Lord of War

A large-scale architectural complex rose up on the plain.

This architectural complex is composed of about a dozen main buildings, all of which are basically made of solid stone. The tallest building is about seven or eight meters high, in the shape of a fortress, equipped with sentry towers and arrows. Fortifications such as towers. Although the other buildings are only two or three meters high, they occupy a relatively large area. When these buildings are connected together, they are almost the size of a small city.

Moreover, on the periphery, a solid stone city wall was laid, and a guard tower was set up at intervals.

However, this small city has not yet been fully built. From a distance, you can still see countless workers clinging to the city wall like ants, working hard. Their work efficiency and speed are astonishing. The change of each section of the city wall is almost in minutes, and they can clearly see all the changes in the small city.

When Sean came here with Iger, all he had was a look of shock on his face.

Those who are working hard are none other than the magical construction puppets who claim to never tire.

These puppets are a special product left over from the dawn era. Every one hundred puppets is a group unit. As long as the construction blueprints are transmitted, they will immediately start construction work, and they will never stop for 24 hours until the construction of the construction blueprints is completed. until. However, these building puppets are also very precious things. Basically, as long as one of them is damaged, the work efficiency of the entire group unit will be severely impacted, and it may even become unusable.

In the boundaries of the entire Miracle Continent, the only buildings known to be built by magical puppets are the Tonis Fortress.

It is said that a total of thousands of magical building puppets were used at the beginning, and it took more than three years to finally complete the construction.

But after that, those magical building puppets disappeared without a trace as if they had never appeared. Even the mysterious figure who controlled these building puppets also disappeared from everyone's sight. This made many nobles who wanted to attack these building puppets at that time very annoyed-after all, compared with these thousands of building puppets, offending Asuna is not a big deal at all, at least in the eyes of those Lane nobles, as long as Sufficient compensation after the fact will do.

But maybe the mysterious person who helped Asuna build the Tonis Fortress knew the construction of these building puppets, so he scheduled the completion time of the Tonis Fortress at midnight. When it was completely completed later, he took those construction puppets and disappeared from everyone's sight, leaving Asuna and the others with only the completed Tonis Fortress.

This cannot be said to be the cowardice of that mysterious person.

After all, the original purpose of building puppets was to save labor when building cities, not for combat, so these construction puppets could not be used for combat at all. If a battle really broke out, these building puppets would basically have to be destroyed, and it would be impossible to even counterattack.

Sean followed Iger's pace, and he clearly saw the construction speed of the entire small town. Judging from the current situation, the entire small town will probably be completely completed tomorrow afternoon. And this is only the result of investing two groups of construction puppets in two days. Compared with the result of three years in the thousands of construction puppets in Fortress Tonis, this is much easier.

"Almost all the buildings on our floating island are in charge of these building puppets." Seeming the shock in Xiao En's eyes,

There is also a strong sense of pride in Iger's eyes, "Even including the construction of frontline bases when opening up some alien planes, they are all quickly completed by the ability of building puppets."

Sean had heard of the function of building puppets before.

However, it was the first time to witness it with his own eyes like this one—even in the game, Sean had never heard of someone obtaining a group's building puppet, of course, he had heard of it individually. However, a single building puppet is nothing but a little bit of strength to move things.

Sean withdrew his gaze, and then followed Iger into this city with a particularly strong retro atmosphere.

The architectural style of the city is a style that Sean has never seen in reality, but he has seen it in the records of some ancient books. This is a typical style of the dawn era. It is not based on practicality, but mainly on aesthetics. It is only after the Twilight of the Gods that the function of the city wall was developed, which is why the current city wall came into existence. layout building.

In this city, Sean didn't see too many people, and they were basically magical building puppets carrying various building materials along the way. The few people from the floating island that I rarely met showed a wary look towards Xiao En, instead of being curious about new things like the people from the land boundary.

"Please forgive me, the situation of the floating island..."

"I understand." Sean nodded, expressing his understanding, and didn't say anything more.

Although he has been on the floating island for a short time, the people he has come into contact with so far are basically very wary and hostile towards him, and Sean is completely used to this. As long as these people didn't do anything hostile, Sean didn't plan to pay attention to it, even if it was an existence like Piles, Sean didn't plan to hold back.

Soon, under Iger's leadership, Sean came to the fortress in the middle of the small town.

This is a three-story fortress, and there are many people busy in the lobby on the first floor. Judging from their clothing, it is obvious that they are also students from the Floating Saint Academy. When these people saw Iger's arrival, they all stood up and saluted him, but when they saw Sean behind Iger, their expressions also seemed a little astonished, and many of them frowned bluntly, showing a look of disgust .

"Where is Your Excellency Sheila?" Iger asked directly, ignoring the reactions of these people.

"In the conference hall on the second floor." A student replied, "Except for you and Lord Piles, all the vanguard teams have basically come to report." Having said that, the student glanced at Xiao carefully. Well, then lowered his voice and said: "Master Xilaen seems to be very dissatisfied with the troop's exploration information this time."

"Oh?" Iger raised his eyebrows, "What happened?"

"The loss...is a bit heavy." The student whispered, "And it seems that not many people have been dispatched this time. The battle on the Qiufeng Plain is a bit tight, and at least half of the people have been dragged there. "

"What's going on?" Iger frowned, "The battle on the Qiufeng Plain, didn't everything go well when I handed over the theater? How could it be tight? The leader is Somiya, and the credits in the tactics course are second only For Alisa and Levi..."

"I heard that Master Budalais has appeared in the Autumn Maple Plain..."

"Budales!?" Iger froze for a moment, "Are you sure?"

"That's what the outside world is saying now." The student glanced around, saw that many people were already looking sideways, and lowered his voice a little more, "It is said that Lord Suomia has made a few angry outbursts. So the academy Over there, people from other places were transferred to reinforce the Qiufeng Plain, and I don't know the specifics..."

Iger nodded understandingly.

As this student, he is definitely not qualified to participate in high-level meetings, so it is naturally impossible to learn so much.

Iger turned around and greeted Sean, then waved to let the other students leave the free activities first, while he led Sean to the second floor.

"Take me, is it appropriate?" Sean asked.

"There's nothing inappropriate." Iger said lightly, "Sirane once competed with Levi for the first place in the college list, but failed. After that, he rejected the college's external employment, so he was not in the top ten of the college. In the leaderboard, but don't doubt his strength, he is uncrowned just like Piles."

"The Uncrowned?" Sean heard a new term.

"It means having the same strength as the top ten members on the ranking list." Iger explained, "But although His Excellency Sheilan's strength is similar to Levi's, his temper is not very good, so I can probably understand what's going on here now. Why is the atmosphere so bad?"

Having said that, Iger glanced back at the students in the hall on the first floor, and seemed to be able to understand the reason for their gloom.

"I really understand the thinking of you floating island people." Sean shook his head helplessly, "Sirane and Levi are competitors, and then they were defeated by Levi, and Levi and I are friends. ...Now you actually say that Sheila will not be hostile to me?"

"Our people on the floating island are different from those on your land." Iger said lightly, with indescribable pride and pride in his tone.

Of course, Sean couldn't understand what this kind of pride and pride was all about. However, the good competitive relationship among the floating islanders really made it difficult for Xiao En to understand, because let alone in the land boundary, even in the game, or even in his real life in the Earth Federation, such a relationship did not exist. In a good competitive relationship, basically as long as it is competition, it will inevitably be hostile. Even if the winner is determined afterwards, the relationship cannot be restored.

"By the way." Xiao En decided that since he couldn't understand this kind of thinking, he should not understand it at all. Anyway, soldiers came to block him, and water came to cover him. Will his face suddenly become so ugly?"

"It's Budales." Iger glanced at Sean, corrected his statement, and then said, "Lock, have I already told you?"

"Don't you want to say that this Budales is also an existence at the same level as Locke?" Sean was really surprised this time.

"Almost." Iger said, "You should know the partner system of Floating Saint Academy, right?"

"A team of two?"

"En." Iger nodded, "The partner system is very free, allowing all the students of the Floating Holy Academy to form partners on their own. Of course, if they don't agree with each other's personalities or ideas, they can naturally dissolve themselves. ... But this The system was initiated by Budares before it became fully widespread."

"From what you said, it's obvious that this man named Budales is not good at fighting."

"Budales was an active existence more than a hundred years ago." Iger said in a deep voice, "His tactical credits used to be the first in history, as high as 93 points. However, this record has now been Alisa is broken... But if it is really Budales, Somia will definitely not be an opponent. Her tactical credits are only 86, and she is better at active strike tactics in areas behind enemy lines. In terms of large-scale combat and other aspects, Somia can only be said to barely pass the test."

"I can probably imagine the current situation in the Autumn Maple Plain." Sean curled his lips. He felt that if William came to the floating island, he might be able to get higher tactical credits than Alisa. The guy has almost reached the level of a monster in the art of war.

But because of this, Sean was even more unable to understand what kind of monster that Miracle Army God was.

When Iger brought Sean to the door of the conference room on the second floor, he heard a roar from inside the door before he reached out to knock on the door.

"What the hell is Somia doing? She was suppressed to such an extent that all the areas she had snatched back were taken away! ... Well, let's ignore the matter of Somia. After all, she is in charge of the Qiufeng Plain. Let her explain to the meeting hall. But now, tell me! What's the matter with you? You have lost so many people without even finding out the identity of the enemy, and you can't find any information. Are you really paying attention?"

Sean finally understood what Iger said about Sheilan's bad temper. This roar was particularly shocking, and it seemed that the ability of the sanctuary was used. Even Xiao En felt the roaring and stinging in his ears when he heard it, let alone those unlucky ones who directly faced Sheilan.

Iger sighed softly, then reached out and knocked on the door.

"Who is it!?" In the conference room inside the door, the fierce scolding Sheilan didn't stop, but continued to yell for a while before opening his mouth.

"It's me, Iger." Iger replied.

"Get out!" Sheilan's anger didn't seem to decrease, but instead increased, "I hope you can bring me good news."

Iger pushed open the door of the conference room, glanced at the several companions in the conference room who were hanging their heads in pain, and then glanced at Xi Laen, who was dressed in military uniform, with an angry face, and then said: "Xi Lai Your Excellency Lahn, I don't know if the news I brought is good news. But I do already know who our opponent is this time."

"who?"

"Lock." Iger took a deep breath, and then said with an aura as if he was dying generously, "Lock of the Star World." (To be continued.
