Yan Meiyu continued the conversation, “Currently, South City, Huiyuan City, Hengchuan City, and Shanjiang City are interconnected, and connected underground are bunkers with rock bodies at least ten meters thick, ensuring that should any unforeseen events occur, we can withstand the first wave of impact.”
“At the same time, within a ten-kilometer area of the fog-free zone, we have established thirty underground outposts and forts each capable of accommodating three hundred people. Originally, our construction teams were already short of hands, and logistics personnel were extensively involved in the construction of bunkers, necessitating a slowdown in speed. But now, we should be able to continue expanding outward.”
The underground outposts and forts are integrated structures, but their main construction relies on the wilderness environment, embedded underground, forming vault-like underground spaces with certain storage capabilities.
These are mainly provided as bases for the Tree Domain Troops during exploration and regular patrols.
Above the bunkers is a standard wall, reaching up to thirty meters tall, incorporating the aligned regions of the bunkers.
The designated area on the surface has simple buildings for routine guarding purposes, but the truly important supplies, equipment, and the escape routes for later stages, are all located inside the bunker.
...
If it were an ordinary force, like the Armed Forces, they probably wouldn’t build such a number of bunkers just for expanding the fog-free zone.
Building bunkers in this way, although more effective in controlling the fog-free zones, requires significant manpower and material resources; even trading a batch of Black Rock Tree Monsters, Wushan Base wouldn’t do this.
But the Tree Domain can afford it, as they have more Black Rock Tree Monsters and naturally can allocate more resources to building underground outposts.
However, as the fog-free zone expands, each additional extension outward significantly increases the required outposts, and they’re starting to stretch thin.
It can be said that with the addition of ancient beasts, more Black Rock Tree Monsters could be mobilized to the periphery, which has a significant impact.
“Are the outposts underground interconnected?”
“Not completely, but there are reserved passages.”
Su Han opened his eyes, which flashed with a purple glow, his finger pointing as strands of dark red power emerged continuously from the void, clustering by his hand and gradually forming into five thumb-sized red tree marks.
He looked at Bai Qilan and the others, his hand extending, and the five Great Demon Marks flew toward them.
“These are the Great Demon Marks. After integrating them, you can tap into the power of the Blood Sea Space and see if you can break through to Fourth Rank Lower Class.”
Zhu Xiong and the others looked shocked, having such a method after Demon Promotion?
“Will it affect you?”
Bai Qilan’s brows furrowed slightly, not immediately accepting, but asking Su Han instead.
Su Han shook his head slightly and said, “No impact, the energy level you can mobilize will not shake the foundation of the Blood Sea Space, on the contrary, as you grow stronger, a part of your emotions and mental energy will gather in the Blood Sea Space.”
This extraction of power is not like taking a cut but resembles an offering, akin to faith.
A sentient being naturally releases mental energy and emotional power. The powerhouse ignited by the Star Torch mainly draws its power from the survivors living in the cities where the Star Torch is located.
The Blood Sea Space and the Great Demon, like beings between two worlds, continuously draw strong power.
By giving them the Great Demon Marks, Su Han wasn’t coveting the power of Zhu Xiong and others, but giving them a push.
Hearing this, Bai Qilan and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Bai Qilan was the first to reach out, touching the Great Demon Mark. Bursts of energy continuously flashed, then turned into lines integrating into her body.
Red lines started integrating from her fingertips, then suddenly red energy surged, waves of red energy emerged, enveloping her body, and quickly the lines spread to her brow, rapidly condensing into a miniature mark.
