After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 584

At this time, the outer walls were no less chaotic than the interior. Maybe even more so because there were a lot more people there.

The majority of both forces were in this area added to the chaos created by the citizens themselves.

There were still three large teams outside, who were blocked in time before they could follow Althea’s footsteps of smooth sailing to the inner walls.

If even a portion of these teams passed through, then Altera would’ve won this war. However, no one was complacent. They headed to the walls with the attitude that the other two teams were blocked.

Two of these teams were already by the walls, just waiting to get past.

Drake, Henry, and the others were also there. When the Alterans started causing chaos in the inner walls, almost all of the guards were summoned in that area, leaving a lot of openings for them to sneak out of.

Even the redheaded Jona, after seeing that Althea had gotten the situation inside under control, also went out to assist.

Anyway, their ’number’ wasn’t counted to the winning quantity so they knew they’d be most helpful assisting the Alterans in.

Everyone knew what the requirement to win was. They didn’t even have to defeat everyone, they just had to get a certain number inside the inner walls and that was it.

This was actually quite humane, and they were planning on taking advantage of it to minimize the damages they had to commit.

It was easier said than done, of course.

Excluding the hundreds of guards that were in the inner walls, there were still nearly a thousand Fargo guards on the outer walls.

However, although there were more guards outside the territory, the outer wall had a far larger area and scope than the inside. This meant it was much more difficult to defend.

This was why the remaining Alterans opted to divide into three groups, targeting to go to specific areas to go through.

Before the war, Santos and Leon—as the Terran Mercenary Team members who had been staying in Fargo a lot longer than others—had been assigned to study the city wall, as well as determine the blindspots.

Though aether letters were handed by Drake, they had forwarded this data to Garan’s team outside, who then forwarded it to the Alterans who entered the array.

One of these teams was in the Eastern part of the territory. It was composed of more than a hundred people. It was led by Reno, Jona, Santos, the crow trio (who had found them at some point), and many others. They were guarded by Santos as one of the people on their side beyond the level cap.

Santos might not be able to attack due to his level, but as someone in the territory walls before the war started, he could still assist their side in whatever way he could.

This team had the fastest progress. They were ready to climb up the wall using earth stairs similar to what Althea and the others did. This time, it was made by Santos and Reno.

Jona and the others began to climb up, weapons out in case they got noticed. About a handful had managed to cross before Santos’ eyes widened and he abruptly turned to face a direction.

"Watch out!" Santos yelled, immediately throwing an earth rock to block an incoming arrow. He wasn’t able to stop it completely, but it did skew its course so the target only got grazed.
