After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 523

Fargo, Present

BANG!

BANG!

BANG!

The eerie sound of the monsters banging on the walls and the gate echoed in the territory, waking everyone up even before Fargo could announce the upcoming war.

"What’s going on?" The guards yelled, and it so happened that a few dozen men had entered the territory. They were guards, for sure, and they had been looking for them for a while! "Hey!"

They come back after going missing for so long, and even bringing along a mob with them! The bastards!

But the newcomers—all bloodied and terrified—were only shaking. "Kill them! Kill them!" They yelled, before pushing themselves up and running in various directions.

ROARR!!

This seemed to have made the monsters even angrier, banging on several sections of the wall with all their might.

At first, the guards around could not be bothered by the newcomers and gathered together to stab down the monsters. The guard captain in the area happened to be Peko, who had just been promoted from guarding the mines. He stared at one of the guards, yelling at them.

"Where’s Victor?! Call them!" This had been their default move the past few weeks and it had always served them well.

However, some minutes later, the guards returned with pale faces.

"Their house is empty!!"

"What?!" Peko yelled and the other guards gaped at them. Victor and the others weren’t here? Were they supposed to kill all these monsters—averaging level 8—all by themselves?

They tried to stab down the monsters, but their levels weren’t very high—those who were level 9 and above were precisely the people who brought these beasts here—and soon more and more guards were pulled down the wall to be mauled by the monsters.

What’s worse, they noticed that there were more and more monsters getting attracted and they were starting to feel the wall crumble.

"SHIT!!!"

Anyway, they didn’t want to risk their lives for the monsters. One by one, the guards either fell to the monsters’ mouths or left the area.

They ran away, leaving the wall completely vulnerable!

BANG!

BANG!

CRASH!

ROARRR!!

As such, it didn’t take long before several sections of the wall gave way, the monsters who had managed to squeeze in immediately ran in specific directions!

That was—oddly—towards the bloodied newcomers they had been following!

"WHAT THE—" One yelled as he dragged himself. He was one of the heavily injured ones who had used all his strength to get back to the territory. But, for some reason, even when there were so many houses with so many people, the monster somehow found him!

He was thrown up, landing straight to the monster’s mouth.

Squelch, squelch, squelch

One of his companions saw this and cursed, running in the direction of the smaller houses in hopes of getting it off his tail. "SHIT! SHIT!"

He ran as fast as his body allowed. He went through the streets, damaging a few houses, and eventually reached the shanty areas full of unprotected people!

The people from the shanties had run away as soon as they realized the walls were breached. They had learned the hard way that their homes would be the first to be destroyed during a breach.

"KYAAA!" Screams abound and everyone went away, looking for new places to hide.

"HELP ME, PLEASE!"

"HELPPP!"

"QUEIT!" Vivian yelled, trying to keep her calm as she saw the corner end of the area had monsters running through. "They’re not here yet! Do you want them to go to us?!"

This shut the people up and many followed Vivian, who seemed to have kept her head. Vivian was a journalist who went through various things to get a scoop. She naturally had a better reaction than everyone else.
