Chapter 1258 - 501: Leaving the World Scar (2)
Watching the situation, Akka nodded and began to speak.
"Simon should have helped you fully research several perfect weapon templates, right?"
One of the council members responsible for this area nodded.
"Your primary task now is to form a defense force, then build Return City into a bulwark capable of resisting demons, with the defense facing the direction of the demons."
After years of development, the average strength of the Vastva people’s armed forces has reached the Third Stage of Perfection.
Some individuals possessing treasures have even reached around the Fifth Stage.
They have completely established a foothold here.
Without waiting for them to question, Akka continued, "The weapon factory needs to be expanded, directing manufactured devices specifically toward city defense.
Continue the previous demon research, prepare targeted defensive and attack equipment, and be ready to fend off demons at any time."
"Next, the most important thing is the Magic Gathering Stone production line. It should have been completed a while ago, right?"
Upon hearing this, one of the council members immediately nodded and said, "That’s right, although the output is very low and the defect rate is very high, it has indeed been completed."
The Magic Gathering Stone itself existed in Vastva people’s records, and with the experience of Akka and the others, they established such a production line.
"The Magic Gathering Stone produced will be the key for you to fully establish a foothold here and integrate into this world.
It’s best to take this item and your weapons to hastily join the Demon Defense Alliance."
An alliance formed by the Four Gods Church and major forces to resist demons.
Joining it would mean that the Vastva people are recognized as a force.
Though they cannot compare with other forces, they are located on the World Scar’s native land. With the production capacity of weapons and Magic Gathering Stones, these two alone are enough.
Faced with Akka’s suggestion, they fell silent, pondering over something.
Not refusing, but contemplating the meaning behind it.
Because Akka’s suggestion clearly implied that the demons might very well counterattack.
And the front line might be defeated, causing the defense line to retreat.
Since Akka advanced to Tier Six and went to the Demon-Defending Fortress to resist the demons.
At that time, the demon’s offensive was decreasingly low, maintaining the lowest offensive sustained until now.
For so many years, the front line has been continuously probing the Demon Territory.
They are even prepared for a counterattack, determined to push the Demon Defense Wall forward a bit.
Interestingly, they did not push the entire Demon Defense Wall forward but prepared to build a closer wall in the front.
Simultaneously, more defensive facilities are being constructed at the rear.
Some observant people have obviously noticed something. The Vastva people naturally have some thoughts, but now Akka’s suggestion has explicitly confirmed their thinking.
"Will the demons... counterattack?" A council member looked at Akka, quietly asking.
Although there were only a few people in this meeting, he couldn’t help but lower his voice.
Akka looked at him, neither nodding nor shaking his head, his meaning already clear.
Then he stood up: "This time, the difficulty you will encounter is the first trial you face after establishing a foothold here, and it could be the greatest trial.
If you can withstand it, then you will have truly established a firm footing here. Whether it’s the Four Gods Church or other major forces, they will recognize you.
Whether you can prosper afterward depends on this time, it is a crisis as well as an opportunity."
Leaving the few thoughtful Vastva people behind, Akka left the place.
Then he bid farewell to Bref and acquaintances in Return City.
Through rapid mirror teleportation, he arrived at the front line’s Demon-Defending Fortress.
"Are you preparing to leave?" Grefar asked while looking at him.
At this moment, Grefar was standing on the city wall, gazing into the distance.
At roughly the edge of visibility, a small rise could be seen, the newly built wall after advancing into the Demon Territory, where most personnel have now relocated.
Akka nodded: "It’s time to leave, moreover, there’s more important matter to attend to."
"I’ve heard a bit about it, by the way, thanks for your Magic Gathering Stone."
Some samples of the Magic Gathering Stone had already been sent to the front line.
Clearly, he was not thanking for himself, but for his subordinates.
The appearance of the Magic Gathering Stone accelerated everyone’s meditation speed.
After a brief chat, Akka met with members of the Holy Mother Church, exchanged a few modest words, and then left, returning to Return City.
At this time, in the hall of the houses they had lived in for many years.
Everyone was ready, many items in the rooms had been packed, and the Puppet Girls were still hopping around.
"Then let’s leave."
Akka said, and a huge mirror appeared before him, revealing the Dream Realm’s Spiral within it.
Everyone looked around, they had stayed here for a long time, it was time to leave.
With a sense of nostalgia, yet a hint of excitement. Everyone passed through the mirror and disappeared from the room.
They appeared inside a cliff cave by the seaside.
On the deck of the Sound of Dawn.
At this time, Simon had already arrived on the deck of the Sound of Dawn ahead of them, conducting a routine inspection.
