Game of the World Tree

Facts have proved that when it comes to the efficiency of building a city, "Even Kingdom" is really the second place in the Mengmeng Committee, and no guild dares to say it first.

After Xiaoxianmiao explained her thoughts clearly, the players in the guild suddenly moved...

And those voices of doubt disappeared after the players opened the passage to the third fortification site a week later.

As Xiao Xianmiao said, although the rock layer in this basin is very thick and cannot lead directly to the underground world, there is a cave that Rose Queen of Spiders once opened up to the third fortification point closest to the underground world.

And the cave that can accommodate the size of the spider queen Rose at the golden rank is definitely not small.

At the very least, it can easily accommodate the most popular trucks driving side by side, and there is still a lot of space left, enough for four or five players to jump back and forth upside down.

Good traffic conditions are a prerequisite for large-scale trade.

The cave is slightly tortuous, but it has little effect. Players can reach the third fortification point closest to the underground world after walking for an hour.

The opening of the passage is not difficult, and the thickness of the rock formations in the third fortification point and the underground world is thinner than players imagined, probably less than one kilometer.

And the passage that Spider Queen Rose excavated was already below 500 meters underground.

Therefore, the player finally just dug another 200 meters with the assistance of magic and crypt spiders, and directly opened the entrance to the underground world.

What surprised them was that after entering the underground world from this place, what they arrived at was not the Deep Cave where Black Rock City was located (see Chapter 172 for details), but a fringe city of the Quiet City-State Alliance (see Chapter 347 for details)!

This is very important.

You must know that the most trade with players in the underground world is the Silent City-State Alliance.

The Deep Cave is still too small, and there are too few dwarves in Black Rock City. They have long been unable to meet the needs of the growing players for trade.

Therefore, since the number of players has exceeded 100,000, they have mainly used the Deep Cave as a springboard to trade with the already allied Silent City-State Alliance.

Under such circumstances, a smooth trade route is particularly important.

Although Rivendell also has an entrance to the underground world, it is still too remote.

At present, players' trade with the Silent City-State Alliance either needs to pass through the complex and winding underground lake system of the Deep Cave, or simply go through the teleportation array of Black Rock City...

However, the carrying capacity of teleportation arrays is limited.

It's okay to transport people at the critical moment. If you really want to transport goods, the magic stone consumed is too large.

Nor is it possible to put goods in the storage space.

It consumes even more magic stones to transport a storage space full of goods than to directly transport the goods...

Among them, the influence of space law is involved.

Therefore... it is very important to be able to open up a trade route that leads directly to the Silent City-State Alliance.

At this moment, no one in the Mengmeng Committee questioned Xiao Xianmiao's decision.

Don't say anything else, just control this passage to collect tolls, they will be able to collect money in the future and they will be soft!

Regardless of the fact that the Heart of Nature Guild has been assisted by dwarves, its scenery is infinite.

All-player guilds do the most in their trade.

And if they want to trade more conveniently in the future, I am afraid that they will have to choose this trade route.

In a sense, the bright future of the Mengmeng Committee is already doomed.

Although they have a good relationship with the Heart of Nature Guild, they also have a competitive mood.

Before, the Mengmeng Committee relied on the land of the city of heaven to eat the heart of nature, but now it seems that in the future, it can rely on the trade route to suppress the other party.

It is the uncle who grasps the business road.

After thinking about this clearly, the players of the Mengmeng Committee became more enthusiastic.

Even if the environment here is not as good as the Forest of Spirits, even if there is nothing here, their hearts are full of hope.

And then, the construction of the city in full swing officially began.

The main material for building the city is the stone obtained after Xiao Xianmiao fried the mountain.

It's also a waste.

Not to mention, the effect is not bad!

The reason why the Dark Mountains are called the Dark Mountains is because the obsidian deposits in the mountains are extremely rich.

In the world of Saiggs, the stone with the same name as the Blue Star Obsidian itself is a good building material and magic material.

Of course, the obsidian in the world of Seggs is different from the obsidian in Bluestar.

Although they all look like black glass, the obsidian in the world of Seggs is much tougher.

Under the action of magic, obsidian can not only be used as a building material, but also can be directly built into a city wall.

And the city wall built with this material will have a higher effect when casting a magical defensive barrier.

Sandstorm City in the Dead Desert is an example.

In fact, if it wasn't for the fact that the Dark Mountains were relatively remote from the human world, and the fact that it originally belonged to the sphere of influence of the Orcs, otherwise, there would have been forces among the human race to find a way to enter the mountains to mine stones.

In this regard... it can only be said that no matter how bad the environment is, it has its own merits.

Depends if you can find it.

At this time, the players couldn't help but sigh, the race of orcs... is really lying on the treasure mountain without knowing it.

And just like responding to the sighs of the players, after the passage to the underground world was opened, another happy event came over...

Someone discovered the magic stone and mithril veins at the third fortification point!

Not only that, there are also large derivative ore veins of iron ore under the main ore vein, and some life-style players who specialize in forging have even discovered precious fine gold!

This is really a double happiness.

After playing the game for so long, players are familiar with the common magic materials in "Elf Kingdom".

Needless to say, the magic stone is the main source of magic power for many magic circles. The operation of the teleportation circle relies on the magic power provided by the magic stone.

And Mithril not only looks beautiful like shiny silver, but also has the characteristics of being as light as goose feathers and as strong as steel, and it has extremely high magical properties.

Many players' equipment contains mithril.

As for iron ore and fine gold, the former is naturally the main material for various equipment, while the latter has a higher magical affinity than mithril, and is often used in the casting of artifacts!

It is also interesting to say that players find these veins through the passage of the crypt spider.

And when they found the ore veins, they also found many traces of being eaten.

It's just that the traces seem to be a few years old.

Obviously, the spider queen Rose once lived here.

However, she did not eat all these ore veins, but after staying for a while, she went to Rivendell.

This is also because Rivendell's mines are more abundant and of higher quality.

It's just that Rivendell's surface high-quality deposits have already been mined almost, and only some of the quality is so-so.

Although there are a lot of high-quality minerals in the deeper underground, it is difficult for players to reach there, only burrowing spiders can.

And even if players can go deep into the ground to mine ore, whether the spider queen Rose who feeds on the ore is willing or not is another matter.

A mineral that cannot be mined is equivalent to not having it.

In this case, the high-quality ore veins discovered by players in the Dark Mountains can be said to be quite a surprise.

What makes players even more happy is that they unexpectedly discovered that these ancient crypt spider caves are still functional.

Some players tried it and were pleasantly surprised to find that they were even able to walk all the way to Rivendell and emerge from one of the hidden caves through the tunnel of the crypt spider!

The whole process takes less than seven days...

This efficiency is much faster than taking the mountain road on the surface for a month, and it is also much faster than walking the deep underground cave!

Going back to Rivendell from the underground world would have to pass through the underground lake system, and it would take ten days and a half months.

Who says the Dark Mountains are barren and hopeless?

This Nima is simply a treasure!

The good news is not over...

Half a month after the discovery of the ore veins, the third good news came.

That is the road to the eastern rich plains, which was also blown up by the players using magic stone bombs.

As Xiao Xianmiao said, the part of the rich plain adjacent to the southern part of the Dark Mountains belongs to the Kingdom of Ayres. Through the blasted channel, players can completely leave the area of ​​the Dark Mountains for up to an hour, and then one day at most. The distance, you can rush to the nearest human village to the Dark Mountains.

Of course, the map of the Kingdom of Iris has not been fully opened yet, and players can only touch the edge of the village and town at most, but this is enough.

The road has been opened, the trade route has been completed.

In the past, there was only one way from the Plains of Plenty to the upper part of the western underworld where the Alliance of Dark City-States and the Alliance of Silent City-States were located.

That's Sandstorm City on the Dead Desert.

However, if you go from there, you have to cross the desert with harsh climate for seven days and seven nights, and there is the possibility of being attacked by orcs or desert lizards.

But it's different now.

If the road to the Dark Mountains is officially opened, starting from the most marginal villages and towns in the human world, and following the roads opened by the players, you can reach the fortification point of the committee in one day, and the entrance to the underground world in a few hours.

I don't know how much higher the efficiency is than before!

Underworld West Zone, Ayres Kingdom, Death Desert, Elf Forest...

Unconsciously, the fortification point chosen by Xiao Xianmiao actually connected all these areas, and there is currently the most convenient road to any place!

The value of this treasure land, even the slow player, realizes it.

Hub.

Here, it is an undeveloped transportation hub, the future business capital!

At this time, the benefits of the rugged terrain of the Dark Mountains came into play again.

Building a city in the mountains is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Even such an important transportation hub will inevitably become a treasure coveted by various forces in the future. As long as a strong city is built, players will not be afraid of anything.

At this moment, the Mengmeng committee was full of admiration for Xiao Xianmiao's foresight.

Amazing.

Really great.

It seems to be a not very good fortification point, but I didn't expect it to have such value after some operations.

In contrast, the low magic power concentration in this area is not so important.

And at this time, think about the age of the guild leader in reality. Every player has a feeling that he has lived his life as a dog.

People can't compare.

Although the guild leader of his own will become the enemy's ally if he is not careful when he fights, but this kind of strategic vision is really possible.

She didn't look like a girl who had just passed her fifteenth birthday.

The road was opened, the foundation was cast, and then the city was built.

Taking into account the terrain factors and the background of the game, as well as the local materials, the Mengmeng Committee designed the new town to feel like a western-style castle, and tried to add some elf-style designs.

No way, who made the architectural style of the elves so beautiful.

Under the planning of Aunt Bird and others, after the fortress city is built, it will be able to accommodate more than 50,000 players, and it can be expanded to 200,000 at most.

Of course, this is not considering the future of using the land of the other two connected fortification points.

And the name of the city was also thought of by Xiao Xianmiao in advance.

It's called a city on a hill!

On the one hand, the site is located in the mountains, and the city is located on the mountain; on the other hand, it symbolizes the ambitions of the players!

The city on the top of the mountain, the light that illuminates the world.

They want to create a highly anticipated epic business city!

The urban construction work of the Mengmeng Committee is proceeding in an orderly manner.

The other major guilds and guild alliances have not fallen behind.

They also became familiar with the terrain of the fortification point one by one, planned the city construction plan, and started the city construction.

Among them, the Heart of Nature, as everyone speculated, designed the new city as a port, and the architectural style adopts the traditional elf style-because it was designed by a half-elf designer.

Their city, after discussion, was named Grey Harbor by Li Mu.

This is a tribute to an elf port in the western fantasy "The Lord of the Rings" on Blue Star, and it is quite suitable for Rivendell.

The fortification of the First Army was much simpler.

They mainly sourced local materials, used various woods, and then used Druid magic to revive plants.

This is a very convenient way to build a city, and it is also one of the efficient city building methods in the early days of the city of the chosen city.

Not to mention, after these wooden houses are activated, they really look like tree houses, which are very magical.

And their city was named Winterfell by Fried Tomatoes.

As the future central city in the north, he felt that the name was more appropriate.

However, the city built by the Calamity Knights, the fourth largest guild, has a Blue Star style.

They chose Chinese-style buildings and built a garden city in the northwest area of ​​the elves.

Of course, they also activated the wooden structure, which is a fantastic version of Chinese gardens.

The name of the city was named Shangjing.

It is the least Western fantasy among all the city names.

As for the remaining three guild alliances...

The All-Stars also chose an elf-style building, and the city is called Atlantis.

Azeroth uses the common Western fantasy architectural style, and the city name is simple and rude, directly using Lordaeron.

It can be said that from top to bottom are paying tribute to "World of Warcraft".

However, the urban construction style of Long Live the Goddess is not so uniform.

As the alliance with the largest number of guilds and the weakest strength, their city construction is planned after the place, each guild builds their own, but it feels like a city of choice...

The name of the city was named Eden by their vote.

It's also fun.

Obviously, when it comes to taking personal IDs and guild names, there are various kinds of strange flowers emerging one after another.

But when the city was built, the players were a lot more honest.

Of course, on the one hand, it is because the city names are mostly voted, and there is much less personal evil; on the other hand, players are increasingly substituting themselves into the game.

Role-playing is doing more and more, and spoofing is naturally less and less.

It's just that it doesn't matter if they take some weird names. Anyway, they are transliterated in the ears of the native Saigers.

Just like the city of Manchester on the blue star, the Chinese people never knew that the ancient name of the name means "mountain in the shape of **"...

So far, the seven new cities built by the players have basically been determined.
