Realized Game: I Hoarded 10 Billion Defense Towers

「A few minutes ago.」

Shen Fei had used the Disguise Technique to slip directly into Piltover.

Outside the city, Father Shen and the other four were bored out of their minds. Hiding their faces with their clothes, they were waiting for Shen Fei's return just as he had asked. Now that they were in the Game World, all their communication methods were cut off. Unable to contact Shen Fei for a status update, all five of them could do was obediently wait in place for him to finish his business and return.

This was the final part of their mandatory mission: entering the mysterious Rune Continent. Once they realized what the mission entailed, they didn't dare to act recklessly.

BOOM!

But events rarely unfold as one hopes. Father Shen and the others had wanted to wait quietly for Shen Fei's return, but the situation wouldn't allow it.

They saw that just a few seconds after Shen Fei had left, the bridge leading into Piltover suddenly fell into chaos. Countless guards rushed out from the city, shouting something. However, before they could even take their positions, the panicking crowd immediately scattered them.

The dense crowd, which had been entering the city in an orderly fashion, was suddenly spooked by a massive explosion and began scrambling toward Piltover. Fearing the presence of Noxian troops or a Shuriman Sand Thieves Gang outside the city, everyone's first instinct upon sensing trouble was to rush inside for safety.

CRACK!

As the populace panicked, a massive, portal-like device high in the distant sky—made of countless concentric, light-blue rings—began to transform before everyone's stunned eyes. The rings, all of different sizes, contracted and stacked together. Then, they formed a disc-shaped apparatus larger than an airship and retracted into a huge building.

"The Hex Gate is closing!"

"Run!"

"Something big is happening!"

As Father Shen and the others watched the giant disc retract, they also heard the panicked shouts of the people rushing past them.

"Let's go!"

Zhao Li and the others, of course, recognized the Hex Gate. Watching the scene change so abruptly and thinking of Shen Fei, who had just entered Piltover, the five of them exchanged a glance. They immediately stopped waiting and began rushing into the city with the flow of people.

Although Shen Fei had told them to wait where they were, they couldn't wait any longer. With the crowd surging around them, staying put would have been far too conspicuous. Given the strange turn of events, their only option was to follow the crowd into Piltover.

Soon, the five of them were swept along by the noisy, jam-packed crowd into the vast city.

WHOOSH.

Still not knowing what had happened and facing this sudden change, Zhao Li had no choice but to nod at Huang Yi and instantly release his Detecting Divine Sense. He was worried that using Immortal Yuan in a world like the Rune Continent—where the Spiritual Domain, the Material Realm, and various other Domains overlapped—might trigger some special change.

Previously, Zhao Li had no intention of using his abilities. But now… I have no choice! He had to find out what exactly had happened here. Even if my Immortal Yuan is exposed, I have to first understand what's going on in this city…

SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!

Zhao Li nodded and assumed the stance to deploy his Detecting Divine Sense. Faced with this situation, Huang Yi also waved his hand, instantly Summoning fifty Defense Towers around them.

At the same time, Father Shen, Succubus's Tear, and Young Master Void all went on full alert!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The group had just rushed into Piltover and found a corner to get into formation. Before Zhao Li could even fully unleash his power, a series of violent explosions erupted once more.

"Fuck!"

"Jinx!"

"Fuck!!!"

"Powder?"

Along with the massive explosions, a young woman shot across the sky, riding a large, shark-shaped rocket. She had long blue braids, a crazy grin plastered on her face, a slender figure, and various firearms and explosives strapped to her body.

Those who recognized the young woman's identity couldn't help but cry out.

Familiar with the lore of Rune Land, they knew that the targets they had to kill were the various Heroes from the game. At that moment, the first Hero from the game had appeared! This "Jinx," although her Combat Power wasn't the strongest in this Game World, had a name and personality that were the most famous and the most unique.

WHOOSH.

Just as the group stood on alert, preparing to see what Jinx would do, they suddenly saw an oval-shaped Teleportation Gate, taller than a person, appear directly in front of them.

"Holy shit!"

"He's here!"

Seeing the Teleportation Gate open nearby, the group, who had been feeling lost without their leader just moments ago, instantly brightened. They recognized the oval-shaped Teleportation Gate as the same style as Shen Fei's Teleportation Gate Tower.

A moment ago, they were still wondering how they would find Shen Fei after moving from their spot. None of them expected that, in the blink of an eye, Shen Fei's Teleportation Gate would appear right before them.

WHOOSH.

After appearing, the Teleportation Gate instantly began to grow larger, and soon, a figure stepped out from within.

"Shen…!"

Watching the man lead the way out, the five of them, who were just about to speak, were suddenly stunned. They saw that as their leader, Shen Fei, walked out of the Teleportation Gate, he was followed by a large group of "people" filing out in an orderly line.
