A trip to the second dimension

After the high-end forces of Hope joined the battle on the East Wall, it was obvious that the balance of victory had tilted.

Having said that, it was not a fight between dozens of people at the village entrance. The battle of thousands of enemies lasted for a long time.

After the defense line of the East Wall gradually stabilized, the Arabs who had previously invaded the city had been cleared out.

The next thing to do was to stabilize the defense line. As things have developed to this point, this battle to defend the city can be regarded as a victory of more than half.

Except for the Arabs on the East Wall who still attacked the Steel City in a unified manner because they accepted the final order, the Arab armies on the other two walls gradually dispersed. As time went by, the density of the Arabs around them became sparser and sparser.

Slowly, the sky was already dark.

The bright searchlights on the city wall were turned on, illuminating the shadowy Arab figures outside the city wall below.

It was now eight o'clock in the evening. After a day of high-intensity fighting, the Arab army outside the city wall was no longer as dark and scary as before.

But even so, there are still at least a few hundred Arabs hanging around outside the city.

Most of these Arabs are concentrated on the north and west walls, because the east wall, because of the final order, although the battle is the most intense, it is indeed the place where the Arabs are cleaned up the cleanest.

Hope is still standing on the city wall at this time, but it is no longer on the east wall, but on the north wall where the remaining Arabs are the most.

Standing with Hope is Steve, who has taken off his helmet.

After a day of fighting, both of them are very tired at this time.

Because of the existence of the space backpack, Hope can change clothes with one click, and the appearance looks okay.

There are patches of blood stains on Steve's battle clothes, and some places are injured. After drinking the healing potion, the damaged clothes can still be seen.

"What are you thinking about?"

Steve let out a long breath, took off the shield from his hand, and leaned on the parapet at his feet.

"Nothing, just thinking about the future."

Hope glanced at Steve, and then looked back at the group of tired soldiers on the city wall next to him.

The place where they are fighting now is not in a good image. There is not only blood all over the ground, but also many broken limbs and arms.

The battle has basically stopped at this time. You can see that many civilians have climbed up the wall and are cleaning the battlefield.

The bodies of soldiers and monsters should be handled separately, and the damaged and lost weapons should be collected again. In short, it is a big project.

But even so, both the soldiers and the group of civilians who voluntarily stayed as war logistics are now very excited.

After all, there is no doubt that this defense war is another victory that humans have won after so many years, and they can't show it like this.

The city is brightly lit at this time, and the daytime battle has long been passed on by word of mouth or notices on bulletin boards.

This is great news, which can greatly improve the morale of the human side, so it naturally cannot be hidden.

It is said that if the food outside has not been completely cleaned up, the city would have held a celebration banquet long ago.

"Lord Hope!"

Behind him, several civilians who were handling logistics passed by. When they saw Hope and Steve, they all greeted them excitedly.

Hearing this, Hope turned around and smiled and nodded at them.

After those people left, Hope turned around and looked at the slowly moving shadows under the city wall, saying: "We will guard tonight, and when tomorrow morning comes, we will be able to organize people to go out and clear out those Arabs who are still wandering outside the city. At that time, this battle will be over."

"I'm a little curious. I remember you and I said that because of the influence of the laws in your world, monsters below the bear level have no ability to attack the city. Today we have solved the three bear-level Arab commanders, right? Then why do we still need such a high-intensity defense and night watch?"

Steve asked curiously about his confusion.

"Because the war is not over yet. As long as the bear-level monsters start to attack the city, a territorial offensive and defensive war will begin. In this war, as long as one side has not been completely defeated, we will always be affected by the law. The monsters on the monster side can also attack and break the city at any time, so just in case, we can't take it lightly now."

"In addition, even if we are not in a state of war, the soldiers still have to be wary of monsters sneaking into the city. Because the existence of this law only applies to the territorial disputes between humans and monsters. This does not mean that other low-level monsters cannot enter the town without the existence of bear-level monsters."

"But even if they enter the town, as long as the war at the law level is not started, the human territory will not be occupied."

Hearing this, Steve pointed thoughtfully at the black land at the foot of the city wall and asked: "Is the black place over there the monster territory?"

"Yes, if we lose this time, the monster territory over there will cover it and swallow up the Steel City and a large area around it. In the monster territory, humans will be suppressed, while the monsters will be strengthened instead."

Hope nodded and said, "Even if it's not a territorial war, we can't be careless. Monsters have sneaked into the city before, causing civilian casualties."

"Anyway, we won this war. To be honest, it was much smoother than I thought. Thank you for your reinforcements this time. If you need me for anything in the future, you can always come to me."

Hope's smile gradually bloomed as he spoke, and he seemed to be relieved and said, "I seem to have suppressed myself too much some time ago. I always thought about how difficult today's war would be. Until now, I finally feel much more relaxed."

"Although it's hard to say, I feel like I know how to go on. I have some ideas about these things in my world. If it's feasible, maybe our people will live safer and easier in the future." Hope said, and looked up at the sky again.

The night sky of the steam world is still bright, just like Hope's heart at this time.

"That means you will take a good rest in the future and slow down the speed of crossing?" Steve asked.

"No, I want to see more of other unknown worlds. Besides, I am very relaxed now. The future travel is not only for this world, but also for myself."

"After all, travel seems to be very interesting..."
