Chapter 863: Chapter 103: Crisis Emerges · Development of Flash Spear City_4
"Even the light over there is dazzling and capable of attracting the attention of the gods. I suggest that our grand expedition army gathers at Flash Spear City as well."
Su Li’s eyebrows raised in surprise: "This progress really exceeds my expectations."
Oliver confidently replied: "This is the effect of multiple factors combined. First of all, it benefits from the current scale and foundation of the Territory, which can provide strong support for city construction. In the early phase, there were over 1000 dwarf engineers and more than 800 ogre construction teams fully participating, a condition that Heisen City last year couldn’t possibly compare to."
"Moreover, we already have a very mature set of experiences and procedures; from bureau to engineers, from contractors to construction teams, all are extremely skilled and more resourceful in building cities. With coordinated development, our construction speed far surpasses that of the past."
"As long as the Radiant Competition Festival ends, the influx of massive crowds into Flash Spear City will quickly solidify the local population. Currently, subtracting the construction population, the population of Flash Spear City is about 2000, but then it will quickly surge to over 5000 people."
The rise of the second city with a population of 5000 does indeed favor the rapid expansion of Hesse Territory. By then, commercial trade in the villages and towns of this area can directly reach Flash Spear City, without having to travel hundreds of miles to Heisen City or Blue Mirror Castle.
We must understand that Flash Spear City is newly built, but the surrounding land is not barren; around it, there are numerous human settlements conquered by Marshal Oliver.
There is even a small town already formed, which is the territory of a Kingdom Knight, with a population of over 1400 and three affiliated villages.
These settlements and territories will later be integrated into Flash Spear City, forming an economic influence system of city, town, and village levels.
However, as Hilude and Oliver mentioned, regardless of how tense the situation is, we must maintain a stable mindset and first successfully hold the Radiant Competition Festival!
So Su Li waved his hand and said: "Do not release this intelligence yet. At present, maintaining the Territory’s focus and enthusiasm for the Radiant Competition Festival is most important; nothing should affect our grand event."
Hilude nodded and said: "That’s right. Lord, tomorrow is also a very important day; tomorrow, the Official Knight category will also determine its champion."
"The arena has already given them much attention; it’s decided to complete their finals before conducting competitions of other categories."
The Official Knight is a legitimate member of the Empire’s ruling class, somewhat analogous to a scholar or a graduate lord.
Therefore, their competition deserves to occupy the most important stage, delaying the quarter-finals of other categories for them.
This is quite advantageous for Su Li; his time can be more relaxed. He then smiled and said: "Good, organize tomorrow’s competition well, and half of this festival is done. As long as we maintain this enthusiasm, undoubtedly, our influence has already formed."
Tomorrow’s rewards will be even richer. The champion, known as the Rising Sun Light, will receive a perfect-grade weapon and 50 Golden Crowns. The runner-up will receive a refined-level Star Iron Armor and 30 Golden Crowns.
Such generous rewards will significantly enhance the reputation of the Territory in producing advanced military equipment.
After all, that’s a perfect-grade weapon, something that the Official Knight category doesn’t ordinarily have access to.
