Chen Shu’s words made many people nod their heads slightly. Obviously, many agreed with her.
After all, with the Kingdom of Dawn’s advantage, it would not be worth it if the losses were too great.
“Eye Demon! I want to know who the enemies are, where they come from, where they are hiding, and how many of them are there. Also, have the Vine Whisker Demon and the Black Wing Demon work with you. We must ensure that nothing goes wrong.”
“Yes! God Lord!”
Ever since Li Xiang had reached level 200, most of his subordinates had referred to him as God Lord.
It was because, in their opinion, Li Xiang would definitely become a god in the future, and they would also rocket with him. Hence their sense of belonging was even stronger.
After that, Li Xiang learned more about the current development of the Kingdom of Dawn.
However, there was not much change since he had not been gone for long.
“In that case, everyone can start preparing for battle now. This was a battle that concerned the survival of the Kingdom of Dawn, so everyone must put in a lot of effort! Although our kingdom is large, it’s protected by the Starlight Canopy. Hence the enemy can’t directly attack us. However, we also have to be wary of the enemy’s treasures that can break the Starlight Canopy and launch a surprise attack on our kingdom.”
Li Xiang didn’t think that his Starlight Canopy would be enough to protect the kingdom, so he didn’t relax the defense of his territory.
The Demon Mage Commander stepped forward and said, “Lord, the cities in our kingdom are all built on the various terrain line nodes with the Lord’s Cornerstones. It is a natural array. If necessary, I can set up some other nodes to connect all the cities together and form a new big station. It can improve the defense of each city.”
“Then do it!” Li Xiang nodded.
“Yes!”
Yang Mi seemed to have thought of something and said, “By the way, Lord, the Void Warship Blueprint that you brought back last time has been studied by the Sky Workshop. Although it can’t be perfectly built, it’s still a lower-end version of the Void Warship. It may be weaker in all aspects, but its combat power is still extremely strong. The materials used are also within an acceptable range. I wonder if we should expand the production?”
“Oh?” Li Xiang’s eyes lit up, “How much of the Void Warship’s power can it reach?”
“70%!”
“Good! Do it! I’ll go take a look first. If it can reach 70% of the Void Warship’s power, then let’s build a hundred first. This is a powerful weapon for sieging a city, and it is of great importance to us!”
At this moment, Li Xiang thought of equipment that he previously had, “How many Purgatory Divine Crossbows did we build?”
Yang Mi seemed to have memorized all the data. Without any hesitation, she immediately said, “We’ve made a total of 14 million Purgatory Divine Crossbows. if there’s a need, we can produce 100,000 more every day! There are 6.5 billion arrows in total, and the six special arrows that were newly developed are a little less, only 20 million. They’re currently being produced one million a day.”
“Great! Give one Purgatory Divine Crossbow and 100 crossbow arrows to each new soldier. This was considered a standard set. Distribute the rest to the various cities and store them in case of emergency.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll make the necessary arrangements,” Yang Mi nodded solemnly.
“Oh! There is also Magic Crystal Cannon. It’s too expensive and quite difficult to be built. The cost is also quite high. But at the very least, each city at the border has to have eight Magic Crystal Cannons. Important cities could have more of them. For example, the four gateway cities in the North, South, East, and West would need at least twenty-four Magic Crystal Cannons and three thousand Purgatory Divine Crossbows! Well, this data is only for your reference. You can study the specific situation yourself!”
Li Xiang didn’t put too much energy into this matter.
“The last thing we need to do is to inform the public that the foreign races might launch a large-scale attack. This is to prevent unnecessary chaos when the enemies are here.”
“Yes!”
…
Not long after, the public announcement of the possible arrival of the foreign race army was made through various means.
It mainly relied on the identity card and the bulletin board of each city to cover almost all the people.
The announcement told everyone not to go out during this period in case anything happened.
Of course, this was only a suggestion. There was no restriction stated in the announcement.
However, this news caused a frenzy in the Kingdom of Dawn. Countless people were shocked and angry.
“As expected, the foreign races won’t give up once we’re alive. They claim that they want to get the treasures but in fact, they just think that we’re easy to bully because we’re new here. Do they think that we’re still the same as before, that we can be slaughtered at will?” a commoner in ordinary clothes said with a sneer.
“You’re right! They’ve gone too far. As long as I have the chance this time, I would like to try killing a few of them myself. I could only bear with them because I didn’t have the strength in the past. But it’s different now. The Kingdom of Dawn isn’t an ordinary human kingdom. Everyone here is transcendent!”
“Let’s calm down, everyone. We’ve only been here for a short time. If we go out with this strength, I’m afraid we won’t even be enough to fill the gaps between the enemy’s teeth! It was best to listen to the public announcement and not go out casually. We don’t have to be afraid of them, but we can’t underestimate them!”
“No matter what, whether it’s a foreign race or a beast, anyone who dares to covet our Kingdom of Dawn is our mortal enemy. It wasn’t easy for us to live a peaceful life. How could we let these foreign races destroy our hard-won lives? If they want to destroy our home, over my dead body!”
“I agree! The Kingdom of Dawn is our home. We can’t let the demons and foreign races run wild here. Even if I have to die, I want to die on the battlefields where I’m fighting against the non-humankind monsters!”
The people of the Kingdom of Dawn roared in anger when they heard the news that the foreign races were coming.
Many of them had extraordinary strength, and some of them were even hidden experts. They began to prepare.
They bought equipment, prepared potions, and even found a few friends to form a party. As long as the enemy dared to come, they would fight to the death.
However, it was a different scene in the city square.
“What’s the meaning of this announcement? It told us to leave as soon as possible. If the war starts, we have to stay here and can’t go back!”
“Are the foreign races coming? It seemed that this day had finally come. I’ve seen with my own eyes how the foreign races feed on our human race. Now that we’ve finally settled down but they’re here again. I don’t care about anything else, but I’m going to kill a few non-humankind beings to vent my anger!”
“Is there anyone who wants to leave? The foreign races are terrifying. If we don’t leave now, we may not be able to leave later. While there’s still a chance, it might be safer for us to leave in a group!”
Besides the merchants from the Kingdom of Dawn, there were also humans from other countries or forces who came here to do business.
