Realized Game: I Hoarded 10 Billion Defense Towers

WHOOSH.

The Nine-Star Array, formed from glowing silver lines, merged into the Heaven-Reaching Tower.

The Heaven-Reaching Tower, where the monsters’ strength had been boosted by nearly a thousand times, suddenly flashed with light.

Then, before everyone’s shocked eyes, the thousand-meter-thick Heaven-Reaching Tower abruptly shrank, its volume decreasing tenfold. The eight monster-spawning portals on its sides vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye.

CRACKLE!

CRACKLE!

CRACKLE!

The Heaven-Reaching Tower immediately stopped spawning monsters.

The monster tide that had already surged five kilometers beyond the tower’s perimeter was swiftly annihilated by the Defense Towers under Shen Fei’s personal control.

WHOOSH.

A minute later, all the monsters were cleared.

The world was instantly bright!

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

"Huh!?"

The Heaven-Reaching Tower had shrunk in an instant, becoming a small, semi-ethereal tower, and the endless horde of monsters had vanished without a trace.

The players who had just been desperately fighting off the monster tide were all stunned.

When they saw the outline of a city faintly appearing in the distance under the morning sun, they were even more dumbfounded.

Everything had changed too quickly!

WHOOSH!

WHOOSH!

WHOOSH!

Seeing Li Yunlong, Zhang Qiqiang, Wang Dapang, and the others walking toward him, Shen Fei thought for a moment. With a wave of his hand, he summoned a vast bank of fog. He hid all the other previously teleported cities in the fog, leaving only the small city, [Peter’s Castle], visible.

It’s done!

Seeing the expectant looks on everyone’s faces, Shen Fei didn’t waste any words. He directly opened a Teleportation Gate and brought everyone before [Peter’s Castle], the city he had already claimed, located just south of Qing City.

WHOOSH.

Watching the crowd rush into the castle with faces full of joy and anticipation, Shen Fei smiled faintly and stepped inside as well.

Everyone had participated in the capture of [Peter’s Castle], so he planned to open it to all of Qing City.

As for the other eight cities—which he had cleared the first stage of alone before defending with the Heaven-Reaching Gang—he was in no hurry to open them to others. He wanted to wait and see.

I’ve bitten off quite a lot this time... I need to play this safe!

He also needed to carefully study the Attributes of [Yang City]. More importantly, he had to think about the white-faced man from before—the one who was instantly killed before Shen Fei could even learn his name.

Just now, while defending the eight Neutral Cities, Shen Fei had actually been worried, even though his 200 Defense Towers had instantly killed the NPCs attacking [Yang City]. He was worried that after those bosses died, they might resurrect themselves and then coalesce into some "black-faced man" or "yellow-faced man."

Fortunately, that didn’t happen. His worst fear did not come to pass.

However, even though it hadn’t happened, he still needed to give it some serious thought.

His original plan had been to capture at least one small city to have a secure home base. He never expected that, due to a series of chain reactions, he would end up capturing nine cities. Among them were a special large city, [Yang City], and two medium-sized cities.

Moreover, after these nine cities appeared, they immediately sealed the Heaven-Reaching Tower, whose sudden eruption and flawed monster-spawning mechanism had been a major problem.

These were all things Shen Fei needed to think about carefully.

Now that they had captured the Neutral Cities, members of the Heaven-Reaching Gang could place their Defense Towers. His own 200 Defense Towers were fixed in [Yang City] for the time being and could not be moved. With the Neutral Cities secured, he could also finally bring out his mother’s farmland and the items inherited from support-type Game Ability Users.

All of these things required Shen Fei’s careful consideration.

The nine cities he had just captured were of various types. There was the solemn and majestic [Yang City]. There was also the gloomy and shadow-filled Ghost City. Besides those, there were also a Technology City, an Agricultural City, a Grassland City, a Mining City, a Beastman City, and so on...

Shen Fei’s nine cities now formed a city cluster. Although he had temporarily shrouded the other eight in fog, they would inevitably have to be opened eventually. It was just a matter of time.

PHEW...

After a busy night, Shen Fei took a deep breath, planning to rest for a bit. Now that he had his own Neutral Cities, things would be different in these chaotic times. At the very least, he no longer had to worry about randomly spawning monsters every day.

.

WHOOSH.

Ignoring the excited populace that had all rushed toward [Peter’s Castle], Shen Fei had a thought, stepped through a nearby Teleportation Gate, and arrived on the northern wall of [Yang City].

[Yang City] was situated directly north of Qing City, suppressing everything.

To the north of [Yang City], a body of water hundreds of kilometers long and wide had now appeared. This was the result of the great flood caused by the special character [Yu] during the previous attack on [Yang City].

"Boss!"

The Earth had grown larger, and the distant body of water now seemed to stretch beyond the horizon. As Shen Fei squinted at the view, he was joined by Gun’Er, an aide from the Heaven-Reaching Gang, who came to stand beside him.

Unlike everyone else who had gone to [Peter’s Castle], the members of the Heaven-Reaching Gang were currently spread out across the eight other cities. This was because all of their Defense Towers were placed in their respective cities. When they had followed Shen Fei to claim the cities earlier, they had dispersed among the various cities according to where their Defense Towers were located.

The only one who hadn’t moved was Sun Yu. He had kept his Defense Tower hidden for eight days, not wanting to place it randomly and then be unable to move it. In the end, the Heaven-Reaching Tower’s eruption forced him to deploy his Defense Tower at the last moment.

Now, with the war over, Sun Yu’s Defense Tower could only be temporarily placed around the Heaven-Reaching Tower.

However, the nine outer cities formed a defensive barrier. Consequently, the urban district of Qing City now fell within the new city cluster’s sphere of influence.
