Outside the entire Ika Plain, there are windbreaks planted. This windbreak can also serve as a guardrail. Most of the windbreaks are planted with birch-like tree species, tall and straight, between the big trees.
Thorny vines and thorn grass were also planted.
Thorny vines and thorn grass are very common on the mainland. Many villages, fearing being attacked by monsters, will plant some thorn vines and thorn grass outside the village. Although this kind of thing is not too harmful to some advanced monsters,
Although it is of great use, it can still provide good protection against some low-level monsters.
It is said that there are millions of acres of land in the entire Ika Plain. If you want to surround such a large piece of land, how many trees would be needed, which shows the generosity of the Versailles family.
There is another characteristic here in the Ika Plain. This characteristic is almost not found in other places. It is only found here in the Ika Plain.
Outside of the family's army, there is only one kind of person, slaves.
Yes, there are no civilians here in the Ika Plain. All people are slaves, all slaves of the Versailles family. The Ika Plain is so big that it would take at least hundreds of thousands of people to cultivate all the land here, and
Some of these hundreds of thousands of slaves have already settled here. Now there are millions of people living in the entire Ika Plain, millions of slaves! What is that concept?
Here in Ark Continent, a medium-sized city has a permanent population of only a few million, a smaller city has only about a million people, and a small city has only a few hundred thousand residents. In other words, the Versailles family is equal to
There is a slave in a medium-sized city.
A big deal, absolutely a big deal. With this amount of money, the Versailles family can be considered one of the most powerful families in the Aklau Empire. No wonder they would add insult to injury.
The old king of the Aksu Empire wanted to deal with those big families, and the Versailles family was one of them, and the Buda family was a knife in the hands of the old king of the Aksu Empire. It can be said that the Buda family was engaged to the Versailles family.
, it would not have been possible if it had not been for the high pressure of the old king of the Aksu Empire.
Although Ivan Versail has some friendship with Yaguang's father and is considered a good friend, as the patriarch of a large family, he cannot make many decisions. Even if the patriarch is a patriarch, there are many things that he cannot help but do.
.
To be honest, Ivan is quite a good person. When he was young, he went out for training and happened to meet Adam's father. The two had a very happy conversation and eventually became good friends.
Later, when Ivan became the Grand Duke of the Principality of Versailles, he originally wanted to help the Buda family. However, when he really took the position of Oita, he realized that there were many things that he was not in control of.
Sitting in that position, he had to assume the responsibility of the entire Principality of Versailles and safeguard the interests of the old nobles. Therefore, when he became the Grand Duke of the Principality of Versailles, he was already on the opposite side of the Buda family.
.
Moreover, in addition to the head of the family, the Versailles family also has a council of elders. This council of elders is composed of some of the older generations of the Versailles family's direct lineage or collateral lines. These elders use various interests to form a group.
A large net was opened, trapping Ivan, the head of the family, so tightly that he could not move.
Later, with the sudden death of the old king, the bloody ascension of the new king, and the catastrophe of the Buda family, Ivan wanted to help, but there was no way. In the end, he could only use his own power to save Adam's life.
He said that without Ivan's secret help, Green and Merlin might not be able to save Adam.
But the fact that he secretly helped the Buda family was known by the elders, and those elders united to put pressure on him, and the power of his family head was greatly weakened.
Ivan also feels that he is like a puppet now, but what can he do? After all, he is still a member of the Versailles family. The blood of the Versailles family flows in his body, and Versailles is branded on his bones.
Because of the family seal, it is impossible for him to break away from the Versailles family.
Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, he is the glorious Grand Duke Versailles, but Ivan understands that he is just a decoration, placed there to look good and to offend the elders.
Although Ryan Versail is Ivan's daughter, he is very at odds with Ivan because Ryan's mother is the daughter of an elder in the family's Presbyterian Church with a different surname, and she married Ivan for a better future.
Control Ivan.
It is precisely for this reason that Ryan is not close to Ivan, his father, at all. On the contrary, he looks down on Ivan. On the contrary, he is very close to his grandfather.
The Versailles family only let Ryan get engaged to Adam because of the pressure from the old king. Now that the Buda family has fallen, the Versailles family naturally wants to break off the engagement, but they can't let go of their dignity, so the matter is being delayed.
But now Ryan is chasing her too hard, and her grandfather really loves her, so he sent people to the Black Earth Wasteland to check to see if the Buda family is dead. If not, how can they?
He went up to make a touch up, but he didn't expect that Zhao Hai, who had been irritated, thought of releasing insects.
Zhao Hai and Green have arrived at the outskirts of Ika. There are many small villages. The people in the villages are also civilians. Many of them originally lived on the Ika plain, but were eventually killed by ordinary people.
The Sayre family found a way to drive them out, and a large area of fertile land belonged to the Versail family. Now they can only live a hard life on the barren land in the hilly areas on the outskirts of the Ika Plain.
None of these people can enter the Ika Plain, firstly because the troops of the Versailles family are watching, and secondly because of the windbreaks outside the Ika Plain.
Zhao Hai and Green were standing outside the windbreak forest belt. Looking at the windbreak forest belt that was at least a hundred meters wide and unknown how long, Zhao Hai couldn't help but sighed and said: "What a big gesture, this
The Versailles family is really powerful, just planting these trees requires a lot of labor."
Green nodded and said: "This is the strength of the Millennium Family. I heard that the Versailles family spent fifty years to build this windbreak tree, and they used countless manpower and material resources.
To build this forest, countless slaves died from exhaustion. Some people say that as many slaves died as there are trees in this forest."
Zhao Hai sighed, looking at the dense woods, his heart felt numb. Although he knew that Green's words were a bit exaggerated, it was certain that many people must have died in order to build this forest belt.
In the dark night, the wind and grass were blowing in the woods, and there seemed to be countless black shadows moving in the forest. Looking at Zhao Hai, his heart went crazy. After a while, he sighed and said: "Why bother? If there are so many of us, I will let you go."
They all return to civilian status, slavery, which cannot last long."
Green didn't say anything. He just felt that what Zhao Hai said was wrong. Slavery had been on the mainland for tens of thousands of years, and it was still very good. He really didn't understand why Zhao Hai said that slavery could not last long.
Zhao Hai didn't say anything more. He turned to Green and said, "Grandpa Green, it's getting late today. Let's take a rest here first. We'll go to the plains tomorrow night."
Green didn't object at all. It would be dawn in about three hours. He couldn't do much in these three hours, so he might as well have a good rest here.
The two of them returned to Rock Rock Mountain from the space to take a look. Everything was normal there and no one was making trouble. However, Laura sent someone to deliver a batch of wooden barrels a few days ago. This batch of wooden barrels was enough.
It can hold 200,000 kilograms of oil, which is enough for Zhao Hai and the others to use for a while.
It only takes about five days to get from Casa City to the Ika Plain. In these five days, the oil pressing plant in Tieshanbao has officially started. The workers used are all undead, even the oil presses pulling
The animal power of the machine is all made of undead creatures transformed from scaly wildebeest.
However, the undead creature that the scaly wildebeest turns into is not a skeleton, but another undead creature, a zombie.
Zombies are undead creatures of a higher level than skeletons. First-level skeletons have very weak combat power, but first-level zombies have at least the power of a second-level warrior. But to turn a corpse into a zombie, the magic power required is
It turns the corpse into a skeleton about ten times, so ordinary people will not turn the corpse into a zombie.
Although zombies have strong combat power, they do not move very fast. One zombie cannot defeat ten skeletons, and it is more difficult for zombies to upgrade than skeletons, so ordinary black magicians generally do not transform corpses into
Become a zombie.
However, the combat effectiveness of zombies is indeed not weak. Take the lowest level one blue iron zombie as an example. This kind of zombie is very strong, and the defense ability of its skin is also very strong. It is no worse than ordinary leather armor. If it is not
If the speed is too slow, it can be enough to deal with ordinary third-level samurai, but because the speed is too slow, even if you encounter a first-level samurai, you can't do anything to them. But a first-level samurai should not be hit by zombies, as long as he is hit by zombies.
Zombies are hit hard, and even those who don't die are seriously injured.
The speed of the second-level black iron zombies is almost the same as that of ordinary skeletons, and is no worse than the third-level warriors. It is a kind of undead creature that is more difficult to deal with.
Level three zombies are called bronze zombies. These zombies have the strength of level four warriors. Level four zombies are called poison zombies. Zombies at this level can use their own corpse poison to attack people.
, Level 5 zombies are called sub-silver zombies, with stronger defense, greater strength, faster speed, and corpse poison attack.
Level six is the official silver zombie, level seven is the sub-gold zombie, level eight is the gold zombie, and level nine is the true zombie king.
However, there is no magician on the mainland who can make zombies above level 4. Creating zombies above level 4 is more difficult than making high-level skeletons. Even level 3 zombies cannot be made by ordinary magicians.
