[Materials needed to repair the currently damaged building: 206 wood, 233 stone, 189 clay... Continue?]
...
They casually threw in a batch of materials to repair the damaged parts of the maze.
Su Bai once again left the territory and arrived in front of a void vortex.
Hurricane Curse!
Ugh!
A fierce whirlwind swept up in front of the massive teleportation portal.
-10! -10! -10! ...
Damage has increased.
It should be said that the Void Vortex has become weaker, but it is still far inferior to its sky-high health.
"We'll need to let the monsters spawn at least two more waves before we can actually damage them."
He weighed the options in his mind.
wait.
During his rest time, he was also working against the clock to repair the territory's defensive fortifications.
During this process, an expected message arrived.
'The territory of the Glorious Dynasty has been bombed.'
A post with this title suddenly appeared on the forum's trending topics.
Upon clicking through, the post contained little to no text, only a few high-resolution screenshots and a short video.
The screenshots showed a terrifying scene of darkness and impending doom, with dark clouds forming a black skull face that occupied most of the sky. Beneath this terrifying skull cloud, a densely populated village could be vaguely seen.
Next picture.
Countless dazzling, blood-red 'meteors' fell from the skull cloud.
"Is this the monster siege we had to deal with after using the 'Cursed City Building Order'?"
Su Bai glanced at the several enormous, chilling void vortexes in the distance, then compared them with the apocalyptic scene in the picture that resembled a demonic summoning ritual, and couldn't help but click his tongue.
He then clicked on the short video.
In the video, the howling wind and the camera shaking due to the intense action of the protagonist make the dark skull cloud feel even more oppressive.
In the dim sky, crimson meteors streaked down, igniting hellfire across the territory.
The residents fled in wailing.
A few combat units, under command, attempted to resist.
But then, fire rained down from the sky, the earth's veins trembled, and a terrifying crack a thousand meters long tore the entire territory in two. Crimson magma surged out from it, accompanied by countless ferocious and terrifying lava demons. A huge hand, a hundred meters wide, emerged from the lava and smashed half of the territory to pieces!
The video is constantly filled with a man's exclamations of "Holy shit!" and "Fuck!"
Everything came to an abrupt end at that moment.
The screen went black.
This video, which is only a few dozen seconds long, has finished playing.
Further down, it's all discussions among netizens.
"Thank you so much for the generous gift! Has this guy been cursed by the heavens?!"
"This is the territory of the Glorious Dynasty? Serves them right! That God Emperor was always showing off, he's finally getting his comeuppance!"
"How could this happen out of nowhere?"
"According to unreliable rumors, it's because the Radiant Dynasty used the city-building token that they bought from the Rainbow Pavilion! That city-building token with a cursed effect!"
"They're trying to take over the first town-level territory in the entire server?!"
"It's a pity we failed, otherwise we would definitely be remembered in history."
"To be remembered in history? More like a collection of absurd jokes! This tycoon is truly a tycoon, he's really rich, spending five million to let everyone watch fireworks! Hahaha!!"
"..."
The reputation of the Glorious Dynasty among ordinary players is not good.
—Or rather, all large guilds are like this. In order to develop their own resources, they inevitably exclude other players and often engage in behaviors that infuriate solo players, such as "monopolizing" the entire area.
Therefore, as soon as they have bad luck, many people gloat.
This news quickly reached the ears of the well-informed Shen Wansan, who keenly realized that this was a golden opportunity to discredit Rainbow Pavilion.
Instantly.
All sorts of people, each trying to set the pace, joined the fray.
Soon, the main reason for the failure of the Yaoshi Dynasty's city construction was linked to the Rainbow Pavilion's sale of counterfeit and shoddy goods.
As expected.
The Glory Dynasty will certainly not swallow this insult.
Accountability is inevitable.
Rainbow Pavilion's reputation, which had just been built up yesterday, quickly turned into a bad reputation after all the commotion...
Although these things haven't actually happened yet, and Su Bai hasn't witnessed them firsthand, he can deduce them based on common sense.
He ignored these business disputes.
Instead, he was thinking.
If he were facing a siege by monsters of the magnitude shown in the video, what would be his chances of successfully defending the city?
"I might die a little slower."
He immediately came to a conclusion.
With a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth, Su Bai muttered to himself, "The most terrifying thing is not how strong the monsters attacking the city are, but natural disasters."
Just like the scene shown in the video.
No matter how many monsters there are or how strong they are, as long as the people of the Radiant Dynasty have some time to react, they can still build up a force to resist.
What truly destroyed their territory's defense system was that terrifying ley line.
If it were him...
This crack could completely destroy his meticulously crafted maze system.
No matter how high his defensive towers' output is, they won't be able to withstand the monsters rushing in from all directions.
Such exaggerated power is definitely not something a monster could control.
It is the true power of natural disaster.
In other words, this isn't about upgrading territory at all.
Instead, they are undergoing tribulation amidst divine retribution!
After a moment of reflection, Su Bai looked at the several void vortexes before him and even found them somewhat endearing...
