It could be said that the specifications of this city were already extremely high.

Coupled with novel magical methods, they were even higher than those of many frontline industrial cities in interstellar civilization.

Such a city could only be supported after the interstellar civilization reclaimed the Wutun Factory.

To these people who once lived in the Middle Ages, living in such a city was simply like dreaming.

Wherever Wizard Shen Yu's gaze landed, every soldier was filled with exceptionally high fighting spirit.

It stemmed from exactly this.

For instance, at this moment, standing on the city walls wearing a warrior's power armor, angrily glaring at the monsters outside the city—an ordinary soldier, Elson.

Originally, Elson was just an ordinary young man from a small town somewhere in the world.

Although there were retired old guards in the town who taught them body-strengthening magic, Elson's performance was merely mediocre.

If nothing unexpected happened, becoming a farmer, or a regular guard for a merchant caravan, was all Elson could hope for in life.

Until the Divine Punishment descended.

Suddenly, rain fell from the sky, filled with deadly poison.

At first, Elson and his brother were inside their house, lucky enough not to touch the poisonous rain, but his parents, who were working in the fields, died agonizingly under Divine Punishment.

He could never forget that painful day—the entire town was drowned in wailing.

Nor could he forget that day, when he and his brother were utterly hopeless, and a mage clad in heavy power armor appeared before them.

"From this day forward, you are all citizens of the Magic Emperor. You shall receive the Emperor's protection, shelter, and food."

With just those words, Elson, his brother, and all the other survivors left behind the world destroyed by the gods and came here.

At first, there was no such grand city, only makeshift shelters. They received ample clean food and warm enough clothes, doing nothing but labor in the mines.

Later, the great Magic Emperor sent numerous automated machines—yes, that was the name—which replaced their labor, yet in a very short time created such a city.

Everyone was assigned a clean, bright, warm, and safe room!

Even now, recalling those days, Elson's heart was still flooded with enormous shock and excitement.

It was the Emperor's gift—a true miracle!

Compared with this, what was the miracle that the gods and church once preached?

The mages said every day that it was the Evil God who wanted to destroy humanity, had ruined their homeland, and that the great Emperor would lead them to defeat the Evil God and protect their home.

"Come on, Evil God!"

Elson clutched the powerful weapon he'd trained to use for less than half a month, and looked at the swelling horde of monsters beyond the city walls—he felt no fear in his heart.

Anyone who had gone through such hell, and then received a heaven like this, would know no fear.

What's more, the great Emperor was right behind him!

Wizard Shen Yu's gaze swept over each and every warrior. Even though he had expected this, he was still a bit awed by the soldiers' fighting spirit.

Propaganda and provision—these were the reasons such fighting spirit was so astonishing.

Even divine spirits couldn't easily wrest away everything people cherished and leave them unwilling to resist.

"Open fire." Wizard Shen Yu commanded.

In an instant, vast amounts of artillery and beams of light thundered forth from the city, so dense they lit up even the horizon, endless firepower pounding into every monster.

No matter how strong their defenses, in such a barrage, survival was impossible.

Yet, some of the newly created monsters possessed strange powers.

For example, the undead.

Or more precisely, soul lifeforms similar to undead.

They had no physical bodies and could not be destroyed by attacks at the material level!

However, they soon faced the transformed magic warriors.

These warriors now possessed considerable martial arts cultivation, augmented by magic, and clad in drive magic armor. Even when facing divine-made monsters, they could still fight!

Wizard Shen Yu did nothing, just watched as the legions of the Magic Empire launched into a brutal melee against divine-made monsters on the bombarded earth.

Outside the city there were no space defense facilities like inside, so once the melee began, the warriors of the Magic Empire faced not only undead-type divine-made monsters, but also other kinds.

Still, with their drive magic armor and other weaponry from interstellar civilization, they could perform even better.

They operated in squads, sweeping the battlefield outside the city over and over again.

Elson, for example.

He wore power armor and, with his ten-man team, held a line of defense, responsible for clearing away enemies within a thousand-meter radius.

And in just a few days, he had already adapted to the rhythms of battle.

Sometimes the enemy was humanoid, its limbs edged with blades—easy to handle, just aim the laser cannon at its head to kill it.

Other times the enemy was a massive, beast-like creature with high-speed healing abilities. That was far more troublesome; you first had to smash its limbs, then continually burn it with searing flames.
