Chapter 5 Nightfall (V)

Ammond's idea was nothing wrong, because Rhodes planned to do that.

After Benny of the War Angels Legion explained to him, this idea came into his heart. In fact, he lacked a lot of things now, such as manpower. Although there are many troops stationed in the fortress, Rhode is also very qingchu. If the war in other places is more tense than here, then they will leave. The reason why Lydia sent a magic fleet here is also the same. On the one hand, they are responsible for defense work, and on the other hand, their work is to turn into troop transport ships to transport the soldiers to places where they need them more when necessary. Rhode knows very well that this is the case with war, and he is just a small lord at present. It is simply a fantasy to expect Lydia to hand over all the troops to his command, mobilize and control.

So in the end, you have to rely on your own strength.

But the soldiers did not fall from the sky. The summoning gate in Rhode's current hand can only lead to the water elemental realm. It is simply delusion to expect those sea elves to fight against the Immortal Army. If he has a summoning gate leading to the Star Hall or the Earth of Steel in his hand, it might be better. At least he can summon something that is enough to fight against the Immortal Army. But now, he doesn't have these in his hand, so he can only think about it.

But the soldiers did not fall from the sky. The soldiers in Rhodes' hands are only more than 3,000. This shows how difficult it is to recruit soldiers. From this perspective, it is much easier to die in the army. Whenever they wave to a battlefield or cemetery, a large group will immediately rush up to respond. They do not care about treatment at all, and they will not complain or be on standby. They are really the best army.

Since it is impossible to increase the quantity, work hard on quality. Since it cannot rely on enough manpower, then use equipment to make up for it. This is the only way Rhodes can come up with at present. It’s a pity that this is really not a game world, otherwise it would be much more comfortable to find a player to sweep from behind and fight guerrillas in the Kingdom of Night.

In fact, Rhodes asked for these things, which was quite a bit like a lion's mouth, but he felt that there was nothing wrong with this. In fact, when he proposed his own idea, Marlene's face turned pale. In her opinion, Rhodes' move was completely disrespectful to the entire Moon royal family, but in Rhodes's view, it was natural. It was natural for players to reach the reputation of worship and receive power rewards. So when Benny spoke, the player's thinking in Rhodes' mind was launched in an instant. Anyway, Lydia still owed her a wish before, and she had not been able to cure Christie. She also told Rhodes in person that she wanted to keep this wish, and it was not a big deal if she used it here now.

Of course. In ordinary people's eyes, using that kind of wish to exchange for a lot of wealth is simply a sign of vain and foolishness, but Rhodes doesn't think so, because what he lacks the most now is money. The reason is very simple. After the previous battle, the construction system was upgraded again.

For Rhodes, this is a story full of blood and tears.

His previous idea was to destroy the Immortal Army to obtain Jingyàn. In fact, the two consecutive victories also made Rhode full of confidence, because there were no players here. No one evenly divided him. Although Xiao Xiao Bubble Gum and Canary were not equipped, they were all full-level, so naturally there was no need for Jingyàn. However, Rhode had calculated it very much, but he missed a person.

The Heart of the Blue Lan.

As the only two who can be upgraded on the battlefield, Bilan Heart naturally absorbed a lot of jingyàn. Although it was not much compared to the jingyàn obtained by Rhode in the later stage. However, she started over from level one and naturally upgraded quickly. As a result, after the battle ended, Bilan Heart directly rose from the lowest level to level 35, and jumped into the late stage of the elite peak. However, the Magician was not a combat profession like a mage or a swordsman. So most people didn't notice anything. But for Rhode, this was a living tragedy.

After examining his jingyàn, he found that he was still 1500 points away to reach level 60, which made Rhodes' eyes dark. Although to be fair, this battle has gained a lot, for Rhodes, seeing that the 1500 points were almost made him vomit blood. 1500 points was not much, which was a hated jingyàn. But now the immortal army is retreating in full swing. Where should he find a hated to cut?

In the end, Rhode had no choice but to settle for the second best choice, which was the Necromancer Saimen who was imprisoned in the dungeon by him.

It's really unlucky to say that this guy is really bad. In fact, his fate shouldn't have been so miserable. Rhodes always hoped that he could have a necromancer's help. Although in the eyes of humans in this world, undead creatures are no different from demons, they have to admit that they have their own unique talents when doing some crazy things. What's more, with its soul core in hand, Rhodes is not afraid of this guy doing anything for him, so he can barely live in the dungeon in Saimen, but now... for his 1500 points, Rhodes has to do it.

The poor necromancer was eventually destroyed in Rhode's hands, and even his ashes were taken to make a tragic fate.

After killing Symon, Rhodes finally barely passed the level 60th level with 2,000 points. From now on, he has truly entered the legendary realm. However, because he needs to clean up the aftermath and other work after the battle, Rhodes did not have time to make time to choose talent and swordsmanship points. However, outside of this, he got a surprise that the system prompted him to build a system and upgrade it.

And it is precisely because of seeing the upgrade prompts for the construction system that Rhodes made this choice.

After the upgraded construction system, a large part of it was reinforcement and upgrading of city walls, fortresses and bunkers, but these were not important. What was important was that Rhodes discovered that a defensive weapon was unlocked in the upgraded fortress, that was the magic cannon.

Magic cannons are the most common defensive weapons on the entire Dragon Soul Continent. Many large and medium-sized cities and fortresses have magic cannons. However, because magic cannons are expensive and have long construction periods, most of the city cannons are mainly magic cannons and supplemented by crossbows. In addition, archers and mages are used to defend, which is a qualified and complete city defense system. From this point of view, Rhodes' fortress is quite incomplete. When facing the Immortal Army before, he did not have magic cannons, and even had such a pitiful number of crossbows. The rest are archers. If it weren't for Canary and Little Bubble Gum, he wouldn't have won so easily.

However, this world is different from the earth. Although the magic technology industry is very developed, it has not invented anything like the mobile artillery in the human world. Rhode once asked Marlene curiously, and then learned that these magic cannons are complex in structure and difficult to move after installation. Generally speaking, it takes at least half a year to assemble a magic cannon, which depends on the model and caliber. If the magic cannon with greater power, it takes longer to assemble, and some even take more than ten years to complete. Moreover, the magic cannon cannot be moved after assembly. Although it is not impossible to install wheels below, this world

But without rubber, it is conceivable how much damage will those wooden wheels take to the magic cannons when they act on bumpy ground. It is good to fall apart. If they are hit by external shocks and explode directly, it is a scam. Unless it is a relatively stable environment like a floating ship, it is a bad idea to directly use magic cannons on the battlefield. So now in siege battles, basically all the people who take action are spellcasters, and the original equipment such as catapults are of little significance to all parties. Because a complete city block has a barrier to protect long-range weapons, not to mention in this era of magic, some methods are used to deal with those simple siege tools.

Hearing this, Rhode could only shrug helplessly. He originally planned to build a tank based on magic cannons, but now it seems unlikely.

But now, this is a good thing for Rhodes.

There are three biggest problems with the construction of magic cannons, which are expensive, long manufacturing time and difficult supply of raw materials. But this is not a problem in Rhodes' eyes, and it is expensive... Of course, there is no way to do this. He has no money, but it does not mean that the Principality of Moon has no money and His Highness Litia has no money. They are all rich people who can compete with their own country. As long as they are willing to pay for money, what can they make?

Long manufacturing time is not a problem. Although Rhodes has not yet played a role in how his own system works in this world, it can be seen that the effect is good. Not to mention the other way, this fortress of Atonement, even if it is built by the mage, it will take several years to complete. Not to mention the Holy Girl, the existence of this kind of artifact is even more difficult and cumbersome to create. However, he only needs to spend money and then click to confirm, and everything is created like this. Of course, sometimes some raw materials such as magic crystals may be needed, but overall, this is much faster than ordinary construction.

The magic cannon is driven by magic power, and the magic itself comes from the Magic Spring. The building of each city block will consider this. Choose a place where magic power is condensed. In fact, the same is true for the land of atonement. It is close to the junction of the two dragon souls. A huge magic current has been surging under the earth. Originally, Rhodes planned to build a Magic Spring here because it can not only provide infinite power to the magic cannon, but also allow people with mage talents to awaken their own power. It is also a good choice if they can use this to create a team of mages. It is impossible for them to always let Canaries and the people behind them stand there and watch the fun. Even the boss battles also bring summoning monsters.

It was precisely because of this idea that Rhodes asked for two sets of artifact equipment by the way. The previous injury of Canary made him feel a little ashamed. Indeed, no matter how powerful a player is, in addition to skills, consciousness and talent, equipment is also an indispensable part. He asked Canary to wear a level 40 suit to resist the peak spell of level 75. Unless she is a hidden race, no matter how high the magic resistance is, it is not enough to see.

However, Rhode also knew to restrain himself. Although he wanted it, he was just borrowing it. Although these two sets of magical equipment were considered extraordinary in the eyes of ordinary people, they were still one level behind in the eyes of players. Thinking about the "Holy Storm" set of small bubble gum and the "Infinite Element Protection" of Canary in the game were supreme, which made countless players crazy. Of course, these two sets of equipment were also the equipment that these two people spent a lot of time and obtained after completing a series of difficult and perverted tasks.

But for them now, some of them are useful.

After the arrival of the Battle Angels Legion, the entire fortress entered a peaceful and peaceful day. At this time, Rhodes finally had time to free up and carefully consider his "upgrading cause". (To be continued...)
