Cthulhu Gonfalon Chapter 78:


To be honest, the new rye fortress renovated by Sui Xiong, at least on the outside, is not very beautiful.

The original two-story super city wall, inside and outside, is indeed majestic. However, with the addition of the same color and the same material roof over the head, the momentum of the city wall suddenly disappeared. From a distance, it looks like a huge black column has appeared on the ground. Fortunately, the top of it shrinks and shrinks smoothly, and there is a spire on the top. If the roof is round enough, it will be slightly larger...

Sui Xiong originally planned to design this way, but after he came up with the design, he felt that something was wrong. He looked left and right, he still didn't see the problem, but the feeling of something wrong in his heart became stronger and stronger. In the end, he simply made a palm-sized miniature model, so he understood where the problem was.

The dome of God! This thing is simply "a stick in the sky" in the so-called "folk culture"!

As an art student, Sui Xiong lacks a lot of knowledge that ordinary college students should have, but he also knows a lot of knowledge that ordinary universities would never teach. For example, he knows that many regions in the world with relatively primitive cultural forms still maintain **** worship, such as Double Milk Mountain, Chaotian Stick, these things that are regarded as unharmonious and unhealthy in developed areas. It is the object of worship over there.

Sui Xiong does not discriminate against such a culture, but he definitely does not want to practice it himself.

Whenever he thinks that future generations might compare himself with Steer because of this "one-stick fortress", he feels toothache.

Although he actually has no teeth anymore.

If you don't have a tooth, you will feel toothache, which shows how serious the problem is.

So Sui Xiong finally chose to make the overall shape of the fortress look like a spike pointing to the sky, which was also a desperate choice.

Such a shape is really not considered mighty and domineering, so he had to work harder on the internal design.

So Sui Xiong started construction.

He first designed the fortress as a maze of nine bends and eighteen rings. Unless it is an insider who has the right to use the secret passage, it will take a long time to pass through the fortress even with a map in hand.

This is naturally an extremely effective method, but some other work needs to be done to prevent encountering door smashing.

When playing board games before crossing, Sui Xiong had come into contact with a type of player known as the "door smashing group". When they encounter puzzles in mazes or tasks, they never follow the requirements honestly, but tend to use some simple and crude means to solve them.

For example, someone designed a task: a village chief was upset about the proliferation of goblins in a nearby cave, and hoped to recruit a group of warriors to annihilate them. As a reward, he could collect several magic scrolls that he treasured. Presented to the heroes who wiped out the Goblin tribe.

According to the thinking of ordinary people like Sui Xiong, of course, everyone arranges their equipment, brings supplies, and then goes to the cave to fight with the goblins, destroy them, and come back to get the prizes. But the smashing group would not do this. When Sui Xiong participated in this game, he saw a few smashing group players get some big rocks to block the cave, and then pour smoke into the cave along the stone, and then follow the smoke. Find the vents in the cave and plug them one by one.

They brought enough stones to block all the exits of the cave, and then went to work on other things. About a month later, they returned to this place, opened the blocked cave, and saw the corpses of goblins all over the ground.

These hapless monsters are dying of thirst. Although they can kill each other and eat the same kind of meat to obtain food, when there is food but no water, they actually die faster than if they don’t eat or drink... …

So the task was completed. Apart from consuming some physical strength and time, the smashing mission had nothing to consume, and it was easy to get the reward.

Sui Xiong was stunned at the time, and later learned a lot of tricks for smashing doors.

For example, there is a treasure house in front, but the door is locked. What should I do?

Ordinary people’s thinking is to find the key to open the door, or let the thieves try to unlock the door. The method of smashing the door is to smash the door directly-because this method is so classic, that’s why there is a "smashing door." "The statement.

Then, what should I do when I encounter a maze?

Most people’s approach is for thieves to be careful to explore the way. Everyone makes their own maps while advancing, and explores cautiously. The method of smashing the door group is to smash the wall directly and go straight through the maze.

In addition, there is no need to say more about the various situations. In short, the smashing mission is a kind of energetic and actionable existence, but it makes anyone who designs mazes and tasks annoys it.

Of course, Sui Xiong also wanted to prevent smashing the door from causing trouble, so he strengthened the walls of the labyrinth inside the fortress. Want to smash through the wall? If you have this ability, then this fortress is nothing to you.

Of course, according to his test results, those who can smash through this wall are basically conservatively estimated to have to be legendary high-end.

The legendary high-level is not the Chinese cabbage in the field. It can be counted with one hand in the entire main plane. So Sui Xiong didn't have to worry about where he would jump out of a wild legendary high-level and what trouble it would cause him.

In this case, the maze is as stable as Mount Tai.

(...It's better not to be so self-proclaimed~IndoMTL.com~ People who brag in the impression are generally beaten by reality.)

Sui Xiong looked at the maze built entirely of dark rock, smiled, erased the messy thoughts in his mind, and then began to decorate it.

Question: What materials should be used to decorate the maze?

Answer: Of course it's a trap!

Only relying on the maze itself, although it has a certain defensive power, but the defensive power is not strong enough, after all, the maze itself cannot kill people. Therefore, it needs those things that can actually cause damage to the enemy to assist.

It is nothing more than soldiers or traps that can cause damage to the enemy. In the future, soldiers will definitely be stationed in the fortress, but if the trap is strong enough, some soldiers can be killed and stationed. When a war really starts, the soldiers will be more likely to destroy the enemy.

So Sui Xiong began to arrange traps in the maze. He arranged all the traps he could think of, such as wood rolling stones, strong crossbow stabbings, lightning poisonous gas, viscose fire pillars... all kinds of things are always added together, which is not very much here. There are more than a thousand traps in the big maze.

These traps are not isolated yet, but are interlocking. A trap is mostly connected to several traps, even if the enemy escapes one of them, it may not be able to escape the rest. Even if they have great magical powers or can escape the whole set, don't be happy too early, because the trap can be automatically restored.

Anyway, after all the traps were fixed, Sui Xiong once opened them all, and then created a clone with a physical fitness similar to that of a normal person and tried to break through.

As a result... even if he knew which traps he had to face, his avatar only broke a fifth of the distance and fell into the trap.

"NICE!" Withdrawing his clone, Sui Xiong laughed, "This is what I want!"
