Steampunk City [Infrastructure]

Autumn is here.

Luo Zhan's rice field also started a bumper harvest.

The yellow grains were dried along the cement road, turning the white jade-like cement road into a yellow river, like a golden belt surrounding the entire city.

This is a bumper year.

The residents of City of Glory, who were originally worried that more and more people gathered in this area and that it was becoming more and more difficult to obtain food, suddenly found that they would not starve to death even if they did not go out to hunt.

Survival has always been the most difficult problem that the tribe needs to face. Even the ancient tribe is afraid to face powerful beasts when they go hunting, especially those huge beasts. The hunting team can only run away when they encounter them.

The harvest of each hunting is unstable and even casualties often occur. This is a common thing, so the fundamental problem of rice harvest, which directly affects the survival of the tribe, makes every resident of Glory City happy.

They really felt the great changes in their lives. The living environment is so perfect that they can crack their mouths and laugh in their dreams, and now they have food to survive. People are the most industrious.

A feeling called satisfaction arises spontaneously in my heart, and I can't help but look up at the location of Li's castle. What is the reason for all these changes?

Some people may say that it is because they occupied the ruins of their ancestors and built their own city of hope just like the Eastern Territory.

But they knew in their hearts that these changes were not only because of this, and even this reason was not the main reason. They could still remember the jokes they made when they first came here to build their own clan.

It can be said that without the Li people, there would be no present situation.

The child is holding a tool called a rake to push the rice away from the concrete road, exposing the concrete road, letting the sun scald the road, and then pushing the rice up, which can make the rice dry faster.

The sun in the sky is hot, because their small foreheads are covered with sweat due to hard work, but it doesn’t matter at all, wipe the sweat off their foreheads with their hands, and continue to work, they like this feeling now, it’s all over the floor Precious food, each and every one is planted by themselves with sweat.

The grown-ups, on the other hand, use a tool called a bellows to blow the sun-dried millet clean, and then let people carry them into the warehouse in large baskets. Their warehouses are full of large pottery vats. Every pottery jar is filled with such rice.

It is really gratifying to see, the little patriarch of the Li nationality said that as long as the rice is stored well, the rice can even be preserved for ten or twenty years, which means that even if there is any natural disaster, they don’t have to worry about running out of food in an instant like before. .

This is called grain storage, which can store grain for a very long time.

Of course, there are some accidents, and it seems wrong to say accidents, that is, the chicks and ducklings hatched from various ethnic groups, since they started to dry the rice, they began to change their ways to grab food. Peck vigorously.

I don't eat much, but it hurts to look at it, because usually the feeding of these chickens and ducklings only needs the people of the psychic ancient tribe to call back some insects from the prairie, and there is no need to waste food at all.

There may not be many small bugs in the big grass, but there are indeed a lot of tree fleas in the jungle, so there is no need to waste food.

They are still figuring out what these chicks and ducklings are, and they can't do anything about them.

So I can often see some children running angrily towards the cement road with a pole, chasing away chickens and ducks that slipped up inadvertently.

This is the life that is everywhere in the City of Glory now.

Ordinary and warm, but it is extremely difficult to get in this wild place, so the residents of City of Glory are very different from the people outside. They always have satisfied smiles. How could it be possible to laugh when fierce beasts were fighting.

Life may seem simple, but it is a life of luxury they only dream of.

The salmon was walking back against a rake, wiping the sweat from his forehead as he walked. The weather has become hotter recently.

When they came back, many people gathered in their castle, because today Luo Zhan was teaching everyone how to use stone nests to shell rice, and how to cook the shelled rice into fragrant and delicious rice.

Those who come to study are all wise men of various races, and after they have learned it, they will go back and teach their clansmen.

Luo Zhan cooked two big pots of rice today, one pot of porridge and one pot of dry rice, which is the most practical way to cook rice.

The sticky rice porridge was so clean that there was no trace of variegated rice, just like the pearl particles of white jade, exuding the alluring aroma of food.

The salmon quickly put down the rake and ran over. Just smelling the food, his little belly growled in disbelief. He happened to help feed these wise men, and then filled a big bowl full for himself. .

If you say you know how to live, he, Little Salmon, won't give in too much.

Luo Zhan said, "Rice is eaten with meat. The taste is the best. Today, because there are too many people, no meat is prepared. Let's try the rice first."

When the fragrant rice enters the mouth, everyone's mouth will be conquered immediately.

In fact, even if it is a bit unpalatable, everyone will be very satisfied. No one understands the preciousness of food.

Whether it is taste, satiety, or the appearance of white jade, it immediately conquered everyone, and it can indeed be used as a staple food.

A few of these wise men once ate the rice provided by Luo Zhan, and it was the same time that they persuaded all the tribes to grow rice together.

But most wise men tasted it for the first time.

Thinking of their bumper harvest this year, their eyes are actually a little hazy.

This solves their long-standing custom of relying on the jungle for food, but the jungle is full of unknowns, and there are too many variables. No one knows whether they will be able to hunt for enough food in the next moment. This is what a tribe with a large population fears most. A sudden turn of events.

So these wise men naturally thought of the benefits and importance of this kind of food that can be obtained by planting.

Luo Zhan also sighed, "Our days will get better and better in the future."

In my mind, I couldn't help but think of how he and Salmon survived the difficult period before.

The little clever salmon smiled and said in a low voice, "I'll go back and fry a little fried pork, and I can come back and eat it directly after the little patriarch finishes teaching them."

Today's rice is a bit overcooked. He wants to eat a few more bowls today. After eating, he will go outside to bask in the sun like a kitten. This day is so comfortable.

Luo Zhan smiled, and tapped Salmon on the forehead, this little witty ghost.

There was a cheerful atmosphere at the scene, and everyone saw the hope of a better life.

Luo Zhan was about to speak, but suddenly...

"Ugh..."

Ripping screams came from all directions.

The sound was very piercing, one sound higher than the other, as if it could pierce a person's eardrum.

Screaming sounds penetrated the entire city.

Luo Zhan raised his head abruptly, and the patrollers of the ancient Tongque clan were flying rapidly in the sky. They were opening their mouths wide, using their unique high-decibel voices to spread their screams to every place in the city.

Luo Yan's pupils shrank, and he quickly looked at the salmon, "Run."

The salmon glanced at the delicious rice before he had time to take a bite. His little hands were clenched tightly. As soon as he gritted his teeth, he turned around and ran in the direction of the Grand Canyon. This was the result of their recent training. The warning voice of the ancient tribe, children like them must run to the Grand Canyon to hide, so as not to cause trouble for the adults.

The earth is the best magic barrier, as long as the ground is thick enough, no amount of powerful spells can penetrate it, and their Grand Canyon just happens to be such a place.

The faces of the wise men also changed, but they were not in a panic. They had been preparing for this day for three months, and it could be said that they had countermeasures for anything that might happen.

Luo Zhan also took a look at the cooked rice. I'm afraid I won't be able to eat it today, and I may not have time to eat it in a short time. It's a pity.

He summoned the snake mother who was basking in the sun on the castle, turned over and climbed up, and then walked towards the city wall.

Just approaching the inner wall, you can see warriors standing on the backs of their fierce beasts, holding weapons, waiting in formation.

Rows of warriors holding bows and arrows were already standing on the city wall, and the ancient Tongque tribe only gave a warning, and all tribes were already ready for battle.

They are not always on guard against this day.

To be honest, none of them want to usher in such a day when their lives are getting better and better, but they also know that if they don't teach Dong Yu a lesson that they will never forget, they will not be able to live a stable life. On tenterhooks.

Since it is unavoidable, let this storm finally determine the outcome.

Luo Zhan stepped on the city wall, and the heroes of the land and the ancient tribes were already waiting.

Luo Zhan asked, "Are you ready?"

With a resolute expression on his face, he held his somewhat exaggerated giant sword holy weapon in his broad hands, "Today, the Eastern Territory will pay the price for their arrogance."

The heroes of all lands also hold their weapons tightly. After being bullied by the Eastern Region for so long, everyone is angry in their hearts.

The wild nature of their characters even made them look forward to such a battle to solve all their problems.

Luo Zhan looked out of the city.

That is the ocean of light, the ocean of light made up of rings of mana.

Like an erupting tsunami, it is advancing towards the City of Glory.

On the prairie, there are all the troops from the Eastern Region. They stand on the backs of fierce beasts, densely packed, and even give people a feeling that there is no end in sight.

This is the most primitive and savage battlefield, the ground trembles under their footsteps, and the strong wind on the prairie seems to be extremely fierce.

"Hoohoho..."

It is the uniform roar of the army, and the sound alone seems to be able to overthrow everything in front of them.

Even the sci-fi movies that Luo Yan had seen could not be used to describe the formation in front of him.

The roar came with endless momentum, which made people feel breathless.

Luo Zhan had two rings of mana anyway, but he felt that his hands and feet were so suppressed that he couldn't move, let alone fight against it.

The opponent did not use deterrent illusions, but the momentum alone achieved such an effect. I have to say that Dongyu came here with the determination to win this time.

In their hearts, the three-month delay of the war is their shame. A small Northern Wilderness dares to block their footsteps. They have long thought of venting their anger for the past three months like today.

Fortunately, when Luo Zhan's body began to stiffen, on Luo Zhan's side, the light of the ring of mantra also shone.

It was so bright that the entire City of Glory was comparable to the scorching sun in the sky.

This is an imposing confrontation.

Luo Zhan's ring of mantra unfolded involuntarily, as if he was one with the City of Glory.

The war is very direct, the strong survive and the weak perish, which is showing Luo the essence of this world.

The wind is getting stronger.

I don't know if it was the strong wind that existed on the prairie, or the storm brought by the crazy attack of the army in the Eastern Region.

The sound was also louder, the most primitive roar shocked the world, it seemed that only the sound of war was left in the world.

The army of the Eastern Region didn't stop at all, just attacked the city, like black and stormy waves crashing on the shore. Looking from the city wall, the dense crowd and fierce beasts seemed to fill the entire vast and boundless prairie.

The one guarding the first checkpoint is the Xietong Ancient Clan.

Rows of scarlet vertical eyes lined up in a neat row, standing in front of the city wall.

These eyes face the unstoppable and surging army.

The patterns on the eyes light up one by one, as if charging.

Then there was a "boom" sound.

A continuous laser beam shot out.

From the city wall, the scene is extremely spectacular.

The light beams formed a wall of light that pushed towards the opponent, not even leaving a gap for the rushing army to dodge.

The light beam wall pushed forward, and those tall weeds on the prairie instantly turned into dust.

It is said that the Xietong ancient clan is the ancient clan with the strongest attack power in the Northern Wilderness, which can be seen now.

However, the army rushing over in a black crowd showed no sign of retreating in the face of such a spell.

A tidy step, a heavy step that advances unquestionably.

The walls of the beam are fast.

"boom."

Only a roar of the earth was heard.

It was the Xietong Ancient Clan's spell that collided with the advancing army in the Eastern Region.

It seemed that there was only the violent impact and roar in the world.

Luo Zhan had seen the appearance of negative chi cutting the rock wall of a cave before, but it was still negative chi that did not try his best. One can imagine how powerful the spells of the Xietong ancient clan are.

But Luo Zhan was stunned for a moment, because the footsteps of the advancing army did not stop, and even got closer.

When he got closer and could see a little more clearly, Luo Zhan's eyes couldn't help shrinking.

I saw that in the front row of the army of the Eastern Territory, a row of fierce warriors stood neatly. Each of them held a huge bronze shield that was twice or three times as tall as a human.

The shields joined together to resist the laser and moved forward, protecting the army behind them under the huge shield wall.

They only need to hold bronze shields and let the beasts under their feet lead them forward.

The laser wall of the Xietong ancient tribe hit their bronze wall, and deep tears appeared on some shields.

Some shields were torn to shreds abruptly.

The laser was weakened a bit, and then continued to push back, reaching the second shield again.

Luo Zhan didn't even know how many shield walls there were in the Eastern Territory.

All I know is that the warrior holding the shield in front has fallen, and the bronze shield wall continues behind.

No one stayed, so they stepped on the corpses of the clansmen in front and continued to move forward.

In the face of war, life seems to have no meaning.

Luo Zhan's face turned pale, and he couldn't help but look at the negative, because judging from the situation in front of him, Dongyu should have reserved strength in his last appearance, such as this bronze shield, which didn't appear last time.

He didn't even blink his eyes.

It was impossible for Luo Zhan to ask questions at this time, so he could only continue reading with a strained heart.

At this time, some changes did take place on the battlefield.

Those warriors holding huge shields fell down quite a few for no reason, obviously the spells of the ancient Xietong clan didn't reach their positions.

Taking a closer look, under Luo Zhan's city wall, there is a group of cold-faced clansmen holding bone knives, stabbing his chest and wrists mercilessly.

The moment they stabbed them down, those Eastern Region warriors holding giant shields also had identical wounds on their wrists and chests.

They are people from the Ancient Blood Clan, and they are helping to break down the opponent's shield wall.

The war had just begun, and the tragic atmosphere instantly filled the entire battlefield.
