Chapter 54

Cheng Yang put away the Spirit of Ice and Snow and then returned to the crowd. At this point, some people's health had not yet fully recovered, so Cheng Yang sat down to wait.

"Boss, what good stuff did you get this time?" Yu Kai and the other three all crowded over.

Cheng Yang did not hide it, took out the Spirit of Ice and Snow, and handed it to them, saying, "Take a look yourselves."

Yu Kai was the first to grab it and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "A special class? Is it very powerful?"

Cheng Yang said, "I don't know, we haven't changed classes yet, right? We'll know after we change classes. But since it's a special class, it should be a bit stronger than ordinary classes."

Yu Kai and the others agreed, but they had no desire for the Spirit of Ice and Snow. After all, Cheng Yang had obtained it, and they themselves were not mages.

After everyone had fully recovered, Cheng Yang led them out of the dungeon.

Back in the main world, Cheng Yang continued to lead everyone north. Although the battle in the dungeon was thrilling, the rewards were very abundant. The total spirit energy points gained by everyone added up to nearly a thousand. Especially the Spirit of Ice and Snow, which was invaluable to Cheng Yang.

"Lord, are we going to continue this dungeon tomorrow?" Liu Hao was eager for more, as the speed of gaining spirit energy points in such battles was very fast, and the danger was not as high as outside, since the monsters inside refreshed according to a certain pattern.

Cheng Yang said, "We can't finish exploring all the rescue points in the north today, so we will definitely need to come back tomorrow. We'll do the dungeon again then. In the future, if I have no other plans, I'll bring you to do this dungeon. For now, you don't have the ability to do this dungeon alone, unless your overall strength reaches the mid-apprentice level, or you have five high-apprentice level experts."

Liu Hao's requirements were not high; he just wanted to be able to do the dungeon under Cheng Yang's leadership. As for acting alone, he wasn't arrogant enough for that. If it weren't for Cheng Yang's skill of transferring attributes, they would have all been wiped out in there today.

By four o'clock in the afternoon, Cheng Yang had searched seven or eight rescue points in the north of Xiangcheng City, but the results were not very good. They only found the families of two combatants. Another combatant's family had already been confirmed dead, which was undoubtedly a sad thing.

In the evening, the group of several thousand people returned to Luofeng Village. These extra people were naturally those they had rescued on the way back. Now the population of Luofeng Village had exceeded 15,000, which would have been considered a large town in the past, but now it was only a second-level village.

The original Luofeng Village was already very crowded, and now with the addition of over 3,000 more people, it was even more cramped.

However, Cheng Yang had already planned for this and did not directly bring these people back into Luofeng Village. He went in first and then chose to build a second-level wall on the territory altar.

The moment Cheng Yang made his choice, a light curtain enveloped Luofeng Village again, and it slowly dissipated after a few moments. When the light completely disappeared, a sturdy wooden wall had surrounded Luofeng Village.

The new wall was still only three meters high, but it was much thicker. The area enclosed by the wall covered nine square kilometers, which was nine times larger than before.

Of course, these were just surface changes. The most critical was the change in the wall's attributes. Now the wall's defense had doubled, and its durability had reached 5,000 points. Even if a large group of mid-first-stage mutated beasts attacked, Luofeng Village could remain safe.

This scene also shocked most of the people in Luofeng Village. Even though some had seen the construction of buildings before, none of them had the same grandeur as the wall's construction. This scene, like the descent of a deity, was unforgettable for everyone.

After building the wall, the 500 cubic meters of wood obtained by Luofeng Village today was completely used up. Fortunately, with the removal of the largest wood consumer, only a few shops needed to be built, bringing the territory closer to an upgrade. However, the remaining 20,000 spirit energy points still gave Cheng Yang a headache.

Currently, the territory's spirit energy points were zero. The spirit energy points earned today and the part returned by the combatants who had already changed classes had all been consumed by those who changed classes later. After all, adding over 600 combatants in one day required over 6,000 spirit energy points, and although this consumption was rolling, it still took time to replenish.

Without territory spirit energy points, the upgrade of the territory statue's attributes had to be put on hold. However, when Cheng Yang opened the priest statue's attribute panel, he found that its second-level magic defense enhancement was already upgrading. By tomorrow morning, after upgrading physical defense, the priest statue would smoothly reach level 3.

In the early stages, with the availability of life potions, the priest class seemed somewhat redundant, as if its only purpose was to save a bit of spirit energy for combatants. However, this was not the case. The effect of life potions could be interrupted after being attacked. As the priest's class level increased, their skills would become more diverse, including the current angelic inspiration skill, making the priest a sought-after member in every team.

After discussing with Yu Kai and others, they finally decided to arrange all the unclassed civilians in the outer village, the area between the inner first-level wall and the outer second-level wall. Although this might seem unfair, in this cruel post-apocalyptic world, was there such a thing as fairness? What Cheng Yang could do was to ensure relative fairness within a certain range.

This involved the relocation of over 10,000 people. Although these civilians did not have houses or much in the way of supplies, they still had simple bedding and mats, which they had found in the ruins and were now essential for their lives. Therefore, the relocation was still time-consuming.

For Cheng Yang, all time-consuming tasks were delegated to others. His main task was to earn spirit energy points.

After today's battle, the spirit energy points in his account finally broke through to 5,500. Over 2,000 points were from yesterday's surplus, and the other 3,000 points were partly earned today and partly returned by the lumberjacks. If he added the 4,000 points he had lent out, after another sweep tonight, he could gather 10,000 spirit energy points. The sixfold training speed was just around the corner.

Cheng Yang came to the mage statue and took out the Spirit of Ice and Snow, then placed it on the statue.

The Spirit of Ice and Snow instantly burst into intense blue light, attracting the attention of everyone around. However, seeing that Cheng Yang was operating it, they did not come to ask.

After a few moments, the Spirit of Ice and Snow disappeared from Cheng Yang's hand, and he then opened the mage statue's attribute panel.

The statue's attributes did not change much, but a special class category appeared below the learnable skills. In this category, there was the option of Ice Mage.

Ice Mage (1).

This meant that the mage statue in Luofeng Village had one slot for an Ice Mage class, and this slot was not counted in the statue's total class slots.

Cheng Yang tried to open the Ice Mage's class introduction and operation panel but found that he could not. It seemed that he could only operate it after changing classes.

Without hesitation, Cheng Yang directly changed his class. A blue energy ball shot out from the statue and instantly merged into Cheng Yang's body, rapidly transforming his body. Cheng Yang felt as if his body was immersed in an ice cellar.

After a few moments, the transformation ended, and Cheng Yang's body began to warm up. In this short time, his attributes had undergone significant changes.
