Realized Game: I Hoarded 10 Billion Defense Towers

From south to north! I’ve cleared 129 special regions, my level has risen to 193, and I’ve built 119 Neutral Cities. For 13 of those, I even bought Teleportation Array Building Stones from the Ninth Time to build Teleportation Arrays...

With about a day left until the fifth inheritance of game abilities, Shen Fei stood on the walls of Ye City in Songhai, reflecting on the grand spectacle of the past five days. He had ”toured” across Great Xia, clearing special regions and building Neutral Cities.

Thanks to his actions, the number of Neutral Cities within Great Xia’s borders had shot up to 150. This number accounted for more than half of all the Neutral Cities occupied by human players on the entire Blue Star. With so many cities and their surrounding safe zones, nearly 99% of the players in Great Xia were now under the protection of a Neutral City.

At this point, guarded by 150 Neutral Cities, Great Xia’s security was completely assured. Moreover, the 119 Neutral Cities that Shen Fei subsequently built—over which he had supreme authority—had no Monster Nests nearby. This meant there was no need to defend against monster tides.

Instead, because the special regions had been cleared, the Secret Realms that were originally hidden inside them were all revealed. All sorts of new and wondrous Secret Realms now existed near these newly built cities. This allowed players who had just joined the Neutral Cities to quickly obtain a wide variety of items and grow stronger by exploring the Secret Realms.

Thanks to Shen Fei’s actions over the past five days, the players of Great Xia as a whole had seen immense improvements in both their security and their opportunities for self-development.

Additionally, because of the Teleportation Array building items purchased from the Ninth World, the new Neutral Cities were well-connected. While not all of them had a Teleportation Array, they were still evenly distributed across the major regions, ensuring every Neutral City had a way to connect with the outside world. As time went on, more and more Teleportation Arrays were being built. The Tourism Management Office headquarters even began compiling information on drops from various Secret Realms and deliberately sent personnel into the ones that could yield Teleportation Array building items. Shen Fei believed that, with time, every Neutral City within Great Xia would eventually establish its own Teleportation Array.

470,000 City Energy...

After contemplating the Neutral Cities he had built, Shen Fei turned his attention to his gains: a total of 470,000 City Energy. For any single Neutral City, City Energy was typically measured in single digits. Yet right now, Shen Fei held a staggering 470,000. He believed that once he found the time to inject this energy into Qing City’s various Neutral Cities, they would undoubtedly unleash even more extraordinary abilities.

Hearts of the City... 230 left!

His gaze swept over the remaining Hearts of the City from his construction spree, and another thought stirred in his mind. This number was only enough to build four small cities, but it was more than enough to upgrade all of Qing City’s Neutral Cities to large cities. This was something Shen Fei had specifically saved for Qing City. Although he had the highest authority over all the newly built Neutral Cities, and the city administrators assigned by the various regional Tourism Management Offices still needed him to grant them management permissions, Shen Fei still felt that Qing City’s were the ones that most deserved to be upgraded. After all, they were the first cities he had ever owned.

And the Energy Crystals! All the miscellaneous items! The various topographical maps from the former Secret Realms...

Having reviewed the main gains in his inventory, Shen Fei turned his attention to the miscellaneous items he had acquired. They were so numerous that they had previously filled his inventory to the brim, forcing him to trade them all to Sun Yu through the Ninth World for him to handle. He hadn’t expected that the special trade space he had set up between them, originally intended for passing information, would end up becoming the primary channel for him to pass miscellaneous items to Sun Yu.

Speak of the devil. Just as Shen Fei was thinking about the items he’d given Yu, he was contacted by Sun Yu.

”Bro! The Tourism Management Office headquarters says they’ll pay 6% annual interest on the money they owe us. What do you think?”

”Yeah, that’s fine,” Shen Fei smiled faintly and agreed without a second thought.

A short while ago, the Tourism Management Office didn’t have enough money to purchase the Teleportation Array building items from the Ninth World. For this reason, they had specifically asked to borrow 10 billion from Shen Fei. Having already accumulated tens of billions of Credit Points by collecting taxes through the Ninth World, Shen Fei had lent them the money without hesitation. He had carried out this transaction through Sun Yu and was now receiving his feedback.

”Bro!” Sun Yu spoke again after finishing his main report. ”Uhm... what’s next?”

Five days ago, his big brother had given him many tasks. To that end, he had even built and tested a private communication channel for the two of them in the Ninth World. But what Sun Yu hadn’t expected was that all of his big brother’s careful preparations ended up being completely unnecessary. Moreover, his brother had gone on to build over a hundred Neutral Cities in every corner of Great Xia. Right now, on the Forums, all the discussions were about his big brother, Shen Fei, building Neutral Cities.
