Chapter 10 Building a Log Cabin
Thousands of years ago.
The Forgotten Swamp is not yet a swamp.
The dark forest in the distance is not called a dark forest either.
These areas were once ruled by the Elf Empire.
Especially the Forgotten Swamp is the core territory of the Elf Empire.
Wherever you fall, you should get up.
In addition, many areas of the Dark Continent have been occupied by evil and dark creatures. For example, the Dark Forest has now become the territory of evil races such as night elves and Cyclops.
In addition, in those areas, the demonic forces are also intricately entangled.
Demons can be seen even in the Western Sea and the Far North Ice Region.
Relatively speaking, Forgotten Swamp is safer.
Although there are still many evil and dark creatures living here, at least demons rarely appear... This is what Lao Shu told Lin Yi.
Therefore, it is very suitable to establish his base camp.
The strength of the demons is extremely terrifying.
The holy angels were defeated.
Lin Yi didn't want to be targeted by the demons before he had enough power.
…
"You can properly walk out of the square tonight."
As his strength increased, Lin Yi's courage also grew.
He said to the elves under his command: "You each form several teams to hunt the undead creatures that appear near the square. Remember to take turns to rest and recover the consumed magic power."
Night is a world of evil and dark creatures.
At night, a large number of undead will appear in the ruins, which is difficult to see during the day, at least in the ruins of the inner city.
When hunting Warcraft monsters during the day, you have to search everywhere.
As long as you make some noise at night, you can attract a large number of undead creatures.
As long as you are careful, you will definitely gain a lot.
"As you command, Your Majesty!"
The elves all bowed respectfully.
After dinner, they gathered into teams and walked into the darkness outside the square.
About forty elves remained.
This is what Lin Yi ordered.
Under his command, these elves began to build large-scale construction projects and wooden houses in the square.
The elves are helping too.
They use their meager magic power to help the elves at work.
During the day today, the elves collected a large amount of wood from the ruins, and it would not be a problem to build dozens of wooden houses at one time.
Tomorrow, more elves will join in the resource collection work.
There will be an endless supply of wood.
Lin Yi also asked the system if he could build a wooden house with the help of the system.
Similar to building the Tree of Life and the Ancient Tree of War.
Spend some energy crystals and the construction is completed in an instant.
This is very convenient.
However, the system gave a negative answer. It said that it only provided the construction and upgrade of [special territorial buildings]. Ordinary buildings such as wooden houses needed to be solved by the lords themselves.
There was no other way, so Lin Yi had no choice but to do it herself.
Fortunately, the elves under his command are all professionals with magical powers.
It is very convenient to use magic to cut, stack, and strengthen wood.
It didn't take long for wooden houses to appear one after another on the square.
The elves even carved the appearance of the wooden houses, carving out many elf-style patterns, making the neatly arranged wooden houses look more exquisite. In addition, the bricks and stones laid flat on the square were also removed by the elves, exposing the soil below.
Some elves asked Lin Yi for instructions. They hoped to plant some flowers and green grass around the wooden house to beautify the living environment... This request was naturally approved by Lin Yi, who also wanted the environment of his territory to be beautiful.
…
It's late at night.
In total, the elves built more than fifty wooden houses.
Each wooden house is divided into two floors, with three rooms on each floor. It is not a problem to squeeze in a dozen elves.
“Let’s build a log cabin like this for now.”
"Wait until we occupy the inner city, or even the entire ruins, before we consider planning and reconstruction."
His territory in the future will definitely not be like it is now.
All buildings must be refined and perfect.
Not only does he want to create a powerful territory, but he also wants to make his territory the most beautiful place in the entire Dark Continent. Even the weeds on the roadside must look good.
…
A new day has arrived.
The harvest of the elves during the night has also been tallied.
A total of more than 9,000 energy crystals were harvested, and it was roughly estimated that more than 20,000 undead creatures were killed.
The undead that appeared near the square were basically cleaned up by the elves.
However, this was only last night.
By tonight, new undead will appear in this area. As long as the evil and dark forces beneath the ruins are not eliminated, undead will continue to be born.
Even the old tree didn't know how many bones were buried under the ruins.
Among them are not only elves, but also intelligent creatures of other races.
Humans, dwarves, orcs, goblins, etc.
This is not only the capital of the Elf Empire, but also a very important battlefield for the coalition forces of all races to resist the invasion of demons and evil creatures.
Over the years, if the old tree hadn't been consuming its power to suppress the evil and dark power underground, more undead creatures would have been born, a hundred times more.
The more than 9,000 energy crystals harvested were used by Lin Yi to train elf swordsmen and elf archers as usual.
Nearly two hundred elf troops were obtained.
So far, the number of elven soldiers under his command has reached more than 500.
The progress of task one is half completed.
Lin Yi plans to upgrade the ancient war tree and unlock new arms after completing [Mission 1]. After all, upgrading the ancient war tree consumes a lot of energy crystals, which will delay the time for him to complete the task.
The reward for mission one is to unlock the [Magic Fountain], and he urgently needs this building.
The reason is simple.
The elven spring water condensed by the magic spring can quickly restore the magic power of elven troops.
Indirectly improve their hunting efficiency.
If there is an injured elf, you can also use the elf spring water to quickly treat the injury.
"If nothing else happens."
"Today's hunting harvest during the day is enough for me to gather a thousand elf soldiers!"
Compared with yesterday when there were only over a hundred elven soldiers out hunting, the number of elven soldiers today has increased fourfold, and the harvest will naturally be greater.
…
In the morning, after the elves left the territory in batches, Lin Yi was ready to start his new day's hunting work.
Before that, he gave birth to the elf of a new day.
So far, the number of elves in his territory has reached more than 1,600.
Looking at the little elves that were shining like stars all over the sky, Lin Yi couldn't help but feel proud.
As long as he trains all these elves, he will have an army of more than 2,000 elves, and he will soon be able to collect the ruins of the ancient city.
