Chapter 602 Zombie Disaster (8000)

Lianna turned her head to look at the center, where a towering wall blocked most of the sight.

Many magical supplies and materials were constantly sent in.

Most of the gnoll and kobold construction workers who had returned from the Catachan demiplane after studying for more than half a year were busy working in it.

Lianna, who knew the progress of the project, naturally knew that most of the structure of the teacher's large wizard tower was actually buried deep underground.

These buildings on the ground were more of a "bait" to attract people's attention.

If someone spent a lot of energy and a huge price to destroy and damage the wizard tower.

Then the real wizard tower hidden in the dark would give a sharp and fatal counterattack!

Even the great archmage of Kno-Norman, who presided over the design and construction of the wizard tower, did not know this. Only a very few people in the territory knew of its existence and authority.

Of course, the wizard tower is also an invisible gold-eating monster.

In addition to the resources and funds needed for people's lives, improvement, and the development of the territory, the other resources obtained by the Gulf Territory through trade, production, and mining are basically invested in it.

If it were in the past, Lianna would think that the huge consumption and expenditure would bring huge burdens and pressure to the people in the territory.

In Lianna's previous cognition, if the lord and the territory were short of money, they would use various means to plunder from the hands of the people.

Taxation and conscription are often the most useful and practical means.

But for the Gulf Territory, these materials consumed by the territory will bring real benefits and profits to other producers in the territory, making everyone richer.

Lianna, who has always been obsessed with arcane research and mechanical engineering, has also begun to try to learn some knowledge about territory development.

Lianna thinks very clearly that strength is indeed important, and thoughts and cognition are more important.

Otherwise, it is just a weapon.

Inside the wall.

Matthew watched the establishment of a giant mobile production line. He carefully checked every component to ensure that it could run stably and continuously.

Knowledge and technology obtained from the Kor elf captives.

The bottom technology of the Silver Leaf Family.

Cooperating with Matthew to personally participate in the research and overcome difficulties.

This is how this strategic production equipment was completed.

Fully automatic advanced magic weapons and equipment production line!

With it, the Gulf Territory can mass-produce high-quality high-level magic weapons and equipment with a success rate of more than 70%.

It can help the growing Gulf Territory army to provide high-quality high-level magic weapons and equipment, and strengthen their advantages in weapons and equipment.

Matthew will never be satisfied with the status quo.

As time goes by, the enemies faced by the Gulf Territory will become stronger and stronger.

All Gulf Territory soldiers must work hard to learn and grow.

They must reach the limit of their efforts.

If they can make a breakthrough in their original qualifications, they can step onto a new level.

This situation is becoming more and more common with the sufficient supply of materials in the Gulf Territory.

If the warriors are really limited by their qualifications, have enough achievements, and have proved their loyalty, they can take the initiative to further strengthen their combat effectiveness.

Matthew took Annie slowly into the underground. The spacious and bright environment reflects his attitude towards the working environment.

A new set of living material circulation system equipment made Annie's eyes shine involuntarily.

It consists of a pure water summoning device and a water flow purification device, which can meet the supply of domestic and industrial water.

Living material recycling and utilization devices, fertilizer generation and production devices, are also a very good combination of equipment.

They can not only solve the garbage of life and production, but also reuse them to meet self-sufficiency to the greatest extent.

Automated agricultural planting areas, automatic breeding and cultivation screening devices, are devices prepared for food production.

It can ripen crops by releasing spells to complete the supply of basic food with high yield in a short time.

It can also maintain the quality of grain seeds through regular screening and stable spell effects.

The production of water and food determines the practicality and purpose of these devices.

"As long as a portion of magic power is input regularly, or elemental crystals are used, or even the energy supply of magic channels is supplied, they can be kept running for a long time."

"Moreover, there are automatic maintenance golems around these devices to ensure that they can operate stably and automatically for a long time."

"The storage space of the device itself has also stored many different kinds of food, medicinal materials, and seeds of magical plants, and it can be upgraded and replaced in the future."

"The overall device runs stably, is easy to operate, and is strong and durable. It is the last guarantee for self-sufficiency in strongholds, camps, fortresses and other areas."

After hearing Matthew's introduction, Annie rubbed her hands expectantly and asked:

"When will this thing be delivered to the fortress? It shouldn't be cheap, right?"

The Silver Leaf Family, which recently received a large amount of resources and funds, is worried about where to spend the money and wants to quickly transform it into combat power.

Facing the terrifying Kor Elf Kingdom, no matter how well prepared you are, you will still be uneasy.

The device in front of you is simply a magical tool for defending cities and fortresses.

The abundance of living materials will give every defending soldier a very strong determination and confidence to defend.

With it, Annie believes that the chances of the defenders winning can be increased by at least 30%.

Matthew is very happy about the transformation of the Silver Leaf Family.

The reason is very simple. It is hard to say how many other families and forces of the Elf have secretly surrendered to the Kor Elf Kingdom.

If we expect them to work together, there is a great possibility that the Rocky Mountains will be divided and cut again.

You know, before the attack of the Kor Elf Kingdom, the total force of the Elf in the Rocky Mountains reached 450,000.

Not much different from the opponent, but lost miserably.

Matthew made a special effort to understand and found that except for a few families and forces, they were all just cleaning up their own messes and would even withdraw their troops on their own initiative.

On the surface, it was 550,000 vs. 450,000!

In reality, it was 550,000 vs. 45 times 10,000!

It would be strange if the El Elves didn't lose!

After the Gulf Territory and the Silver Leaf Family "contracted" the Rocky Mountains.

Not only can they hold the defense line intact in their hands, but they can also enjoy the "Liao salary" treatment of a certain dynasty in real history.

In the early stage, the other party must have paid honestly, and the reaction a few days ago was the answer.

In the later stage, with the construction of the new defense line and the Silver Leaf Family's stable control over the Rocky Mountains.

They might want the Silver Leaf Family, the Gulf Territory and the Cole Elf Kingdom to fight to the death.

However, Matthew didn't care. With their current construction progress, it would take at least two years to complete, and it would take even longer to turn against each other.

With such a period of development, it is enough for the Gulf Territory and the Silver Leaf Family to grow and develop.

They are continuously absorbing population from other areas of the El Elves.

Along with these circulation equipment, there are also some unfinished devices.

Annie did not ask questions, she is always so "knowing".

However, she also had a vague guess that the previous ones were all devices for producing living materials, and the ones behind must be inseparable from development and fighting...

In the lower space of the unfinished Mage Tower.

A brand new underground laboratory is being built.

The rooms with internal solidification space are arranged.

A "storage warehouse" that can accommodate more experimental subjects and materials.

8 operating rooms with complete equipment, clean and tidy, and full of magical aura.

There are also hundreds of Dragoon No. 1 golems standing still and waiting to be activated at any time.

In addition to the laboratory that will stay for a long time in the future.

What shocked Annie even more was the overall architectural material transformation of the underground area.

Monitoring spells all over the inner and outer walls.

Forbidden magic arrays and permanent solidification devices to counter the influence of spells.

Metal layers such as refined gold and magic iron that resist corrosion and excavation.

Space solidification transformation to resist teleportation spells.

Protective mind arrays against the influence of the mind and thoughts.

Annie even saw many holy light spells such as "Purification Array", "Detect Evil", "Expel Demons", "Positive Energy Barrier" and so on that emit dazzling golden light.

For all the attack methods that Annie can think of, there are corresponding arrangements in various parts of the building structure.

It is precisely because of this that a large amount of various supplies and materials are consumed.

A very wonderful sense of security made Annie inexplicably moved.

The Gulf Commander Camp.

The soldiers who were resting always looked at the busy camp next to them involuntarily.

There, several large towns were under construction.

Some soldiers gathered together and curiously discussed the towns being built.

"What is it used for? A training room?"

"It's possible. As more and more people come to train, we have to divide them into areas."

"I heard from several bosses that they might build a more realistic training camp to improve the training effect."

"More realistic? That means we will be given real enemies?"

"There won't be real enemies, but their strength and tactics should be similar..."

"The training is getting more and more difficult. Is it time for us to start actual combat?"

"Don't think too much. Train well, work hard to improve your strength, and learn more combat skills and experience."

"I also got a message that one of the towns will be built into a "colosseum"!"

"It's not a colosseum, but a single-soldier confrontation base that simulates real combat."

"But let's not think about it. If you want to get in, you must have at least high-level strength."

"I'd better complete the soldier training task first, and strive to go to the battlefield as soon as possible to gain more merits."

"After you have merits, you can buy more magic equipment and props."

"Okay, the barracks are not prepared enough? Are you going to bring more yourself?"

"Hehe, it's better to be prepared..."

Just as the soldiers said.

The weapons and equipment that the Gulf Territory has equipped the soldiers with are already very excellent.

Even the extremely rare potions and magic scrolls in other armies, the grassroots combat teams in squads and platoons, have a certain amount of rations.

Even the Cole Elf Kingdom, which just fought with the Gulf Territory, is not so "rich".

Of course, this is directly related to the other side's belief in elite troops.

Every soldier trained in the barracks is eager to gain stronger strength and learn more combat experience and skills.

In this way, they can get better equipment, get better salary rewards, and survive better in battle.

In addition to the usual education and guidance, the barracks occasionally release some rumors.

For example, recently, the news that the Gulf Territory is preparing to provide advanced magic weapons and equipment has reached the ears of every soldier.

Moreover, the rewards and incentives for high-level professionals have also been directly announced.

"Advanced enchanted weapons and equipment."

"One customized magic item."

"One bottle of secondary life potion x 1."

"200 gold coins subsidy per month."

"Get group healing and group protection scrolls x 2."

"Open the purchase authority of advanced magic items."

In addition to these tangible rewards, there are many additional development arrangements.

Moreover, after the last war medal ceremony.

The military camp also specially arranged a declaration meeting to introduce the news of their promotion to high-level professionals to everyone.

In order to motivate all soldiers in the army.

Striving to become a high-level professional has been given more meaning.

Of course, Matthew's emphasis on the army is not just the pursuit of their individual combat capabilities.

There are two types of improvement for soldiers in the Gulf Territory.

The first is the improvement of personal strength.

This is the path of promotion for professionals in the army.

They usually have excellent personal combat effectiveness, or extremely outstanding ability to strengthen and assist combat effects.

The improvement of strength enables them to have the qualifications to use corresponding weapons and equipment.

Combat positions and combat tasks will be further divided and positioned.

Generally speaking, the stronger the strength, the stronger the weapons and equipment, and the more important the task.

Therefore, they can get more rewards and merits, and improve their personal merit level and income.

At present, the Gulf Territory has 1,746 high-level professionals.

Matthew hopes that this number can double by the end of this year.

The second is the improvement of military rank ability.

Simply put, this is the promotion path of commanders.

On the basis of meeting personal ability standards, they have corresponding levels of combat experience and technology.

Through the tactics and technical learning of the corresponding target level, they accept more difficult theoretical and practical training assessments.

In this way, they have the foundation and qualifications for promotion to a higher level commander.

They are usually called reserves, serving as assistants and combat command cores of formal commanders.

After about half a year of internship assessment, or participating in two command operations, you can be promoted from reserve to regular.

The increase in the number of commanders is naturally matched by the increase in the number of troops in the Gulf Territory.

After the reserve commander is promoted, he will lead a group of retrained recruits.

They will take away 1/4 of the veterans of the original troops.

In this way, the combat effectiveness of the new recruits will be rapidly improved.

The old troops that were originally withdrawn will naturally not suffer.

The most outstanding group of recruits in the recruit training will be added to their team to provide fresh blood with potential and ability.

Considering that the Gulf Territory has provoked the Cole elves, the Japanese pirates in the sea are eyeing it.

The demand for more professional troops in the Gulf Territory is naturally increasing.

From last year's monthly recruitment of 2,000 soldiers, it has now increased to 5,000 soldiers per month.

The total number of troops has reached as many as 180,000.

Among them, the number of transformed soldiers has reached 2,000.

Their strength information is not included in the statistics, and they enjoy super high treatment.

Who makes them face the greatest danger?

The number of elite troops with an average professional level of 8 has reached 80,000.

Except for a small number of recruits, most of them are trained by the Gulf Territory.

The number of ordinary soldiers is also 80,000.

They will have fewer combat missions, and their important daily tasks are to receive training and complete the transformation of their bodies and combat skills.

The number of recruits remains at around 20,000.

They hardly participate in any battles, but are more interested in understanding how to become qualified soldiers and seeing and understanding the many enemies of the Gulf Territory.

It will take about 3 to 4 months for them to complete all the training and be sent to various teams.

The growing number of troops requires more and more supplies.

Fortunately, the Gulf Territory can produce most of the supplies consumed by the army, and the output is getting higher and higher.

Factory area of ​​the Gulf Territory.

All factories are undergoing large-scale expansion, and there is a busy scene everywhere.

Except for the production lines used to train new staff, other production lines are completing a new round of upgrades.

Most of the processes that require effort or rough processing will be replaced by more labor-saving golem production machinery.

While saving a lot of manpower and material resources, more production lines can be expanded to complete the leap in production quantity and capacity.

Although there is a lack of a coordinating center like the intelligent remote control command center in the real world, the production factory of the Gulf Territory has also taken the most critical step towards semi-automatic production.

According to statistics from relevant staff, production efficiency can be increased by more than 3-5 times compared with before.

It is with such a huge improvement that the materials transported back from various places in the Gulf Territory can be digested.

Products that can reach 500,000 people per day can be produced.

Only in this way can everyone in the Gulf Territory be satisfied with sufficient material supply, as well as better and better training and life.

Of course, more than 70% of the products will be swallowed by the Dwarf Kingdom and the Silver Leaf Family.

The demand of the gray dwarf forces, the forces and families of the southern countries, and the major caravan teams in the New World is increasing day by day.

Their demand has gradually exceeded that of the Netheril Empire, which originally occupied the majority of trade.

Even in this case, there are still many materials stored in warehouses, which have become the material reserves of the Gulf Territory to prevent accidents.

Roads and railways are being built rapidly.

They gradually run through the entire Gulf Territory, connecting strongholds, camps, and cities.

Although the teleportation array is efficient, the huge consumption and demand for space materials restrict its popularization and generalization.

The Gulf Territory, which accommodates a larger population, has sent a large number of educated and transformed people to various strongholds, camps, and cities.

This has led to the rapid development of these areas, with larger scale, higher output, better environment, and richer resources.

Especially the latter two changes.

It is one of the most outstanding research results of the Gulf Territory Druid Research Institute.

Through several common and transformative combination plants and organisms, the desert, wasteland, saline-alkali land, and deserted islands are adapted to make them suitable for living.

The area with the greatest transformation effect is naturally the dark and deep underground world.

Through the improvement of luminous mosses, they can release brighter light.

Thus, the area where the Gulf Territory fortress and camp are located is illuminated like daylight.

This is also a good way to attract enemies and monsters in the underground world, provided that you have enough strength and will not become the prey and food of the other party.

For this, Druid Lao Li received a huge reward from the will of nature.

From the original level 19, it has been upgraded to the extraordinary peak level 20.

Lao Li has a strong confidence in breaking through the existing shackles and stepping into the legendary level.

"The next step is to implement further in-depth transformation."

"Not only should they be transformed into places suitable for living, but also into rich and fertile places with abundant resources!"

Matthew naturally gave the greatest support to the first person in the territory who had the most hope of breaking through and entering the legendary level.

He handed over the control area of ​​the entire underground world to Lao Li for management, allowing him to give full play to his talents.

The rapid development of all aspects of the Bay Territory has greatly improved the comprehensive strength of the territory.

Of course, it has also brought considerable pressure to the economy of the territory.

Butler Ralph stared at the lord with burning eyes and "introduced" him to the major spending projects in the territory.

To sum it up, it is a sentence:

"Everything is developing well, but there is a lack of money!"

Matthew rubbed his hands helplessly, and was also a little worried about the lack of money.

In fact, the Bay Territory recovered nearly 20 million gold coins by selling the battle information of the Cole Elves and some spoils of war.

But in order to stabilize the defense line of the Rocky Mountains and provide a batch of assistance to civilians who were engaged in early land reclamation and development, 3 million gold coins have been invested.

The remaining balance is the only working capital that can be used in the territory.

In this case, Butler Ralph naturally has to prepare for a rainy day.

The "Dragon Madness Disaster" caused by the Dragon Madness Maze has plunged the entire northern continent into a thirst for military supplies.

It was also by seizing this opportunity that the large amount of military supplies produced by the Gulf Territory sold very well.

But as the "Dragon Madness Disaster" gradually subsided.

The production capacity of the major territories and kingdoms gradually recovered.

Although most of the weapons and equipment they produced were not as good as the products of the Gulf Territory in terms of quality and price.

However, they still snatched a considerable part of the orders.

Therefore, the sales of military supplies in the Gulf Territory fell into a state of stagnant growth.

If it were not for the turmoil in Falcico, there might be a decline in sales.

Matthew recalled that the Gulf Territory was basically in the activation period of major plot events during its rapid development.

Under Matthew's deliberate guidance, the Gulf Territory made arrangements and preparations in advance.

When the crisis came, it not only successfully withstood the pressure brought by the crisis.

It also took advantage of the situation to earn a considerable amount of development funds from the surrounding territories, organizations, and forces.

For the Gulf Territory, whose development has been on the right track.

Crisis, to some extent, can be called an "opportunity"!

Matthew recalled the memories in his mind, his eyes swept across the map around the Gulf Territory, and when he fell on the Blood Moon City, he suddenly raised his eyebrows.

Now is the 131st year of the Nether Era, and the time has come to October.

It was about half a year before Blood Moon City discovered part of the underground ruins of the Goblin Kingdom.

It was at that time that the sudden outbreak of the horrific disaster caused a great loss of Blood Moon City's strength.

Not only was it unable to suppress the "riot" in the underground ruins, it was also attacked by the coalition of orcs and barbarians...

Now Matthew thought that all this happened so suddenly and so coincidentally, with a very familiar taste of the Cole elves.

With a gleam of light in his eyes, Matthew silently touched his chin and said under the expectant gaze of Butler Ralph:

"Arrange some personnel to increase the research and production of machinery and golems..."

"Notify the priests who are in internship to prepare to start mass production of holy water..."

"Communicate with the Goddess Church, we need to purchase a large number of Holy Light Spell Scrolls..."

"In addition, start contacting the Earth Mother Church..."

Listening to Matthew's arrangements, Butler Ralph did not hesitate as usual.

In his opinion, this is the talent of the Lord and the blessing of the entire territory.

Just hold it firmly!

Matthew thought back to the shocking changes a few months later, hesitated for a while, and suddenly slapped his forehead.

He was a little off.

The current situation in Blood Moon City is completely different from what he remembered.

Although Blood Moon City also suffered from the invasion of orcs, the loss of the Blood Fortress, and the impact of the Dragon Madness.

But compared with the original situation of great loss of strength, it is much better.

After all, the Lord of the City is at least not short of money, and can freely carry out various research.

Blood Moon City took advantage of the development of the Bay Territory, and various teleportation arrays, magic props, golem materials and parts and other products sold well.

Not to mention making a lot of money, at least it has embarked on the road of development again.

Thanks to the care of Harley Knight.

Blood Moon City purchased a large number of weapons and equipment from the Bay Territory and completed the training and formation of the standing troops again.

When facing the impact of the aftermath of the Dragon Madness.

Blood Moon City easily blocked the dragon beasts that came around the Bay Territory and made a small profit.

Even the barbarian raiders who caused Blood Moon City to lose blood continuously and lose its ability to develop and recover in memory.

They were firmly blocked by the Bay Territory in the north of the Silver Moon River.

They fought quite fiercely with the Bay Territory warriors stationed in the riverside strongholds and the seaside fortresses.

Well, that place has also become one of the training grounds for the new recruits of the Bay Territory.

It is specially used to let the new recruits of the Bay Territory and the new recruits of the Third and Eighth Legions see blood.

The current situation of Blood Moon City is much better than in memory, except that a large number of adventurers have been sucked away by the Bay Territory.

If the other party really wants to make a plan, it should take more time to prepare.

Unless, there are other external factors involved...

Looking at the map carefully, Matthew's mouth curled up slightly, and he said to himself very straightforwardly:

"Instead of letting those idiots destroy the ruins, resulting in a large loss of technology and wealth."

"Why don't I take over in advance and take control of this entire underground ruins."

"Remember that there are many extraordinary-level war puppets and golem technologies in that ruins."

"If it can be absorbed and digested, the production capacity of golems and mechanical puppets in the Gulf Territory will definitely step onto a new level."

"In the future, it may not be impossible to mass-produce extraordinary-level combat golems, or even legendary ones..."

You know, deep in the underground world control area of ​​the Gulf Territory, there is still an unactivated diamond golem imprisoned.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he could move forward, and Matthew quickly made arrangements.

When Matthew was making various preparations to develop the underground ruins of Blood Moon City in advance.

The Blood Moon City that he had been thinking about was now in a quiet and peaceful atmosphere.

The developed and expanded production factory, although emitting billowing black smoke, brought a large number of jobs to the surrounding people.

With money in hand, everyone can buy goods from the Gulf Territory at a cheaper price, and life will naturally become better.

Of course, many people have complaints about the wastewater and waste gas discharged by the factory, believing that they are harmful to the body and will damage everyone's health, and must be closed or relocated.

Some people also said.

Even if these factories can stay here, they must have a complete waste treatment process like those production factories in the Gulf Territory.

Doing so will not cause any impact on the surrounding environment and everyone's health.

343, who started to manage it, ignored it.

Even if this level of wastewater and waste gas caused some damage, all hidden dangers can be easily eliminated with a holy water donation ceremony.

The current priority is to strengthen the production capacity of various materials in Blood Moon City to meet the needs of subsequent production orders from the Gulf Territory.

When we make money and have more money in hand, we can naturally arrange and deal with it like the Gulf Territory.

As long as the city lord has more gold coins to squander, the residents' income increases, and the territory's income increases, 343's management rights will be unbreakable.

On the contrary, 343 has already started to prepare for those "idiots" with ill intentions.

It is not troublesome to deal with them, but it still takes some effort to deal with them quietly.

After gradually realizing the benefits of population growth.

Although 343 did not dare to intercept the population sent to the Gulf Territory, it also used some means to absorb many refugees and civilians from the south and west.

She also reduced the size of the villages and towns around Blood Moon City.

Not only did it make them more centralized and better for defense and management, but it also made them undertake some production and development tasks.

Just when the Blood Moon City on the surface was gradually changing under the control of 343 because of the rise of the Gulf Territory.

The underground ruins that originally made Blood Moon City develop have become more peaceful and dangerous than usual.

Many adventurers who entered here to excavate the ruins have vaguely discovered something wrong.

The number of ruins monsters has decreased.

The number of broken corpses has increased.

There are also many mysterious adventurers.

In this case, the adventurers here did not immediately report the abnormal situation to the Adventurer Union staff like the adventurers in the Bay Territory.

Instead, they tried to quietly explore and find the reasons for these changes, hoping to make a profit from it.

Their idea is good.

Unfortunately, they found the wrong target at the wrong time.

"Ah...!"

The shrill screams echoed in the dark and complex underground ruins.

When the screams disappeared.

In a secret room covered with strange bloody patterns, the blood from the broken corpses gathered towards the blood pool in the center of the secret room.

A pale human stared with strange blood-red eyes, silently chanting obscure spells.

Lark, who was watching outside the secret room, looked at his face and body that were gradually turning into a troll, and a strange smile appeared on his face.

Next to Lark, Blood Hand Kahn, wearing blood armor, exuded the tyrannical aura of a super warrior, and threw the unfortunate guy who was still squirming into the secret room.

Sora, who was next to Lark, rubbed his red and swollen eyes and said in a low voice:

"The zombie disaster can be launched, let those guys from the Church of Eternal Life prepare!"

Lark nodded respectfully, turned his head and looked into the depths of the terrifying ruins in the distance, and whispered silently in his heart:

"This time, Blood Moon City and the Bay Territory are doomed!"

The disaster is coming!
