My Chaotic City

“Choose camps? Three empires, three camps…”

After thinking about it for a short while, Chun Sanyue responded to the system and chose to join the Red Dragon Empire.

[Ding, congratulations to the player for successfully joining the Red Dragon Empire Camp.]

[Ding, you have obtained the Empire Ranking in the Red Dragon Empire Camp. You are currently a soldier. You can improve your ranking by completing empire missions and gaining military achievement. The player can explore the specific details by themselves.]

[Ding, the Red Dragon Empire is delivering a void airship to your Chaotic City and it is expected to arrive at 0:00 on the 1st of September, 2069.]

As soon as the three system notifications were over, a glorious ray of light flashed in front of Chun Sanyue. A young monk who looked as if he had been carved out of jade[1] appeared from thin air.

The young monk had red dots on his eyebrows, his hands folded together as he wore a golden kasaya[2]. There was also a glowing Buddha ring behind his head. Although he looked like he was only four to five years old, he had an aloof personality.

There was no doubt that this was his Chief Officer.

Chun Sanyue quickly checked the attribute information of his Chief Officer.

—

Name: Huixin

Level: 1

Occupation: Chief Officer

Camp: Red Dragon Empire

Loyalty: 50

Character: Timid

Hit Points: 100

Talent Ability: Persuasion, Chief Officer Huixin oversees the Chaotic City and has a very small chance to directly instigate the monsters attacking the city to join the Chaotic City instead.

—

“A young monk? And his character is actually timid!” Chun Sanyue frowned slightly, not very satisfied by this.

It was said that the image of the Chief Officer was randomly created by the system. Random images of fantasy, magic, and science fiction were all possible and he himself would have liked a model of beauty, fairies, female secretaries, or so on. How did he end up getting a young monk?

But the young monk had a very good talent.

The young monk Huixin politely nodded to Chun Sanyue and said, “Honorable City Lord, little monk Huixin is here to report and willingly serve you.”

“OK!” Chun Sanyue nodded, looking just like a leader as he said, “Tell me, what can you do?”

“I am a Chief Officer so naturally, I have all the functions of a Chief Officer. The Chaotic City has just been built and there are a thousand things that must be done. I will facilitate the construction of the ‘City Defense Center’ as many tasks can be refreshed in the City Defense Center. After the completion of the tasks, lots of rewards can be gained, such as unlock the Stone Slab technology, obtaining migrants, constructing walls, opening up territories, and so on. The City Lord can hand over the tasks of city defense and internal affairs to me.” The young monk Huixin spoke in the voice of a four or five-year-old child but had the serious expression of a young adult on his face.

Chun Sanyue nodded and said, “Then you should go to work quickly. Don’t think you can be lazy just because you are a child. I will fire you if you cannot perform!”

The face of the young monk Huixin quickly turned pale. “City Lord, please feel reassured as I will go to work now.”

He glanced around and said, “Oh, City Lord, there is no workforce right now. If it’s just me alone, it will take three days to build the City Defense Center!”

“Three days? Don’t be a slacker. I, the City Lord, will only give you two days. The City Defense Center must be built in two days and there will be no room for discussion, or else…” Chu Sanyue[3] was used to being a bully and was about to say things like I will deduct your salary and so on. However, he suddenly remembered that the young monk in front of him was not his own staff, so he waved his hand and said, “If you can’t build it in two days, I will throw you to the monsters attacking the city and let them kill you!”

Huixin was frightened by this as tears started to flow. He quickly said, “I will work hard, I will work hard!”

After saying that, he immediately ran towards the back of the Chaos’ Core and pouted on his little ass while drawing patterns on the ground with his fingers.

[Ding, the Chaos City Building, ‘City Defense Center’ has been unlocked.]

[Ding, your Chief Officer is drawing the ‘City Defense Center Summoning Circle’. The estimated time of completion is 48 hours.]

Chun Sanyue laughed proudly as he heard the system notifications.

All Chief Officers had their own personalities. To put it bluntly, they were the equivalent of virtual humans and would all have their own slippery human habits. With that in mind, some management methods were required. As he observed, casually frightening the young monk had actually improved his work efficiency?

Chun Sanyue secretly felt he was wise as he stood next to the young monk Huixin just to scared him around with his harsh tone without doing anything else.

With young monk Huixin’s timid personality, his work efficiency really had improved despite the tears in his eyes. The completion time for the City Defense Center Summoning Circle was rapidly shortened…

After filling his stomach, Li Hanqiang disbanded the group of gremlins beside the War Corridor as soon as he went online.

These little gremlins had not left the Chaotic Stone Slabs while he was offline, playing on the Stone Slabs by pushing around the wheelbarrow and doing somersaults. Li Hanqiang sent them all back to the Cave Dwelling in Gremlin’s Mountain.

The fact was that he was actually a little disappointed. The little gremlins failed to change jobs even after three waves of monster attacks! He was originally looking forward to a few of the little gremlins changing into either Little Drill Gremlins or Little Thunder Gremlins.

When he reached the Blue Ripple Pond, he saw five of the ten little gremlins dozing, two of them doing somersaults while another one was practicing his handstand. The remaining two were simply releasing all the small fishes they had caught.

“No way, no way. I have to observe these little gremlins while they are fishing or their efficiency will be too low!” Li Hanqiang sighed.

Players could fish idly but the little gremlins could not fish when they were dozing off. With their mischievous personalities, if nobody paid attention, half of the time they spent would be wasted on invalid fishing.

Li Hanqiang could not help but lecture the ten fishing gremlins. Later when he checked the system records, he saw that the little gremlins had actually released all the fishes caught. One of them was a Tyrant King Crab, an elite mount.

Whether releasing the fishes was equivalent to breeding them in the pond still needed to be verified. Now that he had missed an elite mount, Li Hanqiang felt like his heart was being stabbed by a knife. He could not help but single out and hit the little gremlin who had released the Tyrant King Crab.

He looked into the Fish Basket again, managing to get a blue grade River Clam Shell. This was actually a one-handed shield that could add 20 points of physical defense and magic resistance each. These attributes were considered as good as they could be.

There was also a Ceramic Jar, and its attribute information stated that it was a cultural relic. It had no actual usage but could be sold for 10 gold coins.

After Li Hanqiang threw the Ceramic Jar into the Mysterious Shop, the potion dealers finally arrived. The first one was Big Trader, followed by Little Liuzi.

The Deity Robber was the third person to teleport over to Li Hanqiang’s. He was looking around at his surroundings with his triangular eyes as he yawned.

Something was not quite right. Why were there so many free Chaotic Stone Slabs and only four Defensive Towers!

Had he not filled the Chaotic Stone Slabs by building Defensive Towers on them? How did that work?

The Deity Robber quickly discovered the Rocket Tower and Bright Lance Dark Arrow Tower. The two defensive towers had strange shapes, which made him very curious.

He did not recognize what kind of defensive towers they were and he could not see their attribute information. According to the information circulated during the closed beta testing, the level of defensive towers were related to their height. The height of first-level defensive towers was between 10 to 20 meters and the height of second-level defensive towers was between 20 to 30 meters.

According to that statement, these two new defensive towers were only first-level defensive towers.

“With the addition of another two first-level Defensive Towers, Li Hanqiang was able to defend against three waves of monster attacks?”

Deity Robber felt that this was a little unfathomable.

He absentmindedly purchased a large number of potions and received his subsidies from Li Hanqiang. However, he was not in a rush to leave, and instead he smiled while inching closer to Li Hanqiang and pointed at the Bright Lance Dark Arrow Tower. “Brother Qiang, what Defensive Tower is this? It looks very powerful.”

“This is an amazing tower!” Li Hanqiang waved. “You can come with me. I want to do an experiment!”

He took Deity Robber to the side of the Bright Lance Dark Arrow Tower and said, “Stand still and don’t move!”

Deity Robber did not know what was about to happen but he did as he was instructed. He kept looking at the Rocket Tower and the Bright Lance Dark Arrow Tower while making his own random guesses.

Li Hanqiang smiled as he pointed at the Bright Lance Dark Arrow Tower and said, “This Defensive Tower is known as the ‘Free Trip Back to the City Tower’!”
