I have a magical world

Chapter 273: Prosperous shops outside the sentry point [Please subscribe]

They come, the security.

You’ve already arrived, so there’s no need to leave in a hurry.

[Wanyuan Order] is the "locator" of the blasphemous Charm Ojia.

Can guide her to find herself.

By making good use of this, Chen Xuan can easily manipulate her.

Isn't the Demon General very arrogant?

He wanted to see if Oga, the blasphemous charm, dared to attack the Black Leaf sentry point.

Suppose this place is besieged by monsters.

The giant city can send reinforcements through the teleportation array every minute.

Whether it is defensive buildings or defensive equipment, they are all here.

Enough to deal with a protracted tug of war.

The energy level of the long-distance teleportation array is very high and cannot be isolated by conventional means.

As long as reinforcements can arrive at any time, Blackleaf Sentinel is still very capable of fighting.

Assuming that the demonic disaster around Magtan City breaks out here, it will be nothing at all.

The number of more than 100,000 monsters refreshed in each round is not enough for the legion stationed at the outpost to kill them.

In war, soldiers can receive part of the magic cores from killing monsters as additional rewards.

This proportion is about 10% to 15% of the total number. Of course, the specific distribution is determined based on merit.

For soldiers at outposts and battle forts, war meant not only death but also sudden wealth.

Walking on the road, Chen Xuan watched the black group disappear at the end of his sight.

The alarm was still not lifted, and the melodious horn sounded every half minute.

When the situation is urgent, the frequency of blowing the horn will also be shortened.

Chen Xuan took off the [Wanyuan Order] hanging on his waist to prevent any knowledgeable guy from recognizing it.

He conveniently stuffed the [Wanyuan Order] into the lining pocket of his leather armor.

As long as Ojia, the blasphemous charm, can continue to sense the existence of the token, Chen Xuan does not believe that she will not feel itchy.

Taking this opportunity, he planned to take a closer look at the situation at the Black Leaf Sentinel Point.

At the same time, I stopped by the city to have a look.

If we can take advantage of this opportunity to purchase a batch of supplies, we can kill two birds with one stone.

The most important thing is that he plans to study the defense situation of the Black Leaf Sentinel Point.

This is considered the first gateway to the east of Magtan City.

The status is equivalent to the local transportation hub in Blue Star.

A long-distance teleportation array anchoring four space teleportation coordinates, coupled with a sturdy and impact-resistant defensive sentry point.

The above factors have given this place irreplaceable strategic value.

If we could capture this place and make it a corner with Magtan City, it would be no less than an expansion of the portal.

Magtan is in the western corner of the Kingdom of Duroa.

It is equivalent to a small place sandwiched in a corner. If you want to expand outward, you must capture this node.

Of course, the easiest way is probably to choose Jucheng directly.

However, this goal is too difficult and it is difficult to achieve results in a short period of time.

From a pragmatic point of view, taking the Black Leaf sentry point is the best choice.

Then, Magtan City and Black Leaf Outpost formed a large pocket.

The sentry point is the mouth of the bag, controlling internal and external relations, while Magtan City is the bottom of the bag.

At this time, Chen Xuan only needs to capture all the settlements and states between the sentinel point and Magatan City.

It is equivalent to unknowingly eating away about one-twelfth of the territory of the giant city of Attax.

The most important thing is that the forces can be connected together.

As they walked, Chen Xuan began to covet the Black Leaf Sentinel Point.

But this is normal. He always views the Naroa continent from the perspective of a pioneer.

Grabbing territory, grabbing people, and grabbing resources are all routine operations.

Especially in this world facing the invasion of monsters, if you don't have a piece of land of your own, you will really have trouble sleeping.

He shook his head and temporarily dismissed the distracting thoughts in his mind.

It would be too hasty to plot the Black Leaf Sentinel Point right now.

The most urgent task is to manage the territory of Magtan City first and make it a monolith.

After the demonic disaster breaks out in full force, there will be plenty of opportunities to pick up holes.

As a gabi, as long as you can survive, you will have a chance.

And he still has to train a few more gold-level backbones for Magatan City.

There are a lot of "old losers" in the city who have been in the silver level for many years, and they are all the best gold level reserves.

The premise is that he must obtain some pure [Demon Sources] as resources.

There are defense nodes one after another starting from ten kilometers outside the city of Black Leaf Sentinel.

These defense nodes vary in size and role in the war.

Among them are nodes responsible for blocking the advancement of monsters.

These nodes often consist of 2 to 4 defensive towers, supplemented by interconnected walls.

There is also a trap area set up on the periphery, mainly composed of various actively activated magic circles.

These defense towers were equipped with rune trebuchets.

What they throw is not stones, but rune bombs.

They are mainly divided into rune impact bombs and rune annihilation bombs, which are essentially magic shells.

The cost is high, with the cost of a single piece reaching more than 100 kronor.

A round of shooting often costs thousands of crowns.

The tower has a circular design with no blind spots, and a special crossbow is deployed.

The long-range [Insight] is displayed as [Tier 3 Storm Crossbow].

The bow arms of these [Storm Crossbows] are shorter and use a reciprocating string mechanism.

A box is mounted behind the crossbow chamber, which can accommodate 120 rune crossbow arrows as thick as a thumb.

When necessary, [Storm Crossbow] can shoot all 120 crossbow arrows in the crossbow box in one minute.

In other words, it is a rate of fire of 2 rounds per second.

Each tower is equipped with 12 [Tier 3 Storm Crossbows].

Theoretically, 1,440 crossbow arrows can be fired in one minute. The most important thing is that the crossbow box can be quickly replaced.

This design idea is somewhat similar to Blue Star's automatic firearms.

But in the final analysis, it has not broken away from the category of cold weapons.

Sitting on this mysterious treasure house of magic, the Naroa natives failed to develop a corresponding magical civilization.

Except for practicing with magic power, almost all other aspects are just superficial applications.

For example, alchemical potions, alchemical mechanical engineering, magic patterns, rune forging technology, etc.

In fact, the potential of magic technology is far from being tapped.

This couldn't help but make Chen Xuan feel a little sad.

However, the [Storm Crossbow] adapted to local conditions can be regarded as a small innovation of the indigenous people.

Compared with the giant crossbow with high power and low fire rate, this thing is already a rapid-fire weapon native to Naroa.

Other than that, there's nothing new.

There are about 120 garrison troops in each defensive tower, 80 of whom are crossbow shooters.

Among the remaining forty people, thirty-six were heavy infantrymen wearing heavy armor and holding chain-hook guns and square shields.

In addition, there are four spellcasters of different types.

Most of the strength levels of the garrison are Bronze-level, supplemented by 10 Silver-level squad leaders.

Calculated in this way, there are more than 400 troops stationed in four towers at a defense node.

As a defensive position deployed outside the city to slow down the advance of monsters, it is enough.

Such defense nodes are called "consumption points" by Chen Xuan.

In addition, there are other defense nodes with different functional types.

For example, the "detection point" guarding the magic tower and the "sniper point" built based on the [fourth-order magic cannon].

There are also "kill points" that can be used to strangle the front line of defense.

Many functions define different defense nodes, which ultimately form the peripheral defense line of the Black Leaf Sentinel Point.

The defensive nodes in these peripheral defense lines are like the spikes on the body of the armored dragon turtle.

The real carapace part is the main body of the two towers of the sentry point.

The construction of towers was common in the Kingdom of Duroa.

As the name suggests, the tower has the characteristics of both a wall and a building.

The width is usually 12~16 meters.

The middle building is hollow and can be used as an ordnance warehouse and a temporary resting place for sergeants.

The main garrison area is on the top of the city tower, where two to three carriages can travel in parallel, which can fully meet the requirements for deploying various city defense equipment and garrisoning guards.

Moreover, runes can be strengthened or magic circles can be arranged on the surface of the tower.

Its advantage is that it has excellent defensive effects, but its disadvantage is that its construction cost is much higher than that of a city wall.

Magtan City also built city towers, so it was able to achieve a relatively good defensive record during the demonic disaster.

At the most critical moment of the demonic disaster, the flame magic trap carved on the tower played an important role.

It hindered the continuous impact of the black-backed pigs and delayed the time for the city wall to be breached.

For defensive battles, the timeline is the lifeline.

You know, Magatan's tower was finally formed after years of construction.

After all, Magatan City also has a history of hundreds of Naraya years.

However, even if they are the same tower, there are differences in specifications.

The towers at Black Leaf Sentinel Point are much thicker and more solid than those at Magatan.

Moving along the road, Chen Xuan soon followed the flow of people to the first pass before entering the city.

Standing there, he could see the huge winding tower two kilometers away.

As the first tower facing the outside world from the Black Leaf Sentinel Point.

Its height is at least ninety meters, which is equivalent to the height of a thirty-story building in Blue Star.

The tower extends from north to south, and its entire body is blue-grey, even under the sun.

Viewed from the sky, the main urban area of ​​Black Leaf Sentinel Point is square.

The big square covers the small square, forming two lines of defense for the city tower.

After all, this is not a settlement. The sentinel point has a clear functional positioning from the early stages of construction.

It is also a very novel experience to stroll along the straight road outside the sentry point with the traveling merchants and farmers.

Chen Xuan is not only watching, but also observing and referencing.

Try to draw experience from the architectural layout of Black Leaf Outpost and use it to feed back the construction of Magatan City.

The continent of Naroa has been invaded by monsters for a long time and is facing the crisis of demon disaster.

The sentinel layout here is of great reference value.

They must have withstood the test of war.

In this regard, Chen Xuan has an attitude of learning with an open mind.

To be honest, when it comes to resisting demonic disasters, Blue Star's so-called advanced architectural layout is not necessarily as effective as these aboriginal layouts that have been tested in actual combat.

The four words "Adapt measures to local conditions" are enough to explain this problem.

Silently observing the layout and garrison situation of the outpost, he followed a group of traveling merchants into the outer pass.

From here, the entire outpost is surrounded by wooden fences.

Everyone must pass through the pass to enter the outer area of ​​the sentry point.

There have been more than ten trade markets and open-air markets, large and small.

Passing through the pass in an orderly manner, the process is very simple.

Just stand on top of something like a monitoring magic circle for a while.

This thing seems to be able to detect chaotic magic and identify whether there are spies disguised as monsters.

You must know that there are many types of monsters.

There are many demons among them who have the ability to change shape, possess, etc.

Such demons often disguise themselves as natives and sneak into outposts and cities.

Therefore, the Black Leaf Sentinel Site will have similar monitoring procedures.

There are three passes in each direction of the entire sentry point. Although there are only simple fences on the outside, there are groups of heavily armored knights patrolling in heavy armor with threaded lances hung on the sides of their horses.

On the surrounding towers, there are also elven archers with the eagle eye talent watching.

When it comes to the level of security, Magtan City cannot match it.

After all, Black Leaf Sentinel was born for war, so it still has some reputation.

After passing through the monitoring magic circle without incident, Chen Xuan officially entered the periphery of the Black Leaf Sentinel Point.

The straight road splits several ways here.

There is a city gate entrance leading to the sentry point and several nearby markets.

Chen Xuan was not busy going into the city and continued to wander around casually.

He did not forget that he was "fishing and walking the dog."

The blasphemous Charm Olga, who seemed to be running away, might be hiding in some nook and cranny at this moment, thinking about how to kill him.

There is the "scented bait" of [Wanyuan Order] that continuously attracts that guy's attention.

After standing there and watching for a moment, he chose to walk to an open-air shopping mall nearby.

Because of the existence of the long-distance teleportation array, the Black Leaf Sentinel Point has become a well-known material transfer point.

In the markets and shops here, bulk commodities are mainly traded.

The influence can cover settlements with a radius of nearly a thousand kilometers.

Therefore, the entire business environment is still very prosperous.

This is especially true in peacetime.

The store that Chen Xuan entered was called Black Leaf No. 7 Store.

Its name is just a code name, but it has no special meaning.

It also highlights the simple and straightforward style of Black Leaf Sentinel.

Although the name of the shop is inconspicuous, it is very lively inside and covers a large area.

It is indeed comparable to those large commodity wholesale markets in Blue Star.

Walking into the store along the entrance, you will see a scene of crowds of people and shoulder to shoulder.

The level of excitement is far from comparable to that of Magtan City.

The shopping mall is planned according to horizontal and vertical roads, as square as a chessboard.

The merchants here are not just street vendors.

Behind each merchant there are temporary straw shed warehouses or several heavy-duty caravans filled with goods.

It is worth mentioning that no one shouted in the shopping mall, and there was a sign in front of every merchant.

It states the main types of goods sold, the remaining quantity and the unit price.

The overall look is clear and simple.

The larger merchants even have their own emblems and signs.

What Chen Xuan felt here was that it had a very strong commercial atmosphere, and the volume of material turnover and trade was huge.

Not as underdeveloped as he thought.
