Chapter 92: The introductory volume of the captives
A battle in front of Tianmen Pass made Tang Zhen gain a lot and captured thousands of practitioners from the two camps.
Lou Cheng's operation was tantamount to offending the two major camps and pushing itself to the forefront.
No matter which camp you belong to, it is absolutely impossible to give up.
It may seem like a move to bring about disaster, but in fact it is out of necessity. Lou Cheng wants to remain neutral, but there is no possibility of achieving it.
Loucheng is a piece of fat meat. Anyone who wants to take a bite of it will never let it go easily.
Since the outcome has been determined, it is better to act tougher and let people know that Loucheng is not at the mercy of others.
Not only can't you bite, but you may even chip your teeth.
Buy enough time, and when the building city grows up, you will not be afraid of enemy invasion.
When friends come, there is good wine; when there are wolves, there is a shotgun. They can not only frighten the enemy, but also possibly kill them.
With this idea in mind, Tang Zhen once again strengthened the loyalty education courses, hoping that more candidate residents would meet the loyalty standards.
According to Lou Ling's statistics, more than 70,000 people have obtained official resident status so far.
The remaining 30,000 should be successfully achieved within three days at the latest.
Although the news was gratifying, Tang Zhen did not dare to take it lightly. Who knows what might happen in three days.
If the group of cultivators in Northern Xinjiang are short-circuited and insist on launching an attack, they will be in big trouble.
It was precisely because of this concern that Tang Zhen accelerated the progress of education, which was tantamount to forced brainwashing.
The disadvantage of this is that when you find that reality is inconsistent with what you know, your beliefs will easily be shaken and collapsed.
Therefore, in certain circumstances, maintaining a closed information environment will become very important.
If it is placed inside the building city, there will not be so much worry, because the building city will only get better and better in the future.
Since this is the case, there is no need to worry about the collapse of faith.
After landing on the cornerstone platform, Tang Zhen purchased another batch of weapons and equipment to enhance the defense capabilities of the building city.
The blocking battle that took place in front of Tianmen Pass proved that firearms and weapons were quite powerful, and even practitioners did not dare to fight against them easily.
Since the weapons are easy to use and very cheap, Tang Zhen naturally needs to prepare more.
On the cornerstone platform, he once again purchased a large number of long-range weapons and concentrated them on the edge of the city.
When necessary, you can directly launch an attack.
At the same time, hundreds of infantry fighting vehicles were added inside Loucheng, which have strong mobility and can reach any area of Loucheng at any time.
The main purpose of this is to prevent the enemy from attacking from the ground, and then the tank can be used to block the attack.
These intelligent networked weapons and equipment can be handed over to Lou Ling for control, and they can also be handed over to the four major legions.
The soldiers in Loucheng have learned that simple operations are not a problem, and Tang Zhen has decided to collectively instill combat skills into the soldiers.
With their physical fitness and the corresponding elixirs, the side effects of instilling skills can be completely resolved.
This kind of instillation of knowledge and skills will become the norm in the future. Residents of Loucheng who are in a special period must make some contributions at critical moments.
If they protect the building city well, their future will be brighter. If the building city ceases to exist, happiness and dreams will also be destroyed.
Protecting the entire building city and allowing it to grow smoothly is definitely not Tang Zhen's responsibility alone.
After logging into the Cornerstone platform, Tang Zhen purchased a large number of elixirs and magic weapons to arm the newly transformed puppet monks.
From now on, they will become Tang Zhen's workers. Since they are working for him, they must not be perfunctory in terms of equipment.
The weapons and elixirs Tang Zhen purchased were all standard types that could be purchased in large quantities. They were obviously specially made for the monk army.
Military supplies are actually all the same. We cannot guarantee the best quality, but they are definitely the most cost-effective.
This time, the material purchase was not taken out of Tang Zhen's pocket, but was provided by the captive monks.
It turns out that among the prisoners in Northern Xinjiang, there is a group of practitioners who like to swallow metal and use it to refine and strengthen their bodies.
Their body surface is covered with alloy armor, possessing strong defensive capabilities.
There is also a large amount of metal placed in the storage equipment for easy absorption and refining at any time.
Other prisoners also carried more or less some, and the total amount was not a small amount.
In the end, Lou Ling calculated that the gold and silver in the loot once again exceeded 100 million.
Tang Zhen couldn't help but secretly lament that as his status improved and he came into contact with a higher level world, it became easier to make money.
When the city was first built, ten thousand taels of silver was a huge sum of money, and Tang Zhen was thinking about how to make money.
It's different now. Without thinking about making money, money is delivered to you. A daily purchase costs tens or millions.
Although I spend money like water, I earn more and more.
This is a good thing, at least it can divert Tang Zhen's attention from thinking about increasing revenue and cutting expenditure all day long.
Since the captive paid for it himself, Tang Zhen was naturally not too stingy and deliberately raised the purchasing standard to a higher level.
Although it is only one grade, the quality has been greatly improved.
When it was distributed to the hands of the puppet monks, it immediately aroused some exclamation. They obviously did not expect to obtain such a top-quality elixir and magic weapon.
While feeling depressed and uneasy, my heart was also full of doubts and admiration, and I wanted to know the background and origin of Lou Cheng more and more.
Even the elite direct disciples of the original sect may not receive such good treatment.
These magic weapons and elixirs that you have been allocated cannot be bought with money. You must have corresponding channels.
Thousands of practitioners each received a copy. This kind of thing is even more incredible.
Such a huge amount represents a terrifying amount of resources, enough to wipe out the entire wealth of a large sect.
However, the building city was distributed at will, as if it was free of charge.
Because of this incident, there was a debate among the Helmet monks, and many prisoners were surprised by this.
They do not communicate verbally, nor do they use spiritual thoughts, but an internal dedicated communication system.
Through spiritual control, text messages can be sent, and pictures and videos can also be transmitted.
If necessary, you can also hide your name and identity, and only your unique number will be displayed.
In reality, if you don't reveal your original identity, other helmeted monks will not be able to recognize you.
This magical way of communication quickly attracted the monks, and they all enjoyed themselves a lot.
At the same time, they also discovered that the exchange system can connect to the Loucheng platform to view their points and redeemable items.
Seeing the dazzling array of elixirs and various powerful magic weapons, the helmeted monks felt extremely excited.
Originally, they all felt that they were being forced to do things by Lou Cheng, so they inevitably responded negatively.
Just complete the basic tasks and pass Lou Ling's review, and then quietly look for opportunities to gain freedom.
But when they saw the magical elixir and knew its effects, their mentality immediately changed dramatically.
Resistance and earning benefits are not in conflict with each other. If it is to earn benefits, appropriate compromise is not impossible.
As long as you keep your heart firm, everything else is just a cloud. Even if you get enough benefits, you don't need to be half grateful to Lou Cheng.
He was even thinking secretly in his mind about how he could earn more battle merit points and exchange them for these precious magic weapons and elixirs.
At the same time, he also secretly warned that such positive behavior is actually all for himself.
In the internal communication system, there is also a list of assigned tasks, which can be freely received by the helmeted monks.
The content is marked on it, as well as the points you can earn, and some tasks even come with special rewards.
At the beginning, no one took up these tasks, and the prisoners maintained a tacit understanding of confrontation.
This tacit understanding did not last long. After the first task was accepted anonymously, the other tasks were snatched up in an instant.
The tacit understanding among the prisoners was broken, and the involution competition officially began. No one would joke with their own future opportunities.
