Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

Page 950

The system of the Dream City completely overwhelmed the old city, and the professionals in the city quickly settled down and actively integrated into the rule.

As for faith, the process of logging into the Dream World is, in a sense, equivalent to making a faith.

There's no need to turn everyone into fanatics; just the most superficial faith connection will suffice as an anchor.

After conquering a city and taking away a gold-level being, the War King left behind a group of professionals from the Dream City to carry out renovations, and continued to conquer city after city.

On the other side, Lei Wang looked at the heavily fortified city before him, his expression remaining calm.

Nine Cauldrons City was once a famous city surrounding Blackwater City, boasting nine Gold-level warriors, making it a formidable force.

It is rare for a force to still gain a gold-level advantage after arriving here.

It is said that there were originally only five Gold-level characters, but after so many years of development, the number has increased to nine.

Upon discovering the approaching army of the Thunder King, the gold-level professionals of Nine Cauldrons City instantly activated their defensive measures. The nine gold-level professionals, like the nine cauldrons, suppressed the entire city.

With the advantages of geographical location and popular support, even if there were twice as many gold-level troops, they might not be able to break through Jiuding City.

"Hmph, only one Gold-level expert came. Does he really think that just because he's a legendary figure, he can make people surrender?" The Gold-level expert in Nine Cauldrons City squinted.

As a legendary figure who is high above others, he probably wouldn't look down on this kind of place and would likely have to leave eventually.

"What a powerful defense system!"

Looking at the Nine Cauldrons City before him, Lei Wang thought, "As expected of an established power, they really have something up their sleeve."

But unfortunately, they encountered them, a monster beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

"The entire army is in formation."

Lei Wang commanded, saying that he preferred the power of the collective to the solo efforts of Zhan Wang.

Having finally managed to get out of the way, it's only natural to let the subordinates make the most of their usual training.

Swish!

The professionals following behind Lei Wang instantly formed a tight formation according to the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiends Grand Formation.

Accompanying Lei Wang this time were only a million professionals.

However, when they united, they were even more powerful than the millions of demons in the army. In terms of both quality and coordination, the soldiers of Dream City were far superior.

With the expressions of the professionals in Nine Cauldrons City changing drastically, Thunder King also launched an attack.

"Dragnet!"

Brush brush brush…

A barrage of arrows, leaving no blind spots, instantly enveloped the entire defensive system of Jiuding City.

It's not just about blocking attacks, but also about identifying the weaknesses in the city's defense system.

After a round of attacks, Lei Wang quickly discovered the weakness of Jiuding City.

"It can penetrate anywhere!"

The Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiend Formation changed again, and the originally wide-range attacks instantly converged into several beams, which simultaneously bombarded the Nine Cauldrons City.

Click!

The defenses that Nine Cauldrons City was so proud of were breached instantly, leaving the Gold-level professionals inside utterly astonished.

"It seems the training in the Dream Realm is quite effective." Thunder King nodded in satisfaction upon seeing this.

The highest level of real combat is to perform it just like a drill.

The defenses of towns like this are only good for bullying other forces that lack resources.

For truly powerful forces, there are plenty of ways to break through.

call out!

With the defensive formation broken, the nine Gold-level experts from Nine Cauldrons City flew out and headed towards Thunder King.

"Gentlemen, between us..."

Before the nine could speak, Lei Wang took the initiative, directly fighting against all nine of them, and summoned the pseudo-thunder domain, instantly enveloping the nine gold-level experts.

The legendary lightning domain startled the nine Gold-level experts, who almost thought a legendary being had descended.

However, the result was roughly the same: even when the nine Gold-level warriors joined forces, they were still no match for the Thunder King.

"Gentlemen, it's time to make a choice?" Thunder King, riding on lightning, looked down at the nine people from his high position.

"We are willing to submit!"

……

Chapter 846 The Forest of Fear

"We are willing to submit."

"Even if it means death, I will never surrender to you!"

"kill!"

As the War King and the Thunder King advanced, one golden city after another was conquered.

However, not all golden cities will obediently submit after everyone has demonstrated their strength.

There are still people who would rather die than submit to others; sometimes, their beliefs are more important than life itself.

Some people's professional path is too deeply tied to their position. Once they choose to submit, their professional path may even collapse, leaving them with no choice but to resist.

The professionals from Dream City showed no mercy to these people.

How can one allow others to sleep soundly beside one's bed? Although giving these people more time would not threaten the status of Dream City, even if there is only a possibility, it must be nipped in the bud.

Most importantly, no matter how it is embellished, the essence of territorial expansion is cruel; it is the use of force to seize the living space of others.

Therefore, Dream City has never touted its own righteousness; instead, it has openly displayed its ambition.

In the world of cultivators, some things are indeed not very necessary.

There's nothing we can do; the limits of cultivators are simply too low, to the point that some are in a truly appalling state.

Conversely, the requirements for moral standards are also very low.

After all, few people dare to morally blackmail someone who can easily take their life at any time, and their expectations are extremely low.

In the midst of aggression, to offer a glimmer of hope and fairness is like a god descending to earth.

If we treat them better than we treated the previous forces, then it's not an invasion; it's welcoming the king's army.

This is considered a low moral advantage!

One by one, golden cities surrendered, while others were completely destroyed. The golden-level beings within were either killed or captured alive and sent back to the Dream City as experimental subjects.

The Dream City, which had been building up its strength for a long time, displayed an extremely domineering nature as soon as it made its move.

No matter how tolerant the people of the War King and Thunder King appear on the surface, their essence remains unchanged: they either choose annihilation or submission; there is no third option.

Besides the golden cities, some of the professionals who left the Dream City were also responsible for cleaning up the surrounding area, dealing with various bandits and robbers...

Some chose to build cities, while others were not interested in managing their power and chose to make a living by plundering.

Many of these people are involved in their own career paths.

Plundering, destruction, and slaughter—these career paths are not exclusive to the demons of the abyss; there are also many people in the main world who cultivate the corresponding career systems.

Among the gods, there is even a god of destruction.

The City of Dreams will naturally not let go of these forces that seriously threaten the stability of its territory.

Moreover, unlike those golden cities, these bandit-like forces face only one choice: blatant destruction.

After conquering one golden city after another, the Dream City has no shortage of manpower as long as it digests the spoils. Therefore, there is no need to compromise with these bandits.

The bandits, who had long been entrenched in the wasteland and were difficult to eradicate, finally encountered a devastating blow from the City of Dreams.

Various tracking techniques left these bandits with nowhere to hide, and they even had some special methods.

Although some of these bandits were Gold-level professionals, they were no match for the people from Dream City and had no ability to resist.

Besides these golden cities and unstable factors such as bandits, there were also many ethnic groups gathered in tribal form.

"Wolf King, are you really not considering becoming a real wolf king?"

Outside a village, the wolf king and his men blocked the gate, frowning as they looked at the werewolves living inside.

That's right, besides humans, there are many other races in the wasteland.

The so-called remoteness of the Wilderness is relative to other parts of the main world, but in fact it is extremely prosperous, with a huge number of professionals and various races, almost equivalent to a complete world.

However, due to its location on the main continent, the siphon effect is quite severe, and some talented or powerful professionals will choose to go to more prosperous places.

"Werewolves are also considered part of humanity," the Wolf King said calmly.

When many races become powerful, they choose to expand their ethnic group concept as much as possible, which can also be seen as a form of assimilation of lower civilizations by higher civilizations.

This concept is mostly useless; many people will ruthlessly swindle their own family members, let alone a group based solely on a conceptual framework.

However, powerful forces value this highly because it allows them to expand their sphere of influence as much as possible while reducing conflicts between themselves.

These groups may not be strong enough, but as a race that has survived, they naturally possess their own innate abilities.

Moreover, even the weakest race, once it reproduces, will still have some geniuses who can be absorbed by powerful forces.

It's better to bring him into the same category, as part of the same force, than to make him an enemy.

The wolf king, who possesses wolf blood, was specially sent to subdue this werewolf clan.

"Everyone..."

The Wolf King looked at the ever-growing number of werewolves. A village had gathered more than fifteen gold-level beings, which was indeed a force that could not be ignored.

Without this strength, it would be difficult to live a stable life surrounded by numerous golden cities.

However, quantity does not represent strength, and this time it wasn't just Wolf King who came as a Gold-level expert.

"Who exactly are you? What are you doing here?" the werewolf leader asked warily.

His animal instincts told him that each of these people was more dangerous than the last and could not be easily ignored.
