“Don’t worry.” Su Yu comforted, “Red-Eyed Black Dragon will be bringing people for the next wave of the city defense, which will greatly lessen the pressure on your side.”
“Also, I’ll have Swift construct more defensive buildings within the territory. We’ll try to hold at least two more waves with our player’s strength.”
“Two more waves ” The principle of Range is Truth mused.
After calculating, he nodded and said, “We players can hold at most two more waves. After that, the level of monsters in the eighth wave will be 28. We, who are only at the teens level, will not be able to hold on.”
“Oh, Boss Ke, have you thought about how you’re going to deal with the fourth wave of attack when your territory is promoted to the [County town] stage?”
“I have some thoughts. I should be able to deal with it with my connections.” Su Yu replied.
“That’s good.” The principle of Range is Truth sighed a breath of relief. “We don’t know when the next player territory will be born, but we hope to witness the birth of the first player city under your care!”
“Thanks for the good words.” Su Yu looked at his balance of spiritual energy coins and gave a confident smile.
For the next 9 days, Su Yu stayed within his territory, focusing on construction, organizing defense against monster and bandit invasions, until his territory was promoted to [Small City].
In terms of construction.
Over these 9 days, the [Yulon · Heavenly Altar of the Praying Year] was running at full capacity, burning through 19 million spiritual energy coins every day to maintain the buff.
Thanks to the powerful buff and unlimited resources and spiritual energy coins, Aphi visibly transformed from a small village into a city of decent scale with a population of 100,000.
In the city, all sorts of buildings, whether they were functional ones, commercial ones or entertainment ones, were readily available.
The overall layout of the city was rational, with convenient transport, and the citizens were happy.
So after being promoted to [Small City], the city’s prosperity is as high as [78], and its livability is at [67], which is brilliantly maintained.
As for countering the monster and bandit attacks.
The sixth wave,which was the city defense when the territory was promoted to [large town], was fought with the support of the relevant guilds and Emperor Blood Slays the Sky guild;
The seventh wave city defense battle, apart from the above two guilds, Su Yu also called on the Elite Teams from Mu Yun guild, Across the Four Seas guild. Relying on many [Fortress] buildings constructed outside the territory, after losing about 70% of their forces, they narrowly achieved victory.
After the seventh wave, the players stepped down and it was time for the NPCs to take the stage.
During the eighth wave of city defense, the average level of bandits has reached level 28, and Su Yu called for reinforcements from the Orleans town lord, 500 elite soldiers who arrived in time to participate in the battle.
These elite soldiers were all generally at either the peak of Tier 2 or at Tier 3, and it was not an exaggeration to say they fought one against ten or even one against hundred while battling the Tier 1 bandits!
After driving more than 3000 bandits back into the mountains, the 500 elite soldiers suffered only a little over twenty casualties, a near-perfect victory!
The ninth wave of city defense was also handled by these 500 elite soldiers, and currently, the territory has been promoted to [Medium-sized County Town].
However, this wave of bandits is different from the previous ones! The average level of this wave of bandits has reached level 30.
Level 30 is a critical point, it means most of the bandits have shifted from the first tier to the second tier, increasing their overall strength by 3-5 times.
Therefore, this wave of bandits caused significant casualties among the 500 elite soldiers, with about 100 soldiers dead or heavily injured, a 20% decrease in overall combat strength.
Facing such a critical situation, Su Yu went to the Unicorn camp to seek help from Tina.
To Tina, Su Yu’s business was her business.
That afternoon, Tina, accompanied by little fangirl Fiona and 500 Unicorn Knights, set out to aid Su Yu’s territory.
With the aid of Tina and the Unicorn Knights, the tenth and eleventh wave of city defense proceeded smoothly.
Finally, Aphi was about to face its twelfth wave of city defense, which was also the final battle.
However, this city defense battle was different from the previous 11 waves.
The game announcement went like this: “[Aphi] has a population of 100,000 and has successfully been promoted to [Small City]. Your actions have deeply dissatisfied Philip Strelive, Count of Falling Moon Town. In 30 minutes, Count Philip will lead his army to attack your territory, take notice of your defense.”
All the previous 11 waves were either monster sieges or bandit invasions, but this time it was an NPC army that initiated the conflict!
Falling Moon Town is located 20 kilometers directly south of Aphi city, by the sea, and is a crucial coastal town of Orleans City.
More than 90% of the marine trade of Orleans City passes through Falling Moon Town, so although it is a “Town”, its prosperity surpasses that of Orleans.
Count Philip of Falling Moon Town is exceedingly wealthy, owning a private army of 2000.
And now, he’s knocking at the door with his private army.
Half an hour later, Count Philip’s army was gradually approaching the city gate of Aphi.
Along the city walls on either side of the gate, Su Yu and the other players were preparing for a tough fight.
This attack by Count Philip’s army can be considered the last hurdle. If we cross it, the future will be bright! But if we fail to cross it
Su Yu turned his head to look at Tina beside him, “Tina, we’re counting on you this time. Remember what I told you.”
“Hmm.” Tina nodded, then soared up from the city wall, flying straight for Count Philip’s army.
When she reached above the enemy’s army, Tina stopped.
She saw that from among the enemy’s ranks, a mage dressed in a fancy red robe flew up from next to the Count, coming towards her.
Tina didn’t know this fifth-tier fire mage, but it was clear that he was the powerful enemy the Count had brought to deal with her.
Tina ignored this fire mage and instead coldly set her gaze on Count Philip on the ground:
“Philip Strelive! As a colleague of the Empire, why do you attack Nemesis’ territory?”
“Besides, you didn’t declare war two weeks prior to the attack, which is a severe violation of the rules of the game among nobles!”
“I hope you will withdraw your troops immediately. I and Nemesis will act as if this never happened. Otherwise you’ll be responsible for the consequences!”
Tina’s powerful and resonant speech made the momentum of the Falling Moon Town soldiers falter.
“Withdraw troops?” The rather plump Count Philip sneered, “First of all, in Orleans City, we don’t have to follow those useless rules of the game. Winners take all in Orleans City!”
“Secondly, the reason I brought my troops here is that the things done by Nemesis have infringed upon the interests of Falling Moon Town. If Nemesis agrees to one condition of mine, I’ll withdraw my troops immediately!”
“What’s the condition?” Su Yu asked from atop the city wall, staying calm.
