In the following days, tornadoes, hail, heavy rain, freezing rain, acid rain, thunderstorms, earthquakes, sandstorms...all kinds of natural disasters occurred one after another.

Survival in the territory became increasingly difficult.

During this period of time, the pattern of the Stan continent has undergone tremendous changes.

Human Kingdom.

Village-level territories can no longer survive in the current environment, because they not only have to face the problem of resource scarcity caused by natural disasters, but also the increasingly crazy invasion of monsters.

Therefore, during this period of time, the lords of the village-level territories basically chose to integrate into other territories. There was basically only one result for not integrating into other territories: being conquered.

In the face of powerful threats, no matter how promising a village-level territory is, the result will be the same, like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

Every time this happens, countless Blue Star territories are very glad for their original choice.

At present, the village-level territories of the Blue Star Territory have basically been incorporated into the large territories in their respective areas.

The city of hope in the north.

...

...

A green grassland town in the west.

A small mountain town in the south.

Xidong Town in the east.

Ningshan Town and Wenxia Town in the central part.

After the incorporation of village-level territories, the migration of town-level territories is now underway.

Most of them have already been migrated.

After the merger, the population of Hope City has far exceeded one million, reaching more than three million, and the population of several other small towns has also reached the million level.

Therefore, in order to relieve the pressure and to strengthen itself, in recent days, Hope City is about to welcome a tide of beasts that are promoted from level 1 cities to level 2 cities, and the other small towns are about to welcome a tide of beasts that are promoted from level 3 towns to level 1 cities.

The rise of Blue Star territories such as Hope City has also attracted the attention of countless local territories.

Originally, only Hope City emerged as a rising star.

However, when the crisis came, these new territories were quickly reorganized and integrated.

Although it is still a small town, due to the sudden increase in population, its strength has far exceeded that of a level 1 city.

Yes, although several territories such as Qingqing Grassland Town are still level 3 towns, their territory rankings have surpassed many level 1 cities.

When these data came out, the human kingdom was in an uproar.

Hope City created history, but other territories like it were not far behind, and some even ranked higher than its previous ones.

During this process, it's not that no one had ideas about them, but when they were making their plans, the advancing beast tide in the mountain town gave them a slap in the face.

Because it has been several rounds of special weather, most of the magical elements in the air have disappeared, and at the same time, the brutality of the Warcraft Law.

But under such circumstances, the small mountain town launched a blitzkrieg.

In just half a day, they repelled the tide of beasts that was once as powerful as a city-level territory.

Without using any magic power, they just used the new weapons in their territory to bombard the monsters, which caused them to be defeated directly.

This war raised the reputation of the small mountain town and the reputation of all the new territories.

Many territories just realized that such weapons were not only found in the small town of Dashan, but also in all the new territories, including Hope City.

After learning about such weapons, many territories became really uneasy.

For the moment, they did not dare to act rashly and could only watch the new territories, including Hope City, expand rapidly.

Finally, a part of the territory dragged Count Olcott of the small town of Benguela to get the answer from the City of Hope.

Hope City is willing to sell the non-magical weapons owned by these new territories to other territories.

When this news came out, many territories felt relatively relieved, but their attention was still focused on the promotion of the territory represented by the new territory.

The city of San Sebastian.

This time, Saint Seva convened a meeting again.

The only difference from the last time was that except for the territory supported by Saint Seva, the rest of the territories were not present.

Especially the four major territories.

According to them, in special weather conditions, we need to be prepared for attacks from monsters at all times.

The atmosphere at the scene became a little dull, but no one dared to speak out to break the silence.

The main reason is that because of the special weather and the monster attacks were too fierce and severe, they have suffered a lot these days.

Under such circumstances, survival is extremely difficult, who would still think about fighting for power and profit!

If it weren't for the fact that the city of San Sebastian had really helped them and had blood ties with them, many people really wouldn't want to come.

Saint Seva looked at the quiet atmosphere at the scene and had an idea of ​​his current situation in his mind.

Then, he said directly: "I asked you to come here just to say one thing, the support from the capital will stop, and you will have to walk all the roads in the territories by yourself from now on."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar at the scene.

"Sir, how can this be possible?"

“The situation outside is too difficult right now.”

"Our reserves are insufficient. Without the help of the capital, we..."

Just as everyone was complaining, Saint Seva said calmly: "I have made a decision. If you find it difficult, you can merge your territory into the city of Saint Sebastian, and I will be happy to continue to support you."

As soon as Saint Seva said this, the scene fell silent instantly.

Their territory had been developed with great effort to become a level 2 city, so how could it be incorporated into the city of San Sebastian?

"We can still overcome a little difficulty."

"If you take out your savings, you can still get by."

"Start saving some money now."

These words instantly caused a light sigh to escape from Saint Seva's nose.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became awkward.

"It's time for you to go back and guard your territory." After leaving this sentence, Saint Seva directly tore apart this space supported by magic and sent every lord back.

When Saint Seva appeared again, he was inside the palace.

Staffan is

"how?"

"Hope City has been promoted to a Tier 2 city, and Dashan Town, Qingqing Grassland Town, Xidong Town, and Ningshan Town have all been promoted to Tier 1 cities."

"What's the ranking?"

"Hope City ranks 18th, and the other cities are all in the top 100." As Staffan said this, he felt a little emotional.

Who would have thought that these new territories would suddenly become so powerful after the doomsday crisis.

Up to now, it has become an indispensable presence on the Stan continent.

Hope City, in particular, not only formed an alliance with several other new territories, but also formed an alliance with the Elf Kingdom, the Orc Kingdom, and the Dwarf Kingdom.

In the Stan continent, the reputation of Hope City can be said to have reached a new peak.

But who can deny that Hope City is doing well?

For the human territories, Hope City continuously sells cement to improve the physical defense of each territory. Up to now, the defense bonus of small town-level territories is basically over 400,000, and the defense bonus of city-level territories is over 800,000, which has made great contributions to resisting Warcraft.

There are also various ways to resist the beast tide, such as adding more lines of defense. If one line is not enough, use two. If two lines are not enough, use three. Various means of attack are also added to the defense line, which greatly relieves the pressure in the rear.

Hope City also sent teams out to provide support to other territories. Even though there were interests involved, being able to contribute at this time had already set an example for many territories. Many territories learned from Hope City to help each other, and the relationship between the territories seemed to have been brought closer, especially the phrase "community of shared destiny" in the newspaper, which left a deep impression on everyone's heart.

Hope City has always encouraged stockpiling, developing agriculture, and ensuring food. In the early days, many territories thought that food could be purchased at a low price, but due to natural disasters, food production decreased and resource refreshment within the territory became slow. People then truly realized the significance of stockpiling food.

…

Even now, Hope City is willing to work with the new territories to sell non-magical weapons to other territories, and has promised to gradually release some of the weapon blueprints. This is directly making their own achievements public!!!

Hope City has never kept all this to itself. Would the lords of other territories be unsure about this?

There is a bottom line!

There may still be some ungrateful people, but do they dare to jump out and attack Hope City? No!

It can be said that the doomsday crisis made the City of Hope.

But if there were no doomsday crisis, the development of Hope City would not be inferior to any other territory.

Instead, they should be grateful, because it is because of new territories such as Hope City that their world has the confidence to resist the doomsday crisis.

What he thought was not only his true thoughts, but also the true thoughts of countless residents in the territory.

Even Lord Saint Seva realized it.

That's why they completely gave up the plan of unification this time.

The human kingdom, from the time it was first dispersed, could never be unified again.

If we hold all the good things currently available in Hope City, there might be a slight possibility.

But what about the City of Hope? Holding these things, they were scattered bit by bit.

Things that all territories have no longer have an advantage.

It can be said that the glorious era of the royal capital has passed.

The tide of history can only move forward.

After listening to this, Saint Seva was silent for a moment and then said, "From now on, as the representative of Saint Sebastian City, you will go to Hope City to buy everything needed for the territory! You can use the materials in the warehouse at any time."

"Yes." Staffan said, looking at Saint Seva who had lost a lot of energy and spirit, "Your Majesty, even if you cannot unify the entire human kingdom, Saint Sebastian City is still the undisputed number one under your leadership."

His Majesty still stands high above all the territories.

Saint Seva listened to Staffan's words, looked at Staffan, and said proudly: "Of course, I will lead Saint Sebastian City to the end. If there is only one territory left in this world, it will definitely be Saint Sebastian City."

Staffan looked at Saint Seva like this, with a hint of fanaticism in his eyes.

This is the Majesty he has always followed!

Looking at Staffan like this, Saint Seva suddenly said, "The last time you brought back the news about Hope City, were you disappointed by my reaction?"

Staffan listened and shook his head. "It's just that everyone makes different choices. No matter what choice you make, Your Majesty, I will support you."

"But it was a wrong choice, wasn't it?" Saint Seva said, "Hope City gave me a chance, but because of this choice, Hope City chose to save itself. And now it seems that the new territories of Hope City are doing better than me."

During this period, the disappearance of territories from the leaderboard was the biggest mockery to him.

The strength of a territory or a person has never been measured by how much they possess, but by how much they protect.

These new territories in Hope City have proved through their actions that they can save more people in times of crisis.

If it weren’t for new territories such as Hope City, the future of the Stan continent would be even more unpredictable.

Staffan listened and was about to say something, but Saint Seva waved his hand and asked him to leave.

After Staffan stepped back, a scroll appeared in Saint Seva's hand.

Unfold, it was sent to her by the Elf Queen, a chance of survival left to him by a legendary professional his father had paid with his life for the continent of Stan.

#Wait for the opportunity, someone from another world will come#

The appearance of these eight words made him realize that those predecessors had rarely seen the future of the human kingdom under his planning. They had no hope in him, so they solved it in their own way.

In fact, after they had these eight words, they had never thought of handing them over to him.

Because they understood that if they handed it over to him, he would only suppress the new territories from the other world, and they would not have any chance of replacing themselves.

Only now, only now, will he "give up".

Yes! He lost!

Elf kingdom.

"Hope City has been promoted to a Level 2 city." Julis's face was filled with joy when she reported to the Elf Queen Firdaus.

"As expected." Firdaus responded calmly.

"I wonder if Hope City will be promoted to a Level 3 city?" Julis asked.

"No, the size of the territory now is enough for Hope City to digest for a while, and it is not the time to expand. Most of the magic elements have disappeared, and the resources outside are refreshing slower and slower. I have a feeling that the real war of resistance will begin when the resources outside can no longer be refreshed." Firdaus said, his lips unconsciously pursed.

“Hasn’t Hope City already found the magic circle that absorbs magic power? If we break it, the road to godhood will fail.” Julis said subconsciously.

"The path to god-making can be destroyed, but what about world consciousness?" Firdaus directly pointed out the key point of this doomsday crisis.

Julis was silent.

Yes! The planet they were on was going to destroy them, what could they do?

“Now it all depends on whether the road that Hope City wants to take can be successful.” Julis thought of the non-magical weapons thrown out by Hope City and other new territories.

Technology changes the world.

Perhaps, the "technology" they talk about can really change the decision of world consciousness?

Just then, Bettina came in.

"Your Majesty, Lady Julis, Hope City asked me to deliver something over here!" Bettina said respectfully.

Fildaus and Julis looked at each other, then said to Bettina, "Give it to me."

Soon, several drawings appeared directly in front of Firdaus.

Unfolding them one by one, they turned out to be several weapon drawings.

"I have some more samples here." Bettina said, and took out several weapons.

Firdaus compared them one by one, then he took a long breath, smiling, "These weapons are very suitable for the racial characteristics of our elves. I hope the city has taken the trouble."

Bettina said quickly: "I tried it in Hope City. It was easy to get started and it didn't require any magic power. I just needed to replenish ammunition. However, sufficient ammunition needed to be exchanged for the corresponding ore materials."

"That's enough! New territories like Hope City must have something in their hands so that they won't be bullied." Firdaus understood and supported Hope City's actions.

Even if the elves will not betray them, what about other human territories?

The human heart is unpredictable, Hope City and the others need to build defenses against the territories of humans who are of the same race!

In that case, why not treat everyone equally?

"Yes." Julis and Bettina agreed.

"Announce this and start mass production of these weapons according to the blueprints. Everyone must master this new weapon. The first batch will be mastered by the elders, and the elders will watch over it.

"yes."

The Orc Kingdom, the capital city of Sorenson.

"My lord, all the orcs have been migrated." Janos said excitedly to the Beast King Sorenson.

This means that the city of Sorenson has become the only city in the Orc Kingdom, which is not only a concentration of power, but also a concentration of combat power.

"How is it? No trouble, right?" Sorensen couldn't help but say.

It was also the first time that he placed orcs of all races under one territory.

Fortunately, the resources in the areas where the orcs live are generally not very abundant, so the orcs are willing to give up their territories.

The strength of the Orc Territory depends on the orcs.

"No, according to the method of Hope City, residential buildings belonging to each race were built and arranged in different communities. Neighbors are all races with good relations and conflicts will not easily arise." Yanos said hurriedly.

"Hope City is really friendly. They invited our orcs, paid them wages, and asked them to come back to our territory to buy houses. The money earned by our territory is really something they get for nothing!" Sorensen said with a satisfied look on his face.

Janos listened and paused.

But the orcs also gave Hope City a lot of money by buying weapons, cement, commercial building blueprints, etc.!

But forget it, according to Lucas, this is currency circulation, and everyone can benefit from the process of currency circulation anyway.

"Also, the city of Delisha has just returned all the orcs they captured." Yanos continued, "and also sent some compensation."

"Why are they so obedient?" Sorenson asked in surprise. The city of Delisha was so arrogant before.

"It's probably because our Sorenson City has become the second in the ranking after San Sebastian City." Yanos said with pride, "If we fight in this territory war, we will be able to deal with him without any problems."

"He's sensible, but I hope the city will say that they won't waste time on territory wars. As long as everyone doesn't fight, no one will suffer any losses in the end." Sorensen said directly. If possible, who would want to fight!

How nice it is to be harmonious!

Seeing Sorensen's matter-of-fact look, Janos's mouth twitched unconsciously. In the past, orcs were known to love fighting, and the orc territories were known to love taking advantage of the weak and robbing other territories of their resources.

Only now...it's different.

"The city of Delisha also returned a large number of goblins to the city of Hope, saying that it wanted to make friends with the city of Hope." Janos continued.

"I just hope that the new territories in the city are willing to accommodate the goblins. I think the orcs are definitely more capable than the goblins." Sorenson couldn't help but say.

"Nowadays, many territories need to hire goblins to find minerals for them. Finding minerals is a skill unique to them." As Janos spoke, his expression showed some emotion.

In the past, goblins were mining slaves, but now with the support of Hope City, they are miners. But they are not just miners, they can also be blacksmiths, craftsmen, and professionals.

He also thought that since Hope City treated the goblins like this, they must be kind-hearted human beings.

Sorenson listened and his expression brightened. "Janos, Hope City only wants us to find black stones, but there are also many ores in our orc territory, right? How about going to Hope City to hire some goblins to find ores for us? Then we can sell these ores to Hope City and exchange them for food, weapons, and equipment."

"Okay." Janos agreed immediately. He just had this idea! He didn't expect that after getting the gold coins, his own beast king would use his brain.

Not bad, not bad!

Then he continued, "Sir, I need some money now."

Sorensen's smile froze in an instant.

"How much do you need?" I finally had a little money in my pocket.

"We need to build several auxiliary walls outside Sorensen City, which requires a large amount of stone. We have hired orcs in the territory to collect them, but hiring orcs requires wages. Also, Hope City sent us the blueprints of armored vehicles, so we need to buy some ore to build them. We also need to buy mines, grenades, rocket launchers and other weapons suitable for orcs to use, and..."

"Okay, okay, here you go." Sorenson reluctantly took out a sum of gold coins and gave them to Janos.

Janos checked and found that it was still almost operational. He shouldn't ask for too much at one time. He should wait until the Beast King had some income before withdrawing it!

Looking at Janos's departing back, Sorenson looked at the gold coins in his account and couldn't help but smile.

Hehe, Janos is right. Follow Hope City and you will have meat to eat.

The Dwarf Kingdom, the capital city of Gilt.

"Hope City sent us the blueprints." The subordinates gave all the blueprints given by Hope City to Gilt.

After reading it, Gilt looked a little surprised.

"It seems like these are the weapons that Hope City is keeping secret?"

"I hope the city lord will say that this is their sincerity, and he also hopes that we can make improvements on this basis. If improvements are made, we will also give them a return gift." The subordinate said directly.

Gilt listened and actually understood what Zhou Bai meant.

The dwarves have always been talented in making weapons. Not to mention the blueprints, they can perfectly replicate the weapons of Hope City as long as they have a few passes in their hands.

But with their dwarven pride, they normally wouldn't do that.

But if it involves life, they will also violate principles.

But now, Hope City took the initiative to send the blueprints to them...

Hope City and other new territories should indeed be friends of their dwarven tribe.

"Have people make these weapons, and work hard to increase their power and reduce losses." Gilt gave direct instructions to his subordinates.

"yes."

Anyway, there are many dwarf masters in the territory who are more powerful than him. He should now focus more of his energy on integrating the territory of the entire dwarf kingdom.

Due to the special weather conditions this time, many of the dwarf tribe's small territories were breached.

Fortunately, there is a small teleportation array between the dwarf territories, and with the assistance of various alchemical products and weapons, although the territory was destroyed, at least most of the tribesmen survived.

In such a severe situation, they should learn from human territories, merge weak territories into strong territories to integrate resources and increase the survival probability of territories and tribesmen.

Everything seems fine now, but the real test is still to come!

He would never allow the dwarves to disappear from this world.

Kingdom of the Dead.

Compared with the turmoil in most parts of the Stan continent, the Kingdom of the Undead, which was originally believed to be a land of death, seems like a paradise.

If anyone were here, they would find that the prosperity of the Kingdom of the Undead is no less than that of some small town-level territories on the Stan continent.

Virgil and Tours were walking on the road to the undead commercial town they had built.

"I never thought that the Kingdom of the Dead would have such a prosperous day." Virgil said with emotion.

"It's also because of you." Tours said directly.

Virgil listened and paused, "At first I just thought this was a lucrative market, but I didn't expect..."

Virgil didn't say the rest, but Tours understood.

As undead who have been in Hope City for a long time, they have already known that the abnormalities in the Stan Continent are related to the Kingdom of the Undead.

It can even be said that perhaps the reason why their undead race is trapped here is related to the special circumstances here.

"I believe in Hope City." Tours didn't say much, just this one sentence.

So what about the Kingdom of the Dead? They never felt it was their home.

What they like is a place like Hope City that is full of vitality and has a sense of human life.

Virgil listened to Tours' words and smiled, saying, "All the undead who have been to Hope City will like it there."

In fact, after the emergence of the Immortal Academy in Hope City, they no longer have to worry about the choices of the undead.

Most of the undead will choose the City of Hope.

After they became undead, they have been trapped on a deserted island. They don't want their future to continue to be trapped in the hands of a certain existence.

At this moment, a man had already come up to Virgil and greeted him warmly, "Lord Virgil."

"Thomas? Are you taking a break today?" Virgil also looked at Thomas with a smile.

Previously, Thomas acted as an intermediary and helped Virgil acquire water resources and made a fortune. Later, when the Immortal Academy in Hope City began recruiting students, Thomas couldn't wait to go there, and now he is also a student of the Immortal Academy.

"Well, I'm taking a break today and doing some business." Thomas said with a smile on his face.

He couldn't be happier with his life now.

After he graduates from the Immortal Academy, he will be a member of Hope City and will truly gain freedom.

Most importantly, life in Hope City was great.

He finally understood why the undead like Lord Virgil were never willing to come back after being hired out.

“Do a good job!”

"Yeah." Thomas nodded, but after a moment's hesitation, he still asked, "My friend wants to know when the next Immortal Academy will start recruiting students?"

When the Immortal Academy first started recruiting students, many undead were reluctant to go.

However, with the feedback from the first batch of students returning from Hope City, many undead now hope to enter Hope City, especially since Hope City has hired several legendary necromancers from the Undead Kingdom.

Those legendary necromancers are willing to stay in Hope City. Doesn’t that just prove how good Hope City is?

So now, the undead in the Kingdom of the Dead are waiting for the second enrollment of the City of Hope.

"It should be in the near future! The quantity will be increased." Virgil gave a positive answer.

Special weather conditions occur one after another, and magical elements disappear one after another.

Hope City and Stan Continent should take action before the magic elements completely disappear.

Then it is imperative to transfer the undead.

The undead are indeed moving in large numbers now.

One is Valhalla, and the other is the Immortal Academy.

The time is coming soon.

"Okay, thank you, Lord Virgil, I won't bother you anymore." After Thomas got his answer, he left happily.

And Tours also parted ways with Virgil after reaching the end of the market, saying, "I have to go to other offices. I have a mission to accomplish."

"Yeah." Virgil nodded.

He didn't know what Tours' mission was, but he guessed it.

Especially after those legendary magicians from the Kingdom of the Dead arrived in Hope City, Hope City built some markets in special locations. Could there be something fishy going on?

However, since they were in charge of different things, he would not interfere too much and would not ask too many questions.

Dragon Cave.

"Grandpa, this was sent by Zhou Bai today." After Filia flew back from Hope City, she calmly handed a scroll to her grandfather Su Yaso.

After the special weather, she was detained in the Dragon Cave for a long time, until she couldn't stand it anymore and went to find Zhou Bai, and then she found that Zhou Bai's territory had actually changed from a small town to a city.

She was so excited at that time. She thought that he was indeed her good friend and was so capable.

Zhou Bai was very happy to see her and entertained her warmly. Of course, he also packed some delicious food for her and a letter to her grandfather.

Originally, Filia thought that her grandfather would still keep her under control, but she didn't expect that he would let her serve as a messenger among them for the next few days.

She was quite happy taking care of Zhou Bai. At least she had the chance to play with Zhou Bai every day, eat a lot of delicious food, and have a lot of fun.

In a flash, Filia shared the delicious food with her younger brothers and sisters.

As for Suyaso, after reading the contents of the scroll, he put it away immediately and went to look for other dragons.

When he came back again, he looked much more relaxed than before.

"Father, what happened?" Iskandan knew a little bit of the inside story and couldn't help but ask.

Su Yaso said directly: "The ancestors agreed to cooperate."

Iskandan was shocked. The ancestors all agreed to cooperate. Does this mean that the success rate is quite high?

"I didn't expect that the first human I saw after the prophecy could actually turn the situation around." Suaso's expression was full of emotion. He looked at Filia and snorted, "Fools have good fortune."

Iskandan listened and looked much more relaxed. "A glimmer of hope has finally been grasped. If possible, I hope that my future descendants can fly freely in the sky."

Suaso responded softly.

The dragon race is free. Even if they are willing to become someone else's mount, they must do so willingly, not under duress.

“Oh, it’s so delicious!”

"Sister, please bring more tomorrow. My appetite is getting bigger and bigger now."

"Then give me some gold coins."

"Why?"

"I've given you free food and drink, but you're still so greedy. You want money to buy more!"

"That's not necessary."

"Why are you so stingy!"

"I don't have as many gold coins as my sister."

“…”

The quarreling sounds of the little dragons reached the ears of Suyaso and other dragons, and the corners of their mouths unconsciously rose.

The shadow hanging over the dragon clan was finally dispelled a little.

They look forward to the day when they disappear completely.

*

As the situation becomes increasingly worse, the entire Stan continent has been ready to take action.

Four updates in one! Together with the four updates in the morning, today is already a huge update blast!

Oh, you can probably tell it's coming to an end! I'm reluctant to let it go, but due to certain restrictions, this is the best I can do! Muah!
