MC's career as foreign lord

"What is that?" Just as Anna was fretting and Zhou Ren was diligently sealing the mud, Shea's sudden exclamation made them both look up.

The direction she pointed to was the wasteland, a place where all sorts of things mingled, so the appearance of anything wouldn't be strange, but…

"What is this black thing?" Anna and Shea both had excellent eyesight, yet they couldn't identify the black thing!

It looked like a giant black cube, bouncing across the grassland!

"Slime? Or a magma cube?" Zhou Ren recognized it at once. Such a moving creature, and square at that, looked like the original creature, but neither slime nor magma cubes should be black, right?

"It should be a slime, right?" Zhou Ren guessed. This wasn't the Nether, so there shouldn't be any magma cubes. Did it eat dye and turn itself black?

"Let's go down and take a look!" Anna pulled Shea away from the scene. Zhou Ren looked at the giant monster's movement speed, estimating it would take a while to reach the border, so he didn't bother with it.

With the slime's movement speed, his eighty-year-old grandfather could run faster!

Thinking this, Zhou Ren decided to finish his work first. After all, no matter how you looked at it, tea had a much higher priority!

First, eighty pieces of dirt, leaving a space in the middle for the water flow, then a circle of cobblestone around the dirt, as an exterior and decoration, and finally, wooden fences on the cobblestone, as a barrier to prevent people or objects from falling.

Zhou Ren glanced again at the distance. The giant slime was still jumping there.

"Could it be a black corrosive slime?" Even as he walked down the stairs, Zhou Ren didn't stop thinking about the creature's origin.

But he glanced at his health bar and shook his head. If it were really the [This MC is Too Simple] mod, his health should only be three stars now.

He went to the back of the house, handed some fruit to Leah and the little bear, telling the two little ones not to go hungry, then returned to the house, grabbed a bucket, hoe, and tea tree seeds, and set off again.

At this time, he felt that his backpack was not enough. Just now, the bag was full of torches, wooden fences, stone steps, and dirt, as well as a series of tools. Now, if he wanted to plant, he had to go back and get other tools.

He remembered playing MC, he couldn't wait to install a dozen backpack mods, and then put all the tools into them like nesting dolls. Sometimes his friends joked that he was carrying a warehouse on his back.

Some people would even say that filling his backpack with enchanted golden apples would be heavier than the Earth!

But in the end, the backpack was not enough, Zhou Ren could only make a trip. If it weren't for his increased strength, this 60-meter-high staircase would have taken his life before.

But even so, Zhou Ren was still struggling to run. Climbing sixty meters in one breath! What a concept, twenty stories high!

Leah below also saw this scene, "Wow! So high! Bear, let's go climb later, okay? Whoever climbs to the top first gets to eat first!"

The little bear Dagg looked at his chubby palms with a bitter face: You're just making things difficult for me, chubby bear!

"No, no," Zhou Ren wiped a handful of sweat, "The stairs are only for large-scale transportation and emergencies. I want to make a tool for daily use to go up and down!"

Such frequent transportation might be feasible at the beginning, but once such a sky farm started running, it wouldn't work anymore.

This staircase was indeed large, but it couldn't be used to go up and down quickly, so Zhou Ren already had his own plans. Once things here were finished, the primary goal was to make a water elevator.

As for now, he could only make do. Zhou Ren quickly climbed to the top floor, first pouring the water directly through the hole in the middle of the field, then watching the water flow directly into the middle of the wheat field below.

This was actually one of the benefits of a vertical sky farm. One block of water could irrigate the entire farm and all the fields in the vertical space.

Zhou Ren took out the hoe, turned all the ground into farmland, and moistened it with water. Next was the planting of tea.

In fact, planting tea was very simple. You could just plant the seeds and leave them alone. When you needed tea, you could come and harvest a wave, and when you needed seeds, you could wait for it to bloom and bear fruit, and then come and harvest a wave.

Zhou Ren had a lot of tea seeds now. After planting them all, it would actually take a lot of time for them to bloom and bear fruit, so just wait slowly. When all the seeds grow up this time, it will be time to drink some tea!

If he needed to open up more tea gardens in the future, he could probably open up four tea gardens on the same level, and the suitable planting height for tea gardens was between 80 and 110, which meant that Zhou Ren could build five more layers as tea gardens.

Of course, that was also a matter for the future. There was no need for it now, or rather, there was not enough manpower, and it was not worth the cost.

After planting the tea, he raised his head and continued to look into the distance. The giant slime seemed to have traveled half the distance, and was approaching the place where they saw the two-headed giant the day before yesterday!

"It's time to go down and take a look!" Zhou Ren said. He closed all the platform's fence doors, and then went straight down the stairs. It was time to check on the slime. If it was really a corrosive slime, then things would really be interesting.

Just as he was rushing towards the gate, a small figure had already put away the fishing rod and picked up the bear that was trying to crawl away.

"Bear! Let's go, let's climb the stairs!" She carried the tearful bear towards the steps that Zhou Ren had just repaired.

On the other side, all the mercenaries were slowly retreating. They looked at the giant creature, which was almost ten meters high, and couldn't help but feel a little scared.

Compared to the two-headed giant, this guy seemed more worthy of fear. After all, how big was the two-headed giant? This was a moving square two-story building.

If such a building were to fall down, it would probably result in death or injury!

Locke was still standing in front of the wall with a pale face. The injuries he had suffered before didn't seem to have completely healed. He was also a little worried looking at the giant creature in front of him.

"Mayor Locke, how's the situation?" Shea and Anna came out after changing their clothes. They naturally saw the situation in front of them.

"Princess, Miss Anna, this giant creature doesn't seem to be aggressive, but it is incredibly huge and is constantly moving towards Pine Leaf Town!" Locke said, "At this rate, it will break through the defense line here in at most ten minutes!"

On the wall, a team of elf archers were shooting arrows at the slime, but the arrows that could repel the giant disappeared directly when they touched the slime, as if a mud cow had entered the sea.

On the other side, a middle-aged man in a mage's robe was waving his staff, and earth spikes were already forming, but they couldn't cause any damage to the slime.

The middle-aged man was the new president of the Mercenary Guild—Brown. He shook his head with some annoyance, "No, shaping magic is completely ineffective!"

Locke's expression became even more solemn as he looked at Shia, "Your Highness, going to Silvermoon City now is probably..."

Shia waved her hand, "I know, I'll try defensive spells!"

"If it still doesn't work," Father Havali said, "I'm afraid we'll have to prepare heavy weapons!"

Their thoughts were almost unanimous. If there were no accidents, this creature was probably a rare anti-magic creature.

Shia waved her staff in the gradually swirling wind, and a huge shield appeared in front of the slime, blocking its path. Then, it seemed to glance here.

Then, the slime jumped directly up, crossed the huge shield, and continued to walk in this direction.

"This..." Shia was also stunned. She didn't expect this guy to jump so high!

As an elven princess, she has always had many trump cards, but they are all large-scale magical killings. The killing of anti-magic creatures should be done by warriors or rangers.

Since physical objects cannot be blocked, I am afraid that mental magic will be even less useful!

Anna became impatient, "If it really doesn't work, I'll just throw it out. What's the matter with everyone!"

"Your Excellency Anna, I'm afraid it won't work!" Locke said, "We've tried it. All close-range weapons will be corroded. We can't get close to it at all!"

"This is not an ordinary monster at all. This is simply a godspawn without divinity!" Father Havali said, and his holy light also failed.

I'm afraid only godspawn would be so difficult to deal with. Magic can't attack it, and physical attacks are ineffective!

The newest novels are all first published on 69shu.com!

Locke pondered for a moment, "Let's evacuate from here first! Its target doesn't seem to be the town, but to pass by the town!"

He held the traces that the cavalry had scouted out. The black corrosive traces were actually very easy to identify. It was a straight line, and the line showed that the black slime would brush past the town in a straight line.

There was no way, he could only gamble on this possibility now, because all of their attacks were ineffective!

The soldiers quickly separated from the mercenaries. Unlike the civilians, this group of guys who cherished their lives very much performed a real rapid escape.

Soon, the people in front of Zhou Ren's wall had all been cleared, leaving only a few soldiers on horseback waiting for the black monster to come!

"Shia! Look at its route, isn't it Zhou Ren's territory?" Anna suddenly discovered, "Zhou Ren and Leah are both inside!"

Princess Shia shook her head, "Let's go in first and see if this black monster can break through Zhou Ren's strange wall. If it doesn't work, we can actually find a way to trap it!"

She was much calmer than Anna, and she also hoped to see a collision between two characters who were outside their understanding, which made the people around her a little dazed!

Anna also reacted, "But... no, I still have to go in and say something first!"

Shia followed her, but the two entered a little late. Just as they walked into the territory, Zhou Ren was waiting for them at the door.

"Zhou Ren, that monster is coming towards your territory!" Anna said, "Where's Leah?"

Zhou Ren pointed behind him, "Leah is inside the territory, she will be fine!"

He pointed to the front again, "Can't you guys stop this guy?"

"This black monster can't be attacked by magic, and can't be stopped. Arrow attacks are ineffective and it is highly corrosive!" Shia explained, "It's coming soon. If your wall can't stop it, leave quickly!"

They only had a sense of tension, but not much of a sense of crisis. After all, they could run away if it really didn't work, and there would be no life crisis.

But Zhou Ren shook his head. When he knew that this slime was a black slime, he knew that this was a change caused by his arrival.

"Is it finally starting to spawn monsters?" Zhou Ren said, taking out the bow and arrow from his body.

"You guys leave here first. If I guessed correctly, this black slime is here to find me!" He said, "The territory's barrier can't stop it!"

"You guys leave here first! It's very dangerous here!"

Although he said that, Zhou Ren was not afraid. He had thought about what to do when the monster came a long time ago. Now it was just a not-so-powerful monster!

He took out his bow and arrow, and then took out a flint, and ignited all the ground in front of him!

"This is my battle!" Zhou Ren said, "My first battle!"

Anna didn't believe it, "You can tell at a glance that you haven't experienced any battles. Don't mess around, okay?"

Of course, her eyesight was fine. Zhou Ren looked like the kind of person who had never experienced a battle, and she didn't know why he was so determined to fight?

Of course, Zhou Ren knew that he had never fought before, but the battles in MC never depended on bravery or anything else, right? It depended on familiarity with creatures and effective use of tools, which was the key to victory.

Seeing Zhou Ren's persistence, Shia came over and held Anna back, "Since he is so persistent, he probably has his own methods!"

Zhou Ren's bow was taken out again. Locke saw him wiping the bow in his hand, and he suddenly understood where Zhou Ren's confidence came from.

He was deeply impressed by the battle that night. The demon creations, gnolls and two-headed giants, who should not have been contaminated with flames, were wailing in the flames!

He asked Father Havali, and the other party flipped through the church's collection of books for a while and told him that there was a flame in this world that could ignite demons, but there was no special flame with the same color as ordinary flames.

"You want to see that eternal flame!" Father Havali said, "I can only think of one kind of flame, which is the same as ordinary flames, with dazzling red and hot light, but this kind of flame can burn everything. It's called—Godfire!"

But he shook his head decisively, "You and I both know that this is impossible."

Zhou Ren naturally didn't know what the group of people in the distance were thinking. He just watched the huge slime jump over the wall, corrode the torches he had put down, and then jump high, crashing into the transparent wall that everyone thought was indestructible!

Zhou Ren held the hand holding the bow, "It's now!"
