Tower Defense Game: My Kingdom of Eternal Life

"What are they going to do?"

Cheng Shen, who was about to turn around and leave without disturbing each other, suddenly stopped.

He saw that the group of monsters had just passed by where he was hiding, and stopped after advancing a short distance.

Boom!

The burly Storm Warrior carried a giant ax and began to clear the surrounding trees. The thick old tree, which the two of them hugged together, could not withstand four or five rounds of cutting. It soon collapsed with a rumble, and the view blocked by the leaf crowns suddenly became clear.

In the blink of an eye.

Dozens of storm warriors worked together to clear an open space in the dense forest.

They dismantled the heavy armor and turned it into pieces of silver-white metal plates. At a height of about half a meter above the ground, they spread them out neatly with the help of remaining tree stumps, forming a platform about thirty meters in diameter.

Immediately afterwards.

The dozens of storm warriors who removed their armor and exposed their metal skeletons, which looked like mechanical skeletons, pulled out a thick spine from their bodies.

Cheng Shen immediately discovered that the structure of the extracted spine was different from theirs. The Storm Warrior's body was made of metal, but the round and thick spine was made of crystal stone with runes engraved on the surface.

The shape of the hedron cylinder carried by each Stormtrooper is somewhat different.

They put thirty-two columns together to form a one-meter-high crystal tower. The rune structure carved on the tower became complete, and immediately inspired bright thunder, crackling and spreading around.

Crack!!

In an instant, the entire silver-white metal platform was covered with lightning.

The dense lightning surged toward the center, intertwining into a twisted grid.

Energy began to condense and accumulate at the top of the crystal tower.

Wow...

Those special types of Stormtroopers seem to exist just to build this device.

The moment the crystal tower was formed, it was scattered into metal components.

Around the platform, a group of thunder beasts gathered like wolves, and floating lightning wizards were all sucking up the energy emitted by the crystal tower.

They seem to be able to recover through this crystal tower.

Feedback can also be provided.

Speed ​​up the energy accumulation speed of the crystal tower.

"This location is more than two thousand meters away from the nearest temple stronghold. Is this also an ultra-long-distance war weapon?"

Cheng Shen quietly observed.

He didn't know what would happen to this crystal tower once its energy reached its limit, but from his standpoint.

These monsters' plans will definitely not go as planned.

"I haven't seen it before. I'll steal it first and then talk about it."

His eyes were as bright as a torch.

The gaze blessed with the innate ability instantly analyzed the device from the inside to the outside. And, while he understood the connotation of those runes, he also mastered the effects of these runes.

"It's actually a charging station..."

Cheng Shen was slightly stunned.

Judging from the effect of the combination of runes alone, this crystal tower does not have offensive capabilities, basically ruling out the possibility of being used as a war weapon.

its effect,

It is to provide lightning attribute energy supplement to targets in the surrounding area.

But its recovery strength is very exaggerated.

Cheng Shen has seen the Thunderstorm Chariot and knows that the energy required to activate a Thunderstorm Chariot is at least 500 units of magic energy.

Converted into energy crystals.

Low-level crystals such as primary energy crystals only cost fifty yuan!

Fifty energy crystals can open five level 10 dungeon maps.

And this is only the minimum consumption of one shot! To exert the maximum attack effect of the Thunderstorm Chariot, the energy consumption must be doubled!

But in the crystal tower in front of us, enough energy has been accumulated for the Thunderstorm Chariot to attack three times with its strongest power.

And that's not even close to reaching its energy storage limit.

Cheng Shen understood that this crystal tower was obviously the "spring" in the technology tree of Storm Castle.

It can provide huge energy supplies for its combat units!

No wonder.

It needs to be built far away from the battlefield.

Once this kind of thing is discovered by the enemy, it must be destroyed at all costs.

Even he is no exception.

Fighting against an enemy who controls a supply depot is equivalent to the enemy attacking his temple stronghold. If his only home field advantage is equalized by the opponent, he will no longer be able to take advantage on the frontal battlefield.

In terms of the individual strength and quantity of the combat troops, he would be crushed by the opponent. If it were not for the defensive advantage of the territory, his iron-blooded soldier guard would probably be completely annihilated in a head-to-head confrontation.

"There are still too few combat units..."

Cheng Shen said secretly.

Although he can solve most combat incidents with his personal force alone, he is a lord after all, and he needs to do every trivial matter personally, which will inevitably reduce the price...

Reflect on yourself secretly.

Cheng Shen was not prepared to let the crystal tower be built smoothly.

At the same time, he also realized that there would definitely not be just one similar Crystal Tower Storm Castle built.

Fortunately, he suddenly wanted to launch a surprise attack this time.

Found this situation.

Otherwise, this place is so far away from the temple stronghold, completely outside the coverage of the sentry tower, and is covered by dense forests. Once a fight breaks out, it will not be discovered at all, and the battle situation will quickly fall into a passive position.

Then there would be big trouble.

In a flash of thought.

Cheng Shen destroyed the crystal tower without exposing his body.

As a formation master, he has a hundred ways to deal with this purely magical technological product, interfering with its normal operation without anyone noticing.

destroy.

It's just the lowest level of means.

Cheng Shen could completely change the role of this crystal tower with just a few changes.

He immediately released a ray of mental power, and under the almost airtight protection of the surrounding monsters, it quietly integrated into the power grid. The grid woven around the crystal tower was distorted for a moment, but soon returned to calm.

The monsters just looked up.

No changes were found.

Then he continued to engage in patrolling.

Soon, Cheng Shen moved away from the area under the influence of triple concealment. He activated his innate ability, and his huge mental power instantly expanded to a radius of one kilometer, capturing those areas where energy was concentrated.

one,

two seats,

Three seats...

Cheng Shen found the five crystal towers scattered around the area.

What concerned him was that several of the crystal towers had obviously been built for a long time.

The energy accumulated in it has reached a limit state.

A crystal tower with full energy storage can provide a Thunderstorm Chariot with the energy consumption to activate its maximum power fifty times in a row!

Extremely exaggerated!

And these crystal towers were obviously the first attack on him by Storm Castle yesterday, or even earlier.

It has already been built.

But none of them worked in previous battles.

The purpose is self-evident.

Cheng Shen couldn't help but feel happy.

He still underestimated the wisdom of the master of Storm Castle.

On his side, he was secretly happy that the opponent did not launch a general attack because of his poor command, and made consecutive mistakes, which gave him ample opportunities to develop.

But don't want to.

The other party was also using the same method to numb his nerves.

The preparations for a general attack were already made the moment the opponent provoked the war!

The location of these five crystal towers, connected together, seems to have vaguely surrounded his territory and stronghold. It is as if for the mysterious castle owner, he is already in his pocket!

fortunately.

He discovered it in advance.

Cheng Shen was worried and expanded the search scope to check carefully for a while.

As expected.

Further away he found five more crystal towers.

These crystal towers have been built for a longer period of time, and they are already full of energy and can be activated at any time.

Not to mention the increase of these crystal towers to Storm Castle units.

Just around each crystal tower, there are hundreds of monster units gathered.

The total force reserve of ten crystal towers,

That’s close to seven thousand!

This is a number that would make even Cheng Shen feel powerless in a frontal battlefield!

Previously, whether it was a small reconnaissance force he faced or a large force he thought he had.

They are just appetizers for the real war...

"His grandma's..."

Cheng Shen licked his lips unconsciously.

Temples, mines, castles and deserted villages, based on their location, will undoubtedly increase the difficulty of exploration in sequence, but the difficulty increase span of the Storm Castle is too different...

"Not entirely..."

Thoughts flashed in Cheng Shen's eyes.

Just talk about the difficulty of exploration.

In fact, these three power points should be said to have their own merits.

The difficulty of exploring the temple ruins mainly lies in the extraordinary person.

If he hadn't just mastered the formation to restrain his ability, once he was allowed to escape and get a chance to regain his strength, the trouble he would face would not be that small.

Not to mention the difficulty of exploring the mines.

Without some means, he wouldn't be able to get in at all, let alone face the terrifying pollution monsters and various taboo methods in the sacrificial temple.

In comparison.

Although Storm Castle has accumulated a strong foundation over the years.

But on the contrary, he is the most normal opponent at the same level as him in the true sense...

The unexpected situation delayed Cheng Shen for some time.

But his plan remains unchanged.

at the moment.

It is basically certain that Storm Castle is ready for a general attack.

But Cheng Shen didn't know how long it would continue to be arranged securely. Judging from the location of the first crystal tower he discovered, Cheng Shen estimated that it might have to build the third circle of crystal towers.

.

Just as stable as an old dog.

But he didn't want to wait that long.

After seeing the layout of Storm Castle, he realized that his so-called development was simply a small change in the tree. The Musketeers he had worked so hard to cultivate was not as good as the crystal tower he spent ten minutes building on the opposite side.

Extremely ridiculous.

Ending the battle directly with the power of thunder is his only chance of winning!

Whoosh!

The leaves were passing by his ears, and Cheng Shen arched his body and quickly shuttled between the dense tree crowns.

Along the way he also saw many monsters on their way.

But no one took action.

Until a castle surrounded by thunder and lightning appeared in front of him.

Boom!

Click!

…

A cloud lower than the sky shrouded the dark castle. Within the clouds, thunder surged and rolling thunder bursts. Thick lightning struck the ground continuously, turning the area around the castle into scorched earth.

There are no walls around this castle.

But the natural minefield is the best protective barrier.

Cheng Shen stopped at the edge of the minefield. The tree trunks beside him were charred black, and a strong smell of charcoal was exuding. The surface of the bark was emitting high temperatures, and weak arcs of electricity could be seen flashing from time to time in the cracks.

Cheng Shen could feel the numbness coming from his exposed skin.

If he doesn't have the super negative resistance of a lord-level creature.

I am afraid.

At this moment, it has become a lightning rod.

"The lightning energy is extremely abundant..."

Cheng Shen stretched out his hand, and lightning intertwined in his palm. Compared with the mine, this place was two extremes.

Other elemental energies are basically expelled by the lightning element.

but.

This is also good news.

Thunder and lightning is a special element produced by the fusion of fire and light elements. It still retains some of the characteristics of the light element and has a strong restraining effect on the elements of darkness and abyss.

Since the thunder and lightning elements here are so abundant, at least Cheng Shen does not have to worry about the threat of pollution from these two elements hidden in Storm Castle.

"There are not only violent elemental fluctuations in the minefield, but also scattered spiritual energy...

Even the protective barrier is also an airtight investigation network."

Cheng Shen was thoughtful.

He retreated into the forest, searched for a moment, and suddenly jumped up and grabbed a gray-scaled venomous snake disguised among the leaves.

Cheng Shen directly pinched seven inches of the venomous snake and threw it into the dense minefield.

Click!

The moment it entered the minefield and before it landed, a bolt of lightning fell from the sky.

It was immediately crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Cheng Shen hid in the tree canopy and waited patiently. In less than half a minute, he saw a group of soldiers wearing silver light armor and full protective helmets walking out of the main entrance of the castle and rushing all the way to the place where the poisonous snake died.

One of the soldiers picked up the charred body of the poisonous snake, and the other seven quickly dispersed into the surrounding forest, inspecting every inch.

"Really vigilant..."

Cheng Shen said secretly.

However, he had considered in advance that with the cautious character of the castle owner, he would not ignore this anomaly. This minefield can be called a forbidden zone for creatures, and surrounding creatures will never appear in the minefield for no reason.

Especially at such a sensitive time...

Cheng Shen had no doubt that the eight soldiers in front of him were even decoys. The owner of the huge spiritual energy that controlled the minefield had already focused its attention on this place.

After thinking for a moment, he carefully retreated to the rear.

Boom!

Not long after he left, a dense thunder suddenly landed in the forest in that area.

It gradually spread in the forest, and then quickly extinguished into a charred forest for some unknown reason.

The corners of Cheng Shen's mouth twitched slightly.

He always calls himself cautious, and this time, he seems to have met his opponent.

"Since teachers come from the same school, let's see who is more skilled."

He thought with great interest.

Immediately.

Cheng Shen took out a set of silver-white heavy armor from his backpack.

Immediately afterwards, he took out a metal skeleton that had lost its energy core.

This is the complete remains of a Stormtrooper.

Stormtrooper.

It is a more high-end alchemical creature than the petrified ancestors, but its forging skills are more inclined to mechanical puppetry rather than alchemical puppetry. It is also different from the biological puppetry involved in the flesh demon puppet.

Cheng Shen has not yet been able to recreate the Storm Warrior's energy core.

but.

He has another way to make it move.

Stab!

He directly cut the artery, and blood spurted out, but fell regularly on the metal skeleton. Then he inserted energy crystals into each joint of its joints with precise and rapid movements, and carved rune veins.

Construct a demon puppet!

A rune structure more complex than a four-ring rune was immediately formed.
