Real Mount and Blade Game

"And now I have enough dinars to upgrade these city walls." Shen Mu touched his chin, opened the building list, and found the subsequent upgraded versions of the city walls and gates.

That is, a large city wall 12 meters high and 5 meters wide, and a large city gate 15 meters high and 7 meters wide.

It just fits the current situation.

So Shen Mu directly opened the system's building introduction interface, and a new dialog box appeared in front of his eyes again.

[Large wall: An upgraded version of the stone wall, with a 12-meter-high and 5-meter-wide large stone wall, the interior is filled with 4-meter-wide rammed earth, and the exterior is built with half-meter-thick stone strips on both sides. (Construction cost 1000 dinars per meter.) (Additional construction: War shed, external war box)]

[Large City Gate: An upgraded version of the stone city gate, with a 15-meter-high and 7-meter-wide large stone city gate, built with rammed earth and stone slabs. (Construction cost 10000 dinars) (Additional constructions: Arrow Tower, External Battle Box)]

"It's not bad, and the cost is not too high."

Shen Mu looked at the detailed introduction of the two buildings, subconsciously touched his chin, and thought: "The construction cost of the large city wall is 500 dinars per meter, so if the castle area and the town area are all upgraded, it will probably cost about 1 dinars."

Then Shen Mu took a look at his current dinar reserves.

[You currently have 457234 dinars. ]

A total of more than 45 dinars.

The number is quite astonishing.

"Fortunately, after completing the eight rounds of stage tasks, I was given a lot of dinars in each round, which saved me a balance of more than 45 dinars."

Shen Mu had a relaxed expression on his face.

Since the current dinar balance is sufficient, I might as well take advantage of the money to upgrade the city walls and gates to make Dehrim stronger and more defensive.

When facing stronger enemies that you may encounter next, you will also have better defense effects.

There is no way. Now Shen Mu thinks about the enemies that his Dehrim may face, and he feels very serious in his heart.

Whether it is the demons from the abyss or the devils from hell, they are all serious threats that we will have to face in the future, and they may even be enemy forces that may be sent from other cities.

Of course, there are also the undead monsters that we are facing all the time, which are the most direct threat.

Although I have completely repelled those undead monsters, I must not relax.

After all, the current Blue Star world has been occupied by those undead monsters under the rules of the dead, and according to his understanding of the vampire mistress Isabel whom he met, there are still some with higher intelligence among those undead monsters.

And since they possess advanced intelligence, they must also possess complete thinking abilities.

By then, I will definitely be no different from ordinary people.

It can even be said that if they survive long enough, these advanced undead spirits, which have the same intelligence as normal humans or even higher intelligence than normal humans, will be quite difficult to deal with.

You have to be more careful.

Anyway, Shen Mu believed that since he was good at offense, he had to be good at defense as well.

"Then let's build it." Shen Mu didn't hesitate when he thought of this. He immediately communicated with the system and confirmed the construction.

[Ding! You have chosen to upgrade and build 'Large Stone City Wall' and 'Large Stone City Gate'. The upgrade cost of these two buildings is '176000 dinars'. 】

【agree or not? 】

[Tip: This city upgrade project will attract enthusiastic pursuit from construction contractors on the Calradia continent. Based on the respect some construction contractors have for you, some of them are willing to upgrade your 'towers, arrow towers, and sentry towers' when upgrading the city walls and gates. Upgrade to large stone towers, arrow towers, and sentry towers.]

"Hmm? I didn't expect that this upgrade would bring an unexpected surprise."

Shen Mu looked at the new dialog box that appeared in front of him, especially the prompt dialog box, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Do you have any other ideas now? Of course I choose to agree!"

This city upgrade project can not only upgrade the city walls and gates, but the construction contractors can also help upgrade the tower arrows and watchtowers on the city walls, which is simply an additional bonus project.

How could Shen Mu not agree?
After all, upgrading a tower costs 5000 dinars.

To upgrade an arrow tower, that's 4000 dinars.

Even upgrading a sentry tower would cost 3000 dinars.

Now in the town area and castle area of ​​Dehrim, there are 8 towers and 6 sentry towers. There are more than 20 arrow towers that can station soldiers and attack the outside world.

If you add it all up, the cost would be around 10 dinars.

Although Shen Mu has a lot of spare money now, he can also exchange it for dinars by consuming his faith.

But having money is not the way to spend it recklessly.

We still have to be frugal.

'Om—'

While Shen Mu was thinking, a stream of white data had already flowed out from between his eyebrows and reached outside the city wall of Dehrim, which was the area on the west side.

When the white light landed on the ground, a group of strong construction workers wearing coarse linen gowns immediately appeared.

And in front of them, there appeared a fat man who looked like a wealthy businessman, wearing velvet clothes and a lot of silver and gold jewelry.

He is of course the building contractor this time.

"Is this Lord Shen Mu's Dehrim? I never thought that he would come to such a simple town to resist the evil attack that could destroy the world and protect our safety."

The construction contractor looked extremely surprised. After all, he lived in the real Dehrim. He certainly knew how tall the walls and towers of the real Dehrim were, and even how magnificent the protection of multiple walls was.

Now we see that the savior in the mythical rumors, Lord Shen Mu's Dehrim, looks so simple.

He was in a low mood.

In his impression, Shen Mu, the savior, should not live in such a simple town. He should live in a city that is more magnificent than the former capital of Dehrim, which is now the capital of the Nord Kingdom, Sagos.

Look at the thin city walls, the sparse towers, arrow towers and sentry towers. They are not suitable for Lord Shen Mu at all.

And the defense is really too poor.

According to the Mount and Blade soldiers who had returned to the continent of Calradia for training and upgrading, it was Lord Shen Mu's simple defense that allowed him to hold off the waves of attacks from the evil monsters, which made the construction contractor's eyes tear up.

This fearless spirit is something that anyone who comes out of the world of Mount and Blade will never forget or turn a blind eye to.

"I must help Lord Shen Mu to build this Dehrim into a city comparable to the real Dehrim."

The construction contractor slowly clenched his fists, slowly exhaled, then turned his head and looked at the hundreds of strongest construction workers following behind him, waved forward, and said loudly: "Let's go, the respected Lord Shen Mu's Dehrim is ahead, and now it's time to show our strength. Don't delay Lord Shen Mu's town construction for a little selfishness and self-interest."

The construction workers behind him responded loudly, with excitement and longing on their faces and in their eyes.

These construction workers are of course even more fanatical in their belief in Shen Mu.

After all, everyone knows that Shen Mu is the savior of the Mount and Blade world.

Not only does he have a legendary reputation, but they all know that Shen Mu is now the greatest contributor to saving the world of Mount and Blade.

They all knew that if it weren't for Shen Mu, they, the construction workers, would have died at the hands of those monsters long ago.

And according to those Mounted and Bladed soldiers who once worked for Shen Mu and fought for him, they returned to Calradia to travel and upgrade, waiting for the time to return to Lord Shen Mu's command again.

Those corpses and skeletons crawling out of the graves are even the legendary devils and demons.

These construction workers would feel a terrifying presence that made them tremble in their hearts as soon as they heard it.

Therefore, they became even more fanatical in their faith in Shen Mu, who was protecting them on the front line.

Now that they can finally meet Lord Shen Mu, they are of course very happy.

Soon, the more than 500 construction workers and the construction contractor arrived at the outskirts of Dehrim where Shen Mu was.

And just when they arrived at the edge of Dhrim, they were actually discovered by the sentinels on the watchtower in the Dhrim Castle area.

However, before the sentry's order could be passed on, the Kugit people who were wandering in the wild at any time and conducting random patrols had already discovered them at the same time.

So just as these construction workers, led by the construction contractor, began to walk towards Dehrim, a light cavalry reconnaissance team consisting of five Kugit bandits had already quickly rode up to them.

"Hey, you guys! Why did you come to Dehrim? Report your purpose!"

The five Kugit bandits came quickly in front of them, and with their excellent riding skills, they simply tightened the reins, making the grassland horses under their crotch stand up, and stopped in front of the construction workers, showing off their superb skills.

And when the war horses made a hissing sound, they had already moved the nomadic scimitars on their waists forward.

Let the nomadic scimitar, which represents killing, appear in front of these construction workers and building contractors.

Meant to deter.

"We are a construction team from Dehrim. Based on the bidding of the Construction Guild, we have won the right to operate the wall and gate upgrade and renovation project of New Dehrim from Lord Shen Mu."

The construction contractor quickly took two steps forward and took out the bidding contract he had previously signed with the construction guild.

His attitude seemed extremely humble: "We are all here for the safety of Lord Shen Mu. We are all good people, there are absolutely no bad people."

Because the construction contractor had recognized the five guys riding the prairie horses as the Kugits, and moreover, they were criminals among the Kugits, a group of prairie bandits.

After all, you can understand it if you think about it.

On the plateau where Dehrim is located, right in the center of the entire Calradia continent.

Therefore, going eastwards is the great grasslands of the Kugit people.

So when Dehrim was outside the city or in the tavern, he could meet many Kugits who came here to make a living.

Whether it is a normal Kugit merchant, a Kugit nomad, a Kugit soldier, or even a Kugit bandit, you can meet them.

For better or worse.

But the only thing that is certain is that these Kugit bandits, as criminals, basically do not do good things.

Robbery, extortion, kidnapping, even killing and burning of villages are common occurrences.

So this construction contractor, as a wealthy man, a famous construction contractor in Dehrim, and a powerful construction contractor with his own construction team of thousands of people, now encountered these lawless criminals and these Kugit bandits, he still expressed his courtesy and respect.

Don't dare take any offense.

He was very clear that if he dared to verbally offend these construction contractors, the end result would definitely be that his ordinary workers with little fighting power would suffer great losses!

"Oh, a construction team to upgrade the city walls and gates?" The Kugit bandits looked at the construction contractor, then looked up at the sturdy construction workers, and finally nodded and said, "I've heard about this news before. It seems that you have come at the right time. In this case, let's go to Dehrim. But there are so many of you, and I have to warn you to remember to abide by the rules of Dehrim and show respect to Lord Shen Mu. Otherwise, we will not be so easy to talk to. I think you also understand our character."

As they spoke, the Kugit bandits patted the nomadic scimitars at their waists, which was a stronger warning.

"Of course, of course, we will abide by all the rules of Dehrim and guarantee the highest respect for Lord Shen Mu." The construction contractor nodded repeatedly.

There was not the slightest objection.

Then, with the confirmation of these Kugit bandits, he waved his hand and asked the construction workers behind him to walk quickly towards the city gate of Dehrim again.

Although because of Shen Mu, he knew that the grassland bandits in this alien world would not be like those in the Calradia continent, who would extort, rob or even kidnap them for dinars or their belongings.

But even so, due to the notorious reputation of the grassland bandits.

The construction contractor was also a little scared.

I can't wait to see Shen Mu. (End of this chapter)
