Chapter 1911: Valov’s Preparations

Valov Town

They had been monitoring Alterra’s movements and had been trying to time the wars well. At the same time, they continuously prepared for an inevitable war, regardless of cost.

While Alterra was busy getting its satellites to attack others, Valov was producing and procuring equipment.

By this time, every one of their fighters was fully equipped with at least one complete set of Class D equipment (which wasn’t too difficult as they were a black metal processing territory).

Their powerhouses and team leads were also equipped with at least Class C weapons, and they gathered a small mountain of resources in their territory.

They also had ample stocks of potions, including buff potions, making sure each ranked guard had plenty of them. They bought off everything the pharmacy could stock in a day, and their alchemists had been working nearly non-stop for the past month.

They found out that Alterra somehow did not lack things like this, and they needed to match or exceed them in the battle of attrition.

They also did their best to investigate all of Alterra’s strategies, making sure they wouldn’t fall victim like the others had. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

They did not think of this at first; it felt rather offensive to do so before. However, upon a little more investigation, they knew that the Town really couldn’t be underestimated.

This was especially true after special potions and tools appeared more in the market, and they knew Alterra had a lot of hidden cards.

Unlike others, Valov had a relatively intelligent administrative group, so they adjusted quickly, focusing on learning more about the strategies they came up with.

It wasn’t easy, of course. There were eyes and ears everywhere in Alterra, and a lot of their investigators ended up in dungeons.

Many of them were still there, in fact.

So, they could only gather bit by bit, hoping not to trigger some alarms. The most successful they had was using Terran slaves. Of course, their commands had to be extremely detailed, lest someone secretly sent a message.

They were asked to gather intel, innocently, without revealing anything.

Among their first Terran slave, there was one who had tried to send a secret message. The man was dressed as a refugee who roamed around in the market, catching gossip with other people.

Who’d have thought that he had snuck a message in? It was fortunate that some of their existing spies were there and monitoring their performances and caught this act, bumping into them, getting the message.

The message was a warning that Valov was attacking soon. He somehow found a loophole in the command, which they later had to rectify.

Of course, that slave was now rotting in the Valov dungeons.

This also served as a warning to the other slaves who wanted to get creative.

Anyway, they found out a lot of things through this method, and they formulated ways to counter them.

For example, the infamous Beast War—where Alterra used the upgrade beast mobs to halve the five-village alliance—was impossible to do again, at least not any time soon.

At best, they could use some of their superior beast-attracting potions, but Valov had already gathered beast-repelling potions to counter theirs. Even if the enemy potions were superior, they could battle them with quantity!

With these, as well as the aforementioned equipment, Valov drained a large portion of its money. Alterra should be honored! And this was also why they must get it!

For other strategies, like Alterra building moats and traps, these wouldn’t mean much against brute force. They just had to have enough of that and position them well.
