After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 531

Uzon immediately bellowed out orders for the guards in the outer circle. Those assigned in the southern areas would look at the fires nearby, and those in the western areas would do the same. But on second thought—

"NO. Those in the walls will remain there! Only the guards assigned on rounds will go!"

What if it was only a distraction?

So, in the end, the few hundred guards immediately mobilized.

Uzon ran to where the larger fire was, and he looked back to when they saw smoke in the interior walls as well, closely followed by a small explosion.

"Damn it!"

…

Fargo looked at the black smokes floating from several areas in his territory. Most of them could be seen from his window. They were all in different areas. It was fine if it was in the outer area, but it was happening even in the interior circle of the territory.

He liked chaos, but not in his own backyard.

However, he was the type not to fret no matter what. He stood coolly and looking at the guards passing by his street, his mind went to analyze.

Altera, according to that Sandra, was said to be the base of strong Terrans. Judging by the descriptions, he was fairly sure she was referring to Garan. They were strong, all elementalists, and overall a threat even if Altera was weaker than they were.

When he found out about this, he had indeed been planning on attacking after weakening them a bit. He already planned some action with Belize, a level 30, to especially target the soldiers.

It was just that they moved too quickly—attacking within a few days after he got Bright.

However, regardless, he still did not fret. At the very least, he knew there were only a handful of soldiers, while he had dozens of level 20s and above. In terms of forces, he believed he was still far superior to them.

So, Fargo wondered, attacking them—were the Alterans brave or just stupid?

However, it was a fact that they had taken down a lot of his forces outside the territory. He also assumed that they were also the ones responsible for taking over the mines, so they at least had some plan in facing him.

But… losing those people didn’t mean that he lost. Winning a war on the defense side was many times easier than being the attacker.

He just had to defend the territory well—in particular, only the inner walls—keeping more than half of the attackers outside until the war was over. Garan and the others were useless in the in-territory battle, and he was planning to maximize that.

Speaking of, why haven’t there been traces of the enemies trying to get inside? Did the Alteran forces get lost after being teleported? Did they just plan to depend on the few people attempting to cause them trouble with a few fires?

No, that’s not possible.

Whatever happened, he was ready. Even if the outer walls had less dense guards due to its massiveness—it was the inner circle that mattered the most.

There were hundreds of guards settled around the inner walls alone, this wasn’t including those who were making rounds.

Most of them were equipped with guns to handle any trespassers, and so far there had been no reports.

As for the people causing chaos inside, there shouldn’t be too many. Though it’d take time, the guards he assigned should be able to handle them soon.

It wasn’t that he hadn’t thought of making an announcement to everyone to hunt these people down. But he had thousands of people in the inner walls alone. Aside from Belize’s warning, there were plenty of other reasons why forcing them out would be useless.
