Chapter 10 Building a Log House
Thousands of years ago.
The Forgotten Swamp was not a swamp.
The Dark Forest in the distance was not called the Dark Forest.
These areas were once the ruling territory of the Elf Empire.
Especially the Forgotten Swamp, which is the core territory of the Elf Empire.
Where you fall, you should get up from there.
In addition, many areas of the Dark Continent have been occupied by evil and dark creatures, such as the Dark Forest, which has now become the territory of evil races such as the Night Elves and the Cyclops.
In addition, in those areas, the power of demons is also intertwined.
Even in the West Sea and the Arctic Ice Region, you can see the figure of demons.
Relatively speaking, the Forgotten Swamp is safer.
Although there are still many evil and dark creatures living here, at least demons rarely appear... This is what the old tree told Lin Yi.
Therefore, this place is very suitable for building his base camp.
The power of the demons is extremely terrifying.
The holy angels have been defeated.
Before he has enough power, Lin Yi does not want to be targeted by the demons.
…
"You can go out of the square tonight."
As his strength increased, Lin Yi became bolder.
He said to the elves under his command: "You each form several teams to hunt the undead creatures that appear near the square. Remember to take turns to rest and restore the consumed magic power."
The night is the world of evil and dark creatures.
At night, a large number of undead will appear in the ruins, which is difficult to see during the day, at least in the inner city ruins.
Hunting monsters during the day, you have to look around.
At night, as long as you make some noise, you can attract a large number of undead creatures.
As long as you are careful, you will definitely get a lot.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The elves saluted respectfully.
After dinner, they gathered into teams and walked into the darkness outside the square.
About forty elves stayed.
This was Lin Yi's order.
Under his command, these elves began to build wooden houses in the square.
The elves also helped.
They used their meager magic power to help the elves at work.
Today, during the day, the elves collected a large amount of wood in the ruins, and it was no problem to build dozens of wooden houses at one time.
Tomorrow, more elves will join the work of resource collection.
The wood will be in constant supply.
Lin Yi also asked the system if he could use the power of the system to build wooden houses.
Similar to building the Tree of Life and the Ancient Tree of War.
Pay some energy crystals and the construction will be completed in an instant.
This is very convenient.
However, the system gave a negative answer. It said that it only provides the construction and upgrade of [Special Territory Buildings]. Ordinary buildings such as wooden houses need to be solved by the lord himself.
There is no way, Lin Yi can only do it himself.
Fortunately, the elves under his command are all professionals with magic power.
It is very convenient to cut, stack and reinforce wood with magic power.
Not long after, wooden house-like buildings appeared one after another on the square.
The elves even carved the exterior of the wooden houses, creating many elf-style patterns, making the neatly arranged wooden houses look more refined.
In addition, the bricks and stones laid flat on the square were also removed by the elves, revealing the soil underneath.
Some elves asked Lin Yi for permission to plant some flowers and green grass around the wooden houses to beautify the living environment... Such a request was naturally approved by Lin Yi, who also hoped that his territory would be beautiful.
...
It was late at night.
The elves built more than 50 wooden houses in total.
Each wooden house is divided into two floors, with three rooms on each floor, so it is no problem to squeeze in more than a dozen elves.
"Let's build such wooden houses for the time being."
"Wait until we occupy the inner city and even the entire ruins in the future, and then consider planning and rebuilding."
His territory in the future will definitely not be like it is now.
All buildings must be exquisite and perfect.
He not only wants to build a powerful territory, but also make his territory the most beautiful place in the entire Dark Continent. Even the weeds on the roadside must grow beautifully.
…
Another new day has arrived.
The elves' harvest at night has also been counted.
A total of more than 9,000 energy crystals have been harvested, and it is roughly estimated that more than 20,000 undead creatures have been killed.
The undead that appeared near the square have been basically cleared by the elves.
However, this was only last night.
Tonight, new undead will appear in this area. As long as the evil and dark forces under the ruins are not cleared, the undead will continue to be born.
Even the old tree does not know how many corpses are buried under the ruins.
Among them are not only elves, but also intelligent creatures of other races.
Humans, dwarves, orcs, goblins, etc.
This is not only the capital of the Elf Empire, but also a very important battlefield where the coalition forces of various races resisted the invasion of demons and evil creatures.
Over the years, if the old tree had not consumed its power to suppress the evil and dark forces under the ground, there would be more undead creatures born, more than a hundred times.
The more than 9,000 energy crystals harvested were used by Lin Yi to train elven swordsmen and elven archers as usual.
Get nearly two hundred elf soldiers.
So far, the number of elf soldiers under his command has reached more than five hundred.
The progress of Task One is halfway completed.
Lin Yi plans to upgrade the ancient war tree and unlock new soldiers after completing [Task One]. After all, upgrading the ancient war tree consumes a lot of energy crystals, which will delay the time for him to complete the task.
The reward for Task One is to unlock the [Magic Spring], and he urgently needs this building.
The reason is very simple.
The elf spring water condensed by the magic spring can quickly restore the magic of the elf soldiers.
Indirectly improve their hunting efficiency.
If there are injured elves, they can also use the elf spring water to quickly heal their injuries.
"If nothing unexpected happens."
"Today's hunting harvest during the day is enough for me to gather a thousand elf soldiers!"
Compared with yesterday's elf soldiers who only had a little over a hundred hunting outside, the number of elf soldiers today has quadrupled, and the harvest will naturally be greater.
...
In the morning, after the elves left the territory in batches, Lin Yi was also ready to start his new day of hunting.
Before this, he had bred the elves of the new day.
So far, the number of elves in his territory has reached more than 1,600.
Looking at the elves that are as bright as stars in the sky, Lin Yi can't help but feel heroic.
As long as all these elves are trained, he will have an elf army of more than 2,000 people, and he will be able to take back the ruins of the ancient city in a few days.
