After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 312

Where was this lord when his territory was being destroyed, his citizens being eaten?

He was drinking tea in his room, very leisurely, far in the center of the territory further enclosed by a level 3 stone wall with a decent amount of sentries.

The handsome middle-aged man with sharp features looked out the window of his room, overlooking the people running around, trying to fix themselves with odd satisfaction.

He oozed with a mature man’s charm. However, his expression was odd. He seemed leisurely and happy as he sat there but… he was looking at a tragic sight.

More accurately, he couldn’t see what was happening outside the inner walls, but the screams echoed and the smoke and dust told him chaos had ensued.

Amon Fargo always loved—relished in—this sight: a bit of chaos, a swipe of passion, and a dollop of despair.

Anyway, he knew the Aborigines would be able to handle the monsters, it would just take a while. Hopefully, the population outside would be reduced by a decent amount by then.

His precious territory was already so overpopulated; It was time to reduce it.

His territory was so good, he didn’t like how dirty it was becoming with so many poor people running around, begging.

The fortunate thing was that he kept the original wall, improving to level 3 with sentries, keeping the ’bad crop’ outside.

Of course, he still built a level 2 wall around the new land, which was already very kind.

As he relaxed in his seat, he made a mental note of the current situation of the territory again.

He frowned.

They only lost about a thousand people.

Were those Aborigines so strong?

Amon put the issue aside for a while, admiring his handiwork to determine his starting point in this new world—after the Protection Period.

Overall, from what he gathered from refugees, his territory was undoubtedly the best. Not only were his forces strong, and his wealth ample, but the resources were also better than others.

He had managed to find natural springs and harvest it through a refugee who had arrived. Pity he had already purchased the well some time prior, consuming a building slot, but no matter. With the current population, they needed as much as they could get.

There was also his main advantage over others: Fargo was the first to reach level three among the Terran territories.

As a reward, he obtained the customized building for free, which was just right as he realized that the original custom building option he had pushed aside was no longer available to him. There was also a new custom building available, but it was too expensive and he didn’t think he needed it, for now.

In any case, when he was arranging it, he didn’t think much except that they could create a less boring and disgusting building type.

When it was being finalized, however, he realized he had underestimated this building.

He—or a Terran architect he managed to collect—was able to mimic basic amenities from Terran, and this was more than enough compared to the trash buildings aborigines called residences.

He built a mansion out of four modules with it. He was also planning on building several communities using the module to sell it for a hundred times the price.
