After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World

Chapter 477 Observers

Altera

Some time prior, just after Althea left, its citizens went on with their lives as usual within the safety of Altera's walls.

It was morning and about an hour or so before the standard working hours. Some people were hunting, some people were preparing for their work, and some were on a break for their 'spirits'.

This type of lifestyle by the way was something the Golds had only seen in nobles—there was no such thing as 'balanced lifestyle' for commoners at all.

Of course, people knew of the assistance alarm—though because it was so rushed and it was the first time, the territory didn't call out a mission for others to join in.

However, they all knew who was going there so they weren't really worried at all. If anything, they didn't want to slow down progress because of worry.

This was what the Golds observed while they hung around happily.

Of course, when Bleulle was also called for assistance, the citizens also handled it similarly. However, this was because Bluelle was already highly established and their guard team was one of the best (as Obi would remind them every so often).

Altera was a village. And it was amazing that it could already give such a sense of security to its citizens.

At the same time, it made sense because the force and defense level of this place was really town level and it might even be meeting the requirements for upgrade much sooner than anyone thought.

Regardless of what the requirements were, this meant that—at least for a while—Altera would be stable.

They knew this because Bleulle had been historically one of the fastest Villages to gain Town status, and it gained it only after a couple of years after its establishment.

This was because they had a very important resource sought after by everyone: The Blu. This allowed the territory to develop rapidly and gain important backers.

But how did Altera do it? With ingenuity, innovation, and unity.

Anyway, seeing such trust at the Village level was unprecedented and it was quite novel to witness it.

The people were so relaxed that children were still running around. Even Miss Althea's baby-mascots were being strolled around by two old women as if their parents weren't going to war somewhere else.

Speaking of kids, Olga could be said to have been attached to them, especially the children.

When she saw them with Ansel at that time, she often looked for them and actively joined in their morning walks.

The past few days, they met Beany, Theo's father, and the lovely Winona, who was Ms. Althea's Best friend and one of the leading proponents for the Re

In fact, it wasn't entirely just Drake. She found herself attracted to the manly and stable quality about them. Like true strength that came from within, one that didn't need to hover their power over others.

She pursed her lips and uttered it out, making the gossipy women make 'owh' faces, nodding in understanding.

"I see you have a type."

"Well, our guard team have plenty of those. Shall I arrange some blind dates?"

Olga's eyes twitched, though she wasn't as against the idea as she usually was.

Soon the bell rang, signifying the working hours started. Immediately, most of the people stood up and scuttled, heading to work or hunt or to train.

The Golds looked at each other and smiled, continuing in their vacation.

Otto stretched his arms. "I'm gonna go back to the Casino."

Obi immediately stood up, "I'm coming with you!"

Olga shook her head and looked at her maids. "We'll go to the spa later," she said, though she looked at the babies crawling and laughing and the children playing around and making the most of their 'school-free' time while it lasted.

Unbeknownst to many, it was not only the Golds who were observing the uniqueness that was Altera… there were also other men, though they were obviously hostile, looking at everything in amazement and greed.

"This is really a great target," One said to his companion, who was observing everything as if they already owned it.

"It's time to go back to Fargo."

"Eh, maybe later," the other said, chewing on his barbeque. "I feel that we could still see so much more."
