Chapter 149 Spirit Consultation
The fortifications around the fortress town are being rapidly rebuilt.
Zhang Weidong is mainly responsible for speaking out, while Xiao Jian is mainly responsible for construction.
As for the materials...most of them are sourced locally.
The walls around the town that had withstood the test of countless wars were basically demolished by Xiao Jian, and their materials were refilled into new defense facilities.
The iron horses that Xiao Jian threw out before were not wasted. The recyclable parts were basically put back into blank resource cards, and a small part were also pinched into new defense facilities.
With the continuous cooperation between the two, the new generation defense system of Fortress Town has taken on a completely new look.
With the Peashooter as the new basic output unit, the current defense system has completely abandoned the traditional model of layer-by-layer sniper differentiation and relying on high walls for final defense.
Instead, there were carefully designed trenches and solid bunkers, which intertwined into a dense fire network and built an impregnable barrier for the fortress town.
This tactical layout, except for the lack of barbed wire, is almost identical to the tactics used during World War I.
As the designer of this defense system, Zhang Weidong confidently stated that as long as he did not encounter a particularly powerful or abnormal level of monster, ordinary zombies would die as many as they came.
Xiao Jian, as a non-professional, could only believe Zhang Weidong's assurance that he would pat his chest.
After the carnival last night, the soldiers in the fortress town were all drunk, so many people got up very late.
When most of the soldiers woke up from their deep sleep and walked out of the house rubbing their hazy eyes, they were completely shocked by the sight before them.
The entire fortress town seemed to have experienced an earth-shaking change while they were sleeping.
The once majestic city wall disappeared without a trace, replaced by a broad field of vision and the looming mist in the distance.
In the South Square, a solemn and solemn monument rises from the ground. The monument is so simple that there is no pattern or decoration at all.
What shocked the soldiers the most was the center of the fortress town...
There, a tall tower is slowly rising at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Unlike the tower in Xiao Jian's courtyard, the tall tower he built for Fortress Town has stairs inside.
The entire tower is 20 meters tall, almost 6 stories high, and the top of the tower is an open terrace.
Xiao Jian deliberately left 24 shooting holes on the edge of the open air. Behind each shooting hole, he placed a flower pot and planted a pea sniper in it.
"This time...even if there is another divine beast, I can kill it!" Zhang Weidong said.
"Oh, the only mythical beast around here is the tiger, right? Are you really sure about it?" Xiao Jian didn't believe it.
"Of course! I was careless before..." Zhang Weidong was full of confidence.
"Oh~" Xiao Jian looked at Zhang Weidong's waist thoughtfully.
"...Really, I'm really careless." Zhang Weidong suddenly felt guilty.
"It doesn't matter, I'll charge you for the treatment next time." Xiao Jian said calmly.
"Tsk, stingy." Zhang Weidong curled his lips.
"That leaf is equivalent to an awakened person." Xiao Jian said lightly.
The leaf that saved Zhang Weidong is equivalent to a characteristic card.
The person with characteristics is the awakened person, so a characteristic card is equivalent to an awakened person.
Therefore, golden blade = characteristic card = awakener, this is definitely no problem.
"Really!?" Zhang Weidong's face darkened.
"Of course... do you think bringing back the dead is a simple matter?" Xiao Jian said seriously.
Although for him, it was just a matter of killing a few more spirits... But the problem was that he had no place to find so many spirits, so this resource was still relatively scarce.
Zhang Weidong looked at Xiao Jian's face for a long time before reluctantly confirming that the other party was not lying...
Then he fell silent.
"...What a crime."
Zhang Weidong said.
"Don't thank me too much. Just work hard for me from now on." Xiao Jian took the opportunity to tell him, "As long as you work hard, you will definitely have a bright future... in the future."
Xiao Jian almost said "house, car, money, girl"... After all, it was so easy to talk about. His boss used to say this often.
Of course, in the end, everything the boss said came true.
After so many years in Xiao Jian's job, his boss has started to buy his third house. He also replaces his car every two years, which requires at least 1,000 in cash. Girls replace their cars even more frequently.
"Of course!" Zhang Weidong slapped his chest, "But although our fortress is safe, the rear is still a little unstable..."
"Although the spirits and mythical beasts around us have escaped, N5001 is gone. These monsters should be blocked in our branch line, so we must strengthen defense in the rear, otherwise the output of various materials will be affected. It affects... do you think?"
This set of reverse PUA was so skillful that Xiao Jian could not say anything except giving a thumbs up.
but……
"...Branch line?"
Xiao Jian raised his eyebrows. This was the first time he heard this statement.
"It's a long story..."
Zhang Weidong explained in detail how they made their inferences, as well as a lot of assumptions and unproven principles put forward by technicians.
Finally, Xiao Jian’s doubts were resolved with a very vivid metaphor:
“Most of the fragments of the world are like a bunch of grapes, made up of several or even more small fragments, large and small.”
"The 'grape vine' connected to this bunch of 'grapes' is called a branch line by technicians."
"They believe that 'grapes' within the same 'branch' can communicate with each other and connect to each other... but beyond this range, even if they know the other party's fragment number, they cannot simply connect through conventional means."
"In other words, N5001, our N7183 and a bunch of other world fragments are all on the same 'branch'. Now that N5001 has disappeared, of course the 'grape vine' connected to it no longer exists."
"That is to say...the spirits that ran in can't escape and can only fight with us in our bunch of grapes."
After Zhang Weidong explained, Xiao Jian suddenly remembered something else.
He had previously tried to use the jade "key" to open the channel to N7183, but he had not succeeded.
Because of his relationship with the Faith Channel, he didn't think much about it at the time...
But now it seems that maybe his small courtyard has broken away from the "bunch of grapes" where N7183 is located, and has entered a deeper "branch".
This reminded Xiao Jian of the "line drawing" behavior on the boundary wall.
Obviously, the spirit side has more information about this type of information... It seems that they will have to find time to call Morse out for further interrogation.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Weidong asked.
"I wanted to open the channel of N7183 before but failed..." Xiao Jian replied.
"..."
Zhang Weidong suddenly fell silent when he heard this, and his expression gradually became serious.
"What?" Xiao Jian asked strangely.
"You may be getting farther and farther away from us..." Zhang Weidong said.
"So what?" Xiao Jian didn't think it was a big deal, "I still have a faith channel!"
"...Anyway, you have to prepare in advance just in case...I have never heard of any record of communication between different branches. Even when N5001 was still there, there was no such thing."
Having said this, Zhang Weidong paused for a moment and said, "So... we really have to prepare in advance."
"..."
Xiao Jian also frowned when he heard this.
His investment in N7183 is not small. In addition to the Sunflower Ranch with a sunshine value of more than 500,000 per day, there are so many plant servants...
If the connection is suddenly disconnected, it will really be too late to cry.
"Wait a moment, I'll go consult..." Xiao Jian said.
"Consultation? Who to consult?" Zhang Weidong looked puzzled, "We only have guesses but no research on things like belief channels..."
"...I know, what I want to ask is the 'friend' on the spirit side."
After saying that, Xiao Jian's clone closed his eyes, and in the small courtyard far away from N7183, Xiao Jian's main body opened his eyes.
Although he had long wanted to interrogate Mors and extract more information about the spirits... But he had not been so urgent before. Xiao Jian was still planning to finish counting the gains from the previous battle.
But now that there is a more urgent situation, the cross-examination of Morse has to be put on the agenda.
The cage built during the previous interrogation of the information obtained by Morse had been crushed and disappeared by Oriteo's tentacles due to its relatively forward position.
Now Xiaojian has no choice but to build a new cage... But this time, because of the [Sniper Re-Reception], Xiao Jian doesn't have to scare her with so many big words.
Just by aiming the [Sniper Cannon] on the tower at this cage, you will be confident enough to easily suppress her.
Xiao Jian pulled out the "character card" from the bottom of the monster card, then threw it into the center of the cage and chose to summon it.
"Bang..."
The card expanded rapidly, and the image on the card gradually became larger and expanded, and soon changed from a 2D pattern to a 3D shadow...
Then, in the hazy mist, the shadow turned into reality.
Morse's white bare feet stepped on solid ground.
"..."
The two looked at each other.
Morse quickly looked away, lowered his head slightly and said, "See my king."
"Um……"
Xiao Jian also quickly looked away... In this situation, he was easily distracted and could not help but secretly make miscalculations.
"Don't move here." Xiao Jian turned around and returned to the old house. He found an old but clean bed sheet from the cabinet and walked out.
When he came out, Morse was still standing obediently, even his posture had not changed.
Xiao Jian thought for a moment, then casually made a chair for her in the cage, and then threw the sheets on her along the gaps in the cage.
"Sit down and cover yourself a little... I have something to ask you."
"Yes, my king." Morse picked up the bed sheet, shook it out and folded it in half, then tugged it on the left and right sides of the body, and finally left two corners to meet at the waist...
Tie the two corners of the bed sheet into a beautiful bow around your waist. It looks like a tight but not revealing dress. It is simple yet elegant!
Is this still my sheet?
Xiao Jian suddenly fell into doubt...
And what’s up with Morse’s aesthetics?
Obviously only the calf and collarbone are exposed, but why does it look more eye-catching than before! ?
