354 Lone Ranger (1/2)
On Wang Baole's side, it was no longer a pitiful scene comprised of a man and a donkey. Instead, as the thousands of construction puppets busied themselves, the area was heated up. There were no longer weeds on the ground, having been replaced with a large trench that was dug neatly in the ground. A copper wall made from bits and pieces of fragments formed the fence!
The scale of the transformation, when compared to the original state, was not mind-blowingly large, but was still shocking. The live stream viewers from the Federation all looked surprised, and some of them, having understood Wang Baole's intention and plans, began to praise him!
”I understand now! Wang Baole is planning to use others to his advantage!”
”He has nothing. Compared to the other candidates, he had no competitive edge. I see now… this fella's plan was to obtain other people's resources from the start…”
Liu Daobin from Ethereal Dao College, as well as the others, including the Sect Lord, were all surprised. That was especially so for the Sect Lord of Ethereal Dao College, whose eyes lit up instantly. He previously thought that the act of Wang Baole playing dead and his use of the megaphones were a nuisance, but right now, he understood Wang Baole's intention.
It's hard on him. After all, Li Yi is the one that the four Dao Colleges are supporting this time. The Ethereal Dao College Sect Lord felt a little guilty as he sighed. Even though he had high hopes for Wang Baole, he knew that it would still be difficult for him to win if that was all he had.
Unless there is something special about the city he wants to construct… As the Ethereal Dao College Sect Lord sank deep in thought, there were many people on Mars who were watching everything unfold with shock. The Martian Colony Governor curled her lips into a slight smile, while the giant tree furrowed its brows without saying much.
On the other hand, the Mars military was annoyed yet amused. If it was someone else and not Wang Baole behaving this way, they would have sternly reacted. However, in Wang Baole's case, he had just come to assemble the Baole Cannons for them not long ago, passing on all his knowledge without withholding anything. That made the Mars military indebted, and they gave in to him.
For Zhuo Yixian, regardless of whether it was him or the other family clans, they were unable to stop whatever was happening, even though they gritted their teeth in annoyance. They could only watch as the puppets emptied their territory right in front of them…
At the same time, Wang Baole, who had received a large amount of resources, was both excited and delighted. He controlled the thousands of puppets and began constructing his own base!
Even though he was late to the game and was short-handed, his advantage lay in that he had already ruminated over the design of his Eternal Fortress for over a year. He had pondered over and perfected everything, be it the internal structure of the base, the combination of inscriptions, and every other detail.
It could be said that he had already built the stronghold in his mind and knew the ins-and-outs extremely clearly. What he lacked were the resources. The other candidates were clearly less confident than Wang Baole.
Therefore, right now, as he built the stronghold, Wang Baole's train of thought was sharp and fast. The thousands of construction puppets were like a thousand pairs of hands being controlled by him in an organized manner. There was no mess, and very quickly, when the fourth Beast Tide appeared, there was already a prototype for Wang Baole's base being made, its foundation already built in the trench in the ground!
On the foundation, there was a large frame that was still in its initial stages of construction. Its eventual appearance couldn't be seen yet, which made it difficult to imagine how impressive it would be. However, the construction work done continuously by the thousands of puppets surprised everyone who saw it.
Even the other candidates directed their attention to what Wang Baole was doing after they were done making restorations to their own bases. Some grew solemn, while others sped up their restoration process. As for Kong Dao, a chill flashed across his eyes. He didn't care much, instead, focusing on the construction of his own zone.
Amongst the candidates, the most popular Li Yi was indeed rather capable, especially with the full support of the giant tree and the four Dao Colleges. That made her city one of the most sturdy and well-constructed ones out of all the candidates.
Even though it wasn't completed, it looked extremely imposing, especially as the model of the city she wanted to construct was focused mostly on the array formations. Looking at it from a distance, light rays intersected each other, forming a three-dimensional figure. The light rays were blinding.
At the same time, the candidates also began to dedicate part of their resources and manpower to defend against and respond to Wang Baole. The megaphones were the subject of most interest. There were no complex technicalities involved for the megaphones, and very quickly, numerous megaphones were constructed by the candidates who had adequate resources and manpower, forming a part of their defense against the Beast Tide.
There was no real need to use the megaphones. After all, the effect of chasing the beasts away only existed if only one person possessed the megaphones. However, if everyone had megaphones and turned them on, it would only make the ferocious beasts even crazier and nothing else.
