Sui Xiong stayed in the sky above Keen Territory for almost a week. He carefully checked the situation in Keen Territory and found that there was really nothing he needed to help here. Everything is on track, and there is no shortage of positions. There have been no natural or man-made disasters recently, and there are no enemies around.

If the country is peaceful and the people are safe and the weather is smooth, there is no need for gods to bless you.

Sui Xiong felt a little disappointed, but he couldn't let others suffer for his own psychological satisfaction. There was no such thing in the world!

So after walking around twice in Keen's territory, he had nothing to do and took back the clone and continued to concentrate on building the Rye Fortress.

The original Rye Fortress was strong enough, but it was only strong. There are no adequate means of defense either externally or internally. Except for the strong high wall, there is almost nothing that can be taken out.

Sui Xiong first expanded its scale and designed two rings of inner and outer city walls. The outer city wall was slightly lower and the inner city wall was higher. There was a fairly wide distance between the two walls. This was the so-called "barbican city" design. .

Not only that, Sui Xiong also placed ballistas on the outer city wall and catapults on the inner city wall. Large-scale crossbows and counterweight catapults have long been invented in this world, but few people would put such powerful weapons on city walls. Few cities have walls that are wide enough to accommodate such a big guy.

But for Sui Xiong, these are not problems.

Although very redundant.

The walls of New Rye Fortress are ridiculously high. The slightly lower outer city wall is at least twenty-five or six stories high, and the inner city wall is about ten meters higher than the outer city wall. Not to mention anything else, this towering city wall alone can make any attacker despair.

There are all kinds of siege equipment in the world, but how can there be any siege equipment in the world that can face such an ultra-high city wall? It is difficult for a wooden ladder to reach this height - if the ladder is high enough, it will naturally be quite heavy. After it reaches a certain level, its own weight will make it unbearable. It's really not easy to find wood that's strong enough.

As for catapults or other things, they can't exert much power when faced with such a height. If there are no obstacles, it is probably not difficult to build a giant catapult to hit stones so high, but there are also obstacles on the city wall. When the catapults and crossbows are fired at each other, everything on the ground will be dead, and they will die miserably, extremely miserably, and horribly!

Among other things, after Sui Xiong repaired this crazy super city wall, he once tested a catapult on the city wall. He found that the target on the ground was already too small. If his vision was limited to the mortal level, he could only see it. Little black dots...

This city wall is not only extremely high, but also extremely strong. The walls are made of special stones selected by Sui Xiong from the rock plane, and they have been strengthened by him to make them extremely hard. Not to mention smashing rocks or something like that, even if a heavy battle ax with refined weapons was struck hard, it would only throw up a few sparks, leaving a white mark that would disappear with a gentle wipe with your hand.

In order to prevent the attackers from using earthquake spells and other spells to destroy the city wall, Sui Xiong also strengthened the foundation. The scope of his strengthening was extremely wide. Not to mention the earthquake spells of ordinary high-level mages, even legendary strongmen used "magic legends" Even though the Earthquake Technique has been transformed into a legend, it is impossible to shake this terrifying city wall and foundation.

"I think this fortress is strong enough." Morani, who came to visit the fortress out of curiosity, sighed after looking at it carefully, "As long as there are no problems inside the fortress, I can't imagine any mortal army could give it to Break through.”

"Really?" Sui Xiong asked.

"Of course! This city wall is simply crazy! If I had seen such a wall on the opposite side when I led the troops to fight, I would have sighed and retreated." Morani smiled and shook his head, "It is impossible to defeat it. "

Sui Xiong's eyes lit up, he waved his tentacles and wrote the words "Wall of Sighs" on the city wall.

"To break through this wall, you need to gather twelve golden and handsome men of various colors, and then burn everyone's will into a ray of sunshine to drill a hole in it..."

As he was talking incessantly, Morani coughed twice and raised his fingers to the sky.

Sui Xiong looked up and saw blue sky, white clouds and bright sunshine.

"Nima! Can we still have fun playing..."

After being struck by the bright sunshine, Sui Xiong stopped working on the city wall that was destined to be unable to perform "Twelve Golds Crash Through the Wall of Sighs", and instead pondered the issue of air defense.

This world has an air force, and it's not small. On the decisive battlefield of the "Battle of the Day the Sun Dies", both the Orc Empire and the Eagle Kingdom assembled more than a thousand air forces. Especially the Eagle Kingdom. At its peak, it claimed to have three thousand air cavalry under its command. Although there are not many Griffin Knights and Giant Eagle Knights among them, most of them are Griffin Sentinels and Giant Eagle Sentinels that are not suitable for legion combat, but in any case, they are definitely the Air Force.

To deal with the air force, the most reliable way is to send out the air force as well, but how many air forces can be stationed in a mere fortress? Therefore, Sui Xiong decided to put more effort into air defense.

But here comes the problem - just as the walls of this New Rye Fortress are high enough to make the attackers despair, the flying altitude of those air forces is also high enough to make the people on the ground despair.

Facing an enemy flying at least four to five hundred meters in the air, ground troops really have no choice but to be beaten unilaterally.

Not to mention in this world, even on Earth, unless heavy weapons such as anti-aircraft guns are used, ordinary firearms are completely useless against enemies of this height.

Of course, if the marksman uses a high-level enchanted bow and arrow, he may not be able to shoot that high. But the number of such bows and arrows is rare, and the number of sharpshooters who can control them is also rare. Compared with the air force, the number is not at the same level at all.

So Sui Xiong thought about it and felt that he should work on pure defense.

Half a month later, a huge sloping roof enveloped the entire fortress.

The air force's attack method is nothing more than throwing rocks from the sky. This roof is attached with a special spell. Let alone stones, even rain and snow cannot stick to the roof. No matter how many stones the enemy throws down, they will only roll along the roof and outside the fortress.

As for "breaking the roof"... Facing the perverted fortress that had been "integrated" by Sui Xiong with magic, and its power would be evenly dispersed no matter what attack, Sui Xiong really didn't believe that someone could use stones to smash the roof. broken.

Want to smash it? Okay, let’s talk about it after carrying a mountain!

If you really face a strong man who can move mountains and seas, then all fortresses are useless, and there is no need to consider "defense".

After completing these two main facilities, the first phase of Sui Xiong's fortress renovation work was finally over, and what was left was the meticulous interior decoration.

Seeing the empty fortress with only a bare frame, Sui Xiong couldn't help but rub his tentacles and laughed with anticipation.

"This time, I must create a scenic spot that people will never forget after visiting it once!"
