My Chaotic City - Chapter 48
Chapter 48: Siege Order
The Siege Order was a system prop divided into nine stages. Zhen Deqiang had the lowest level, first stage Siege Order but felt that it was enough.
“When the city siege mission starts, I will see what Li Hanqiang can do.” Zhen Deqiang was full of fantasies. The straight brow player standing in front of him in the air was Chun Sanyue.
Chun Sanyue had a callous look on his face as he yelled, “Zhen Deqiang, you are a stupid f*cker with nothing better to do. Why do you want to carry out a city siege?”
Zhen Deqiang looked down at Chun Sanyue with a defiant look and said, “You are a gutless person. I as your brother have gifted you with a siege mission. Are you too afraid to accept it?”
Without waiting for Chun Sanyue’s reply, Zhen Deqiang said, “You have been a cowardly person since childhood and still are even after growing up. It’s fine if you are only a coward in reality, but you are a coward even when playing a game! Look at me. I am a person who can separate gratitude and revenge, galloping around in this wide world in pursuit of my own happiness. This is what a real man is.”
“Bah, you are just an idiot. You only know how to make enemies without using your brain. You lack any intelligence!” Chun Sanyue yelled.
Zhen Deqiang was not annoyed. He shook his head and said, “It seems like you do not understand me. I can add, subtract, multiply, and divide numbers of up to four digits in seconds with my ten fingers. Am I an unintelligent person? How can I not commit any wrongdoings when I am a person of this world. How can I just play games that are peaceful and stable! This Endless World is a confrontation game, where people are either your friends or an opponent. The ones that start first are stronger than the latecomers who suffer. I am happy if others are upset!”
“Such fallacious reasons and logic!” Chun Sanyue obviously disagreed.
Zhen Deqiang glared and said, “You can just give me a quick decision of whether you will help me to carry out an attack on the city. If you don’t say yes, I will go offline now and go over to your place to beat you.”
“You cowardly person! You haven’t even made any inquiries first about Li Hanqiang’s identity. His name is hanging at the top of the Gold Coin Challenge Leaderboard. What if he is the president of a big guild? Aren’t you just causing problems for yourself?” Chun Sanyue said.
“You are really cowardly to always be afraid of this and that. You’re so restrained when you play games. Even if you can’t accept it, you should just do it. Isn’t it tiring to always think about it so much?” Zhen Deqiang despised Chun Sanyue. “If you win the siege, you will also receive a system reward. Isn’t that a good thing for you.”
“There are system rewards?” Chun Sanyue raised his eyebrows and approached Zhen Deqiang as he reached his hands out for the Siege Order.
—
Siege Order (first stage): special prop, specifically for the Chaotic City Lord. One-time prop.
Designate a Chaotic City and open a one-way through the Space-Time Wormhole to start an attack on the city.
Description 1: The first stage Siege Order automatically summons 10,000 siege troops from the Level 10 Empire Camp.
Description 2: It is not allowed to launch attacks against the Chaotic City of the same camp.
Description 3: The party carrying out the attack can send Chaotic City soldiers, guards and war machinery to fight.
Description 4: The Chaotic City Lords both attacking and defending can freely form a siege army and a defense army. However, the first stage Siege Order limits the number of siege players to no more than 1,000. The limited number of defenders cannot exceed the total number of idle Chaotic Stone Slabs.
Description 5: The protective effect of the Chaotic Stone Slabs on defenders is considered invalid and the War Corridor restrictions are lifted.
Description 6: The preparation time is 12 hours. After the siege on the city starts, the players on both sides will have temporarily bound resurrection points at their respective Chaos’ Cores. When the level of the defensive players drops to Level 1, they will be forced to leave.
Description 7: When the defender’s army power reaches zero, the city defense will be considered a failure. The siege party will receive tons of system rewards while the defender’s Chaotic City will return to its initial state (the Chaotic City Lord can retain their passive skills, defensive towers, and other buildings that can be protected by using certain props).
Description 8: If the defender can continue defending the city against the siege for 48 hours or the attacker gives up, the defender will receive lots of system rewards while the attacking party will be punished by the system.
Description 9: The defender cannot be attacked again within 10 days.

“This Siege Order…” Chen Sanyue frowned. He immediately anticipated that siege wars would happen frequently in the future as this was a game to be played between Chaotic City Lords. It would become a daily confrontation between different camps.
In addition, while the attribute information of the Siege Order was not clearly stated, a player first needed to join a camp in order to use a Siege Order.
Chun Sanyue thought about it and could not help but be wavered by his own thoughts…
Li Hanqiang was still hesitant on whether he wanted to upgrade the Chaos’ Core when a system notification suddenly sounded.
[Ding. Dear Chaotic City Lord, Lord of Chaotic City No. 69 had used the Siege Order. An attack will be launched on your Chaotic City after 12 hours. You are now in preparation time. Kindly prepare your defenses. After the preparation time is over, the entrance for the Blue Ripple Pond and the Cave Dwelling in Gremlin’s Mountain will be temporarily closed. The specific attack and defense methods are as follows…]
—
Li Hanqiang was stunned.
A siege battle!
Chaotic City No. 69 was going to attack his city?
Didn’t 12 hours later mean that it would start at 12 noon tomorrow?
Li Hanqiang suddenly remembered his conversation with Deity Robber and now understood everything. He frowned as he said, “The Emperor’s Rich Guild has actually collaborated with Chaotic City No. 69! And now, they are looking to attack my Chaotic City…”
He quickly and carefully checked the details of the attack and defense parties.
After more than half an hour, Li Hanqiang stood up with a shady expression on his face and said, “If that is the case, don’t blame me, Li Hanqiang, for being cruel!”
His normally loose attitude suddenly disappeared as he strode toward the Cave Dwelling in Gremlin’s Mountain.
After a moment, apart from leaving five little gremlins behind in the Gremlin Mountain Farm and another 10 little gremlins in the Gremlin Mountain Workshop, Li Hanqiang gathered the rest of them up, including Little Drill Gremlin together. Counting them up, there was just the right amount, 100 of them in total.
‘We can’t help it by being in this wide world[1]!’ Li Hanqiang sigh before he issued out an order, “You guys, build a Void Station at the back of the mountain for me!”
“Yes, my King!”
“The King is mighty!”
“Long live the King…”
The Little Drill Gremlin, together with the group of little gremlins continued to flatter Li Hanqiang before going straight to the back of the mountain.
The first large-scale project of Cave Dwelling in Gremlin’s Mountain had finally begun.
Li Hanqiang was looking on from the side. An hour later, the Void Station was fully built.
It was a small building shaped similarly to the Mayan Pyramid. There were steps below and a platform on top. When Li Hanqiang approached it, the operation window was triggered.
He understood in his heart that he only needed to consume 100 points of Chaotic Energy and the Void Platform would create its own Space-Time Wormhole.
Li Hanqiang’s goal was Chaotic City No. 69. Since Chun Sanyue had used the Siege Order, did he really have any reason to be polite?
“The preparation time for the attack is 12 hours so before you attack my city, please accept my robbery attempt!”
Li Hanqiang smiled slightly. He was not in any hurry at that moment as it was still not the best time to initiate his retaliation.
The best time would be when Chun Sanyue went to bed.
Li Hanqiang was very patient. He decided to wait until 4:30 a.m. before taking action!
While waiting, Li Hanqiang did not do much, simply making sure that the Little Drill Gremlin practiced with the little gremlins first. It did not matter if the little gremlins did somersaults or stacked on top of one another. He treated them as a mobilization unit before war and did not care if what they did was useful or not.
Li Hanqiang chose and led only nine little gremlins to the Blue Ripple Pond as he calmly began to fish.
Li Hanqiang sought to follow his destiny at the moment, so he was fine with catching anything.
That night, the Emperor’s Rich Guild and the Qiankun League were very lively. From top to bottom, they had all been conveyed the message, “Everyone must be rejuvenated today and participate in the siege battle at 12 o’clock tomorrow.”
Zhen Deqiang had already gone offline and went to sleep. On the eve of the war, he must be rejuvenated and he was waiting to show his might for tomorrow.
At the same time, Chun Sanyue happily went offline after finishing his Gold Coin Challenge. During that time, he felt he was already very diligent for working until that hour.
[Ding, ding, ding…]
The alarm clock set in his game helmet sounded and Li Hanqiang quickly stood up within the fishing boat.
“It’s time for the bandits to appear!”
He laughed, float walking to leave.
