The human champion fleet began to collect usable resources from the factories, a large amount of weaponry and equipnt—which was exactly what the fleet desperately needed to replenish.
The soldiers were very happy. For the ordinary soldier, annihilating a different race was a joy in itself, not to ntion obtaining plentiful spoils of war.
Thus, a large number of soldiers burned the Beastn corpses while cleaning up the spoils.
However, the officers and players beca vigilant amidst their joy.
In the bridge, an urgent eting was convened.
"This abandoned city is less than two hundred kiloters away from Border City. It is one of the preferred targets for scavengers. And the last ti we ca here, we didn’t find any Beastn," the sniper Old Zhao said, "aning in the last half month, the Beastn have assembled in this scale."
Old Zhao’s squad had left the Border Giant City half a month earlier, rushing to the Fla Emperor Giant City to transmit and bring back intelligence. On the way back, they encountered Beastn and tead up with Li Changhe.
"The Beastn have their divinity’s protection and can easily piece together and craft equipnt that defies the laws of physics. They can even turn clumps of earth into steel. But in just half a month’s ti, it shouldn’t have developed this fast. I took a glance, and there are over eight hundred un-assembled abnormal tanks. The number of weapons and ammunition is countless," Moon God said, "They either had preditation, or they received so sort of support."
"Moreover, being less than two hundred kiloters away from Border City ans that once they have ford an army, they can assault Border City in a short period of ti!" Commissar Auro reminded.
"That’s right," Colonel Jiang Qi said, "Their plan is probably to surprise attack Border City. But with these numbers, I expect they’ll all be expended outside the high walls. However, that gigantic Beastman ch could be sowhat dangerous."
The giant city, as humanity’s final holand, has extre Defense Power. The steel high walls are capable of withstanding nuclear bombs, and the countless artillery fire makes the Different Race tremble.
Almost every citizen in the giant city is a soldier, with hundreds of thousands ready to fight in the Defense Force.
And nearly every giant city has nuclear bombs, either to use against the enemy or to ensure mutual destruction.
"Given the less than thirty-thousand Beastn, even if all were military personnel, they wouldn’t cause too much trouble for the giant city. They would be eradicated at the foot of the high walls," stated Colonel Jiang Qi, an ex-Defense Force officer, with confidence, "Unless... unless sothing happens within the giant city at so point."
He was reminded of his own Sky Mountain Giant City, where the corrupt City Lord assassinated almost all the high-ranking leaders of the Defense Force, locked down the defense firepower, and opened all the city gates. That led to the people of Sky Mountain Giant City being corrupted by the Great Chaos Demon before they could react. Countless Defense Force soldiers were torn apart by artillery while asleep.
Otherwise, in head-to-head combat, even if they couldn’t win, they would have ti to flee and hide in the Bottom Nest.
"Could it be that Beastn have already infiltrated Border City, preparing to coordinate from inside and outside?" Old Zhao’s expression was sowhat ugly. With over ninety percent of Sky Mountain Giant City’s population corrupted, he did not want his fellow citizens to also suffer such a fate.
"But Beastn don’t have the ability to corrupt minds or flesh. The trouble with Beastn cos from their rate of spread. Don’t look at them as flesh-and-blood creatures; in actuality, they are a type of plant, a type of fungus. When their bodies rot, they turn into spores that drift onto soil suitable for growth, sprouting new Beastn the following year. Plant Beastn and you get Beastn. Hence, so giant cities’ Bottom Nest might have residual Beastn. But that’s all," Blue Dragon Slayer warned, "Even if Beastn coordinate from the inside and outside, if their numbers are insufficient, it would be in vain. If there are too many, they will be discovered."
"What do they want to do then?" the officers pondered, "Just to gather strength? Compete for territory? But this is also too close to the giant city."
Li Changhe was in deep thought. Regardless of the enemy’s purpose, it seed that his fleet had effectively disrupted their deploynt plans.
At least no outsider knew yet that his newly established fleet would co to Border City.
Perhaps that escaped Skull Crusher was currently cursing him for being such a troublemaker? Heh...
"Regardless, let’s continue to move closer to Border City," Li Changhe said, then turned to Old Zhao and the human Demon Army mbers who ca from Border City, "You are from Border City, so take on the responsibility of contacting Border City and inform them of our fleet’s intent. If possible, allow us to enter the city for repairs."
Old Zhao and the human Demon Army mbers from Border City nodded.
As negotiators, they had a daunting task; otherwise, if their own fleet, sailing aboard the Chaos Warship and donning the Chaos Armor, were to be mistaken for the cohorts of Chaos, that would be terrible.
Following the eting’s conclusion, the officers bid farewell and left. Having just fought a war, they had nurous tasks to handle.
People from the Border City began their own strange actions, placing the bodies of their fellow city’s warriors into body bags, and a Transcendent pulled out a talisman to seal those corpses.
After learning of this, Li Changhe asked the demonic army from the border city, "What exactly is your Eternal Army?"
"General," the demonic troops spoke, "Before becoming soldiers, everyone in our Border City signs a contract. Even in death, they fight for the Border City. Beyond that, we truly know very little. Even within the army, there is pitifully little understanding of the Eternal Army. The giant city does not utilize the Eternal Army unless absolutely necessary."
Li Changhe nodded slightly, deciding to wait until contact with the Border City was established before inquiring with the higher-ups there.
Of course, because of the Evil God, one must harbor so skepticism towards any high-level individuals. It’s still necessary to keep one’s guard up.
So, Li Changhe asked, "What is the na of your City Lord?"
The demonic army replied with a na, the tone full of respect.
After the previous City Lord realized he couldn’t resist the corruption of Chaos and chose to commit suicide publicly, the giant city fell into chaos, and the different factions began an ard conflict. Chaos took advantage of the disorder.
But he managed to stem the tide and stabilize the situation. He personally led a small team of sentinels, brutally suppressing the rebellion and expelling Chaos, thus firmly becoming the King of the Border City.
Although there were complaints about him fully supporting the Hellsprings Reverse fleet, the soldiers still respected this City Lord deeply.
Li Changhe was taken aback and let out a laugh. What an unexpected acquaintance! Indeed, a powerhouse capable of reaching such heights in the main world would not go unnoticed in this world either.
Afterward, the fleet made so adjustnts and then set sail once again.
As they drew closer to the Border City, the sentinels of the Border City also spotted the fleet.
After the initial shock, the sentinels imdiately sounded the alarm and prepared for battle.
At each sentinel post, anti-aircraft guns were aid at the fleet.
After all, the majority of the warships in the fleet were Chaos Warships, heavily styled after Evil Spirits. Misunderstandings were easy to co by.
Fortunately, Old Zhao and the others, who had landed ahead of ti, approached the outpost and confird their identity.
The sentinels promptly transmitted all the information to the rear.
But the sentinels remained vigilant.
After all, who would normally believe that soone corrupted by Chaos into a Demon General still had rationality? And could defect from the main ship of Chaos and kill several Great Chaos Demons?
Inside the giant city, Chen Yu and the other Great Wall players, after so maneuvering, finally gained the trust of the giant city.
And at last, they t the City Lord of the giant city.
He sat in the conference room’s chair, looking at Chen Yu as she approached, his face revealing the familiar smile she had known since childhood.
"So it really is you. I thought it was just a coincidence of nas," Chen Yu said with a light laugh as she tore off her disguise.
"The sayings from the other world are indeed true... A little sister from another world," the City Lord also said with a light laugh. "Do you have a partner yet? Don’t remain an old maid."
The Border King, Chen Tianjiao!
