173: Chapter 173 Day 8, First Kill Reward

“Dammit, if you want to build a city, build it, why make an announcement? You woke me up.”

“Doesn't District One only have two thousand people? How did they build a city so quickly?”

“It's so strange. We got a prompt saying we need to build a certain level of city walls to activate the ruin blueprints. Could it be that they've already finished building the city walls?”

“Probably. I don't know how they cut the Wood so fast.”

“My progress here is still very slow, the Wood isn't sturdy enough, so I can't build by brute force.”

“Are you stupid? Can't you use the Wood from the supplies?”

“The Wood in the supplies is too thin, it's not suitable for building city walls.”

“Just make do with it. With so many people, can't we block an NPC attack?”

“But there are also player attacks in the second stage. Aren't you afraid of being ganged up on by other Players?”

“Pfft... Ganged up on by Players? Do you think you're china?”

“That's true.”

“...”

Chen Fan was amused and helpless.

However, this did reveal an important piece of information.

Other Players were actually using Wood to build city walls.

That stuff wouldn't even need missiles; a volley from dozens of Single-barrel Naval Guns would shatter it instantly.

Chen Fan's eyes flashed slightly.

In that case, couldn't he settle old scores and exact revenge?

He wouldn't forget the incident where District 9999 ganged up on him earlier.

“Just you wait. Once the sea areas are opened, I will definitely find you.”

Chen Fan snorted coldly and returned to the aircraft carrier to rest.

There was still some time until 12 o'clock.

Only by resting well could he better welcome the battle.

Looking at The Five Women lying on the bed, Chen Fan smiled slightly.

With one on each side, top, and bottom, he slept happily.

12:00.

[Ding!]

[Stage One has begun, the siege troops are about to arrive. Please prepare, Players.]

An announcement woke all the Players up.

“Dammit, stop sleeping! The city hasn't been built yet.”

“We're screwed, we're screwed. How did I sleep until 12 o'clock?”

“Where's the boss? Boss! Boss, where are you?”

“Stop howling upstairs! Hurry up and summon the Crew Member to the shallows.”

Like a camp under attack, the Players rushed onto the deck in a panic.

At the first moment, all the Players' eyes focused on the aircraft carrier parked in the center of the inner sea.

Seeing the thin figure standing on the flight deck of the aircraft carrier, their hanging hearts finally settled.

Chen Fan patted his forehead speechlessly:

“What's with the chaos? What kind of behavior is this! If the enemy were really attacking, is this how you'd prepare to face them?”

A stern shout made the Players scratch their heads in shame.

Chen Fan continued: “Everyone, turn the warship around and face the exit. Send all Crew Member to the east city wall.”

After being scolded by Chen Fan, the Players finally calmed down to check the information.

Upon seeing it, they were immediately shocked.

It turned out that after they fell asleep, the boss had already built the city and the city walls completely.

After sighing with emotion again in their hearts, everyone replied “Yes” in unison and then began to work.

The first wave of the offensive arrived quickly.

Twenty-four whirlpools appeared in all directions of the island.

Teams of sea monsters crawled out of the whirlpools and headed towards the island.

Without needing Chen Fan's command, the two thousand Players mobilized their Crew Member one after another and began to face the enemy from all sides.

Sea monsters are different from humans; humans need fulcrums to climb cliffs.

But sea monsters can invade from all directions using just their tentacle.

In the east and west directions, because Chen Fan had set up enough arrow towers and turret towers, it was enough to deal with these monsters.

The Crew Member focused their attention on the north and south directions.

The first round of sea monsters was quickly cleared.

All the Players breathed a sigh of relief.

“It doesn't seem that hard, it startled me.”

“Forget it, if the boss hadn't set up so many arrow towers, these monsters would definitely have landed.”

“So what if they landed? Such weak monsters, they'd be shot dead with a few arrows.”

“Then what if they hide and sneak into your bed while you're sleeping?”

“Uh... then it's better not to let them land.”

“...”

The Players joked with each other while controlling the Crew Member to start searching the island.

Until the last sea monster was killed, the system sound rang again.

[Region: District One. Successfully withstood the first wave of the offensive.]

[Reward for all Players in District One: Gold Coins x1w. Common Supplies x5k.]

Chen Fan raised an eyebrow.

There was actually a supply reward for the first stage. Was this to make up for the fact that Players couldn't pick up supplies in the Daytime Instance?

It's just that he didn't know if only the first place got it, or if all regions got it.

Waiting for a moment, more and more regions also successfully withstood the first wave.

[Region 10010 received rewards: Gold Coins x1k. Common Supplies x500.]

[Region 10086 received rewards: Gold Coins x1k. Common Supplies x500.]

...

“Holy shit, why?”

“The first place gets ten times more than the ones behind? You heartless dog system!”

“The strength of these NPC monsters is very low. It is recommended that next time they appear, everyone swarms up to kill them and grab the first-kill reward.”

“Good idea, our region will charge next time!”

“Charge +1!”

“Charge +10086!”

Seeing others' rewards, Chen Fan was suddenly happy.

Sure enough, it had to be a first kill. The nature of this game is that the first kill gets the meat and soup, while the rest gnaw on the pot.

But while happy, Chen Fan squinted and searched through the system messages.

After searching for a long time, he finally found the message that District 9999 had passed in the pile of messages.

“That's not right, why are they so slow in their region?”

“Could it be that they are up to some tricks again?”

Chen Fan pinched his chin and pondered.

Soon, the second wave of the offensive arrived.

Other region Players, having learned from the first wave, drove their patrol boat out of the island while broadcasting.

Their goal was to surpass District One, become the first region to pass, and get massive rewards.

After District 1 Players discovered their actions, they exclaimed:

“Boss, should we go out too?”

“Yeah Boss, we can't let them grab the first kill!”

“...”

Chen Fan pondered for a moment and shook his head:

“We have few people, so we should focus on stability. After all, if we die in the dungeon, we will be logged out directly. We can't afford to lose.”

Once these words were spoken, the Players immediately fell silent.

Although they were unwilling, they all understood that Chen Fan was right.

So, they could only watch helplessly as more and more regions went to the whirlpool to encircle and suppress.

Just as they were cursing.

Suddenly, the whirlpool began to rotate wildly.

A giant, a hundred meters tall with a body as hard as iron, crawled out from the whirlpool.

On the giant's shoulder, it carried a huge battle axe.

Just after coming out of the whirlpool, it saw a vast number of patrol boat surrounding it.

“Roar —”

The giant roared, and the giant axe in its hand swung down fiercely.

Boom —

With one axe blow, over a dozen patrol boat were instantly smashed to pieces.

“Mommy, we're screwed! So terrifying!”

“Run, Brothers, run!”

“Damn it, who was the idiot who said there was no danger? Come here, I won't hit you.”

The Players were howling in misery as they were chopped up.

What's even worse is that when the first giant completely crawled out of the whirlpool.

A second giant carrying a giant axe poked its head out of the whirlpool again.
