Chapter 075 AFK
Just as Li Hanqiang said, he was not in a hurry and leisurely left the game running for four whole days!
In these four days, Xiang Mang's city defense center had already been built.
His city defense center has a distinct architectural style from that of the young monk Huixin. Huixin's is a temple hall, like the main hall of a Buddhist temple, grand and solemn, while Xiang Mang's is a brick and tile building, somewhat resembling a martial arts gathering hall.
Just as Li Hanqiang had guessed, Xiang Mang's city defense center also had progress on city defense technology research and development.
Besides wandering around Chaos City, Huixin the little monk and Xiang Mang spend their days fishing with Li Hanqiang in the Azure Wave Pool, or "sitting" in the city defense center to keep up with the research progress.
Of course, they can also start the gold coin challenge, but unfortunately, this gold coin challenge only involves defending towers to fight monsters, and they can only watch.
In four days, Huixin and Xiang Mang's research progress on city defense only increased by 1%. The two repeatedly suggested to Li Hanqiang that they start the 13th wave of monster attacks, but Li Hanqiang just wouldn't do it.
He sat calmly on his fishing boat, spending his time either AFK fishing or watching Fat Tiger's livestream, which Fat Tiger knew nothing about, and receiving a small tank worth one yuan every day.
Unfortunately, this guy stopped being reckless and didn't give Li Hanqiang a chance to launch a robbery.
In four days, Li Hanqiang only left Bibo Pool once, when he went to inspect the Demon Mountain Cave and issued an order to have the little demons build symmetrical huts at the foot of the mountain.
The little drill wind patrolled the mountain for four days and found two more pieces of refined iron ore and a piece of red copper ore. No new technologies appeared in the Demon Mountain, but three acres of fertile land in the Demon Mountain Farm were reclaimed, and the maximum number of little demons was increased to 150.
Meanwhile, the game world is constantly changing, and Li Hanqiang's Chaos City has stagnated and made no progress, falling out of the gold coin challenge leaderboard.
But he's not in a hurry.
At this moment, Li Hanqiang stood up, gathered the group of fishing minions together, and tallied up their catch over the past four days.
The little demons had released countless small fish, and after counting their catch, Li Hanqiang had a total of 10 small Chaos Bottles, and had also fished out two bright green turtle shells, as well as a shark gun, a set of coral boots, and a seaweed cloak!
Five ceramic jars and similar items were also caught.
After leaving the Azure Pool, Li Hanqiang contacted Dark Night Redemption and sold the two bright green turtle shells.
Gold coins are worthless now, and Dark Night Redemption has become quite wealthy. He valued the bright green turtle shell highly and spent 500 gold coins to buy it.
Li Hanqiang deposited all 500 gold coins into the Chaos Treasury, which now holds a reserve of 995 gold and 26 silver coins.
"That's about right!" Li Hanqiang rubbed his chin, looking thoughtful.
Behind him, the young monk Huixin and Xiang Mang, however, lacked his patience and both looked anxious.
The young monk Huixin said, "Lord City Lord, we haven't joined the Empire, so we don't receive any faction quests, and no refugees come to join us. We're also so undisciplined. How can we develop like this? We've fallen far behind!"
Xiang Mang also shouted, "Lord City Lord, I'm so bored, why don't you start the monster siege? I can go straight into battle and kill the enemy. I'm waiting to level up and master the Administrative Code."
Li Hanqiang was slightly displeased. He turned around, looked up and down, and sized up the two governors for a while before saying, "Do you think I, the city lord, am wasting my time and not making any progress? Do you think I've been playing around these past four days? How could you possibly see through my grand strategies? Do you know that I've been gathering intelligence on the enemy these past four days? Do you know my plan?"
The young monk Huixin and Xiang Mang stared at each other, completely unable to understand.
To gather intelligence on the enemy, but what enemy intelligence did they gather?
What grand strategies and tactics are there? The grand strategies and tactics of fishing?
In the eyes of the young monk Huixin and Xiang Mang, Li Hanqiang had simply been doing nothing for the past four days.
As provincial governors, whether they are timid or reckless, as long as their loyalty is high, they will be wholeheartedly devoted to Chaos City.
"Alright!" Li Hanqiang observed the expressions of the two provincial officials and said, "Then let me show you my skills! It's rare for me to remain calm and collected when things are going well, yet you've underestimated me! I'm as steady as an old tortoise; I don't make a sound until I do, and when I do, I'll astound everyone; I don't fly until I do, and when I do, I'll soar to the heavens!"
Li Hanqiang strode forward, but began to move the Chaos Stone Tablet.
A moment later, except for the immobile Beast Catcher, Li Hanqiang moved all the remaining defensive towers to the front of the city gate. Since the chaotic energy was robbed from Chun Sanyue, he had a lot of surplus and didn't care how much he used it.
Li Hanqiang even moved the Chaos Slab that housed the Mysterious Shop to the back of Chaos City Square.
He also went to the Demon Mountain Cave and brought over thirty lesser demons, including Little Drill Wind and Little Tuolei.
Seeing Li Hanqiang's actions, the young monk Huixin quietly chatted with Xiang Mang beside him: "It seems the city lord is preparing to launch the 13th wave of monster attacks. Finally, finally."
Xiang Mang said in a deep voice, "Does the city lord intend to rely on the city gates for defense? I don't think it's necessary. With the firepower of our defensive towers, we can completely block the attacking monsters, preventing them from even making it across the war corridor. I can also sit in front of the city gate and ensure that not a single monster can enter the city. Of course, this is more secure. The city lord is very secure."
"Little monk, come here!"
Li Hanqiang turned his head and ordered the little monk Huixin to stand on the chaotic stone slab near the city gate, while Xiang Mang was arranged to stand on the opposite side.
This madmang Xiangmang rode on a three-headed tiger of the Flame Demon, grinning foolishly, rubbing his fists together, looking like he was about to have a big battle.
He possesses the talent of a tiger general, and is not restricted by the Chaos Slab. He can directly charge into the War Corridor. However, staying on the Chaos Slab is safe, so there is no need for him to fight his way out.
The silver-horned slime and the four ordinary slimes were naturally placed on the Chaos Slab next to the city gate by Li Hanqiang.
After some adjustments, Li Hanqiang smiled slightly, looked at the young monk Huixin, and said, "Little monk, now sit down and chant the scriptures properly. I'm about to launch the monster siege!"
After saying that, Li Hanqiang had a thought and immediately ended the preparations for battle. Soon, the space-time wormhole appeared with siege monsters, which were indeed slimes, level 28.
The siege monsters are divided into three waves, each wave consisting of the same type of monster. Li Hanqiang had already anticipated that the thirteenth wave of monsters would be slimes.
Slimes are large, have low attack power, and move slowly. This level 28 slime was no exception. It took a long time for the vanguard of slimes to reach the city gate.
What puzzled the young monk Huixin was that none of the defensive towers, including the Flame Tower, were attacking.
"I'll take control of the tower, little monk, do your best to persuade them!" Li Hanqiang shouted.
The young monk Huixin was stunned. What did the city lord mean?
He dared not think too much, closed his eyes, sat cross-legged, and focused on chanting the scriptures.
Seeing the slimes attacking, the mangy man was already impatient and shouted, "Lord, let me go up and have a good slaughter!"
"No rush, no rush, just watch the show!" Li Hanqiang said. He not only prevented Xiang Mang from attacking, but also put away the Silver Horn Slime and the others.
