The system was set three years in advance, but the universal deities still hadn't arrived.

Upon receiving Zeng Shen's order, Succubus Nusi began arranging manpower, having Yousi lead a group of succubi to fly around the valley and explore the surrounding area.

Followed by.

She then instructed the Fire Rat Clan to cut down the tall trees in the surrounding area and collect the surrounding stones, piling them up near the portal.

Then the Fire Spirits rode their Flaming Horned Horses to patrol the valley entrances on both sides.

Zeng Shen then threw his "eyes" at the tall trees, wild grass, vines, and mountains on both sides, hoping to obtain more useful information.

[Giant Eucalyptus Tree: A common giant tree in the elven world, it grows extremely fast, reaches an age of 300 years, is 30 meters tall, has a diameter of 30 centimeters, and can produce 6 units of timber.]

[Ancient Podocarpus macrophyllus: A giant pine commonly found in the Podocarpus macrophyllus forest, with a moderate growth rate, reaching 300 years old, 10 meters tall, and 20 centimeters in diameter. It can produce 2 units of timber, a high-quality material for furniture making, and can produce 100 edible Podocarpus macrophyllus cones per month.]

[Giant Vine: A type of vine common in the fairy world, with extremely strong vitality. The vine contains a large amount of edible water; if a section is picked and hung up, it will drip water that can be eaten.]

[Luohan Forest Mountains: Two Luohan Forest mountain ranges, each tens of kilometers long, seem to contain considerable mineral reserves, requiring careful exploration to discover their treasures.]

Deciduous grass: A common wild grass suitable for feeding herbivorous domesticated animals.

[Wild Chrysanthemum: Also a plant in the Asteraceae family, its flowers can be steeped in water for drinking, and have heat-clearing and detoxifying properties...]

Zeng Shen looked around, constantly seeing the panels that appeared under the Peeping Eye.

In an instant, I had a general idea of ​​the area I was in.

Currently, the area I am in should be an ancient forest called Luohan Forest.

as predicted.

As he flew to the top of the steep ridge on the right, stood on a huge tree, and looked around.

As far as the eye could see, there was a lush green forest everywhere, with many strange beasts seemingly roaming in the woods, while in the far distance, there appeared to be a plain.

"It seems like a good start. The area we're in should have plenty of resources. I just wonder how many elven races live and work in this forest."

Zeng Shen thought to himself.

About twenty minutes.

Near the portal, the Fire Rat Clan felled a large number of trees and collected or picked up a lot of stones, piling them up around the area.

Zeng Shen flew down from the mountain and stared at the large pile of wood and stones at the teleportation portal, his consciousness slightly concentrating.

Above these timbers and stones, right before his eyes, the speed was converted into a detailed value.

Timber: 135 units.

[Stone materials: 103 units.]

Upon seeing that these two materials were sufficient to construct the Hell Castle Hall, Zeng Shen immediately ordered all the surrounding Fire Spirit Rat Clan members to move aside and cease collecting the materials.

Followed by.

He opened the building panel and reached out to click on the hellish castle hall again.

[To build the Hell Castle Hall, you need to stack 100 units of wood and 100 units of stone next to the portal. The conditions are met. Do you wish to build?]

"Yes."

Zeng Shen responded with a light murmur.

In an instant, the wood placed beside the teleportation gate burst into flames, while the nearby rocks seemed to melt, transforming into scorching magma that carried the burning wood into the teleportation gate.

The next second, a 500-square-meter crater of lava suddenly appeared below the portal.

When this magma crater appeared, the intense heat instantly spread throughout the entire valley.

Many plants instantly burst into flames, sending up thick plumes of smoke.

However, the flames produced by these plants only reach a temperature of around 300 degrees Celsius, which is the same as the temperature naturally generated by the soil of hell for the followers of Moss, and they feel nothing from them.

therefore.

All the Morse followers present stared intently and curiously at the magma crater below the portal in the raging, burning valley.

Because they sensed that something might appear in this huge pit.

Soon, the entire valley trembled slightly, and then a hellish castle hall, covering an area of ​​500 square meters, slowly rose from the magma crater. It was filled with an evil and corrupt aura, with many statues of hellish races on the roof, dark red walls, and a scorching heat.

When this hellish castle hall appeared, the raging flames that had filled the entire valley were absorbed by the hall, turning it into a scorched, dark red expanse.

And at this time.

Zeng Shen heard a notification sound and a panel appeared in front of him.

[Congratulations to the former Demon God Envoy for being the first to establish the Hell Castle Hall, earning 1000 Divine Trial Points and expanding your territory's influence to 5 square kilometers.]

[Warning: Creatures within the territory's radiation range, affected by Hell Castle, will launch an attack on the Hell Castle's main hall tomorrow afternoon. Former Demon Lords, please quickly construct defensive fortifications to withstand the attack.]

[Please, former Demon God Envoy, name the castle.]

"Original Demon Castle".

Zeng Shen didn't think much of it before speaking.

The next second, he heard another notification sound, one that only he could hear.

[Congratulations, Former Demon Lord! The Former Demon Castle has been successfully named. To unlock related buildings in Hell Castle, please click on the construction interface to view detailed information.]

Upon hearing the notification sound, Zeng Shen immediately opened the building interface and began to look around curiously.
