Chapter 268 Xu Jiacheng Obtains the Lord's Order
After hearing what Wen Ning said, Ah Zi tried to communicate with these strange seeds.
Wen Ning looked at Ah Zi’s little face which had turned red. He opened his eyes with a hint of grievance in them.
"Master, I can't communicate with these seeds."
Wen Ning didn't have high hopes to begin with, so he wasn't surprised to hear that.
Instead, he comforted Ah Zi: "It's okay, maybe these seeds haven't sprouted yet."
Ah Zi nodded, and the feeling of frustration in her heart disappeared.
There was nothing to do on the farm, so Wen Ning asked Hu Zi to protect A Zi.
He rode the Centaur towards Mira.
It was noon, around 11 o'clock.
Mira is busy upgrading the arrow tower.
Upgrading and renovating is a bit troublesome because already built buildings can only be upgraded by adding materials one by one.
For example, Wen Ning's farm can be upgraded by adding upgrading materials at the beginning without any construction, and can be built to level 4 at one time. Of course, it will take more time.
When Wen Ning arrived, Mira was upgrading the last arrow tower. In clockwise order, this arrow tower was the last one.
There are five minutes left to upgrade the first arrow tower.
The countdown ended and a white light flashed.
The arrow tower in front of Wen Ning instantly turned into stone.
Because Mira used only granite synthesized by Wen Ning, the color of the arrow tower turned white as the countdown ended.
A series of changes took place within the Territory of Light.
One arrow tower after another emitted white light and then turned into granite.
The people in the territory seemed to have discovered a new world. A group of small cat-like orcs exclaimed every time an arrow tower turned into stone.
then.
“Swish!”
“Wow~~~~”
“Swish!”
“Wow~~~~”
The sounds of change and exclamations came one after another.
It attracted the busy adults to stop and look.
The stone arrow tower looks much stronger than the wooden one, and the number of crossbow arrows that each arrow tower can carry is directly increased by one third.
In addition, stone arrow towers can also carry thermal weapons.
"Hot weapons?"
As Wen Ning listened to the explanation, he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have forgotten an important trump card.
That is——
Wen Ning waved his hand and pulled out a mechanical electromagnetic turret from his backpack.
Wen Ning was almost crying.
This turret was originally installed outside his own shelter, but when he established the territory, Wen Ning was afraid that the merchants in the territory would be accidentally injured, so he put it away.
Once you take this hand, just forget about it.
"How could I forget you!"
Wen Ning slapped his forehead hard, but luckily he remembered.
Wen Ning placed the mechanical electromagnetic turret in front of Mira, and Mira's starry eyes lit up instantly.
"Lord! This is good stuff!"
The mechanical turret has infrared detection capability and can fire bullets and infrared lasers simultaneously. Accuracy means reduced ammunition consumption.
Moreover, this turret has a critical hit rate and is equipped with a confirmation process before firing.
What Wen Ning is not sure about now is whether this turret placed in the territory can automatically identify the people living there.
[System prompt: The subjects can be regarded as members of the shelter and can obtain damage immunity. 】
Wen Ning couldn't help but clap his hands. This solved the big problem.
Since an arrow tower can be equipped with a thermal weapon, it seems that the mechanical electromagnetic turret is of course the first choice.
With Mira's technology, the four existing turrets were installed.
"Lord, the range of the turret is 800 meters."
Unable to suppress the satisfaction in his heart, Wen Ning watched as the infrared rays from the turret swept towards the little cat-like orcs who were joining in the fun under the arrow tower.
The naive little orc didn't know what was going on and was laughing at the red spots on his companion's body.
Wen Ning sucked in a breath of cold air. Although he believed that the artillery would not fire without reason, it was still terrifying to suddenly see the little orc being targeted by the artillery.
"Mira, find a way to make the external line invisible to the people in the territory."
"Lord, Mira can't do this, but Mira can modify the status of the turret and set it to three states."
"Relax: turn off the infrared and patrol along the prescribed route."
"Alert: Turn on infrared, patrol freely, and aim at suspicious objects, but you need to obtain permission to fire."
"Attack mode: free patrol, free firing."
After hearing this, Wen Ning decisively asked Mira to revise it.
After the modification was completed, Wen Ning calculated the time and walked towards the city gate.
"You can modify the remaining mechanical turrets after I make them. Now let's go to the city gate. The new territory merchants should be refreshed."
Mira nodded obediently.
As Wen Ning walked, he recalled the last time a territory merchant came. It was on February 12. At that time, Wen Ning was busy defending against the attacks of mutant beasts, so he let the territory merchant go.
As a result, the territory merchant left the territory after staying in the territory for less than half a day.
This time the territory merchants arrived at the right time and the disaster ended.
The construction of Wen Ning's territory is in full swing, and anyone who sees it will feel that it has great potential. So, it would be great if we could attract him to stay there when the time comes.
[The territory merchant has been refreshed, please go to the gate to receive him. 】
Wen Ning and Mira just walked to the gate of the territory when a flash of white appeared in their sight.
It is small in stature, with a pair of drooping furry ears.
His wet eyes looked around, as if marveling at the great changes here.
When Wen Ning saw the familiar figure, he immediately exclaimed in surprise.
"Shirayuki!?"
.......
........
In Area Q12, Xu Jiacheng was walking in the territory with a high-spirited look on his face.
The players passing by were all respectful and shouted to him when they saw him.
"Hello, Lord!"
"My Lord!"
"My Lord is really amazing. He snatched this Lord's Order from the siege of tens of thousands of people!"
Xu Jiacheng enjoyed the flattery.
He obviously wanted to be the lord more than being the base director.
After all, there are less than 80 territories left in the wasteland world so far.
Some lord orders are still under dispute.
A base can be established as long as there are many people, and the lord is the one in power recognized by the system.
He now has the same status as a lord like Jack, and he doesn't have to be servile in front of Jack all the time.
He got this lord's order by luck and through some means.
This lord's order is a combat-type territory that has been upgraded to level 3. Its original area is 1,000 square meters, which doubles to 4,000 square meters after the upgrade.
It can be considered a relatively large territory.
But there are thousands of players in the official base, and there is no room for all of them.
Xu Jiacheng used his eloquence to get the players to move the shelter to the outskirts of the territory.
In the name of the center, of course, important buildings of the territory should be placed, and the territory surrounded by the players' refuges.
When the territory is upgraded and expanded outward, the shelters will naturally be included.
Therefore, the official base is divided into classes, with the core personnel close to the territory, while those on the periphery are marginal players or mobile players.
They are players who originally run bases. If they disagree, they will quit the base or run to another base to live.
So it was natural that he was placed at the outermost edge.
