238: Chapter 238 Dark Creatures Attack

The original area of the island was enough to accommodate 780,000 people.

The main purpose of this expansion was to have the land surround the warships so that the tragedy of last time would not happen again.

The Players focused on expanding the area where the warships were originally parked, continuously extending the land outward.

warships kept coming in and out, dumping the land reclamation materials they transported back into the shallow sea.

After checking their progress, Chen Fan estimated that in another two days, it would be able to accommodate all the warships.

By then, after surrounding it with a Steel Wall, the Players' survival would be greatly guaranteed.

Currently, most of the District 1 Players had upgraded to Large Patrol Boats, while a few unlucky ones were still stuck at the medium size.

But Chen Fan was not in a hurry to help them upgrade.

If their strength and mentality could not keep up, upgrading would be useless.

Once they encountered war, they would be wiped out or go offline.

"Little Luo Li, let me show you a big treasure."

Chen Fan smiled and traded the hundred or so completed steel plates to her.

"These should be able to form a section of the wall; you go over and try it out first."

Luo Li's eyes lit up after receiving them, "Brother Fan, will our walls be made of this material from now on?"

"Of course, when the time comes, we will use the Steel Wall to surround Huaxia City completely, and we won't have to worry about sneak attacks anymore."

"Mm-hmm, I'll go try it out."

Luo Li ran off in a flurry.

Seeing her like this, Chen Fan shook his head helplessly.

This girl was simply a workaholic; all she thought about was how to improve her strength.

But it was precisely because of this that Chen Fan could be more relaxed.

Otherwise, if he had to command everything himself, Chen Fan wouldn't have time to ponder other things.

"Brother, let's go find a place to set up the launch silo."

Jiu Jiu was full of excitement; she also wanted to see how the launch silo was actually built.

"Okay, I know a good place."

Chen Fan smiled and turned to look at the No. 4 clone: "Transform."

[Transforming form — nuclear armored vehicle.]

Clanking sounds rang out continuously, and the water in front churned.

Eventually, the destroyer turned into a land-and-sea amphibious armored vehicle that was 100 meters long and 50 meters wide.

Watching the armored vehicle drive onto land, Chen Fan jumped on: "Come, experience a land speed of 300 meters per second."

Jiu Jiu also jumped up excitedly.

However, after only half a minute, the two of them were clutching the handrails in embarrassment.

At a speed of 300 meters per second, if the armored vehicle hadn't been large and heavy enough, it would have taken off long ago.

But even so, the 100x50 meter armored vehicle was still switching back and forth between low-altitude flight and driving on the ground.

Soon, they arrived at their destination.

This place was located to the northwest of the island, with a cliff behind it; it was difficult for Players and Crew Members to climb up.

And since it was far from the inner sea and core buildings, usually no Players would come here, so there was no need to worry about the launch silo being discovered.

More importantly, there was a cliff behind it.

If enemies invaded the island, Ruituocuipu could retract the launch silo and use the launching grapple to escape to other islands, relocating the armored vehicle.

"Ruituocuipu, start the setup."

"Understood."

Ruituocuipu checked the surroundings and began to set up the launch silo.

Chen Fan pondered for a moment and smiled: "Have your subordinates build an underground world here too."

Ruituocuipu nodded, "That's exactly what I was thinking; the geology here is suitable for building an underground world."

At his command, 100 Goblins gave up their work on the city walls and began to dig the ground.

"There are still not enough Goblins; it would be great if there were tens of thousands of Goblins."

Hearing this, Ruituocuipu rolled his eyes, "Do you think we Goblins are some inferior race? At our peak, we only had a hundred thousand clansmen."

"That won't do; I have to help you figure out a way to get more clansmen out."

Chen Fan chuckled, "My nuclear missile cause relies entirely on you guys; didn't these experts learn their technology from your clansmen?"

Ruituocuipu rolled his eyes to the heavens, directly ignoring Chen Fan.

Five minutes later, the first launch silo was set up.

"Huh? Didn't it take ten minutes?"

Chen Fan was stunned for a moment and subconsciously checked the time.

"Arcane Aura."

Ruituocuipu was a man of few words and continued to busy himself with setting up the next one.

Chen Fan's eyes lit up, "So setting up a launch silo counts as a skill?"

Another 20 minutes passed.

All five underground launch silos were completely set up.

At this point, the Goblins had also excavated a portion of the underground passages, providing technical and personnel support for the launch silos.

Chen Fan handed the 10 nuclear missiles, each worth 1,000 Earth resources, to the Goblins.

With this, Chen Fan possessed an initial nuclear missile system.

The only fly in the ointment was that the 90 missile experts hadn't produced a single nuclear missile yet.

"Let's build a missile R&D base first, otherwise the efficiency of those experts is too slow."

"Okay."

Ruituocuipu nodded.

Scanning the area, Chen Fan left them to their own devices and returned to the side of the Main City.

At this time, the lumberjacks and miners had reached 200 people each, doubling their efficiency.

On the Main City panel, there were several buttons.

Two of them were for purchasing workers.

Each worker required 1,000 units of gold ore and Wood; at the current efficiency, they could add one worker every five trips.

The other three were construction buttons for arrow towers, cannon towers, and mysterious towers, each requiring 100,000 gold ore and Wood.

The last one was the button to upgrade the Main City, which required 10 million.

"Tsk tsk tsk, let's increase the workers to 1,000 first, and then upgrade the Main City."

"With the towers previously rewarded by the system, as well as one defense turret, it's enough for now."

Chen Fan set a command for the Main City: as long as there were enough supplies, purchase workers, setting the number to 1,000 each.

After doing this, Chen Fan had no more work to do for the moment.

Looking at the quietly standing, charming and lovely Jiu Jiu, Chen Fan smiled: "Go back and study Talent?"

"Okay, let's study more~"

[Ding!]

[Detected that Dark Creatures have broken the spatial barrier and descended upon the sea area.]

[Difficulty level: two stars, please be prepared, Players.]

At 12 midnight, the system sound rang out.

The Players were instantly awakened, shouting in low voices:

"It's over, our land hasn't expanded enough yet, and many warships are still outside."

"Stop howling, quickly send Crew Members to check."

"Where's the boss? Is the boss awake yet!"

"Quickly load the ammunition, the monsters are about to come out!"

Luo Li's voice sounded at the right time: "Stop shouting, prepare for battle!"

Chen Fan opened his eyes the moment the sound rang out.

But he did not speak in the channel, quietly observing the Players' reactions.

Fortunately, the 800 elites had made combat preparations at the fastest speed.

Those who possessed helicopters had already launched them into the air, sharing their view in the regional channel.

Unlike the previous vortex teleportation array, this time, only an energy light sphere appeared above the sea area.

The light sphere gradually expanded, turning into a huge circular door.

"Awoo—"

A shrill roar came from inside the circular door.

Immediately, dense crowds of Skeleton Soldiers crawled out.
