After upgrading his engineering level to the sixth-level engineering grandmaster, Zhang Shan felt so happy.
It has only been over half a year since the game started, and he has upgraded his engineering level to level six.
I have to say, this speed is very fast.
There should be no players who have reached level six at the moment, right?
Although Zhang Shan did not try to find out.
But he estimated that no one could be faster than him.
Not to mention normal players, even players who specialize in life professions should not be able to reach level six.
Zhang Shan rushed his engineering level to level six in one go, once again leaving other players behind in the field of life professions.
Of course.
A lot of money was spent.
The gold coins that Zhang Shanhua has invested in engineering probably add up to several hundred million.
Although a large part of this money was paid by others.
For example, last time in order to defend Fengyun City, Zhang Shan helped Fengyun Tianxia build more than 30,000 intermediate arrow towers.
It cost hundreds of millions of gold coins just to buy materials.
But all this money was paid by Fengyun Tianxia.
Fengyun Tianxia bought the materials themselves and gave them to Zhang Shan, and he didn't have to pay a penny.
He just made it, it's artificial.
However, Zhang Shan’s engineering career did not always involve spending money.
This job also helped Zhang Shan earn some money.
The main thing was that Zhang Shandangshi got the blueprint for making fool bombs, and then he made them for a long time and put them up for sale at the auction house every day.
Just by selling fool bombs, he earned at least hundreds of millions of gold coins.
But now I can’t make money.
As the player's equipment and level increase, the effect of fool bombs becomes less and less.
The fool bomb that once sold for a thousand gold coins can now probably only be sold for a few dozen gold coins.
This amount of money is probably just enough to cover the material costs.
Later, Zhang Shan got too lazy to do it again.
This way of making money only lasted for a short period of time, but it was still okay. It made him earn nearly hundreds of millions of gold coins.
In general, Zhang Shan has invested a lot in his life and career, and has gained a lot.
Roughly speaking, he didn't lose much.
Moreover, products produced by engineering professions often have miraculous effects.
For example, the six-barrel Vulcan cannon and the intermediate arrow tower, as well as the Barbados cannon that will be made next.
If he hadn't learned his profession, he wouldn't have been able to make these city defenses.
Without these city defense equipment, it would not be so easy for Zhang Shan and Feng Yun Tian Xia to defend the city.
Especially now, Zhang Shan has to lead his friends to attack the demon city again.
If they hadn't had the Barbados cannon this time, they would have been unable to capture the demon city.
It is quite difficult to defend the city.
This is the benefit of advancing in life and career.
Many times it seems to have no effect, but it can work wonders at the critical moment.
Now Zhang Shan’s engineering profession has been promoted to the sixth-level engineering grandmaster, and his role will become more and more obvious in the future.
Maybe when he reaches two more levels and raises his life profession to level eight, he can create artifacts directly, right?
Just thinking about it makes me look forward to it.
After learning the blueprints for making the Barbados cannon.
Zhang Shan quickly withdrew from the guild workshop.
It's fine once you've learned it. As for building the Barbados cannon, we'll talk about it after they capture the demon city.
There's no rush now.
And Zhang Shan didn't have any materials.
If he had the materials, Zhang Shan wouldn't mind making a few to try his hand at.
But he didn't.
Moreover, Zhang Shan has no plans to go to the auction house to buy materials for building the Barbados Cannon for the time being.
This stuff is expensive.
The price of each material is about two or three hundred thousand gold coins.
To make the first Barbados cannon, you need to prepare at least hundreds of materials.
This is also a huge sum of money, about 20 to 30 million gold coins.
Zhang Shan didn't waste the gold coins.
He will wait until Fengyuntianxia and the others have bought the materials before making it.
After finishing the engineering level, Zhang Shan teleported to the guild warehouse.
Donate all the unused junk equipment in the backpack, including the orange musket just made, to the guild warehouse.
Then he cleaned his backpack and logged off from the game.
sleep.
Zhang Shan was afraid that he would go crazy if he didn’t maintain a good schedule after playing games online for so long every day.
…
The next day, Zhang Shan got up early, washed up, ate something, and logged into the game.
Standing near the warehouse in Dangyang City, Zhang Shan used the positioning beads to teleport to the beacon tower in the middle of the demon tribe’s small village.
As soon as he landed, countless powerful demon warriors rushed towards him frantically.
Grass.
An entire night had passed, and these powerful demon warriors had not dispersed yet, and were still surrounding the beacon tower.
Seeing such a scene, Zhang Shan felt a little helpless.
It seems that if they want to rush down the mountain and attack the demon city, it may not be that easy.
Zhang Shan held the hand cannon and opened fire at full power. Countless bullets swept towards the demon warrior in front of him like raindrops.
He had to first clear these demon warriors out of the beacon tower, and then block the entrance to the beacon tower.
Otherwise, when your friends enter the game later, they will probably be hacked to death by these monsters.
Under Zhang Shan's fierce firepower, the demon warriors in the beacon tower were quickly wiped out.
Zhang Shan blocked the entrance and slowly killed the monsters. He did not try to rush out.
Don’t be in a hurry for now. Wait until all the friends are here, then we’ll see what to do.
Anyway, they are, and we should think of a way to deal with it. It's not a good idea to keep doing this.
After a while, other friends came online one after another.
The little goblin asked Zhang Shan.
"Brother Guanzi, have you upgraded your engineering to level six?"
"Well, it's rising."
"Haha, that's good. Then we can start collecting materials and prepare to build the Barbados Cannon."
"Don't worry, we haven't captured the demon city yet."
At this time Fengyun Tianxia spoke.
"How can I not be anxious? Before I logged off last night, I had already sent the list of materials to someone else and asked them to help me collect the materials."
Zhang Shan was a little stunned when he heard Feng Yun Yidao's words.
Is this guy so anxious?
They haven't even touched the edge of the demon city yet, they just saw the city on the mountain. Is this guy already preparing the materials?
What if we fail to capture the demon city?
Then wouldn't the materials they prepared be useless?
If it is not for defending the city, what is the use of the Barbados cannon?
Shouldn't they wait until they capture the demon city before starting to collect materials?
Zhang Shan asked Feng Yun Yidao.
"You started collecting materials last night?"
"Yeah, I guess they've already bought quite a few by now."
"Well, you are really impatient."
After confirming with Fengyun Yidao again, Zhang Shan was speechless.
At this time Fengyun Yidao continued.
"I think it's better to make some preparations early, so that you don't have to buy materials at the last minute and get ripped off again."
“That’s true.”
Fengyun Yidao is right. They must have four cities that need the Barbados cannon.
The quantity required is quite a lot, so naturally a lot of materials are also needed.
If you go to buy things at the last minute, it is easy to get ripped off, so it is better to prepare some in advance.
…
After all the friends came online, everyone started to get a little impatient after browsing for a while.
The little goblin asked Zhang Shan.
"Brother Guanzi, we have no other options. Can we rush out?"
Zhang Shan looked at the densely packed demon warriors in front of him, and he felt helpless.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to lead everyone and rush out to attack the demon city.
And there are so many monsters around.
More importantly, Zhang Shan didn’t know that apart from these little monsters around them.
At the foot of the mountain, there are still many powerful demon warriors.
Although they had climbed up the platform to have a look, the distance was too far and they could not see any difference.
Anyway, it feels like there are a lot of monsters.
As for whether there are actually so many monsters, they couldn't figure it out.
In response to the little goblin's question, Zhang Shan replied.
"We need to find a way to rush out. It's not a good idea to keep spawning monsters like this. Go up to the high platform and take a look to see which direction has fewer monsters. Let's try to rush out."
"Okay, I'll go up and take a look."
Without waiting for Zhang Shan to finish speaking, the little goblin excitedly ran to the platform to check.
After a while, Xiao Yao quickly returned to Zhang Shan, and she said depressedly.
"It's the same everywhere. There are monsters everywhere. It's impossible to tell which direction has fewer monsters."
"Fuck, what should we do? Are there more monsters coming towards us?"
"This shouldn't happen. Cruz has been dead for so long, the number of these summoned monsters shouldn't increase any more."
"But why is it that even though we have been clearing for so long, the number of monsters hasn't decreased?"
"Maybe we didn't brush fast enough."
"That's true. These max-level demon warriors are very difficult to kill. Even a six-barrel boss needs two shots to kill him."
"Yeah, we can't chop them anymore. We have to chop more than ten times to kill a small monster. This monster spawning speed is really not fast enough."
Since the levels of these demon warriors are much higher than theirs, their monster-killing speed cannot be increased at all.
If it were like normal, Zhang Shan would kill monsters instantly, so he wouldn't have to worry about being surrounded by monsters.
Because as long as he farms enough, he can kill all the monsters no matter how many there are.
But here, although his recent attack power has almost increased exponentially.
But Zhang Shan still couldn’t do it and kill the monster with one shot.
He had to fire two shots.
This monster spawning speed is indeed a bit too slow for them.
The monster spawning speed is not fast, and the speed at which they clear monsters may not be as fast as the speed at which the monsters increase.
This resulted in them being surrounded by people even though they had been here for so long.
But no matter what, they have to rush out and can't just keep killing monsters here.
It's so boring to kill monsters here.
These demon warriors are not easy to spawn, and the experience they give is not much.
Even if it is for leveling up, you shouldn't spawn monsters here.
Killing monsters and leveling up here is totally inefficient.
Not to mention, their purpose of coming here was not to upgrade, but to attack the demon city.
Zhang Shan said after thinking carefully for a while.
"Let's rush out together. Please protect Old Wu."
"Boss, are you sure? With so many monsters, can we get out?"
"Even if you can't get out, you have to charge. Just make sure to protect Old Wu and make sure he doesn't die. If he dies, you won't be able to get him."
"Don't worry, even if I die, I won't let the knife-wielding brother fall to the ground."
"Well, I'll lead the way, you guys follow closely."
Zhang Shan thought about it for a long time and decided to rush out first. No matter whether he could do it or not, he had to give it a try.
Anyway, as long as Boss Wu doesn't die, it won't have much impact even if everyone else dies.
The others fell, but Boss Wu was still able to revive them and pull them up.
After discussing for a while, Zhang Shan took the lead and rushed towards the group of monsters, followed closely by his friends.
Zhang Shan held the hand cannon and the bullets kept sweeping towards the surrounding demon warriors.
A large number of demon warriors fell to the ground, but more demon warriors were still rushing towards them.
Zhang Shan didn't care and just kept shooting. After killing a group of monsters, he took a few steps forward.
Boss Wu and the Little Fairy followed closely behind him, while Fengyun Yidao and Xin Sui Wo Dong were responsible for covering the rear.
They moved outside with difficulty and finally reached the gate of the village with great effort.
But after reaching here, they could no longer move forward.
The number of powerful demon warriors stuck at the entrance of the village is ridiculous.
Even though Zhang Shan fired fiercely, he still couldn't kill the monsters.
There were endless monsters, and as soon as he knocked down a group, a new group would quickly squeeze in.
No one knew why these powerful demon warriors were rushing into the village without caring about their lives.
They were trapped at the door and the situation was extremely critical.
If they cannot move forward, Fengyun Yidao and Xin Suidong, who are responsible for the rear guard, will soon be unable to hold on.
Because behind them, there are still a large number of demon warriors.
Seeing this situation, Zhang Shan couldn't help but get angry.
Damn it, even though he is so powerful now, he is still helpless against a group of monsters?
Seeing that there were more and more monsters around, Zhang Shan decisively opened fire at full power and was determined to kill his way out.
He activated the Berserk and Frenzy skills, and also activated the Shadow Clone skill.
The three Zhang Shans lined up in a row, and countless bullets swept towards the demon warriors at the gate of the mountain village.
Under Zhang Shan's fierce firepower attack, he quickly opened a gap among the demon warriors blocking the entrance of the mountain stronghold.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhang Shan and his friends quickly rushed out of the mountain village and began to move down the mountain.
After rushing out of the mountain village, Zhang Shan suddenly felt the pressure relieved.
Although it seems that the monsters around here are not much fewer than before in the middle of the mountain village.
But Zhang Shan felt that it would be easier for them to display their skills in this open space.
They were moving much faster than before in the mountain village.
It is no longer like before, where every step forward requires a lot of effort.
Seeing this situation, Fengyun Yida shouted happily while swinging his axe wildly.
"Haha, it looks like we can get out."
"Well, we should be able to rush out now."
"Haha, hurry up and rush towards the demon city. I want to be the city lord."
"By the way, which of the four demon cities should we attack first?"
"What's the difference? Just pick one and do it."
"All right."
Zhang Shan didn't think too much and rushed towards the nearest demon city.
Time passes slowly.
After about two hours, they finally reached the foot of the mountain.
Although there are quite a few demon monsters here.
But compared to before, these monsters are nothing.
Zhang Shan and his friends quickly rushed towards the nearest demon city.
Before, when they stood on the high platform, they could see four demon cities.
But this does not mean that these demon cities are very close to them.
That's just because they stand high and see far.
After they left the mountain village, they basically could not see any trace of the demon city.
Zhang Shan just rushed forward in the direction determined previously.
As they gradually moved away from the hill, the monsters around them became fewer and fewer.
Of course.
The scarcity mentioned here is only relative.
Compared to when they didn't fight the boss, there are still a lot of monsters around.
At least they were riding horses, so they couldn't run fast and had to kill monsters along the way.
But this is already very good.
Although they couldn't ride fast, they were able to move forward while clearing monsters, so their speed was still acceptable.
At least for now, they no longer have to worry about being surrounded by monsters.
Although there are quite a few monsters now, Zhang Shan’s powerful firepower cannot stop them from advancing.
After a while, Zhang Shan could vaguely see the shadow of the demon city in the distance.
Zhang Shan said to his friends.
"Come on, we'll be able to start attacking the city soon."
"Haha, after two days of hard work, we are finally reaching the edge of the demon city."
"Everyone, hurry up and rush to the edge of the demon city."
Fengyun Yida shouted excitedly.
"Go, go, go, I'm going to rush into the demon city and kill the Boss."
"Come on, you're the only one who wants to kill the Boss?"
"Don't listen to his bragging. With his small body, the boss can turn him into ashes in a single blow."
"Fuck, can't I just think about it?"
"Okay, let's kill the monsters quickly and don't disturb his dream, hehe."
As everyone moved forward quickly, they soon arrived near a demon city.
Zhang Shan looked at the demon city in the distance.
The city gate was wide open, with two teams of guards each guarding one side of the gate.
A large number of powerful demon warriors were constantly coming and going through the city gate.
The plaque above the city gate has the two big characters "Dongwei" written on it.
Demon clan's East Guard City.
After such a long battle, they finally saw what the demon city looked like.
I have to say that this Demon Clan East Guard City is very large.
Zhang Shan looked around and saw the tall city walls stretching endlessly, with no end in sight.
If the Demon-Suppressing City is just a small city of five miles, then Fengyun City is a big city of ten miles.
Then this Demon Clan East Guard City is a huge city with a radius of fifty miles.
This is just Zhang Shan’s guess. Perhaps this Demon Clan East Guard City is even bigger.
From here, they could only see one side of the wall of the Demon Clan’s East Guard City.
As for the other three walls, they had no idea what they were like.
Because from their angle, they could not see the other three walls of East Guard City at all.
After they continued running for a while, Zhang Shan stopped about five or six hundred meters away from Dongwei City.
Fengyun Yidao asked curiously.
"Boss, why don't you leave?"
Zhang Shan said to Feng Yun Yidao.
"Look at the tower, aren't there two cannons there?"
After Zhang Shan's reminder, Feng Yun Yidao quickly looked up to the sixth floor of Dongwei City.
Soon, Fengyun Yidao said in surprise.
"Is that the Barbados gun?"
"I don't know, but we have to be careful. If it's really a Barbados cannon, it will be difficult to deal with. The Barbados cannon has a range of 500 yards, and a shot has a damage range of 50 yards. It's quite powerful."
"No way, how could the demons have the Barbados Cannon? Doesn't the blueprint say that this is a city defense cannon invented by a human master craftsman?"
"What's so strange about this? The demons have seized so much human territory, so it's normal for them to steal a few cannons."
"Indeed, even the blueprints for the Barbados cannon fell into Cruise's hands. It is normal for them to have several cannons."
"Well, that makes sense logically."
"What should we do now? The Barbados cannons are so powerful. How can we rush to the city gate?"
"Nah, we can't even get close to the city gate, how can we attack the city?"
"Just because you can't get close doesn't mean others can't get close to the city gate. Brother Guanzi is here, so why worry?"
"That's right, Boss Liuguan, it's up to you."
Zhang Shan looked at the Demon Clan’s East Guard City in the distance and the two-and-six cannons on the city gate tower.
To be honest, he was a little panicked.
It’s a bit difficult to handle.
The sight of these two cannons made him feel a little daunted.
