Chapter 32: Automatic Crossbows Went Up the Wall!

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

At night, Luo Yu, who had just taken a shower, lay on the luxurious seven-colored bed and chatted with everyone.

Today’s critical hit chance was not used because the invasion was about to start. Luo Yu was prepared to save the number of critical hits. And if he encountered a situation that he could not handle, it would be the hope of turning the tables.

Alice said, “The invasion is in three days. Are you all ready?”

Fang Yumeng: “Stop talking. I’m so worried. How can I defend against an invasion? I have more than 40,000 silver on hand. I have to convert it into combat strength as soon as possible.”

Niu Da: “Sigh, the world is already in mourning. The invasion is approaching. I saw someone commit suicide under the pressure just now.”

Alina said, “Useless. You don’t even have the courage to face danger. Living is a waste of food.”

Alice: “Alina… don’t say that.”

Luo Yu said, “I can provide an idea to stall for time.”

“If you encounter a raid by a tribe, you can clear the surrounding wilderness. As long as you can stall until the other party runs out of food, they will naturally retreat.”

“Eh? That’s a good idea. Should we build the wall as soon as possible?”

Fang Yuwei asked curiously and received an affirmative answer from Luo Yu.

Na Ke’er asked, “Luo Yu, how did you know that they would retreat if they don’t have food?”

“Don’t tell me we’ve already been raided?”

Luo Yu said, “I encountered a thief before, but he was stopped by my wall.”

“Thief!”

Everyone exclaimed!

“Is it a theft? Heavens, you really have dealt with natives!!!”

Fang Yumeng sent a long string of exclamation marks. Luo Yu only smiled faintly and kept a low profile.

He changed the topic and said, “By the way, it’s in the instructions. A special thing will appear before the raid at the end of the month. Everyone, seize the opportunity. This might be the key to getting through the raid.”

“Good!”

Everyone agreed, but Luo Yu could tell that everyone was worried.

Fang Yumeng decided to build the wall in four days. Na Ke’er prepared to dig a trap, and everyone was thinking of a way to safely survive through the raid.

Luo Yu was also very clear that the intensity of his raid would be very high. In the remaining few days, he had to do his best to build Automatic Crossbows!

Early in the morning, Luo Yu woke up from his luxurious bed and realized that he had an additional buff.

[Mining Gain: Your mining level has increased by LV3 for two days.]

Needless to say, this was naturally the buff given by the big bed.

After breakfast, Luo Yu began to organize his resources and prepare to make Automatic Crossbows.

This was because the Earth-digging Worms had been mining there in with very high intensity. Although their levels were very low, they would occasionally dig out iron ores. Currently, Luo Yu had 2,750 iron ores. With another 250 iron ores, he could gather the iron ore needed for three Automatic Crossbows.

Then there was wood. Now, there were 966 units of wood in the base. One Automatic Crossbow needed 5,000 units of wood. It was a long way off. He might not be able to gather it all by himself. Without a doubt, he would have to buy it!

He had 35,000 silver. At the moment, everyone’s demand for wood was not particularly high. The price of one unit of wood in the auction house was still 1 silver. Luo Yu very straightforwardly bought 15,000 units of wood.

[Please choose where you want to place it.]

Luo Yu chose to place it beside the wall. With so much wood, it was like a house.

As for iron ore, because everyone’s mining level was still very low and the demand was huge, it would be a huge loss if he bought it. Coincidentally, Luo Yu had obtained the mining enhancement buff today. Dig!

When he arrived at the mine, he dug fiercely. A large pile of black spotted stones and other stone materials appeared. There were also iron ores. At the same time, a notification came: [Your mining skill has been upgraded to LV5.]

With the addition of the buff, the mining level had reached Level 8. With a swing of Luo Yu’s pickaxe, a large iron ore was dug out.

Iron Ore*20

Another pickaxe, another iron ore!

Iron Ore*15

“Wonderful!”

Luo Yu was overjoyed. With his current strength and stamina, his mining speed was very fast. After a series of fierce digging, he dug up 400 units of iron ore before stopping.

Pushing the cart back to the base, Luo Yu opened the production interface and began to build the Automatic Crossbows.

There was another problem. Where should the three Automatic Crossbows be placed on the wall?

Luo Yu thought of something. Every time there was an incident or an raid, they would come down from the mountain in the east and enter the base at the same place.

He guessed that it should be the only way in and out of his territory. At least for now.

Since that was the case, he would focus on placing his defenses in the east.

After spending 15,000 units of wood, 3,000 units of iron ore, and 1,500 silver, the east wall flickered with light, and three Automatic Crossbows were embedded in the raised stone blocks of the wall.

The effective range of an Automatic Crossbow was 150 meters. In other words, it would only open fire when enemy units entered this range. Therefore, Luo Yu placed one in the middle and one in each corner, covering the maximum range and forming a crossfire.

The three Automatic Crossbows directly consumed all of Luo Yu’s materials, but the defensive abilities of the base had increased by a large margin.

It could be seen from the score. A single Automatic Crossbow increased the Base Score by 50 points. It could be seen how powerful it was.

Limited by resources, he could only make three Automatic Crossbows at the moment. Let’s earn money and see how many more he could make in the last few days.

Luo Yu sold today’s seafood and milk and continued to mine. He took advantage of the buff to dig out something good.

In a day, Luo Yu had really dug up 400 units of iron ore. There were also countless stones and a small piece of jade.

He had dug it all out with his own strength. He did not use any of his critical hits, so he felt a sense of accomplishment when he saw his gain.

At night, when Luo Yu entered the arena, he realized that the originally crowded arena seemed a little deserted. The raid was approaching, and everyone was preparing overnight. Even the number of people PKing had decreased.

Alright, then I’ll earn less.

Another day passed. When the first ray of sunlight shone through the balcony and onto Luo Yu’s big bed, he slowly woke up.

[You have received a buff. Success rate in beast taming has increased: The success rate of the next tame has increased by 20%.]

Another buff had appeared. A diamond-grade luxurious bed was sometimes so awesome!

After breakfast, Luo Yu was about to milk the cow when a notification suddenly came. [Notification: A Xuanqiu Beast Mother is being chased by a group of aboriginal soldiers. You can choose to shelter it. After choosing to shelter it, you will face the attack of the aboriginals.]

[The enemies you might face: Archers x3, Melee Soldiers x6]

“Huh?”

The sudden notification shocked Luo Yu. As mentioned in the Heavenly Dao World’s rules, a special event would appear before the raid at the end of the month. It had indeed come!
