“When the morning sun shone on the valley in the wilderness, more than four hundred Wanderers had already gathered in the empty space in front of the cliff. ”
“Each of their faces carried a kind of pious expectation, their numb eyes for the first time had light, and their tired bodies seemed to have been injected with a powerful vitality. ”
Something called Hope was taking root and sprouting in their hearts.
“Qian Long had a smile on his face while Tai Seng’s eyes flickered with a crazed adoration. They were all looking at Tang Zhen, who was standing alone in front of the black stone platform, with a fiery gaze. ”
“Everyone held their breath, afraid that they would ruin the solemn atmosphere. ”
“Only the little girl was being carried by the big Bear. Jimmy was standing beside her, and a few little turnips were gathered together. Each of them had a lollipop in their hands. They sat at the outermost position and were indifferent to what was going to happen. The only thing that could arouse their interest was the candy in their hands. ”
“Tang Zhen quietly stood in front of the stone platform. After a moment of silence, he took out a black rune foundation stone from his storage space. It was the building foundation stone from the bloodthirsty Goblin’s lair. ”
“Although he still had a few foundation stones that he had stolen from the treasure room in Black Rock City, Tang Zhen did not know what kind of wild building these foundation stones came from. For safety’s sake, he finally chose to use this foundation stone that he knew the origin of to build his Tower City. ”
“Raising the foundation stone high above his head, Tang Zhen opened his mouth and chanted, to the gods above, your people wish to build a city today. Please show mercy and mercy. May the city be passed down for thousands of years and the residents enjoy eternal happiness and health! ”
may the city be passed down for thousands of years after its construction. May the residents enjoy eternal happiness and health!
“These words were shouted by over four hundred Wanderers in unison, and their voices reverberated throughout the entire Valley. They didn’t die down for a long time. ”
Tang Zhen took a step forward and gently placed the foundation stone on the empty space of the platform. This foundation stone was firmly suspended in the air above the stone platform. The symbols faintly flickered with flowing light.
“Tang Zhen took out a sharp dagger and pulled it out from his palm. After which, he placed it on top of the foundation stone. Fresh blood immediately dripped from his tightly clenched fist and slowly dripped onto the foundation stone. ”
The foundation stone that came into contact with the blood instantly turned into a Ruby. Nine ring-shaped runes appeared out of thin air and lasted for a few seconds before disappearing.
“At this moment, a feeling suddenly rose in Tang Zhen’s heart. It was as if his thoughts had already connected with this foundation stone. ”
“Tang Zhen had already activated and bound the foundation stone. At this point, he had already established his identity as the city Lord, and he would not be shaken even by Thunder! ”
The next thing to do was to use the brain Pearl as a sacrifice.
“Tang Zhen casually waved his hand and a large pile of level one brains filled the stone platform. There seemed to be at least a thousand of them. However, as the light emitted by the foundation stone flashed, those thousands of level one brains instantly disappeared. ”
Tang Zhen did not have any hesitation when he saw this. He waved his hand once again and sent out a thousand brain beads before disappearing.
“Releasing the brain Pearl and absorbing it with the foundation stone, this action was repeated ten times! ”
“The Wanderers who were watching were extremely shocked. They couldn’t understand how Tang Zhen had conjured the brain Pearl out of thin air, but it didn’t affect the respect they had for Tang Zhen that had quietly increased. ”
“After ten thousand level one brain beads were absorbed, Tang Zhen felt a feeling of satiety from the foundation stone. It was as if it was telling him that there was no need to sacrifice the brain beads anymore! ”
“Tang Zhen secretly heaved a sigh of relief. This was because he had already used up an entire box of brains earlier. He never thought that the amount of brain pearls consumed during the sacrifice would be so huge. It was also fortunate that he had emptied the treasure room in Black Rock City. Otherwise, God knows where he would be able to find so many brain pearls when he leveled up again. ”
“It turned out that just after the sacrifice, the cornerstone suddenly sent a vague message. To upgrade again, he would need 10000 Level 2 brain beads! ”
“10,000 Level 2 brains were equivalent to 100000 Level 1 brains. He wondered if there were enough brains left in the storage dimension. ”
“Although he really wanted to upgrade the tower to Level 2, Tang Zhen didn’t dare to take this risk. Let’s not talk about whether the number of brain beads was enough, just the scale of the monster attack that had doubled was enough to make him drink a pot of water. ”
“Moreover, he still had great use for these brains, so he could not touch them for the time being. ”
“Throwing away the distracting thoughts in his mind, Tang Zhen muttered in his heart under everyone’s expectant eyes, “” “”Building a city!”” ”
“””BOOM! ”
“Tang Zhen felt a loud sound coming from his mind. Immediately after, a miniature model of a building appeared in front of him. This building was four stories tall and it looked like a bank from the outside. ”
“At the same time, there seemed to be a voice in Tang Zhen’s heart telling him that this model could be modified to a certain extent according to His will. ”
“Tang Zhen did not hesitate to embed it in the depression of the cliff. At the same time, he made some changes to the door and windows, making it more convenient for defense. He also made some changes to some places that were not suitable for living. ”
“After completing the reconstruction of the City Tower according to his thoughts, Tang Zhen issued the construction instructions! ”
“The model in front of him disappeared, and the depression of the cliff was immediately shrouded in a chaotic light and shadow. Tang Zhen’s eyes blurred as if he saw the past and present life of this building. ”
“It was a building built on the side of a bustling Street. It had been used as a bank since the beginning. It had experienced decades of ups and downs, and countless people had worked and lived in it. ”
“One day, a group of masked men rushed into the building. They waved the guns in their hands and shot the panicked staff and customers to the ground, snatching a large pile of cash. ”
“The scene flashed by, and for some reason, these masked men suddenly went crazy and killed all the hostages. Then, they laughed wildly and tore off their clothes, revealing the explosives on their bodies. ”
“With a loud bang, the scene came to an abrupt end! ”
“This was the memory of this building’s entire life. Now, it was all displayed in front of Tang Zhen’s eyes. ”
Tang Zhen’s heart was silent. He had never thought that a simple building would possess such vivid memories. He could even sense a reluctance to part with life from these memories.
“What the hell, how could these cold things have feelings? ”
“Tang Zhen shook his head and tossed all the messy thoughts out of his mind. After which, he stared at the cliff in front of him without blinking. This continued for five minutes before the large stretch of light disappeared. A brand new building stood in front of everyone! ”
“Three of its sides were embedded in the rock wall, and only the front wall was exposed. The wall was covered with beautiful embossed, which looked very exquisite and elegant. At a glance, almost all the doors and windows were equipped with guardrails, and two heavy bronze doors were erected at the entrance. ”
“””Long live the city Lord!”” ”
“Upon seeing this, all the Wanderers cheered in unison. Many of them were in tears, and they couldn’t suppress the ecstasy in their hearts. ”
“After all, no one could remain calm in the face of such a miraculous scene, not to mention that this place was about to become their home! ”
“Tang Zhen’s heart was similarly filled with shock. This was because as the city Lord, he knew more information compared to the Wanderers who only saw the situation on the outside. ”
“This cornerstone from the bloodthirsty Goblin’s lair used to be a bank. It was also because of this that, in addition to its normal functions, this building actually had three exclusive functions. ”
“However, what made Tang Zhen feel uncomfortable was that these three functions all belonged to the strange place that the tower must have. For example, the panlos stairs of Black Rock City and the ghost bank of his tower. ”
“There were three special functions of the ghost bank. The first function was to deposit. All the brains that belonged to the residents of loucheng could be deposited in the ghost bank of loucheng. After the deposit, they could get 0.5% interest every month, which was a good benefit. ”
“The second function was loans. Any resident of Lou city could take a loan from the ghost bank with a monthly interest of 3%. Because of his past life experience, Tang Zhen didn’t comment on this function and even felt a little disgusted. ”
“Moreover, this ghost bank could directly extract the soul power of the debtor to repay the loan after the loan was overdue, which was extremely strange. ”
“The third function was exchange. All the residents of the city could use their brains to exchange for cash or gold, but they couldn’t use cash to exchange brains. ”
“It could be said that the third function was tailor-made for Tang Zhen. After all, other than him, it was simply impossible for anyone else to use their brains to exchange for those useless pieces of paper that did not exist. ”
“In addition to the three exclusive functions, the normal functions of the building were the issuing and receiving of World Missions on the cornerstone platform, the exchange of basic cultivator skills, and the monthly food quota. ”
“These functions were all very powerful. If it wasn’t for the construction of the tower, Tang Zhen wouldn’t have guessed that the tower actually had these functions. It almost covered all aspects of human clothing, food, housing, and transportation. However, if one wanted to exchange for these functions, one must have enough brain beads or points. ”
“In other words, the platform was the internet of the world of loucheng! ”
