Chapter 9155 - 64-city construction (1)

Zhao Hai looked at the people who had decided to surrender and felt a burst of joy in his heart. In the end, these people had decided to surrender to them. This was also within Zhao Hai’s expectations. It was impossible for these people not to surrender. They had no other choice. If they didn’t surrender, they would die. Under such a choice, very few people would choose to die, let alone these cultivators who cherished their lives very much. Of course, they would choose to live.

Zhao Hai told them to go down and explain the situation to them. He wanted them to help them make the stone bricks. At the same time, he also told them that because the campsite was too small, they could only stay in the campsite when the God’s descent light was active. They could only help make the stone bricks outside.

Those people didn’t say anything. They already knew that Zhao Hai’s group was preparing to expand and build a camp. What they needed to do now was to prepare for the construction of the camp, so they naturally wouldn’t object. On the contrary, they hoped that the city could be built as soon as possible. Otherwise, they wouldn’t even have a place to live.

None of them dared to fight back. They knew very well that if they did, Zhao Hai would kill them without hesitation. Zhao Hai was not a merciful person. This could be seen from the fact that he had killed all 50000 of them when they first attacked.

Moreover, they were still in the formation. They were even less of a match for Zhao Hai. Previously, Zhao Hai could use the formation to trap all of them. It would be even easier for him to kill them. Therefore, they absolutely did not dare to cause trouble now. Each and every one of them worked obediently under the arrangement of white eyes and the others. Some of them who knew how to refine equipment were directly selected to start refining equipment.

Zhao Hai had no choice but to do so. The sudden surrender of so many people had caught him off guard. He had to make some changes to his previous decision. He had planned to build a small city when he expanded, but now it seemed that a small city wouldn’t work. He had to build a big city. If the city was small, it wouldn’t be able to accommodate so many people.

Everyone busied themselves until the God’s descent light was about to descend. Only then did Zhao Hai allow everyone to enter the campsite. Every room in the campsite was filled with people. Meanwhile, white eyes and the others all entered the flying horses. This Flying Horse was the fine horse magical equipment that Zhao Hai had previously refined. Because the fine horse magical equipment had wings, Zhao Hai and the others called it a Flying Horse. However, the Flying Horse could not fly.

Although the environment wasn’t very good, and many people had to live together, those people could still bear it. Zhao Hai also made some adjustments to their work. They were only responsible for cutting and refining the soil. The skeletons would be in charge of carving the talismans on the soil. Although the people were very confused, they didn’t object and just followed the instructions.

Furthermore, he only had eight hours of work each day. For the remaining eight hours, he would let white eyes organize them to communicate. The rest of the time was for them to find a place to cultivate. They could move freely within the range of the array, but they could not leave it.

Zhao Hai’s arrangement surprised them. They had never thought that the sharp swords camp would have such an exchange. It was a surprise to them. The way the sharp swords camp communicated was refreshing.

However, they soon discovered the benefits of this kind of communication, especially for white eyes and the others. They shared some of their experiences from their previous exchanges with these people. These people quickly realized that they could find answers to some questions that they had been puzzled by before. This made them more active in this kind of communication.

Zhao Hai and the others even shared some of the formations they had obtained with these people. Some of them had already found formations that were suitable for them. Some of them had already begun to cultivate in a hurry. Zhao Hai did not stop them. In fact, he was happy to see them.

White eyes and the others also reminded Zhao Hai to pay attention to these people. One should know that although these people had surrendered to them, they hadn’t submitted their Pledge of Allegiance yet. If they were attacked by the people of the immortal spirit domain in the future, they might betray them. If that happened, everything that Zhao Hai had done today would be in vain.

However, Zhao Hai was not worried about this. In fact, Zhao Hai had already planted a curse on these people. As long as they did not betray him, nothing would happen. If they dared to betray him, Zhao Hai could kill them all with a single word.

It was not just these people who had just surrendered. Even white eyes and the others had Zhao Hai’s curse on them. Otherwise, Zhao Hai would not have been able to restrain Han Feng with a single sentence. Zhao Hai would not believe them so easily. It could be said that Zhao Hai did not believe any of them because they were all people who had ascended from the lower realm. It was hard to say if there were any among them who were not willing to be under Zhao Hai. If they really did not want to be under Zhao Hai and wanted to betray Zhao Hai, then ... However, Zhao Hai was not prepared at all. Wouldn’t that be very passive? Zhao Hai would not do such a thing.

In the next few days, everyone was busy making bricks. The people from the immortal spirit region and the shadow devil region didn’t attack them, which surprised Zhao Hai. He thought that the shadow devil region wouldn’t let them go and would attack them, but it seemed that they didn’t have any intention of attacking them. This puzzled Zhao Hai and he didn’t know what the shadow devil region was planning.

However, no matter what the shadow race was planning, Zhao Hai had to follow his own pace, step by step. Therefore, expansion was necessary. With such a small territory, they couldn’t develop, so building a city was necessary, and it had to be fast.

Five days after the 100000 people surrendered, they were almost done with their preparations. The bricks and stone slabs were all made. Next, they had to start building the city. Zhao Hai allowed everyone to rest for a day. On the seventh day after the God’s descent ended, Zhao Hai led everyone to the outside of their array.

Outside the formation, everyone tensed up and looked around. They were really worried that the people from the immortal spirit Zone would attack them. However, Zhao Hai didn’t react at all. He looked around and walked another fifty miles before giving the order to start building the city.

Because they had made preparations in advance, the construction of the city was very fast. First, they laid a layer of stone slabs on the ground. This layer of stone slabs had runes on it. White eyes and the others didn’t know what it was for, but the skeletons were very fast. Very soon, the stone slabs were all laid. These stone slabs didn’t need to do anything else, they just needed to lay them on the ground, so they were very fast.

There were also some people who deliberately mixed the stones into mud and then sealed all the cracks of the stone slabs. Then, they used light refinement to make these stone slabs look like a whole slab. The people didn’t know much about these arrays, so they could only watch as the skeletons lined up in two rows. The first row placed the stone slab on the ground one by one, and the people behind followed and sealed the cracks with mud. Then, they continued to refine the stone slab, and just like that, they moved forward. Very quickly, a piece of land that covered an area of about 10000 mu was covered with stone slabs.

After the stone slabs were laid out, the skeletons went to the south side of the stone slabs. Then, they took out the stone slabs one by one and arranged them in order. The spaces between the stones were sealed with mud and then refined with fire. In this way, the city wall was formed. Because the first stone slab was very big, the construction speed of the city wall became very fast. The 30-foot-high city wall was built very quickly.

At this time, white eyes and the others also directed those people to help. What they had to do was to place some stones that were not engraved with magic arrays behind those stones with magic arrays to make the city wall more solid. Of course, all the methods were the same, which was to put the stones on the ground, smear mud on it, put another stone on it, and then refine it.

There was strength in numbers. In addition, everyone was a cultivator, so the work speed was very fast. In less than two hours, the southern wall was built, followed by the eastern wall, then the northern wall, and then the Western Wall. By the time all four walls were built, it had already been more than eight hours.

Seeing this, Zhao Hai immediately ordered everyone to retreat to the camp of the sharp swords Battalion. As the city had not been built yet, they could not stay in the city. They had to retreat to their original camp before the God’s light arrived to avoid it.

Although they were worried that the new city would be taken over by the people from the immortal spirit Zone, they knew that if they didn’t return now, they would all be in trouble when the God’s descent light arrived. Therefore, they all followed Zhao Hai back and waited for the God’s descent light to finish before they built the city.

After returning to the sharp swords camp, everyone went to rest. Although the camp was more crowded, everyone could still survive the God’s vanquishing light in peace. That was enough. At the same time, those who had just surrendered felt that they were better at the sharp swords camp than at the back of the line of defense. Because here, they felt something called Hope.

Even after entering the campsite, they were still worried about the new city. Everyone was thinking about the new city and talking about it. They were all worried that the new city would be taken over by the people from the immortal spirit domain. No matter what, that was the new city that they had built with their own hands and feet. It was their future home. Of course, they were worried.

However, Zhao Hai consoled them. The new city only had four walls and no cover. Even if the people from the immortal spirit region wanted to occupy it, they would have to retreat to the defensive line when the God’s light arrived. Once the God’s light passed, Zhao Hai and the others would go and build the city. They were closer to the new city than the defensive line, so they could occupy it first without any worry.
