Chapter 228: The First Enemy Attack on the Territory
On the wilderness plain, a large group of people were marching.
In front of the team were several large mutant scorpions crawling quickly, raising large clouds of dust along the way.
Under the scorching sun, an artificial saddle was installed on the mutant scorpion's back, with two players sitting side by side on it.
A player pulls the reins tied to the mutant's mouth to control the mutant's direction.
The huge team stretched out for several hundred meters. Under the heat, the survivors were all thirsty, but even if they kept pouring water into their mouths, there was no relief at all.
"How long will it take to get there?"
"Sir, it will probably take another hour," Alex responded weakly.
The sun is about to reach the top of our heads and the temperature is getting hotter and hotter.
Jack took out a bottle of water and poured it over his head, but the water evaporated quickly and could not relieve the heat.
He had already eaten up all the ice jelly. The Treasure Pavilion only had a limited amount of it on the shelves every day, and it was impossible to get it.
Today is February 8th of the Wasteland Calendar, the 9th day since the extreme heat disaster began.
The temperature has risen to 48℃-58℃.
The surface temperature can reach over 70 degrees, and ordinary shoes cannot be worn outside.
It only takes a few minutes for the soles of your shoes to turn into a puddle of liquid.
This time, Jack brought 100 players with relatively high territory combat power, as well as these mutant beasts under extremely hot conditions.
Under Xu Jiacheng's arrangement, they invaded a small base about 100 kilometers away from the Guangming Territory.
There are also more than 100 survivors in this base. After Jack entered, he directly killed the base leader, and all the remaining players who resisted were killed.
Those with good combat power were controlled by slave scrolls and followed Jack's team towards the northern wilderness.
All together, Jack's team had about 150 people.
The victory made Jack feel that flattening the treasure pavilion was no problem, so the team set off directly without any rest.
The plain looks flat, but the roads are uneven, and these mutant beasts cannot be completely tamed.
So the team moved very slowly.
As of two o'clock in the afternoon, the shell detection range of the Bright Territory had not yet been reached.
And at this time, the territory of light.
[Territory: Bright Territory]
[Affiliation: Wen Ning]
[Territory Camp: Alien]
【Territory type: Commercial】
[Territory level: Level 3]
[Territory buildings: territory hut, territory transmission tower, territory warehouse, territory shop, territory mechanical guard warehouse, territory tavern, territory resident housing, territory hall, territory resident office... (expand)]
[Territory upgrade: next level, level 4, required materials: 150,000 survival points. Ironwood*10,000KG, granite*1000KG, cement*1000KG, refined steel*200KG, gold ore*500KG, titanium*300KG......(Expand)]
[Territory Citizens: 39]
It takes 5 days to upgrade to level 4.
Wen Ning had more than enough survival points, but refined steel required refined iron and a personal refining furnace to smelt, which was not very efficient, and titanium had never been dug out from the wasteland mines.
It can't even be found on the trading market.
We still have to think of a solution.
When the territory is upgraded to level three, the most important thing is not to continue upgrading, but that after level three, you can install defensive buildings such as arrow towers.
Mira had already taken the materials from Wen Ning's warehouse and started construction early in the morning.
Wen Ning also spent 1.5 million survival points to purchase a Nebula-specific energy monitoring system from Mira's store.
The entire territory can be fully covered, and the movements of everyone inside can be monitored through this monitoring system.
More importantly, when someone invades, it can unfold to form a temporary energy shield to protect the residents in the territory.
Wen Ning coveted Nebula's planetary energy shield, but that thing was very expensive and Mira only had one.
Furthermore, once used, Mira's vitality would be consumed, and the system would not agree to Wen Ning purchasing it.
This thing will be useful to Mira when she rebuilds the nebula, so Wen Ning can only envy it.
"Install super-powered grids on all the outermost low walls. Tell me if there aren't enough."
The area of the territory has doubled again and now reaches 12,000 square meters.
The upper limit of the number of citizens is 700.
There is no city wall option in the territory buildings, and there are no city wall drawings in the manufacturing station, so this work can only be done manually.
So Wen Ning first built a 3-meter-high low wall made of reinforced concrete, and used a super-energy power grid to surround the entire territory.
There is a spike fence inside. If an animal or player directly crosses the super energy grid, the 10-meter-wide spike fence below can also make it drink a lot of water.
The work on the city walls will be left to the people and robots.
Near the edge of the low wall, Wen Ning placed an arrow tower every 100 meters, all upgraded to the highest level. The third-level arrow tower has four launching devices, and a single arrow tower can accommodate more than 100,000 arrows.
It’s a pity that even if the territory’s own arrow tower is upgraded to the highest level, it is still made of wood.
One side of Wen Ning's territory is close to the sea. The larger the territory, the larger the area of the ocean.
Wen Ning considered that it would be possible to build some offshore facilities, or directly establish a small base on the sea and equip it with some escape boats.
While Wen Ning was examining the plan, Hu Zi ran over in the scorching sun.
She kept sobbing all the way, as if she had suffered some injustice.
"Roar..." I can't do this job anymore!
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
Hu Zi immediately felt aggrieved like a child. Before he could explain a few words, he immediately stood up and stared vigilantly in the direction of the territory gate.
"What......"
【bite! Pet passive skill triggered! About 150 players are approaching rapidly 3 kilometers away from the territory, including no less than 30 mutant beasts! There are about 20 minutes left to reach the territory! 】
Player!
Still a large number of players!
Wen Ning had a serious expression. From the day she got the area map, she knew that her shelter could not be completely hidden.
But, 150 players! ?
It can be considered a small base.
How come you fell in love with her?
Her geographical location is so remote that even if she wants to expand her territory, she should expand from the nearest place outwards.
Wen Ning looked up at the endless mines in the distance. The mountains continued to extend, wrapping the northernmost part of the map. It seemed that this was the farthest northern part of the map.
The Territory of Light is not far from the foot of the Wasteland Mine, and this group of people is coming from the southwest.
Wen Ning opened the regional map and keenly discovered a base one hundred kilometers away from him.
Disappeared from the map.
"Gone...absorbed?"
She had some guess in her mind that the other party seemed to be coming directly for her.
Who is it? Can she find her territory in anonymity?
"Mira, inform the cat tribe that no one is allowed to go out today and must stay in the inn."
"001, enemy attack!"
After giving the two commands, Wen Ning asked Hu Zi to activate his active skill again.
【bite! The pet's active skill has been activated. You can use the active skill 2 times and the passive skill 2 times today.
With Hu Zi's active skill, Wen Ning checked the area map all the way to the southwest and finally found the invading team of players.
