Chapter 188: Tree of the Wind
There was still half a month before the Blood Moon.
Mcgee took advantage of the time he had to return home to develop the direction of the construction of his home.
He found the blueprint of the ‘frost turret’ in the Snow city and built the frost turret together with the ‘frost spider venom gland’.
Ordinary arrow turrets could only attack one familiar at a time. Their attack power was strong, but they still lacked some lethality when faced with the Blood Moon tide that surged like the sea.
The attack power of the frost turrets was a little lower, but it was an area-of-effect building.
At the same time, it could reduce the movement speed and attack speed of the familiars that were attacked.
It was a practical building with defensive facilities and long-range attacking familiars.
As for the Snow Emblem, Mcgee took turns handing it over to his familiars to use.
After all, they were going to face a level-10 Blood Moon next.
In other words, the actual attacking familiars should all be around level-12.
If they did not have sufficiently powerful familiars to defend against it, they could only wait for their deaths.
After solving the problem of food, their living conditions were improved because of the appearance of the whale meat and a greenhouse.
Therefore, the most important thing now was to improve the defense of their home.
They had also upgraded the city walls so that they did not have to worry about the castle being breached.
Unfortunately, the moat next to the castle had a good ground defense.
However, because of the arrival of the snow season, the moat had been frozen and was now flat land.
The moat was on the periphery of their home, so it could not be affected by the greenhouse.
In the following days, Mcgee handed over the castle’s fortifications to Zhao Ling Er and the others to handle. He got Zhao Ling Er to forge armor for everyone to sell.
Although these armors were not like the Imperial Dragon Armor, which could raise people’s strength to close to that of a level eight familiar, it was better than nothing.
The new adventurers did not ask them to do anything else. They just told them to focus on buying medicinal materials from all over the world and planting them, because there might be a lot of casualties in the future. The number of offline medicines affected the survival rate.
The world channel also became more and more deserted.
After the third season, many players could not survive. They collapsed after the world channel spoke.
Nature was humanity’s greatest enemy. Compared to the attacks of familiars, the harsh natural environment was more likely to kill people.
Mcgee had also been stocking up cheap food in the world’s trading area.
He could help other people now, and he believed that the top 100 players on the leaderboards could do the same.
However, in such an environment where everyone was in danger, there were very few people who had simple values like Mcgee.
As the news of Mcgee accepting some other players spread, the players who were ranked last seemed to have disappeared.
They all chose to form their own alliances or join the home of the strong.
However, not everyone was willing to share their home. At the very least, Mcgee did not know how many alliances had been formed in the world and how many people had become the accessories of others.
He also knew that not everyone in this world had a sense of justice and love like him. How many people would become the slaves of others?
“I don’t care anymore.” Mcgee was currently leading the three-tailed Little Spirit Fox and the Snow Spirit Fox as they explored the world of ice and snow.
There were no more subdued beasts of other attributes in this world. It seemed that most of the subdued beasts had gone into hiding to prepare for the harsh winter.
According to the rules of the game, the snow and ice season would disappear in a month.
And this last month was the most difficult to endure because most of the familiars wandering outside were inedible, and their strength was astonis.h.i.+ng.
Through his battles with these familiars, Mcgee had raised the level of his familiars to level-12.
Only then would he have a chance to fight the Blood Moon familiars.
It was just that he did not know what kind of opponent he would face in this attack.
However, while Mcgee was exploring, he discovered that an extremely huge tree had suddenly appeared at sea level.
From his point of view, this tree seemed to have pierced straight into the clouds.
It was definitely a tree that had suddenly appeared in the third season. This was because Mcgee had been to this area many times before, and he had never seen this tree before.
When he came to the bottom of the tree, he discovered that not only was this tree astonis.h.i.+ngly tall, but its width was also on par with the Four-footed Ice Whale he had killed previously.
“I want to go up and take a look,” said Mcgee.
They had found the Snow Spirit Fox through diving. Mcgee thought that since the tree appeared in the center of the map, it meant that there must be precious props on it, which might help them get through the current crisis.
The current temperature had reached-50 degrees.
If not for the Snow Emblem, the Little Spirit Fox would not have been willing to leave their home. Mcgee had also put on very thick clothes.
Unfortunately, Zhao Ling Er’s dwarves only knew how to make armor, and could not make warm clothes at all.
He could not make warm clothes. After wearing thick clothes, Mcgee found that his climb was not smooth.
A few seconds after he pulled his hand out of his pocket, he was so cold that he put his hand back into his pocket.
“The weather is too bad. Mcgee exhaled a few times into his palm.”
He believed in one thing if he started exercising, the energy released by his body would be able to withstand the cold weather for a short period of time. It was just that everything was difficult at the beginning.
He turned his gaze to the Little Spirit Fox. The Little Spirit Fox’s cold resistance was definitely above his.
If he could hand over the Snow Emblem to him…
Therefore, Mcgee could only bring the Snow Spirit Fox as a familiar and climb up the towering sky tree alone.
What was waiting for him on the top of the tree?
There were less than seven days left before the Blood Moon attack, and the construction of his familiars and home was almost complete.
However, Mcgee still had a lingering ominous premonition in his heart. He had a feeling that the Blood Moon attack this time would not be as simple as the previous two.
He wanted to look for the old wolf and the lava cave, but he found that they were already sealed by a thick layer of ice.
The thickness of the ice made Mcgee despair, unable to break it open.
He could not guarantee whether the creatures inside were alive or dead.
What made Mcgee even more pa.s.sive was that in the world of ice and snow, other than ice-type familiars that could display their normal strength, all other elements, whether it was metal, wood, water, fire, or earth, could only pa.s.sively take a beating.
No wonder there was only absolute zero in this world and no absolute high temperature.
When the molecules stopped moving, all the strength was just a number.
Mcgee was climbing the tree while his thoughts ran wild.
Fortunately, Mcgee had the ice and snow coat of arms. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to climb the tree, because the temperature in the high sky was falling.
He could no longer see the stones on the ground when he looked under the tree. He was now about two kilometers above the ground, and he looked up, still far from the end.
After four hours of climbing, Mcgee finally saw the top of the tree.
