Changing Life And Career? I Planted The World Tree At The Beginning

These monsters are covered in wrinkles, wearing tattered clothes, and are no taller than 1.4 meters. In their hands, they hold either wooden sticks or rusty and broken swords.

Some of them are even missing arms and legs, crawling on the ground, resembling mutated zombies.

At first glance, they are weak and feeble, not even worthy of being considered cannon fodder.

Chen Yu put on his detective glasses and cast a detection spell.

Weak goblins.

Template: Small Monster.

Level: 10.

Attributes: Strength 30, Agility 30, Constitution 32, Spirit 20.

Skills: None.

Indeed, they are just a group of cannon fodder.

After a few minutes, no more monsters appeared in the white mist.

The first batch of monsters consisted of about three hundred.

Due to the huge difference in attributes, even if Chen Yu didn't take action, the vanguard village warriors could hold their ground and there would be no casualties.

However, the experience gained from killing monsters by the vanguard village warriors would not be credited to Chen Yu.

Therefore, Chen Yu summoned 100 Thorn Vine Fiends to guard the city.

After about ten minutes, the goblins ran chaotically towards the city walls.

The goblin that ran over first probably had poor eyesight and mistook the Thorn Vine Fiends for human girls.

It drooled, let out an excited roar, and charged towards the Thorn Vine Fiends.

Fortunately, the Thorn Vine Fiends couldn't understand the goblin's actions and had no feelings of anger.

Seeing the enemy approaching, it raised its hand.

A vine whip suddenly grew to over ten meters long and smashed down on the green-skinned creature's head.

The goblin, still immersed in its delusion of violating a human girl, didn't have time to react before its head was smashed by the whip.

[Killed Level 10 Goblin, experience +30]

"This experience rate feels great!"

Seeing the prompt, Chen Yu's eyes lit up.

When fighting ordinary Level 10 wild monsters outside, the experience gained is only around 10 points.

The experience gained from monsters in the instance is three times that!

Under the city walls, a large group of weak goblins swarmed.

The Thorn Vine Fiends extended all five vine tendrils from their hands and, when swung, made a "woo woo" sound as they broke through the air.

For a moment, countless green vines danced like mad snakes.

In Chen Yu's ears, a continuous stream of prompt sounds rang out.

[Killed Level 11 Goblin, experience +33]

[Killed Level 10 Goblin, experience +30]

[Killed Level 12 Goblin, experience +36]

In less than a minute, hundreds of goblins turned into incomplete corpses.

Halfway through, there were still a few goblins with lame legs crawling towards the vanguard village's city walls.

When they saw that the majority of the army had been wiped out in less than five minutes, they were dumbfounded, unsure whether to continue advancing or retreat quickly.

Chen Yu noticed the dilemma of these few goblins and made a considerate decision for them.

A few seconds later, the Thorn Vine Fiends rushed over and ended their painful lives with a few whips.

On the city walls, the vanguard village warriors were initially dumbfounded, but then burst into cheers.

Thus, the first wave of attacks ended.

Impatient to wait, Chen Yu ordered the Thorn Vine Fiends to charge into the white mist and start killing.

However, as soon as the Thorn Vine Fiends reached the edge of the white mist, they collided with an invisible wall.

"So the white mist is the edge of the instance and also the spawn point."

Helpless, Chen Yu could only order the Thorn Vine Fiends to retreat.

After a moment, the prompt sounded.

[Prompt: You repelled the first wave of goblin attacks, contribution +10]

[Prompt: Due to your outstanding performance in the first wave of attacks, additional contribution +100]

[Prompt: Contribution can be used to exchange for vanguard village supplies, including equipment, medicine, buildings, special items, etc. (cannot be taken out of the instance)]

Chen Yu opened the exchange list to check.

Old wooden arrow tower: Shoots an arrow every 5 seconds, requires a contribution of 10.

Brand new wooden arrow tower: Shoots an arrow every 3 seconds, requires a contribution of 20.

Old stone arrow tower: Shoots three arrows every 5 seconds, requires a contribution of 100.

Brand new stone arrow tower, upgraded stone walls, powerful crossbows, cannons...

Elite Vanguard Village Helmet: Rare equipment (quest), requires a contribution of 20.

Stamina potion: Restores 100 stamina, requires a contribution of 10.

Divine Medicine potion: Restores 100 spiritual power, requires a contribution of 10.

...

"So, this is actually a tower defense instance?"

The correct instance process should be to defeat monsters and accumulate contributions to upgrade the city's defenses.

The better the city's defenses are built in the early stages, the higher the late-stage benefits will be.

However, for Chen,

What's the point of city defense?!

Chen Yu directly exchanged all his contributions for stamina potions and Divine Medicine potions.

Then he took Xiao Yan and Xiao Feng out of the Unsurpassable Sacred Ground, playing with them to pass the time while accumulating proficiency in his professional skills.

Half an hour later, the second wave of attacks arrived.

This time, it was still a group of weak and feeble monsters, but there were more of them, easily over a thousand.

With a command from Chen Yu, 100 Thorny Spirits rushed forward.

This time, the goblins had just appeared and hadn't even had a chance to charge when they were beaten into a pulp by countless vines falling from the sky.

[Hint: You repelled the second wave of goblin attacks, contribution +20]

[Hint: Due to your outstanding performance in the second wave of attacks, additional contribution +200]

[Hint: Contributions can be used to exchange for Vanguard Village supplies, including equipment, medicine, buildings, special items, etc. (cannot be taken out of the instance)]

After the second wave ended, the Thorny Spirits did not retreat but blocked the monster spawn point.

The width of the spawn point was only about 100 meters, and it was completely blocked by the Thorny Spirits.

Many vines had nowhere to go and were forced to retract.

Another half an hour later, the third wave of attacks arrived.

As soon as a goblin walked out of the white mist, it was simultaneously struck by several vines and instantly torn apart.

[Killed Level 16 goblin, experience +48]

[Killed Level 20 goblin, experience +60]

[Killed Level 17 goblin, experience +51]

...

Chen Yu didn't even have time to use his detection skill, so he could only see their levels from the experience gain hints.

A few minutes later, Chen Yu's experience bar grew a little, and the third wave of attacks ended.

Immediately after, the fourth wave, the fifth wave, the sixth wave...

Until the tenth wave, the vanguard warriors defending the village didn't see a single goblin.

They didn't even know what they should be doing on the city walls.

But due to the rules, they couldn't charge out or retreat.

Some vanguard warriors, bored out of their minds, sat in groups of three or two on the ground and started playing cards.

Chen Yu was very surprised and went over to watch, discovering a card game he had never seen before.

"Is it programmed, or do they have independent thinking?"

After thinking for a moment, Chen Yu believed it should be the former.

In their logic, there might be a setting that they should engage in some form of entertainment when they have nothing to do.

[Killed Level 35 goblin, experience +105]

With the final kill prompt, the tenth wave of attacks came to an end.

[Hint: You repelled the tenth wave of goblin attacks, contribution +100]

[Hint: Due to your outstanding performance in the tenth wave of attacks, additional contribution +1000]

[Hint: Contributions can be used to exchange for Vanguard Village supplies, including equipment, medicine, buildings, special items, etc. (cannot be taken out of the instance)]

[Hint: You have completed the Rank One instance mission, do you want to exit and settle the instance?]

[Hint: Since you have chosen the real difficulty, your instance progress will be saved when you exit, and you can enter again and continue from where you left off after the cooldown period.]

"No settlement."

Chen Yu decisively made a negative choice.
