"Captain Big Lei, when was Lilong City built?" Long Moxue asked. Her understanding of this place was the same as that of the Ninth Elder, which was in a wasteland.
At this time, Xiuying was completely unclear, because she didn't know the situation whether it was the wasteland or the city. She was new here. As for Long Aoli, she was also unclear, but because he didn't
to understand.
"If it's completed, it shouldn't be considered completed yet. It's still under construction." Captain Dalei replied.
"It's still under construction? That's no wonder. Has anything important been discovered here?" Long Moxue seemed to understand, and at the same time he also took it for granted that building a city here was because something was discovered here.
Important resources, the Long family needs to collect and protect these resources.
"Important things? There doesn't seem to be anything important. At most, there are some ordinary iron ores and copper mines nearby, not even Yuanshi mines." Captain Dalei shook his head and replied.
"What?!" Long Moxue said in surprise, and the Ninth Elder almost didn't say this, but was also very surprised.
If there are no important resources here, then why would a city be built here? It makes no sense, unless a powerful faction of the Long family created such a place for their descendants.
That is to say, Lilong City is actually just a small city. As a defensive town, it actually has a certain value. At least being saved is proof of it.
At this time, this is the only explanation that can be explained.
At the same time, they felt that Lilong City should be a small city, and it was still a small city that had not been completed. They had planned to rest in a relatively difficult place today.
only--
"Is the Lilong City you are talking about the city in front of you?" The Ninth Elder was a little dazed. At this time, Long Moxue was speechless.
Only Xiuying said carelessly, "So beautiful!!"
"Well, that is our Lilong City. There is only one such Lilong City within a radius of three hundred miles." Captain Dalei replied.
That's right. There are desolate places within a radius of three hundred miles. The city in front of us is of course Lilong City. Are there other cities?
However, this Lilong City was too unexpected. It was completely different from what they thought.
Not only is Lilong City not a small city, it is also a capital city. Although it can only be regarded as a small capital city now, how much manpower and material resources are needed to build such a large-scale construction in just one year. This is definitely not something that one person can decide.
, it must be decided by the family.
The problem is, there are no resources here. Why did the family decide to build such a large city here? And it doesn’t seem to be complete at the moment. Isn’t it still under construction?
Another point is that although Lilong City is a small capital in terms of scale, it is built on the stone forest swamp. And the most amazing thing is that now the stone forest swamp has turned into a large lake. The stone forest established before has become
Islands and reefs.
I didn't expect that this stone forest swamp would be transformed in this way. This is really a wonderful idea, and it is also a big project.
Originally, the swamp is above the horizon. If you want to fill it with water, you can't just divert water. You must also maintain the height of the water level.
Also, the stone forest itself does not enclose the swamp. The stone forest needs to be artificially enclosed, which is also a major project.
Whether it is water diversion or dam encirclement, both of these things will take a long time to complete. In addition, Lilong City still needs to be built. It seems that even all the extra resources of the Long family will not be enough, unless the Long family gives up other places.
, but is it really necessary?
And, is it necessary to build such a city?
Not only is it built on the water, this city also has a lot of transparent glass. Standing on it, you can clearly see the underwater. At the same time, there seems to be a separate area for ornamental fish underwater, which is protected by the city's buildings and formations.
of.
No wonder this place is called Lilong City, this has always been the origin!
This is what the Ninth Elder thought while standing in the square of Lilong City. The square of Lilong City is the area with the most colored glass. In fact, this Lilong City is not transparent everywhere, only part of it.
Many places are paved with ordinary stones. There are small bridges and flowing water in the city. Although this water is also the water below, it does not enter the city directly, but enters through the water inlet. Most of the rivers are paved with stones.
Well, even the bottom is made of stone.
Sometimes, shallow water is also a kind of landscape, but if the water is deep, it will be bad!
As for this Lilong City, I don’t know how it was designed. Every detail in the city is perfect and has a unique scenery. This surprised the Ninth Elder and Long Moxue, while Xiuying was everywhere.
Looking east and west.
"Um, is it possible that the Long family spent all their financial and material resources to build this unique city?"
At this time, the Ninth Elder would not think that this was a redundant resource of the Long family, but that the Long family should have spent a lot of resources, and these resources should have been used in very important places.
Why?
Yes, why? Why should we build such a city? What’s the point?
"No, everything here was built by ourselves, and we did not receive any materials from above!" Captain Lei said, and when he said this, there seemed to be a sense of pride on his face.
"Built it by yourself? Didn't you accept materials from the Long family? Impossible!" The Ninth Elder directly denied this statement because it was impossible. He felt that this might be a sense of pride for Captain Da Lei.
"Really, there was a construction team here a year ago, and I was one of the exploration and patrol members. Originally, the order we received was to try to establish a stronghold here. It seems that we were asked to follow the order and use the resources we collected.
resources to establish a stronghold!”
"Then we listened to the instructions from above and started to build this place. Unknowingly, we developed on our own to what we are now. The counselor who gave the instructions was so amazing. His strategy was so wonderful. He had already thought of today from the beginning.
, thinking about what it will develop into in the future." Captain Dalei said, but his explanation was not very clear, which was very confusing.
However, the Ninth Elder and Long Moxue could hear two things——
First, Lilong City was developed to this extent by an unimportant construction team and did not rely on material support from the Long family at all. Second, the planners of Lilong City still belonged to the Long family’s strategy hall.
, the order was issued by one of the counselors from the Strategy Hall.
But now, what they are thinking is that either Captain Da Lei is lying, or this counselor is too powerful, and he can develop Lilong City from nothing to a city in just one year with just a construction team.
At this scale now.
If they were given a choice, they would choose the former, because the former is easy to believe. They would rather believe that Captain Lei is lying than believe that there is really such a counselor controlling the development of Lilong City.
"Where is the city lord here?" asked the ninth elder.
"We don't have a city lord in Lilong City yet, and we haven't sent anyone from above. We don't know why. However, we don't have time to care about this. We have things to be busy with every day. The counselor seems to be draining all our abilities. Every day
The instructions given to us have kept us busy. I have to recruit some people now, and the number of people in the patrol team is a bit insufficient!" Captain Da Lei answered, and also chatted a little.
"What? There is no city lord in such a big city?" Elder Ninth and Long Moxue were stunned. Did they really develop it themselves?
If it were the development of the Long Family, with such a scale, the city lord would definitely be sent to take charge. Even if the Strategy Hall could directly manage the place, there are still some things that must have someone on site.
If there is no city lord, then there is only one situation. This place is still abandoned by the Long family, and they may not even know that there is such a big city here.
"We don't know either. Now that Ninth Elder knows it, you can go back and ask. However, it doesn't matter whether there is a city lord or not. As long as we follow the instructions of the counselor, we will get better and better." Captain Dalei said.
"As a city, there must always be a city lord in charge. The strategy hall is too far away from here. It is inconvenient to deal with some things. What should we do if we encounter some emergency situations?" The ninth elder frowned. He didn't want a counselor to be mythical.
Okay, this is not a good sign.
"Yes, so I asked the Ninth Elder to ask. However, we have not encountered any urgent matters so far. The counselor has given us instructions to deal with all matters." Captain Dalei nodded and said again.
For a moment, this made the ninth elder frown again.
"That's because we haven't encountered a big situation. You are not taken seriously yet. If the Song family notices you, they will definitely harass you and even attack you. At that time, someone will need to be here to guard you." Elder Ninth said.
.
"I've known it for a long time. We have been fighting against the Song family for half a year. Otherwise, I wouldn't have needed to recruit a patrol. Also, it was not an accident that we rescued you. It was because you touched our eyes." Dalei
The captain said nonchalantly.
"What?!" The Ninth Elder was stunned. What is going on? Lilong City has been fighting against the Song family for half a year. In other words, this city was not only established in one year, but also had to deal with it in half a year.
Harassment by the Song family.
Also, the Song family all knows about Lilong City, so why don’t the Long family know about it?
If you knew it, there must be a city lord sitting here, but now there is no one!
The Ninth Elder thought for a while, and then said: "Why don't you let me sit here first, and you take me to see the city's logs. I want to find out what's going on here. Mo Xue, you and Aoli have a rest, and then go to my house to make an announcement.
This thing!"
For the Ninth Elder, he is the same in his family as he is here. When the time comes, the resources will be delivered and he can teach Xiuying here. Moreover, he also likes the environment here very much.
At the same time, he also wants to find out what is going on in this city, and the city's diary will tell him everything! (To be continued...)
