Chapter 149: Monster 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 calmly.

The leaf that saved Zhang Weidong is equivalent to a characteristic card.

The person with characteristics is the awakener, so a characteristic card is equivalent to an awakener.

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 world fragments are like a bunch of grapes, which are aggregated by several or even more small fragments of different sizes."

"And the 'vines' connected to this bunch of 'grapes' are called branches by technicians."

"They believe that the 'grapes' in the same 'branch' can communicate and connect with each other... and beyond this range, even if you know the fragment number of the other party, you can't simply connect them by conventional means."

"In other words, N5001, our N7183 and other world fragments are all on the same 'branch'. Now that N5001 has disappeared, the 'vines' connected to it certainly don't exist."

"In other words... those monsters that ran in can't leave, and can only fight us to death in our bunch of 'grapes'."

After Zhang Weidong explained, Xiao Jian suddenly remembered something else.

He had tried to open the channel connected to N7183 with the jade "key" before, but he didn't succeed.

Because of the faith channel, he didn't think much about it at the time...

But now it seems that his courtyard may have left the bunch of "grapes" where N7183 is located, and entered a deeper "branch line".

This reminds Xiao Jian of the "drawing line" behavior of the boundary wall.

Obviously, the spirits have more information about this type of information...It seems that we have to find a time to call Morse out and interrogate him.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Weidong asked.

"I wanted to open the channel of N7183 before, but I didn't..." Xiao Jian replied.

"..."

Zhang Weidong was silent when he heard this, and his expression gradually became solemn.

"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 the faith channel!"

"...Anyway, we have to prepare in advance just in case...I have never heard of records of different branches communicating with each other, even when N5001 was still there, there was no such case."

Speaking of 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 more than 500,000 sunshine points every day, there are so many plant servants...

If the line is really disconnected suddenly, it will be too late to cry.

"Wait a minute, I'll go and consult..." Xiao Jian said.

"Consult? Consult who?" Zhang Weidong looked puzzled, "For things like faith channels, we can only guess but have no research..."

"...I know, I want to ask the 'friends' on the spirit side."

After that, Xiao Jian's clone closed his eyes, and in the small courtyard far away from N7183, Xiao Jian's original body opened his eyes.

Although he had wanted to interrogate Morse and extract more information about the spirits, Xiao Jian had not been so urgent before. He was still preparing to count the gains from the previous battle.

However, since there was a more urgent situation now, he had to put the interrogation of Morse on the agenda.

The cage that was built when interrogating Morse to obtain information had been crushed and disappeared by Oriteo's tentacles because it was located relatively forward.

Now Xiao Jian had to make a new cage... But this time, because of the [Sniper Re-touch Cannon], Xiao Jian didn't have to show so many big mouths to scare her.

Just aiming at the cage with the [Sniper Re-touch Cannon] on the tower, he was confident enough to easily suppress her.

Xiao Jian took out the "character card" from the bottom of the monster card, threw it into the center of the cage and chose to summon it.

"Bang..."

The card expanded rapidly, and the portrait on the card gradually grew larger and expanded, and soon changed from a 2D pattern to a 3D phantom...

Then, in the hazy mist, the phantom turned into a solid entity.

Morse's white and tender bare feet stepped on the solid ground.

"..."

The two looked at each other.

Morse quickly turned away, bowed his head slightly and said: "See my king."

"Hmm..."

Xiao Jian also quickly turned away... In this situation, he was easily distracted and couldn't help but secretly said that he had miscalculated.

"Don't move here." Xiao Jian turned back to the old house, found a clean bed sheet from the cabinet, although it was old.

When he came out, Morse was still standing there obediently, and even his posture had not changed.

Xiao Jian thought about it, and casually made a chair for her in the cage, and then threw the bed sheet on her through the gap of the cage.

"Sit down, cover yourself a little... I have something to ask you."

"Yes, my king." Morse picked up the bed sheet, shook it open, folded it in half, and then directly wrapped it around his body, left and right, and finally left two corners to meet at the waist...

Tie the two corners of the bed sheet at the waist to form a beautiful bow, which looks very tight but not revealing, simple and elegant dress!

Is this still my bed sheet?

Xiao Jian suddenly fell into confusion...

And what's wrong with Morse's aesthetics?

Only the calves and collarbones are exposed, but why does it look more eye-catching than before! ?
