After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 746

There were hundreds of guards and slaves (and counting) who managed to flow inside from various points of the territory. Naturally, except for some skeletal forces in other areas, the guards and brave citizens headed to the area to deal with the intruders.

Inside the walls, chaos ensued as the intruders entered the territory, aiming to destroy as much as they could.

Before, when torturing other villages, it was just fun. But now, they were extremely vindictive. They hated this territory to the core!

However, how easy could it be?

Would the Alterrans let them enter deep into the territory? Of course not!

They had only managed to get in due to sheer numbers—also of slaves, who they could just use as literal shields.

They couldn’t even get past 100 meters safely!

The others gasped and some of them were also hit by the arrows. Some were from sentries while some were from archers. The sentries were still more formidable though, as at the right angle it could skewer two or three people at a time! Because the roads were so wide, the damned weapons also had clearer paths to them!

Within this area, there were also archers from the houses’ balconies! The intruders were practically showered with weapons!

Unlike the programmed sentries, the humans could target them even with slaves up front.

The Alterrans felt guilty for killing poor slaves like this of course, but they could push the feelings down if it meant taking down an enemy aiming to destroy their home!

Either way, the human archers were still lower in level than their enemies, so unfortunately they couldn’t kill a lot. It was still the sentries that managed to take lives.

However, even if the more powerful ones didn’t die, their equipment was losing durability. They knew that if they stayed here, they’d be destroyed before they could even do damage to the territory!

"Get out of the range of the walls!" the team lead yelled, running deeper into the territory, hoping to get into more houses and out of the line of fire.

They used their numbers and charged forward, some were hit and some managed to hide within the crowd and the wall of slaves they surrounded themselves with.

The fact that they were mostly in avenues or on wide roads meant there were a lot of people left open, and it was incredibly annoying!

However, there were still many people who managed to escape and they gasped in relief, finding cover. While some were still hit by some citizens shooting from their balconies, the Guians were still stronger on average and didn’t die.

They celebrated too early though.

SWOOSH!

"Ahhhh!" One yelled as he was pierced by an arrow. Because they didn’t know where it came from, the ’slave shield’ didn’t work, thereby killing him.

The people next to him immediately backed away, looking around to determine where the heck it came from. Someone with sharp eyes studied the angle and saw an aesthetic tower not too far away.

He paled. "Sentries! They have sentries inside the territory!"
