285: Huge defensive wall

Tian Ming seemed to be testing the loyalty of the two Corpse Kings.

Iron Dude and Dr. Qiao were slightly stunned, clearly not expecting Tian Ming to ask such a question.

They looked at each other, then shook their heads simultaneously, emitting low voices: "We only wish to serve our Master. Humans, to us, are friends, not food. We dare not disobey Master's command."

Tian Ming nodded, a satisfied smile on his face: "But you are not smart enough. Even if your bodies have evolved beyond most Corpse Kings, you are still muscle-brained zombies."

The two Corpse Kings looked at each other, not understanding what their Master meant!

Tian Ming paused, then continued: "Go to the other side and be a spy for me. The notable Corpse Kings under Jiang Chen have already signed spiritual contracts with him. When you get there, develop freely, do whatever you want. It would be best if you could evolve into a Corpse Emperor like Jiang Chen."

Iron Dude and Dr. Qiao showed a hint of astonishment on their faces, and Iron Dude said: "Master, are you abandoning us?"

Tian Ming shook his head and said: "Among all Corpse Kings on the continent, Jiang Chen is the most respected. I will lift the restrictions on you. What I want is for you to establish your own power among the corpse race and contend for power with Jiang Chen."

"Master, what do you mean by this? Dr. Qiao and I can't possibly integrate back into the corpse race. Even if the spiritual contract is lifted, we are still traitors to the corpse race."

Iron Dude was right. Although he was a zombie, he and Dr. Qiao had stayed in the Shelter for too long and had become friends with some people, and they had already recognized human emotions, possessing some human feelings.

Tian Ming looked at the two Corpse Kings and said indifferently: "I don't want you to truly be spies. I just want you to establish your own power within the corpse race and become my eyes and ears. This way, I can better understand the situation of the corpse race and better formulate strategies."

Iron Dude and Dr. Qiao exchanged a confused glance, then said in unison: "Master, we don't know how to establish power, nor do we know how to contend for power with other zombies. We only know how to be loyal to you and serve you."

Tian Ming smiled slightly and said: "Go first. When you evolve to a certain level and become smarter, you will naturally understand what to do."

The two Corpse Kings showed a hint of hesitation upon hearing this.

They didn't know if this was the right thing to do, but they both knew that their Master's command must be obeyed.

So, they said in unison: "Okay, Master, we will do our best."

Tian Ming nodded slightly. He condensed a piece of nano-alloy and a piece of superconductor material.

Iron Dude took the nano-alloy, while the superconductor material was given to Dr. Qiao.

Tian Ming said: "Iron Dude, carefully observe the material ratio and spatial structure of the nano-alloy, and evolve in this direction. If one day you can change the proportion of your own metal elements, you will become indestructible. Dr. Qiao, it's the same for you. If there are new materials in the future, I will bring them to you."

The two Corpse Kings nodded slightly, turned, and left, disappearing into the depths of the mountain range in an instant.

Tian Ming began to work. He was going to build a circular wall 50 meters wide, 100 meters high, and over six hundred kilometers long, all by himself.

This wall would be even grander than building a dam.

A month ago, if Tian Ming were to build it, it would probably take a very long time.

However, for the current Tian Ming, this was no longer a big problem.

He took a deep breath, and the power of elemental control within his body began to surge.

Over the past month, he had absorbed countless Red Crystal Cores, and the elemental efficiency of his full elements had almost doubled, with his control radius reaching one hundred meters.

He raised his hand and waved, and a thick steel bar was driven fifty meters into the ground.

As he manipulated it, the structure of the entire stratum began to change, and a large amount of iron elements gathered, turning into building materials.

Under Tian Ming's control, these materials began to arrange and combine according to his will.

In just over ten minutes, a giant steel structure one hundred meters long had formed.

This steel structure was fifty meters wide and one hundred meters high, like a great steel wall, standing on the earth.

Tian Ming did not stop. He flew into the distance, and with a wave of his hand, hundreds of thousands of tons of concrete began to form.

This concrete seemed to have a life of its own, automatically pouring and shaping.

The distant mountain peak was lowered by one meter by Tian Ming, providing raw materials for the wall's construction.

Under Tian Ming's control, the skeleton of this giant wall began to form rapidly.

Thick steel pillars rose from the ground, supporting the entire wall's structure.

The outer wall of the wall was made of thick concrete, and the inner wall was inlaid with sturdy steel plates.

As time passed, the wall continuously extended, and in just one day, a tall wall appeared on the ten-kilometer mountain range of the Shelter.

The surrounding mountains all became raw materials for the construction of the wall.

This wall was like a steel behemoth, standing in the wilderness.

In ten hours, Tian Ming completed over ten kilometers of wall construction; this speed was terrifying.

The average speed was 1 to 2 kilometers per hour, and the mountain rocks outside the wall all became materials for Tian Ming's construction.

This wall was not entirely solid; every fifty meters, it had room-like designs, similar to a building, which not only increased the wall's stability but also reserved space for various facilities that might be needed in the future.

Each room was square, reserving space for future weapon warehouses, barracks, machine rooms, and power stations, in case of need.

In terms of room volume, the interior of this wall was equivalent to a circular city.

It reserved enough space for future armament.

With a wave of his hand, hundreds of thousands of tons of concrete formed, automatically pouring and shaping.

Tian Ming was not only building the wall but also shaping complex passages and facilities within the wall.

The entire process lasted for over sixty hours, and the rough draft of this circular grand project was completed.

Even the drying, Tian Ming had already done.

When Tian Ming stopped his work, a spectacular wall already stood on the earth.

This wall was not only tall and sturdy but also had extremely ample internal space reserved, like a self-sufficient small city.

When Tian Ming returned to the Shelter, everyone's gaze, especially those from the Alliance, had changed.

In the face of such power, all those who had previously harbored some dissatisfaction fell silent.

The so-called Superpower Users were nothing in front of Tian Ming.

The steel-reinforced concrete wall, over six hundred kilometers long, would require nearly eighty trillion tons of material if it were solid.

Even with rooms inside the wall, the total amount of material used would be over thirty trillion tons. (Friends who like to calculate can calculate the volume and weight of reinforced concrete themselves; my numbers are not random.)
