472: Chapter 472: Establishing a Foothold by the River 472: Chapter 472: Establishing a Foothold by the River Seeing this state of affairs, Elena was very satisfied.
“Very well, you want military achievents, right?
Those Magic Beasts and Undead Mages opposite us are exactly that.
If you want them, follow and let’s go get them.” Upon hearing this, the Werewolves were instantly roused, howling excitedly.
Elena was like an alpha wolf leading a pack of cubs, charging madly towards the enemy.
Along the way, the further north they went, the more Magic Beasts they encountered.
However, in the face of such a steel torrent, there was absolutely no way to stop it.
Wherever the Wolf Cavalry passed, they left behind the corpses of Magic Beasts.
Of course, the corpses were not wasted, as the teams that followed closely behind would collect these corpses and transport them back.
After all, the materials from the bodies of Magic Beasts were extrely valuable.
When Zhao Guang learned of this news, he was quite emotional.
Elite Cavalry equipped with the finest weapons and armor posed an enormous threat.
Zhao Guang himself was unconcerned because he knew they would not threaten him.
However, if the Human Nobles within learned of this, they would probably be terrified.
Forget it, let them be frightened on their own.
What does it have to do with ?
After all, nominally, these Werewolves were his subordinates, not those of the Beastn.
If they had the skills, let them also subdue a force of Beastn or create better weapons and armor.
“Xi Fei, you take the construction team and go.
Try to complete it quickly.
This outpost might beco our front line base in the future,” Zhao Guang imdiately dispatched Xi Fei.
“Then, Master, you must reward properly when I return,” Xi Fei said.
Zhao Guang waved his hand: “I wish I could, but do you think it’s possible with the way I look right now?”
Zhao Guang, dressed in penguin attire, couldn’t take off this outfit and was unable to do anything.
To be honest, doing that sort of thing in such gear was extrely uncomfortable for anyone.
Rember, the pressure constantly emanating from the Bimong Heart had not disappeared.
Zhao Guang was accustod to it, but Xi Fei would definitely be affected if she were too close.
“Hmph, I will rember that anyway,” Xi Fei turned and left.
The place was not very far from the river across the border.
Even the transport team could reach it in no ti at full pace.
If his territory had not been too small, Zhao Guang would not have felt any logistical pressure.
Upon arrival, Xi Fei saw Elena and her troops charging back and forth across from them.
A portion of the Wolf Cavalry would stop to rest.
Once the ones in front returned, they would take over, thus forming three waves of attacks, which also allowed for rest periods.
However, there were still slightly too many Magic Beasts on the other side.
Although not continuous, they kept coming sporadically.
“It seems that sothing major has indeed happened in the North.
How is the situation here, Elena?” Xi Fei asked.
Elena lifted her helt: “It’s manageable, we can hold on.
How long will it take you to finish the construction?” Elena replied.
At this point, the people who had arrived later had already started working.
It was just an outpost, after all, which didn’t need too much effort to build.
Following the blueprints, so had already begun excavating the ground.
This group included many with Combat Energy.
The shovels, empowered by Combat Energy, made the frozen hard ground seem like cake, easily dug through.
Among the first to cultivate Combat Energy, Zhao Guang had assigned so to the construction team.
It wasn’t so much an assignnt as it was that working in construction made earning achievents easier, and these places were obtained in exchange for achievents.
As long as one had decent talent, they could now cultivate Combat Energy.
When it cos to the quantity and proportion of warriors among the subjects of his territory, Xuanwu Territory was probably higher than most.
Looking at these people, Xi Fei calculated, “Seven days, it should take about seven days to complete the construction.
If we’re quick, so features could be usable in three days.”
What they were building was not rely a lookout post, but a small fortress made of stone.
Because of the cent and with Xi Fei’s flas for baking, the speed would be very fast.
Indeed, Zhao Guang asked for Xi Fei specifically to speed up the solidifying process.
It was a pity that if Mokli, the Earth Mage, ca over, the speed could be even faster.
But he had stated he would only lend a hand in battles, and left construction work to his apprentices.
But those apprentices were truly not as quick as Xi Fei in this regard.
They would wait until the large-scale construction started before calling on their assistance.
“No problem, seven days is nothing,” Elena said, unconcerned.
With the current intensity, not to ntion seven days, even seven months would be fine.
Elena was worried that the intensity would keep increasing and that there might even be Undead Mages appearing later on.
Although on the surface they all looked down on Mages, everyone knew the Mages were powerful.
Especially Undead Mages, these types of Mages could have powerful effects on the battlefield, surpassing regular Mages.
After exchanging a few instructions, they imdiately started working together.
Digging trenches, filling them with cent, followed by burning flas.
The control required for these flas was very demanding, as it was easy to make mistakes.
And under such training, Xi Fei’s ability to control flas was getting stronger and stronger.
Gradually, Xi Fei could feel her own limits beginning to loosen.
If she continued on this path, it wouldn’t take long before she could attempt to break through to the ranks of an Advanced Magician.
By then, she would definitely be able to assist her master even more.
With this feeling, Xi Fei applied herself even more diligently.
She even took the ti to construct a simple kiln on the front line, specifically for baking cent and bricks, to relieve the logistical pressure from the rear.
For this purpose, Xi Fei even made a special report to transport a batch of Magic Crystal Stones.
These Magic Crystal Stones were specially drawn from the energy stored within the Mage Tower, and then used by Xi Fei.
Though this thod was a bit wasteful, it greatly sped up the construction.
Based on this pace, perhaps it would only take five days to complete.
After the first phase was completed, Zhao Guang gave it so thought and sent the Sniper Team over as well.
“Using live Magic Beasts for training would be more effective than dead targets, wouldn’t it?
They’re going to the battlefield sooner or later anyway, so it’s better to let them get used to it in advance,” Zhao Guang thought quietly to himself.
However, when the Sniper Team arrived, the Werewolves were sowhat dissatisfied.
Because small Beast groups would often be wiped out by a group of snipers just as they appeared, leaving nothing for them to do.
They understood that these were military rits.
Now they were just thinking of paying off the weapons they owed as quickly as possible and then using more military rits to exchange for better weapons.
The more they fought, the more they envied their leader’s Horse-slaying Saber.
They should have known not to request those clumsy and unattractive axes in the first place.
