Chapter 222: Sky Island Clearing Plan

This island, controlled by Ji Lin, is completely covered by natural green fields. In one month, the brown wooden buildings on the island are expanding and growing rapidly. If you look down from the sky, you can see that the defense camp suddenly appears like three colonies, one large, one medium and one small, and then expands.

Outside the coverage of the system outpost, all construction can only rely on their hands, and use their hands to slowly build one defensive fortification after another.

The system will still provide them with blueprints, and even build a building material package containing all building materials for them near the outpost, but the transcendent assistance construction speed and ability no longer exist. The people can take the building material package containing all the components in the blueprint and leave the outpost to build the corresponding buildings step by step.

Leaving the radius of the primary outpost for 500 meters, they can only rely on their hands to build the corresponding blueprint bit by bit.

They have successfully deployed the outpost near the micro-ore vein. The small floating stone ore vein can only rely on the people to bring building materials to build the musket sentry tower used by the musket shooters.

Limited by the efficiency of transportation and the inability to rely on the system to obtain extremely fast building construction capabilities, the new defense plan no longer has units with poor defense effects such as wooden walls.

Instead, it is a node defense composed of multiple musket towers that interact and provide cover.

The threat from the ground they need to face is no longer great at this time. When Ji Lin returned to the territory to handle official business, the last task assigned to Chang Heng was to ensure the safety of the staff of the sky island and ensure that the island can be operated safely.

In order to achieve this goal, Chang Heng organized the elimination of local wild animals in the forest terrain on this small sky island many times, and adopted the method of "building a strong camp and fighting a stupid battle" to advance from the forest terrain inward little by little.

Don't be reckless and don't underestimate the enemy.

Like a steadily advancing city wall, don't give the slightest chance.

The musketeers stood on the outskirts of the forest, holding guns and on guard, and the scattered scout hunting spiders blocked the front of the line. After the hunting spider dies, as long as there are recall quotas at the end of the month, it can also be used to revive combat consumables such as scout hunting spiders. No matter what tempts them in the forest, they will not go deep into it.

The grassroots were educated to regard the scout spiders as "friendly war dogs", and every officer in charge of dispatching them knew very well that kindness was not good for the army - they were also excellent consumables.

The woodcutters and collectors took advantage of this time to pack up and take away all the trees, shrubs, and plants taller than a person's calf in the area they controlled. When it got dark, the team retreated, and only a very low bush and weeds remained in the area they were responsible for.

As for the plants that were packed away, the plants that could be grown and eaten were planted in the newly opened farmland of the outpost. See if they can reproduce and survive. As for other magical plants, they were also transplanted to the farmland. Who knows if they might need them one day.

'Farmland (abundant elemental energy/abundant mana)'

'You can plant most of the plant crops that only grow in special environments and have high energy requirements in the environment here. '

'A very good piece of soil, but it is not a simple matter to grow crops on it for a long time. ’

Ordinary wood was split into firewood on the spot, transported back to the outpost and hung in the market.

Every time they pushed forward, the space for dangerous creatures on the island to hide was reduced.

Although this method could not be successful in one battle, it was the most suitable steady and steady tactic for them.

A total of 160 garrison troops were deployed in the three garrisons. Chang Heng could only dispatch 140 troops and 1,500 scout hunting spiders lying in the sun... After they arrived here, they ate more fat than in the territory.

Even if they were fed the same quota of food as in the territory, these scout hunting spiders were still getting fat. I don’t know where they went to dig for food.

Every day, they ate a little bit of the forest area on the island and did not enter the forest to fight actively.

No matter what was hidden in the forest, after gradually losing the cover of the forest, in the open battle zone, that was the advantage range of the musketeers and grenadiers.

Distance was their biggest advantage.

The island is not big, so they can advance steadily by changing the local ecology.

As for why they don't use more efficient flames... it's too noticeable. Once a forest fire starts to spread, it will burn for several days, and everyone can see a column of billowing black smoke moving in the clouds.

And all the rare resources, forestry resources, rare plants, and materials from magic plants and magic creatures in the forest will be burned at the same time. This fire can burn the wealth of the entire territory.

Changheng suddenly remembered what the lord said to him every day: "Setting fire to the mountain will lead to life in prison."

Looking at the forest in front of him, which has been compressed to only a quarter of its original size from the watchtower, Changheng was in a good mood and felt that he could hand in a qualified answer sheet for the clearing task to the lord.

The workers of their collection team no longer need to approach the edge of the forest and risk collecting rare plants growing naturally on the wild grass.

For outsiders like them, forests represent danger, and the difficult-to-reconnaissance areas in large forests represent extreme danger. No one knew how many dangerous creatures were mixed in behind the vast forests. If they were not careful, the local creatures would instantly send the soldiers and workers into recall status.

He saw a small white cotton ball emerging from the ground. He held it in his hand and it was soft.

"General Chang, this is a wind-riding dandelion. Now should be its flowering season." A scholar among the adventurers stood beside him and explained to Chang Heng.

"The leaves and tender stems of this plant can be eaten and planted."

Dandelions are special in this world. Since the islands are far apart, the plants between different islands have naturally evolved into a variety of strange ways of sowing, in addition to relying on small flying creatures such as floating rays to carry them to another island.

There are light seeds with leaves like wings, seeds that are hooked on other creatures, and seeds that make themselves delicious and attract other flying creatures to eat, and sow seeds with seeds left in excrement.

This super fluffy dandelion is a type of dandelion. The fully opened fluffy hair layer is as wide as a palm. They will rise to the sky with the wind and drift to another island little by little with the wind.

No one knows how these dandelions can accurately reach two islands that are so far apart.

They take root, sprout, and then bear their own fruits in the next season, opening their fluffy balls and flying in the wind.
