Richard climbed high and looked into the distance.

He stood on the 20-meter-high wall and looked into the distance.

At the end of his line of sight, he could see the vast yellow sand.

The city wall was an irregular square shape that surrounded the territory.

The uneven battlements were half the height of a man, and soldiers could shoot from the depressions. They could use the protrusions to block arrows from below.

Not even a ballista could pierce through the sturdy city walls.

There were four city gates in total.

The sturdy stone door was like a mountain that could isolate everything, firmly closed.

To open the stone door, one had to turn the turntable behind the city wall and use the clever mechanism to make the stone door shrink to the left and right.

Richard held onto the battlements. Satisfaction shrouded his eyes.

Twilight City immediately gave him a different feeling–with the city walls.

It was like rootless duckweed that floated and had turned into a towering tree.

Richard seemed to have thought of something after some observation. He waved his hand to summon the level 12 alchemist Brown.

Richard waited for the gray-colored dwarf alchemist Brown that panted to come up to him and cut straight to the point without waiting for him to bow.

“Brown, get half the giant cannons to the city wall and set up the firing points.

“The rest will set up their positions behind the city wall.”

Cannons were not bows and arrows, and the power of a direct shot was mightier than that of a projectile from behind.

He even wanted to fill the four walls with alchemy cannons if possible.

This exaggeratedly powerful killing weapon was invincible against the ground troops.

Unfortunately, there were too few of them.

They could only carry the artillery fire out under certain conditions.

“Yes, my Lord, my Lord!”

Brown replied excitedly.

Now, he could finally receive orders around by himself and take on such a significant responsibility.

Richard nodded and continued to ask.

“How’s the production progress of natural alchemist’s bombs?”

The alchemy cannon was powerful, but its uttermost weakness was that it required sturdy logistics support.

It would empty his inventory in a few minutes if one could fire this thing without restraint.

Brown immediately replied.

“Lord, we will complete the alchemy workshop by tomorrow. The estimate is that it can produce 50 pills a day…”

“Fifty?”

Richard’s brow furrowed.

“Too small. We don’t have the time to accumulate slowly now.

“I need you to produce 1500 pills by the 15th.”

Richard looked at the other party, who seemed to want to say something else after he said that, and his tone became serious.

“This is an order!”

Brown immediately swallowed all his words.

He gritted his teeth and nodded.
