Chapter 333: I’ll Show You How to Do One Against Hundreds

”Build towers?”

Upon hearing w.a.n.g Lu's answer, Aya inwardly speculated, ”That's nothing more than to rely on the strength of the laborers to build defensive towers.” However, when she pondered about it, the more she couldn't figure it out. ”What kind of tower do you want to build? How do you build it? How long would you build it?”

On the first question, what kind of defense tower should be built in order to block the opponent? The opposite party has four hundred golden guardians with power close to Jindan Stage. The battle formation made them look like common infantries, but once the war started, each one of them could move heaven and earth! Perhaps the common defense tower has miraculous effect on the common-people-level war, but here it was meaningless! Once the golden guardians went all out, they could even dismantle ten towers at once.

On the second question, even if w.a.n.g Lu has the blueprint of a super defense tower that was capable enough to repel these golden guardians, what about the materials? One could not make bricks without the straws—no matter how competent the Golden King's laborers were, they could not possibly make a tower out of air.

The third question, even if w.a.n.g Lu's materials problem could be solved, what about the construction time? No matter how efficient the Golden King's laborers were, they could not possibly make a tower in a flash, yet, would Tannu give them time?

”About the first question, you should not ask me about it. Instead, you should ask these hard laborers. They are fortunate to serve Golden King as his elite workers, so they had undergone the most rigorous training in civil engineering, how could they not be able to build even a few practical defense towers? Even if it's not true, I also have in me a few drawings of Dragon Tower, which has the ability to kill all living beings in a matter of seconds…”

Aya was greatly surprised. ”Drawings of Dragon Tower? Where did you get those? That's one of the top secrets Bretton Dragon Clan!”

Dragon Tower was a treasure level building designed by a group of building-loving scholars when Bretton Dragon Clan was at its peak. The tower has an independent defense capability; without manual operation, it could identify the enemy and meet the enemy in combat through various means. Based on the different building materials, it could display the strength from low order to high order profession. Of course, the cost of a Dragon Tower that was comparable to high order profession was so high that even the Dragon Clan itself could not bear it. Its invention did not have too much practical value. However, low-level Dragon Tower was very practical. For example, the most cost-effective Green Dragon Tower only needed materials worth of five or six hundred spirit stones (or magic coins) to build. Its power was enough to rival peak Foundation Establishment or near Xudan Stage Cultivators. And if there were a dozen of Dragon Tower fire, even a cultivator who has just entered Jindan Stage must evade it.

The only problem was that the technology needed to build the Dragon Tower was too complex. Even in the past, among the skilled building makers, the numbers were very few. And for Aya's era, the building maker that could build Dragon Tower was almost extinct. Plus, Aya was more concerned with the offense than defense. Therefore, this kind of defensive tool was not very useful for her, so Dragon Tower drawings were thus put on the shelves.

However, after all, it was still a treasure of the Dragon Clan. How could this inheritance, which was among the most valuable treasures, fall into w.a.n.g Lu's hand?

w.a.n.g Lu said, ”Of course I found it in the Treasure House of Dragon City. In your absence these years, as the only remaining guardian of the Bretton Dragon Clan, Bedivere had gathered a large number of Dragon Clan heritage, one of which is the drawings of the Dragon Tower.”

”Of course I know that, but, how could Bedivere let you into the secret treasure house?” Aya was in disbelief. ”It's not that I don't trust you, but… Bedivere should know the meaning of the Bretton Dragon Clan heritage. Except for me, he can't even let his wife enter the treasure house!”

w.a.n.g Lu said, ”I told him that I am your gigolo.”

”... And he just let you in?”

”Of course not. Bedivere is so strict, how could he break the rules just because of the gigolo ident.i.ty? However, I also told him that our child would be born next year, so I intend to give a present to the child, but also give you a big surprise.”

”...” Upon hearing w.a.n.g Lu's explanation, Aya immediately stopped moving, as if she was petrified.

w.a.n.g Lu said, ”So I asked him to recommend if there's anything good in the treasure house. He recommended the drawings of Dragon Tower and said that if I can build a Dragon Tower in accordance with the drawings, even if it's just the most low-level Bone Dragon Tower, and made it as a guardian for the newly born child, it would make you very happy. Now it seems that Bedivere has indeed greatly contributed to the cause!”

Aya didn't even have the strength to speak.

”And as for your second question, the materials. It's also Bedivere who helped me solve that. Under the oppression of the Holy Light Religion, his greatest need was self-defense. And as a defensive tool, Dragon Tower was his first choice. Over the years, he has acc.u.mulated a lot of materials, but he lacked the capable building-makers to construct it. During this period, he had to reluctantly recruit some, but was soon discovered by the Holy Light Religion. However, the Dragon Tower project was still managed to be kept secret by him. It's just that he didn't have the supporting climate to construct it… At the time, when I got the blueprint, he also included a large number of materials—fortunately, my mustard seed bag is big enough, hahaha!

”And as for the third question, would construction time be really a problem? Who do you think Tannu is? How could he see through my tricks? And even if he can see through, so what? As long as I personally go into action, those mere puppets would be extremely vulnerable like a free range chicken and a cute puppy.”

”You personally go into action? Do you want to use your original magical ability to slow them down? That's impossible! The strength difference is too big!”

”Is it?” w.a.n.g Lu laughed. ”My cultivation base is only Xudan Stage—after diligently struggling in this Western Continent, I manage to reach high-level Xudan Stage, and my real defensive power can hold off anyone under Yuanying Stage. While they are just a group of puppets that barely reached Jindan.”

Aya said, ”It's a group, not just one!”

”But if they can't break my defense, what is the difference between a group and just one?”

”Tannu is a master of military strategy and tactic. The soldiers under him couldn't possibly be a mess. Once they unite their strength, four hundred people join forces, even a Yuanying Stage could not clash with them head on!”
