Lord of Illusions City

Chapter 720 If You Can't Afford It, Just Rob It

"Old Hu, look over here!"

Li Chenzhou teleported to the top of the fortress with Hu Tao again. Those who had come with Hu Tao entered various positions within the fortress under Hu Tao's command.

Currently, Li Chenzhou still only had himself and Grey Bear in the Duoluo World. Naturally, the war fortress here would have to be managed by people from this world!

Although the people in the war fortress didn’t place much importance on levels, and people from Li Chenzhou's side could have come over, Li Chenzhou didn’t bring anyone this time. Even the war fortress at the exit was currently controlled only by the AI.

"This valley has good terrain. After your people buy the fortresses in the future, I’ll have them place the fortresses all around here. We'll fight the Swallowing Clan's two fleets here!"

Li Chenzhou pointed at the surrounding mountains and said.

"They?"

Hu Tao shook his head with a wry smile:

"After getting the fortresses, they’ll most likely hide. Right now, many people have already prepared underground bases to hide their fortresses! They won't risk their lives fighting the Swallowing Clan!"

"It’s alright. At that time, it won’t be up to them to decide,"

Li Chenzhou said with a smile, but then he hesitated.

Right now, his time was very tight. Whether it was the Duoluo World or his own world, he had things to do. But the problem was, he couldn’t be in two places at once!

He wanted to immediately return to his own world, bringing that Swallowing Clan member with him, because he needed to confirm something as soon as possible. But here, people would soon come to buy war fortresses and other Slaughter Mall products, and he needed to use this opportunity to hoard Slaughter Points.

Both of these things required him to be present. Needless to say about this place, only he could use the Slaughter Mall; no one else could replace him. And the matter of returning to his own world could also only be done by Li Chenzhou.

He needed to return to the war fortress on his side. That war fortress was currently in battle, and he was currently the only one who could enter without canceling the energy shield. The penetration skills of others had trajectories and couldn't pass through the energy shield.

If he were to exchange for a pile of war fortresses here first, firstly, Li Chenzhou didn't have that many Slaughter Points right now. He had already left most of his Slaughter Points in Duan Lei's war fortress. Now that he was going back, he also needed to leave some Slaughter Points to deal with emergencies!

"Old Hu! Send the address to Dugu. Have him tell the people here our location. Tell them that those who want to buy things should come as soon as possible; first come, first served!"

After thinking for a while, Li Chenzhou finally decided to take care of things here first. After all, he was already here. He just needed to have the people here buy war fortresses as soon as possible.

Of course, he couldn't openly urge those people, making himself seem too anxious. So, he would use “first come, first served” to have those people hurry up.

The people here definitely wanted war fortresses. Hearing "first come, first served," they would definitely rush over as soon as possible. This would also save Li Chenzhou some time.

Hu Tao nodded and immediately teleported to the central control room, sending the location here to Dugu Tianfeng.

In the following days, Li Chenzhou and Hu Tao were incredibly busy. Li Chenzhou began to ship out goods in large quantities, truly experiencing the feeling of being a merchant. War fortresses, various weapons and equipment, evolution potions—he constantly exchanged them from the Slaughter Mall and constantly recycled countless mutated crystal cores to the Slaughter Mall, exchanging them for a large number of Slaughter Points.

Hu Tao and Dugu Tianfeng were also quite busy, gathering all the manpower they could muster and making the final pre-war preparations!

In addition, people from other worlds also came here one after another, meeting Li Chenzhou. Li Chenzhou didn't hide anything, directly telling them that he had found the Swallowing Clan's lair.

Initially, after seeing the video Li Chenzhou gave them, the people from those worlds were quite hesitant. Their worlds were similar to the Duoluo World, having been pastures for who knows how many tens of thousands of years. They were very clear about the Swallowing Clan's strength.

In their view, although they could enter the Swallowing Clan's lair, they had no hope of victory if they fought them.

The reason was simple. In their own worlds, they had always been suppressed by the Swallowing Clan. If they entered the Swallowing Clan's lair and lost the advantage of terrain, they would have even less of a chance of fighting them!

However, after Li Chenzhou stated the pros and cons, many people from other worlds were tempted. After all, no one wanted to live under the Swallowing Clan's shadow forever, living in constant fear!

Especially after seeing the war fortresses and other weapons from the Slaughter Mall, those people also gained some confidence. What's more, Li Chenzhou finally told them that they only needed to send an elite force to participate in the battle!

Because it was from the Duoluo World to Li Chenzhou's world, and then directly into the Swallowing Clan's lair from there, people from other worlds only needed to send an army to the Duoluo World. It would basically have no major impact on their own worlds.

However, this also made some people from other worlds feel that since this was the case, it didn’t really matter whether they sent troops or not. They could completely sit back and watch the tiger fight. That way, if Li Chenzhou and the others won, the Swallowing Clan in their own world would definitely retreat. And if they failed, it would also have no impact on them.

Li Chenzhou also knew what those people were thinking. Therefore, he simply issued an announcement: any world that wanted to buy a war fortress from him had to send an army of ninth-level ability users no smaller than ten thousand people. Furthermore, this army had to fully accept his command!

This announcement made many people from other worlds dissatisfied. But what kind of person was Li Chenzhou? Of course, he wouldn't indulge them. He directly told them that they either brought an army and mutated crystal cores to buy things, or they didn't need to come!

Moreover, this time, Li Chenzhou opened up all the items in the Slaughter Mall. Everything he could exchange for, he put on the purchase list for others to see!

On the list, there were even space battleships, and everything from the smallest destroyer to the mothership was available. In other words, as long as you had enough energy points and people to pilot the battleships, you could even directly assemble a space fleet that could fight against the Swallowing Clan's behemoth-class fleet.

Seeing these things, the people from other worlds were a little restless. Because the situation in each world was different, Li Chenzhou's world and the Duoluo World might not be able to find so many people who could pilot space battleships. But in other worlds, they might be able to meet such conditions.

However, the mutated crystal cores required to exchange for these things were also very terrifying, giving some people in those worlds a headache because they couldn't gather enough. Some people even planned to directly bring people over to rob after seeing the list, finding that their mutated crystal cores were not enough…
