My Chaotic City

Chapter 002 Monster Siege

At this moment, outside the chaotic void, countless adventurous players are being bombarded with system announcements.

"System Announcement: The city lord of Chaos City No. 17, [Space Hero], has issued a city defense mission."

System Announcement: City Lord No. 33 of Chaos City, [Lonely City], has issued a city defense mission. Only skilled players are welcome; no weaklings allowed!

"System Announcement: City Lord No. 47 of Chaos City, [Linglong Little Fox], has issued a city defense mission. A proud and charming fairy-like girl with an angelic face and a devilish figure is here! Unbeatable benefits are being given away on the spot. First come, first served, limited to 4 people..."

"System Announcement: City Lord Li Hanqiang of Chaos City No. 68 has issued a city defense mission. Invading monsters are gathering. Experience, gold coins, and equipment are all here. Say goodbye to fighting monsters in the wild, level up quickly, what are you waiting for? Come and defend the city..."

"System Announcement: City Lord No. 192 of Chaos City [Fat Tiger Doesn't Know Anything] has issued a city defense mission. Girls, only girls, good-looking ones..."

The game "Endless World" is incredibly popular. As soon as the open beta was launched, countless players flocked to it. Among them, quite a few players chose the "Chaos City Lord" class. Since they all posted their quests around the same time, a barrage of system announcements appeared, causing many adventurers a lot of trouble.

"Damn it, these lunatics, what kind of Chaos City Lords are they! As far as I know, a teleportation ticket costs one gold coin, and the game has only just begun. Where are they going to get one gold coin?"

"We have gold coins but we're not going? We're spending money to defend the city? Do you think we're stupid?"

"Ignore those idiot city lords, brothers, cheer up and level up!"

"Giving out perks? Who are you kidding?! What kind of fairy princess is she? She's probably just a burly guy. I'm not falling for it!"

"Upgrading is more important; I don't have time to defend any city..."

Countless adventurers complained, but some were drawn by the quest announcement and decided to go check it out...

Time passed, and for Li Hanqiang, there were only about ten minutes left before the first wave of monsters attacked the city.

He was standing next to the basic arrow tower, gazing at the spacetime wormhole.

So far, not a single adventurer player has come to our aid.

Perhaps, this first wave of monster attacks can only be defended by the [Basic Arrow Towers].

The game has only just begun, and it is assumed that the adventurer players' combat power is still quite limited. Logically speaking, whether they come or not should be irrelevant, and the difficulty of the first wave of monster sieges should not be high.

Unfortunately, no players came to support him, so the Chaos City Lord didn't get the "entrance fee".

You should know that the Lord of Chaos City can get 50 silver coins for selling a single ticket.

"Looks like I need to work on my writing skills and make the mission announcement more appealing," Li Hanqiang thought to himself.

Suddenly, a beam of light descended from the sky and transformed into a player holding a longbow on a chaotic stone slab.

This player looks very young and is a bit short, probably only about 1.6 meters tall. He is wearing a beginner's outfit and his eyes are constantly looking around as soon as he appears, which makes him seem very clever.

As he appeared, Li Hanqiang also received a system notification that 50 silver coins had been deposited into his account.

"So you're the Chaos City Lord here? I only came because I saw your character's name, huh? If you don't level up quickly, I'm not letting you off the hook!"

The adventurer quickly spotted Li Hanqiang. He raised his bow and arrow and revealed his attributes: his nickname was "Dark Night Redemption," his class was "Dark Ranger," and his level was 2.

"Welcome, welcome, a warm welcome!" Li Hanqiang was overjoyed; he'd just gotten himself into a trap!

"Weren't you supposed to be guarding the city? Where is your Chaos City? What is this place? Could this be Chaos City?"

Dark Night Redemption asked in confusion. In his mind, this small ruin in front of him should not be associated with such a prestigious name as "Chaos City".

Li Hanqiang thought for a moment, but found no way to explain it. He sighed and said, "Please explore this for yourselves, players."

"Wow, so arrogant!"

Dark Night Redemption rolled his eyes, but didn't ask any more questions. He started to seriously observe his surroundings.

Li Hanqiang felt that this guy was probably not a good-for-nothing.

Before long, two more beams of light descended, transforming into a man and a woman on the two chaotic stone slabs behind Dark Night Redemption. The man was tall and the woman was alluring. One was a knight and the other a priest, both at level two.

Both players' attributes were publicly displayed: the male player was called "Fan Knight" and the female player was called "Top Star." They waved to each other and seemed quite happy when they appeared.

Li Hanqiang received another gold coin, and in a good mood, he moved closer to the two men and said four words: "Welcome!"

Just then, a thunderclap resounded, and a light flashed from the distant spacetime wormhole. A regional announcement followed: "The first wave of monster attacks on Chaos City No. 68 has begun!"

"Regional Announcement: The siege monsters will advance along the War Corridor, touching the Heart of Chaos to steal Chaos Energy. When the Heart of Chaos's Chaos Energy reaches zero, the defense will be considered lost. All defending players will receive a huge experience reward upon successfully repelling the monster siege. If the defense fails, the levels of all defending players will be reduced, and Chaos City and its Lord will be subject to further penalties."

"System prompt: During the monster siege, players, except for the Chaos City Lord, cannot leave the Chaos Stone Tablet (which will be removed after the monster siege ends). They are also protected by the Chaos Stone Tablet and are protected from being attacked by the siege monsters."

"System notification: During the monster siege, there is a small chance of random events or special monsters spawning. The number of invading monsters is large. All players participating in the siege mission, please prepare for defense. The monster siege countdown is now starting: 10, 9, 8..."

Li Hanqiang felt the ground beneath his feet tremble slightly, and when he looked at the swirling and twisting shape of the time-space wormhole, he immediately felt a sense of tension.

The three adventurer players also calmed down at this moment. They had never heard of a penalty for failing to defend the city.

The system countdown ended quickly, followed by a thunderous boom that exploded in the sky. The earth trembled violently, and the space-time wormhole rapidly expanded, like a giant beast slowly opening its gaping maw, from which countless roars emanated, sending chills down one's spine!

The siege monsters are about to appear.

Li Hanqiang's heart tightened, and his eyes were fixed on the spacetime wormhole. He saw a group of black pigs squealing and snorting as they emerged from the wormhole.

Those black pigs were only slightly larger than pugs, with short limbs, chubby and silly-looking, which made them look somewhat cute. However, there were quite a few of them, forming a dense, black mass that surged up the war corridor like a black tide.

[Little Black Pig: Level 1, Health 10-30, each pig can steal 1 point of Chaos Energy from the Heart of Chaos.]

Dark Night Redemption couldn't hold back any longer and burst into laughter, pointing at the approaching herd of pigs and saying, "These are the siege monsters? Hahaha, I'm laughing my head off! What Chaos City? It's just a small ruin! What siege monsters? They're just a bunch of little black pigs!"

The Fan Knight and the A-list Star also laughed. The Fan Knight said, "Hilarious, truly hilarious. I was startled when I heard the regional announcement, but I didn't expect the siege monsters to be such trash!"

"Don't be careless, everyone," Li Hanqiang warned. "Although the little black pigs are of low grade, there are many of them. Don't get knocked over."
