Seeing Jiang Chen still indifferent, An Chuxia tentatively asked, "Could it be... you've decided to give up resisting?"
"Well, giving up resistance would only mean losing some resources and buildings. We gentlemen can wait ten years for revenge! Once I upgrade to Tier 3 and seize the position of Town Mayor, I'll gain the permission for the Anywhere Door, and no one will dare to bully you then!"
It's like the emperor isn't anxious, but the eunuch is.
However, seeing An Chuxia speaking so cautiously, afraid of hurting his pride, Jiang Chen felt a warmth in his heart.
"Time to reveal the truth. I've got Legendary Heroes and Legendary Units all around me! In my eyes, Li Muze is just a fool asking for trouble."
Not that she'd believe him anyway.
An Chuxia rolled her eyes at Jiang Chen, "Legendary Units? You're still bragging at a time like this!"
Jiang Chen was helpless. He was telling the truth, but no one believed him.
"Fine, don't believe it if you don't want to!"
The dragons were out hunting, but luckily he had just recruited some centaurs.
Jiang Chen switched the camera to the front view, "See? These are my Centaur Warriors! Even without Legendary Units, I can easily wipe out Li Muze."
An Chuxia's eyes lit up, "These Centaur Warriors should be Rare Units, right? Judging by their size, they must be level 5. Did your Rare Treasure Chest yield a Troop Token?"
Jiang Chen shrugged, "If you say so!"
An Chuxia breathed a sigh of relief, "With the advantage of defending the city, you might still have a fighting chance."
After a few words of advice, An Chuxia sensibly ended the video call.
Jiang Chen quickly calculated the energy needed for an upgrade.
"Upgrade!"
A series of golden lights flashed, and all the Centaur Warriors instantly leveled up to 6, their size growing even larger.
Their combat power reached a terrifying 30 stars, comparable to level 10 Rare Units.
Jiang Chen nodded in satisfaction, "This squad of centaurs alone should be more than enough to deal with Li Muze!"
Soon enough, Jiang Chen found Li Muze's live stream on the Regional Channel.
In the live stream, Li Muze held a treasured sword, clad in silver armor, looking full of spirit and arrogance.
Behind him stood a Beast Race hero, a squad of Human Race Marksmen, and a squad of Trolls, all appearing to be Rare Units.
The live stream was bustling with activity.
As the first battle between lords in the Novice Town, even though the strength disparity was huge, it still attracted the attention of most lords.
There were already over eight hundred people in the live stream.
Wei Ming: "There's no need to push a man too far, but... I do kind of want to watch the live stream."
Lin Mo: "Heh, the rules of the Battlefield of Myriad Races are like this. If Jiang Chen is afraid of dying, he shouldn't participate. But Li, you've got guts. I bid 30,000 Spirit Stones for that Crusade Token, thinking it was a sure thing, but I didn't expect you to be even more ruthless."
Li Muze saw the comments in the live stream and clasped his hands together, "Brothers, you can see, my Marksmen and Trolls have already reached level 5!"
"Today's stream will be about defeating Jiang Chen. If you enjoy it, I hope for some tips, and I'll be eternally grateful!"
[Lord Jiang Chen tipped 1 Spirit Stone]
The tip information made Li Muze pause, then he sneered, "Thinking of currying favor with me now? It's too late!"
Ying Yinman: "Currying favor? I feel like Jiang Chen is mocking you!"
Li Muze's expression turned grim.
Just then, a portal suddenly appeared beside Li Muze.
Li Muze calmly spoke to the camera, "I'm here, Jiang Chen. Feel the fear!"
...
The live stream blurred for a moment.
When it cleared again, they were already a hundred meters outside Jiang Chen's territory.
Li Muze looked at the territory before him and sneered, "Everyone look, Jiang Chen hasn't even upgraded his fences. It's completely unchallenging!"
But just as he finished speaking.
Whoosh—whoosh—
Two crossbow bolts flew one after the other, reaching him in the blink of an eye.
Thud—thud—
A Human Race Marksman, caught off guard, was pinned to the ground, clearly not going to survive.
Li Muze's eyes widened in disbelief, and it took him a full three seconds to react, screaming, "Ah! My Marksman!!"
Normally, a Human Race territory would need to be Tier 4 to recruit Elite Swordsmen, and Tier 7 for Rare Heavy Cavalry.
Losing a Rare Unit would make him heartache for days.
"Damn Jiang Chen!"
"Now no one can save you, not the An Family, not the military!"
"Dare to kill my units, I'll make you kneel and repent before me!"
Thud—thud—
Two more crossbow bolts shot out, killing another Marksman.
"What the hell, what's this firing speed?"
Li Muze finally snapped out of his rage, shouting as he hid behind the Trolls, "What kind of Arrow Tower is this, with such power!"
The live stream was in an uproar.
"Jiang Chen actually has an Arrow Tower? Why is he so lucky!"
"Lucky? Arrow Towers need Refined Iron. Even if you had the blueprint, you couldn't build it!"
"Isn't that still luck?"
"But, isn't the Arrow Tower's range 80 meters? The distance between them is at least 100 meters now!"
Those who knew the value naturally recognized it.
Wei Ming: "Firing two arrows simultaneously, with a range over a hundred meters, and power that instantly kills Rare Archers! Could this be a Volley Arrow Tower? That's a Rare defensive building!!"
Mu Qingshuang: "That's the only explanation."
The happiest of all was An Chuxia.
She never expected that Jiang Chen not only had "Rare Units" but also the powerful Volley Arrow Tower.
An Chuxia: "Li Muze, continuing this will only lead to mutual destruction. You still have time to retreat now."
Li Muze already felt a twinge of regret.
Even if he plundered enough Refined Iron, it couldn't compensate for the loss of two Rare Units.
But he was already riding a tiger he couldn't dismount.
The Crusade Token had cost him nearly 50,000 Spirit Stones!
If he left with two corpses and retreated in disgrace, wouldn't he become the biggest fool in Town 10086?
"As long as I destroy Jiang Chen's territory and plunder enough Refined Iron, I can be the first to upgrade to Tier 2, and maybe receive the Heavenly Dao reward of an Exceptional Treasure Chest!"
Thinking of this, Li Muze shouted like a gambler, "Troll Warriors, cover the Marksmen, break through the fence, destroy the Arrow Tower!"
Unfortunately.
He didn't need to break through the fence.
Jiang Chen's territory suddenly opened its gates.
A squad of robust centaurs charged out from within.
Li Muze was both shocked and delighted, "Haha, great, great, daring to come out of the city?"
"You'll pay for your arrogance!"
Suddenly.
Jiang Chen's voice came from the territory ahead, "Volley Arrows, four to one, focus fire!"
