Chapter 1092: The Next Step
Chapter 1092: The Next Step
Qingu Xindao, the dimensional world is still different from the purely virtual game world, but it is more fantasy than the real real world.
Qingu: "That's right. Does that mean that you can exchange things with merit and gold coins?"
Wan Bing: "Of course."
The exchange hall is the core of the entire defense station. When Qingu entered it, if it weren't for the circle of formations in the middle of the ground, he would have thought it was an ordinary empty room.
Wan Bing put his hand on a protruding crystal ball on the ground, and then, a three-dimensional interface appeared above the formation.
There are several options on the interface: merit exchange, world mall, application.
There is another line in the lower right corner: Xiliang Ancient Road Defense Station 2, merit: 23, gold coins: 6
Wan Bing explained: You only need to put the corpse of the monster into the array, and then click on the merit exchange. 20 merit points will be deducted for each unit of materials exchanged. So you have to keep killing monsters and gold coins to... let the soldiers survive.
A unit of materials refers to the rated materials required by the defense station every day.
For example, there are only forty people in the defense station now, so all the food, water, etc. consumed by the forty people in a day are counted as one unit.
If there are 400 people in the defense station, then it is the sum of the materials consumed by the 400 people in a day.
Qingu puts his hand on the crystal ball, and the lower right corner of the interface becomes: Free Mercenary, Xiaogu, merit (prestige) 18, gold coins: 155
Qingu asked: "How many merits are there for killing a monster?"
Wan Bing: "20, the first-level monsters are only 20, but in the current situation, even if there are higher-level monsters coming, we can't deal with them."
Qingu pondered for a moment, okay, now you guys exchange the most urgent supplies you need first, and I will take care of the rest.
But I couldn't help but feel a little depressed: People get 20 credits for killing a monster, but she only gets 10 credits (prestige) for killing more than a dozen.
However, if she put the monster's corpse directly into the formation, she would not get energy points.
Alas, you can't have your cake and eat it too!
Fortunately, Qingu does not need to deduct "merits" when buying things from the mall, but certain items will have a minimum reputation limit.
Wan Bing did not exchange for water and other consumables, but used all of them for food, which was equivalent to five days.
Then, Qingu used gold coins to buy stones for building the city wall from above. Rebuild the city walls.
1 gold coin can buy two three-foot-high, four-foot-long stones.
Probably out of trust in professional mercenaries, and Qingu's unscathed return from Shahai before, established his position in the hearts of the soldiers.
At this moment, the arrangement Qingu made far exceeded their expectations.
Exchange all the merits and gold coins into food - even if Qingu didn't say it, they would do it, what would they eat if they didn't exchange it? This merit will be exhausted sooner or later.
They were not surprised by Qingu's achievements (prestige) and gold coins, after all, they were mercenaries hired with high salaries from the highest talent center, and they had accumulated it before coming here.
To their surprise, the mercenary exchanged his own gold coins for materials to strengthen the city wall!
Now, the defense station 2 of Xiliang Ancient Road, besides the strength of the soldiers, the biggest problem is that the fortifications here are too weak.
The city wall was dilapidated, and in some places only a very short section had been eroded by wind and sand. Those monsters could easily cross the city wall. Once one slipped away, dozens of points of merit would be deducted from them.
Therefore, they need to spend a lot of effort to guard the gaps in the city wall, instead of focusing on one thing and losing another, so they will be in a mess every time the monsters harass them.
If the city wall can be strengthened, then they can carry out long-range attacks on the city wall and wait for work.
They also wanted to strengthen the city wall, but because a small boss appeared among the monsters, they suffered heavy losses, not to mention hunting monsters to accumulate achievements.
Food is a problem, of course, there is no need to buy materials to strengthen the city wall.
Now, this Xiaogu mercenary helped them, and they were grateful from the bottom of their hearts, and they were even more convinced.
Qingu asked them to use these materials to repair the dilapidated part of the city wall, and hand over the defense during this period to her.
Qingu's plan is to strengthen the rear defense first, and then wipe out those little monsters in the desert a few times.
Then wait until the rear is stable, and then shovel out the monster base in the sand sea. Even if the opponent sends more powerful monsters, she will have some logistical support.
The plan went well.
Wan Bing led the soldiers to repair the city wall with peace of mind, and she went deep into the sand sea again, spawning monsters over and over again.
The rule of spawning green-skinned mobs is that after killing all of them, a new wave will start spawning in one and a half to two days. If there are greenskin monsters left from the previous batch, no matter if there are one or seven left, they will wait until a cycle of five days, and then refresh them.
In five days, Qingu brushed three more waves, earning nearly two hundred gold, more than 20 prestige and more than 20 energy.
Then, Qingu heard the information prompt sound from the role-bound Xiliang Ancient Road Defense Station 2 in his consciousness:
Ding: The city wall of the defense station you bound has been upgraded, the current level is 1, and the basic defense is 500
Hearing this notification sound, Qingu's mind was greatly lifted, and finally he could make a big move - the main reason is that these green-skinned mobs are not difficult to kill at all, one knife at a time.
The level is low, the salary is low, and the key is that the quantity is still small. How can this work? How does this allow her to level up and accumulate energy?
Resolutely, he rushed to the sandbag and slashed wildly.
The sandbags are built with stones, but the construction is worse than the city wall of the Xiliang Ancient Road Defense Station.
It was breached by Qingu in less than an hour, and immediately, a large group of green-skinned mobs burst out of it.
Qingu thought that there would be some kind of magical space inside, which could continuously refresh monsters.
It turned out to be just a very ordinary narrow yurt-like, with an array in the center, and in the center of the array stood a simple stone platform, on which a crystal ball was placed.
No matter whether these green-skinned monsters came out of the formation from the void or returned from the outside, they would lie neatly around the stone platform, bathing in the light of the crystal ball devoutly.
Qingu broke through their fortress, broke the calm, and fled in all directions screaming in panic.
Then they reacted and attacked Qingu one after another.
Qingu has now been upgraded to level 6, it is too easy to deal with these mobs who are only level 1.
In twos and threes, these little guys were dealt with, cleaned the battlefield, and came to the crystal ball.
Qingu thought, is this the infrastructure of the dimensional world or a spoil of war?
Carefully reach out and touch it... If it is a loot, the corresponding attribute value panel and the word "pick up" will appear when you reach out and touch it.
At the moment of touching, the attribute value panel appeared, but there was no word "pick up", but a string of strong currents!
