Chapter 7, Tier 2 Basic Arrow Tower
Chapter 7, Tier 2 Basic Arrow Tower
"Parkour Bear, I'm waiting for your return with the loot!"
Liu Huasheng was filled with anticipation.
Moments later, the third wave of monster invasion began. This time, instead of teleportation orbs, large swaths of white light landed, directly teleporting all the invading monsters over.
The invading monsters instantly gathered about 300 meters below the high ground, forming a huge, swarming mass of small murlocs.
Fish-men are not mermaids. These monsters have fish heads and human bodies, resembling small, spirited goldfish with bulging eyes. They are only about half a meter tall, with thin arms and legs, and brightly colored scales on their bodies!
Donkey Afu immediately began broadcasting: "The third wave of monster invasion has officially begun. The invading monsters are level 1 Murlocs, with 12 health points, totaling 1000. They possess 1 attack power and their mission is destruction; they will relentlessly attack all living units and defensive structures in their path, except for gold mines!"
"These mobs can fight back; this is going to be a bit difficult!"
Liu Huasheng was actually looking forward to the upcoming monster invasion.
If the monsters aren't strong, how can you demonstrate the strength of your own defensive towers?
At this very moment, on this land called Lostanp, the other seven players were quite nervous.
This third wave of monster invasion is a test. If you can hold it, you can become a formal tower defense lord; if you can't, you will be forced to become a monster.
The attrition rate is still quite high!
To better defend themselves, these players mostly build their defensive towers in a straight line, so that the damage can be evenly distributed and the towers can be destroyed quickly by concentrated fire.
Even so, many players are still feeling uneasy!
The tower defense lords themselves have no attack power; once the monsters break through the defenses, death awaits them!
Wang Shuaibo was filled with worry at this moment.
Last night he ate five pieces of dried rat meat, and after eating his fill, he went to mine for gold. He worked all night, and by morning, his stamina had miraculously recovered to 100 points, and he had also accumulated nearly two hundred gold coins.
He built the third basic arrow tower.
Seeing the countless murlocs below the high ground, Wang Shuaibo instinctively felt overwhelmed. He clenched his fist and exclaimed, "Damn it, this is so unfair! It's so hard for us ordinary players! Are we only fit to be monsters? I'm not reconciled! I'm not reconciled!"
His game assistant then said, "Master, don't despair! The dried rats we bought last night weren't a waste. Let's rush in and draw their fire. The three basic arrow towers still have a chance to hold off this wave of monsters!"
At this very moment, eight o'clock arrived, and below all the players' territories, a thousand little murlocs surged forth, beginning their march towards the high ground!
Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh...
Here at Liu Huasheng's location, the Killing Arrow Towers began their attack, three arrows in two seconds, three kills in four seconds!
The little fishmen swarmed around, but they didn't move very fast, swaying and staggering like a group of zombies.
They have 12 health points. The basic arrow tower with 10 attack power can no longer kill them with one arrow, but with the 1.5 attack speed of the Killing Arrow Tower, they are quickly turned into light one by one.
The Mocking Golem suddenly came to life, hands on its hips, laughing loudly, and shouted, "Little cabbage, come scratch your big brother's itch!"
"Come on, Greyhound!"
"You dare to show your face with such little skill?"
"Summon your courage! If you really don't have any money, borrow some from Liang Jingru!"
"Even the minions in Summoner's Rift are a hundred times stronger than you!"
"Are you trying to rub dirt on me...?"
The taunting golem continued its taunts, drawing red light from the nearby murlocs, who then charged at it in a frenzy.
Liu Huasheng was stunned, exclaiming, "Good heavens, that's real mockery! Incredible!"
The taunting effect of the Taunt Golem was undoubtedly powerful. The Murlocs rushed over in droves, with those in front sharpening their blades on the Taunt Golem, making a "snap-snap" sound. Those behind got stuck, unable to attack, and paced around frantically like ants on a hot pan.
Their attack power is only one point, and each attack can only reduce the War Golem's durability by 0.25 points. Their attack speed is very slow. The Taunt Golem, on the other hand, has 5000 points of durability and seems quite sturdy!
Before long, a golden light flashed above the Killing Arrow Tower, and it accumulated 300 kills, growing stronger once again!
This growth represents a advancement!
The basic arrow tower suddenly grew larger, its height increasing to about 15 meters, and the arrows it fired became noticeably larger!
The donkey, Afu, grunted and said, "Master, your basic arrow tower has been upgraded to a second-tier defensive tower!"
Liu Huasheng quickly checked the attribute information of the basic arrow tower.
====
Name: Basic Arrow Tower
Rank: 2
Durability: 4000
Attack: 20
Attack range: 100 meters
Attack speed: 2.0 (2 attacks per second on average)
Attack type: Physical
Attack effects: None
Second-tier ability: [Attribute Boost], Attack +10, Range +50, Attack Speed +0.5, Durability +1000
Amazing Ability: [Advanced Killing], 5/1000...
====
"Holy crap, that's impressive. Attack power 20, attack speed 2, two kills per second. Ignoring range, the firepower of this Tier 2 tower is equivalent to eight Tier 1 basic arrow towers... Will it need 1000 kills to grow stronger again?"
Liu Huasheng thought to himself that the Tier 2 basic arrow tower was powerful and this wave was in the bag. He watched from afar as the Tier 2 arrow tower killed one small fish mana with each arrow. The white light around the War Golem kept flashing, and those small fish mana were simply made of paper.
At this very moment, Little Fishman charged straight into Wang Shuaibo's territory.
With the three basic arrow towers in the rear, their output was clearly insufficient. Wang Shuaibo and his goat assistant were also fighting on the front line. Although they couldn't deal damage, they tried their best to draw aggro and relieve the pressure on the three basic arrow towers.
"Master, don't give up! We still have a chance! Grab the mermen in front of you and lead them in circles!"
The alpaca shouted loudly, and the little fishman did not attack it. At this moment, it was like a commander.
"Damn it, do you even need to tell me!"
Wang Shuaibo shouted loudly; he had already lost half of his health.
Just then, accompanied by howls, a red bear rushed into Wang Shuaibo's field of vision.
The red bear came quickly, not running normally at all. It did somersaults, swayed and danced, then suddenly turned around, its rear end facing forward, and moved forward in a moonwalk.
"What the hell is this thing?"
Wang Shuaibo's eyes widened; he felt that the red-haired giant bear was mocking him.
The goat assistant said, "It's a monster released by other players, Master. Someone's trying to take advantage of your weakness. Goodness, it's a level 3 elite monster with 1500 HP! Master, should we focus our fire on it and kill it?"
"Shoot my ass!" Wang Shuaibo kicked his goat assistant and roared, "My arrow tower is already heavily surrounded. It'll probably be destroyed before I can even kill this idiot bear!"
"What should we do then?"
Wang Shuaibo closed his eyes and said, "Damn it, this is too unfair to ordinary players. I give up. If I have to switch to a wild monster class, I'll fight those pay-to-win and VIP players!"
"Oh no, Master! Another level 3 elite monster has arrived—a Bloodthirsty Porcupine!"
The goat cried out.
Upon hearing this, Wang Shuaibo looked around. Sixty-seven meters away, a huge porcupine, its body glowing red, was shaking its shoulders, and sharp, arrow-like bristles shot out from its back, accurately striking the defensive arrow tower.
Its attack power is much higher than that of the Murloc, and it took down 23 points of the basic archer tower's durability in one hit!
"Damn it, another monster, and one with attack capabilities! Who let this one in?"
Wang Shuaibo was utterly desperate!
He was already struggling to withstand the attacks from the little fishman, and then a powerful, bloodthirsty porcupine appeared. How was he supposed to defend against that?
Knowing he had no way out, Wang Shuaibo picked up his construction hammer and rushed towards the nearest murloc. Even if he died, he would fight to the death!
Moments later, the parkour bear entered the gold mine, and almost simultaneously, the basic arrow tower that had been attacked by the bloodthirsty porcupine collapsed.
The bloodthirsty porcupine immediately switched its attack target, and within twenty seconds, the second basic arrow tower was also destroyed, followed by the collapse of the third basic arrow tower.
There were at least eight hundred murlocs left, and they surged toward the gold mine in a massive swarm.
Wang Shuaibo was backstabbed in the head by the Bloodthirsty Porcupine and disappeared in a flash with a cry of pain.
"Master, you're such a useless piece of trash..."
The goat assistant cursed loudly and then vanished in a flash of light.
At this moment, Liu Huasheng was curiously observing the parkour bear that had reappeared on the teleportation array.
Donkey Afu broadcast to Liu Huasheng: "Ding! Parkour Bear has successfully completed the invasion and brought back 300 gold coins. Congratulations, Master, your health has increased by one point!"
