Chapter 512 Torch Mountain


Chapter 512 Torch Mountain

At this time, Dorothia could already detect that the plane collision was quietly taking place, and it belonged to the special existence of the original world.

She knew very well that the player group was spread across all planes, and their behavior patterns were extremely speculative - whoever had the upper hand would turn to whom. Now, players are collectively involved in this counterattack against the undead, and even the players groups in Scorched Earth City who are closely related to her have joined the battle. This means that the undead in the endless seas will face an unprecedented and huge war.

Dorothia waved his hand and signaled all the vampires in the camp to retreat. She looked at Torch Island outside, frowned and said reluctantly: "The terrain of Torch Island is not dangerous and lacks a natural defensive barrier. Faced with such a large-scale attack, do I need to formulate a retreat plan in advance?"

After climbing to Torch Island, Helot had roughly inspected the island's defense system. He had to admit that Dorothia did have unique features in military command. For this island that lacks depth, she did not arrange a large number of low-level undeads like the usual war of undeads. On the contrary, among the defenders on Torch Island, the proportion of high-level undead and hero-level undead is very high. The island is full of various magic towers, which can provide effective magic support to the sea and in the air.

Large areas of skeleton mudflats are laid in the shallow sea area around the island, where countless spell traps and lurking undead are hidden. The water offshore is polluted by the energy of death, and all living things are extinct. In the further waters, ghosts patrol 24/7 to ensure that any enemy movements can be detected in time.

It can be said that apart from the infiltration of small elite troops, it is almost impossible for conventional troops to approach Torch Island without being discovered.

Even in the face of large-scale attacks, Torch Island can effectively resist through a stepped defense system. If the enemy wants to land successfully, it must pay an extremely painful price.

In addition, while going up the mountain, Helot also noticed that Dorothia's army was undergoing spell transformation on Torch Mountain. Once the transformation is completed, the mountain will become a powerful magic cannon, becoming the ultimate weapon of this undead army.

Dorothia invested a lot of resources and energy into the island, and even slowed down its encroachment plan for other islands. If he chose to retreat now, even Helot felt a little reluctant.

"The retreat plan can be formulated, but if it is possible to keep it, we should try our best to keep it." Herot pondered for a moment, then asked, "How much is the production of ice-burning steel now?"

Ice-burning steel is the most precious resource of Torch Island and the greatest value of this island.

"Come with me..." Dorothia brought Helot to the corner of the camp, where there were more than ten huge iron boxes, each box with a capacity of one cubic meter. She opened one of the boxes, neatly placed snow-white metal bricks. Dorothia explained: "These are all refined ice-burning steel, and the current output is that a box can be mined in a week."

Herot reached out to pick up a piece of ice-burning steel and found it was much lighter than he thought.

The metal surface was cold, as if holding a piece of ice, but at the same time, a burning sensation came from a faint feeling. The ice element and the fire element form a strange coexistence state in this piece of metal, so that its rigidity and toughness can be easily changed. This feature allows ice-burning steel to not only give armored magical defense with dual attributes of ice and fire, but also develop more amazing attributes through further refining and magical granting.

Herot couldn't help but imagine that if the reverse attribute coexistence characteristics of ice-burning steel could be used, the coexistence of extreme opposition elements such as life and death, sacred and depravity, nature and destruction might be achieved. Thinking of this, the value of Torch Island in his heart has been raised to a higher level.

"Can you increase the production?" Helot asked.

Dorothia had no choice but to spread his hands: "The raw ore of ice-burning steel is mixed in ordinary iron ore, and it is difficult for low-intelligent undead miners to accurately distinguish which raw ore are ice-burning steel. Only aboriginal creatures in endless seas can effectively sort. If you want to increase the yield, you must catch more aboriginal creatures to work. But the current problem is that the death rate of these creatures far exceeds the speed of our replenishment."

At this moment, the sound of supervisors whipping the miners came from the direction of the mine.

Herot frowned and said, "I think you should find a way to reduce the death rate of these creatures."

Dorothia sighed: "Of course I understand this truth, but our undead know nothing about the survival needs of the creatures here. The aboriginal creatures on this plane are more fragile than blood slaves, and they seem to die with a slight touch. Is there any way you can?"

Heluo nodded: "Let's go to your mine first."

The mine is located below the Skeleton Behemoth Camp, and Helot follows Dorothia all the way. The undead soldiers we met along the way saluted them respectfully, while the indigenous miners were so scared that they dared not look up, and their hearts were full of doubts: Why is a human being so respected by the undead, even close to the terrifying vampire queen?

The indigenous creatures in the endless seas are divided into land people, island people and sea people.

Lu Min and the islander have similar appearance to ordinary humans. They have tall figures, narrow cheeks, and three-dimensional facial features. Lu Min's skin is beige and the islander's skin is slightly brown. Among them, the outstanding appearance is based on human aesthetics and is a beauty with exotic characteristics.

The sea people live in the sea, have taller figures, fish fins on their backs, webbed palms and soles of their feet, and gills behind their ears, but they can also breathe with their lungs. They are amphibious creatures.

Helot did not enter the depths of the mine, but just walked around the periphery and discovered many problems.

"Is the mortality rate of seafarers very high?" Helot asked.

Dorothia was a little surprised. Thinking of Helot's arrival, he made such an accurate judgment: "How did you find out?"

Helot sighed. She knew that this was a blind spot for the undead's knowledge and explained: "Sea people live below sea level most of the time. Even if they climb onto land, they will not be far away from the sea. But here is a mountain with an altitude of 3,000 to 4,000 meters. Even if the sea people do nothing, their bodies have already been under great load. You also have to let them carry out high-intensity mining work. How could they not die in large quantities?"

Dorothia suddenly realized and looked at the weak sea miners. They were shaking, as if they were tortured to death at any time: "What should I do? You can't let them stop mining, right?"

Helot, who is familiar with Dorothia's ability to govern, shook his head: "Why do they need to mining themselves? Their job is to sort out the ice-burning steel ore from the iron ore. You can let the skeletons enter the mine to mine, and then transport the ore to the bottom of the mountain to sort these aboriginal creatures. This will not only reduce their mortality rate, but also speed up the sorting speed of the ice-burning steel ore."

Dorothia's eyes lit up: "Yes! Why didn't I expect this? Fortunately, you are here... I will transfer these aboriginal creatures to the bottom of the mountain and send more skeletons to mining. In the past, I was worried that landslide would kill the living miners, so I did not allow the skeletons to use the powerful explosion magic. Now that they do not need to mine in person, the skeletons can use the explosion magic to blow the ore at will."

Herot observed a moment of silence for the skeleton miners, and then pointed out another problem: "You have another serious problem here." He took Dorothia to the cafeteria in the mining area, pointed to the black and brown paste boiled in the big pot and said, "Is this powder ground with bakery?"

Dorothia nodded: "Yes. Eating a living creature is a troublesome. I transplanted the bakery and used magic to generate it. The yield was very large, enough for all living creature miners to eat."

Herot had no choice but to say: "Her Majesty, the creatures in the endless seas are not the blood slaves of the land of death. Even if they are blood slaves, if you let them eat this kind of thing to mine, they will not live long." Dorothia was a little confused: "Then what should they eat?"

"Fish, there are a lot of fish in the sea. You can let the undead go fishing, and then send ships to land or other places to buy food. At the same time, release it as a mission. As long as the price is right, there will definitely be players and navigators willing to transport food for you."

Even though Dorothia couldn't understand everything, she trusted Helot: "Okay, just do what you said. Are there any other things that need improvement?"

Herot looked around and found that the mining area was almost everywhere: "Sanitation, drinking water, work coordination and dispatch... I think you need a professional team to manage these living miners."

"I'll leave this mining area to you." Dorothia naturally threw this heavy burden to Helot, as if the mining area was not his own: "We'll leave the war to me according to the previous division of labor, and you will take care of everything else!"

Herot had to take over such a difficult stall just now when he came to the island. He would have to do it even if he didn't want to.

Dorothia should let her do what she is good at.

"Okay..." Helot took a deep breath, quickly sorted out his thoughts, and responded: "You go and command the army to prepare for war, and leave the rest to me."

Dorothia nodded with satisfaction, reached out and patted Helot on the shoulder, with a bad smile on his face: "It's comfortable to work with you! I'll leave the things to you, I'll be relieved!"

After saying that, Dorothia turned around and left, his steps were brisk, as if he had gotten rid of a problem.

The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!

Helot stood there, watching her back gradually drift away, then turned around to face the mine with many problems in front of him, sighing secretly.

"Who is responsible for managing this mine?" Herot raised his voice.

Soon, a vampire rushed over and saluted him respectfully, with a hint of nervousness in her tone: "Your Majesty Broken Bone, I was assigned by Her Majesty the Queen to be responsible for the management of this mine."

Helot nodded slightly, glanced at the mines, and immediately issued an order: "Stop work now and escort all living miners to the bottom of the mountain. Build a skeleton residence for them, send the undead to catch some fish, make sure they eat and drink enough, and have a good rest."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The vampire responded immediately, without any resistance to Helot's orders.

Herot continued to instruct: "In addition, mobilize a group of skeleton miners to replace the living miners to enter the mine to mine. Regardless of losses, speed up the mining speed." He paused, afraid that the vampires would not understand what they meant, so he lowered his voice, with a hint of urgency in his tone: "We may retreat from Torch Island to the Land of Death at any time, and we must mine as much ice-burning steel and iron as possible. Do you understand what I mean?"

The vampire bowed his head, his voice low and firm: "I understand, Your Majesty. Regardless of the loss of the skeleton miner, he will work hard to mine ore to ensure that he can obtain the most resources in the shortest time."

Herot nodded with satisfaction and then asked, "Where is the entrance to the torch cannon?"

The vampire quickly replied: "Just deep in the mine, there is a tunnel that leads directly to the center of the mountain. The Azure Mages are responsible for the design and construction of the torch cannon."

Herot looked at the entrance of the mine and said, "Okay, go and do what I have explained. I'll check the construction progress of the torch cannon."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The vampire responded respectfully, then turned around and called another vampire warrior, and ordered: "You guide your Majesty, and be sure to ensure your Majesty's safety."

The vampire warrior immediately stepped forward and saluted respectfully to Helot: "Your Majesty, please follow me."

Herot didn't say much, but just said "um" lightly, and followed the lead vampire warrior and walked into the dark mine cave. The light in the cave was dim, the air was filled with the smell of ore and soil, and the surrounding walls were faintly glittering ore.

The order was also sent to the mine cave.

The creatures mining inside lined up and walked out under the escort of the undead supervisor. What surprised them was that the undead supervisors seemed very polite to them, without loud roaring or whipping. Even if you walk slowly, you are just urged.

Corresponding to the living miners leaving the mine, a large number of skeleton miners were driven into the mine, and there were also many undead mages entering the mine together. They were talking about the magic they wanted to set up while walking, and even the small earthquake spells were in their discussion.

After leaving the mine, I went down the mountain.

These newly-launched creature miners finally knew what was going on from their companions outside.

A human came to the mine, accompanied by Queen Dorothia herself. All the undead here are extremely respectful to that human being. Even if Queen Dorothia leaves and leaves him alone, the undead still dare not act presumptuously in front of him.

Even the vampire supervisor who sucked blood to death casually was as humble as a dog who saw his owner in front of that human being.

The living miners couldn't help but wonder: Who is that human? What kind of changes will it bring to our destiny?

The living miners were escorted down the mountain by the undead, and next to them were the skeleton miners going up the mountain.
