Chapter 098 Gold Coin Challenge Wave 3
Li Hanqiang took the megaphone off Xiao Tuolei's neck, looked at it, and thought to himself that this thing was actually quite useful; it could be used to command battles or shout out messages during monster sieges.
He happily confiscated it, but couldn't help but miss the goblin peddler, Bing Erqi.
Little Torre said that this Bing-27 is carrying a rocket pack and can fly!
If we could rob his rocket pack, it would probably be much more valuable than his trolley.
李汉强查看了一下妖山资源，如今妖山矿石31、妖山木材33、妖山草药75，十年灵芝60、百年灵芝16、千年灵芝3、万年灵芝1、玄铁矿石233，此外还有小钻风巡山捡到的精铁矿石5块、赤铜矿石3块，而小妖的数量上限也提升到160。
After a moment's thought, Li Hanqiang mobilized his lesser demons to build two empty platforms in the back mountain for backup. In addition, he specially dug a cave in a feng shui treasure spot chosen by Zhang Deshuai next to the Lingzhi Forest, as promised earlier.
Thus, there are 6 pieces of ore and 13 pieces of wood left in Demon Mountain.
Half a day later, Zhang Deshuai arrived at the back mountain, successfully obtained the cave, and officially became a resident of Chaos City. By collecting Ganoderma lucidum and fishing in the Azure Wave Pool, his contribution to Chaos City had reached 110 points.
The next day, Li Hanqiang personally started the Gold Coin Challenge. Relying on the four-story sword tower, he finally cleared the second wave of the Gold Coin Challenge, annihilated the Golden Cavalry, and caught another Golden Warhorse in the Super Animal Trap.
Li Hanqiang witnessed the whole process and found it quite interesting. After the Super Beast Catcher tamed the golden warhorse, the cavalryman landed and became an infantryman, and his level also became level 10, exactly the same as the golden infantryman in the first stage of the Gold Coin Challenge.
The newly acquired golden warhorse was assigned by Li Hanqiang to Fanfeng Knight and Ignition Sword Saint. The two played rock-paper-scissors, and Ignition Sword Saint got his wish. He laughed heartily, wearing a tortoise shell on his head, and rode the golden warhorse in circles in Chaos City Square.
At this moment, Li Hanqiang received a system notification: "Congratulations on successfully completing the second stage of the Gold Coin Challenge. The third stage of the Gold Coin Challenge will begin in five minutes."
"System notification: The siege unit in the third stage of the Gold Coin Challenge is the Golden Chariot, level 30, with 10 armor, 9000 durability, and drops 20 silver coins upon defeat (3000 total). It moves at 5 meters per second, spawns one chariot per second, and each chariot can steal 10 Chaos Energy from the Heart of Chaos. You may now choose to end the Gold Coin Challenge..."
"It has armor and durability? A chariot!" Li Hanqiang was very curious.
A moment later, the golden chariot appeared. The golden chariot was just like a golden tank, with tracks and a cannon as thick as a water bucket. The front of the chariot had thick spiked armor, and white steam kept coming out of the roof as it moved.
Upon seeing the golden chariot, Li Hanqiang was immediately envious, thinking to himself that this was what a chariot should look like. If he could persuade a few of them to come, that would be amazing.
Unfortunately, during the Gold Coin Challenge phase, the Little Monk Huixin's talent was useless, and the Beast Catcher became a mere decoration, as neither the small beast trap nor the super beast trap worked.
The Golden Chariot is a unit with armor and durability, making it much tougher than the Golden Knight. Fortunately, the four-story sword tower and the open spear and hidden arrow tower deal true damage, ignoring defense and armor types.
Li Hanqiang had witnessed the power of the four-story sword tower. The four intersecting sword energies were dazzling, and the 300-meter range allowed it to be the first to attack the golden chariot.
Li Hanqiang silently assessed that the trigger probability of the Twin Swords Combination was about 10%. Each time it was triggered, the four characters "Twin Swords Combination" would appear on the fourth floor of the sword tower, and then two flying swords could be seen rushing out of the sword tower. With a crisp sound of the blades being drawn from their sheaths, they accurately hit the target at the same time.
However, the four swords combining their powers is truly a matter of fate; Li Hanqiang has never witnessed it.
Unfortunately, even though the four-story sword tower was very powerful, Li Hanqiang still couldn't last four minutes in this gold coin challenge. He only "killed" 33 golden chariots and ultimately earned 186 gold and 60 silver!
With this achievement, after many days, Li Hanqiang finally climbed back onto the Gold Coin Challenge leaderboard, ranking tenth from the bottom!
Li Hanqiang was already quite satisfied with this result, after all, he was just a casual player.
"We can start the 14th wave of monster siege now." After a quick calculation, Li Hanqiang realized that with the earnings from the gold coin challenge and the "daily wage" from the Chaos Treasury, his total gold coins exceeded 250!
"Use these gold coins to repair the city gate. We can't strive for perfection. Let's accept the little monk's advice as it comes."
Li Hanqiang silently applied to the system to activate the 14th wave of monster siege.
"System Prompt: Respected Chaos City Lord, starting from the 14th wave of monster sieges, the siege method has changed, random events have a higher trigger rate, and the difficulty of defending the city will be greatly increased. If the defense fails, all of Chaos City's reserve gold coins will be deducted, and one non-bound defensive tower or other building will be randomly destroyed. The defense rewards will also be increased accordingly. Do you confirm starting the 14th wave of monster sieges?"
"A confirmation message actually came. It seems that this 14th wave of monster siege is unusual, and the difficulty of defending the city has greatly increased?" After a moment's thought, Li Hanqiang decisively started the monster siege.
There's no need to issue city defense missions anymore. As residents of Chaos City, Fan Knight, Ignition Sword Saint, and Zhang Deshuai won't be kicked out of Chaos City even if they start a monster siege. They quickly occupied the Chaos Slab.
The Golden Horned Slime and Silver Horned Slime are already at max level, so there's no need for them to grind experience on the Chaos Slab anymore. The Fatty and Xiang Mang riding the Balrog Three-Headed Tiger will take their place.
In this way, all the Chaos Slabs were filled.
A moment later, Li Hanqiang summoned Xiao Zuanfeng's patrol team and Xiao Tuolei's robbery team from the Demon Mountain Cave. He also called out the little monk Huixin and Wakan II from the Bibo Pool. The little angel Eileen had not yet surrendered, but she was no longer as panicked as before. She secretly followed Wakan II and watched Li Hanqiang prepare for battle.
The little monk Huixin was very happy. He was finally free from the Chaos Slab and could chat with King Wakan II in front of the city's defense center.
Li Hanqiang, standing in mid-air, addressed the fanners, the torchbearers, and Zhang Deshuai: "Keep it up, everyone! If we win the defense, we'll give everyone a reward!"
The Fan Knight said, "Another reward? It's not going to be one gold coin per person, is it?"
Li Hanqiang chuckled awkwardly and said, "Times have changed. Now we're all on the same side, and I, Li Hanqiang, will never treat my friends unfairly. As for the reward items, you'll soon find out what they are."
After saying this, Li Hanqiang finished his preparations for battle, and then the time wormhole immediately expanded, from which a large number of monsters surged out.
Shadow Boar, Two-Headed Jackal, Frost Leopard, Thunder Tiger, Undead Skeleton Soldier, Ghoul, Carrion Eagle, Mechanical Spider, Hellhound, Mammoth... Dozens of monsters made their appearance, all of them level 30. Sure enough, there were flying creatures and running creatures, big and small, some fast and some slow.
Overall, this wave of siege monsters moved much faster than previous waves, and they also spawned from the time-space wormhole at a faster speed.
"Has the difficulty increased even a little bit? This is a direct leap forward, isn't it?" Li Hanqiang was quite surprised, thinking that without the city gate, it would be very difficult to defend against such a monster's attack.
However, this is how monster sieges should be. Li Hanqiang could foresee that future monster sieges would definitely be even more ferocious, and the days when monsters slowly advanced along the war corridor were probably gone forever.
