Chapter 518: Firearms are a good card (1/2)

The Miracle City City Lord had encountered assassins in the city, if this was known, it would have a bad effect.Chu Tian didn’t want to break Miracle City’s peaceful image, so he chose to stop this information.

Didn’t no one see this?

Chu Tian also wasn’t injured, so treat it as if it didn’t happen!

This matter however was an alarm for Chu Tian that people haven’t set their hearts down on destroying Miracle City.An open spear was easier to guard against than a hidden dagger, there would always be thieves hiding. There would be a second time if there was a first time!

The Eternal Forest vice speaker Ulysses was sent by the Elven King to Miracle City to help Chu Tian’s group investigate.

Meng Qingwu asked, “Can you tell who did it?”

“It’s hard!”Ulysses shook his head and said, “We have investigated the corpses, but we haven’t found anything that could identify them.”

How could they feel assured with this answer?

Chu Tian and Meng Yingying were almost hurt and this was their territory!The ambushers were this strong, even including Spirit Transformation Experts with rare source spirits.If Chu Tian’s cultivation did not increase and he learned a new technique, who knows what would have happened?

Meng Qingwu asked in a dissatisfied voice, “Being able to send this kind of lineup, there are several dozen powers that can do so.Which one do you think is more suspicious?”

“This ambush included spirit beasts and dark elves.”Ulysses knit his brows and said, “If speculating from their race, the spirit beasts favour the Savage Highlands, but the Savage Highlands don’t have any dark elves.Only the Dragon Ridge has this group.”

This guess was groundless and even if it were right, there was no meaning.

“Although we don’t have any proof, I’m certain it was done by them!”Chu Tian stood up and said, “Not settling a grudge is not my style!”

Miracle City could barely keep itself safe, could they fight against these giant powers?They were existences that were on the same level as the Eternal Forest!

Everyone looked at him.

This fellow wouldn’t be wanting to do something astonishing again, right!

Chu Tian announced, “This matter is a warning.We need to strengthen our defenses and finish the city protective barrier as soon as possible.Moreover, each high level members must bring enough guards and City Return Scrolls to prevent any accidents.On the other hand, we can’t swallow this insult. We need to use action to tell the forest that Miracle City is not a soft persimmon that anyone can pinch!”

“Naturally we need to increase our defenses, how are you prepared to deal with them?We can’t easily afford to offend these fellows and it might create a large war if it is handled improperly.Miracle City can’t afford another fight!”

“City Lord Chu Tian, don’t be swayed by your emotions!”Ulysses was covered in sweat. Now that the elves’ cooperation with Miracle City increased each day, if Chu Tian made a mess, the Eternal Forest would be in for bad luck, “Let me say this first, the elves will not enter any fights!”

Look at you thing!

Chu Tian revealed a look of disdain.

Forget it, he never expected the elves to help at all.

Chu Tian said with a smile, “What are you so nervous for, it isn’t like I don’t have any brains.Relax, I have my discretion, so you don’t need to worry about this matter!”

Although the news of the City Lord being attacked was stopped, there were still a few rumours.

This was because less than two days after Chu Tian was attacked, Miracle City began building in large amounts.In order to create a defense for Miracle City, the things they built the most were Undead Towers.

The Undead Towers in the Miracle Mountain Ranges increased by four times, with there being over a hundred towers.Each tower could only control ten thousand undead, so these Undead Towers could already control a large army of one million!

As for the choice of undead?Of course it was skeletons!

Although giant monsters like Abominations, ruthless monsters like Undead Knights, or flying soldiers like Gargoyles all had much more battle power than the skeletons, the production and maintenance of these soldiers cost too much and they could easily corrupt the area.

The skeletons were relatively weak, but after processing, they wouldn’t cause plague or corruption.It was because they were weak that more of them could be controlled. The skeletons wouldn’t just be soldiers for Miracle City, large amounts of them could be placed in mines and factories, thus creating a labour force of a million who would never be exhausted.

Miracle City sent thousands of people for a large excavation of the death ruins.

There were many bones on the surface layer and the surrounding area of the undead ruins.

These remains were immersed in death energy for tens of thousands of years, containing a powerful energy.As long as they were awakened as undead, they wouldn’t be weak.

Large amounts of bones were gathered.

Miracle City’s airships sent the boxes back after they were filled.
