19 Taking A Risk (2/2)

Even then, it wouldn't be long until she started struggling like the rest. Luna decided to make his move, heading down along with Sura, he issued his first order during this whole operation, ”Everyone, fall back! Go rest! We'll buy you 6 hours of respite.” everybody listened without hesitation, they know they had to make use of this time to recover.

Everything was going a bit better than planned so far, initially the plan was for them to resist for 7 hours, but if they could go for longer, then they would go ahead and do that. So far the people who were level 20, hit level 22.

Luna and Sura were already infinitely close to 22 to begin with, were now level 23, in a few hours of non-stop grinding, they would hit level 24. The rest who weren't level 20 yet, were already level 19, not long after, they would hit level 20 as well.

With this in mind, Luna decided to sub in so they could rest for 6 hours. While the Luna-Sura duo could definitely go for much longer than this, they wanted to stay in top shape for the end-wave.

With the 16 small territories that would mean 48 of the variant zombie they had aptly named the <Tank Variant>. As for what the medium territory would bring, that was still a mystery.

Things went as planned, and before the 6 hours was up the duo flipped over the barricades, and started clearing the zombies in droves. As soon as the time was up, and noticing that Boni and the rest might get overwhelmed, Luna decided to have them wait behind the first gate instead.

With that command, the first line was destined to fall. All was still according to plan.

The moment the zombies were rushing to attack the first gate, Apple started casting Lightning Cloud on cooldown until she dropped down to 10% mana, before she sat down to recover again. Sparky, who wasn't limited by stamina, kept shooting at the zombies.

Hour 19.

All the waves have long spawned at this point, everybody at this point was level 20 or higher, which made the defense incredibly easier.

Everybody was happy, despite being pushed back to the innermost gate, and even with all the <Tank Variants>, they weren't too worried, as long as they had Luna and Sura on their side.

They were almost there, it took some kiting but eventually, they took everything down.

<CONGRATULATIONS! <Sovereign Nation> has officially conquered XXXX> the same notice rang out 16 times, congratulating them for conquering a small territory with the corresponding territory's name on it.

Luna received a total of 1,600,000 VIS.

<Sovereign Nation> received a total of 3,200,000 VIS

Everybody started cheering. Until Luna suddenly spoke up.

”Wait.. we got the notice for the small territories. We never got anything for the Medium one.”

Everybody was surprised, not knowing what to say, when Apple suddenly spotted a little girl about to turn the corner towards the base from where the first gate used to be. Boni who had his back turned didn't notice her in time.

”BONI WATCH OUT!” Apple shouted out the moment she saw the little girl do a mad sprint towards Boni, but the girl was too fast.
