Chapter 534: Heavenly Cluster Cloud's Affiliation

"Is this your base?"

After several hours of trekking, the group finally escorted the Dwarves to the front of Yan Huang's base.

The revived Yan Huang players behind them, because the Dwarves were moving so slowly, caught up with them halfway.

A massive convoy of over ten thousand people escorted the Dwarf Race to Yan Huang's base.

In the distance behind, a handful of idle, panicked onlookers hung around; since leveling had become difficult, many players no longer buried themselves in grinding, but began to try other activities.

Along the way, many players left; after all, they were only watching the spectacle for a few hours.

Of course, some players—whether truly idle and panicked or with ulterior motives—followed all the way to Yan Huang's base.

But regardless of their intentions, with all Yan Huang members present, they can suppress any specter or demon.

Moreover, a great battle has just ended; Yan Huang's ferocity is overwhelming, so no one is likely to go rogue and cause trouble.

"Yes," Su Sheng said with a smile, nodding.

"Very good, especially this river water; we can harness it to create some hydro‑powered devices," the Iron Hammer Dwarf King said, nodding in approval.

"It's only a village‑sized settlement for now; the construction matters are yours to handle."

"No problem; this is our specialty."

Thus, the Dwarf Race smoothly took over the construction of Yan Huang's base.

…

It's still only village‑sized, not large, but sufficient to accommodate the over a thousand Dwarves.

The Dwarves' movements were also extremely swift.

Before the day's game time ended, using the materials Yan Huang players had gathered over the past two days, they immediately erected basic supply points such as a tailoring shop, a pharmacy, and a blacksmith shop.

That instantly removed Yan Huang members' rear‑guard worries; otherwise, during base construction they'd have to send someone back for supplies, which would be too troublesome.

With these basic supply points, Yan Huang players can develop here directly; in most cases, they no longer need to return to Zhu Que City.

There are also suitable Training Spots nearby, so they need not compete with others.

Meanwhile, the two City Gates at the front and rear have been raised; now they only need to extend the wall along the gates.

The magical rune cannon has already been set up.

Even the gate facing the high‑level area now has a magical energy cannon erected.

But it's merely decorative; Su Sheng has no magical energy blocks in hand.

When the siege comes, we'll see about the preparations.

The aftershocks of the great battle involving Yan Huang, Qiancheng Muxue, and the Imperial Dynasty are still brewing.

However, this no longer concerns the Yan Huang people.

Because all Yan Huang members, including Su Sheng, are now extremely busy.

The Dwarves' speed is great, but the corresponding resource consumption is also rapid.

Although it showed up, the supplies Yan Huang players collected over two days were almost exhausted by the Dwarves' rapid consumption.

Su Sheng and the Yan Huang members couldn't help but pause in bewilderment.

No comparison, no harm.

Previously, Yan Huang's own half‑baked craftsmen were already a problem.

Later they hired system NPC craftsmen, whose speed was also very limited.

Now, by comparison, Su Sheng couldn't help but complain that those NPC craftsmen were just slacking off.

In this situation, Su Sheng personally led a team to frantically gather materials.

At the same time, they farmed monsters to clear their black reputation; don't forget Su Sheng is also bearing a huge black reputation.

Before the game time ended, Su Sheng sent encouragement in the Guild Channel and then logged off.

…

Phew~

Today was quite tiring.

I did a raid, then kept collecting materials nonstop all day.

But thinking of the rapidly developing guild base, it's painful yet joyful.

At this pace, as long as material collection keeps up, it should be finished in about a week.

According to data, normal base construction takes at least half a month to start.

And…

The base built by the Dwarf Race is a tier above ordinary bases.

Oh right…

I forgot to ask whether the Iron Hammer Dwarf King has the Teleport Array construction technique.

Never mind, I'll ask tomorrow…

…

…

That day, during work.

Whether security team members or university students, almost everyone was buzzing with discussion about last night's battle between Yan Huang, the Imperial Dynasty, and Qiancheng Muxue.

After all, this was, so far, the largest guild‑wide clash in the Zhu Lu Game.

As the protagonist, Su Sheng remained calm throughout.

But Zheng Dazhuang was different; although Su Sheng prevented him from exposing himself, he still acted extremely excited.

Then Su Sheng silently produced some old accounts, and Zheng Dazhuang finally calmed down with a mournful face.

During that period… Lu Zhe also came over to chat with Su Sheng, asking for some tips on game controls.

Seeing Lu Zhe's earnest and focused demeanor, Su Sheng felt somewhat relieved, and at the same time thought about Lu Zhe's performance this time…

Su Sheng couldn't help but think of the Heavenly Cluster Cloud Sword still gathering dust in the warehouse!

A four-colored divine artifact, Heavenly Cluster Cloud.

It's a fairly standard offensive weapon boost, but Su Sheng prefers to stack defense.

So for Su Sheng, even if the Heavenly Cluster Cloud is strong, it's not necessarily much stronger than the Divine Thunder Magic Light he wields.

Furthermore, it lacks the Demon God Lightning ultimate move; one could even say it's been weakened…

Most importantly, the Heavenly Cluster Cloud also grants an intelligence bonus, which perfectly suits Lu Zhe.

Or perhaps…

Should we give the Heavenly Cluster Cloud to Lu Zhe to use?

Once that idea came up, it couldn't be stopped.

It's not impossible, though.

However, the Heavenly Cluster Cloud requires level 55; even with the Divine Craftsman Stone attached, it still needs level 45, and Lu Zhe's level is still a bit short.

Furthermore, I should ask the Iron Hammer Dwarf King how to raise this thing… the manual suggests that the Heavenly Cluster Cloud can continue to be upgraded…

Besides, there's that 80-level armor taken from the cherry blossom outfit; let's see if we can unseal it.

After thinking about all this, Su Sheng made up his mind: for now, let Lu Zhe use the Heavenly Cluster Cloud.

Anyway, it's a perfect fit, and Lu Zhe can be completely trusted.

Su Sheng even felt that, in terms of the game, Lu Zhe's potential is even more exaggerated than Chen Guan's was back then.

After all… Lu Zhe is too focused; if he keeps going like this, surpassing me in technical operation isn't impossible.

Diligence can make up for clumsiness.

Lu Zhe, who is congenitally blind, now surely has his life filled entirely with the deer-chasing game.

After all, the deer-chasing game is completely a rainbow of salvation for Lu Zhe.

In the black-and-white world, a light appeared.

…

…

Game time.

Log in!

"Chairman!"

"Chairman!"

After Su Sheng logged in, he inspected the surroundings of the base, preparing to check the notice board on the village chief's main hall.

Suddenly a group of people started shouting at him.

Su Sheng raised his head in doubt.

"Task, we're grinding a big mission!"

"The rewards are so plentiful!"

"The rules say only the chairman can take…"
