Summon the defense tower at the beginning

Chapter 35 The Orange Tree

Not to mention that the construction of the Yunluo Tower consumes several times more resources than other defense towers, and what is even more outrageous is that this defense tower is still very conspicuous.

Chen Jue saw that the branches of the orange tree were lit up with orange light, as if the blood was flowing.

After that, the orange tree began to bloom and bear fruit at a growth rate that was almost visible to the naked eye, and soon a tree of shining kumquats was formed.

It was such a tree of kumquats, if it fell on the ground, it would explode immediately.

Chen Jue is well aware of the power of this thing, but the flaws of the single Yunluo Tower are too obvious. If it weren't for a large tower forest, it would probably be too embarrassing to use it.

"It really is a big investment."

Sighing secretly in his heart, he subconsciously looked into the distance.

"It's almost time to purchase again."

During this year, he had already left the depths of the Star Dou Forest, and found the Tiandou Empire's town near the forest.

Compared with the later episodes of Douluo Continent, the area of ​​the current Star Dou Forest is several times that of the later ones, so that the towns of the Heaven Dou Empire around the forest are just small towns dotted around the forest.

It is far from the situation in the future where there are many high walls and continuous fortresses, and entry fees are required to enter the forest to hunt and kill soul beasts.

Chen Jue wanted to walk out of the forest directly, but after thinking about it, he took out a small straw doll from the green ring.

The puppet began to swell and grow when it was placed on the ground, and finally became a puppet the same size as Chen Jue.

"Scarecrow puppet, the number of uses is 1/1."

This prop is a prop from the wizarding world, and it was supposed to be used as a means of torturing people, appearing as a stand-in doll.

But in the plot world of Douluo Continent, due to the changes in the plot world, the role has also changed accordingly.

Although the current scarecrow puppet can still connect with Chen Jue, the pain and side effects will not directly affect him, and it is more of a simple remote control stand-in.

The night patrol cavalry from the two families never appeared. On the one hand, it was because the world of Douluo World was too large, and on the other hand, it was because Chen Jue didn't participate in the plot of the world, so there had been no disturbances.

Even so, the pursuers will come, maybe today, maybe tomorrow.

Chen Jue knew this very well.

So even when he was going down the mountain to supply supplies, he would still let the scarecrow puppet set up the defensive tower for him, after all, there would never be less of these things.

……

The town below the mountain is as lively as ever.

The wooden houses and small buildings divided the whole town into three blocks, and the middle one is the trading street that mercenaries and soul masters like to go to most.

Because there are often soul beasts wandering out of the Star Forest, living in these villages is quite dangerous. Therefore, there are almost no honest country villagers in these small towns. Most of them are gold diggers who have left their hometowns to look for opportunities.

Naturally, the most numerous soul masters were all kinds of longing soul masters, hoping to obtain a high-level soul ring in the Star Dou Forest.

Wrapped in a blanket, Chen Jue walked quickly across the main street, towards the vegetable market opened by the villagers themselves.

"Hey! Chen, you are here again!"

"Is there anything good today?"

As soon as he entered the market, his eye-catching appearance attracted several familiar people to greet him loudly.

Those few people were all butchers in the village, serious country people who relied on the mountains and rivers to feed themselves.

Although his stature looks powerful, he is actually just a worldly martial artist. He came to this small town beside the Star Dou Forest to make a living, but he was not strong enough and ended up in the business of slaughtering chickens and sheep.

"Old rules."

Chen Jue walked straight into the back room, and the man in front of the door followed him in with a smile.

In his opinion, this young man who was a little sneaky was actually very capable. Although he didn't know the specific strength, judging from the soul beasts he hunted, he was at least a powerful soul master level.

Sure enough, as soon as he entered the room, he saw a flash of inspiration in Chen Jue's hand, and from nowhere, several neatly divided soul beasts appeared.

If this man had a little bit of knowledge, then he would definitely find that the cutting techniques of these spirit beasts were quite skillful, avoiding the bones and tough tendons with each cut.

It's just that from what he sees now, he doesn't care about the identity of the person wrapped in the black blanket in front of him, he only knows that these soul beasts should be able to buy a good price again.

After being silent for a while, Chen Jue seemed to be really bored today, so he said something more.

"You look happy."

"Of course, you don't even know how popular these things are these days."

"Really? There are mercenaries in town again?"

"It's not like mercenaries. They are more well-dressed. They should be students of Imperial College, or someone else."

Having said that, Chen Jue, who had always been indifferent, raised his head and glanced at the butcher who was busy.

There are countless mercenaries coming and going in the small town at the foot of the mountain in a year, but anyone with a discerning eye can tell the difference between those rough mercenaries and the soul masters in the general academy.

Compared with the Wuhun Palace that has penetrated into every aspect of the empire in later generations, people today still don't know much about the Wuhun Palace.

For them, perhaps the only change is that the original systemic academies of the empire seem to have not recruited new students.

Seeing his own children growing up day by day, and about to miss the golden age of soul master growth, there are still some uneasy feelings in the empire.

In the hut, Chen Jue watched the butcher busy packing up, and casually put a list of items on the table.

"It's still these things, you prepare."

"Okay!"

The butcher replied, and just as he was about to turn around and chat with Chen Jue, he turned around and found that the person was gone.

Compared to other cities in the empire, this remote town looks quite down and out.

Are there any cobblestone roads in the town? The muddy streets after the rain are mixed with the rotten smell of soul beasts, as if it is a fish and shrimp market.

Logically speaking, only the mercenaries who lick blood on the edge of a knife would endure such an environment in such a place.

Unexpectedly, a group of white horse Yicong appeared on the street today.

The tall and pure white horses were dressed in five-color silks and satins for decoration, and the cavalry who held their heads proudly kept their eyes on each other, and their eyes under the armor were full of disdain and arrogance.

But these people do have arrogance.

Compared with a group of disgraced countrymen, these people simply have their status as upper-class people written on their faces.

Suddenly someone in the crowd asked in a low voice.

"Who are these people?"

"I heard that it's a person from some sect outside, called Wuhun or something."

As soon as he finished speaking, the person who explained turned around, only to see a figure wrapped in a felt blanket and leaving.

Compared with Chen Jue's expectation, the appearance of Wuhundian was not too slow, and compared to the plot line, the current time seemed a bit too fast.

Because the protagonist Tang San, who relies on the fate of heaven and earth, has not yet appeared, the changes in the early plot line will be relatively less affected by the intervention of world consciousness.

"Could someone be instigating behind the Spirit Hall?"

With a flash of thought, Chen Jue frowned secretly, his heart was already gloomy.

Generally, it is almost impossible for three or five ability users to influence the decision-making of a faction. Most of the ability users will still stay attached to a certain faction at the general level of thinking, and practice honestly to win treasures.

Those who can really have ideas and the ability to implement such a plan should only be the famous families of the new era.

The core of the Eden Project is to gradually infiltrate and control the major plot worlds through family power, and the four major families have successfully mastered the plane world of Dou Break Qiong several years ago through such means.

As long as the original plot world is maintained and the opportunity for the protagonist to merge with the world's consciousness is delayed indefinitely, or the protagonist's opportunity to become a god, then the entire plane will be under the control of those with abilities.

There is no doubt that this is a very attractive plan.

The beauty of the plane world is definitely the Garden of Eden that every new era of wilderness refugees dreams of.

It's a pity... the Garden of Eden will eventually be destroyed, and the end of the plot world is inevitable. Even if the protagonist's cultivation process is forcibly delayed, it will only consume each other's energy like walking a tightrope.

In the end, if he is careless, he will be discovered by the world consciousness, and then, like the protagonist Han Li in Chen Jue's previous world, he escapes through incredible means, and after his cultivation level has been rapidly improved, he will forcibly expel the ability user.

Obviously, it is impossible for the major families in the new era not to know about this ending.

However, the longing for the hidden world and the despair of the wild world in the new era still drove them to invest a lot of resources in opening up such a plane world.

Chen Jue was very disdainful of this kind of ostrich-like thinking, but right now it was not a question of whether he cared or not, but that he might face the threat of family power that was already deeply rooted in this plane world.

"Good choice."

A thought flashed in his mind, Chen Jue hid under the eaves, looking at the tall and powerful Lancers of the Wuhun Palace who were passing through the streets aggressively.

Obviously, if you want to suppress the growth of the protagonist and maintain dominance in the plot world, you should join the biggest villain force from the beginning and become the biggest villain.

As the biggest villain in the early plots of Douluo Continent, Wuhundian is definitely well-known.

It can be seen that the forces behind this scene are very aware of the significance of the Wuhun Palace to them, so they are doing their best to promote the growth of the Wuhun Palace.

According to the original plot, it should be a few years later to sweep the Star Dou Forest, but they didn't expect them to start now.

Amidst the noise of the crowd, Chen Jue suddenly thought of Qing Kui, Xiao Wu's mother who was briefly mentioned in the plot.

As the soft-bone charm rabbit of a 10-year-old soul beast, she can be regarded as a typical example of a man who is not guilty of harboring a treasure.

In his mind, just as Chen Jue was about to turn around and leave, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

"The time is wrong!"
