Either the evil god has just begun to encroach on the refuge area, or he is cautious enough, either way means that Solena is likely to be the only believer.
Lu Li then fell asleep again and guided Solena to reveal the thirty-four infected residents she had infected.
All the fifteen infected people found previously are among them. Excluding the slight chance, there may be only one believer in Solena in the refuge area.
Refuge areas did not get excessively bad or moderately bad results.
"Her baggage should contain a supernatural token, but I can't sense anything... Do you want to take it to check?" Swamp Mother asked what should be in the baggage that Solena valued very much.
"No need for now."
The evil god doesn't know about them, which means Lu Li has more time to make arrangements.
Lu Li described the characteristics of the other nineteen infected residents, and the twisted cultists, who had expanded to two hundred people, determined their locations.
So as not to alarm the evil god, neither Solena nor her burden nor the infected were treated specially. When they woke up in the morning, everything was as usual. Only Solena briefly thought whether the dream experience was just imagination or a revelation from the Lord.
.
The curfew has not been lifted and residents are still restricted from leaving their rooms and moving around. Only residents who are willing to become believers are taken to the park.
The twisted figure is still looking for heretics, but has not found any more yet.
…
A cup of steaming coffee is placed in front of Mateus' desk.
"It's time for you to rest." Maxson reminded the mayor who had been up all night.
"Not yet, I'm going to patrol the inner ring again." Mateus glanced at the alarm clock, 8:50 in the morning. "Where is the exorcist?"
"With two gods."
"It seems he doesn't need us to worry." The aroma of the coffee made Mateus feel a little hungry. He picked up the coffee cup and took a sip: "Your coffee helped a lot. Is there anything to eat?"
"I'll go look for it."
Maxon walked towards the kitchen and was startled by the businessman Anthony emerging from the shadows.
"The worms have arrived and the exorcist asked where they should stop." It brings news.
Matthäus, who was blowing away the impurities on the coffee surface, paused for a moment: "It's in the cave outside."
With no time to think about food, Mateusz and Maxon walked out of the apartment after drinking slightly hot coffee.
The tremors woke up many people in the core cave from their sleep. When they saw those huge terrifying worms from the windows and were about to scream, they learned that they were Lu Li's ally worms.
"I have no doubt that they can dig a cave as big as their feet in one day..."
Maxon stood a few meters away from the worms, looking up at these "giant earthworms" whose shells were similar to the rock wall and whose mouths were covered with layers of sharp teeth: "If we had these allies, we wouldn't have spent more than ten years building a refuge area and abandon three points of it.
One of the people..."
But this is impossible. The Vina Freeze Port has always been united by rejecting weirdness. Such extremes certainly pave the way for future destruction, but if this had not been done, the city might have been completely corroded by weirdness.
"Give me the plan and call Mano over."
Matthäus took the plan handed over by his staff. Different from the three-dimensional structure of the refuge area, the new refuge area will be on the same plane, and it will no longer be connected to each other by passages like dungeons and separated by rooms, just like a cave and a house under your feet.
, but wider. The depth is also different from the current 20~40 meters underground. It will be about 100 meters deep underground.
The shelters of the old days followed this depth.
Lu Li and Mateus' plan was to build eight underground cities, with each city housing about ten thousand people. This was a large project, but the speed of the worm could support the completion of the excavation in about a month.
The underground cities are connected to each other, which can help the refuge area avoid the spread of the plague and concentrate all the favorable environment on the elite class, although people will still create new classes depending on whether they are close to the center of the underground city or not.
"Mano, you are responsible for translating the language of the worm." Mateus said to Mano who came over.
This holder of the title "Linguist" became Mateus' assistant after helping Lu Li.
Lu Li and the two gods then arrived, allowing twenty worms to start digging downwards from the core cave into a new refuge area.
"How soon will we dig out the first dungeon?"
"It won't take more than a week."
The refuge area of the underground city in the Land of Light can accommodate two to three thousand people. After more than a week of excavation, it is almost complete. Although the Weiner Underground City will be much larger than the refuge area, only five worms were excavated in the Land of Light.
The worms gradually arched into the ground, forming a sloping tunnel. Craftsmen later arrived and built stairs along the traces left by the worms.
Mateus asked his staff Maxson and Mano to lead a group of knights into the tunnel. Someone was needed to guide the worms on how to dig. He temporarily stayed at his residence and continued to handle the internal affairs that were too heavy to be handed over to others.
The twisted figure is responsible for transforming believers and finding people infected with the evil god's aura. The Swamp Mother helps people cultivate banyan trees to guard the Weiner Refuge Zone. She no longer rejects weirdos, and Lu Li's allies are trustworthy enough.
Cultivating a banyan tree guard requires prerequisites: the Swamp Mother must first find a banyan tree that is old enough and still alive, imbue it with power, and transform it into a dependent. The taller the banyan tree, the stronger the transformed guard will be.
However, there are only birch forests around the Vina Freeze Port, and even the small patches of banyan trees have long since died.
"How are the banyan trees in Shadow Swamp made?" Lu Li asked.
"Those are zombie banyan trees... I rely on them to support the battle line against the Twisted Jungle." The voice of the Swamp Mother sounded in my mind: "Seal the corpses in the tree hole, breed consciousness, and let them control the banyan tree..."
The flaw of the Zombie Banyan Tree cannot be ignored: it often loses its mind and attacks everything around it, even the Mother of the Swamp.
Those who migrate to the Land of Light are banyan tree guards, not zombie banyan trees.
"I can give birth to a banyan tree, and you can transform it."
"The price is too high..."
But the Swamp Mother rejected Lu Li. Humanity is scarce and shouldn't be wasted on making banyan tree guards, at least not now.
He said that the migration to the Weiner Refuge Area would last for at least a month, which would be enough time for Andrea to finish repairs and travel to and from the Allen Peninsula to load up the banyan tree guards.
Lu Li accepted the Swamp Mother's proposal.
On the second day after the excavation started, Lu Li came to the cave.
The sound of cutting around the clock came from the makeshift lumberyard.
The dungeon mode is not suitable for building with rooms embedded in the rock wall. They need wooden houses, but the problem also arises: they don't have so much wood. The Land of Light does not have it, nor does the old sewer.
It is impossible for 80,000 residents to rest in the open air like primitive people.
Stone houses are even more unrealistic. It took hundreds of thousands of people more than ten years to dig out rooms from the rock wall in the Wiener Refuge Area. Now they don't have that many manpower or resources.
Lu Li came to the rock formation through the tunnel. The rock wall with only a few meters height may be depressing, but it was also erased by the fault space extending in all directions.
Approaching Maxon and others who were watching the worm excavation from a distance, Lu Li asked Mano to talk to the worm for him.
