After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 694

Meanwhile, war raged outside, with more and more slaves trying to destroy the gates with sheer numbers.

They didn’t care about anything else but to damage Belluga’s walls and gates. This was why there were a lot of deaths so early on the enemy’s side.

Only a few hours after the war began, there were already hundreds of corpses and injured people lining up the walls.

It was a nauseating sight.

What’s more, Slaves weren’t counted in the numbers—it was as if they had no identity.

That was to say, even if they comprised most of the enemies, and even if they all died, the attacking territory wouldn’t lose.

It was the main reason war slaves were so sought after. They could cause so much damage to a defending territory, yet they were basically risk-free.

However, seeing so many deaths, Jake and the others were naturally boiling.

But this was the way of the world and they weren’t powerful enough to change it.

At least not yet.

Regardless of whatever internal issues they struggled with, these slaves would just try to consume the forces here and try to damage part of the walls, which wouldn’t be easy.

Instead of wasting energy (and question morality) with these slaves, the Alterrans focused on the stronger people who had managed to sneak in, causing damage.

Some time ago, a few enemies managed to enter by creating ladders on another part of the wall while the slaves distracted the rest of the territory.

There were others but about a dozen were already visible from where the Alterrans were. As soon as they entered, they slashed away at the guards and civilians alike. _{fгeewebnovёl.com}

Even from their location, they could see a few aborigines stabbing people with massive grins on their lips.

"Tsk," Jake cursed and he turned to the other guards. "Spread out," he said, "Half of you stay here, the others find where they’re climbing from and get rid of those inside."

"Yes sir!"

He jumped down and sprinted towards the nearest scuffle. Here a few enemies were terrorizing guards and citizens, some of whom dragged people from inside their homes to either kill or injure.

This was actually not necessary to win the war—they simply had to be inside—but they seemed to relish in the screams and terror such actions gave.

Jake cursed as he lunged, using his ability to push the enemies away from their victims. He was beyond the level limit so this was all he could do.

Reno, also an earth user, was right next to him. However, unlike him, he could actually do damage.

Jake created a little slope for him, and Reno used it to lift himself up. Rocks floated, surrounding his fists with hard rock. With the additional force of gravity and his entire weight, he barrelled down on two enemies’ heads with the makeshift weapon he created.

BANG!

"Ahhhh!"

"Damnit!!"

The two did not allow the enemies to get their bearing. Jake trapped them to the ankles with his abilities, while Reno raised his sword to behead them.

Just like this, the couple of leaks in the area were taken care of—swiftly and cleanly.
