Chapter 405 - 278: Companion

Star Town never faced any more crises, and everything developed smoothly.
The Mahara merchants exerted their utmost effort to help, and the number of giant carriages heading to Star Town increased daily. Star Town’s main population had already exceeded eight hundred thousand. The original town could no longer accommodate so many people, and Star Town was rapidly expanding west and east, expected to connect with Ghost Spirit Lake and the Underground City within the coming months.
Thanks to the efforts of the Life Sect, Ghost Spirit Lake had become vibrant with life, with over sixty thousand farmers and fishermen engaging in agriculture and aquaculture there. The food they produced not only supplied Star Town but was also sold back to the Royal City.
The Underground City to the east had become an important transfer and buffer zone for Star Town.
The Underground City, reaching more than six hundred yards deep, could accommodate at least three hundred thousand people and had no drawbacks except for the inconvenience it posed to ordinary travelers.
The core resources of Star Town—the True Silver Vein and Sun Crystal Vein—had also reached full saturation, bringing a smile to everyone’s face with their daily output.
