Chapter 450: The Battle of Domains

The attack on the fourth day was ineffective—

By this time, many people had already realized the terrifying defensive power of the light shield, and they felt that the possibility of successfully launching an attack was now extremely low.

However, they didn’t want to give up and wanted to test how strong the protective capabilities of this light shield really were.

The attack on the fifth day was ineffective—

Many people have probably already guessed that the mask has something to do with the city wall.

The Protoss ore is indestructible, proven by countless individuals. No one, except perhaps the魔猿, can possibly shake it.

Day six…

Some people began to set their sights on the Demon Apes, and some organizations even started capturing and relocating them.

However, they found that the demonic ape’s attack on the light shield was equally ineffective.

A light mask covers the outer perimeter of the city wall, effectively protecting it.

Someone who had just figured it out said, “Only the Demon Ape could destroy the Star Spirit Ore城墙, but since he’s been protected, even the Demon Ape is helpless. Moreover, this wall is merely a backup—it only absorbs attacks, while the real main defense is the glowing shield right at the front.”

Starting from the seventh day, the number of attackers began to decrease.

They had no choice but to believe that the city was indeed too strong.

An attack by five million people didn’t even make the city walls tremble, nor did it cause the slightest shake to the ground inside the walls.

More and more people gave up on attacking.

If this was the miracle that Lu Yu had spoken of, they would absolutely believe it.

A city that even five million warriors could not breach stands here as a symbol.

Many people are well aware that after enduring countless wars, this destroyed city is about to rise again.

By the eighth day, those still launching attacks were already less than a million.

All these people harbor a侥幸 mentality, hoping their attack will be the final straw that breaks the camel’s back.

The reward was too tempting for them to miss.

As the tenth day arrived, everyone came to a stop.

They were extremely discouraged.

This city is too hard; it’s actually indestructible.

Lu Yu once again appeared above Fanggang City, his gaze sweeping over the battlefield.

In ten days, they felt that Lu Yu had changed a bit again.

Those eyes were like two stars, within which seemed to shimmer countless beams of starlight.

Someone exclaimed in alarm: “I heard that Lu Yu transformed his own body into a weapon on the Demon Hunting Plains. Why does it feel like this is not an ordinary weapon?”

Many demons shook their heads in disbelief; such a thing had never been heard of before.

A demon said, “Even throughout the generations of kings, no one has ever been able to transform their own body into a weapon.”

At this moment, Lu Yu slowly spoke, saying: “I believe everyone here now understands how strong this city is. What I am about to announce is that starting tomorrow, the city will begin accepting applications. Half of the city’s area will be available for rent, while the other half will be reserved for my own people to live in.”

In fact, most people already know what Lu Yu will do next.

As soon as this miracle is revealed, it is believed that the prices of the city areas to be sold will also be substantial.

But he believes that many people would surely choose to scramble for it.

There is such a city, and many powers are well aware of its value.

After such a sensation, it was only a matter of time before Fanggang became prosperous.

As Lu Yu’s voice faded, someone called out loudly, “Mr. Lu, is this the second miracle you spoke of—showing us an impregnable city?”

Lu Yu faintly smiled in the air and said, “Who said this is already the second miracle?”

“What, this isn’t the second miracle?”

Such a city is truly a miracle.

Moreover, everyone present thought so as well.

However, Lu Yu denied it, which couldn’t help but surprise everyone greatly.

Immediately, the city all around became noisy.

Someone shouted loudly, “Mr. Lu, if this isn’t the second miracle, then what exactly is the second miracle you were referring to?”

They were convinced that this city was a miracle, and indeed, its existence was nothing short of miraculous.

If the existence of this city itself is denied as a miracle, then what exactly is the second miracle?

Lu Yu smiled faintly and said, “What I have to say hasn’t finished yet. I will eventually tell you everything you need to know. But before that, since there are so many people here, I’ll first share with everyone some information about this city.”

Lu Yu said, waving his hand.

The light shield around the city wall quickly retracted and vanished.

Lu Yu said, “Inside the city wall is called the First Domain. Before the protective barrier around the First Domain is activated, anyone can enter and exit freely. Regardless of which organization you belong to, or even if you are my enemy, you are allowed to enter. However—”

Lu Yu’s voice paused for a moment, then he spoke seriously, “Once the Domain Dome is raised, everyone will be expelled from the domain. This is my domain, my city. The only way to avoid expulsion when the Domain Dome is activated is to have your soul imprint recorded by the First Domain. Starting tomorrow, the First Domain will begin accepting applications for permanent residents.”

Many people had already guessed that there would be restrictions on entering the first realm, and the crowd was well prepared.

However, this news was still sensational enough.

Someone shouted loudly, “Mr. Lu, exactly how many spots are there? And how much does the first spot cost? You can name your price now so we can prepare accordingly.”

“Mr. Lu, please tell us quickly, how can we sell this quota?” More people were already eager to try.

They have already seen the defenses of the city wall; what more doubts could there be?

Many people also know that there may be a great calamity in the near future, which will be an even more intense destruction.

The guarantee of survival was to find a safer place, and this city was exactly what they needed.

Many people shouted loudly, asking Lu Yu how much money it would take to enter the First Field.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu looked down with a cold smile and said, “Do you really think a spot here can be bought with money? I’m not a capitalist—I’ve got more than enough funds. I want to build this city, and if necessary, I could complete it using only my own resources, even if it takes more time. Do you really think I lack money? Listen carefully: one of the conditions for entering this city is that once you move in, you absolutely must not violate its rules. The second condition is that your abilities and qualifications must meet the requirements for application. All applications will be handled by Liu Xing and his team starting tomorrow. Furthermore, once you violate the first rule, your residency qualification will be immediately revoked. When the shield is activated, violators will be expelled.”

Someone listened, slightly taken aback, then scoffed, “Not for money? Lu Yu, you’re just using this method to screen talented people who would be useful to you!”

What this person said resonated with many people.

Many people expressed dissatisfaction, saying, “Mr. Lu, these conditions are too strict. It would be much easier to just use money. Just name your price, and we are willing to pay an additional thirty percent to purchase it.”

“Mr. Lu, why don’t we go with the more cost-effective option?”

“Yeah, that way you don’t lose out either, since a single spot is definitely worth a lot of money.”

People were speaking all at once, making the city even noisier.

Lu Yu’s expression became increasingly cold, causing many people who were gossiping to sense the shift in atmosphere and fall silent one after another.

Lu Yu said with a cold expression, “Money isn’t everything. The conditions I’ve stated cannot be changed by anyone, not even my fellow warriors. Do you think I built this city merely to expand my power? This city was built for my loved ones. What I pursue is not just strong influence, but the strongest combat capability. Therefore, my conditions remain unchanged. You can choose not to apply, and even if no one resides in the first district, I absolutely refuse to accept any useless people.”

The surroundings fell silent, as everyone knew that Lu Yu had truly lost his temper.

Lu Yu was the first to break the silence, his voice low and solemn: “Starting tomorrow, construction of the second domain will also begin. If anyone is interested in participating in the construction, you may consult with Liu Xing. The second domain will be approximately twice the size of the original Shanghai and its surrounding areas, requiring an enormous quantity of star-spirit ore. However, the second domain will not have a protective shield; instead, it will share defensive forces from the first domain. The city walls will be 300 meters high, with foundations extending 150 meters underground and 30 meters thick. This means that when the second domain is completed, warriors from the first domain will be able to reach its walls for defense. Those who contribute to the construction of the second domain may claim a portion of it as their camp or base. However, should invasions or other issues arise, you will be required to assist the domain guards in defense efforts.”

“Another second realm?” Many people were astonished. Upon hearing the height of the city wall, they couldn’t help but be greatly shocked.

The first domain is already nearly half the size of modern-day Shanghai, encompassing within its boundaries the Blood Tower and the Star Spirit mine that Lu Yu had brought out.

This is a vast area stretching hundreds of miles in both length and width.

If it were twice the size of Shanghai in both length and width, it would be about four times the area of the first field, nearly four hundred miles.

If this city is built, it will not only incorporate the surrounding plains, but even some of the nearby mountains will be included within its boundaries.

Someone exclaimed in alarm: “Even without the shield, a city wall this high can block a large portion of attacks. When combined with the defense of the domain guardian, its defensive power shouldn’t be underestimated at all.”

A representative from Britain, without waiting for others to react, had already spoken loudly: “Mr. Lu, we want a ten percent share.”

The Briton’s words frightened quite a few people.

The British military has obtained 500 Supreme Star Soldiers, and their power has been continuously growing since the country’s reunification.

The star soul ores from each city were also gathered together.

However, a city twice as large as Shanghai, how many ten thousands of people can this city accommodate?

If it were really built, the security system would be quite high under the protection of the city walls.

However, a tenth of the share, calculated by the length, width, and height of the city wall, might not be much different in consumption compared to an inner city.

This amount requires careful consideration for many people.

The British dare to be so straightforward in making a move like this; aside from confidence, it’s also a matter of financial strength.

Lu Yu nodded toward the speaker and said, “After these matters are settled, everyone can discuss things with Liu Xing. However, everyone should remember that the amount of city wall you help construct will be related to the size of the area you can later claim inside the city walls.”

The British man’s heart leaped with joy, thinking he had made a profit this time.

Their country is now financially strong, and building a section of city wall like this would demarcate a very large area.

All factions were similarly moved and began to ponder, calculating how much of the projects their own side could afford to undertake.

At this moment, Lu Yu laughed loudly and said, “Alright. I’ve said all I needed to say. You all wanted to see the second miracle, right? Now I’ll show you exactly what this miracle is!”

At this moment, countless eyes were already fixed on Lu Yu, eager to see what the second miracle would be!
