Fierce Battle on the Novro Continent

"Do you like this lighthouse?" Nian Hao pointed to the tall tower outside the window and asked the goblin elder in front of him.

The goblin elder rubbed his green hands together, not knowing how to answer. Because he understands that this tower has been established for thousands of years and has become the image of the holy city. No one can criticize themselves.

"To be honest, I am responsible for everything." Nian Hao took out the cigarette case from his pocket, lit a cigarette for himself, and stared at the goblin elder.

"The appearance is ugly, and the structure is rubbish." After hearing this, the goblin elder immediately began to criticize the shape and structure of the lighthouse: "If the best materials were not used to make up for the shortcomings every year, this lighthouse would have collapsed long ago. .”

"Are the materials used to repair the lighthouse valuable?"

"Yes, these materials are good, but for a lighthouse with this structure, it is simply a waste. However, it is precisely because of those materials that the lighthouse will not collapse."

"Oh, in that case, just demolish the lighthouse." Nian Hao said.

"Huh?" The goblin elder looked at Nian Hao in confusion.

"Tear down the lighthouse and rebuild another one," Nian Hao said.

The goblin elder took a breath of air and said, "Didn't you ask me to repair the lighthouse?"

"But this lighthouse looks ugly and has a rubbish structure." Nian Hao smiled as he handed a drawing to the goblin elder.

The goblin elder took the drawing and looked at it, his face instantly solidified.

"Don't ask any more questions. This is a new tower building drawing. It is a mixture of top architectural ideas from another world, and many of the structures are spliced ​​with mortise and tenon structures from the Chinese country in the other world." Nian Ha said with a smile. With.

This drawing was drawn by an architect who accidentally traveled from Earth last month. Nian Hao once ordered Maria to issue a recruitment mission: to find construction experts to rebuild the residential areas outside the Holy City. The architect signed up at that time, and after Lane learned of his skills, he immediately signed up for Nian Hao. Afterwards, under Nian Hao's inducement, the architect spent just one night improving a tower building with a height of 200 meters based on the drawings he had previously designed with people on Earth.

When the goblin elder saw this drawing, his whole face was full of surprise. He did not expect that the architectural concepts of the other world could be so superb. What is even more surprising is the complexity and solidity of the Chinese mortise and tenon structure. Before this, the goblin elder had always wanted to get a complete picture of the mortise and tenon structure, because this structure is the most perfect form in architecture.

However, due to the cultural differences between the other world and the earth, his understanding of the mortise and tenon structure is limited to some sporadic rumors and vague images. But now, this drawing was completely displayed in front of him, making him instantly have deep respect for Nian Hao's decision-making.

"Sir, if there are enough materials to build this new tower, I believe it will be more spectacular and stronger than the current lighthouse." The goblin elder couldn't help but ask.

Nian Hao smiled and nodded: "This is inevitable, but I need to add a magic circle to the building. I want this tower to become an offensive and defensive building."

The goblin elder took a deep breath, carefully took the drawing, and said solemnly: "Sir, I understand. I will immediately prepare to dismantle the old lighthouse, and after studying the drawing thoroughly in the shortest possible time, I will start Build this new tower.”

Nian Hao smiled and patted the goblin elder on the shoulder and said, "Okay, I believe in your ability, just go ahead and do it. If you have any difficulties, you can come to me directly."

The goblin elder nodded vigorously, clenched his hands into fists, and his eyes shone with determination.

But now there is still a question, the magic circle.

Nian Hao saw his question from the face of the goblin elder and immediately answered: "I will let Amal improve this drawing with you. He is an elf. Although he is not good at magic, he is familiar with the structure of the magic circle. There is still a lot of knowledge.”

Hearing what Nian Hao said, the goblin elder immediately nodded slightly in agreement and said, "With Lord Amal joining us, I think this new building will be more majestic than the lighthouse."

As soon as he finished speaking, there were bursts of screams outside the window. The goblin elder couldn't help but stand on tiptoes and turned his head sideways to try to find the source of the sound.

"Go to the window and take a look." Nian Hao pointed to the window.

The goblin elder frowned and walked to the window in a few steps, because the goblin race is very short, usually only about 1.2 meters tall. The goblin elder was only one meter tall. When he came to the window, he found that his head just reached the window eaves, so he had to pull the table next to him, jumped up, and saw the window.

The window faced the huge square, and those screams came from the square.

The originally bustling crowd in the square had been cleared away and replaced by hundreds of people who were tightly bound and kneeling on the ground, unable to move. Behind them, a row of fully armed Tianqin soldiers stood majestically, like statues.

The square was surrounded by frightened and curious people, who were talking and whispering about the crimes committed by the arrested people. Suddenly, a Tianqin soldier walked forward with firm steps, holding a sharp sword tightly in his hand. His eyes were cold and ruthless, without any hesitation.

With the flash of sword light, the soldiers began to carry out cruel punishments. They did not hesitate to behead the man kneeling at the front. Blood spurted out, and the square was instantly filled with an aura of terror. The surrounding people were so frightened that they screamed and froze on the spot. However, the Tianqin soldiers seemed to be immersed in the bloody killings without any scruples. This scene turned the originally bustling square into a mess, with screams and cries intertwined, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

"These are people who are unwilling to participate in the national mercenary system." Nian Hao explained: "So I killed them all."

The goblin elder turned around, and the screams came again. It was the excitement after those Tianqin soldiers chopped off the heads again.

"There's no need to be so cruel." The goblin elder was stunned and didn't know how to speak.

"Yes." Nian Hao said: "Amal provided me with a blood magic. These human lives and the blood on the ground will be the layout materials for the magic circle on the new tower."

After Nian Hao dropped the cigarette in his hand, he added: "So, I plan to name the new tower - Blood Tower."
