The Last King of Darkness Chapter 113

Rhode saw an extremely steep and towering gray mountain from a distance.

A thin crack opened the mountain from the middle, and Jianguan stood in it.

When I got closer, I found that the "crack" was more than 100 yards wide, and the sword pass at the end of the canyon was also a magnificent cyan fortress.

The soldiers guarding Jianguan were extremely excited about the arrival of the reinforcement team. When Rhodes and others stepped into the fort, huge cheers almost resounded through the Dead Mountain Canyon.

The garrison commander was named Charlas Steelhand, a man in his thirties, with a vicissitudes of life and white temples, but the smile at the moment made him a lot younger.

"That's great, brothers, you've come so well. We thought we could wait for reinforcements in another week. The upper level of the defense area told me that the dispatch of the war department was full, but we really can't wait, overflowing. The Kuroshio will come here at any time, and our psionic generator has not been repaired, and if the fortress collapses, everything will be over."

Beowood stepped forward and took his hand.

"Don't worry, sir, we brought Mina, a special researcher at the Institute of Mechanical Engineering and a special teacher at Jinworth College, and she will definitely be able to repair the psionic generator."

Applause and cheers erupted again.

Mina waved to them generously, which even stirred up a whistle.

Annabei muttered in a low voice, "The guy with big **** and no brains."

Beauwood smiled and said, "Your Excellency, assign us tasks."

The steel hands and jaws took them into the battle command room in the center of the fort.

On a huge round table, there is a map centered on Jianguan.

"This is our position. It is located in the seventh defense area, at the end of the inner defense circle. Behind us is the laterite plain in the hinterland of the kingdom. If we fall, Yancun and Nanfeng Town will bear the brunt."

"After destroying these two settlements, the violent monster tide will continue to spread to eight villages and towns along these three lines, until the old city has enough defenses against it. In addition to a large number of casualties, three true silver mines, seven Platinum mines will stop working, there will be a certain gap in the supply of resources, and recovery will be very difficult.”

The thick fingers of the steel hand moved on the map, and the tone became a little heavy.

"The Kuroshio arrived one day earlier than the White Tower's expected date. The outer defense circle has been disabled, and the middle defense circle has assumed the functions of the outer layer. That is to say, the inner defense circle has become the middle defense circle."

"According to the principle of defense, we will also suffer a greater impact. In fact, we have been attacked by a large number of evil spirits, and it is they who have destroyed our psionic generator."

Beauwood nodded: "Please rest assured, sir, we have brought a top-level visionary, and no evil spirit can escape his vision."

One fighter shouted: "Great! For the first time I feel like we're being valued."

A squad leader shouted excitedly: "Isn't it? They also brought the fire of guardianship! Finally, our fire-guarding sacrificial ground can no longer use the afterglow!"

Steel Hand also showed a happy smile.

"This is really the best news I have heard this year. Our priority now is to repair the psionic generator as soon as possible. Without it to provide psionic protection, Jianguan Fortress may be destroyed."

"Then clean up the monsters near Jianguan to reduce the pressure when the Kuroshio comes, especially those evil spirits still wandering in the wasteland."

"Finally, we also need to establish several patrol teams to ensure the safety of our material transportation and communications."

He turned his head and said seriously.

"I'm sorry. After a series of fierce battles, there are only 21 soldiers left. Two people died in battle, and 15 people were seriously injured. They were sent back to the king's city. Our defense mission will be very heavy."

Both Beowood and Raistlin smiled and said in unison, "Don't worry, sir, we're not afraid."

The steel hand said loudly: "Okay, I am relieved to have your words. May the fire walk with us, illuminate our sharp blades, and kill all the demons and ghosts!"

Three strong arms were held together, and all three showed passionate expressions.

Then, they began to carefully negotiate the allocation of personnel.

Beorwood and Raistlin detail the characteristics and combat abilities of each team member to Steelers.

Moll carried a lamp and was surrounded by warriors to the fire protection sacrificial field, and placed the fire of protection in the center of a huge stone plate.

Along with his strange ritual movements, the guardian fire gradually became stable.

Until there was a light sound of the card, it seemed that some kind of mechanism was embedded, the missing hurdle was filled, and the guardian fire solidified.

In the next instant, the entire fortress lit up.

The mood of the soldiers also broke through the barrier, and many people couldn't help crying, feeling the warmth that they had not felt for a long time.

Rhodes also felt the strange warm current that rushed to the bottom of his heart.

It was as if the guardian fire had taken root here, dispelling the coldness that originated from the bottom of the world.

This may be the reason why human beings always use fire as their stronghold.

Mor also showed a smile. After the fire of guardianship landed, the power was stabilized and would not be lost easily.

As long as you pay attention to adding phlogiston, the fire is difficult to put out.

After that, the soldiers took Mina to the underground of the fortress.

In the center of the basement, stood a large red tree-like crystal.

The bottom of the crystal is a round altar made of red copper, which looks like a giant bonsai growing out of metal.

A soldier said: "Miss Mina, this is our psionic generator, when activated, it will strengthen our fortress with psychic energy, so that it will not be knocked down by monsters, and it will also prevent the penetration of spirits, but due to We haven't maintained it for too long, and after the last attack by evil spirits, it failed and never started again."

Mina nodded, and when she got closer, she saw that there were cracks all over the psionic generator. When she touched it lightly, she found that the bottom metal had lost psychic energy.

Her expression became solemn, she took out tools from the backpack behind her, and began to disassemble the metal below, revealing the complex structure inside.

No one can understand it, only Rhode can barely recognize one point. It is somewhat similar to the internal structure of the spirit spear. They both change or amplify psionic energy through certain structures, and then form specific functions through certain cores.

Although I couldn't understand it, almost all the soldiers in Jianguan came to watch.

The psionic generator is the core of Jianguan. The fortress of Jianguan is built with ordinary stones. Although it is convenient and fast, it will easily collapse without a psionic generator.

Everyone looked at Mina expectantly.

But as the repair progressed, Mina's face became more and more solemn, and everyone became anxious.

At some point, the garrison commander and the two captains also stood aside.

Suddenly, Mina stood up and said in a deep voice: "The situation is far beyond expectations, it has not been maintained for too long, the internal damage is very serious, there are many breakpoints, the most serious is this psionic regulator, it has been Totally damaged."

Steelhand said nervously, "Miss Mina, can you fix it?"

Mina glanced at him, and there was only the solemnity of a researcher on her delicate and beautiful face.

"I can fix it, but I need at least ten copper and platinum."

Steel Hand said hurriedly, "Yes, we have it in our warehouse."

"I still need a ruby."

As soon as the voice fell, everyone's face showed a look of embarrassment.

Ruby is not a common material, and they don't have it in their warehouse.

"Is it too late to apply upwards?" asked Beallwood.

Gangshou's face showed embarrassment: "It will take four to five days at the earliest, and now it is very difficult everywhere, the front-line fortresses and fortresses are facing the impact of the Kuroshio, and they need materials very much. Our situation is relatively relaxed, and it is impossible for the military department to deal with it immediately."

"Then what? Are we going to give up Jianguan?"

This is too hard to accept.

Steel Hand glanced back, almost everyone gathered in the basement, he asked like a prayer, "Does any of you have Ruby?"

No one answered.

He also knew that it was almost impossible for anyone to answer, who would carry a ruby ​​that can't be eaten or used?

However, Rhode's heart suddenly moved.

He raised his sleeves, buttoned them, pinched out the lightning symbol, and his soul rose into the air, instantly returning to the dream.

In the quiet mist, the pile of debris was piling up in the corner of the hut.

Rhode looked around and quickly found the Ruby they were talking about.

It is oval in shape, the size of a pebble, warm and shiny, and very expensive, 4,900 silver wires.

It was he who bought it during the big shopping.

Rhode squeezed the ruby ​​with his palms, folded his hands, made a lightning gesture, his soul plummeted, and he instantly returned to the material world.

The hands were slippery, soft and hard, Rhode untied the cufflinks, opened his palms, and Ruby appeared in his palms.

"I have!"

In a dark and silent atmosphere, Rhode's voice was like a light, piercing the dark clouds.

In an instant, everyone focused their attention on Rhodes, and on his outstretched palm, the jade that exuded a warm red luster.

Mina was very surprised: "How can you have it? What are you doing with Ruby on your body?"

She reached out to pick up ~www.mtlnovel.com~, but Rhodes shrank back as if he had been burned.

"I bought this, and I want to pay for it."

Rhode's words made everyone heave a sigh of relief.

Steel Hand said immediately: "Don't worry, Brother Rhodes, if the War Department doesn't reimburse you immediately, I will pay for it."

"Well."

Rhodes was relieved and stretched out his hand.

Mina grabbed it angrily and said angrily, "Money, money, money, you know money!"

Rhode said dissatisfiedly: "I'll buy it myself!"

"Don't you know how to give?"

"Then do you want to dedicate a night to me?"

"Bah! Think beautifully."

Mina's Joy +9

Humanity +1

Mina turned her head to the side, carefully looked at the ruby ​​in her hand, and said happily, "It's true, it can be used!"

Cheers suddenly resounded through the basement.

Raistlin was also full of joy. He didn't want to see the mission interrupted before it even started.

He came closer and asked in a low voice, "Rod, why did you bring a ruby ​​with you?"

Rhode replied casually: "To ward off evil spirits!"

"...Ruby is a very precious spiritual material. Without protection, the spirituality will attract the black mist to corrupt, and it can only bring disaster."

While Rhode was racking his brains to make up excuses, he heard Mina say again:

"Don't be too happy, its contact core is also completely damaged. If it is in Wangcheng, I would suggest that this instrument be scrapped directly."

Steel Hand hurriedly asked, "Is there a way to fix it? Miss Mina."

"Yes, I can make a new one. I have regular materials, but I need a glowstone of thirteen grams or more."

isn't it?

Looking at everyone's sinking faces, Rhodes had a very bad feeling.

Are you poisonous?

I'm here for a big purchase for you?
