Chapter 396 After the War
In two consecutive wars, nearly one-third of the city was destroyed. Although the smoke from the burning has dispersed, the ruins all over the city still tell the story of the cruelty of the war.After the heroic citizens destroyed the mechanical invasion plan and thwarted the invasion attempt of seven alien monsters, they were finally able to rebuild their homes with tears in their eyes. The streets were filled with various roaring large-scale construction tools. A few workers are busy among the construction vehicles, controlling the operation of the equipment.

According to Delia, before the mechanical invasion, similar work was much easier than it is now. Only a very small number of engineers were required to conduct unified command, and the construction of large buildings could be completed quickly.But this is no longer possible. No one dares to use purely automated machinery to work anymore. All equipment must have manual operation steps, which seriously slows down work efficiency, but it can also eliminate the tragedy of automatic machinery being controlled again.

However, when the Shadow Chasers witnessed the construction scene with their own eyes, they realized that the so-called severely reduced work efficiency seemed to be slightly different from what everyone imagined.

Well, in a construction site surrounded by many workers and construction tools, the building frame is increasing at a speed that can be distinguished by the naked eye. In less than an hour, a building of at least 70 meters high has been raised from the ground, and the external frame has been completed. of construction.Immediately, a large amount of gel-like fluid was poured into the frame. The upper layer was still flowing, but the lower layer had solidified and turned into a hard stone wall. No wonder the exterior walls of the buildings that the shadow chasers had seen before had no gaps left during construction. , such an integral pouring method naturally leaves no gaps.

More than a dozen construction sites were under construction at the same time. In the re-levelled block, buildings emerged from the ground one by one like mushrooms in the forest after the rain. Soon, the dilapidated block returned to its original appearance, covered by the new buildings. Old scars, as if the previous war never happened.

"Tsk, tsk, why are they so skilled?" Shuer clicked his tongue and sighed, "How many times have they experienced this?"

"Uncle, I don't know why, but I always have the urge to beat you to death, but you are right. We have experienced similar actions countless times." Delia pointed to the solidifying building in the distance. , "Mechanical invasion will happen once every month or two. Although it is rarely on the scale of the previous days and most of them are much smaller, some buildings will be damaged every time. Therefore, no matter how skilled the workers are in building construction, But, how long would it take for a similar building to be constructed in your world?"

"Well, I haven't built it before. The architectural style is different." Several shadow chasers looked at each other, and finally focused their attention on the dwarf. "Moback, how long will it take?"

"Damn it, O'Fregen is above, you are watching what I do. We dwarves have never built such a strange building, okay?" Even so, the architectural expert Mobak is still the one who has the most say. He stared at the construction site for a while and said, "According to Parvatiga's construction level, a similar building will take at least a year to complete."

"So soon?" Even Mia was shocked, "I thought it would take at least ten years."

"That's the magic tower of your mountain elves, mage, don't underestimate our dwarves' construction technology." Moback's attitude was extremely arrogant, so arrogant that he had forgotten who he was talking to, but the next moment, in the extreme arctic ice field Defeated under the cold gaze, he shrank his neck and muttered, "Anyway, we are so good. It only took 80 years to complete the Ofroda Castle. A high-rise building of this size takes almost a year."

"That's too slow, short uncle." Delia was amused by the interaction between several people. "If it takes that long to build a building, the speed cannot keep up with the speed of mechanical destruction. In a few years, the city will be destroyed. It has been demolished to the ground. Hey, it seems that our world is also better than yours."

Most of them are better than us, except for their personal combat capabilities.Each of the Shadow Chasers kept their expressions as normal, but it was obvious what they were thinking. "I hate this place. I hate buildings like this. Damn it, there is no architectural beauty at all. Architecture is art. Do you understand art? Every building is a delicate handicraft. What are they doing now? Copying it in large quantities. This is blasphemy, blasphemy against art, I..."

"silence."

The thunderous noise finally disappeared, Delia felt a refreshing sensation in her ears, and couldn't help but cast a grateful look at Mia.But the next moment, the girl grabbed Xiure's hand and lowered her voice and said, "Look, it's out."

Not far away, in the large building complex that the girl said was the city hall, there were hundreds of people lining up and walking out of it.These people wore the same thin uniforms, their hair was wet, and their faces were full of confusion as they couldn't figure out the situation. They instinctively followed the lower-level officials of the city hall who were leading the way, and occasionally exchanged a few words with each other. They asked each other what happened, but obviously everyone felt baffled and no one could give an answer.

"Eh? These people look so familiar." If Xiuer hadn't grabbed her tail in time, Moria might have jumped over to watch, but even so, this wild animal also tried its best to explore. He looked around curiously, "Hey, yo, I remembered, these were the ones who were strangled by me, and that one, eh? Didn't I shoot his head off with an arrow? Why was there no arrow hole left, and... …woo woo woo woo."

Moria's remarks were a bit too curious. He was so forced that he had to cover her mouth and pull her behind him to avoid being noticed. Among the people alive now, only the high-level people in charge know their image. Shuer didn't want everyone to know about the trouble. After all, the local residents were serious, and their behavior was not much cuter than the mechanical beasts. Well, at least the mechanical beasts didn't bring thousands of zombies to destroy the world view in their minds.

Except for wild deer whose brains are obviously different from ordinary people, it is inevitable to feel a little embarrassed when seeing these victims, especially after the first wave of reborn humans passed by, and the subsequent waves were victims of another battlefield. This Saff was too embarrassed to even raise her head. She didn't know what she had done after she went berserk. When she came back to her senses, she was surrounded by mutilated zombies, but she was not stupid. From the corpse The wound on her body could clearly see who caused the tragedy. As a rare moderate among the shadow chasers, she still felt a little guilty in her heart.

"Hi." Only Shuer could say hello with a smile when he passed by. It was his request to come here. From the beginning, he scanned everyone's face carefully and remembered it. Compared with the dead, well, there are really almost no human losses. It seems that the ability of the Life Archives is still very outstanding. No wonder that under the siege of machines, the City in the Sky can compete with the mechanical beasts for decades.

"You..." Groups of resuscitated people were brought back to the recovery center. What awaited them was memory reconstruction that lasted for several days. In other words, someone was sent to tell them the key events that happened in the city during this period of lost memory. , walking at the end were several officials who looked like upper-class people. They were looking at the shadow chasers with doubtful eyes. One of them, in particular, had a particularly ugly face. He was probably one of the few people who knew about it. "What's wrong with standing here?" something?"

"shop."
