Towering Orkish structures stood in the center of the territory.
Thick logs were stacked crosswise, forming the outer walls, which were covered in spikes.
Giant beast bones were nailed to the tops of the buildings.
Roar!
A muffled roar sounded.
The heavy wooden door was pushed open.
A figure nearly three meters tall walked out.
Its thick arms were almost wider than a regular person’s waist.
It had dark green skin, with fangs protruding upward from the corners of its mouth.
In its hand, it carried a huge double-edged battleaxe.
[Savage Ork]
The young man looked at the unit he had just recruited, and he could not suppress the smile on his face.
“Hahahaha!”
“Awesome!”
He raised his longsword high.
“With this barracks!”
“Sooner or later, I will trample and destroy all my enemies!”
Zane.
Before the server launched, he had prepared a large amount of credit points.
His initial barracks were not bad.
He had also spent a large sum at the Auction House to obtain the blueprint for an Ork barracks.
Now, there were already two military buildings in his territory.
An Elf barracks.
An Ork barracks.
Meat shield.
Archers.
A complete lineup!
“The Savage Orks will tank at the very front.”
“The Elf archers will stay in the back and rain arrows on the enemy.”
“We’ll get some cavalry later.”
“With this lineup, won’t it be an easy slaughter?”
“Hahahahaha!”
Several Elf archers stood nearby.
They had light golden hair, and their upper bodies were covered in green chainmail.
Longbows were slung across their backs.
The more Zane looked at them, the more he liked them.
Galaxy was simply too realistic.
Even the skin of these NPCs looked just like that of real people.
He walked toward one of the female Elves.
Reaching out, he put his arm around her shoulder.
“Come.”
“Give me a kiss, babe!”
Just as he leaned toward her face—
Boom!
A heaven-shaking explosion suddenly erupted from the other side of the territory!
Zane trembled all over.
The female Elf instantly broke free from his arm.
All the soldiers turned their heads simultaneously.
Not far away, the gold mine that was currently being mined was blasted apart, sending a large amount of soil flying into the air.
The four peasants did not even have time to scream.
Their bodies were torn to pieces!
“What the fuck!”
Zane’s eyes widened.
“Enemy attack?”
Outside the territory, Leo’s face turned completely dark.
He kicked the nearby Grenadier right in the butt.
Bang!
The Grenadier tumbled forward.
“All of you, fucking pay attention!”
“Who told you to blow up the buildings?”
Leo pointed toward the distant Ork barracks.
“Those are all mine!”
“What if you damage them?!”
The Grenadier immediately climbed back up.
“Yes!”
Leo no longer had time to bother with him.
His gaze fell on the Savage Ork walking out of the barracks.
Savage Ork!
Noble warriors among the Orks.
Their physique, strength, and combat talent were all far superior to those of regular Orks.
A regular Ork barracks could never produce a Tier One unit like this!
The grade of this Ork barracks was definitely not low!
Leo’s eyes lit up.
An Ork barracks.
An Elf barracks.
And a gold mine building.
How could this be just any neighbor?
This was clearly a treasure delivered right to his doorstep!
“Charge!”
“Get them!”
Five hundred Armageddon Steel Legion soldiers instantly scattered.
There was no Political Commissar.
There was no Yarrick.
Leo ran at the very front of the formation.
At this moment, the morale of the entire army was frighteningly high.
Even the lord was charging.
Who would dare to be slow?
“Kill!”
Crimson lasers suddenly lit up!
Around the outer perimeter of Zane’s territory, more than thirty Elf archers were scattered around, patrolling the edges.
Their longbows had not even been fully drawn.
Hum!
The first round of lasers had already swept across them.
Pfft!
A charred hole instantly appeared in the chest of an Elf archer.
Then another.
And another.
One after another, they fell to the ground.
“What is this thing?”
Zane was completely dumbfounded.
Pop!
The head of the female Elf who had just been standing beside him suddenly exploded.
Her body slumped softly to the ground.
The remaining Elf archers hurriedly counterattacked.
Arrows flew through the air.
What they faced, however, was an army of five hundred Steel Legion soldiers!
The twenty Grenadiers had learned their lesson this time.
Their muzzles carefully avoided the buildings.
Instead, they fired at densely populated areas.
Boom!
Large waves of fire erupted.
Several Orks had just rushed out of the barracks when they were directly knocked to the ground.
The Savage Ork let out an angry roar.
Carrying its giant axe, it charged toward Leo.
“Protect the Lord Commander!”
Dozens of Voss-pattern Lasguns instantly shifted direction.
Hum!
Charred wounds appeared across the Savage Ork’s body one after another.
Yet it continued charging.
Ten meters.
Eight meters.
Five meters!
More lasers struck its chest.
Flesh and blood were burned through.
Its thick legs suddenly went weak.
Boom!
Its huge body collapsed to the ground and slid several meters.
It was dead.
Zane was completely dumbfounded.
His Savage Ork.
That Savage Ork that had excited him for half a day.
It had appeared for less than a minute.
And it was already dead?
He abruptly looked outside the territory.
There were people everywhere.
Hundreds of them!
“Holy shit!”
“Who the fuck are you?!”
Zane’s eyes were filled with rage.
“What are you doing?!”
“Did I provoke or offend you?!”
The thirty-something Elf archers were almost all dead.
The newly recruited Orks had it even worse.
As soon as they left the barracks, they were focused on by a dozen lasguns.
They could not even get close to the Steel Legion.
Zane’s heart was bleeding.
These units had all cost money!
How many credit points had he spent?
He had only just assembled his frontline Savage Orks and backline Elf archers.
Before he could even go out and show off his strength, his base had been attacked!
“Who the hell are you?!”
Zane rushed out while holding his longsword.
“Why are you attacking me?!”
Hum!
A laser beam instantly shot toward him.
Pfft!
An additional charred hole appeared in his forehead.
Zane’s vision went black.
The entire world instantly lost its color.
[You have died!]
[Current territory is under attack!]
[Unable to command troops while in lord death state!]
“…”
Zane blankly stared at the black-and-white screen.
On the other side, Leo had already run to the center of the territory.
He looked left.
Then right.
The Ork barracks.
The Elf barracks.
The gold mine building.
They were all still there!
“Haha!”
Leo laughed out loud.
“Two barracks!”
“One resource building!”
“Profited!”
The last Savage Ork fell to the ground.
The System’s voice appeared.
Ding!
[Congratulations to Lord Leo for defeating player Zane!]
[The enemy territory has lost its resistance capability!]
[Please select a processing method!]
[One: Occupy]
[Retain the existing buildings of the territory, reinforce the camp, and make it your affiliated territory.]
[Two: Destroy]
[Completely destroy the territory, recycling a portion of Gold Coins and building Materials.]
[The existing buildings in the territory will be returned as corresponding building blueprints!]
[Three: Pillage]
[Pillage the territory warehouse, obtaining the wealth and some rare Materials within.]
Zane saw it too.
He almost bounced right out of his gaming capsule.
“Don’t!”
“Don’t choose one or two!”
He frantically opened the nearby player channel.
[Player Zane: Choose three! Big brother! Choose three!]
[Player Zane: I bought these blueprints with a heavy sum of money!]
[Player Zane: Don’t mess with me!]
[Player Zane: I’m begging you!]
[Player Zane: I’ll be your underling!]
Messages kept popping up in front of Leo.
He lowered his head and took a look.
After thinking for a moment, Leo replied with one question.
[Player Leo: Are you an American?]
Zane was stunned.
What the heck?
[Player Zane: ?]
Leo smiled.
“Not taking advantage when it’s there.”
“Bastard.”
“Destroy!”
Ding!
[Lord Leo chose to destroy!]
Boom!
The Ork barracks began to collapse.
The Elf barracks shattered along with it.
The gold mine building turned into a massive light.
Blueprints flew out one after another from the ruins!
Zane’s hands and feet became stiff.
He could only watch helplessly as his territory was swallowed by flames.
The next second—
The entire game screen shattered with a roar!
Real World
Ohio City.
A high-end residential complex.
The gaming capsule abruptly opened.
Zane bounced up from inside.
His eyes were bloodshot.
“Leo!”
“Fuck your mother!”
“Holy shit, your mother!!!”
