Thomas wanted to build a two-meter-high, 30-meter-long triangular wall.
It was built with the level 2 Arrow Tower, the level 3 Magic Tower, and the Ancient War Tree Gertrude as the apex.
The advantage of this was that no matter where the dark creatures came from, they would have to face at least two defensive buildings.
O'Neill and Arya could also climb up the city wall to assist at any time.
This greatly strengthened the defense of the camp.
The disadvantage was also obvious. There was less space inside, which was not suitable for long-term development.
However, for Thomas, this thing was a temporary camp. In the future, when there were more magic cores, they would naturally replan.
His goal was to build a large city in the wilderness, like a main city, which could accommodate millions of people.
And he himself lived in a towering Magic Tower.
This was just a temporary residence.
"Build the city wall!" Thomas placed the magic cores at the position where the city wall was to be built, and then at the core of the city wall, there was a level 2 magic core with a defensive halo.
Rumble!
The magic array rotated, and runes flashed. Walls of Bones rose from the magic array.
In the blink of an eye, the camp was surrounded by three walls of white bones. On the east side of the camp, there was a small door made of white bones that could let people in and out.
[Discovered Wall of Bones. Triggered Super Enhancement System. Increasing...]
[Wall of Bones increased to Wall of Sighs.]
[Wall of Sighs: Level 3 city wall. Upgraded from Wall of Bones. When an enemy creature attacks the city, the Wall of Sighs will stretch out Skeleton Soldiers holding weapons from the inside to fight the enemy. The Skeleton Soldiers that the Wall of Sighs can accommodate are obtained from the enemy's bones. The more enemies killed, the more Skeleton Soldiers that the Wall of Sighs can produce. Upper limit: 300.]
[Remark: Because you have placed a Defensive Halo inside the Wall of Bones, all creatures that assist in defense on the wall will receive the blessing of the Defensive Halo. The outside of the body will receive a shield that can withstand a level 2 attack. As long as the completion rate of the wall is above 70%, the effect of the Defensive Halo will not disappear.]
In an instant, the two-meter-tall wall of bones became six-meters-tall, and the thickness of the wall increased from half a meter to one meter.
The small door that could only accommodate one person also became a small gate that could allow carriages to pass through.
The changes could be said to be earth-shattering.
Thomas patted the thick and heavy wall with great satisfaction.
This time, if he encountered Werewolves again, at least he wouldn't have to worry about a level 1 Werewolf destroying the wall.
With such a thick city wall, even if the younger Werewolves attacked it for an hour, it wouldn't be destroyed.
With the effect of the Defensive Halo, the Wall of Sighs was even stronger.
"Not bad!" Thomas patted the city wall, very satisfied with the defensive function of the new city wall.
Now, even if he went out to kill a wave of dark creatures, he could rest assured.
After dealing with the matter of upgrading the city wall, Thomas ate a steak for breakfast. Then, he called O'Neill and Arya over and followed him to the surrounding dark fog to clean up the nearby dark creatures.
"O'Neill, Arya, each of you take a soldier and follow me to the surrounding fog to clean up the dark creatures."
"Yes, Sir Thomas!"
The two of them immediately picked a soldier and followed Thomas out of the camp.
At this time, the sun had already risen, but due to the dark fog, the light of the sun had been greatly weakened.
Even if the sky was bright and they walked in the dark fog, it was still like evening. The visibility around them was even less than 20 meters.
If it was still so during the day, one could imagine how much of an advantage the dark creatures would have at night.
Today, Thomas' plan was to first clear out the dark creatures within 1,000 meters of the camp.
If there was enough time, he would expand the area.
Thomas walked forward while O'Neill and Arya guarded him tightly on both sides with weapons in their hands.
Thomas had descended into a village.
He had descended at the edge of the village before, but now, he was heading towards the center of the village.
The village seemed to have been very rich in the past. The ground was even paved with Bluestones, and the houses around it were mostly built with Bluestones. It looked sturdy and beautiful.
Every family had a small courtyard with some flowers and fruits and vegetables planted.
However, because of the invasion of the dark creatures, all of this was destroyed by the dark creatures.
Not many houses in the village were intact. Many houses were even burned to ashes by the fire. The courtyard planted with flowers, fruits, and vegetables was also razed to the ground. Bloodstains could be seen everywhere on the Bluestone road.
Walking on the road, one could occasionally see a few corpses that had been gnawed away.
The originally peaceful village had become a living hell.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Thomas could not help but clench his fists. "I must completely exterminate these dark creatures."
Unknowingly, the group of people came to the center of the village.
In the middle of the village was a small Goddess of Life temple.
Next to the temple was a two-story small building of the village office.
Next to the building was a big tree that was ten meters tall. On the branches of the tree were human corpses.
Seeing the scene in front of him, Thomas was extremely angry.
Not only did they kill people, but they even treated the corpses like this. Thomas could not tolerate it.
"O'Neill, go and put down those corpses," Thomas said.
He wanted to bury the bones of these people.
"Yes, Sir Thomas."
O'Neill held the bronze shield in one hand and the spear in the other. He went forward to check the situation.
Just as he approached the big tree and was about to put down a skeleton, the skeleton suddenly opened its eyes.
"Awoo!"
The skeleton let out a strange cry. It exerted force with both hands, and the rope used to bind it was instantly broken.
After landing on the ground, the skeleton waved its hands and rushed towards O'Neill.
"What the hell is this?" Seeing that the skeleton had actually moved on its own, O'Neill hurriedly raised his bronze shield to block it.
Dang!
The skeleton's hands hit the bronze shield and actually produced a sound of metal colliding.
It was only then that Thomas and the others saw the true appearance of the skeleton.
From afar, the bones looked no different from an ordinary corpse.
However, upon closer inspection, there was a difference. An ordinary corpse was already swollen and rotten.
However, the skin and flesh of these bones seemed to have evaporated, sticking closely to the bones.
Moreover, the body tissues of these bones were relatively intact. The nails were sharp and long, and they had already turned black, like the sharp claws of an animal.
"What is this thing? I have never seen it before. Could it be a newly discovered dark creature?" Thomas was secretly surprised.
