Chapter 890 Ulysses' Plan
Zhang Tuohai drove leisurely back to the base.
At this time, various production and construction tasks in the base were being carried out in an orderly manner.
Buildings appeared one after another in the base. The prosperity of the base was constantly rising, and the area of influence of the base was constantly expanding. When Zhang Tuohai came back, it had expanded to the foot of the other side of the mountain and began to move towards the plain on the other side of the mountain.
“Good job.”
Zhang Tuohai was very satisfied with the development progress of the base, and then mobilized a group of people to strengthen the defense construction at the mouth of the canyon.
The base camp has been upgraded to level 3, and the prosperity of the camp has increased so much that the beast tide tonight will definitely be more violent than yesterday. The wooden fence is no longer enough, and a mixed wall of rock and steel is more suitable.
At the same time, defense on the sea must also be strengthened.
Zhang Tuohai rolled up his sleeves and gave orders, and the camp was bustling with activity.
At the same time, there was deathly silence in the base of the evil god Ulysses.
The evil god Ulysses was almost going crazy when he saw the bone fragments all over the ground.
He had played this game thousands of times, but this was the first time someone had caused him such heavy losses. They had actually destroyed his altar when it was not completed, turning his accumulation of several days into nothing.
That’s not all. What made him even more sad was that the branch mine was also taken away.
The great altar was gone, but it was entirely possible to rebuild it. However, the loss of branch mines and manpower really hit his weak spot.
Moreover, not only did they kill his miners, they also buried mines near the bodies, causing heavy losses to his personal guards, with a reduction of 60%.
Ulysses' heart was bleeding and a wave of resentment hit his forehead. At one point, he wanted to overturn the table and stop playing. However, the thought that he was forced to overturn the table on the third day was really a bit of a loss.
"Humph, I can't be the only one who suffers. Let you have a taste of what I feel."
Ulysses secretly opened the control console and increased Zhang Tuohai's beast tide tenfold.
"See how you survive tonight!"
Ulysses turned off the console triumphantly, then looked towards his camp, rolled his eyes and said, "What are you looking at? Clean up the camp quickly and report the damage to me!"
After saying that, Ulysses went into his room. Several pretty female slaves in the room saw Ulysses' angry look and immediately served him. Soon, heavy breathing and wailing were heard in the room.
When you have a lot of things to do, time always passes by like water.
Before we knew it, the sun was setting and another day was over.
Zhang Tuohai also made arrangements. He looked at the setting sun and the direction of Ulysses Camp, with a smile on his face. "If I remember correctly, the difficulty of the beast tide tonight will increase suddenly. Let me see if there is any change in this regard."
As the last rays of sunset disappeared over the horizon, bursts of noise were heard from the distant forest.
Then the sound became louder and louder, like thunder rumbling through the sky.
With the help of advanced night vision goggles, Zhang Tuohai saw groups of wild beasts rushing out of the forest and heading towards the canyon.
The raging herd of beasts rushed towards Zhang Tuohai's camp like a tide.
If Zhang Tuohai still maintained the same level of defense as last night, with wooden fences and trenches, he probably wouldn't be able to stop even a charge and would be trampled by the surging beasts, and then the camp would be flattened.
However, Zhang Tuohai, who is familiar with the process, has already improved his defense level in a targeted manner.
Huge stones and steel plates replaced the original wooden fence, and the height increased from three meters to ten meters.
Three Gatling guns blessed by runes kept firing, and large groups of beasts were torn into pieces.
But more beasts rushed over frantically to fill the gap left by the dead beasts, and continued to rush towards the defense line at the mouth of the canyon.
The Gatling gun kept firing, the rotation speed reached the maximum, and the barrel became hot, but there were too many beasts, and groups of beasts gradually approached the city wall.
The first beast to arrive at the city wall lay directly on the ground, and the following beasts lay on the body of the beast in front. Many beasts were stacked up layer by layer, and soon a slope was formed. Just as the subsequent beasts were preparing to attack along the slope, suddenly, the flaming stone sculptures on the city wall opened their eyes, and streams of flames spewed out of their mouths.
The slope leading to the top of the city wall instantly turned into a flaming hellish road.
The raging fire continued to lick the bodies of the wild beasts. Although a large number of wild beasts rushed up the slope regardless of their lives, their mortal bodies could not withstand the raging flames. Many animals were half-burned by the raging flames before they even got halfway up the slope and could only lie halfway on the road.
They became stumbling blocks for those who came later, and large numbers of animals were burned to death on this slope.
The slope that was originally built with bodies to capture the city wall turned out to be a meat grinder that buried them.
Zhang Tuohai stood on a watchtower, with his hands behind his back, looking at the scene in the distance, feeling neither sad nor happy.
He had seen the same scene too many times in his simulations and had long lost his sense of it.
He raised his hand and glanced at his watch: "The second wave should be here too."
As soon as he finished speaking, a large group of flying beasts descended from the sky like a dark cloud.
Flocks of golden eagles swooped down towards the camp, ready to attack the refugees in the camp.
However, the refugees in the camp had already hidden in the stone houses of the base camp under Zhang Tuohai's instructions.
Even the sala tree was given a stone shell.
The group of golden eagles circled the camp several times but couldn't find a target to attack.
Instead, Zhang Tuohai built a large number of flaming stone sculptures in the camp . If the golden sculptures were not careful, they would be burned into roasted chickens by the flaming stone sculptures hidden in the dark.
The smell of bones and meat made the refugees hiding in the stone house drool, and they all stared eagerly at the "roast chicken" all over the ground outside.
If it weren't for Zhang Tuohai's order, they would have rushed out to grab the roast chicken.
Not only was the golden eagle's attack thwarted, but the bats in the sky were also in a difficult situation.
These bats are specially bred. In addition to their ferocious temperaments and the ability to bite humans and livestock, they also carry a variety of highly infectious diseases. As long as they fly over an area, they can spread the virus, causing a large number of non-combat casualties among the refugees.
This is also the backup plan left by Ulysses.
In his opinion, even if Zhang Tuohai built the camp as solid as a rock and the beast tide could not break through, the level of medical treatment would certainly still be at the primary stage in a short period of time. Even if Zhang Tuohai rescued all the refugees, it would take a few days, which would invisibly slow down Zhang Tuohai's development speed.
However, the raging flames below made it impossible for the bats to attack. After all, no matter how powerful the virus was, it had no resistance in front of the flames and could be burned to ashes in an instant.
