Chapter 275: Chapter 211: Protective Characteristics! Investigate the ck Mist!
“Arrow tower construction blueprint, what a shame that we don’t have enough resources!”
Zheng Cheng put it away and murmured, “Besides, with me here, these ck-skinnedrvae pose no threat at all. There’s no rush to build.”
“The priority now is to upgrade the home level and increase the poption limit!”
The second wave of attack left Zheng Cheng with 78 units of iron ore, 7 units of life crystals, and 2 units of space crystals.
We have enough iron ore. What we stillck are space crystals!
Over another hourter, Zhang San and others had collected over a hundred units of wood. The third wave of attack arrived again.
This attack shockingly saw the appearance of the elite units of the ck-skinnedrvae!
Four ck-skinnedrvae, half a person’s height tall, with iron armor growing out of their heads.
Unfortunately… for Zheng Cheng, they posed no threat at all.
In just over ten minutes, he wiped out all the attacking ck-skinnedrvae!
The attack left him with 123 units of iron ore, 15 units of life crystals, and 7 units of space crystals.
The resources needed for upgrading the home level are enough!
Besides, from the bodies of the four elite ck-skinnedrvae, four arrow tower blueprints were dropped.
And 34 hearts of ck-skinnedrvae were dissected.
Zhang San and others have improved to LV2, earning 1 free attribute point.
Under Zheng Cheng’smand, they all added these attribute points to their physique.
The higher their physique, the stronger their defense, the higher their resistance to abnormal states, and the longer they can live.
Zheng Cheng ced his hand on the home crystal: “Upgrade!”
With amand, 100 units of iron ore and 10 units of space crystals immediately melted into the home crystal.
The entire home crystal was then covered in a ray of light.
Simultaneously, Zheng Cheng once again wielded his hand, and chose to use all five blueprints for the arrow towers.
In the central region of the ck fog and the home, an arrow tower was built in each of the five directions.
Five faint rays of light flickered again.
Zhang San and the others took the opportunity to rest for a while.
Soon, an hour passed in a sh.
The home crystal was sessfully upgraded to LV2!
The crystal did not change much, but the hall where the crystal was ced turned from a thatched hut into arge wooden house, which looked very safe.
[Name: Home Crystal]
[Attribute: Spatial Rift]
[Function: Summon corresponding racial life]
[Host: Zheng Cheng]
[Level: LV2]
[Current Units: 10/50]
[Resources: Timber*185, Iron Ore*44, Life Crystal*27]
[Affiliated Buildings: Arrow Tower*5]
[Durability: 500/500]
[Hint: Need 500 units of iron ore, 100 units of space crystals to upgrade to LV3]
The unit limit has increased, we can summon new types of soldiers now!
And we can summon two-star soldiers.
When he opened the summonable soldiers, a sh of light appeared, and a page of attributes immediately appeared.
[Current Summonable Unit 1: Swordsman.]
[Swordsman: Two-star soldier, strength specialty, with his own weapon and shield, 1 unit of life crystal required for summoning.]
[Current Summonable Unit 2: Archer.]
[Archer: Two-star soldier, agility specialty, with his own longbow and 10 arrows, 1 unit of life crystal required for summoning]
[Current Summonable Unit 3: Heavy Infantry.]
[Heavy Infantry: Two-star soldier, stamina specialty, with his own cart and broadsword, 1 unit of life crystal required for summoning.]
Only three two-star soldiers can be summoned on the current page.
They are Swordsmen, Archers, and Heavy Infantry.
Zheng Cheng thought for a while and immediately made a decision.
He now has 27 units of life crystals, and all three two-star soldiers need to be summoned.
Five Arrow Towers, with 10 units of Archers stationed.
The Heavy Infantry can be used to cut and transport wood, as well as clean up the battlefield.
Zhang San and the others are just ordinary one-starborers after all. Letting them cut trees may be okay, but cleaning up the battlefield is a bit slow.
As for the possible presence of a Swordsman, he made up his mind to explore the ck Fog and must leave enough troops to guard the home.
“Summon ten units of Swordsmen, ten units of Archers, seven units of Heavy Infantry!”
As soon as he finished speaking, 27 human shadows flickered and appeared beside Zheng Cheng.
Soon, the flickering light disappeared, and the 27 human shadows appeared all at once.
Among the 27 people, three immediately stepped forward and knelt respectfully in front of Zheng Cheng.
“Subordinates, Niu Jin Dao/Yang Hou’er/Chen Zhong, pay respect to the lord!”
Looking at these 27 people, Zheng Cheng shook his head slightly.
Ordinary soldiers, no heroes.
But he still reached out and gently helped them up: “Get up.”
“Thank you, lord!”
“Yang Hou’er!”
“Here!”
“You lead the archers under yourmand to station in the five arrow towers, each arrow tower equipped with 8 units of iron ore, to guard the home!”
“Yes, sir!”
Zheng Cheng continued, “Chen Zhong!”
“Here!”
“You lead your soldiers and cut and transport wood at the fastest speed, and station at the edge of the forest, ready to follow orders at any time.”
“Yes!”
Seeing that the leaders of the other two teams had received their orders, Niu Jin Dao became anxious: “Lord! Monkey and others have tasks, what about us?”
“Don’t worry!”
Zheng Cheng said, “Your mission is the most important, exploring the ck Fog with me!”
“What?!”
The three of them widened their eyes in astonishment, terrified.
Exploring the ck Fog?
This is a suicidal mission!
Zheng Cheng assured them, “Don’t worry, we’re just going to examine the edge of the ck Fog, not venture deep into it.”
Niu Jindao gritted his teeth and said, “My lord, rest assured, even if you are really deep into the ck fog, we won’t so much as furrow our eyebrows!”
“Good!”
Zheng Cheng, leading Niu Jindao and ten other sword and shield bearers, headed towards the western forest area.
With the extermination of the third wave of ck-skinned worms, the home area actually doubled!
This revealed a more extensive area of thend along with its forest.
Meanwhile, Zheng Cheng took this opportunity to detect a special presence from the Central Radar Life Monitoring Technique.
Deep in the western forest, aside from the presence of arge number of ck-skinned worms, a giant valley entrance surprisingly appeared within around 2 kilometers of the home area.
There, arge number of ck-skinned worms were gathering, along with another kind of Alien Beast draped in ck armor.
The ck Armored Worm.
As long as the area of the ck-skinned worms and ck Armored Worms is thoroughly cleaned up, and the entrance to the valley is upied, it can block the attacks of Alien Beasts from the west.
By then, he only needs to face the attacks of Alien Beastsing from the east, south, and north!
Most importantly—passive defense is not his style.
Moreover, the speed and number of resources acquired were too slow and too few.
Only by taking the initiative can we seize the advantage and obtain arge amount of materials and resources!
Along the way, Zheng Cheng checked the specific attributes of these ten sword and shield bearers.
[Name: Niu Jindao]
[Race: Human]

“With these four-dimensional attributes, they could be called seasoned veterans! Moreover, they are of a two-star rank, each level up would grant them 2 free attribute points…”
Zheng Cheng pondered and quickly led them closer to the forest in the west.
“Sir!”
Zhang San, who was cutting trees, saw Zheng Cheng leading arge group of people and hurried to greet him.
“Are these people…panions?”
“Correct!”
Zheng Cheng nodded and said, “I am going to take people to investigate the ck fog. The five arrow towers have been built sessfully. When the next wave of Alien Beasts attack, you can station yourself in the homnd with the five arrow towers as the core. Understand?”
“Yes, my lord!”

[Attribute: Defensive Building]

[Durability: 100/100]
[Hint: Need 20 units of iron ore and 20 units of wood to be upgraded to LV2]
Eleven people arrived inside the forest, where the faint ck fog was permeating.
But it seemed to be blocked by some mysterious power, rolling incessantly but unable to get close.
Between the two, there seemed to be a transparent film blocking the ck fog.
Within the Central Radar Life Monitoring Technique, there were ck Armored Worms present in a range of just ten meters from them!
“Follow me!”
Zheng Cheng ordered, plunging unhesitatingly into the ck fog.
“Wuu~”
A sudden strange friction sound rang out, and a faint purple light suddenly emerged from Zheng Cheng’s body, blocking all the ck fog that wasing at him!
[You have entered the special map: Corrosive ck Fog Territory!]
[Your four-dimensional attributes will decrease due to the influence of the Corrosive ck Fog…]
[Ssss…]
[Your Body Shield Penicillin Parasite Body Shield is activated, blocks the ck fog, and neutralizes the effect of the Corrosive ck Fog!]
A series of mechanical sounds rang out, and Zheng Cheng’s eyes brightened slightly.
The Penicillin Parasite Body Shield can block the ck fog!
At that moment, another heavenly warning sound came.
[Your skill Penicillin Parasite Body Shield has been upgraded to LV3!]
[Penicillin Parasite Body Shield (External/LV3): Change Ability, your physical constitution undergoes permanent change, you can passively engulf any elements close to your constitution in any state, and while strengthening yourself, you can automatically produce resistance to any adverse environment and form into a permanently existing body shield, protecting yourself.]
[You have activated the first characteristic of your Penicillin Parasite Body Shield!]
[Characteristic 1: Group Addition. Your Penicillin Parasite Body Shield can be added to multiple targets, the more spiritual power you consume, the more targets it can be added to.]
“Hmm?”
Zheng Cheng was moved, “It can be added to other people?”
Outside the ck fog.
One of the subordinates asked, “Captain, are we really going in?”
Niu Jindao took a deep breath and said, “The lord has already entered, are you still hesitating?”
“Captain, this ck fog is highly poisonous, we ordinary people can’t persist in it even for two hours. What if…”
“Shut up!”
Niu Jindao shouted angrily, “We were chosen by the lord to be here, to stand against Alien Beasts and to protect the women and children behind us!”
“If we can investigate the source of the Alien Beast in the ck fog, our death is worth it!”
“Follow my orders! Enter!”
“Yes, Captain!”
With Niu Jindao in the lead, the ten men gritted their teeth and stepped into the ck fog!
Just as they stepped into the ck fog, a deep purple light suddenly descended from the sky, enveloping the ten men.
The supposed stinging sensation on their skin, eyes, and throat suddenly disappeared.
“Huh?”
