Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

Now he has directly adjusted his original land enclosure plan.

When he first obtained [Enclosurer's Flag (Orange)], Zong Shen originally planned to include [Poison Mist Swamp], [Azshara Mine], and [Gem Mine] into the enclosure.

Among these three areas, [Poison Mist Swamp] and [Azshara Mine] are almost sixty or seventy kilometers away from the territory, which can be regarded as "close at hand".

Only the gem mine is relatively far away, about 800 kilometers away, and it would take more than an hour to reach it at full speed while riding Yingjiang.

Considering that [Enclosurer's Flag (orange)] only has three enclosure quotas, Zong Shen finally eliminated [Poison Mist Swamp].

The reason is also very simple. The economic potential of [Poison Mist Swamp] is far inferior to [Azshara Mine] and [Gem Mine]. Poison Swamp is more suitable for the development of aquaculture, such as those plump eight-bearded catfish.

It's far behind compared to the two mines.

Do you know what "having a mine at home" means?

Zong Shen is like this and his family has a mine!

[Azshara Mine] is not far from the territory, but the economic benefits of holding it are high!

It is no exaggeration to say that during these days, it was the output of the mine that was able to maintain the rapid construction of the territory.

Without these mineral resources being exchanged for other required resources through the [market], the scale of his territory would never be as large as it is now.

As for the [Gem Mine], although it has not been excavated yet.

But Zong Shen could figure out its potential even with his toes.

Most of the many gems he got from the griffin's nest were just brought back from the periphery of the [Gem Mine] by the griffins when they had nothing to do.

According to the information given in the guide, it is a valley with medium reserves and has not yet been mined on a large scale. It is definitely a virgin land of wealth!

And griffins are not kobolds. They don't know how to mine at all. They can only dig holes on the surface.

So that gem mine is most likely a "Gem Valley".

During this time, he often asked about the situation in the strategy module to ensure that no one would get there first.

In fact, the indigenous people also have a great demand for ores and gemstones.

If the [Azshara Mine] here was not adjacent to the [Burial Ground] and had a large number of crypt creatures and undead living there, Baron Bezos would have developed it long ago.

Fortunately, the Endless Continent is vast and rich in resources, and the indigenous forces do not lack resources, so they will not deliberately search for mining areas.

After all, the real large mining areas are in their hands.

For example, there is a giant neutral city named [Hard Cliff Castle], which is also where the largest griffon nest is located.

There are a total of 29 small gem mines, 13 medium-sized gem mines, 5 large-sized gem mines, and 2 extra-large gem mines within a thousand kilometers nearby.

This is a real large-scale gem mining area!

The gemstone mine Zong Shen discovered was at best a medium-sized mine, and at most it belonged to a valley mining area that was easier to mine.

If this kind of scattered mining area is not exposed, it will be nothing, but if it is discovered by the indigenous people, it is likely to attract covetous attention.

Fortunately, the gem mine is located in the northern mountain forest, where countless monsters and ferocious beasts live.

That mountain forest is the buffer zone between the Kingdom of Avalon and the Kingdom of Nord, spanning a range of three to four thousand kilometers. The aboriginal people call that mountain forest the "Rotten Bone Forest".

The Goblin tribe, the Gryphon's Nest, the remains of the Lion Knights' residence, the Wildhoof Centaur tribe, the Stoneclaw Tauren tribe, and the Green Cypress Forest are all theoretically part of the [Rotten Bone Forest].

From this we can understand how huge the area of ​​the [Rotten Bone Forest] is.

Zong Shen didn't know the basis for this naming. At least in the places he visited in the [Rotted Bone Forest], he couldn't see any rotten soil or bones, only full of green life.

The land is also ordinary forest soil.

But after all, he has not set foot in most of these areas, let alone draw conclusions.

Maybe there is a dangerous place in the [Rotten Bone Forest] that fits the name element of "rotten bones".

He can ask the strategy module when the time is right.

As for now, forget it, he doesn't have time to explore for the time being.

In fact, he also has the [Thousand-Kilometer Level Directional Teleportation Tower Construction Diagram (Orange)] in his hand, which can build 1 main tower and 10 directional transmission towers, but the maximum transmission distance of this teleportation tower can reach 9999 kilometers.

And if you want to connect the [Gem Mine] to the territory [100-kilometer level teleportation array], it is enough.

Although space runes are much more precious than ordinary elemental runes, the territory has also collected some during this period. The materials currently stored in the territory are enough to cultivate three more [100-kilometer teleportation arrays]. When the time comes, they will give [gems] Mine] Just arrange one.

Zong Shen leaned back on his chair, drinking and letting his mind wander.

After recovering his thoughts, he focused on the remaining two rare-level drawings.

He raised his hand and took out a drawing, spread it on the table, gently put down the wine glass and took a look at its properties.

[Construction Diagram of the Fourth-Level Power Scattered Crossbow Tower (Purple)]

[Quality: Rare crossbow defense tower]

[Requirements: Level 4 Power Scattered Crossbow Tower Construction Diagram × 1]

[A complete building can be built without spending materials, please choose an area to place it]

[Construction time: 20 minutes]

[Occupied area: 45 square meters]

[Height: 15 meters]

[Range: 30 meters ~ 800 meters]

[Weapon: Type 4 Power Scatter Crossbow]

[Puncture damage: 119~122]

[Attack interval: 5 seconds]

[Sturdiness value: 3200]

[Building Armor: 35]

[Building magic resistance: 35]

[Each normal attack can launch a crossbow bolt at three random targets within the range]

[Skill: Hanawa Scattering lv10 (After activating this skill, the normal attack of the powerful scattered crossbow will change from 3 crossbow bolts to 12 crossbow bolts in the next five minutes. Each attack will be randomly locked within the range. 12 targets, cooling time 2 hours)

High-throwing crossbow lv15 (After activating this skill, the attack of the powerful scattering crossbow will become a high-throwing crossbow. The attack interval is extended to 10 seconds. Each high-throwing crossbow will be fired at the maximum shooting angle. , the range becomes 500 meters to 1200 meters. The high-throwing scattering crossbow will fall when it rises to the highest point and break into 100 scattered crossbow bolts. Each scattering crossbow has 0.5 times the puncture damage. The scattering range is about a radius of 30 meters, lasts 5 minutes, cooling time 2 hours)

Rapid fire lv10 (reduces the firing interval by 1.5 seconds, lasts 15 minutes, and has a cooling time of 5 hours)]

(A good fourth-level defense tower. It can fire three crossbow bolts at the same time with ordinary attacks. There is no increase in price for increasing the quantity. The overall output efficiency is extremely high)

Zong Shen read its attributes and clapped his hands to master it first.

As a Scattered Crossbow Tower, the piercing damage of this thing is about 70 points lower than that of the Giant Crossbow Tower, and its range is not as good as that of the Giant Crossbow, and it cannot penetrate multiple targets.

But its normal shooting can fire three crossbow bolts at the same time, and the initial shooting interval is only 5 seconds.

The overall killing efficiency within the range is higher than that of the giant crossbow tower.

It also comes with several skills that can further enhance output efficiency.

For example, [Flower Scattering] turns the three crossbow bolts of a normal attack into twelve crossbow bolts within five minutes.

The [High Throwing Scattered Crossbow] is equivalent to a projectile "grenade", suitable for dealing with low-level cluster targets that are tightly packed together. Although this skill extends the attack interval, as long as it is used properly, this wave of scattered crossbows will definitely shoot. So cool.

Finally, there is [Rapid Fire]. This skill is relatively common. After activation, it can shorten the attack interval by 1.5 seconds and last for 15 minutes, which is equivalent to directly increasing the output efficiency by 30%. It is simple and crude but easy to use!

I think Mariel will take the initiative to build it after seeing it in the building list.

Even though she doesn’t have a strategy module, she can’t see the skill details of the architectural drawings.

However, during this period of time, she also contacted and personally led people to build many buildings. As the saying goes, practice makes perfect. Under such circumstances, Mariel also gained a lot of experience. She can know the positioning and positioning of each building just by looking at it. arranged.

Next, is the last rare-level blueprint found in this batch of [Silver Treasure Chests].

It's also a defense system drawing, but it seems like this thing is a small shooting point?

You have to read the properties to know the details.

Zong Shen took another sip of wine and spread out the drawings according to the old rules and started looking at them.

[Level 4 Armored Shield Shooting Point Construction Drawing (Purple)]

[Quality: Rare grade small defensive building]

[Requirements: Forged steel plate

[Height: 5 meters]

[Front curved armor dimensions: 6 meters long (curved) × 3 meters high × 20 centimeters thick]

[Six shooting ports are reserved at 1.5 to 1.8 meters of the armor]

[Building time: 6 hours and 22 minutes]

[Sturdiness value: 7000]

[Building Armor: 75]

[Building magic resistance: 70]

[Each shooting point can accommodate 1 to 6 shooters]

[Suitable for constructing shooting points, which can be placed on buildings of level 4 and above]

[Shooting points cannot be placed in a superimposed combination, and the distance between two shooting points must not be less than two meters]

[Building effect: Arc defense (can cause a certain damage reduction effect on physical long-range attacks, with a fixed reduction of 35 points of long-range physical damage)

Armored firing point (can effectively protect shooters stationed at the firing point, providing them with an additional 10% toughness gain

Armor resistance (can cause a fixed reduction of 30 points of physical damage for close physical attacks)】

[Each shooting port is equipped with a movable steel plate, which can close the shooting port when necessary]

(This kind of armored shooting point can be superimposed on other buildings of the same level or higher than it, such as city walls, such as Lord's Fortress. It doesn't matter even if the width of the city wall is not enough. Its setting ensures that it can violate physics if it is placed successfully. The perfection of the law stands on any building that meets the standards, even if it is a defense tower, it is so willful

In other words, you can properly arrange basic armored shield guards as the basic firing point on the frontier. In addition to allowing crossbow shooters to station there, you can also choose mages or other long-range warriors to station them.

Coupled with other defense facilities and reinforced trenches, the safety of long-range warriors can be greatly increased)

Zong Shen also understood the function of this [Level 4 Armored Shield Guard Shooting Point (Purple)].

To put it simply, this is a small shooting fortress.

Various long-range warriors can be stationed and output calmly with the help of the cover of armored shield guards.

As a fourth-level defensive building, the armored shield's solidity value is not weak, reaching 7000 points, and its double resistance is also around 70 points. This defense data is very good for a fourth-level building, not to mention that it also comes with It has two damage-free effects and one effect that increases the toughness of the stationed warriors.

The most important thing is that this thing can be built on other buildings of the same level or higher than it...

Normally, although architectural drawings have the privileges of lords, they are reflected in the convenience of construction and repair.

All buildings are in harmony with each other and cannot be placed on top of each other.

For example, if a city wall has been placed in a place, then when the building is placed, this area will be marked in red and shown as a place that cannot be placed, and there is no possibility of stacking buildings on top of each other.

But this [Level 4 Armored Shield Guard Shooting Point (Purple)] is completely different.

Just imagine when a row of armored shield guards appears on the city wall or an armored shield guard appears on the top of a certain defense tower. This scene looks absolutely funny, and because of the building settings of the lord system, after the armored shield guards are successfully placed It will never fall off.

From this point of view, the practical value of this thing is still very high.

However, the overall cost performance is not as good as reinforced trenches.

The reason is also very simple, because the cost of making this thing is high, and many of the required materials are third-level and fourth-level materials, such as [precision forged steel plate], [precision forged steel sheet], [reforged black iron] This is true for Steel Beam] and [Mithril Wire].

This is because after passing the sixth-level dinar privilege 1 [Building Consumption Reduction], an additional 18% of the building consumption is reduced.

The dwarf uncle can make these materials, but the output is limited in a short time.

In addition to the materials, the construction time of this thing is also not short. Even after the dinar privilege and [Craftsman's Will] are reduced, it still takes more than six hours to build.

Currently, there is still a batch of [precision forged steel plates] and [precision forged steel sheets] in stock in the territory.

If the dwarf uncle works overtime overnight to prepare materials, he should be able to build two or three [Tier 4 Armored Shield Guard Shooting Points (purple)] in the four directions of the territory before the challenge starts at noon tomorrow.

He tapped the knuckles of his right hand on the table.

After thinking for a while, I decided to learn and master this drawing first.

After finishing, he used the [Communication Crystal] again to send a communication request to Mariel.

The communication was quickly connected. Zong Shen briefly explained the characteristics of the Scattered Nuclear Tower, and then told her about the [Armored Shield Guard Shooting Point (Purple)], asking her to arrange the manpower in advance, and Notify the dwarf uncle of the missing materials for advancement and forging.

After hanging up the communication, Zong Shen breathed a sigh of relief. He had finally finished reading the drawings of the [Silver Treasure Chest]!

－－－－－－Digression－－－－－

The first time [Hard Cliff Castle] appears is in Chapter 487.

Many details are gradually echoed, and the author may not necessarily remind them.
