Venus.
The wasteland lands, central Northern Hemisphere.
Morgan City, a Level 9 Shelter City, sat here.
As the top Promoter on the A-9 Wasteland Planet, City Lord Morgan Riman was the only Tier Nine Evolver before the planet’s promotion.
But now?
This Tier Nine City Lord stood within Morgan City, looking up at the colossal fortress drawing closer and closer overhead, only to feel like he could barely breathe!
He was Tier Nine, the very pinnacle of the Star System Wasteland.
But...
Right this mont.
Faced with that Sky City, he just felt like an ant!
He sensed—
In that city, there were dozens of auras that could easily kill him!
"M-Master Morgan!"
"What’s going on?"
"..."
The tens of millions of subordinates in Morgan City were in total chaos.
Monts before.
They had just learned the ga rules of the Star System Wasteland and so basic knowledge from their City Lord.
But in the blink of an eye,
why did it feel like their Morgan City was about to be squashed flat by that sky fortress?
BOOM—
BOOOOM—!
The sky fortress rumbled again and again, unhurried, slowly descending from above the clouds.
Its shadow nearly covered a ten-thousand-mile area all around.
And as luck would have it,
Morgan City was right at the heart of this shadow, directly below the fortress.
At this mont, Morgan City was shrouded completely in darkness.
Evolvers everywhere were strung tight, poised as if facing a great enemy.
"Don’t tell ..."
"High-level Players from the Star System Wasteland have co to bully us newbies?"
"That can’t be it!"
"I thought there were newbie protection rules..."
Morgan Riman stood at the front of the City Lord’s Mansion, which looked like a small palace, staring at the ever-approaching Sky City, feeling the increasingly overwhelming pressure, his brow knotted into a deep furrow.
BOOOOM—!
Finally.
After another deafening boom,
the Sky City ceased its descent.
It hovered above Morgan City, about three thousand ters high.
That height...
For a High-tier Evolver, it was practically within reach.
Whoosh—
Whoosh whoosh—!
All eyes in Morgan City turned skyward.
From within the fortress, figures shot out in the air.
"Wait..."
"Is that...over a hundred million people?"
"Are they all Evolvers?"
Ever since breaking through to Tier Nine, Morgan had not felt shock after shock like this in ages, until he was nearly numb.
And then—
He watched as those hundreds of millions of Evolvers ford twenty-so orderly teams.
Each team still consisted of nearly five million Evolvers.
And every team was led by an Evolver whose aura was terrifyingly powerful.
Whoosh—!
The sound of wind being split.
One squad, no, one army, headed straight from the fortress toward Morgan City below.
"Not good..."
Morgan Riman was internally sounding every alarm.
His instincts told him—this was going to be bad!
But...
He couldn’t run!
His Morgan City was right here.
If he abandoned his Refuge City, then even if he survived, it would all be aningless...
Morgan hesitated for a mont.
But nearly five million figures were already standing in the skies high above Morgan City.
They lood like celestial soldiers, gazing down at the whole city.
The army’s leader—a young man, shockingly young in appearance.
"Oi!"
"Who’s in charge here?"
The youth was a bit casual, standing high in the air above Morgan City, shouting out.
As his voice faded—
Shhh shhh—
Before the City Lord’s Mansion,
countless eyes turned toward Morgan Riman, who was about to shield everyone behind him.
"..."
The Tier Nine City Lord’s face was black as thunder.
He braced himself and floated up to just short of the young man.
"S-sir!"
Morgan didn’t hesitate for a mont; he addressed the youth with utmost deference.
Simply because—
The young man was making no effort whatsoever to hide his aura now.
The tier of that aura...
Morgan had no idea what it was exactly, but it was definitely beyond Tier Nine—no, far beyond Tier Nine!
His instincts scread—
This person could flatten him, over and over, with just a single finger!
Crackle—!
Suddenly, electric current crackled in the void.
A flash of raw electric energy...
made Morgan and the tens of millions in the city alike tremble violently.
"Haha!"
The young man was none other than Chen Gang from Dawn City.
Now he was also the leader of the 05th Legion.
In the past day—
Dawn City had been unable to leave due to its promotion to a micro-Refuge Fortress.
But now?
Assigned by Yu Jin to conquer and claim this Venus, he finally had a chance to "show off"!
Morgan hadn’t misjudged—Chen Gang’s current tier was at the extre of Tier Eleven!
His Value, already pushing ten million.
While Morgan, just new to Tier Nine, barely had a value above a hundred thousand.
"I am the commander of Dawn Fortress’s 05th Legion, Chen Gang!"
"By order of the Fortress Lord—"
"I’ve co to conquer your..."
"What’s the na of this city?"
Chen Gang strutted as he spoke, only then realizing he didn’t even know the na of the city, so he stopped and looked at Morgan.
"M-Morgan City!"
Morgan’s heart sank to rock bottom, but he could only grit his teeth and answer.
"Alright, Morgan City."
"You’re the City Lord, correct?"
"You should be grateful—the Lord is rciful and doesn’t wish for mass slaughter, so..."
"You have a choice right now."
"First: Submit!"
"Second: Still submit!"
"For or against?"
As these last words fell—
Crackle—!
Chen Gang spread his hands open.
In the void, terrifying electric currents surged.
In that instant—
The hair of every one of Morgan City’s ten million people stood on end from the electricity!
And Tier Nine City Lord Morgan, specially targeted by Chen Gang, was paralyzed by the current, his body twitching uncontrollably.
Even if the plan was to conquer peacefully, a little show of force was still necessary.
