Chapter 17: Thorn Fence! Epic Treasure Chest?

Once refreshed, three entries—one white, one blue, and one orange—popped out.

[Hardwood] (White): Improve building material, building quality remains unchanged.

[Steel Plate] (Blue): Add a layer of steel plate, building quality improved to blue rare.

[Thorn Vine] (Orange): Parasitize and fuse a seed of a thorn vine, building quality improved to purple excellent.

"It actually rolled an orange entry!"

Yun Shen was a little surprised, but just like the situation with the axe earlier, the foundation was too poor. Even if it was endowed with a high-quality entry, its own quality was ultimately one grade lower than the entry.

"Upgrade!"

[You consumed Soul Crystal ×25 to upgrade the wooden fence to level 2.]

"As expected of an ordinary-quality city defense building, it's really cheap."

After Yun Shen sighed, he endowed the wooden fence with the [Thorn Vine] entry.

Because the wooden fence covered the entire territory, the orange light emitted when fusing the entry was very dazzling. If it were at night, it would be even more conspicuous.

After the orange light dissipated, the originally plain wooden fence changed its appearance.

He saw that the wooden fence surrounding the territory was already covered with a layer of thorn vines, and its height had been pulled up from the original one meter to two meters, and its thickness had also increased.

[Building]: Thorn Fence

[Level]: 2 (0/1100)

[Type]: City Wall

[Quality]: Purple Excellent

[Skill]: Thorn Counter-injury (Orange)

[Durability]: 100%

[Entry]: Thorn Vine (Orange)

——

[Thorn Counter-injury]: When attacked or touched, the thorn vine will counterattack hostile targets within the attack range, currently within a range of 100 meters.

"Sure enough, it's a counterattack ability!"

Yun Shen was very satisfied with this result. When he saw the word "thorn vine" just now, he had guessed this result.

He had seen this kind of plant in extracurricular books in the library. They were very rare. As long as they were planted, they could exert effects comparable to city defense buildings and were sought after by many farming territory owners.

"Possessing an epic skill but still being excellent quality, it's estimated that the defensive ability is too low."

Yun Shen made a judgment. If one ability is extremely prominent, it means another ability is lagging behind. ===== CHAPTER 32 =====

After all, the original body was an ordinary-quality wooden fence, so how strong could he expect its defensive power to be?

"Wait until I get a higher-level city wall blueprint in the future, then replace it."

Yun Shen had just made his plan when he heard a familiar voice.

"I only went out for a while, I didn't expect such a big change in the territory."

Teacher Jiang Lan climbed over the wall directly. As a friendly unit, she didn't trigger the counterattack effect of the Thorn Fence.

"Currently in a stage of high-speed development, there will be even bigger changes in the future."

Yun Shen replied casually and then asked: "How is it? Did you find that lake?"

Teacher Jiang Lan thought for a moment and said: "I found it, but I felt something was strange, so I didn't take action."

Yun Shen asked suspiciously: "Hmm? Where is it strange?"

Teacher Jiang Lan said: "I detected an epic treasure chest under the lake."

Yun Shen: "???"

It's just the beginning of the area, how could an epic treasure chest appear?

This kind of thing has happened before, but the probability is extremely low, equivalent to the Dragon Country men's football team entering the World Cup.

"There is only an excellent treasure chest on the island in the center of the lake, and there is actually an epic treasure chest under the lake..."

Yun Shen thought about this problem and analyzed: "One location will not have two guarded treasure chests. In this way, that excellent treasure chest should be fake, just a bait, to make us misjudge the danger level of this place."

Teacher Jiang Lan hesitated: "Except for the treasure chest, I didn't detect any danger."

Yun Shen said: "The danger should be in that excellent treasure chest. An epic-difficulty guarded treasure chest, this acquisition difficulty is a bit high..."

He is a very steady person. Although Teacher Jiang Lan's attributes are comparable to mythical heroes, he still doesn't want her to take risks. After all, she is just a research-type hero, and her physique attribute is really too low.

According to his understanding, many territory owners with legendary heroes and troops have overturned on epic-difficulty guarded treasure chests, and he doesn't want to be a warning for others.

Teacher Jiang Lan tentatively asked: "How about I go over later and give it a nuclear treatment?"

Yun Shen: "...You will also blow up the epic treasure chest underneath."

Don't think that the treasure chest will always be in an invincible state. After the treasure chest loses the guard of wild monsters or is obtained by someone, if it is attacked, the durability will decrease.

According to the lethality of Teacher Jiang Lan's skill, the entire island will be as tragic as if it were planted with mushrooms, and the treasure chest will only vanish into smoke along with the wild monsters suspected to be hidden in the excellent treasure chest.

After thinking for a while, Yun Shen made up his mind: "No one can get a treasure chest of this level in a short time, so don't worry for now. You help me cut down trees first. I think I should be able to upgrade to a level 3 territory tomorrow. Wait until you upgrade before going."

"Alright."

Teacher Jiang Lan was helpless and prepared to go cut down trees now.

Yun Shen suddenly asked: "By the way, did you meet Xu Xu Xiaojiang just now?"

Teacher Jiang Lan shook her head and said: "No, but I did find a territory near the lake, but I didn't get close, just observed it."

Yun Shen pursued: "Oh? Is there an excellent-quality hero, a Minotaur warrior, inside?"

Teacher Jiang Lan said: "It's too far to detect information, but I did observe that a life form has a pair of horns."

"Then it should be correct. If you are on the way tomorrow, go around his territory."

Yun Shen confirmed. He knew that Xu Xu Xiaojiang had a hero who was an excellent-quality Minotaur warrior.

"Understood, then I'll go cut down trees now."

Teacher Jiang Lan constructed the forty-meter nano-blade again.

"Hmm, go ahead. Oh, by the way, since there is plenty of time, try not to cut a tree into several sections."

Yun Shen recalled his hard work in refreshing entries just now and couldn't help but sweat.

The wood that Teacher Jiang Lan harvested with a few casual slashes would make him refresh entries for a long time.

"Is that so? Alright, it's just that the efficiency will be slower."

"It's okay, it's okay."

Yun Shen thought that this efficiency was actually higher.

Under his persuasion, Teacher Jiang Lan reduced the length of the constructed blade and began to cut tree by tree, and would also considerately help him move them.

Yun Shen was very gratified by this. Just as he was about to continue refreshing entries, he suddenly heard the sound of thunder and a beast roar full of anger.

"Boom!"

"Roar!"

Yun Shen turned his head and found that it was the Thunder Spear Tower that had launched an attack on its own. Judging from the sound, it should be a bear-type wild monster.

"It didn't die after being struck, it's got something."

Yun Shen was a little surprised, feeling that he could add a meal with bear paws tonight.

Soon, a Great Earth Savage Bear with scorched fur appeared after being struck by lightning. ===== CHAPTER 33 =====
