Chapter 445 - A Mysterious Arrangement
Chapter 445: A Mysterious Arrangement
The Scripture Library, Treasure Pavilion, Devil-suppressing Division, and so on were the core departments of the Kingdom of Dawn and could exchange for various resources.
However, some restrictions on some key and core resources were imposed on these departments. For example, if one wanted to exchange the treasures in the Treasure Pavilion, one could just exchange them with points for low-level, medium-level, and high-level treasures. Whereas the top-rank treasures could only be exchanged with points and merit points. The best top-rank treasures could only be exchanged with merit points.
It was the same for the other two departments. Many of the top rank books in the Scripture Library could not be read just because you had points. The top knowledge required qualifications. One had to either have enough merits or get special approval from the Lord of Dawn. otherwise, no one could read it.
Therefore, real good things couldn’t be bought with Star Coins in the Kingdom of Dawn. Although the purchasing power of the Star Coins was very strong, the best treasures could only be exchanged with merit points and points. The Star Coins were only for ordinary people to use.
Hence, everyone needed merit points. Merit points were never too much for them.
“Alright, you can go back now. There will be a war soon, and I still need you to work together to create more equipment for the kingdom!”
When the master craftsmen heard that the reward this time was not only Star Coins and points but also merit points, they were so happy that they could not close their mouths. As soon as Li Xiang asked them to leave, they turned around and left without any hesitation, even forgetting to greet him.
However, Li Xiang didn’t care about these small details. After all, they were all in the field of technology, so it was understandable that they were a little lacking in the ways of the world.
To them, they would rather spend more time studying the knowledge that they were interested in and even studying ancient books if they had the time to be polite. They had no time to care about anything else.
“These things are not bad, but the quantity is a little low.”
In addition to the seven or eight strange items on the table, there were a few boxes next to them, all of which were specially made to contain the same items.
“With this, the army will have more tricks up their sleeves, and their chances of winning will be higher. When the time comes, I’ll teach the foreign races a lesson and let them know that the Kingdom of Dawn isn’t a pushover.”
Li Xiang was still a little apprehensive about this battle. After all, this was the first real battle after coming to the Myriad World Continent.
It was different from the Trial World. The enemies back then looked threatening, but in fact, they were just a big quantity of them. Their strength was very low.
However, the old forces of the foreign races in the Myriad World Continent had unimaginable foundations. Even if he had many trump cards, he did not dare to underestimate them.
Trying his best and preparing for the worst had always been the standard of conduct that he pursued after descending to this world!
This thing might not be very useful to the other races, but it will teach the Scorpion race army a painful lesson!
Then, he returned to his palace and dealt with the new weapons in the meditation room.
Not long after, he called for people to carefully move out the things that he had dealt with.
The number was big. There were only two boxes originally. But now, there were probably more than 100,000 boxes.
He had combined the Universal Printer and the Void Divine Mirror to create them. Meanwhile, he had consumed a massive amount of crystals and energy.
That night, countless people busied themselves with transporting these boxes out, and then quickly sending them to various cities through the teleportation array.
This situation continued for two days and two nights.
Early morning, the city lords of every city received a private message from their kingdom’s ruler. Not long after that, they began to gather their troops and citizens to start digging holes outside the city.
Many people didn’t know what was going on, so they followed the teams to watch the show.
The commotion was quite big. Every city had at least a million people, and at least a few hundred thousand people. The people who followed them out of the city were even denser. It made people anxious but they had no idea what was going on.
“What are they doing? They’re holding a hoe and a shovel!”
“This is so strange. Shouldn’t we be strengthening the defense now? Why are they farming? Didn’t we already open up a large piece of land when we were exploring the wasteland? The seedlings in the land have already grown. Are they going to harvest them in advance?”
Countless people were curious, and they were all watching the scene.
Even Master Important was confused.
“Does the Lord of Dawn have any new ideas about the upcoming war?”
He was curious and thought about all the possibilities but he still couldn’t figure out why.
Very quickly, they noticed that many people had started to dig holes in the open space outside the city.
Some of these pits were deep and some were shallow. They were all quite far away.
Due to a large number of people, the digging speed was really fast. Not long after, the ground around the entire city was filled with pits of different depths.
“Is this the trump card that the lord prepared for the foreign races? But it doesn’t look like it!”
“Maybe there’s a mystery we don’t know about!”
In just one morning, the periphery of all the cities in the Kingdom of Dawn had been covered with countless potholes.
Many people didn’t know what were the holes up to. They were full of doubts.
“I wonder what they’re going to do with so many holes!”
Soon, in the afternoon, groups of soldiers brought the wooden boxes to the outskirts of the city. Then, they took out black balls from the wooden boxes and buried them in the holes. They then carefully covered the holes with soil.
After all the holes were buried, a Demon Mage immediately appeared and cast a spell. The entire ground instantly returned to normal, and it was impossible to tell that countless holes had been dug here.
“What are those black balls?”
“Those should be the secret weapons prepared by the lord, right?”
Almost at the same time, huge ballistae began to appear on the city walls. These ballistae had been improved and had automatic loading mechanisms. They had extremely high shooting speed and powerful power. The bolts used were also specially made with runes. They could be used to pierce, explode, burn, freeze, and many other functions.
However, what truly shocked everyone was the Magic Crystal Cannons mounted around the city walls.
These Magic Crystal Cannons were not as clumsy as people had imagined. The Sky Workshop incorporated scientists, mechanical experts, and Demon Mages from the modern era of the earth. The Magic Crystal Cannons built with the cooperation of the craftsmen were completely different from what people had imagined.
In the past, Magic Crystal Cannons had used magical crystals as energy to fire. But now, after the modification, the cannons had various types of cannonballs added to them besides using magical crystals as energy.
