Chapter 694: Spend Gold to Become Stronger (8000)

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The violent shock made the huge mountain tremble.

The unreachable sharp peak collapsed after the violent explosion.

The visual impact of the mountain collapse made all the adventurers swallow their saliva.

This unspeakable excitement made almost all the adventurers very excited.

What made everyone even more unbelievable was that the large-scale machinery of the Bay Territory climbed up the mountain one after another.

Under everyone's gaze, they made magic cement from the broken stones.

Through the ditch from the peak to the foot of the mountain, the magic cement was transported on a large scale.

These magic cements were soon sent to the dump trucks and transport trucks produced by the Bay Territory and supplied to the camps and outposts established by the adventurers.

The foundation was solid and thick.

Modeling and filling in the water.

Leveling the ground and piling it up.

Widening and raising the city wall.

Casting houses and building in batches.

The defense line at the foot of the mountain was being built up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Lola looked at the camps and bunkers that were rising from the ground, and couldn't help feeling a little bit of a toothache.

Although she knew that the construction ability of the Gulf Territory was strong.

But she never thought that it could be so strong.

If it weren't for the huge ambition of the Gulf Territory to build a giant fortress.

Lola even doubted that the Gulf Territory could build a standard large city within a day.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Large chunks of boulders were dug up by the huge excavator bucket and put into the large mixer.

They were crushed in a few seconds, and after multiple processes, they were ground into crushed stone powder.

Finally, they were sent to the magic cement manufacturing center of the large mechanical road bully.

Several large machines cooperated tacitly to flatten the piled rocks on the mountain, and then "cut" them down layer by layer.

The originally sharp mountain top gradually appeared large areas of flat land.

The adventurers couldn't figure out the Bay Lord's plan for the time being, and they all started discussing it eagerly.

"Are they going to build a complex on the top of the mountain? To enclose this valley?"

"I don't think so. I suspect that the Bay Lord might flatten the entire valley..."

"That shouldn't be possible. Such a large valley is surrounded by mountains!"

"I think it's very likely. This mountain is only three or four hundred meters high at most. The Bay Lord "cuts" it a few meters a day, and sooner or later it will be flattened."

"Why flatten it? At most, it will make the slope steeper and create a better defensive terrain."

"If you ask me, the Bay Lord is likely to hollow out these mountains and build various factories inside... …”

“This should be a fantasy. It’s too troublesome to build a factory in it…”

“It’s definitely troublesome for us, but it shouldn’t be a big problem for the dog-headed people, gnolls and gray dwarves in the Gulf Territory.”

“Hey, you know what, I’ve seen the dog-headed people team…”

“Fuck? Did I guess it right?”

“Don’t worry about it for now, go to the temporary adventurer hall and settle our achievements and rewards for these days.”

“Don’t worry about this, I’ve seen the carriages that transport supplies in the Gulf Territory.”

“…”

In the adventurers’ discussions of different styles.

Lola looked at the golem trains coming and going.

Looking at the many supplies and personnel put down on it, bursts of amazement emerged in his heart.

Just one hour after the opening of the road.

More than 5,000 soldiers, more than 2,000 staff, and more than 10,000 adventurers were sent over.

A hundred containers of supplies are more than 2,000 tons.

This mobilization ability and material delivery ability.

Much stronger than the Kingdom of Cole Elf!

Lola saw the dragon hunting crossbow, automatic crossbow turret, and the cannon with dark gaps on the golem train.

She realized for the first time that this thing could play such a big role in the battle.

This made Lola gain a lot, but also a headache.

She didn't know which weapons and equipment, or mechanical creations and facilities of the Gulf Territory.

What role would they play in the battle?

How much threat would they pose to the Kingdom of Cole Elf?

It seemed that anything in the hands of the Gulf Territory could play a very threatening role.

Temporarily putting aside the thoughts in her heart, Lola was too lazy to think about those annoying things, and decisively chose to integrate into the adventurers and devote herself to the construction of the Krypton Fortress.

A considerable number of the Gulf Territory staff who arrived at the valley went directly into the valley.

They were under the curious gaze of the adventurers.

In the center of the valley, a large hole was dug, and engineering machinery and dog-headed men were sent to dig deep.

The adventurers didn't take it seriously, and naturally thought that the Gulf Territory had discovered the minerals in the Krypton Valley and was ready to dig them up.

The adventurers didn't know how much impact the krypton mines would have on them.

In addition to mining and city building, the Gulf Territory was also rapidly advancing other arrangements.

Matthew, who attached great importance to this development, personally arrived at the command center with Yaya.

He arranged for Angela to reorganize and deal with other soldiers being trained by the Gulf Territory.

After they have undergone intensive training and rest.

They will be quickly arranged to prepare to deal with the blood-raging trolls and mechanical demiplanes of Zul'Farrak.

Time waits for no one!

After receiving instructions from Matthew, Elliot, Jifan, Alice, Gatel, Feili and other senior commanders were discussing how to investigate the situation of the Blood Rage Trolls.

Feili looked through the information and arranged the elites of the inspection team to handle it simultaneously. She also did not forget to discuss with everyone and said:

"The adventurer exploration mission has been arranged. Currently, 14 high-level adventurer teams have accepted the mission."

"In about 3 days, we will have preliminary basic information."

The reason why it takes three days.

Naturally, it is because of the danger in the depths of the Dark Forest, as well as the nearly one million warriors of the Blood Rage Trolls and more ordinary trolls.

Alice did not speak, and continued to look through the various performances of the adventure team.

"Reconnaissance and harassment can be left to the adventurers."

"Attacking Zul'Farrak and dealing with the elite of the Blood Rage Trolls is the task of our First Division."

Elliot took the initiative to take over the topic and stated Matthew's purpose very straightforwardly.

The more you know about the Blood Rage Trolls, the more you understand.

This barbaric and uncivilized opponent is no match for the Bay Territory at all.

It is certainly troublesome to deal with their huge army and number.

But as long as they don't make mistakes, the combat troops of the Gulf Territory will most likely win.

The problem facing the Gulf Territory is not to defeat the army of the Blood Rage Trolls.

It is how to use as few Gulf Territory soldiers and combat troops as possible to capture Zul'Farrak, where millions of trolls live.

Siege warfare is a relatively rare thing for the Gulf Territory army.

After all, most of the wars experienced by the Gulf Territory's teams rely on defense as the core first, and then conduct defensive counterattacks.

They use powerful long-range weapons, well-trained soldiers, solid walls and defense lines.

To achieve the purpose of reducing casualties, wearing down the enemy's spirit, and reducing the number of elite enemy combat forces.

Finally, they take the initiative to attack and win.

At present, the Gulf Territory has accumulated 300,000 troops that have been transformed and strengthened.

They can already free up their hands to attack the enemy.

However, this is different from defensive warfare and is another different combat method.

There are naturally more things to consider.

After all, the enemies of the Gulf Territory are not just the trolls in front of them.

There may be an orc army.

The Kingdom of Kor Elf, which is leading this battle!

They are all opponents that must be extremely vigilant.

If it is just for the sake of winning.

The Gulf Territory mobilized a large army and used thousands of artillery to bombard the Blood Rage Trolls and Zul'Farrak.

Maybe, the opponent's resistance can be destroyed.

However, doing so is too risky.

The Kingdom of Kor Elf, which has been eyeing it covetously, is very likely to attack the elite army gathered by the Gulf Territory.

The elite troops of the Gulf Territory are indeed strong, and their combat power is even more outstanding.

But they are currently unable to resist the large-scale legendary spells from the legendary spellcasters of the Kingdom of Kor Elf!

Once the elite troops of the Gulf Territory gather too much.

The Archmage of the Kor Elf will use a spell bombardment.

The loss of tens of thousands of elites or even the annihilation of the entire army.

It will definitely make the entire Gulf Territory heartbroken.

What follows is bound to be a huge turmoil.

This will stop the rapid development of the Gulf Territory.

The Gulf Territory's invincible and unstoppable winning streak will also be interrupted.

It may even cause widespread unrest among adventurers.

Without the army as a deterrent, the powerful and numerous adventurers will not be so obedient.

Combined with the means of the Kingdom of Kor Elf, the adventurers who have now become the blade of the development and expansion of the Gulf Territory may become the source of chaos.

Seizing the opportunity, the Kingdom of Kor Elf will also use various means to interfere with the development of the Gulf Territory.

Carry out continuous suppression.

Restart siege or blockade.

Even send more legendary spellcasters to take action.

The Gulf Territory, which is of amazing value, may become the target of many forces and kingdoms.

It is precisely because there are too many factors to consider.

The army and battle process of the Gulf Territory will achieve a more amazing effect.

If the Gulf Territory can rely on a small number of troops, it can solve the army of bloody trolls and take down Zul'Farrak.

The fear of the Kingdom of Kor Elf will certainly be deeper, but the possibility of them taking direct action will be greatly reduced.

After all, the number of legendary spellcasters is small.

Other territories and forces are not without them.

The Kingdom of Kor Elf used legendary spellcasters in defiance of the world.

The Netheril Empire will definitely respond.

At this critical juncture of the Kor Elves' implementation plan, they have a considerable success rate and will definitely not make trouble.

After all, the destructive power of the floating city of the Netheril Empire is indeed strong.

The Great Arcanist Iolum, who was regarded as a thorn in the eye of the Kingdom of Kor Elf, is still alive!

Without sufficient benefits and gains, the Kingdom of Kor Elf is naturally unwilling to tear its face.

The 1st Division has a total of 18,000 people, 15,000 combat personnel, and 3,000 logistics troops.

The number is just right and the strength is also very strong.

The 1st Division has always been regarded as a model for the entire army. It has participated in almost all large-scale wars in the Gulf Territory and has undertaken the most difficult and dangerous combat missions.

Including attacking the Cole Elf army!

Therefore, they not only have to deal with the trolls, but also guard against, or even defeat, possible back-ups from the Cole Elf Kingdom!

Ji Fan touched his smooth chin and asked a more critical question:

"With the combat capabilities of the 1st Division, how many troll warrior attacks can it withstand at the same time?"

"If we fight in separate units, will our combat capabilities be compromised?"

Gartel recalled the extraordinary trolls he had fought against before, and said in a positive tone:

"Except for a few troll elites, no other troll warriors can pose a threat to the established combat troops of the 1st Division."

"After the adaptive training in the Dark Forest, I feel that we can advance in a dispersed manner."

Alice, who understood the willingness of many adventurers to fight as a team, continued without thinking:

"The adventurer combat troops can also undertake some frontal tasks."

"They have very rich experience in delaying and blocking enemy forces."

Others also spoke one after another, expressing their opinions concisely.

Most of the senior commanders in the command center have basic ideas for the next operation.

To put it simply, it is to slowly advance and fight while vigorously guarding against the enemy.

After all, a lot of opponent information can only be understood after actually fighting against them.

But the interesting thing is that the development of things often gives everyone inexplicable surprises.

The blood-rage troll "sees through" the hesitation and difficulties of the Gulf Territory.

Early morning on the second day.

There was news from adventurer scouts that the blood-rage troll army was dispatched to attack the Krypton Gold Fortress.

"The number of attacking trolls is about 500,000, and the main force is 300,000. They are coming from the front and are expected to arrive in two days."

"The remaining 200,000 trolls were divided into hundreds of squads and surrounded them from all directions."

This situation made the commanders of the Gulf Territory dumbfounded.

Fortunately, they are used to seeing big scenes and have quite a lot of experience with such sudden accidents.

Since the trolls are willing to come, the big guys in the Gulf Territory will definitely welcome them with swords and cannons.

"First send out the 1st and 2nd brigades to cooperate with Catachan's elite combat troops and test their combat effectiveness."

The command center immediately made arrangements and issued various combat missions to the adventurers.

Matthew did not take the initiative to intervene, believing in the strength of the Gulf Territory Commander and the 1st Division, and instead entered the underground of the Krypton Gold Mountains.

The kobolds who dug down to a depth of 30 meters have found one of the goals of their trip - krypton gold!

The deep purple krypton gold ore exudes an alluring luster.

It contains about 1% krypton gold and more than 70% high-quality refined iron.

After purification, krypton gold will show a dazzling red-gold color, giving people a dazzling beauty.

Matthew played with the hard ore in his hand, with a little anticipation in his eyes.

Yin Ya, who was following closely behind him, couldn't wait to ask softly:

"Great master, collect ore and transport it back to Bay City, or build a factory here?"

Matthew narrowed his eyes and said without hesitation:

"Of course it is here. Bay City is already attracting enough attention. There must be a place to help share it."

"However, a super teleportation array must also be built here to quickly transfer the processed goods."

"In addition, this place will also become the largest combat puppet manufacturing factory in the Gulf Territory, as well as a fine iron production factory."

These two points are enough to attract the covetousness of most people.

The “Krypton Gold Trend” that is about to unfold will also attract some profound eyes and attention.

News of the upcoming war soon spread in the Krypton Gold Fortress.

While the adventurers collect information and select combat missions, they are also actively preparing for war.

In addition to applying to join the adventurer combat team.

What excites adventurers the most is undoubtedly joining the Gulf Territory’s elite combat unit.

The former has great contribution to combat. Although the battle is boring, it is very safe.

However, in addition to the need to purchase some magic weapons and equipment, most of them only recruit members of the adventure team.

The investment is not small, but the reward is only slightly higher than the effort. You also have to obey orders and accept training.

For lone wolf adventurers who don't want to join a team of adventurers and prefer to act alone, as well as some small adventurer combinations.

Such a combat mission is not very friendly.

They prefer the elite combat teams newly established by the adventurers.

The reason is simple: they have greater autonomy and the rewards are equally rich.

Although the word freedom is simple, it is very important.

However, these adventurers soon discovered.

When the elite combat team selects adventurers, the selection conditions given are very high.

How high is it?

The attack ability, defense ability, and movement ability of an adventurer who is wearing a full set of enchanted equipment, holding a magic weapon in hand, and has reached the peak of high-level strength are all one level higher.

If it is too much higher than the ability of high-level adventurers, there is a high probability that the adventurers will give up.

The threshold for the Gulf Territory to select an elite combat team this time is if it reaches the level of super-level professionals.

Although the threshold is high and the conditions are harsh.

But some adventurers can still reach it.

We also know that the Gulf Territory will never deliberately set up problems.

The adventurers had no idea.

However, this requirement of the Gulf Territory.

It is still far from selecting a super adventurer.

And it is a little bit higher than the high-level peak professionals.

Some talented adventurers can achieve this requirement with their extraordinary talents.

But for the vast majority of adventurers, this set of enchanted equipment and magic weapons is a must.

After coming to the Gulf Territory, I spent a lot of time and completed many tasks to achieve this.

If we were in other places, we might not be able to get such weapons and equipment after we break through to the level of super adventurer.

Is the Gulf Territory really doing this just to select adventurers with outstanding talents?

The quick-thinking adventurers quickly discovered the clues.

The data given by the Gulf Territory is really too subtle.

The Gulf Territory staff who conducted the test waited for about half an hour before revealing the truth to the adventurers who were undergoing the test:

"As long as magic weapons and enchanted equipment are strengthened, any high-level professional can reach this standard."

The adventurers relaxed a little first.

But soon I felt something was wrong again.

Can magic weapons and enchanted equipment be enhanced?

This is indeed possible, but those are all advanced metal smelting methods, or further magical enhancements.

It is not something that adventurers can come into contact with.

At least not what these high-level adventurers can achieve now.

But after staying in the Gulf Territory for a long time, adventurers all know this truth.

"The Gulf Territory will never make things difficult for big guys for no reason..."

The adventurers with clear minds asked the staff directly:

"Where can I go to strengthen my weapons and equipment?"

The staff member who got the question he wanted smiled at the adventurer who asked the question, pointed to the newly established adventurer hall on the other side and said:

"This is a new feature of the Adventurer's Hall."

"Everyone can go there to further strengthen their magic weapons and enchanted armor."

"Of course, such enhancement will be very expensive, and everyone needs to prepare a lot of gold coins and enhancement resources."

After saying this, the staff member took out a bright sign that read:

“Adventurer Hall launches krypton gold enhancement function.”

"Magic equipment, weapons, and props can be enhanced in all directions, with an enhancement effect of 5% to 15%."

"5%~15%?"

We estimate that around 10% will be able to meet the task requirements.

Is this a new benefit for the Gulf Territory?

That's for sure!

Many adventurers who understood the situation immediately rushed to the nearby adventurer hall.

They soon discovered that a new krypton gold-enhanced area had been opened in the Adventurer Hall.

Some adventurers have already lined up here.

It was obvious that these adventurers had faster reaction times.

Laura, who came with the high-level adventurers in the team, carefully observed the situation in the krypton gold-enhanced area.

Above the strengthening area, the price and materials for krypton gold strengthening are clearly given.

Enhancement price list for high-end and below items:

+1 enhancement, all effects increased by 5%.

100 gold coins, ruby ​​× 1, element crystal × 1.

+2 enhancement, all effects increased by 10%.

200 gold coins, ruby ​​x 2, element crystal x 2.

+3 enhancement, all effects increased by 15%.

300 gold coins, ruby ​​x 3, element crystal x 3.

+4 Reinforcement, this feature is not enabled.

+5 reinforcement, this feature is not enabled.

+6 Reinforcement, this feature is not enabled.

The super-level item enhancement function has not been activated.

"Krypton gold enhancement function? Can it have an effect on magic equipment?"

"Each reinforcement increases by 5%? Can it be increased by 15% at this stage?"

"If all are strengthened, wouldn't the effect of weapons and equipment be directly increased by 15%? The improvement of personal strength..."

Unable to help but take a deep breath, Laura, although mentally prepared, was still uneasy about the sudden krypton gold-enhanced function of the Gulf Territory.

She looked at the materials needed for strengthening.

Gold coins, rubies, elemental crystals.

Judging from the price of the previous enhancements, although it is not cheap, it is much more cost-effective than most enchantments.

For low-level adventurers, this price will be relatively expensive.

But for high-level adventurers, it is not an unaffordable price.

Even some middle-level adventurers with wealth and wealth would not be stingy with such enhancements.

Needless to say, gold coins should be the key point used by the Gulf Territory to make profits.

However, Laura very much doubted whether the price in the Gulf Territory was benefiting the adventurers again.

Ruby and elemental crystals are not expensive, costing about 100 gold coins each, and can be purchased at the counter in the enhanced area.

The reason why the Gulf Territory made it so troublesome, instead of directly marking 300, 600, and 900 gold coins, is obviously to give more information.

Laura carefully thought about the purpose of the Gulf Leader's actions, and looked at the adventurers lining up behind, and she had the answer in her heart.

These conditions are not for adventurers.

It is clearly for groups, forces, organizations, and kingdoms that want to cooperate with the Gulf Territory.

"Do these materials have anything to do with reinforcement?"

"Or is the Gulf Territory in urgent need of these materials now?"

Lola frowned, feeling more and more confused.

At this moment, the first adventurer who had completed the enhancement came out happily.

He looked at the shiny weapons and equipment in his hands in disbelief, and felt a layer of light penetrating into the weapons and equipment.

Not only is it very beautiful, but it is also full of power.

This appearance is quite powerful!

"Fuck? Brother, is it really so effective?"

"Won't you know it later?"

"How many times has it been enhanced?"

"Enhance 3 times, so it's safer, maybe you won't be able to queue up later."

"That makes sense. In this case, I don't have enough gold coins. Is there any buddy who can lend me some?"

"I have it, I'll pass the magic watch to you first..."

"It's too troublesome to carry so many gold coins on you..."

"When can the Bay Territory open a bank?"

"With Lord Yaya keeping it for us, it will definitely be very safe."

"Haha, that makes sense..."

"..."

As the adventurers discussed this, they became happier and happier.

They soon figured out the purpose of the Bay Territory doing this.

This is a variety of ways to give everyone benefits!

Compared to everyone's happiness, Lola is paying close attention to the situation in the transformation area.

The faint sound of metal collision and waves of magic power inside all indicate that the enhancement is indeed taking place inside.

Based on what Lola has learned so far.

The Gulf Territory has at least tens of thousands of high-level adventurers and dozens or hundreds of adventurer halls.

If they all have this enhancement ability, it means that the technical difficulty of this enhancement is not great.

Otherwise, even if the Gulf Territory can gather so many talents, it will not be wasted on this kind of work.

Since there are no major requirements in terms of technology, it should be a problem of materials and craftsmanship.

If it is the latter, it is still easy to deal with. As long as the Cole Elf Kingdom is willing to pay the price, it will be exchanged sooner or later.

But if it is the former, Lola suspects that the Gulf Territory itself is not enough, and basically will not release it.

But new doubts soon emerged.

Why did the Gulf Territory choose this time point? Did it choose this mission? Did it choose this place?

Could it be that the enhanced materials were excavated here?

Why didn't the Gulf Territory keep it secret?

Feeling that there were more and more problems, Lola couldn't help scratching her head.

Before she could figure it out, the team had already reached her.

"So fast?"

Lola suppressed her surprise and subconsciously took out the armor-piercing explosive crossbow she bought in the Bay Territory.

The staff was a half-elf with outstanding appearance. She looked at Lola's pointed ears in surprise, and asked kindly after taking it:

"How many times do you plan to strengthen this weapon?"

"The success rate of the first three times is 100%!"

Lola, who was thinking a lot, nodded quickly and chose to strengthen +3. By the way, she also took out weapons and equipment in other parts.

These weapons and equipment she strengthened will not be used for transportation and trading. Naturally, someone will replace this step.

She just wants to feel the effect of krypton gold strengthening as soon as possible and issue warnings and intelligence as quickly as possible.

Half an hour later.

Lola checked the conditions of all weapons and equipment, and immediately evaluated and recorded them in an all-round way.

"Armor +3 Enhancement: Material strength increased by 16.8%, toughness increased by 15.4%, hardness increased by 15.7%, enchantment effect increased by 16.3%, and comprehensive improvement by 32.5%."

"This data is the average data after all armors are tested, and more data is needed to support it."

"Weapon +3 Enhancement: Sharpness increased by 22%, toughness increased by 16.7%, hardness increased by 18.1%, strength increased by 15.2%, enchantment effect increased by 15.7%, and comprehensive improvement by 35.%."

"This data is individual data..."

"The Bay Leader is likely to have mastered some special materials and technologies."

"Special materials are more likely, and we need to understand them as soon as possible."

Lola, who was quite exhausted, couldn't help rubbing her eyebrows and sent this information to the men in the Bay City.

She always had a suspicion that the Bay Leader must have a special purpose for doing this.

"Ding, the mission time has arrived, please go to the designated area as soon as possible."

The crisp mission prompt suddenly came into Lola's ears.

She suddenly realized that the mission was about to begin.

She hurriedly took several teammates she had recruited and rushed to the designated mission gathering place.

Along the way, Lola was somewhat surprised to find that almost all the adventurers had accepted the krypton gold enhancement.

The strength of the Bay Territory has ushered in another leap-forward improvement.

Matthew, who had collected a lot of data, looked through the more detailed data in Lola's hands, turned his head to the excited Yaya, and said helplessly:

"You can't blindly carry out krypton gold, you have to proceed step by step!"

Yaya pretended not to hear the deep meaning, just smiled and blinked, nodded and said along with Matthew's words:

"Yes, all the improvement experiments of Yaya No. 1 have been temporarily stopped, and only the existing structures and components have been strengthened."

"Hehehe, the success rate of enhancement before +6 is basically 100%, so after +6, will it drop?"

Regarding Yaya's impulse to krypton gold, Matthew shrugged and said:

"There's no rush for this. Krypton gold and soul fragments are enough before +6. Subsequent enhancements require a special and rare material."

After hearing this, Yaya was reluctant to give up, and then closed her eyes.

It was obvious that she was controlling the clone and went straight to the Catachan demiplane.

Elliot and Jifan, who were standing next to her, looked at the translucent and shining Thunder Magic Armor with surprise, and couldn't help but carefully observe its performance and data.

Annie, with a slightly serious expression, gently moved her body, couldn't help but let out a long breath, and said with a little excitement:

"It's time to give the Cole Elf a good show!"
