The next second, the long-lost system prompt sound entered Leo Ray’s ears.

[You consumed Stone x72000, Iron Ore x60000, Obsidian x3000, Dark Magic

Crystal XIOO]

[Guardian Defense Mechanism LV3 is upgrading, please wait…]

Under the deep blue night sky, the light curtain surrounding the Miracle

Building was like a vivid aurora, making people feel refreshed and invigorated.

While waiting, Leo Ray first accepted Silas Brooks, Xavier Perry, and Cheyenne Hamilton’s friend requests.

Then, he directly went to the Shadow Squad’s Fortress Barracks that he visited in the afternoon.

Climbing the staircase to the second floor of the fortress, Leo Ray noticed.

At this moment, the staircase leading to the city wall on the second floor had been fully completed.

Only a few Shadow Squad soldiers were still polishing the newly completed stair steps.

Upon closer inspection, the staircase, which still had the fresh smell of concrete, was thick but not steep.

The width of the staircase was the same as the entrance, allowing at least three fully armed soldiers to advance side by side.

As such, in the event of an emergency, the subordinates in the fortress could undoubtedly quickly climb the city wall to defend, which is quite impressive.

“Greetings, Lord!”

On the other side, seeing Leo Ray arrive, a few Tier Second soldiers immediately stood up and saluted, respectfully saying in unison.

Waving his hand slightly to signal everyone to work normally, Leo Ray walked up the staircase and continued his inspection.

Just like that, he stepped onto the newly constructed city wall today, a cool breeze immediately blew at his face, refreshing and invigorating, Leo squinted and looked around.

He saw the soldiers working on the crenellations on the city walls throughout the territory, which was an orderly scene.

And many places had already built some unfinished low walls.

Seeing this, Leo responded to the greetings of the soldiers around him while looking down at the outside of the city wall.

With the help of the night vision effect from the Star Pupil, Leo noticed.

The first thing that appeared around the territory was a huge 3m* 3m trench.

Then, a large number of thick and sharp abatis were arranged, followed by the vast forest.

At this moment, standing high above the ground, Leo looked at everything in front of him and couldn’t help but feel emotional.

Without a doubt, whether it’s the Lord’s Mansion that now resembles a castle, the two stunning Miracle Buildings, or the city wall surrounded by 50 fortresses.

Compared to the lonely little wooden hut at the beginning, his entire territory had undergone earth-shaking changes.

It could now be considered a heavily defended military fortress.

Just as Leo sighed in his heart, his private message notifications started ringing one after another.

Opening the message detail, Leo saw that it was Silas Brooks, Xavier Perry, and Cheyenne Hamilton who had sent the messages.

It seemed that they had just recovered from their shock.

The content of the messages, aside from being surprised at Leo Ray’s real identity, expressing their shock and excitement, as well as various implicit and seemingly casual flattery.

Also, they all sternly claimed that, from now on, they support only Master Leo, and as for Anonymous, compared to Master Leo, it’s simply not worth mentioning…

Seeing this, Leo couldn’t help but laugh in helplessness while covering his face.

“Well, I didn’t expect my real identity to capture the supporters of my fake identity.”

“However, essentially speaking, these three people did not betray their faith.”

With a slight pout, Leo left the city wall and returned to the upgrading Guardian Defense Mechanism.

At this moment, the sound of automatic construction within the colorful light curtain had significantly weakened.

It seemed that the upgrade was entering its final stage.

As expected, the familiar sound soon rang out again.

[Congratulations, your Guardian Defense Mechanism has reached Lv: 4!]

At the same time, the dazzling colorful light curtain started to turn into weak light particles, like fireflies, disappearing into the vast night.

Looking at the significantly larger Guardian Defense Mechanism, Leo couldn’t help but exclaim as he paced around to observe.

Upon closer inspection, this originally regular hexagon-shaped building had turned into a regular octagon.

Each vertical wall of the structure had at least a three-meter-high gate, all of which were currently closed.

Moreover, the lower part of the building had changed from a stone structure to a full metal structure.

The metal patterns embedded on the surface had become more intricate, and a few special black crystal patterns had been added.

The combination of the two different textures made the entire building more mysterious and profound.

Under the reflection of the double moon, it emitted a peculiar deep blue cold light.

Seeing this, Leo opened the Attribute Column of the building with great anticipation.

[Guardian Defense Mechanism Lv: 4] [Owner: Leo Ray ‘ID: 0013076067’]

[Earth Guardians Number: 24/24]

[Building Special Effect One: Guardian Charging Iv4 ‘Can charge Earth Guardians, reducing charging time moderately’]

[Building Special Effect Two: Guardian Creation IV/+ ‘If an Earth Guardian is destroyed, a new one can be created (CD: 9h)’]

[Materials required for upgrading: Stone X150000, Iron Ore X120000, Obsidian x6000, Dark Magic Crystal x200]

Looking at the text in the Attribute Column, a hint of joy appeared on Leo Ray’s face.

“Wow, I didn’t expect the number of Earth Guardians to increase from 18 to 24!”

Feeling delighted, Leo didn’t hesitate and went straight inside the upgraded Guardian Defense Mechanism.

Entering the Miracle Building, Leo noticed,

that this was still a spacious hall without any partitions; the smooth walls were covered with various patterns, emitting a faint blue light.

Originally there were 18 charging pods, which had also been increased to 24.

However, what was most eye-catching were the Earth Guardians themselves.

At this time, apart from the three Earth Guardians charging inside, six brand -new Earth Guardians stood proudly.

Furthermore, Leo could clearly feel, that the aura of each Earth Guardian was much more formidable than before.

These towering warriors, armed with heavy swords and shields, exuded an incredibly intimidating presence, giving people a strong sense of security.

Seeing this, with great anticipation, Leo directly opened the Attribute Column of one of the Earth Guardians..
