Realized Game: I Hoarded 10 Billion Defense Towers

This time, he set his sights on protecting all of Great Xia. Since every nation had become an "isolated island," cut off both geographically and in terms of information, this island—Great Xia—would be his to protect. Previously, during the scramble for the Neutral Cities, he had single-handedly maneuvered within a 1,000-kilometer radius of Qing City to defend eight cities. But this time, he alone would maneuver across the entire territory of Great Xia to defend even more of his comrades.

It would be best if all the settlements moved to within 8,000 kilometers of a Neutral City... I can’t guarantee I’ll be able to protect the ones that are too remote!

While gathering intelligence on the Forum, Shen Fei pulled out a map and quickly began cross-referencing information. As for the five Teleportation Gate Building Stones he held, it was obvious one had to go to the Divine Capital, and Songhai City needed one as well. Originally, he had also planned to place one in [Mist City], but he canceled his plans for Hang City after Number 0 and his group abandoned it.

In the end, Shen Fei decided that, aside from [Yang City], Songhai, and the Divine Capital, his other two Teleportation Gate Building Stones would be placed in Yang City in the south and West-Townning City in the west of Great Xia. This would create a Teleportation Array network covering the north, south, east, west, and center of Great Xia.

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!

Scrolling through the Forum, he saw quite a few settlements with populations over 10,000 desperately pleading for support while trying to reduce their numbers. After three weeks of inheriting powers, no one wanted to challenge the rules. Any stubborn fool who dared to challenge the rules was already pushing up daisies. Everyone’s first choice was to reduce their population.

Just as Shen Fei was thinking about contacting the Tourism Management Office to help split up the populations, he was surprised to find that, speak of the devil, Huang Yi had contacted him first.

"Brother Fei!"

"Brother Huang!"

After they greeted each other, Huang Yi’s first question was exactly what Shen Fei had expected. He asked Shen Fei about the Version 4.2 update, which announced that certain items previously marked "Temporarily Unavailable" could now be used. Huang Yi had also received rewards in the previous Great Chaos Secret Realm.

After Shen Fei assured him that the items were safe to use, Huang Yi brought up the very topic Shen Fei had wanted to discuss.

"Brother Fei! Do you have any advice for the upcoming beast tide?" he asked. "Is there anything you can...?"

As the honorary president of the Tourism Management Office’s Divine Capital headquarters, Huang Yi was mainly contacting Shen Fei to ask for help. For one thing, no one had expected the full-blown crisis of Version 4.1, and no one had anticipated the regularly occurring monster tides either. Those regular, ceaseless monster tides seemed to have one purpose: to wipe out humanity.

Humanity might fend off one wave without a problem. They might even fend off two. But those monster tides were endless, spawning one wave after another with no limit. Faced with this kind of periodically and infinitely spawning monster tide, Huang Yi’s first thought was to ask Shen Fei for help.

"Issue a general announcement! All settlements with a population over 10,000 must reduce their numbers to 10,000! That way, we can avoid most of the monster tide outbreaks," Shen Fei advised. "As for defending the Neutral Cities, I have an item that can help!"

Communicating quickly with Huang Yi, Shen Fei gave his advice and also sent over the stats for the now-usable [Neutral City Gate Building Stone].

"Brother Fei! I’ll buy it!!!" Huang Yi grew ecstatic when he saw the [Teleportation Gate Building Stone]. "This item! We’ll buy it!!!"

With this, Neutral Cities could be fully supported once they had Teleportation Gates. This item was invaluable.

"No need to buy them! One for the Divine Capital, one for Qing City, one for Songhai, and one each for Yang City and West-Townning City! Once they’re installed, just reserve three permanent teleportation access slots for me on each one."

Ignoring Huang Yi’s offer, Shen Fei simply sent the items over. These items could only be placed in Neutral Cities. To maximize their effectiveness, they needed to be placed in distant Neutral Cities. By giving them to the other cities for free, he was actually helping himself. This way, he would gain the ability to travel quickly without consuming his [Long-range Teleportation] charges. From now on, the [Long-range Teleportation] from his Divine Artifact would be reserved for emergencies and situations that required more precision. Meanwhile, teleporting between the Neutral Cities could become his primary method for routine long-distance travel.

"Alright!"

Shen Fei is as incredible as ever, Huang Yi thought, just as he’d expected. All I had to do was contact him, and he could solve the problem in an instant.

Case in point: as soon as Huang Yi mentioned his concerns, Shen Fei immediately provided a solution, instantly solving the long-distance travel problem.

"Then..." After his excitement subsided, Huang Yi asked again.

They had the Teleportation Stones, but the most urgent task now was to actually use them. But to use them, the Teleportation Stones had to get to their respective cities. And that was another problem. As of now, items couldn’t be teleported between cities. Once a Teleportation Gate was established, people could carry things through the Teleportation Array. But since the gates hadn’t been built yet, getting this first batch of items delivered was an issue. The monster tide was set to break out in just a few hours. Even if they dispatched people to deliver them by hand, they wouldn’t make it in time.

"Use your personal panel and connect to this link! Also, get the Tourism Management Office directors in Yang City and West-Townning City, along with Zhao Li and his people, to connect as well!"

Shen Fei knew what Huang Yi was getting at before he even finished speaking.

Shen Fei, already geared up and ready to go in the [Ninth World],
