Piercing Through The Soul Lord Of The Pit

Chapter 14: The First Neighbor

Through the 10 consecutive draws of resource crystals, the efficiency of obtaining magic crystals is relatively high. After accumulating enough magic crystals, Wu Feng immediately had all 12 farmers come to build the Death Tomb.

This is already the third special building constructed by this group of farmers. Watching their skilled movements, Wu Feng couldn't help but sigh, "If these farmers continue to build, will they become construction workers? They could be the construction team in the territory."

After all, the farmers are not professionals. It takes a full 6 hours for them to build a blue building, so there is still some waiting to do.

Just as Wu Feng started building the Death Tomb, Virgo found something for him. Important information was transmitted from Virgo's side.

Wu Feng switched back to her perspective and discovered that after running nearly 2 kilometers to the northeast, Virgo found another lord's territory!

At this moment, Virgo was crouching behind a boulder, secretly observing. In the distance, there was a cluster of buildings, which belonged to another lord. Surprisingly, this lord had more buildings than Wu Feng!

Wu Feng couldn't help but complain, "Are there so many second-generation lords in my area? Is their newbie package several times better than mine?"

Wu Feng had already started with a good hand, but his newbie package could only be considered average. The fact that there was a neighbor so close to him who had built so many buildings was beyond his expectations.

He could clearly see that this "neighbor" currently had 6 defense towers and 5 special buildings, most of which were probably obtained from the newbie package.

This already exceeded the number of buildings Wu Feng had. Among the newbie lords at this stage, this neighbor could definitely be considered quite strong.

However, Wu Feng couldn't understand the layout of this neighbor's territory. The neighbor's territory was expanding towards the northeast, but it had only expanded 1 to 2 squares in other directions.

Meanwhile, there were dozens of units in the northeast direction, and even the defense towers were placed in that direction.

Wu Feng immediately judged that something was happening in the northeast direction. "Virgo, go around from the side and take a look. You can fly and bypass the defense towers to investigate the situation over there."

Virgo also had this idea and nodded, "My lord, it will take a few minutes for me to fly over. Please wait."

She quietly flew out from behind the boulder, making sure her goblin warriors and imps were hidden.

Virgo flew several kilometers around and finally discovered that the northeast direction of this territory was a canyon. It extended northeastward, and the exit of the canyon was blocked by defense towers.

Flying above the canyon, Virgo discovered a large number of demons gathered on the other side of the canyon!

"My lord, it seems like there are several demon dens in this canyon. I've found several types of demons! Not only imps, but also higher-level horned demons, demon infants, and flame demons!"

Wu Feng also noticed what Virgo reported through her perspective. The canyon was densely packed with demons, and they were charging towards the exit of the canyon.

However, they were blocked by a row of 6 defense towers at the canyon exit. Among these defense towers, 4 were green and 2 were blue quality.

The imps in the front row were attacking the defense towers, but under the control of the lord, the defense towers did not attack the imps in the front row. Instead, they continuously shot at the horned demons and flame demons deeper inside.

Imps were the lowest-level demons, and their attacks posed little threat to the defense towers. It was a common tactic for lords to let imps occupy the front line and focus on killing the higher-level demons.

"With this terrain... if it weren't for this guy having so many defense towers, they would have already rushed into the territory!"

Wu Feng rubbed his chin. This "neighbor" of his had encountered a narrow canyon terrain. As long as they blocked the canyon exit, they could continuously spawn demons from several dens, greatly increasing the speed of resource acquisition!

Encountering this kind of terrain meant that the weak would perish while the strong would take off. Wu Feng had a group of Star Towers, and if he blocked them at the entrance of the canyon, he would also take off!

"My lord, what should we do now? Should we retreat or..." Virgo asked Wu Feng while continuing to observe everything in the territory.

After pondering for a moment, Wu Feng immediately made a decision, "This neighbor is so close, they won't expand towards the northeast anymore. If they change direction, we will meet before reaching level 10."

"There will be a battle between our two families! We must seize the opportunity while he is still establishing himself and take over his territory!"

Wu Feng was resolute. In the war between lords, there was no concept of justice or evil. In order to ensure their own safety, they had to eliminate this threat!

The opponent has now focused their resources on blocking the exit of the gorge in the northeast. Currently, there is not even a defensive tower in Wu Feng's direction.

In this situation, Wu Feng must seize the opportunity for a decisive strike! Otherwise, the opponent's resource acquisition efficiency will quickly increase, and it will become more difficult for Wu Feng to confront them once they grow stronger.

"Virgo, your imps and goblin warriors can play a role now. This territory is completely open to us. Charge directly from the southwest!"

Wu Feng carefully deployed a low-grade operation for Virgo. However, just as Virgo was about to charge, another lord walked to the edge of the territory and purified two squares in the southwest direction.

This should be a newly acquired small plot of land. The lord then placed a defensive tower in the southwest direction and two others in different directions using blueprints. A group of farmers were busy constructing the towers, which would take some time to complete.

It seems that the goblin lord also knows that he needs to defend the direction backed by the gorge.

"Well, the plan needs to be slightly adjusted. First, let the imps go and kill his farmers, causing him to be busy and confused!"

Wu Feng immediately ordered Virgo. He didn't let Virgo charge directly from the southwest because there were arrow towers there, and it wouldn't be easy to take them down in one wave.

Virgo nodded immediately. She made her imps take a detour and charged from the southeast direction.

The imps discovered the defensive tower being constructed in the southeast direction and a group of farmers. They attacked the farmers directly, just like wild monsters.

Several farmers who were constructing the tower immediately suffered losses. Out of the 19 imps, four farmers were killed in one round of attacks, and the others were left with low health.

"Boss Three, " immediately noticed the group of imps, "Damn it, I just caught my breath and now there are imps! Did I fall into an imp's nest?"

"Boss Three" saw his farmers being slaughtered and felt heartbroken!

He immediately ordered, "Blue Fist, immediately take care of these imps. You can lure them towards the arrow tower and use it to kill them."

After receiving the order, a tall boxer by Boss Three's side nodded and went to carry out the command.

The boxer, accompanied by two female boxers, rushed out. They were Boss Three's hero and troops, a blue-quality Azure Fist and the female boxers he trained!

After encountering the imps, Azure Fist used a combo and killed one imp. However, as the imps swarmed him, his health slowly decreased.

Azure Fist could have taken care of this group of imps alone, but he would be left with low health. To be on the safe side, he followed the lord's command and lured the imps towards the vicinity of the arrow tower.

Under the firepower of the arrow tower, the imps were picked off one by one. These imps were actually attracted to the arrow tower and started banging on it, causing some durability loss. Boss Three laughed, "These imps are so stupid. They're actually hitting the arrow tower. They can only reduce its durability a little. I'll have the farmers repair it later!"

So, under the firepower of the hero and the arrow tower, the imps were quickly eliminated.

But as Boss Three expected, another group of imps soon arrived from the southeast. Boss Three followed the same plan and cleared the imps again.

However, when the third wave of imps charged, Boss Three noticed something was wrong. Among the imps, there was a goblin warrior!

What shocked him even more was a very beautiful succubus flying at the forefront, emitting an orange glow. It dazzled Boss Three's eyes!

"Damn it! This is another lord's hero, and it's even an orange hero! Is this the top-ranked hero on the hero leaderboard, Holy Succubus?"
