Building infrastructure in a digital world

Chapter 18 18. The Turtle in the Urn
Through the gaps in the leaves, Su You could vaguely see the emptiness behind these two fire monsters. It seemed that there were only these two fire monsters, and the other companions did not follow.

Since there is such a good opportunity, Su You is not going to let it go. In her eyes, these two fire monsters have become guinea pigs for her to experiment with her trap setting.

After observing the action paths of the two fire monsters, Su You walked lightly to the front of the path of the fire monsters, and then took out the axe.

'Bang—'

With a sound that was not particularly loud, but very obvious to the two fire monsters, the dull sound sounded, and the two fire monsters were obviously attracted.Their eyes subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound source——

It's a pity that they couldn't see anything because of the cover of the plants.Just as they were about to leave, there was another bang from that direction.

I don't know if it's because of curiosity, or because I find this voice very annoying. In short, the two fire monsters not only stopped their steps to leave, but walked slowly towards Su You...

In this way, these two poor mice were slowly attracted by Su You to the attack range of Arrow Tower 2.

Although it is within the attack range of Arrow Tower 2, because Arrow Tower 2 is not equipped with arrows, the fire monster has not suffered any attacks.

But even so, they have already seen the existence of Arrow Tower 2 under Su You's deliberate attraction.

On the Sunset Continent, almost all monsters have a characteristic, that is, they will actively attack buildings, no matter what the building is or where the building is located.

As long as it appears in their field of vision, a command named 'Attack' will appear in their program instructions, and the priority of this command is much higher than everything else.

The only possible difference is that some monsters have relatively high AI (intelligence). Although they also like to attack buildings, they know how to better achieve their goals, instead of going on a rampage without knowing how to work around.

However, since this fire monster is a monster that drops fire materials in the city center, it is doomed that its IQ will not be very high, otherwise it will greatly affect the gameplay.

... After all, if you can't even kill the fire monster, and you can't even create a territory, what are you playing?
Therefore, after the two fire monsters saw Arrow Tower 2, they didn't need Su You to do anything, they just walked slowly towards Arrow Tower 2 in a daze.

They want to attack the arrow tower, but the location of the arrow tower 2 is very tricky. This is an arrow tower hidden in the gaps of many big trees, so it took a lot of effort for the fire monster to shuttle through these trees and come to the arrow tower 2, but just when they wanted to attack the arrow tower, a fence appeared in front of them.

Because of the fence, they couldn't attack the arrow tower, so the two fire monsters could only attack the fence that blocked their progress first.

Walking into the fence gate that Su You deliberately opened, the two fire monsters started to scratch the wooden fence with their claws frantically... and just as they were sinking into and attacking the wooden fence, the originally open fence gate behind them suddenly closed.

The only way out is closed, and the fire monster can be said to be a turtle in a urn now.

Want to leave?

impossible!
Unless they can tear down these fences!

Although the fire monsters are not smart, they also understand their situation. Their attacks are more fierce than before, but when they attack the fence, an arrow suddenly flies and pierces one of the fire monsters fiercely. Monster's arm.

It was impossible for them to let themselves be trapped, and it was impossible for Suyou to let them attack the fence and sit idly by.

The lack of action before was just a fear of scaring them away.

Now that they were trapped, Su You didn't have so many scruples, and directly opened the attack of Arrow Tower 1, let Arrow Tower 1 shoot arrows, and killed them as soon as possible.

The attack of the arrow tower is divided into two types, one is automatic attack and the other is manual operation.

The advantage of the former attack method is that it can liberate manpower, but the disadvantage is that it is not accurate enough. Once the target moves too fast, it is easy to shoot in the air.

As for the latter attack method, there are actually two types. One is Su You himself, that is, the player personally operates the arrow tower to attack.

As long as the skills pass the test, no matter how powerful the monster is, you can hit it with a hundred shots.

But Su You is only one person after all. After the city is built in the later stage, there will be thousands of monsters to attack the city. No matter how powerful she is, she can't control hundreds of arrow towers at the same time... But it doesn't matter, Because in the later stage, Su You can recruit relevant combat NPCs and let them operate the arrow tower.

There is a specialization in the art industry. If you can recruit NPCs with superb archery skills, not only will your accuracy be guaranteed, but this top-notch NPC can even increase the damage of the arrow tower!
But that's all for the future, Su You doesn't even have a territory now, let alone recruiting NPCs, she can't even meet face to face.

Although the accuracy of manual operation is higher, but because of Su You's arrangement, the two fire monsters are trapped in this place which is only a few steps away.

In the case of limited space, the two fire monsters could not hide no matter how much they wanted to hide, so even without manual operation of the arrow tower, the two fire monsters were easily dealt with.

With a few howls, the two fire monsters turned into ashes and disappeared, and at the same time as they disappeared, something emitting a faint white light appeared on the ground.

Su You opened the fence door, picked up the dropped objects, and recovered the fired arrows.

According to her calculations just now, the arrow tower fired a total of twelve arrows. It may be because of good luck just now that all twelve arrows were recovered by Su You without any loss.

In addition to arrows, Su You also picked up the drop from killing the fire monster.

[Get Copper Coin*3]

【Get Charcoal*6】

……

Copper coins are the common currency of this continent. They have many functions. They can be used to trade with merchants, and can also be used to purchase and upgrade buildings and so on.

In addition to copper coins, there are silver coins and gold coins, 10000 copper coins = 100 silver coins = 1 gold coin.

As for charcoal, needless to say, it is just ordinary charcoal, nothing special, the most important function is that it can be used as fuel.

In addition to being used as fuel, if you get feathers later, you can also use feathers, branches, and charcoal to make quills.

Because the arrow tower was just made, a set of wood and four strings were all used up, so Su You's current backpack has a lot of space, so she directly put the charcoal and copper coins into the backpack.
