Realized Game: I Hoarded 10 Billion Defense Towers

”Holy shit! It even gives experience points!”

In Qing City, everyone was shouting in shock because all the Neutral Cities had just been upgraded into large-scale cities. And Shen Fei, the ”culprit” behind it all, was shouting too!

But Shen Fei hadn’t been shouting when the nine Neutral Cities in Qing City all transformed into large-scale ones. He was shouting about the effect of the Energy Crystals, which he had used after the City Energy.

Shen Fei had never expected that the most unassuming items he obtained from destroying countless Neutral Cities—the Energy Crystals—would, when used, actually increase his experience points in addition to their primary function. Moreover, when he used them to charge various items, including Divine Artifacts, the bonus experience they provided was absolutely immense.

Right now, Shen Fei, who was level 193, had managed to hit level 194 after using just one percent of his Energy Crystals. This outcome left him completely dumbfounded.

Granted, his experience bar at level 193 was already quite full from his earlier endeavors. However, his level was so high that the experience required to level up was astronomical. More importantly, the number of Energy Crystals he had on hand was also enormous, which meant the potential experience he could absorb was equally immense. This prospect made Shen Fei eagerly anticipate reaching level 200.

For Shen Fei, his starting level had been 100 after his Experience Bar was activated. He would unlock something new every 10 levels he gained, and hitting the level 150 ”milestone” in particular had brought a massive boost. Shen Fei knew that the level 200 ”milestone” was an even more critical threshold. Reaching it would undoubtedly bring massive rewards.

Originally, he had planned to either slaughter the monster tide during the fifth Game Ability Inheritance or leave the tide to others and head straight for the Pacific Ocean region to grind for experience. But he never imagined that even before the fifth Game Ability Inheritance, and before he even had a chance to think about leveling, his experience would start shooting up while he was just charging his various items. And the amount of bonus overflow experience was just so massive.

In his shock, Shen Fei’s experience bar filled up in an instant. Astonished, he glanced at the smiling Number 0 and the docile Tang San beside him as another bright light flashed from his body.

DING!

[Divine Artifact Energy +100!]

DING!

[Energy Overflow. Experience +1,000,000,000!]

.

DING!

[Level +1!]

.

DING!

[Level +1]

DING!

[Level increased to 198...]

.

As Shen Fei numbly used one Energy Crystal after another, his level continued to rise at a rapid pace. Leveling up like this was much faster than even grinding monsters himself. He had always thought that the higher his level, the harder it would be to advance. He never imagined that he would gain the last few levels before 200 under these circumstances.

In that case, I have to keep destroying these Neutral Cities! I never expected the Energy Crystals they drop to be so invincible...

As he continued to use the remaining Energy Crystals, Shen Fei couldn’t help but ponder. Originally, he had destroyed the Neutral Cities to uncover the ultimate goal of the NPCs and Super Bosses. But now he realized that after destroying them, everything he obtained—whether it was the Heart of the City, the City Energy, or even the Energy Crystals he had previously looked down on—was an incredibly important resource.

The Hearts of the City would allow him to continue building one Neutral City after another on Great Xia’s territory. The City Energy could be used for rapid replenishment; at this moment, Qing City’s Long-range Teleportation energy reserves were so full they were about to overflow. They could almost use the Teleportation Array to travel to other cities without any restrictions. And now, the last item, the Energy Crystals, was also demonstrating its tremendous utility.

Shen Fei hadn’t expected any of this. As he used the crystals and watched his level rapidly increase, his thoughts involuntarily ”invaded” the special regions once again.

So far on Blue Star, the special regions he had destroyed were only the ones on Great Xia’s soil. The vast numbers of special regions in the territories of other nations still existed, and there were at least five or six times more of them than in Great Xia. And that wasn’t even counting the Pacific Ocean special region—the largest in area, the most numerous, and the most unique.

The bonus experience from a single Energy Crystal sent Shen Fei’s mind soaring. He even began to fantasize.

If I destroy all the Neutral Cities on Blue Star, the bonus experience from the Energy Crystals I get might even be enough to push my level straight to 300...

Shen Fei knew that at this moment, the average level across all of Blue Star was only about 105. Even the Intelligent NPCs and Super Bosses, who were stronger than human players, only had an average level of 110 at most after the Version 4.7 update. And here he was, about to hit level 200. Furthermore, in the foreseeable future, he could potentially reach level 300 quickly even without grinding any more monsters.

As he continued using the Energy Crystals to charge his gear and level up, he had another thought. I have to go to the Pacific Ocean special region! And now I have another reason to go exploring in other nations!

Meanwhile, communication between the various nations on the Forum had been severed.
