significantly." A soft voice spoke as moonbeams danced around her."As a newly promoted deity, I've presented such a grand gift! It's like a vacation for me. Let me give you some more energy to plunder..........

Regardless of who wins or loses on the battlefield, the next step is to march east and break through the gates of the misty city. This is undeniable.

Recent turmoil, with everything in ruins, has left the eastern territories shrouded in the clouds of war. Despair hangs heavy in the air.

If the lower layer's situation deteriorates, the upper layer will need more turns to set the stage and face more negative events.

However, Lu Cheng, who had already made up his mind to launch the Era Cards, did not directly invest in production or defense. Instead, he played a [Spring Festival] card, which restored some confidence to the people of Dongling.

This tactic unexpectedly accelerated the integration speed of resources.

......

......

In the mysterious hall, a table was quickly set up.

It took dozens of rounds just to count the card decks.

The main resources of Dongling include:

A golden 5-star defense deck 【Mist City】. It includes two 【Mist City Wall】 and one 【Fog Citadel】, as well as the gold 5-star legion 【Shadow Walker Legion】. Notably, Mist City's ruler is an assassin who has transcended her rank and possesses combat ability.

It can be used to hold back extradimensional warfare, but it's clearly insufficient to stop the sanctuaries or celestial armies of the Restoration Era, like those of the Heavenly Saint Empire.

Lu Cheng had already planned this. This would require a large investment and card upgrades. After the Huaxia Civilization Ecosystem was completed, he would create an ultra-heavy defense card group: "The Great Wall."

The Golden Five-Star ascends to the Golden Ten, projecting a Great Wall with eight passes. A total of eight pass cards are issued, each guarded by a top-tier cardmaster from the Eastern Territory. This will be the gateway to the Eastern Territory.

This is the biggest investment, almost spending all of the "break-up fees". Once it's completed, the defense will surpass that of [Troy] and [Jerusalem].

It just takes a long number of turns to upgrade, and it requires the technology [Three Hundred Schools of Thought].

This is the front deck, the heart of battle!

Next are the replenish cards.

Very few!

Two fleets, the Northern Sea Fleet and the Ghost Fleet, have the highest production capacity. [The Grand Voyage] can bring about energy output of around 6 stars and also bring random events and technologies.

From 【Huaguo Mountain】 to 【Qianji City】, the energy output is approximately 4 stars, and it can provide the technology 【Tian Gong Kai Wu】.

The Tian Dao Arena, the West Coast battle has made a name for itself, now the income is completely legitimate and the production capacity is about 2 stars.

Sunflower has a 【Sky Garden】 that produces about 5-star energy.

Rose Prince has a [Crimson Manor] that produces more than Gold 4 stars, but she is currently recovering.

The Arcane Tempest's 【Mage City】 hasn't been repaired yet, and its production capacity is currently negative. However, with the Librarian sealed, a 【Forbidden Tome】 is being constructed, so there are promising prospects for the future.

And while [Dongling Magic Academy] and [Hogwarts] also have negative production capacity, they can provide magical technology.

That's all there is...

Especially the mayor of Fog City, this elder sister is basically completely unproductive.

......

After the real discussion, Lu Cheng found that the problems were smaller than he imagined, but far greater than he imagined.

Promoting 【Mist City】 to 【Great Wall】, this key milestone objective is easier than expected.

As observers have returned to the pool, the Era of Gods is about to slumber. The forging of Heaven and Earth will replace [List of Gods], immersing itself in the Spring and Autumn period, drawing out the [Third Hundred Schools Forum].

And with enough severance pay on hand to fell the 【Light Forest】 and split one-third of the national treasury, plus the foundation of a 5-star gold card, it should be enough to complete the construction of the 【Great Wall】 before the first wave of troops arrives.

Relying on the [Great Wall] as a foundation, it grinds down its opponents, borrowing from the Trojan model. It consumes enemy cards at the front while maintaining pressure-free cultivation in the rear, gradually filling out background ecological cards and awakening the epochal card [Extraordinary Immortal Qin Empire]. It shifts from defense to offense, using stillness to overcome motion!

But why are the challenges greater than anticipated

Because with current production capacity, it would be impossible to activate the Gold 10 Star Defense Deck even if we saved up for a lifetime. The Third Hundred Schools Competition combined with the Taboo Diagram... how much production capacity expansion could it possibly bring That remains unknown....

Can we get the Dongling to activate once with the Great Wall, wiping out the enemy vanguard within ten thousand miles of smoke and fire This is paramount.......

If this plan succeeds, the nascent Eastlands will be reduced to ash beneath the iron hooves of the paladins!
