, so much equipment is worth two to three hundred tons of iron ore. The iron ore resources in the territory are already tight, and these resources are still very precious.

At the ogre camp, aside from those bones, the most precious resource is the fur of various creatures. Although many of them are damaged due to storage and use problems, there are still many that can be used. Ron’s side Towed several cars to the warehouse.

These furs can be sewn into a lot of strong and warm clothes, so that more people have the ability to move outside in cold winter weather.

Ron picked out useful things from them, and burned the rest of them with a fire, and buried the ashes on the spot. No one could see that there was a trace of an ogre tribe staying here.

Through this battle with the ogre tribe, Chu Xin tried many things, and also understood the disadvantages of some tactics and weapons.

The first is the Molotov cocktail on the giant eagle. The power is really good, but the consumption is indeed high. It must be thrown in a sufficient scale to achieve the effect.

That fire consumed nearly more than 1000 Molotov cocktails from Chu Xin, which was already less than half a month's production of the territory.

The dwarf apprentices of the Black Rock Tribe spent just over two weeks working out the glass bottle with Chu Xin's prompt, and successfully taught it to Ron's handicraft team.

Now the territory has the ability to mass-produce glass, coupled with the fire oil prepared from plants, it will soon have the ability to mass-produce Molotov cocktails.

For this reason, Chu Xin specially mobilized a team to do this work, but according to the consumption progress, even if the resources accumulated for half a year were accumulated, they would not be able to withstand the squandering of several wars.

If this problem is to be improved, the formula of fire oil must be further improved to enhance its flame damage and adhesion.

Or, you can also consider direct replacement, develop an air-drop bomb, and transform the giant eagle into a bomber.

Chu Xin decided to make two preparations. After all, bombers and Molotov cocktails are suitable for different situations. Molotov cocktails are more suitable for attacking camps and cities where there are many buildings, while bombers are more suitable for attacking troops in open spaces.

The deployment of kerosene was handed over to Ron by Chu Xin, and now he has cultivated a group of junior technical personnel who are capable of refining, forging, weaving, etc. The first batch of kerosene was made by them. of.

The air-dropped bomb was handed over to Tony. It has a heavy task now. The magic pattern machine is still under research, and there is a new task here.

However, its manpower has also expanded a lot now, and it is equipped with 20 ordinary goblins who have newly joined the territory. Although their research ability is very weak, they can help Tony and reduce his work pressure.

For these ordinary goblins of the same race, Tony still has no big problem getting along, as long as they are not gray goblins, there will be no problem.

The second disadvantage is that in terms of defending the city, the compatibility of the arms and the lethality of the defensive towers are not very sufficient.

The ogre was able to successfully break through the city wall without any siege tools, which also confirmed from the side that there are still some problems with the defensiveness of the territorial city.

On the one hand, the defense towers in the territory are too lethal. Except for the limited high-star defense towers such as Thor's Wrath, the rest of the one-star and two-star defense towers are too weak, especially in the face of a strong body like an ogre. strong creature.

Dozens of attacks fell, and he continued to charge forward with the arrows and gun holes on his body as if nothing had happened.

On the other hand, there are no troops suitable for defense in the territory.

Whether it is the Dark Moon Werewolf, Wild Lion Warrior or Scarlet Winged Tiger, these are all good at assault combat, and having them defend on the city wall somewhat limits their performance.

As for the undead, their skeleton archers and armored zombies are all units that can be used to defend the city, but the problem is that fighting with the undead has a great impact on the morale of other units.

The troops under Chu Xin's command, and the group on the city wall this time, have experienced varying degrees of decline in combat effectiveness due to the influence of the undead.

In fact, there are troops such as the stone man and the giant rhino in the territory. Their defense is good enough, but the city wall is not suitable for their size.

The territory also needs a batch of high-star defense towers, which can be started from the copy of the crystal defense battle. In terms of arms, a class of ordinary long-range arms with about four to five stars is needed to maintain the long-range suppression on the city wall, and a class of four The melee units around the star can be equipped with spears or shields.

This is not too difficult. Just pay more attention to the weekly war copies and stronghold treasure chests. If you encounter these types of troops, just stay and don’t use them to strengthen the lairs of the troops.

……

The territory regained its calm, and the citizens staying in the house at the rear didn't even feel that this war had happened.

The territorial radio outside the house played the Galaxy's melodious broadcast, telling the story provided by Ron and Rosa to persuade the leaders to work hard and to promote the cruelty of the war outside.

Occasionally, Chu Xin would make up a few outrageous little stories, but the strange thing was that they were unanimously welcomed by the majority of the citizens, and the work efficiency of the leaders who inspired each time was the highest.

Perhaps, the magical world is naturally adapted to these magical and imaginative stories.

On the third day after the ogre tribe was wiped out, a heavy snowfall arrived as expected, and the real winter of the Dark Land came.

The fluttering snowflakes fell from mid-air, but Chu Xin's heart was not full of worries about the heavy snow and longing for the world wrapped in plain silver like in the past.

He was worried about whether those mutated plants would freeze to death, whether the built buildings would collapse, etc...

For a lord, such a cold winter is really not a good thing.

The hunting team had to stop working, the too cold air caused most of the strange beasts to stop their activities, hiding in their lairs and waiting for the end of winter.

Hubby and his team are urgently reinforcing the greenhouse to prevent it from collapsing due to the accumulation of heavy snow, or from the invasion of cold air.

The area of ​​the greenhouse has been expanded again, and now it covers an area of ​​more than 20 mu, which is divided into experimental units of different sizes according to different areas.

In some of these experimental units, different magic patterns were engraved by Ferren, which can simulate different temperatures and environments, and can cultivate varieties of crops in various aspects such as cold resistance and drought resistance.

And another part is configured with black soil, element spring water, etc., to maintain the fastest growth rate, so as to select and breed crops with fast growth and high yield.

I don’t know if it’s due to the two-way blessing of the talented people in the territory and the two-way blessing of the Agricultural College. Habi’s brain is much more flexible. He has mastered the Mendelian law of inheritance and the essence of the pea hybridization experiment taught by Chu Xin. Breeding of wheat varieties.

I believe that by the end of winter, the crop seeds in the territory will be greatly improved.

The animal pens and pastures that Chu Xin was most worried about were well protected by these buildings, and there seemed to be an invisible barrier above them, keeping the snowflakes from the outside world.

It gives people the impression that these building facades are another ecological environment, the most comfortable environment for these animals to grow.

The size of the cattle and sheep flock has expanded a lot during this period. Muscular cattle and long-haired sheep have been improved in the Lingqi Ranch. Recently, a large dairy cow has appeared.

Wu Li is also studying the matter of breed breeding recently. How to inherit some characteristics of these special breeds is also a great knowledge.

However, because he cannot enjoy the bonuses of the many talents and buildings in the territory, the pregnancy and birth cycle of animals is longer, and the time period for breeding is also longer.

The two Green Goblin Forests were also not affected by the heavy snow. This is good news. The territory still has a lot of resources.

The Green Devil Forest is indeed a rather special building. Chu Xin found many useful plants in it, such as wild peppers, wild sugar cane, etc. Unfortunately, it is a cold winter and cannot be transplanted and planted.

The resources in the forest are very rich, and the growth rules of plants are extremely fast, and a large number of new plants grow out every day.

As long as you have enough time to explore in it, you can find many plants that can be cultivated and grown.

During this period of time, the grass group completed the devouring and digestion of the ogre leader and the ogre wizard, and successfully evolved a new vine, which was blood red.

This rattan inherited an auxiliary ability of the ogre wizard, bloodthirsty thaumaturgy, which can be used on the grass group's own rattan or other people, and belongs to the housekeeping ability of the ogre.

However, this bloodthirsty thaumaturgy is not comparable to bloodthirsty rage in scope. It is a small-scale group spell that can greatly increase the target's attack ability and attack speed, and it has no side effects.

This ability is somewhat similar to the berserk ability without side effects, and it is still very easy to use.

Although the grass ball swallowed two seven-star creatures this time, the level has only risen by two levels, let alone breaking through to eight-star.

Its current promotion has gradually stagnated. Even though it has devoured several seven-star creatures, its strength has risen extremely slowly, and it has gradually fallen into a bottleneck period.

This is also a normal phenomenon. For the vast majority of life forms below seven stars, as long as they have a certain talent and enough time to practice, they will be able to break through sooner or later.

But to go up from the seven stars, what is needed is not only pure talent, but also a certain chance or inheritance. It is very difficult to walk through this road in a limited life with one's own strength and talent.

This is also the reason why there are so few eight-star and nine-star powerhouses in this world, limited by the bottleneck of cultivation and their own lifespan.

The human lifespan is less than a hundred years old, and races like dwarves and elves may live longer, but it is basically difficult to exceed a thousand years.

If you can't break through to nine stars in the first half of your life, your body and energy will decline more and more, and it is basically difficult to break through to nine stars.

Taking humans as an example, the previous 50 years old is his golden age. After this time period, it will be difficult to break through in the future, and his strength will even decline.

How to break through to nine stars and break the shackles of lifespan in this limited lifespan is the goal pursued by many people throughout their lives, but it is also a difficult problem that traps many people for their entire lives.

For Chu Xin, because of the existence of the black castle, he can say that there is no bottleneck. As long as he has the advanced character, the nine stars are just around the corner. This is his advantage, and it may also be his disadvantage.

Because if he is unlucky enough and doesn't have an advancement talisman corresponding to the star, he will never be able to break through.
