seclusion, crunching crystals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Dawn City had been ceaselessly conquering cities, rolling across the Wasteland!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the southern A308, fifty

10.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not for the fact that Dawn City is currently a Level 2 Sanctuary City, with a maximum of only 50 sub-cities, Yin Yao and the others would have taken all 51 Sanctuary Cities, including Daluo City, in these two days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since breaking into Tier Ten and finishing that first Promotion, Dawn City’s affairs had been handed by Yu Jin over to Yin Yao and the rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This would be the pattern from now on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dawn City’s development and expansion were entrusted to Yin Yao and

not even three days, was already fully immersed in this atmosphere—his loyalty shout was louder than Chen Gang’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Jin watched, nodding in satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good spirit!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Promote!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This return to Dawn City was for precisely this

become even more urgent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only by quickly reaching Level 6 could the Tier Six ’Coordinate Imprint’ ability ’One-Click Max Level’.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Returning to Blue Star

ten-meter-wide bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During Dawn City’s promotion period, the City Lord and all subordinates could not leave—everyone had to stay inside the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the Promotion, Dawn City would go straight from Level 2 to Level 4.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Two days...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Jin muttered to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past, he
