In the middle of the sacred mountain rising from the ground in the Black Iron Castle, there is a huge hollow space. Heller said that this structure can not only transform the place into a huge warehouse, but also save the Black Iron Castle. basic energy reserves.
Speaking of which, after Heller completed this space and terrain transformation, the basic energy reserves of the Black Iron Castle have almost bottomed out again. The burden of expanding the basic energy reserves of the Black Iron Castle still falls on Zhang Tie. on the shoulders.
The things Zhang Tie plundered in Tuokeyi City are all in the heart of the sacred mountain at this moment.
The entrance to the mountain is just to the north of the top of the mountain. There is a stone gate. When you walk inside, there are neat steps under your feet. On both sides of the walkway are two neatly glowing fluorite belts, which illuminate the inside so brightly that it feels like It's like entering a carefully constructed magical basement. The space and terrain transformation capabilities of the Black Iron Castle are indeed miraculous. Who could have imagined that these are all naturally generated. Especially the naturally occurring fluorite strips on both sides of the walkway. In Zhang Tie's opinion, this combination is simply perfect and unforgettable.
Walking on the neat steps, Zhang Tie suddenly remembered something and couldn't help but ask Heller, "By the way, Heller, can we build a castle on the top of the mountain? We can use the space and terrain transformation capabilities of the Black Iron Castle." , can you let a castle or palace grow here?"
"Of course, Lord Castle!" Heller replied as he walked down the steps. "Using the ability of the Black Iron Castle, we can generate the complete main structure of the castle or palace here, except for the furnishings and movable doors and windows inside. In addition to DIY manufacturing and installation, all inactive parts of the building can be generated through the ability to transform space and terrain, and you can also choose from a variety of building generation materials, which is comparable to humans pouring concrete and building with stone and steel. Much more convenient!”
"Great!" Zhang Tie became happy. "Don't you think the top of the mountain is getting more and more crowded now? If a few more people come, there won't be enough room on the top of the mountain!"
The several buildings on the top of the mountain are still the prefabricated houses that Zhang Tie left behind in Black Flame City, and they have not changed over the years.
"Does the Lord of the Castle want to bring someone in?"
"Well, we won't rule out this possibility in the future!" Zhang Tie replied vaguely, carefully calculating the time. At this time, I was almost going to be a father.
"As long as the Lord of the Castle provides enough basic energy reserves and merit points, it only takes a matter of minutes to build castles and palaces. Now the merit points are enough. But the basic energy reserves are already somewhat insufficient," Heller said.
"Oh, by the way, what is my merit value now?" Zhang Tie hadn't paid attention to his merit value for a long time, and he didn't bother to look at it. Instead, ask Heller directly.
"3287790" Heller said a very huge number.
"Ah. How come there are so many?" Zhang Tie was surprised.
"The Lord of the Castle rescued tens of thousands of human captives under the Forest of Fog and Moon into the Black Iron Castle, allowing them to avoid a tragic fate. In that time alone, the Lord of the Castle gained more than one million merit points. Coupled with the merit points gained by the Lord of the Castle from annihilating the demons in the Sernes War Zone in the past year, these add up to today’s figure!”
Zhang Tie knew clearly, "How much basic energy reserve is needed to complete a construction?"
"It depends on the needs of the Lord of the Fortress. The more basic energy reserves, the better. If it is exceeded, the Lord of the Fortress will have more choices. More things and building bodies can be built and generated!"
Zhang Tie nodded and stopped talking. He was thinking about what kind of building he wanted to build on the mountain. It was strange that he had not had this idea before, but now, after the idea came up, it became more and more important. It's getting stronger and stronger.
Zhang Tie thought to himself that maybe this was related to the fact that he was about to become a father and was about to become the father of several new lives.
When a man becomes a father, his thoughts will change a lot unconsciously. Take Zhang Tie as an example. The house he lived in was quite comfortable before and he didn’t think it was a small house. But now it seems a little inadequate. .
If a few more people come, where will they live? The world is so chaotic, who knows when his family will need to take refuge in the Black Iron Castle. As a man, when the holy war comes, he should think more and prepare more for his family - Zhang Tieru thought, and I secretly kept this matter in mind.
The last time I contacted my brother, I had just escaped from the imprisonment of the Senel family. At that time, my brother and the others had safely arrived in Yingzhou, one of the seventy-two states of Taixia in the Eastern Continent, and had initially settled down. Come on, the whole family is safe.
Fiona and Linda were okay, because the three women's bellies were already very big and they were not used to traveling too much. At the suggestion of their parents, my brother was buying real estate in Yingzhou at the time, and the family was planning to Settling down in Yingzhou first, he also wanted to get used to the customs and customs of Taixia, the Eastern Continent, and wait for Zhang Tie's three children to be born before considering whether to move to a more suitable place.
Because those three children will have the blood of their two awakened ancestors when they are born, which is different from all newly born children. This also determines that they will be somewhat different from ordinary people in their mothers' wombs. Normally A woman will give birth to a baby in ten months of pregnancy, but it takes Fiona and Linda twelve months to give birth. Their pregnancy period is two months longer than that of ordinary people. Calculating the time, those three The child will probably be born this month, maybe within the next few days.
Regarding this point, Zhang Tie had already vaguely mentioned it when contacting his elder brother, asking him to tell his parents so that they don't have to be careful, let alone wait until the ten-month-old baby is born before he has to worry about it. What steps should be taken to avoid self-defeating.
…
In just a few steps, Zhang Tie and Heller arrived at the heart of the mountain. In the heart of the mountain, except for a few golden gold ingots piled up like hills, there was nothing else. There are just thousands of boxes, large and small.
There are no locks on those boxes. There are only movable latches on the outside of the box. You can fiddle with them a few times with your hands. It can be opened without a key. Zhang Tie came to a box, opened the lock on the outside of the box with three clicks, and lifted the lid of the box at once.
The moment the lid of the box was opened, under the illumination of the two circles of fluorite light strips in the middle of the mountain, the light inside the box was reflected on Zhang Tie's body.
Damn... Zhang Tie almost cursed.
Inside this box are all bright blue stones that are as blue as the sea. Zhang Tie put his hand into the pile of stones and picked up a handful of all the stones. They were all the size of pigeon eggs, shining with a charming brilliance, and slid down from between Zhang Tie's arms.
"Is this... is this blue crystal?" Zhang Tie asked Heller after swallowing his saliva.
"No, these are very high-quality sapphires." Heller replied calmly.
Although we know that after the Cataclysm, the price of many gemstones has become cheaper than before the Cataclysm due to human development of the earth's crust. Although we know that the Principality of Titanic is rich in several kinds of gemstones. But gems are always gems. Even if they are cheaper, for ordinary people, gems, especially high-quality gems in good condition, are still expensive luxury goods, and their prices are far more than gold. If in a In the hands of the alchemist. These gems also exert other powerful effects.
Zhang Tie only knew about this box of sapphires. Its value is at least one million gold coins.
Zhang Tie was excited and opened several boxes at the back. Zhang Tie saw more than twenty boxes of the same sapphires. After the sapphires, there were several boxes of rubies, a box of diamonds, and a box of more precious colored diamonds. , a box of alexandrite, a box of cat's eye gems, and a box of variegated gems. Ever since he grew up, Zhang Tie has never seen so many gems placed in front of him, and they are still counted in boxes.
After those gems, what Zhang Tie saw were boxes of sixth-grade pyramid crystals, in various colors, and even the most precious black crystals.
After the crystal, there were boxes of sealed gold coins. There were hundreds of boxes. Zhang Tie was numb when looking at the gold coins. Later, after learning from Heller that there were gold coins in the box, Zhang Tie didn't even bother to look at it. Walked over.
After the gold coins were boxes of colorful jewelry and top-quality jewelry, as well as a box of emeralds.
After the jewelry, several small boxes measuring one foot square were placed in front of Zhang Tie. Zhang Tie opened one of the boxes and was stunned when he found neat finger-long silver bars inside.
"Why are there silver bars here? How many gold coins are these silver bars worth, and they are packed in boxes?" Zhang Tie was a little surprised.
"Master Lord, try picking up the silver nugget and you might know the reason!" Heller suggested from the side.
Zhang Tie glanced at Heller and picked up a silver bar. Zhang Tie was stunned when he picked up the silver bar, because the weight of the silver bar was too heavy, and gold of the same volume was not that heavy.
"Ah, what is this?"
"This is mithril, a more expensive metal that can only be mined in small amounts deep underground. The Lord of the Castle once had a mithril rune ring, which was a trophy you obtained from the battlefield. It was later auctioned at Karur’s auction house!”
After Heller's reminder, Zhang Tie suddenly remembered that it was indeed the case. This mithril was indeed a rarer thing than gold. His small mithril rune ring would finally be given to him. Brought a lot of money.
Needless to say, this box of mithril must be worth a lot of money, at least no less valuable than the previous box of sapphires.
…
When he arrived at the back, Zhang Tie opened a box of another size. Stacked inside that box were actually brand-new Jinpeng Bank gold notes of different denominations neatly packed together. The smallest denomination of the gold notes was 500 gold coins. The largest one was 10,000 gold coins. Looking at those gold tickets, Zhang Tie couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.
Damn it, could it be that all the wealth of the Principality of Titanic was finally plundered by the Senel family
Zhang Tie really guessed it right.
The centuries-old accumulation of the Titanic family, coupled with the property that the wealthy people in the principality had no time to withdraw after the outbreak of the Holy War, and the savings of ordinary people's families, finally fell into the hands of the Senel family, and Zhang Although these things in front of Tie are not all of those properties, they are also a very large part of them.
…
"To sum up your harvest this time, you have obtained a total of 540 tons of gold, 14.68 million gold coins, 47.6 million gold coupons, and more than 600 boxes of other various gemstones, jewelry and expensive metals. These things can be converted into cash. , the total value of gold coins and gold tickets is 83.88 million gold coins, and the valuation of the remaining items that cannot be converted into cash should be more than 130 million gold coins. As the jihad continues, there is still a lot of room for appreciation of those items."
Listening to the value of those things compiled by Heller, Zhang Tie once again understood what it means to be rich without a windfall and a horse to be fat without a night of grass. This vote was indeed the right thing to do, and in an instant he was promoted to 100 million. The ranks of millionaires.
Losing so much wealth at once was like digging out a large piece of bloody flesh from their bodies. It was a huge blow to the Senel family. Moreover, taking this wealth away from the hands of the Three-Eyed Society makes it impossible for the Three-Eyed Society to use this wealth to develop their power and do things that harm the human race. This is also a contribution to the jihad from the side. As long as it can weaken the enemy, it is a good thing.
This harvest and victory made Zhang Tie more determined on the path he wanted to take. Zhang Tie knew very well that if he was still following someone else's baton in the Sernes war zone at this moment, then he would never achieve such results.
Returning to the top of the mountain from the center of the mountain, Zhang Tie once again harvested two gifts from the small tree - a Fruit of Glory and a Fruit of Judgment.
The Fruit of Glory contained the combined mental power of Ruben and the other fishes killed by Zhang Tie. After eating the Fruit of Glory, Zhang Tie's mental power skyrocketed again.
What the Fruit of Judgment gave Zhang Tie was not something new, but an upgrade to the existing divine rune skills. After eating the Fruit of Judgment, Zhang Tie's restraint technique successfully advanced to the intermediate level. Has greater power.
The level of targets that can be attacked by the intermediate restraint spell has been increased from level seven to level eight. All targets at level eight and below cannot escape the restraint spell.
In addition to the increase in the level of targets that can be attacked, the maximum number of Zhang Tie's restraint chains has been increased from 18 to 27, and the attack radius has been increased from 17 cubits to 20 cubits. The combat power of the entire skill has been raised to a new stage.
…
After eating those two fruits, Zhang Tie understood that for him, the frightening Sanyanhui, as long as he cuts accurately and quickly, the offenders from the Sanyanhui are simply the best fat sheep. Even if you can't rob money, killing those guys can greatly increase your strength and harvest merit points and various fruits...
Should he return to the Sernes War Zone immediately, or should he continue to wander around the Principality of Titanic in search of the next opportunity to attack the Three-Eyed Society and the Sernes Family? Zhang Tie thought for a moment, and then made a decision. He would first go to the Sernes war zone to see the situation of Lan Yunxi and the guys on the Idiot, and then come back...
After staying in the Black Iron Castle for four or five hours, the Thunder Falcon transformed by Zhang Tie once again flew up from the cliff cave...
