I've already reached the maximum level, and you guys are just starting out?

Chapter 145: All forces mobilized from the level 8 city! A middle school student won't stumble upon an invincible powerhouse!
A308 area.

Boom——

The massive sky city roared across the wasteland.

Below, on the ground, the refugees, whether wandering or staying in the city of refuge, looked up at this scene, their eyes filled with envy and longing.

Who in the A308 area doesn't know the Sky City called 'Dawn'?

As they traveled eastward from Dawn City, they were hundreds of thousands of miles away.

A399 area.

A city even larger and more majestic than the present-day Dawn City is also moving at a rapid pace.

boom--

Rumble——!
Level 8 Refuge City, Ghost King City!

Stealth + mobility, two key features!
But at this moment, Ghost King City was clearly not 'hidden' at all; on the contrary, it was extremely ostentatious.

It was like a giant wave on land, crushing everything in its path.

Mutant beast nests, infected nests, wasteland refugee squads...

Even several ordinary level 0 refuge cities were smashed to pieces by the massive Ghost King City.

Tens of thousands of people who sought refuge in the city were crushed into mincemeat before they could even scream.

Only the core of the refuge city, exposed to the elements, emanated waves of energy, slowly repairing the almost non-existent refuge city...

Ghost King City.

City center.

Black mist billowed, filling the magnificent palace like a ghostly hell.

Austin Zorn, expressionless, sat on the throne at the very front.

Behind the throne, four guards stood silently.

They wore mechanical armor that reflected a faint golden light and black masks that exuded a futuristic vibe.

Beneath the mask, a pair of purple eyes were visible.

Below the throne.

All the eighth-tier evolved beings from Ghost King City have arrived.

only……

Despite keeping their heads down, they couldn't help but glance at the four guards behind the throne.

They had never seen these people before.

and……

For some reason, despite being eighth-tier evolved beings, already at the top of the pyramid on this planet, they inexplicably felt an extremely strong threat from these four guards.

It was so intense that it felt as if the other party could easily kill him with a single thought.

Is this right?
It must be a hallucination...

The eighth-tier evolved beings in Ghost King City had an indescribable, strange feeling in their hearts.

Natasha and Ellie stood side by side inside the hall.

They had been back in Ghost King City for a whole day.

Ellie also secretly tried to communicate with Ember immediately, but... she failed.

It wasn't that Zorn discovered her communication, but rather that there was no response from the other end.

Ellie told Natasha about it, and the two of them pondered for a long time but still couldn't figure out what was going on.

Could it be that Yu Jin has suddenly changed his mind about launching a surprise attack on Ghost King City?

Natasha and Ellie couldn't understand it, but they had no other way to contact Ember.

Natasha had originally planned...

Find an opportunity to leave Ghost King City and head to Mang City.

But before she could even leave the city, she was summoned here by Austin Zorn.

at the same time.

The Ghost King City, which had been silent for many years, suddenly began to move at full speed without any warning.

Since being upgraded to a level 8 refuge city, Ghost King City has rarely moved, since no one would be foolish enough to cause trouble for Ghost King City.

Not to mention……

Like right now, moving at full speed, like a whirlwind.

Natasha, Ellie, and the other six eighth-tier evolved beings present were unaware of what had happened.

Despite Austin Zorn's arrogant and flamboyant personality, he showed little respect or courtesy to his subordinates.

but……

Despite the Ghost King City's massive operation, none of the eight high-ranking officials present received prior notice.

Because the Ghost King City moved so suddenly, many citizens were left outside when the city gates closed, and some were even 'crushed to death' by the Ghost King City.

Something must have happened.

"Could it be related to the sudden appearance of these guards?"

Ellie and Natasha exchanged a glance, both seeing the same thought in each other's eyes.

"Everyone——"

Austin Zorn suddenly spoke, his voice low and somber.

"Ghost King City will head west."

"Destination, A337 area, Naya City."

"This process will take about 3-4 days. During this time, I need you to coordinate all the evolved beings in Ghost King City..."

"Prepare for the final battle!"

As soon as Zorn finished speaking, everyone in the palace was stunned.

Apart from Natasha, who had previously gone to Mangcheng, the other seven people knew about the plan to besiege Naya City.

but……

The original plan was to start a month later!

Moreover, it wasn't a decisive battle, just an encirclement!
They all still remember what Zorn said himself.

"At that time, we will surround them without attacking, and try to inflict as many losses as possible on the other level 8 refuge cities..."

"We'll make the final move and clean up the mess..."

decisive battle?

What kind of decisive battle is this?
How did it come to a decisive battle?
"Lord Zorn——"

Below the throne, a tall and robust eighth-tier evolver spoke.

But he had only said half of it.

Om-!
A terrifying gravity suddenly enveloped it.

"what--"

The burly man cried out in pain, his knees buckled, and he was forced to his knees by the force of gravity.

"This is a notification, not a discussion."

Zorn remained expressionless, his tone growing increasingly low and serious.

After a moment of silence, he added:
"Remember, it means mobilizing all evolved beings, not just the evolved being legion."

"Those belonging to Ghost King City, regardless of gender, age, or rank..."

"All evolved beings, including you, join the war!"

"Do you understand?"

……

……

Planet A3.

As Ghost King City moved rapidly westward.

Quel'Thalas, a level 8 refuge city.

Quill Hoffman, the lord of Quill City, led tens of millions of his people out of the city and headed towards the A337 area where Naya City is located.

To save time.

This rank-eight old man, who was known for being stingy and miserly, even spent a fortune of points to purchase a large number of 'one-time long-distance teleportation devices' from the resource shop.

With the help of this item, millions of evolved beings in Quil City were continuously teleported from one area to another...

……

Level 8 refuge city, ten-mile city.

Jevon Hawkins, an eighth-tier city lord, activated the Ten Mile City's special ability, "Earth Escape."

The enormous city of Shili disappeared underground, steadily approaching the A377 area.

period.

The area through which Shili City passed was as if struck by an earthquake, causing widespread riots in the underground mutated beasts and infected lairs, which then attacked nearby refuge cities...

……

Level 8 refuge city, Mengcheng.

Level 8 refuge city, Us City.

Level 8 refuge city, Hero City.

...In just one day.

All the level 8 refuge cities on planet A3 mobilized and moved towards Naya City.

……

……

A331 area.

Laisi City.

This is an ordinary level 0 refuge city.

At the same time, it is also one of the thousands of subordinate cities of Naya City, an 8th-level refuge city.

now.

Inside a slightly dilapidated wooden house on the outer streets of Lacey City.

The boy, covered in dust and dirt, and only fourteen or fifteen years old, stared intently at the young man lying on the wooden bed.

"Boss..."

"How can I wake you up?"

The boy muttered to himself, his youthful face, not yet fully developed, tensing slightly.

His name is Ye Ye, and he comes from Earth.

I was once a junior high school student who loved reading online novels. I was chosen by God to roll the dice and was forcibly transported to this place.

At first, he was very excited.

When his time travels into reality, he thinks he's going to become the protagonist who dominates everything in an online novel.

but……

Ye Ye shouted "Deep Blue," "System," and "Personal Panel" at the air for three whole days...

In short, he used every name he could think of.

Unfortunately, there was no response whatsoever.

Fortunately...

His starting location was near Lacey Refuge.

During the entry registration process in Lacey City, the prosecutor suddenly asked him, "Are you from Earth?"

Without a second thought, the naive Ye Ye replied, "Yes."

then……

He was assigned this house, which could provide shelter from the wind and rain.

You can also receive a certain amount of food and water each day.

even.

The city lord of Laixi City, a petite loli, is actually a powerful fifth-tier evolver. She brought her subordinates to visit Ye Ye.

Ye Ye was extremely excited.

"Turns out I wasn't given the Deep Blue script, but the Loli City Lord's gigolo script!"

Ye Ye's excitement lasted only half a day.

Because half a day later, a new Blue Star player arrived in Laixi City.

His treatment was exactly the same as Ye Ye's: a wooden house, food, and water.

Even the words spoken by that loli city lord when she came to visit were exactly the same.

"On behalf of Lacey City, I welcome you, player from Blue Star!"

Ye Ye was heartbroken.

Time passes little by little.

The number of Blue Star players in Laixi City is increasing.

To date, the journey has been going on for about 20 days.

The total number of Blue Star players in Laixi City has exceeded ten thousand.

What's outrageous is that all 10,000 people enjoyed the same benefits as Ye Ye.

On the outer city street where Ye Ye lived...

This entire street is inhabited by fellow citizens of Earth.

Sometimes when Ye Ye goes out and sees the familiar faces and warm local accents of his neighbors, he even has a dazed feeling of 'did I actually time travel?'

It is worth mentioning that--

The generous benefits and perks offered to Blue Star players once sparked discontent among the original inhabitants of Laixi City.

They launched several protests, and even gathered outside the city where the Lord of Lacey could not see, to bully Blue Star players.

This also led to...

Blue Star players, who don't need to mine or work in the first place, are even less willing to leave the city. Instead, they stay in the city, receiving basic welfare benefits such as food and water, and just wait to die.

“Is that right?”

"This is wrong!"

Ye Ye despised this behavior.

Therefore, he would leave the city alone every day to dig out polluted crystals in the relatively safe buffer zone.

Pollution crystals are a precious resource that allows ordinary people to access the extraordinary.

Polluted crystals are also the hard currency of Lacey City and even the entire wasteland.

Ye Ye was lucky. He went out early and returned late every day and could usually dig up a piece. When he was lucky, he could even dig up two pieces.

He planned to save up 30 coins and then exchange them for a Tier 1 crystal at the Lord of Laixi City.

While contaminated crystals can be used for awakening, they can easily lead to sudden death.

In comparison, first-order crystallization is much safer.

It is said that second-order crystals can guarantee a 100% success rate in awakening, but such precious resources only exist in Ye Ye's dreams every night.

three days ago.

As is customary, Ye Ye went outside the city to dig up the polluted crystals.

Unfortunately, he was targeted by a group of native residents of Lacey City.

The other side had a large number of people and had been eyeing Ye Ye, this fat sheep, for a long time.

After stealing the piece of polluted crystal that Ye Ye had dug up that day, they were still not satisfied and demanded that he offer up all the polluted crystals he had accumulated over the years.

Ye Ye naturally refused. He hadn't brought that part of the crystal with him; instead, he had hidden it in the cracks of the bed in the thatched hut.

then……

Ye Ye was then given a severe beating.

Perhaps venting all their resentment towards the Blue Star players on Ye Ye, the group attacked him very heavily, and Ye Ye felt like he was about to be beaten to death.

But at that very moment...

A 'boom' sound.

A figure fell from the sky.

Ye Ye watched as the figure appeared out of thin air and fell down.

The sudden appearance of the figure startled the group of thugs, but the audacious thugs even attacked the unconscious young man lying on the ground.

Because they recognized that this suddenly appearing young man, like Ye Ye, had a face from Earth.

then……

There was a 'bang' sound.

Ye Ye witnessed firsthand that before the thugs could even land their punches and kicks on the young man, he was blown into a bloody mist.

That scene was so shocking, so terrifying, that...

Ye Ye was so scared that he wet his pants.

"Big guy!"

Ye Ye, his crotch still wet, immediately knelt before the unconscious young man on the ground.

But the latter kept his eyes closed and did not respond.

After hesitating for a moment, Ye Ye carried the young man back to Laixi City and settled him in his house.

For three days, he took meticulous care of the patient, feeding and watering him, and didn't even leave the city to mine again.

His years of experience writing online novels told him that this was definitely a big shot, a super big shot.

Just like Xiao Yan's personal grandfather, this might be the real opportunity for him to travel to the wasteland.

only……

"How exactly can we wake you up, sir?"

Ye Ye stared at the young man on the bed with his right arm missing and his eyes closed, his expression conflicted.

His youthful face was all scrunched up.

And just then.

dong dong——!
Suddenly, a series of muffled knocks sounded outside the wooden house.

"Ye Ye!"

"Your business has taken off!"
