Fire Monster

Chapter 145: City Building Mission in Progress (Additional Chapter 2005 for Book Friend Xueshan Yuanfeng 44)

Zhao Guanshan was not exaggerating. Repairing the city wall was a difficult task.

Otherwise, why would he reject Xiao Chengyun's proposal? It was because this small stronghold city could not be built casually.

It is equivalent to that in a piece of barren and dry land, someone has helped to build the canals needed for irrigation to the fields, and the rest is for you to cultivate the land yourself.

It would be short-sighted to give up at this time.

Of course, there is a price to pay for doing so, and that is the waste of very precious time.

For example, he spent most of the day dismantling fifty barracks before he had enough supplies to repair the damaged city walls.

Neither he nor Xiao Chengyun spoke a word, each of them occupied a position. Sun Zei and others were not worthy of helping, and could only watch the two men moving stones, piling stones, tamping soil, and hammering nails.

They worked until late at night and finally managed to build a pile of bricks less than ten meters apart.

This means that if they want to fully repair the collapsed city wall, the two of them will have to work like this for at least another five or six days.

"What a sin! Senior Brother, what a sin! I am a Level 2 Qi Refiner, a beautiful lady like a flower, and you asked me to do such a thing. Don't you feel heartbroken?"

When he finally returned to the barracks, Xiao Chengyun lay down in the room, almost collapsing.

Zhao Guanshan ignored her and said, "You have chosen the path yourself, so you have to grit your teeth and keep going."

Besides, if you are tired, am I not tired too?
After finishing his work outside, he still had to sit in front of the operating table and repair the damaged psychic weapons against the clock.

Because as of today, on average everyone only has one usable psychic weapon left.

There are a lot of people queuing up at the operating counter.

They didn't want to compromise or replace their own psychic weapons, and had to keep a close eye on them the whole time. It wasn't because they didn't trust Zhao Guanshan, but because they didn't trust the bunch of shifty bastards around them.

But in this situation, even if Zhao Guanshan had eight hands, he would not be able to handle it.

Because there were no ready-made spare parts, he had to first determine where the psychic weapon that needed repair was faulty and what needed to be replaced, and then he had to search for a replacement among the pile of damaged psychic weapons nearby.

It often takes more than half an hour to repair a psychic weapon.

Fortunately, Xiao Chengyun came soon with an unhappy look on his face, opened another Xin-level quality operating table, and began to dismantle the damaged psychic weapons on a large scale.

The intact parts are put together, the intact frames are put together, the parts that can be repaired but are damaged are put together, and the parts that cannot be repaired and can only be recycled are put together.

With her help, Zhao Guanshan could repair his psychic weapons much faster.

Of course, each person is still limited to repairing one piece.

Even so, when the time-telling instrument rang and a new day began, Zhao Guanshan had only repaired twenty-four psychic weapons.

"Brother, this is not a solution. You need to ask if there is anyone in the camp who can repair psychic weapons?"

"We have to repair the city walls during the day and repair weapons at night. When will this end?"

Xiao Chengyun had a melancholy look on her face, and she was beginning to regret it.

"Be patient and take it one step at a time. Today and tomorrow, we will shift our focus to psychic weapons and try to ensure that everyone in the first and second teams can be equipped with psychic weapons. On the third day, the Demon Mother's lair will need to be destroyed again. This time, I plan to collect one-third of the Demon Spirit Liquid."

Zhao Guanshan could only comfort her, saying that he was actually quite happy. If it weren't for Xiao Chengyun, all these things would have to fall on his shoulders.

Do you really think that the S-level city-building mission is that simple?

Come on, keep working on it!

Zhao Guanshan always does what he says. He is like a tireless spinning top, busy here and there, from day to night, without any rest.

Although Xiao Chengyun had been complaining, feeling depressed, and regretting all the time, he did not fall behind.

The two of them spent two days and two nights repairing a total of 240 psychic weapons in one go.

According to the troop configuration of two elite teams of eighty people, each person has exactly three psychic weapons. Including the one left in their hands, each person can have an average of four psychic weapons.

This is the best embodiment of combat effectiveness and the greatest sense of security.

At this time, Liu Yuwei successfully transformed the twelve acquired pure Yang Qi in her body into six innate pure Yang Qi, and became a second-level Qi Refiner very smoothly.

Liu Yuwei, who had officially come out of confinement, no longer felt that strong, crazy urge to reproduce, because that rich vitality was finally able to be restrained by herself.

The mysterious aura of a Qi Refiner also makes her look very different. From Zhao Guanshan's perspective, it is the difference from seven points to eight points.

However, after Liu Yuwei put on the sealed helmet, all of this disappeared, and she was still the powerful, terrifying, righteous, brave, and invincible Valkyrie who was ready to go at any time.

"You two have worked hard over the past three days."

"So what's the plan next, my Lords?"

Liu Yuwei was obviously more confident, and even in the mood to joke. "Senior Sister Yuwei, my current plan is to get a good night's sleep." Xiao Chengyun complained.

As a result, Zhao Guanshan immediately stopped him.
"No, now is the most critical moment. We have to fight for at least three more days and three nights."

"I do not!"

"Mr. Military Inspector, you don't want to waste all the efforts of the past three days, right?" Zhao Guanshan had no choice but to use the art of language.

"Why?! I'm in a terrible state right now, my mind is a mess, you're trying to murder me!"

"Because what we have reaped are all wealth and merit!" Zhao Guanshan advised earnestly. Although the Governor's attack has come to an end, it does not mean that the Governor will stop.

"Can I help? I am also a Qi Refiner now." Liu Yuwei interrupted.

As a result, Zhao Guanshan and Xiao Chengyun both denied it.

"cannot!"

"why?"

"Because you are not a liberal arts student, now, Commander, you are responsible for leading a team to continue to destroy the Demon Mother's Lair, and I and--"

Before Zhao Guanshan could finish his words, Yu Che ran over in a hurry.

"Commander, Brother Zhao, and Military Supervisor, the situation is not good. This morning, when our team was out on patrol, we discovered that the twelve Demon Mother nests in the eastern region had been seized! All the Demon Spiritual Liquid inside had been swept away!"

Hearing this, Zhao Guanshan, Liu Yuwei, and Xiao Chengyun were all shocked.

They know all too well what this means.

Two days ago, the reason why they destroyed the Demon Mother's lair but did not collect the demon liquid inside was that they wanted to make a fortune.

You know, the magic liquid in a demon mother's lair, even after layer by layer of exploitation, is worth four or five hundred merit points.

Now that the twelve Demon Mother's lairs have been seized, it means that they have directly lost nearly 6,000 merit points.

In addition, the magic liquid is equivalent to highly concentrated spiritual energy, which is oil. It is a core resource necessary for the operation of the first-level spirit supply tower. If it is all taken away, what is the point of their S-level city-building mission?
"Brother, Sister Yuwei, we must not tolerate this. We must stop them. This is the territory of our Second Development Camp!"

Xiao Chengyun was immediately furious. She was already so poor. If even the Magic Spirit Liquid was snatched away, would she, a dignified Qi Refiner, be forced to become a beggar?

"It's too late to stop it. There's no doubt that this is a new trick used by the Chief Secretary. We should rush to harvest it without delay. But we still have one last step to overcome. That is how to seal the magic liquid?"

Zhao Guanshan looked at Xiao Chengyun. After all, only she had the opportunity to learn about this kind of thing.

"The magic liquid is a highly concentrated form of magic energy, and its pollution effect is extremely strong. It cannot be contained by ordinary means or containers, so it must be sealed with a special sealing talisman. However, to make a sealing talisman of this level, one must be at least a level 3 Qi Refiner. We cannot make one."

Xiao Chengyun shook his head in frustration.

"Can you tell me more specifically? What is the essence of this sealing talisman?" Zhao Guanshan asked unwillingly.

"There is no essence, Brother. There are no tricks or secrets. The essence of the seal is the suppression of low-level power by high-level power. Any kind of magic symbol or any kind of magical power will do, but the premise is that the magic liquid must be suppressed by at least twice to keep it in a stable state. Do you understand what I mean?"

"It's like Senior Sister Yu Wei. She presses you down on the bed, and you can't get up no matter how hard you try. The effect is the same as holding you down with a rock."

"What the hell are you talking about? Just tell me, if I let you seal it, how much can the magical powers you possess suppress the magic liquid?" Zhao Guanshan's heart moved when he heard this, and he vaguely thought of a solution.

"As for my magical power, the runes condensed by the Broken Gold Technique can suppress the Demon Spirit Liquid by 0.5 times, and the Qianjin Sword Qi can suppress the Demon Spirit Liquid by up to 0.6 times."

"Senior Sister Yuwei is even worse than me. As for you, you haven't even cultivated a breath of innate pure yang energy, so don't even think about it."

"Not necessarily!"

Zhao Guanshan shook his head. Now, it is known that Xiao Chengyun's Broken Gold Technique can suppress the Demonic Spirit Liquid by 0.5 times. At the same time, it can be known that her Broken Gold Technique is still a first-level Broken Gold Technique.

Then in theory, it should be about the same level of power as his first-order dispel rune.

The second-level dispel rune will increase the first-level dispel rune by about 30%~40%.

The third-level dispel rune increases the dispel effect by 30%~40% on the basis of the second-level.
The fourth-level dispel rune increases the dispel effect by about 30%~40% based on the third-level rune.

Of course, this number was calculated by Zhao Guanshan himself, so there are bound to be some discrepancies.

So, by analogy, to be on the safe side, if you can light up the fifth-level dispel rune, will you be able to achieve double suppression of the magic liquid?
However, lighting up the fifth-level dispelling rune is a bit difficult!

It was too late for him to dig a hole and set up a stupa for the spirits.

Then, Zhao Guanshan looked at Liu Yuwei.

Sorry, my nurse!
