Chapter 480: How difficult is it to build a branch city
In the Lord's Hall.
Fang Yuan was slightly startled when he heard the news.
At this moment, he was indeed confused.
"Cape City?"
"Where is that place?"
"There seems to be no such area around my territory."
"Why were you attacked out of nowhere?"
Full of doubts, Fang Yuan opened the battle report module on the lord's mark.
soon!
He found the territory where he was attacked and the location of the enemy.
“It’s actually the headquarters of Caiyun Alliance?”
"And this Cape City is actually the southernmost city of Gondor!"
Fang Yuan was greatly surprised and then checked the battle report of this battle.
View from the displayed message.
The legion he was attacked was a group of patrolling barbarians.
In order to attack the northern defense line, he chose to transfer Hogg who was stationed in the south back.
Previously, Babas was transferred back and formed a dragon knight with Fiona.
Only the barbarian priests and the dwarf king Solan who was recruited later remained at the Caiyun Alliance's station.
Not to mention that both heroes are orange heroes, their levels have not been improved.
All are only level one.
Even if they command the ninth-level barbarian and the ninth-level dwarf chariot legions respectively.
But the combat effectiveness is not strong either.
And that's why.
He chose to temporarily give up most of the territory, retaining only the legions that built branch cities and guarded the surrounding areas.
But I didn't expect it.
Even so, he was still attacked.
The enemy in this attack came from the south of Cape City.
A direct sneak attack on a patrolling barbarian guard.
All the barbarians were killed.
But fortunately, this place is relatively far from the address where I built the branch city.
And judging from the follow-up of the battle report.
The Cape City legion did not continue to go deep into the location where they built the branch city.
This made Fang Yuan quite confused.
He told Christian about it instead.
And after listening to Fang Yuan's story.
Christian said after a moment of silence.
"Your Excellency."
"Looks like a probing attack."
"The defense at the Caiyun League camp must be strengthened."
"The battle on the northern defense line is now decided."
"It will take some time to attack Harvest City."
"I think Hogg can be sent back to the south to assist in the defense."
"There is also Asis, who will take charge of the gryphon knights."
“Even if something happens to the south, we won’t be caught off guard.”
Fang Yuan nodded.
"It makes sense."
"Come here, order Hogg and Yasis to quickly lead the troops to the Caiyun League station in the south."
"As commanded."
After giving the order, Fang Yuan inspected the legions under the two heroes.
Assis also has 5,000 gryphon knights.
Fang Yuan sent all these griffin knights over.
Hogg's men had less than five hundred original blood forest giants left.
Fang Yuan opened the Bloodline Castle.
Replenished the number of forest giants to 3,000.
And after sending the two heroes to the south.
Fang Yuan began to think about it in his mind.
"The attack on Cape City, I wonder if there will be any conspiracy behind it."
"If it's just an ordinary attack, it's nothing."
"But if it is true as Christian said, this attack was a deliberate exploratory attack."
"Does that mean there will be larger-scale attacks in the future?"
"The power that Asis brings can only be defended for a while at most. When the number of enemies increases or the number of attacks becomes frequent."
"Then you will need to continue to mobilize troops to the south."
"And if at this time, I happen to be attacking Harvest City."
"Then we have to postpone the siege."
"Change your strength to defend the Caiyun Alliance Valley."
"There is only one way to avoid this situation."
"Build the city!"
"In the Caiyun League Valley in the south, a branch city will be built."
"There is a branch city to sit in the south."
"At that time, sending some legions to station will be enough to block the attack."
"And if you upgrade to level ten, you will also need to build a branch city."
"Now that the south is being attacked, it means that the time to build the city has come."
"Furthermore, after the war on the northern border defense line, I already have a lot of resources in my hands."
"Not only can it support all the materials needed to build a sub-city, it can also repel the tide of beasts caused by the construction of a sub-city."
Thinking of this, Fang Yuan has already made a decision in his heart.
"This branch of the city must be repaired."
He told Christian his plan.
After listening to Fang Yuan's plan.
Christian said after thinking for a moment.
"It does."
"With the branch city, the Lord no longer has to worry about the city building site being robbed."
"The legion stationed in the south has a branch city as a backing."
"You can attack with confidence and clean up the monsters around you."
"In turn, open up the passage between Caiyun League Valley and Zixiao League."
"The lord can also use the branch city to send caravans to trade with the Zixiao Alliance."
"Remote control of Zixiao League at the same time."
"On the side, it acts as a deterrent."
"Let them not dare to have second thoughts."
What Christian analyzed was exactly what Fang Yuan thought.
"You and I think alike."
"The war just stopped, take advantage of this opportunity!"
"Build the city!"
After Fang Yuan made up his mind, he took out the necessary items for building a branch city from the package.
"District construction drawings."
The golden blueprint, after building the branch city according to this blueprint.
In addition to having city walls, guard towers, and a main city.
There is also a chance to get a magic pattern exclusive to the branch city.
The quality of magic patterns is lowest in red and highest in gold.
In addition to this drawing, there are also building cards for the Hero Altar.
With these two items, the main body of the branch city is ready.
As for the defense of the branch cities in the future, it can be completely left to the main city.
However, after the branch city is established, there are corresponding building slots in the branch city, and buildings such as barracks can be built.
Fortunately, there are not many building spaces left in the main city.
In the future, some less important buildings can be completely prevented from going to the branch city.
In addition, after building hero altars in separate cities, there will also be corresponding positions for recruiting heroes.
The number of heroes you can recruit yourself can be increased again.
All kinds of things come to mind.
Fang Yuan no longer hesitated and directly selected the address of Caiyun Alliance's headquarters.
This area where the city was built was formerly the core of the Caiyun Alliance.
Later it was occupied by the undead.
The necropolis of the dead is built here.
After occupying it yourself.
Christian brought the fragments of holy light to purify the air of death here.
After the holy light fragments were purified, they not only expelled the spirit of death.
It actually has the same effect as the base magic crystal.
The gold level of this area is maintained.
So now Fang Yuan benefits from this effect and can directly build a branch city on it.
"Ding, do you choose to build a branch city in a place purified by the Holy Light?"
"Yes."
"Ding, do you want to use the golden branch city construction drawings to build the branch city? The construction cost of the golden branch city is 10 billion gold coins and resources, and the construction time is 100 years."
"Hiss~"
After hearing the price and time required to build the Golden Branch.
Fang Yuan took a breath of cold air.
This time, Fang Yuan did not make his own choice.
“Why is it so expensive?”
He wiped his eyes unconfidently.
After confirming that the consumption was correct, Fang Yuan still couldn't believe the fact.
“The price and time are a bit outrageous.”
“I don’t know if anyone else has built a golden branch city before me.”
With this in mind.
Fang Yuan opened the Lord's Seal, logged into the Lord's Forum, and searched for information on building a golden branch city.
And soon, an eye-catching post on the Lord's Mark attracted Fang Yuan's attention.
This post was posted more than ten years ago.
The lord who posted the message is shown to be dead.
And the name of the post is.
"A great practice, recording my construction of the golden branch city from scratch."
Fang Yuan clicked on the post to check and found that it contained detailed records of how this lord built the golden branch city step by step.
From the beginning of the post, the lord told how he unexpectedly received a golden branch city drawing as a reward from a secret realm.
By this time, he had reached level nine, and then decided to build a branch city.
At that time, the official forces of various countries withdrew from exploration, and this lord was quite powerful.
Got an official compensation.
Later, after discussing with his own alliance, and with the support of the entire alliance, he began to build the golden branch city.
Because of the golden blueprint, there were basically no difficulties at the beginning.
However, when it came time to actually build it, the burden of 10 billion resources and gold coins still put a lot of pressure on their alliance.
In the post, he launched a crowdfunding campaign.
After borrowing and lending, plus the support of the entire alliance.
The funding problem was finally solved.
After that, he spent another month using this method to put together the 100-year mobilization order.
Building in the end is the easiest.
Resources are in place and accelerator cards are in place.
Construction is accomplished in one go.
There are a lot of words of emotion and gratitude mixed in between.
Fang Yuan jumped over and pulled it down directly. After the construction was completed, he started to randomize the magic patterns.
This time.
Fang Yuan cursed angrily.
"MD, this post has actually started charging."
"Everyone is dead, who will pay for what I paid?"
As a last resort, Fang Yuan paid.
Fortunately, the price is not expensive, only 1,000 gold coins.
Then I saw that the other party was unlucky and randomly received a purple magic pattern.
For most lords, the cost of building a city worth 10 billion is just to win the chance of getting a golden magic pattern.
But the other party failed.
Randomly finding a purple magic pattern almost means a loss of tens of billions.
However, the opponent is already in a difficult position and can only continue to build.
At this point, it is almost the upgrade of subsequent sub-cities.
The conditions for upgrading branch cities are similar to those of the main city.
Basically, as long as the conditions of the main city are met, the branch city can be promoted directly.
But just after the construction was completed, it was in the process of being upgraded.
The beast tide broke out.
Because it is a golden branch city, the beast tide that breaks out is very strong.
There were as many as three mist lords attacking him, and there were golden monster legions in the middle.
At the same time, the beast tide is also a large beast tide.
This level of beast tide has previously required the state to deal with it.
It's simply not something they can handle as a minor league team.
So behind the post, Fang Yuan saw the message asking for help.
"Friends, I need your help. This is the first great attempt of mankind on Blue Star."
"This golden branch city cannot fail like this."
"Please support me, my branch city address is in the Broken Tooth Mountains."
"There are fire dragons everywhere here."
"I need your help to help me get through this."
Unfortunately, this is no longer the early stage of exploration.
No one is willing to risk their life to help a stranger in another country.
Humanity is no longer a community.
final.
Ten days after the construction of the branch city.
This golden branch city was captured by the beast tide.
And it starts from this time.
No longer would any lord or alliance try to build a golden branch city.
Because not only is it uneconomical.
Moreover, the probability of random golden magic patterns is too low. No one and no alliance is willing to bet on this probability with tens of billions of resources.
not to mention.
After the construction of subsequent sub-cities.
The beast tide that besieged the branch city was not an ordinary beast tide, but a large beast tide.
This level of beast tide is almost impossible for ordinary lords to resist.
It will only happen if the big leagues work together.
Moreover, in the beast tide, the golden army of the Mist Lord will appear.
This kind of siege power is difficult to defend even for a major alliance.
Moreover, after construction, a large amount of resources will be needed to quickly upgrade the branch city to the highest level.
otherwise.
Once the beast tide strikes, the low-level city walls are almost like paper in front of the violent monsters.
This is also the reason.
All subsequent lords gave up building the golden branch city.
And at this moment.
Fang Yuan saw this.
There was a trace of hesitation in his eyes.
It’s not that he’s afraid of the beast tide.
Instead, he made a calculation in his mind.
If you build a branch city now.
Then the resources in hand are not enough to support the upgrade of the branch city to level nine.
And based on the location of the branch city.
That must be the siege by monsters in the West Coast Mountains.
Although Lilith still has a forbidden spell, once it is released.
You will have to wait a long time next time.
He also has plans to attack Harvest City in the future.
Therefore, if it is used to divide the city, then the attack on Harvest City and the elimination of the evil god's forces must be pushed back.
And within this time, once the other party becomes powerful.
That’s it~
For a moment, Fang Yuan fell into a dilemma.
After thinking hard and finding no solution.
Fang Yuan told Christian his troubles.
After hearing this, she remained silent for a while and then said.
"Then Lord, let's improve our strength first."
"Your Excellency, you can do some high-level tasks first, or explore the secret realm."
"Maybe you can get some good results from it."
"If you can get a forbidden curse scroll, all problems will be solved."
Fang Yuan also thought of this, but he said.
"Can the enemy in the south attack at this time?"
Christian clapped his hands.
"Then concentrate your strength and destroy them first."
"With the Lord's current strength, with all the power concentrated in one place, there is almost no enemy who can be your opponent."
Fang Yuan nodded.
"That's all."
"Just in time, we can take advantage of this period of time to wait for the production of magic crystal cannons on the northern defense line."
"As long as there are two hundred magic crystal cannons, I am confident that I can defend the branch city even without the need for forbidden spells."
Then Fang Yuan chose to temporarily give up building the branch city and improve his strength first.
He opened the package and began to look for usable secret realm items inside.
After a while.
Fang Yuan took out an abyss fragment.
"The fragments are smaller in time and easier to explore."
"Just take Brainy with you and go explore the abyss."
"First, capture a demon to be Brainy's slave."
"Secondly, let's look for clues to the wonders of the abyss."
After thinking about this, Fang Yuan said to Christian beside him.
"I am ready to explore the secret realm of the abyss."
"Christian, go and inform Brainy to return with the Demon Knight."
"In addition, let Lilith return to the main city to take charge of the territory's defense, and Helen will replace her to take charge of the northern defense line."
"In addition, you go to Meg and bring some paladins. I will now produce some war priests and holy light priests."
"In addition, find Fiona and ask her to bring all the Dragonhawk Knights."
"I will be escorted by you to explore the secret realm of abyss fragments."
Christian replied with fists in his hands.
"As you command!" (End of this chapter)
