After glancing at the territory panel, he focused on the column of defensive buildings.

The slogan (can be upgraded to a bronze arrow tower) moved his heart, concentrated his attention, and upgraded his dark thoughts.

The next second, the system upgrade sounded.

"Ding~ May I ask if you want to consume 1000 points of soul power to upgrade the level of the arrow tower?"

"Ding~ The upgrade failed, the arrow tower has not been rebuilt, please rebuild the arrow tower before upgrading."

Lauren's eyes lit up.

So the power of the soul is used here? !

It takes 1000 points of soul power to upgrade a black iron-level arrow tower to a bronze-level arrow tower. With such a large consumption, will there be any special effects after upgrading? ?

His requirements are not high, as long as a few dragon-hunting crossbows are enough, if there are none, a few powerful extraordinary guards will do...

[48. Update at noon tomorrow]

Decker City, a city established on the endless wasteland 300 years ago, is the strongest city in the northern border of the Silvermoon Kingdom.

In this huge northern city, in an inconspicuous hotel near the city center.

A young man who was so handsome that one doubted whether he had elven blood was lying on the floor, dead or alive.

The young man was dressed in a luxurious pure white aristocratic robe, with his eyes closed.

There was no trace of blood on his pale face, as if he had died.

The culprit that caused the other party to become unconscious was the bone-piercing scar on the other party's wrist. Blood was slowly flowing from the wrist, and the smell of blood permeated the entire room.

The more intrusive picture is that the blood oozing from his wrist is being greedily sucked by the crystal ball in his hand.

A crystal ball that can swallow blood is obviously nothing extraordinary.

The scene looks very much like some greedy and ignorant nobles have cast a taboo evil secret, causing themselves to be backlashed to death...

I don't know how long it took, but the light outside the window gradually dimmed, and the room seemed to be covered with a dark gauze.

In his sleep, Lauren only felt a sharp pain in his wrist, as if he had been stabbed by someone.

He thought it was a dream at first, but the intense pain stimulated his nerves all the time, and his sleepy thoughts were slowly revived amidst the severe pain.

After a long time, like pushing open a thousand-ton iron door, he finally opened his eyes after expending all his strength.

The moment he woke up, the crystal ball in his hand emitted a chaotic light.

The scar on his wrist healed strangely and quickly, leaving only a shallow mark.

The weak body made Lauren's thoughts dull, and he didn't notice this incomprehensible extraordinary phenomenon.

What caught his eyes was the ceiling above his head, embossed with patterns with strong religious symbols.

In dim light, it can't be seen clearly, giving people a vague sense of confusion.

After panting for a while, he had the strength to look around.

This is a room with a strong medieval style in Western Europe. There are faded oil paintings hanging on the walls on both sides, which vaguely describe the legend of the dragon slayer in which the knight kills the dragon.

The surrounding antique ornaments, furniture and curtains, although old, also reveal a strong exotic style.

Looking at the unfamiliar environment, Luo Lun's mind was full of doubts, wasn't he drinking with a client?Drank too much? ?

Which club is this? ?It really looks good, is there going to be a witch coming in to check his body next?

This game is pretty new...

But just when he was about to struggle to sit up, countless memory fragments suddenly appeared in his mind.

His weak body seemed to have been slapped hard, his head bang, and he fell into a coma again.

After a long time, Lauren opened his eyes for the second time.

But this time, there was no confusion in his eyes, and his expression became extremely exciting.

"Nor's main plane, Silver Moon Kingdom, Decker City..."

"I am now the high nobleman of the Silvermoon Kingdom, Lauren Grant, the heir of the Bauhinia family.

Three months ago, I accidentally obtained a crystal ball while hunting an evil sacrifice with my parents.

That crystal ball has incredible power, and I even got the blood of the Demon Grand Duke from the crystal ball..."

"Now, I have the blood of the Demon Grand Duke who has not yet awakened... I became the Demon Grand Duke?!"

Thinking of this, Lauren was startled, and his eyes suddenly widened.

"More than that, the reason why this crystal appeared was that a certain powerful demon master planned to use evil priests to activate the crystal ball.

After the demon lord lost his crystal ball, he searched for traces of the crystal ball in the Silver Moon Capital every day for half a month, and even a legendary expert was seriously injured by the demon lord..."

"So it's true that I got the blood of the Grand Duke Demon, but I will be hunted down by the Demon Lord at the beginning?? Do you want to be so exciting?!"

Lauren's expression was a little ugly, and he continued to look at the memories left by his predecessor from the perspective of No.1.

"The main plane of Noel has countless dimensional planes, and there are a lot of evil beings living in them, and demons are one of the most terrifying existences."

"The Silvermoon Kingdom was once plagued by demons. Princes who were infected with demons would be hanged. Their evil reputation is second only to blood polluters."

"Under double pressure, the predecessor, taking advantage of the fact that the blood of the Grand Duke Demon has not yet awakened, declared to the family that he would renounce the qualification to inherit the title of Grand Duke Bauhinia, and left the capital for the northern border to become a lord of expansion."

"Under the protection of Fianna, the guardian sent by the family, I arrived safely in the northern city of Decker.

In order to develop as soon as possible, the predecessor spent huge sums of money to purchase a territory suitable for building a city with a mercenary team, and went to that territory with hundreds of people and sufficient supplies with confidence. "

"On the 31st of every month on the main plane of Noel, the moon in the sky will turn blood red, and this day is called the Day of Blood.

When the blood moon rises, the bloody polluters hidden in the dimension will crawl out of the dimension to attack all human cities.

On the bloody day five days ago, the bloody polluters were stronger than imagined, and the territory with weak defense was directly breached.

If it wasn't for the exceptionally powerful guardian Fianna, I'm afraid the predecessor would have died.

But Rao is so hard for more than a month and the savings brought from the family before have become bubbles. "

"In order to restart the territory, the predecessor returned to Decker City from the endless wasteland."

"But at this time, they are penniless, so the descendants of the dignified Bauhinia family can only live in a small hotel.

Stimulated by the breach of the territory, the predecessor wanted to fully activate the blood of the Demon Grand Duke in his body, and used the method of blood sacrifice to gain power from the crystal ball again. "

"But I accidentally let the bloodletting go too far, causing the soul to be swallowed by the crystal ball..."

"So to sum it up, I have time-traveled?? Not in a club??"

After reviewing his memory, Lauren stood up slightly and sat on the floor.

Looking at the strange yet somewhat familiar environment around him, a strange feeling came to mind.

"What's going on here?? I just drank a few more drinks with the client while discussing business, how did I cross time??"

Immediately, as if remembering something, I felt a sudden tug in my heart.

A look of helplessness and bewilderment suddenly appeared on his face, like that of a child who can't find his way home after dark.

"Then... can I go back?"

"Mom, sister..."

The mood that was originally not high quickly sank down, and there was a twinge of pain in my heart.

His father died early, and his mother spent countless painstaking efforts on her own, and had to suffer so much to bring him and his younger sister up.

The well-behaved girl with the ponytail who has been screaming behind his buttocks since he was a child, and his mother with yellow calluses and an extremely warm smile are his only concern and spiritual support.

but now...

Thinking that I might never see the little girl leaning on his lap to eat and yelling at him vaguely in my life, my throat seemed to be blocked by something, and the tip of my nose felt sore.

Although he tried his best to suppress his emotions, the strong impact still made him feel uncomfortable.

Right now, yay~

The door of the hotel was pushed open suddenly, and then a tall and graceful figure in black armor, like an angel descending from the mortal world, stepped into the room.

[49. The unknown danger that suddenly appeared in Chapter 46]

While Lauren was actively researching how to upgrade the arrow tower, after the investigation and discussion of the construction department, the plan for repairing the arrow tower was quickly drawn up.

"My lord, this arrow tower is an ordinary three-story arrow tower. The second and third floors of the arrow tower are attack floors. Each floor can provide 15 attack positions. The two floors can accommodate 30 people in total.

The advantage of this type of arrow tower is that the construction cost is low and the construction difficulty is small.

The disadvantage is that the attack direction is single, the number of people can be accommodated is small, and the defense is relatively weak, unable to resist the bombardment of siege weapons.

Based on the damage of this arrow tower, if you can send 50 people, we are confident that it will be repaired within [-] days.

Another completely damaged arrow tower will take 1 days to rebuild..."

Looking at the middle-aged man reporting in front of him, Lauren nodded slowly.

"Rebuild this arrow tower first, and talk about the other one after a while." First get the blueprints for the construction of the Element Tower, and then talk about it. There are not so many resources invested in the other arrow tower.

"There are currently 30 people in the construction department, and I will equip you with 20 more people. After seven days, I will see a brand new arrow tower."

After getting the promise, the middle-aged man and his companions immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yes, my lord, we will do our best to fulfill your will."

Lauren nodded in satisfaction. The effect of the arrow tower rising is really exciting.

After arranging the construction task of the arrow tower, the number of available residents is less than 120. Except for some old and weak people who have no labor force, the available labor force may be less than 0.

Looking at the Arrow Tower, Lauren turned his attention to the city wall... The Arrow Tower can be upgraded with the power of the soul, so is the same for the city wall?

With a thought, the system's notification sounded immediately.

"Ding~ Do you want to consume [-] soul power to upgrade the wooden city wall into a gray city wall?"

"Ding~ The power of the soul is not enough to improve."

"Ding~ The gray city wall has not been built yet, and the promotion failed."

Looking at the system prompt, Lauren narrowed his eyes slightly.

Do you need [-] soul power to raise the city wall?Directly [-] times higher than the arrow tower.

However, the city wall, like the arrow tower, needs to be built before it can be upgraded.

Does this improvement make sense?

Or... the system consumes the power of the soul to upgrade the level to perform actions such as enchanting the city wall, so that it has characteristics similar to the attribute of the territory?

After thinking for a while, Lauren shook his head. There was too little information, and he couldn't make an effective judgment. He could only wait for the arrow tower to be rebuilt and upgraded to see the effect.

By the time everything was done, the sky had already dimmed.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the city wall—the army that had gone out to explore the map around the territory returned.

After the soldiers guarding the city wall confirmed that there was no danger, they immediately notified the soldiers below to open the city gate.

The wooden city gate was opened, and the tall figure of the barbarian chief Yas first appeared in Lauren's sight.

The sturdy barbarian is like an iron tower, and even the ground trembles slightly when he walks around.

This is a true warrior, powerful and fierce.

Wearing a black cloak, the kobold blood mage Sim followed closely behind.

The caster raised his head high, his eyes dismissive of his surroundings.
