The Era of Gods

Five months later, Lin Xiao officially put the core of the fortress into this valley.

Only the fist-sized crystal-like core was put down, a layer of crystal light bloomed and spread rapidly, and soon formed a light and shadow like a two-story small building.

The light and shadow condensed and turned into a small building made of crystal-like translucent material. This is the core of the fortress. As long as the house is destroyed, the fortress will be breached.

The core of the fortress that has just been put down has only level zero, and only a few simple functions.

The first one can recruit several NPCs with simple functions, such as selling sundries, repairing equipment, and three NPCs of the fortress quartermaster.

The second one is to change the rules of the surrounding range, so that monsters cannot be refreshed in the range.

The third is to become the player's resurrection point and Hearthstone's binding location. Now he is the only stronghold in this broken floating land. Human players died on this broken floating land. They used to be randomly resurrected, but now they are all resurrected here.

A zero-level fortress cannot exchange demon marks for NPC subordinates. This is a function of a first-level official fortress, not to mention the teleportation array that can only be established by a third-level fortress.

It takes one hundred thousand gold coins to upgrade a first-level fortress, and then nothing else.

It is very simple, there is almost no threshold for just upgrading, the biggest problem is only those monsters that are affected and want to destroy the fortress.

Lin Xiao has enough confidence in this point, and has been preparing for it for the past six months.

Take out the tokens given to him by several races who have been favored to get rid of the control of the demon power, and send letters to the three powerful indigenous races he helped before, namely a group of purgatory centaurs, a group of hell ogres, and a group of ten The lowest number of heads is also a strengthened elite, and the leader template has three Chimera groups.

Those who can survive on the broken floating land of purgatory surrounded by demons until now are all strong fighting races, and all of them have leaders with a level above 80.

With the addition of the bear monster leader, Lin Xiao can get the help of a total of six leaders above level 80, plus the strength of their clansmen and Lin Xiao himself

Half a month after putting down the core of the fortress, Lin Xiao upgraded the fortress to the first level, and quickly exchanged all the demon marks accumulated since leaving the expeditionary fortress for NPC subordinates, including a purple demon mark for a leader elf shooter .

When the fortress was upgraded, all the demons within a ten-kilometer radius around the fortress began to riot, rushing towards the fortress as if attracted by something.

The demons within a radius of 10 kilometers to 20 kilometers were also affected, some of them also rushed towards the fortress, and some remained indifferent.

But what Lin Xiao was most concerned about was the huge demon city in the distance. This demon city was just about 20 kilometers away from the fortress, and it was just on the edge of the secondary influence. At this time, many demons inside were already restless.

Sitting on the flying mount and staring at the distance, Lin Xiao was relieved to see groups of demons leaving the Demon City and walking towards the fort after a while.

Although there are many demons affected, I haven't seen a large number of BOSS-level demons appearing, which is relatively the best.

He didn't turn around until he observed that the first batch of demons leaving the demon fortress were about to approach the fortress.

As soon as he turned around, Lin Xiao suddenly saw a message flashing under his nose. He checked that it was a message from Gucheng, and clicked on it:

"Brother, are you still on this floating continent? A large group of Nightmare Sons have come recently, and they have united to destroy a companion's fortress. We want to unite and help each other. Are you interested?"

This is not good news!

Lin Xiao pondered for a while and replied:

"I'm building a fortress right now, and I'm facing the threat of monsters attacking the city. Let's talk about how to deal with it when the fortress is upgraded to the first level."

Respond quickly face to face:

"You chose the location so quickly? Where is it? I'll come and have a look when I have time."

"Near the demon fortress you once gave up."

"???"

Gu Cheng only replied with three question marks, and it was obvious that he knew where it was, but he couldn't believe that he would choose this place for a while.

He smiled slightly and said:

"You heard me right, it's there."

Gucheng sat there silent for a long time. Two players looked at him. One of them, a man in a mage's robe, knocked on the table and asked:

"what's wrong?"

He looked up with a very strange expression on his face, feeling like he didn't know what to say, and he said after a while:

"I met a desperate guy, and he actually established a fortress near the central demon fortress in the broken floating land of purgatory."

The other two also froze for a moment, and one of them asked:

"Is it the place you weighed and gave up for a long time?"

Gucheng nodded:

"That's right there, he is now ready to advance to the first-level fortress."

"Oh! Then he's dead!"

Another man in chain armor shook his head and said:

"I have also seen that place. The most suitable place to build a fortress is about 20 kilometers away from the devil's fortress. Once the fortress is built, it will definitely attract the demons in the fortress. As long as a small part is mobilized, the fortress can be easily flattened. By the way, How is your friend's strength?"

Gucheng recalled and said:

"The strength is very strong. Although I haven't seen all of them, I have seen several subordinates under him who have the template of the leader in just a few days of contact."

"No wonder you have the guts to try it. If you have four or five leaders and have reached the seventy-fifth level or higher, it is possible to succeed with the help of geographical advantage and a little bit of luck."

"Tsk tsk, as the saying goes, wealth is found in danger, and the value of that place is indeed worth the risk."

The mage raised his glass and took a big sip, shook his head and said:

"We have thought about that place, but we can't hold it if we don't have enough strength. If your friend can hold it, he will make money in the future."

"Then this joint operation?"

Gucheng looked at the two friends.

The mage smiled and said:

"Wait a minute, the monster siege won't last long, and when it's over, if he can successfully defend it, he'll get a share. If he can't, then it goes without saying."

"That's fine."

Demon Town Fortress.

Lin Xiao named his newly built fortress the Demon Fortress, implying the suppression of nearby demon fortresses.

Standing on the top of the fortress that has been promoted to a first-level fortress and has turned into a tower of more than 20 meters high, I can see that the two ends of the valley are fighting fiercely at this time, and the two exit passages are crowded with monsters.

Lin Xiao divided his subordinates into three parts, one part was guarding the back, the other part was guarding the passage facing the devil's purgatory fortress, and a small part was the reserve.

After the fortress was upgraded, the valley, including everything in the valley, became part of the fortress. For example, the walls and gates at the two exits of the valley were recognized by the system as having defense and health points. Once the health points were exhausted, they would be broken.

I have to say that the terrain of this valley is really good. There are only two passages surrounded by mountains, so you just need to stick to it.

Gucheng and others did not dare to choose this place to build a fortress before. There are too many demons. There are probably millions of demons gathered in the demon fortress called Purgatory and its surroundings. Even if only a small part is attracted, there are more than one hundred thousand. In addition to the other demons around, in fact, if Lin Xiao hadn't cheated to get the Ring of Glory to attract several demonized groups around him, normally he would have to face the attacks of these powerful groups.

A total of nearly 200,000 demons and demonized creatures are really beyond the reach of ordinary players, even with terrain advantages.

Only the BOSS with more than 30 leaders and five lord templates in his hands dared to gamble. Except for him, no one can build a fort here at this stage.

The lord-level astral mage with a level as high as seventy-five summoned infinite silver void energy to form lightning that poured down like a torrential rain, and the damage in one wave was as high as eight or nine thousand. The continuous pouring, the dense damage almost wiped the screen, Coupled with the blizzard and fire rain mixed in, most ordinary demons lasted less than a second in the void rainstorm.

No matter how much cannon fodder there is, it's useless if you can't even get close to the city walls.

In the early stage, Lin Xiao wasn't worried at all. What he was worried about was part of the regular demon army behind.

It was a regular demon army whose basic fighters were all seventy-five-level elite templates. It should be part of the only regular army left in this world by Void Demon.

The demon regular army has a legion leader, usually a lord above level 85, and one or two legion commander aides, level 80 or above, and the template is generally a lord template.

Further down there are at least ten and at most twenty warlords. The warlords of regular demon legions are generally leader templates above level 80.

It can be calculated from this that a regular demon army should have more than 100,000 soldiers, all of whom are elites above level 75.

Of course, at this time behind the cannon fodder is definitely not a complete army, but a half division, about 15,000 or so, but there are two warlords and an army lieutenant inside, which are his biggest threat.

Well, just threats.

The biggest effect of the 160,000 to 70,000 cannon fodder is to upgrade all the subordinates to one level, among which many leader mages have gained the most benefits. The star mage and an ice mage have been upgraded by two levels, and the level has jumped to seventy-eight. , only one step away from level eighty.

The city wall of Taniguchi has collapsed, and there are too many enemies. Even if only a small part of them rush up and fight each other, the durability will be exhausted.

After the war, Taniguchi's corpses piled up like a mountain, and countless rays of light representing the spoils of war formed a piece like an ocean.

Even if only one-tenth of these corpses had trophies, that would be a huge amount. Even if they were all rubbish, they could earn a few thousand gold just by selling the rubbish. The fact is that they couldn’t all be rubbish, and there were some small bosses among the cannon fodder.

At this time, there is no time to pick up the loot, because the regular group of demon masters has already pressed up.

Lin Xiao transferred Taniguchi's subordinates from the other side and prepared to guard here.

Compared with the disorderly charge of these cannon fodder and wild demons, regular demons are many times stronger. Hundreds of elite demon warlocks summoned hellfire at the same time, and a meteorite burning with green flames fell from the sky and fell into the valley, officially kicking off the final battle.

Hundreds of demon wizards surrounded a warlord, and together they condensed an extremely thick green light to fix a leader of the ice mage, and saw the evil energy gushing out of the leader's ice mage at a speed that was almost visible to the naked eye. Being quickly corrupted and corrupted by the power of demons.
